Xelos didn't seem overly impressed by this feat, catching the now faster ball between the same tentacles that spawned it and doubling it's size, before tossing it back the way it had come. The virus watched Zerish teleport away, the ball streaking through the air he had been in and striking the earth some distance away. The explosion was quite impressive, to say the least. The ground rumbled violently as shockwaves ripped through it, a massive dome of expanding energy marking the detonation site. The blindingly bright sphere of power slowly shrunk away, leaving a crater hundreds of yard wide in it's wake. Everything within the blast had been destroyed on the molecular level, no visible remains of anything or anyone that had been caught inside, the crater dangerously close to Rai's resting place. The Deoxys sighed at the waste of power and teleported back into Earthstomper's proximity, curious as to how the Torterra would respond.
