Chapter 79 - Snowstorm

On getting the permission it started to eat the ice. Although it was only fist size it still took a few minutes for Swinub to eat

After he finished eating his body started to glow white and he roared at the sky suddenly a snow storm began.

The snow clouds covered the entire pallet town which wasn't much big only a few hundred metres in diameter and cold winds blew.

The wind started to speed up and snowfall started. Then the wind turned into storm and an ice storm was generated.

All the people were freezing in the storm and Daisy hugged her grandpa for warmth. Samuel who has travelled far and wide wasn't much affected and Alex who was near felt cold but his attention was on his Swinub who was in the centre.

Arcanine and Alakazam along with Charizard and Dragonite flew towards them just after the snowstorm started. Blue and Red too reached them.

As the snowstorm raged around the Swinub who created the storm was completely surrounded by it.

Blue and Red who came out asked," What happened? Why did the weather change so suddenly? Did Articuno arrive nearby?"

Professor comforted his granddaughter after Charizard raised the temperature around to a bearable level and not at all bothered by the storm

Samuel answered," It has nothing to do with Articuno or any other legendary. It is just that young Swinub is absorbing the millennium nevermelt ice and so he released the excess energy in the atmosphere.

After his body absorb the energy around it will also absorb the surrounding cold energy and calm the storm.

Till then we just have to wait. After all not many Swinub get to use such a treasure. Most of these are used on piloswine or other much powerful pokemons.

Their body absorb much power in a go and the surrounding isn't much influenced. "

Alex was worried about his glutton pokemon and asked professor," Will there be any problem with Swinub professor?"

He gave Alex a reassuring smile and said ," It won't affect Swinub adversely. the only thing I am worried is how much energy Swinub can absorb.

This gift was for the future. When Swinub evolves into piloswine then it can absorb the ice power more effectively and efficiently.

Since you had those Earth gem I thought it would be able to absorb more energy with Earth power countering the excess presence.

With their dual powers his ground and ice powers will increase exponentially.

Also with it gaining such powers now will help you later. You could say when it evolved into Mamoswine it won't lose to any of your older pokemons as they are now." He tried to calm the nerves by turning his attention to increase of powers of Swinub.

This also did the work. Alex wanted his pokemons to grow stronger. And since this method is effective he is Willing to use it.

Also Alex also thought of other treasure present in the nature which are useful to increase the powers if his pokemons.

He also remember some mention of objects such as fire fruit or thunder valley and poison flower in the mysterious book. Alex has hope to find these items earlier.

Some of these are even known by the league themselves but due to powerful tribes living around the areas which has these gems of nature, the league let them be for fear of angering other tribes too.

Now what they do is steal some from their origin and use them to increase league's power

Alex was given advanced trainer level facilities by the league and he found that I'd he did enough contribution to the league he may exchange it for a fire fruit.

This is his another reason for going to periphery of wilderness as the tasks there grant more points as well as for experience of death battles.

All the people looked at Swinub in the storm. The snowstorm started by Swinub raged fir almost half an hour without being affected.

The stronger pokemons in the lab provided protection to weaker ones after professor's instructions. Noone came to obstruct the development of Swinub

Soon in the centre of the storm a dazzling white light glowed and this white light was absorbing the storm in itself.

Soon the snowfall lessened and Alex saw white energy from the sky or perhaps in the snowstorm and brown energy from the Earth entered Swinub.

Swinub which continued to glow for a few minutes shouted once and the intensity of light increased.

Under the influence of nevermelt ice it evolved into a piloswine.

Piloswine is a big, brown, furry Pokémon with an impressive hump on its back. It also has two tusks made of ice, which seem small but can be lethal. These tusks thicken when it snows, and they are smaller on a female Piloswine than on a male. It has floppy ears that are s_e_n_s_i_t_i_v_e to sound. Piloswine has two beady eyes in its head; however, these are usually covered up by tufts of fur.

Alex also used his new Pokedex to scan his newly evolved pokemon.

He raised the Pokedex and allowed it's back camera to scan it.

Suddenly a voice rang, " It is a piloswine, a ground and ice type pokemons. it is the evolved form of Swinub. Whenever it charges at an enemy the hair at the back gets stand up. It is s_e_n_s_i_t_i_v_e to sound "

Piloswine who just evolved after absorbing power from the storm and subsiding it, roared loudly.

This time he used his own powers to start a storm. Although this time he storm didn't cover the entire pallet town, it still covered entire Oak laboratory.

This showed just how much it's power increased after all before he could only cover a battle field with snowstorm.

How will this piloswine act infront of Alex? Will it's evolution change the characters and behavior of piloswine ? Stay tuned
