At the beginning, Shinji gave me the elf

Chapter 296: Tour of the Islands
"Hello Mr. Hara, I'm Shiraishi. I'm from the Sinnoh region."

"The reason I came to visit you is because I want to take part in the island tour."

After arriving at the small town of Lili, Shiraishi successfully found Hala and straight away asked him to join the pilgrimage of the islands.

"The Sinnoh region is quite far away from Alola. You must have worked really hard!"

"Bai Shi, as the king of Melemele Island, I sincerely welcome you."

"But before we start our tour of the islands, can I ask you a question?"

After learning about Bai Shi's origins, Hala couldn't help but become curious and asked.

"Mr. Hara, just ask me any questions you want, and I will tell you everything I know!"

Shiraishi responded readily, with a frank and confident smile on his face.

And his performance also left a good impression on Hala.

"Shiraishi, since you are willing to participate in the island tour, I guess you are here for the Z-Moves unique to the Alola region, right?"

In recent years, Hala has witnessed many trainers accidentally go down the wrong path in their pursuit of ultimate power.

Therefore, it was necessary for him to have a deeper and more detailed understanding of Bai Shi.

"That's right, Mr. Hara, the purpose of my trip is the Z move!"

Bai Shi had no intention of hiding anything and simply nodded.

"Just as I expected. So, what is your understanding of Z-Moves?"

A look of enlightenment appeared on Hara's face, and he immediately asked Shiraishi a question about the Z move.

"In my opinion, Z-Moves are not just a way to become stronger, but also a link between the trainer and the Pokémon."

“Through unremitting practice, Z-Moves can deepen the tacit understanding and bond between the trainer and the Pokémon, thereby inspiring even more amazing combat power.”

After a brief thought, Bai Shi gave his own unique insights.

Putting aside the scope of animation and games, Shiraishi's understanding of Z moves is actually not in-depth.

However, he has extensive experience in the field of super evolution.

Given that there is some connection between Z moves and Mega Evolution, Shiraishi shared his insights and experiences in Mega Evolution with Hala.

"The hub between trainers and Pokémon? That's a good answer indeed."

"Bai Shi, congratulations on passing my little test. Next, we will begin our real island tour."

"You need to defeat the Overlord Elf of Melemele Island to be qualified to have the final battle with me!"

There was a gleam of admiration in Hala's eyes, and she couldn't help but secretly praise him in her heart.

It was obvious that Shiraishi's answer touched him, and Hara appreciated it very much.

So he gave Shiraishi the opportunity to participate in the island tour.

If not, it would not be so easy for Bai Shi, an outsider.

Under the guidance of Hala, Bai Shi came to a place called "Lush Cave".

"In this cave live Little Mongoose and Detective Mongoose."

"Among them, the Mongoose Inspector is a dominant elf, and his strength is exceptionally strong."

Before stepping into the lush cave, Hara gave Bai Shi a special introduction.

After Hala finished introducing the Overlord Elves, Bai Shi followed in his footsteps and slowly stepped into the lush and mysterious cave.

After a while, the two meerkats firmly blocked Bai Shi's way.

Only by defeating them can Bai Shi move forward.

"Go, Thundermon, Toad King!"

Bai Shi chose Thundermon and Toad King to fight without hesitation.

In this kind of team battle, the Rainy Day Team is the most appropriate choice.

As soon as his elf arrived, the two meerkats launched a fierce attack, throwing large amounts of brown mud.

"Thundermon, use Hold!"

"Toad King, use Surf!"

Bai Shi remained calm and gave different instructions to the two elves.

Raidenmon creates a transparent barrier to enclose Shiraishi inside, protecting it from the opponent's attacks.

The Toad King followed closely behind, riding the huge waves and rushing straight towards the Meerkat Boy.

The two meerkats were unable to escape and were submerged by the huge waves, suffering great damage.

"Thundermon, deal with them, use electric power to rise!" Shiraishi took advantage of the victory and commanded Thundermon.

Suddenly, dense blue electric currents rose from the nearby ground, covering the two meerkats in the attack range.

The opponent wailed and lost the ability to fight again.

"Whether it's the individual strength of the elves or their coordination, they are impeccable. They really came prepared."

"However, the real test begins now!"

Witnessing Bai Shi's easy victory, Hala's anticipation grew, and he was eager to see the upcoming battle between him and the Overlord Elf.

"Inspector~"

Along with the roar, a meerkat inspector, whose body was covered with a hazy yellow energy halo and whose size was much larger than that of its kind, appeared in front of Shiraishi.

And it is the overlord elf of the lush cave.

"Thank you for your hard work, Thundermon and Toad King, come back and take a rest!"

"Clay giant, come out!"

Seeing this, Bai Shi quickly took back the two elves and sent the clay giant into the field.

In front of the clay giant that is over five meters tall, the size advantage of the meerkat inspector is not worth mentioning at all, just like a child.

Even as a dominant elf, Inspector Mongoose still felt fearful when facing the clay giant and did not dare to take the first action.

"Wow, this clay giant of Shiraishi seems to be even more amazing!"

Hala's slightly narrowed eyes suddenly widened, revealing incredible surprise.

He originally thought that the two elves just now were Bai Shi's trump cards.

I never expected that this was just the tip of the iceberg shown by Bai Shi.

"Clay giant, use sharp stones to attack!"

Baishi took the lead and commanded the giant clay puppet.

The clay giant condensed a large number of sharp stone blades and manipulated them to shoot towards Inspector Mongoose.

Inspector Mongoose's expression changed slightly, and he quickly used the rock blocking skill.

He created several huge rocks in front of him to serve as barriers to block the sharp stone attacks from the clay giant.

After blocking the opponent's attack, Inspector Mongoose immediately launched a counterattack, spitting out a huge seed-shaped bomb.

"Clay giant, use explosive punch!"

Bai Shi was fearless and issued orders promptly.

The clay giant raised his fist and smashed the attacking seeds.

Inspector Mongoose's pupils shrank and he was forced to adjust his strategy and use the sandstorm skill.

He wanted to use the cover of the sandstorm to deal with the clay giant.

"Clay Giant, use Earthquake!"

Bai Shi countered the move and shouted at the clay giant.

This skill is also one of the results of the clay giant's special training at home.

The clay giant raised his right foot and stomped heavily on the ground.

The surrounding area began to shake violently.

Inspector Mongoose was unable to dodge and was hit by the earthquake, suffering considerable damage.

"Clay giant, use arm hammer!"

Shiraishi showed no mercy and commanded the clay doll giant to continue the attack.

The clay giant raised his huge fist and whizzed down on the meerkat inspector, knocking it to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

"The victory is decided!"

Hala was about to go forward to congratulate, but found that Bai Shi did not show obvious joy. Instead, he took out a resurrection grass and fed it to the unconscious meerkat inspector.

Thanks to the magical effect of resurrection grass, Inspector Mongoose recovered quickly.

Shiraishi's unexpected move also won the favor of Hala and Inspector Mongoose.

Inspector Mongoose took out a gray Z-pure crystal and solemnly put it into Bai Shi's hand.

This also means that Bai Shi has gained its recognition and successfully passed the test.
