I haven't decided on a name for my Pokémon trainer yet.

At this point, Dream couldn't help but look at Ye Feng and ask, "By the way, aren't you from another world? You seem to know a lot about elves, but you don't know them either?"

Ye Feng shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's an elf that hasn't been discovered yet."

How can we explain that in Ye Feng's previous life, elves were merely beings in games and anime? This is probably not good news for elves, so let's just gloss over it.

"By the way," Ye Feng looked at Gardevoir, raised his hand and grabbed the mysterious ring, "Mew, take a look, isn't this Hoopa's scoop ring?"

"Lao Lao Huan? That name is quite fitting..." Meng Huan muttered to herself, and Ye Feng couldn't help but smile.

Dream looked at the ring, circled it carefully for a while, and then widened her eyes: "This really looks like Hoopa's... Lao Lao Ring! At least from the appearance, it looks almost exactly the same, if I'm not mistaken."

"Are you sure?" Ye Feng's heart skipped a beat. If it really was true, then what he had just sensed... Thinking this, he immediately told Dream about the distress call and the evil aura he had sensed.

Upon hearing this, Dream frowned, pacing anxiously in the air, muttering repeatedly, "How could this be? How could this be..."

"When Hoopa was sealed, what state was he in?" Ye Feng asked.

"What do you mean?" Dream stopped pacing and looked at Ye Feng with a puzzled expression.

“Um, what I mean is…” Ye Feng organized his thoughts, “was the entire Hoopa sealed away, or was only its power and evil thoughts sealed away, leaving behind a little Hoopa?”

"Little Hoopa? What Little Hoopa?" Dream looked confused. "What are you talking about?"

Ye Feng was taken aback and asked, "How was Hoopa sealed? Wasn't it sealed using the Judgment Jar?"

"Jar of Punishment?" Mew muttered the name over and over, then thought for a moment, "Although it is indeed a pot, it has not been named. Jar of Punishment... seems pretty good."

"Hey, isn't this the time to think about names?" Ye Feng looked at Meng Huanzhen as she pondered, and his face immediately darkened. "So, when you sealed it, you sealed the entire Hoopa?"

“That’s right.” Dream nodded.

Ye Feng fell into deep thought.

It seems that Hoopa in this world is a bit different from the movie version in his memory; the entire Pokémon was actually sealed away.

Originally, Hoopa was driven by human ambition and began challenging legendary Pokémon, which eventually went berserk and its power was sealed by humans.

Later, Hoopa refused the power that had become evil, and the power separated itself and wanted to devour the original Hoopa, which led to a battle of legendary Pokémon.

In the end, thanks to Ash and Hoopa's persuasive words, the evil thoughts within the power were purified...

So why did Hoopa in this world become evil? Hoopa was originally a kind elf.

After asking Meng Huan and learning the reason, Ye Feng sighed heavily.

It seems that no matter what world you're in, there will always be some wicked people.

The reason Hoopa in this world turned evil is actually similar to that in the movie...

"So, is there a problem with Hoopa's seal?" Ye Feng asked.

"I don't know either." Dream shook her head in frustration. "Logically speaking, the seal created by the Arceus Tablets shouldn't have any problems..."

“Arceus himself got into trouble…” Ye Feng whispered.

Dream was taken aback and fell silent, realizing that Ye Feng's words made a lot of sense.

Arceus himself messed up and lost the stone tablets, so it seems reasonable that the seal made from those tablets would also malfunction.

"So, it was actually Hoopa who attacked the Three Sacred Mushrooms and Latios and his sister?" Mew guessed.

“But didn’t you all know Hupa?” Ye Feng objected.

"Uh, yeah..." Dream scratched his head. "Ugh! So annoying, why are you sneaking around like this? If you're so capable, just fight me head-on!"

It seemed that Dreamy was getting annoyed and started shouting.

Ye Feng was speechless. The Three Saint Mushrooms had already said that the shadowy figure's power was incomplete. It wasn't stupid; it wouldn't be foolish enough to come out and confront you head-on.

"Woo~~~" At this moment, Latios and Latias suddenly flew to Ye Feng's side with soft cries and nuzzled him affectionately with their heads.

"Hmm? Your injuries have healed?" Ye Feng tentatively touched Latios and Latias's heads, and after finding that they did not resist, he boldly started touching them with both hands at the same time.

Wow, this feel... Legendary Pokémon are really something else. I don't know if it's just my imagination, but it feels even better than Arcanine's fur.

"Thank you, Ye Feng." Latios thanked Ye Feng telepathically, and Latias reciprocated.

"You're welcome," Ye Feng said with a smile.

The two elves left Ye Feng and began to circle around him happily.

"I need to go check if there's really a problem with Hoopa's seal." Seeing that the two siblings were alright, Dream said this and flew upwards.

"Hey, wait for me, take me with you." Ye Feng subconsciously called out to Meng Huan.

"You're going too?" Mew looked Ye Feng up and down, then at his Pokémon. Its gaze lingered on Gardevoir and Gengar for a moment before it hesitated and nodded. "Sure."

Ye Feng recalled the Pokémon to its Poké Ball, leaving Togekiss behind.

Togekiss was in position, waiting for Ye Feng to come up, when Latios suddenly flew in front of Ye Feng.

"Hmm? You mean... you want me to go up?" Ye Feng asked tentatively.

Latios nodded and let out a joyful cry.

"Uh..." Ye Feng was immediately tempted. Goodness, I just rode Ho-Oh, and now I can ride Latios? Hmm, maybe I can also try out Latios while I'm at it?

Um...maybe we should just forget about it. Tokiss seems really unhappy.

But... Ye Feng looked at Latios. Togekiss always had a chance to ride, but Latios couldn't...

He then looked at Tokiss and gave him an apologetic look.

"??" Togekiss's eyes widened, and then it was sucked into the Poké Ball by a burst of red light.

Chapter 288 The Lingering Regret of the Dead

"Latios, is the Heart Drop truly the crystallization of your souls?" Ye Feng asked Latios on the way.

Latios nodded and then shook his head, and began to explain.

Latios and Latias are a pair of Pokémon born together, and at their birth, a Heart Drop appears with them as their source of power.

Each pair of Latios siblings has a heart droplet that belongs to them.

With the Heart Drop present, the power of Latios and Latias is complete; and since the Heart Drop was born with them, it wouldn't be wrong to say that it is the crystallization of their souls.

Ye Feng nodded in understanding. So that's how it is. The Heart Drop can only unleash its true power in the hands of Latios and his sister. In the hands of other Pokémon, it only has the effect of amplifying the power of moves.

I wanted to ask them how they lost the Heart Drop, but as soon as I asked, they both fell silent.

Ye Feng sensed their gloomy mood, and even some resentment, so he rationally changed the subject.

Latios and Latias flew very fast and frequently used teleportation to move forward; Mew flew a little slower, but its teleportation was more advanced, and it got ahead of the pack.

So teleportation can carry people? Ye Feng had never thought of this before, nor had he heard of anyone else using teleportation to transport others. He had always assumed that elves' techniques and magic were different...

Ye Feng secretly rejoiced that he had gotten on Latios's back; otherwise, with Togekiss's speed, he really wouldn't have been able to keep up.

...Let's go back and get Togekiss a new flavor of Energy Cube. The easiest way to deal with a glutton is to deal with its mouth.

Ye Feng didn't know how long he flew; he only remembered heading west, then turning south, and finally arriving at a place he didn't recognize at all.

Moreover, because he was moving so fast, Ye Feng didn't have time to observe how far he had traveled. He only knew from the roaming information displayed on his phone screen that he had left the territory of China.

Beneath my feet lies a vast desert... Wait, why is it a desert again?

Hmm, perhaps it's because the desert is sparsely populated, making it more suitable for placing the seal? If it were in a human-inhabited area, it would be easily discovered and destroyed. Ye Feng secretly speculated.

After flying through the desert for a while, Dream finally came to a stop.

"Have we arrived yet?" Ye Feng asked, pulling up his collar. The desert was incredibly hot during the day.

I didn't feel it much while flying, but now that we've stopped, I suddenly feel hot all over.

"Hmm." Dream nodded and looked at the ground.

Ye Feng followed its gaze... It was all sand, making it impossible to distinguish anything.

Dream fell towards the ground, and Latios quickly followed.

Upon reaching the ground, Dream stared intently at a completely empty space.

Ye Feng dismounted from Latios's back, stepped onto the soft sand, looked around, and finally looked at Mew: "What's wrong?"

"There really is a problem." Dream's tone sounded heavy, and Ye Feng couldn't help but frown... He couldn't see anything wrong.

Dream stretched out her hands and drew a peculiar symbol in the air. Ye Feng keenly noticed that the symbols in her left and right hands together looked like the ring on Arceus's body.

Good heavens, this Mew isn't just some random guy, it's a real powerhouse! It even controls powers related to Arceus?

As the symbols were drawn, a halo appeared out of thin air in front of the dream, shimmering with colorful light.

At the same time, Ye Feng felt the ring in his arms tremble. He quickly took it out and found that the ring was flashing a faint blue light.

Could Hoopa still be here? Otherwise, why would the ring react? Ye Feng wondered.

Dream glanced at the ring, then plunged headfirst into the aperture, which began to slowly shrink.

Ye Feng quickly followed, with Latios and Latias close behind.

···

The scene after entering the aperture left Ye Feng frozen in place.

Ye Feng initially thought this was a secret realm, but it seemed to be just a disguise created using special power. After passing through the light circle, Ye Feng saw a village-like building complex, and further away was a desert just like the outside world.
