A week has passed since Aoki began the training with the energy of chaos and it gave some benefits too.
He could see a rise in the level of defense and pain tolerance.
It was only a week till the Youth cup started so they increased their pace as planned.
They decided to take the route through Grandpa canyon as Aoki heard that there would be an excavation event soon.
There was another reason for taking the path of Grandpa Canyon, it was meeting Brock and Ash.
Over the months he has been traveling, he has tried making contact with influential people and people he deemed important like Steven, Brock, Suzie, etc.
Ash, Brock, and Daisy were moving at a good rate and would catch up to him so he slowed down the speed to meet them.
Brock and Daisy were already 3rd class breeders and groomers and from what he saw on the news there was going to be a course held by a top rank breeder in Fuschia city till the end of September so they are going to stay there for a while.
It would be a lie if Aoki was not excited to meet Ash, the protagonist.
He also wanted to see if the thing with Charizard happened as he knew Ash had a Charmander from Brock.
Back to the topic of his Pokemon.
While the rest of the Pokemon just tried to get used to the power, Clefefable tried her best to analyze the power to enhance her ghost-type move mastery which actually worked.
It was also the fact that in terms of intelligence, Clefable stood at the top of his team.
Due to this Shadow Ball became one of the most substantial moves in her arsenal.
The energy of chaos was a mixture of many types of energies like ghost, poison, dragon, dark, and psychic but the concentration of dragon and ghost energy was more.
Since this energy contained a bit of poison in it, Nidoking and Victreebel have started trying to analyze its power to enhance their poison but it has not given any result so far.
In the last few days, all the Pokemon had fair shares of battles.
Aside from the planned battle format, Aoki would randomly choose 1, 2, or 3 Pokemon to fight against all the others at their full power.
As the level of destruction was very large so he used Darkrai's dimension to fight.
As Aoki and Misty fight and train mostly away from each other, they don't have any idea what is going on with the other which has made Aoki hide the fact about the dimension till now.
Although there wouldn't be a problem if she knew, Aoki wanted to keep some things secret for now.
Currently, in terms of overall strength, his party was ranked in the following order.
Darkrai
Charizard
Clefable
Gyarados
Nidoking
Pidgeot
Victreebel
Shelgon
But if the power of mega evolution was added, Gyarados would be in the second spot due to the increase in damage potential.
The only Pokemon in his party that was still in master rank was Shelgon but was pretty close to a breakthrough.
As the energy of chaos contained the dragon-type power so he benefitted a lot too. His energy control and emotion control received the most boost.
Normally it is impossible for pseudo legendaries to grow so fast but due to the growth boost from the dark aura, Shelgon was growing at a speed that surpassed common knowledge.
In pokemon with three stages of evolution, the middle stage was equivalent to adolescence. This is where pokemon grew the most mentally.
But it does not mean Pokemon at the beginning stage are not mature. Pokemon have the ability to mate after they reach a certain age regardless of their evolution stage.
Aoki had decided not to hold off Shelgon's evolution and let him evolve when he could not grow anymore. He had a lot of materials ready from the back market that would help in the evolution.
Shelgon was playful since birth and the first in line to mess around but now he has become mature and showed composer.
His usual playful eyes now contained the burning pride of a dragon.
Not just him, but all of his team members showed huge growth both physically and mentally.
"Maybe this is what being a proud father must feel like "
********
Somewhere in an underground place.
A small back Pokemon emerged from the ground and stood in front of a coffin that had a lot of talismans around it.
Not only that, the entire room was filled with thousands of talismans.
One by one the Pokemon removed all the talismans and removed the lid of the coffin.
Inside the coffin lay a handsome white-haired man with a smile.
The small Pokemon waved his hand and a black pulsating orb appeared in his hand which he kept on his chest of the man.
The back orb got absorbed into the body of the man starting a set of events.
One by all the talismans started disintegrating and the walls of the room started to crack. The coffin started floating in the air the next second burst into pieces but the man in the coffin kept floating.
The white-haired man slowly opened his eyes but in place of his eyes was darkness…complete darkness.
The small black Pokemon bend on one knee and bowed down.
"I welcome my liege to the human world, " he said in a distorted.
The man gave a short glance to the Pokemon and began looking at his body.
"How long has it been? " the man asked.
"It's been more than 2000 years my liege "
"Now then... it's about time the rightful owner returned. "
