Pokémon from Galar

Seeing Yuri's sleepy, half-closed eyes, Mari couldn't help but laugh.

"Look what this is!"

As she spoke, Mary held up the incubator in her hand, then pressed the switch, revealing the eggs inside. Yuri blinked, frowned, and leaned closer to examine them carefully for a while before asking:

"...What kind of Pokémon egg is this?"

"Six tails."

"Oh...Six-Tails, ha..."

"An Alolan Ice-type Vulpix!"

"Hmm, I know, I know, where did the Fire-type Six-Tails come from in Alola?! Wait?! It really is an Alolan Six-Tails?!"

While yawning and speaking halfway through her sentence, Yuri's groggy mind finally caught up with what Mary had said. Her whole face was pressed against the screen, her eyes wide as she stared at the eggshell that made no discernible details.

"Pfft... Of course it's true. I got it yesterday. It's said to have great talent, so you should cherish it."

"Waaaaaah!!! Marie, I love you to death!! It really does have six tails! Yay—!!!"

Upon hearing Mary's affirmation, Yuri's sleepiness vanished instantly, and she even jumped up excitedly on the other side of the screen, which, from Mary's perspective, seemed to startle Joey, the older sister behind Yuri.

"Alright, calm down. We don't know how long it will take to hatch. I'll teleport you there now. Go buy an incubator."

"Okay, okay! Wait for me! I'll go buy it right now!"

Watching Yuri excitedly run to the nearby Friendship Shop, Mary smiled and carefully took out the fairy egg. The cool touch and the beautiful white patterns made Mary feel quite magical.

After waiting a few minutes, Yuri finally sat back down in front of the screen, holding a brand-new incubator.

"I'm back! Hurry, hurry~ Hehehe~"

Giving up on complaining about Yuri's silly smile, Mari placed the egg on the already activated teleportation machine next to her, set the coordinates and temporary password, and after verifying with Yuri, closed the machine and pressed the teleportation button.

call out--

Almost simultaneously, a gasp came from Yuri's side. Mari turned her gaze back to the screen and saw Yuri carefully placing the Pokémon egg into the prepared incubator. Only after seeing the green light indicating normal operation of the incubator light up did Yuri breathe a sigh of relief and look at Mari again.

"Hehehe~ Now I'll have to figure out a way to prepare the ice stones~"

"Cough... Calm down, what are you planning to do now? What if your Eevee accidentally touches it? And Vulpix can't evolve too early. This egg is said to hatch into a Vulpix with great talent. Don't get carried away."

"Um... I, I was just saying it offhand, really..."

Blushing, Yuri scratched her head and laughed shyly.

"By the way, did you go to watch the challenge match at the fighting dojo? How was it?"

"Ah... well, there was a little accident. For the past few days, Farfetch'd has been going to challenge Bea's Gym Leader every day, and now I'm training with Bea's Gym Leader every day."

"???"

Marie blinked. What was this all about? But being able to train with Bea was a good thing. Even though she specialized in Fighting-type Pokémon, she wouldn't be completely clueless about other types. If she could get some guidance, that would be a bonus.

"Hehehe... This is a long story, and I expect I'll be staying in Suchuan Town for quite some time."

“It’s okay to stay a little longer. This is the fourth gym. It’s better to proceed steadily. Besides, you’re running too fast. When I get back, won’t it take me even longer to catch up with you?”

"I'll wait for you~ I'll come with you from Machine City after you come back."

"It seems like a good idea, so let's agree on that."

"Uh-huh!"

Mary glanced down at the time, then smiled and said:

"It's getting late, you should probably hang up now. Go to sleep, you'll have to get up early every day if you're training with Gym Leader Bea, right?"

"Hehehe~ Goodnight then?"

"Okay, goodnight, bye-bye~"

Bye-bye~

He waved goodbye to Yuri on the other end of the screen before deliberately cutting off the communication.

P.S.: Come to think of it, the anime didn't mention that eggs could teleport, but they can in the game, so I'll assume they can...

Chapter 136 Zaobo's Plan, Little Nebula is Abducted

After leaving the Pokémon Center, Marnie followed Professor Kukui's earlier words and headed straight for the playground, only to find Ash and the others gathered together, not jumping rope.

"What's wrong? Did they change the lesson content?"

Mary walked over and saw everyone's serious expressions, as well as Gladio, who had appeared out of nowhere.

Lillie saw her brother rush out and said anxiously:

"Brother, Mary, Zaobo, and Nebula have all disappeared!"

"what?!"

"..."

Mari frowned. Zaobo had actually escaped? Wasn't he suppressed by Biko and her men yesterday? But Mari didn't ask any more questions. After all, neither Gladio nor Lillie were involved in the affairs of the Aether Foundation, so asking wouldn't make a difference.

Ash looked at Gladion and asked with a serious expression:

"Where would they go? Do you have any clue?"

"I am afraid……"

Gladion, after all, knew more, and when it came to Ultra Beasts, he immediately thought of a possibility.

"They went to the Ether Paradise."

"Oh—in that case, we'll have to take a boat again?"

But Lillie, upon hearing Ash's words, suddenly turned her head and said:

"It's alright. If you want to go to Mother's place, there's a special way."

After saying that, Lillie took out her phone, walked to the side and dialed a number. Judging from the way she addressed the person, it seemed that she was contacting the butler who took care of Lillie.

"Gargio? May I call you that? What method did Lillie mention?"

Mary, curious, struck up a conversation with Gladgio beside her. Perhaps impressed by Mary's performance yesterday, Gladgio, though still maintaining aloof attitude, honestly answered Mary's question.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be a small aircraft, a research and development project of the Ether Foundation. Mother has arranged for it to be stored in the basement of several residences."

"I see..."

The evil rich.

Perhaps this is just the way the wealthy are; at least Mary would never think of traveling by flying vehicle when she goes out. At most, she would take a flying taxi, which is ridiculously expensive.

Upon hearing Gladion's description, the others shared similar thoughts with Mari, and together they looked up at the sky, waiting for the approaching aircraft.

After waiting for less than four minutes, a rather futuristic-looking aircraft slowly landed and came to a smooth stop on the school's field.

As the hatch opened and the elevator descended, Lillie's old butler appeared at the hatchway, gave a slight bow, and said:

"Miss Lillie, Master Gladio, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Please come in."

Ash was the first to turn around and look at Professor Kukui and the others.

"Then I'll go."

"Pikachu! (Me too!)"

"Don't do anything reckless."

"Ok."

Mao stepped forward with concern:

"Even so, the outcome will still be chaotic, won't it?"

Mary took Lillie's hand and walked forward, turning to look at the surprised Lillie and smiling as she said:

"Lillie wants to go too, right? Then go ahead, I'll protect you."

"Marie... thank you!"

Gladgio walked ahead, glancing sideways at Marie and Lillie. His gaze met Lillie's, who was looking over. After a moment of silence, he glanced at Marie one last time before looking away.

"...Hmph, do as you please."

This can be seen as tacitly acknowledging Lillie's following.

The four of them boarded the aircraft together, fastened their seatbelts, and quickly took off, heading towards Ether Paradise.

Mary sighed inwardly. She hadn't been attending classes for the past two days and had been running to Ether Paradise. She had thought things would be quiet for a few days.

……

The aircraft was moving at an alarming speed. Mary didn't even have time to marvel before she felt the speed decrease, clearly indicating that they had arrived at the Ether Paradise.

The group quickly disembarked from the aircraft and found Rosamund, who was working in the villa next door, and together they took the elevator down.

"Has Zaobo returned to the Ether Paradise?"

"Yes, he's with Nebula."

"Let's hurry!"

Gladio thought for a moment and said:

"That guy is probably in the red zone."

"...Could it be that Zaobo..."

Looking up at the surprised Lusamine, Gladion nodded:

"There's no mistake, that guy is planning to summon the Ultimate Beast again."

"..."

Upon hearing this name, Lillie, who had been attacked, trembled all over. Mari tightened her grip on Lillie's small hand, while Rosamund took the initiative to hug the trembling Lillie to reassure her.

Marie let go of Lillie's hand, allowing her to hug her mother. She took out the Poké Ball and called out Baloo and Ichigo, ready for the battle that could come at any moment. Of course, Sasuke and Yuu were left in the Poké Ball, as this battle was not suitable for them to participate in.

I don't know if it's too late to shut down the device now, since in my memory, Ultra Beast reappeared and kidnapped Chairperson Lusamine.

The elevator descended to the bottom floor, and Mary followed Lillie inside. They quickly found Zaobo, who had no intention of hiding. Beside Zaobo was a huge machine that had already started up, and above it, the Ultimate Hole, which looked like it was about to take shape.

Noticing the newcomer, Zaobo took two steps forward and extended his arms in an invitation:
