Pokémon: From Check-In

The next day.

A group of people dispersed early in the morning, ready to start free research.

Xiaozhi came to Hapuwu's house early in the morning, hoping to have a chance to fight.

It's a pity that after arriving at Hapuwu's home, Xiaozhi found that Hapuwu was not there, and seemed to have gone out.

"Not here."

At this time, a voice came, "Xiaozhi, are you here to find Hapuu?"

"It's Miss Joy. I did come to look for Hapuu, but she doesn't seem to be here. Do you know where she will be?"

"If you're not at home, you can go to the ruins on the other side, she may appear there."

"The ruins of the other side, okay, thank you, Miss Joy." After finishing speaking, Xiaozhi set off in the direction Miss Joy loved.

……

"Why don't we go to the ruins on the other side to find Tapu Finfin today." Ning Hao suggested.

"Okay." Sirona did not refuse.

On the other side, in the ruins of the other side.

"Tapu Finfin, protect the clean island, god of water and land on Poni Island, please make my wish come true, let my grandfather, Sofuu's appearance and voice appear in front of me."

After finishing speaking, Hapuu gave a loud knock, "Grandpa, please show up. If possible, I want to inherit my grandfather's work, I want to be the queen of the island, what is my weakness, why Kapu Finfin refuses to recognize me, please tell me, grandpa!"

It's a pity that Hapuu didn't get any response.

And Ning Hao and Sirona also arrived here when Hapuu was praying, but they did not disturb Hapuu, but hid themselves.

"Kapu Finfin can let her see her grandfather again?" Sirona was a little curious after hearing Hapuu's prayer.

"I don't know too well, but the legend about Tapu Fin is that it allows people to see their dead relatives." Ning Hao said slowly, he was not very clear about Tapu Fin's ability.

Then Ning Hao looked at the sky, where Tapu Finfin was hiding in it, as if he was testing Hapuu.

……

On a cliff on Poni Island, Silver Companion War Beast, Mane Rock Werewolf and Moon Eevee are fighting, and it is Gladion who is watching from the sidelines.

Just when Gelagio was watching the battle of several Pokémon intently, an exclamation came from behind him.

"yes, Sir!"

Gladion turned his head in surprise, "It's Lillie!"

"Brother, why are you on Poni Island?"

"I'm here to challenge Tapu Finfin to a big test."

After hearing Graggio's words, Lillie couldn't help laughing.

After seeing Lillie's appearance, Gladion was a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"Because big brother said the same thing as Xiaozhi."

"So this is ah."

"But I'm looking for Tapu Finfin for another reason. I heard that Tapu Finfin can let people see the dead."

"Ok?"

"I wish I could see Daddy..."

"...He died accidentally, right? While studying the Ultimate Cave..."

"I don't know the detailed emotions, because I was very young at that time, but I still remember my father touching my head with a big hand. I can't forget the tenderness at that time until now..."

"I'm envious of big brother..."

After hearing Lillie's words, Gladion couldn't help looking over.

"I don't have any impression of my father. The only impression I have is the appearance in the photo, and I can't ask my mother."

"Seeing the appearance of my mother, I feel that this matter is a topic that cannot be mentioned."

"I think so too, but I heard rumors about Tapu Finfin on this island. I really can't do nothing like this. That's why I train Pokémon here in order to call Tapu Finfin. As long as Tapu Finfin sees the bond between me and Silver Companion Beast, it will definitely respond to me."

"Then let me be the big brother's opponent, and let Tapu Finfin see our efforts."

……

On the other side, Xiaozhi has followed Miss Joy's guidance and arrived near the Ruins of the Other Side.

Before getting close, Xiaozhi heard Hapuu's voice.

"Stop now!"

Afterwards, the heavy mud horse that ran wild appeared in front of Xiaozhi, which shocked him greatly.

But when he saw Hapuwu who was holding on to the tail of the heavy mud horse, Xiaozhi rushed over.

"Hapuu!"

When Hapuwu heard someone calling him, he turned his head.

"It's you, Xiaozhi."

"What happened to the heavy mud horse?"

"I don't know, it suddenly went berserk."

After hearing Hapuu's words, Xiaozhi began to look at the heavy mud horse, and finally he and Pikachu discovered at the same time that there seemed to be something on the heavy mud horse's hooves that should not belong to the heavy mud horse.

"Pikachu uses Iron Tail!"

With an iron tail, the fragments stuck on the horse's hoof also fell off.

As the debris fell, the heavy mud horse also regained its sanity and stopped running wild.

"Xiaozhi, you are a very good person. Compared with you, I can't even find the reason for my partner's pain. If you don't come in time, I don't know what will happen."

At this time, Hapu Wu suddenly stood up and looked at Xiaozhi, "By the way, let me do something to repay you! You are the benefactor of the heavy mud and horse."

Xiaozhi was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I'll think about it."

Suddenly Xiaozhi's eyes lit up, pointing to Lehapu's Z bracelet.

"That's it!"

Hapuwu looked at Xiaozhi pointing at his Z bracelet, and hurriedly said, "This... this is my grandfather's relic, I can't give it to you!"

Seeing that Hapuwu misunderstood himself, Xiaozhi quickly waved his hand, "I didn't mean that, I meant Pokémon battle."

Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Hapuwu breathed a sigh of relief, "So it's a Pokémon battle."

"But I refuse..." After saying that, Hapuwu rode on the heavy mud horse and set off towards home.

Seeing that Hapuwu refused, Xiaozhi hurriedly followed.

"Hapuu's grandpa is the king of the island, right? He gave you special training, right? After all, your clay giant is so strong, come on, let's fight!"

"It's too noisy, so I don't want it."

"Why..." Being rejected again, Xiaozhi asked a little discouraged.

"I won't fight against people with a playful mentality."

Hearing Hapuwu's words, Xiaozhi couldn't help but said, "But you competed yesterday."

"That's why I thought you were the Ponny turnip thief."

"But aren't you also competing with your brother?"

"That's because I thought he was a Poni carrot thief like you. After all, didn't you come with your friends? Wouldn't it be fine to go to them to fight, or go to your brother?" Hapuu I vaguely remembered that there was a large group of people around Xiaozhi yesterday.

"Although that's a good idea, but in order to accept the big test, I want to find opportunities to fight more trainers."

"The big test? There is no island king on this island anymore."

"Hey, I'm going to directly compare with Tapu Finfin."

Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Hapuwu was taken aback, "What?"
