Wu Ge felt as if he were drowning in the ocean.

Yes.

I, a Piplup, am drowning in the sea!

That feeling was extremely painful, but Wu Ge was just so sleepy that he couldn't get up even if he had a nightmare.

When Wu Ge gets up.

Lorelei and Cynthia are nowhere to be found. I heard from Xunlan that they went to train, and even Lucario went with them.

The huge room was now empty except for him, Xunlan, and a flower-shaped rock monster.

"Oh, right, Bogarman, I bought one of these when I went grocery shopping this morning~"

Xunlan reached into the sofa and rummaged around.

He pulled out a Naboo doll, which was about 20 centimeters tall.

Xunlan stuffed the doll into Wu Ge's arms.

Looking at the tiny Piplup, hugging a King Naboo doll that's about the same size as him, I couldn't help but smile.

"When we were discussing this at noon today, we realized that everyone slept soundly last night and even had happy dreams. Why couldn't you sleep?"

Xunlan stretched out a finger and scratched Wu Ge's stomach.

'Who do you think it's because of...?'

Wu Ge stretched his legs comfortably while silently thinking to himself.

"Tell me more about you and Masked Cat."

"You're so interested in Masked Cat?"

"Of course, Meowth. That's quite an amazing Pokémon, but most people don't know what she's done."

"Oh? What happened?"

Wu Ge looked up curiously.

What Xunlan was talking about must have happened after his death in his previous life.

But he didn't know those things.

I forgot to ask the World Tree and the others.

After all, he subconsciously assumed that Masked Cat would continue to travel around and live quietly as before, and he never thought that she would do anything extraordinary.

"That happened almost a hundred years ago. I heard about it from my grandmother."

Xunlan turned her head to look out the window and began to tell that story.

In the northwestern part of the Sinnoh region, there are two islands facing each other.

Full Moon Island, Crescent Moon Island.

That was the dwelling place of Cresselia, the goddess of dreams, and Darkrai, the goddess of nightmares.

Although they appear to be corresponding entities, they are actually different in nature; the former is a 'divine beast', and the latter is a 'phantom beast'.

These are all Pokémon that have left behind legends and fantasies in this world.

To the south of the two islands lies a town called Watervein City.

Darkrai appears there for a period of time every year.

During that period, the people of Watervein City would have nightmares for several days in a row, to the point that everyone in the town would have dark circles under their eyes.

later.

The people of Watervein City have found Cresselia's feather.

There is a crescent moon feather.

Darkrai's arrival will prevent people from having nightmares anymore.

Therefore, whenever Darkrai arrives, the people of Canal City take out the Crescent Feather to dispel the radiance of the Nightmare God.

But at some point nearly a hundred years ago.

It seems that humans did something to anger Darkrai.

Darkrai followed the man's trail all the way to Canal City.

After that, Darkrai simply stayed and didn't leave for a whole month.

Some people went to Full Moon Island seeking Cresselia's help, but they could not find her; she seemed not to be on Full Moon Island.

that period of time.

People have nightmares as soon as they close their eyes.

Some people dream that their Pokémon died.

Someone dreamed that they were one move behind in the final of a regional tournament.

Some people dream that when they are having sex with a goddess, it stops abruptly just before the final step.

People could no longer bear the suffering, and more and more people moved away from Watervein City altogether.

At that time, Masked Meow was traveling around and happened to pass by Canal City. After learning about this, he found Darkrai, who was hiding, and beat him severely within an hour, driving him away.

Masked Cat followed him for a while afterward.

They lost track of it.

She then ran to Crescent Island.

He made his move the moment he saw Darkrai.

But this time, Masked Cat discovered that this Darkrai was far stronger than the one in Canal City.

This Darkrai is as strong as Mew and can rival the original Dark Lugia.

It is stronger than the three legendary pillars and the three legendary birds, but not strong enough to reach Lugia's level.

crucial moment.

Cresselia arrived just in time and stopped the fight between them.

The three Pokémon made a plan.

It was discovered that the Darkrai that had been appearing in Canal City was not the one living on Crescent Island, but rather a Darkrai from another place.

That Darkrai probably mistook Canal City for a restaurant.

Every year when it gets hungry, it goes there, makes people have nightmares, and then eats the negative emotions that people experience in their nightmares.

After learning about this.

The well-mannered Masked Cat quickly apologized to Darkrai of Crescent Island, who didn't hold it against Masked Cat and instead thanked him for informing him of the matter.

No wonder He often heard people running outside Crescent Island to curse Him.

Although He didn't particularly care.

But being scolded for no reason still leaves you feeling a bit uncomfortable.

Now I understand.

It turns out that someone was ruining his reputation outside.

After a few rounds.

Masked Cat can be considered to have formed a bond with those two primordial gods.

The legend of Masked Cat also remains in Watervein City, but it is so insignificant that it has not spread beyond Watervein City.

As time has passed, perhaps only some elderly people in Watervein City still remember this legend.

After hearing Xunlan tell this story.

A sudden thought flashed through Wu Ge's mind, and he recalled the scene he had seen in a daze last night.

"Full Moon. Cresselia's Dream"

Wu Ge muttered a few words, and his eyes gradually brightened.

Last night he thought he was seeing a moon rabbit, but it turned out he wasn't mistaken; there really was a big, round full moon hanging in the sky!

Then I remembered what Xunlan said, that they all had happy dreams.

Wu Ge couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong.

It feels like the God of Dreams is nearby.

I just don't know which one it is.

The two on Full Moon Island and New Moon Island are undoubtedly the original beings, the most powerful Cresselia and Darkrai.

But those who come to God's Town are not necessarily Cresselia from Full Moon Island.

"Bogarman? What's wrong?"

Xunlan reached out and rubbed the little penguin's head.

I wonder what's going on in this little guy's head.

"."

Wu Ge glanced at Xunlan.

He was debating whether or not to tell Xunlan about it.

After all, Xunlan is very powerful.

He may not be a champion, but he's definitely at a near-champion level.

At least Xunlan's Garchomp and Sceptile should have reached the Champion level.

However, the Flower Rock Monster at the entrance is clearly not yet at that stage; it is still in the Heavenly King stage and not much stronger than Wu Ge.

"Ok?"

"Xunlan, have you ever considered that Cresselia has arrived?"

After much hesitation, Wu Ge decided to tell Xunlan about it.

He told Xunlan about the full moon he had seen the previous night.

With her quick wit, Xunlan immediately thought of what everyone had been discussing at noon that day.

"...It seems that's true. When I went out to buy groceries this morning, the uncles and aunts seemed to have very good expressions."

After Wu Ge's reminder, Xunlan realized something was wrong, and muttered to herself,

"I knew it. It's been more than ten years, how could I suddenly have that kind of dream?"

Should we go out and look for her?

Wu Ge hugged the doll and nudged Xunlan's chin with it.

"No need, Cresselia's arrival is a good thing."

Xunlan shook her head, not intending to interfere.
