Fang Yuan learned that the Psychic Ruins drawing attention in Sinnoh were actually Base Island, which Mewtwo had left hidden and unguarded. After the island’s exposure drew a growing crowd of Psychics, Fang Yuan proposed turning the intruders into sparring partners for the island’s Pokémon.

Fang Yuan and Sabrina traveled to Sinnoh to investigate the Psychic Ruins, where Lucian had gathered powerful Psychics to break the seal. Their arrival at the cruise-ship banquet caused alarm when Sabrina’s Psychic Power joined Caitlin’s among the assembled guests.

• Lucian invited Psychics from around the world to help him enter the Psychic Ruins after failing twice.

• The guests recognized Sabrina and realized that both she and Caitlin, two formidable Psychic Girls, had arrived.

Fang Yuan and Sabrina boarded Lucian’s cruise to the Psychic Ruins, where Sabrina clashed with Caitlin and agreed to compete with her to break the ruins’ seal.

• Fang Yuan agreed that Infernape, Victini, and Ditto would challenge Lucian, and the cruise continued toward the Psychic Ruins.

Lucian and the gathered psychics tried to break the seal around the Psychic Ruins, but a strange mist transported Lucian and Bronzong inside while the others remained on the ship. As Fang Yuan and Mewtwo watched, Lucian explored the Colosseum and encountered a powerful Infernape.

• Lucian explained that the island's seal resisted even Champion-level attacks, and Caitlin joked that its owner might have returned.
• A strange mist swept over the ship, resisted the psychics' attacks, and left Lucian and Bronzong missing.
• Lucian realized the mist had brought him into the ruins and set off to explore the Colosseum with Bronzong and his main team.
• Fang Yuan and Mewtwo watched Lucian through surveillance as Fang Yuan prepared Infernape to take the stage.
• Lucian's Pokémon sensed a powerful presence in a dark passage and surrounded him protectively.
• Lucian saw an Infernape emerge from the passage and wondered why one was inside the Psychic Ruins.

Lucian entered the ruins and was swiftly defeated by a powerful Infernape guarding the passage, then returned to the cruise ship and urged the others to take the ruins seriously. As the Elite Four discussed sending reinforcements, Caitlin disappeared.

• Lucian recognized Infernape as an exceptionally powerful opponent, but accepted its challenge and ordered his Pokémon to attack together.
• Lucian's five Pokémon combined Gravity and Psychic Terrain while Gallade attacked, but Infernape opened the Sixth Gate, shattered the field, and defeated all six Pokémon in seconds.
• Mewtwo teleported Lucian and his battered Pokémon back to the cruise ship, where the gathered psychics questioned him about his disappearance.
• Lucian recounted the battle, warned that the ruins required more support, and messaged Sinnoh's Elite Four and Cynthia; Ooba mocked him for losing to an Infernape.
• Shi Lan announced that Caitlin had disappeared, leaving Lucian stunned.

Fang Yuan chose Caitlin as the next challenger and prepared his Pokémon while Armored Magnezone sent Infernape back to the starting point for more training. Caitlin reached the Colosseum, where she encountered Armored Magnezone and saw through its claim that it was an evolved Pokémon.

• Caitlin sensed that a psychic presence had brought her to the island, then entered the Colosseum after receiving no response to her calls.
• Caitlin saw Armored Magnezone emerge from the passage and rejected its claim that it had evolved.

Fang Yuan sent Armored Magnezone to battle Caitlin, whose Gothitelle reached Champion-level strength through her Psychic Power. Armored Magnezone overwhelmed Gothitelle with its fused power, while Mewtwo revealed that Cynthia and Aaron had arrived and threatened to make Cynthia the next sparring partner.

• Fang Yuan chose Armored Magnezone to face Caitlin, and Caitlin objected that it was actually three Pokémon because two Klinklang were attached to it.
• Caitlin sent out Gothitelle and enhanced it until its Psychic Power reached Champion-level strength, creating a Different Dimension around the Colosseum.
• Armored Magnezone activated Soul-Heart Resonance, merged its Psychic Wave with the Klinklang's, and unleashed an Electromagnetic Storm that shattered Gothitelle's Light Screen and sent it flying.
• Fang Yuan praised the battle as useful training and asked Mewtwo to keep arranging sparring matches, but Mewtwo pointed out that Caitlin looked close to tears.
• Mewtwo told Fang Yuan that Aaron and Cynthia had arrived, then teased him by agreeing to three daily matches and threatening to bring Cynthia in to battle his Pokémon.

Cynthia broke the seal around the island, but its rebound sent Garchomp crashing through Lucian's cruise ship. Inside the ruins, Mewtwo returned Caitlin after defeating her team, while Fang Yuan learned Celebi had brought another Celebi and planned to create a stable passage between worlds.

• Aaron and Lucian discussed Caitlin's disappearance as Cynthia arrived and agreed to try breaking the seal with Garchomp.
• Garchomp tore open the seal, but it immediately restored itself and blasted Garchomp into Lucian's cruise ship.
• Celebi returned to Mewtwo's ruins with a Celebi from the parallel timeline, while Mewtwo decided to let Cynthia challenge Fang Yuan and teleported the defeated Caitlin outside.
• Fang Yuan learned the two Celebi and Victini could work together to open a stable Time-Space Channel, though Celebi reminded him to find the Plates.
• Caitlin told Cynthia that a powerful Psychic-type Legendary Pokémon controlled the ruins and described losing to an Armored Magnezone formed from Magnezone and two Klinklang.

Fang Yuan stopped Mewtwo from pulling Cynthia into Psychic Castle to battle and suggested recruiting her as an accomplice to find sparring partners. After Aaron was unexpectedly teleported into the ruins, Fang Yuan appeared before Cynthia, leaving her astonished.

• Fang Yuan convinced Mewtwo not to summon Cynthia and proposed asking her to help recruit trainers for battles.
• Fang Yuan suggested Aaron as a sparring partner for Darkrai, while Mewtwo said it preferred battling Legendary Pokémon.
• As the cruise ship prepared to leave, Aaron was suddenly teleported into the ruins, shocking Lucian and the other trainers.
• Cynthia wondered why the ruins had not chosen her when Fang Yuan approached and greeted her.
• Cynthia recognized Fang Yuan and asked why he was there.

Fang Yuan returned from the ruins and told Sabrina and Cynthia that he had visited a Legendary Pokémon, while hiding its identity. The chapter left Aaron back from the ruins, asleep and terrified after encountering Darkrai.

• Sabrina sensed Fang Yuan's return and found him talking with Cynthia, then demanded an explanation for his disappearance.
• Fang Yuan told Sabrina and Cynthia that he had entered the ruins to visit a Legendary Pokémon and asked them to keep it secret.
• Cynthia suspected that Fang Yuan's Pokémon had been the powerful guardians who had attacked Lucian and Caitlin.
• Aaron returned from the ruins in less than ten minutes, asleep and clutching his Pokémon while pleading for something not to come closer.
• Fang Yuan wondered why Darkrai had put Aaron to sleep despite Aaron's advantage against Dark-types.

Darkrai defeated Aaron and his Bug-type Pokémon instantly by spreading the Nightmare Domain across the Colosseum before they arrived. Fang Yuan and Cynthia agreed to let Sinnoh use the ruin as a training ground, leaving Aaron, Lucian, and Caitlin unaware of Fang Yuan’s connection to it.

• Darkrai’s Nightmare Domain knocked Aaron and his Bug-type Pokémon unconscious as soon as they entered the Colosseum.
• Mewtwo observed that Aaron’s team was too weak to challenge Darkrai and suggested Victini strengthen future challengers.
• Fang Yuan asked Cynthia to keep the ruin’s connection to him secret and proposed using it to train Trainers.
• Cynthia agreed to treat the ruin as a safe training ground, believing it could help Sinnoh’s Elite Four improve.
• Fang Yuan and Cynthia privately accepted a mutual arrangement: Sinnoh’s Trainers would challenge his Pokémon, and his Pokémon would gain training from them.
• Fang Yuan pulled Sabrina away from the scheming pair so she would not reveal their arrangement.

After returning to the cruise ship, Fang Yuan tried and failed to learn Sabrina’s family Meditation Method, hoping to improve his Psychic Power before the World Championships Knockout Round. The next morning, Cynthia told him Lucian had created a group chat for Trainers who had entered the ruins, and Fang Yuan decided to find a way to join it.

• Fang Yuan enjoyed the cruise ship banquet with Eevee before settling in for the three-day Psychic Banquet.
