"Hey, crazy! That’s Absol, right?" Karen asked, nudging Cain beside her to confirm.
Unintentionally, the sense of mutual hostility between the two had subsided quite a bit, and they even started to seem like battle companions.
"That’s right, let’s go! Let’s check it out!" Cain nodded seriously.
With a leap, Cain mounted his Honchkrow and headed straight for Absol.
Karen saw Cain’s move and quickly got on her Skarmory, flying as fast as she could toward Absol.
It was a crucial mont; she had to hurry to ensure Cain didn’t get ahead of her.
Absol stared at Cain and Karen, who were flying directly over the lake toward her, showing no intention of fleeing, simply watching them in silence.
A minute later, Cain was the first to cross the lake, looking directly at her.
The system activated imdiately, scanning her data.

This Absol was of exceptional quality, in addition to being quite rare, which significantly increased her value.
If not for her low base stats combined with her legend, she might have had the potential to be a legendary Pokémon.
Although Absol’s base stats aren’t high, her 130 physical attack points, paired with a speed of 75, are still quite remarkable.
As a Pokémon, Absol holds great breeding value.
She can appear before disasters occur thanks to her psychic move: Future Sight!
This is a move Absol learns from birth, and as she grows stronger and older, her mastery over this move improves, allowing her to foresee the future with greater precision and at greater distances.
Additionally, Absol is generally a calm Pokémon, and with her premonition ability, she tends to approach humans of good character naturally.
Of course, with her move Perish Song, she can also be extrely terrifying. Her attitude can completely change depending on the person or Pokémon she encounters.
However, now that Cain and Karen, with clear malicious intent, stood before her, and she showed no signs of wanting to flee, was it because she sensed sothing? Or had she discovered sothing?
Karen arrived a step behind Cain at the shore, but seeing that Absol had no intention of fleeing, she was also surprised.
Roselia, standing beside her, tugged at Karen’s clothes with a hesitant expression.
"Abs~~!"
Absol let out a soft sound, her voice light and playful, as if providing comfort to the hearts of those who heard her.
"The psychic power of this Absol is quite strong." Although Cain didn’t have much psychic power himself, he could feel a strong wave of psychic energy emanating from Absol.
As a Dark-type Pokémon, possessing such strong psychic power indicated that Absol was quite powerful.
It was as if Absol could hear Cain’s thoughts, and her red eyes locked directly onto his.
The eyes, the window to the soul—if observed closely enough, they can reveal sothing of the inner state.
Suddenly, in Absol’s red eyes, a faint red psychic glow appeared, directly connecting to the minds of Cain and Karen.
"Telepathy?"
Cain was slightly startled.
"Help... I need... help," Absol said clumsily, still learning to use telepathy.
However, Cain understood her ssage.
Was she not fleeing because she was seeking help?
Cain remained silent, but Karen interjected, "You need help? Are you asking for help from us?"
For so reason, Karen could sense a feeling of plea from her.
However, Absol didn’t speak again, only looking at Karen once, then at Cain, who remained silent, before turning around and letting out a soft cry, signaling them to follow her.
With a mindset of "let’s see what happens," Cain followed Absol.
It didn’t take long before Absol led them to the entrance of a cave.
Absol entered the cave directly, and Cain and Karen exchanged glances before following her.
This cave was unlike the one Cain had entered before, which had been dark, damp, and slippery. This cave was quite dry, and the temperature was comfortable.
As they ventured deeper, they discovered why Absol had sought their help.
At the back of the cave, there was a pile of dry straw, and besides the Absol from before, there were three small Absols.
They were her children!
Cain was stunned. Had this Absol given birth to three children?
It was the first ti he’d ever seen Absol pups.
The Absol mother looked at Cain with a hint of doubt, then let out a soft sound, inviting them to co closer.
The Absol mother, since early morning, had sensed through her powerful Future Sight move that sothing was stalking her, but she didn’t have the ability to escape, as she had three newborn pups.
Most importantly, one of her children had been sick since birth and had yet to recover.
She had tried everything she knew, but nothing had worked.
Absol’s Future Sight move could only perceive so things, and unless it was a major event, she couldn’t see a clear image.
So she knew soone had malicious intentions toward her but didn’t know who.
In the afternoon, following her sixth sense, she felt she should appear by the lake, so she went straight there.
She didn’t want her pups to be endangered because of her issues. If soone was going to attack her, better it happened at the lake.
However, when she saw Cain and Karen on the other side of the lake, for so reason, she felt that the man, clearly malicious, had the ability to save her pups.
And with the woman, she sensed sothing very special, as if this person was extrely lucky, as if she were blessed by the heavens.
For so inexplicable reason, she chose to trust them, even when the man showed even more malice after entering the cave, but she still chose to trust.
This was her maternal sixth sense.
In fact, when Cain saw Absol and her three little ones, his first thought was: This is a big deal!
How many resources could be gained from four Absol?
Surely the pups of a Light Blue-quality Absol would also have remarkable quality, right?
