I made Pokémon come

It was very ordinary, but it left a deep impression on him.

Even though they had only spent a short time together, strictly speaking they had been together since he stepped into that town, and in a sense Jirachi had even accompanied him all the way.

It's like being the audience in the live broadcast room, and the 'first' audience.

That's why John made a promise to Jirachi without hesitation, because this is indeed what he needs to do next, and it is also his way to integrate into this world wholeheartedly.

But Jirachi is different.

For it, every life it sees when it wakes up is an existence that needs to be remembered with heart.

so...

As if realizing that Gengar and the others didn't know what expression to show at the moment, Jon closed his eyes and smiled: "Just treat Jirachi as a friend you just met."

"Jon..."

Since we were meeting for the first time and hadn't even been together for very long, it was naturally impossible for me to feel too reluctant to part.

And if this is the case, then you need...

"Don't worry about it. Just make sure you get along well with each other the next time you meet."

"No...Jon..."

Gengar's tone was full of confusion, as if hesitating whether to interrupt Jon's monologue.

Finally, Gengar stood on tiptoe and patted Jon's head, signaling him to open his eyes.

Jon opened his eyes in confusion, and then...

He saw the shadow of Jirachi floating above the crystal cocoon, blinking at him.

So... the cube's energy hasn't run out yet?

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

[“Jon?”]

Although he was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but cover his eyes, Jon still replied "I'm here", and then...

[“Jon Jon Jon!!!”]

Jirachi, formed by attribute blocks, happily pounced on Jon, which was also telling Jon that in fact, the Pokémon phantoms summoned before were all controlled by their own will and they were just pretending to be mute.

Chapter 243 The Three Dragons of Tao

Jirachi's body fell into a deep sleep, but the attribute block that had not yet completely exhausted its energy allowed Jirachi to wake up again in this special form. The result was so dramatic that Jon now didn't know how to respond to the other party's enthusiasm.

However, the most important thing right now should be to give up the idea of ​​staying in this underground space tonight. After all, every time Jirachi woke up before, he could only stay in this desolate underground space. If it is the same this time, it would be too pitiful.

But before leaving, Jon took another look at the stone sculpture of Arceus.

Even if Jirachi doesn't remember Arceus at all, he obviously existed.

Otherwise, Jirachi would not have known about Arceus' existence in this way.

So will Giratina and the others remember?

Jon didn't know.

But he thought that perhaps as long as he successfully collected the cubes condensed from all attribute energies, he would be able to know the truth behind Arceus' disappearance.

If he were to classify them by attributes alone, he had now collected blocks with the attributes of fire, psychic, grass, ghost, dragon, poison, steel, and fairy, which meant that he still had ten more to go.

Although it seems that most of the collection work has been completed, the difficulty of the collection work will definitely increase in the end. After all, the attributes of the Pokémon that become "anchors" will be repeated.

After leaving the underground space with Jirachi, John deliberately observed the other party's condition.

Before, when summoning the power phantoms of legendary Pokémon, their help was needed, so Jon didn't know how long Jirachi could exist in this way without using power.

The good news is that Jirachi's shadow showed no signs of disappearing, but Jon felt distressed by his blank staring at the sunset.

"What did Jirachi do when he woke up in the past? Um... I mean, before Jirachi came to that place, the world didn't become like this from the beginning."

While setting up the tent, Jon couldn't help but ask Jirachi who was still looking at the sky.

This sentence brought Jirachi back to his senses, and he began to recall what he had done.

Jirachi actually remembers very clearly what he sees every time he wakes up, but Jon's question is difficult to answer.

【"have no idea..."】

"Don't know Kou Jie?"

Gengar, who was helping to set up the pot, was stunned after hearing Jirachi's words, and couldn't help but look at the other party.

Gengar feels that Jirachi should have a clear goal every time he wakes up, because the time is too short.

but...

[“Because everything is different now, Jirachi doesn’t know what to do...”]

As he spoke, Jirachi floated in front of Gengar.

It seemed curious about what Gengar was holding, but continued to answer the previous question.

[“When I want to do something, I want to sleep again.”]

Gengar opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort him for a moment.

However, Jirachi didn't seem to need any comfort. After circling around Gengar, he floated in front of Frostmilk.

The eager gaze made Frostmilk tilt her head and then stretched out her finger.

The little princess used this action to ask Jirachi if he wanted to eat whipped cream, but Jirachi giggled and flew towards the Beedrill.

Jirachi recognized every Pokémon around Jon, but it wasn't until now that it could actually say hello.

It said hello once and then returned to Jon.

[“What are you doing?”]

"Be prepared to rest here."

【"rest?"】

Jirachi tilted his head cutely, and then realized that normal creatures need to rest every day, unlike it, which is reluctant to close its eyes for a second every time it wakes up.

[“Then let Jirachi protect everyone tonight!”]

Jon smiled and nodded.

...

...

At the same time, on the other side of the world.

For most people, tonight will definitely be a sleepless night.

It's not just because he learned that there really was a God of Creation in this world, but also because of the words relayed by Gengar.

Kyurem says it turns out we can't lose each other?

Who is "Kyurem"? What are "the facts"? Who are "we"?

Compared to Arceus, who is now only known for his high status and being forgotten for some reason, Jirachi's words are more intriguing.

Then they chose to ask the questions in their hearts.

...

...

"Kyurem?"

When Jon saw the barrage of comments in the live broadcast room, he paused slightly while stirring the soup.

"This is a very special god... Remember what I said back then about some Pokémon having different consciousnesses?"

The people on the other side certainly remembered it, but they didn't expect that there were such examples among the legendary Pokémon.

"It's just that compared to Pokémon like Diglett, Kyurem's situation is a little more special... Or it's not originally called Kyurem, but the part of it that is the main body is called Kyurem."

As he spoke, Jon recalled the clues about the Three Dragons of Tao in his mind.

Originally the three dragons of Tao were one, but there was no specific name, only the title of "divine dragon". Moreover, even after being divided into three bodies, it did not mean that they would stop interacting with each other. On the contrary, some of their consciousness was still connected.

"And if it's called Kyurem then its powers should be divided."

[Separated? ]

【Why separate? 】

[Isn't Kyurem the main body? Is it taking the initiative to do this? ]

“I’m not sure about the answer to this question.”

Jon shook his head.

He naturally also thought about the problems that people in the other world realized because of Jirachi's words, but this world cannot be directly applied to the Pokémon world he knows.

"Perhaps it's because of something we saw that led to some differences in philosophy."

[Good fellow! They split up just because of a difference in philosophy? Is this God's willfulness? ]

[Don't use mortal thoughts to speculate on the actions of gods, but from what Jirachi said before, it seems to prove that its actions are wrong? ]

Jon also didn't know the answer to this question.

"For Kyurem, philosophy may be everything. Even the two individuals that split off are based on different philosophy. They are Reshiram, who represents "truth", and Zekrom, who represents "ideal". Kyurem, who is the main body and the shell, is the symbol of "realm". "

Unlike other Pokémon that have "divine duties" and therefore possess corresponding powers, the Three Dragons of Tao are more like the embodiment of a "concept".

[Uh... the atmosphere suddenly became philosophical. ]

.

.

Chapter 244 Where have reality and ideals gone?

“It’s quite philosophical indeed.”

After seeing this comment, Jon nodded in approval.

"If Giratina is the opposite of everything, then Reshiram and Zekrom should represent the ideological opposition but at the same time complement each other, so they are the embodiment of "concepts"."

The embodiment of the concept.

People in the other world fell into deep thought.

They understood what Jon meant.

For this type of Pokémon, the answers they seek are much more important than power, so they split their own power and consciousness due to different ideas.

So just like what the previous comment said...

Don't try to guess what God is thinking with mortal eyes.

People accepted this statement, but only after learning that the other two individuals that split represented "reality" and "ideal" did they realize that the matter was not that simple at all.

This does involve the realm of philosophy, but what kind of differences will separate "reality" and "ideal"?

Because there is no clear boundary between the two in essence.

"Ideal" can be transformed into "reality", and "reality" can push "ideal" in a higher direction.

So just like what Jon said, the two are contradictory but also complementary!

This is something that ordinary people can understand. How could a Pokémon, who is a god, not understand it?

People don't think that will be the case.

So it should still be related to that sentence.

"It turns out we can't lose each other."
