Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

In an instant, several trainers shot off like arrows! Everyone wanted to be at the forefront, so some collisions and competition were inevitable.

"surf!"

A massive wave surged up from behind all the trainers, roaring forward and engulfing a large group of people.

Above the waves, a bearded trainer riding a Gyarados seized the opportunity to move forward.

This surfing was his creation.

Only the first seven trainers escaped unharmed—no, it was eight trainers.

In front of the seven trainers, a Greninja suddenly leaped out of the water, and the rope tied to its body pulled a trainer and the Otomare Race Boat behind it out of the water.

He flipped in mid-air and landed steadily on the water, speeding away into the distance, leaving a full twenty meters behind the second place!

This trainer is none other than Southwind.

He had already foreseen the situation when he went to sleep last night, so Nanfeng had seriously considered how to avoid this pointless collision and get to the front as quickly as possible.

In addition to flying in the sky, Nanfeng also thought of traveling underwater.

So when all the trainers started off, Nanfeng took a deep breath, squatted on the racing boat, and was pulled into the river by Greninja, moving forward at top speed underwater.

After Greninja surpasses all the trainers, it leaps out of the water, and South Wind takes the opportunity to empty all the water from the racing boat in mid-air.

Right now, Nanfeng is the only top-tier team!

"Water jet!" Nanfeng shouted, pulling his hands back forcefully and falling heavily backward as if lying in the racing boat. In reality, he was bracing himself against the bow of the boat, gritting his teeth and tensing his body to prevent himself from being pulled away by the Greninja.

The next second, the south wind flew close to the horizontal like a rocket.

Because, ahead of the South Wind and the racing boat, the Greninja, which had activated its water jet attack, was like a ninja, its entire body enveloped in the water, running across the surface of the water!

More than ten seconds later, the water jet from the Greninja stopped, and the speed of Nanfeng and the Greninja decreased. Just ahead was a corner, and Nanfeng had already pulled ahead of the second place by more than 100 meters.

Two staff members were guarding the buoy that indicated the turn.

Nanfeng immediately executed a beautiful little drift, using the racing boat to cut a beautiful cross-section in the water, and the splashing water washed the face of the naughty kid who was watching the game by the window!

Hearing the child's cries, Nanfeng easily rounded the corner and continued forward.

While the second group was chasing each other and reached the first corner, Nanfeng had already passed through the second corner.

"Don't even mention catching up, when I get serious, you won't even see my taillights!" Nanfeng strode forward with a flourish, suddenly finding the feeling of racing!

Greninja continued forward, but South Wind did not issue any acceleration commands such as Water Jet or Quick Attack, allowing Greninja to conserve its energy for a final sprint.

If I play steadily and without any surprises, I'm sure I'll win the championship this time!

But unsurprisingly, something unexpected happened.

Suddenly, "Surfing" appeared as the bearded man rode a Gyarados out of a side alley, leaving a thick wave beneath him as if to slam Nanfeng 960 against the wall on the side of the river.

"Damn it, someone's cheating and taking a shortcut?" Nanfeng cursed and immediately activated Greninja's Quick Attack.

Greninja pushes off backward with a powerful kick from its legs.

In a flash of lightning, like a frog leaping, Greninja suddenly accelerated forward with the south wind, barely avoiding Gyarados's Surf.

"Don't run! Gyarados, use Rash!" the bearded man shouted, pointing at Nanfeng.

"Roar!!" With a roar, Gyarados charged forward like a madman, its deafening roar shattering the windows of several houses around the river in an instant.

"It is impolite not to reciprocate!" Nanfeng sneered. "Greninja, use Whirlpool!"

The grenadess frog did not stop moving forward; it simply swam quickly forward while gently splashing its paws in the water.

Instantly, a small whirlpool appeared where Greninja and South Wind had just passed, and it quickly grew into a giant whirlpool spanning the entire river.

Before Big Beard and Gyarados could brake, they plunged headfirst into the whirlpool.

(I got up at 5 a.m., and after being a groomsman all day, I'm a bit exhausted today. I was supposed to owe 13 updates, but now I owe 14. I'll definitely make up for it with 5 updates tomorrow. Goodnight everyone....)

162. The possibility of capturing legendary spirits

"Congratulations to Nanfeng for winning the Odomare Summer Carnival water sports competition!"

"The Mayor of Odomare will present our winner with the Odomare Cup Medal of Merit!"

Amid cheers from the audience, Ben Gray, dressed in a formal suit, approached Southwind.

Nanfeng looked completely bewildered. "Aren't you the curator of the Holy Temple Museum? How come you're also the mayor of Odomare?"

Bengrave chuckled. "Who says a museum curator can't be a mayor? My family is the oldest and most prestigious lineage in Odomare."

Now that he's shed his museum tour guide persona and put on a suit, he really does look quite the part.

"That's true..." Nanfeng thought to himself that he had underestimated these supporting characters in the story.

"This is the Odomare Cup winning medal, congratulations!" Ben Gray handed a medal that looked like it was made of both glass and crystal to Nanfeng.

Despite being called a medal, it's actually quite large, like a big pancake, requiring both of Nanfeng's hands to hold it securely. Upon closer inspection of the Odomare Cup winning medal, one can vaguely discern the shapes of Latias and Latios.

"Thank you!" Nanfeng accepted the medal and raised it high amidst cheers from the crowd!

After the "awarding of medals" ceremony ended, everyone dispersed.

It's summer carnival time in Odo Mare, and there's more to do and see than just water sports; everyone's participating in other activities as well.

Nanfeng planned to practice water sports for a while longer, since he was ready to fly over at any time to participate in the competition and try to win a Master Tournament championship. Getting a MEGA evolution stone would be a good thing.

As he walked, he stuffed the Odomaree Medal into his backpack.

However, to Nanfeng's surprise, the Odomarei Victory Medal actually had attributes.

Odomarei Victory Medal: Water movement speed +30%, allows you to see the hidden forms of certain Pokémon.

A 30% increase in water movement speed will be a huge boost for Nanfeng in future water-based competitions. And then there's the "specific spirit" mentioned in the next attribute.

"Latias and Latios?" Nanfeng guessed.

It's not impossible! After all, the trophy features images of these two Pokémon. If we could determine their levels, we'd know when to try and capture them.

"Let's go and have a look!"

The Breaking Waves will depart again at 5 PM, leaving me with very little time to myself.

Nanfeng threw out a Poké Ball to release Gardevoir, which used Teleport to carry him on his journey.

Soon, Nanfeng arrived at the entrance to the Secret Garden again. It was still an ordinary wall in an ordinary alley, which he could easily pass through by reaching out his hand.

Passing through the dark corridor, I was touched by the bright spring sunshine.

Standing at the entrance to the secret garden, one is greeted by towering trees providing shade, lush grass growing in the woods, and a pale blue pond dotting the water. Several elfin figures sway gently in the breeze, and everything is so quiet and harmonious.

No matter how many times Nanfeng comes, he can't help but admire the beauty and tranquility of this place; it's a place that can quickly calm one down.

Seemingly sensing the arrival of the South Wind, a red figure swiftly traversed the forest from the depths of the Secret Garden until it reached the South Wind and stopped on a large tree not far away, tilting its head and curiously observing the South Wind.

Nanfeng had already clearly seen the appearance of the newcomer: a streamlined body, a long white neck, a red lower body, and outstretched wings that looked just like the wings of a jet aircraft.

Its name is "Latias", LV60.

"A level 60 Latias?" Nanfeng's eyes lit up slightly.

This level isn't high at all! It's much lower than the LV89 Zapdos and LV75 Regiereki I encountered before.

Although legendary Pokémon are undoubtedly much stronger than ordinary Pokémon, if you have enough Pokémon to fight in a series of battles and then use your level advantage, you may still have a chance to capture them.

Latias is level 60. Try leveling up your Pokémon to a team of level 70 or level 75 and see how it goes.

As Nanfeng was pondering, another azure figure swiftly flew from the depths of the secret garden, finally landing beside Latias.

It was Latios! Unlike Latios's curiosity, its gaze was intensely scrutinizing; it was sizing up the South Wind, trying to determine its purpose in coming here, and whether it harbored any malice...

Nanfeng's gaze had already fallen on Latios.

Its level also appeared above its head: LV75.

Latios at level 75?

Nanfeng's face immediately fell.

If I plan to use a team of level 70 Pokémon to capture a level 60 Latias, then how do I deal with a level 75 Latios? Would I need a team of level 85 Pokémon?

It's important to know that the key to how legendary Pokémon surpass ordinary Pokémon lies in their potential. As their level increases, the difference between them and ordinary Pokémon also increases!

If I want to capture a level 75 Latios, I'll probably need a team of Pokémon that are level 90 or higher.

To simultaneously capture both a level 60 Latias and a level 75 Latios...

Let's go first.

Nanfeng waited a while, and after confirming that there was no third Latios, he turned and left.

As he walked, Nanfeng pondered the possibility of bringing forward the time when he subdued the legendary elf.

All evil methods are useless. Using technology to suppress that (King Noh) is not a true subjugation, like some evil organizations do.

The only way to truly capture the legendary spirits is to defeat them honorably!

To defeat the legendary spirit, you must increase your spirit's combat power.

Nanfeng still thought of those three crucial forces.

Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, Dynamax! (I heard there's a new evolution in the latest version of Violet Evergarden. I don't care how strong it is, I just want to know if the evolved Pokémon looks cool...)

Mega Evolution increases a Pokémon's battle power.

Z-Moves increase the power of a Pokémon's moves.

Dynamaxing increases a Pokémon's HP and amplifies its moves, increasing their power and range.

So, Nanfeng is wondering, if a Pokémon Mega Evolves, then Dynamaxes, and unleashes a Z-Move, is it possible for it to battle a legendary Pokémon?

163. Junior Breeder Certificate

Early morning, on the beach.

A Godzilla-like Banjira sits on the beach, with a magnificent sand castle standing before it—a small castle it has just built.

"Bangji!" Looking at its newly built little castle, Tyranitar was very satisfied, shaking its head and looking adorable.

A Sand Eater, appearing out of nowhere, quietly approached Tyranitar from its side.

"Awooo!" Tyranitar suddenly opened its blood-red maw and devoured the entire castle in one gulp.

Smack! Smack! Sand tumbled in Tyranitar's mouth.

Lord Shishabao trembled and silently retreated.

"Bangjira, you can't smack your lips while eating!" Nanfeng happened to be passing by in his racing boat.

"Bangji~~" Tyranitar waved to the south wind.

After the south wind had gone far away, Tyranitar tilted its head and thought, feeling that the sand castle was not quite right.

Forget it, let's build another sandcastle!

Tyranitar suddenly realized something and slowly turned its head.

A red shovel appeared in the sand without anyone noticing.

A lightbulb went off in my head!

It's a little shovel!

Tyranitar excitedly grabbed the shovel, but something seemed to be stuck to the bottom of the fork, and it couldn't be pulled up right away.

Tyranitar immediately frowned and forcefully pulled it out. Then it continued to shake its head and pile up sand.

The Sand Eater, who disintegrated into sand the instant Tyranitar turned its head: ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3

That'smine!

but.

Sandcastle Master glanced at Tyranitar's size, and the image of Tyranitar eating Sandcastle flashed through his mind. Compared to a shovel, life was more important.

slip away~

"Alright! Let's take a break!" Nanfeng said to Greninja.

"Crunch!" Greninja responded, accelerating and sending the south wind to the shore.
