Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

"no"

Nanfeng expressed his disappointment. "Then what's the purpose of this base?"

"This base serves as an outpost for Team Rocket to conquer the Hoenn region, and it is also Team Rocket's main base in Hoenn," Apollo answered honestly.

Am I mistaken? Are there no legendary Pokémon here? Is it just a Team Rocket base?

Nanfeng stroked his chin thoughtfully, but if he could capture Apollo and Lance, he could wipe out all the Team Rocket bases in the Hoenn region.

“Hey~ (Master, look at this)” Mega Gardevoir suddenly reminded him.

Following the direction indicated by Mega Gardevoir, Nanfeng saw a device resembling a thermos in the center of the room, containing a red solution.

"what is this?"

This time, it was Lance's turn to answer the question about "destructive factors".

"Destruction Factor?" Nanfeng remembered that this was a consumable item for spirits, which seemed to greatly increase attack, but would cause the user to fall into a state of confusion for a very long time.

“It’s the genes we extracted from Mewtwo’s body,” Lance explained.

"The genes in Mewtwo's body!" Nanfeng raised his eyebrows slightly. Now that he mentioned it, he remembered that the only way for the game to obtain the Destruction Factor was to get it from Mewtwo.

"So you caught Mewtwo?"

"Never"

"Then how come you have destructive elements?"

"Preserved from when Mewtwo was created."

Nanfeng nodded slightly. Mewtwo was a Pokémon created by Team Rocket using Mew's genes, so it's not surprising that it retains Mewtwo's genes.

Reach out and pull out the thermos containing the destructive agent.

I've confiscated this!

However, to Nanfeng's surprise, the Destruction Factor did not appear in his consumable inventory, but in the valuable items section.

Destructive factors:

When equipped, increases Attack and Special Attack by 50%, increases Psychic-type attack power by 50%, and grants all moves the "Penetrate" effect... (Penetrate: Ignores 20% of the target's Physical and Special Defense).

When a Pokémon of level 70 or lower is equipped with a move, there is a 50% chance that it will become confused each time it uses a move.

After use, Attack and Special Attack are increased by 100%, Psychic-type moves are increased by 100%, and all moves have the "Destruction" effect. (Destruction: Ignores 50% of the target's Defense and Special Defense, and prevents injury recovery for a short time.)

Pokémon below level 100 have a 100% chance of falling into a confused state for 256 days after each use of this move.

(Note: A creature that carries or uses this item will attract the attention of a certain spirit.)

This was the first time Nanfeng had ever seen a spirit item that was both a consumable and a portable item.

Moreover, it is clearly a legendary item.

It's ten thousand times stronger than the destructive factors I've ever seen in games!

A 50% increase when carried, double the effect when used!

Nanfeng couldn't help but swallow hard.

The best way to use this destructive factor is like using it as a consumable. For Gardevoir, a 100% increase in Special Attack plus the doubled power of Psychic-type attacks is equivalent to quadrupling its destructive power!

However, the negative effects of using it temporarily made Nanfeng abandon the idea of ​​letting Gardevoir use it directly.

Using a skill guarantees a 100% chance of falling into a state of chaos lasting 256 days.

I'd better just level up Gardevoir to 100 before using it on Gardevoir.

Nanfeng knew without a doubt that the destructive factor might attract the attention of a certain Pokémon—Mewtwo. But... it didn't matter. There was no Mewtwo in the real world, and while there was in the game, he wouldn't be able to encounter it for the time being.

Therefore, for now, let's give the Destructive Factor to Gardevoir as a carrier.

The Gengar and Blaziken standing nearby were extremely envious.

Unfortunately, this is Gardevoir's second legendary Pokémon item.

The first item is a white jade pearl.

There should have been three items. The other one was a legendary Pokémon item called "Gracidia Flower". Since Gardevoir doesn't carry it around much, Nanfeng gave it to the Totem Venusaur.

(There will be another chapter tonight.)

420. Searching for the small island

The dungeon ended, and Nanfeng returned to his room. He sat on the bed, and the screen displayed...

[The dungeon "Code: Destruction" (completed) has yielded the following rewards:]

【1. Destructive Factor (Already Acquired)】

"Uh..." Nanfeng couldn't help but purse his lips. So this is what "codename: Destruction" meant.

The original reward was the Destruction Factor, but since I obtained it from it, the dungeon reward was not issued again.

"Really stingy," is the only way Nanfeng can describe it.

However, given the difficulty of this dungeon, the destruction factor is practically free, so Nanfeng has nothing to complain about.

"I'll complete the third request as well, and then go back to get another legendary Pokémon item!" Nanfeng thought for a moment, and instead of sending Apollo and Lance back to the Hoenn League, he selected Gardevoir from the Pokémon selection menu and instantly teleported back to the Pokémon Center in Boomtown.

After his usual treatment at Miss Joy's, Nanfeng set off for Waterway 107.

View the specific details of the commission.

[A strange, unknown island has been discovered south of Waterway 107. The island disappeared as investigators approached, confirming it was not a mirage. No danger has been detected so far. Requesting additional personnel from 03 to investigate.]

Actually, while searching for Team Rocket members, Nanfeng passed by Route 107. Since Route 107 is right next to Dew Island, searching around Dew Island would naturally lead to Route 107.

However, instead of continuing further south, they circled back around Wudou Island, so Nanfeng gained nothing.

Now, Nanfeng is preparing to head south, venturing deeper, hoping to find something of value. Whether it's the Sea Violet or the Team Rocket base codenamed "Destroyed," both will yield at least a legendary Pokémon item, so the island mentioned in this request shouldn't disappoint.

"Surf!" South Wind rode Gyarados southward.

Along the way, they took down quite a few reckless teenagers in swimming rings.

Until the edge of the map.

A notification appeared on the handheld console.

[Enter story mode?]

“Story mode!” Nanfeng’s eyes lit up.

Where was the last time I played in story mode?

Groudon vs. Kyogre!

Could it be that another legendary spirit will be fighting next?

Nanfeng chose to enter.

Suddenly, a vast expanse stretched before him, where the water and sky merged into one, dotted with white clouds and occasionally gliding long-winged gulls. He found himself standing atop a red Gyarados, heading towards the boundless ocean.

"I didn't see the legendary elves either..."

The calm and tranquility gave Nanfeng some ideas. "Could it be underwater?"

"That's not right either. The request said it mentioned seeing a small island..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nanfeng saw an island shrouded in mist in the distance, appearing and disappearing in the distance.

"Found it!" Nanfeng immediately took out two Poké Balls, put one on the red Gyarados head to retrieve it, and used the other to release the Pokémon.

The jet-black Lugia flapped its wings and soared, carrying the south wind as it swiftly made its way towards the island.

Standing on Lugia's back, feeling the oncoming gale, this feeling... Thai pants hot~~~!

I could feel Xiao Zhi's happiness!

Lugia was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was close to the island, only three or four hundred meters away. Because of his ability to see far and wide, Nanfeng could even see through some of the thin mist that the island's trees were covered with "twig fruits," which were beautiful and delightful.

But in the next instant, the hazy mist and the small island, along with the delightful lychee fruit, vanished.

That's right, it just disappeared, vanished into thin air.

There are no signs.

After Lugia flew to where the island should have been, South Wind confirmed it was empty. Below the surface, there was only seawater; nothing else.

“Just like the situation the investigators encountered on the commission,” Nanfeng muttered to himself, patting Lugia on the shoulder to signal it to return.

When Lugia was three or four hundred meters away from the island, the island, shrouded in mist, reappeared in the South Wind's eyes, standing quietly on the sea, the lychee fruits still there, as if they had never left.

"Gardevoir! Use Psychic to scan it and see what's going on," Nanfeng said, taking out a Poké Ball and releasing it.

Whether it exists or not, whether it's a mirage or not, can be determined by scanning it with mental power!

Gardevoir has completed its Mega Evolution.

A Mega Gardevoir, clad in a black dress, floated in mid-air. The long, wedding-dress-like gown swayed and fluttered in the air as its psychic energy spread, as if welcoming a gust of wind.

Not long after, Mega Gardevoir withdrew its psychic power, and the result was achieved.

"Nai~ (Master, there is indeed an island there, but its surface seems to be shrouded in a layer of spacetime power)"

“(The forces of time and space have severed the connection between our time and the other’s time, so we can see it, but we can’t really find it!)” Gardevoir answered in detail, and through the Soothing Bell, Southwind could clearly understand its explanation.

"Enveloped by the power of time and space? Who has such a grand scheme?" Nanfeng became even more interested.

Does the Pokémon world possess the power of both time and space?

Aside from Arceus, there shouldn't be any other 163, right?

Could this be an island left behind by Arceus? Or was it created by Palkia and Dialga together?

Nanfeng inexplicably thought of Baiyang Town from the theatrical version.

A place that almost disappeared into space and time because of the battle between Palkia and Dialga.

"Nai (Master, I can try using the White Jade Pearl to unlock the spatial power here and find the true location of this island)."

“But as for the power of time, there’s nothing I can do,” Gardevoir said again.

"It's alright, let's unlock the spatial power first." Nanfeng waved his hand, indicating that he had a solution in mind.

Gardevoir can use the White Jewel to unlock the power of space, so can it also use the Diamond Jewel to unlock the power of time?

While Nanfeng was letting his thoughts wander, Mega Gardevoir had already used the Jade Orb to unlock the spatial power of the island.

The small island, clearly visible in the white mist, vanished instantly, even if the southerly wind increased its distance. It was already located on Route 107.

"Where is it now?" Nanfeng asked Gardevoir.

"Nai! (Please come with me, Master!)" Mega Gardevoir waved slightly, using psychic powers to propel her body rapidly toward the northeast.

Lugia spread its wings and flapped them powerfully, immediately taking the South Wind with it and flying away with Mega Gardevoir.

421. Shamy and Silavi

It was half an hour later when we arrived at the location identified by Mega Gardevoir.

Nanfeng opened the map. Their current location was on Waterway 130. They had flown past Kaina City and passed through Twilight Town, finally stopping a few hundred nautical miles south of Liuli City.

Strictly speaking, this shouldn't be considered Route 130, since this place isn't even on the map of the Hoenn region.

Not far away, the island was still shrouded in mist, and the lychee fruit looked incredibly tempting.

It took Nanfeng quite a while to find it.

Upon closer inspection, this island is actually a mirage. The illusory image is on Route 107, while the real island is on Route 130.

The south wind carried Lugia closer.

This time the island did not disappear, and the south wind was able to penetrate deep into its interior, but...

I can't touch it.

Nanfeng reached out to pick the lychee, but missed.

Everything before my eyes remained like an image, visible but untouchable.

"Alas~ (We have only broken the seal on spatial power; the seal on temporal power remains in place)"
