Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Looking out into the dark cave.

"This should be it."

However, before he could make any move...

hum-

Layer upon layer of ripples rapidly emanated from the cave, and a terrifying sonic attack swept in.

The powerful sonic boom attack covered almost the entire area outside the cave, and Xia Yan was naturally the main target of the attack.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly. "A short temper."

Chapter Seventy: Soundwave Dragon

A terrifying sonic wave swept in.

"Yongji."

Yongjira stepped forward, holding up a spoon to open the barrier of superpowers.

However, this sonic attack was excessively powerful. The ripple-like sonic waves collided with Kadabra's psychic abilities, causing them to vibrate and appear as if they might shatter and collapse at any moment.

Snapped.

Xia Yan placed his hand on Yunjira's shoulder, his eyes glowing with a deep blue psychic light, and quickly merged with Yunjira's psychic power.

This prevented Yunjira's psychic barrier from shattering, allowing the fused psychic powers to become even stronger.

"Yongji!"

Yongjila let out a low shout and finally managed to withstand the attack.

It should be noted that they were currently quite a distance from the elf who had launched the attack inside the cave.

The fact that the attack could cause such great damage over such a long distance shows that the Pokémon that launched the attack was definitely not weak.

"Sonic blast."

As the sound waves gradually faded and the surroundings returned to silence, Xia Yan slowly uttered the name of the move.

With a power level of 140, this sonic attack is likely the most powerful of all sonic attacks.

There aren't many Pokémon that can use this move, and most of them are relatively rare.

Based on the white fur he collected, it's quite clear what kind of spirit lives in the cave.

call--

As a gust of wind blew, a black figure shot out from the cave, carrying a terrifying aura, and attacked his location.

"Hiss!"

The Beedrill's red compound eyes flashed with a fierce light. After flapping its wings and leaving a trail of afterimages in place, it met the attacking Pokémon.

Bang! !

Use the cross-shaped shears to counter the opponent's wing attack.

Despite Beedrill's recent significant improvement in strength, it still fell into a disadvantageous position when faced with a fierce attack that suppressed its type, and was forced back in one hit.

At the same time, the elf's hideous appearance was fully revealed to Xia Yan.

It has a pair of huge ears, a ring of white down around its neck, and a pair of exaggerated bat wings that are black on the inside and purple on the outside, with a blue wing membrane and two red claws on them.

As it roared at Xia Yan, two sharp teeth could be seen in its open lower jaw.

Each flap of the wings is accompanied by the pulsation of airflow.

Xia Yan smiled as he looked at the elf.

"It really is it, Noisy Dragon."

Noivern, a Flying/Dragon type Pokémon!

A Pokémon that he recognized very well; Ash's Noivern was well-known in the original series.

In the original story, Noivern seems easy to get along with, but in reality, this kind of Pokémon doesn't have a very good personality.

They are aggressive and hot-blooded, hostile to anything that gets too close, and sometimes they will even use sound waves to attack everything in sight.

The white fur that Xia Yan found came from the white fur around the neck of the Noivernosaurus.

As a typical omnivorous Pokémon, Noivern's favorite food is actually all kinds of ripe berries. In fact, if given ripe and delicious berries, Noivern will become extremely docile, contrary to its usual behavior.

Of course, all of this is on the premise that they are in normal times.

But right now, it's clearly a very normal period.

Looking at the Noivern's red eyes and its intentional or unintentional act of blocking Xia Yan's view of the cave behind him, coupled with the fact that it stole the Pokémon egg, it's not hard to tell that Noivern is probably in the recovery phase of giving birth.

Not the one in front of you.

There should be another female Noivernosaurus inside that dark cave.

However, even the gentlest Pokémon can become irritable after giving birth, let alone a Pokémon like Noivern, which is inherently aggressive.

Clearly, at this moment, the male Noivern Dragon regarded Xia Yan and his Pokémon as enemies.

If they dare to take another step closer, they will inevitably face the frenzied attack of this sonic dragon.

but.

For Xia Yan, however, this matter held a different meaning.

Noivern, a Dragon-type Pokémon, is produced as a Pokémon egg.

This means that there is at least one extremely rare Dragon-type Pokémon egg inside the cave, and perhaps more.

If the egg in the cave is also a Noivern, then it means that the Dragon-type Pokémon egg is at least a Noivern Pokémon egg, and not one of those "disgraceful dragons".

The value of Dragon-type Pokémon eggs is beyond question.

Even though Noivern's primary type is Flying, it is still a Dragon-type Pokémon. As long as the egg hasn't hatched, anything is possible.

But there are prerequisites.

We must defeat this Noivern Dragon in front of us!

Its strength, as roughly judged from its clash with Beedrill just now, is at the Gym Leader level!

The pristine, wild environment of this alternate dimension, the near absence of natural predators like Noivern, and the lack of human trainers make it an ideal environment for them to grow. Reaching Gym Leader level is not difficult for these Dragon-type Pokémon.

However, he's only a Gym Leader level Pokémon; Xia Yan has defeated more than just one or two Gym Leader level Pokémon.

Xia Yan's Pokémon understood his meaning and stepped forward to confront the Noivern Dragon.

Suddenly.

"sigh!!"

The two sword sheaths pointed towards the cave entrance not far away, and a dark figure quickly swept past the cave entrance and disappeared inside.

As a dual-sword sheath that has used shadows for many years, it is very familiar with this situation. In the desert ruins, it used this move to follow Hoshino Ryuzaki and enter the interior of the desert ruins.

Therefore, the double sword sheaths noticed the anomaly immediately.

Xia Yan also noticed this scene, prompted by the twin sword sheaths.

Are there others?

With a flicker of its eyes, the Sonic Dragon sensed Xia Yan's determination, but failed to notice what was quietly happening in the cave behind it. Its eyes reddened as it suddenly opened its mouth, and a rich amount of dragon-type energy quickly gathered in its mouth.

Dragon Pulse!

"Pokkigu," Xia Yan called out.

"Chocolate!"

Togekgeon charged straight at Noivern's Dragon Pulse.

The bluish-purple energy surged like a tidal wave, completely engulfing it.

But under Noivern's astonished gaze, Togekiss stood perfectly unharmed and "proudly" before it.

"End the battle as soon as possible," Xia Yan said in a low voice.

The dark figure undoubtedly indicated the presence of others, who had slipped into the cave while he was entangling the sonic dragon.

The target was obvious: the Noisy Dragon's Pokémon eggs.

He certainly didn't want to end up doing all the work for someone else.

"Yongji."

Yongjira expanded the mental field, activated the spoon, and several mental blades pierced out.

The twin sword sheaths vanished into the shadows, swiftly appearing behind the Sonic Dragon. The massive blue phantom of the holy sword suddenly stood horizontally, slashing towards the Sonic Dragon's back.

Togekiss waved its little hand, unleashing an invisible supernatural attack aimed directly at Noivern.

"Hiss!"

The Beedrill, which had just been forced back, showed no fear or hesitation. With a flick of its long stinger and a flap of its wings, it charged towards Noivern in the blink of an eye.

Xia Yan's four Pokémon attacked simultaneously.

Not to be outdone, Noisy Dragon flapped its wings violently, and a series of bright white air blades suddenly appeared out of thin air—Air Slash!

They scattered in all directions.

But at that very moment...

Roar--

A shrill scream came from inside the cave, and the Sonic Dragon's attack came to an abrupt halt. The air slash it had created vanished halfway through its flight.

The red light that filled his eyes dissipated, replaced by a dense sense of worry.

Ignoring the attacks from the Beedrill and the others, it suddenly turned around and sped into the cave.

Chapter Seventy-One: Ah Ju?

Something's wrong inside the cave!
