He knows Pokémon better than me.

"A special ceremony?"

Xiao Zhi scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.

But this refers to the Firestorm Beast that looks like a green-haired creature. He had seen it at Ajin's place before.

This guy trained a second Cyndaquil, which evolved into a green-looking Typhlosion, a Fire/Ghost type, which is quite unique.

"Anyway, if you want to know more about the Seisei area, go check out the History Institute; there's a Seisei-themed exhibition there right now. Of course, you can wander around as well, but the Seisei Festival doesn't officially start until next week!"

Dorasena said with a smile, "This is only the pre-event and there are already so many people. Imagine how many more there will be when the official event starts!"
Her hometown is really going to become a sensation this time.

As the two most famous trainers who came from God and Town.

A few days ago, the town mayor asked her and Zhulan to put on an exhibition match at the opening of the Xicui Festival.

"Champion Bamboo Orchid. That's a bit difficult."

Although they were from the same hometown, Dorasena went to Carlos to develop her career after growing up and rarely came back, so she didn't have much interaction with Orchid.

Before leaving, Dorasena kindly pointed to a wall in the Pokémon Center where a poster was displayed.

"Until the official start of the Green Festival, any Pokémon that has been captured and has a Green theme can be released to accompany you, and all activities within the town will be free!"

The poster also displays many images of Pokémon with a greenish appearance, which is the type that has been discovered in current archaeological data.

This includes the three starter Pokémon, Arcanine, Zoroark, and others.
"Uh, are these the three starter families of Xi Cui?"

Ash leaned closer to the poster. The Grass-type starter was Decidueye from Alola, but it had a red-feathered, flat-headed form—he had seen this one at Hau before.

Next up is the Ghost-type Typhlosion, with alluring eyes and pink will-o'-the-wisps burning around its neck.

Finally, there's the Greatsword Demon from the Unova region, which is a darker color. Apart from its curved horns making it look more ferocious, it's pretty much the same as a normal Greatsword Demon.

"A real hodgepodge of regions."

"Ash, I remember you have a green Goodra, right?"

Dorasena spoke up, saying that she herself had a Goodra, and she was quite surprised when she saw Ash's Goodra with its own silver snail shell, so it left a deep impression on her.

Now I know, it turns out it's the shape of washing jade.

Although they are almost completely unseen in modern times, there are still a few trainers who are lucky enough to catch a Pokémon that looks like a green one.

"Woof, woof!"

For example, right now in the Pokémon Center, there's a trainer with a Growlithe with deep red fur covering its head and even its eyes—

It's a Galar-style Growlithe, and it's a Rock-type.

The presence of the accompanying figures immediately attracted a crowd of onlookers who exclaimed in surprise and took photos.

Are all activities free?

Ash's eyes lit up. Although he was essentially working as a publicity courier for the Green Festival, it wasn't bad to be paid for nothing!
After saying goodbye to Doraemon, Ash hurriedly went to the exchange device and switched back with Zoroark, who had just finished being his teacher.

After thinking about it, I also brought along the clinging dragon that looked like it had been washing its green leaves.

However, the latter dislikes the large populations of the West, so this propaganda work should be left to Zoroark.

"It's up to you!"

Ash throws a Poké Ball into an open space at the Pokémon Center.

boom!
The next moment, Zoroark reappeared, standing upright as a humanoid fox with short gray fur and fluffy white fur on its head that billowed and curled, with some even falling down from its forehead, making it look exceptionally cool.

The edges of the hair flickered like purple will-o'-the-wisps.

Its appearance immediately drew a crowd of visitors to the Pokémon Center, who all gathered around in amazement. These days, anything related to Green Zoroark is sure to turn heads here. "It's Green Zoroark! It's even cooler than the original!"

"It looks so dangerous!"

"Wait a minute, why does this look different from the one on the poster?"

The fur on the poster has cherry-red edges, but the one in front of us is a sinister deep purple.

This means that the Zoroark before us is not only a rare, bright green specimen, but also a shimmering one!

Click!

Click!

Flashlights lit up the surrounding area as tourists rushed to take photos.

Several cute girls tentatively approached, wanting to take a group photo, but they were also a little afraid of Zoroark.

"It's okay, feel free to take pictures!"

Ash waved and smiled, and Zoroark didn't refuse, but still maintained a cold expression.

The emerald-green-looking Zoroark was likely extremely ferocious.
But this is just a domesticated one, hatched from a Pokémon egg and no different from modern Pokémon.

"Speaking of the person who gave me the Zoroa Egg, Mr. Wang Luo..."

Xiao Zhi gave up his seat, walked to the side, and frowned in thought.

The man who looked very similar to Zhu Lan seemed to be from the Xicui region as well, and it seemed he was planning something dangerous at the time.

But it seems that after witnessing the madness of the Galactic Team leader, he became more lucid, and then went on a journey somewhere unknown.

"Do these jade washers possess the ability to travel between ancient and modern times?"

Ash raised an eyebrow. He was quite interested in the Green Country region, which was far superior to this kind of town that had been converted by humans.

However, the focus now is...
"Huh? How come Miss and Manyue have also lost contact?"

Ash was holding up his tri-fold Rotom and searching for a signal, while Zoroark was being photographed by crazy tourists.

They had agreed to meet in Shenhe Town, but just like Xiaoguang, they couldn't get through on the phone at all.

Even when I called Ahong, it was the same.

They originally came to find the missing Xiaoguang, but it turns out the trio has also gone missing?!
"strangeness."

So Xiaozhi put away his phone and went to ask the receptionist. Miss Joy seemed to remember the three of them.

I saw them a few days ago.

The main reason is that among the three, the aloof and elegant Plantina is too special. When you get close, there is a chill that blows over you, which makes you leave a deep impression.

That said, she does look quite a bit like that Coordinator named Dawn—Dawn is quite popular in the Sinnoh region these days.

When Ash continued to ask, Nurse Joy could only spread her hands, since she hadn't seen him since and assumed he had left.

Seeing this, Ash could only rent a room for the time being and then take Zoroark to wander around the town to see what was going on.

Waveguide power, activate!

A blue light shone in his eyes, and his aura spread out like ripples, searching for the auras of the three people.

He stroked his chin, thinking to himself:
"By the way, since the God and Town are about to hold the Green Washing Festival, I wonder if Miss Zhulan is currently in this town?"

Hmm, one more target searched using Aura Force. (End of Chapter)
