Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

With the combined efforts of the three little ones, a red stone slab appeared before Xia Yan, with faint purple light swirling around it.

Dragon Slate!

Upon seeing the stone slab, Latios, Babydra, and Goomy's eyes lit up instantly.

Thank you.

After receiving the "Dragon Slab," Xia Yan sincerely thanked the three little ones.

This thing can now play a very important role.

After doing all that, the three little ones prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

However, Xia Yan stopped him.

His face was full of a kind smile.

"Um... I have a request, I don't know if I can get your help."

As the three little ones looked puzzled, Xia Yan quickly added, "Of course, there is a reward."

As he spoke, he took out three metal boxes.

Upon opening, a faint, enticing fragrance is released, revealing glistening, blocky particles inside.

Energy Cube!

Upon seeing the energy cube and smelling the aroma emanating from it, the three little guys couldn't help but swallow hard.

Although the resources of the green eagles are now abundant and they have no shortage of food, they don't need to eat anything.

But even compared to the treasures that Zhuqing Village is so proud of and the top-tier energy cubes in Xia Yan's hands, they are far less tempting and appealing.

Seeing their expressions, Xia Yan's smile widened.

Under Azelf's questioning gaze, Xia Yan pointed to Zoroark and Goodra lying on the ground.

Finding a teacher for the little ones is no easy task.

Zoroark's use of its "illusion" ability is still quite different from this Zoroark.

Noodle Bao's gaze hadn't left Noodle Dragon since it appeared, and Xia Yan could clearly sense Noodle Dragon's longing for it.

Perhaps Goodra is a bit lacking in teaching Latios due to the difference in attributes, but it has no problem teaching Goomy and Beastar.

They had made contact with Giratina and obtained the "Red Chains," so Xia Yan was now quite confident in completing Arceus's mission.

Therefore, he wants to make the most of the advantages of the Xicui area during this month.

In addition, the "Dragon Slate" was also obtained.

Sticky babies and the like.

It's time for it to evolve.

Azelf and the others looked at Zoroark and Goodra, who were lying on the ground unconscious, but with expressions of relief on their faces.

They're already pitiful enough...

You can look at the energy cube that Xia Yan is shaking in his hand.

Without prior arrangement, the three little Arknom nodded in unison, as if they were pounding garlic.

It's a small matter.

The unconscious Zoroark and Goody were completely unaware that they had been sold.

...

...

One week later.

Yuxi, Memridor, and Azelf, an elf, are carrying a large box of energy cubes.

He waved to Xia Yan with satisfaction.

The Zoroark and the Goomyron behind them were supporting themselves on their knees, retching incessantly.

A glimmer of hope finally appeared on his despairing face.

They made eye contact.

They both saw relief in each other's eyes.

it is finally over.

starting today.

They need to go to bed early and get up early, get good rest, and avoid fighting or arguing, striving to avoid fighting for at least ten years.

I'm done.

The world is so beautiful, fighting is really bad, really bad...

Xia Yan also happily bid farewell to the three little ones.

Beside him were Latios, who seemed lost in thought; Infernape, who looked regretful; Sylveon, who was playful and cute; and Flamewaker, who was eager to try.

There stood a carapace dragon whose entire body was encased in white armor, with only its four legs and face showing, and a soft elf in its green form, resembling a snail carrying its shell.

Under the influence of the misty "Dragon Slab" and with the guidance of the Sticky Dragon, Baby Dragon and Sticky Baby finally took a crucial step yesterday.

They each completed their evolution in the pure light of evolution.

The armored dragon is one step closer to its dream of flight, and now it is beginning to gather the power to break free from its cocoon.

Under Goodra's unreserved guidance, Goomy's timid nature improved slightly, and it evolved into the Emerald form that Xia Yan had hoped for, possessing Dragon and Steel types.

Now, even if Xia Yan takes Numei away from Xicui, its final evolution will no longer be the ordinary Numei Dragon.

After completing their evolution, they each took a crucial step forward in their strength, reaching the level of Gym Leaders.

At this point, Xia Yancai finally began to resemble a Dragon-type Gym Leader.

After helping them complete their evolution, Xia Yan handed the "Dragon Tablet" over to Latios.

The stone slab is now the biggest help it can receive.

Meanwhile, Zoroark, nestled in Xia Yan's arms, kept waving goodbye to Zoroark.

During that week, it did almost nothing else but learn from Zoroark how to utilize the properties of "illusion," and made great progress.

These seven days.

Although Xia Yan's overall strength doesn't seem to have changed much, the strength of his main Pokémon hasn't improved very significantly either.

However, his overall strength has actually improved significantly.

He also practiced the unexpected tactic of "unlimited switching" plus "hat trick" many times.

The results are becoming increasingly outstanding.

Xia Yan began to feel curious.

Who will face his tactic at the upcoming Masters tournament?

I don't know if I'll be disgusted.

Put away any budding thoughts.

Officially bidding farewell to Yuxi, Emlido, and Arknom.

Xia Yan prepared to return to Zhuqing Village, exchange some of the town's treasures, and then began to collect the remaining stone slabs.

Watching Xia Yan and the others leave.

Arknom held the Power Cube, his bright eyes sparkling.

'This human is really nice. I guess we'll meet again in the future? In the future... I think I'll have to help him awaken his superpowers? He'll treat me to something delicious then, it's a promise~~hehe~~'

...

...

Celebration Village.

They had just returned to Zhuqing Village.

Xia Yan could clearly sense the change in the villagers' attitude towards him.

The enthusiastic greetings that used to greet people as they walked along the street have disappeared.

All that remained were pairs of scrutinizing, doubtful, hesitant, and rejecting eyes.

Feel these changes.

Xia Yan was speechless.

His face showed no change whatsoever, and he didn't seem to care if others didn't greet him.

I just didn't expect it.

The protagonist's experiences in the game can actually be grafted onto him in such an unconventional way?

After thinking for a moment, Xia Yan guessed the reason.

The true power holder of Zhuqing Village, Ma Jiamu, the captain of the Galaxy Team, should have returned.

Besides.

His last words when he killed Wang Luo were likely Wang Luo's final contingency plan.

A letter containing information unknown to Xia Yan was delivered to Ma Jiamu through a special means.

This caused Ma Jiamu, who was already cautious and suspicious, to doubt his identity, his intentions, and his actions.

He was, after all, an outsider.

Even if he played a significant role when the wild elves besieged Zhuqing Village, it was impossible for him to completely shake Ma Jiamu's control over the entire village in just a few days.

"That's interesting."

Xia Yan's smile remained unchanged as he ignored all gazes and strode towards the Galaxy Team's headquarters building.

along the way.
