I beg you female trainers to give me money even if you lose!

But it hasn't appeared yet, and there's Rayquaza, which can sense things that invade Earth.

So after holding a welcome party for Rayquaza, Yang Xiying, Nana, and Milita returned to Lilycove City and, led by the two girls behind her, experienced the local customs and culture of the Hoenn region.

For example, the hunting grounds west of Lilycove City are a must-visit; you might be able to catch some new Pokémon to bolster your forces.

However, Yang Xiying's harvest in the hunting grounds this time was far less than last time; he only managed to subdue Wubo and Tianxie.

The number is the same as the number of Gaioka, the Shadow Doll he caught while strolling along Route 121 in the southern part of the Safari Zone.

However, adding four Pokémon to the team is enough for now. Too many would be difficult to manage. We'll find new ones once the newly added Pokémon can stand on their own.

Of course, having girls guide you isn't just about catching Pokémon; spending time with them is also a very important part.

However, apart from the hunting grounds, he and Nanami only spent time together at the hotel. After all, she didn't want to appear too intimate with him in front of outsiders, which was better for everyone.

Rita was similar, but this girl took her to visit someone she knew in Lilycove City.

Yang Xiying also recognized this old friend, who was the sun hat-wearing older sister and the aloof older sister Lucy whom she met at Mount Tsukimi.

They run a fashion boutique in Shuijing City, so it was a surprise to see Yang Xiying arrive, since they had only met once.

They hadn't chatted online many times, since they had only met once and were in different places, so he didn't know much about Yang Xiying.

Now that they know this person is a big shot, their attitude is somewhat complicated, since the big shot has an ambiguous relationship with them in private.

—Should I say that I've snagged a perfect bachelor, or that the other person has been tainted by scandal?

Regardless, Lucy Akiyama did not forget their previous promise that they would treat Yang Xiying well when she came to the Hoenn region to visit them.

After spending time together, the awkwardness caused by not seeing each other for a long time disappeared, and Yang Xiying was still as caring as ever towards girls.

—And it's just as incredibly fierce as before.

Well, Yang Xiying spent a wonderful time with Lucy Qiujiang under Rita's guidance, and he stayed in Water Lily City for three days.

The process was uneventful and happy, without any unexpected events, and very peaceful, but every time I thought about it, I felt something was wrong.

"Little girl."

Because Yang Xiying noticed a familiar presence lingering around her hotel recently, and could often sense a hidden gaze observing her, she decided to take the initiative to find it.

"—You were watching me from behind, weren't you?"

Pretend to leave in a hurry, giving the other party no time to think and the opportunity to continue following, and catch them red-handed in a deserted alley.

"you……!"

The person following them was dressed casually, wearing a baseball cap, and a grimace appeared on their cute face beneath the cap.

—This guy is indeed incredibly resourceful…!

She had been secretly watching the person in front of her all this time, but she never expected that the other side would still notice.

—This is it, we're doomed!

"...What do you mean, 'I'? Do you mean you're wondering why I was able to detect your presence? The answer is quite simple: I can sense it."

Yang Xiying responded with a pout.

"...Your perception is truly cheat-level strong,"

The stalker revealed a strange expression and instinctively backed away.

"How can you deal with all sorts of troubles without cheating? Now that I've caught you red-handed, you should know the consequences."

Yang Xiying's lips curled up slightly, and the girl immediately took off running. After all, the last time she looked for this person, she was turned into Want Want Rice Crackers...!

The Rayquaza you wanted is now in my hands.

But the voice that popped into her head made her fall flat on her face!

"you……!"

The girl in the baseball cap, who was lying on the ground like a Kurosaki falcon, suddenly turned her head with an incredulous expression.

"Come with me for a drink, Miss Higana,"

Yang Xiying gave a thumbs-up and pointed in one direction, inviting the other person to join her.

……

"You mean Liekong is sitting on your hand?"

Finally, a girl named Xijiana followed Yang Xiying to a coffee shop and entered a private room.

Although this was not a wise choice for her, after all, the last time she and a group of people went to cause trouble for him, they were all killed instead.

—Now I'm all alone...!

However, the sentence that Yang Xiying uttered in her mind made her very concerned: Rayquaza was sitting on his hand, which was the legendary Pokémon she had been searching for!

"yes,"

Yang Xiying took out a Master Ball, and after some manipulation, Rayquaza's mini-projection appeared.

"...It really is Rayquaza?!"

Seeing the mini projection made Higanbana even more excited—the Poké Ball had the function of letting people know what Pokémon was inside.

—So, as this person said, the Flying Sky Throne is in his hands.

"...In that case, can we talk?"

Yang Xiying didn't let the other side see it for long before she retrieved the Master Ball.

"...What do you want to talk to me about?"

Higana frowned slightly, and at that moment, the person opposite her spoke up.

"Why do we need to know if the other person has any qualities that interest us? Besides, we haven't even introduced ourselves yet."

"...I know you. You are Yang Xiying, who runs the online account of Teacher Pigeon and is also favored by a large number of legendary Pokémon."

After a moment of silence, Xijiana spoke.

"In contrast, you know me, not just by my name, but also by what I am pursuing now."

Although she didn't know why the other party knew these things, could it be that this person had also been secretly investigating her?

"Yes, I know a lot about you, Higana, the inheritor of the Meteor Dwellers, who tried to use Rayquaza's power to resolve the meteor crisis."

"That's precisely why I wanted to talk to you,"

Yang Xiying nodded in response, and then revealed the other party's identity information.

"...Then let's go back to the same question: what do you want to talk to me about? Conditions? You have the Rift Siege, and I need the power of the Rift Siege."

Xijiana responded that she felt Yang Xiying brought Liekong to find her just to do this, tsk, it had a kind of opportunistic feel to it.

"No, I just wanted to tell you that I will handle the meteor crisis, and you don't need to do anything like stealing MEGA bracelets and MEGA stones."

Yang Xiying shook her head in response, which made Xijiana look incredulous, not only because the other party was going to claim that they would deal with the meteorite crisis.

—And the other side even knows his next objective!

PS: Update!

Chapter 535 Higana's Unsolicited Gift...

Higanbana, as a Meteorite Dweller, has the mission of summoning Rayquaza and Mega Evolving it to help deal with the meteor crisis.

However, certain conditions must be met to achieve this. First, one must find Rayquaza, a legendary deity who lives in the sky and is quite difficult to find.

It usually descends upon the earth when there are extremely significant events, such as Groudon's resurrection.

That's why she thought it was a good idea for Team Magma and Team Aqua to summon Groudon and Kyogre, but both of those organizations are now completely wiped out.

— News of the arrests of these two organizations has spread widely online.

Therefore, Higanbana had no choice but to resort to another method: performing the summoning ritual passed down through the Meteor Dwellers to forcibly summon Rayquaza and cause it to evolve.

But this was the most difficult part, because she tried several times at first without success, and couldn't even summon Rayquaza.

Therefore, using Groudon and Kyogre to lure the enemy into a trap was a necessary Plan B, but it was precisely because of this Plan B that...

Higanbana finally understood that summoning Rayquaza required an extremely large amount of energy, so she now focused her attention on the Mega Stone and Mega Bracelet.

These two items contain an enormous amount of energy. If the summoning ritual is continued using these, not only can Rayquaza be summoned, but it can also Mega Evolve!

However, just as she was about to do so, she discovered that Yang Xiying was staying in Water City, and Xijiana had very complicated feelings about this person.

The last time I went to see him, I was turned into a Want Want rice cracker, which made me instinctively want to stay away from that filthy guy. Going to cause trouble for him is just asking for trouble!

But this person did indeed display incredible power; when I first met him, he was only controlling a black and gold dragon god.

Now he discovers that more and more gods are following him, and even Groudon and Kyogre are under his control.

In a sense, this guy ruined her plans, since it made it much harder for her to attract Rayquaza.

Then, because this person even had Groudon and Kyogre in his hands, Higanbana had a bad feeling that Rayquaza was also in his hands.

So she wanted to confirm what Yang Xiying was really thinking, but then she thought about his lewd nature...

However, there's nothing that can be done now that the other side has taken the initiative to come knocking on our door with Rayquaza. It's just that the other side even knows what we're going to do next!

"...You know a lot,"

What on earth is going on? Could it be that the person opposite me is a more powerful successor?

"Just pretend I've read a book of prophecy; I know a little about the future of this world."

Yang Xiying responded to the other side in this way.

He could indeed understand some of these things through the games and comics from his original world, but some realities were not quite what he had imagined.

"Yeah……"

Xijiana suddenly fell into a deep thought, and then she saw Yang Xiying preparing to leave the private room.

"In short, that's all I have to say. I'll handle the meteorite crisis; there's no need to steal other people's things."

"After all, the League will invite you in to accompany Team Magma and Team Aqua."

"You...you came to me just to tell me this?"

Higana's expression suddenly turned strange, as if the person opposite her was a kind old man advising her not to do anything rash.

"Otherwise what?"

Yang Xiying retorted, "If you go and steal MEGA stones, you'll always cause trouble for others."

"Furthermore, according to the law, even if someone is an undercover agent for Team Magma or Team Aqua, they should still be in jail having tea with Team Magma and Team Aqua."

"Then why don't you arrest me?"

Xijiana asked, and Yang Xiying replied directly, "Your service was very attentive last time, and you didn't make any serious mistakes, so I'll let you off this time."

"You... dirty!"

Upon hearing Yang Xiying's words, Xijiana blushed and angrily rebuked the person opposite her.

"You're incredibly arrogant to say you'll handle the meteorite crisis yourself! Do you even know how to handle it?!"

"I've already subdued Rayquaza, so what else do you think I can do?"

Yang Xiying responded, while Xijiana was speechless for a moment.

She had heard this explanation about dealing with the meteor crisis from the Hoenn League, but they couldn't summon Rayquaza.

Therefore, the plan is to use a method that utilizes technology to relocate the incoming meteorite to another location.

It sounded feasible, but Higana had heard from her people that the meteorite transfer would most likely occur in another universe.

The meteorite will destroy the Earth there because the people there have no way to deal with it...

So Higanbana was also concerned about how the opponent would handle the meteor crisis, but the opponent's Tire's empty seat had already explained it.

—He also wanted to use Rayquaza's power to deal with the meteor crisis!

"So are you ready?"

Higanbana's expression turned serious. "Summon Rayquaza to deal with the meteor crisis."

"This is the mission of the Meteor People's successor that my people often tell me about, and it is something I must do."
