Chapter 455 Sketching Z's Idea and the "Visitor from Outer Space"
Tapu Koko's words served as a reminder to Aoba.
Unlike the common Z-type moves, exclusive Z-moves require a base move as a foundation. Even if a Pokémon can match the move to the original move, it cannot use the power contained within it if it has not learned the original move.
Therefore, it is necessary to identify the most distinctive and frequently used moves.
After thinking for a moment, Qingyu decided to take out another Poké Ball and summon Sylveon, the main character of this time.
"Bu-i?"
Sylveon landed lightly, looked at the ground with some electric feet, and subconsciously tilted its head.
"Sylveon, do you still remember the Z-Move you used back then?"
Qingyu squatted down and rubbed its little head.
Eevee's Z-Move "Rainbow Rise" is based on a treasured move, but its effect is not to enhance the move's power; instead, it becomes a very special function.
By borrowing the power of the Eevee family members from all over the world, they temporarily strengthen themselves.
In Qingyu's opinion, it was quite reminiscent of the "Spirit Bomb" from Dragon Ball, only unfortunately it was only used once —
"If you were given the chance to use that special power again, which move would you choose to strengthen?"
"Bu-i?"
Sylveon frowned, seemingly beginning to seriously consider the issue of trainers.
Strengthen your moves?
What moves do I usually use most often?
Because it seems like it hasn't had a serious battle in a while, Sylveon, which has been languishing for quite some time, has almost forgotten its "signature move".
I remember now! It's—the Blood Moon?
Sylveon recalled its most frequently used moves.
A moon bear from Beishang Township learned powerful tricks from it through sketching and modified them by itself.
If it's this move, its power after being enhanced should be terrifying!
but----
Sylveon had a vague feeling that the answer wasn't quite right.
Wait, shouldn't it be sketching?
Including Blood Moon and the previously learned Electric Beam, as well as other "niche treasures" tricks mentioned by trainers, they were all learned through sketching.
Besides using it to imitate other Pokémon's moves, the enhanced sketching skills might also help one improve their drawing skills to a higher level, reaching a more sophisticated level.
"Buyi!"
After finding the correct answer, Sylveon no longer hesitated and immediately looked excitedly at Qingyu, wagging its tail at him and giving him a frantic hint.
After evolving, Sylveon's tail is no longer as fluffy as Eevee's, and most of its functions have been replaced by the more flexible ribbons, so its presence is actually not very noticeable.
But the high-curved pink tail gives Qingyu a resemblance to a quill pen.
Therefore, what it wants to express is self-evident.
makes sense.
If we're talking about the most distinctive move of our Sylveon, it has to be Sketch!
Sketching came first, then other illegal techniques emerged, and Xianbu is probably the only one who can master sketching.
"Then it's settled."
Qingyu nodded to Sylveon, then looked at Tapu Koko.
"Is sketching allowed?"
"It should be interesting to see a special move that can utilize any attribute without needing any attribute energy, and has the highest potential, after it gets stronger by leveraging the power of the Ultimate Aura!"
'
'
Tapu Koko was somewhat confused.
Isn't sketching a skill that only Tutu dogs can learn?
It really wanted to ask directly, but seeing Qingyu's matter-of-fact look, it felt that it might be because it had too little contact with other ordinary Pokémon.
After all, he was that person's envoy, so it wouldn't be surprising if he pulled out some Pokémon and moves.
Of course, but how should we strengthen it?
"Kapoo Minkling asked in return."
"Hmm—let me think about it!"
Qingyu fell into deep thought again.
At this moment, Qingyu is like a buyer who pays for goods, while the island guardian deity in front of him has become a supplier who provides processing services, and he needs to confirm the direction according to the conditions proposed by the deity.
But what other creative tricks can you do with sketching?
Mechanistically speaking, sketching is a powerful learning ability of the Smudge Dog, which allows it to analyze carefully drawn moves and transform them into a force that it can freely use.
Tutu dogs have very flexible minds, but due to their limited physical abilities, most of their offensive moves are useless.
But Sylveon is different. Its special attack ability, especially its performance in Fairy-type moves, is not bad, and its Fairy Skin ability further expands its advantage range.
So, the answer is quite simple—
"Can exclusive Z-Moves, like type Z-Moves, provide different boosts depending on the move?"
Qingyu asked curiously.
In fact, Tapu Koko already had a general idea of what was going on when he spoke.
Of course, this is the most basic application of Z-pure crystal.
However, this would slightly weaken the enhancement effect.
It also didn't expect that Qingyu's final answer would be so simple.
Originally, according to Tapu Koko's plan, it was thought to be some impossible idea such as "sketching the opponent's moves and releasing them with greater power first, catching the opponent off guard".
As a result, Qingyu's answer was too simple, which made it seem a bit strange.
"That's okay, universality and flexibility are the most important."
Qingyu nodded, seemingly unconcerned.
While having a single, effective trick can be advantageous, overuse will eventually be countered. Therefore, for someone who wants to improve their world ranking and face more formidable opponents, flexibility and adaptability are preferable.
I understand your request.
Tapu Koko's voice came again.
However, just as Qingyu thought he had succeeded and was preparing to ride the Salamence back the way he came—
However, what benefit would it bring me to help you?
Tapu Koko's next words suddenly made Qingyu blink.
The communication with the other party just now went so smoothly that he completely forgot that he was the one who needed their help, which was somewhat contrary to the natural order.
The four legendary Pokémon have never been easy to deal with; rather than "lawful," "unruly" would be a more accurate description of them.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to get them to help for free.
To achieve your desires, you must engage in an equivalent exchange.
The aura around Tapu Koko suddenly surged, and even Milton behind Qingyu subconsciously narrowed his eyes.
So, let's trade!
I will accept your request, but in return, you must complete one of my trials.
"Tell me about it first."
Qingyu did not express her opinion, but waited quietly for it to continue.
He already had a general idea in mind, but it was better to find out the specifics first.
This is not a difficult task for you.
Tapu Koko waved his arms and pointed in a direction with a finger that looked like half a bird's beak.
[Recently, unusual spatial fluctuations have been frequently observed above Akala Island, which may indicate that some powerful monster is about to cross space and arrive in our world.]
Given Tapu Lele's personality—I'm worried she'll abandon the other person, so I could ask you to investigate the situation.
And will it solve the problem?
"Okay." Qingyu agreed without hesitation.
Although Tapu Koko said it rather subtly, he, who knew the inside story, immediately understood what it meant.
In summary: Ultra Beasts are coming! Help them!
Ultra Beasts are extradimensional monsters that appear in Alola through mysterious Ultra Holes, some of which are so powerful that they rival even the island guardians.
They can be described as "visitors from outer space".
Most of them, in turn, follow their instincts and cause serious damage to the environment, making them a common enemy of both humans and Pokémon.
Having come to Alola, Aoba had wondered if he might "just happen" to encounter an Ultra Beast.
As it turns out, his ability to absorb divine beasts is still working.
During his time in Alora, he was staying at a resort on Akala Island, so helping out was a natural thing to do.
Perhaps he will also be able to make contact with another island god, Tapu Lele.
"Then, as agreed, I will manufacture the Z-Crystal you need as soon as possible."
Come find me on Meile Meile Island in about two weeks.
Seeing that Qingyu had agreed to his request, Tapu Koko nodded, then transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared into the entrance of the war ruins, just as before.
"Why did you leave?"
Qingyu looked in the direction it disappeared, and a sense of curiosity suddenly arose in her heart. According to the setting, the power of the Ultimate Aura comes from Necrozma, and its essence is a special kind of light that can serve as a medium for the transmission of power.
In ancient times, the Radiant God and the Sun and Moon Gods visited Alola and brought this special power with them.
As the island gods worshipped by the locals, the four Tapu have also fought against the sun and moon gods.
As for the result, of course, it was a loss.
Solgaleo and Lunala are genuine cover gods, born in light and possessing a portion of the world's origin power.
However, after submitting to the Sun and Moon Gods, the four Tapu also gained the freedom to use the Ultimate Aura.
This is the fundamental reason why they can create Z-pure crystals by hand. Essentially, this power comes from the Sun and Moon Gods, not from something they were born with.
so----
Cosmog, a small nebula, will periodically descend upon the Alola region, absorbing enough energy and evolving before leaving.
Does that mean that the Sun and Moon Gods are actually using the four of them as babysitters?
Qingyu could only keep this question to herself.
If you were to actually ask, you'd probably be silenced by four Tapu!
After the grand celebration ended, it was already late at night.
Aoba also returned to his temporary residence, "Haonohonoh Resort," which is said to be the most luxurious hotel in the Alola region, and also has a big star who is as famous as the Royal Masked Man staying there for a long time.
A Pokémon star named Kijiro.
In the game, it teaches the protagonist Pikachu the Volt attack, and it does look quite cute.
So you've monopolized Volt Attack and won't let other Electric-type physical attackers learn it, huh?
However, jokes aside, Qingyu wasn't really interested in it.
After returning to his temporary room, he should have been resting by now.
But after receiving some information from Tapu Koko about the upcoming appearance of Ultra Beasts, he decided to prepare for the worst.
"Marshad, please open a passage to the reversed dimension for me."
Qingyu looked at the shadow in front of her and smiled.
"Martha!"
Marshall, who was lurking in his own shadow, did not show himself, but his movements were extremely swift. Almost instantly, the center of his shadow began to ripple.
His team doesn't have any Ghost-type Pokémon, but fortunately he has Marshadow, an "unofficial member" who can use the alternate dimension to connect to the reverse dimension at any time, making it convenient for him to call for teammates.
Almost immediately, a ruby-like eye appeared in the shadows, followed by a familiar low growl from Qingyu.
What's up?
A telepathic message came from Giratina, so fast that Qingyu subconsciously wondered if it was possible that Giratina was also watching him through bubbles in the Inverted Dimension.
However, legendary Pokémon shouldn't be that idle, right?
"Are Palkia and Dialga still with you? I need their help with something."
Qingyu got straight to the point.
Knowing more legendary Pokémon has real benefits, such as being able to save a lot of time by using their power when encountering situations that are difficult to handle on your end.
Before the Ultimate Hole appeared, its impact on space was negligible, so even the Four Island Gods could not determine its exact location, only its general direction.
At this point, the Space Dragon Palkia becomes the perfect fit.
Even if it doesn't work, by borrowing the power of the Time Dragon, we can observe in advance the location where future Ultra Beasts will appear.
Very easy to use~
"roar""
For some reason, Giratina's response this time sounded somewhat weak and listless.
Could it be that it's a little upset because I didn't mention its name?
Qingyu thought to herself subconsciously, then quickly shook her head.
It's a dignified Pluto Dragon, after all; we shouldn't try to understand it with human emotions.
Giratina quickly summoned the Time-Space Twin Dragons.
They were engaged in a fierce battle in the reversed plane, and were therefore very resentful that the arrival of uninvited guests had interrupted their battle.
But when they discovered that the visitor was their "good older brother" Giratina, and that it was the human messenger of the Creator who had specifically requested to see them, their attitude immediately changed 180 degrees, and they became obedient and respectful to their brothers.
After learning about Qingyu's problem, the Time-Space Twin Dragons couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.
It's as if it's saying: That's all?
Such a trivial matter, yet it has alarmed both of them?
That's a huge waste of my talent—I'm truly honored!
There was nothing they could do; they couldn't afford to offend either of these two, so they could only act as useful tools, like Long and the younger brother among younger brothers.
Using the black hole that temporarily connects reality and the inverted dimension, Dialga and Palkia quickly sensed outwards and soon located an unusual coordinate.
"Is the location near Ohana Ranch, and the time is the afternoon after tomorrow?"
After receiving very accurate information from the Time-Space Twin Dragons, Qingyu nodded, then smiled and bid farewell to the three legendary Pokémon.
It seems that————
Before I can act as a narrator, I have to go and meet a certain ultimate monster from another world!
