A/N: Sorry for the late update. I have posted 2 chapters today
------
After discussing, everyone agreed to use the strategy. Axel, Tory and Sam reached their base. Axel told their team about the changes that they would be facing. It could not be hidden. He wanted them to be mentally prepared for this tide.
Even though the odds were not in their favor, Axel had a gut feeling that they would win while saving enough lives for their troops.
The soldiers were disheartened. They were now fighting a losing battle. Soldiers have fought against such odds and won. However, their survival rates were very low.
"I know all of you are nervous and afraid of the news. You can get nervous and afraid as much as you want. We all are humans after all.
However, you are not allowed to be nervous and afraid when you wear those uniforms. That uniform represents your mark as a soldier. Citizens are assured by seeing those uniforms that you wear. So, how can you be afraid?
We have implemented a new strategy and all of you are familiar with it by now. We are also getting reinforcement from the near town. Though the reinforcement is not much, it is better than nothing. I am the leader and it is my responsibility to make sure that all of you live this tide.
You don't have to be afraid and nervous. You just have to follow my orders to 'T' and trust in me. That is all you have to do and I would assure you that you would live.
May Arceus be on our favor." Axel completed his speech.
"May Arcues be on our favor."
"May Arcues be on our favor."
"May Arcues be on our favor."
….
Everybody started to chant. This completely cemented Axel's position as a zone commander. When humans have lost all hope, if they get some hope, even though it was highly improbable, they would believe it. Their only choice right now was to trust Axel and carry out his orders. If they don't, there was no way they would survive.

After 5 days,
Only a day was left before the Pokemon tide. Axel had got accurate information about the Pokemon that they would be facing tomorrow. As per Axel's instruction, all of his Pokemon were resting for tomorrow.
"Remember it is a war, not a battle. Your stamina is important. Don't use overpowered moves at first. That would drain you from the beginning. Focus on your surrounding more. ….."
Axel reminded his Pokemons one more time before the tide. Ivysaur and Alakazam would return today. Axel was excited to see the improvements between Alakazam and Ivysaur.
Surprisingly, he could not see the current stats of Alakazam and Ivysaur. He knew that they had improved. Mew had assured that. So why was the status the same as before?
Were they in another dimension? Mew could do that. It was psychic Pokemon after all.
Axel could see that his Pokemons had improved. Their move mastery had not improved much but their stamina had. They had learned how to preserve their stamina to have a long battle. If Axel was given more time, he could have prepared them more.

Axel was in his office. He had a big office, with a sofa, tables, chairs, mirrors, and an attached bathroom. He was a zone commander of the north base. He was expected to have such a well-equipped room.
Axel suddenly felt something and realized that it was Mew, Alakazam and Ivysaur.
Ding!
The stats of Alakazam and Ivysaur has been updated. Please check their stats
Axel could feel that the temperament of both the Pokemons had changed. He was excited to see their stats but first, he had to deal with Mew.
"I have trained them as much as I could for the past 9 days. I have completed my task. Now it is your turn to give us unlimited food.", said Mew.
That was a good bargain for Axel. Food doesn't cost much to him. But having his Pokemon trained by a legendary Pokemon like Mew was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Can you tell me how you helped my friends?", asked Axel. He could see the changes with the system but he didn't want to miss anything.
"For Light, I just taught him what I know. I gave it an explanation and training in elemental manipulation and a bit about telekinesis. I also gave it a bracelet which would help it in comprehending the psychic powers
For Ivysaur, I gave him that locket. That locket would benefit it every time its rank increases till it reaches King-ranked. That locket is a treasure of Celebi."
They were simple sentences yet they carried a lot of weight. Mew was known as the queen/king of elemental manipulation. Though it trained Alakazam for only 9 days, it would be valuable for it.
Among both of them, Ivysaur had gained the most. Celebi was a mystical Pokemon. It was also known as 'Voice of the forest'. It was able to travel through time and plant life flourishes wherever it stays. With just its presence, an entire forest could be created. It also had the ability to heal wounds. Wasn't that what Ivysaur exactly needed?
Axel realized that Celebi might be the second Hasirama Senju. If Ivysaur could gain benefit from Celebi, it would be really good for it.
Axel looked at both of their stats. First, he looked at Alakazam's stats.
