Chapter Summaries

Fang Yuan learned that Ray Pemba had found no Z-Crystals, leaving him worried that Z-Moves could not be used in this world. After studying how Z-Crystals were made, Fang Yuan realized Eevee might be able to master Natural Energy and imitate their creation.

• Ray Pemba told Fang Yuan he had found no Z-Crystals, but offered to collect Shining Stones and Evolution Stones and show him his mineral collection.
• Ray Pemba invited Fang Yuan to tour the United States and gave him access to museums and properties under his name.
• Jiang Li suggested visiting a Battle Club, while Fang Yuan preferred the Fossil Museum and agreed to accompany Jiang Li if he wanted to battle.
• After settling in for the night, Fang Yuan and Rotom searched for information about Z-Crystals, Key Stones, and Mega Stones but found no leads.
• Fang Yuan reasoned that Z-Crystals drew on Natural Energy and wondered whether Eevee could master it and simulate their creation.

Fang Yuan reworked his plans for Eevee’s Return 5.0, imagining it could create Z-Move-like attacks without Z-Crystals by harnessing Natural Energy and light. The next day, Ray Pemba showed Fang Yuan and Jiang Li his collection of rare stones, where Fang Yuan spotted another Mega Stone.

• Fang Yuan devised a plan for Eevee to use Emotional Energy and the Destructive Gene to shape light energy into Z-Crystal-like constructs and strengthen moves into Z-Moves.
• Fang Yuan decided to put Return 5.0 on the agenda and spend the night thinking about how to create substitutes for Z-Crystals.

• Fang Yuan and Jiang Li saw rare items including the Awakening Light, a Soul Suppressing Stone, the Heart of the Ocean, and a Volcano Keystone.
• Fang Yuan spotted a yellow-and-black Mega Stone at the end of the collection and considered it a possible gift, though he had no use for it himself.

• Bulbasaur finally defeated the weakened Eevee phantom after days of battling, and Fang Yuan decided it was ready to evolve.
• Fang Yuan explained that he would follow the Venusaur Forest leader's evolution method to help Bulbasaur absorb abundant natural Life Energy.
• A Master Level Sandslash tilled the soil, a Master Level Venusaur used Grassy Terrain, Luo Ke provided sunlight, and Milotic supplied Purification Water to prepare a special habitat.
• Fang Yuan guided Bulbasaur to use Ingrain, create and swallow a compressed Energy Ball, and then use Growth while his Heart Power strengthened its Willpower.

• Fang Yuan's Infernape opened with a ranged Fire Punch, but Mienshao cut it apart with Focus Punch and then dodged Infernape's Thunder Mach Punch with Detect.
• Infernape used Moon Step to fight Mienshao in the air, seized the initiative, and inflicted heavier injuries on it.

• Fang Yuan recognized Mienshao's Aura as Top Level Combat Power and activated Heart Power, linking his power with Infernape's.

• Xu Haoran suggested that Infernape train Power-Up Punch, while Fang Yuan wondered whether He Xiaomai had Aura Power talent.

After training with Xu Haoran, Fang Yuan and Infernape gained experience, and Xu Haoran urged them to seek harsher training environments, including Mount Everest.

Fang Yuan arranged for He Xiaomai to become Manaphy’s spokesperson after three years of training, while Manaphy agreed to help her and Golduck grow stronger. Fang Yuan then discussed Dragon Island and Dragonite’s recovery with Manaphy before asking to train with Eevee and Dragonite at the Sea God Temple.
