According to the system, the Shadow Crystal granted power at a cost.
However, the cost was lower for Dark-types. Dark Pokémon were already "black-hearted," adapting better to darkness.
Huanhuan was Grass/Fighting (Hisuian form)... wait, the text says Grass/Dark (maybe a custom form or Li Yuan's modification? Or maybe the author meant Hisuian Lilligant is Fighting but he considers her Dark due to personality? Let's assume Grass/Dark for now as per text).
Correction: The text says "Grass+Dark dual type". Let's stick to that.
This item suited Huanhuan perfectly. "Blackening makes you three times stronger." Blackened Huanhuan shouldn't be weaker than Gardevoir.
As for losing control? Li Yuan wasn't worried.
First, Viridian Force affinity. Even blackened Pokémon gave face.
Second, Aura connected emotions. Hard to block completely.
Third, if she lost control, Lugia and Zapdos could suppress her.
So Li Yuan wanted to join the festival to show off Huanhuan's new hack.
"Where is the festival?" Li Yuan asked casually.
"Melemele Island," Lillie replied as an official.
"Okay. Accompany Hubby there?" Li Yuan fondled the beauty.
"Wherever Hubby goes, I go~," Lillie said dependently.
"Me too! I want to be with Hubby!" Mallow chimed in.
Reina hesitated, then shook her head: "I'll stay. Many tourists during the festival; the restaurant can't be abandoned."
"Let Tsareena stay and help Mom!" Mallow suggested, embarrassed about leaving her mom to work.
"That's good. It's an annual festival; go relax. Mom can handle the shop," Reina petted her daughter's head lovingly.
After serving a man naked together, their mother-daughter bond deepened.
Could it not?
Li Yuan made them spread legs and rub against each other's gates, having a mother-daughter lesbian encounter.
She still remembers the softness of her daughter's tongue. So depraved and forbidden~.
...
Later, the four humans and one Pokémon soaked in a bath. The Pokémon was Tsareena. To help with the shop, Li Yuan taught her Psychic.
With telekinesis, serving tea and cleaning were instant.
With no worries, Li Yuan hugged his wives and teleported to Melemele Island.
Melemele Island was bustling. The festival reached a critical stage.
While Li Yuan indulged in beauties, the tournament reached the Top 8.
Remaining teams: China, USA, Russia, Japan, and a combined Euro team (France/Germany/Italy/UK).
The strongest nations on Earth.
Especially China this year. Ridiculously strong.
They hadn't lost a single round. Crushing victories.
If they relied on Mega Evolution, fine. External power.
But they didn't use Mega Evolution. They used Super Blaze and Awakened Types.
Opponents tried to test their Awakened Types with their lives but failed. Matches ended too fast.
The festival was becoming a Chinese exhibition match. Western nations couldn't sit still.
So, in the Top 8, they played dirty.
China faced Japan (Neon). The Japanese team consisted of five sisters. The eldest, Juan (Xiao Juan), stood on stage against Misty.
Misty Mega Evolved her Gyarados, but still lost to the kimono-clad sister.
Yes, Mega Evolution lost. How strong was she?
Facing such a capable and beautiful sister, respect was due. But online, anger erupted against Juan.
Her Pokémon was clearly Elite-level. Juan was a college graduate, but Elite-level?
Fine, maybe the eldest sister was talented. But all five sisters had Elite-level Pokémon?
The youngest just started college. Elite-level? Feeding them steroids?
Cheating so blatantly?
If Misty lost, China would lose three in a row. How could Dawn, the last one, sweep five Elites?
The Alola Festival was a team elimination match. One Pokémon each, fight until one side is wiped out.
But wait, the Chinese team count was wrong.
They won so much people didn't notice, but one was missing.
Li Yuan, the National Champion. Where was he?
Don't tell me he's picking up girls during this critical match?
You picked up so many; still not enough? Can your body handle it?
Festival ranking affects Z-Crystal allocation. Each crystal is worth tens of millions. Can't lose!
"Misty, come down."
Just as Western netizens watched Japan's shameless cheating, a familiar boy's voice rang out.
The voice froze the stadium. The noisy audience quieted.
Anyone who studied the National Tournament knew this voice. The Great Demon King!
But the silence wasn't due to his aura. It was because of the person in his arms.
Did I see wrong?
Isn't that Lillie, daughter of Lusamine, the ruler of Alola?
You kidnapped the country's princess???
That's Lillie! Goddess of many hearts! How dare you!
Oh... he touched French Champion Diantha too. Never mind.
