The battle had no suspense.
Whether it was the Water-type Hydro Pump, or the Fighting-type Sacred Sword.
Neither of the two moves Keldeo was best at could cause any damage to Hydreigon.
After all, Hydreigon is a Champion-level Pokémon.
This point.
After Will learned that Hydreigon was the Elder's Pokémon, he also expected it.
As a partner traveling together.
Carolina embarked on the path of a Pokémon Professor, and has Champion-level Pokémon in her team.
There's no reason why the Elder, who has been walking the path of a Dragon-type specialist trainer, doesn't have one.
Although Keldeo was instantly defeated (one-shotted) by Hydreigon's Dragon Rage (or similar move).
But Will still saw the strength of Hydreigon.
Stronger than those few Second-Level Gods at the bottom.
But not enough to compare with the two little airplanes (Latias/Latios) and Cresselia.
Overall, still very strong.
Kyurem without rging the power of Black and White, combat power should be about more than ten tis that of this Hydreigon.
"I lost."
Keldeo returned to Will's side dejectedly, lying down motionless.
"Now you know the gap?"
Will smiled and patted his head.
Keldeo shook his head, seeming sowhat depressed.
Looks like he was hit hard.
"Just slumped like this?"
"I failed."
Keldeo covered his face with two front hooves.
Will frowned, pinching his chin with one hand to think for a mont.
This child has always been practicing hard with the Swords of Justice, but probably haven't battled against other Pokémon many tis at all, only fought with the three masters.
And judging from the performance in the movie, this kind of fighting was really just sparring, stopping at the point, finishing after a few touches.
Then.
Just now might be the first ti Keldeo was beaten to "lose combat capability" turning into swirling eyes?
No wonder the blow to Keldeo was so big.
"Mm, the first ti given to a Champion-level Hydreigon, Keldeo can also be proud for a while."
Will nodded to himself.
He probably found where Keldeo's problem lies.
The number of actual combats is close to zero, leading to unclear cognition of his own strength, and too eager to catch up with the footsteps of the three masters, seeking quick success.
When challenging Opelucid Gym before.
Will discovered it.
Facing Pokémon battles, Keldeo has interest and curiosity completely not inferior to little N.
This is obviously because haven't battled personally much, so yearning for Pokémon battles.
In this case.
Will knows how to hone Keldeo.
"Keldeo, failure is the mother of success; have you heard this sentence?"
Will lifted the little colt up.
"No."
Keldeo shook his head, confusion showing in his eyes.
"Failure is not useless; at least it allows you to accumulate experience."
"Accumulate experience?"
"That's right; with the accumulation of experience, you will beco stronger and stronger. Those that don't kill you will eventually make you stronger, until one day you can really reach the level of standing opposite Kyurem."
Will nodded, pausing for a mont when saying this.
He thought of Kazan.
At the end of the first civil war, Rami chose not to kill Kazan, setting him as a pawn in the plan.
But this pawn was obviously far stronger than in the past.
It was not sothing Rami could control.
Even exceeded Will's expectations.
One move Illusion (Zoroark's ability) overlord, deceiving people, stealing the sky and changing the sun, attracting Rami's attention, forcefully capturing him, the teacher, alive.
One move removing firewood from under the cauldron (drastic asures), turning from guest to host, controlling the Kingdom of Bounty royal family, turning the Kingdom of Bounty into a puppet kingdom in palm.
One move borrowing a knife to kill, beating soone at their own ga, following Rami's plan to use his troops to purge the Kingdom of Blessings for himself.
If Will hadn't brought Victini and Druddigon, two trump cards, to the Kingdom of the Vale.
In the end, Rami couldn't be Kazan's opponent.
The one unifying the continent, most likely would be Kazan.
Will still doesn't know until now, Kazan was not killed by Rami, but chose suicide.
He also thought the Kingdom of the Vale won relying on Victini and Druddigon, didn't know it was Kazan who chose to yield.
Anyway.
The failure of the first civil war.
Made Kazan grow too much, far exceeding Rami's growth rate.
So.
Failure is absolutely not useless.
"Those that don't kill will make stronger."
Keldeo's eyes lit up.
Found Lord Will is simply a philosopher, always able to say a lot of words that sound very cool and powerful!
"Mm, victory will bring you a sense of achievent, but if relying entirely on a sense of achievent to support yourself moving forward, you can't go far; because tis of failure are far more than tis of getting achievent. Relying only on a sense of achievent to support yourself, you will soon be drowned by failure."
Will extended a finger tapping on Keldeo's forehead,
"You are like this now."
Past Keldeo never encountered obstacles on the road of practice.
His masters are the famous "Swords of Justice" in human mouths.
Inevitably felt proud and complacent from the bottom of his heart.
This will make Keldeo lost.
Believe this defeat to Hydreigon will definitely make his xinxing (ntal state/character) grow.
Next.
Just need to hone himself constantly.
Depends on whether Keldeo has the courage to face Hydreigon again.
"I won't fall down just like this!"
Keldeo jumped up suddenly; the horn on his head almost poked Will's chin.
'Actually a bit different from that one in the ani.'
Will sighed with clear emotion in his heart.
That Keldeo in the original movie was called disappointing.
Before challenging Kyurem.
Confident, arrogant, looking full of courage, actually extrely reckless.
Up to here, the two Keldeo are about the sa.
But later is different.
The mont Keldeo in the movie stood in front of Kyurem.
Directly cowardly (wilted).
Scared by Kyurem's terrifying montum, legs soft, trembling constantly.
Later the "sword" on his head was broken by Kyurem, even started running away everywhere; just this one failure made him completely lose the courage to face Kyurem.
Three masters also because coming to save him, were directly frozen into ice blocks by Kyurem.
Halfway Ash and his group encouraged constantly, risking lives to save.
Result in the end.
Almost let Ash and Pikachu face Kyurem alone, planning to abandon the three frozen masters and leave by himself.
Fortunately, in the end not incurable, ca back to comprehend Secret Sword, obtaining Kyurem's recognition.
But this can no longer change Will's impression of him.
If the three Sacred Swords entrust that Keldeo to him, he will refuse without hesitation.
Fortunately.
The two Keldeo are different after all.
Facing such terrifying and powerful Hydreigon, Keldeo didn't show the slightest fear from beginning to end.
Even if finally instant-killed by one move without any resistance.
After getting up, he was not afraid facing Hydreigon.
Just simply felt disappointed and dejected about his own strength.
Encouraged slightly a few words, cheered up again, regaining the courage to face strong enemies.
This is called true bravery!
Much stronger than that one in the movie.
"Alright, take a rest; after recovering physical strength, go challenge other Pokémon."
Will pointed to the Pokémon on this grassland,
"There are many powerful Dragon-type Pokémon here; you might be able to gain a lot of experience usable when battling Kyurem from them."
"Yes!"
Little horse stood at attention!
"Rember to be polite, initiate battle invitation fair and square; if they are unwilling, you can't pester them."
"Yes!"
Raised hand to rub Keldeo's lon head.
Will turned and headed towards the central small square.
He rembered little N seed to be strolling around there just now.
Many people gathered there.
Little N was observing other people's walking styles there.
But when arrived at the place.
Will found little N was chatting with a little girl.
That was a girl looking about twelve years old, sitting in a wheelchair.
White and tender, delicate skin, black hair tied casually into a small ponytail on the head, wearing a light and fluttering white dress.
Looking a bit less youthful than Cynthia, but a bit more cute.
Don't know why.
Sitting in a wheelchair at the sa age as Cynthia, looked strangely pitiful.
Little N was held in that girl's arms.
One big and one small sitting together basking in the sun.
"N."
Will approached.
"Will."
N got down from the young lady's lap, walked to Will's side holding his hand,
"Can you treat her illness?"
N pointed to that young lady who was very gentle to him.
"Hm? Hello~ My na is Wendy; was basking in the sun with your friend just now."
Seeing N pulling a Pokémon over, the little girl smiled and raised her hand to wave.
"What happened to your legs?"
Will looked down at Wendy's legs.
From appearance seed no problem.
Perceiving through Aura.
Wendy's life aura is much weaker than peers, but besides this can't feel anything else wrong.
"Hm? My legs are fine."
Wendy was stunned first, then looked at her legs, patting casually.
She supported herself on the armrests of the wheelchair, stood up, and even walked two steps for them to see.
Will looked at N doubtfully.
"Sister Wendy is sick."
N showed confusion in his eyes, couldn't say why.
He could feel Wendy's physical condition was wrong.
But he couldn't say it.
"How do you know?"
A surprised look appeared in Wendy's eyes.
She hadn't told this little brother about her situation before.
Speaking of which.
She felt quite strange from the beginning.
This little doll obviously not very good at walking, suddenly squatted by her leg, staring at her quietly motionless.
Wendy thought he was tired of walking.
So held him to bask in the sun together.
Looking at it now...
This child seems to be worried about her body.
"Um..."
Will frowned looking at Wendy.
Accurately speaking, looking at the Aura in her body.
He couldn't see what illness Wendy's body had.
But judging from the weakness of this body, indeed might suffer from so problems.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter; not an illness worth worrying about."
Wendy reached out to gently touch the heads of the two cuties, showing a gentle smile on her face.
