Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 609 A Future Devied by History, "For a Bright Future for Galar and Armia"

Becoming the seventh assessor in the Hoenn region—the number seven is quite intriguing.
Moreover, there's always a sense of déjà vu that says, "From today onwards, you are the Hokage."

As Guangtai thought this, she didn't know that the girl she remembered felt joy and happiness.

Because the evaluator exam is not easy to pass. Like many professions, it is not difficult to get started, but to master it or even become a top-level person requires a long period of training and learning.

As for the girl with the memories, she has met all kinds of people, not to mention that she knows several champions from Hoenn.

The training methods for champions are unique. Generally speaking, it's not possible to simply copy their methods and expect other trainers to reach the same or even similar levels as the champions. If it were that easy, that would be great.

There are many people who abandon their own Pokémon in pursuit of power, or even go on to capture legendary Pokémon.

Of course, such people often don't end up with a good outcome.

Because champions have unique understandings of breeding, their breeding methods cannot be used as the evaluation criteria.

Therefore, the champion is the champion, and the judge is the judge.

The girl recalled: "The so-called evaluators and top breeders are people who can bring out the talents and power of any Pokémon to an outstanding degree, no matter what the circumstances."

"People at this level should be able to achieve [universality] in at least one attribute aspect when it comes to Pokémon training."

All attributes and five cultivation results passed perfectly.

Just as I expected, without the slightest deviation!
Therefore, this is the universally applicable training method that this new champion judge possesses!

"That's what you've been looking for. You passed the exam. Thank you, examiners."

"Next, I'll teach you what you need: [Extreme Training], a [special training method] from ancient times that once circulated in the Alola region. Of course, as we agreed, there must be [reward]."

The girl smiled and nodded, releasing her Pokémon.

It was a big-mouthed doll that matched her outfit perfectly, but it was very small in size.

Mawile, deceiving Pokémon.

She has a yellow, doll-like body and looks like a human little girl, but her so-called "ponytail" is actually her huge jaw, which is formed from steel horns.

It uses its docile appearance to lull its opponents into a false sense of security, then suddenly turns and bites them with its massive jaws. Cunning and terrifying, once it bites, it will never let go; it can even bite through I-beams. Because there are no taste buds in the mandibles at the back of its head, it uses that space to eat things it doesn't like.

Memories of a Girl:

"This is my Mawile, which looks weaker than its kind. She used to be a Pokémon that was abandoned because she was too weak."

“After my nurturing and care, she became strong.”

"However, although her efforts have improved all her abilities, some of her innate defects still seem to remain."

"Possesses remarkable physical strength and defense, but only has average special abilities, and may not be good at attack and speed."

【Remarkable】—This individual scored 30.

[So-so] - Individuals in this category range from 1 to 15.

The phrase "may not work" refers to an individual value of 0.

“Chido.” Mawile seemed a little unhappy. But Lightmoy read her mind, causing the Pokémon to pause slightly as it listened to the stranger's assessment:

Lightmoss: "I heard her voice. Her inherent weakness in some abilities means that she has to pay a higher price in training than other Pokémon. This is the reason why it is twice the effort for half the result."

"However, even though innate individual stats are a natural strength, as you said, in order to ensure that all Pokémon are treated equally by their trainers and their potential is fully developed."

"Unleashing one's potential is the ultimate ability one can reach by raising one's innate abilities to their highest level without altering individual stats!"

"Thus, the line between weak Pokémon and strong Pokémon will become blurred. From then on, the training and effort of this Pokémon will be rewarded tenfold."

"As long as you keep training, you will discover more and more of your potential. Therefore, the hard work of the past will eventually bear fruit."

"Chido?" Big Mouth Kid tilted his head, blinked, and looked curious. Although he didn't know what Guangtai's evaluation meant, it seemed to be able to help him improve his talent. Was there really such a thing?

Light Moss was thinking.

Moreover, the idea of ​​developing potential is just like that of Namek Elder or Old Kaioshin!

Although there are still many Pokémon with poorly distributed abilities and types, no matter what, if you maximize their individual stats, they will definitely be able to participate in battles.

Moreover, in the Pokémon world, the so-called "strength-oriented" players often lose to the "true love" players. After a long period of training and battles, the strength and speed of some Pokémon may even change, and these changes are even written into their ecological characteristics.

As for games, we can't possibly create separate models and special poses for every rotten fish and shrimp on the street to differentiate them, can we? We don't have that much memory!

Furthermore, the girl's style of dress is very similar to that of the kimono-clad girls at the Aromatherapy Center in the Carlos region. In fact, she looks almost exactly like one of the four kimono-clad girls, [Shione].

However, they are not the same character in the story; perhaps she is the other person's older sister or something?
Accompanied by an elegant dance of the wind, Miss Skirt twirls onto the stage!
Adam: "Huh? A Pokémon I've never seen before? Could this be the very elegant ancient dancer that Steven was talking about?"

"Is this what they call the influence of 'regional morphology' and 'environment,' leading to changes in Pokémon?"

Guangtai: "A long time ago, people had difficulty distinguishing between dance and martial arts. In terms of classifying moves, dance movements have never been considered a correct type of move."

"However, as the charm of a certain hot southern region gradually spreads throughout the world, I think that [dance moves] should be established soon."

"At the academic research conference that will be held soon."

If no one brings it up, then surely someone will, right?

Generally speaking, you need to reach level 50 or 100 to participate in Extreme Training. However, the "Struggle Level" in the Legend of Arceus can be seen as the original version of Extreme Training, which does not have any restrictions.

Lightmoss: "Come on, first take this giant ball, then use the corresponding move according to my method. Evaluation: [Trained]!"

"However, this special training only improves potential ability values, without changing innate individual values, so it will not affect individual value inheritance and awakened power calculation! Of course, this part is a research topic for the doctoral students."

In other words, the strength you develop through training cannot be passed on to your offspring.

If you're a breeder, it's normal to pursue Pokémon with 6IVs (six perfect IVs) or 5IVs (five perfect IVs).

But for trainers, who are not professional egg incubators, they don't need to worry about such things.

Furthermore, there are still many unclear aspects to Dr. Elm's understanding of genetics, and he is continuing his research. This part of the game is quite complex, and there are even special cases like linked inheritance, where it is impossible to draw conclusions without careful observation of several generations of offspring.

The girl in the memory: "Shall we start now? It sounds like I can improve immediately?"

Lightmoss: "Extreme training is a training mode that breaks through one's own limitations and fully develops one's potential. For some Pokémon, it may take some time to improve their full strength, but if it is just about teaching some techniques and improving one or two abilities, it is no problem at all."

"After all, what you need isn't a complete improvement, but just some skill enhancements."

"Furthermore, Mawile, as a Pokémon, possesses high potential power. [Strength Claw] cannot be weakened; [Intimidate] lowers the opponent's attack power; [Force] sacrifices additional effects in exchange for higher move power."

"You know about Mega Evolution, right? It's a secret that has been passed down in Hoenn for thousands of years, and it's also been discovered and studied in the Kalos region recently. It's called 'evolution beyond evolution,' which means further unleashing the potential of a Pokémon."

Do you know what Mawile's ability will become after Mega Evolution?

"That's the [Hercules]!"

Research on various Mega Pokémon is undoubtedly in its early stages. After all, there are far more people in the Hoenn region who can Mega Evolve than in Kalos, and they still suffer from the fact that XY is a half-finished product.

Even Alain, who appears as a cameo in the anime, is someone Steven met many years ago in the game world, and is not from the same era as Ash. Naturally, he wouldn't have any connection with villainous organizations like Team Flare, and is most likely in his early twenties now, the same age as Steven.

Therefore, the black Charizard has become a legend. However, Red will soon obtain two Mega Stones, and his Charizard will be able to use both X and Y forms.

"The first thing to improve is..." Looking at the slightly panicked look on Big Mouth's face as he held the giant ball, Guangtai looked at Miss Skirt.

Miss Washing Green Skirt danced a mesmerizing dance, releasing an inspiring floral fragrance that boosted Big Mouth Baby's confidence! And...
The power has increased!
"Chido?!"

What incredible power! How is this possible? Such immense power!

"【Find a Partner】." Lightmoss: "Dance to a magical rhythm. Make your opponent mimic your movements, thus making them have the same traits."

"My Miss Skirt's ability is [Vitality], which gives her a base Attack stat of 157!"

"Feel this power! For the next few hours, your usable moves will be limited to [1]! After repeated near-death experiences and resurrections, your combat power will rapidly increase!"

Watching the girl begin her studies, Adam stroked his beard and greeted the mixed-celebrity:

"As a top breeder, there are always special training methods, and at least one attribute can be trained equally, with extreme special training and potential development. This is the skill of the seventh assessor."

The celebrity grandfather stroked his beard: "In that case, there will be fewer cases of people abandoning their Pokémon in the future. Even famous people have separated from or even abandoned their companions because they were too weak."

"The younger the person, the more immature they are. Love can never overcome numbers. But if the extreme training can be passed down, everything will be different."

"As expected of the successor of the stars."

"The ancient paradise of the King of Alola Island."

Adam: "Different regions have different training and development methods. In the Johto region, there seems to be a saying that humans and Pokémon share life equally, while in Hoenn, it's about wishes and bonds. To be honest, compared to the visible way of getting stronger through extreme training, both sharing life equally and making wishes are a bit more ethereal."

"Young people are full of passion and energy, but they are prone to retreat and confusion when they encounter setbacks. This is a common trait among them. Only those with courage can forge ahead."

"So, in order to pass on this training method, we need to prepare a reward. Although we don't know what the [Golden Crown] is, fortunately, we can use something else as a substitute."

Grandpa, a celebrity: "Golden crown... Hmm, I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before. Is it a limited-edition rare bottle cap or something?"

Adam was taken aback, then burst into laughter:

"Bottle caps? You mean the kind that bottle cap collectors collect? How is it possible to get this kind of training method by trading bottle caps?"

"Hmm," Adam said, but then he began to think about it carefully.

Because it's so abstract, it actually feels a bit real.

"However, I'm not going to look for the reward that's prepared in the bottle cap. For a top breeder, what could be more valuable than the [Pokémon Cube Secret Recipe]?"

Adam took out a notebook from his pocket: "Grandpa, do you know about the undetermined [content] between Pokémon Cubes?"

The expert on mixing: "Deliciousness is between [flavor] and [smoothness]? However, deliciousness is subjective, and not all Pokémon are willing to have the taste of berries. In mixing, they will cancel each other out."

Adam smiled with his eyes closed: "Making Pokémon cubes that all Pokémon can accept, and maximizing the deliciousness, is the secret I, as a breeder, possess!"

"Machine-made blocks have their limits; data cannot be quantified. However, traditional handmade blocks can contain additional information, namely, love."

"It is said that the famous curry rice in the Galar region is made with lots of love, which is why it is so delicious."

The celebrity grandfather was taken aback: "What is that? That thing is so strange!"

“Of course, there’s more to it,” Adam smiled. “I’ve been telling him about it since I was teaching Michael a long time ago.”

"Gaze at the spring, concentrate on the spring in front of you, and calm down your mind and body that have been excited by the special training. Slowly watch the ripples on the water and let your mind become empty."

"After witnessing that Lucario's battle, I realized it was the first time I'd ever seen something so powerful—it went beyond any of my training—maintaining mental fortitude and composure while launching a fierce attack."

"I believe this is an important part of my entire doctrine! Therefore, I will impart all my past insights about water to you."

"In order to make the mind clearer, and at the same time, to avoid being swayed by emotions and falling into a state of panic, we must not rely on theory, but on intuition to take action and make a judgment instantly in unexpected situations."

"[To make the heart stronger], this is my method of cultivation. I learned and comprehended this method a long time ago in a town that represents a spring."

In the battle arena, Miss Washing Green Skirt, after performing the "Victory Dance," unleashed her second attack on Maw of Fowl.

Amidst endless petals and fragrance, nature arrives unexpectedly!

"It's the [Petal Dance]."

Numerous swirling petals and leaves emitting a bright yellow light unleash a tornado-like attack on the opponent from the leaves and the opening of the pale pink flower at the top.

It is said that the way this move is used varies slightly depending on the garden. In this case, the petals that Miss Skirt used were clearly not ordinary flowers.

The flowers, which should have been pink, have turned into a pure white, lotus-like color. While their potency remains unchanged, their aesthetic appeal has improved significantly.
The girl and the baby stared at each other for a long time, lost in thought.

Lightmoss: "Don't worry, the damage from the move remains unchanged. It subtly releases an ancient, dreamlike aura, and the petals of the flowers you see are..."

"The Flower of Hortas".

"For Mawile, which is a Steel/Fairy type, the newly discovered Fairy type, once understood, will give it double the resistance to Grass type."

"However," the girl pondered, "dance can improve one's coordination and sometimes even increase one's strength, but Petal Dance is an exception. It will cause Pokémon to fall into a confused state. Is that really a good thing?"

"Beautiful flowers bloom only briefly before they harm themselves."

But Guangtai waved his hand:

"That's not necessarily true."

"The petal dance actually has three side effects."

Side effects are something that can be quite terrible if there is even one. However, in different works, the side effects of the petal dance are as high as three.

Is this the price that comes with 120 power?
Lightmoss: "When used in chaotic regions, its side effect is the same as the Destruction Ray: after attacking 2-3 times in a row, it will cause the user to be stunned for one turn."

"However, if influenced by the local climate and environment, after learning the secrets of a certain martial art, its negative effect will become... [Enthusiasm]!"

"When engrossed, a Pokémon will not become confused, but will become aggressive, and the damage of the move it is engrossed in will increase by 1.5 times. At the same time, the damage it takes will also increase."

"The Dance of Ortas will become incredibly powerful!"

------

After helping the girl with memories complete her special training and receiving Adam's reward, Hikari bid farewell to the three judges and left the Lilycove City venue.

At this moment, an unexpected young girl appeared, but Adam's expression remained unchanged. Seeing the probing gaze of the moss-covered man, the "Latin old man" simply stroked his beard and smiled.

"My apprentice, Michael, has a very lively and energetic niece who is known as an idol in the Hoenn region's Grand Contests. She is also very famous."

"Although she was so engrossed in the Grand Contest that she didn't even know I existed before, it's a little sad that Mikuri doesn't talk to his niece about me."

"But if you frequently perform in Lilycove City, you'll inevitably run into her. Let me introduce you; this is the [Rukia] you know!"

Rukia struck her signature entrance pose and twirled around; she seemed to always wear that gorgeous competition outfit, no matter the occasion.

"Sparkling~! Spinning around~? I'm the Hoenn region's Grand Contest Idol, Miracle☆Lucia!"

The syllables and elaborate introductions that originated from Adam are perfectly showcased in Rukia!
Adam: "She took the evaluator exam before, but unfortunately, she failed because she focused too much on being flashy. So, becoming a top Pokémon breeder is not an easy goal to achieve. Now, Rukia, you understand that, right?"

"...Rukia?"

Adam noticed that Lucia's expression was strange, and his heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, Rukia's eyes lit up, and she went straight to the point with Hikari:
"Unova Champion, it's a pleasure to meet you! Please come to the Hoenn region to participate in the Grand Contests in the future! Everyone can become an idol! The possibilities are infinite!"

"Dream Miracle☆ Discover an Idol! That Ancient Form Skirt Girl is so beautiful! If she participates in the Grand Contest, she'll surely reap the joy and excitement of people and easily become a true top-tier Coordinator!"

Adam rubbed his forehead:

"Ahem! Another 'Rukia's Big Search'? You seem to have forgotten you're here to observe the assessor exam and improve your own weaknesses."

Once she discovers a trainer with spectacular potential, Mikuri's niece will forget about her original goal. Rather, it's because she loves spectacular contests so much that she's slightly lacking in other areas.

Adam: "Ahem, Lord Lightmoss is a great artist in the Unova region, and seems to be a very famous person. It's impossible to find someone like that."

"Moreover, he is an important member of the BOSS Fan Club and also the guitarist in the currently popular Gas Bomb band."

"Wa, Weezing!" Rukia exclaimed in surprise. "Master, are you talking about that band that released an album in Pokémon Hollywood and is currently very famous and riding high?!"

"I didn't expect you to be such an amazing person." Rukia pursed her lips. "Although I also have my own theme song, 'Charm☆Heart,' it's nothing compared to the Gas Bomb Band. They're the newest world-class band, and it seems they're preparing for a tour. No wonder your performance was so amazing!"

Looking at Ryukia's expression, Hikari couldn't help but think of another "idol".

Haru Shion is ultimately an "extra character" of Sky Tower. The true Unova idols should be "Ruri (Ritsuko)" and "Ate" who appeared in Black and White 2.

That's also the player's communicator romance partner in Black & White 2. Speaking of which, aren't Ryukia and Ruri somewhat similar? And their dressing styles are also quite similar.

"I see. To become as dazzling as you, I also have to risk everything and pass the evaluator exam!" Lucia understood the significance of Adam having her observe from the backstage, while Adam expressed to Hikari:

"So, have you finished appreciating the natural beauty of the Hoenn region?"

Lightmoss: "Yes, the nature of Hoenn is truly beautiful. Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Adam. I think I have made great progress in breeding."

"Therefore, this wind that illuminates the world will also accompany me, blowing to that distant Galar."

------

Several regions illuminated by the stars seem to be undergoing unusual changes, as the radiance of the wishing star is causing a shift in future history.

The Sinnoh region was the first to experience changes.

The reorganization and purge of the Galactic Team resulted in a large number of Galactic Team members losing their "jobs," but at the same time, the Galactic Team's external activities seemed to have temporarily come to a standstill.

Although companies such as the Space Development Corporation and the Galactic Foundation are still operating normally.

However, due to the sealing and investigation of the Galaxy Hundred Building, Akari had to shift its focus away from the two projects of [collecting Pokémon related to the universe] and [utilizing the energy of Pokémon].

Then, they focused on more important matters.

The annual academic summit to be held in Watervein City will feature a variety of amazing findings presented by PhDs from different regions. In the past, inter-regional exchanges were not smooth, and such research conferences were usually held only once every five to eight years in the first 50 years.

Now, the frequency has been shortened to once or twice every two to four years. There are many outstanding new generation PhDs, and older PhDs have also made achievements. Furthermore, due to more frequent exchanges between regions, well-known PhDs will come from afar, bringing their apprentices, as well as entrepreneurs and researchers from various regions, to gather here.

"Humanity's stars. What a rare and magnificent event."

"The academic research conference, which has been held almost every generation at Yuhu University, was surprisingly chosen to be held in Canal City in the Sinnoh region. As expected, the history and mythology of this region are gradually gaining attention thanks to Dr. Yamanashi's investigation and research. As a senior figure in academia, Dr. Yamanashi has made outstanding contributions to the Sinnoh region."

"Therefore, sending people to seize his research data at the beginning was still the right choice. Although the goal was not achieved, as long as we attended this meeting, we could hear many unknown things."

That being said, if he hadn't been exposed before, Akari could have used his status as the CEO of a major company in the Sinnoh region to attend the hearing. But now, due to the unknown accusations and the occurrence of multiple attacks, even though the evidence is not yet conclusive, he can no longer appear in public.

However, Chi Ri's crazy ideas did not diminish; instead, a terrifying thought arose in his mind.

This academic summit is unlike any other.

The number of attending PhDs reached the highest level in the history of the event, and there were even many people from the far seas whose names had never been heard of before.

Humanity's true wisdom and intellect are concentrated in Sinnoh.

If anything unexpected happens to them.

Human civilization could regress by 500 years in an instant!
While for the people of the Carlos region it might seem like "going back 500 years to the age of mystical science, is there really such a good thing?", for people in other regions it was a very painful and sad thing.

Of course, dropping the Galactic Bomb directly on Watervein City to kill all these doctors is too extreme a plan. Although Hades proposed it to clear his name and monopolize the research results, Red Sun does not intend to do so.

veto!

Because, at the moment the new galaxy is born, the life and death of the old world become meaningless!
"I want these doctors to understand the moment the new world was born! I want these stars of humanity to see it with their own eyes and experience it firsthand!"

"If we cannot drop bombs on the three lakes, then the targets of the bombs must be changed."

"Even without the power plant's electricity, we still obtained useful information through interrogating Pluto. By draining the energy from Mount Harshness, we can create an even more powerful bomb, and with the energy collected from the Leonid meteor shower!"

"The Hoenn region possesses technology that can convert geothermal and magma energy into energy. Thanks to the promotion of this technology, and the tireless work of those former researchers at the Grand Cosmos Corporation—those homeless, bankrupt, homeless, and constantly indebted researchers—all of this has become possible."

"We have also established in-depth exchanges on energy technology conversion with energy development companies in other regions."

"From the Battle Frontier Zone to the Pillar of Guns, whose location is still unknown, everything will come to an end!"

"The history of Team Galactic, along with Sinnoh, has vanished!"

------

In the Alola region, south of the four islands, it is located in the Aether Foundation on Aether Paradise.

"The academic conference held in Watervein City is an excellent opportunity."

"The research and analysis of the Star Child was interrupted by the sudden meteor event. However, the stars will eventually grant my wish and let my love spread throughout the Alola region."

"Even beyond the ultimate cave, the same alien humans have appeared. This is a miraculous sign before the wish is fulfilled!"

"This fully proves that light and power exist everywhere in the universe!"

“In the past, the Ether Foundation did not operate in the Alora region, but now, this ancient paradise is the perfect place for us to realize our ideals.”

"For this purpose, we invited Dr. Barnett, an expert in research space."

Lusamine, the chairperson of the Aether Foundation, was strolling through the park, observing the Pokémon ecology on the artificial islands and explaining things to her important subordinates.

Moreover, Lusamine thought that if Moen hadn't disappeared, he should have been able to attend this academic conference.

But it doesn't matter.

In order to study [space] and to improve "those three" Pokémon.

In the Sinnoh region, there are legends about "space".

Therefore, attending the meeting in Watervein City is a must. Meanwhile, in order to conduct more in-depth research on the Ultimate Space, the Aether Foundation is also actively carrying out investigations and research in other distant or nearby regions.

Although they are not welcomed or paid much attention by the locals and are considered a somewhat strange organization.
Lusamine looked at the report in her hand:
Ether Report: The Ultimate Hole.

Opposite the Ultimate Cave discovered by Dr. Moen lies a vast, otherworldly space.

Based on the changes in its mass, we speculate that there exists something similar to Pokémon there, which we tentatively refer to as Ultra Beasts.

The Ether Report: Cosmog.

We speculate that the Cosmog is some kind of Ultra Beast that came here from another dimension, specifically from Ultra Space.

[After putting a certain amount of stress on its body and mind, it may use its ability to open the Ultimate Hole in order to escape.]

We are currently developing a device that puts stress on his mind and body to maintain the Ultimate Hole.

"The Star Child of Alola Legends is a type of Ultra Beast."

"The first people from Metropolis arrived just in time! Although they said it was an extremely dangerous first jump and they returned immediately, the development of the [Special Sphere] was hitting a bottleneck. And they brought with them unimaginable scientific power."

Zaobo, a newly promoted elite subordinate, took over from the previous developer to develop this ball.

"However, their request for a machine that can control Pokémon... Haha, to make such a request is simply blasphemous to someone like me who loves Pokémon."

"Of course, we weren't without results, Biko."

As one of Lusamine's subordinates, Miss Beeco had traveled to the Kanto region and thus knew about Team Rocket. Team Rocket had developed machines to control Pokémon, but those machines didn't seem to work very well.

Biko looked very worried: "Chairman, I don't think this is the right choice."

Of course, Bick was unaware of the Rockets' skills.

But those technologies were all failures. She heard that they had once controlled some powerful Pokémon, but ultimately failed. As for the recent events in Kanto and Johto, she wasn't very clear about them.

The Alola region is far from all other regions, so information does not circulate well with the outside world, and even proactive investigations struggle to maintain long-term and effective communication with the outside world.

There is only one place that is relatively close to Alora.

"This is for the peace and prosperity of Alola's Paradise, which is why we are investigating another Paradise Lost."

Lusamine's expression turned slightly frightening; although she was smiling, it seemed rather sinister to Biko.
"It is said that in Oblibia, there are ancient heroes who can communicate with Pokémon and control them in battle, and who have used items such as spinning tops and stone tablets. If we could figure out how that happened..."

"Summoning Pokémon to battle, a nursery rhyme of ancient heroes, seems to have a high degree of similarity to the Alola Pokémon Riding."

"Although the information is not yet clear."

"However, it seems that there is some organization operating in the shadows. If we can obtain the technology used by the heroes, we can engage in technology exchange with the people of Metropolis, which will be of tremendous help to our research."

"If you're not going to investigate, then I'll send someone else."

Lusamine shook her head.

She wasn't the type to treat her subordinates like dirt; at most, she'd demote them. Besides, Paradise Lost was far more dangerous and primitive than Paradise.
We definitely need to be prepared.

"Let's get ready and head to the Sinnoh region."

During Akroma's time, the Black and White 2 Repentance event had not yet been triggered, so it was impossible for him to help the Aether Foundation develop the Ultimate Sphere.

The final version of the Acromima Machine that controls the Pokémon is currently just unstable scrap metal.

The development of the Ultra Ball took at least five years, making it a rather lengthy process for a completely new type of ball, and it encountered numerous technical bottlenecks along the way.

However, the [Manipulation Gloves] from the Oblibia region, which function similarly to the Akromar Machine, have not yet been developed, and Rusamine is also unaware of any information regarding another type of [Ancient Armor].

But she instinctively felt that there must be something she was looking for in Paradise Lost. Perhaps, she might have an unexpected gain from communicating with some clandestine organization!

----------

The headquarters of the Marocomón Group in the Galler region, the Loz Building!
In Gongmen City, the only way to reach the Lodz Building is via monorail. This is the headquarters of the group, which has many subsidiaries.

Aviation, railways, energy, technology, construction, daily life, banking, television, freight, logistics, life insurance, securities.
And, the gradually emerging [internet].

In addition, the assets of the eight dojos, especially the three cities of Grass Road, Water Boat, and Machine Gun, cover livestock farming, fishing, coal mining, and industry.

Calling it a "global behemoth" is not an exaggeration at all.

"You said you wanted to exchange and share energy development technologies with us."

President Bo played with his hair: "Regarding energy conversion technologies like stars and crystals, if we help each other, we can indeed produce incredible chemical reactions."

"But why would your company want to cooperate with us? Devon Corporation of Hoenn and the Space Development Corporation of Sinnoh are both quite accomplished in the energy field."

Your region's energy resources are insufficient to sustain consumption for the next millennium, and so is ours. It is precisely because you have a need that I have come to you.

President Loz, although this is our first meeting, let's speak frankly and openly!

Opposite the monitor, there was a face obscured by darkness, while behind Chairman Loz was a glass window, sunlight streaming onto him, creating a stark contrast with another company leader shrouded in darkness.

"It's rather strange that you're in the dark, saying things like 'open the window'."

Hehe, toiling in the darkness, in the stillness of the night, is the time when God most loves to whisper to you.

I have a grand dream in my heart, and I think you do too, don't you? To dedicate yourself to the glorious development of Galar and its future for millennia to come.

"..." Loz's expression turned somewhat displeased.

He never treats others as equals, except for a few. Therefore, he is often autocratic in many matters, and when negotiating with companies that are weaker than him, he usually takes the lead.

After all, his own company is a very large oligopoly.

Now, he felt as if his heart was shrouded in darkness, as if the leader of another company had seen right through him, a feeling that made Loz very unhappy.

Please forgive my intrusion into your thoughts, but regarding the development of "Dream Energy," I believe our interests align. We share a common goal.

[By exchanging technology, we can realize our greatest ideals—a win-win situation. This is the enlightenment the crystal has given me. Devon Corporation has abandoned its ideals, and the Space Development Group is just insane! Only you can understand me!]

And most importantly, you and my grandfather were both miners, right?

Crystal? Lorz didn't understand the meaning behind the other person's words, but it might be some kind of key tool, like the one he hid under the energy plant. Ah, that thing didn't seem to have any rationality.

It didn't give me any inspiration, and that thing was found during the development of the Max Bracers while actively seeking energy!

Therefore, everything I do is in accordance with my true feelings.

As for the miner Loz, he has never forgotten his childhood memories, and it is precisely to prevent Galar from returning to that state that he continues to develop energy.

Yes, it was because of this sentence that Lóz made up his mind:
"For the future of Galar a thousand years from now."

Lorz finally sighed; the data and research results sent by the other party were quite tempting to him.

The puzzling point is why there is a gap of more than ten years between the research content and some of the results?

No, it goes back even further, 20 years, or even 70 years ago.

However, what kind of machine is this, labeled "[Remote Control]" and "[Absurd]"? It's a machine related to Pokémon, but there are only partial design blueprints and a small portion of the details.

"I see, this machine is very interesting."

That's a small gift. If our cooperation deepens, this machine can be provided for your use.

That's the machine that controls Pokémon, but it wasn't shown on the blueprints.

Loz didn't quite understand how the machine worked, but he could sense a terrifying malice in it:

“President Blake Hall of Angel Company (Anhenu Company). You and I are the same type of people. However, your ambition is greater than mine.”

Black Hall (Prak Hall):

[Ambition? No, I told you, that's an ideal!]

God said to the king, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, and let darkness fall upon the kingdom, darkness that seems tangible.”

[Then the king stretched out his hand to the heavens, and thick darkness descended upon the land for three days. During those three days, people could not see each other, nor could they leave their own places. But for those who had ideals, light shone upon their dwellings.]

In a faraway region, somewhere called Alora, darkness is a solar eclipse, but also an auspicious sign before the arrival of light!

The darkness will come three times, and then the age of infinite light will arrive.

Of course, that statement is false.

What Blackhall was thinking was...

After the three nights came the fourth.

By then, the Marocomón Group will be nothing but bones in a tomb.

But now, at least on the surface, we must say nice, polite things.

The one who caused the final long night was definitely himself.

Of course, Blackhall was unaware that Loz was also thinking about the night.

The three nights of darkness felt like prophecies of the world's destruction.

However, Galar was born because of the Dark Night and has prospered ever since.

Therefore, darkness is indeed an auspicious sign, and what ultimately brings about darkness is, of course, the cause.

"That's me!"

Both company presidents thought the same thing.

Blackhall crossed his arms, making his face, which was covered in sunglasses, visible in the darkness:

[At Angel Company's 70th anniversary celebration, we will use this technology, a beautiful and superior super technology derived from Galar!]

And we, in turn, will redevelop our area!

[It's a pleasure working with you, President Loz.]

[That's right, for the millennium-long plan of the Galar region, for contributing our strength to the world, and for "A Bright Future for Almia!"]
