Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game.

After leaving the warm embrace, Zoroark felt a little disappointed, but quickly regained her cool and aloof demeanor.

Xia Chen watched this unfold, smiled, looked away, and ate the [Instant Teleportation] technique fruit.

The long-lost feeling of surging energy flowed through his body. Having had the experience of eating the meditation fruit last time, he absorbed the energy of this fruit very smoothly this time.

Although they ate the fruit, this was only the foundation. To learn teleportation, they still needed guidance from a Pokémon. Naturally, the one responsible for teaching was Gardevoir, the only Psychic-type Pokémon in the team.

Teleportation is a rather unique skill among superpowers, much more difficult to learn than meditation or telekinesis.

However, Gardevoir was a wonderful teacher who explained things in great detail. Under her hands-on, personalized instruction, Xia Chen learned Instant Transmission in half an afternoon.

The time wasn't long. After all, even someone as talented as Goope takes one or two hours to learn a single move, let alone a special move like Teleport.

Xia Chen had reason to believe that this was an invisible benefit left over from his last transformation into Deoxys; otherwise, there was no way to explain his increased talent in superpowers.

However, learning something doesn't mean mastering it completely. There's a level of practice required for each move in Pokémon, and Xia Chen's proficiency with Teleport is only at the beginner level.

At the same time, because his own superpower is not strong enough, his current teleportation can only cover a distance of up to ten meters, and it also consumes a lot of energy.

If we were to use a game as an analogy, it would be characterized by high mana consumption and short casting range.

However, Xia Chen was not discouraged, because this deficiency could be overcome by improving his skills and strength.

In short, Zoroark and the others had already fed them, so the rest was up to them.

After practicing Instant Transmission, Gardevoir naturally bestowed upon him the power of Aura.

In the anime, the use of Aura is very extensive, and mastering Aura is probably not a simple matter.

It's a pity that I don't have Lucario among my Pokémon, otherwise having a mentor would make it easier for me to get started.

I do have one Cynthia; I can ask her for advice next time.

Just as Xia Chen was helplessly preparing to start researching waveguides from scratch, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Gu Leton sparring with Xianbu on the other side of the training room.

This guy is one of the few legendary Fighting-type Pokémon, and Aura Sphere is a Fighting-type move.

Will it have any understanding of waveguide power?

Chapter 262 You were born to be a Wave Guide Hero

[Waveguide power? I know a little bit about it.]

So Leighton twisted his waist, which had just been brutally beaten by Sylvanas, his eyes still looking down on others, his tone nonchalant.

This arrogant demeanor and that familiar phrase "I know a little bit" reminded Xia Chen of a classic TV drama character who knew a little bit about everything.

Hopefully, Gu Leton's slight understanding also means the same thing.

After Guleton had recovered from his recent injuries, the man and the dragon sat down and discussed philosophy.

First, do you know what a waveguide is?

Xia Chen thought for a moment and replied, "It's a kind of mental power that all living beings possess. It's just that some people can sense the waveguide and use it freely, while others cannot feel the waveguide's effect on their bodies."

Therefore, Leighton shook his head.

It's too profound; it can be summed up in two words: spirit.

Xia Chen was surprised, "Mental power? Isn't that the source of superpowers?"

As a superpowered individual, he deeply understands the importance of the mental power of humans or spirits to superpowers.

Therefore, Leighton shook his head again.

Can't you use your mouth for other things besides eating?

Xia Chen suddenly realized that he understood what Gu Leton meant.

In this world, the spirit exists in relation to matter; almost everything that is substantial can be categorized as spirit.

This can be seen in the creation myth of Arceus in Sinnoh.

The Sinnoh Grandmaster created the Space-Time Dragons that control the material world, as well as Giratina, the antimatter, and the Three Mythical Mushrooms that represent emotion, knowledge, and will.

The three dragons each have different attributes, but the three sacred mushrooms are all of the same type: psychic. This represents the close connection between spirit and superpowers.

Waveguides, this indescribable, mysterious thing, it's perfectly normal for it to be categorized as a spiritual phenomenon.

Simply put, the mind is like a brick; if you're unsure about something, you can put it into it and you're almost guaranteed to make a good choice.

Therefore, Xia Chen arrived at the first conclusion.

"If I train my mental strength through meditation, can I also apply it to waveguide power?"

[Not too stupid.]

Perhaps they'd gotten to know each other better, because Gu Leton started joking around with Xia Chen.

Xia Chen was overjoyed to receive a positive reply.

Training one source of energy can affect two abilities, which is double the joy!

With the question of enhancing waveguide power answered, Xia Chen's next concern was naturally its application.

"So, how do I use the power of waveguides to attack or create protective barriers?"

Therefore, Leighton raised his head slightly with a touch of self-satisfaction.

Want to learn? I can teach you.

…………

Thanks to the abundant mental strength he had cultivated over the past six months, Xia Chen's learning of waveguides went relatively smoothly.

By nightfall, he was already able to conjure a wave missile the size of a fist with his bare hands.

The principle of waveguide barriers is similar to that of wave missiles, except that the mental energy used to condense wave missiles is expanded into a curved surface.

To use a more relatable analogy, the difference between the two is roughly the difference between kneading dough and making a pancake. This kind of change is naturally not difficult for Xia Chen, the chef.

However, just like teleportation, the use of Aura also requires diligent practice. So for the next period of time, Xia Chen spent a lot of time with the Pokémon in the training gym every day.

By the end of March, when Mingyi finally obtained the Brewing Light Badge, Xia Chen's teleportation and aura power had also reached a certain level of proficiency.

This is not Xia Chen's boast, but rather a high evaluation from Gardevoir and Guleton.

Specifically, when his body's energy is at its peak, Xia Chen can use teleportation to traverse a distance of over fifty meters, but the cost is that his energy is completely depleted.

The wave missiles and waveguide barriers have also reached an elite level of strength.

It's not that strong, but it's already quite good for Xia Chen, who has only had his superpowers for about half a year.

In fact, just a month ago, Xia Chen's superpower strength was barely at the senior level. The reason for such a huge improvement, Xia Chen thought, was most likely the aftereffect of that transformation into Deoxys.

After all, a piece of pork will leave your hands greasy if you handle it, so it's plausible that some energy would remain in your body after combining with a legendary elf.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to find any other influencing factors.

Besides Xia Chen, the elves' strength has also been steadily improving during this period.

The most obvious examples are Googlos and Spellweaver, two Pokémon that have only recently joined the team.

On the one hand, these two Pokémon are relatively weak and have a lot of room for improvement. After all, one of them was only a few months old, and the other has been in the wild without good resources to grow up.

The second reason, of course, is their "secret".

Based on Xia Chen's speculation and observation, Nian Nian Bao's cheat is most likely related to her talent, because her growth curve is relatively smooth.

The Money Spirit is a bit strange. Its strength has increased in a step-like manner. It may have been at a certain level when it fought Little Dragon in the morning, but it had improved a lot when it fought Sticky Baby in the afternoon.

This growth method reminded Xia Chen of a certain stat allocation system.

However, he still didn't directly ask the elves what their secret was. Although he could now communicate directly with the elves through aura, it wasn't a bad thing to leave them some space.

Besides, asking won't do any good; it won't change how they grow.

Since the original free-range method was very effective, there is no need to change anything now.

…………

The exploration of the evolution of the Money-Gathering Spirit has stalled.

After spending nearly a month in Niangguang City, Xia Chen felt that he had drained all the money-gathering spirits in and around the city.

He hadn't found a new money-gathering spirit for several days.

The number of gold coins in his own treasure chest remained unchanged at 384, while there were more than 900 coins that had not yet been fully transformed.

However, according to Xia Chen's guess, they will not play a role in evolution until they are completely turned into gold coins.

After defeating the gym and spending all my coins, the only reason to stay in Brightlight City seems to be waiting for news of Pipa's secret seasoning.

However, instead of receiving news from Pipa, Xia Chen received a call from someone he had almost forgotten.

The mysterious woman who was with him at Orange Academy planning the [Stardust Operation] was the Cassiopeia.

"Long time no see, Mr. Xia Chen. I wonder if you still remember our promise?"

The Cassiopeia's voice sounded rather melancholic.

Xia Chen coughed awkwardly. He had completely forgotten about it if the Cassiopeia hadn't called.

The main reason was that Xia Chen was really busy after arriving in Niangguang City. There was the evolution of the Money Spirit, the secret of the Strange Tree, and later the capture of Guleton, as well as the practice of Aura Power. Xia Chen was working non-stop and had little time to rest every day.

However, there are still no clues about the secret seasoning, so it's not unreasonable to try and take advantage of the Tianxing team as a stopgap measure.

After all, wiping out the Celestial Star Team was not only a promise he made to the Cassiopeia, but also a way of repaying a favor to Clavel.

He shamelessly replied, "Of course I remember, I've been waiting for your news."

The Cassiopeia on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, then said, "Sorry for the late notification. I've had some things to take care of lately. Are you still in Niangguang City?"

Cassiopeia's apology made Xia Chen a little embarrassed. Was this child really that kind?

With a slight sense of guilt, he replied, "I'm still in Niangguang City. Is there any Tianxing Team base nearby?"

Cassiopeia replied, "Yes, in the Mark Forest northwest of Brewmaster City, there is a branch base of Team Celestial called [Team Celestial Base]. The leader there is a Poison-type trainer named Qiuming."

After a moment's thought, Xia Chen said, "I understand. I'll go tomorrow. Are they available?"
