Chapter 23 From Eros to Sore

With his Jangmo-o and his Hakamo-o newly caught and additions to Kizuna Hida's Pokémon Team. Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and the others decide leave the Poni Island and heads back to Melemele Island. But as they went back, Kizuna Hida soon suddenly realized that Professor Kukui and Burnet might be upset with them. When Raku Ichijo told him not to worry about and they had arrived back to Melemele Island, Professor Kukui was waiting at the port. Professor Kukui was upset with them and Kizuna Hida then explains to him about the scenarios but kept his transformation a secret.

As Kizuna Hida told him, Professor Kukui accepts their apologies and told them to let him know where they were going to. Kizuna Hida, Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo and Basara Toujou responded to Professor Kukui that they will notify him first. After that, Professor Kukui told them to come over to his place and they do the house chores as punishment. So Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and the others with their Pokémon partners accepted and did the chores in the house, when they got back to Professor Kukui's house. While they were doing the house chores, Basara Toujou asks Kizuna Hida if he can keep his transformation under control and keep it a secret. Kizuna Hida wasn't sure but he'll try his best to keep it.

Later then they were all finished with all the chores and then take a break. Then Professor Kukui told them that is it for dinner. Thus Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, Jin Mazama with his Lycanroc, Raku Ichijo with his Victreebel and Basara Toujou with his Lucario ate dinner. After they had eaten to their fill, Kizuna Hida and the others voluntarily clean up and wash the dishes. When they were finished with task, Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo, Basara Toujou and their Pokémon partners all came together and setting up their plans. During their planning Kizuna Hida asks Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo and Basara Toujou for any ideas.

As Kizuna Hida had requested, Jin Mazama suggested in his opinion. He said that they would do their usual planning as in they do their Pokémon training by studying on Pokémon by reading, practicing, or sparring moves until something happens. Kizuna Hida, Raku Ichijo and Basara Toujou both disagree with Jin Mazama of his suggestion. They say that it is too dull and boring. Next Raku Ichijo suggested his idea to them. He informs Professor Kukui that they will go on a journey to Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos and Galar Regions. But Kizuna Hida, Jin Mazama and Basara Toujou both disagree but kept it in mind. They said that they should take it easy since Kizuna Hida was still in progress.

Then Basara Toujou gave his idea to them. He suggested that they should go to Malie City on Ula'ula Island and that Kizuna Hida should challenge the Kantonian Gym leader there. Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead along with Jin Mazama and Raku Ichijo with their Pokemon Partners thought about it. Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead both agreed and Kizuna Hida finally decided to go with Basara Toujou's suggestion. After they had all agreed to it, Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo, Basara Toujou and their Pokemon partners all went to bed. But as they went to bed, both Kizuna Hida and with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead had shared another dream together.

In Kizuna Hida and with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead's dream, they encountered both Grabel and Zelshione. As Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead were both synchronized and prepared to fight them. Soon Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead felt a strange feeling that roused both of them up. Then Kizuna Hida was wearing some kind of outfit that has the features of a Kommo-o. It was like Kizuna Hida was wearing a Kommo-o Helm, Kommo-o Breastplate, Kommo-o Tassets, Kommo-o Greaves, Kommo-o Sollerets, Kommo-o Hand gloves and his Z-Hybrid Heart Power Gear Ring on his left arm wrist. But suddenly Kizuna Hida's Z-Hybrid Heart Power Gear Ring soon evolved and transformed into some kind of Z-Hybrid Power Gear Gauntlet. Later then some kind of gear belt strap around Kizuna Hida's waistline that was set with his Poké Balls and Kizuna Hida felt that he was equipped to be a true Pokémon Trainer.

As Kizuna Hida was all geared up with his suit uniform, his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead then was all gear equipped with Kizuna Hida's Hybrid Heart Gear Eros. When both Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead were equipped with their unique gear, they were ready to fight Grabel and Zelshione. But as soon Grabel and Zelshione geared up with their weapons, and then Aldia, Ragrus, Valdy and Quartum soon appeared and were equipped with weapons too. Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead with no hesitations to fight Grabel, Zelshione, Ragrus, Valdy and Quartum as then the background was playing Aiming to be a Pokémon Master – 2001. As the music continued playing, Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead used Pokémon moves.

As Kizuna Hida was standing in a safe distance but by his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead side. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead fighting against Ragrus, Valdy, Quartum, Aldia, Grabel and Zelshione he used Dragon Claw, Dragon Tail, Thunderbolt, and Clanging Scales etc. They took some damage but mostly Ragrus, Valdy, Quartum, Aldia, Grabel and Zelshione either deflect, dodge, counterattack etc. Then soon Kizuna Hida took out all of his other Pokémon out to battle as his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead was overwhelmed by Ragrus, Valdy, Quartum, Aldia, Grabel and Zelshione. Each of Kizuna Hida's Pokémon, his male Pikachu, his Drampa, his soon to be Lurantis and his soon to be Flygon etc fought them in different ways, as Kizuna Hida directed them. But then Kizuna Hida soon discerned that his Pokémon were getting overwhelmed by Ragrus, Valdy, Quartum, Aldia, Grabel and Zelshione. Kizuna Hida then recalls all of his Pokémon by returning them back to their Poké Balls.

As Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead were nearly outmatched. Ragrus, Valdy, Quartum, Aldia, Grabel and Zelshione surrounded them and Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead was exhausted and nearly collapsed. But as soon as Kizuna Hida empowered his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead with his bond with him. Somehow Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead had activated some kind of a weapon system. Simultaneously as Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead had activated it, Kizuna Hida was in some kind of bond sync with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead. Then with in his bond sync mode, Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead pulls up some kind of Scale Discs. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead then uses on them as he flicks directly at all the Quartum members that knock all of them down.

As Aldia uses her shield to block the Scale Discs, then Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead swapped over and pulls out some kind of Scale Disc Launcher. He launches a direct rapid Disc Scales at Aldia that assaulted her. With a quick response to Ragrus' incoming attack, Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead under their bond sync mode switches over and pulls up some kind of a Scale Spike-Knuckle. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead then punches off one of Ragrus's robotic arms and he smashes and trashes all over Ragrus's Hybrid Heart Gear.

While Kizuna Hida was shielding himself from the attacks from Valdy by his Life Saver. He was also in bond sync mode with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use his Scale Weapons. Kizuna Hida in his bond sync mode calls to his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead for help and then Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead switches and pulls out some kind of Scale Shield. He then swapped and pulled up some kind of a Scale Claw to defend Kizuna Hida and fight with Valdy. When Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead was fighting with Valdy with her weapon claws, his Scale Claws converted into some kind of Scale Knuckle-Spike Claws. Later Valdy's claws were busted and she was knocked down by Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead.

Just then as Elma, Lunora and Ramza the Quartum members emerged and reawakened from the Scale Disc assault leaving Clayda still unconscious. They charged directly at Kizuna Hida armed with their weapons. Kizuna Hida with his bond sync mode to his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead then switches over Scale weapon. Soon then the Scale Knuckle-Spike Claws weapon swapped over and Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead pulls up to some kind of Scale Crossbows gear that is mounted on both of his arms. He then directly fires rapid Scale Discs at them that cause Lunora to be knocked down. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead switches the Armed Scale Crossbows and pulls up some kind of double Scale Thompson Submachine Gun. He soon fires rapid Scale Bullets and that knocks Ramza down. Then Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead switches over his Scale weapon as he soon fights Elma.

As Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead switches the Scale weapon, the Scale Thompson Submachine Gun. He pulls out some kind of Scale Cannon Blaster and he fires on Ramza. But Ramza used her fire ability to burn all the incoming Scale Bullets to ashes. Kizuna Hida under the bonding sync mode with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead discerns that Ramza is a formidable opponent. With a limited amount of Scale ammunition, Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o then switches from firepower weapons to combat weapons. But after using Scale premodern combat weapons like, Scale Twin Swords, a Scale Hammer, a Scale Mace, a Scale Tomahawk, and even a Scale Whip to fight against Ramza. But Ramza incinerated all the Scale weapons including the Scale Discs.

Kizuna Hida and with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead were running out of ideas as Ramza conjured her fire abilities and her Hybrid Heart Gear Bael. Kizuna Hida had no choice but to switch his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead's weapon system to normal setting. His Kommo-o dubs Sorehead reverted back to the normal Hybrid Heart Gear Eros. As Ramza uses her Tomahawk that lights up with fire and charges directly at them. Kizuna Hida quickly thinks fast and tells his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Clanging Scales. The Clanging Scale did some recoil damage to Ramza and Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Thunderbolt on her. The Thunderbolt paralyzed Ramza that caused her to faint.

Soon then Zelshione and Grabel step forth to battle Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead. Zelshione uses her mind control to control Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead. Kizuna Hida was shocked that he had forgotten that Zelshione can use her mind control. Then he tries to get his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to calm down and to regain back his consciousness. As Kizuna Hida struggles with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead while he slashes at him. Soon then Kizuna Hida's Z-Crystal Kizmmounium Z started to brightly glow. Afterwards Kizuna Hida and with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead woke up from their dream as it was morning.

Jin Mazama with his Lycanroc, Raku Ichijo with his Victreebel and Basara Toujou with his Lucario were concerned for Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead. Kizuna Hida tells them that both he and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead were alright. Kizuna Hida enlightens and ensures his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead that it wasn't his fault for attacking him. He tells his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead that he was under Zelshione's mind control. Kizuna Hida encourages his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead that they will work hard to strengthen their bond together. With their bond strengthened they will withstand Zelshione and her mind control. But then Raku Ichijo informs them that they should be heading to Malie City on Ula'ula Island.

With no hesitation Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo, Basara Toujou and their Pokémon partners told Professor Kukui. They inform him that they will be heading out to Ula'ula Island. Soon they took a trip to Malie City on Ula'ula Island. When they had arrived at Malie City on Ula'ula Island, Kizuna Hida with Kommo-o dubs Sorehead were following Basara Toujou's directions. Soon then they encountered Charlie Charma, their tour guide who was in a ninja outfit. As Charlie guides them to the local Pokémon Center for Kizuna Hida to get changed into a more suitable outfit. But somehow Kizuna Hida had accidentally worn a Kommo-o outfit by mistake. As he was wearing the Kommo-o outfit, Kizuna Hida realized that the Kommo-o outfit was the exact one he was wearing in his dream.

Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo and Basara Toujou didn't mind at all and told him that they had accidentally changed into their Pokemon partner outfit before. Just then Jin Mazama and the others soon then change to their Pokemon partner outfits that they had kept. As soon as Charlie was about to guide them to Malie Garden, Basara Toujou requested Charlie to show them to the Kantonian Gym. Basara Toujou explains to Charlie that Kizuna Hida wanted to challenge the Gym Leader there and then Charlie led them to the Kantonian Gym. As they had arrived at the Kantonian Gym, Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo and Basara Toujou had been there before. They soon meet Shirataki, Darley and Farley, where they show Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o and the others with their Pokémon partners the games they had to pass through in order to battle the Kantonian Gym Lead at the top.

After passing through all the games and they had all arrived at the top floor, Kizuna Hida met Ryuki, the Kantonian Gym Leader. As soon as they had met each other, Ryuki was surprised to see that Kizuna Hida's Pokémon partner is a Kommo-o, which he explains to Kizuna Hida that he is a Dragon type expert. Then as they were about to begin the Pokémon battle, Ryuki prepared and warned Charlie, Shirataki, Darley and Farley to prepare for Kizuna Hida if he was going to unleash his Z-Move. Kizuna Hida was confused and Basara Toujou told him that he had a battle with Ryuki and he unleashed his Z-Move that nearly blew up the Kantonian Gym. Kizuna Hida assures Ryuki that he will try to not to destroy the Kantonian Gym.

Then as Ryuki was fine he made it a double Pokemon battle and he took out his Zweilous and his Druddigon. As Ryuki's Zweilious two heads instant fighting each other and Rykui playing very loudly with his microphone and air guitar that his Zweilous was swaying to the music. Kizuna Hida chose his Kommo-o and his Vibrava to battle Ryuki's Pokémon. When Charlie as the referee declares the Pokemon double battle to begin, Ryuki told his Zweilous to use Dragon Rush and his Druddigon to use Dragon Tail. Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Vibrava to dodge the attacks. He told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Dragon Claw and his Vibrava to use Dragon Breath. As Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead used Dragon Claw and his Vibrava used Dragon Breath, Ryuki told his Zweilous to use Dark Pulse and his Druddigon to use Dragon Claw. Ryuki's Zweilous used Dark Pulse that neutralized Kizuna Hida's Vibrava use of Dragon Breath and Ryuki's Druddigon used Dragon Claw clutches with Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead use of Dragon Claw.

Soon then Ryuki's Druddigon hurled Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead crashed onto Kizuna Hida's Vibrava. As soon as Kizuna Hida cries out to both of his Pokemon and checks on them with concern. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Vibrava soon gets back up. Then Kizuna Hida's Vibrava soon tackle Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and both Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Vibrava develop a grudge against each other. As Kizuna Hida calms both of them and tries to tell them to work together, Ryuki tells his Druddigon to use Outrage and his Zweilous to use Bite. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead was standing his ground while being pummeled by Ryuki's Druddigon Outrage and his Vibrava took a hit by Ryuki's Zweilous Bite.

As Kizuna Hida was frustrated that his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Vibrava were being attacked and couldn't cooperate with each other. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Vibrava still standing. Soon then as Ryuki told his Druddigon to use Dragon Pulse and his Zweilous to use Dragon Rush. Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Vibrava to dodge it. As Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead dodge but his Vibrava stumbles and is about to be attacked by Ryuki's Druddigon Dragon Pulse and his Zweilous Dragon Rush. As Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead temporarily watching as Kizuna Hida's Vibrava was going to be attacked by Dragon Pulse and Dragon Rush, he soon protected Kizuna Hida's Vibrava by shielding it. Then as Kizuna Hida's Vibrava saw Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead had protected it and then Ryuki told his Zweilous to use Dark Pulse. Kizuna Hida's Vibrava uses Dragon Breath against the Dark Pulse and Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Vibrava were willing to cooperate with each other.

Kizuna Hida relieved and told his Vibrava to use Dragon Breath around the battlefield, which surprised Ryuki and the others. Then as Kizuna Hida's Vibrava used Dragon Breath all around it created a dense fog. As Ryuki and his Pokémon were confused Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o to use Dragon Claw and then Dragon Tail on both Ryuki's Druddigon and his Zweilous. As both of Ryuki's Druddigon and Zweilous took a direct hit from Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dub Sorehead. Kizuna Hida then told his Vibrava to use Dragon Rush on both Ryuki's Zweilous and Druddigon. Soon then Kizuna Hida's Vibrava soon started to evolve while Kizuna Hida and the others watched as it happened.

Kizuna Hida's Vibrava evolved into a Flygon that he learned a new move, Sandstrom. But then Ryuki encouraged both of his Pokémon by singing very loudly and his Zweilous and Druddigon both struggled to get up. Soon then Ryuki's Zweilous then begins to evolve into a Hydreigon and it learns a new move, Crunch. As Ryuki told his newly evolved Hydreigon to use Crunch and his Druddigon to use Outrage, Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Clanging Scales and his newly evolved Flygon to use Dragon Rush. As Kizuna Hida somehow told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Flygon to combine their move together against Ryuki's newly evolved Hydreigon and his Druddigon. Ryuki's Druddigon knocked down Kizuna Hida's Flygon by its Outrage when Ryuki was clever enough to recognize Kizuna Hida's strategy. But Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead manages to defeat Ryuki's newly evolved Hydreigon as Kizuna Hida then tells him to use Thunderbolt and then Dragon Claw.

As soon as Kizuna Hida returns his newly evolved Flygon back to his Poke Ball and Ryuki recalls his newly evolved Hydreigon to it's Poke Ball. It was down to one Pokémon left on each side, Ryuki's Druddigon and Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead. Ryuki then told his Druddigon to use Dragon Pulse and Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Thunderbolt. As both moves were neutralized, Ryuki told his Druddigon to use Dragon Claw and Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Dragon Claw too. Ryuki's Druddigon and Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead both clash with each other with Dragon Claw and take recoil damages. As Ryuki's Druddigon struggles to get back up, Kizuna Hida encourages his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to stand up. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead soon was brightly glowing with Neon Blue color as Kizuna Hida strengthened him with his belief in him.

Soon then the color changes and then Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dub Sorehead unleashes his hidden move, Core Enforcer directly on Ryuki's Druddigon. As Ryuki Druddigon was still barely standing, soon then his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead then encourages Kizuna Hida. He tells him that he was ready to use their special Z-Move, as that happens Kizuna Hida tries to concentrate to get in sync with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead. Soon then Kizuna Hida somehow found a way to activate his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead by putting his Heart Hybrid Gear on him, that is by shouting out Sore. While Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead was equipped with his Heart Hybrid Gear Eros. Kizuna Hida's Z-Power Ring transformed into the Z-Hybrid Power Gear Gauntlet along with his Z-Crystal Kommonium Z into Kizmmounium Z. Soon then Kizuna Hida crosses his arms and he begins in sync with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead.

As he and his Kommo-o dub Sorehead doing their synchronized poses, they nearly perfect their secret handshake. It was fist bumps, high five and then they strike down their pose of the Z-Move. Once Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead's heart become one and the Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead was at full-force and surrounds himself with his Z-Power. Kizuna Hida then shouted out Calamitous Spirit Bolster and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead unleash his full-force Z-Move on Ryuki's Druddigon. The Z-Move directly fired and struck Rykui's Druddigon but it was so powerful that it blew a huge beam up onto the ceiling and blasted a large hole on the Kantonian Gym's rooftop. As the smoke cleared, Ruki, Charlie, Shirataki, Darley and Farley were all scorched. Soon Ryuki's Druddigon soon fainted and Charlie who was still scorched declared Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead the winners. Kizuna Hida happily embraces his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and thanking him for his amazing effort.

But then Kizuna Hida soon realized that he accidentally busted the Kantonian Gym's rooftop by making a large hole. He and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead apologies to Ryuki for busting the Kantonian Gym's rooftop. But on the contrary, Ryuki was absolutely impressed with Kizuna Hida and his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead's Z-Move and the battle helps his Zweilous evolve into a Hydreigon. So he awarded Kizuna Hida the Kantonian Gym Badge and Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo, Basara Toujou and their Pokémon partners volunteered to help out to fixing the Kantonian Gym's rooftop. So Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and the others help fix the Kantonian Gym's rooftop. After they had finished fixing it, they left the Kantonian Gym but Ryuki wanted for another Pokémon battle with Kizuna Hida the next time he came by the Kantonian Gym. As Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, Jin Mazama with his Lycanroc, Raku Ichijo with his Victreebel and Basara Toujou with his Lucario left the Kantonian Gym, Charlie escorted them to Malie Gardens.

But as they were about head over there with Charlie guiding them. Soon Kizuna Hida's Flygon popped out from his Poké ball and he headed over to Haina Desert. Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and the others with their Pokémon partners follow Kizuna Hida's Flygon to the Haina Desert. After they had arrived in the Haina Desert where Kizuna Hida caught Flygon when he was a Trapinch. They soon found out that Kizuna Hida's Flygon was trying to protect several wild Trapinch from a group of Sandiles, Krokoroks and a Krookodile who was the leader of them. Kizuna Hida and with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead stood by Kizuna Hida's Flygon side to fight off the Sandiles, Krokoroks and the lead Krookodile. But as soon as they were ready to fight, Kizuna Hida's Fomantis popped out of its Poké ball.

Kizuna Hida was surprised and asked about it. Soon then as Kizuna Hida was trying to understand his Fomantis to what it was to do. Kizuna Hida soon realized that his Fomantis wanted to join in the battle too. So Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, his Flygon and his Fomantis all battle the Sandiles, Krokoroks and the Krookodile leader. As that happens, the Krookodile leader told the Sandiles to use Dig and the Krokoroks to use Sandstrom to confuse Kizuna Hida and his Pokémon. As Kizuna Hida told his Pokémon to stay calm and try to sense them, the Sandiles and the Krokoroks attacked them with Bite and Mud-slap. As soon as Kizuna Hida was about to tell his Pokémon to counterattack them, the Sandiles and the Krokoroks soon disappear beneath the sand and behind the Sandstrom.

Kizuna Hida soon realized the Sandiles and Krokoroks strategy in the midst of the battle. Soon Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Clanging Scales, his Flygon to use Sandstrom and his Fomantis to use Leafage against the Sandstrom that Krokoroks made. As the Sandstorm was blown away revealing the Krokoroks and somehow the Sandiles were exposed. Then Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to use Dragon Claw, his Flygon to use Dragon Rush and his Fomantis to use Razor Leaf on all the Sandiles and the Krokoroks. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead use his Dragon Claw, Kizuna Hida's Flygon uses his Dragon Rush and Kizuna Hida's Fomantis uses its Razor Leaf directly hitting on all the Sandiles and Krokoroks. As all the Sandiles and Krokoroks were knocked down soon the Krookodile leader soon stepped forth to battle.

As Kizuna Hida and his Pokémon were ready to battle the Krookodile leader. Kizuna Hida's Fomantis informed Kizuna Hida that it wanted to be the one to challenge the Krookodile leader. So Kizuna Hida told his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead to return to him and he told his Flygon to guard the wild Trapinch. When Kizuna Hida with his Fomantis battles the Krookodile leader the Krookodile leader charges with Crunch. Kizuna Hida told his Fomantis to dodge and then used Leafage, which it did dodge the Krookodile's Crunch and it used Leafage. But the Krookodile leader soon uses Dig to escape the Leafage. As Kizuna Hida with his Fomantis wondered where the Krookodile leader would appear, the Krookodile popped out underneath Kizuna Hida's Fomantis and it used Shadow Claw.

As Kizuna Hida's Fomantis took damage from the Krookodile's Shadow Claw, Kizuna Hida checked to his Fomantis if it was alright. As it tries to get up, the Krookodile leader then charges and uses Throat Chop on it. Kizuna Hida was anxious about his Fomantis and attempted to return his Fomantis back to its Poké Ball. But his Fomantis informs Kizuna Hida that it can still go on as it struggles to get back up. As the Krookodile then used Dark Pulse and Kizuna Hida supported his Fomantis to give it's all. Kizuna Hida's Fomantis soon learn Solar Beam that neutralized the Dark Pulse and Kizuna Hida's Fomantis started to evolve. Kizuna Hida's Fomantis evolved into a Lurantis.

As Kizuna Hida was excited that his Fomantis evolved into Lurantis, he told his Lurantis to use Razor Leaf on the Krookodile leader. His Lurantis directly strikes at the Krookodile leader with Razor Leaf. Soon then as the Krookodile leader was about to use Slash, Kizuna Hida told his newly evolved Lurantis to use Leaf Blade. Both the Krookodile leader and Kizuna Hida's newly evolved Lurantis strike at each other at the same time and after a short pause, the Krookodile faints. Kizuna Hida soon embraced his newly evolved Lurantis as well as his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead did too after they had won. But then the Krookodile leader soon gets back up and then walks over towards Kizuna Hida and his Pokémon. Kizuna Hida and his Pokemon were prepared if the Krookodile leader wanted to fight. But instead the Krookodile leader was approving Kizuna Hida and his Pokémon for a good battle.

As the Krookodile leader, the Sandile and Krokorok apologies to the Trapinch and were about to leave. The Krookodile leader happens to be a Totem Pokemon and gave Kizuna Hida a Groundium Z-Crystal. Soon then Kizuna Hida checked on his Flygon and thought that his Flygon wanted to stay with the wild Trapinch in the Haina Desert. As he asked his Flygon if he wanted to stay in the Haina Desert. Kizuna Hida's Flygon thought about it with careful consideration and he decided to stay with Kizuna Hida instead. Although Kizuna Hida wanted the best for his Flygon, his Flygon insisted on staying with Kizuna Hida. Soon then Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his Lurantis assures him that his Flygon chose to stay with him.

So Kizuna Hida was relieved as he with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, his Flygon, his newly evolved Lurantis and the others went on their way. Soon then Kizuna Hida's Flygon notices a wild Sandile and he approaches Kizuna Hida. Kizuna Hida asks him what he wants, then soon Kizuna Hida realizes that Sandile wants to join with Kizuna Hida and his Pokémon team. Kizuna Hida asked Sandile if he wanted to be caught by him and his Pokémon encouraged him. As the Sandile agrees with him, Kizuna Hida was about to pick up one of his Poké balls but then Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu suddenly popped out from his Poké Ball. Kizuna Hida soon asks his male Pikachu with astonishment what he wants. Kizuna Hida was listening to his male Pikachu and he understood that his male Pikachu wanted to battle the wild Sandile. As soon as Kizuna Hida returns his Flygon and his newly evolved Lurantis back to their Poké balls. Then Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo, Basara Toujou and their Pokemon partners stand and watch as Kizuna Hida with his male Pikachu battles the wild Sandile.

Kizuna Hida with his male Pikachu challenges the wild Sandile. Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead standby beside Kizuna Hida and Jin Mazama, Raku Ichijo, Basara Toujou and their Pokemon partners stand and watch the battle. As the battle had begun, the wild Sandile strikes first with Bite and Kizuna Hida tells his male Pikachu to use Iron Tail to counter it. As the Sandile was blocked by Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu Iron Tail, he then used Dig. As Kizuna Hida with his male Pikachu were being aware of where the wild Sandile will appear. Just then the wild Sandile came underneath Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu and used Thrash.

Kizuna Hida checked his male Pikachu with concern, since his male Pikachu was hit by Thrash. As soon as his male Pikachu assures, Kizuna Hida told his Pikachu to use Volt Tackle. When Rotom dex was about to say that Volt Tackle doesn't do any effects to Sandile, Jin Mazama says that electric type moves do no damage to ground type Pokémon that interrupted Rotom dex. While Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu directly struck the wild Sandile with his Volt Tackle, the wild Sandile stood back up and he deliberately took the attack on purpose. Soon then the Sandile used Mud-Slap and Kizuna Hida told his male Pikachu to dodge it.

But as Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu manages to dodge the Mud-Slap. The wild Sandile then used Sand Attack on Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu that blinded both of his eyes. Then the wild Sandile used Dig and Kizuna Hida told his male Pikachu to stay calm under his blindness. As Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu was flustered and Kizuna Hida was irritated to where the Sandile might be. Soon after he was calm by his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead, Kizuna Hida suddenly got an idea. He told his male Pikachu to use his ears to locate where the wild Sandile might come. As soon as the wild Sandile was about to pop out underneath, Kizuna Hida told his male Pikachu to dodge barely.

But Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu was still blinded from the Sand Attack as the wild Sandile charged with Bite. Kizuna Hida told his male Pikachu to sense the Sandile and then used Iron Tail to swing around. With Kizuna Hida's guidance and swing his thunderbolt like tail while using Iron Tail. Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu manages to directly strike at the wild Sandile. As soon as Kizuna Hida's male Pikachu can see clearly with Kizuna Hida's Kommo-o dubs Sorehead dusting off the sand in his eye. Kizuna Hida and his male Pikachu prepare for their Z-Move as the Sandile seems weary.

Kizuna Hida places his Electrium Z onto his Z-Hybrid Power Gear Gauntlet and prepares with his male Pikachu for the Z-Move. As they were in total sync and their hearts connected Kizuna Hida with his male Pikachu and with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead for support. Together they use Gigavolt Havoc on the wild Sandile that causes him to nearly faint. Soon then Kizuna Hida took out one of his Poké balls and threw it at him. As the Poké ball draws the wild Sandile into it, Kizuna Hida, his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his male Pikachu both wait patiently for the Sandile to be caught. As the Poké ball was settled down and made a ding, Kizuna Hida with his Kommo-o dubs Sorehead and his male Pikachu cheered together.
