“Almost every one of them is as strong as us, and there are at least eleven of them,” Tapu Koko said.

Ye Feng's expression turned even uglier.

Eleven? Could the chaos of the legendary Pokémon in the future be caused by the arrival of the Ultra Beasts? But he didn't see any strange Pokémon in the original footage.

Even if the Tapu family can handle four of them, what about the remaining seven?

Ye Feng has a fairly good relationship with Ho-Oh and Xerneas, so he might be able to get their help. Yveltal... let's not count it. Palkia has Mew, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Dialga is the same. As for the two idiots from Hoenn... well, it's good enough if they don't cause any trouble.

Darkrai should also be willing to help, along with the three legendary mushrooms and the three legendary beasts, although they might be a little weaker?

Mew really isn't good at fighting; it almost killed Hoopa when it held it back—though it wouldn't have actually been in any real danger, as Palkia helped it out. It might be a bit of a stretch to deal with Ultra Beasts.

As for the other legendary Pokémon, even Mew doesn't know if they've awakened yet, and even if they have, it's hard to guarantee they'll fight Ultra Beasts.

Based on this calculation, the threat posed by Ultra Beasts is quite significant; they might indeed cause a disaster in the future.

On the human side, the current ceiling of strength is only near-legendary level; someone capable of participating in a battle of this caliber would be extremely rare, perhaps even unparalleled in the entire world...

Furthermore, there are Hoopa and Necrozma lurking in the shadows, with Hoopa posing a greater threat. If the two sides clash, they might resort to underhanded tactics from behind. It's best not to do too much; just have Hoopa summon and control one or two legendary Pokémon…

Ye Feng shook his head vigorously. He had only come to find a secret realm to train, but he never expected to learn such a shocking secret. The amount of information was so great that he found it hard to accept for a while.

"I'm just a very novice advanced trainer, why do I always run into such absurd things?" Ye Feng felt a headache coming on.

The issues with Hoopa and Necrozma haven't been resolved yet, and now a bunch of Ultra Beasts have appeared.

Ye Feng suddenly remembered those stone tablets in the World Tree... Sheep, no, is Arceus asleep? Could it wake up and save this humble and weak trainer?

"Don't worry too much, we'll help." Tapu Koko saw Ye Feng's pale face and knew that Ultra Beasts were a big problem, but it wasn't telling Ye Feng that this was just to let him worry for nothing.

"What kind of help?" Ye Feng asked with a hint of hope.

“The Radiant God once bestowed upon us a powerful ability, a move called ‘Z,’ which allows Pokémon to unleash devastating attacks in battle. Furthermore, the Alola Islands possess a unique aura, allowing ordinary Pokémon to train here and improve their strength more rapidly,” Tapu Koko said.

"'Z' moves? What are those?" A huge question mark appeared above Ye Feng's head.

“Let me show you,” Tapu Koko said, flying into the sky.

"What are you going to do?" Ye Feng asked, his gaze following the question.

Tapu Koko stopped in mid-air, making some strange movements. Suddenly, a violent burst of lightning erupted from its body, quickly gathering in front of it and transforming into a giant ball of lightning, with raging lightning flashing wildly.

Feeling the imposing aura emanating from the sky, Ye Feng's eyes widened in surprise.

With a soft roar, Tapu Koko pushed its right half-shell-like hand forward forcefully, and the Thunderball instantly transformed into a golden beam of light that shot into the sky, scattering the clouds.

"This is the Z-Move?"

Ye Feng was extremely surprised. He originally thought that the Spiral Attribute Ball was the strongest in terms of power, although the difference was not that big. He did not expect that there was one even stronger than that.

"This is the Z-Move." Tapu Koko returned to Ye Feng's side and said with a hint of pride.

"What exactly is the Z-Move?" Ye Feng asked after a moment of silence. He could tell that this was no ordinary move.

"This was taught to us by the Radiant God. By using the power of the Radiant Stone and the Z-Crystal, we can draw upon the power of nature and integrate it into the Pokémon, thereby amplifying its normal moves into special moves. This is the Z-Move," Tapu Koko explained.

"Radiant Stone? Z-Crystal?" Ye Feng looked puzzled. He looked Tapu Koko up and down but didn't see anything special.

"Radiant Stone is the crystallization of the light of the God of Light, while Z-Pure Crystal is the crystallization of the power of nature."

“What I just demonstrated for you was just a regular Z-Move. Some exceptionally talented Pokémon can use it on their own, but most Pokémon need the help of their trainers,” Tapu Koko said.

"Are there any restrictions?" Having learned from the experience of Mega Evolution, Ye Feng knew very well that such a powerful ability would definitely come at a price.

"Z-Moves are quite physically demanding. An average person can only use them once when they are in good physical condition. Of course, some humans and Pokémon with exceptional physiques can use them more than twice."

Ye Feng frowned. Although the Z-Move seemed incredibly powerful, its limitations were too great. It could only be used once, which was even more excessive than Mega Evolution.

“Although there are some restrictions, all Pokémon can learn it,” Tapu Koko said.

"All of them?" Ye Feng looked up. If that were the case, then it would be similar to Mega Evolution in its own way.

Mega Evolution has a higher barrier to entry—although he initially announced that all Pokémon could potentially Mega Evolve, he himself didn't know if that was true or not, but it does have greater durability.

The Z-Move has a lower learning curve, but you can only use it once.

"Yes, regardless of the type of Z-Move, as long as the Pokémon can learn a move of that type, it can use it with the corresponding Z-Crystal."

"Any type?" Ye Feng was taken aback. "My Gardevoir can use moves of all types, so does that mean it can use all Z-Moves?"

“That’s how it is in theory.” Tapu Komatsu was taken aback.

Ye Feng's question is not wrong in principle, but as he said, Z-Moves are very burdensome, and people usually choose to learn only one, rarely learning too many Z-Moves.

Ye Feng wasn't too happy, of course. The cost of the Z moves was obvious. Even if he could learn them all, he would probably only be able to use one of them in battle, so there was no need to learn them all.

Furthermore, Gardevoir has a Spiral Ball that is not much weaker, and Gyarados's Spot Attack is not far behind. It would be putting the cart before the horse for them to learn a move that can only be used once or twice. Other Pokémon would be better off learning it.

"In addition, there is a special exclusive Z-Move, whose power far surpasses that of ordinary Z-Moves. It can exhibit different effects depending on the specific situation of the Pokémon; it may be offensive or supportive," Tapu Koko suddenly said.

A unique Z-Move? Its power far surpasses that of a regular one? Ye Feng's eyes widened.

This is better, I want to learn it!

“Of course, developing a unique Z-Move is extremely difficult and requires the combined efforts of several of us to have any chance of success,” Tapu Koko added.

"..." Ye Feng was speechless. Why are you pouring cold water on me like this?

“Therefore, I suggest you start with the basic moves, take it one step at a time, and try to develop your own moves once you’re familiar with them,” Tapu Koko added.

Finally, Tapu Koko stated that since Gardevoir can use all types of moves, it can theoretically learn all Z-Moves. Therefore, it can first rely on different Z-Crystals to release other Z-Moves, thereby gaining an understanding of the use of natural forces and reducing the difficulty of developing its own Z-Move.

"The power of nature?" Ye Feng had another question.

Tapu Koko patiently explained, "Regular moves are used by the Pokémon's own energy, while Z-Moves incorporate natural energy."

Natural energy? Ye Feng murmured the word to himself, feeling as if he had forgotten something.

Chapter 383 Island Pilgrimage Plan

When it comes to natural energy, the first thing that comes to mind is not some strange pattern, but the Primal Reversion of Groudon and Kyogre.

According to Tapu Koko, Z-Moves are moves that draw upon the power of nature to amplify Pokémon. This seems to be a way of utilizing natural energy. If these two... these two legendary Pokémon master Z-Moves and master the use of natural energy, is it possible to achieve Primal Reversion without the help of Crimson and Indigo Orbs?

If regular Z-Moves don't work, what about exclusive Z-Moves?

It's worth noting that these two spirits have been fighting for natural energy for countless years. The Crimson and Indigo Orbs are most likely the essence of natural energy, but it's unknown where they've been lost.

If this problem can be solved, these two elves should be able to live together peacefully, right?

However, the amount of natural energy required to bring two ancient legendary Pokémon back to their original state is probably unimaginable, and this matter needs to be carefully considered.

After suppressing this idea, Ye Feng and Tapu Koko began discussing how to promote Z-Moves.

Compared to Mega Evolution, the barrier to using Z-Moves is practically nonexistent.

If a trainer has a Z-Ring made of Evangelion Stone and a Z-Crystal of the corresponding type, they can successfully use a Z-Move by performing a full-power prayer dance.

Of course, to prevent the power from being abused by those with evil intentions, Tapu Koko will also conduct assessments and screenings for trainers who come to learn Z-Moves.

Kapu Minkling shared their thoughts with Ye Feng.

They plan to first select one human trainer from among those who enter the secret realm to become their representative and the master of the island, and teach them how to use Z-Moves.

Next, the island's dominant Pokémon—those enormous, special Pokémon—will assist the island's ruler in setting up trials to test more trainers and pass on Z-Moves to those trainers who are qualified in both temperament and ability.

Trainers who pass the test can choose to stay in the Alola Islands, where there is a special aura that can enhance the effectiveness of Pokémon training. Of course, this aura isn't something they can just take for granted; they also need to guide future trainers.

In this way, there will be more and more trainers in the Alola Islands, and they will have the power to fight against the invasion of Ultra Beasts in the future.

This project is called the Islands Tour.

Ye Feng expressed his agreement, noting that it coincided with his idea of ​​using Mega Evolution to enhance the strength of human trainers in order to deal with the chaos caused by legendary Pokémon.

He was originally thinking about how to promote Z-Moves, but he didn't expect that Tapu and his team had already come up with a plan.

As for becoming the island's master, Ye Feng had no interest in that; he had no desire to remain on the island as an examiner indefinitely.

Ye Feng is destined to become the guardian of the World Tree, which is far more prestigious than being an island lord. Besides, even if Ye Feng were willing, would Dream World allow it...?

"Leave the publicity to me," Ye Feng said, patting his chest. Since the Tapu family had shown such goodwill and offered to teach Z-Moves, Ye Feng, as the "human ambassador for diplomacy with legendary Pokémon," naturally had to return the favor and provide assistance to the Tapu family.

"I have a little bit of fame in human society. All I need to do is write a paper and publish the Z-Moves and the special aura of the Alola Islands. I'm sure a lot of trainers will come to participate in the island pilgrimage."

Mega Evolution couldn't become truly widespread due to the presence of Key Stones and Mega Stones, but Z-Moves are much simpler, as they can be learned simply by completing the Island Tour.

What? You're saying what to do if it doesn't pass? Isn't that your own problem? What does it have to do with me, Ye Feng?

Tapu Koko happily nodded in agreement. It was already quite good that they hadn't been attacked since they first arrived in this world, and it was naturally best that Ye Feng was willing to help spread the word.

"Then leave it to me." Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh. Mega Evolution had just been announced, and now another powerful Z-Move had appeared. In this way, humanity would have more confidence in the face of the future chaos of legendary Pokémon.

···

After bidding a friendly farewell to Tapu Koko, Ye Feng led Ma Juncai and the others back to the Pacific Branch of the China Association. He wanted to report the situation to the association first, and then go back to Tapu and the others to learn Z-Moves.

"Why are you back so soon?" Master Du asked, somewhat surprised to see the group.

How long has it been? Only half a day. Could it have already gone wrong? Is Ye Feng really that bad?

“Things have changed, Master Du. I hope you can recall all the exploration teams that have entered the island immediately,” Ye Feng said solemnly.

"What happened?" Master Du asked, somewhat puzzled.

Besides Ye Feng's team, other Chinese exploration teams followed them in, as did many teams from other countries.
