Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 595 From afar, O Sun, grant me strength!
"This guy can actually grow to this size!"

Archie, who was brought to Farns by Rayquaza, stood on a nearby stone peak and watched the fierce battle between Groudon and the Earth Demon from afar!
He didn't know what method the people of the gods had used. In any case, Groudon's size was now extremely exaggerated!
No, it's more accurate to say that the thing called the Earth Demon is even more exaggerated!

"It's not so much that he just barely caught up, but that he almost missed him! Team Magma's former scientist was an elite trainer after all. Although that girl and her team were chasing him, they couldn't catch him in one go."

"If what the people of Shenhe said is true, then this guy was already preparing to activate the machine in Farns! That makes sense, that guy has a flying mount, why would he obediently drive over? He could just fly over directly, right?"

"Jirachi's control device is right there at the scene of the battle. That earth monster may seem like it's not very bright, but it ate all the Pokémon around it!"

"Jirachi, Jirachi is missing. Was it eaten along with the device, or did we see the remains of the device?"

"However, the comet keeps twinkling, which proves that Jirachi is still calling out to the comet, but the energy that falls to the ground is intermittent."

"Don't get close! If you do, you'll be sucked in by the tentacles! Damn it!"

"Not thinking straight? Do you even have the right to say that? But if the monster didn't actively devour the Wishing Star, it probably wanted to get more energy from the comet too."

A hoarse, calm male voice came from Archie's Pokédex, and Archie immediately started cursing:
"Oh! You still have the nerve to say that? Team Lava deployed two executives, but they still haven't captured Butler or retrieved the regeneration device! Crimson Pine, is this your work result?"

Crimson Pine: [The regeneration device has been successfully retrieved! Although it's broken. Butler made more than one machine, and we encountered some obstacles at the beginning. The boy with Pikachu and the little girl initially thought we were there to attack. In short, the situation was too urgent, and intelligence wasn't transmitted in time.]

[Of course, during this process, Huoyan made another big mistake. Because she became interested in Xiaoyao and the boy with Pikachu, she suddenly said she wanted to analyze them, which resulted in wasting time. I will punish her.]

[Hey, that's just Fire Goose's personality; she always acts on her own. When Plan AZOTH failed, she even planned to detonate the rocket at the Green Ridge Space Center. And your team's Tide even cooperated with her, didn't he?]

"That guy Chao... he's all muscle, no brains!"

[By the way, over there, has Groudon already entered the battlefield? And who's controlling it this time?]

"Don't worry, the Divine Harmony People are far more powerful than the Glazed People and the Meteor People!" Shui Wutong laughed heartily, watching the fierce battle in the distance, the shockwaves almost shattering the surrounding stone peaks.
"That Divine Being gained Groudon's approval, and also received a warning: 'Spellcasters should not use the Orb without thorough preparation!'"

"Perhaps because Groudon was willing, the orb didn't begin to corrupt the user! In other words, the consumption of mental energy might be less, but it could also be because that God-King was too overpowered!"

"And that guy, I'd call him a 'water' expert! Compared to Wallace, the champion of the Crypt Citadel, this guy's Water-type Pokémon are ridiculously strong! Although he doesn't have six yet, I have to recommend that he consider catching a Sharpedo."

"This is the first time I've ever seen a water-type move with such high power unleashed under clear skies! It's truly an eye-opener!"

"After that, I don't know what that guy fed Groudon, but the battle is really intense right now! However, I didn't see Butler; he was probably eaten by the earth monsters!"

Crimson Pine: [I understand. If the intelligence is accurate, this terrifying thing will continuously drain the earth's life force. If the earth becomes barren, then humanity will lose its ideal home. This is what Butler doesn't understand.]

He's willing to do anything to avenge Team Lava. Perhaps sending Himura and Fire Goose to capture him was a mistake; it only fueled his rebellious and competitive spirit. And now, he has only himself to blame.

[In fact, this is also the fault and responsibility of our Lava Team; we shouldn't have recruited him in the first place.]

Archie chuckled, "Don't say things like that. Only Team Magma knows Butler best, and the Hoenn region is short-handed, which is why we asked you to have help in your past battles on land. We just need to figure out how to rescue Jirachi."

"That's right! I will never allow anyone to do such a thing to Jirachi!"

"Moreover, if it weren't for the millennium comet and the colossal meteorite, this battle that took place in Farns might have gone unnoticed by anyone."

"The battle on the ground has already begun; now it's the sky's turn. Although I really want to say that Kyogre is indispensable at a time like this, let's not let Kyogre cause any trouble."

How much longer until you arrive?

Crimson Pine: [In the past, to express our sincerity in transforming and repenting, we dismantled the large aerial vehicles we had built. Now it seems that was not a wise move.]

[However, even so, our Lava Team's technology level is superior to your Ocean Team's, so we've arrived!]

At the border of Farns, the Crimson Pine and Fire Village, along with the whistling Fire Geese, all stared intently at the light coming from the distance of Farns.

The blazing sun that illuminates the world turns night into day!
"Just like what happened in Liuli City, the entire sky has turned into intense sunlight, and the temperature is rising rapidly!"

"This is Groudon's power. It's still so shocking to see it for the second time. However, compared to its previous rampage, Groudon seems to have consciously restrained its power this time. Is it concentrating its energy to defeat its opponent?"

Crimson Pine commanded his subordinates, simultaneously blocking the oncoming storm and debris: "Quick! Project Azoth has been restarted! Prepare to storm the battlefield! Hmm! Is that a shockwave from two monsters colliding?! Groudon is even bigger than Primal Reversion!"

"As humans, we must do what we can! Leave the battle on the land to us, and we will reclaim Jirachi at all costs! Then, we will make a wish!"

"If we fail to do so, the history of Hoenn will come to an end! This time, it truly is Omega's arrival."

"Is it punishment, or redemption?"

Crimson Pine looked at the people behind him: "You are the key to this plan, the children who can let Jirachi hear its clear song and connect with its heart."

"The girl named Haruka, is there still no news about your companion, the new champion of Hoenn? Is the so-called 'Land of the Dragon Gods' really that far away? It's just some important ancient meteorites, and they still haven't been returned?"

"It seems like there's some kind of terrifying mechanism over there." Haruka (Yugi Haruka) stayed with the Team Magma members, standing with Flame Goose. As for the boy who was able to connect with Jirachi this time...
Because Max (Yugi) did not act with May (Yugi), after awakening the Star Crystal through his song, the person who understood him became Ash.

"Hmm, I don't quite understand. What's going on? Team Lava seemed like the enemy at first, but now it's like they're here to save the world."

“You’ve got it wrong, kid.” Crimson Pine pushed up his glasses. “Because of the delayed message and Fire Goose’s unauthorized actions, we failed to capture Butler. You heard the questions and accusations that guy made at the circus, didn’t you?”

Xiao Gang, the most learned and whose memory could not be erased, answered Chi Yansong's question:
"[Look! It's none other than Team Magma's leader, Lord Crimson Pine, personally graced the magic show with his presence! The great Butler is going to resurrect Groudon and then exact a thorough revenge on Team Magma. He'll make those of you who once mocked me pay the price!]"

Chi Yansong adjusted his glasses again: "Well, there's no need to repeat it in such a complete way."

"So, although we used to be an extremist organization, we are now under orders from the Hoenn Alliance to cooperate with them. It's normal that you've only just arrived in Hoenn and your impression of us is still based on the propaganda we made two years ago."

"Then, what about Butler Butler?" The blonde woman, dressed in a gown-like long dress, looked at Chi Yansong with concern. Chi Yansong's glasses reflected the light, and he crossed his arms like Commander Ikari.
“Miss Diane, just as you heard in the intelligence before.”

"Your lover, Butler, has been devoured by the earth monsters."

“Once the timing of the action and the small details differ, the final result will be greatly changed. Perhaps Butler would not have been devoured, but he was too impatient. When we appeared in front of him, anger had completely destroyed his reason.”

"If we want to restore everything to its original state, according to the information and instructions given by the people of the gods, we must make a wish upon Jirachi. Only those who are in tune with Jirachi's heart can make a wish, and the number of wishes is three!"

"If Jirachi's energy is completely drained and devoured by the earth monsters or the stars in the sky, then no one will be able to be resurrected!"

“The tragedy in the Hoenn region feels like something I’ve seen in a dream,” Crimson Pine rubbed his temples, then stared at Fire Goose: “Don’t make any unnecessary moves this time, Fire Goose! This is a critical moment concerning whether the world of humankind can continue to exist!”

Firebird, on the other hand, seemed to be in a good mood as it watched Groudon unleash its power: "Ah...someone interesting."

But after hearing Chi Yansong's reprimand, she immediately nodded helplessly: "Well, the analysis failed."

Hearing Huoyan's nonsensical reply, Chiyansong sighed and turned to look at another cadre:
"Himura, has the analysis of Butler's machine been completed?"

“It’s done!” The chubby, squinty-eyed Himura smiled calmly. “That [Regeneration Device] is very powerful, but its core structure is surprisingly simple. As long as the Origin Remains are reversed on the device, the device is turned on in reverse, and Jirachi releases its power again, the natural energy can be released from the monster.”

"With Jirachi's help, the Pokémon that were swallowed before could be fully restored. But this is just speculation."

"However, Jirachi's previous attack on the comet did not receive a response, so much of Jirachi's power has been depleted. The comet's power was probably absorbed by that thing in the sky, so once the device is retrieved and activated, Jirachi's power may be completely exhausted, and it may even be unable to make a wish."

"That device is probably still continuously supplying power to the earth demons and guiding the power of the millennium comet to descend, but the comet's light..."

"Alright! That's all you need to do." Crimson Pine waved its hand. "Make sure it retains enough energy to fulfill the wish. Let the more professional people handle the matters in the sky."

"If Rayquaza can defeat that thing, the power of the Millennium Comet will naturally return to Jirachi. However, if it fails, then Jirachi will have to be sent into space."

"Gym leaders in various cities are on guard, preventing the meteorite from falling, and at the same time reassuring people. However, what happened in Farns was quite sudden."

"If Groudon keeps fighting like this, Farns will be engulfed in flames!"

"Our Lava Team once obtained special technology from Devon Corporation. The [Infinite Drill] used on Abyss One is a drill driven by ∞ energy, which allows us to directly approach the control device of Kirachi from underground!"

"However, we're not good at Flying-type Pokémon. That device is in mid-air, and it seems that all the powerful Pokémon in the vicinity have been swallowed up. So, boys and girls, I'm leaving this to you!"

Unlike the Magma Team in the special episode, each member has a Swellow, which are all large individuals capable of carrying people and flying.

In the game, Team Magma only has Zubat and Golbat as their Flying Pokémon, and if you really want to include them, Koffing could also be one.
Well, in high temperature and high pressure environments, gas bombs are extremely fragile and can explode at the slightest touch, so it's best not to release them under such circumstances.

Zubats and Papilioni are designed to hate sunlight because their skin is so thin that they will get sunburned if exposed to sunlight.
Team Magma is supposed to be trying to control Groudon, but their Pokémon are afraid of light, and some even explode in high temperatures?!
From an ecological perspective, it's practically a suicide squad!

"I heard you. Did you hear me?"

May suddenly covered her head, her gaze fixed on the direction where Groudon and the Earth-type monster were fighting, and Ash beside her had the same reaction:
"The sound of stars!"

Because Kacchan didn't show up, he was still shopping on Route 1 in Unwhite Town.
The person who heard the "Voice of the Stars" became Ash Ketchum!
"Yes, those are Ash, May, and Brock!"

Lightmoss has inherited vision from Wind and Dew. Pilots have very strong eyesight and can see what is happening and what people and things appear in the distance, even from a great distance. Of course, they cannot see without actively looking, since it is just vision and not a sense.

Farsightedness also has a drawback: sometimes you tend to overlook things that are too close to you.

"Ash heard the Voice of the Stars. May is the Investigator and can sing lullabies, so she is the Awakener. Looking at it this way, Brock seems like a freebie. But isn't Brock always like this? In the movie, he mainly plays the role of starting the monster and guiding it."

Brock's greatest role is that without him, there would be no theatrical release, and without the theatrical release, there would be no corresponding game content. In essence, Brock is the embodiment of Arceus.
Of course, in the various theatrical versions, Brock often plays the role of a temporary damage dealer. After all, as a gym leader, he is quite strong and, like Ash, can use Agility. He can take a huge explosion head-on without getting hurt, making him a true "Super Dark Grey".

However, in the several theatrical films of the AG era, Brock was basically relegated to a supporting role, but Ash was in a similar position. Strictly speaking, the Wishing Star and Visitor movies weren't really related to Ash.

The focus of this period is the latter two series, one of which is the crucial "Aura Warrior" that laid the foundation for Ash's character traits!
The Wishing Star event takes place before episode 28 of the main series. Ash doesn't have any strong Pokémon at the time, and his team is still mostly baby Pokémon. It's impossible to expect him to deal damage, since Ash resets his stats and leaves his older Pokémon in foster care wherever he goes.

Therefore, in the Wishing Star movie, the powerful Pokémon that partners with Ash is Flygon, a wild Pokémon from the Farns region, with a level of 55!

"However, this time without the help of Flygon, Absol, and Salamence, Butler was swallowed up before he could even realize his mistake, while Diane was unharmed under the protection of Team Magma, which was the complete opposite of what happened."

"However, even without powerful wild Pokémon to assist us, but..."

While Glow Moss was being held by Aerodactyl and directed in the air, Ash and May sensed Jirachi's location, so Team Magma's excavators had already started working!

Using a super drill powered by infinite energy, digging a hole in Farns is a piece of cake! It's even faster than a Pokémon's Dig move! Because during the digging process, you'll encounter hard rocks that block your way, and unless you have a Pokémon like Rhyperior with its own drill, digging would be extremely difficult.

However, the machine will not feel pain or discomfort; its drill bit, made of a powerful alloy, is indestructible!
Ash's expression was serious: "They said we need to get close to the target location and then use a flying Pokémon, but all I have is Taillow. Taillow alone can't take anyone up there."

Although Ash looked cool riding Flygon and giving a thumbs-up in this theater, he's a bit out of sorts now that he's missing his partner.

"I do have a Swellow!" May was holding the evolved form of the Pokémon in her hand. It was one of her partners in the game team. She had two Pokémon that could fly: a Swellow and a Claydol. The latter would only be available when she reached the Battle House.

Himura: "Townswing and Swellow? No, they're not big enough. Neither of them is capable of carrying people in flight. Do you have any Psychic or Dragon-type Pokémon?"

Xiao Zhi: "This."

"No! I do!" Brock clapped his hands and looked at Ash: "Do you still have that flute with you?"

"The Flute of Infinity, which I obtained in Odomarra!"

"Speaking of which, isn't the Hoenn region the home of Latios and Latias? Last time, when the great tsunami occurred in Alto Marley, it was the Hoenn Pokémon that came to our aid. This time shouldn't be a problem either!"

"There's still plenty of time. Groudon is fighting that monster, so the power of legendary Pokémon doesn't seem to be exhausted so easily!"

Ash: "Oh! So that's one of his tricks. Brock is truly something else!"

"That's the Infinity Flute?!" May was shocked when she saw the flute Ash pulled out!
Because of that flute, her best friend Xiaoyou also has one!
May: "How do you have this?! It's an ancient flute that can summon an infinite number of Pokémon!"

"You solemnly pulled out the legendary item. Who exactly are you?!"

Because May and Ash have no connection whatsoever and don't know each other, this chance encounter made them friends, but for May, this boy from faraway Pallet Town still has many mysteries surrounding him.

He's impulsive and reckless, but sometimes he can say philosophical things. As for his strength, I had a little sparring session with him when we met. Although he wasn't strong, Xiaoyao could tell that it was definitely a newly trained team, so it's normal for him to be weak.

"This? This is something I got in the Water City in the southern part of the Johto region. It seems to have been made by a craftsman I knew before."

Ash, holding his flute, said, "I remember the legend of Water Seven. It's about the Pokémon Latios and Latias that traveled from a small island in the southern part of the Hoenn region to the Johto region."

“This flute of mine is the flute that calls Latias.”

After all, it hasn't been long since the Water City incident, and Ash's amnesia isn't severe yet. Brock just gave him a little reminder and he immediately remembered!

"It is said that as long as you blow the flute..."

May's expression was serious: "As long as the flute is played, no matter where the flutist is, countless Pokémon will immediately come!" "Only my companion May has this flute. It was obtained from Mr. Steven and is a legendary item from the Hoenn region!"

"Phew, seeing this flute reminds me of something. Although we both started from Weibai Town, the gap between us is widening. He performed exceptionally well in the incident two years ago, but..."

“From that time on, it seems like we were no longer on the same level. In order to catch up with him, I kept working hard and training. Thinking about it this way may seem a bit pathetic, but actually I am not sad.”

Xiao You also said something like that:

Haruka is a cheerful and energetic person. However, she becomes very quiet when gazing at the starry sky.

Her eyes sparkled whenever a shooting star streaked across the sky. I thought her eyes were as beautiful as stars!

Every time you become stronger, a certain emotion wells up inside me.

I think that was probably anxiety.

Before, all I wanted was to surpass Master Qianli. But now, I've come to care about you a lot.

Xiaoyao: "Now that he's not in this area, I have to protect this land in his place!"

"Ash, please play the Infinity Flute! Although you said you only want to summon Latias, I remember that as long as you have a bond with an Infinity Pokémon, you can summon the other Latios as well!"

"I never imagined you were also someone who forged a bond with Latias. Looking at you is like seeing Yu from two years ago. You said you participated in the Johto League tournament; someone like you must have already..."

"Oh, that!" Ash said a little embarrassedly, "My growth is far from enough. I only made it to the semifinals of the Silver Conference in the Johto League. Also, when I first participated in the Kanto region tournament, there were still many things I didn't know."

"By the time of the Silver Conference, I felt I had matured a bit, and I also battled a trainer from the Hoenn region. Yes, he used the same Pokémon as you, Blaziken!"

The tournament champion is determined not only by strength but also by luck. For Ash Ketchum, who experienced the "Decisive Intelligence" incident at Mt. Azusa, his combat strength and intuition are clearly stronger.

The four finalists were actually qualified to win the championship; they just fell short by a hair's breadth.
Of course, the quality of the event itself and the uneven quality of the participants are also major problems. Therefore, there is a huge difference between the champion of the event and the champion in the true sense.

May: "Really? Then you'll be participating in the Hoenn region's Hoenn ...

"However, I would recommend you take on the challenge of the 'Road to Champions'. The tournament champion is just a starting point and doesn't mean anything. Only those who pass the trials of the Road to Champions are qualified to face the Four Heavenly Kings and the true champions."

"There are three champions in Hoenn right now!"

Sure enough, Ash got excited when it came to battles. However, Ash's personality and intelligence from the AG era, combined with the terrain aura buff from the movie, prevented him from doing anything impulsive or nonsensical. Instead, he became very reliable!

And so, he played the Flute of Infinity!
In the southern part of the Johto region, on the sea of ​​Odomare, Latios of the Water City, who was already vaguely uneasy due to the earth-shaking tremors caused by the Buried Tower, immediately looked at his sister.

Latias had already heard the boy's call.

Although his sister had secretly gone to help him participate in the tournament and was scolded by him when she came back, Latios felt that it wasn't so bad, as it allowed her to see a wider world and more of humanity.

It was only annoyed that its sister had run out without permission, but this time it was different.

Whether it was the beam of light shooting into the sky from the direction of the Seven Islands or the violent tremors in the western sea, both foreshadowed some danger that might occur at the border between Johto and Hoenn. This time, however, Latios did not see the two that would Mega Evolve.

Where did they go?

Something terrible must have happened. Although we are the guardians of Odomarra, we owe that boy a great debt of gratitude, and since the Flute of Infinity has already signed the contract, there is no reason for us to break it.

Because of the last time the Heart Drops were transported.

This led to a new wave of infinite Pokémon settling in Odormare.

This is actually something that was bound to happen at the end of the original theatrical version.

The Heart Drop attracts countless Pokémon because the heavenly souls of the same kind are calling to each other.

Latias, take the "stone" they gave you before!

Stones, that's right! They are the special stones given by those two on the southern island. As long as you carry the stone and have someone who can convey your feelings and form a bond with you, you can achieve the same [Super Evolution] as those two!
Although they said at the time that they and their sister were too young to control the power and that it would lead to self-destruction, they still found new stones elsewhere and gave them to themselves and their sister out of consideration for the emergency.

But after that, they disappeared without a trace.

This is theoretically impossible because, according to ecological characteristics, even if a companion disappears without a trace, one still possesses a spiritual connection and can therefore know the companion's location and mood.

But now, there is nothing.

Latias hurriedly tucked the two stones into his pocket and then urged his brother repeatedly!

Let's go! We're setting off right now, Xiao Zhi is calling me!
Latias was extremely anxious as she thought this, and in that moment, her body began to faintly emit light!
Accelerate, accelerate, super-accelerate!
While flying, you need to continuously increase your speed. There is still a long waterway to travel to reach the Hoenn region. Without "Godspeed", it is almost impossible to reach that distant continent in one go.

However, Latios felt that perhaps it was just his imagination, or perhaps his training over this period of time had been effective.

My sister and I have both improved our speed significantly!
If it folds its forelimbs to fly, its speed can surpass that of a jet aircraft!

[The flight from south of Johto to Hoenn takes approximately two hours under normal conditions!]

However, the sound of the Infinity Flute will further enhance our speed because we can directly locate our target!

North of Waterway 131, the Pillar of the Sky.

This place was built by the Meteor People to worship Rayquaza. It is guarded and sealed by the Lapis Lazuli People. The murals inside the tower record all the history of Rayquaza and the Hoenn region from 3000 to 2000 years ago.

The top of the Sky Pillar almost pierces the clouds, and because it is located on a mountain island in the sea, it is always surrounded by clouds and mist.

In another universe, this tower is 50 stories high, and even without doing anything, just climbing to the top is an extremely physically demanding task.

At its top is the altar for summoning dragons.

The green flames burned fiercely. Rayquaza, who had been forcibly transferred from the Fire region, was seeing such a scene for the first time and immediately fell silent.

The country boy was a little timid as he entered the city for the first time.

However, the once somewhat ferocious creature now understands the seriousness of the situation.

The person who lived in this place, or rather, the person who once existed here, seemed to be many times stronger than himself.

However, even such a powerful Pokémon needs to come and find me as a candidate?

Super evolution and all that? What is that? Who would understand that?
Higana holds the keystone in her hand:

"It has no triangular organs and has never undergone super evolution."

"The people of Shenhe are right. Only the Dragon God is special because it once swallowed a seven-colored meteorite. That happened a thousand years ago. The other Dragon Gods did not obtain a special meteorite, so they could not obtain that organ."

"Therefore, the triangular organ was created to digest the power of that meteorite, as well as something that came with people's prayers."

“However, since the Dragon God of yesteryear could obtain that power overnight, then you can do it too.”

There aren't many people who can Mega Evolve right now. Even after searching the entire Hoenn region and finding all the top players who have emerged in the last two years, I've only managed to collect a dozen or so Key Stones.

Seven of them were given to the Dragon God, and five were given to Rayquaza.

But the latter clearly didn't know how to use these things.

This is what happens when a version is outdated.
"Lord Dragon God, you have already flown into space. I see a green light appearing in the sky above the Hoenn region. So, the next ceremony is about to begin."

"If the Dragon God fails, I will ride you to the universe. Surrounded by people and praying for you, you will surely inherit the Dragon God's power and gain the ability to evolve super."

Higana looked at the somewhat flustered and nervous Phileleli sitting in front of her: "I heard that you killed a Deoxys in the Icefield four years ago."

"Although that guy doesn't seem to be dead, but just in a long period of slumber, this proves that you are qualified to fight against aliens."

Felile sat there with an embarrassed expression.

Uh... actually, we were completely suppressed that time. It was only because the alien was curiously staring at the ice surface that it surfaced from the water, unleashed a charged Hyper Beam, and managed to ambush and defeat it.
But then you suddenly tell me to go fight a super alien with a level of [???]?
If I fight Belial, will I win?
Why don't you find more Rayquaza? You could win that way!
"Even if we wanted to find more Rayquaza, are there really that many Rayquaza?"

"You are the second individual we can find, so all our hopes are on you."

"Of course, I'm not forcing you into a fight to the death."

Higana's expression turned very dejected: "Even if we look very similar, you are not the Dragon God after all. You have no connection with us Meteor People. Therefore, even if you are defeated, you can abandon me and run away on your own."

"For you, living in the atmosphere, it wouldn't matter if the ground were completely destroyed, although that would be very irresponsible to the people on Earth, but..."

"By then, they would have exhausted all their options."

"Although I've heard that there are legendary Pokémon in other regions, and even some that are no weaker than the Dragon God, we are now facing a monster that has obtained the power of the Millennium Comet. Therefore, failure is acceptable."

"My mission is to show you what super evolution is, and then accompany you into space. By then, the lives of the Meteor Clan will be lost."

Although Devon Corporation had prepared spacesuits, Higana did not want to wear them.

Because she had long been prepared to face death, so that she could meet her dearest friend in the other world. The moment of their reunion was approaching.

"I had someone I loved very much, but she is no longer in this world."

"Therefore, my last remaining thought for this world ends here: to fulfill the mission of the Meteor People, to fulfill her mission."

"Sorry, I just said you could escape or that you were out of options. We will definitely not let that happen!"

"Because I've already heard about the Wishing Star, I never imagined that Water Phoenix would make such a wish when she was so young. If that was also the protection of the Millennium Star, then..."

"We will win."

The sun gradually rose on the horizon, and a ray of dawn shone on Hoenn. Or perhaps it was the sunlight from Farns, but in any case, the Sky Pillar was now illuminated.

The fleeting stars vanished, as if a predetermined fate was about to be broken. This relatively weak Rayquaza, who once slew aliens on the icy plains and returned to the Temple of Fire, and who will also appear in the upcoming theatrical film "The Visitor of the Sky,"...
It sensed Higana's feelings, pure and innocent. Even its own wild and unruly nature required it to calm down and feel the warning from its biological instincts that if it remained restless, it would never have such an opportunity again.

Moreover, there are humans so deeply bound to Rayquaza! This is even better than the treatment at the Temple of Fylene!

In that case.

Starting today, I declare that on Super Rayquaza's side, there is only one Crown Prince!
"Gah! Aaaaah!"

So, O sun, give me strength!

Lov City, northeastern part of the Hoenn region!
It's a treetop city nestled between Violet City and Water Lily City, a place where nature plays in harmony! Its unique cultural landscape is unparalleled in the world!
To the west are Route 119 and the Weather Institute, and to the east are Route 120 and the Hunting Grounds.

The Gym Leader of Lilycove City is none other than Nakia, an expert in Flying-type moves!
The Pokémon Sky Circle Tournament originated in Yokoto Town, a village known for its Flying-type Pokémon. Located in the northwest of Lilycove City, it features a canyon landscape and is home to people who uphold this tradition.

However, this competition is special, as it is the first competition to be held truly at high altitude. However, the gym leaders all know the truth behind it.

"Dawn has risen. The high-altitude competition is actually a prayer and celebration ceremony dedicated to Rayquaza."

Naki took a deep breath. As the Gym Leader of Lilycove City, she had been entrusted with the work related to the Sky Arena.

In order to obtain the treasures of the sea, skilled pilots from different regions came, but most of them were local pilots from Hoenn. There were quite a few of them.

Secret base masters, bird breeders, battle experts, psychics, sky trainers, and bird messengers soaring across the world!

"Everyone, listen up! The rules of this competition are that Pokémon will battle in the air, competing to grab rings hanging at specific locations. The contestant who hangs enough rings on the hook at the finish line will win!"

"The competition will take place in the eastern part of the Hoenn region [High Altitude]! Participate in aerial battles with a heart full of prayers, for it is said that the champion will have any wish granted on the night the Millennium Comet appears, before the seventh night arrives!"

"This is the legend of the Hoenn region, the Wishing Star of the Seven Nights!"

"Please send people's wishes to the heavens!"

　PS: There will probably be another chapter later.
