Chapter 262 New Video "Hoenn Mythology: The Origin of Ancient Pokémon and Mega Evolution!" (10,000 words!)

"Bictigini, bring some light."

Xia Chi called softly to the seemingly empty air beside her.

"Tini~"

A cheerful response immediately came from beside him.

Immediately, a soft yet bright ball of light appeared in the air, illuminating the entire cave clearly.

Victini, now in full view, is diligently cosplaying as a dutiful "spotlight," her little face serious.

The sudden appearance of Victini caused Mikoli's pupils to shrink slightly, and he was secretly startled.

So, Xia Chi had been hiding a spirit all along?
Oh, I remember now.
It seems to be the legendary spirit that protected the Heart Drop at the last moment during the Odomare incident.

Although it didn't change the ending of the heart's droplet breaking.
"This way."

Mikoli suppressed his emotions and stepped into the passage shrouded in light first, his footsteps echoing slightly in the empty silence.

Xia Chi followed closely behind, while Latias and Miaoha, who had transformed into human form, curiously examined the ancient stone walls covered with moss.

The interior of the temple was much larger and more profound than Xia Chi had imagined.

The murals on both sides of the passage have been eroded by time and most of them are now blurred, but the vague outlines of ancient beasts fighting can still be discerned.

As they ventured deeper, the air seemed to grow heavy, and a sense of oppressive power from ancient times began to permeate the air.

Finally, they arrived at the central altar hall of the temple.

The dome here is extremely high, and several thick stone pillars with exquisite relief carvings stand in the center.

Several relatively complete giant murals are preserved on the walls surrounding the altar!
Xia Chi's gaze was instantly drawn to it.

In the leftmost image, the earth cracks open, lava gushes forth, and a massive, crimson beast, as large as a mountain with lava patterns flowing down its back, roars to the sky, radiating terrifying heat that dries up the earth.

On the far right, in contrast, is a giant, deep blue fish covered in gold patterns floating in the air, stirring up the boundless ocean. In the background, torrential rain and raging waves seem to threaten to engulf the entire world.

At the very center of the dome is a majestic and sacred emerald green dragon surrounded by an indescribable radiance of power.

A dragon descended from the sky, its face contorted with rage and ferocity!
(Super Rayquaza!)
"I only knew that the appearance of the Liekong Zuo portrait here was particularly different, with a more majestic posture and a sense of power that almost overflowed from the painting."

Beside him, Mikuri gazed up at the colossal dragon on the dome, his voice echoing in the empty temple: "Now it seems, this is the super-evolved form you were talking about, isn't it?"

Xia Chi's gaze slowly swept over the dozens of murals in the hall, some incomplete and some complete, all imbued with a strong narrative.

Ancient lines depict the divine battles, disasters, and protections of a thousand years ago.

Xia Chi narrowed his eyes slightly, countless clues connecting and confirming each other in his mind—

He has already grasped the true secret of super evolution!

Xia Chi nodded slowly and said with certainty, "That's right, and Mega Rayquaza may be one of the origins of Mega Evolution."

He raised his hand and pointed to the emerald green figure descending from the sky in the mural, and began his analysis.

------

"Two thousand years ago, a meteorite containing the primordial power of the 'Key Stone' fell in Meteor Falls in northwestern Hoenn."

"A thousand years ago, another meteorite containing the essence of a 'super stone' fell in the southeastern sea of ​​Hoenn, creating Sootopolis City as it is today."

"The only one that has had 'close contact' with both of these extraterrestrial objects separated by thousands of years is Rayquaza, which has lived in the ozone layer for generations and has guarded the Hoenn sky for generations!"

"To protect this land from the catastrophic impact of the meteorite, Liekong withstood two earth-shattering shocks with its own body!"

"It avoided the catastrophe of drastic climate change and widespread death, but it itself suffered unimaginable damage as a result."

"Because he protected Meteor Falls, Rayquaza was revered as the "Dragon God" by the people there and worshipped for generations."

"And they devoted all their efforts to building a resting place for it that pierced the clouds—'The Sky Pillar'."

"As time passed, when the second meteorite fell into the Lapis Lazuli Sea, the strange power contained in the two meteorites, separated by a thousand years, resonated and transformed at the energy nodes of the Hoenn land!"

"The outward manifestation of this power is none other than the Flying Sky Steed, who has withstood two meteorite impacts and whose internal triangular organs have been transformed into 'super stones' under the erosion of meteorite energy!"

"When that generation of Meteor Dwellers, wielding the 'Key Stone' derived from the first meteorite, were guided by bonds and will."

"Mega Rayquaza has appeared out of nowhere, and once again with its supreme power, it has prevented the meteor from causing secondary damage to Hoenn!"

"However, this magical power also awakened two sleeping ancient Pokémon, Groudon and Kyogre."

"More importantly, the fusion of the meteorite with the abundant energy of the Hoenn lands gave them the terrifying power of primordial reversion!"

"The two gods of the Primal Return have once again engaged in a world-destroying battle for this newly generated, immense energy that can dominate the world."

"Mountains crumbled, oceans boiled, but in the end, Mega Rayquaza quelled the catastrophe with its overwhelming power, plunging Groudon and Kyogre back into the deep ocean caves, plunging them into a long slumber."

------

Listen to Xia Chi's analysis of the entire Hoenn legend through the murals of the Awakening Temple.

Michael, standing to the side, was already dumbfounded.

This water-based champion, known for his elegance and composure, now had his mouth slightly open and his eyes glazed over.

His long-standing identity as a descendant of the Glass People who guarded the temple made him more aware than anyone else of the ambiguity and mystery surrounding these murals.

For thousands of years, countless ancestors have tried to decipher these myths and legends, but they have only been able to glimpse fragments of them.

Xia Chi, a young man who was entering the temple for the first time, relied solely on the murals before him.

In such a short time, it has sketched out an almost complete picture of this grand epic spanning thousands of years.

Under the immense shock, Mikkel's ingrained elegance crumbled instantly.

A phrase brimming with utter shock and admiration, referring to the essence of Donghuang culture, came out of his mouth.

"Fuck, that's awesome!"

Xia Chi simply smiled modestly: "You flatter me, Senior Mikoli. I did some research beforehand, combining what I've seen and heard along the way with my conjectures, which is why I'm able to confirm some of my observations here."

It wasn't exactly being modest.

Information from the past life, clues from the system, and conjectures along the way.

Finally, through the connection of the murals in the Temple of Awakening, he arrived at the answer to the origin of super evolution.

Therefore, the clues pointed to by the system's "seven-colored meteorite blueprint" are becoming increasingly clear—

It points to the source of the meteorite that contains the primordial power of the "super stone"!

Unfortunately, the map coordinates are clearly shown deep in the sea near Liuli City.

A meteorite capable of creating a massive volcano would likely weigh tens of millions of tons!
This is far beyond what Ponpo's astonishing strength could shake, let alone the fact that it is buried deep in the high-pressure ocean.

To truly deal with this behemoth, we'll probably have to rely on humanity's most advanced technological capabilities.
After the Mikelley Cup, I need to talk to Daigo and ask the Devon Group's professional team to handle things.
Xia Chi thought to himself.

In terms of mining and mineral processing, Dewen is indeed a well-deserved expert.

Bringing their wandering thoughts back, the two continued their exploration deep within the empty temple.

"Speaking of which, Teacher Xia Chi."

Mikuri's voice broke the silence with a mischievous chuckle: "Your [Myths and Legends] series, which has been on hiatus for so long, shouldn't the next installment be the epic story of the Hoenn Three Gods? Daigo and I are both loyal viewers of this series."

He shrugged and joked, "I remember someone swore they'd update once a month, you know? And now..."

Xia Chi coughed awkwardly twice.

Sigh, it's only been a little over four months since I last posted.
The fans' tolerance should probably still be within a reasonable range?

But then again, should we do it?
The subject matter itself is of great educational value, serving as a warning to the world about the terrifying, world-destroying power of legendary elves, and perhaps also offering some solace to the "fragile" hearts of fans who have been waiting anxiously for four months.
It seems there's no reason to refuse?

The only potential risk that needs careful consideration is—

Will this video inadvertently fuel the ambitions of Team Magma and Team Aqua, becoming a strategy manual for them to awaken Groudon and Kyogre faster?
Xia Chi frowned slightly, quickly deducing the scenario in her mind.

Then a conclusion was drawn.

The possibility is extremely low!
Because the two most important items for awakening the Hoenn gods, the Crimson Orb and the Indigo Orb, are already known to the Crimson Pine and the Water Archoka.

They probably know even better than I do where the two elves are hiding.

To be absolutely sure, Xia Chi could have completely omitted these two crucial pieces of information from the video.

In this way, it can be ensured that the video does not have the potential to aid and abet wrongdoing.

Or even think about it from another angle.

If he were to vividly depict in the video the absolute destructive power Groudon and Kyogre would possess after their Primal Return, enough to tear apart continents and overturn oceans.

Will this scare away the lower-ranking members of Team Magma and Team Aqua who aren't core loyalists but just work for money or slogans?

The advantages outweigh the disadvantages!

Xia Chi's eyes narrowed, and he made up his mind.

After leaving the temple, I started making a special video about the Hoenn mythology!

------

As the two talked, they unknowingly reached the deepest part of the temple.

This place was even darker and damper than the mural hall, with rough rock walls and nothing in it.

Mikoli stopped and his expression became serious: "I rarely come here, but the ancestral teachings left by our ancestors mention that if we encounter a crisis that will destroy the world, we should come here, where there is a 'method to save the world'."

If Xia Chi hadn't just used his incredible insight to completely analyze the outline of the Hoenn mythology, Mikuri would never have revealed this secret, passed down orally through generations and known only to the people of Lapis Lazuli.

A way to save the world?

Xia Chi's gaze swept over the seemingly ordinary, rugged rock face in front of him.

With a slight thought, the invisible waveguide force spread out instantly, like the most sophisticated detection radar.

Buzz.
In my perception, a very faint, unusual hollow echo came from behind a rock wall!

“Senior Michael.”

Xia Chi pointed to the rock wall, "There's something fishy here, the back is hollow!"

After much hesitation, he finally asked, "So, can I..."

Mikkuri said solemnly, "Of course, I have already learned about the insane conspiracy of those two organizations from Daigo. Perhaps this is the world-ending crisis that our ancestors foresaw."

He smiled wryly and said, "We can't just wait until they awaken those two ancient and terrifying beings, causing a world-ending crisis, before we start searching."

As a former Hoenn Champion, Mr. Rice naturally has a strong sense of responsibility towards the people and Pokémon of this region.

Xia Chi nodded solemnly, then looked toward the target location sensed by the waveguide.

Because this is a hollow structure, its strength is far inferior to the surrounding solid rock mass.

Xia Chi didn't go to great lengths to have Pengpeng take action, because if the force wasn't controlled properly and the temple collapsed, things would be difficult to handle.

He turned to Victini and ordered, "Mental shock, break through it!"

"Tini!"

The tiny star of victory floated up, and a condensed, almost tangible shockwave of psychic energy blasted out!

boom--

After the dust settled, a hole, barely big enough for a fist to pass through, appeared on the rock wall.

The cave was not as dark as expected.

A fist-sized, perfectly round, grass-green pearl lay quietly in the dust.

It is as if a condensed version of the vast sky is sealed within it, radiating a warm and profound fluorescence.

Xia Chi carefully reached out and took out the pearl, murmuring, "This is... the Grass Green Pearl?"

Mikoli was initially puzzled. "The Emerald Pearl."

He immediately realized what it meant, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes: "The same as those two vermilion and indigo orbs?"

Xia Chi nodded and said, "It's highly likely. It's the key item that can summon Rayquaza to descend from the very top of the Sky Pillar!"

Mikoli looked somewhat excited, then exclaimed in realization, "No wonder our ancestor said that the way to save the world existed here; so this is it!"

Victini seemed to be drawn to the jewel as well, flapping its little wings and flying around it, its azure eyes filled with curiosity.

Sensing the subtle, life-like pulsating energy within it using waveguide power, Xia Chi turned to Mikoli and solemnly said, "Senior, this item is of great importance. It is one of the most crucial safety nets for dealing with the potential crisis of the two gods in the future. Please keep it safe and do not let it fall into the hands of those with ulterior motives."

However, Mikoli did not accept the green orb, but instead gave a gentle smile.

He gently shook his head, pushed Xia Chi's hand holding the pearl back, and said softly, "No, it's safest to have you keep this pearl."

"what?"

Xia Chi was taken aback.

"The secret that the people of the Lapis Lazuli have guarded for generations is revealed today because of you. You are now in the midst of the heavy responsibility of fighting against Team Magma and Team Aqua, and you understand their methods and the terror of the legendary Pokémon's power better than any of us."

Mikoli's firm gaze was full of trust.

"Only when this precious gem is in your hands can it truly unleash its power to 'save the world.' I believe in you, just as I believe in Steven who entrusted the Hoenn League to me. Accept it; it is the entrustment of the people of Lapis Lazuli, and one of the hopes for Hoenn's future."

Seeing the unwavering trust in Mikoli's eyes, Xia Chi took a deep breath and stopped refusing.

"I understand. I accept this responsibility."

------

Unravel the myths and origins of Hoenn's Mega Evolution, and obtain the Grass Green Orb to prevent the awakening of the two legendary gods.

This exploration of the Temple of Awakening has come to a successful conclusion.

Xia Chi and Mikoli then left and returned to Liuli City.

There are still a few days of leisure before the official opening of the Mikkelsen Cup.

Without any delay, Xia Chi immediately began the intensive video production process.

Like the Paddy Hole episode, the Summer Pool also uses a real location.

This will be accomplished by combining the unveiling of the ancient murals of the Temple of Awakening with AI video.

It has to be said that when Mikkel claimed to be a loyal fan of his own [Myths and Legends] video series, it wasn't just mutual flattery.

During the video production, Teacher Dami kept coming to Xia Chi's room under various pretexts.

The purpose, of course, is to get a sneak peek at the video, which is expected to be released before the opening of the Miccoli Cup.

Of course, they all moved into the Michaelley family's house.

Xia Chi would occasionally have a tense and exciting battle with Mikuri or Adam to relax and also to lower her fear level.

In fact, without Mega Latias, Xia Chi really couldn't beat Teacher Mi's main Pokémon.

So all that's left is to mess with old gentleman Adam, who's completely focused on how to date magnanimous ladies.

Even so, Xia Chi still managed to get the next Fear Value Chest during this period.

I got Latias, who just joined my team, as soon as I opened the Pokémon shards. I don't know if that's good luck or bad luck.

As for lucky lanterns, besides some of the more common cultivation tools...

What caught Xia Chi's eye the most was the provocative move learning machine.

The importance of [provocation] goes without saying.

Completely shut down the opponent's variation moves!

Just like all Pokémon need Protect, Taunt is a versatile move that no one would complain about having too many of.

In the past, TMs were usually given to Masked Cat to expand its move pool.

This time, of course, there's no need; Meowha already knows this move.

Let's take a closer look at the other spirits in the team.

Sister Fa, Shakiras, Victini, Bear Apprentice, and Ponpon will all be there.

The only one who doesn't provoke seems to be Latias, who just joined the team.
Although the [Psychic Attribute] bond has a chance to add a "Taunt effect" to moves, the trigger probability at lower levels is too small.

For example, his match against Mikoli in the last game.

The initial attrition phase never triggered even once, allowing Milotic to unleash all its abilities, including [Water Ring] and [Light Wall].

Then they started attacking each other, so even if the attack was triggered, it was useless.
It really does take a reliable [provocative] move to be effective.

Without further thought, Xia Chi decisively gave the provocative move learning machine to his younger sister.

From then on, Xia Chi's team was fully in control of the provocation!
That sounds weird, it sounds like something out of a gangster movie.
On August 29th, just two days before the opening of the Mikkelsen Cup.

Thanks to Rotom's tireless work day and night, Xia Chi's new "Myths and Legends" series of videos is finally released!

Hoenn Mythology: The Great Ancient Legend of Pokémon Battle! The Origin of the Sky God's Mega Evolution!

As always, it's packed with hype.

This kind of title would have been unremarkable on the internet of yesteryear.

But in this era where mythology is lacking and the light of super evolution is just beginning to emerge.

It's so catchy that you'll want to click and read the content just by looking at the title!
After pressing the publish button, Xia Chi, who had stayed up all night, looked out at the dawn and yawned.

After drawing the curtains and quickly washing up, Xia Chi, with her left arm around the maid Latias and her right arm around the magical masked cat, drifted off to sleep.

Meanwhile, tens of millions of people around the world who followed the account [Mizuya] on Pixiv received a push notification.

"Your special follower [Mizuya] just posted a video!"

The internet, which hasn't been peaceful lately, has exploded again! ——————

As dawn broke over the Hoenn region, the moon was high in the sky and all was quiet in the Sinnoh region.

Having just finished dealing with a mountain of Alliance affairs, Cynthia finally had a rare moment of peace and quiet to herself.

She sat in a large armchair in the study, wearing a comfortable silk nightgown.

Her long, wet hair, as radiant as a golden waterfall, was enjoying the meticulous "hair drying service" from behind by Pokkiss, who was blowing it with a gentle, warm breeze.

Clearly, she had just finished showering and relieved her fatigue.

The summer nights in Sinnoh are also quite sultry.

Taking a sip of Minas's freshly chilled tree juice, the cool, sweet and sour taste slid down my throat, bringing a refreshing sensation.

Cynthia opened the Pixiv app.

"call"

Cynthia let out a languid sigh.

If you can find an interesting video at this time, that would be incredibly pleasant.

The moment the thought crossed my mind, a notification popped up at the top of my phone screen, much to my astonishment.

"Your special follower [Mizuya] posted a video three minutes ago!"

Cynthia raised her delicate eyebrows slightly.

It's true what they say, what you say comes true!
Hmm... how about being a little more greedy?
Hopefully, it's the [Myths and Legends] series, which has been on hiatus for four months!

Thinking this to herself, Cynthia, a severe mythology addict, casually patted Togekiss behind her, who had the [Heavenly Grace] ability, to soak up some of its good fortune.

Then click on the "Dynamic" tab.

She follows very few content creators, and Xia Chi just updated her channel.

As expected, the top item was Xia Chi's newly released video—

Hoenn Mythology: The Great Ancient Legend of Pokémon Battle! The Origin of the Sky God's Mega Evolution!

It's truly a series of myths and legends!
Even someone as composed as Cynthia couldn't help but feel her heart race at this moment.

Because she knew that Xia Chi had recently stopped posting videos.

One video is bound to be the kind that causes a sensation around the world and even has a significant impact on reality!

From the creation myth of Arceus to the legend of the Three Treasures in Kitakami Township, and most recently the Padia Giant Pit.

This is true for all of them.

So, what is this video foreshadowing?

Cynthia didn't want to think about it; all she wanted to do right now was see the video with its incredibly catchy title!
I couldn't wait to click into the video, and it started with the same familiar opening.

"This video contains artistic embellishments, and some content lacks empirical evidence."

Do you know how long I've waited? Four months! It's finally here!

[Even now that almost every video has been verified, are you still going to keep layering armor? Haji, you bastard!]

[Staying true to one's original aspiration is a good thing.]

Seeing these familiar sarcastic comments, Cynthia couldn't help but smile nostalgically.

Speaking of which, I got into this hobby from the very first Ho-Oh and Burnt Tower.
In the blink of an eye, Xia Chi has grown from a tiny sprout into such a thriving giant tree.

Although the video had only been posted for three minutes, the screen was already filled with comments.

Xia Chi's appeal in the realm of mythology and legends is beyond doubt.

The transparent background blurs out the comments that affect the viewing experience, and Cynthia continues watching.

The video still starts with a black screen.

There is no music or narration, only a heavy heartbeat, seemingly from ancient times, slowly pulsating in the background.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Chi's deliberately low voice began to narrate.

"In ancient times, beneath the fertile land of Hoenn, two restless hearts slumbered."

The screen suddenly lit up, but it was not a peaceful scene.

The camera drops rapidly from an overhead perspective, piercing through the thick earth's crust.

The molten lava, like boiling blood, surged through the dark rock layers!
At the heart of the lava, an unimaginably massive crimson outline undulates slowly, each breath causing the earth's veins to tremble and the mountains to shake!
The molten gold patterns flowing along its back shimmered with a destructive light.

This Pokémon is none other than Primal Groudon!
Groudon rolled over unconsciously, and the screen shook violently, as if the entire continental plate was groaning!
------

It must be said that although this scene was rendered by Rotom using advanced AI technology.

However, because of Xia Chi's understanding of the diverse appearances of Gu La, the entire segment is both realistic and incredibly stunning.

Cynthia, in particular, was stunned.

Could the legendary spirits' activities have such a profound impact?
Although many legendary spirits appeared and many events occurred this year.

Evil Pon and his three companions, the martial arts bear master, and the Latios siblings.
But none of them possessed the terrifying power of Groudon in the picture.

It's as if a single movement of the body could cause the earth's crust to move.

Cynthia recalled the video of Regigigas dragging the continent in the video of the Padia Crater.
Are these legendary spirits really that terrifying? Or are they exaggerated and embellished?

She didn't know.

But Cynthia wasn't curious about it at all.

Because if we really knew, it would mean that a great terror would happen!
Video continues.

The camera immediately switched to Groudon's archenemy, Kyogre.

Similarly, unlike the sea god in traditional paintings, Kyogre in the video is covered in molten gold runes, making him appear ancient and sacred.

Xia Chi's narration began at just the right moment.

"In order to seize the abundant natural energy on the Hoenn land, enough to reshape the world, Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon, these sworn enemies who have been entangled for countless ages, have begun their ancient final war!"

Primal Groudon.
Cynthia frowned slightly; the word "primitive" made her unsure.

Is it simply to highlight the era in which the two legendary elves lived, or is there another purpose?
The narration offered no explanation, and the video continued.

A deep blue whale hovered in mid-air above the raging sea, while a crimson behemoth stood atop the heavy earth.

After showcasing the two contestants, the scene immediately cuts to an ancient battle between two legendary Pokémon!

At times, torrential rains pour down, enough to engulf the world; at other times, sunlight seems to burn the earth, as if trying to scorch the world.

The Root Wave and the Sword of the Cliff Fly Together.

The earth was trembling violently, and the ocean was roaring wildly!
The entire Hoenn continental shelf groaned under the unbearable burden of this divine war!
(The Hoenn Three Fools)
The viewers in the live chat were completely stunned by the scene.

Holy crap! This is the real legendary Pokémon battle!

[Hoenn Continent: I just split open!]

Now I understand why the Hoenn region is half land and half ocean.

[The Water-type Kyogre can't even suppress the Ground-type Groudon, now you know who's stronger, right? (Magnemite laughing.jpg)]

[That was so cool! It's a shame it was AI-rendered; I wish I could see it live!]

[Is that guy in the scene an idiot? Does he really think he's some kind of invincible protagonist who can't get hurt?]

Indeed, if there were a war of gods of this magnitude, the first to die would be cannon fodder like you!

This is probably the first time such a realistic battle between gods has appeared in prison videos.

[This is terrifying! I hope they never wake up again!]

on the screen.

Just as the violent forces of the land and sea were about to collide out of control, dragging Hoenn into apocalyptic catastrophe!
A streak of emerald green meteor tore through the thick clouds, descending fiercely between the two world-destroying behemoths with an inviolable, sacred pressure!
Undoubtedly, it is none other than Rayquaza, the legendary Pokémon that guards the land of Hoenn!
It raised its head and roared, its invisible pressure spreading out as if it were a tangible force!

"The fierce battle had exhausted Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre's energy and stamina. Rayquaza, arriving now with its energy reserves, easily repelled them. The Hoenn gods thus fell into a slumber that would last for a thousand years..."

"And the immense ancient natural energy emanating from their bodies did not dissipate, but instead transformed into gentle streams that nourish all things, flowing into every inch of Hoenn's land and sea, nurturing the vitality of this land for thousands of years..."

With Xia Chi's deep narration, the style shifts from stunning CG effects to a realistic documentary style.

The footage was taken when Xia Chi and Mikoli were exploring the dark depths of the Awakening Temple, a moment secretly recorded by Rotom.

The ancient murals are faintly visible in the dim light, and the sacred dragon shadow with its fierce gaze and majestic posture stands out prominently on the dome.

Mikoli's voice, filled with shock and inquiry, rang out clearly.

"Now it seems that the special Rayquaza in this mural is the super-evolved form you mentioned, right?"

A brief silence followed, and the dim light outlined Xia Chi's pensive profile.

"That's right, and Mega Rayquaza might be one of the origins of Mega Evolution."

------

On the screen, Cynthia's breath caught in her throat.

Super Rayquaza!
Moreover, is it the origin of super evolution?

The power displayed by the "ordinary" Rayquaza in the video was already astonishing; imagine what it would be like to add Mega Evolution.
Wait a minute, so the so-called "Primal Groudon" and "Primal Kyogre," isn't the "Primal" prefix just referring to an era?

Or does it represent a kind of super evolution, a return to the ultimate form of primordial power?
As Cynthia pondered, the video continued to unfold, following Xia Chi's analysis of the mythological narrative within the temple.

Two thousand years ago, meteorites fell from Meteor Falls, scattering the Force of the Keystone.

Liekongzuo protects the earth, withstands meteorites, and is revered as the Dragon God by the Meteor People, who have worshipped him for generations.

A thousand years ago, a meteorite fell into the Liuli Sea, and the Super Stone Origin descended.

The sleeping Hoenn gods were awakened by the combined energy of these two forces, thus completing their primal return and gaining the most original and terrifying power from ancient times!
The Meteor Dwellers, wielding the Keystone, guided the bonds, giving birth to Mega Rayquaza, who once again stopped the meteor disaster and resealed the two gods!
The entire half-hour-long video presents the mythological epic of the Hoenn land over thousands of years in the most direct and stunning way to the world!

When the scene showed Mega Rayquaza utterly crushing the Hoenn duo in Primal Rebirth, the barrage of comments reached an unprecedented peak of shock.

[Holy crap!! Rayquaza can Mega Evolve?!]

[Isn't Super Rayquaza really cool?]

[Wow, this food is amazing! The first things I saw were Mega Latias and Mega Rayquaza. What am I going to do when I don't feel anything when regular Pokémon Mega Evolve anymore?]

Don't worry, the Super Charizard is totally cool!

Wait a minute, the scene where Liekong beats up the two gods in this God War doesn't seem as oppressive as the initial fight between the two gods? Did they run out of money for the dungeon?

[It's obvious you weren't paying attention. Didn't you hear Prisoner say that after the First War of the Gods, the energy of the two legendary Pokémon nourished the land and sea of ​​Hoenn?]

[From a macro perspective, disregarding the harm to living beings at the time, the energy dissipated from the divine war did indeed nourish Hoenn for a thousand years; they were kind to Hoenn!]

I don't understand those macro and micro concepts; I only know that if another god-level battle of this magnitude were to occur, Hoenn would be doomed!

Indeed, go repay Groudon's kindness. I am human; all I want is peace and stability!

[That's incorrect. Only by awakening Groudon to expand our territory can we humans obtain more resources and living space!]

[Hey, you Lava Team minion above, get back to mining! Primal Kyogre is the true ruler! The ocean will give us new life!]

[I've witnessed the diversity of species firsthand. Someone actually wants to awaken a legendary, world-destroying spirit, and even thinks they can control them?]

[If Xia Chi can capture legendary spirits, why can't we?]

[Why are these two organizations so arrogant? Aren't they afraid the alliance will use their internet connections to arrest people?]

The internet is not a lawless zone! @PingAnFengYuan

As the video was about to end with a black screen, Cynthia restored the faded comments she had made to their original state.

Then I saw some anthropomorphic bullet comments.

Team Magma, Team Aqua
Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

Organizations that use some crazy ideal as a banner to do despicable things... are not lacking in any region.

In the Sinnoh region, a shadowy force known as "Team Galactic" also lurks.

When she first took over as champion, Cynthia thought it was just a facade, an organization that talked about principles but was actually all about business.

They use the illusory legend of elves to commit evil deeds and amass wealth.

It wasn't until her first meeting with Natsumi, after being reminded by her, that Cynthia discovered something was amiss when she returned to Sinnoh to investigate.

These bastards seem to genuinely want to summon the legendary Twin Gods of Time and Space, capture them, and then create a new world!
The numerous unusual events that have been causing Cynthia so much trouble recently stem from this.

Let's talk to Xia Chi when he gets back from Hoenn.
Cynthia thought to herself.

The video finally came to an end.

"Legends are not unattainable stories. When greed and ambition once again covet this power capable of destroying the world, the shadow of history may reappear. Don't say you weren't warned!"

The video, which lasted for more than half an hour, ended with Xia Chi's somber and serious warning.

------

When Xia Chi woke up, the sunlight outside the window had already turned from the morning light into the warm golden light of three o'clock in the afternoon.

In the idyllic setting of Mikuri Manor, I practiced martial arts with the elves for a while.

The fatigue from staying up late was instantly dispelled by the surge of energy.

Xia Chi stood under the corridor of the courtyard, taking a deep breath of the air filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, and gazing at the coastline of Liuli City, which was gilded with a dreamy golden edge by the setting sun.

This scene made him even more longing for his small island that was under construction.

I wonder how the construction is going right now.

Not far away, Mr. Mi, who had just finished the final preparations for the Mikoli Cup which was to open the day after tomorrow, walked over with light steps, his face filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"Xia Chi, your new video is going viral again!"

After spending a few days together, the two had long since abandoned formalities like "senior" and "teacher," and their terms of address became casual and familiar.

Xia Chi wasn't particularly surprised by this.

He doesn't pay as much attention to his video data as before, so after waking up, he didn't go to Pornhub or anything like that.

However, it would be too disappointing to say anything like "not interested" at this moment.

He responded with a smile, "Really? It seems everyone is quite interested in the Hoenn mythology."

"It's more than just being interested."

Mikoli exclaimed excitedly, "The number of views is almost ten million!"

Although Xia Chi didn't know what Mikoli was so excited about, he was also taken aback by the data.

It's been less than 12 hours since the video was released, right?

Nearly ten million views?

This speed was even faster than the one at the Padia Crater.

If it were purely a battle of the three Hoenn goddesses, it wouldn't have come to this.

It's highly likely that the "Origin of Super Evolution" gimmick in the video title is being used to generate buzz again.

No, it's not exactly a gimmick either.

I genuinely analyzed the origin in my video.

"Thanks to you, the Mikoli Cup account has also gained a lot of followers."

Xia Chi understood.

No wonder Teacher DaMi was so excited; this collaborative promotional campaign has been incredibly effective.

"go!"

Mikuri patted Xia Chi on the shoulder in high spirits, "We have to celebrate with something good tonight. I've had someone prepare sashimi made from the fresh tail of a Champion-level Slowpoke, and a top-grade hairy crab claw that's bigger than your face and air-freighted from Padia! I guarantee it'll make your eyebrows fall off from the deliciousness!"

It's almost dinnertime.

Xia Chi hadn't eaten anything since she got up, so naturally she wouldn't refuse.

The two walked side by side toward the restaurant in the manor, where a faint fragrance was wafting from.

However, Rotom's phone rang suddenly after he had only taken a few steps.

"Loto's calling! Loto's calling!"

Xia Chi felt a chill run down her spine.

If it's a call from Cynthia, Yaji, or Kiju, Rotom will simply state their names.

There was only one caller who didn't give their name—Fire Goose!
Is something wrong within Team Lava?

"Excuse me, Michael, I need to take this call."

Xia Chi immediately stopped, her face showing apology.

Mikoli keenly sensed the change in his emotions and nodded understandingly: "Okay, I'll go to the restaurant and wait for you."

He considerately didn't ask any more questions and quickened his pace to leave first.

Xia Chi lagged behind, quickly walked to a secluded wisteria trellis deep in the courtyard, and answered the phone.
