Pokémon: Starting with a Bound Entry System

Chapter 481: A Baffling Trainer from the Bear Country

April 3rd.

After all the competition rules were announced, Hikaru set off with the two girls.

It wasn't without some minor incidents along the way.

For example, after learning the rules, the first teammate Ash thought of was Hikaru.

However, Hikaru, having already formed a team, naturally refused him and recommended Luo Chen instead.

Without saying goodbye to his old friends and without using Latias, Hikaru used the most common mode of transportation—an airplane!

Because the locations of the secret realms were random, many highways or railway tracks could easily be cut off by emerging realms. As a result, these modes of transport were not emphasized later on.

Besides, they had plenty of time. Rather than troubling Latias to fly, it was better to take a plane.

But this way, he was surrounded by three beautiful girls.

The other one, naturally, was Latias in her transformed state.

Their first destination was Florida, where the God of Nightmares was said to reside.

Hikaru didn't deliberately seek out other competitors. The reason he chose this state was that it was the closest to his current location.

According to rumors, information about the appearance of the God of Nightmares had just been revealed in Florida.

Many residents were already complaining about having constant nightmares recently.

As soon as he walked into this state, even without using his Aura Force, Hikaru could feel a palpable sense of resentment coming from every corner. This resentment manifested as sleep deprivation.

Avoiding sleep could avoid nightmares.

"To be able to affect so many people, this Pokémon is so powerful."

Watching the middle-aged women on the street who could start arguing at the drop of a hat, Sakura whispered.

"Each of these Legendary Pokémon has a unique ability," Xue Nai chimed in from the side. After speaking, she glanced at Hikaru.

Hikaru had two such Pokémon.

Although they hadn't fully grown yet, once they did, they would be no less powerful than the God of Nightmares here.

"Are you sure you want to go find it?"

Sakura looked at Hikaru nervously.

She had never been on an adventure anywhere since she was a child. Her mother had also gone missing during the battle between Kyogre and Groudon.

Therefore, she had a natural sense of fear towards Legendary Pokémon.

This was also why she was particularly scared when she saw Hikaru dare to take Latias to Lugia's side.

Of course...

Latias didn't count...

Hikaru said softly, "Not necessarily. We're just here to take a look. Latias will protect us."

Latias nodded at the opportune moment.

As a top-tier Elite Four-level Pokémon, with the boost from her skills and Mega Evolution, she could defeat an ordinary Champion-level Pokémon.

It could be said that as long as the opponent wasn't level 100, Hikaru felt he could handle it (scratch that), he could run!

The "little plane" nickname wasn't for nothing.

"...Latias is very reliable."

Xue Nai, who knew Latias's abilities, wasn't too worried.

"Alright, then let me see what this nightmare is all about!"

A sharp glint flashed in Hikaru's eyes, and his Aura Force quickly blossomed.

Aura Force was definitely the best means of detection.

Under the perception of his Aura Force, strands of black energy appeared in his vision.

This energy roamed unconsciously above the entire town.

"Covering such a wide area, this is the real God of Nightmares..."

Hikaru felt quite emotional.

The area covered by his Aura Force could now detect up to thirty or forty kilometers, but the area covered by this energy was already larger than the entire region.

Looked at this way, the entire Florida region should be covered by the God of Nightmares' energy.

Indeed, none of these Legendary Pokémon were simple.

"Hmm?"

Under the perception of his Aura Force, a young man with blonde hair and a shirt walked over. A competition-specific Rotom followed beside him.

Clearly, this was a competing trainer.

"The so-called number one trainer from the Huaxia region, Hikaru?"

The young man spoke fluent English, sizing him up with interest.

"The competition hasn't started yet. I don't accept challenges."

Although he didn't speak English, his Aura Force allowed him to understand the meaning behind the other party's words.

Flipping through his memories, Hikaru quickly found him in the opponent information he had checked.

A Senior Division trainer from the Bear Country—Yaming.

He was a trainer specializing in the Water type, with his main Pokémon being Empoleon, Gastrodon....

But the Chinese words spoken to the other party needed to be translated by the Rotom flying beside him.

However, his refusal of the battle didn't make the other party leave. Instead, he glanced around Hikaru and said meaningfully,

"I didn't come to challenge Mr. Hikaru. I just wanted to get to know you. I didn't expect Mr. Hikaru to be a man of passion..."

Hikaru's expression turned cold. "Is this the attitude of someone who wants to get to know me?"

"Nyuun!"

A powerful psychic force instantly enveloped the area where the few of them were. In an instant, Yaming felt as if his whole body was filled with lead, and his body immediately sank, falling to the ground.

Psychic?

This thought flashed through his mind, but he hadn't seen any Pokémon!

Then he saw the red-haired girl behind Hikaru.

It was coming from her!

Such psychic power...

"Apologize!" Hikaru said coldly.

With his Aura Force already fully deployed, Hikaru could sense the frivolous tone of this trainer from the Bear Country. Coupled with the frown on his senior's face, it made him immediately have Latias apply pressure.

After spending so long in the illusion, he felt that his emotions were not as stable as before.

Or perhaps, he wouldn't allow anyone to speak ill of Sakura and his senior.

"I'm, I'm sorry..."

Under the intense pressure, Yaming could only say aggrievedly.

Every competitor could get information on competitors from other countries.

And among this information, the most famous was undoubtedly Hikaru.

Elite Four-level trainer, the first trainer to use Mega Evolution in a competition, Legendary Pokémon trainer, Aura Force user...

With all these titles on one person, it was hard not to attract attention.

The trainers from the Bear Country were told at the very beginning of their departure that if possible, they should try to build a good relationship with Hikaru.

Perhaps they could get some information about Mega Evolution.

And the organizer of this site selection tournament, the M Region, knew very well that a power like Mega Evolution could not be possessed by a single country, otherwise, it would easily lead to one country dominating!

Therefore, they held this site selection tournament in exchange for the hosting rights of the Pokémon Championship, precisely to collect as much information about Mega Evolution as possible.

But now, before the two sides had even made contact, Yaming felt that he had already made a bad impression on Hikaru.

More importantly, this person named Hikaru dared to attack directly!

He was a Senior Division competitor, after all!

Didn't he have any face to lose?

The pressure gradually dissipated.

Yaming stood up, his face rather gloomy as he looked at Hikaru. After glancing at the nonchalant red-haired girl, he left without another word.
