What was the result?

All Baimu stared at the smoke rising to the sky, with the Dynamax Regigigas looming within it.

"Hum-hum-hum..."

The strange long hum went from high to low, until there was no sound at all.

Calyrex flashed, the blue light in its eyes still not stopping, and said confidently: 'The enemy leader, I have taken it!'

To prevent the Giant King from continuing to obtain energy from the earth, it could be said that it didn't dare to be negligent for a moment.

If it still couldn't win like this, then Calyrex was truly at its wit's end.

Hard work pays off.

When the smoke was swept away by an invisible pair of hands, under the gaze of everyone, the Giant King, which had relied on the massive mountains, turned into dots of starlight and dissipated between heaven and earth.

At the same time, the purple-red clouds symbolizing Dynamax in the sky also dissipated.

Was the incident over?

Just when everyone thought the dust had settled, the messy earth suddenly began to vibrate, causing the air to tremble together, emitting a low hum like crying.

The snowy plains seemed to be crying for the passing of Regigigas.

Leon and Charizard arrived late; they flew to All Baimu's side and asked in a deep voice: "All Baimu! What happened?"

"Unfortunately, I'm not particularly clear either."

He told the truth: "I came over halfway through, saw Calyrex and Regigigas fighting, and participated."

Leon: "..."

Your Pokémon fought with other Pokémon, and you say you're not clear?

Alright.

This situation might really happen.

Leon hadn't raised Legendary Pokémon, but his intuition told him that such existences weren't as easy to get along with as ordinary Pokémon.

The wailing continued, and the snowy plains became a bit eerie.

Calyrex glanced at All Baimu, left Spectrier, and disappeared from the spot alone, leaving Zacian and Zamazenta stunned.

"Woo?"

Did they stand on the wrong side?

No way!

As heroes who had once solved 【The Darkest Day】, they subconsciously opposed Dynamax Pokémon.

Coupled with the fact that Calyrex had once solved the resurrected Eternatus, this made the two choose to stand in Calyrex's camp, but it seemed it was the source of the snowy plains' disturbance?

And All Baimu was interrupted by Leon and didn't have time to ask for the reason, let alone know where it went, so he had to find Spectrier.

"What's your situation?"

"Hee~~"

Spectrier looked toward the direction of the Crown Shrine and neighed in a low voice.

It stated Calyrex's destination.

The three legendary titans flew over, ignored Leon who was present, and just handed five Poké Balls to All Baimu.

Three were their own, and two contained the Electric and Dragon titans.

All Baimu took them, vaguely guessing the method they used to reach the snowy plains, "Who helped you guys do this? Meowth?"

"Doo-doo-doo-doo—leh~gee~loh~"

Regirock gave an affirmative answer.

Alolan Meowth remotely contacted the Pokémon Center in Freezington and teleported the titans here through Poké Balls.

Undoubtedly, its talent was no less than Team Rocket's Meowth.

But because it didn't force itself to speak human language, it wouldn't have any impact on its potential.

However, does Meowth learning human language really affect its potential?

You have to know that a Team Rocket from a parallel world once appeared during the journey, and that Meowth could even compete with Cynthia's Pokémon for a short time.

All Baimu didn't need to ask; Regirock took the initiative to state the reason for coming here—

The frenzied Regieleki and Regidrago.

Their state after being dominated wasn't quite right, and the three legendary titans believed that a fake had borrowed Regigigas's power.

So they specially rushed to the snowy plains to participate in the battle.

Once they saw the Dynamax Giant King, they immediately confirmed this thought.

"That's not right, didn't I also rely on you guys to summon Regigigas here last time?" All Baimu raised an objection.

Leon couldn't help but look sideways; you did that last time too?

The Galar League hadn't developed the Crown Tundra much, but that didn't mean they didn't have eyes.

When Regigigas appeared last time, it had already caused a stir within the League, and they even sent specialists to investigate.

Unfortunately, they found nothing.

Regice indicated—

What was summoned last time was the will of Regigigas remaining in this land.

This time, another will used its power.

"Whose will?"

"Dee-dee-dee..."

"The snowy plains!?"

This was the third time in the past year that someone had told him that nature was alive.

But why did Calyrex want to fight the snowy plains?

While speaking, the three legendary birds and the twin wolves in the distance looked toward the location of the Crown Shrine.

Above the ice-covered mountains, a tree that looked like a withered husk suddenly made a harsh creaking sound.

Following that, its branches seemed to come alive, constantly extending in all directions, and its root system destroyed the ground of the ancient ruins and pushed down the walls.

During this process, the giant tree continuously shed its gray-white bark and grew a new "coat."

"Hee!"

Spectrier and Glastrier disappeared from the spot, and the three legendary birds also flew toward the Crown Shrine.

It wasn't just them that were acting; there were also many wild Pokémon living on this land.

These black dots far from the battlefield rushed toward the Crown Shrine one after another, forming a terrifying beast tide!

The helicopters of the TV stations hesitated whether to follow.

The danger just now was still fresh in their minds.

Just as All Baimu was hesitating whether to go over, Calyrex's voice rang in his ears.

'Come.'

At the moment, Hydreigon flew toward the Crown Tundra at high speed.

It had clearly heard Calyrex's voice, as had All Baimu's other Pokémon.

Mega Steelix and Miraidon took the initiative to take on the responsibility of transportation, carrying the Pokémon that couldn't fly to the Crown Shrine.

"What on earth..."

Leon was still confused.

But as the Champion of Galar and the League Chairman, he couldn't turn a blind eye to the situation here.

"Charizard! Follow them!"

"Roar!"

Charizard flapped its wings and flew quickly.

Before long, All Baimu successfully arrived above the Crown Tundra, and was shocked to see the ruined shrine and the thriving giant tree.

Calyrex was hovering at the top of the giant tree, its eyes closed.

He could feel an inseparable connection between the two.

'All Baimu, today's matter is my own arbitrary decision; I hope you will not blame me.'

"What happened?"

'Ten thousand years ago, the giant tree was lush, just like the tree in the south. Ten thousand years later, the giant tree fell into slumber, and the north was eroded by ten thousand years of ice and snow.'

Once upon a time, the northern part of the Crown Tundra didn't have snow in the summer.

Since it was sealed, the giant tree of the shrine gradually withered and fell into a long slumber, which caused the snowy plains to be covered in ice and snow all year round.

Strictly speaking, the giant tree in the south was a descendant of the giant tree, but it was too young to protect the entire snowy plains, which was why the difference between the north and south was so obvious.

Calyrex had only intended to take a look when it returned to the Crown Tundra this time.

But the war between wild Pokémon inexplicably reminded it of ten thousand years ago, the appearance of countless living beings struggling to survive.

And the will of the Dragon Village mentioned by Hydreigon, and its status as the Dragon King, prompted it to have a thought—

Reawaken the great tree!

Just like transforming the Orre region, transform the snowy plains!

In the end, this was its hometown, the place where it was born and lived.

How could it not care at all?

And the Dynamax Regigigas just now wasn't the true Giant King; the Giant King's consciousness had fallen into a deeper slumber long ago because of the three legendary titans.

What borrowed its power was the chaotic consciousness gathered by countless living beings in the snowy plains over ten thousand years.

To some extent, it represented the nature of the snowy plains.

It refused Calyrex's awakening of the giant tree and the changing of the snowy plains' natural environment, so it acted decisively.

Articuno, this second-rate bird, couldn't understand such complex things, so it simply classified it as a dispute between kings.

After all, that's how it and the other two birds did things.

The one who laughed last occupied the top of the giant tree, while Galarian Zapdos and Galarian Moltres lived elsewhere.

Now, the giant tree was awakened, and the snowy plains would usher in a huge transformation!

Calyrex called All Baimu here to give him and his Pokémon a gift.

Hum!

He saw the giant tree in the sky bloom with light, countless green buds growing on the branches, forming dense shade, and then blooming and scattering a large amount of pollen at a very fast speed!

Whoosh—

All Baimu rubbed his nose and was about to sneeze, but a force inexplicably surged in his body.

On the distant horizon, Leon and Charizard, who arrived late, were also submerged by the pollen.

"Roar?"

Charizard made a puzzled sound.

It had practiced Dragon Claw too many times recently, and its elbows were a bit sore, but after inhaling the pollen, the hidden injuries seemed to have healed?

Leon touched his face and found that the pimples he had grown two days ago were gone.

Such miraculous scenes happened all over the snowy plains: Freezington, Frostpoint Field, Giant's Bed, and Ball Lake.

Wherever the wind could carry the pollen, the compassionate Calyrex healed all the injuries of the living beings.

The wild Pokémon that came to make a pilgrimage stood there, admiring the wind between heaven and earth.

In Freezington, the elderly village chief ran into his house tremblingly, found a dilapidated ancient book in a corner, and opened it carefully.

'Under the guidance of the King of Mercy and the King of Abundance, we have no illness, no hunger, and no disaster; this is a gift bestowed upon us by the gods, the right to exist leisurely under the giant tree and the King's protection...'

The next page.

Or rather, after many torn pages, the stable, neat ancient characters became distorted.

'The world brought down wrath upon the sinners, punishing all those who were guilty, all those who turned a blind eye; our end has come. All of this is to be blamed on greed...'

'The clan is withering day by day; some clansmen decided to go north to seek a way to survive, hoping to find a glimmer of hope in more distant mountains. I decided to stay here and pray for the giant tree to revive...'

After that, it was no longer clear.

The Freezington village chief looked out the window at the giant tree exuding vitality, the great giant tree whose pollen dispelled the strong wind and melted the ice and snow.

"The tree is alive!"

He was very excited; facing his grandson who ran into the house, he grabbed the other's shoulders and said: "Go! Let's set off to the shrine with Grandpa!"

"What?"

The grandson was stunned; he had come back to get the camera, preparing to film clearer footage to post on Poké-Sound to earn clicks.

But the Freezington village chief didn't give him any chance to argue, pulled him to the warehouse, took out a nearly rotten cart from inside, and said, "Load things!"

The grandson was numb, "Load what?"

"Load all the good things in the house!" the village chief said without hesitation.

This scene happened in several households in Freezington.

They were all descendants of humans who had once been protected by Calyrex; facing the rejuvenated giant tree and the few words left by their ancestors, they chose to do so without any hesitation!

To the humans of the Pokémon world, these things were not only the heritage they were proud of, but also the sincerity of keeping promises!

And when the villagers in Freezington formed a team and set off in a mighty force.

The Crown Shrine.

No.

There was no shrine here anymore.

The giant tree, which had expanded a hundredfold, replaced everything, and the flowers all over the tree began to wither, gathering into one fruit after another.

'Catch them!'

Calyrex issued a reminder.

The next moment, the fruits burst suddenly, and one after another, long-haired black dots similar to dandelion seeds flew into the sky!

"Gengar!"

The Shiny Gengar was the most sensitive, pulling open its big belly and flying around, frantically loading these seeds.

The other Pokémon weren't slow either; whether biting, grabbing, or manipulating psychic power, they took as much as they could.

The three legendary birds were also grabbing them; they seemed to know what these things were and were swallowing them one after another.

Among them, the fiercer Galarian Moltres went to compete with All Baimu's Pokémon, while Galarian Zapdos decisively stayed away.

It stubbornly believed that none of these guys were good.

And those that slipped through the net were naturally enjoyed by the wild Pokémon further away.

Zacian and Zamazenta didn't grab them, just licked a few that stuck to their bodies, showing surprised expressions.

Leon arrived late again, holding two seeds in his hand.

"All Baimu—"

Just as he approached, he saw All Baimu running around with a net, doing his best to collect the seeds.

Were these something good?

Leon looked down, remembered the pollen that had made his pimples disappear just now, and kept the seeds properly.

He prepared to hand them over to the researchers in the League, saying that perhaps they could make medicine that would benefit all mankind.

This "carnival" lasted for nearly half an hour.

The giant tree didn't have any more changes, and Calyrex slowly opened its eyes, sighing: 'Times have changed.'

"What's wrong? Different from before?"

All Baimu, who was frantically stuffing a large bag of things into Gengar's stomach, asked.

Calyrex nodded: 'The snowy plains... are richer than in the past.'

The giant tree of the past couldn't grow to this scale, otherwise the shrine would only be bigger.

Under the white snow, there were nutrients accumulated for nearly ten thousand years.

It allowed the giant tree to directly break through the limits of the past.

At the same time, it also brought it unprecedented feedback; if it had known this, it might not even have needed to seek its beloved horse, just awakening the giant tree would have been enough to restore its power, right?

... Hard to say.

When it first awakened, it was extremely wary of humans; how could it dare to make such a flamboyant move.

It didn't want to be sealed again.

Daring to do so now was the confidence All Baimu brought it.

"This should be a good thing, right?"

'Indeed.'

With the help of the giant tree, Calyrex's vision could easily see the entire snowy plains.

It said proudly: 'At this time and in this place, I am invincible!'

This was by no means bragging, but a fact.

While speaking, it manipulated the local three legendary titans scattered across the snowy plains and sent them back to the shrine that sealed them.

Of course.

It just sent them back, without sealing them a second time.

Calyrex was the King of Mercy; how could it do such a cruel thing?
