Chapter 818

"I will use it properly."

All Baimu took it with a thick skin.

The Z-Crystal was pink, and the inside was a pattern resembling an eye, Psychic-type.

Ninth one GET!

He put it away properly, feeling satisfied that the Z-Crystals he had collected had reached half of the total.

In the remaining two islands, Island Kahuna Nanu and Island Kahuna Hapu would produce two Z-Crystals, and the known Totem Pokémon Kommo-o could produce one Dragonium Z, so there were six vacancies left.

Six...

It's up to you! Baby!

All Baimu patted the detector while putting the box away.

It's really a happy thing that the money wasn't spent in vain; thanks to the Team Rocket trio, besides catching Pikachu and making trouble, everything else could be considered reliable.

After leisurely drinking the pineapple juice, All Baimu stood up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, he left a small box of Pokéblocks to pay the bill.

He might not have anything else in his pocket now, but he definitely wouldn't be short of Pokéblocks; he stuffed them more diligently than his phone.

After all, how can you touch Pokémon without paying?

You have to pay something.

Easy-to-carry Pokéblocks are naturally the best choice.

"Ya-leh ya-leh..."

Oranguru looked at the Pokéblocks on the table and scratched its head in confusion.

The forest tavern never charges, and it's true that some wild Pokémon are willing to leave some feedback, but they are generally things like berries and sweet honey.

This thing—

Huh?

It opened it and smelled it, and its wise eyes gradually brightened.

Outside the treehouse.

Rotom-Dex was feeling low because of its dereliction of duty; All Baimu didn't say much when he saw this, and reached out to pat its round head.

The smarter the Pokémon, the more they think; for Rotom-Dex, which has a strong sense of responsibility, the current verbal comfort might only have the opposite effect.

He decided to find an opportunity to take a few more days off in the future.

In this way, Rotom-Dex would have the opportunity to visit the forest tavern again and vent the pressure accumulated in recent days all at once.

While pondering, All Baimu looked at Mawile on the other side.

Unexpectedly, from the slightly trembling lips of the other party, he actually heard a singing voice that was not high in pitch but had a rhythm!

"Chee-doh~ Boo-chee-doh~"

Sensing the gaze from the trainer, Mawile closed her mouth shyly, shook her head arrogantly, and faced him with her large jaws.

Click!

The large jaws behind her head opened, as if threatening.

All Baimu slapped her lightly and said: "You're drooling!"

"Chee-doh!?"

Mawile closed the mouth of the large jaws behind her head in a panic, grabbed a napkin with one small hand, and asked the trainer for a napkin with the other.

She had always been unable to tolerate herself, as a lady, looking barbaric in her behavior.

After discovering she had been tricked, she rolled her eyes.

"Chee-doh~!"

Childish!

All Baimu: "Hehe~"

Back to the wooden house by the sea.

Since there were no urgent things to do for the rest of the day, he moved on to daily training.

The "checking for omissions" he shouted when leaving the Orre region wasn't just a slogan; he had been working hard to make up for the team's shortcomings these days.

And currently.

The only obvious shortcomings in the team were the two Ghost-types, Shiny Gengar and Galarian Corsola.

However.

The combat power of the latter actually didn't fall too far behind the large team; its low output had nothing to do with whether it worked hard or not, as its positioning wasn't for output.

The shortcoming was limited to its relatively low level.

But this matter wasn't its fault alone; mainly, All Baimu would prioritize other Pokémon when obtaining level rewards.

In short, the only one obviously falling behind was Gengar.

"Have you really made a decision?"

He looked at the gray fat guy in front of him who had restrained his usual playful posture and was serious and solemn.

He didn't expect it to take the initiative to find him after training.

Gengar nodded: "Gen-ga!"

It had actually prepared long before coming to the Alola region, and at this moment, it was just taking out a part of the courage it had once mustered.

It wanted to face its former fear—Mega Evolution.

After successfully Mega Evolving, even if its energy level couldn't keep up with the first echelon, its output and other aspects wouldn't be too far behind.

Then what else to consider?

It, Gengar, also has backbone, okay!

Don't look at it always liking to play weird, twisting its face like rubber clay; doesn't it want to be as calm and composed as Aggron?

It doesn't have the confidence!

"Since that's the case, fine."

All Baimu nodded and put Gengar's Mega Evolution on the agenda.

Previously, upon learning that Nanu had prepared a Gengarite for him, he had temporarily shelved it, deciding to cultivate their feelings well first.

It's very difficult to succeed in Mega Evolution without a foundation of feelings.

The Mega Steelix proved this point; if it hadn't been brought by his side all the time after the opening of the Ever Grande Conference, and the two sides had further developed to be intimate and harmonious based on the bits and pieces of fighting together, it would have been very difficult to achieve Mega Evolution in the first week of returning to the Orre region.

All Baimu contacted Nanu: "Did you prepare a surprise for me?"

Nanu: "... Ah?"

All Baimu: "I heard from Steven that you prepared a Gengarite for me."

Nanu: "Oh, there is such a thing. Why, do you want it now?"

All Baimu: "Gengar wants it, and of course I want it, but it seems a bit anxious, and you also understand that the competition in my team is actually quite big..."

Hydreigon's desire for the ace position was overflowing, and he wasn't blind, so how could he not see it.

Even other Pokémon vaguely had the idea of challenging Aggron's position.

To this day.

There were no completely Buddhist Pokémon in the team.

Even Corsola, the office worker, was forced to roll inward, and Dragapult, the socially anxious dragon, was also holding back a breath, wanting to make itself stronger.

At least don't eat shriveled in front of powerful enemies like in the past.

Nanu: "I know, I'll mail it to you tomorrow."

All Baimu: "Thank you."

He sent a bowing expression of thanks, but didn't get a reply.

Really busy.

All Baimu sighed inwardly; it wasn't hard to see from the few sentences exchanged just now that Nanu's reply was entirely squeezed out of his busy schedule.

That's right.

The day of the Orre League Conference was getting closer and closer. Nanu, as the planner, hadn't done a good job, so how could he have the face to run for the Orre League President?

The burden on people's shoulders is heavy, both as the conference planner and the Mayor of Po Town.

"In two days, it will arrive in two days."

He said to Gengar, who was full of expectations.

After daily training.

All Baimu randomly picked a Pokémon to experience Z-moves; he hoped that every Pokémon would experience the feeling of Z-moves.

Maybe it will come in handy in the future.

After all, Z-moves are never limited to attack means; if you use Z-Crystals with status moves, they will bring many unexpected effects.

He remembered the Z-moves 【Lock-On】 of the Normal-type and 【Tailwind】 of the Flying-type relatively clearly.

While retaining the effect of the original move, the new effect 【Critical Hit】 is added; the former is suitable for Drapion with the Sniper ability, and the latter is suitable for Honchkrow with the Super Luck ability.

Critical hit team, right.

It's a pity All Baimu doesn't have either.

"After getting familiar with it, the physical strength consumed by Z-moves will decrease... it's a pity the number of times won't increase." He gently patted the sand off his body.

Professor Kukui's words indeed made sense.

It's a pity that the "recharge" time for the Z-Ring is at least half an hour or more each time.

Unless you can capture any of the Island Guardians, these guys can directly fill the missing part of the natural energy of the Z-Ring.

——

The next day.

Something unexpected happened to All Baimu.

Gladion and Lillie, the brother and sister, suddenly visited.

"Please... lend a helping hand!"

The chuunibyou teenager's face didn't show the relaxation from yesterday when he unraveled his sister's knot, only the dusty look full of worries and the earnest plea.

Beside him, Lillie, who was wearing a ponytail, also bowed forty degrees and said loudly: "Please!"

They actually came to the door!

All Baimu had thought about it for a long time yesterday and finally decided not to get involved, never expecting Gladion to come to him proactively.

Why?

He vaguely remembered that in the anime, Ash wanted to help but was told by Gladion—"I'm sorry to involve you, but this is a problem within our family," but in reality, he ran to ask for help.

"Let me hear what happened first."

All Baimu suspected that some changes beyond his expectations had occurred in the process.

However.

In Gladion's brief narrative, he understood that the plot hadn't changed, but because Lillie wanted to act together, Gladion was really worried.

Understood.

Find a bodyguard for his sister.

All Baimu instantly understood Gladion's thoughts.

The chuunibyou teenager thought Ash was just a trainer on par with him, and couldn't be compared to himself who had beaten him frequently, which was why he refused Ash's help at the time.

But he probably didn't expect Ash to deliver it to his door proactively, and Nebby was the Solgaleo he was looking for.

Likewise.

He also didn't know what kind of danger he would face; the Ultra Wormhole was like a mystery to Gladion at this time, and not showing hesitation or fear because of this was already worthy of praise.

All Baimu fell silent.

Gladion, who was standing opposite, looked calm, but was actually as anxious as his sister.

Because the road ahead was full of unknown fog, he had to find enough bargaining chips to avoid the tragedy of bone and flesh separation happening again.

"You..."

All Baimu suddenly opened his mouth and asked with a smile while the brother and sister were in an expression of their hearts jumping to their throats: "Have you had breakfast?"

Both shook their heads.

In turn, Gladion realized something and hurriedly refused, "We are still—"

"You are hungry, your sister is hungry, and your Pokémon are hungry. How can you have the energy to do things like this? The bigger the matter, the more you need to ensure your physical state; it's not something you can deal with by just eating two berries."

All Baimu shook his head.

Even emergency food for the army can guarantee human needs.

Gladion, no matter how reluctant he was, didn't want his Pokémon and sister to accompany him in hunger.

Lillie originally intended to say she could overcome it, but considering her Alola Vulpix was white and shiny, her confidence wasn't very sufficient.

And so.

The brother and sister and their Pokémon enjoyed a wonderful breakfast.

The originally restless heart calmed down.

Satiety always makes people feel at ease.

All Baimu saw that the two were no longer in the appearance of being in a hurry to collect debts, smiled, took out three Pokéballs, and said: "I probably can't go with you, but they can help you."

Lillie didn't understand, and Gladion's eyes shone slightly.

"Are they willing to listen to my instructions?"

"Don't worry, as long as the Pokéball is in hand, they will definitely listen to you, and your sister too. No need to worry, they will be the most loyal guards."

The ones lent to Gladion were undoubtedly the three Legendary Titans.

If he remembered correctly, they would return before the sun went down in the evening, so there was no need to worry about delaying training or anything.

Furthermore, he would also go to the Altar of the Sunne on Bonidao today; on one hand, it was to watch Cosmog evolve into Solgaleo, and on the other hand, it was to challenge the Totem Kommo-o.

Kill two birds with one stone.

How beautiful.

"Thank you very much!" Gladion was full of joy; he had seen the power mastered by the three Legendary Titans.

With them, his sister Lillie's safety would be guaranteed.

Lillie didn't understand and asked: "Mr. All Baimu, what are these three Pokémon?"

"Legendary giants, Ash said your knowledge is very profound, you shouldn't not recognize them, right?" All Baimu said with a smile.

Lillie covered her mouth in surprise, "Legendary giants!"

Although she couldn't touch Pokémon due to psychological trauma in the past, she always maintained enthusiasm and yearning, and legendary Pokémon were naturally within her scope of understanding.

At this moment.

She understood why her brother would refuse Ash's help but run to ask for help from another trainer.

Being able to capture legendary giants.

What a powerful trainer this must be!

"Haha, don't be too surprised; legendary Pokémon are just Pokémon after all. You can have more contact with them and tear off the mysterious veil on them."

All Baimu laughed loudly.

Lillie is the phantom beast girl who will own Magearna in the future, and she matches the legendary beast boy Ash. Plus her good friend Mallow will also temporarily take care of a Shaymin in the future.

The Sun and Moon arc can be said to be the arc where legendary Pokémon and Mythical Pokémon communicate and interact most closely with humans.

Lillie was very excited and nodded: "I definitely will!"

The brother and sister left.

Gladion was currently driven by clues to go to the Altar of the Sunne on Bonidao; he wanted to try his luck there to see if he could find Solgaleo to open the Ultra Wormhole.

Unexpectedly, Ash delivered it to him proactively.

"Hmm... we should act too."

All Baimu packed his things.

A moment later.

He and Hydreigon arrived at Bewear's den, and the first thing they saw was Tapu Bewear, who was anxious and angry because the Team Rocket trio had disappeared again.

However.

Compared to the situation where it couldn't be found at all last time, this time it had left traces of tracking on the two people and one cat in advance.

"Goo-woo-goo~"

Bewear expressed with some guilt that it didn't have time to entertain him.

All Baimu waved his hand, took Stufful off his head and put it in his arms, and said: "Let's go find them together? It just so happens I know where they are, and I'm also planning to go there to do something."

"Goo-woo-goo?"

Bewear was very surprised.

All Baimu nodded, "Something big is about to happen, I'm planning to go and be an audience, and if there's a problem, I'll help out."

Bewear agreed.

Because it also felt that something big was about to happen—

It hadn't seen the Island Guardian this morning.
