Coumarine City.

Not long ago, he had seen it from a hundred years ago in the simulation plot.

"What a big tree..."

On the deck of the cruise ship, All Baimu could look out at a giant tree growing on a plateau; even from several kilometers away, he could realize its vastness.

Just because there were many Pokémon under the tree for comparison, looking at the shelf fungi growing around the trunk alone, those pieces were so big that one could battle on them.

If he remembered correctly, the Coumarine Gym was at the top of its main trunk, a wide area where one could build a flower house and lay out a wide battle field, enough to accommodate two Pokémon moving to their heart's content.

It was completely different from the gray high tower of the Coumarine Gym in the game.

He watched from afar, feeling a bit envious.

Click.

He took a photo with his phone, sent it to Calyrex on Mt. Silver, and then sent a shy Blissey. jpg he drew himself.

All Baimu: 'Want.'

Calyrex: 'The lonely one grants it; press 1 to give it to you.'

All Baimu: '... Where did you learn that?'

Calyrex: 'Want it? Or not want it?'

All Baimu:

Calyrex: 'You shall wait with hope.'

Sometimes, letting high-intelligence Pokémon surf the internet for too long isn't a good thing.

All Baimu was truly worried that he would see a King of Bountiful Harvests full of internet slang in the future.

The key point was that the phrase "press 1 to send" was started by himself.

Before, Porygon2 discussed with him how to operate Mawile's account; simple videos were too shallow and needed a script.

All Baimu recalled some harmless internet jokes from his previous life.

Because the "inspiration" was continuous, Porygon2 asked him how to send Mawile's merchandise, and he casually said—"press 1 to send."

Since then, it has become a popular internet term on PokéTok, and it has been out of control ever since.

Little Secretary Lillie even sent a message to praise his creativity, feeling that he was very talented...

All Baimu was sweating profusely.

He quietly pulled Mawile aside and whispered, "How about... delaying buying a phone for Ogerpon?"

"Chi-do?"

Mawile was puzzled.

It rarely had a little sister who suited its taste, and it even planned to film videos together!

All Baimu said, "I'm worried that you will be poisoned by the bad internet atmosphere."

"Leave this to me; I can help it filter information." Porygon2 volunteered.

Upon hearing this, Mawile grabbed the floating Porygon2 and stared at it at close range, "Chi-do?"

"No, no, absolutely not!"

Porygon2 denied it hurriedly; in fact, there were some. Mawile had posted so many videos, and there were always one or two discordant comments.

They were all blocked by it using special software.

All Baimu, the beneficiary, unnaturally found Ogerpon to interact with, "Do you think that big tree is beautiful?"

"Poni-o~"

Ogerpon nodded.

Grass-type Pokémon are naturally close to nature and plants; how could it not like seeing a giant, thriving life?

Mawile looked suspiciously at Porygon2 and All Baimu, and tentatively believed it.

The Porygon2 that regained its freedom relaxed quietly.

It's hard.

Being a professional assistant is too hard!

The cruise ship docked.

All Baimu took Mawile and Ogerpon off the ship; the Shiny Milotic, due to inconvenience in movement, had been put into a ball early.

"Poni-o..."

Ogerpon looked in amazement at the street along the port outside the harbor.

Following the academic city and the commercial city, the little girl from the countryside saw a third type of city—

A tourist city.

Different faces, different hair colors, and even different clothing; Coumarine City gathered people from all over the world, and the number of Pokémon species was countless.

Ogerpon had a bit of stage fright.

It took the Teal Mask from under its clothes; looking at the world through a layer gave it a sense of security.

"What a cute little girl! About the same height as Mawile~ Your sister?"

A female tourist stopped, praising it while reaching out to touch its head.

Ogerpon hurriedly hid behind All Baimu, timidly revealing half its head.

All Baimu protected it with one hand, smiled, and nodded, "Yes, she rarely goes out and is a bit shy."

He gave Mawile a look, and the latter understood, grabbed Ogerpon's arm, and took it running towards a jewelry store on the street.

Porygon2 chased after them to pay.

They wandered until noon.

All Baimu ate with several Pokémon at a branch of "Golduck's Smile" before taking Hydreigon to Cyllage City.

"Sha-sang!"

The Hydreigon, whose competitors had all disappeared, was very excited.

It was still unhappy with Miraidon, but couldn't find a chance to bite it, just waiting to start when they returned to Mt. Silver this time.

Hydreigon must let the other party know which one is the true Dragon King at home!

"Poni-o?"

Ogerpon leaned in All Baimu's arms, feeling that the experience of riding Hydreigon was far different from Miraidon.

Sitting on Miraidon would have a strong sense of push-back, and the wind coming towards one's face seemed to pull at the skin.

Sitting on Hydreigon wouldn't; the whole journey was smooth and peaceful, with no wind coming, only the sound of the wind.

It was very puzzled.

All Baimu laughed, "Hydreigon is blocking the wind for us; look carefully—when Miraidon flies at high speed, it pursues speed and will try to lower its head to reduce wind resistance.

"Hydreigon cares more about whether we are comfortable riding, so it will raise its head to block the airflow blowing towards us through its flower-like hair."

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the different flight postures of the two Pokémon.

But in the matter of loving him, Hydreigon always tries its best.

Ogerpon was surprised, "Poni-o..."

Is it so careful even though it looks fierce and has a bad temper?

It truly changed its impression of Hydreigon.

Speaking of which, many of All Baimu's Pokémon actually have personalities that are completely inconsistent with their appearance.

Ogerpon was initially amazed by Milotic's unique charm, feeling soul-stirring just by being looked at, but only after truly communicating did it find the other party was a bit silly.

Looking cold is actually not knowing how to speak.

And Mawile; the initial impression was that it was willful and not to be provoked, but after contact, it found the other party was very enthusiastic, like a sister helping it integrate into the big family.

Aggron looks majestic, but is very gentle inside; Steelix thinks about where to dig holes all day; Dragapult is shyer than it and is embarrassed to look at it directly; Galarian Corsola sleeps all day; Gengar and the Dragon siblings are all troublemakers...

The most consistent inside and out is Blissey.

Gentle, kind, and capable!

Ogerpon admires it the most, thinking how good it would have been if it had known so many moves back then.

But it's okay!

It can start learning now!

Ogerpon is determined to take care of All Baimu like Blissey.

——

Cyllage City.

All Baimu came here for the second time.

The last time was being dropped on Super Island by a Shiny Rayquaza, coincidentally meeting Alain challenging the Gym.

Remember he also participated in the World Coronation Series in the journey.

Is there a chance to meet?

All Baimu stood at the entrance of this giant square arena, looked at it for a few times, and then took Ogerpon inside.

"Hello, I'm signing up for the competition." He submitted the information on his phone to the staff.

He stayed in the Advanced Class last season and didn't play, so his results for the new season were reset to zero, and he had to start over from the Normal Class.

Only the Master Class can drop rank and maintain rank.

And influenced by the duel between Raihan and Leon last year, the number of participants this year has more than doubled.

He signed up at the beginning of the season.

Because he hadn't matched any opponents to battle, he was now ranked.

Last year, the one in front was directly removed!

Ash plays more diligently than him; he's probably around 1,000th place now, right? Don't know how many matches it will take to catch up.

After All Baimu signed up, a crowd of people surrounded him.

"Champion! Are you participating too?"

"There will definitely be a spot for you in the Master Class this year!"

"Can we take a photo, Champion?"

"Is this your relative? Huh? Pokémon?"

Even a group of people in a "remote" place like Paldea recognized All Baimu; there would only be more people who knew him in Kalos.

From Coumarine City to now, he didn't know how many people had surrounded him.

Ogerpon hid behind him and looked up quietly, quite amazed at his popularity.

It already knew the meaning of time travel.

But it didn't expect that All Baimu was not only respected in the past, but also had such a high status in his own timeline!

"Everyone, please work hard in the competition; don't forget we are opponents."

All Baimu smiled and pushed aside the Trainers blocking his way after taking photos.

Today is pre-registration; the official opening won't be until tomorrow. He decided to take Ogerpon camping in the grassland on Route 12.

Having stayed in too many hotels and guesthouses, he occasionally wanted to embrace nature.

The most important thing is that there are no annoying little mosquitoes in the Pokémon world!

The only mosquito-type Pokémon is several times bigger than him, with muscles comparable to Machamp!

In the grassland.

All Baimu and his Pokémon set up camp.

Ogerpon ran back and forth to help, but unfortunately, it wasn't very skilled and its movements were clumsy, which caused it to help with a lot of trouble.

"Poni-o..."

It was a bit disappointed.

All Baimu laughed, "It's normal to be flustered the first time; you'll have experience after doing it a few more times!"

"Happy~"

Blissey nodded along.

It still remembered when the Trainer taught it to cook hand-in-hand; it wasn't much better back then.

Ogerpon was comforted; mainly because All Baimu laughed, which made it feel very at ease.

It meant that the trouble it helped with didn't cause any big problems.

It soon played with the Shiny Gengar and the Dragon siblings, and also collaborated with Mawile to film a short video.

It's hard to imagine that a week ago, Ogerpon was still living alone on the mountain.

All Baimu smiled and toasted the bright moon with fruit juice.

——

The day of the Battle Festival.

The news of the Regional Champion's visit spread like wildfire.

Many people initially thought it was Diantha and rushed to the competition venue crazily, only learning from others after they truly arrived that the visitor was actually the Orre Champion.

Orre Champion? What kind of countryside—

Well, the Orre region, which has been swiping the internet time and time again in recent years, is no longer an unknown marginal area.

All Baimu, who has been at the center of the storm many times, may not have the popularity foundation of other Champions, but his fame is no worse.

This is the promotional effect of the internet age.

However.

Even if it was the Orre Champion, the people who rushed over didn't see him.

All Baimu, wearing a mask and a baseball cap, silently started the breath-concealing mode; even if he walked past the crowd from the front with Ogerpon, he wouldn't be noticed.

What profound memory!

While waiting for the matching results to prepare for entry, a long-lost acquaintance appeared.

"Ash!"

He patted the other party's shoulder.

Ash turned his head blankly, but Pikachu recognized him at a glance and excitedly pounced on him.

"Pika-pi!"

"Long time no see, Pikachu; still so cute!"

All Baimu smiled and kneaded the electric mouse's fat cheeks.

Ash seemed to finally react and showed a surprised expression, "All Baimu—"

"Shh."

He covered Ash's mouth with one hand and said, "Many people here are looking for me; don't make a scene."

Ash nodded hurriedly.

Although he was still so big after so many years, he definitely had the necessary emotional intelligence.

Ash excitedly clenched his fist and said, "Are you also here to participate in the Battle Festival? Really looking forward to a battle with you!"

"Me too, and the Champion battle will definitely explode in popularity." All Baimu gave affirmation.

The gold content of the Alola Champion is not low, but Alola itself didn't promote it crazily like Drayton, leading to other regions still not knowing about Ash.

It's okay.

Ash knows many powerful Trainers!

All Baimu looked around and didn't find Goh; just when he felt strange, he realized that the other party was probably "gogogo"-ing outside.

Few people can play capturing Pokémon into a ball-throwing game; after all, the probability of the ball exploding is very high.

Goh is special; he basically doesn't explode the ball.

Mainly because the production team wants to save time and screen space for a single episode, and incidentally promote the money-grabbing mobile game "Pokémon GO."

"Let's work hard together!"

All Baimu shook hands with Ash, and each ran towards different arenas.

Their rankings were nearly 13,000 apart; it was still a bit difficult to meet, especially since Ash was about to enter the Great Class.

The Battle Festival is similar to the one he participated in in Wyndon, divided into four areas with four different fields.

All Baimu's first opponent was named Reiji.

"Regional Champion..."

He licked his lips seriously and nervously; although he had never participated in tournaments like the League, he considered his strength not bad.

Participating in the World Coronation Series this time was also to verify his strength.

Come on!

Let us present a hearty battle!

Reiji threw the Poké Ball forward!

One minute later.

"Hydro Pump."

Poof!!

The bright blue water column pushed Golurk's huge figure away, making it unable to control its retreat until its back hit the wall at the edge of the field.

Thud!

The sound of falling to the ground was shocking!

"Golurk is unable to battle, therefore the winner is All Baimu from Ferrum Town!" the Rotom Phone announced loudly.

Reiji knelt on the ground weakly, in a state of despair.

One-hit kill?

How could it be a one-hit kill?

In one minute, 20 seconds were for announcing the rules, 10 seconds for exchanging Pokémon, 10 seconds for looking at the opponent, and 10 seconds for closing the distance.

The last 10 seconds were the survival time for his Chimecho and Golurk.

Pain! Too painful!

All Baimu's ranking on the big screen instantly rose to the top, crossing more than 3,000 places after winning one match!

"Well done, the moves are getting more and more powerful."

He stroked Milotic's face, and Ogerpon, who was watching the battle, was also happy for it.

"Poni-o~"

"Mi-lo~"

Milotic rubbed against All Baimu and then lowered its head to rub against Ogerpon.

They quickly left the field, waiting for a new round of matching.

Outside the venue.

A petite figure stood in front of the door and said heartily, "Remember me? Champion!"

"Of course, Korrina, the current Gym Leader of the Cyllage Gym, how could I forget."

All Baimu smiled slightly.

Korrina, as the host of Cyllage City, also participated in the World Coronation Series herself.

Her current ranking was 1001, just a little bit away from advancing to the Great Class, but she happened to meet Ash.

The journey has many black spots, but Ash's strength is undeniable.

He defeated Korrina's Mienshao and Mega Lucario with only Gengar and Dragonite, which he had just captured, without using Z-Moves.

Enough to prove the gold content.
