Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

But the sincerity and gratitude in his words were genuine.

Xia Yan waved his hand and said with a serious expression, "Since I promised you, I, Xia Yan, will definitely keep my word. I may not have many other merits, but I am a person who keeps his promises."

Hearing this, Hudi next to him couldn't help but turn his head slightly, tilting it back at a 45-degree angle.

It has to be done this way, otherwise it really won't be able to stop laughing.

Yes.

He was certain of keeping his promises, and his first words were always "a three-year agreement."

But Hu Di has never seen anyone who, after fulfilling the "three-year agreement" with Xia Yan, was able to leave peacefully.

Seriously, I'll just make the promise; whether it comes true or not is up to fate.

But Deoxys believed Xia Yan's words.

And he nodded at him with utmost seriousness.

From now on...whenever you need us, we'll be there.

This was the biggest promise Deoxys could make to Xia Yan.

And that's all Xia Yan needs.

"it is good!"

...

...

"Xia Yan."

A woman dressed in white, her clothes as white as velvet, appeared in Xia Yan's sight, carrying Gardevoir, stepping over the ruins.

only.

When he was about ten meters away from Xia Yan, he stopped with a somewhat embarrassed and hesitant expression.

Xia Yan, who was sitting on a piece of brick that was still in relatively good condition, slowly raised his head.

"Karune".

The person who arrived was none other than Karuno, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Kalos region, and also an old friend of Xia Yan.

"it....."

However, Karuno still showed no intention of getting any closer.

Kaka-

Before he could finish speaking, he heard the "click" of a spotlight flashing behind him.

Approaching was another tall woman, wearing red leggings, with pink hair in a bun, and matching pink sunglasses. She slowly lowered the camera she was holding.

The woman adjusted her glasses when she noticed the gazes directed at her by Xia Yan and Karuno.

"Sorry, sorry, it's just a professional habit."

This person is also one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Kalos region, the Fire-type Heavenly King Pachira.

As she spoke, she caught the photo that slid out of the camera, gently flicked it with a corner, and the image on it gradually became visible.

All I saw was...

In the photo, a faint ray of dawn rises at the edge where heaven and earth meet, and amidst the ruins scattered everywhere, two figures, one large and one small, sit in the rubble.

The small figure was Xia Yan, dressed in a black suit and a small top hat, with his hands on his knees and his chin resting on them.

The large figure was Groudon, who had not yet left. He sat next to Xia Yan, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle as it was gradually being painted white by the morning light, with a hint of hope and longing in his eyes.

Pachira even had a title in mind when he took this photo.

I Will Take You Flying

The reason why Diantha stopped was because Groudon sitting next to Natsuhiko was too intimidating.

Its massive size and distinct black stripes clearly demonstrated its identity and power.

Karuno and Pachira are the leaders sent by the Carlos Alliance to provide support.

They arrived first; the main group was still behind.

But it seems so.

The matter should be over.

I just don't know why Groudon is still here.

"It's okay, don't be afraid. It's very well-behaved."

Xia Yan patted Groudon's thick armor beside him and said to Diantha and Pachira.

"Roar--"

Groudon turned its head to look at the two of them and gave a soft "humph".

Karuno and Pachira exchanged a glance.

You call Groudon "good boy"?

Why are you so skeptical?

Xia Yan could only smile helplessly at the distance the two maintained, unable to offer any further explanation.

"Now that you're here, the affairs of Desert City are entrusted to you."

Brushing the dust off his clothes, Xia Yan helped Groudon up and said.

Upon hearing this, Karuno glanced at the situation in Desert City again with a bitter expression.

This incident has been a significant blow to the entire Desert City.

Countless individuals, companies, and family businesses have suffered enormous losses because of this collision.

but.

No one can say anything about Xia Yan.

If it weren't for him...

The entire desert city may have been gone last night.

The live stream allowed everyone to learn what happened last night.

said with no exaggeration.

The lineup summoned by Hoopa yesterday.

Karuno and Pachira alone could definitely not handle it.

So, Karuno still said, "Okay."

Xia Yan glanced at Karuno, who had chosen to accept, and at Pachira, whose eyes held even more curiosity, and chuckled softly.

Without saying much, he leaped up and used his psychic powers to land on Groudon's head.

Gazing at the rising sun in the distance, he sat cross-legged on Groudon's head.

"Let's go. I'll take you home."

Roar--

Groudon roared and slowly rose from the ruins.

Amidst the chaotic ruins, a huge buttock print left Karuno and Pachira speechless once again.

Groudon took a step forward, and with a brief distortion and blurring of space, it disappeared from their sight.

...

...

"Alakazam, take a break."

The seaside in the Carlos region.

A gentle sea breeze blew in, but it couldn't dispel the heat emanating from Groudon.

"Whoosh."

Hudi slowly wiped the sweat from his forehead, nodded, and landed from the air.

no way.

We can't really let Groudon walk back step by step, can we?

Leaving aside how long it takes to reach the Hoenn region and how to cross the sea in between, the lava path it leaves behind will cause considerable damage to the Kalos region.

Zygard was still keeping watch nearby.

Judging from its behavior, it probably won't feel at ease until Groudon returns to the Hoenn region.

Therefore, Xia Yan had no choice but to have Alakazam use "Teleport" to carry Groudon on their journey.

just.

Without the "anchor" left by superpowers, Alakazam couldn't suddenly become so powerful with Groudon out of thin air; it could only perform short-distance "teleportation" jumps one after another.

But yeah.

Given Groudon's size and the energy it contains, even Alakazam would find it difficult to keep up with "teleportation" in the present day.

"Tsk, if only I had let Palkia stay a little longer, it could have sent Groudon back with just one 'Psionic Slash,' instead of all this trouble."

Groudon remained silent as Xia Yan muttered to himself.

Especially after seeing the vast ocean in front of me, I didn't want to say anything.

Jump off Groudon's head.

Stepping onto the soft sand.

The "Poisonous Slab" was used to absorb the toxins from the cells summoned by the core of several Zygarde cells.

Along this journey.

Let's just consider it as helping Zygarde recover while sending Groudon home, and taking a break and some time to train along the way.
