Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

"The organizers are definitely doing this on purpose; they want to see exactly where the limits of super evolution are," Xia Yan muttered to himself.

It seemed that only in this way could his wounded heart be soothed.

Since his match against Sakaki, the tournament schedule has become increasingly outrageous.

However, one of his unintentional remarks actually touched on the Kanto Alliance's little secret.

of course.

But that's not all.

Cynthia ate her shaved ice with a smile.

Ever since Xia Yan took her to eat this last time, she found herself liking this kind of icy, sweet and sour food.

"Cynthia, give me a hint."

Xia Yan looked at Cynthia with a hint of expectation.

At least.

We should at least give him some mental preparation.

Cynthia gently bit her spoon with her pearly teeth, her mischievous eyes blinking playfully as she smiled and said, "I'll tell you when the competition starts."

"Bu-i~~"

Glaceon, standing next to Cynthia, nodded repeatedly.

Xia Yan's expression fell.

Then he looked at the Ice Eevee with its head held high.

I thought about it.

He took out a box of the top-grade energy cubes that Little Six-Tail loves to eat the most.

I raised an eyebrow at it.

But then he saw that Ice Eevee gave him a disdainful look and ignored him.

Who do you think you are?

Cynthia also eats top-tier energy cubes, okay?

"You heartless little thing, I also contributed to your evolution."

Xia Yan angrily put away the energy cube.

"Hehehe—"

Ice Eevee stuck out its tongue.

It's not stupid; it knows that Cynthia's opponent today is Xia Yan.

However, Xia Yan did not give up. He took out two thumb-sized, azure-blue ice crystals and held them in his palm. Under the light, they appeared exceptionally translucent.

"Buyi!"

Upon seeing this, Glaceon's eyes lit up instantly.

Eternal Ice!

Cynthia was also somewhat surprised.

"Haven't you finished eating your six-tailed fox yet?"

Last time, when Liu Bo was teaching Xia Yan's Vulpix and Cynthia's Glaceon at the same time, he gave each of them a bag of "Eternal Ice".

Only by consuming this substance can one truly understand the power of "Eternal Ice".

However, Cynthia had already finished her bag, and Ice Eevee benefited greatly.

Actually, Liuwei had already finished his portion.

These were the main materials he obtained from the secret vault of Zhuqing Village during his time in Xicui; they were originally intended to be used to make the "Ice Treasure".

Little Six-tailed Fox eats every day and can sustain itself for a long time.

However, this is something you can only eat a little of and it will become less of a thing.

"I have a little bit left, so I'll share some with you."

Xia Yan gritted his teeth and said with a pained expression.

Upon hearing this, Cynthia smiled gently.

Looking at Xia Yan's serious face, she slightly moved her lips and uttered two words.

"I do not!"

His words were also filled with a touch of arrogance and a hint of mischief.

Xia Yan: "..."

"Cynthia, don't tell him, you'll scare him!"

Du, standing nearby, was enjoying the spectacle.

"Yes, yes, don't tell him!"

Daigo also echoed.

just now.

Their "Anti-Xia Yan Alliance" is now down to just Cynthia.

As the last hope of "the whole village".

Today they have all become Cynthia's loyal fans.

Xia Yan glared at them, annoyed.

He pursed his lips.

He took out two more cloth bags filled with "Eternal Ice" again.

One of the bags was given to Cynthia, who had just rejected him.

The other bag was given to Cona.

Meanwhile, regarding Cona:

"Lorelei, this is 'Eternal Ice,' which will help Ice-type Pokémon master more advanced moves. You can let your Pokémon try it out. Eat as much as you want, and if you need more, just ask me. Make sure no one achieves their goal easily."

Upon seeing this.

Watari, who had been laughing happily just moments before, now had a stiff expression.

Daigo was trying not to laugh, while Cynthia was also smiling radiantly, her body trembling slightly.

These two people.

They're really going to hurt each other like this.

"Uh-huh!"

Kona, however, accepted the bag of "Eternal Ice" with a serious expression.

Kona and Natsuhiko are in cahoots when it comes to "taking out" Wataru.

This made Xia Yan somewhat interested.

Should we create a "everyone targets the flying-type king" faction and lure everyone else over?

Cynthia opened the bag and looked inside at the "Eternal Ice" that was full of it.

He casually picked one out and handed it to the eager-looking Eevee next to him.

After thinking about it, he still said:

"actually......"

She gently smoothed her hair. "It's not exactly a powerful trump card."

"Don't say it!"

"Cynthia!"

Watari and Daigo quickly spoke up.

Xia Yan's eyes sparkled as he looked at her with delight.

Cynthia pursed her lips, narrowed her eyes, and a hint of cunning flashed in them.

"All I can say is that she is an elf I have known for a long time, and she comes from the 'Land of Dragons'."

She still habitually refers to "Dragon's Tomb" as "Dragon's Village".

The words fell.

Xia Yan's initial enthusiasm vanished instantly.

Saying it means not saying it.

Could it be that terrifying Garchomp from the "Dragon's Tomb"?

Shouldn't.

While Cynthia and that Garchomp are good, she already has one Garchomp, and given Cynthia's personality, she won't catch a second one.

She's not like Lance, she doesn't have the ability to collect so many fast dragons.

but.

Her words still revealed some information.

We've known each other for a long time.

This indicates that Cynthia and that Pokémon have a good rapport. They may not have a deep bond like Garchomp, but they are not a newly captured Pokémon that cannot unleash its full potential or has not yet worked together.

Since it comes from the "Land of Dragons", it is very likely to be a dragon-type spirit.

In addition, Cynthia's outfit today is absolutely gorgeous.

A Scaled Dragon with a Staff-like Tail?!

Xia Yan was slightly shocked.
