The Doll With a Weak Sense of Presence

Nemo witnessed everything.

As if infected by Dragonite's power and Luo Mu's calm demeanor, Nemo's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but let out a short, sharp sigh.

So.

This was what a Trainer was?

Nemo's mind flashed back to the helplessness she felt when kidnapped by the bandits, and she suddenly made up her mind.

Luo Mu didn't notice Nemo's change in mood. He took out his phone to confirm the message sent to the Pingdie Town Police Station had been delivered, then looked towards the building that seemed to be a warehouse and murmured, "This side is suppressed. It should be about the same on Luxray's side."

Luo Mu jumped off Dragonite, then carefully carried Nemo down from his back.

Nemo, resting her chin on Luo Mu's shoulder, felt her ear tips turn slightly red, finding him incredibly reliable.

Suddenly, Nemo, who was enjoying the sense of security Luo Mu provided, noticed a pair of sharp, terrifying, dark purple claws extending from Luo Mu's shadow in the sunlight, slowly approaching his legs.

Nemo's pupils constricted, her face showing panic.

Neither Luo Mu, who was focused on the warehouse, nor Dragonite in the air noticed any of this.

Returning to a short while ago.

Led by Luxray, five Pokémon, with clear division of labor, burst out of their Poké Balls and headed straight for the warehouse.

As they charged, Luxray's yellow eyes began to glow, eventually turning a near brilliant gold.

Luxray's brilliant golden eyes shone like torches. Its unique racial talent, "Foresight," began to take effect. The obstacles made of Metal Coat and stone bricks could no longer block Luxray's vision.

Looking around, everything inside the dilapidated warehouse was laid bare.

Several Pokémon guarded the east and west windows.

In the center of the warehouse were five people: three children lying on the ground, looking weak, and two adult kidnappers.

Luxray narrowed its eyes, beginning to strategize how to deploy its forces to ensure the children could be rescued without any mishaps.

A direct assault was out of the question; their size would be instantly noticed.

Using Intimidate to forcefully deter the enemies like Dragonite would be the easiest option, but a single misstep could harm the children, who were already extremely fragile from fear.

The only way was to carefully select who the Intimidate would affect.

However, neither it, Swampert, nor Ceruledge could achieve that level of precise control.

In that case, it seemed the only option was to ask Serperior if it was confident.

Luxray lowered its voice and let out a few growls, conveying its thoughts.

Soon, Serperior, who had arrived at the edge of the warehouse, responded, "Kala!" (No problem!)

Luxray nodded slightly, instructing Ceruledge and Swampert to suppress the Pokémon by the west window, while it would handle the Pokémon by the east window alone.

The moment their intrusion distracted the kidnappers, Serperior would use Intimidate on the kidnappers and then Vine Whip

to rescue the three children.

The instant the plan was formed, the four Pokémon swiftly began to carry out their respective duties.

Luxray, clad in a suit of lightning, smashed through the walls and windows with ferocious power, electrocuting three guarding Golbats into unconsciousness.

Swampert raised its muscular right arm high, Ceruledge leaped up, and then Swampert hurled it towards the west window!

At the same time, the Flame Blades on Ceruledge's arms ignited with Vengeful Fire. Regretful Sword shattered three Rattata along with the wall, incapacitating them into unconsciousness.

The three Pokémon were careful in their attacks, ensuring they weren't fatal.

As the goatee and the tall, thin man froze in shock, Serperior's Intimidate surged towards them like a tide, instantly paralyzing their bodies.

Serperior controlled its power perfectly, not affecting the three children at all.

Simultaneously, Verdant Vine sliced through the air, coiling around the three children who were being dragged by ropes by the two men, their faces filled with terror, and pulling them towards itself.

Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion.

Only Mimikyu, standing dumbfounded at the entrance with a bewildered expression, looked around, realizing it had once again been overlooked.

Although this was common, and Luxray and the others didn't intentionally ignore it, they subconsciously overlooked it due to Mimikyu's own faint presence.

However, Mimikyu still extended a pair of Shadow Claws capable of tearing steel from beneath its plush exterior, playfully batting its claws in a moment of self-pity, deciding to go find Luo Mu, the only one who wouldn't ignore it, to act cute.

After all, Luxray and the others had already resolved the situation.

Mimikyu slipped into the shadows of the wild grass, traveling through the connections between shadows towards Luo Mu's shadow, who had just jumped off Dragonite.

A few breaths later, appearing in Luo Mu's shadow, Mimikyu extended its Shadow Claw from the darkness, wanting to tug at Luo Mu's capris to get his attention.

Then, Mimikyu saw the panicked expression of the girl on Luo Mu's shoulder, tilted its head, and hesitantly spoke.

"Miku?"

"Huh? Mimikyu, what are you doing here?"

Luo Mu reacted quickly. The moment he heard Mimikyu's confused call, he knew the child had once again slipped into his shadow.

Nemo's panicked expression froze, then quickly turned to bewilderment and daze.

Was this Pokémon, called Mimikyu by Big Brother, his partner?

So, I panicked
