My Little Pokémon: Grander World

Celestia's Mind.

Deep in her mind, Celestia was floating, her eyes closed, her body hurtling through a vast and empty expanse of whiteness, completely alone. All around her, darkness loomed, only occasionally punctuated by bursts of multicolored light as if someone were setting off fireworks inside her own head.

Her body was still suffering on the outside, the heat being that great and overpowering, preventing her from recovering Thus, she was in this still state, floating in her mind. But she was not alone in this silent space. Her eyes were half-closed as she looked up to see the visage of her alter-ego. Daybreaker.

The Daybreaker within her had appeared, looking down at the Sun Princess. "Morning, sunshine. Look at you." Daybreaker spoke. "At your absolute weakest. It's a wonder that the world hasn't perished already, the way things are going."

"Ngh..." Celestia groaned even in her mind, looking at her Alter-ego who would fly around her.

"The last time something like this happened was when Ghetsis attacked. Absolutely defeated and in a terrible state. Feels like history repeating itself in a way, doesn't it? But unlike back then with Ghetsis, everything is on the line here. And right now, you don't have the strength to do anything. Or rather, you lacked that strength from the start." The fiery alicorn grinned.

Celestia glared at her alter-ego with those weak eyes, having no response or the strength to respond. And as Daybreaker circled around her, she continued to talk down to the Sun Princess.

"But then there's me. I've always been a part of you. Your true inner strength. Much like how Nightmare Moon was always a part of Luna, just waiting to emerge. Of course, unlike Luna, you've always done an amazing job at maintaining yourself. Most likely, Nightmare Moon was brewing within her when she was still a filly, waiting for her to snap. But with you, I'm rather recent. Recent by 4 years actually. The same as when both worlds became one." Daybreaker smirked before laughing.

"..."

"Ever since Ghetsis appeared and critically injured you on that day, the first sign of true weakness from you showed itself. And from that, I was manifested within you. In fact, ever since the World of Pokemon met our own, I've been growing. The threat of Empress Twilight, Second Wind, the Dread League and so on. All these rising threats have been oh-so pressurizing, haven't they? And through all of that, you constantly contained yourself. Until recently..." Daybreaker got closer to Celestia, pointing her hoof directly at her.

"Not only that, but eventually, you have to deal with the threat that is Prisma. One of your closest friends is a potential threat to this world as well. Tragic, isn't it?" Daybreaker snickered as Celestia spoke for a moment.

"Ash..."

"And even then, stopping Prisma won't be the end, right? Who knows what else is lurking out there? Threats from other regions being a possibility, more that come from other universes, some that may still be lurking in Equestria. Old threats may even rise up, such as the fabled Grogar. But maybe I'm getting ahead of myself with that one. This is all far too out of your calibre, isn't it? It's becoming too much to handle for someone like you. The peace you've managed to maintain for so long is seeing less and less time to stay around."

"...I"

"Daybreaker, the one, not me, was right. She was held back by her old self and as soon as she let her go, she became stronger than ever. And it shows, doesn't it?" Suddenly, Daybreaker's flames would erupt behind her, painting this vast expanse with an orange blaze, setting everything on fire. "You know what has to be done, right? Go beyond and accept me. Fight Fire with Fire and absolutely obliterate her."

"..." But Celestia did not respond to that. She simply looked down with sadness and weakness in her eyes, all the while, the area was surrounded by this great blaze. Her body was suddenly restrained by Fire Chains that materialized out of thin air, wrapping around her hooves and neck.

"You're weak. Far too weak. I'd say you've reached your limit. If you truly want to maintain peace, ensure that nothing like this ever happens again, accept me and become Daybreaker. You will become the strongest. No one will stand in your path and you can always guarantee that you will be at the top. Celestia's far too weak now to stop this or anything else that comes before it. But as Daybreaker..."

"I...won't." But even then, Celestia refused to become Daybreaker as well. As powerful as she may be, she wanted to keep her kindness, no matter the costs. She may have lost to Daybreaker, but she refused to stoop to her level and become like her.

"Hmph. Sticking to your ideals? How pathetic." Daybreaker scoffed at this, the flames around Celestia intensifying. "You say all that, but look at you. You can't even find the strength to break free. Eventually, you'll give in and only then, will you become unstoppable."

Alola. Poni Island. Altar of the Sunne.

Over at the Altar of the Sunne, Twilight was still in the middle of trying to open an Ultra Wormhole, all while the fleet of Spitfire were approaching here, ready to interrupt them. The only ones who could stop this were Rainbow Dash, Pikachu and Fluttershy. They would have to make sure that Twilight gets this thing opened as fast as possible before they even think about intercepting anyone.

"Now is not the time..." Rainbow Dash grit her teeth as Castform would fly out of his saddlebag. "Castform! Stop those ships with Hurricane!"

"Cast!" Castform cried out as he spun his small body to conjure a massive storm above. "Form~!" His body stopped spinning, resulting in the summoning of an enormous cloud above. With this great hurricane summoned, the winds blew tremendously, becoming so strong that it managed to push back the fleet that was heading straight towards them.

Spitfire noticed the strong winds and knew where this was coming from. And she wasn't going to allow Castform to interfere with their plans. "Don't let him stop us!" She ordered the solar empire, hoping to move forward through the violent winds.

But as they pushed on, they felt the gales intensify to the point they couldn't even fly in a straight line. If anything, it made them go off course, struggling to do anything else. This allowed Rainbow Dash to smile, feeling the power of these winds. "Alright, that's the way! Keep it up!" Rainbow shouted to Castform, getting ready to take action.

"Tch..." Spitfire kissed her teeth, annoyed at this. "Your counterpart in this universe is just as annoying as ever." She said to the Rainbow Dash a part of this fleet. The other Rainbow Dash didn't say, merely scrunching her face while continuing to fly her face.

The Hurricane was certainly an obstacle for the ships, but they weren't about to let it stop them. Their ships would activate their engines, pushing past the Hurricane at full speed.

"Pikaa...Chuuu!" But that's when Pikachu came in. The Mouse Pokemon leapt into the air, his red sacs flaring with lightning as he would charge up a Thunderbolt. 100,000 volts of lightning came flying out of his body, hitting the Hurricane and adding his power into it. Due to this, a Thunder Hurricane was born.

The Hurricane was now more erratic than ever, spreading lightning everywhere which would interact with the ship's wiring. And by doing so, it caused a few ships to malfunction while also being carried by the Hurricane. The ships would malfunction while also being launched away by the fierce winds, taking some Solar Guards with them.

"Nice one, Pikachu! Great idea!" Rainbow Dash said to him. It was only natural since he shares a lot of Ash's wild approach to battling. "Let's do it again! A second Hurricane!"

"Castform!" Castform would unleash another Hurricane while this Thunder Hurricane was still active. Pikachu would use Thunderbolt once more, combining the two Hurricanes, making a far larger and much more threatening storm. More and more ships were being held back, some being flung elsewhere and others completely shutting down due to all the electrical interference.

With the amount of ships being held back and taken out of commision, they had a good chance to keep Twilight focused on opening the Ultra Wormhole. Some ships were still remaining, keeping their distance from the Thunder Hurricane. Spitfire was not about to have her ships get taken out so easily like that. She would glare at the duo who are keeping her group at bay.

"So you want to play that game?" Spitfire growled as she took action. Her ship was far more special than the others since she was the captain. From the ship, she unleashed what appeared to be an ordinary cannon, but the energy fired from it looked to be condensed light. The condensed light travelled rapidly, meeting with one of the Thunder Hurricanes, promptly dispersing the winds with one strike.

After dispersing the first one, the cannon shot condensed light towards the remaining Thunder Hurricane, dissipating it before it could do further damage. The moment the winds died down, some of the Solar Guards flew past it, descending onto this area.

The ships would open up, the ponies inside leaving it and appearing before Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. There, Spitfire, Universe 11's Rainbow Dash and other ponies set foot on this Altar.

"Our second time meeting and you're a nuisance yet again." Spitfire said to Rainbow Dash. "And of course, you just had to appear here before us as well, didn't you?"

"Hm. Too slow." Rainbow Dash taunted her with a wide and cheesy grin.

"What's she doing?" Universe 11's Rainbow Dash looked at Twilight Sparkle, noticing how she was attempting to open up an Ultra Wormhole.

"Whatever it is, it could ruin our chances of getting Solgaleo for Queen Daybreaker. Right now, we're sitting pretty since Lunala's been absorbed." Spitfire smirked

"What?!" Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy collectively gasped in shock. "Lunala was..."

"Yep. By Necrozma himself." Spitfire chuckled. "That just leaves Solgaleo. After all, when he joins them, Necrozma will regain his power and finally be complete again. Or you know...absorb the entire universe and fully restore himself. That'll do as well once he absorbs Solgaleo next."

"You're lying! There's no way Lunala got absorbed! You're just trying to scare us!" Rainbow Dash objected to it.

"Come on, Rainbow Dash. I'm not your Spitfire, but even you know when I'm telling the truth, don't you?" Spitfire questioned, raising her glasses and looking Rainbow Dash dead in her eyes. Rainbow Dash grit her teeth, seeing her expression which said it all. She wasn't lying for even a moment.

"S-She's not lying..." Rainbow Dash stuttered, surprising Fluttershy. Indeed, Spitfire was telling the truth. Lunala had been absorbed. And now all that was left was Solagaleo. If that happened, Necrozma would be potentially unstoppable.

"Glad you know. So, if you don't mind, step aside. We're getting Solgaleo." Spitfire ordered. "But knowing you, Rainbow Dash, you'll be defiant as always, trying to retaliate. That's what she tried to do back then." The captain of Daybreaker's Aerial Forces looked over at Universe 11's Rainbow Dash, drawing attention to her.

The Universe 11's Rainbow Dash simply looked at Fluttershy and her counterpart, who was also known as Rainbow Dash. They would stare at each other for a brief moment with blank faces. It only lasted a short while, but she turned her head away from the two, having nothing else to say.

"Obviously, she came around, but I know for a fact you won't. So I'll make you step aside." Spitfire would take out a Poke Ball. The same Poke Ball thatined Xurkitree.

"Hm!" Rainbow Dash was more than ready to have Castform or any of her Pokemon try and stop them. But just then, to her shock, all of Solar Empire Troops here would hold out their own Poke Balls, shocking Rainbow Dash. "What the?!"

"Surprised? We all decided to catch Pokemon of our own. But only to further Queen Daybreaker's plans. And since I have Xurkitree, you can only imagine what everyone else has.

"Y-You don't mean...!"

"That's right. They're all Ultra Beasts!" Spitfire declared, tossing her Poke Ball into the air. With that, she threw the ball forward, opening and releasing her Xurkitree. Upon summoning him, it appeared with its wires extended, touching the ground and connecting him to the earth below. All the other Poke Balls showed different Ultra Beasts, most being of the same species.

The Ultra Beasts that showed up here are Nihilego, Celesteela, Buzzwole and a single Pheromosa. To see so many of them come out to play is something Rainbow Dash knew would be overwhelming. Ultra Beasts are incredibly powerful and now she was face to face with so many of them. She and Fluttershy were about to have the fight of their lives.

"Last chance. Step aside." Spitfire snickered a bit, seeing how intimidated they looked.

"You wish." And yet, they did not surrender and would try and get through this. Rainbow Dash looked at Fluttershy, knowing that the two of them would have to work together to hold these guys off, no matter the amount of Ultra Beasts there were. After all, Twilight Sparkle wasn't done yet. Not in the slightest. She would try to continue to open up a Wormhole.

Twilight heard all of this while focusing on opening the wormhole, letting out a light gasp as her friends were facing a large threat. But she couldn't stop now. All of them had to focus on their objective before anything else. This meant that even if things seemed bleak, it would be fine. She had faith that the others would protect this area so that she could continue.

"Get them. Xurkitree! Use Discharge!" Spitfire ordered, prompting the Ultra Beast to make the first move. But that's exactly what Rainbow Dash was waiting for.

"Now, Fluttershy!"

"Mhm!" Bayleef! Quickly, Fluttershy threw a Poke Ball into the air, summoning Bayleef. As soon as Xurkitree unleashed a flash of lightning that ran across the ground, approaching the duo, Bayleef's Fate-Changling Leaf kicked in, a chunk of the leaf on her head coming off and touching Fluttershy's face.

Right as the electricity was about to hit, a white flash went off in Fluttershy's eyes, changing fate as the direction of the lightning was reversed, shooting straight towards the Solar Guards and Ultra Beasts. The attack was sent back at them, causing them to jitter as their bodies were hit with a ton of volts. It wasn't like the Thunder Hurricane but it was still powerful enough to cause some damage.

"Nice! Now, Castform! Use Hurricane!"

"Form!" Once more, Castform would use Hurricane, whipping up another strong whirlwind in an attempt to fend off anyone from getting close. "Cast!" As his body spun around, the winds blew at tremendous speed, once more pushing off Spitfire's group who just got up after suffering that direct Thunderbolt.

But this wouldn't stop them and they would push themselves through." "Why you...Xurkitree! Use Power Whip!"

The Wire Pokemon whipped his electrically-charged tendrils of lightning at Bayleef, moving past the Hurricane and going straight for the Grass-Type.

"Audi! Use Protect!"

"Audino!" Shielding her from harm was Audino, who placed a green barrier between them, protecting them from the electrical whips. They made impact with the barrier, bouncing off from its sheer force and being unable to touch her or the rest of her party.

"How about this then?!" Rainbow Dash held out two Poke Balls, throwing them out and summoning Mienshao and Altaria. She needed some more muscle to keep them away from Twilight since the Ultra Beasts were as durable as they were tough. The only exception being Pheromosa, who was noticeably staying back, untouched by the recent attacks. This Pheromosa simply stared at the scene.

"Mienshao!"

"Altaria!"

"Altaria! Ice Beam on the ground!"

"Tari!" With the call for the attack, Altaria opened her mouth and unleashed a bright beam of ice-cold energy aimed straight at the ground beneath her. A trail of frozen spikes followed where it touched down, quickly travelling through the earth as it spread apart. Spread throughout the area, the Solar Empire Soldiers stepped back before a large portion of the ground was encapsulated by ice, spreading everywhere in seconds. Some of them took flight before it was too late.

"Get them, Buzzwole! Use Hammer Arm!" Three ponies shouted.

"Buzz!" Along came some of the Buzzwole, flying in midair due to their wings while holding up a fist with blue-and-black veins bulging through the skin, showing how powerful those muscles of theirs are.

"Mienshao! Close Combat!"

"Mien!" Knowing that the Buzzwole were physically stronger than her, that wasn't going to stop Mienshao as she had one massive advantage over them. Speed.

With blinding speed, Mienshao zipped across the area, appearing behind one of the Buzzwole, striking it with her arm-furs before disappearing again. She reappeared near another Buzzwole, landing several hits on it before once again disappearing. And then, she struck yet another Buzzwole with an open palm strike, kicking up dust in the process. The Bug-Fighting types couldn't react fast enough to keep up with her speed.

"Celesteela! Use Zen Headbutt!"

"Use Power Gem, Nihilego!"

The Celeestela and Nihlego attacked, one summoning an array of gemstones that flew in, attempting to bombard Mienshao and Castform. "Chu...Pika!" But also came Pikachu, swinging his tail and striking at the gemstones with Iron Tail. As he did, this allowed his friends to quickly attack.

"Thanks, Pikachu! Altaria, use Hyper Voice!"

"Altaaaaa!" Opening her beak, Altaria let out a melodic voice with great intensity, the sound waves hitting the gemstone hard. This created cracks along them before they would break entirely, shattering the gemstones to bits. But that didn't stop the Celesteela as one of them smashed its head into Altaria, causing her to cry out. "T-Tari!"

"Xurkitree! Thunder!" Spitfire yelled out as Xurkitree shot bolts of electricity from above, manipulating the clouds. Rainbow Dash, Audino, Bayleef, Pikachu, Mienshao, Castform, Altaria and Fluttershy were all targets. Bayleef's ability kicked in once she sensed the danger, promptly removing one fo the leaves on her neck. The leaf would touch the back of Rainbow Dash's neck once the bolt came crashing down.

Fate was changed once more, causing the Thunder to miss, hitting elsewhere.

"That Bayleef...!" Spitfire growled, knowing that Bayleef was a massive problem thanks to that Fate-changing ability. It didn't help that her leaves could regenerate under the sun, so she could theoretically change fate infinitely as long as she was enough time to regenerate.

"Audi! Use Hyper Beam!"

"Au...Di...!" Audino held her hands out, charging up energy as a bright beam shot straight for a group of Nihilego. "No!" A few of them were unable to evade this attack as they were hit by it, fully engulfed by the blast that sent shockwaves. Naturally, Audino needed time to recharge, leaving her vulnerable.

"Hey! What are you doing standing around for?!" A pony said to her Pheromosa, who was the only Pokemon not moving during all of this. Pheromosa stayed completely still, simply looking at all of them.

"Celesteela! Use Earthquake!"

Along came a devastating Earthquake as the Celesteela would slam its body into the ground. The earth trembled at the might of its power as everyone felt it. With how fast and sporadic the earthquake was, many had their feet shaken beneath them as they fell on their backs. Not even Audino could maintain herself as she was also knocked on her side.

"Power Whip!" Spitfire took full advantage of this as Xurkitree leapt into the air, swinging its whip-like arm at Altaria, smashing against her face with ease as she was too weakened to react. The Dragon-Flying Type was knocked away from the blow.

"Alta!" She cried out from the powerful strike.

"Mien!" Mienshao attempted to rush towards Altaria, but this is when three of the Buzzwole would grab a hold of her, grabbing her furs and arms and slamming her straight on the ground. The trio would pin her to the ground, making sure she wouldn't get away from them. But this wasn't going to keep her down for long. "Sh-Shao...!" The moment her legs touched the ground, she kicked off.

The speed was so great that it was like an after-image. This caused the Ultra Beast to blink, surprised by what they saw.

"Mienshao! Acrobatics!"

"Mienshao!" Using the opening, Mienshao landed a flurry of punches on each Buzzwole that grabbed her. One strike, two strikes, three, four, five! All were fast, causing the three Buzzwole to jitter from the blows before being thrown back in succession. They hit the ice on the ground, bouncing off the slippery surface and crashing into one another, unable to fight any longer.

"N-No way!" The ponies who had sent out the Buzzwole were taken aback by this. Once they were down, Mienshao appeared on the ground, catching Altaria who was falling straight into her arms.

"They do seem to have an advantage in the speed department." Spitfire observed, noticing that Rainbow Dash's side mainly had a speed advantage. They had Pikachu and Mienshao to thank for that. Even Castform was faster than all the other Ultra Beasts here thanks to this size and Spitfire knew each of Rainbow Dash's Pokemon were fast. The only exception being Altaria.

The only Pokemon fast enough to compete with them was Pheromosa, who did nothing, but Spitfire still had something to change this. "Do it now."

"Right, Captain! Nihilego! Trick Room!"

"Niiiii..." A large glyph would appear on the battlefield, changing the layout of the area. Within seconds, those that were faster would have their speed shifted and the same goes for those that were slower. Pikachu, Castform and Mienshao felt their speed drop suddenly, their bodies pulsating for a moment.

"Pika?!"

"Trick Room...!" Rainbow Dash snarled while Spitfire smirked. Sure, Altaria, Bayleef and Audno would be faster now, but the ratio of slow Pokemon was greater on Spitfire's side and now they were all faster than most of the group. So now things were a bit more evened out. And with these Ultra Beasts' power, it could easily give them an edge over the others.

"This will be fun!" Spitfire laughed, feeling good about her situation now.

"Celesteela! Use Zen Headbutt!"

The Celesteela charged its head with energy and aimed itself at Mienshao. Despite seeing it coming, she couldn't do anything about it as the massive beast shot forward. In a split second, she was smashed away from the attack. The Fighting-Type hit the ground hard, forming cracks from the sheer weight of the impact.

"M-Mien!" She grunted, feeling the force of that heavy body.

"Power Gem!"

Each of the Nihilego would fire gemstones of energy, attempting to rain them down on Fluttershy. Not only would this attack harm her, but if they broke the ice, they'll get close to Twilight and she couldn't let that happen. "Chu~!" Pikachu leapt out in front of her, using Iron Tail and smashing at the gemstone to redirect it. Even if he was slower now, he could still keep up somewhat.

However, more gems came raining down, pelting Pikachu as they started pelting Castform as well, who was unable to dodge them even with his small size. The hail continued as there appeared to be no end to this assault. Pikachu did his best, spinning his tail around as he blocked a few attacks. But one stone came straight through the opening, hitting him on the face and shattering into tiny shards. "Pikaa!" The Mouse Pokemon cried out before getting blasted once more by several gems.

"Excellent! Now, use Thunder, Xurkitree!" Spitfire commanded as Xurkitree used Thunder while flying above, unleashing a thunderstorm of lightning onto the area, attacking Mienshao, who was still struggling from the prior blow. Castform tried to protect himself from the attack, but it was impossible due to how much area of effect was there.

"Use Protect, Audi!"

"Audino!" Audino quickly put Protect up once the electricity came her way as she just managed to shield herself in time. But after the first Thunder was blocked, Xurkitree immediately unleashed a second one on the barrier, causing it to crack under pressure. After a while, the force was too much as it shattered. That left Audino vulnerable and in shock, her eyes dilated.

"Not good...If this keeps up...!" Fluttershy said with worry in her voice.

"It's not over yet!" But Rainbow Dash wasn't ready to see this end. "Trick Room or not, we can still win this."

"I doubt that. Finish them off at once! Thunder!" Spitfire called for this to be over. With her shouting at Xurkitree, all the other remaining Ultra Beasts would combine their ranged attacks into one.

Celesteela fired beams of light via Flash Cannon. Nihilego shot gems while Xurkitree unleashed yet another burst of lightning. Each attack came flying in, ready to finish this battle once and for all. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy looked at each other before looking back at the attacks which would connect.

A fierce outburst of energy occurred, the explosion being great enough to reach Twilight who was still focused. Spitfire smirked seeing the attacks connect, believing that she had defeated them or at least, greatly weakened them. But at that moment, two voices spoke while the explosion went on, saying the same thing.

"Mega Evolve!"

With a beautiful flare, Mega Energy would disperse the explosion, revealing Mega Audino and Mega Altaria.

"What?!" Spitfire gasped in disbelief. It wasn't over just yet. However, thanks to that attack, Castform had fainted as well as Bayleef, who had yet to recover all of her leaves, groaning in pain.

"Rest up for now, Bayleef." Fluttershy would return Bayleef to her Poke Ball. Rainbow Dash did the same, having Castform return to his saddlebag. Mienshao was noticeably active, still having some strength left in her. Pikachu also appeared to be okay, standing strong without a problem.

"Pika...!"

"Well, I shouldn't be too surprised." Spitfire sighed. "Either way, you're still slower than the rest of them. So what can your little duo do?"

"!" Up ahead, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy's pupils shrank as they saw more ships in the distance approaching them. The Solar Empire was fully focused on getting to Solgaleo next, so this was only natural, much to the dismay of Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy.

"W-We can't stop all of that!" Fluttershy stuttered nervously.

"..." Rainbow Dash didn't say anything, but her face showed worry. A lot of those ships were heading towards here, so things looked bleak. "Uh...We...!"

"You won't be doing anything. You're strong, but easily outnumbered. Enough pressure will get to you and I can apply as much of it as possible!" Spitfire cackled, spreading her wings and taking flight, looking down on the two of them. The number of ships in the distance looked to be at least 30 and this was just one wave showing up. The amount of troops heading their way would be tremendous and no amount of teamwork could stop them forever.

And yet, they were going to try their best.

That is until it happened. Right as the Spitfire was laughing, Pheromosa finally made a move, kicking a Celesteel and a Nihilego in the back without then noticing, moving at high speeds. "Mosa!" With just one kick, it knocked the two of them out, shocking the others. This Pheromosa even moved fast enough to kick off an invisible barrier which would appear where its foot would touch.

"H-Huh?!"

"W-What the?!"

"Phero!" After kicking them down, Pheroosa then struck another Celesteela, knocking it to the side as the force of its kick also sent some of the ponies flying.

"What do you think you're doing?!" Spitfire yelled at the Pheromosa, who immediately responded by leaping into the air, spinning its body around like a wheel and going straight for her, only for Xurkitree to block the attack. Pheromosa would then leap off Xurkitree, performing a backflip and landing stylishly. Despite the Trick Room still being active, it still had some speed to spare, being so slouch.

"Uhh..." Rainbow Dash uttered, tilting her head.

"It's turning against them?" Fluttershy said with a confused tone, wondering why this was the case. Then it hit her. "W-Wait! Do you recognize us?! Are you one of the Pheromosa we helped get back home?!"

"Mosa." Indeed it did. In fact, this Pheromosa was among the many Pheromosa that showed up here, causing a ruckus but were promptly dealt with by Rarity's Pheromosa. It remembered them all, knowing that they were Pheromosa's friends. And because of that, it was naturally on their side, staying silent the entire time and only striking at the right moment, which was now.

"You sneaky little...!" Before Spitfire could finish, it happened.

An Ultra Wormhole had formed at last. Twilight had enough time to finally unleash an Ultra Wormhole with her magic, surprising everyone nearby. With this Ultra Wormhole open, everyone stopped battling to look at it. It shined brightly in the sky, letting out its signature sound. Now, it all depends on if Solgaleo was the one to pass through or not.

All eyes were on the hole as they waited patiently. That is until something began to leave the opening of it. "I can't find Solgaleo..." Twilight said, knowing that she couldn't bring Solgaleo with this Ultra Wormhole. She failed to reach him. "But...I can at least do this!" For the sake of her friends, she did something else.

Emerging from the gateway were Pheromosas. Multiple of them. They started lunging out of the gateway, leaving their world and willingly arriving here. Each and everyone of them being the same Pheromosa that once caused trouble here. These were the ones that fought Rarity.

"Pheromosa!" They all appeared, no longer their enemies, but their allies. Every single one had been unleashed, especially the two closest friends of Rarity's Pheromosa. Just like that, Twilight had quickly made things fair for them all.

"I'll try and find Solgaleo again...But I just couldn't let you all take on such odds." Twilight took deep breaths as she willingly brought them here to save her friends, knowing that there was a great need for assistance. The amount of Pheromosa that came out were numerous in number. Far numerous than the ships, at least the first wave. All ready to fight. "All of you...take this battle somewhere else and give me more time."

"You're awesome, Twilight!" Rainbow Dash grinned while Fluttershy felt relieved. "Alright! Let's take this somewhere else and give Twilight all the time she needs!"

And with all these Pheromosas here, it would be easier to pull this off. An annoyed Spitfire almost dropped her glasses because of this, the delay of finding Solgaleo being increased once more. It was down to Twilight to try again, her body pulsating because of how much Rift Energy she used.

She would have to wait and recover before using them again, but it would be worth it. Right now, Twilight was counting on Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and the Pheromosa to give her enough time.

As the journey continues.

Chapter 562 End.
