He knows Pokémon better than me.

Then there were changes in other projects, more or less.

For example, the Ice Rock Monster, whose body was previously flattened and polished, did not flatten its body and lower limbs again to attract attention this time, and even its movement was very difficult.

Instead, it will perform in combination with the tundra bear, which was previously confined to a small display case, allowing the bear to sit on its back and parade around the aquarium.

After all, they are domesticated tundra bears, not wild jungle bullies. As long as they are properly trained, they will not harm people and there is absolutely no need to confine them to a small enclosure.

A polar bear was waving its paws on an "ice table," looking quite smug, and it attracted a lot of attention wherever it went, with cheers erupting from the crowd nearby.

"You're feeling much better!"

From a distance, Xiao Zhi smiled and nodded.

The original tundra bear had dry fur, and its "ice chin" was now just a short section.

Now it looks much more normal; the icy chin has become hard and sharp.

In addition, the snow moth, which was originally covered in artificial phosphorus powder, made its appearance this time without any burden, and chose to have a geometric snowflake hanging from the top.

As the snow moths perform their dance, the geometric snowflakes above blow out fine snow, like white snow powder.

While the alternative version is less flashy, it appears more natural and undoubtedly better suits the already beautiful and noble snow moth.

On another booth, the two fiercely competitive hairy crabs, who were originally locked in a passionate brawl, were no longer violently throwing ice hammer punches at each other.

Instead, they grabbed each other's hands in the center of the ice platform and began a passionate arm wrestling match.

"Competitive!"

"Competitive!"

Two large crabs arm wrestling—this bizarre scene attracted many onlookers.

As for the previous row of abstract princes, they can finally take off their thick ice headgear and no longer have to force themselves to imitate the ice-built geese.

As starter Pokémon from the Sinnoh region, where Grand Contests are popular.
So, at the suggestion of the beauty consultant, these princes began to try out all sorts of glamorous performances.

Use vortexes to create massive water flows, freeze them in mid-air, and then use steel wings to cleave and slice them apart.

Or it could spray out foamy light that collides with ice.

Although the Galatians prefer real, intense battles, they weren't too bored when they saw the spectacular performance for the first time.

Anyway, the effect is no less than pretending to be an ice goose and then standing there like a piece of wood.

"Oh, so Prince Bo has returned too?"

Ash also noticed that Prince Pidgey, which was at the end of the line, was the same one that he and Mr. Mime had rescued in Battle Cove.

"Bari~!"

The Mr. Mime chuckled, saying that it had taken some time to make a trip to Battle Bay and bring it back.

Ash secretly noted down Prince Pidgeon's spectacular performance. His Sinnoh friend must have accumulated a lot of creative ideas!
We can introduce her to the aquarium and provide remote technical support.

Of all the projects, Mei Rong's most important advice was...
Add more fossil Pokémon!

While the Ice Dragon and Ice Giant Dragon in the Carlos region are compatible, they are too rare to be worth the cost.

But fossil Pokémon native to Galar are much cheaper!
Since it hadn't become a trend yet, the Galar fossils were ignored. She had even obtained a Thunderbird Sea Beast for free from a fossil researcher from the town of Sussian—a creature stitched together from a fossil sea beast and a fossil bird, with a thick lower half of sea beast body and an extremely slender golden bird head on the upper half.

At the time, she was still skeptical; how could something be free?

The other party expressed a desire to use her status as a gym leader to help promote the Galar fossils.

However, she has never shown this controversial fossil Pokémon to the public before, and has kept it in the gym ever since.

In terms of combat, it's hard to say how effective it will be.
But if it's just for exhibitions and performances, then it's top-notch!
Currently, the aquarium only has one gill-tailed marine mammal, which is already quite popular.

The Ice-type Rathalos and Gillmar are both excellent Pokémon, perfectly suited to the performance environment of the Ice and Snow Aquarium.

Imagine five Thunderbirds sneezing on stage; their adorable appearance would surely make them star Pokémon here!

"Bari, bari".

The Mr. Mime nodded calmly, agreeing with Mei Rong's statement.

Most importantly, this is definitely the lowest-cost recruitment option!

Under the guise of promotion, you might just be able to get something for free!
Ash has a Dracovish, and Mr. Mime knows this very well.

Despite their stitched-together appearance and bizarre design, the Galar fossil Pokémon seems to suffer even from basic tasks like breathing and eating.
But in reality, they are no different from other Pokémon.

Especially for Pokémon like Gillfish, whose mouth is located on the top of its head, it is a perfect fit for visitors to feed them in aquariums. It doesn't even need to lift its head; it can eat directly while floating on the water.

As for the aquarium's biggest gimmick, the giant-scale performance...
Soon, Xiaozhi and his friends arrived at the largest stage inside. As the performance began, the huge audience seats were filled.

The same star Daruma took the stage again, working in conjunction with Froslass's Snow Concealment Illusion and Ice Puppet's psychic amplification to create an exaggerated Dynamax effect.

The subsequent attacks included Max Ice and Max Water.
Nothing has changed; even a casual gesture can elicit the loudest cheers from the audience.

There's nothing we can do about it; the locals just love watching this stuff.

"He really is a genius."

Ash couldn't help but sigh, thinking that whoever came up with the idea of ​​"Dynamax" was truly daring.

Since it's not exactly abusive or exploitative of Pokémon, and given the naturally outgoing Galarian Darmanitan's excitement at being the center of attention, it's eager to perform in more shows.

As a result, the project was preserved intact.

Anyway, it's already marked in small print outside, so it's not fraud; it's just that the consumer didn't see it.

"Bari."

Sitting next to him, the Mr. Mime stroked his chin thoughtfully.

But since it's always the same meaningless "Dynamaxing," viewers will eventually get tired of it.

It did offer a suggestion to the new curator, Shunshi, who was good at marketing: perhaps they could add a second "Dynamax" Pokémon and create a scene on stage where both sides use Dynamax moves and clash with each other.

This is the true strength of the Galatians!
However, this depends on how Xunshi and Meirong discuss things.

After several days of intense work, the matters back home are finally resolved. Mr. Mime doesn't want to stay here any longer; it's time to return to the Wild Area! (End of Chapter)
