Chapter 82: Dragon Dance

  Dragonite had never entered a Pokémon like this before.

  The massive dragon-like creature had a pitch-bck body adorned with golden lihat exuded an a, almost divine preses golden eyes emitted an invisible pressure, making it seem like a god suspended high in the os, gazing down upon the world below.

  For a moment, time seemed to stand still as the two figures simply stared at each other in silence.

  "Ouch…" Dragonite murmured, its expression serious. The mysterious Pokémon didn't seem to harbor any hostility towards it.

  After what felt like ay, the Pokémon suddenly moved.

  It twisted its enormous, sharp bck body and asded through the air, flying towards the higher reaches of the sky.

  As it moved, an invisible cye radiated from its form, followed by a massive shockwave that expanded outward at an unimaginable speed, with the creature at its ter.

  In an instant, the storm that had been raging over the sea was obliterated, and the terrifying typhoon vanished as if it had never existed.

  "Ouch!" Dragonite's eyes widened in astonishment, deeply shocked by what it had just witnessed.

  'What an incredible power!'

  The dark Pokémon hadn't done anything overtly aggressive. It had merely released the pressure from its body, and that alone was enough to disperse the ferocious typhoon.

  The image of that dark figure was etched deeply intonite's mind.

  After witnessing the awe-inspiring dispy of power from the mysterious Pokémon, an idea suddenly sparked within Dragonite.

  It recalled the twisting, fluid motion of the Pokémon's body and instinctively began to mimic it, perf a fierce Dragon Dance.

  A surge of powerful energy erupted from deep within its core. At that moment, Dragonite felt as though every cell in its body was r with excitement.

  This newfound energy seemed to propel Dragoo an almost euphoric state, filling it with a strength it had never known before.

  After a few moments, Dragonite gradually became aced to this overwhelmiion.

  It looked up, searg for the mysterious Pokémon, but the creature had vanished without a trace, as if it had never been there at all.

  The other Pokémon had left.

  Now, uhe quiet night sky, only Dragonite remained.

  Without the influence of the typhoon, the waves on the sea gradually calmed down, and the spiral clouds that had once ected the sky and the earth began to dissipate.

  The stars and the moon reappeared in the sky, their light refleg on the deep blue sea, creating a breathtaking se.

  Dragonite blinked and then looked up at the moon.

  'The moon is so beautiful!' the thought crossed Dragonite's mind.

  But now, it was time to head bae.

  ...

  The M

  The typhoon that had raged throughout the night had suddenly vanished, and the heavy rain had stopped. It seemed as though the typhoon had left the Paldea regioirely, disappearing without a trace.

  A drop of clear water dripped from the eaves and fell onto the grass below. Small puddles in the mud reflected the blue sky and white clouds. Today was another sunny day.

  Naoki stood uhe eaves, gazing into the distance. He murmured to himself, "Strange, didn't the weather forecast say this typhoon would st for several days?"

  However, what ed him more than the sudden ge iher was that Dragonite had not yet returned.

  Thinking of this, Naoki turned around and looked at Koraidon behind him. He asked, "Koraidon, you sense Dragonite's presence?"

  "Ah, gah…" Koraidon yawned calmly, shook its head, and then fully woke up.

  Suddenly, it seemed to notiething and raised its head to look forward.

  Following its gaze, Naoki saw Dragonite flying toward them from a distance.

  Finally, it's back!

  Naoki couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But as Dragonite nded, he noticed that it was covered in scars and looked somewhat exhausted.

  Despite its disheveled appearance, Dragonite's eyes lit up the moment it saw Naoki. It was clearly very excited.

  "Ouch!" Dragonite called out enthusiastically.

  Seeing Dragonite's dition, Naoki couldn't help but ask, "Did you spend all night practig new moves?"

  Dragonite nodded eagerly and thereated to a nearby patch of grass, excited to demonstrate its newfound abilities to Naoki.

  With a powerful fp of its wings, Dragonite jured a fierce storm that swept forward with impressive force.

  Naoki was taken aback. "Hurrie?"

  Dragonite nodded but wasn't done showing off. After unleashing the Hurrie, it began to perform a fierd mysterious das movements fluid and powerful.

  Naoki was even more surprised. "Dragon Dance? Did you master this st night too?"

  "Ouch!" Dragonite firmed with a proud nod.

  It felt a deep sense of gratitude toward the mysterious Pokémon it had entered. Without that inspiration, Dragonite might not have grasped these powerful moves so quickly.

  As Dragonite recalled the image of that Pokémon dispersing the typhoon with ease, it couldn't help but be in awe.

  Naoki, however, was more focused onite's safe return than its new abilities. "Alright, the most important thing is that you made it back safely. Let's get some breakfast! You probably didn't sleep at all st night, right? After breakfast, go get some rest. I'll hahe ranch work today."

  The two headed inside, and as Naoki spoke, he turo the refrigerator to fete goat's milk.

  The typhoon had left its mark, damaging some facilities and crops on the ranch, so Naoki knew he'd have a busy day ahead.

  Dragonite, feeling the fatigue from its ht ordeal, first ate some fruit that Naoki had prepared to restore its strength, then dug into breakfast.

  After quickly finishing its meal, Dragouro its Poké Ball to catch up on mueeded sleep.

  Naoki and Koraidon then rushed to town with the goat's milk, heading to Madame Dantes' house as they remembered the way.

  After knog on the door, they were greeted by the kind-faced, white-haired Madame Dantes. She opehe door, her eyes searg for a familiar figure that wasn't there.

  Her was immediate. "Is Dragonite okay?" she asked, a hint of worry in her voice.

  Naoki couldn't help but admire the sharpness of the old woman's intuition. He nodded and reassured her, "Dragonite was very tired after braving the typhoon st night. It's resting at the ranow, so I'm delivering the milk today."

  Madame Dantes visibly rexed, letting out a sigh of relief. She smiled warmly and took the goat milk from Naoki. "e in and have a cup of tea!" she offered.

  Naoki politely tried to dee, "I appreciate it, but I've got a lot of work waiting for me back at the ranch."

  "It will only take a few minutes," Madame Dantes insisted with a kind smile. "It won't take long."

  Seeing her insistenaoki relutly agreed. He thanked her and followed her into the living room with Koraidon by his side.

  Madame Dantes put the goat's milk away and disappeared into the kit. A few mier, she returned with two cups of tea, steam rising from the surface.

  She set the tea oable and then brought out a pte of biscuits, pg it in front of Koraidon.

  "This is sweet bck tea made from the tea leaves grown in abundan Kitakami. It's mixed with milk. Have a taste!"
