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

“Hupa knows. Although the humans here are guarding me, they are actually very kind to Hupa, especially a little boy and a little girl who often come to talk and play with Hupa.” Little Hupa seemed lost in memories.

“They told Hoopa that what Hoopa did before was actually wrong, so Hoopa already knows he was wrong…” Little Hoopa lowered his head.

Ye Feng and Meng Huan exchanged a glance, both somewhat surprised.

Ye Feng was surprised that there were also those two people in this world, just like in the movie, who took care of Hoopa. But it was a pity that they were probably gone because of the appearance of the Shadow Elf. Ye Feng did see a few children in the crowd at the time.

To Dream's surprise, Hoopa, after shrinking, was not at all the evil creature it remembered.

"Gurgle..." Suddenly, a strange sound rang out.

Ye Feng and Meng Huan looked towards the source of the sound at the same time, and were surprised to find that Xiao Hupa was covering her stomach and turned her back in embarrassment.

"Hahaha." Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh, causing Gengar to spit out the box containing the Energy Cube.

"Hupa, come on, have something to eat," Ye Feng said, taking out an energy cube.

Little Huba turned her head and looked at the unfamiliar object in Ye Feng's hand with a puzzled expression; it looked like food.

"It smells so good!" Little Huba sniffed and couldn't resist flying over.

Ye Feng smiled and handed over the energy cube.

Little Huba took it, smelled it, her eyes lit up, and she swallowed a piece in one gulp.

"It smells so good, it tastes so good!" Little Huba wolfed down the food.

"Don't worry, there are plenty." Ye Feng smiled.

"How can you have something so delicious? Hoopa has never eaten anything like this before." Little Hoopa looked on with obvious enjoyment.

"This is just the regular flavor," Ye Feng said.

Because we didn't know Hoopa's taste preferences, the energy cubes we fed Hoopa were just ordinary flavored ones that hadn't been specially formulated.

"Is there anything even tastier?" Little Huba looked at Ye Feng with sparkling eyes.

“Of course, I can adjust the recipe to your taste,” Ye Feng said.

"Waaah, you're such a good person!" Little Huba was so touched that she hugged Ye Feng's head and rubbed it against him.

So he got friend-zoned? Ye Feng was speechless.

Moreover, Little Hoopa's personality is quite different from what I remember. Is it because of those two children?

"Alright, Hoopa, tell me what happened. Who broke the seal?" Mew floated over and asked.

"Oh, okay." Little Huba released Ye Feng's head.

"Hmm, let Huba think about it." Little Huba scratched his head, and Ye Feng curiously examined Huba's arms, which were detached from his body.

"Hoopa remembers that he was staying safely inside the seal when suddenly a strange hole appeared, and a black elf he had never seen before ran out of it," Hoopa recalled.

"A cave entrance? A black elf?" Ye Feng and Dream exchanged a glance. It seemed that this was the shadowy elf.

"And then?" Ye Feng asked.

"Then, the location where the cave appeared was right at Hoopa's seal, so the seal was broken. Strangely, Hoopa's power possessed the spirit, and the spirit started to go berserk and destroy everything in sight."

"They still came to fight Hoopa, but Hoopa was too weak to fight back. She even lost one of her rings and had to hide. Hoopa didn't know what happened after that."

Hupa's explanation was simple, but Ye Feng understood the general idea.

"What kind of cave is it?" Ye Feng planned to ask for details.

"Hmm..." Little Huba scratched her head, trying to recall carefully, "Hupa doesn't know how to describe it, the cave entrance seemed to be emitting a blue light, or maybe a purple light, and it had a long tail... Huba can't quite put her finger on it..."

A long tail? What kind of hole has a tail? Is that really a hole? Ye Feng was full of questions.

"What about that elf?" Ye Feng asked, changing the subject.

“Hmm… I’ve never seen an elf before. It’s completely black, even blacker than Darkrai,” Hoopa said.

Darkklein: I haven't even appeared yet and I'm already being dragged into this?

"Uh..." Ye Feng scratched his head. Just by talking about it, he couldn't tell what kind of Pokémon it was, and Hoopa's description was ambiguous.

"Can you draw it?" Ye Feng asked tentatively, but since Little Huba looked a bit simple-minded, he didn't have high hopes.

“Hupa, give it a try…” Little Hupa said.

Little Huba lay on the ground, stretching out his hands to draw on the ground.

Ye Feng curiously leaned closer to take a look, and Meng Huan also came over.

···

? ?

Looking at Little Huba's drawing, Ye Feng's face slowly darkened.

Chapter 293 Hoopa's Painting Skills

"Hupa, can I ask you something? What are you drawing?" Ye Feng asked little Hupa, pointing to an incredibly abstract drawing on the ground, a few lines blurred together, the subject of which was completely unrecognizable.

“That black elf,” Little Hoopa tilted his head.

"···"

"Sorry, I really can't tell this is an elf." Ye Feng rubbed his forehead and looked at Mirage.

Meng Huan looked at Ye Feng with a confused and innocent expression: Don't look at me, I don't know either.

"Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now." Ye Feng understood that it was unlikely to find out the identity of that elf through Hoopa... it couldn't even describe what an elf looked like.

"Now there's a question: what level of power has that Pokémon reached after obtaining Hoopa's power?" Ye Feng asked, looking at Mew.

"I'm not quite sure either... Logically speaking, the Shadow Sprite should be incredibly powerful, but according to the Three Rare Mushrooms, Latios, and Latias, while it is strong, it doesn't seem to reach that level. It mainly relies on sneak attacks, which is a bit strange," Mew pondered.

“This Huba knows!” Little Huba floated in front of Ye Feng and raised her little hand.

"Hmm? You know?" Ye Feng's eyes lit up. It seems that Huba can be reliable after all.

“Hmm, because of Hoopa’s power, hmm… it became very bad, so Hoopa separated from it,” Little Hoopa said.

"I see. And then?" Ye Feng nodded.

"That's all," Little Huba said, tilting his head to the side.

"That's it?" Ye Feng looked bewildered.

“That’s all!” Little Huba nodded vigorously.

"..." What you said is as good as nothing at all, Ye Feng thought with a black line on his face.

“I understand,” Dream suddenly said.

"How did you figure that out?" Ye Feng was completely bewildered.

“What Hoopa means is that its power became evil, so it separated its power from itself, right?” Mew looked at Hoopa.

Little Huba nodded vigorously: "The people here are very kind to Huba. Huba knows that he was wrong before, so he doesn't want to do bad things anymore. But the power won't listen to Huba, so Huba distributed the power."

Is this even possible? No wonder it's called the Super Demon God.

"And then it was taken away by the black elves?" Ye Feng asked.

"Waaah..." Little Huba lowered her head in grievance and whispered, "It wasn't exactly taken away, it was the evil forces that took the initiative."

“Although that Pokémon stole Hoopa’s power, the power of the Mega Demon God is no ordinary thing. It may very well have its own consciousness, and I suspect it won’t be easily used by it. It might even interfere with it. Therefore, that Pokémon’s power might not have become stronger as a result, but rather weaker,” Mew said.

“Yes, yes, the evil force originally wanted to take over Hoopa’s body, but Hoopa separated it beforehand, preventing it from succeeding.” Little Hoopa said happily, raising her hand. “Besides, there is Arceus’s power here, so the evil force can’t hurt Hoopa.”

"The evil force possessed that elf and tried to take over Hoopa's body, but luckily Hoopa was smart and hid."

"I see." Ye Feng roughly understood.

It seems that Arceus's seal was aimed at Hoopa's evil power, and didn't restrict the kind-hearted Hoopa much, at most preventing it from leaving the area.

The Jar of Punishment in the theatrical version has a similar effect.

"Hoopa's...evil power failed to seize Hoopa's body, so it has set its sights on that Pokémon's body. Therefore, it will not only not be used by the Pokémon, but will also affect and weaken its power?"

"However, what the Three Saints said about that Pokémon's power not being complete... The evil aura should refer to Hoopa's bad power, so the incomplete power refers to that Pokémon? But bad power isn't actually complete either, so both are possible."

"I don't know about that," Dream shook her head. "Anything is possible."

Ye Feng fell into deep thought.

Based on current information, the black elf arrived here through a mysterious cave and happened to appear inside Arceus's seal.

The seal may have been damaged due to the opening.

Then Hoopa's evil power possessed the elf, intending to take over Hoopa's body but failing, and Hoopa went into hiding.

Seeing that there was no hope of taking it, the evil forces may have set their sights on the elf's body.

The Shadow Elf must be quite powerful, at least at the level of a legendary Pokémon, and possibly even as strong as Ho-Oh. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to open the mysterious cave to come to this world, overpower the three legendary Pokémon even with incomplete power, and severely injure Latios and his sister.

Similarly, Hoopa's evil power is certainly not weak either. The two fight and restrain each other for the sake of their bodies, which weakens the already incomplete strength of the elves.

However, the three sacred mushrooms' statement was incomplete. Did they refer to Hoopa's power or the spirit itself?

If the spirit itself is incomplete, then it came to this world very likely to find the missing part of itself. What level of strength did it originally possess? Was it as strong as Arceus with the complete stone tablet?

If it refers to Hoopa's power, then that makes sense.
