Greatest Pokémon Trainer

Driven by Dream's pressing urging to hurry home.

Fang Yuan had no time to care about his disciple anymore.

He rushed straight toward Magic City, wanting to ask Dream what exactly was the matter.

Magic City, Fang Yuan Institute.

Dragonite landed from the sky, and Fang Yuan and Eevee each jumped down from Dragonite.

"Bwoo~ (Aren't we watching Hu Xiaomai's battle anymore?)"

Eevee reluctantly asked, having taught Xiao Mai for so long, it wanted to witness its student's moment of glory.

"It's He Xiaomai, not Hu Xiaomai, we've been together for so long, have you even remembered the name?"

"Bwoo! (Isn't it because you're always muttering something about Hoopa Hoopa...)"

Fang Yuan, with a headache, grabbed Eevee and started walking toward the interior of the institute.

Inside the institute.

Dream, big and small Shuckle, sat on the sofa holding tea cups, sipping hot tea, and puffing out wisps of green smoke, looking leisurely and content.

"You hastily called me back, only to find you here comfortably drinking tea?"

After entering, Fang Yuan looked at Dream and the two Shuckle with an unhappy expression.

"Mew~~" Dream put down its tea cup, its face turning somber.

"Mew~~ (There's not much of a good solution if we're not calm, we can only wait for you to solve the problem.)"

Fang Yuan and Eevee also sat down, took up a cup of hot tea that Dream and the others had brewed, and turned their attention to the small Shuckle.

This small Shuckle was lured from the Pokémon World to Earth in the future space-time by Dream, and then lured by Fang Yuan and others to be a bodyguard and a space-time mobile phone for the World Tree Dreams.

However, due to Dream being too anxious to find all the tablets, this small Shuckle was again lured by Dream to search for the remaining tablets in a past parallel space-time on Earth.

In theory, although the small Shuckle is a bit tool-like and somewhat silly, supposedly a "silly-type space-time mobile phone," just going to find tablets shouldn't have caused any big problem...

But in reality, a big problem had arisen.

The small Shuckle initially found the Grass Type Stone Tablets easily in the past space-time.

Moreover, it quickly determined the whereabouts of the Dark Type and Ghost Type Stone Tablets.

Just as the small Shuckle happily went to find the remaining two tablets, as it approached them, it discovered that these two tablets had already been seized by another Pokémon.

And that Pokémon had treated them as collectibles and stored them in Different Space.

If it were an ordinary elf, Shuckle could have stolen them directly with its abilities.

But the problem was that the opposing force was "Hoopa Unbound," a creature that could scare Shuckle out of its skin with just its name, and who surpassed even the Temporal and Spatial dragons in spatial ability. When it tried to take the tablets, the outcome was as expected.

If it weren't for the fact that Shuckle was traversing time, it would probably have been taken down by Hoopa on the spot.

Now, the small Shuckle was still living in fear... It's not fair to pit Shuckle this way, letting it compete with Hoopa for objects, Dream had really set a trap.

"Mew..."

Dream looked somber, as in its human civilization-extinct space-time, there existed a Hoopa Unbound as well.

That creature had unimaginable strength.

Even Dream didn't know how it came into being.

It had reason to suspect that Hoopa was a universal life form, like the Brilliant God and Infinity Tana, originating from a Different World, Universe, and not natively born in the Pokémon World.

Only this could explain its tremendous power.

If Dream were to place Hoopa in terms of strength, it thought that maybe the title "Top Legendary Level" would suit Perfect Hoopa.

Anyway, it certainly wouldn't be a match for Hoopa.

Then, the small Shuckle began to frantically explain the might of Hoopa.

In its Pokémon World, a hundred years ago, Hoopa, to prove its power, used rings capable of warping space to summon several Legendary Pokémon including Groudon, Kyogre, King of Holy Pillar, Black and White Dragon, mocking them while flaunting its strength.

At that time, the Pokémon World's space was being twisted under Hoopa's great force, and also the chaotic battle of numerous Legendary Pokémon.

Unfortunately, even though there were so many Legendary Pokémon present, none could stop Hoopa.

At the time, if Hoopa had continued its rampage, a small-scale or even large-scale space-time collapse would occur in the Pokémon World, which was the disaster Dream had always dreaded, a phenomenon even the Temporal and Spatial dragons could not stop.

However, fortunately, to avoid this phenomenon, at that time, under the indication of Arceus, Arceus's envoy Cyrus used the three Origins of Life from Arceus to create a Sealing Object, which sealed away most of Hoopa's strength and finally ended Hoopa's mischief.

The Pokémon World thereby avoided a crisis of destruction.

"Shuckle~~~"

The small Shuckle explained earnestly, stating it wasn't that it was timid, but that the creature was just too terrifying. Even the Temporal and Spatial dragons couldn't deal with it, let alone a tiny Shuckle like itself.

"You..."

Fang Yuan looked at the small Shuckle in silence and wanted to tell you some bad news, in a few more years, the Hoopa of your world will come out again, and indeed, a small-scale space-time collapse will happen...

"So, facing such a 'Super Demon God,' you guys don't think I can handle it, right?"

Fang Yuan looked at Dream and the big and small Shuckle earnestly.

Dream: "Mew, Mew~~ (Actually, Hoopa isn't that scary.)"

"Mew Mew~~ (From what I understand, Hoopa is very special. Its true nature is just that of a mischievous, prank-loving Pokémon that enjoys playing, and its heart isn't bad.)"
