Elf Trader: My trump card is the Light/Dark Mantis.

Not bad!

At the Tokiwa Dojo.

Sakaki looked at the five spirit capsules that appeared on the spirit conveyor belt and showed a delighted expression.

Without hesitation, he grabbed Moby's Elf Capsule.

It was then released. ...

Immediately, the little guy covered in purple armor made eye contact with Earth Sakamoto.

Without hesitation, Moby walked up to Sakaki and leaned against him.

It could sense that the man before it could grant it immense power!

Giovanni was also pleasantly surprised, as he too sensed the extraordinary nature of this Ground-type Pokémon!

The power of the Eternal Moon within his body roared wildly!

This indicates that this is the most promising Ground-type Pokémon that Giovanni has ever seen!

"Good! Good!"

The ruthless tyrant laughed with immense pride!

The Pokémon League has recently taken many actions against Team Rocket...

This greatly displeased Giovanni...

With the new Cosmic Pokémon, after some training, Giovanni felt that when Moby Mega Evolved, Team Rocket would have the confidence to retaliate!

At the same time, in Celadon City, at the Celadon Gym.

With a soft "plop" sound.

The previously closed gates to the battleground slowly opened.

Lijia walked out looking exhausted.

Beside her, a small, emerald-green elf with a huge pink flowerbed on its head offered her a worried helping hand.

"no problem."

"Bubuhua, I'm fine."

Although she said that, Rika's face still couldn't hide her exhaustion!

She hasn't had a proper rest for almost a month!

However, the old man next to her, wearing a green felt hat, was even worse off than her!

This is none other than Carlos's Grass-type Gym Leader, Mr. Fu.

He was quite old, but he endured more than a month of hardship alongside Lijia!

During this time, Fu Ye and Li Jia used all the secret recipes passed down in their families for cultivating grass-type plants, and collected a large number of resources such as miracle seeds, grass-type energy cubes, and grass-type gems for Bubuflower.

I want this Pokémon to reach Mega Evolution.

And he broke through to the Heavenly King level in one fell swoop!

Thus, he achieved the title of Grass-type Elite Four member!

but……

Despite the fact that the two dojo masters had done their best.

They even received additional help from other Grass-type powerhouses in other regions...

For example, the vegetable seed sent us a miracle seed of extremely high quality.

Cilan from the Unova region gifted me a Grass-type gem with extremely high energy purity!

In Alola, Mallow even concocted special paralyzing powder, poison powder, and sleep-inducing powder for Bulbasaur to absorb, hoping to further enhance the Pokémon's ability to inflict status conditions...

With all these improvements, Bubuhua has indeed made rapid progress!

His strength had reached a level just one step away from the Heavenly King level.

But it could never take that final step!

Firstly, the time was too tight, only a little over a month in total. Even with the best efforts in training, it would be impossible to improve strength so quickly!

Secondly, this Pokémon... hasn't Mega Evolved yet!

As a veteran Grass-type powerhouse, Master Fu naturally knows that raising Pokémon is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

He even wanted to quickly break through the threshold of the Elite Four level, and his only idea was to make Bubuflower super evolve!

But I just can't do it!

Lijia and Fuye have spared no expense in investing in various nutrients and grass-type resources.

But Bubuflower hasn't even gotten close to super evolution!

At this moment, Lijia was also extremely helpless!

She apologized guiltily to Master Fu beside her.

"Ugh……"

"I don't know why, Bubuhua just can't take it any further!" Lijia looked sad, and Bubuhua beside her looked even more uneasy.

It felt somewhat guilty for failing its trainer's guidance. ...While, Master Fu seemed lost in thought...

“No, Lijia, perhaps it’s not a problem with Bubuhua or us.” “I think our efforts are heading in the right direction.” “We’ve already done everything we can to maximize Bubuhua’s potential…”

"But the reason it hasn't improved so far might not be because we haven't done a good enough job, but because we lack certain conditions," he pondered.

Upon hearing this, Lijia's eyes lit up!

That's certainly possible!

Even if the super evolution of Bubuflower is extremely difficult, after such a huge amount of resources are poured in, at least we should be able to hear a sound!

There should be some signs of a life leap!

But it showed no signs of super-evolution whatsoever!

Does that mean that this Pokémon's Mega Evolution requires other conditions?

After all, there are Pokémon in the Pokémon world that require trading or holding a certain item to evolve! "However, what exactly are the conditions..." "I'll have to ask that mysterious shopkeeper!" Fu Ye pondered. He felt that Shopkeeper Jiang was a bit...

Was it intentional?

I only told Rikka that Bubuflower could Mega Evolve.

However, no method was mentioned.

This is very suspicious!

However, Lijia didn't think too much about it. She just eagerly found Xiaolan's contact information and made a phone call.

Chapter 119: Super Evolution? More Money Required!

Xiao Lan quickly received a call from Li Jia. After the Celadon City Gym Leader explained his purpose, she took the initiative to call Jiang Gu over...

"Miss Rika, is there anything I can help you with?"

"I'm sorry, I don't have any Grass-type Pokémon to sell you right now."

Jiang Gu spoke calmly, but a slight thought stirred within him...

He could guess that the Grass-type Gym Leader had come to him at this point most likely because of the issue of the Mega Evolution of the Pokémon he had sold her…

Lijia did not hide the news of her seclusion from the outside world.

Many people are speculating whether this well-known Grass-type powerhouse wants to challenge for a position above the Gym Leader!

The Pokémon that Rika has the best chance of breaking through to the Elite Four level is—Cosmic Spirit!

Jiang Gu guessed that after such a long period of seclusion, Li Jia must have realized that it would be difficult for her to help Bubu Flower or the Magic Flower Fairy advance any further on her own.

So they came to seek their own help.

Sure enough, Lijia asked somewhat anxiously as soon as she spoke.

"Manager Jiang, I have put a lot of effort into cultivating Bubu Flower."

"And it used a lot of the resources needed for Grass-type Pokémon..."

"But so far, there's been no sign of Bubuflower undergoing any super evolution!"

"How is this going?"

"Was my breeding method wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Gu almost burst out laughing...

Lijia really cares about Bubuhua.

But in reality, the problem really was with her breeding strategy!

Jiang Gu knew that Rika had previously gone into seclusion to try and break through to the Elite Four level with her Pokémon, hoping to become the first Grass-type Elite Four member.

This is not only the speculation of many outsiders, but Xiao Lan also personally received the news from Li Jia.
