It was 6 am, and the team was ready to go out.
"All of you know the drill, but I will repeat it again. You are to explore this unknown island and capture anything that interests you. You have a scientist on your team. I want you to care about your life more than this mission, so I want you to co ho. Each of you has 2 distress signals, and you can use them in tis of ergencies. Each team also has a Pokémon that can use 'Teleport.' I want all of you to be safe. Now get ready, you are departing in 2 minutes," said Andrew.
He gave a long speech. It was always thrilling to start these types of adventures, but there were risks too.

C. Scizor (Pseudo-king rank)
D. Pinsir (elental rank)

They had a diverse type of Pokémon for almost every situation. Ro was also a good leader. Axel felt that they were experienced and not as clueless as Lance and Lorelai.
The electronics scanned the map of the island through the satellite. They were told to reach the center of the island where there was a big volcanic mountain. Sothing about that place was mysterious.
The first 2 days were normal. They fought so fire-type Pokémon, as there were only fire-type Pokémon on the island. They didn't find anything interesting. Most of the Pokémon they encountered were in elental rank.
It had been speculated that powerful fire-type Pokémon lived on this volcanic island. They also found nurous small caves unfit for them to enter. The team realized that all the Pokémon they had encountered so far were fire-type, and they had high fire resistance. Other than that, there was nothing new.
However, they were curious to prove themselves and discover the secret of the island. And behold, on the 3rd day, they made a discovery.
###
It was a Butterfree.
This was a new find. Butterfree was not a fire-type Pokémon; it was a bug type that was weak against fire. So how was it surviving on the island?
Ro had told Axel not to use Beedrill, and Axel realized he was right. The temperature was too high for a bug-type Pokémon to showcase its full power. Yet, this Butterfree looked unaffected.
Axel looked at its stats:
----
Pokemon's na: Butterfree (Age - 40 Years)
Pokemon Nickna: None
Pokemon rank: Pseudo-king
Ability: Compound eyes (mastered)
Hidden ability: Tinted lens (100%)
Potential: Purple
Health: 2500/2500 Attack: C
Agility: B Defense: B
Sp. Atk: A Sp. Def: C
Moves: Sunny Day, Solar Beam, Psychic, String Shot, Sleep Powder, Aerial Ace, Quiver Dance, Bug Buzz, Confusion, Bug Life, String Pierce, Fire Conversion
Bug core: Mastered
----
Now that was a strong Pokémon. With 3 new moves, purple potential, impressive stats, and excellent mastery over its ability and hidden ability, Butterfree looked nacing.
It was also much bigger than a normal Butterfree. A regular Butterfree was around 3-4 feet tall, but this Butterfree stood at around 7 feet.
What interested Axel the most was its ability, 'Compound Eyes.' It was ntioned as 'mastered,' while its hidden ability was '100%.' This was confusing. What was the difference between the two?
Another striking thing was one of its new moves, 'Fire Conversion.' Axel didn't know what it did, but the na of the move indicated that it had adapted to this environnt.
"Axel, do you want to capture this one?" asked Ro.
They had encountered so pseudo-king rank Pokémon on the way, but none were as strong as this one. Ro wanted to see the true battle powers of Axel and his Pokémon.
"Let's do it, Light, Marcus," shouted Axel. Both of them were already outside. They took their battle positions and got ready.
Shedinja was also a bug-type Pokémon, but it had a ghost-type core, making it suitable for this trip. Although it could get burned from the high heat, Shedinja insisted on joining Axel on this trip.
The group was primarily confused about Axel using Shedinja. It was considered one of the weakest Pokémon in existence. So why was Axel, an aspiring Pokémon trainer, training one?
When they were ready for battle, Shedinja disappeared using 'Shadow Jump.'
First of all, Alakazam used 'Calm Mind.' While training for 'Elental Manipulation' and 'Greater Telekinesis,' it preferred to use 'Calm Mind' to boost its Sp. Attack and leveled it up to 40.
Alakazam could now use 'Calm Mind' 4 tis, and now that it was leveled up to 40, it could use this move very quickly during the battle. It could be used during an ongoing battle.
It used 'Calm Mind' once and teleported to the right side of Butterfree. Five large shadow tentacles erged from the ground, binding Butterfree, and Alakazam used 'Flathrower' at point-blank range.
