"Shaaaaargh!"
Yveltal's massive wings beat violently, stirring up roaring tempests!
With a single motion, it unleashed its signature move—Oblivion Wing!
The purple-black energy surged forward like a storm of death. Any living being struck would have its life force drained, leaving behind nothing but cold, lifeless stone statues. Some would even slowly crumble away into dust…
"Princess Diancie!!"
Suddenly, Daceleapt forward, dragging the three little Carbink with him!
They positioned themselves before Diancie, shielding her from the incoming deathly energy.
The next moment, Oblivion Wing struck.
The small Carbink collapsed to the ground, their bodies beginning to petrify. In their final moments, before completely turning to stone, one of them looked up at Ash and his friends.
"Mr. Ash… please… protect Princess Diancie…"
"Dace…!"
Diancie's eyes widened in disbelief. She had already been blessed by Xerneas' Fairy Aura, yet tragedy still unfolded before her. She trembled as she gazed at the Diamond Minister and the Carbink, now frozen as lifeless statues.
"Why…? It should be me protecting everyone! Why is it everyone else protecting me instead…"
Tears welled in Diancie's eyes as she buried her face in sorrow.
Ash clenched his fists. His voice was firm yet gentle.
"Believe in yourself, Diancie! Only those with unwavering conviction—those who truly believe in themselves—can summon the Heart Diamond!"
"Pika! Pikachu!!"
Pikachu echoed Ash's encouragement with a cry.
At that moment, the jewel atop Diancie's head began to glow with a dazzling pink light!
At the same time, the pinkish-violet diamond Diancie had given Bonnie earlier resonated in harmony with Diancie's gem!
WOOOOOM!!!
An overwhelming light burst forth from Diancie's body!
At last, she understood the words of Xerneas—the power to nurture life rests within yourself alone. Now, she finally grasped the meaning!
Mega Evolution!
Diancie's body transformed amidst the radiant glow—she had become Mega Diancie!
"Shaaaaargh!"
Once again, Yveltal launched another Oblivion Wing, the deadly aura slicing through the skies!
But this time, Mega Diancie stood tall before everyone, her arms outstretched. Countless violet diamonds began materializing in midair, swirling together before merging into one enormous, glittering crystal.
Diamond Storm!
Heart Diamond!
The colossal crystal clashed head-on with Yveltal's Oblivion Wing.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
The two forces collided with deafening roars, like steel striking steel.
But this time—Oblivion Wing was blocked!
And at that exact moment, Xerneas reappeared!
The rainbow-hued antlers atop its head shimmered brilliantly, releasing waves of Life Energy.
The devastation Yveltal had wrought upon Allearth Forest halted immediately. Trees ceased withering, flowers bloomed again, and the earth itself breathed with renewed vitality.
The sacred life aura also began soothing Yveltal's fury.
Gradually… the Destruction Pokémon lowered its wings. Its rampage subsided.
It seemed the crisis had been resolved. Even Xerneas thought the battle was over.
But Ash had been waiting precisely for this moment. His eyes sharpened.
"Yveltal!"
Serena's heart clenched.
Though she trusted Ash more than anyone, after witnessing Yveltal's terrifying power firsthand, her chest still tightened with fear.
"Shaaaaargh!"
Yveltal's scarlet eyes locked onto the human who dared call its name.

This… was Yveltal's true power.
It had reached nearly the absolute pinnacle—Level 118!
Two whole levels above Kyurem!
"Yveltal, what you seek right now… is a worthy opponent for battle, isn't it? Then let me be that opponent!"
"Shaaargh! Shaaargh!!"
Yveltal's roar echoed in the skies. A mere human trainer dares to challenge me? Ridiculous! Only gods can fight gods!
It was clear—not all Legendary Pokémon could communicate telepathically. But Ash understood its fury regardless.
"What's wrong? Are you… afraid?"
"Shaaargh!!"
Yveltal's wings flared with rage. Human! You dare mock me?!
Ash calmly shook his head. His hand tightened around a Master Ball.
"Come forth, Kyurem! I've found the perfect opponent for you!"
Booooooom!
The Legendary Dragon of Ice emerged.
The chilling aura of Kyurem immediately clashed with Yveltal's overwhelming darkness.
"Such potent Dark energy… far beyond Darkrai's level…" Kyurem muttered, its golden eyes narrowing as it measured Yveltal.
"Shaaargh…"
Yveltal's gaze fixed instantly upon Kyurem. For the first time, it recognized an equal.
"Kyurem, show it your true strength! Enter Black Kyurem form!"
WHRRRRRRRRMMM!
The reactor within Kyurem's tail roared to life, surging with dark lightning. Its body transformed into the fearsome Black Kyurem!
Its power skyrocketed instantly!
Ash glanced back at his friends.
"Pikachu, Sceptile—I'm leaving Serena and the others in your care."
"Pika!!"
"Chaamo!!"
Both nodded firmly.
Ash then summoned yet another ace.
"Come out, Mewtwo!"
BOOM!
Mewtwo appeared, radiating immeasurable psychic might—Level 111!
Yveltal froze. Its crimson eyes widened.
This human… possessed not just one, but two Pokémon rivaling gods!
Even Xerneas approached Ash, its majestic antlers glowing.
"My power is equal to Yveltal's… Level 118. I shall shield this land from the battle's aftermath."
It tapped its hooves to the ground. The forest pulsed with protection.
Ash nodded. Perfect. With Xerneas maintaining the battlefield, he could go all out.
"Kyurem… if you can obtain Reshiram's ultimate DNA fusion, and if we can one day challenge Rayquaza again… then this is the step forward we need. Today… fight alongside me!"
Black Kyurem's eyes flickered with crackling lightning.
It gave a slow, firm nod. As you command.
"Shaaaaaaargh!!!"
Yveltal screeched, its wings whipping up a raging storm.
"Protect us, Mewtwo!"
Mewtwo's eyes glowed. A psychic barrier shimmered to life, lifting Ash safely into the air.
At the same time, Xerneas raised a radiant shield, protecting the forest and halting the shockwaves.
Ash's voice rang out:
"Kyurem—Blizzard!!"
"ROOOOOAR!!"
A blinding blizzard burst forth from Black Kyurem's maw, tearing across the battlefield.
The raging storm collided head-on with Yveltal's hurricane winds.
But…
The overwhelming Blizzard swallowed Yveltal's storm whole, freezing the winds into shards of ice.
The Destruction Pokémon was engulfed in the furious snowstorm, the savage frost lashing against its body with unstoppable force!
