Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

of course.

Poxki always manages to pull some kind of stunt.

Even so.

After things usually ended, the other Pokémon forgot about the unpleasantness and continued to fawn over Togekiss.

have to say.

The terms "big sister" and "socialite" are truly firmly in Pokkis's grasp.

"Awoo awoo—"

Nine-Tails pouted and begged Xia Yan for help.

"Alakazam, help Nine-Tails out," Xia Yan called out.

Upon hearing this...

Not far away, hovering in mid-air above the room, Hudi, who was meditating cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes.

Upon seeing the Nine-Tails' appearance, a brief moment of astonishment flashed in his eyes, but he couldn't help but laugh.

The spoon in my hand moved slightly.

The nine tails that were intricately intertwined were slowly separated by Alakazam's psychic powers.

"Awoo! (Thank you, Second Brother!)"

In response, the Nine-Tailed Fox cheered and touched its head to each of its tails, its joy beyond words.

just.

When Nine-Tails saw Togekiss coming over again, the smile on its face vanished instantly, and it turned its head away, not wanting to pay any attention to it.

"Chakoi~~"

With a smirk on its face, Togekiss scurried closer to Nine-Tails, nudging it with its wings.

"Awoo!"

But the Nine-Tailed Fox became even more arrogant, refusing to acknowledge it.

Upon seeing this.

Pokkiss's eyes darted around twice.

A bowl of shaved ice appeared out of nowhere, topped with the Nine-Tailed Fox's favorite tree fruit pieces and berry juice, emitting an enticing aroma.

Rest—

The Nine-Tailed Fox's nose twitched involuntarily upon smelling the aroma, and out of the corner of its eye, it saw the shaved ice that Togekiss had conjured.

Although it remained outwardly unmoved, the wriggling of its throat and the swallowing of saliva betrayed it.

“Chakoi—”

When Togekiss saw that Nine-Tails was still not moving, it couldn't help but show a look of "disappointment," shaking its head as if it would have to eat the shaved ice by itself.

really.

This tactic of feigning indifference to lure the enemy is most effective against the Nine-Tailed Fox.

The Nine-Tails' tail swept across Togekiss's hand, and the shaved ice it was holding vanished instantly.

Seeing this, Tokkiss was not angry at all, but instead showed a smug smile.

Approaching the Nine-Tailed Fox again, it nudged it with its wings.

really.

This time, Nine-Tails didn't put on any airs.

A short while later.

The two little ones started making a ruckus again.

"Giggle? (Wait a minute. Big Sister, you eat shaved ice to increase your resistance to ice-type attacks, so if Little Nine eats shaved ice...)"

Onion Soldiers appeared out of nowhere.

"Chakoi! (Oh, Little Nine is eating shaved ice, of course, to increase her control over ice-type magic.)"

Pokkis had an expression that said, "You don't even know this?"

This made Cong Youbing question his existence.

Is this another way of explaining it?

Then he thought of himself.

As a Fighting-type Pokémon, it is afraid of Flying, Psychic, and Fairy types, but these are not things that can be compensated for by eating.

Furthermore, if you want to enhance your Fighting-type attribute... you need a Fighting-type...

"Kuku?! (Hey Duck Bro, what are you doing? Your eyes... something's off...)"

The bear apprentice, who was standing in a horse stance not far away, suddenly felt a chill, and an inexplicable coldness spread from the end of his spine.

I noticed Cong Youbing's... gaze.

"Kuku! (Brother Duck, I'm a serious bear!)"

Such scenes play out almost every day for Xia Yan.

He was used to it long ago.

Focus your attention on the "tethering reins".

I must say, this is real needlework, the kind without quotation marks.

God knows why the "restraints" were ever woven.

Fortunately, the Spirit Horse's mane is quite useful; at least it consists of individual silk threads.

If it were replaced with the mane of a Snowstorm Horse, which is covered in solid ice, Xia Yan wouldn't know how to operate it.

"It's done."

Xia Yan let out a soft breath and looked out the window at the gradually rising white haze.

It took him all night to finally finish making this "tethering rope," and that was with the help of his superpowers.

Without superpowers, who knows how long it would take.

"Take a two-hour nap."

Xia Yan stretched, making crackling sounds as he did so.

As a superhuman, two hours of sleep is enough for him to catch up on his sleep.

...

...

Wang Guanxueyuan.

A rocky platform not far from the summit.

Surrounded by dreamlike white clouds and mist, with a touch of crystalline luster, it felt as if one were in a fairyland.

"I never expected that so many flowers would grow on this Crown Snowfield."

Although the road from Dongning Village to the Crown Temple was difficult to travel, it didn't make much difference to Xia Yan now.

The wild Pokémon active on the Crown Snowfield are actually about the same strength as the wild Pokémon in the tunnel it had previously passed through.

This is roughly the average strength of wild elves in the Crown Snowfield.

indeed.

Without human intervention, wild Pokémon are generally stronger.

However, this high level also has certain limits and ranges.

For example.

The Blizzard Kings are a clan that is relatively active in the Crown Snowfield.

Even without human intervention, their strength is considerable.

However, the resources of the natural environment, competition and conflict between the tribe and others, the hidden injuries left after several battles, and the limitations of their own talents and abilities will all become constraints on the continued growth of the elves of this tribe.

If any two or three of these factors—no, just one of them—problem, it will cause Blizzard King's power to stagnate after reaching a certain level.

And these.

This is actually a problem that trainers need to avoid.

Card--

Nine-Tailed Fox gently plucked a dazzling ice crystal flower from its tail and trotted happily to Xia Yan.

can be seen.

When these ice crystal flowers came into contact with Nine-Tailed Fox, an Ice-type Pokémon, their crystalline beauty became even more dazzling, as if they were about to bloom again.

The fairies, seeing this flower for the first time, all showed curiosity.

"I've rested enough."

Xia Yan brushed the sticky snowflakes off his clothes and looked up at the summit of Wangguan Mountain.

there.

The Crown Temple is not clearly visible.

But a towering, frost-covered tree growing behind the Crown Temple showed him the right way.

The elves immediately put down what they were doing and followed Xia Yan up the steps.

The closer you get to the Crown Temple, the more you can feel the immense size of the tree on the mountaintop.

The overwhelming aura of age caused Xia Yan and the elves to glance at him from time to time.

period.

The number of wild Pokémon and the frequency of their attacks have gradually decreased.
