Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

"Qiao...Ran..."

Zhulan took one last look at Qiao Ran in front of her, and then planned to continue her escape. However, it was this one look that made her freeze in place.

"..."

At this moment, she saw a scene that she could never imagine.

Just like the lightning and thunder before, the light before seemed illusory. Qiao Ran was still standing in front of him intact. Except for some torn clothes, there was no trace of burning on his body. Even his hair was intact as before.

"This……"

He himself seemed to have widened his eyes at this moment, feeling a little helpless. This scene was obviously beyond his expectations. Tapu Moo Moo's attack... had no effect on him?

Could it be that... I'm actually a rubber man who ate the rubber fruit? ? ?

No...that's not right. When did I develop this ability???

Qiao Ran’s face was full of question marks “???”, but what happened in the next second made him remember something in a trance.

Stars of light floated up from his body. Qiao Ran didn't remember having such a thing in his body, but looking at the strange light, Qiao Ran remembered something.

"this is……"

Qiao Ran remembered it very clearly.

——Some things will make him remember them so clearly.

Those lights, those glittering sequins, aren't some illusion. Isn't that... the scale powder of the Capu Butterfly?

"..."

Qiao Ran had felt the magical scale powder more than once. On that day, when he left this space, Kapu Butterfly sprinkled scale powder in the air, helping him relieve physical fatigue. However, regarding the current situation, Qiao Ran did not think it was the effect of that time.

But...

Qiao Ran felt that it was very likely that Kapu Tete must have done something secretly the night before he left Akala Island. When he woke up in the morning, feeling refreshed was definitely not an illusion, but a real thing - his body had changed.

These scale powders not only helped him resist the damage, but also gave him special blessings.

"Diedie..."

No surprise falls from the sky. Everything can be traced back to its original reason.

However, what surprised Qiao Ran was that Diedie's power could work in such a place, and the function of these scale powders was just to help him resist damage once?

"Qiao Ran! Run!"

Zhulan didn't think too much about it. After finding out that Qiao Ran was fine, she decisively pulled Qiao Ran's hand and avoided Tapu Kokoro's next attack. She was originally facing the final despair, but Qiao Ran was fine - this incident made her burn with unprecedented fighting spirit.

How he did it didn't even matter anymore.

"Ok!"

Qiao Ran also nodded. He must cherish the opportunity given to him by Kapu Didi.

However, after discovering that his attack was ineffective, the Kapu in the sky, which had been suppressed by the anger in his heart, was completely aroused. And the most important thing was that he actually felt something from that man.

The aura of a certain Tapu.

He is the only one who has extremely powerful fighting ability and can steal the limelight in the war.

Kapu Butterfly.

"Koke!!!!!!!"

Tapu's cry once again resounded throughout the space, and its anger gradually became more violent as the thunder and lightning spread around it.

These humans who don't value fighting actually have a close connection with that Tapu. Why... am I left here...

"Oh no, that guy seems to be even angrier?"

Qiao Ran and Zhu Lan, who were present, could clearly feel the change in Tapu Mingming's mood. The manic power and the ubiquitous lightning and thunder made this clear.

"…Maybe it's Diedie's fault."

Qiao Ran expressed his guess. The Tapu already knew each other, and judging from Butterfly's attitude towards Moo Moo, the relationship between the Tapu was not completely "good". On the contrary, there seemed to be some minor conflicts between them.

Tapu Kokoro's anger was obviously many times more terrifying than when it was in a "calm" state. Although Qiao Ran and Zhu Lan had hope of survival again, in the face of this natural disaster-like thunderstorm, they finally faced the reality.

Any trainer who loses his Pokémon will become extremely weak.

Killing gods with a mortal body ultimately only exists in various bizarre fantasies. In this world created by Pokémon and where the rules are dominated by various Pokémon, although humans have outstanding wisdom and have created countless civilizations, some rules and barriers are still impossible to cross.

"It seems... that we two have come this far?"

"probably."

After struggling for so long, Qiao Ran and Zhu Lan calmed down. They didn't say anything, but just stopped and looked at each other, and then gave each other a final hug.

Unlike the fledgling trainers, they are all good at commanding operations and have their own grasp of the situation. But the current situation is - no matter what, there is no ray of hope.

In the end, they calmed down.

The two of them might still want to say something to each other, but I'm afraid Tapu Kokoro in the sky will no longer give them the chance.

Zhulan once fantasized that if everything was fine, she and Qiao Ran could also communicate with each other about the things they liked in that peaceful world, whether it was Pokémon or the history of the world, they would definitely have a lot of common topics. Besides Cattleya, she would have one more person to call when she goes out, and Qiao Ran seemed to like traveling as well.

Those are things that might happen in dreams, not facts that are happening now.

"Koke!"

The island god with red eyes naturally would not give up this opportunity. A thick thunder shot out from the empty chaos, tearing apart countless flowing lightning snakes, and finally, rushed down straight towards the heads of Qiao Ran and Zhu Lan.

This is the punishment that Tapu Kumu gives to humans.

Qiao Ran and Zhu Lan didn't close their eyes, but looked at each other, quietly waiting for something. They had probably anticipated this moment since they started this journey, but when it came, no matter how calm they acted, they still felt unwilling to give up.

"..."

ended.

These three words flashed through Qiao Ran’s mind again.

The end he had been waiting for had arrived.

however--

This time, he still did not wait for the final "judgment".

"Eh?"

Even after waiting for three or four seconds, the scene that I had imagined countless times still did not happen.

Both he and Zhulan had a look of surprise on their faces, and when they raised their heads and looked at the sky again, they saw an extremely shocking scene.

A transparent barrier stretched across the air, cutting the lightning bolt from the sky in half. Golden electricity spread out in all directions like waves. With the invisible barrier as its center, the entire sky and earth were divided into two distinct and distinct parts. One side was as bright as day, while the other was dim and dark.

"That is……"

However, Qiao Ran's attention was not on this amazing sight. In his sight, he also caught a glimpse of a small, pink figure.

She hid behind the barrier that stretched across the sky, raised her two short black hands, and maintained the shield that could withstand everything.

“Tete…!”

The familiar voice once again rang in Qiao Ran's ears, gradually resounding through the sky.

And this existence that suddenly appeared and stopped everything, her name is about to be revealed.

Qiao Ran took a deep breath. He couldn't believe what he saw.

"Tapu Chou Chou?!"

Chapter 720 [Tacit Understanding]

The moment the pink figure appeared, the golden aura that originally covered the floating island also quickly dissipated - after a while, it was dyed with the pink energy that Qiao Ran was familiar with again, as if a layer of pink film covered everything that could be seen in the field of vision.

This is the spiritual place of Capu Chou Chou, and it is also the special characteristic of the island god. When she appears

When the time comes, the entire venue will change.

but……

The appearance of Tapu Chou Chou in this world is something that shouldn't happen. No matter how you think about it, she shouldn't be here.

"No... maybe, by using certain methods, she can get here too?"

Qiao Ran, who survived the disaster, could not deny what he saw at all. He and Zhu Lan were able to stand here intact now thanks to each other.

——Since she could exist here, she must have done something he didn’t know about.

It was just like the scale powder that had protected him from an attack before... Was there any connection between them?

Qiao Ran had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but the energy fluctuations in the sky were gradually subsiding, the surging thunder and lightning slowly dissipated, and the transparent barrier covering the sky also slowly disappeared. Two Tapu, one gold and one pink, floated in the sky, looking at each other calmly.

"..."

Both of them were silent, but soon, their respective energy fluctuations spread across the surface of their bodies.

The golden lightning and the pink mental power collided with each other, and the two Tapu were flying back and forth in the air. From time to time, there would be storms caused by the collision of energy. However, unlike the previous situation, the current Tapu Butterfly was obviously controlling its own strength, trying its best not to hit the floating island with its attacks, while the Tapu Chime on the other side did not have so many scruples, but just vented its lightning wantonly.

"Zhulan!"

"Ok!"

Qiao Ran and Zhu Lan still need to keep dodging each other's attacks, but with the appearance of Tapu Butterfly, the pressure on the two has been reduced a lot. Moreover, I don’t know if it is Qiao Ran’s illusion, he and Zhu Lan seem to have gained experience in dodging.

--------

The confrontation in the sky continued, but after a quick confrontation, both Tapu Kokoro and Chloro retreated a distance. In front of Chloro, Kokoro realized that he could not gain any advantage. Although Tapu Kokoro was naturally fast, Chloro was not much slower than her. Moreover, her special attack of 130 was enough to suppress most opponents. Even Tapu Kokoro, who was also the god of the island, had to admit that this was a very scary guy.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when both sides were retreating, Kapu Didi came directly to Qiao Ran.

"tte..."

Her figure kept flashing in front of and behind Qiao Ran, as if she was observing the injuries on his body.

"...Don't worry, thanks to you, we are all fine."

Qiao Ran forced a smile on his face. He saw Tapu Tete again, but he didn't expect it to be under such circumstances. Moreover, she became his last hope of saving him.

"How did you get here?"

"tte, tetete..."

Kapu Die Die stretched out her hand and gestured to Qiao Ran for a while, but Qiao Ran didn't quite understand. However, he could still understand the general meaning. In short, it seemed that she had indeed come here through some means, and she also sensed that Qiao Ran was in danger through some means.

“tete.”

Finally, Kapu Butterfly floated in front of Qiao Ran and took up Qiao Ran's hands.

Looking into the other person's eyes, Qiao Ran seemed to feel something.

"You...want to fight with me?"

"..." Tapu Butterfly nodded silently.

"you……"

Qiao Ran was stunned for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but at this moment, the opponent's Tapu Moo Moo's attack had already hit him. Their opponent would not disconnect while they were chatting. On the contrary, this was a very good opportunity.

A golden lightning bolt burst out from Tapu Mingming's body and rushed towards this direction - one hundred thousand volts!

"Diedie!"

"Protect!!"

A blue light curtain lit up in front of Tapu Butterfly, directly blocking the opponent's skills. The golden electric current hit the light curtain, only causing ripples like water splashes.

Qiao Ran already knew all about Tapu Choucho's skills. It was not because he had trained with Tapu Choucho, but because in the previous battle with Tapu Choucho, Qiao Ran had memorized all of her fighting methods.

As a previous opponent, Qiao Ran naturally knew her very well.

"Diedie, strong mental power!"

Although Fairy-type Pokémon are not resistant to their own skills, with the blessing of Capu Butterfree's Psychic Field, the skills using Psychic attributes can now obviously get a greater boost. With a special attack of 130, coupled with the boost of the Psychic Field, Capu Butterfree directly turns into an extremely terrifying turret.

If this turret was an opponent, it would definitely give Qiao Ran a huge headache, but fortunately, the current Tapu Butterfly is not his opponent. On the contrary, she has become his partner.

Faced with the fierce mental fluctuations, Tapu Kokoro had no way to resist. It could only rely on its own speed to leave the attack range of Tapu Butterfly. As a god of war who is good at attacking, Tapu Kokoro's defense ability is relatively weak among all Tapu. However, with its proud speed, most skills could not hit it directly.

And it's the same this time.

At this distance

From a distance, it is obviously very difficult to rely on long-range skills to directly hit Mingming.

but……
