"Use 'sunny day' and then 'Solar power'"

"Char…"

'Solar power' was a hidden ability of Charmeleon and it could only come into effect after using 'Sunny day'. If the ability was fully mastered, using both of them at the same time would increase the Sp. Attk by 50% but the user's Hp would decrease over time.

Charmeleon had neither mastered 'Solar power' nor 'Sunny day'. Axel wanted Charmeleon to master this ability as soon as possible. It would be a trump card for Charmeleon. But looking at Charmeleon's ability it was turning out to be a berserk type Pokemon.

'Solar power' would increase its Sp. Attk but decrease its Hp. However, 'Blaze' would increase its fire-type attacks when its Hp decreases. So, Charmeleon could first use 'Solar power' and 'sunny day' and later it could use the ability of 'Blaze'. Both of the abilities complemented each other.

But there came a serious problem. By this concept, Charmeleon would be a glass cannon. It would have high attack but low health all the time. Except for 'Roost' which it would learn after evolving, Charmeleon didn't have any healing-type moves to keep going. So, Axel came up with a daring plan.

It was to use 'Substitute'. Normally, 'Substitute' would use Hp of the user to create a decoy that would take hits. But if Axel improvises the move as he did it with Beedrill, 'Substitute' could be a game changer.

So, Axel let 'Charmeleon' learn 'Substitute' from 'Shedinja' and he also let it learn 'Counter' just for some extreme situation.

Now, Charmeleon just had to practice these moves to its mastery which it was inherently good at doing.

Axel also wanted it to master 'Blaze' but it was a passive type of move that would emerge after it got angry while in low health. If Charmeleon was trained on it, it would be dangerous in this forest with no proper healing facility. Axel did have tons of potions and revives with Gogoat milk but he didn't want to take the risk.

So, he let Charmeleon practice 'Solar power'. Charmeleon had already mastered 'Fire Pledge' a day ago. It was now training on 2 new moves; 'Substitute' and 'Counter'.

Today was the day that they would relocate for the last time. They had already gone deep into the forest and needed to reach the designated location for the decisive battle.

Axel was starting to have reoccurring dreams again. This time the dream didn't show any herd of Pokemons that he wanted to catch but just a pathway free of any dangers. The team had thought to return the same way they had come but the dream showed that the pathway they were planning was full of dangers.

Axel trusting the dream again tried to go the dream way free of dangers. They would have to relocate and camp each day for 4 days straight if they were to reach the designated place on time.

The dream came true and there were no dangers. The team camped in a secured place and was having a bonfire as usual.

Everyone was having a conversation about the battle against the Hoenn team. They were excited. They had made a lot of progress in these 2 months and frankly, they believed that they would win. Axel's Piloswine was extremely powerful and they had started to believe in their team leader.

But Axel was thinking something different.

"Hey Axel, you okay? You seem to be out of the conversation?", asked Lyra.

"Yes, is the battle bothering you? I think we will win fair and square. Don't worry about such stuff", added Ryker.

"No, I am thinking about some other stuff. Actually, I have a confession to make.", replied Axel.

"And what would that be? Spill it out. You are making me nervous now.", said Ryker.

"I am starting to have those dreams again."

"What?? You mean that Tauros dream?", asked Ryker again.

"Yes. But this time it was different. The dreams started 3 days ago and they showed the same thing. First, it showed the pathway that we took before and it was full of danger with powerful Pokemons on the way and then it showed the pathway that we took now and it was like what we experienced. I am in a dilemma right now."

"I thought something was fishy. We all did. I didn't say anything before but the route we took was marked as dangerous by the explorer on the map.", said Lance joining the conversation.

"Really?!!!!" shouted everyone. No one had looked at the map and were just following Axel's orders and Axel was following the dream.

"Then why didn't you say anything?", asked Axel

"Cause we believe in you, Axel. You are our team leader and every decision that you took had been right on the spot. In an unknown place like this it would make sense to follow our team leader.", said Lorelai.

Everyone had thought that something was fishy. Cause why would anyone take a different route if the previous route was okay to travel.

"But I think that we should not follow your dream from now on.", suggested Lance.

"But why? The dreams have been right all the way. Don't you think it would be stupid to not follow the dream.", said Lyra.

"No, Lance is right. I think we should look at the map again tomorrow and take a different route.", said Axel.

"But why? Can anyone give me a good reason?", asked Lyra.

"Cause even Axel knows that it is not normal, Lyra. One time may be a coincidence but 2 times would be foolishness. Any normal dream would not tell you about the future and the detail far ahead. I suspect that someone must be manipulating your brain Axel. This is not good", said Lance.

Axel feared the exact same thing. This dream thing was not normal. If someone was able to show him vision through the dream, then that someone could also manipulate him freely.

"But who would do something like that?", asked Lyra again.

"I don't know but it must be someone powerful or maybe it is a powerful Pokemon." replied Lance.
