"Come on, Eevee, use Yawn!"

Hearing Tyson's command, the wild Rattata quickly realized it was the target and launched an immediate attack, trying to disrupt Eevee before it could execute the move.

Having spent so much time surviving in the wild, this Rattata instinctively understood the importance of seizing the initiative.

However, watching the scene unfold, Tyson shook his head and smirked. "Too naive," he muttered.

In the next moment, fiery embers surged through the air as the Charmeleon unleashed a Ember attack, cutting off Rattata's offense entirely.

Now that Tyson was set on gathering mission points, he wasn't about to engage in a fair battle. Employing a sneak attack with Charmeleon made the fight end swiftly. It wasn't exactly honorable, but survival took priority over pride.

"If I keep this up," Tyson joked to himself, "maybe one day my shamelessness will rival Ash's plot armor when facing Legendary Pokémon!"

With Charmeleon's intervention, the battle concluded in mere moments. Rattata fainted, and Tyson earned 10 mission points.

Over time, Tyson had discovered a few key patterns about this mysterious system. For instance, the method of defeat didn't matter—his Pokémon simply needed to contribute to the battle. Additionally, defeating the same Pokémon repeatedly in a short period only yielded mission point once.

Understanding this, Tyson refrained from wasting valuable medicine on defeated wild Pokémon. As long as their injuries weren't critical, Pokémon in the wild would recover naturally.

With Rattata out of commission, Tyson pressed forward. Whether he encountered Pokémon at the Competent or Advanced levels, he wouldn't let any opportunity for points slip away.

Using Eevee and Charmeleon together allowed him to turn situations to his advantage. Eevee's Yawn would slow the opponent, while Charmeleon could capitalize on the opening to land decisive blows.

As Tyson accumulated more mission points, he used them to enhance Charmeleon's and Eevee's skill proficiencies. By refining their abilities, his Pokémon grew stronger and more synchronized with each battle, achieving both victory and growth in tandem.

Ten days passed in a flash. Though Charmeleon's power hadn't reached a new tier, it had become formidable among Advanced-level Pokémon, with few capable of matching it. On the other hand, Eevee, with the help of mission points, successfully broke through to the Advanced level and stabilized its strength.

Feeling confident, Tyson expanded his range of exploration, targeting a wider variety of wild Pokémon. More battles ensued, and the mission points steadily increased.

Eventually, Tyson encountered an Arbok, a wild Pokémon with a notable presence and strength.

To Tyson, all Arbok looked the same, but for this particular Arbok, Tyson was a familiar and unwelcome sight. Over the past few days, it had faced defeat at the hands of Tyson and his Pokémon multiple times.

The repeated failures had drained Arbok of its will to fight. Upon spotting Tyson again, its first instinct was to flee.

However, Charmeleon acted swiftly, cutting off Arbok's escape route with a burst of Ember. Meanwhile, Eevee used Yawn, having developed a strong sense of teamwork with Charmeleon after countless battles. Without needing commands, Eevee executed its move flawlessly.

The effects of Yawn quickly took hold. As drowsiness slowed Arbok's movements, Charmeleon unleashed a barrage of Flamethrower attacks.

Cornered and unable to escape, Arbok's ferocity briefly flared, but it was no match for Charmeleon's overwhelming strength. A final Flamethrower forced the wild Pokémon into unconsciousness.

Satisfied with another victory, Tyson moved on, his confidence bolstered.

Elsewhere, Caden, one of the trial participants, stumbled upon the aftermath of Tyson's battle with Arbok. Observing the scene, Caden deduced that a human—not another wild Pokémon—had defeated the Arbok.

An excited glint flashed in Caden's eyes. Unlike Rudy, who had been hesitant to confront Tyson, Caden had been actively hunting him, enticed by the lucrative rewards for Tyson's capture.

Analyzing the traces left behind, Caden concluded that Tyson hadn't bothered to cover his tracks, interpreting this as arrogance and carelessness. Confident in his own skills, Caden began following the trail, convinced that he would succeed where others had failed.

Meanwhile, Tyson returned to his cave with Eevee and Charmeleon. As they approached, Eevee began to fidget, its ears twitching as if sensing something amiss.

Tyson noticed this behavior and immediately grew cautious. "Eevee's sense of danger never lies. Someone must be nearby," he muttered.

"Let's hide and prepare for battle," he commanded, his tone serious.

Eevee's Anticipation ability had been a valuable asset during their journey, giving Tyson early warnings of potential threats. While Tyson was confident in his strength, he preferred to minimize risks, even if it meant resorting to ambush tactics.

Tyson quickly erased any remaining traces of his presence near the cave and found a vantage point to hide. He would wait patiently, ready to confront the approaching danger with calculated precision. Whether through a sneak attack or a direct confrontation, Tyson was determined to protect himself and his Pokémon at all costs.
