Chapter 1317

The infatuated Hisuian Alpha Goodra waits for its lover at the Coronet Highlands.

"What on earth did you do?"

Ingo's words left All Baimu speechless.

He said, "I didn't do anything; if anything, it's actually still pining for my Pokémon..."

There weren't even any heart-wrenching memories between them.

Is the power of love at first sight that great?

The facts were right in front of him, and it even spread from the Diamond Clan to the Pearl Clan, making Ingo come over to deliver the message; All Baimu couldn't help but believe it.

How should he handle it?

All Baimu subconsciously thought about the cold treatment.

For one, Hydreigon had no interest in the Hisuian Alpha Goodra; for another, what kind of thing is it to bring a Pokémon from the past to the future?

"Have you finished handling things on your end?"

He changed the subject.

Ingo replied, "The next Warden hasn't been selected yet; Irida was worried that you had already left, so she asked me to come find you first."

"So you're still planning to go back?"

"Of course, they trust me so much; I must definitely see things through to the end."

The Subway Boss had a strong sense of responsibility; after confirming that All Baimu would not leave on his own, he immediately prepared to return to the Alabaster Icelands.

All Baimu watched him leave and released Hydreigon to discuss the matter of the Hisuian Alpha Goodra.

"How do you want to handle it?"

"Hydrei?"

The dragon was full of question marks.

How would it know how to handle it? Could it be that if it said it liked it, the Trainer would bring it back?

Uh, that's actually possible.

Hydreigon quickly indicated that they should ignore that annoying guy and let it be sad; it's irrelevant!

All Baimu nodded, "That's true; if it liked me, I wouldn't mind—"

"Hydrei!"

Hydreigon was anxious.

It couldn't tolerate it liking it, and it couldn't tolerate it liking the Trainer even more!

There had been enough annoying pests brought back by the Trainer recently; it absolutely wouldn't allow one more!

All Baimu laughed out loud, "Alright, I got it—let time fade all of this away."

He called Akari to set off for the Obsidian Fieldlands to squat and wait for Mesprit, who didn't know where it had gone.

The result was very regrettable.

It was another day of futile effort.

"Master, does Mesprit really live here?" Akari couldn't help but ask, "Is it possible that it actually lives somewhere else?"

All Baimu: "... Hard to say."

If he hadn't captured Mesprit here in the game, he would have truly agreed with Akari's statement.

Since Mesprit couldn't be waited for, let's go see something else.

He decisively chose to give up.

The next day.

An unexpected visitor came to the door—

It was Adaman of the Diamond Clan; his expression carried a bit of annoyance, and he immediately pounced over after seeing All Baimu.

"I finally waited for you! All Baimu! Hurry up and think of a way!"

"... Don't tell me it has to do with Goodra."

"It's exactly that!"

Adaman kept complaining to All Baimu; this guy cried at the Moonview Arena all day, crying day and night, and the Warden Hisuian Electrode was tortured to the point of having no choice, having already self-destructed several times.

Melli couldn't handle it, so he came to find Adaman, but how could Adaman handle it?

In desperation, Adaman said a bit embarrassedly, "I brought it back."

"..."

All Baimu: "Can I hit you?"

Adaman closed his eyes and put on a posture of self-sacrifice, "If hitting me can make you help solve it, then hit me."

All Baimu decisively kicked him.

Bang!

Adaman flew backward five or six meters instantly, clutching his stomach and rolling around while baring his teeth, "What a—what a ruthless kick!"

"You're overthinking it; if I were truly ruthless, you wouldn't have just flown that distance."

All Baimu said irritably, and then looked around, "Where is Goodra?"

Adaman took a deep breath to relieve the pain in his abdomen and replied, "Outside the village; there are too many civilians in Jubilife Village, how could I dare to bring an uncontrolled Pokémon inside?"

"You actually thought it through."

All Baimu let Blissey stay to heal Adaman, while he himself went to the outside of the village with Hydreigon to find the Hisuian Alpha Goodra.

Not long after.

In the woods far away from Jubilife Village.

"Goo?"

A massive giant poked its head out from behind a big tree, and its eyes lit up immediately upon seeing them, running over wildly with a rumble, "Goo~~!"

Hydreigon protected the Trainer behind it for the first time, but soon realized that the other party was aiming for itself.

Bam!

After All Baimu dodged to the side, the two colliding giants immediately rolled backward.

"Hydrei!"

"Goo~~"

The roars and cooing sounds were endless, accompanied by the crunching sounds of branches and leaves being crushed.

All Baimu shook his head and said, "Get up quickly; I have some realistic things to tell you."

"Goo?"

The Hisuian Alpha Goodra was unexpectedly able to listen, but it still clung to Hydreigon and wouldn't let go.

All Baimu said to it, "We are not people of this world and will leave sooner or later, but we cannot take you with us."

Poryphone explained their origins and destination in a way that Pokémon could understand.

The Hisuian Alpha Goodra still looked like it was listening to a heavenly book.

"Goo..."

All Baimu had no choice but to summarize, "You two are destined to have no result, and Hydreigon doesn't like you either; do you understand? It! Does! Not! Like! You!"

He added emphasis to several words.

Thick water mist rose in the eyes of the Hisuian Alpha Goodra, "Goo~"

The next instant.

It began to wail loudly.

Although it is a Steel/Dragon-type Pokémon, its tears are truly abundant; at first, they gushed out like a fountain, and later they slowly began to flow like noodles.

What made All Baimu feel even more speechless was that this guy was crying with one eye while absorbing with its body, clearly indicating it could cry for a long time.

"What should we do now?"

He looked at Poryphone, and Poryphone looked at him as well; there was great confusion in its small eyes.

Hydreigon flapped its wings to disperse the mucus on its body and growled viciously, "Hydrei!"

Wouldn't it be fine to just finish it off!

"Goo?"

The wailing of the Hisuian Alpha Goodra stopped abruptly; it looked at Hydreigon, as if confirming whether it was serious.

When it discovered that Hydreigon truly had this intention...

It cried even louder!

"Goo!"

"Hydrei!"

The dragon was impatient and rushed toward it, while the Hisuian Alpha Goodra quickly tightened into its shell and continued to cry.

This angered Hydreigon, which opened its mouth to spray dragon fire.

All Baimu raised his hand and said harmoniously, "Don't, let it cry. It will know sooner or later that crying cannot solve the problem."

He lowered his head to look at the Hisuian Goodra, which was shrinking in its shell with only its head exposed, and said, "It doesn't matter if you want to keep clinging to Hydreigon. But as I said before, it doesn't like you; no matter how much you cry, there will be no result."

All Baimu's tone was gentle and firm, stemming from his Dragon Tamer talent derived from his bloodline, which made the Hisuian Goodra naturally have a basic trust in him.

Thus, it stopped crying.

"I am very happy that you can like my Hydreigon; it proves its charm. But it is a pity."

All Baimu placed his hand on its smooth and gradually softening metallic snail shell and said, "If you still don't intend to give up, then during the time we haven't left yet, you can stay here—"

He turned his head to look at Hydreigon and Poryphone.

Both clearly didn't quite agree, but they unconditionally obeyed the decision made by the Trainer.

"After we leave one day, you will naturally understand the truth that things cannot be done."

All Baimu withdrew his hand.

Hisuian Goodra has the special ability to adjust the softness and hardness of its snail shell, so it can also bounce around like a bouncy ball.

After saying what needed to be said.

He took Hydreigon and Poryphone and walked toward Jubilife Village.

The Hisuian Alpha Goodra looked at their backs and chased after them without hesitation.

If it were to give up easily, it wouldn't have pestered the Hisuian Electrode for so many days; don't underestimate the persistence of a yandere!

——

Adaman left happily.

Although he was kicked hard by All Baimu, he had at least solved a difficult problem.

When Akari came to the door and saw the newly appeared Hisuian Alpha Goodra, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master! Did you capture the Goodra near Lake Verity?"

"Not that one."

All Baimu said, "It came from the Coronet Highlands; I happened to meet it before, and it fell in love with Hydreigon at first sight."

"Eh~~ Pokémon love? That sounds so interesting!"

Akari wasn't very old, but her awareness of love had already begun to sprout; her eyes shone, "What about Hydreigon? How did it react?"

All Baimu laughed, "Disgust."

"... Ah?"

"You heard me right; Hydreigon doesn't like it, so it's just unrequited love, and unrequited love often doesn't have a good result."

He increased his volume to say it to the Hisuian Goodra, who pretended not to understand and continued to pester Hydreigon.

To say that Hydreigon had no reaction at all would definitely be a lie, but that little reaction only belonged to the physiological aspect; after all, it was almost an adult.

Therefore, for it, this was undoubtedly a test.

Whether its own will could defeat the flesh—the dragon felt that if it could survive this, it could gain further growth.

And then increase the odds of defeating Aggron.

Can it win?

It will win!

Hydreigon was like Tang Sanzang facing the Queen of Western Liang; no matter how the Hisuian Goodra showed its favor, it remained unmoved.

The second day.

All Baimu rode Miraidon toward the Crimson Mirelands, "I'll be back around noon to see the situation at Lake Valor."

Lake Valor, the habitat of Azelf; the thing it brings to people is called willpower.

Its own appearance also gives people a very serious and focused feeling.

Hydreigon couldn't accompany him; it was dissatisfied with the Hisuian Goodra to the extreme and directly started beating it up.

It wouldn't be stopped if it didn't use moves, so it chose to fight physically.

The Hisuian Goodra was also very decisive in shrinking into its shell, letting Hydreigon attack it, with a posture of "you can hit me as you please, I can take it."

Which made the other Pokémon left behind feel quite ashamed.

Akari successfully bought a Thunder Stone from the Ginkgo Guild, letting her Pikachu evolve into Raichu; at this moment, Aggron and Ogerpon helped with sparring to help it master its new form as soon as possible.

And her Cyndaquil, with the moves fed by Aggron and the others over the past two days, actually showed signs of evolution.

Poryphone believed this was a sign of a great teacher producing excellent students.

However.

Compared to Akari's good luck, All Baimu could be said to have had bad luck.

"Where on earth did these guys go?"

Like Lake Verity, there was no Azelf in Lake Valor either; he made a special trip to ask Hisuian Lilligant and Ursaluna, but gained nothing.

"Stuck?"

All Baimu returned to Jubilife Village suspiciously while riding Miraidon.

Seeing him, Akari asked diligently, "Master! Did you have any results?"

"No."

All Baimu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The Lake Guardians are nowhere to be found; it's truly baffling."

Akari then said, "Is there anything I can help you with? Please feel free to order me!"

"No need, you just need to be yourself."

He patted Akari's shoulder lightly.

Akari clearly had some complaints about this answer; she really wanted to help her Master do something.

Find the Plate?

She could find it too!

With Raichu in hand, Akari's confidence expanded unprecedentedly; recalling the knowledge she had learned from All Baimu these days, she believed that she could completely stand on her own.

No sooner said than done; that very day, she carried the bag All Baimu gave her and went to battle in the depths of the Obsidian Fieldlands.

Many places she usually didn't dare to go, she was determined to break into this time.

Such a bold behavior was naturally seen by All Baimu.

He let Poryphone split off a clone to follow, and not to expose its existence unless necessary.

"I hope that because of my superfluous actions, Dawn won't be deleted on the spot."

Fortunately, the Pokémon knowledge of the past few days hadn't been taught in vain; Akari was bold and careful, still diving into the grass when encountering dangerous Pokémon, and even letting her Pokémon ambush them.

Discovering an Alpha, she chose to be cunning and fight three against one; Raichu and Cyndaquil attacked, while she frantically threw various mud balls and smoke bombs to assist.

The three cooperated perfectly; Poryphone's clone projected remotely to the main body, and All Baimu almost wanted to applaud.

"Not bad, not bad, very amazing."

But what he didn't expect was that Akari actually encountered Professor Laventon on his way back during her exploration.

At the same time, Professor Laventon learned that All Baimu had been looking for the Plate for many days without success, and showed Akari something with a smile.

"Look! A Plate!"

He told Akari that this Plate was obtained from an Alpha Vespiquen.

At that time, Professor Laventon wanted to go to the Crimson Mirelands on the other side of the mountains and happened to break into its territory; he was discovered by the Alpha Vespiquen and was chased for several kilometers!

Thanks to his cleverness, he drove the tiger to swallow the wolf and led it to the territory of an Alpha Lopunny; after a great battle between the two sides, this thing happened to fall off the Alpha Vespiquen.

"Are there Plates on ordinary Pokémon too?"

Poryphone asked All Baimu.

All Baimu twitched the corner of his mouth, "Who knows."

He finally understood why Cogita asked him to wait in Jubilife Village; it turned out the next one was picked up by Professor Laventon!

All Baimu, full of anticipation, waited until late at night before Professor Laventon and Akari returned together.

"All Baimu! Look what I brought you!"

Professor Laventon handed the Plate to him like a treasure; looking at the color, it was clearly a Stone Plate!

All Baimu hugged him sincerely, "I'm extremely grateful!"

"You're too polite, you're too polite!"

Professor Laventon smiled, "I heard from Akari that you taught her a lot of important Pokémon knowledge; let this be the reward!"

Upon hearing this, All Baimu shook his head and said, "Akari and I have a different kind of bond, which cannot be measured by reward—Professor Laventon, if you have anything you need my help with, just order me!"

Professor Laventon was not polite either; he took out a sketchbook and said, "I recorded quite a lot of Pokémon ecology on this trip; please help me organize it."

"Okay!"

He agreed without hesitation.

Thus, for the next few days, All Baimu and Akari were both helping Professor Laventon organize his "Pokédex."

Sometimes when encountering obvious errors, All Baimu would inform Professor Laventon and make corrections.

And during this period, Ingo finally finished his affairs and came to Jubilife Village to wait for All Baimu to take him back to the future.

"Don't worry, we'll be able to go back soon!"

All Baimu said firmly.

He prepared to ask Cogita about the whereabouts of the next Plate tomorrow.

The next day.

The sky was bright.

Akari came to knock on the door as usual and greeted the Hisuian Goodra sleeping in its snail shell outside the door, "Good morning! Master~! Can I come in?"

There was no response for a long time.

"Master?"

Still no response.

The Hisuian Goodra pricked up its large ears and pulled open the door without a word, only to see an empty room.

The carbon deposits in the middle hadn't been cleaned up yet, and some of the cushions were also askew.

But All Baimu and his Pokémon, including everything that had been settled here, were all gone.

Akari was stunned, "Mas... ter?"
