Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

"of course."

At this point, a hint of pride appeared on the tour guide's face. "Our family has been living in Desert City since my great-grandfather's generation."

"So, has anything unusual happened in Desert City during this time?"

That's the real reason he needs a tour guide.

"Something special?"

However, upon hearing Xia Yan's question, a hint of doubt appeared on the tour guide's face.

He then fell into deep thought.

"If I had to say... it seems there really is one."

"Ok?"

Xia Yan's eyes brightened slightly.

"Hmm—" The tour guide rested his chin on his hand and said slowly, "A few days ago, or maybe two or three days ago, a meteorite fell on the sand dunes west of Desert City. A special team even set up a research group for this."

However, despite mobilizing considerable manpower and resources, they were unable to find the meteorite; it was probably... buried deep in the sand.

So these past few days they've been busy gathering professional equipment, and they'll start digging in the next couple of days.

"Uh... is this the special thing?"

"Yes."

But the tour guide thought for a moment and added, "However, we don't know if it's because the meteorite impact disrupted the ecological balance. Recently, the wild elves in the desert around Desert City have become somewhat irritable and even attack humans who come out to sightsee."

Sir, if you're going out to enjoy the desert scenery, please keep this in mind.

Are the wild Pokémon rioting?

That's starting to look more like it.

Xia Yan nodded and said, "Okay. Thank you."

After the tour guide left, Xia Yan leaned against the railing by the river, gazing at the enormous city.

The two little ones were sitting next to me eating delicious donuts.

"Zygard, have you noticed anything?"

The Zygard cell core on his shoulder shook its head.

All the cells here have lost contact with me.

This is the best proof that there are problems in this city.

"Bu-bu-ee!!"

Suddenly.

Sylveon exclaimed in surprise.

It stared in shock at the donuts inside its silk.

That's all?

"Chocolate!"

Fortunately, Pokkis noticed something amiss.

It pointed to the golden ring that had appeared next to it.

A hand! A hand just reached out from inside and took the donut that Sylveon was wrapped in ribbons.

Although the golden ring has now disappeared, Tokis is certain that he saw it.

At this time.

The vanished golden ring reappeared, this time next to Togekiss, its gaze fixed on the donut it was holding on its wing.

"Cha-ke-yi!!"

Seeing this, the food-protecting Togekiss only dared to steal other people's food; no one else dared to steal its food.

Facing the outstretched hand, he unhesitatingly unleashed two bright white arcs of air.

Boom! !

With Togekiss's current strength, not just any Pokémon can withstand its attacks.

The hand that had just been extended was immediately struck hard.

"Lao Lao—!!!"

A cry of pain came from the other end of the golden ring as the small hand withdrew.

"Chocolate!"

An angry Togekiss put its wings on its hips and let out a soft snort.

Xia Yan, who had witnessed the entire process, squinted his eyes.

This golden ring belongs to Hoopa.

Judging from its actions just now, it seems... Hoopa has not yet been corrupted by its original angry power?

Could it be that the root cause of what happened in Desert City wasn't Hoopa?

Otherwise, the problem would occur according to the timeline described by Kigeld.

Hoopa should be back to its original form by now, right?

To confirm my suspicions.

Xia Yan threw out a Poké Ball and summoned Alakazam.

"Walk."

After passing through the distorted space, we arrived at an ancient courtyard.

Xia Yan and Pokkis also saw the guy who stole their donuts.

Super Demon God, Hoopa!

More accurately, it is Hoopa in a punitive form.

Scoop up the little devil.

Chapter 203 Spokesperson for the Creator God!

"Pouring!"

Suspended in mid-air, it resembled the genie in Aladdin's lamp, but much smaller. It was a gray and pink elf with a pair of horn-like ears, from which hung two golden rings.

It was the golden ring that appeared when they stole Sylveon's donut.

The little guy had tears in his eyes, covered his palms, and looked in fear at Xia Yan and the few elves that suddenly appeared in front of him.

It was the very elf that Xia Yan remembered.

Hoopa!

"Chocolate!"

Pokkis pointed to Hoopa across the way and recognized the two golden rings and the arm.

"Buyi—!!"

Sylveon is even more so.

The donuts that were just stolen were its donuts.

Even Sylveon spotted a tiny crumb of donut on Hoopa's lips.

It's the land of Hu.

Like Xia Yan, he calmly observed Hu Pa, a hint of doubt flickering in his eyes.

Alakazam felt...

The guy in front of me doesn't seem to have much fighting ability.

But its powerful superpower intuition told it that the little guy in front of it was no ordinary creature, but one that could threaten its life.

"Sylveon, I'll buy you another one later," Xia Yan reassured her.

We shouldn't underestimate Hoopa just because it's in its retribution form.

The black Rayquaza that accomplished the feat of taking on seven opponents single-handedly was summoned by it.

"Bu Yi..."

Upon hearing this, Sylveon pouted, its pink eyes filled with grievance.

In response, Xia Yan could only squat down and stroke its head to soothe its emotions.

no way.

Could you expect Hoopa to spit out the donuts she ate?

just.

Hoopa, seeing the aggrieved Sylveon and Xia Yan comforting it, also suddenly felt its own grievances erupt.

At this moment, its arm was still red and swollen from Tokiss's "Air Slash".

No one comforted it.

"Pouring—pouring!!"

As Hoopa shouted, the two golden rings hanging on its ears floated up and slowly grew larger.

A thin film of space emerged in the center of the ring.

"Whoosh!"

Upon seeing this, Alakazam's expression turned serious, and the threat he felt from Hoopa intensified once again.

next second.

A torrent of water gushed out from one of the rings, swift and surging.
