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

"The reason is simple. Judging from Manager Jiang's intentions, the Cosmic Spirit will be sold to people in various regions."

"But Dan's strength is only the strength of the Galer region."

“I hope you can stop his momentum.”

As the champion, she naturally has to take responsibility for the development of her region.

Allowing Dandi to dominate is definitely not good news.

The Dragon Crossing's victory was solely due to the strength of the Cosmic Spirits.

The Cosmic Spirit can also be purchased from Shopkeeper Jiang in the Carlos region.

It goes without saying which side to support.

Yu Longdu nodded thoughtfully.

"Don't worry, I will definitely win."

He spoke confidently, and a magic capsule at his waist trembled slightly.

However, just as the two champions were having a pleasant conversation, the ground suddenly trembled slightly.

"Hmm, what's going on? An earthquake?"

Yulongdu is acting strangely; the Quartz Plateau hasn't experienced an earthquake in decades...

Karuno's expression also changed; she clearly felt the tremor and was slightly surprised.

Fortunately, the two quickly realized that the tremor had only lasted for a brief moment.

It did not cause any serious consequences.

So they quickly ignored this minor detail and continued discussing the upcoming exhibition match against Dante.

Chapter 163: Unlucky Little Silver

However, if Lance and Diantha had been more vigilant and inquired about the situation, they would have realized that this sudden tremor had affected the entire Pokémon world.

This was no ordinary earthquake.

After learning about the unusual nature of this tremor, they combined it with the findings of the Hoenn League's investigation.

The leader of a certain villainous organization may control the legendary Pokémon Groudon and Kyogre.

Then Lance and Karuno would realize that a world-class crisis might be slowly approaching...

Hoenn region, Land Cave.

This is an area overflowing with lava. ... ...

The surrounding temperature was extremely high! Fire and Ground-type powers surged, suppressing other types of Pokémon and leaving them weak and exhausted.

However, at the deepest part of the cave, a burly man in a light blue uniform revealed a smug smile.

"Finally found!"

Shui Wutong shouted loudly.

The Cave of Land is not a fixed location.

Instead, it is hidden in the Hoenn region, in a place with unusual weather.

This is where Groudon sleeps.

Just now, the Water Wutong had awakened this divine beast, and...

He was thrilled as he looked at the Masterball in his hand.

With the help of his Mega-evolved Megalodon and the combined attack of his minions, he successfully defeated and captured the extremely weakened Groudon.

"Now all that's left is Kyogre."

"Once we obtain these two divine beasts, our long-cherished wish to have the ocean swallow the land will surely be fulfilled!"

Shui Wutong shouted excitedly.

His men were also overjoyed.

"We're about to succeed!"

"Our long-cherished dream is about to come true!"

"Long live the boss! Thank you, Manager Jiang! He sold us such a powerful Pokémon!"

"The future of the world belongs to our Aquadron!"

Shui Wutong's trusted subordinates were all extremely excited.

How could they not be excited?

The core members of the naval fleet are all people with faith!

To allow the ocean to engulf the land, making the world the most beautiful place!

They would brave fire and water, even unto death!

Success is now within reach!

Two gods, and top-tier gods like Groudon and Kyogre, with them.

It's no exaggeration to say that they could contend with the entire world without any pressure.

There is no doubt that the Aqua Team will become the rulers of the future world, and no one can stop them.

Even the Cosmic Elf sold by Manager Jiang won't work.

Because gods and ordinary spirits are two different kinds of beings.

The water sycamore was extremely proud.

"This world will eventually grovel at my feet!"

He excitedly raised the Poké Ball containing Groudon and shouted.

It seems that with two gods at his command, the Pokémon League is nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs!

He will become the god of the new world!

Shui Wutong never considered the possibility that her ambition might be shattered.

Two first-level gods!

Even Rayquaza, who quelled the conflict between Groudon and Kyogre in mythology, would have a hard time dealing with it!

Shui Wutong was usually quite cautious, but now, he felt an overwhelming advantage...

The dragon was right in front of me, I had no idea how I was going to lose!

Of course, he was unaware that Jiang Gu had already sold Axia to Mikoli, the former Hoenn champion.

Meanwhile, Sora is also rapidly growing stronger by gathering the strength of the entire Hoenn League!

Regardless of whether Shui Wutong's wild idea can be realized, at least everyone who obtained the Cosmic Spirit, including him, has had smooth sailing, except for one unlucky guy—the Chengdu area.

In the woods near the Lake of Wrath.

A boy with bright red hair, a cold expression, and dressed in sportswear was running around in a mess in the forest.

His arms and ankles were scratched by tree branches, leaving bloody marks.

Because the boy's actions were too reckless, many Bug-type Pokémon on the roadside were startled and released Poison Needle and String Shot at him.

But he simply took off his outer garment and waved it in his hand, and he blocked the attacks of those elves whose levels were only in the single digits.

The boy continued running forward as fast as he could. "Damn it, Team Rocket people are definitely not trustworthy!" the red-haired boy cursed.

He is Xiao Yin.

This person originally came to the Chengdu area and was preparing to challenge several gyms to continue honing their Pokémon, especially the Infernape obtained through Essence Fusion.

At first, Silver's journey went very smoothly.

Infernape successfully reached Gym Leader level and evolved into its final form, Magma Ape. With its exceptional talent, it mastered most of the moves before Mega Evolution.

Little Silver's journey can be described as smooth sailing.

Until yesterday, he accepted an invitation from his father, Bishace, the Rockets' head of operations in the Chengdu area, to visit the team's training base.

The original Silver naturally disdained to pay attention to the Rockets.

But after all, the Pokémon he has were all acquired by his father, Giovanni, at a cost of hundreds of millions of yen...

Xiao Yin decided to give her father some face.

That's what caused the problem.

Bishas was by no means a loyal subordinate. He had been secretly building up his influence in the Chengdu area, making the Chengdu branch of Team Rocket an impenetrable fortress.

No one's orders were as effective as his.

Such a person, harboring malicious intentions, must have had ulterior motives in inviting Xiao Yin.

He attacked Xiao Yin directly when he arrived for the appointment, attempting to steal his cosmic spirit and take the son of Giovanni hostage!

Fortunately, Xiao Yin didn't have a good impression of the Rockets from the beginning and remained highly vigilant.

And Bishas's arrangements made a major mistake; he did not expect that one of his elite officers was actually a staunch supporter of Sakaki, and that he would betray him at the crucial moment!
