Many people believe that Celebi is the mythical Pokemon controlling time and space, but in fact, Celebi is more about controlling time.
In terms of space, Celebi can't compare to Palkia.
However, in terms of time, Dialga is known as "Little Celebi!"
Celebi's time travel can even alter causality, provided there is enough powerful energy to support it.
The principle behind the creation of the Dark Ball actually uses Mewtwo's power, which is why it can be stronger than the Master Ball, even capable of seizing other people's Pokemon.
However, the method and information for making the Dark Ball were destroyed by Mewtwo, and it's unclear where this guy named Iron-Masked Marauder got the information.
Moreover, the Dark Ball he holds is an improved version, capable of not only forcibly capturing Pokemon but also enhancing and strengthening them, making them under his control.
The original version of the Dark Ball could forcibly capture Pokemon with a 100% success rate, but once released, the Pokemon would still act according to their own will, which means it could only capture, not control.
The new Dark Ball combines capturing, controlling, and enhancing into one, far surpassing the original version.
Of course, for Ash and Mewtwo, this is not good news.
If such a thing could be mass-produced, even without controlling Celebi, the whole world would plunge into chaos!
So today, it is not Iron-Masked Marauder who wants to leave them, but they who want to leave him behind!
This guy is an evil person more capable of causing chaos than Giovanni!
"Celebi, show these guys your power!"
"Bi!!" Celebi let out a piercing cry, and the shockwave visible to the naked eye spread out, blowing the entire forest into disarray.
Pikachu grasped the ground firmly with his feet and wasn't blown away, but Misty and the others were directly lifted several meters away by the exploding shockwave, crashing into trees with painful backs.
If they hadn't trained their bodies by traveling with Ash regularly, this blow might have given them internal injuries.
"Mewtwo—MEGA Evolution!" In response to the rampaging Celebi, Ash no longer held back and directly let Mewtwo display its most powerful strength, MEGA Evolution!
The colorful light enveloped Mewtwo, and its body became slightly smaller, with a long tail extending from the back of its head.
MEGA Mewtwo Y!
This form of Mewtwo can push its psychic power to the limit, its overall strength comparable to the Divine Realm Advanced Level!
Although Celebi has been enhanced by the Dark Ball, it is not a combat-type Pokemon by nature, being a Phantom Pokemon. Despite its ability to control time, its strength is not outstanding.
With the Dark Ball's amplification, its level barely qualifies as Primary Divine Domain Level. Iron-Masked Marauder thought that mastering Celebi would lead him to world domination—how naive!
At the Primary Divine Domain Level, even with the power of time, it couldn't compare to the Divine Realm Advanced Level Pokemon; it would be lucky to contend even with Intermediate Divine Realm Level Pokemon without powers.
Ash used full power with Mewtwo right from the start just as a precaution, akin to using full strength to hunt a rabbit.
Especially when it's a mad rabbit!
If full strength isn't used to crush it, the damage to this forest would be incalculable.
"MEGA Evolution... that weapon Giovanni created can actually MEGA evolve?!" Mewtwo's MEGA evolution form shocked Iron-Masked Marauder.
MEGA Evolution is a recently emerged phenomenon, whereas the creation of Mewtwo by Giovanni was a plan long in the making.
By any logic, there should be no connection between Mewtwo and MEGA Evolution!
Mewtwo looked coldly at Iron-Masked Marauder. If not for Ash saying to leave Iron-Masked Marauder to him, she would have already squeezed his head until it exploded.
This talk about weapons was infuriating!
Though Mewtwo's temperament had improved considerably after spending time calming down with Ash, it didn't mean she was temperless!
If this were earlier, Iron-Masked Marauder wouldn't even have time to speak before being stomped like a cockroach.
"Swoosh!" Without warning, Mewtwo used Teleport to appear in front of Celebi, raised one hand, and unleashed a massive surge of psychic power to directly control Celebi.
Theoretically, given the vast gap in levels, controlling Celebi should have been a breeze for Mewtwo, but at the instant Mewtwo's psychic power surged, Celebi suddenly vanished right in front of Mewtwo.
Meanwhile, with several quick leaps and bounds, Ash reached Iron-Masked Marauder, tightened his fist, grabbing the robot under Iron-Masked Marauder, and fiercely punched toward him!
He held back some power with this punch, but it should at least knock out a few of Iron-Masked Marauder's teeth.
"Bang!!" Ash's fist hit the empty air, just a hair's breadth from Iron-Masked Marauder.
His punch had been blocked!
And who blocked his punch? None other than Celebi.
The Celebi Mewtwo failed to control appeared right in front of him in the blink of an eye.
"Haha, kid, no matter how strong your physical abilities, you can't possibly compete with a legendary Pokemon, can you?! Celebi, kill him for me!" To catch the ringleader first: in hostile encounters with powerful Pokemon, the primary target is always the opposing Trainer!
Ash's physical fitness far exceeds his own, though the true power of Mewtwo is still unknown, considering it's regarded as Giovanni's ultimate weapon, now even MEGA evolved, it must not be underestimated.
