・Appears when its bond with its trainer (Satoshi) reaches its limit. This phenomenon is called the "Bond Phenomenon".
# A name blurted out by a Pokémon professor (not limited here) who witnessed it. The "Bond Phenomenon" is used to sum up the "miraculous phenomenon caused by the bond between a person and a Pokémon".
・It is said that a similar phenomenon occurred once several hundred years ago. It remains only as a legend among people living in a certain area of the Kalos region. It is completely unknown to the rest of the population. It happened so long ago that no documents remain, so the truth of the matter is unknown.
・Similar to Mega Evolution, the hidden energy inside its body explodes, causing its form to instantly change (as if evolved), and it displays higher abilities than usual. In particular, its leg strength is strengthened, and its explosive power improves by several levels. It moves so fast that it is difficult to catch its figure, and takes down its opponents in the blink of an eye.
・What is different from Mega Evolution is that the techniques it has learned are dramatically powered up. New glands that secrete a gel-like mucus are formed on its back, and giant water shuriken are generated. It quickly fires giant water shuriken in succession.
●Conditions for the Bond Phenomenon
・It is activated when the bond with its trainer (Satoshi) is maximized during a battle.
※The game specifications may be adjusted.
・When the battle ends and its tension drops, it returns to its original form. Also, if something triggers its bond with its trainer to weaken (its mood), it will return to its original form.
●Power-up of "Mizu Shuriken"
・It becomes a technique to throw a giant water shuriken from its back. The name of the technique will remain the same, but the motion and effect (attack power) of the technique will change.
*Practical uses, such as holding a water shuriken in your hand and slashing, will be left to the anime's imagination.
