Pokémon: Master Pokémon has a fish-frying system.

After years of suppressed growth, the slow-moving Tsuchiya ninja underwent a dramatic transformation, becoming a masked ninja whose speed surpassed all others.

Only Umbreon with the Swift Swim ability in the rain, thanks to its near-Champion status, can keep up with Ninjamas's speed.

However, Umbreon cannot learn the Stealth Rock, which hard counters Ninjazuka, making it difficult to restrict its movement.

Unfortunately, Ludicolo and the two Pelippers in the sky are still distracting Umbreon.

Umbreon isn't known for its speed, and even with its strength, it would be too difficult for it to hold off four Pokémon on its own.

Therefore, Ninjamask easily bypassed Umbreon's defenses and headed straight for Espeon.

"Light cloth, strong spirit and focused mind."

Left with no other option, Lu An had Volcarona continue using Sunny Day to compete with Team Aqua's Pokémon for the same weather.

Espeon stopped casting its spell and, using its psychic powers, joined Umbreon in stopping Ninja Mask.

In this way, although only Volcarona was fighting for the weather, the situation at least stabilized.

With the power of the Volcano Moth, the weather battle is still steadily tilting in Lu An's favor, only the pace is slightly slower.

Lu An could already see Safia and Asha running towards him out of the corner of his eye.

Once the three reunite, they can help Umbreon suppress Ludicolo and other Pokémon, and also assist Volcarona in seizing weather opportunities, completely turning the tide in their favor.

And all of this only takes four seconds.

The spring on the opposite side also saw Safia and Asha, and naturally knew that Chao at the foot of the volcano had undoubtedly lost, but there was no sign of frustration on her face.

Even Didi no longer looked anxious; there was even a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

In their eyes, in Lu An's shadow, in the blind spot of Safia and Aysa, a Pokémon quietly appeared.

It is cicada-shaped with a hollow body, slightly different from the Iron-Faced Ninja. Its head and back are brownish-yellow, its abdomen is grayish-brown, and it has a white "halo" around its head.

It has wings, yet it can fly in the air without flapping them, and it doesn't even need to breathe.

That's why even the perceptive Espeon didn't notice its presence.

Few people know that Ninjado's evolution is different from almost all other Pokémon.

After it evolves, it will not only shed its shell and evolve into the unparalleled Ninjamask, but the shell it sheds during the evolution will also give birth to a brand new Pokémon.

This is a Pokémon that even well-informed Gym Leaders rarely know about. Its name is Shedinja, and in a very small circle of Trainers, it is also known as Shedinja.

Izumi has always suppressed the Earth Dwelling Ninja, preventing it from evolving, all for the sake of this molting ninja.

The masked ninja who caused trouble for Lu An was actually just a ploy by Izumi to mislead Lu An, Safia, and the others.

After all, no matter how high Ironface Ninja's talent in speed is, it is still just a Pokémon that is barely at the Gym level. It would be quite difficult for it to gain an advantage against Lu An's group of super-strong Pokémon.

Therefore, Izumi only used the Iron-Faced Ninja's speed to cause some trouble for Lu An and divert his attention. His real killing move was this Pokémon nicknamed Ghost Cicada.

While the Iron-Faced Ninja was drawing everyone's attention, the empty shell of the Tsuchikyu Ninja quietly gained a soul and silently appeared behind Lu An.

First strike move: Shadow Sneak Attack!

As Izumi saw Onichan unleash her attack, a glint of triumphant satisfaction flashed in her eyes.

She is one of the three executives of Team Aqua, a powerful trainer whose strength is second only to the leader Archie and Drizzle. What she wants is never just to stop Lu An from stealing the weather.

This is a life-or-death battle in the wild!

In wild battles, attacking the trainer is the most direct and effective way to attack.

After all, compared to the well-trained bodies of Pokémon, the bodies of trainers who only know how to command Pokémon are simply too weak and vulnerable.

It was so weak that even a newly born ghost cicada could kill it with a single blow.

Not only does she want to defeat Lu An's Pokémon and keep the weather firmly in Team Aqua's hands, she also wants to take the head of the investigator in front of her!

And all of this happened in less than a second!

Long live the Aqua Fleet!

Just as Quan's joy was about to spill onto her beautiful face, Lu An smiled slightly and did something that shocked Quan and Di.

He turned slightly to the side, raised his right hand, and with lightning speed reached out and grabbed something in his hand.

It was the shedding-shell ninja who had just used [Shadow Sneak Attack]!

Izumi's pupils contracted sharply, and before he could even suppress his pleased expression, he blurted out:

"This is impossible!"

The dripping creature on the other side lost its footing, leaving a large opening for Emperor Yan, which caused Emperor Yan's arrogance to surge, and it violently whipped away an Iron Claw Lobster from the Water Fleet.

"Roar roar roar roar roar roar!"

However, Di had already lost interest in paying attention to Emperor Yan's actions.

With less than three seconds left, Izumi had no way to stop Volcano.

Safia and Aysa also came to Lu An's side to help Volcano seize the weather and fight against Team Aqua.

With the weather already taken away, Team Aqua was destined to lose this battle.

Fortunately, although they lost the battle, at least the task given to them by Archie—extinguishing the Chimney Volcano—was successfully completed, ensuring that Kyogre would be the first to awaken before Groudon in the future.

Therefore, compared to the frustration of losing the battle, what Di and Quan wanted to know more was why Lu An was able to discover Gui Chan's whereabouts.

Looking at the shell-removing ninja held firmly in his hand, completely powerless to resist, Lu An seemed to read Izumi's thoughts, and raised his face:

"Aren't you all curious about why I was able to find and capture the Shedding Skin Ninja?"

Hearing Lu An's words, even though they were on opposing sides, Quan still subconsciously asked:

"why?"

On Emperor Yan's side, Di, who was quietly organizing the members of the water fleet to prepare for evacuation as the weather changed rapidly, couldn't help but prick up his ears after hearing Lu An and Quan's conversation.

He was just too curious.

It's worth noting that although Cicada is extremely fragile, so weak that any Fire-type Pokémon could easily defeat it, its Stealth move is even superior to those of other Ghost-type Pokémon like Dollop and Dusclops.

Moreover, Shadow Sneak Attack is comparable to Quick Attack and Sonic Punch in terms of casting speed. Although its power is not great, even Pokémon can only take the hit.

How could a mere investigator possibly react to Onichan's sneak attack?!

Seeing Di and Quan's attentive expressions, Lu An coughed twice and smiled brightly:

I won't tell you.
