Chapter 860 Dragonite's Dance Talent!!_1

Fang Yuan and Eevee are simply geniuses!

Before long, the four Island Protectors were convinced.

Because with the Z-Pure Crystals in hand, Fang Yuan didn't need to teach them much before using the Z-Moves.

The power of Aura triggered almost instantaneously.

Based on Water-type Partner Technique as the basic move, the Z-Move Super Water Whirlpool could create a high-pressure Whirlpool of over ten meters in diameter above the sea, easily devouring and overwhelming any opponent.

Based on the Dark Type Partner Skill as the basic move, the Z-Move Black Hole Devours Everything could create a terrifyingly gravitational black hole, sucking enemies into it before exploding.

Based on Grass Partner Techniques as the basic move, the Z-Move Brilliant and Colorful Flower Bursting could generate a vast domain of greenery and then sacrifice the life force of flora with Z-Power, producing intense natural wave motions to defeat opponents.

Fang Yuan and his team only experimented with three types, and all were successful on the first try.

Moreover, the effects of the moves were unexpectedly good, with each one enabling Pokemon to easily rise above their level challenges.

"Kapu (still completed the Z-Move without any need for a prayerful gesture)…"

"Nana (and moreover, they were all successful on the first try)…"

"Da-di (the most important thing is, including the three moves from earlier, they've used Z-Moves six times in a short period. That cream-colored Pokemon, how terrifying)…"

"Tss-tss (am I the only one who noticed that the Eevee's basic moves when using Z-Moves are also incredibly peculiar)…"

Whether a Z-Move leans toward physical damage or energy damage depends on the basic move. Add Z-Power to the basic move, and you have the essence of a Z-Move.

Using Partner Skills as the basic move is nearly unique, which led to Eevee's Z-Moves being exceptionally powerful.

Geniuses.

It was without a doubt that Fang Yuan and Eevee were geniuses when it came to using Z-Moves, a fact even the four Island Protectors had to admit.

This deeply moved them.

"Bimi~~!! Bimi~!! (I want to try too!!)"

Meanwhile.

Lil Bikitini, who had successfully encouraged Fang Yuan to use Z-Moves multiple times, couldn't wait anymore and was eagerly looking at Fang Yuan.

It circled Fang Yuan persistently, tugging at his clothing.

Considering how hard it worked to charge up energy, let's give it a try too~~

Not just Victini, but other Pokemon were also anxiously gazing at the pile of Z-Pure Crystals belonging to Fang Yuan.

If Eevee had tried so many times, it was only fair to let them try as well.

It has to be a fair distribution!

Although not every Pokemon has the chance to learn an Exclusive Z Move, they should be able to use the Universal Z Moves, right?

Even Monferno, who claimed to be uninterested in Z Moves, was very eager to see the effects of the Fighting Type Z Moves.

In comparison to Thunder Flame Mode... how would it fare? Can it withstand a few hits? Is it possible to use Z Moves while in Thunder Flame Mode?

"Alright!!" Seeing the anticipation of the other Pokemon, Fang Yuan touched Victini's head and said.

Although it meant putting Victini through more trouble, Victini was itself very curious about Z Moves, so it didn't feel tired from charging energy constantly.

If Victini had no complaints, then there was no issue.

Next, let's give the little Victini a taste of the Z Moves...

"Hah~~~"

At this moment, Eevee too was having a blast. Seeing a line of juniors queueing up, it gave a long yawn then sauntered off to the side, flopped down, and thought, "Well Fang Yuan, it's all up to you now."

Soon after, Victini came to the front as the second Pokemon to experiment with the Z Move.

Fang Yuan took off the Grass Z and fitted the Fire Z instead.

He then skillfully used Aura to stimulate the power of the Brilliant Stone and Z-Pure Crystals, connecting them to Victini.

Because of the Power of the Heart, at that moment Fang Yuan and Victini were in sync, so Victini received the power quite easily.

"Bimi~!! (Super Extreme Flame Bomb!!)"

In midair, the tiny Victini made a "Hadouken" gesture from video games, trying to condense the Flame Charge into Super Extreme Flame Bomb.

However, the enveloping Z-Power was not at all influenced by its guidance. Instead of amplifying the basic move, it gradually dissipated.

As a result, Victini merely managed to gather a regular Flame Charge.

Although it was pretty powerful, compared to a Fire Type Z Move, it was worlds apart.

Victini: (・.・*) Uh oh??

What... what happened?

"It seems something went wrong, let's try with the Superpower Z." Fang Yuan scratched his head, just as puzzled.

Seconds later, Fang Yuan and Victini failed to condense a Superpower Z Move.

Victini: ╥﹏╥... Why?

Why could it help Big Sister Eevee release Z Moves consecutively, but by itself couldn't manage even one...

"Kapu~~~ (Kap!!)"

Finally, Tapu Koko, who had been watching Fang Yuan's fiddling, spoke up.

It shook its head to indicate that currently, only Fang Yuan and Eevee were likely to smoothly use Z Moves.

Because Eevee had experience activating Z Moves independently, it could manage the enveloping Z-Power.

However, Fang Yuan's other Pokemon had not undergone such training, so it wasn't as easy for them to control the Z-Power to unleash Z Moves.

Even if Victini was replaced with other Pokemon, the result would be the same.

"Is that so."

Disbelieving, Fang Yuan called over the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster to try a Universal Electric Series Z Move, and of course, he was met with failure.

At this point, he had no choice but to turn to Tapu Koko.

"So you mean, they need to go through training before they can use Z-Moves casually like Eevee?"

"Tapu!! (Yes, they need lots of practice. That way, your other Pokemon can master Z-Power. Let's start by teaching them the full-force pose required to harness Z-Power.)"

Tapu Koko waved its hand.

Ultimately, it seemed that teaching the full-force prayer pose was necessary, it thought.

This pose was highly effective for harnessing Z-Power.

However, Fang Yuan didn't need to learn it due to his special ability, but Fang Yuan's other Pokemon apart from Eevee certainly did.

After all, they didn't have the talent for innate Z-Moves like Eevee.

"I see... Please take care of that."

Fang Yuan remembered.

In the anime, when trainers use Z-Moves, their Pokemon often perform gestures alongside them to achieve synchrony before the Z-Move can be used.

It seemed that this pose was also likely key for the Pokemon to harness Z-Power.

Fang Yuan looked towards Monferno, Milotic, and Darkrai.

At the moment, Monferno, Milotic, and Darkrai had no idea what was waiting for them.

For Pokemon... striking a pose before a move shouldn't be too embarrassing, right?

"Then... you guys learn from the guardian deities, it's just some move gestures, shouldn't be too hard to learn," Fang Yuan encouraged.

"Magnemite!!" "Waah!!" "Fwoo!!!"...

A group of Pokemon, clueless about what was going on, nodded.

"Tapu!!! (Let's start with the full-force pose, then once they can initially harness Z-Power, we'll move to the next step 'developing exclusive moves'!)"

If they couldn't even use Universal Z-Moves, there was no talking about developing Exclusive Z-Moves. Hence Tapu Koko decided to make mastering Universal Z-Moves part of Fang Yuan's Pokemon training.

...

Once the guardian gods explained, the Pokemon understood how to harness Z-Power.

Performing certain gestures to draw upon Z-Power and strengthen basic moves into Z-Skills.

It didn't sound very difficult.

But thinking back to the dance the four island guardian deities performed earlier, Milotic and Darkrai were incredibly hesitant.

Milotic, being prideful, thought... those moves were far from elegant.

Darkrai, not wanting to let go of its cool demeanor, was reluctant to dance.

Fortunately, after the guardian deities demonstrated, the Pokemon found that most specific gestures were quite normal, so they actually studied quite seriously.

The four island guardians quickly demonstrated the specific gestures for Z-Moves of all 18 types.

On the side, Rotom was recording in high definition and then playing the footage back for the Pokemon to watch repeatedly.

This moved the guardians... In the past, they really had to teach humans and Pokemon over and over again.

Now to have such a thing as video, it was overwhelming.

The guardian gods had no idea that Rotom was already scheming in its mind...

[Island Guardian Deities' High-Quality Original Z-Move Gesture Videos, selling for 100 billion should be reasonable, right? After all, this is legendary-level material.]

...

With patience, the Pokemon learned.

If they couldn't get serious about such simple training, it would mean they lacked ambition.

Each Pokemon didn't need to master all 18 sets of gestures.

Like the Exploding Magnet Monster, mastering the specific gestures of a few attributes it specialized in was enough, and it was the same for other Pokemon.

After all, there was no point in Monferno learning a Water Series Z-Power gesture, as it would be useless to it.

Therefore, since there were only a few gestures, the Pokemon learned quite quickly.

The quickest learners were Ditto and Dragonite.

Ditto's imitation learning ability was nearly divine. Just by watching once, it managed to copy them to a tee, 100%.

As perfect as the moves performed by the island guardians.

Because it directly transformed into one of the island guardians...

Sadly, it had the form but not the power. Otherwise, Fang Yuan and Rotom would definitely drag Ditto to sell Z-Crystals—or rather, to trade Z-Crystals for deals.

And Dragonite, without the cheat that was Ditto, was naturally gifted in dance.

As a super-genius who could blend Dragon Dance with Elysium and middle school gymnastics perfectly, it also only watched once and nearly perfectly copied the specific gestures.

When Monferno had just started learning one type's gesture, Dragonite had already mastered all 18 types.

This gave Dragonite an exceedingly confident, inflated, and proud reason to show off its dance in front of Milotic, seemingly flaunting its talent.

"Boo wuh!!!"

See! I've instantly grasped the powerful techniques taught by the guardian deities.

"Boo wuh!!!" Dragonite fluttered its wings dancing, trying to catch Milotic's attention.

Guardian gods: This dragon... is good.

It will achieve greatness in the future.

Fang Yuan, Milotic: Idiot.

Fang Yuan inwardly rolled his eyes. They're just some lousy moves, what's there to show off...
