Chapter 489: Lysandre
Finally.
Lysandre still found the whereabouts of the Legendary Megalith with his technology.
"The location is in the offshore waters of Rustboro City. The fluctuation is weak but successfully detected." He said this, his gaze flashed between All Baimu and Steven, and he said in a deep voice: "The fluctuation matches the fluctuation and waveform collected from the Megalith."
Getting this news made many people present feel happy from the bottom of their hearts, except for All Baimu who was happy on the surface and Mairin who had a worried look.
This little girl had seen the scene just now and deeply realized the danger of pursuing the Legendary Megalith.
Between ultra-ancient Pokémon, just the aftermath of the moves was enough to make everyone hold their heads and flee. Even Alain, whom she thought was strong, and Champion Steven could only passively resist.
Therefore, she was extremely worried about Alain, who was wholeheartedly helping Lysandre.
It was just that Mairin also understood that her words carried little weight. Even if she said something, no one would adopt her opinion, so after looking at Chespin, who was also worried, she decided to stay by Alain's side.
Everyone prepared to set off for Rustboro City.
During this period.
Lysandre specifically called Alain over for a private chat. All Baimu didn't care; he knew this lion-head wanted the latter to follow Steven, who possessed profound knowledge... now he probably had to add him.
Outside the ruin.
Steven turned sideways and asked in a low voice: "Does the Draconid people really want to recover the Legendary Megalith?"
He had asked the elder of Meteor Village, and the other party clearly indicated that they didn't mind him pursuing it and provided clues. Now that it was finally found, they came to recover it... it was a bit of a hooligan move, but he really couldn't say anything.
"Speaking of reason, it's not a problem of the Draconid people now. The main problem is that the Shiny Rayquaza is also interested in the Legendary Megalith. If it gets snatched by it, are you asking me to pull the Legendary Megalith out of its mouth?"
All Baimu shook his head rapidly and whispered: "I really have no way to interfere with the Shiny Rayquaza's intention. Steven-san, you have to believe me!"
So Steven believed him, and then looked at the two Rayquaza that were nowhere to be seen above the firmament with a headache.
He himself trusted All Baimu extremely, and after the incident of borrowing the ancestral home, the relationship between the two rose straight up. He, who never treated people based on social status, had already regarded him as one of the few good friends.
Facing such a chaotic current situation.
Steven, a stone collector who had always been pursuing the Legendary Megalith, felt for the first time that this thing was a hot potato.
——He believed that when he saw Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre also running over to grab the Legendary Megalith, his mood would not be beautiful again.
"Looking at it this way..."
"It's inevitable that we will meet them in Rustboro City."
All Baimu took his words, and also expressed that he didn't plan to leave with them for the time being, waiting in place for the Shiny Rayquaza.
If the Shiny Rayquaza chased directly to Rustboro City, then talk about other things.
Steven was speechless, having to say goodbye for now.
Rustboro City was the headquarters of Devon Corporation, and the energy reaction appeared there. He had to go back early to collect enough information before making plans.
And at this time.
Alain and Mairin came to the side.
The little girl had many questions about the Shiny Rayquaza, and she wasn't shy, frantically asking him how powerful the Shiny Rayquaza was, frequently looking at Alain during the questioning.
All Baimu knew she wanted the latter to retreat in the face of difficulties.
But for Alain, encountering a trainer who was powerful and mastered Mega Evolution would only make him want to win and advance. From the fact that he agreed to Lysandre's task and decisively sent Mega Charizard X into the battle between Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre, this young man was very courageous.
Of course.
This belongs to the nice way of saying it.
The ugly way is that he didn't know his own limits.
However, in the trainer industry, young people like Alain who possessed a spirit of progress and courage were worthy of praise. Ash encountering this situation would not be afraid of battle.
"Mr. All Baimu... I hope you don't mind me calling you that."
Alain spoke very politely, and his purpose was also clear, "May I ask if it was you who let the Shiny Rayquaza Mega Evolve?"
"Not really."
All Baimu said softly: "I understand your thoughts, but the Shiny Rayquaza did indeed complete Mega Evolution on its own, and I can't count as its trainer... no need to be frustrated, I also possess Mega Evolution."
He took out the Key Stone from his bosom, which made Alain's eyes light up.
"Please, by all means, have a battle with me!"
"When we both have free time, I won't refuse."
All Baimu said with a smile.
He didn't have any prejudice against this side-story male lead, at least for now.
Perhaps when Alain defeated Ash-Greninja with Mega Charizard X, he had been unhappy with this guy for a long time, but with Ash's performance in Sun and Moon, that bit of unhappiness had long since disappeared.
He had traveled here, and Ash had already defeated several Masters Eight, and the trailer for the final was out. He didn't know if he won...
Anyway, he didn't care about Alain, so naturally, he wouldn't have strange views.
What should be scolded was the screenwriter who refused to let Ash win the championship in order to extend the IP's lifespan.
Speaking of which.
An unlucky young man who was kept in the dark and worked as cheap labor for others.
A poor guy who was kept in the dark and worked for others.
All Baimu's gaze toward Alain flashed with pity for his intelligence and luck.
At least when he was used, he knew he was used, and didn't succumb to the soft and hard tactics of Cang Cang Zhi Lang... well, he wasn't much stronger, both were used by others and worked for others.
Recalling the past, his mind was chaotic.
At the same time.
The person who made him stay in place finally came.
"Mr. All Baimu, I'm really sorry. Although you seem to know me, please let me introduce my identity." Lysandre bent over very politely and performed a gentleman's salute, "I am the representative of the Lysandre Labs in the Kalos region, Lysandre."
This lion-like man was a whole head taller than him, and when he straightened his waist, he inexplicably carried a bit of oppression.
"Long admired, Mr. Lysandre. You developed holographic technology that benefited all mankind, so how could I not know you?"
All Baimu smiled and maintained superficial politeness with the other party.
Lysandre Labs—this surface force of Team Flare didn't do nothing on weekdays. At least they developed reliable holographic image technology, which would inevitably be used on Rotom Phones in the future.
If it weren't for the lion-head's personality going to the extreme, there would inevitably be a share of him among the future technology giants.
"Oh? That's really an honor."
Lysandre was currently wearing a gentleman's skin, his face dignified but revealing a trace of kindness, and said: "Since you have some understanding, I won't hide it from you. Actually, our Lysandre Labs is very concerned about Pokémon during Mega Evolution..."
He said a lot, nothing more than fooling All Baimu that they obtained the Legendary Megalith to benefit mankind, for world peace, and to avoid being taken and used by bad people.
Come on! You are the biggest bad guy, aren't you!
All Baimu complained inwardly, but had to admit that Lysandre was a very charming person. Even if he clearly had the idea of drawing a line with him, after a short conversation, he still had a bit of goodwill toward him.
It's a pity that Lysandre's extreme thoughts could never be twisted by himself. In other words, if his thoughts could be twisted in a few words, the lion-head wouldn't be one of the few villains with personality charm.
Being enemies was inevitable.
And Lysandre's purpose in coming to talk to him was very clear, hoping that he would allow the lab to take the Legendary Megalith for research.
——Before tearing the face, asking for permission was a normal operation.
All Baimu responded with a few polite but perfunctory words, indicating that he would talk about it after finding the Megalith, which was using the delay tactic.
Actually, he hadn't figured out whether he should let Lysandre take the Legendary Megalith.
One was following the plot, as long as he spent effort to get in, he would definitely be able to catch them all in the end. The other was not following the plot, which would cause extra variables and might let people run away...
"Then we'll say goodbye first."
Lysandre didn't expect a few words to convince All Baimu, politely said goodbye, and left with a group of Team Flare people.
In the huge ruin, only many airship and device wrecks that hadn't been cleaned up remained, as well as All Baimu and Hydreigon waiting for the Shiny Rayquaza to return.
He looked at the new airship taking Lysandre away, thinking to himself if he blew up the airship now, would he not have to think so much?
No.
Why did he go to the extreme too?
All Baimu thought with annoyance, and decided to wait for a suitable opportunity to tell Steven his thoughts, and pull him into targeting Team Flare in advance.
"Troubled times..."
He sighed, and really felt bored, starting to explore this strange ruin located on the giant rock.
The Hoenn continent in the ancient period didn't only have the Draconid people; there must have been other mysterious ancestors who mastered magical black technology. After they obtained the Legendary Megalith, they sealed it up out of various thoughts.
Click—
Click click.
All Baimu took many photos, sent them to Zinnia, and told her what things he had experienced.
Originally, he wanted to ask which group of people built this ruin. As a successor, Zinnia might know, but unexpectedly and reasonably, the latter was more concerned about the Shiny Rayquaza and Hoenn Rayquaza that were fighting.
Zinnia: Where are they!?
All Baimu: I feel like they flew into outer space. I can't see anything here, whether it's the aftermath of the battle or anything else...
Zinnia: How could you let the two of them meet!
All Baimu: Sister! Is this something I can stop? Do you think I'm a fool, liking to watch ultra-ancient Pokémon set off fireworks?
He sent an emoji of Plusle and Minun hugging and crying loudly.
Zinnia:...
Zinnia: Sorry, I didn't mean to vent my anger on you.
Actually apologized so decisively? This girl is quite cute.
He sent another emoji of a smiling Blissey, containing text similar to "Give a band-aid."
All Baimu: I'm waiting for the Shiny Rayquaza to return now. I feel that the Hoenn Rayquaza actually doesn't want to fight it very much, the main purpose is to compete for the Legendary Megalith... Why does it want the Legendary Megalith? Did it not take it in the ancient period?
Zinnia:... Actually, the number of times our Draconid people have contacted the Dragon God Rayquaza is not many. For this one's action logic, I dare not have any judgment. If guessing, I personally feel that Rayquaza wouldn't have covetousness for the Legendary Megalith.
Actually, All Baimu thought so too.
But what exactly was the situation, why Rayquaza would pursue the Legendary Megalith it didn't want thousands of years ago, still had to wait to see if there was a chance to communicate directly with it.
The Shiny Rayquaza didn't return for a long time.
He, who had swept through the entire ruin and had no discoveries, simply found a place to train the Shiny Milotic.
"Sorry, because of my personal reasons, your practice time has decreased, but I believe with your strength, you will definitely shine in the Wallace Cup!"
"Mee-lo!"
Shiny Milotic nodded. It also thought so, and warned itself in its heart that it must win the Wallace Cup, and then offer the ribbon it won to its good big brother Aggron, who had always been very helpful to it.
Why not offer it to the trainer?
Next time, next time, there will be!
Milotic felt that its life couldn't only have one ribbon.
"Continue practicing."
All Baimu accompanied Milotic to practice the performance that had been decided long ago.
This guy's talent in move changes was actually not as good as Blissey's, let alone the most showy Mawile. It could be said that in the characteristics related to the Pokémon Contest, besides being beautiful, it was "useless."
Fortunately, its trainer was experienced, and the understanding accumulated from Mawile and Blissey was enough to let him slowly guide Milotic to finish everything it should do.
The rest was only very ordinary circular practice.
Being stupid wasn't a problem; the problem was that the stupid one wasn't diligent enough.
Milotic was a bit stupider compared to Mawile, but it was diligent enough, and wouldn't casually shout bitterness or tiredness. Paired with its beauty, it was enough to make it one of the top of the pyramid in the Pokémon Contest world.
There was no other way.
In a competition that showed the beauty of the Pokémon itself, the proportion of appearance was too exaggerated.
Otherwise, why would Milotic always be welcomed by many Coordinator trainers? Some even said that as long as you cultivate a Milotic well, the first screening has a guarantee of 28 points.
Many judges were dissatisfied with this sentence, but had to admit that a well-cultivated Milotic was indeed worthy of a guarantee of 28 points.
"Mee-lo~"
Only to see the Shiny Milotic surrounded by gorgeous colorful halos, swimming and wandering in the air like Rayquaza, spraying a mist of water full of fragrance.
All Baimu looked at this scene with satisfaction. To be honest, he didn't expect that the 【Mystic Water】 not only increased the power of Milotic's Water-type moves, but also improved its control ability over the Water-type.
Making him want to get a few more magical items and put them on all his Pokémon.
Speaking of which.
It seemed that Blissey and Dragapult didn't have items in the team, and the others either had Eviolite, attribute-boosting items, or Mega Stones.
What's good to bring for Blissey and the others?
Many items in the game don't exist in the animation worldview, such as 【Leftovers】, 【Choice Specs】, 【Focus Sash】, etc.
