Chapter 1193

Sunset.

At the entrance of the karate dojo.

All Baimu turned around and thanked her with a smile: "Let's stop here, Gym Leader Bea, sorry for the trouble today, karate is very interesting."

Mawile beside him cupped its fists toward Grapploct, its demeanor full of respect, "Mawile!"

It just had a relatively proud personality, by no means a rude person who didn't understand etiquette, not to mention the other party taught it so hard.

"Grapploct!"

Grapploct smiled and returned the salute.

Seeing this, Ogerpon tried to imitate, but unfortunately, its hands were hidden in its clothes, making it difficult to perform such fine movements.

"Bonieo~"

The posture was slightly strange.

Grapploct didn't care, smiling and cupping its fists, "Grapploct~"

The three little ones were happy together, enough to show how pleasant this day of brief time together was.

It was so for the Pokémon, and so for the Trainer.

Bea had a bit of regret on her face, "Martial arts is not a one-day achievement, won't you consider it again?"

Her words were echoed by many children behind her.

"Yeah! Champion! Come for a few more days!"

"Champion brother~"

The childish voices echoed at the door.

During the lunch break, All Baimu had taken the initiative to answer their doubts about Pokémon training.

This made them extremely grateful and excited.

Personal guidance from a Champion, how many people could have such an honor?

It made Bea feel quite embarrassed; she clearly invited people over to play, but not only did she sponge off their popularity, she also let him help teach her students to train Pokémon.

What was even more embarrassing was that she and her Pokémon ate quite a few of All Baimu's snacks.

Including but not limited to Pokéblocks mixed with sweet secret seasonings, Poffins, cookies, and other products.

Bea was a fanatical fan of all kinds of sweets; whenever a competition ended or after training, she would comfort her body and mind by eating sugar.

You don't have to bring anything else when traveling, but sweets are a must.

In this regard, she was simply a carbon copy of Mawile, nicknamed the "Sweet Destroyer," but unfortunately, the two had no similar color schemes.

All Baimu shook his head and said: "At this stage, my focus must still be on chasing the World Coronation Series Master Ball Tier. And karate is your path, not mine."

Bea and her Fighting-type Pokémon practiced karate diligently every day, which could gradually improve their strength, but he couldn't.

There were very few Pokémon in his team suitable for martial arts.

How could he focus on that small portion of Pokémon? Pursuing the development of everyone was the path he should take.

"I see, it's just a pity."

Bea showed a look of relief, "If my father knew of your talent, the title of a genius rarely seen in a hundred years of karate would surely belong to you."

These words were by no means flattery.

She sparred with All Baimu for a total of ten rounds, only defeating the latter three times with profound karate skills, and the rest were all broken by his strength.

And during this period, Bea also realized that All Baimu didn't rely purely on brute force.

Kickboxing, grappling locks, and even some obscure boxing techniques seemed to have been dabbled in by the other party.

It's just that he wasn't particularly proficient.

Bea felt that if All Baimu was willing to formally apprentice in karate, he would definitely achieve great things!

"There will be plenty of time in the future, no need to rush."

All Baimu laughed.

These words made the Rotom Phone secretly slander that the Trainer was giving people empty checks again.

At the time of parting, he handed Bea a jar of Pokéblocks, "A souvenir for today's events, consider it a gift for today's visit, don't dislike it."

"How could I!"

Bea couldn't "decline," a faint smile appeared on her face, and she said: "Come often when you have time, usually as long as there are no competitions or special circumstances, I will basically stay in the dojo."

Amidst the children's reluctant expressions, All Baimu waved goodbye with the two little ones.

On the way back to the hotel, he asked Mawile for its thoughts.

"Mawile~"

The young lady said that karate was very interesting, especially the kicking techniques, which helped it improve its close-quarters combat ability.

All Baimu reached out to touch its head and said: "That's good."

"Mawile!"

Mawile smiled sweetly.

The young lady when outsiders weren't around was the most well-behaved, just like a large doll, letting him hug and kiss it.

The strong contrast made All Baimu still keen on being close to it to this day.

Of course, this didn't mean he was tired of other obedient Pokémon, it was just that Mawile's uniqueness made him feel very stimulated.

Hmm...

A bit perverted?

In short, All Baimu just really liked Mawile.

"Bonieo?"

"You touch too, you touch too." All Baimu quickly put his other hand on Ogerpon's head, using both hands skillfully.

——

The next day.

All Baimu arrived at the station.

Since Circhester had no airport or port, he had to return to Wyndon.

The Pokémon accompanying him today were Galarian Corsola and Ogerpon; the lazy Corsola was slightly dissatisfied with the Trainer's duty arrangement.

"Corsola..."

"Just a coincidence."

All Baimu looked around the station, seemingly looking for something.

Ogerpon looked up, "Bonieo?"

"That's right, I'm wondering if there's a chance to encounter it during the day." He nodded with a smile.

Having become a frequent visitor to the Spirit Realm, he was naturally very curious about the Ghost Train discovered by Dragapult.

Unfortunately, when he specifically went with Dragapult, Shiny Gengar, and others last night, the Spirit Train didn't appear, as if there were no shifts that night.

Damn socially anxious dragon! Eating alone!

In grief and indignation, All Baimu played with Dragapult fiercely, and on the second morning, sent out the lazy Corsola, who hadn't traveled together last night, to try its luck.

——This was a suggestion from the Rotom Phone.

It believed that as a reserve gatekeeper of the Spirit Realm, Corsola might have some connection to the Ghost Train that shuttles through the Spirit Realm.

Porygon2 made a bold hypothesis, All Baimu made a bold verification.

Following the station entrance downward, wandering around in the intricate tunnels, he soon found his target.

"Found it, entrance to Platform Zero."

Platform Zero is the departure point of the Ghost Train, and also the gap between reality and the Spirit Realm.

He waited with the socially anxious dragon and the others until nearly 1 AM last night, but didn't wait for a single Ghost Train to appear, so he had to go back to the hotel to sleep.

After opening the door, a surprise happened.

A high-speed train was parked quietly on the tracks, the interior lights were bright, and the doors were open, spraying air-conditioned cold air outward.

If not for the strange darkness all around and the blue sky above his head that didn't look like daytime at all, this Ghost Train was no different from an ordinary train in appearance.

"Bonieo~!"

"That's right, thanks to Corsola!"

All Baimu didn't attribute all this to luck, but decisively handed the credit to Corsola.

A little trick to stimulate its enthusiasm.

Although it was basically useless, the lazy Corsola's subjective initiative was low to an outrageous degree.

He approached the train while releasing the three Dreepy and the Shiny Gengar.

Surrounded by a group of ghosts, he felt full of security.

"You guys see where this train is going, don't get on it and end up in some unknown place."

All Baimu instructed.

The ghost Pokémon nodded and dispersed to collect information about this train.

He also started wandering around looking for the information board, never expecting that he didn't see the board, but saw a short-haired girl.

That's right.

Should be a human.

After careful identification, All Baimu confirmed this point.

And while he discovered the other party, the other party also seemed to sense it and looked over.

In an instant.

A pale round face with only three black holes entered All Baimu's eyes suddenly.

"Eek!!"

But the terrified sound came from the other party.

The slightly thin girl hurriedly got up, and a weak voice came from behind the mask, "Sp-spirit?"

"Human."

All Baimu answered naturally.

The girl stopped her hands in a defensive posture, and after careful identification, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Really a human... saw wrong... hmm? How could a human be here!"

She, or he, was still full of doubts.

"Don't you recognize me?"

All Baimu stepped forward and pointed at his own face, "It's understandable that ordinary people don't recognize me, but you are not an ordinary person, Mr. Allister, Gym Leader of the Circhester Stadium."

Without a doubt, this boy who looked like a girl in front of him was actually the second Gym Leader of the Circhester Stadium——

Allister, nicknamed 【Ghost Boy】, another example of GF drawing a girl and insisting it's a boy.

Allister was stunned, and after approaching to identify him, he breathed a sigh of relief, "So it's the Orre Champion."

He wasn't surprised that All Baimu was in Circhester; he had also watched the live broadcast of the match the day before yesterday.

"You're at the wrong platform, this train isn't going to Wyndon." He said weakly, his voice extremely low and appearing listless.

All Baimu said: "If it's not going to Wyndon, where is it going?"

"This..."

Allister didn't know how to explain.

At this time, Gengar and the three Dreepy flew over from various places, chattering to pass on the information they had collected.

Seeing this posture, and then looking at the Corsola on his shoulder, Allister widened his eyes suddenly, "Gatekeeper..."

"To be precise, a reserve."

All Baimu turned his head to answer, and smiled friendly: "I know this is a Ghost Train, I came specifically to take a look and experience it."

Such a bold statement made Allister stunned.

"But... the Ghost Train only carries ghost Pokémon and wandering souls... it's not very good for humans to go up..."

His voice was extremely light; it looked like he was persuading, but it actually had no persuasiveness at all.

All Baimu asked back: "But aren't you going up too?"

"I..."

Allister wanted to say that he was relatively special, but the Ghost Train issued a rapid bell sound at this time, followed by a voice broadcast.

The sound source was a deep male voice.

"Platform 0, the train to Wyndon is about to depart, please board in order, please do not crowd, please do not force boarding."

All Baimu looked at Allister, "Board?"

"..."

Allister naturally couldn't miss this train, so he had to enter with him.

The moment the two stepped in, the carriage lights flickered.

The eerie atmosphere was full.

All Baimu, however, had long been used to these situations, and explored the Ghost Train with several Pokémon quite curiously.

Allister followed silently; he was mainly worried that the Champion would encounter danger.

Even if the other party inexplicably had a sense of familiarity with this place that was more than his own.

Passing through several ordinary carriages, when an automatic door opened, a large group of Drifloon suddenly appeared.

They wrapped around All Baimu's arms without saying a word, trying to pull him up.

The Pokédex indicates that this is a creature that will abduct children and try to take them to another world.

It looks very scary, but the second half actually has a supplementary explanation——

"But they always end up being grabbed and swung around by them instead."

There is a kind of beauty in being countered by a brat.

"Gen~gar~"

Gengar suddenly opened its mouth wide, its blood-red tongue swinging everywhere, and a wave of energy poured out, scaring all the Drifloon entangling All Baimu to disperse quickly.

【Astonish】.

A ghost-type move with relatively low power, which has a miraculous effect against Pokémon far weaker than Gengar.

Allister wanted to speak but stopped, "..."

He had a shy personality, and seeing the Drifloon he usually got along with happily being misunderstood, he didn't dare to speak up casually.

Passing through the Drifloon carriage, then the Phantump carriage, the Litwick carriage...

Even Ninjask had a separate carriage, but All Baimu knew the real owner of the carriage was their "sibling" Shedinja.

After passing through seven or eight carriages where wild ghost Pokémon were located, All Baimu stopped suddenly.

This carriage was very quiet, quiet to the point that there were only "stones" all over the floor.

"Look, Corsola, you found your brothers and sisters!"

All Baimu said in a teasing tone.

Who knew that as soon as the words fell, countless scarlet rays of light lit up on the floor of the carriage.

Following that, the Corsola on his shoulder rolled down and collided gently with many Galarian Corsola.

All Baimu: "?"

Allister stepped forward and whispered in a moved tone: "So you came to find its family?"

All Baimu: "???"

Not buddy, he was joking!

"Bonieo?"

Ogerpon looked up at him worshipfully; it originally thought they came to play, but did they come to bring Corsola to recognize its relatives?

Gengar and the three Dreepy also exclaimed.

The Rotom Phone had slight doubts, but didn't dare to bring them up at this time.

All Baimu was sweating profusely.

He stepped forward quickly, scooped up his Corsola and whispered: "What's your situation? Didn't I find you in the sea!"

"..."

Corsola didn't answer, still staring at the other Galarian Corsola below.

After a long time, it spoke slowly.

"Corsola..."

Without needing the Rotom Phone to translate, All Baimu gradually learned the reason.

It turned out that compared to the lazy Corsola who didn't like to move, it had a group of friends and relatives who loved to take the Ghost Train.

Having no choice, it was coerced into moving around everywhere.

As a result, it didn't expect that when passing through Hulbury once, the train had a problem, and a Pokémon broke the carriage, causing it to fall out.

Then it traveled far away under the action of the waves.

Originally, being separated from relatives should have made it try to find its way back, but Corsola liked to be lazy, so it just drifted with the waves until a long time later when it was fished out from the seabed by All Baimu.

And its relatives, in order to find it, kept taking the Ghost Train to various parts of the world, but unfortunately, they found nothing until now.

All Baimu: "... There's such a thing!"

No wonder there was only one Galarian Corsola in the sea at that time, and there was nothing next to it.

So it was by coincidence that Corsola ended up there.

Now it actually led to Corsola reuniting with old friends because of his unintentional act.

Can his curiosity be considered to have done a good deed?

All Baimu put Corsola down and turned to look at the group of Pokémon who had heard the reason.

"This is indeed beyond my expectations."

He stated very honestly.

The Pokémon had no reaction, while Allister was a bit moved, "Th-this is fate, I think, as long as you have the heart, you will reunite sooner or later, the existence of the Ghost Train also has meaning."
