Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

As soon as Solgaleo appeared, he didn't look at the other side. Instead, he couldn't wait to run towards Xia Yan and kept rubbing his cheek against Xia Yan's.

Xia Yan immediately smiled and patted Solgaleo on the head.

"Okay, okay—I'll definitely call you next time if anything comes up."

The little guy has been following Xia Yan since he was a nebula.

However, due to Necrozma's revival and the restoration of light in Ultra Dimension, Solgaleo and Lunala went to Ultra Dimension to help repair the world.

The Ultimate Space has been almost completely repaired, and Solgaleo has just returned when he found Xia Yan.

The Ultimate Sphere in Xia Yan's hand is the latest product of the Aether Foundation.

Giovanni's cheek twitched when he saw Solgaleo appear.

So you're really summoning a mythical beast?

This kid... he's really disgusting... so damn real.

"More genuine than me, and more shameless than me. But... that's fine." Sakaki consoled himself.

Also good.

At least he's not someone who sticks to the rules.

However, your "realism" directed at my face is really a bit too much.

After glancing once more at Solgaleo, who had leaped back onto the field, Giovanni took a deep breath.

He took out a Poké Ball, recalled Nidoqueen, and turned to leave.

Xia Yan was stunned by the skillful and fluid movements.

"Wait, Boss Sakaki, where are you going?"

Sakaki turned his head and glared at Natsuhiko with annoyance.

"do not fight."

"You, didn't you say you were going to kill a god?" Xia Yan blinked.

"Kill your grandpa."

Without looking back, Sakaki disappeared into the players' tunnel.

Kill gods?

That depends on what kind of mythical beast it is.

Giovanni has fought against and even defeated legendary Pokémon, such as Landorus, or other legendary birds like the Three Divine Birds and the Three Divine Pillars.

But can Solgaleo compare to these legendary Pokémon?

Moreover.

Even the strongest Beedrill has been defeated.

Rather than letting Xia Yan and Solgaleo have their fun, it's better to end it directly.

Sakaki had absolutely no intention of being tortured.

That's how tough we are.

Sakaki's decisive departure also officially signifies that Xia Yan has successfully advanced to the "Eight Masters" as the victor!

in fact.

Many people have noticed this as well.

Even if Sakaki loses to Natsuhiko, given the strength he has shown, he should have a high probability of standing out in the revival stage and becoming the ninth person to qualify for a challenge against the "Eight Masters".

When the time comes, it's hard to say who will be unlucky enough to be chosen by Sakaki, and who will get a spot among the "Eight Masters".

As for Xia Yan...

It's actually a good thing that he didn't need Solgaleo's help when fighting Giovanni.

After all, we'll need it sooner or later.

He hasn't forgotten how those guys betrayed him one by one during the Masters tournament.

Chapter 248 Rainbow Club

With a score of 4:1, Xia Yan successfully advanced to the final Masters level, also known as the "Eight Masters"!

of course.

This score is actually rather one-sided.

After all, Xia Yan's Infernape and Beedrill were basically exhausted after battling Giovanni's Pokémon, and didn't have much fighting power left.

And the last game.

Xia Yan also managed to scare Giovanni away with Solgaleo; otherwise, even if Xia Yan had won, the score would have been much more "tragic".

This battle made many people realize how powerful Giovanni is, and finally understand why the Kanto region is called the "strongest region".

If a gym leader can possess strength comparable to at least a regional champion, just how terrifying is Kanto?

I don't know.

Even among the current Kanto Four Heavenly Kings, there are very few who can fight Giovanni.

"Don't rush, your time to shine will come eventually."

Inside the lounge.

Xia Yan comforted Solgaleo and handed it some snacks and cakes.

Even during its Cosmog stage, it loved eating candy and other snacks, and even now that it has evolved into Solgaleo, it hasn't changed these habits.

Hearing Xia Yan's words, everyone in the private room had extremely strange expressions.

There will always be a time to play.

Then we'll have to wait until we meet them?

Will they turn around and leave like Sakaki did?

Everyone had their answer.

impossible.

Even when facing a divine beast, as long as their opponent is Xia Yan, they will not choose to give up until the very end.

As for...

Xia Yan summoned a divine beast to participate in this competition, and no one seemed to find anything wrong with it.

He himself has a very close relationship with many mythical beasts, so the title of "Mythical Beast Man" is not without reason.

Since Xia Yan was able to get some legendary Pokémon to choose to follow him and stay quietly in their Poké Balls, this in itself was one of his abilities as a trainer.

Mythical beasts, in the final analysis, are also a type of spirit.

As long as you can subdue them, there's no such thing as allowing them to play or not.

During the Masters tournament.

Didn't Daigo and the others suddenly pull out one or two divine beasts in an attempt to defeat Natsuhiko?

Since they have done it before, they have even less reason to oppose or reject Xia Yan's actions.

Even a legendary Pokémon trainer is still a trainer.

So all he can do is...

It means maximizing one's strength and striving to defeat Xia Yan in one's own way.

even.

And then there were the likes of Chi Hong and Du, who, instead of feeling uneasy after hearing Xia Yan's words, actually felt a little excited.

Fighting a mythical beast? This is an experience I've never had before.

Moreover.

Does the tacit understanding between the divine beast and Xia Yan allow them to unleash their full potential?

Rather than worrying about whether Natsuhiko will summon a legendary Pokémon, Wataru and the others are probably more concerned about Beedrill, which shone brightly in its battle against Giovanni.

Having defeated Giovanni's legendary Beedrill, there's no doubt about the current strength of Xia Yan's Beedrill.

Legendary!

At the same time, Wataru and the others were also well aware that Natsuhiko's Beedrill had definitely not reached the Legendary level before this battle, but after the battle, it had entered the Legendary level.

Does that mean that battling a legendary Pokémon can, to some extent, help your Pokémon find and confirm its path towards becoming a legendary Pokémon?

This temptation was something they couldn't resist.

"What's with all those looks on you guys?" Xia Yan turned around and saw a group of people staring at him like wolves eyeing sheep. He couldn't help but take a half step back and speak out warily.

Are you all a bit slow on the uptake?

We all said we were going to bring out the mythical beasts, and none of them were afraid at all; they all looked eager to try.

Do they all have masochistic tendencies?

"Teacher Xia Yan, exactly... what is a Legendary level?"

Qinglu, who was deep in thought, suddenly spoke up and asked a question.

“Legendary level…” Xia Yan rested his chin on his hand and gently rubbed it a couple of times.

If it were before, asking him to give a reason would have been difficult; I really wouldn't know where to begin.

However, in the battle with Giovanni just now, Natsuhiko and Beedrill used a combination of Bond Phenomenon and Mega Evolution, and their hearts were almost completely in sync.

Therefore, everything Beedrill can sense is all that he can sense.

"...In my opinion, the so-called legend is less a level of strength and more a kind of... self-awareness."

"Self-awareness?" Watari looked puzzled.

Similarly, everyone in the private room...
