Chapter plot[]
The Elite Four watches the battle field collapsing, as Kyogre and Groudon continue fighting. Ruby and Courtney use the Red and Blue Orb to stop Kyogre and Groudon, but nothing happens. Ruby's Mumu and Courtney's Ninetales use Muddy Water and Hyper Beam on Kyogre and Groudon, to take their attetion. Per Courtney's advice, Ruby has Mumu attack Groudon on its belly. Courtney sees Ruby's skills have improved during the training on Mirage Island. Ruby sees this is the place where Ruby took out the grand meteor with Sapphire. Suddenly, Ruby's glove and sleeve get ripped, as the orb changes his arm. Courtney warns him not to get distracted, but she also gets her arm changed.
However, she thinks they may use their conditions right now, as they attempt to control Kyogre and Groudon. With a wave of their hands, Groudon and Kyogre stop fighting. However, they attack Courtney and Ruby. Groudon tries to get into the cave, but is pushed back by Mumu. Mumu uses Endeavor, retaliating against Groudon. Courtney sees Kyogre will attack Ruby, so pushes him away and gets hit by the rubble. Ruby tries to help her, but is pushed by Groudon. Courtney thinks she isn't suitable because the Orb didn't choose her to be the host. Suddenly, Rayquaza arrives to the scene. Courtney explains this is the third ancient Pokémon, Rayquaza, who roams the skies. She knows about it from data from Mossdeep Space Center.
Rayquaza fights against Groudon and Kyogre, but Courtney notices someone riding Rayquaza and knows who that is.
