Pokémon, you're not allowed to expel me from human form!

Upon receiving the food, Karen expressed her gratitude repeatedly while also speeding up her eating.

Seeing her like this, Luo Ke thought it best to find a place to stop and wait for her to finish eating before continuing their journey.

Even with her mouth stuffed full, Karen still shook her head at him.

At her insistence, they arrived at their destination after she had eaten most of her food.

“The geology here is different from the area we just left. There are sections here that resemble rivers, and there’s no one else around, so we don’t have to worry about being disturbed for the time being.”

Based on the results detected by Mewtwo's mental power, Rocco spoke to Kallen in this way.

Karen had just eaten so much of Roko's food, so she immediately took out a Poké Ball.

"Don't worry, my Pokémon are very strong in water. Focus on sensing them, and I'll protect you if anything happens!"

As she said this, she released a... Magikarp directly into the river!

A typical Magikarp is nearly a meter tall and weighs about 20 kilograms. If a fisherman catches such a big fish, he might have to walk a bit further home to show it off.

That's not young anymore.

But Karen, the Magikarp, is even bigger!

Luo Ke estimated that this thing was over five meters tall, and its length must be even more terrifying.

Even though its big eyes make it look rather dull and not powerful at all, Roco could tell from its leaping movements in the water that this thing's strength was definitely not comparable to that of ordinary elves.

"Magikarp, be quiet!"

When Karen saw Magikarp causing trouble, she put her hands on her hips, leaned forward, and raised her eyebrows.

When Magikarp saw Karen like this, it immediately quieted down and sat blankly by the shore.

Then Kallen took out a second Poké Ball.

"Come out, Minas!"

These serpentine elves were already terrifyingly long, but Karen's was even more developed, shrinking into the bottomless depths of the water.

Then her Milotic blocked the left side, and Magikarp and herself blocked the right side, thus clearing a suitable area for Roko.

Seeing her nod, Rocco didn't hesitate and went straight into the water dressed. At that moment, Milotic's large tail, which was hidden in the water, suddenly slapped downwards. Then Rocco felt that there was something under his feet that he could step on, allowing him to sit cross-legged and expose his head and upper body above the water.

Rocco nodded to Milos, then closed his eyes.

Milotic, Magikarp, and Kallen also quieted down at this time.

Before long, a unique wave of water spread out in all directions from Luo Ke as the core, and after Luo Ke sensed the frequency of the water wave, he also increased his perception of similar frequencies.

Normally, the process of sensing waveguides should take a long time.

But for Rocco, after confirming the frequency, it took him an extra ten minutes before he could clearly feel a force shaking inside the waveguide stone.

This is the power of waveguides!

...

Eagle City, Grass and Tree Martial Arts Hall.

Ningya has already received what Carmen arranged.

Due to the deliberate spread of information by people from Company Z, some news traveled from Daze City to Eagle City.

They're all about the Ripple Dojo moving.

It is said that Carmen, the new gym leader of Ripple Gym, once fought with Ningya to a draw.

So she came here specifically to have a rematch with Ningya.

However, since Karen had not yet come to explain the situation, this news puzzled Ningya greatly.

Although she didn't remember Carmen, if she wanted to fight her, she could just go to her door.

If Carmen were to challenge her as the Ripple Gym Leader, Ningya would not refuse.

Why did they try to take control of the dojo and make things turn out this way?

Although there is no explicit rule, the rule that a city can only have one gym is essentially an unspoken rule. Therefore, this news, coupled with the actions of the Ripple Gym, led many people at the Grass Gym to believe that the Ripple Gym was trying to drive the Grass Gym out of Eagle City.

and...

"Since you want to challenge me, and the dojo has put pressure on you, why don't you show yourself?"

Ning Ya frowned and whispered.

She always felt that this matter was not so simple, and that Carmen wanted her to take the initiative to do something, waiting for her reaction.

Can......

What should I do?

......

11. The Warriors of Waveguide

Changfeng Grass Sea.

Karen stared in disbelief at Rocco in the water.

Although it was indeed the first time she had seen someone awaken the power of aura, according to their family's records, people who normally awaken the power of aura are not very strong in this aspect at first.

This step simply allows you to perceive the waveguide and then accommodate it according to your own circumstances.

Therefore, it is already acceptable if it can initially accommodate a small amount of waveguide force.

This thing will gradually become more powerful the more it is used and the more skilled you become.

but...

At this moment, Luo Ke floated up from the water while still sitting cross-legged. After leaving the water, his clothes emitted visible heat and were quickly dried.

The blue waveguide power was compressed into streams of energy, converging on Luo Ke from all directions with him at the core.

A blue vortex appeared in mid-air.

The wind and air were all enveloped by the power of the wave, and the grass sea was blown down. Kallen also bent down and grabbed Magikarp to barely keep her balance.

"Is this the weak waveguide power recorded in the records?"

Kallen had never understood why her family was so obsessed with the power of aura, but now she seemed to understand a little.

If Luo Ke's current level of waveguide power is rated as 'weak', then imagine how strong he will become when he grows up!

Karen felt that she might have witnessed the birth of a god.

As for Luo Ke, after mastering the power of waveguide, he felt that the whole world had become clearer.

Compared to mental power, the ability to detect things using waveguides is not advantageous on the surface; in fact, it is even somewhat disadvantageous.

Perceiving resonance is never as clear or fast as a holistic scan.

However, when it comes to underground locations, bunker interiors, and biological structures, the advantages of waveguides become fully apparent.

Mental power is absolutely inferior to waveguide in terms of penetrability.

Materials that can block mental detection are absolutely useless against waveguides.

This resulted in Roco gaining a unique perspective even though he had not yet mastered the use of Aura to attack, defend, or amplify spirits.

At the same time, because Rocco has transformed into the Dark Hero multiple times, he has a more unique understanding of this power.

My own extra energy could never be as vast or inexhaustible as the energy provided by Victini, but with the power of the waveguide, when Victini supplies me with energy, I will no longer be limited to using energy to strengthen myself.

Aura power can amplify Pokémon, and with Victini providing the energy, Aura power can continuously amplify Mewtwo, making its already powerful spiritual power even stronger.

I can also amplify Necrozma into Prism Armor, amplify Twin Sheaths and Fairy King's Sword, amplify Ditto parts, and even reverse amplify Victini!

This is a comprehensive enhancement.

At the same time, using the power of waveguides for offense and defense has optimized my combat mode. While maintaining simplicity and avoiding complexity, it has also filled the gap in my limited offensive methods.

"Very strong, very good."

Luo Ke floated down from mid-air to the ground. He stopped sitting cross-legged in mid-air and opened his eyes as soon as his feet touched the ground.

At this moment, the visible aura power emanating from his body subsided.

Even without the power of wave guidance, Luo Ke now possesses a rather unique aura compared to before his awakening.

A unique quality that exudes harmony with nature and allows one to blend perfectly with their surroundings, making it difficult to leave a bad impression.

"So this is the owner of the waveguide, truly impressive."

Karen sighed, and after circling around Rocco a few times and looking him over, she smiled brightly under his gaze.

"Luo Ke, this is the first time I've seen the Aura power that has my family so enthusiastic about, so I'll teach you how to use it, and then we'll have a Pokémon battle. Show me how powerful the Aura power is!"

That's what she said first, and then Karen suddenly realized what she meant.

"Ah, but I remember that in the family records, the most suitable Pokémon for the holder of Aura Power is Lucario, and it is best to find a Lucario that can resonate with one's Aura Power, the higher the resonance, the better."

Do you have such a spirit?

Rocco shook his head, and then slowly spoke as Karen looked on with a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

"The power of aura is indeed different from mental power. The way it spreads is through resonance, so Lucario, which can use aura, is indeed quite good."

"But I don't need Lucario. I have a Pokémon that can use Aura, and its resonance with me is absolutely incomparable to that of Lucario."

Of course, Loko wouldn't be unfamiliar with Lucario, a popular Pokémon.

Its ability to use waveguides is also recorded in the encyclopedia.

But if you're talking about resonance...

As Roco spoke, he took out a Poké Ball and released Ditto, which had been watching everything.

Upon landing, Ditto burst forth with light, transforming into Rocco's appearance.

Thus, a spirit that could use the power of aura, with sufficient strength, and resonated perfectly with Roko appeared!

Loko raised his hand, and Ditto also raised his hand. When their hands crossed, the Aura resonated.

Generally speaking, the most basic benefit is that as long as the human and the spirit resonate with each other's aura, they can know each other's thoughts, feelings, location, and status.

If the resonance is higher, then they can store the waveguide power in each other's bodies and unleash it when needed.

It can also use the characteristics of sensing the other party's location to project itself next to the other party using waveguide power, thereby enabling remote communication and exchanging observations.

Rocco and the Ditto that became him both possess the same Aura.

This led to another situation that could only be achieved through perfect resonance: their waveguide power could be transmitted to each other!

Before a Pokémon battle, Roko can transfer his Aura power to Ditto, giving it a stored Aura power to use during the battle.

Just like now.

As Rocco transferred the power, Ditto felt increasingly familiar with this newfound power. After Rocco gave Ditto most of the Aura he had incorporated, it felt as if it had gained a 'high-capacity battery' that, while not sustainable, was definitely enough for a battle.

At this moment, Rocco lowered his hand, restoring his own aura power while looking at Kallen.

"So if you want to spar, you can do it now."

"My Ditto is enough to demonstrate the wonders of Aura."

......

12. You must be that phantom gourmet!

Karen finally realized what was happening when she saw Rocco's Ditto.

"Ah, I know!"

"You're the Ditto who can change into your own appearance, the one who plays in the exhibition matches, you know, the one with the phantom...?"

Karen momentarily forgot the title that followed Roco, so she briefly combined her impression of Roco with the fact that the waveguide feature was something that would never have been included in the title before, and her eyes lit up.

"The Phantom Gourmet!"

Hearing Karen call out like that, Roc sighed softly.

"It's a phantom trainer..."

"Ah... sorry!"
