Tyson released Abra from the Poké Ball and placed the ball gently in front of him.
"To stabilize your injury, I temporarily kept you in the Poké Ball. Now that you're healed, you're free to go," Tyson said softly. "As much as I'd like you to stay, the choice is yours."
He stepped back, giving Abra the space and time needed to decide.
After spending these past days together, Tyson had grown attached to the little Psychic-type. Despite the deep bond they had formed, he wanted to respect Abra's decision without any coercion or ulterior motives like trading Abra for resources.
Abra stared at the Poké Ball in front of him for a moment. Then, without hesitation, he reached out, touched the ball, and willingly returned himself to it.
For this human who had shown him warmth and kindness—a feeling that reminded him of home—Abra was willing to trust and forge a partnership.
The ball shook briefly before settling, signaling a successful capture.
"We're partners from now on," Tyson said with a warm smile, releasing Abra again. He extended his hand toward the little Pokémon. "Please take care of me."
Abra gave a small nod and placed his hand in Tyson's, sealing their bond.
Finally able to examine Abra's details systematically, Tyson opened the interface.
Pokémon: Abra
Gender: Male
Ability: Inner Focus
Strength: Competent Level
Basic Skill: Teleport
Taught Skills: None
Inherited Skills: Ally Switch, Skill Swap
Seeing the information, Tyson realized how Abra had survived for so long despite the harsh environment. His strong mental fortitude, derived from exceptional psychic abilities, allowed him to endure. This understanding deepened Tyson's affection for Abra.
"From now on, we're a team. We'll fight together, and I promise to never let anyone hurt you again," Tyson said firmly, gently patting Abra's head.
Abra smiled and nodded again, his determination to grow stronger evident in his eyes.
Preparing for the Final Hunt
With the joy of befriending Abra fueling his resolve, Tyson began preparing for the final hunt. His earlier tasks were now completed, and the team was in excellent condition.
Charmeleon had reached level 29, just one step away from the Advanced Level. However, Tyson chose not to rush his progression. Experience had taught him that breaking through too quickly could hinder a Pokémon's ability to adapt and control its newfound strength. Charmeleon was already strong enough to handle the upcoming challenges.
Eevee had reached level 23 and had recently learned Swift, a move that provided a reliable attack. Meanwhile, Charmeleon had trained diligently, upgrading all skills except Dragon Dive to Intermediate level. With the help of mission points, Flamethrower and Dragon Breath had reached advanced proficiency, greatly enhancing their effectiveness.
Eevee, too, had made strides, with all her skills at intermediate proficiency and both Helping Hand and Swift advanced. Though training proficiency beyond intermediate was challenging without prolonged effort or specific opportunities, Tyson was proud of their progress.
Despite completing numerous missions, Tyson had only 200 mission points remaining. These points had been crucial for the team's rapid growth, and the newly refreshed task list reflected their accomplishments:
Current Tasks
Charmeleon:
Reach Advanced Level: 300 points
Increase Strength by 5 Levels: 50 points
Increase Strength by 10 Levels: 200 points
Upgrade 5 Skills to Advanced Proficiency: 200 points (3/5 complete)
Upgrade 7 Skills to Advanced Proficiency: 300 points (5/7 complete)
Eevee:
Increase Strength by 5 Levels: Completed
Increase Strength by 10 Levels: Completed
Increase Strength by 12 Levels: 300 points (7/12 complete)
Upgrade 3 Skills to Advanced Proficiency: 100 points (2/3 complete)
Upgrade 5 Skills to Advanced Proficiency: 200 points (3/5 complete)
Abra:
Increase Strength by 5 Levels: 75 points
Having secured Abra as his third Pokémon, Tyson noted the two new tasks that appeared upon Abra's capture. One had already been completed, further proving the system's responsiveness.
After organizing his supplies, Tyson began his journey toward the stronghold, ignoring any wild Pokémon along the way. For now, completing Shadow's assigned tasks took precedence over earning mission points.
Laying a Trap
After navigating familiar paths, Tyson arrived near the forest surrounding the stronghold. Carefully scouting the area, he identified several locations suitable for ambushes and concealed himself nearby, waiting for unsuspecting prey.
It seemed others had similar plans. By the next day, a trainer named Hawke arrived, meticulously checking the area to avoid falling victim to an ambush.
Tyson signaled Eevee to act.
"Eevee, use Yawn!"
The drowsy waves enveloped Hawke but had little effect on his partner, an Infernape with the Ability Blaze. However, Tyson's true target was Hawke himself.
While Infernape growled defensively, Abra teleported Hawke to Tyson's location. Before Hawke could react, Tyson struck with a dagger, swiftly ending the encounter.
As Hawke collapsed, Infernape roared in fury, charging at Eevee. Charmeleon intercepted the attack with a well-timed Flamethrower, immobilizing the enraged Pokémon.
Tyson quickly retrieved Infernape's Poké Ball from Hawke's belongings, recalling the Pokémon and locking the ball.
Abra's inclusion in the team had significantly enhanced their ability to execute efficient hunts. However, Tyson knew that Hawke's body would leave evidence. After burning the remains, Tyson relocated to a new ambush site, prepared to continue his hunt.

Observing the familiar terrain around him, Nell couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension.
Though a few days remained until the trial's end, Nell wasn't planning to stay as a hunter. Instead, he aimed to find a secure hiding place where he could wait out the remainder of the trial.
When the event concluded, Nell intended to rush back to the stronghold and complete his mission promptly.
For Nell, survival took precedence overachieving a higher rank.
This cautious approach might seem cowardly to some, but Nell considered it a prudent and sensible decision.
As Nell ventured closer, a distinct smell wafted through the air—burning.
His sharp sense of smell, an innate gift, had proven invaluable on numerous occasions. The scent carried the unmistakable odor of charred meat, triggering an immediate sense of danger.
Without hesitation, Nell turned and fled. Misunderstanding or not, he refused to risk his life.
Sensing its trainer's unease, Parasect became equally vigilant.
But in the next instant, Nell's vision blurred, and the surrounding scene shifted.
A dagger gleaming with cold light appeared before him, moving too quickly to react.
First, there was a chilling sensation, followed by excruciating pain.
Strength drained from his body as Nell collapsed, blood pooling beneath him.
Nearby, Parasect was beset by Charmeleon and Eevee, both poised for battle.
The Charmeleon mastery of Flamethrower gave it a decisive edge, delivering devastating damage to the bug-type Pokémon, who was already at a disadvantage.
Unable to withstand the onslaught, Parasect collapsed, fainting from its injuries.
There was no need for Tyson to locate Parasect's Poké Ball; the battle was over in moments, and Parasect had been thoroughly defeated.
As always, Tyson ensured no trace remained by incinerating Nell's body.
For three days, Tyson had maintained control over this area. Including Nell, he had eliminated four Rocket members, accumulating 625 mission points in the process.
Despite his growing confidence, Tyson remained cautious.
As the trial progressed, competition intensified. Larger groups began to emerge, making solo ambush tactics less effective. Teleportation and Trick Room strategies would lose their potency against multiple opponents.
The true test of Tyson's skills was fast approaching.
As the hunt continued, Tyson scouted for a better vantage point but ultimately settled in a random location to wait for his next target.
In just two days, he had dispatched five more Rocket members, bringing his total to nine kills—one short of completing the mission assigned by the Shadow.
However, Tyson's worst-case scenario soon materialized: two Rocket members appeared together.
"It seems someone's been here before us," Barry said excitedly, noting the signs of battle in the forest.
"No surprise," Rey replied calmly. "We're not the only ones with this idea. This could work in our favor—if we find the hunter, we can claim all the badges they've collected. Easier than tracking them down one by one, wouldn't you say?"
Barry's crazed grin widened at the thought.
Unknown to Tyson, Barry and Rey were notorious among Rocket members for their strength and twisted personalities. Their reputation for violence and bloodlust preceded them, and their partnership had only magnified their infamy.
Their Pokémon shared their trainers' cruelty. Barry's Arbok, in particular, had developed a taste for human flesh under his care. At the sound of Barry's voice, Arbok hissed eagerly, anticipating its next meal.
But before Barry and Rey could act, they were caught off guard.
Eevee emerged from the treetops, unleashing a swift barrage of Swift stars aimed at the duo. Simultaneously, the Charmeleon leapt into action, releasing a powerful Flamethrower that engulfed their position.
Rey reacted first, using Barry as a shield to absorb the brunt of the attack.
"Charmeleon , Eevee—target the Arbok on the right! Use Flamethrower and Swift!" Tyson commanded.
Switching tactics, Tyson focused his efforts on Rey's Arbok. The coordinated assault overwhelmed the snake Pokémon, who collapsed under the combined firepower.
Meanwhile, Barry's Arbok turned its attention to Rey, enraged by the loss of its trainer.
"You stupid snake! It wasn't me—it was them!" Rey shouted, backing away in terror.
But the furious Arbok wasn't listening.
Tyson smirked. His plan had worked. By targeting Rey's Pokémon first, he had gambled on Barry's Arbok attacking Rey in retaliation.
"Eevee, use Helping Hand to boost the Charmeleon ! Follow up with Yawn on Arbok and any survivors!"
"Charmeleon, finish them with Flamethrower!"
Capitalizing on the chaos, Tyson launched another coordinated attack. The battlefield was set ablaze once more, and Tyson's Pokémon fought with unrelenting precision.
