Professor Kukui's office.
When Professor Kukui was little, he had once taken Litten into the forest to look for opponents.
It was on that trip
that he saw a Kubfu challenging Bewear.
Then Bewear beat Kubfu senseless in a completely one-sided fight.
After that, Kubfu evolved.
But that still did nothing to change the outcome of their battle.
With another punch, Bewear knocked out the newly evolved Single Strike Style Urshifu.
Then, when Bewear spotted Professor Kukui, he took Litten and ran for it.
He ran without even looking back.
Was he kidding? Challenge Bewear?
He might never have had an Incineroar if he had.
The forest on the Back Mountain that Professor Kukui described sounded very much like the place where the Bear God-Bewear-lived.
If it was that Bewear, and assuming nobody had caught the evolved Urshifu,
then the reason Professor Kukui hadn't found Kubfu or Urshifu was most likely that Urshifu had already left.
But Li Wei felt that would only have been temporary.
As long as Urshifu hadn't defeated Bewear,
given Urshifu's personality,
it would definitely return to challenge Bewear again.
However, that depended on Urshifu not having been caught in the meantime. Otherwise, there was no point discussing it.
But Professor Kukui had said this happened when he was little, which meant at least twenty years ago. It probably wouldn't be coming back now.
Or perhaps Urshifu had returned to challenge Bewear during that time, but still hadn't won.
Or perhaps it had won,
and then left.
But if that was the Bear God, Bewear...
Li Wei leaned toward it not having won.
The Bear God was a Battle Legend even in its normal state.
A veteran powerhouse, terrifyingly strong.
When the Bear God was angry, it was even more terrifying.
Even Lucario wasn't certain it
