Elf: I have a secret realm of emerald green.

Based on his speculation and observation, it is unlikely that wild, savage perch would evolve into a pufferfish.

With the prestigious name of the Dark Tail Fish, you can ride it around the sea.

Surely countless savage bass would follow behind him, begging him to help them evolve?

But upon entering Xicui, the scene before him left him speechless...

I went to bed at 9 pm last night and didn't write much, so I'll post it all together tonight. There's a bit less today, sorry. I'll be back to 6,000 tomorrow!

## Chapter 165 The Ferocious Togekiku and the Gentle Don Shii!

As soon as Xia Shen entered Xicui, the scene that greeted him stunned him.

The small yacht that I didn't have time to bring back yesterday, which was moored at the edge of the island at Xia Shen's feet, is already covered in wounds and in a terrible state after only one day!

The surface bears traces of various moves, varying in depth, indicating that it couldn't have been created by a single Pokémon.

However, it's not entirely accurate to say how deep the damage to the ship was.

Xia Shen instantly judged that the culprits who attacked the ship were a group of relatively weak elves.

But what did its little boat do wrong? It couldn't have attacked the elf on its own initiative. What kind of bastards were so heartless as to attack even a boat that couldn't move!

The key issue is that the boat isn't even his own. How is he supposed to explain this to his father-in-law?

No, we have to teach the murderer a lesson to vent our anger!

Of course, the premise for being able to vent one's anger is that these elves don't seem very powerful.

If the ship had been blasted apart by the attack, he would have slunk away long ago.

Xia Shen angrily looked around, but the island was sunny and peaceful, quiet to the point of being eerily quiet.

Something unusual must be going on. Xia Shen took out the Poké Balls of Garchomp and Ursaring, placed his fingers on the buttons, and carefully walked into the island.

…………

The island is small, probably only half the size of Yan Yan's house.

The island's resources are not abundant; at a glance, there are only a dozen or so fruit trees.

From the perspective of wild elf ecology, the energy provided by the island is completely insufficient to support powerful elves, which is why Xia Shen is confident in going further in.

As Xia Shen walked from the beach to the first patch of grass, he tensed up, ready to face an attack from the wild elves at any moment.

Back then, the bear cubs ambushed and launched their attack from such cover. Learning from past mistakes, Xia Shen felt that the possibility of the same scenario repeating itself was not small.

Sure enough, just as Xia Shen stepped into the first patch of grass, a rustling sound came from behind. A purple sprite that had been lying in ambush for a long time leaped high into the air, flicked its palm-like tail, and slapped straight at Xia Shen.

It's a long-tailed monster hand!

Having anticipated this, Xia Shen skillfully rolled away to dodge the attack from the long-tailed monster.

Before she could even catch her breath, another "bu-yi" sound came from behind her. With lightning-fast reflexes, Xia Shen rolled over in a flustered manner, dodging the attack from the furry tail that was right in front of her.

It wasn't over yet; another white wind blade suddenly ripped through the sky, hurtling towards them.

This air slash was unlike the two previous weak tail attacks; beneath its sharp blade, there was even a faint whistling sound of wind.

Seeing the enemy's meticulously planned and interconnected attack, Xia Shen was furious. "They smashed my ship and now they want to attack my people?"

I'm going to teach you bunch of scoundrels a lesson today!

Xia Shen used one hand to unleash a swift Psychic Blast to counter the Air Slash that was attacking him, while using the other hand to throw out Poké Balls for Ursaring and Garchomp.

A flash of white light, accompanied by two deep roars, and two enormous bodies fell from the sky, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

"Roar--"

"Ow—"

The two Pokémon roared to intimidate the Pokémon that were attacking their trainer.

You petty scoundrels, do not harm my lord!

Seeing that their sneak attack had failed, the three elves stopped concealing themselves and quickly gathered together, glaring angrily at Xia Shen and the other two large creatures.

Besides Aipom and Eevee on the ground.

The third sprite flying in the air resembled a sprite egg with wings and a head.

It was none other than the Togekiss that Xia Shen had wanted to capture yesterday!

Xia Shen looked at him strangely. Compared to the last time he searched for Sticky Treasure, his luck seemed to be a little too good this time.

Is my special trait super lucky?

Pulling his thoughts back, Xia Shen turned his attention back to the tense scene at that moment.

…………

Despite the significant size difference between the two sides, the three little ones didn't seem afraid at all.

Let's not even talk about the Aipom; there's nothing strange about a monkey baring its teeth.

But why is your Eevee, which is known for being docile, making such a fierce face?

And isn't Tokiji a little angel?

That fierce expression... could it be a judgment angel?

Seeing that the two sides were deadlocked, Xia Shen took the initiative and pressed, "My ship was just sitting there peacefully, why did you attack it for no reason! And I just wanted to come in and check the situation, and you attacked me for no reason! How can you be so barbaric!"

Wait, they seem to be wild elves, so they should be more untamed...

Never mind, I'm a perfect victim this time. No matter what, I must get justice. If I can't get it back, I'll fight back!

As for compensation, let's use that elf egg that's flying in the sky as compensation!

“Pojigu—” the leader of the Pokjigu spoke with a self-righteous tone.

Xia Shen couldn't understand what it was saying, so he had to call on Zoroark as a translator as usual.

Seeing a flash of white light, another unfamiliar elf appeared, and the three elves cautiously took a few steps back.

"Buee—" Eevee shouted angrily at Xia Shen and the others, looking even angrier.

He said it's unfair that you have one more elf...

Xia Shen curled his lip, as if these three weaklings could be defeated even if one of them were missing.

Besides, I have a legitimate reason to fight; this is a righteous brawl!

"Stop talking nonsense! Give me an explanation right now, or don't blame us for being impolite!"

"Roar--"

"Ow—"

The Moon Bear and Garchomp roared in unison, encouraging Xia Shen.

Out of the natural fear of the weak towards the strong, the three little ones involuntarily took another step back.

However, their momentum did not diminish.

"Ouch!"

Now it was the turn of the snarling, long-tailed monster to speak.

[I won't translate the insults... basically he just wanted us to get out of here. Don't waste your breath on them, I could take them all down by myself!]

Zoroark seemed to be angered by Aipom's words and unusually indicated that it would take the initiative to attack.

[No rush, let's play along!]

Xia Shen told Zoroark to calm down, since he wouldn't understand even if Aipom swore, so he should just pretend he didn't know.

The important thing is to figure out how to capture Togekiss.

"If you want us to leave, fine, but fix my boat first. We came here in it, how are we supposed to leave now that you've damaged it?"

Xia Shen's words left the three elves looking at each other in bewilderment.

Is that strange-looking thing actually called a boat? Did these elves come to the island by boat?

It seems that's true; these four elves can neither fly nor swim, so it seems difficult for them to leave.

But all I know is how to destroy, not how to repair!

Although feeling guilty, Pokjigu still put on a fierce but weak act, "Pojigu—"

[They're starting to act like scoundrels. They don't want to fix it but still want us to leave. It's infuriating! Let's just beat them into submission!]

Don't be angry, don't be angry, repay evil with kindness...

Xia Shen comforted the angry Zoroark.

He was certainly not a saint who repaid evil with good; if one had to describe him, it wouldn't be wrong to call him an egoist.

His delay in taking action was naturally intended to make Pokjigu willingly submit to him.

After all, this isn't a game, and a Poké Ball isn't a brainwashing ball. Xia Shen doesn't want to use force to capture it unless absolutely necessary.

Especially when facing Togekiss, a legendary Pokémon that is said to bring happiness to both humans and Pokémon.

Although this ferocious-looking Togekiss in front of me seems only capable of radiating hatred...

…………

The game fell into a strange stalemate again, just then, a faint sound came from the bushes nearby.

Xia Shen turned his head and saw that the residents of the fourth island were walking towards him not far away.

The newcomer was plump, with gray and white fur and a curved tail.

It's a fat Eevee that looks much stronger than the three little ones... oh wait, it's a Dogecat.

However, her weak expression and disordered gait revealed that this cat was not in good condition at the moment.

"fat--"
