Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

There's more than one Cosmog; Lillie and Guzma each have one.

Xia Yan didn't know how many Cosmogs existed in this world, or even if there were multiple Solgaleos, but the one he was holding now...

"It is not fully awake yet and needs to sleep."

Tapu Moo Moo's voice first echoed in Xia Yan's mind.

His voice was very calm and steady, giving people a sense of reassurance.

Does it still need to sleep?

Xia Yan's lips twitched as he watched Cosmog smacking his lips.

So, does that mean we've become nannies?

Or, why don't you just change it back? Let's not bother exploring the truth anymore...

It's fine when Cosmogu is sleeping, but once it wakes up, with its mischievous nature, who knows what kind of trouble it will cause.

How much longer will it sleep?

Tapu Moo looked up at the sky.

But Xia Yan knew it was looking at the ultimate aura, looking at the ultimate hole.

"There is still quite a bit of time."

Are we going to sleep until Ash begins his trip?

That doesn't seem to have much of an impact on him.

If Cosmog could evolve into Solgaleo in the future, riding a golden lion would be pretty cool, right?

Fine.

Xia Yan reluctantly put Cosmogu into his arms.

This little thing isn't big, and it's a Nebula Pokémon, so its size can change freely. It's also not very heavy, so it's not troublesome to carry around.

If it evolves into a Cosmom...

Xia Yan doesn't possess the terrifying strength to lift a ton with one hand.

Look at Tapu Moo again.

The smile that appeared made Tapu Bulu feel a little uneasy.

“Tapu MooMoo, I’ve come to you to explore the black crystal for one reason, and I also have a request.”

"Moo?"

"Please help me and my Pokémon with special training!"

One of Tapu Bulu's three hobbies.

Sleep, massacre the village, special training!

Chapter 185 Tapu Bulu on the Run

Xia Yan came to Ula Ula Island to find Kapu Moo Moo mainly because he wanted to learn about the origin of the black crystal from it.

He simply believed that he had already valued this black crystal enough, and even considered it to be part of Necrozma's body.

But to his surprise, Tapu Bulu gave him a "surprise".

The black crystal was actually the true sleeping form of Cosmog.

With Tapu MooMoo's help.

Cosmog has returned to its original form.

Although still asleep, it's unknown when it will awaken.

But at least it eased Xia Yan's worries considerably.

The unknown is what is most worrying.

Xia Yan, who knew the origins of the Cosmog, was not so generous as to hand it over to the League for research.

Even.

Research on Cosmog could potentially lead to significant advancements in the League's and the Aether Foundation's research on Ultra Beasts, Ultra Space, and even Ultra Aura.

But Xia Yan still didn't intend to let others know.

The existence of the Golden Lion.

Of course, it's better to keep it for yourself.

Besides asking about the black crystal, Xia Yan's other purpose was to get Tapu Moo Moo to help him with special training.

Of the four island gods, only Tapu Moo Moo has such a "hobby".

and.

Tapu Moo's special training is very interesting.

It doesn't teach any fighting methods or strategies.

They won't teach any techniques either.

It will teach the elves how to better control their own energy.

If you understand yourself better, you will have a clearer understanding of your own position.

It was precisely because of its help that Ash's Lycanroc, which was prone to going berserk in the original story, was finally able to control its will and emotions.

Both the use of energy and the understanding of one's own abilities and will have been of great help to Xia Yan's spirit.

Especially energy.

When Xia Yan learned that the main difference between a near-Elite Four level Pokémon and an Elite Four level Pokémon was in the energy level, he had already made certain changes.

However, knowledge about this is still very scarce.

Even though Xia Yan consulted many Heavenly King-level powerhouses, including the Four Heavenly Kings and even someone like Sakaki, he still had some doubts.

Tapu MooMoo makes up for this perfectly.

What it teaches.

It's not just Xia Yan's spirit, but also Xia Yan himself.

Furthermore, there is another advantage to receiving special training from Tapu MooMoo.

That means there's absolutely no need to worry about the elves' condition.

Even when they are tired or injured, Tapu Bulu's abilities can greatly help Pokémon recover.

A training method that leaves you with absolutely no worries.

After learning that Tapu Bulu actually possessed such abilities...

Xia Yan's elves have completely "gone mad".

Especially Beedrill, Alakazam, and Infernape.

He's usually a training fanatic; once he starts training, he can't stop.

It was Xia Yan who ordered them not to overtrain, which forced the elves to suppress their restlessness.

But now.

After this worry was gone...

The elves completely "went out of control".

The training was incredibly unrestrained.

For no reason, I had a fairly good "teacher" to instruct me and answer my questions.

It can also help restore your condition unconditionally, so you don't have to worry about any hidden injuries.

Is there anything that makes them happier than this?

Gone!

Moreover, under the guidance of three training fanatics—Beedrill, Alakazam, and Infernape—Xia Yan's Pokémon's motivation was also boosted to some extent.

Even the usually lazy Pokkiss has been training non-stop.

You can imagine how good the training atmosphere is.

Xia Yan was happy to see this and had no intention of stopping it.

With such a "fat sheep" here, it would be a shame not to fleece him thoroughly.

And so.

The once quiet and peaceful canyon where Tapu Moo Moo lived began to be filled with a continuous roar.

And it's getting worse.

The shockwave made the surrounding elves think Tapu Moo Moo was angry again, and they all kept their distance.

Although Tapu Moo is known for its gentle nature, don't mistake it for being without a temper.

How the "Kapu Village" on Ula Ula Island was destroyed is no secret.

...

...

Three days later, on a morning when the sun was rising.

Xia Yan stood at the entrance of the canyon with a group of elves.

He waved towards Tapu Moo Moo in the canyon.

I am grateful for its help over the past three days.

Tapu Moo Moo hovered listlessly in the canyon.

She looked exhausted, both inside and out.

Even Tapu Moo, a legendary Pokémon that can continuously absorb energy from its surrounding natural environment, now appears exhausted.
