Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

It also failed to realize that what it needed to guard against was not just Tokiss, but... many more!

Furthermore, this team is showing a trend of growing larger and larger.

This is not.

Cynthia's Togekiss was successfully swayed by Xia Yan's Togekiss.

After all, they had known each other for a long time, back when Cynthia's Togekiss was just Xia Yan's little follower.

Their mischievousness and troublemaking are all thanks to Xia Yanbokekis.

The little guys were waiting for their chance to strike.

Beneath the seemingly calm surface of the dinner party, a turbulent undercurrent was brewing.

but.

The "undercurrent" does not originate from within, but also from without.

The aroma emanating from Xia Yan and his companions' meals inevitably attracted the attention of wild elves.

And this time was no exception.

However, the wild Pokémon that suddenly attacked this time is probably one of the strongest in the entire ancient battlefield.

Whoosh whoosh—

Several tiny black feathers pierced through the layers of leaves and trees, heading straight for Xia Yan and the others.

Ding ding ding!!

But the moment these black needles pierced through, the shield-wielding sword monster in the black mist instantly solidified, its hard shield deflecting all the hair-thin needles.

Xia Yan and Xiluona also realized what was happening.

"Sewing Shadow?"

After glancing at the attack technique that revealed neatly arranged brown feathers as the black mist slowly dissipated after landing, Xia Yan recognized it.

Looking towards the source.

Then I saw it.

An elf, dressed in a straw raincoat and seemingly wearing a green cloak, with a cold face and sharp eyes, stood on a tree branch not far away.

And around the elf's neck hung a ball of light.

Furthermore, this ball of light was more dazzling than all the ball of light that Xia Yan and Cynthia had collected before.

“Sniping Tree Owl?” Cynthia murmured.

Xia Yan narrowed his eyes.

"Cosmog said that the last remaining orb of light, which attracted it the most but whose position kept changing as it moved and could not be accurately located, was actually on the sniper tree owl."

Decidueye is a Grass-type starter Pokémon registered in the Alola region. It can completely eliminate its scent and attack when its opponent cannot see it.

"Gah!!"

Onion Soldiers were the most excited when they saw the sniper tree owl.

He suddenly stood up, his expression serious, filled with vigilance and alertness.

obviously.

Onion Soldier and this sniper tree owl don't get along well.

It's normal for the Fighting-type Farfetch'd to be at a disadvantage against the Grass-type and Ghost-type Decidueye.

Seeing Onion Warrior stand up, the eyes of the Tokis and the other little guys immediately started darting around.

But then I saw...

The Sniper Tree Owl leaped down from the branch, instantly enveloped in dark ghost-type energy, and after a brief spatial distortion, its form vanished.

A stealthy attack!

However, Xia Yan and Xiluona remained calm.

"Baruya".

Doronbaruto gave a low shout, paused for a moment, and then disappeared like a sniper owl.

Bang--!!

When it reappears.

With a hint of disbelief, the Sniper Tree Owl looked at Dralongbaruto, who had emerged from the spatial distortion together.

I never expected that "Sneak Attack" could be interrupted.

"Once this one is collected, this mission will be considered a complete success."

At the same time, I guess I've finally gotten rid of the onion-wielding soldiers.

Xia Yan twisted his neck slightly.

I've been wandering around this small ancient battlefield for three days now, searching for a long time without being able to catch a glimpse of the sniper tree owl. This time, it just came to me on its own.

"Ah."

Cynthia responded softly.

A swift and decisive victory!

Xia Yan decided to leave immediately!

so.......

hum-

The air trembled slightly, and the Beedrill, which had been quietly eating, suddenly vanished, transforming into a golden arc of light that shot towards the Sniper Tree Owl.

Upon seeing this, the sniper owl's expression faltered slightly.

Despite its equally impressive speed, it was momentarily unable to pinpoint Beedrill's location.

What kind of speed is that?!

"Beedrill, Mega!"

Xia Yan drank lightly.

This sniper tree owl is very good at concealing its presence. He couldn't tell whether it was a King-level or Champion-level bird, but it was most likely a King-level bird.

However, just to be on the safe side, Xia Yan decided to finish the job quickly and without holding back.

"Hiss!"

Amidst the seven-colored super-evolutionary energy, the giant Beedrill, wielding its long spear, fiercely tore through the air.

In the blink of an eye, it appeared before the awe-inspiring sniper tree owl.

Scarlet, narrow compound eyes; a long, sharp spear.

A seemingly unremarkable piercing maneuver, aside from its speed, was simply a provocation.

Before you could even blink, the Mega Evolution energy on Beedrill rapidly dissipated.

The sniper owl's expression froze, and it slowly lowered its head in astonishment.

The intense pain came only slightly too late.

It instantly devoured its consciousness.

It fell to the ground.

"Huh?! (It's over in a second?)"

Onion Soldier stared wide-eyed at Beedrill, who slowly turned around as if he had done something trivial, and his eyes were instantly filled with admiration.

The spear, the speed, the movements, the turn...

Cong Youbing's body trembled slightly.

It was as if it saw the shadow of what it had always dreamed of in the beetle.

Xia Yan picked up the last and largest ball of light.

He said to Cynthia:

"Get out of here!"

"Pfft-"

Cynthia was amused by Xia Yan's rapid transformation from cold to funny.

But then the Scallop immediately ran up to the Beedrill.

thump--

"Gaga!! (Master!!)"

Chapter Seventy-Three: So that's how it is! So that's how it is!

Clang!

The long-sealed door opened again.

Before the Sun and Moon Altar, the four island guardians, including Tapu Koko, are waiting here.

Upon seeing Xia Yan and Xi Lunna emerge from the crowd, they immediately went to greet them.

just.

Something seems to have wandered in from somewhere?

Holding a slender green sword, the Onion Warrior cautiously stepped out of the ancient gate, looking left and right with utmost care.

Boom!

Hearing the sound of the door closing behind him again, Cong Youbing was startled and turned around to look, only to find that the world it knew had disappeared from its sight.

"Gah!!"

Xia Yan and Xiluona both facepalmed, looking at its sorrowful appearance, not knowing what it was so excited about.
