Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

boom!!!

Just as Xia Yan had this thought, a deafening clap of thunder suddenly struck from the sky.

Followed by.

The swirling black and red energy slowly condensed into a form.

Like Hoopa, its huge body, gray with pink accents, resembled a giant. Its braids grew larger and stood upside down, and its horns also grew longer.

and.

It has six arms that can detach from its body at will, and on each arm are golden rings just like Hoopa's.

Its appearance is exactly what Hoopa looks like after his power is unleashed.

Or.

This is what Hoopa should have looked like.

"Hu-pa-!!"

Hoopa stretches out its body and roars.

The impassioned voice was filled with an overwhelming aura of anger, and was surrounded by wisps of dark red mist.

Those bloodshot eyes.

They immediately identified Xia Yan and Hu Pa behind him.

"Fishing, fishing, fishing!"

Hupa was immediately jolted awake.

at the same time.

Mayari and Balza, who had noticed something was wrong early on, finally arrived.

They were all stunned when they saw the enormous figure of the liberated Hoopa.

“Hu...Hupa?” Mayali murmured, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

Balzac, however, noticed the "Bottle of Punishment" lying on the ground not far away, now reduced to fragments, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Hoopa!"

Hoopa ignored them and reached out to grab Xia Yan and Little Hoopa.

"Star Shattered!"

In this regard.

Xia Yan also responded immediately.

He placed the handkerchief in his arms, raised his arm immediately, and squeezed it tightly.

boom!!

The golden stars that fell fiercely shattered and scattered, and the force they released slammed into the outstretched hand of Hoopa.

"Hoopa!"

Hupa, who was slightly in pain, narrowed his eyes.

next moment.

It then gathered its arms at its chest, and the swirling evil energy instantly converged, emanating a terrifying aura.

Evil Wave!

"Togekiss, Sylveon, Sirfetch'd!"

The surging evil energy was like a venomous snake winding its way in, swift and ruthless.

Upon hearing this, the three little ones immediately responded.

The bright white "air slash" carried the moonlight that scattered with its pure white hue, and the magnificent lance that was thrown out.

"Hoopa!"

But Hoopa seemed to have been prepared, as three golden rings flew out from its other three hands and landed in front of the three attacks.

As the space inside the ring distorted, the attacks from Togekiss and the other two little guys disappeared after entering the ring.

However, the "evil wave" that liberates Hoopa still comes rampant.

hum-

Xia Yan's Poké Ball quietly opened, crackling with golden electricity and interwoven with dazzling rainbow light. The Mega Beedrill, which had instantly undergone Mega Evolution, met the attack head-on.

boom!!!

The dense and solid "evil wave" exploded with a roar, and the cold, blue insect-type energy also quietly dissipated.

The giant Beedrill flew backwards.

Its scarlet compound eyes stared intently at the giant before it.

Very strong!

Even though Xia Yan said that Hoopa was only the strongest "Trainer", its strength was still very powerful.

"Can you guys see if you can repair the 'Bottle of Punishment'? I'll lure it away first!"

After calling out to Mayali and Balza, Xia Yan pulled on the reins, mounted the Spirit Horse, and quickly galloped off in another direction, surrounded by the elves.

"Hu-pa-!!"

Seeing this, Hupa, who was in charge of the liberation, followed without hesitation.

Watching Xia Yan and Jiefang Hupa disappear into the distance, Mayali and Balza breathed a sigh of relief.

The pressure exerted on them by liberating Hoopa was no less than that of Deoxys during the day.

"If Xia Yan wins the championship, he'll be alright, right?"

Mei Yali looked at her brother.

Since Xia Yan was able to defeat Deoxys, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to beat Hoopa, who is about the same level, right?

Balza sighed helplessly, "I hope so."

He knew that.

The consequences of Hoopa going berserk could be terrifying.

That cannot be measured simply by the power to unleash Hoopa.

"Then let's hurry up and see if we can repair the 'Jar of Punishment'."

The two hurriedly ran towards the pile of debris.

just.

When Balzac and Mayali saw the shards scattered on the ground, they were both stunned.

"Shattered...shattered so completely?"

Not only was the body of the "Bottle of Punishment" broken, but Balzac had already come up with a way to repair the damaged pot.

The restoration was much simpler than the creation of the "Punishment Pot" by their great-grandfather.

But now...

Balzac picked up the pieces.

All I saw was...

The most important thing about the "Pot of Punishment"—those small golden rings that stabilized its sealing power and contained Arceus's power—had all shattered.

In other words.

This "Judgement Pot" is completely broken.

They simply don't have the capability to repair it.

"We must tell Xia Yanjun this news immediately! We need to come up with a new plan," Balza said in a deep voice.

If the "Punishment Jar" cannot be repaired, what will happen to the rampaging Hoopa?

After all.

The current Hoopa is just a source of energy; it can't even be considered a Pokémon, and it seems unlikely that it can even be captured or defeated.

Balzac hastily summoned his warrior eagle.

"I'm going to chase after Xia Yan, the champion!"

...

...

In the shadows of a corner of the desert city.

Suzuki looked up at the giant that flashed by so quickly, and at Natsuhiko being chased by it.

"What a pity. That guy isn't dead yet."

otherwise.

Even without unleashing Hoopa's power, he could force Xia Yan to ask the questions he was curious about.

just now.

His spirit had more important things to do.

"But it's alright."

Suzuki raised his face with a faint smile.

"Please put in a little more effort and help me finish this last thing."

All the preparations were complete, and he was just waiting for the final moment.

Suzuki couldn't help but feel excited whenever he thought about how something he had been looking forward to for so long was about to come to fruition.

Just like when he stood at the pinnacle of power and strength in the elven world.

As for...
