POKEMON: PICK UP THE MYSTICAL POKEMON DIANCIE AT THE BEGINNING

In a huge open space, people watching the battle were scattered in small groups.

The boy opposite Victor confidently threw his Poké Ball, a confident smile on his face.

Fanta and his Teddiursa had already defeated five opponents.

Now, both the boy and his Pokémon stared at Victor with great intensity.

Victor ignored the angry gaze from across the field and calmly threw out the Poké Ball containing Carbink.

As soon as Carbink jumped out of the ball, she bowed gracefully to Teddiursa in front of her.

"Na na na~" (Please give me more advice~)

"Teddi!" Teddiursa ignored Carbink and instead sharpened his claws, looking at his trainer with full fighting spirit.

The crowd watching the match cheered for the boy and his Pokémon.

"Come on!" "Go, Teddiursa! Win another victory!"

With the overwhelming support from the audience, both the boy and his Pokémon's confidence grew stronger.

Victor didn't pay attention to the cheers from the crowd. He immediately gave the first command to Carbink: "Carbink, use Harden!"

"Na na!" After responding, Carbink quickly circulated the energy in her body to strengthen her defense. A colorless light enveloped her, increasing her defense.

After Victor's command, the boy reacted quickly and instructed his Teddiursa to charge at Carbink.

However, the distance was too far, and since Teddiursa hadn't learned any long-range moves, he could only watch as Carbink finished the Harden move.

Once Carbink had completed the move, Teddiursa finally closed the gap, reaching one meter in front of her.

Seeing Teddiursa approach, the boy immediately shouted an order.

"Teddiursa, use all your strength to grab!"

"Teddi!" Teddiursa gathered his energy and attacked Carbink with a full-strength strike.

Victor calmly observed the scene and said, "Carbink, next!"

"Hey, hey!" Carbink trusted Victor fully, so she stopped the evasive action she had been preparing and stood her ground.

"Ding————————!" A crisp sound echoed as Teddiursa's full-strength attack hit Carbink.

"F*ck!" The spectators, watching the match, exclaimed in disbelief.

Teddiursa had attacked with full force, yet the gray ore on Carbink's body remained unscathed, while the energy attached to Teddiursa's claws shattered upon contact.

As expected, Carbink's defense was incredibly strong. After using Harden, she took the full force of a level 7 Teddiursa's attack without sustaining any damage.

Victor mentally increased his rating of Carbink's defense and quickly commanded, "Carbink, use Ancient Power!"

The stunned boy opposite him quickly gave a new command to Teddiursa to avoid the attack.

Teddiursa, confused, took a moment to react to the instructions. Just as he began to adjust his posture to dodge—

"Na na!" (Go ahead!) At Victor's command, Carbink gathered Ancient Power in just three seconds, forming a rock the size of a small basketball. Before Teddiursa could react, she launched it!

The rock flew directly toward Teddiursa, who had no time to dodge.

"Boom!" The rock hit Teddiursa square in the face, knocking him out immediately.

"Teddiursa!——————." The boy, who had been so confident before the battle, shouted in disbelief as he watched his Pokémon collapse.

Teddiursa had lost the ability to fight, falling unconscious, and could not respond to his trainer.

The crowd around them began discussing in astonishment.

"F*ck, what's up with that Pokémon? This Teddiursa easily defeated five Pokémon in a row, but now it can't even break through its defense!"

"Yeah, does anyone know what Pokémon this is? I feel like I've never seen it before!"

At that moment, a boy wearing black-framed glasses stood up from the crowd and explained.

"As far as I know, this should be a Pokémon unique to the Obsidian Alliance—Carbink."

"Carbink isn't common in this country."

"Carbink has great defense, and it's often used as the defensive core of a team."

"But usually, the recorded Carbink don't have such outstanding attack capabilities."

"That's all I know."

After hearing the explanation, the boy who had lost Teddiursa turned a questioning look toward Victor.

Victor nodded and said, "Indeed, my Carbink has excellent defensive power."

The boy, reassured by Victor's confirmation, sighed in relief. He rationalized that Teddiursa's defense, though strong, was not enough to overcome Carbink at the moment. He was certain that Teddiursa would surpass it once he grew stronger.

"I lost this round, so I'll take Teddiursa to the Pokémon Center to heal," the boy said to Victor. After receiving a nod from Victor, he rushed toward the center.

Having won her first battle, Carbink bounced happily in front of Victor and began acting coquettishly through their connection via wave power.

"Na Na~~Na Na Na!" (partner, partner~ I won!)

Looking at the joyful Carbink, victor smiled. He picked her up with one arm and gently stroked the diamond on her head, saying, "Well~ you win! You did a great job!"

At the same time, victor began to check Carbink's status.

Pokémon: [Carbink] [Mutation 6.5%]

Attributes: [Rock, Fairy]

Gender: [None]

Characteristics: [Clear body]

Level: [5→6]

Moves: [Impact, Harden, Dazzling Gleam, Meteor Beam, Reflective Wall, Light Wall, Ancient Power, Defense Equalization (New)]

After defeating Teddiursa, who was two levels higher, Carbink leveled up, just as Victor had expected.

While victor was holding Carbink, she suddenly spoke up.

"Na na na." (Partner, after defeating Teddiursa, I suddenly feel stronger and my energy has increased.)

Victor thought this was due to the upgrade.

"You're right. This is our power. As long as we keep winning, we'll only grow stronger," Victor explained to Carbink.

System:?

"Na na~" (I see~)
