Chapter 70: Legendary Dragon? Something is wrong with the appearance

Unova Region, north of Accumula Town, Pledge Forest.

This is a hidden small forest with a pond and a huge rock. Three unique Pokémon gathered here: one looks like a sheep, one looks like a cow, and one looks like a deer. They are the legendary Swords of Justice, Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion!

Cobalion, its appearance is similar to a sheep, four-legged, its body has sea-blue fur, has lightning-shaped yellow steel horns, the color of the nose is sky blue, and there is a cluster of white fur under the neck, looking very majestic. It is also the leader of the legendary Swords of Justice!

But the Swords of Justice have not always gathered together. Sometimes, they will stay in the Guidance Chamber, Trial Chamber, and Thoughtful Plains, and will also wander in various places in Unova, honing their move "Sacred Sword", and helping weak Pokémon in trouble.

And Pledge Forest is where the three of them gathered together and made a pledge to become the Three Musketeers. Today, they reunited here, exchanging what they saw and heard during their travels, and always paying attention to the relationship and trends between humans and Pokémon.

At this time, Cobalion is communicating with the other two swordsmen. Not long ago, it had a strange dream that made it very angry!

"You said the legendary dragon attacked you in the dream world?"

Virizion, a Grass-type swordsman who is all green and looks like a combination of an antelope and a deer, has an unbelievable expression on its face.

The legendary dragon is a Pokémon in the ancient stories of the Unova region, the dragon of truth and the dragon of ideals, which once built the Unova land but also destroyed the Unova land, like a god-like Pokémon.

The Swords of Justice have also lived for a long time, so they naturally know this legend.

"I am not sure that it is the legendary dragon... although it is indeed a dragon appearance and can use Dragon-type moves, it is also a Pokémon never seen in Unova. Next time I must make it look good." Cobalion was angry when thinking about the encounter that night. That giant dragon broke into its dream directly. At that time, it was practicing swords in the dream world, and the steel-type energy released between the two steel horns formed a sharp triangular sword, and that giant dragon stared at its steel horns, and its eyes began to shine, as if it had targeted a treasure!

"Undoubtedly, it used Fire-type and Dragon-type moves, which is very similar to the deeds of the legendary dragon of truth that burned the Unova land with flames... but its body has no white parts."

Cobalion recalled that night. That giant dragon with a mane and a crystal crown on its head first used Dragon Pulse and Dragon Tail to attack it, and then used Flamethrower and Sunny Day, as well as Fire Fang!

The opponent's Flamethrower was very powerful, not at the level of ordinary Pokémon at all. It experienced a fierce battle before driving it away, but the steel horn was also bitten off by the opponent. Fortunately, that was in a dream, otherwise, if its steel horn was broken, where would the face of the Swords of Justice go!

"Hahaha, the giant dragon in your description indeed has certain differences from the legendary dragon of Unova... or maybe the legend itself has been deformed?"

Terrakion, which looks like a cow, laughed loudly, and then asked: "Then, if that is really the legendary dragon, does it mean that the hero is about to appear?"

"The hero of truth and the hero of ideals? That's just a guy who reignited the war on the Unova land." Cobalion's anger obviously didn't disappear. Hearing the so-called hero's name made it even more angry: "Humans are neither good nor evil, they just use different ideas to attack things relative to them. So-called truth and ideals are such things."

Terrakion thought of something at this time: "I recently discovered some humans who are pursuing the Unova legend while practicing. They are dressed strangely, and have hidden activities near the Pokémon Alliance built by humans, and seem to be building something underground... Vaguely, I heard the saying of 'King' and 'Hero', and saw a green-haired man. It seems that that is the 'King' of those humans. This may also be the reason why the legendary dragon woke up in the dream? If it has appeared in the dream world, then it will not be too far from appearing in the real world."

"Since it is uncertain, why not ask that guy?" Virizion, who had been listening to the news, spoke at the right time: "That guy living in the Giant Chasm, it is also a giant dragon, it should know about the legendary dragon, right?"

In the process of the Swords of Justice's travel, they will inevitably encounter many unique Pokémon. In a remote location in the Unova region, there is a Giant Chasm. It is said that a meteorite fell here in ancient times, forming a huge cave. When the Swords of Justice were still young, they entered the cave and saw a Pokémon named Kyurem.

Later, they took challenging Kyurem as proof of becoming Swords of Justice. They gradually got to know the Ice Dragon, but Kyurem refused to talk about its own past, and its attitude towards the Swords of Justice, although recognized, was still a bit cold.

"That's right! Kyurem should know something. It is also a Pokémon that has lived for a long time and knows a lot about various ancient legends!"

"In order to deal with the Unova crisis that may appear, we must indeed borrow Kyurem's power!"

The Swords of Justice nodded to each other and disappeared from Pledge Forest, wanting to cross most of the Unova region to go to the Giant Chasm!

The northernmost part of the Unova region, underground of the Pokémon Alliance.

Even the Elite Four and the Champion, as well as all the staff of the Alliance, do not know that in this sacred and solemn huge mountain representing the highest glory of Trainers, there is another unknown and even larger building. It is a castle more magnificent than the Alliance building. The castle is magnificent inside, brilliant and gorgeous.

When other regions welcome the day, Unova has just entered the night. In the castle, a tall man is comforting a Zoroark. He wears a black-gray duckbill cap, has emerald green hair, wears a beige long shirt, hangs a star-like pendant on his chest, and hangs a Menger sponge-shaped door on his waist.

He is the King of Team Plasma on the surface, N. He is a person who is determined to change the world, give Pokémon friends freedom, and create a world that belongs only to Pokémon.

However, today he is conducting psychological counseling for his Pokémon.

Yesterday, his Zoroark had a strange dream, was attacked by a dragon Pokémon he had never seen before, and had the red mane he was proud of on his head torn off. The other party's power was surprisingly large, and he couldn't resist at all. He was being ravaged all the time. That was a thorough nightmare. Fortunately, he finally woke up, which avoided the fate of becoming bald!

And that strange giant dragon was spewing raging flames. Zoroark used illusion to replicate the appearance of "Walking Wake", thinking that this was the legendary dragon his master had been looking for.

However, N was a bit silent.

There is indeed a legendary dragon that will use flames to burn the earth. The legend of Unova is recorded like this. But will the legendary dragon break into the dreams of ordinary Pokémon without quality and tear off the other party's hair?

Is it a bit too un-divine? Even the Poochyena on the side of the road wouldn't do such a thing. This is not a Pokémon battle at all.

And the appearance and color matching are also different, which is too different from the legend, and does not meet his psychological expectations.

But N feels that the appearance of this dream must have its meaning. The Unova region will appear all kinds of strange dreams, which has been the case since ancient times. No one can explain why. More people treat these dreams as a kind of prophetic dream, although it is not very spiritual. Therefore, it is better to treat it as an ordinary nightmare and not think about those strange things.

However, this dream is extraordinary. N actually wanted Zoroark to try to dream of that giant dragon again, but Zoroark obviously developed psychological shadows—it doesn't plan to sleep tonight.

For N, Pokémon are his friends, so if friends are resistant to this matter, he naturally won't force friends to do things they don't like, and can only conduct some psychological counseling. And just at this time, members of Team Plasma in the castle shouted, saying "Ghetsis is back".

"Oh oh, N, I have good news to bring you."

"This time on the trip, I found like-minded people again. Now the idea of one king and seven sages has been basically realized. At the same time, I also found an item that can let you get the recognition of the legendary dragon. Soon that item will be sent to Unova."

"Next, I decided to conduct a tour speech in various parts of Unova, making more people realize the cruelty of Pokémon battles, letting them know that humans should not bind Pokémon because of their own desires...! We are getting closer and closer to our ideals. The era of disputes among all people will soon end, and Unova will enter a new era."

"However, it is a pity that there is not much news about the legendary dragon. I have also traveled through many ruins, but there have been no major discoveries."

"This sage is Ghetsis."

Ghetsis, with his pale green hair and magnificent cloak, paced over from the end of the castle's long corridor while introducing the other old man beside him—a like-minded sage he had met during this trip around the world.

"The Legendary Dragon." N's gaze flickered. He pondered briefly, then continued: "Regarding the Legendary Dragon, my Pokémon had a bizarre dream."

N told Ghetsis about the strange dream Zoroark had yesterday.

Upon hearing this, Ghetsis's expression changed slightly. However, when he heard about the giant dragon's terrible behavior, even a mastermind like him couldn't help but look like a confused person staring at a smartphone.

How could the Legendary Dragon act like that? Even if it had lost itself in a dream after sleeping for too long, it shouldn't be so undignified!

If one were to use something like this to promote a hero, everyone would probably burst into laughter, right?

Moreover, the color scheme was wrong. The Legendary Dragons of Unova should be one black and one white. Or perhaps, it had changed its appearance over the long passage of time? Or maybe the legendary records were distorted?

"... What a bizarre dream. So you think that thing is the Legendary Dragon? Although I feel something is off, if you think about it carefully, sometimes you cannot search strictly according to legendary records. We have investigated many legends so far, yet we still haven't been able to find the place where the Legendary Dragon sleeps. Perhaps the next investigation route needs some changes, and some things with peculiar shapes also need extra attention..."

"However, I did indeed find some strange records in some documents before." Ghetsis did not continue, because he had investigated those contents and found that some of them sounded like nonsense.

There were actually three Legendary Dragons? But the information on the third dragon was pitifully scarce, with only a few words in the documents, which could basically be ignored. Plus, Unova's legends basically revolved around the black and white dragons; perhaps the third dragon was actually an ancient Hydreigon.

But now, Ghetsis had an idea.

Could that giant dragon in the dream, which lacked all decorum, be the third dragon from the documents?

It seems I need to collect some relevant information!
