Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

Haoyan, whose hand was sore from signing autographs, nestled on the sofa at the Pokémon Center.

There were still a large number of unsatisfied citizens gathered outside the door. If it weren't for Ms. Officer Jenny maintaining order, Hao Yan probably wouldn't even have had a chance to catch his breath.

I'm exhausted!

The enthusiastic citizens, besides asking for autographs, also bombarded Hao Yan with all sorts of questions.

Exhausted, Haoyan wanted to put himself into a Poké Ball and into the Pokémon Center, a machine to restore his strength.

Alice, the culprit behind all this, excitedly clung to Haoyan.

"Director Hirohiko, when did you come to the Unova region?"

"Director Hirohiko, what are you planning to do in the Unova region?"

"Is it for vacation, or is it for business?"

"Director Haoyan, where are you planning to go next?"

"Master Haoyan, would you like to visit the Twin Dragons Dojo sometime?"

Haoyan's Charizard impressed Alice during the Attribute Expert Tournament.

Alice really wants to go to the Hoenn region to visit Hiroyuki.

At that time, she had just become the head of Shuanglong Dojo, and the heavy workload kept her busy.

If he encountered Hirohiko in the Unova region, he would not want to miss the opportunity.

Haoyan's head was throbbing from Alice's incessant chatter.

He casually replied, "I'm here for tourism in the Unova region..."

So he found Miss Joey and got a bento box to satisfy his rumbling hunger.

But to everyone's surprise, it was this one sentence that made Alice extremely excited.

"Director Haoyan!"

"You must be completely unfamiliar with the Unova region!"

"How about I be your tour guide?"

Want to be a tour guide?

Forget it!

Faced with the enthusiastic Alice, Hao Yan politely declined, saying, "Director Alice, let's skip the tour guide thing; I imagine you're quite busy..."

Before Haoyan could finish speaking, Alice immediately interrupted, "No rush, no rush!"

"I've taken care of things at the dojo and I'm just about to relax~"

"It's my honor to be a tour guide for Curator Haoyan!"

Haoyan, who was shoveling rice into his mouth, sighed inwardly upon hearing Alice's reply.

It seems there's no way to get rid of Alice...

... ...

Chapter 604 Alice: There's no one here, perfect for doing *that*.

The headquarters of the Plasma Team.

Upon returning from Tangcao Town, Kuisi immediately summoned his trusted confidants and convened a meeting.

During the meeting, Kuischer shouted at his subordinates, "Useless!"

"You're all useless!"

"Didn't I tell you to keep a close eye on him?!"

"That Haoyan has come to the Unova region, and you haven't heard a thing!"

Kuischer kept throwing various items around the office.

I ran into Haoyan in Tangcao Town and almost got arrested.

Even now, when he thinks about it, Kuisiqi is still filled with lingering fear.

Faced with Quesch's rage, the Plasma Team members dared not dodge.

After a long while, Kuisi managed to suppress his anger.

She looked at Akroma, who was standing casually to the side.

Akroma, a wanted criminal known as the "Dark Scientist".

He was convicted of serious crimes including researching and using prohibited weapons on Pokémon, and modifying Pokémon.

To evade the League's pursuit, he joined Team Plasma.

"Dr. Akromma, how's your machine development going?"

"When will we be able to wrest control of Zekrom from that monster's hands?" Queschi's tone was very impolite.

I am dissatisfied with the long development time of Akromma.

Akromah shrugged and said, "The equipment is complete..."

"And it has already been tested..."

"But the previous targets were just ordinary Pokémon, so it's still uncertain whether we can control Zekrom..."

Kuisiqi said coldly, "Then what do we need to do to get a result!"

Akroma remained indifferent; he and Queschi were merely partners, not superiors and subordinates.

He said casually, "Zekhrom's specific abilities are currently only speculation; without actual data, there are no results..."

"Getting the result is simple: make Zekrom fight with all his might, so I can make an accurate assessment..."

"A full-force battle, huh..." Queschi seemed thoughtful, and after a long while, he continued to ask, "What about the plan to revive Genesect?"

"We've had those five stones for so long, they should be almost ready by now..."

Alero replied, "The work of resurrecting Genesect is nearing its end..."

"The problem isn't resurrection; the problem is whether I can control the machines I've created..."

"Whether it can be controlled..." Queschi murmured thoughtfully, "As long as I can control Zekrom, there are also five Genosects..."

"With such strength, he shouldn't be afraid of Hao Yan, who wields the Thunderous Throne..."

After thinking for a while, Kuisiqi said to his trusted confidant, "In my name, send the order to that monster."

"Let that monster attack that damned Haoyan..."

"At the same time, we will carry out necessary testing and promptly report the data back to Akroma!"

Upon hearing this, the confidant immediately nodded, replied "I understand," and hurriedly left.

... ...

Hao Yan had no idea that his arrival would elicit such a strong reaction from Quixote.

He is currently on Route 2 in Tangcao Town.

"Director Haoyan, come quick!"

"There's nobody around here, it's perfect for us to do that!"

An excited Alice surveyed her surroundings and discovered that she was in a large open space. She waved excitedly to Hao Yan, who was traveling with her.

Regarding Alice, Haoyan was speechless when it came to not seeking help from Si Liu…

What do you mean by "no one around"?

Suitable for doing that~

It's like something's...

"Director Haoyan, didn't you promise me?"

"Come quick!"

Seeing that Haoyan didn't move, Alice ran over and looked up at him with hopeful eyes.

My face turned rosy from running around.

It adds a lot of girlish charm~

"Alright, let's begin~" Hao Yan didn't correct Alice's grammatical error.

Alice was just an innocent young girl, completely unaware of those implications…

He casually stood in a corner of the open space, assuming a fighting stance.

That's right, Alice just wanted to have a simple Pokémon battle with Haoyan.

Seeing that Haoyan was ready, Alice ran to the other side of the open space, closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, and adjusted her state.

When Alice opened her eyes again, her eyelashes shone brightly.

His expression also became extremely serious and earnest.

"Director Haoyan!"

"Ever since I witnessed your brilliance in the Attribute Expert Competition!"

"I am deeply fascinated by your power!"

"My dream is to become a Dragon Master!"

"My grandma told me that if you want to become a Dragon-type Master, you have to battle with powerful trainers!"

"And you are the strongest trainer I know!"

"I eagerly await your guidance!"

"So I hope you won't hold back in the battle later!"

After saying that, Alice bowed deeply to Haoyan.

Alice's serious attitude also made me start to take things seriously.
