After obtaining the Red Orb, Maxie attempted to use its power to awaken Groudon and transform the world. Unfortunately, things would take a rather unexpected turn for him as the orb emitted a bright red glow that began to transform his body. To his shock, his hips and thighs began to swell and expand, along with his chest, rump, and stomach, and thick orange fur began to spread across his body. As these changes took place, he felt his body temperature, but at the same time his gifted intelligence began to decrease. And before he knew it, the once proud leader of Team Magma had been completely transformed into a plump and chubby Camerupt woman, stripped of all his masculinity along with his intelligence.
