In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

They didn't know why, even though they had always wanted to leave Bakura, their feelings were quite complicated now that they were actually leaving.

Or perhaps it's because these past few days have indeed been very pleasant.

You don't have to worry about anything, you just need to wait for the younger generation to arrive. You can relax and enjoy good food and drinks.

A comfortable life truly leads to decadence! They bear the important mission entrusted to Lord Ho-Oh!

"See you again someday." Bakura waved to the three sacred beasts.

Swoosh swoosh 14~

Three whooshing sounds rang out, and the three sacred beasts vanished from their original spots in an instant.

After a peaceful night, Bakura arrived at the hotel lobby early the next morning with the campfire.

Then they saw Daigo, dressed in a suit, talking to a handsome man wearing a white bowler hat and a wide white cloak.

It is none other than Wallace, the current champion of the Hoenn region!

As soon as Bakura and the campfire walked over, their expressions became quite strange.

"What happened yesterday?" Daigo asked in a very unfriendly tone.

"Huh? What happened yesterday? Oh, right, I overslept yesterday, I'm so sorry Daigo."

Mikoli's eyes darted around, indicating that he didn't mean it.

"Overslept? Are you kidding me? Yesterday Mr. Adam said you were a judge for the Grand Contest in Glass City!"

"Ahem... As you know, the Grand Contest is a part of my life."

"So you stood me up?"

"I'm so sorry..."

Mikoli lowered her head, looking like a wronged young wife.

Bakura and the campfire: —. —!

Why does this atmosphere feel so strange?

Bakura looked at the emperor-like Daigo and the delicate, submissive Mikoto with a strange expression.

"Bakura Bonfire, you've arrived."

At that moment, Daigo noticed Bakura and the other two out of the corner of his eye, turned his head and smiled gently.

"Daigo, you're up really early," Bakura replied with a smile, walking up to the two of them.

Mikoli noticed their arrival, and her previously timid demeanor instantly transformed as she looked at Bakura and the other two with an elegant and generous smile.

"It's all because someone is coming." Daigo said, glancing helplessly at Mikuri.

"Let me introduce you. This is my good friend Michael. You've probably heard of him; he's currently the Elite Four Champion of Hoenn."

“Mickey, these two are friends I just met, Bakura and Kakeru.”

Daigo introduced the two sides to some details.

"Hello, Mr. Bakura, and Kayaka, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Michael's handsome face wore a perfect, elegant smile as he nodded slightly to the two of them. His noble and magnificent demeanor was truly admirable.

Mikoli's voice was very soft, even a little seductive, which was quite strange coming from a man.

But for Mikoli, it seemed perfectly normal.

Because his appearance was so incredibly handsome, it was almost insane!

She was very tall and slender, with fair and delicate skin and a head of medium-length emerald green hair.

If Mikoli were to dress as a woman, without a doubt, 99 percent of the women in the world would pale in comparison to her.

"Hello, Champion Mikuri. I've heard of you for a long time as the number one Coordinator Master. It's a great honor to meet you."

Bakura smiled and said to Mikey, "Although Mikey's strength is not among the top in all the regional champions."

However, it cannot be denied that Mikoli's achievements were indeed outstanding.

He was the one who truly popularized the Contests, and he is the only one who, despite not being a traditional trainer, became the Elite Four champion of the region.

"These are all insignificant achievements, and I am where I am today thanks to everyone's support."

Mikoli's elegant smile remained unchanged as she humbly replied.

"Alright, let's go get some breakfast, and then we'll head to Larousse City."

Seeing that everyone knew each other, Daigo smiled and spoke to the three of them.

“Um, there’s a grand tournament in Senna City today…” Michael glanced at Daigo, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke up.

However, before Michael could finish speaking, Daigo's sharp gaze fell on Michael.

Mikoli: ...

After having breakfast at the hotel, the four of them boarded the helicopter that Daigo had prepared in advance outside the city and flew towards Larousse City.

As the eldest son of the largest conglomerate in Hoenn, Daigo's influence in Hoenn is undeniable.

"Mr. Bakura, are you also a trainer?"

On the helicopter, Mikoli trimmed her nails, glanced curiously at Bakura, and asked in her soft voice.

He was actually quite curious about Bakura and Daigo. Although Daigo was gentle and approachable, it wasn't easy to get to know him well.

But it seems that Daigo really values ​​Bakura.

“Champion Michael, you don’t need to be so polite. Just call me Bakura,” Bakura said with a smile.

“My 807 is indeed a trainer. If Champion Mikkuri is interested, we can have a match.”

"Oh?"

Mikoli raised an eyebrow; he could tell from Bakura's tone that Bakura was extremely confident in himself.

"That would be fine, it's been a long time since I've had a serious match."

Michael replied with a smile, "Ever since I was invited by Steven to challenge the Hoenn League Elite Four."

Mikuri hasn't really fought seriously in a long time, since Hoenn is currently very peaceful.

Team Aqua and Team Magma, these two organizations haven't been active for a long time.

"Mickey, you'd better be careful, Bakura is very strong."

Hearing their conversation, Daigo smiled and reminded Michael that he didn't know exactly what level Bakura's strength was.

However, Daigo felt that the chances of Michael defeating Bakura were not high; on the contrary, he thought the chances of him losing were not low at all...

"I'm really looking forward to it."

Mikoli's smile widened, her beautiful, moist eyes gazing at Bakura.

Although he is essentially a Coordinator, Mikkuri is also a Champion-level Trainer.

Mikoli never backs down from a fight!

Chapter 164 I am the strongest trainer on this land

The helicopter was fast, and after about three hours of flight, we arrived in Larousse. Larousse is a high-tech city, with skyscrapers everywhere; human industrial civilization is arguably most prominently displayed in this city.

"Let's go, let's visit Dr. Lundo first."

Upon entering Larousse City, Daigo spoke to the three of them, then led them to the Larousse City Research Institute.

"As far as I know, this meteorite was discovered by Dr. Rondo four years ago."

"Dr. Lundo then brought it back and has been studying it ever since, but so far, there has been no substantial progress."

"It was also recently that an accident led Dr. Rondo to discover that there seemed to be life on the meteorite."

On the way, Daigo gave the three of them a detailed account of what had happened.

"So Dr. Lundo thought of you?"

Mikuri glanced at Daigo. Putting aside everything else, few could surpass Daigo in terms of understanding of Pokémon and research on stones.

"Yes, what other life form could attach itself to a meteorite besides an elf?"

"Perhaps Dr. Rondo thought of this, which is why he contacted me."

Daigo nodded. This world is vast, and there must be undiscovered Pokémon here.

Although it's peculiar to be attached to a meteorite, it might just be a kind of undiscovered spirit.

"We've arrived. This is the highest research facility in Larousse City, and Dr. Lundo is the main person in charge."

Soon, Daigo led the three of them to a building.

At that moment, a middle-aged man with blue hair, dressed in black and with a solemn expression, walked in from the doorway.

"Mr. Daigo, I really didn't expect you to arrive so quickly. Thank you so much, Champion Michael."

The blue-haired middle-aged man walked up to Daigo and spoke enthusiastically, also greeting Michael who was standing to the side.

Wallace is the current champion of the Hoenn region, and with such a distinctive appearance, few people wouldn't recognize him.

Bakura glanced at the blue-haired middle-aged man, who was indeed Dr. Rondo from the original work.

It was he who brought back the Deoxys meteorite, which set everything in motion.

"No need to be polite, these are all my friends. May I have the honor of seeing them now?" Daigo said to Dr. Rondo with a smile.

"Of course, please follow me."

Dr. Lundo nodded, then gestured for the four to come in.

"Although signs of life were indeed found on the meteorite, it appears to be dormant or asleep, showing no signs of waking up."

"Moreover, no organs of its have been found so far, and we have no idea what it eats or how it survives."

Lundo led the four people to the research room, where a huge vessel stood in the center.
