134 Isn't this... a bit TOO much?

Mordred smiled at everyone and began to glow before shrinking back to his normal self. But there was a difference. His hair was completely white with the tips being black. His crown became thicker but stopped framing his face. In the middle of it, there was a stone in the shape of a moon placed on top of it.

His body seemed to have grown clothes or something as he was covered in this red ninja outfit. His face was still masked by a shadow-like veil and only his golden eyes could be seen. The feeling of chaos and destruction that drifted and clung to his body previously was gone and, in its place, a lively youthfulness sprang to life.

[Much better,] he said while stretching his neck slightly.

"So you have something similar to Machamp's transformation?" Rex asked.

[yes and no. it is a transformation, but it is not limited. His limit is placed both due to lack of strength and because he doesn't have the full inheritance of the legacy. I, on the other hand, obtained the full legacy. That is why I was able to stand against Machamp.

But in the long run, I do not think I will be his match for a simple and irrefutable fact. He is the only pokemon species to inherit 98% of Arceus's power. Naturally, his power is copied, so more than one species can have more than 2%. It is not out of 100% per se. but instead, every species has an opportunity to receive between 0-100% of its power. Some, like Machamp, are incredibly lucky, while others, are not.] he said and looked at the others who didn't have a legacy.

[But the power is sealed and must be brought out slowly. His potential, in essence, is limitless though. And I will need his assistance in order to beat that dog.

But what I don't understand, is why you have a legacy, Rex.]

BOOM!

His words were like thunder in everyone ears. Everyone looked at Mordred with wide eyes, even Rex.

"What are you talking about?" he asked unconsciously. This was too much of a shock.

Mordred nodded as if everything made sense, [exactly what I said. I don't understand why you have a legacy. My inheritance allows me to see the legacy power of other species. Something no other can do. That is one of my many hidden talents. But looking at you now, I am 100% confident that you have a legacy. And a powerful one. Too powerful. But locked. And altered. It is not like our own. And it seems to be linked to Machamp in some way or another.] he explained.

Rex's eyes would widen more if they could. This was a massive reveal for him and Gaia. They had been wracking their brain trying to understand what the problem, or rather, what the anomaly was. And now it's revealed that it's a sort of… mutated legacy?

'Was this God's secret gift?' He asked himself.

>Beep!

It is inexplicable how you are able to obtain a legacy since you were not present when the power was given out. I personally think this has something to do with our creator. In any case, according to Mordred, it doesn't seem to be a normal one but powerful nonetheless. And part of our hypothesis and conjecture is still correct. It indeed has something to do with Machamp. And I am almost positive it will be revealed when Machamp unlocks his full legacy. I recommend you take down that mysterious man as soon as possible. With your current power, it is almost impossible for you to lose. < Gaia said seriously.

Rex was having a headache just thinking about all of this. So, he actually had a legacy power that seemed to be tethered to Machamp. And it was a mutated one at that. This was getting more and more ludicrous.

'Whatever, I can't do much about it even with this new information. It just opened our eyes that much more. Can you bring up Mordred's legacy and non-legacy stats please?'

'Tell me about the ability and the moves please.'

[The ability stops the user from fainting permanently as long as he never falters on his path to revenge. Once he accomplishes his vow; this ability will dissipate. It allows the user to come back from the brink of death even if a single cell is left. It is basically a cheat.] Gaia said with a chuckle.

Rex had to wholeheartedly agree. That was the most busted ability yet. This went beyond even Machamp's ability. you cannot beat him. you WILL eventually fall to his stamina. He shuddered at the mere thought.

[hell's chains are simple; it shoots chains out from the void that completely bind the opponent for 2 seconds. At this time, the opponent cannot move at all, cannot use moves and is afflicted with void burn cutting their attack stat by 75%. Pokémon that have the light typing take double damage, and the binding time is doubled as well. But they are immune to the status effect.

Hell's gate allows the user to summon arms from the void that deal 200 base attack damage. If hit, they will be inflicted with void burn also. light type Pokémon take double damage but are immune to the status effect. This move can spawn arms from anywhere within the user's field of view. fifteen-second cooldown between uses.

Mirage allows the user to turn into an illusion becoming immune to all damage from all sources for 2 seconds. It dispels status effects and heals the user for half of their maximum Hp. But they can only use this 2 times per fight.

Meteor fall allows the user to burn their energy and turn into a living meteor. Damage is 500% but the user takes two-thirds of the damage inflicted to the opponent.

Supersonic flash allows the user to move at 20 times the speed of sound. Attacks during this time are boosted by 150%. Duration is limited to 5 seconds and the user enters a weakened state for 1 minute where he takes double damage.

Spear of injustice is a move specifically used to counter light type Pokémon. If this move touches the opponent, they will have all their stats halved for the remainder of the fight. They cannot be regained by refresh moves. It also nullifies half of the damage from any move that is light-based. Cooldown of 5 minutes between uses. This move is ineffective against all other Pokémon.

Hammer of vengeance. A single Pokémon specific move. Locked unless used on Arceus. All damage against Arceus while using this move deals 1000% damage and applies void burn. The user summons a hammer made of aura that has been tainted with the power of darkness and the destructiveness of a black hole.

Shattered Heaven: Apocalypse is a move that allows the user to summon a meteor with a 3-kilometre diameter. Insta kill to all Pokémon below the legendary tier. Even then, weak legendries will die as well. Nuke class skill. Can only use this move once a month.] Gaia explained.

Rex spat blood.

'This is too much!'

An: Mordred's mini look is in the chapter comments. Now, the way I see it, this is Arceus's fault, he allowed Marshadow the opportunity to harness this much power. think of it as compensation for the inevitable doom that befell the race. after all, what's the use of so much power if you're dead right? So you can't expect anything less. I also tried to somewhat restrict the spamablity of the moves to prevent them from being even more overpowered. As for those who will think this ruins the flow, it doesn't. since he will be training a new squad in every region. so the overall blood pumping battles will always be there. but he will have these utter beasts by his side to not only nurture his next team but to also defeat the big bads of every region. Hope you can understand that! If there is anything wrong with this, you are more than welcome to leave a comment and I will try my very best to either change it or explain it better! Love you all.
