Chapter 302

After Xiang Qingyu reached out to take this "Rayquaza self-used 99 new" Mega Stone, Rayquaza seemed to have completed its mission, flew back to the sky without looking back, and soon disappeared into the clouds.

Describing it as coming and going without a trace is most appropriate.

The whole audience hadn't recovered from the shock of Rayquaza's appearance, but Elite Four member Drake, who didn't know when he appeared behind Xiang Qingyu, suddenly spoke:

"Mr. Xiang Qingyu, this is an evolution stone currently only discovered in the Kalos and Hoenn regions."

"It seems that it should be your Bagon's belief that got Rayquaza's approval, so it sent this gift, right?"

Drake finished, revealing a look of emotion.

It is said that there is indeed such a small group of extremely lucky humans who have the opportunity to get the favor of legendary Pokémon.

For example, the "Ho-Oh Hero" who appears once in a few decades on the Indigo Plateau, or the "Meteor People" who have an indissoluble bond with Rayquaza in the Hoenn legend.

I didn't expect that there would be such a Shiny Rayquaza in the Paldea region, and this young Gym Leader Xiang Qingyu also received a gift from it.

Being able to witness a powerful Rayquaza once, Drake felt that this trip to Paldea was not in vain.

Playing with the Salamence evolution stone in his hand, which felt slippery and seemed a bit sticky, Xiang Qingyu was stunned for a moment, then asked:

"But this Bagon was only born three days ago; is it a bit too early to send me a Salamence evolution stone now..."

As a late-blooming Pokémon, it is estimated that Bagon will need a very long time to evolve.

I can't use this thing right now!

"No, this evolution stone from Rayquaza is very special, completely different from what we dug out underground."

Drake shook his head, his gaze looking at the evolution stone in Xiang Qingyu's hand.

"Normally, the evolution stones we can get nowadays probably all come from a product left over after a meteorite crisis that almost destroyed the world a thousand years ago."

As a transmigrator familiar with the plots of all generations, Xiang Qingyu naturally heard that this content is closely related to the main plot of the Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire series.

About every thousand years, Hoenn will experience a meteorite crisis.

And the last two recorded meteorite impact events were finally resolved by Rayquaza.

This is also the fundamental reason why it is honored as the "Sky Guardian" by Hoenn people.

Compared to Kyogre and Groudon, it is the one that really did the work...

While Xiang Qingyu was recalling, Drake quickly spoke again:

"After being buried underground for a thousand years, although these mysterious meteorites from the universe still have the ability to let specific Pokémon break through the limit and achieve theoretically impossible Mega Evolution, the power in them also gradually dissipated with time."

"But I can feel that in this evolution stone in your hand, it seems that it still contains that energy from outside the universe."

Drake finished, taking out an evolution stone from his pocket that was similar in color but completely different in luster.

"And..., it is said that there is a peculiar tissue called the Mikado Organ in Rayquaza's body, which has a certain connection with the source of Mega Evolution; maybe this evolution stone has also been activated by Rayquaza."

Comparing the two evolution stones, Xiang Qingyu could clearly see that the one in his hand was more shining, and even flickered like breathing.

"This..."
