Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

it.

I sensed a slight threat!

Although it's not big.

The sound might even make Dorambaruto feel threatened, so wouldn't that mean...?

Xia Yan also noticed the changes in Dorombalto immediately.

My heart skipped a beat.

Could it be...?

There are three near-Elite Four level Aggrons here. Is there an even greater threat than this?

But then I saw...

The three Aggrons, who had been so aggressive, retreated without hesitation after hearing the dragon's roar, though their faces showed resentment.

Their reactions further confirmed Xia Yan's conjecture.

"Walk......."

But just as he opened his mouth, before he could even speak, a dirty hand suddenly reached out from a crevice in the pile of rocks beside him.

She grabbed his arm.

Xia Yan was completely powerless to resist and was dragged into the crevice of the pile of rocks.

The elves who noticed this scene stared wide-eyed.

when?

Just as they were about to rescue Xia Yan, they saw Xia Yan's hand reaching out from the crevice in the rock, indicating that they didn't need to be nervous.

Then, as the red lights of the Poké Balls flashed, one Pokémon after another was captured into them.

After a moment's thought, Dorambaruto also disappeared again.

Beneath the cracks in the rock pile was a small space.

The person who dragged Xia Yan into this was naturally the "wild" little girl with whom he had gradually grown closer over the past few days.

"Shh-"

She put her index finger to her lips, a simple gesture that made Xia Yan understand and temporarily put aside his doubts.

However, he wasn't completely unprepared.

Alakazam, the only Pokémon that wasn't caught in a Poké Ball, suddenly appeared beside Xia Yan.

They watched the disheveled girl in front of them warily, as well as the staff-tailed scale dragon that had its arms outstretched under the rock, enveloping them.

It's only because Xia Yan is alright; otherwise, even if this Kommo-o davidra posed a great threat to Alakazam, it would have attacked without hesitation.

But now.

Everything returned to calm.

Through the cracks between the rocks, the girl's bright eyes peered cautiously outside.

Xia Yan also looked out of the rocks with some curiosity.

"Roar--!!"

It was that high-pitched, loud, and powerful dragon roar once again.

However, this time the sound was much louder than before.

We're closer now!

The sound echoed throughout the rocky area.

Xia Yan noticed.

The staff-tailed armored dragon, with its arms outstretched and a solemn expression, trembled slightly as its thick metal shell roared.

But the sound seemed to be absorbed.

"Sound insulation" properties?

Considering that the Kommo-o-Tac had always approached the girl silently, it's clear that it had mastered the "soundproofing" property to a very high degree.

And it seems that it is doing this now in order to guard against the dragon's roar.

The girl suddenly lay down on the rock, her eyes fixed on the figure rapidly approaching through the crevice, its movements accompanied by swirling air currents.

Xia Yan followed her example, slowly lying down on the rock and looking out of the pile of rocks.

When they saw the elves outside.

His pupils suddenly contracted.

Its body is blue and black, with three pairs of jet-black wings and three evil heads. The one in the middle has gleaming eyes, while the two on the sides look more like arms. A thick tail whips the air back and forth, and two hairs hanging from its lower abdomen that look like feet, but they are not feet.

Below its neck in the middle, a flash of iridescent light disappeared amidst its thick, dark fur.

Three-headed dragon!

and.

This is a three-headed dragon of the Heavenly King level!!

It's as if it's surveying its own territory, looking around the entire rocky area.

It seemed that it had seen the mane rock werewolves who were still lying on the ground unable to move.

It slowly fell from the sky.

His demonic eyes swept across the surroundings.

"Roar--!!"

Another powerful dragon roar echoed through the now somewhat sunken area.

The scales on the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon trembled more and more noticeably, and the amplitude of the tremors increased.

The girl reached out and placed her hand on its neck, gently rubbing it.

He soothed the raptor's barely suppressed rebellious thoughts.

It is also a pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

But this three-headed dragon was too powerful.

King-level!

No wonder Dorombalto looked so concerned and wary.

This is a threat that can be posed to it.

The roar subsided.

Seeing that there was still no movement around, the three-headed dragon seemed to have nowhere to vent its anger. It bit down on a mane rock werewolf on the ground that had lost its fighting ability, flapped its wings and flew into the sky.

With a low, painful groan and splattered crimson, the three-headed dragon slowly flew away into the distance.

Xia Yan, who witnessed the entire process, frowned deeply.

Hydreigon, a Dark and Dragon type Pokémon.

With an extremely violent and ruthless personality, they will treat everything that moves within their sight as an enemy and launch a merciless attack.

Rayquaza wasn't surprised that there were Elite Four level Pokémon in his alternate dimension.

Didn't we encounter a Champion-level Volcarona in Groudon's alternate dimension?

The elf egg that it saved at the cost of its own life is still in Xia Yan's backpack.

With such a vast alternate dimension and such abundant resources, it's not impossible for several Elite Four level Pokémon to emerge.

Moreover, it's Hydreigon, a dragon-type pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

What troubled Xia Yan was that this rocky area clearly held some secret, but this King-level three-headed dragon regarded it as its own territory.

Even the three near-Elite Four level Aggrons retreated without hesitation after sensing the approaching Hydreigon.

It won't be so easy for me to find the secrets hidden in this rocky area.

Given the monstrous and ferocious nature of the three-headed dragon, being caught by it would likely result in being turned into pieces in no time.

The mane-like werewolf that it casually snatched away is the best proof of this.

"call--"

After confirming that the three-headed dragon had left, the disheveled girl who had been comforting the Kommo-o-Tai let out a long sigh of relief and slumped to the ground, feeling somewhat powerless.

Her relieved exhale brought Xia Yan back to his senses, which had been filled with apprehension towards the three-headed dragon.

Looking at the girl, and at the staff-tailed armored dragon that had withdrawn its arms and was silently guarding her, Xia Yan remained silent for a moment before slowly saying:

"Thank you."

Even though Dorambaruto was there, even if Xia Yan didn't leave in time, the danger shouldn't be too great.

However, a fierce battle between Draco and Hydreigon is inevitable.

Xia Yan hadn't used Drambert's power for a long time. He was trying his best to forget Drambert's existence and not let himself develop a personality that was extremely dependent on Drambert.

otherwise.

Once inside this strange and powerful space, there was no need for any struggle or training; Dorambaruto easily swept through it.

But this is a situation that neither Xia Yan nor Dorombalto wants to see.

Dorambaruto can be used as a last resort to save your life, but it cannot be used as your regular means of survival. This is something Xia Yan has always told himself to remember.

and so.

He would not use Dorombalut unless absolutely necessary.

Dorambaruto also did not want Xia Yan to become overly dependent on him.

Otherwise, a single Poké Ball wouldn't be enough to restrain it; when it disapproves of Xia Yan's actions, it can simply leave on its own.

Even though Xia Yan helped it revive a Doron Mesia.

After all.
