My Little Pokémon: Grander World

The Human World. Camp Everfree. Late Afternoon.

Gaea Everfree stood above the Camp, overseeing the entire city in the distance. Her presence was impossible to ignore with how many plants she's summoned. And from this, Gloriosa Daisy felt guilty since Gaea was a part of her. A deep part of her that she created as a false legend, only for it to exist.

"Is this all my fault?!" There was nothing she could do, no one that would be able to save her. At the same time, she knew it would only get worse. "Please, stop. Let's not go through with this...There's no need for us to continue this!" Gloriosa pleaded to Gaea who seemed indifferent to her pleas.

"Your pleas are lost on me. Now silence." Gaea replied before holding her arm out, fixating on the city nearby. With a motion of her arm, the demonic plant life began to fly off to the city, spreading across and planting themselves on the city streets and in the skies above it, where the population would surely spot it.

"No...Stop!" Gloriosa screamed to her, trying to break out of the plant that had her trapped, but it was impossible. She couldn't do anything but watch the events that were to come. That is until something intercepted these plants.

From behind, the students and everyone else in camp began to arrive with the plan set in motion, but it wasn't to be revealed so easily. It would be done so quickly. "What? You?!" Gaea faced the demons, a bit taken aback by what she was looking at. "Oh...? I see you've all fallen to my plants already. Excellent. Although, why would you dare intercept my plants?"

"S-Sorry! Force of habit!" Pinkie Pie put her hands together, revealing she was the one who did so by stopping the demonic plants by freezing them. That caused Gaea to eyeball them carefully.

"Either way, this makes things far easier." Gaea faced them. "With all of you in my control, making the whole world our forest will be far easier than ever." She chuckled while Gloriosa looked in shock and horror. Even her fellow camp counsellors were there. "Listen well, each of you. I have learned that there is another world, beyond this one. It is there, where the greatest source of Magic is found and with that, it is also my goal.

"She found that world too...?" Sunset silently said, gasping. It would be horrible if she targets that world as well, making her even stronger.

"It seems to be the most magic-centric location, much to our benefit. We will still focus on our world first before we set our eyes on it. In fact, all of you will be coming with us on the journey as well. It will make everything so much easier for me if you all were there to support me in this conquest." Gaea was feeling good about this, so she continued to boast. "Now then. Towards the city at once!" She pointed forward as her demonic plant life would go forward to attack.

The campers who had been turned into demons were ordered to go towards the city and take over it. That would allow Gaea Everfree to spread her plants further. But as they were flying ahead, they all looked at each other, knowing the plan and how to execute it.

Each of them raised their arms as many of them were about to use magic for the very first time. They gazed at the city, magical auras began appearing around their hands. Demonic Magic began gathering around them, allowing them to slowly form a Magic Storm. The clouds above would gather into a single point, reacting to the magic.

"I thought this would be way harder but...using magic's easier than it feels." Amethyst Star commented as her and many others began gathering magic with their demonic abilities. It felt far too easy for them.

"It's totally natural." Sunset spoke while helping with this incoming Magic Storm. "After all, we're all counterparts of Magical Beings. This has always been in us, so it would feel natural for us to use this kind of magic."

"I get what you mean! So this is what you and the girls have been using this whole time!" Flash Sentry was full of enthusiasm for the Magic Storm him and the other students were about to make. The power in his hands felt so exhilarating as she kept focusing.

"Well, well, well, now. Look at this! You have a lot of energy built up." Gaea Everfree had not a worry in the world as she was observing this Magic Storm from below. She couldn't see that this was just one big plan. The storm grew bigger, the magic gathering more and more until it all cast a large shadow of various colours across the entire camp and soon the city.

Crackles of magic lightning and thunder could be seen and heard within the storm clouds and then, at that moment, in perfect unison, they did it. They unleashed this Demonic Storm, not on the city, but towards Gaea Everfree. The Demonic Storm descended upon her, moving at great speeds.

Gaea Everfree was stunned by this, her eyes wide and staring at the incoming Demonic Storm. "What?!" Her voice was completely shocked as a huge array of trees would fly forward, attempting to shield her. The trees just barely arrived, covering Gaea, but at the same time, the Demonic Storm hit, the tip of it slipping into the small gap of the shielded trees.

Gaea let out an extremely loud roar as her entire body was hit with a shockwave so strong, it caused the camp to be shaken a little as the sound was that loud. As it kept happening, it became louder and louder with the storm intensifying the more it continued.

From Gaea's perspective, she was trying to take it all in, her body trembling at the incoming power. This Magic Storm was going to destroy her completely. With a harrowing cry, she refused to let this be her end so quickly, not wanting to let them all get away with this. Using the Rift Energy she took and stored within her body, Gaea Everfree created a Rift around her.

In the span of seconds, a Rift appeared right above her as a cosmic beam shot out of the center and struck her, sending out a huge shockwave. The storm's impact on Gaea had stopped and was reversed, causing the Storm to disperse as a large dust cloud covered her.

When the dust cloud dispersed, it would show Gaea Everfree, who was panting heavily. However, despite managing to prevent her defeat from that surprise attack, the Demonic Storm left an impact on her chest and it caused her a lot of pain, some magic seeping out. Her body had been heavily wounded as a result.

"Why you! You conniving little brats!" She coughed, holding a hand to her chest. It hurt a lot more than she imagined it would. The magic was strong. She looked up at the skies, seeing the Demonic Storm no longer around her and gone.

"Rats! That was supposed to be a one-and-done deal!" Minuette groaned as well as the other students. They all hoped to finish it in one strike. But failed to do so.

"Hehe! Nice try! But I refuse to go down so easily!" Gaea grinned deviously. "So much for that plan! And don't let this wound give you hope. I can easily restore this!" She most definitely could. The magic she had would spawn flowers around her wound as it healed her.

"Hm. Did you think we wouldn't have something planned in case that didn't work?" Sunset suddenly smirked, much to the confusion of everyone. "If I were you, I wouldn't have patched up that wound. Not with the magic we left behind in that attack."

Gaea Everfree paused, staring at them for a moment, thinking. "What are you...?" Suddenly, she realized it, looking at the wound she closed up. She didn't just close up her injury, she also trapped whatever magic was still left in that wound in that one spot. "!!"

Before she realized it, it was too late. Her body started staggering rapidly at insanely high speeds, magical shockwaves were seen. It was happening faster than she could imagine, making Gaea feel powerless to stop it. "Nngh!!"

Each shockwave would create a massive blast as a result and the result would be devastating. As soon as her body was hit by one massive shockwave, the next one came in. It kept coming until there was a chain of them.

The shockwaves were so intense, that Gaea could no longer resist the sheer power they carried. This power caused her to let out a scream as her entire body was blown back and smashed against the trees that she was controlling. The magic stored within the plant life soon got caught up in it and caused it all to explode and destroy all the trees nearby, with a shockwave spreading throughout the forest.

"Now's our chance! Use your magic on her again!" Sunset pulled her arms back before thrusting them forward, unleashing a stream of magic at Gaea Everfree's body as she was completely immobilized, unable to react in time.

The magic from the other campers flew forward too, all of them trying their best to overwhelm Gaea's body. Each bit of magic was extremely effective at attacking her and damaging her, causing Gaea to scream in agony. She tried to do something to retaliate but couldn't move at all due to all the magic hitting her at once.

The goal was to make her faint and free all those she's captured with her plants. To make Gaea lose consciousness so that Gloriosa could be freed, as well as Timber, who was still with her. "Just a little more!" Sci-Twi pushed a hand forward as she and the rest of the students began putting in as much magic as they could to keep her in check, trying their best to overwhelm her and make her faint.

"N-Not like this!" But Gaea once again proved to be resilient. Using a combination of the Gem Dust and the Rift Energy in her body, Gaea was able to let out a massive shockwave which threw them all off her, breaking the connection with all the magic that was going against her.

Everyone was pushed back by a cosmic shockwave that rippled across the sky. They all hurled or slid across the sky, hitting a barrier Gaea Everfree created in order to protect herself from their magic.

"Hah...Hah..." She breathed heavily once more, using more Rift Energy than she thought she would. Her entire body was in agony and her heart was beating a thousand times per hour, a lot faster than normal. She tried to keep it cool and focused, looking over all the campers she was facing. "I would be lying if I said that wasn't clever, but that won't work! Dragapult!"

Emerging from one of the plants was her Dragapult, her only known Pokemon outside of all the other Pokemon she's managed to take control of from the forest. The Dragon Type flew around her body and kept it in place. She looked to all of them, breathing heavily with a vicious snarl on her face, having her branches grab a nearby plant that had more Rift Energy around it.

From the other plants, all the Grass-Types Gaea Everfree had taken control of would be summoned, but they would all be supported my magical wings made of leaves that were constantly glowing with her dark energy. It allowed them all to float. Gaea had enough energy to take on all these kids and even the two principals at this rate. "Heh. You aren't the only one with numbers, campers."

"Great. So that didn't work either. What now?!" Trixie questioned the situation.

"Oh, it worked. She may have pushed it back, but she's still in pain." Sunset thought otherwise. "And besides, you can't use Rift Magic too much, otherwise your body will fail on you for a long time. Gaea Everfree might figure that out the hard way. And besides, we still have two more demons to come and help us soon."

"You'll pay for this! Get them!" Gaea ordered all of her Pokemon and all the grass type Pokemon she's managed to take control of as they flew at all the students.

The students would try and distance themselves, not really wanting to hit the Pokemon. So, they would play it passively, focusing on keeping their distance. But it wouldn't matter, Gaea would still give chase. The sky was a wild frenzy of movement, magic flying, and a multitude of plants, trees, and Grass-Types swarming the entire area.

Gloriosa watched it all occur and her eyes were filled with sorrow, watching these kids struggle in this battle, fearing what was about to happen to them all. She wanted to do something to stop Gaea, but what could she do when her mind was trapped in her own body?

Back at Camp, Adagio, who had gotten some rest to recover, spotted the scenario happening in the distance, as well as her sisters. They looked out the window, witnessing the franticness in the air.

"Wow..." Sonata pointed at the conflict, spotting her. "They're al flying! I bet they feel so great being able to use magic!"

"Doesn't look like it. It looks like they're trying to avoid battling them. At least in the air." Aria pointed at the chaos and all of the magic and grass that was going off. It would be crazy to try and avoid all that.

"We're going." Adagio narrowed her eyes. "That Gaea Everfree wants to mess with me? As if I'd let someone get away scot-free like that without any form of consequence."

"If you ask me, Red blowing her away like that was enough. Your knight in Shining Armor~" Sonata nudged Adagio's arm with a cheeky grin before having her entire face palmed by her older sister.

"What are we waiting for? Let's hurry out there already." Aria held out one of her Poke Balls, ready to swing into action.

"Hold on. Instead of just having her Pokemon help us, let's do something extra." Adagio smirked, holding onto the pendant she had. "If they all want to transform into magical beings, wouldn't it be thematic if we did the same?"

"Hm? Are you saying we should become our true forms again? I don't know...They'll freak out if they see large Sirens just flying around." Sonata shrugged.

"Not at all. Another magical form. The same forms we took on during the Battle of Bands, but way more polished and fresh. If they want to tap into that innate magical power, let's sow them how it's done, girls." Adagio would begin harnessing the power of her pendant as her sisters held theirs as well. All three were in agreement of taking on their own magical forms for this, just for the sake of it.

To activate this power, they had to sing as the trio began humming together in a gentle harmony. Their pendants began glowing and in the span of seconds, the light enveloped their bodies, causing the trio to begin transforming into a new form that would match their inner magic, that was linked to the Equestrian Magic deep within their hearts.

They gained glorious wings, matching the ones they had as Sirens but with a more grandiose design. Their bodies were surrounded by the most dazzling of light as the trio became far more dazzling in appearance than before, looking almost as if they were royalty. Since tey were harnessing this magic out of a good place unlike last time, there was no corruption of the magic or darkness around them. They had it under control as their voices echoed across the entire area.

In this transformation, Adagio, Aria and Sonata were garbed in their original clothing designs that were vastly improved on, a sign of them maturing with their powers, looking like something they would wear in the future, representing their potential and growth as they had it on. They each looked more graceful, as well as regal as they began flying out the door.

"Hm. This feels much better." Aria commented while soaring through the air. "Why didn't we think of this before?"

"Don't know. But it's wonderful!" Sonata twirled around in the sky before taking flight alongside her sisters as all three were now magical beings, the power surging through their bodies. Adagio would gaze out to see Gaea and the chaos happening, now knowing what needed to be done.

As the conflict intensified, eventually, some of the campers would descend, mainly Sci-Twi, Sunset, Fiery and Rainbow Dash. They descended just to send their Pokemon out against the Grass-Types, wanting to battle them the old-fashioned way. Once down, all four of them had their Poke Balls out, throwing them.

For Sci-Twi, she summoned her Alpha Rapidash into the fray. Sunset and Fiery both brought out their Pyroars while Rainbow Dash unleashed her Staraptor.

"Now that she's this weak, I say we all focus on those trees of hers. They keep showing up!" Sunset Shimmer suggested as Sci-Twi was right next to her. "Maybe she needs to focus on the Rift and all the energy she's drawing out from it in order to make all of the demonic plants she keeps using."

"Whatever it is, I say we burn it all down!" Fiery exclaimed as she generated fire in her hands.

"Well, it's really the best option. Fire is the way to go. Rapidash! Use Flamethrower!"

"Dash!" Sci-Twi gave orders as the Fire-type would open her mouth wide and let loose a large, wide blast of fire from it that approached the opposing Pokemon. The Grass-Types would fight back, however. The Sawsbuck would leap into the air, releasing a mass of vines from its antlers which lashed out in rapid strikes.

Rapidash used her own hooves to protect herself from the vine attacks. It took her a few tries before she broke the vines apart, making a few more to wrap around the Pokemon.

"Pyroar! Use Noble Roar!" In unison, both Sunsets spoke to their Pyroars, prompting them to attack at the same time.

"Py...ROAR!" The Male and Female Pyroar both unleashed mighty and majestic roars from their maws that made all the Pokemon feel paralyzed in fear. A powerful aura spread across their bodies that allowed the flames on Pyroar's neck to spread over the entire body, as if they were fully engulfed in an explosion.

A powerful force blew the Grass Types back and allowed the two Pyroar's to close the gap that quickly. This left the opposing Pokemon wide open, allowing Rainbow Dash to capitalise.

"Go for it, Staraptor! Use Aerial Ace!" With that shout, Staraptor flew high into the skies with blinding speed and dove down towards the opposing Sawsbuck, moving at rapid speeds with great force, cutting right past its body and creating a strong impact on the grassy body. It then approached a Cacturne and a Shiinotic, unleashing the same attack.

The Grass-Types were knocked aside by this coordinated effort, allowing Sunset's group to advance, approaching the many trees and plants up ahead. Fiery was more than ready to blast the plants and trees, building up a ton of fire in her hands. Rainbow Dash had something similar, manifesting lightning bolts in her hands as they both looked to the others for an idea. "Ready?" Fiery asked her.

"Definitely!" Rainbow Dash agreed as the duo pulled their arms back before hurling them forward to send the energy towards the plants in a single beam. However, the beam was soon deflected by a magical barrier that manifested, sending it elsewhere. This barrier was put up by Gaea. Or more specifically, Gloriosa Daisy, using her magic as a substitute.

She looked down at the two of them as the other two girls with them watched and observed the battle in the skies and down below. "Well. Look who's trying to ruin my day." She gritted her teeth before glancing back to see the students in the air and confronting her Pokemon.

Speaking of confronting, a controlled Gloriosa Daisy would step forward, facing the four of them as a strange aura manifested around her. "Miss Gloriosa!" Sci-Twi came to a screeching halt.

"Make yourself useful, Gloriosa. Battle on my behalf." Gaea ordered her. The green-haired counsellor, whose mind was now under Gaea Everfree's control, was quick to respond. Her body moved without hesitation or second thoughts. The girl held out five Poke Balls, challenging them. "Deal with this if you can."

Following Gaea's orders, all five Pokemon would be unleashed. Gloriosa's Pokemon consisted of both Water and Grass-Types. Gogoat, Sunflora, Azumarill, Simipour and Ludicolo respectively. They all landed before her and gazed at the group, ready to do what was asked of them.

"Snap it out, Miss Gloriosa!" Sci-Twi pleaded, but it was no use. Right now, Gloriosa was feeling weak-minded due to her thoughts. Since she blamed herself for letting all of this happen, it was easy for Gaea to overtake her. With this factor, she ordered her Pokemon to attack, prompting Sunflora and Sunblora to come in their direction, firing seeds and petals.

"Use Flamethrower!" Sci-Twi, Sunset and Fiery collectively said as the three Pyroars would unleash flames to counter the projectiles coming at them, blocking their paths before blasting forward in order to melt through the petals and seeds that were approaching. They did it, but it left the group vulnerable to Gogoat, who charged at them with Stomping Tantrum.

Gogoat rammed into both Pyroars, the one female getting flung while the male tried to push him back with a tackle, only to be tossed aside by a second attack.

"P-Py!" The two of them cried out, hurtling through the air and tumbling on the ground.

"Rapidash, use High Horsepower!"

"Ra!" Rapidash would charge at Gogoat, ready to meet it directly. Gogoat leapt forward, its head clashing against Rapidash's, trying to push against her with its head and horns. Rapidash's hooves were pushing against the ground with great strength to resist Gogoat. While Gogoat had impressive strength, Alpha Rapidash managed to overpower it with sheer physical might, flinging the goat to the ground with its head before backing away to the group.

Just then, Azumarill and Simipour had both leaped from the skies above and dove at Fiery and Sunset with their bodies covered in water. Simipour used Aqua Tail while Azumarill used Aqua Jet, with the two of them diving at them. Both Rapidash and Staraptor would be hit, Staraptor receiving an overhead smash from Simipour while Azumarill crashed into Rapidash, both Pokemon hurled towards the group with super-effective damage.

Topping it off was Ludicolo, who used Leaf Storm as the attack spread in all directions, blowing in their direction while Simipour used Hydro Pump. All four Pokemon were hit and were blasted towards the trees behind them, with Rapidash and Pyroar smashing against them and Staraptor getting pinned.

"Yikes...She's tough!" Rainbow Dash admitted with sweat appearing on her head, gazing at Gloriosa's Pokemon that surrounded her and the group.

"But she's not unstoppable." Sci-Twi adjusted her glasses. "I can try and break her free from Gaea's control. I just need a good chance to reach her. You guys try to hold back those Pokemon for as long as you can, please.

"Will do, can do." Sunset said before her Pyroar roared at them, unleashing a Noble Roar as a powerful force of fire came towards the Pokemon. As it was about to make contact, Sunflora jumped and twirled through the air before unleashing a Petal Dance, using it to surround her body, spinning faster and faster with a magical pink energy surrounding her form, with a white-hot flame engulfing the Petals.

When she came crashing down on the ground, it would leave a crater and a huge wave of flames spread, going straight for Sunset's Pyroar who took the brunt of it with great pain. Sunset would then use her magic, pouring it into Pyroar to make her stand up.

Simipour would unleash a massive surge of water at them all. Fiery, who was quick to react, was able to send her Pyroar to try and resist it. Pyroar took the surge with great pain as she held on to the best of her ability, being able to hold back. Rainbow Dash then summoned a bolt of lightning, using it cut the water in half, greatly weakening it.

Sci-Twi would take flight, heading straight for Gloriosa Daisy. Staraptor would have her back, using Air Slash from above to prevent anyone from stopping Sci-Twi from making it, blasting all of Gloriosa's Pokemon and holding them back while they struggled to deal with all four of them, being unable to fight all of them at once, being outnumbered.

Gloriosa ascended, snarling at Sci-Twi as the two would meet in the air. Gloriosa instantly attacked her, but Sci-Twi flew to the side, narrowly avoiding the attack "Miss Gloriosa!" She bellowed to her. "Can you hear me?! I'm going to try and-"

"Shut up!" Gaea bellowed from far away, causing Gloriosa to release an even stronger shockwave. A fierce array of thorns flew towards Sci-Twi, forcing her to attack them. Beams of magic flew out of her hands, zapping the thorns one at a time with precise control, being able to dodge or hit them as they approached.

"This is all my fault...!" Gloriosa clenched her hands, lowering her head as the thorns intensified their strength. They would become much more durable, much more aggressive and more difficult to handle. "Because of me, all of this happened..."

"It's not!" Sci-Twi used more powerful beams to fend the thorns off. "We don't blame you for anything!" She could see it in Gloriosa's eyes. She was distraught by it. It was easy for Gaea Everfree to take over her body when Gloriosa's mind was already clouded with guilt.

"Yes, it is my fault! I should've never started that legend...I should've just given the camp up from the start!" Tears began streaming down the woman's eyes, as a result, Gaea Everfree felt an intense headache and all the grass around the forest began withering in a split second, as if the plants were all suffering with her, reflecting her emotions. "Gaea's just a part of me. A part of me that's wanted this deep down for a long time, because of it."

Her emotions resonated with the plants, making them stronger as a gigantic flower formed behind her, looming over her, trying to crush her, but Sci-Twi's eyes shined brighter with purple, zapping the plant's roots so they wouldn't be able to support it properly and let it crumble. Seeing tat Gloriosa was beating herself up with this, making her magic stronger, Sci-Twi was prepared to finish this in one go.

She put her hands to her chest, gathering all the magic she could from within. She used that magic to fly right to Gloriosa with a big burst of speed that even took her off-guard, blasting Gloriosa away as Sci-Twi looked directly into her eyes, grabbing Gloriosa by her hand, pulling her close. "Please, don't cry anymore. None of that. We don't blame you. It wasn't you. This isn't the true You. This is someone else's work."

"Huh...?"

"While it's a part of you, it only happened because of the Rift. Whether or not you are to blame at the end of the day, we can fix this. I learned that our own mistakes can be fixed. Whether by ourselves or by the help of someone else. So let me do that for you, if you can't do it yourself."

Gloriosa's eyes widened. The magic of the plants tried attacking Sci-Twi, only for Sci-Twi's magical aura to be a shield. Gloriosa paused for a moment as her tears dropped some more. However, the plants would back away, showing the pure emotions in her tears, as she would wrap her arms around Sci-Twi's body in a tight hug, crying on her shoulder, her voice breaking with emotion.

Sci-Twi used one hand to gently hug Gloriosa back as well, holding onto the woman who needed someone's hug. The other hand used magic to protect her, and Sci-Twi. The aura spread through Gloriosa's entire body and allowed her to see inside her body with her magic.

She would look straight at the Rift energy and try to focus it, allowing her to break Gloriosa's connection to Gaea. And Gaea felt it, her body staggering from this, her head ringing.

"Gagh!" Gaea held her head, feeling the connection drop dramatically as her powers began weakening. All of the plants surrounding the area would stop and fall, wilting on the ground, making a lot of people relieved that it was over.

Gaea Everfree held onto her head and looked in Gloriosa and Sci-Twi's direction. "That meddling little..."

"Don't look at my students like that." A voice spoke to Gaea from above, forcing her to look up. Hovering over everyone else were Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon, finally showing up at this moment, but they weren't the only ones.

Gaea spotted Adagio as well as the other sirens that had arrived, Aria Blaze and Sonata Dusk, with Adagio's new form in all of her glory as well.

"Hmph! We were gonna make a dramatic entrance. You stole our thunder by showing up at the same time." Adagio crossed her arms at Daybreaker, who shrugged.

"Sorry~" Daybreaker winked.

Gaea looked at all of them with an aggressive sneer. "You little fools..." Gaea glared at Adagio who was flying by Daybreaker, seeing the three sisters together, especially at a time like this when she was becoming more and more vulnerable. "These numbers don't mean anything while I have the Rift Energy within me. My numbers can still grow from here."

"Actually, they won't." Daybreaker declared as she, Luna and the Dazzlings held their hands out, unleashing a great beacon of magic down on Gaea Everfree. As that magic was unleashed, a symbol representing their Equestrian Magic, which they were using to aid their transformations, manifested above. The symbols, a Sun and a Moon all shone brightly, giving their attack an even greater effect as the magic shot down upon Gaea Everfree.

Gaea felt paralyzed, stuck in place by this beacon of power from them. This was magic at the level of Princess Celestia and Luna themselves, forcing Gaea Everfree to feel weakened. Her entire body felt the pain surging through it. It felt as though something was being torn right from within her body.

And yet, she resisted.

She still resisted, her will to succeed being truly great and admirable. While she couldn't fight back per se, she could actually resist going down, much to the shock of the others.

"Yeesh! What's up with her?!" Aria grit her teeth.

"That's quite the resistance. So much of my magic is being drained." Luna exclaimed, trying to maintain this as Gaea continued to be on the ground with all the grassy energy from the rift flowing right out of her body and into the sky as she tried to maintain herself.

"Indeed. However, there is one more problem she has to worry about." Celestia smiled.

And that problem was from within. Within the biggest tree she had, Team Rocket's Dynamic Dragapult Dealer had entered. Using its many functions, it managed to phase through the barrier protecting the Tree, all because it had temporary intangibility. But present inside were also Ash and Red, who hitched a ride to enter here. They were about to attack Gaea from within.

"Alright, you two. Hurry and get this over with already! We've got money to make!" Jessie said to Ash and Red.

"Got it!" Ash said as he and Red hopped out of the machine, prepared for maximum damage. But of course, there was one more obstacle in here waiting for them. Dragapult herself. She had phased through the tree barrier, allowing her to appear and confront them.

"Dra! Dragapult!"

"We're gonna finish this pretty quickly. Ready, Red?" Ash looked over at his Counterpart. Red simply nodded. "Then let's get started!"

With a quick toss, Red summoned Charizard once more as he and Pikachu stood side by side. Pikachu released electricity as it sparked across his red cheeks while Charizard hovered over the ground. Dragapult unleashed a massive Dragon Pulse heading in their direction.

"Thunderbolt!"

"Pika....Chuuuu!" Pikachu responded with a Thunderbolt, generating massive bolts of electricity and unleashing a massive wave of electrical energy. The Dragon-type move clashed against Pikachu's Thunderbolt, making it strong enough to push both attacks away.

It was here where Charizard made its move, with its tail aflame as the orange wings flew through the skies and swung its flaming tail. He smashed his tail against Dragapult's face, sending it soaring down into the ground below. Charizard was able to keep itself steady with the wind, letting itself hover above.

Dragapult tried using its other two heads, using Dragon Breath from their mouths, with a barrage of dragon-fired breath being released.

"Electroweb!"

"Pika!" In response to this, Pikachu would use Electroweb, tossing an orb that soon transformed into a net, using it to contain the breath.

This would leave Dragapult vulnerable, which was what Ash was banking on. Charizard approached with a Dragon Claw, his speed accelerating. "Char!" Charizard's claw grew sharper before unleashing a staggeringly heavy slash to Dragapult, dealing super-effective damage. It wasn't over as Ash followed that up with Iron Tail from Pikachu, hitting Dragapult with both moves.

"D-Dra!" Dragapult was being overwhelmed, unable to keep up for a moment. And here it came. The final blow. The attack that would destroy all the other plants from within.

"Get a load of this! We're gonna call this move, Sparking Inferno!" Ash pointed at Dragapult and so did Red, who was on board for the name.

Pikachu and Charizard used Thunderbolt and Flamethrower at the same time. This combination of two different elements would create an electrical-based inferno of fire that engulfed the entire Tree in the process, engulfing all of Gaea's other plants as the flames spread, engulfing the plants entirely and breaking out for everyone to see. Gaea gasped, witnessing a Sparking Inferno right at her own feet, leaving the trees destroyed in the process, even Dragapult.

The Sparking Inferno expanded to great heights, engulfing all the plants present before soon engulfing Gaea Evefree herself. Thanks to Celestia and the others, she was unable to defend herself or dodge this attack whatsoever. "No...Not like this! You MEDDLING LITTLE...! MY EVERFREE!"

The attack soon died down, allowing Gaea to see the massive plant before her being engulfed in flames and eventually reduced to cinders as she fell back and fell down into her own Tree, defeated as her energy was expelled from the tree. A great explosion of Lightning and Fire occurred, lighting up the late afternoon skies for everyone, even in the city to see.

A truly beautiful sight that matched Fireworks as a teary Gloriosa looked up in awe and sadness. She was happy, seeing them all succeed. But also a bit upset since it felt like a part of her goal had been destroyed. But perhaps, this was for the best as the journey continues.

Chapter 603 End.
