Pokémon: Starting From Zero as a Legendary Pokémon

Without the constraints of the game, Sora could experiment alongside Ogerpon—adjusting variables bit by bit.

Energy… and emotion…

His greatest advantage—Was that he never had to worry about Terastal energy.

Because he had Victini.

Whenever the masks ran out of energy, Victini could instantly replenish them.

His stamina.

His mental strength.

Ogerpon's fatigue.

All of it—

Was within Victini's ability to restore.

"Thousands of attempts… nearly a hundred times collapsing from exhaustion."

And that wasn't Ogerpon—

It was Sora.

Just as he had suspected—

Ogerpon's true trait, Embody Aspect, wasn't rooted in the masks themselves—

But in the resonance between her and the one who understood her.

In the end—

He succeeded.

Ogerpon had unraveled the secret of Embody Aspect—

And carved out an entirely new path for Terastallization.

One of a kind.

Not standard Terastallization.

Not even the so-called Stellar Terastal form.

But something uniquely hers—

A crystallized resonance of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

"I…"

Volcanion was completely dumbstruck.

What is this supposed to be?!

Ogerpon, to him, felt like some bugged-out existence that shouldn't exist.

Is your Pokémon even legal?!

Changing attributes with masks was already outrageous.

Getting hit by Scary Face and becoming stronger instead of weaker?

And now—

You're not even pretending anymore.

Terastallization?

What even is that?!

Is this still a Pokémon battle?!

He just wanted a normal fight—

Not a clash with a literal monster.

"So strong…"

"Too strong!"

"This is Boss Ogerpon's true power?!"

"What a beautiful form!"

"It's breathtaking!"

The watching Pokémon were utterly captivated by Ogerpon's fourfold Terastallization.

No—

Even a single Cornerstone Terastal had already left them in awe.

Everything she displayed—

Completely shattered their understanding of battle.

"Good… Ogerpon…"

Sora's voice trembled.

Maintaining four simultaneous Terastal states—

Placed immense strain on his mind.

"Ponii…"

Ogerpon glanced at him, worried.

If she could choose—

She wouldn't want him to bear this burden.

But Sora didn't waver.

Pokémon fight for their trainer.

And trainers—

Stand with their Pokémon.

He couldn't take her damage—

But the mental strain?

That, he would carry.

"Go."

"Fight with my share included."

"Ponii!!"

Ogerpon's resolve had never been stronger.

The Ivy Cudgel formed in her grasp.

The gray Cornerstone Mask shone brilliantly—

While the other three masks radiated prismatic light.

Energy surged from them—

Flowing into the Cornerstone Mask—

Then into her weapon.

Although four masks existed simultaneously—

When attacking, Ogerpon would choose one.

Not because she couldn't combine Water, Grass, Fire, and Rock—

But because splitting attributes diluted the amplification.

Rather than four partial boosts—

It was better to concentrate everything into one.

In Pokémon mechanics—

If any two of the following match—

Original type, Terastal type, move type—

The move gains a 1.5× boost.

If all three match—

It becomes 2×.

But what was Ogerpon's "original" type?

Grass?

Not necessarily.

Because each mask changed her typing—

Grass, Water/Grass, Fire/Grass, Rock/Grass.

In theory—

All of them were her "base."

After Terastallizing—That remained true.

And that led to the first advantage of her fourfold Terastal state:

Any move—Water, Grass, Fire, or Rock—

Always fulfilled the full condition.

Guaranteed 2× boost.

But the real advantage—

Was this:

She wasn't Terastallizing once.

She was doing it four times simultaneously.

So what happens then?

One Terastal = 2× boost.

Four Terastals?

2⁴ = 16× amplification.

That meant—

Even a simple Energy Ball—

Could be magnified sixteenfold.

And then—

There was Ivy Cudgel.

Already absurdly powerful—

Now elevated to something completely broken.

In this state—It could ignore attribute limitations.

Meaning—It could combine types at will.

Water + Fire.

Grass + Rock.

Any mix.

Though—

Mixed attributes were mostly aesthetic.

Colorful, flashy—

But inefficient.

Still only a 2× boost.

The true power—

Came from focusing on a single attribute.

Grass.

Rock.

Fire.

Water.

When Ivy Cudgel became any one of these—

It received the full Terastal amplification—

Just like Grass.

"…Right now…"

"I'm unbelievably strong…"

Ogerpon gripped the towering cudgel—

Wielding it as if it weighed nothing.

"Even if a god stood before me—"

"I'd strike it down!!"

"You've got to be kidding me!"

Volcanion was genuinely terrified.

For the first time in years—

It felt death looming over it.

"Don't you dare get close!!"

It couldn't allow Ogerpon to unleash that power.

No more waiting.

Water and Fire energy surged—

Condensing above its head into a massive sphere.

Its ultimate move—Steam Eruption.

The distance between them—

Over thirty meters.

It would complete the attack—

Before she could reach it.

"Now fall!!"

A tidal wave of blue energy surged forward.

Everything in its path—

Stone, earth, trees—

Reduced to dust.

Unlike before—

Where the explosion spread in all directions—

This time—

All its power was focused into a single point.

Its target—

Only one.

That shining, terrifying figure—

The monster that now made even Volcanion feel death closing in.
