Chapter 1060

~14 min read 2,624 words

Scream Tail didn't shut up in the end.

Screaming is its habit, just like needing to eat when hungry and needing to sleep when tired.

However, it is willing to lower the volume of its screaming—

The premise is that it gets to eat what's in the basin, and that no one calls it Jigglypuff anymore.

Scream Tail itself doesn't know the specific meaning of 【Jigglypuff】, but subconsciously it is extremely disgusted by this title.

As if its own existence had been denied.

"Fine, you wait a moment."

All Baimu entered the observation station to discuss with others, and among driving it away, keeping it, or capturing it, he chose to beat... feed it a meal and drive it away.

Even Nemona expressed it this way, which was truly surprising.

After all, compared to the resistant Arven and the frightened Penny, she was clearly particularly interested in Scream Tail, or rather, curious about all newly discovered Pokémon.

"We are a team now; I can't ignore the emotions of my companions just for a little curiosity, right?"

Nemona said frankly, performing with the responsibility of a student council president.

While the few were talking.

Scream Tail walked in from the outside brazenly.

"Ah!"

It waved at the few people with ease; the innocent and cute smiling face couldn't see the previous violent state at all.

Penny silently hid in the corner while covering her ears, and Arven beside her also frowned.

Only Nemona greeted it happily, circling around it to look here and there, and poking its "hair".

Although it looks very much like hair, in fact, this thing belongs to tentacles mixed with hair and muscle... or rather a "tail".

Even though it already has a small tail behind its butt.

Scream Tail doesn't like this kind of overly familiar guy, and puffed up its cheeks with a dark face in an intimidating manner.

Nemona smiled, raised her hands, and retreated, "Sorry, sorry."

"Ah~"

Scream Tail immediately returned to its cute appearance, its eyes fixed on the basin in All Baimu's hand, "Eeya~"

Can you give it to me to eat now?

"This thing isn't done yet, I'll be a moment..."

All Baimu saw its suspicious look of distrust and had to say speechlessly, "Eat, eat."

Since it has already come in voluntarily, wouldn't whatever he wants to do to it be up for grabs?

Scream Tail revealed a smile and picked up the semi-finished product in the basin and ate it with relish.

"Doesn't know quality."

All Baimu shook his head and went back to the kitchen to cook.

Penny hurriedly followed; she didn't want to be pierced by magic sound, even if Scream Tail was very cute.

Arven and Nemona also entered the door one after another, and the few chatted about Scream Tail and the time machine Pokémon again.

Apart from the strong desire to attack and the love of noise, this giant Jigglypuff didn't seem to have much difference from ordinary Pokémon.

It also possesses the desire to eat and can ensure minimum communication.

Better than Brute Bonnet.

That guy purely has no IQ; Porygon2 was even angered by it. When asked where it came from and if it had seen a spiky-haired boy, it replied "Wai-bi-ba-bu."

Is this something a normal Pokémon would say?

"It doesn't seem to want to leave."

Nemona pointed to Scream Tail, who was poking its head in at the door.

It sniffed upwards, as if catching the aroma in the air, and the stainless steel basin in its hand was cleaner than if it had been washed.

"Eeya!"

"..." All Baimu didn't pay attention to it; too much time had already been wasted. If the processed ingredients aren't put into the pot in time, they will oxidize and affect the taste.

A moment later.

Dinner was finished.

The outside of the observation station was completely plunged into darkness.

Moonlight could not pass through the clouds to shine on this land; only a few crystals exposed outside released fluorescence.

All around was silent; even the chirping of wild Pokémon could not be heard.

Miraidon sniffed the aroma overflowing in the air, but when looking towards the darkness, it maintained a vigilant posture.

"Gah..."

Zzz!

The gate of the observation station opened.

All Baimu and the others walked out holding large and small basins, and Scream Tail followed obediently behind, already strongly controlled by the pungent aroma of the glowing cuisine, without any previous awareness of being hostile.

"Ah——Ah——"

When they arrived outdoors, the evening breeze blew its hair, and Scream Tail suddenly woke up.

"Ah~"

It stepped forward and pulled Nemona's hem; compared to Arven and Penny, who were far away from it, this person was closest to it.

Nemona held the large basin and turned her head curiously to look at it, "What's wrong?"

"Eeya! Ah!"

Scream Tail screamed shrilly, looking slightly serious, and its large, golden eyes vigilantly observed the surroundings.

This posture aroused Penny's vigilance.

"What is it worried about?"

"Worried about another batch of Pokémon, right." Porygon2 controlled the mobile phone to make a sound, "Didn't Professor Turo call two types of Pokémon through the time machine?"

Two types?

Penny suddenly realized; Scream Tail from the past and Iron Bundle from the future, aren't those two types!

On the roof.

Calyrex also telepathically said to All Baimu's ear: 'A group of Pokémon I haven't seen before has appeared.'

"Daytime belongs to the ancient, nighttime belongs to the future, huh."

He muttered to himself and turned to seek the opinions of others.

Arven said, "I was attacked before, it was also when staying overnight... I don't mean to distrust you, but should we still eat inside?"

The outside is indeed spacious, but also full of crises.

Penny nodded repeatedly to express agreement.

She was worried about seeing future Pokémon stranger than the headless Iron Bundle, which would make her lose her appetite.

"Fine."

All Baimu agreed, letting them go in first, while he released a few Pokémon that obviously couldn't stay in the observation station.

He planned to feed them and Calyrex first.

The presence of Aggron and Steelix among them gave Scream Tail a fright.

These two Pokémon, which obviously had metallic colors, reminded it of the group of "enemies" that only acted at night.

No.

More terrifying than them!

"Eeya..."

Scream Tail was amazed; the "enemies" in its impression were mostly not as huge as them.

How did these two guys in front of it manage it?

And while it was secretly observing, Aggron and other Pokémon were also observing it.

The big monster found Hydreigon and whispered curiously, "Goo-roar?"

"Hydreigon!"

Hydreigon shook its head.

How could this guy be a new companion? A mere Fairy-type Pokémon...

Suddenly.

Several Pokémon looked towards the foothills swallowed by darkness in unison.

Something is approaching!

"Ah~ Eeya!"

Scream Tail screamed uneasily, and was suddenly pinched on the mouth by All Baimu, who was half-squatting.

Hum hum hum hum——

A strange mechanical sound rang from the far end of the horizon; he slowly straightened his waist and looked at the uninvited guest that emitted a light blue luster.

Scream Tail finally stopped screaming wantonly, just appearing a bit nervous, "Ah..."

"Did I see that right?"

All Baimu narrowed his eyes; the opponent's outer contour was gradually illuminated by the camping light, changing from blurry to clear.

——Swords of Justice Pokémon "Cobalion", mechanical version.

The peculiar existence recorded in the Violet Book appeared in front of them so brazenly.

The opponent's four hooves, forehead, and two horns all released light blue fluorescence. Its head rotated 360 degrees like a radar until it locked onto the light source where All Baimu and a group of Pokémon were located.

"Beep!!"

Mechanical Cobalion let out a strange buzzing sound and rushed over at a very fast speed!

Scream Tail's scalp was about to explode, and it suddenly screamed, "Eeya——!"

It knew this guy; when it first came to the vicinity, it didn't know any better and ran around at night and was slashed.

Nemona ran out quickly from inside the observation station and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? What happened? Wow! Cobalion!?"

"Where is there a Swords of Justice?"

"What Pokémon is Cobalion?"

Penny and Arven poked their two heads out from the door upon hearing the sound, and immediately saw the strange-looking mechanical Cobalion.

It was like a male deer launching a charge, burying its head deep, causing its two horns to stretch forward and turn into two huge curved blades!

Hum!

Countless fluorescent blue light blades tore through the air in the blink of an eye and flew towards the group of Pokémon!

What move? Air Cutter?

"Goo-roar!"

Aggron stepped forward, blocking the incoming light blades like a city wall.

Dang dang dang——

Continuous crisp sounds and sparks splashed.

Hydreigon flapped its wings and rushed, roaring and opening its mouth wide to spit out raging flames, crashing and swallowing the mechanical Cobalion!

"Beep——"

The future Pokémon in the flames looked up at Hydreigon, its electronic eyes flashing calmly as if it had no sense of pain.

The next moment, the two blades on its head extended again, turning into two brown-red giant blades, and it suddenly jumped and slashed at Hydreigon!

Swish!

It's 【Sacred Sword】!

All Baimu understood its move, but without needing to give an order, Hydreigon dodged it on its own.

"Roar!"

It was like a Rumble using a Q skill, spitting flames while moving, continuously scorching this mechanical Cobalion.

"Ah..."

Scream Tail was amazed, and then its expression suddenly became fierce.

The time for revenge has come!

It opened its mouth wide to draw in a large amount of air, expanding itself to twice its original size in a short time, like a small house.

Seeing this, All Baimu immediately retreated and waved his hand to signal the two at the door to go back inside.

Without needing his guidance, Penny, who had heard the wind, had already shrunk back.

Arven reacted a beat slower; even though he was in the back, he was still dizzy from the Hyper Voice that Scream Tail contributed with all its heart!

"Ah——!!"

Rolling sound waves suddenly pierced through the clouds, tore through the silent night, and even pushed away the flames spat out by Hydreigon.

Like an invisible heavy hammer, it crashed into the mechanical Cobalion from the side!

Boom!

Accompanied by a heavy muffled sound, the mechanical Cobalion disappeared from where it was, and the bottom of the hillside not far away suddenly shattered and caved in, dust and smoke rose, and broken stones flew!

Scream Tail slowly stopped screaming and happily wiped the corner of its mouth.

"Ah~!"

Refreshing~!

"Hydreigon..."

Hydreigon saw the mechanical Cobalion dim and lusterless through the noisy smoke and dust, and was suddenly furious.

What do you mean?

It spat fire for half a day and still had the strength to fight, but that guy moved after one roar?

"Hydreigon!"

Hydreigon roared, trying to wake the other party up.

But it had no effect.

The Hydreigon that won by lying down was extremely angry, and the MVP Scream Tail happily asked All Baimu for something to eat.

"Ah~"

"... Here you go."

He handed a bowl to Scream Tail casually and went up to observe with Nemona.

Aggron followed closely, and seeing Hydreigon yelling angrily, it shook its head slightly, speechless.

It was the one who really had its kill stolen; it was the one who blocked all the moves.

It hadn't even spoken yet, so how could this guy be embarrassed?

Under the hillside.

The mechanical Cobalion was covered in dust and broken stones, motionless like a machine in disrepair for many years.

Nemona half-squatted, and the Rotom Phone turned on the light to shine.

"What is this guy's name?"

She asked All Baimu beside her.

All Baimu opened the Violet Book, turned to the page recording the strange "Mythical Pokémon," and saw the text marked on it.

"I always thought this was a name for a body part, but now it seems... Iron Crown, it should be called Iron Crown."

What an abstract name!

He complained inwardly.

"Iron Crown?"

Nemona, on the contrary, had a good impression of this name, "A future Pokémon that looks like Cobalion? Natural evolution is truly wonderful!"

Natural evolution?

All Baimu knocked on Iron Crown's body and didn't think at all that this was the result of natural evolution.

Man-made Pokémon is more like it.

For example, the world-destroying bug Genesect, which was transformed from an ancient Pokémon from 300 million years ago into its current appearance.

"If Iron Crown is here... where would Iron Thorns and Iron Leaves be?"

All Baimu was concerned about another matter.

Nemona looked up and asked, "The other two Swords of Justice?"

"Hmm..."

He nodded and looked at Calyrex on the roof.

The little deer, who was always paying attention to him, telepathically said from a distance, 'I haven't found any creature with an energy level similar to it approaching.'

Nemona looked around and asked again, "Are you capturing it?"

"No."

All Baimu refused decisively.

Future Pokémon are enough with Miraidon; this guy isn't big, and the "Swords of Justice" whose head can rotate is too strange.

Nemona was a bit interested, but it wasn't a Pokémon she defeated, so she didn't want to snatch it.

"Leave it to me to handle the next time we meet another Swords of Justice!"

She said with great interest.

All Baimu had no opinion.

In the end, Iron Crown was picked up by Steelix and thrown into the waterfall in the distance, letting it go to the deepest level of the crater with the water flow.

The two returned to the observation station and continued to enjoy dinner.

Perhaps Iron Crown's encounter aroused vigilance, and no future Pokémon dared to approach outside the observation station.

Scream Tail was thick-skinned and refused to leave.

The nighttime Area Zero is the world of future Pokémon, and it can only exert 100% of its strength when irradiated by sunlight, so it doesn't dare to run around.

All Baimu saw its obedient posture and went to seek the opinions of others before agreeing.

Mainly because Penny's mindset had changed.

She had always been afraid of Scream Tail, which would scream and be violent, but after seeing future Pokémon being more abstract, she could accept ancient Pokémon instead.

Everything depends on comparison.

Miraidon guarded the door as promised, and accompanied by Aggron and other Pokémon, it felt very inflated, thinking its mindset had recovered.

——

Safe and sound until dawn.

Sunlight returned to the crater.

Scream Tail, who also slept outside the door, woke up with a shout, ignoring the environment early in the morning, and opened its mouth to scream.

It was so noisy that the surrounding Pokémon glared at it.

"Shut up!"

All Baimu walked out of the observation station while yawning and skillfully pinched its mouth, "I have a biological clock, I don't need you to be an alarm clock!"

Scream Tail glared at him aggrievedly and angrily, but was ignored.

Breakfast time.

Nemona and Penny were both in high spirits, but Arven, who was the last to get up, was in the worst state, looking listless with dark circles under his eyes.

"Good morning..."

"Did you have a nightmare?" Nemona asked curiously.

Arven's expression was tangled, "No... it's hard to say."

He dreamed last night that he met his parents, but neither of them paid attention to him; no matter how he shouted, they didn't respond, only caring about Miraidon.

In the dream, the two even used the time machine to take Miraidon and fly away, and no matter how he chased, he couldn't catch up.

It was too painful.
