A New Target for Farming Points!

Two and a half hours earlier.

In a snowy stretch of forest.

"Students these days really are hopeless. Forgetting to give commands is one thing, but how did she faint?"

A White-Clothed Hunter stared at the unconscious female student in the snow, at a loss for words.

He had only just had Mightyena defeat her Pokémon. Before he could even threaten her, she had collapsed.

He honestly didn't know what to say.

"Who knows? Hurry up and tie her up. Let's carry her back to camp. She'll catch a cold if she lies there much longer."

"Right. Let's go."

The first man nodded and stepped forward.

Just then, a brown-and-white figure appeared at the edge of the sky.

"Heyru!!"

Mightyena, which had been keeping watch, spotted it at once and barked a warning.

"Hold on. We've got another job."

The other man spoke up.

"Mastiff Godfather, get ready to use Scary Face."

"Awooo!!"

The Mastiff Godfather, covered in long gray-brown fur, nodded. His relaxed expression tightened at once.

"Mightyena, get ready to use Howl."

"Heyru!"

Mightyena nodded too.

The two had worked together before. Their Scary Face and Howl ambush slowed their opponent while boosting their own attack power, making it a perfect fit for their two-dog team.

"Does it feel like the snow suddenly got heavier?"

The Mastiff Godfather's Trainer watched the breeze pick up and snowflakes swirl around them, puzzled.

"Maybe a blizzard's coming."

Mightyena's Trainer thought nothing of it.

After years on the frontier, he was used to wind and snow.

Especially a little flurry like this.

"No. Changqing isn't like Heijiang. Sudden blizzards are rare here... It's an Ice-type Pokémon!"

The moment he finished speaking, the wind and snow around them seemed to come alive. Their slow drift surged into a series of terrifying Ice Storms.
