The appearance of another powerful Pokémon startled Kyle, and this one was a Pokémon he had never seen or even heard of.
The records in the Secret Realm were incomplete, and unlike people outside, its inhabitants could not freely look up information online. Their knowledge of Pokémon was limited to those listed in the Pokédex.
"Diancie, use Earth Power. Carefully push this soil aside and find the Secret Realm Entrance to the War Ruins!" Xiao Ran said.
"Okay!" Diancie nodded and began moving the soil.
"Wh-what? It can talk?" Hearing Diancie speak left Kyle utterly stunned.

"Remember to keep it a secret! I don't want people hunting me down all day!" Xiao Ran said with a shrug and a smile.
"Yes! Yes! I promise I won't tell anyone!" Kyle nodded frantically, terrified that he might be killed to keep him quiet.
Diancie moved the soil quickly. With Earth Power, the soil automatically parted to either side, piling up nearby.
The ground before Diancie sank lower and lower. Before long, a surface paved with bricks and stone appeared before Xiao Ran and the others, but the work was far from over.
