Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Soon, the mental field disappeared, and Casey also experienced a brief period of lethargy.

With its current strength, it is indeed a bit difficult for it to maintain the mental field for a long time.

However, Xia Yan saw Casey's obvious talent.

This is already the third inherited move.

It seems that Yungjila's care for it has paid off.

"Then... is there anything else?" Xia Yan asked with a hint of anticipation.

Casey bit her finger, thought for a moment, and then shook her head.

No more.

Xia Yan wasn't disappointed; inheriting the Ice Fist, Guard Swap, and Psychic Field was enough.

While it may be difficult for it to participate in combat alone now, its role in the field will undoubtedly be greatly enhanced.

This gave him even greater confidence in the expedition.

"Hee hee hee!" Casey quickly waved her little hand at Xia Yan, who had a satisfied look on his face.

The kind I had before is gone, but I have others.

Casey gestured with her hands up and down, her expression stiff and rigid.

Then it lay down on the ground, on all fours, licking its fur like a puppy, making a sound that was neither quite like nor quite like a "bu-i-bu-i" sound.

"You mean, you learned a trick from Steven's Shiny Metallica and Cynthia's Eevee yesterday?" Xia Yan raised an eyebrow.

Casey nodded repeatedly.

Raising its little hand, a black ball spun around in its palm.

"Shadowball..."

It was definitely the right decision to let Abra deal with Steven, Cynthia and the others' Pokémon yesterday. Eevee didn't ride for nothing; it actually learned a trick this time.

Xia Yan's expression turned somewhat strange.

"So, is there anything else...?"

Chapter Thirty-Five: The Dark Ruins

Ultimately, Xia Yan identified the moves that Casey had learned and inherited.

He already possessed Teleportation, inherited skills like Freeze Punch, Switch, and Psychic Terrain, and Shadow Ball learned from Steven's Shiny MetalGreymon and Cynthia's Eevee.

They have acquired a certain initial combat capability.

However, without training and actual combat experience, it's quite difficult to unleash their full combat potential immediately.

What troubled him the most was figuring out Casey's characteristics.

Because it will inevitably involve some potentially dangerous attempts.

Finally, with the help of Beedrill, Casey's ability was confirmed: Magic Defense.

Magic Defense: Immune to damage from sources other than attacks, such as continuous field damage like sandstorms and hail, abnormal statuses like burning and poisoning, and damage from items like Life Orbs.

This characteristic allowed Xia Yan to develop many items and tactics suitable for Casey.

Get in the car.

We went to the ruins that Daigo had mentioned.

The world of elves has many ruins, most of which are remnants left by civilizations from the ancient times.

As the League's strength continues to grow and humanity's research into Pokémon deepens, they are gradually turning their attention to these ancient ruins.

As far as Xia Yan knows, there are three ruins that have been explored around Goldenrod City. Two of them have been completely excavated, and the items inside have been collected by the League, gradually becoming places for trainers to explore.

Another relic was discovered not long ago and is currently still under lockdown by the Alliance.

I just don't know which one of the ruins Du mentioned.

Casey and Cynthia's Eevee were having a great time in the car; in such a large space, only they could really have fun.

Xia Yan propped his head up and looked out the window.

The increasingly cold weather caused pedestrians to wear thick clothes, and the fallen leaves scattered all over the ground had not yet been swept away, adding a touch of desolation to the golden city.

The activity of wild Pokémon in the surrounding area has significantly impacted the economy and development of Goldenrod City.

These characteristics become increasingly apparent as wild Pokémon continue to become more active.

"Uncle Liu and Ju Zi came to Golden City for the King's exhibition match, could it be because of this? Has the matter become so serious that it has alarmed the King?"

A terrible thought flashed through Xia Yan's mind.

If it's something that requires the intervention of two Heavenly Kings to resolve, then it's probably not that simple.

He glanced at Daigo, who was sitting next to him carefully wiping an unknown stone, and at Cynthia, who was also leaning against the window looking out.

"With both of them here, it shouldn't be too much of a problem, since an Elite Four exhibition match should attract many young trainers from various regions."

Thinking about this, I felt a little more relaxed.

Speechless all the way.

soon.

The car stopped on the edge of Golden City; if they wanted to go any further, they would have to rely on themselves.

The three of them got out of the car.

The area surrounding Golden City is now too dangerous, and even areas that were previously considered low-risk must remain under constant vigilance.

Wild elves' hostility toward humans has been greatly amplified.

Xia Yan threw out a Poké Ball and summoned Beedrill, but the inexperienced Abra was not enough to protect her.

Cynthia only brought Eevee, while Steven summoned his signature shiny Metallica.

He glanced at his left and right protectors.

With one championship on the left and one championship on the right, I feel at ease.

"Let's go. We're still quite a distance from the ruins. Let's get there as quickly as possible." Daigo waved and led the way into the dense forest.

Although both of them came from extraordinary backgrounds, their strength was clearly not something that could be achieved simply by relying on resources; they also had considerable experience in wilderness combat.

"Hee hee~~"

Casey followed Xia Yan, clutching his pants, her little head constantly looking around.

It had come to the wild with Xia Yan before, but at that time it was still in its growth period and always slept inside Xia Yan's clothes. This could be considered its first time facing the wild.

His little eyes were full of curiosity.

If a Pokémon like Casey consumes a lot of its psychic power, it needs a long period of sleep to replenish it, generally requiring eighteen hours or even more to recover.

However, Xia Yan's Casey has superpowers that are different from ordinary Casey, so it can stay conscious for a little longer.

However, once mental energy is depleted, the recovery time required will also be longer.

Casey hadn't undergone any real training or tried battling yet, so Xia Yan was only taking it along to let it observe and learn more about what battles should be like. At this time, the main force was still Beedrill.

"Bu-i~~"

After yesterday's interaction, Casey and Ibrahimovic got along quite well. Seeing that Casey was a little scared but also curious, Ibrahimovic took the initiative to act as Casey's guide.

Hearing Ibrahimovic's words, Casey nodded obediently.

soon.

As they ventured deeper, attacks from wild spirits began to occur one after another.

However, this level of attack posed no threat to Xia Yan and his companions.

A Beedrill's X-Scissors, a Shiny Metagross's Comet Punch, and an Eevee's Shadow Ball basically solve everything.

Casey stared blankly as Eevee took down a Spearow that was trying to ambush them with a Shadow Ball, and then admiration welled up in her little eyes.

I never expected that the seemingly cute Eevee would have such strength.

I also learned some methods and techniques for dealing with Eevee from their battles.

Although Casey didn't participate in the battle, this early contact will undoubtedly allow it to adapt more quickly in future training and battles.

The beginning was easy.

However, after leaving Golden City for a while, their speed of movement noticeably slowed down.

“The situation here is much worse than when I went out a while ago,” Xia Yan said, frowning.

"It's indeed quite tricky. I didn't expect the wild Pokémon around Goldenrod City to be this active." Steven was also somewhat surprised.

“Normally, wild Pokémon don’t change like this for no reason, especially not in groups.”

Cynthia tossed her hair and said casually.

Daigo looked down at the map.

"The ruins are not far from here. At our current speed, we should be able to get there within half an hour."

"I wonder if the elves inside the ruins are in the same situation. If so, I'm afraid this time it won't go very smoothly," Xia Yan said, expressing his opinion.

"We're already here, it would be a shame not to go and take a look."

"indeed."

The three of them quickened their pace and movements.

Actually, it's still within their acceptable range, since Daigo and Cynthia only summoned one Pokémon each.

Xia Yan's Beedrill has always been relatively restrained. It usually chooses not to take action against Pokémon that can be handled by Shiny Metallica and Eevee.

Daigo and Cynthia have other Pokémon, but Xia Yan only has it, so it must always have enough stamina and energy.

Along the way, Xia Yan kept asking Casey about the range of instantaneous movement it could withstand.

There are two types of teleportation.

One possibility is that during a normal battle, Casey can instantly teleport to any location within its line of sight.
