Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

With a faint whooshing sound and the sound of air exploding.

Mega Latios, carrying Xia Yan, burst out of the swirling rainbow energy, its wings outstretched like a glider, and its speed suddenly increased.

aims.

Heading straight for the Hoenn region, to the Sky Pillar!

Even if Xia Yan goes to help resolve the conflict between Groudon and Kyogre, he can't do much to help Daigo and the others; at most, he can only relieve some of the pressure.

Ultimately, the only thing we can rely on is Rayquaza.

During rapid flight.

Xia Yan held a brand-new national edition of the map in his hand, using its navigation function to guide his way.

Simultaneously.

This encyclopedia also contains Porygonz Z.

It can make the encyclopedia more efficient.

He also recorded all the information in the encyclopedia so that Xia Yan could better replicate it after he returned.

...

...

Hoenn region.

Pillar of the Sky.

Riding in his Mega Latios, Xia Yan arrived at the scene as quickly as possible.

Even Xia Yan was secretly astonished when he saw the huge and towering building in front of him, which was surrounded by terrifying air currents.

Towering stone pillars, engraved with ancient patterns, rise into the clouds on all four sides. Moss-covered stone steps lead to the clouds above. Vines grow on both sides of the world, and grass sways in the wind, showing great resilience.

It's hard to believe that such a building was constructed by the Meteor People a thousand years ago. The level of technology at that time was incomparable to that of today.

"Did the extremely strong airflow limit the possibility of reaching the top directly?"

Latios led Xia Yan to the middle of the Sky Pillar, but they could not go any further.

Just like the towering tower that pierced the clouds in the alternate dimension of Liekongzuo back then.

"Let's do it here."

He patted Latios on the neck.

The human and the elf entered the Sky Pillar through the window.

"Oh my god~~"

Empty?

Xia Yan's eye twitched.

Looking at the grand and imposing interior of the Sky Pillar, one has to admit it.

In terms of residence alone, Rayquaza is probably the most impressive of the Hoenn three.

There's no way around it, that's the level of prestige it exudes.

Buzzing—

Xia Yan seemed to feel something.

He reached into an inner pocket and took out a meteorite covered in bumps, the faint light emanating from it becoming increasingly apparent.

"Do you also feel the threat from Rayquaza?"

Having absorbed a large amount of the cosmic virus that had been deprived from the individual, the latent cosmic virus activity within this meteorite was finally activated.

just.

Xia Yan didn't know how long it would take, or how many things it would have to go through, before it could be officially born as Deoxys.

"If I had known, I would have asked Individual Two."

After putting away the meteorite, Xia Yan walked towards the interior of the Sky Pillar.

Based on time calculation.

At this time, Qianli should be leading Manch in special training on the fiftieth floor of the Sky Pillar.

This is also the highest level that humans and elves can reach under normal circumstances.

"Os!"

Suddenly.

Latios frowned, and then a milky white aura surged from his mouth. Under the impact of the blazing light, a dark figure that had just emerged from the wall was blasted into his arms.

It is a wandering night spirit dwelling within the pillar of the sky.

And it was this attack that caused the commotion.

"Who?!"

A sharp shout came from inside.

Accompanied by hurried footsteps.

The first thing that appeared in Xia Yan and Latios's sight was a plump desert dragonfly.

Upon seeing Latios and Xia Yan, Flygon immediately became wary.

Followed by.

Two figures, one large and one small, then appeared.

Someone come here.

It was Qianli, who looked somewhat disheveled, and Manchong.

"who are you?"

Qianli frowned, staring intently at Xia Yan with a serious expression.

Senri could sense a considerable threat from Latios.

This shows that Xia Yan is definitely a very strong trainer.

But at this time.

All the powerful trainers in the Hoenn region should have been secretly summoned to Sootopolis City to deal with the riot caused by Groudon and Kyogre.

Upon seeing the two of them, Xia Yan showed no sign of panic.

He took out the Pokédex and waved it in front of them.

"Illustrated guide?"

Upon seeing the illustration, the two were visibly taken aback.

“Mr. Senri, I am Natsuhiko from the Kanto region. I have been entrusted by Grandpa Zivchi Mujin to come and help,” Natsuhiko said.

With the illustrated guide serving as proof of their identities, the two's wariness and subtle hostility towards Xia Yan quickly disappeared.

"You shouldn't be here."

But Qianli shook his head and added, "At this time, you should go to Liuli City to help."

"Then why is Mr. Qianli here?" Xia Yan asked with a smile, not angry at all.

"I......"

Manchong also looked towards Qianli.

although.

Manch's biggest wish is to become a top trainer under the tutelage of Senri.

but.

It's not during this time period.

Sooto City is suffering the greatest destruction in the Hoenn region.

But he and Qianli were huddled in such a place for special training. Even Manchong, who wanted to receive special training from Qianli the most, was already full of doubts and confusion.

However, Chiri didn't seem inclined to explain. Mitsumori asked several times, and Chiri always brushed it off with "training hard."

The real reason.

It's because climbing to the top of the Sky Pillar is not easy.

The passageway leading upwards is so narrow that even a normal adult cannot pass through it; only a small child can manage it.

Moreover, all the mechanisms and gates of the upward passage are on the fiftieth floor, requiring someone to operate the mechanisms below while a child crawls through them to reach the top floor.

This requires a great deal of tacit understanding between the two people.

That's why Qianli is here for special training to cultivate their teamwork.

But Xia Yan's sudden appearance disrupted Qianli's initial plans.

“I came here for the Sky Rider. So, Mr. Senri, we have the same goal.”

"Liekongzuo?" Manchong glanced at Qianli, who had a serious expression, and then at Xia Yan, who had suddenly appeared, indicating that he had never heard of this name before.

Qianli frowned. "But you can't offer much help here."

"Do not."

Xia Yan walked past the two people and arrived at the open space in the center of the fiftieth floor of the Sky Pillar, looking up at the ceiling.

More than a thousand years have passed, and the structure here is still so sturdy.

The wisdom of the ancients!

"What do you want to do?" Qianli vaguely sensed that Xia Yan didn't seem to be planning to follow the usual procedure.

"I have some news for you, Mr. Qianli." Xia Yan still looked up. "The League is trying to use the Crimson Orb and the Indigo Orb to quell Groudon and Kyogre. Guess who was chosen to be in charge of this?"

"Who?"

"Your son Ruby, and Dr. Birch's daughter Safia."
