DP129: Difference between revisions

Samuel shows the entrance to the temple on a screen, revealing a figure whom Ash recognizes as Hunter [[J]]. Brandon tells Maria and Samuel about J, also telling Ash and friends that he is here to do research on the legend, which has basis in fact. As Ash presents the idea of stopping J from catching Regigigas, [[J's henchmen]] see the Pyramid and inform J. J orders her henchmen not to let the Pyramid get near, and they send out a virtual army of {{p|Metang}} and {{p|Skarmory}} to attack the Pyramid with {{m|Sludge Bomb}} and {{m|Flash Cannon}}, respectively. One of the engines is hit, forcing an emergency landing. Brandon, Maria and the gang leave in a small airship, while Samuel stays to repair the Pyramid's motor. The henchmen notice the small craft, and order their Pokémon to attack, but the gang is saved by {{AP|Pikachu}}, who uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Skarmory, and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, who uses {{m|BubbleBeam}} on the Metang. After defeating the Pokémon, Brandon, Maria, and the gang run into the temple.

Meanwhile, J has reached the three pillars and sends out {{TP|J|Salamence}}, commanding it to destroy them with {{m|Hyper Beam}}. The ice and rock pillars are easily destroyed, and, just when Salamence is about to destroy the steel pillar, Brandon yells for J to stop. Maria explains that awakening Regigigas is a bad idea, but Salamence destroys the steel pillar anyway. A small blue ball between where the pillars once stood has begun to glow, but, other than that, there is no sign of Regigigas' awakening. J commands Salamence to use {{m|Flamethrower}}, much to Brandon's dismay. Suddenly, a triangle on the floor that had connected the pillars begins to glow, and Regigigas appears, immediately using Hyper Beam on the temple's walls and ceiling. J prepares to turn Regigigas to stone, but Regigigas stops her with Hyper Beam, forcing Salamence to counter it with {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. J retreats while Regigigas goes on a rampage. As the temple starts to collapse, Brandon sends out his {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regirock}}, {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regice}} and {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Registeel}}. The golems save the gang from being buried in falling rock by using {{m|Focus Punch}}, {{m|Zap Cannon}} and Flash Cannon, respectively. The gang escapes, protected by the golems, right before the temple collapses into a pile of rubble. Just when Brock notes that Regigigas cannot escape the rubble, it suddenly breaks out, still shooting Hyper Beam in every direction.

All four start to attack the mountains with Hyper Beam. Brandon tries to stop them, failing. He then tries to return his golems to their Poké Balls, but they are not responding to him at all. Regice then turns on Brandon, using Zap Cannon, but Brandon is able to dodge it. Dawn notes that the four Regis seem to be heading for the city… it could become a catastrophe if they reach it.

The Regis continue using Hyper Beam once in the forest. Team Rocket still has a plan to capture Regigigas, but Registeel blasts them off using Flash Cannon. Back by the temple, Piplup tries to chew through the web binding Dawn while Brandon, Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} struggle to break free of their ties. Brock, stricken with love for Maria, tells her that he is happy to be with her and he would never let go of the web that tied them together. Dawn questions Brock's timing as being completely inappropriate due to their situation, but then {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} comes out and uses {{m|Poison Jab}} on him; the attack breaks the web and Ash and Brandon commend the pained Brock on his quick thinking. Soon free, the gang is back in the mini-airship. Brandon checks in with Samuel, who says he needs more time to finish repairing the Pyramid. Brandon tells him to tell [[Officer Jenny]] to be on the alert while he catches up to Regigigas.

Meanwhile, J has gotten ahead of the four legends with her airship, ready with her henchmen to catch Regigigas. When the four Regis reach J, her airship shoots lasers at them, which the Regis counter with Hyper Beam. Afterwards, the airship shoots a liquid adhesive, which bears a striking resemblance to bubble gum, at Regigigas, to trap it. Regigigas is not completely immobilized by the gum, however, and uses Hyper Beam to destroy one of the airship's engines. While dodging Hyper Beams fired by the three golems, J orders her henchmen to get the airship out of Regigigas' firing range. J fires her bracelet at Regigigas to turn it to stone, but Regirock jumps in front of the blast to protect it and is turned to stone instead. J, frustrated, tries again, and again; the blasts are taken by Registeel and Regice instead. J fires the bracelet again now that there is nothing between her and Regigigas, but Brandon, telling Brock to take control of the airship, jumps out and in front of the beam and is petrified instead. Regigigas catches him before he can hit the ground. Before J can fire again, Pikachu and Piplup use Thunderbolt and BubbleBeam respectively. Salamence unleashes Dragon Pulse at the airship, but Regigigas, breaking free of the gum, deflects the attack back at Salamence, breaking J's bracelet. J prepares to attack with another Dragon Pulse, but is interrupted by her henchmen who say that her client canceled the deal. She and her henchmen leave the area immediately. Maria apologizes to Regigigas for letting them awaken it, and asks it to save Brandon and the golems. It agrees, using {{m|Hidden Power|its powers}} to unfreeze them before returning to the form of an orb.
