"I have an idea." Naoki then detailed to the two Pokemon about the Thunder Trial and Storm Trial.
"...Just like Gogoat, they battle with visiting Trainers to gain experience from battling their Pokemon, making you stronger."
"Awoo... Awoo!"
"Pawmo!"
Both Dragonite and Pawmot had seen Gogoat's Grass Trial before.
They knew how powerful Gogoat was, and the thought of being like the three Gogoat made the two Pokemon happily agree.
"Great." Naoki nodded with satisfaction, knowing Dragonite and Pawmot wouldn't refuse.
However, the specifics of the Trial, as well as the tactics and move combinations for Dragonite and Pawmot, still needed to be decided later.
Although he wasn't a professional Trainer, the experiences he had in games could also provide some tactical guidance to the two Pokemon.
At this moment, the other Pokemon in the living room also heard the conversation between Naoki and Dragonite.
Alcremie stood up expectantly, "Mamma?" Would it have its own special Trial too?
"Uh..." This put Naoki in a bit of a dilemma.
After all, Alcremie wasn't a battle Pokemon, and if it were to have a Trial...
A Cream Firing Trial?
Or a luck-based Metronome Trial?
Neither seemed quite right.
After pondering for a moment, Naoki replied, "I haven't thought of something yet. Give me some more time to think it over."
To this, Alcremie was very excited, "Mamma~" It wanted to use its best Metronome to defeat its opponent when the time came!
That said, Naoki felt that Alcremie was just joining in the fun and wasn't seriously intending to battle.
"Oh well, since Alcremie's interested, let it give it a try."
Then Naoki noticed Cyclizar also looking expectantly.
Naoki: "..."
Thinking carefully, Cyclizar didn't seem to have any outstanding qualities at the moment.
Even though it ate the birthday cake that could boost its species strength, it was still the first year, and its specific performance wasn't clear yet.
But seeing Cyclizar's expectant look, Naoki, after some thought, still said, "I'll think of something."
"Gao~" Cyclizar was very happy.
As for Koraidon...
Naoki looked at the lazy Koraidon lying aside, the legendary Winged King didn't seem to want to battle like the other Pokemon.
But that's okay, as with Koraidon's demonstrated strength, defeating it would be like a fairy tale for ordinary people.

When Mew and Teddiursa woke up, it was already three in the afternoon.
The two Pokemon opened their eyes on the bed, momentarily thinking they were still in the outside tree hollow.
Only when they took in their surroundings did they realize—oh, they had already returned to the ranch!
"Eema?"
Teddiursa immediately looked around, starting to search for Naoki's figure.
It jumped off the bed and ran out of the bedroom with Mew, and seeing Naoki wasn't in the living room, they continued running outside.
Sure enough, they saw Naoki in the ranch.
Naoki was leading a group of Pokemon to clear the snow on the ground.
You couldn't feel it now, but in a while, the snow would freeze into ice blocks due to the low temperature, making the roads slippery and easy to fall.
So they had to clear a path in advance to the Pokemon House, Chicken House, Berry Garden, Glass Greenhouse, tavern, stables, and Underground Cave.
Arven was also helping out, secretly observing Naoki. Arven noticed that Mr. Naoki seemed to understand what the Pokemon were saying.
"Mr. Naoki is really impressive!" Arven thought.
At this moment, he saw Mew floating not far away, and his eyes couldn't help but show a look of surprise, "Mr. Naoki, that Pokemon is?!"
Naoki turned to look and replied with a smile, "Them? They are Mew and Teddiursa."
Arven had seen Teddiursa in the Pokedex but had never seen a Mew.
Looking at that unfamiliar pink figure, he couldn't help but mutter, "Mew?"
"Yes." Naoki nodded and said, "The legend is that Mew is an extinct Pokemon, said to have existed in this world for a long time. Some scholars believe Mew is the ancestor of Pokemon."
Hearing this, Arven incredulously asked, "Ancestor?"
Naoki explained, "Because Mew's genetic code contains information on all Pokemon in this world, it can use any move."
"That's... that's amazing!" Arven was tremendously shocked, there was such a Pokemon in this world!
"However, that's not necessarily true, as those are just rumors." Naoki said with a smile, "This Mew is not my Pokemon, it's a friend Teddiursa made."
While speaking, Mew and Teddiursa had already come up to them.
"Eema!" Teddiursa looked up with its bright, black eyes.
Naoki patted its head and said to it, "I'm clearing the snow! I left some sandwiches for you in the living room, you can go eat if you're hungry."
"Eema~" Teddiursa nodded happily.
Meanwhile, Mew, who was glancing around, suddenly seemed to discover something, tilting its head and looking in a direction with its innocent blue eyes.
