There seems to be something wrong with these Pokémon

The matter in Ziyuan Town has come to an end, and Shuo Guye and the others are ready to start a new journey.

Izumi You decided to stay in Lavender Town to recuperate. He also wanted to learn more about the history of this mysterious town and find new creative inspiration by talking with the townspeople and Pokémon.

The truth of Lavender Town is too heavy for Pokémon, townspeople, and outsiders like Sakuya Ye who were accidentally involved. They need some time to slowly digest it, re-examine the past and forgotten history, and find a new way out.

But apart from this, there is also a rare piece of good news that can break this depressing atmosphere.

That is the Pokémon egg that Sakutani Ye obtained from the Chiba couple through a Pokémon battle. After waking up in recent days, he always found that it was flashing with a little red and white light, which is a sign that it is about to hatch.

A new life is about to be born, and nothing is more worth looking forward to than this.

As a result, Fujino Sakura has been nervous recently, asking Sakutani Ye about the situation of the Pokémon eggs dozens of times every day, and only pats her chest with relief after getting a positive answer.

However, just as Sakutani Ye and Fujino Sakura decided on their travel route and were about to set off after purchasing supplies, Miss Joy appeared in front of them and stopped them.

"Sakutani Ye, Professor Oak from Pallet Town is looking for you." Miss Joy looked anxious. She left in a hurry after leaving a few words without much explanation.

"The doctor said that if you received the message, you should call him back. He has something important to ask of you."

The two looked confused as they watched Miss Joy take off her medical gloves and throw them into the yellow recycling bin while holding up the walkie-talkie and saying something.

The question got stuck in my throat before I could even speak it out.

Recently, both the tsunami and the earthquake in Lavender Town have caused many Pokémon to be injured. The Miss Joys in various regions are very busy today. If it is not a particularly important task, it is almost always handed over to the volunteers wearing red vests who come to maintain order.

It was probably only because of Professor Oak's status in the Pokémon League that the extremely busy Miss Joy was willing to give her face and personally walk out of the red and white Pokémon Center to look for someone.

but...

"Oh my, it's not that urgent." Professor Oak laughed awkwardly in front of the computer screen in the institute. "Joey is really something. She is so busy that I can just find someone to convey it to me. I have to ask her to complete it in her own rest time. I am so sorry."

"What's up, Doc?"

Sakutani Ye saw Professor Oak's assistant behind the screen carrying several briefcases and hurriedly running from the left to the right, and then hurriedly running from the right to the left carrying several machines, and couldn't help but ask.

Professor Oak himself also had sweat on his forehead and a ruddy face, looking like he had just rested after a hard day's work.

"You look... busy, too."

"This... is a long story."

As soon as he got to the point, Professor Oak straightened his expression, coughed a few times, and then said solemnly, "Is there any news about the tsunami that shocked Kanto? Have you all read it?"

"Is it the one where all the residents living along the coast mysteriously appeared a few kilometers away, and no one was injured or killed in the whole incident?" Fujino Sakura said, squeezing into the picture.

"That's right." Professor Oak nodded. "The fact that no one was injured was not some strange incident. It was because Nancy, the leader of the Golden Gym at the time, happened to be traveling near Shallow Eagle Bay. She was the first to discover the phenomenon of low tide, and used her supernatural powers to evacuate all the people living along the coast before the tsunami arrived."

Suddenly, Professor Oak seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly shook his head, ignoring the two people who were already dumbfounded on the other side of the screen and said, "No, no, this is not important."

"The point is that the cause of the tsunami was kept as a top secret file by Kona, one of the Four Heavenly Kings. No one except her has the right to read it."

"Master Kona is also involved?"

Shuoya Ye couldn't help but ask.

"She was involved, and she was the person involved." Professor Oak said, "Maybe she knew something, and for the sake of the alliance, she decided not to announce the details of this incident to the public for the time being."

"Is what Professor Oak wants to ask Xiaoye to do related to this?" asked Fujino Sakura.

"Yes." Professor Oak nodded. "After the island sank, the undercover agent of the Kanto Alliance planted in the Rocket Team headquarters risked his life to send us a photo."

Professor Oak's expression was serious. For the first time in Sakuya Ye's memory, his eyes had lost their frivolous look. They were deep and solemn. He said word by word, "He is a hero, and we, as the recipients of this news, must follow up and pursue him in a timely manner, so as not to let down the information he exchanged his life for."

"Now, I need to ask you if you are ready."

Professor Oak looked at the two people sitting upright on the screen and asked, "Are you willing to join this journey that may be a one-way trip, to retrieve the last words of a hero for the Pokémon League?"

"I'll give you five minutes to think about it."

Professor Oak saw the strange girl's tense muscles and slowed down his tone. "What I'm telling you now are all insignificant little things. Even if I don't tell you now, the Pokémon League will send a related notice to all residents of Kanto soon, so you don't have to worry about anything else and make your own choice according to your heart."

"I will go, Professor Oak."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Professor Oak finished speaking, the young man's clear voice with a hint of laughter rang out.

Fujino Sakura turned around in surprise and saw the boy's lips curled up, and his slender right index finger teasing the tentacles protruding from the lavender brooch.

His expression was so gentle and indifferent, as if he was just answering the question of what to eat tonight. He didn't realize how risky this trip was.

"Xiaoye, think about it seriously!"

Professor Oak raised his eyebrows when he heard the reply, and stood up, leaning against the screen to try to see the boy's expression.

"Don't worry, Professor Oak."

Sakutani Ye's fingertips paused for a moment and then lifted up. The lavender tentacles did not retract, but shrank and deformed along with the brooch, climbing up along the boy's fingertips, and finally landed on his shoulder and turned back into Ditto.

"This is the result of our careful consideration, not an impulse response."

Sakuya Ye and Ditto smiled at each other, then raised their heads and looked directly into Professor Oak's light brown eyes, which seemed to have stars twinkling in them.

"Doc, I've been on this journey to this point and have met so many people who have taught me a lot."

A Cerulean City police officer who used his flesh and blood to resist the invasion of Team Rocket.

A simple town where Psyduck coexists, Rain Town.

Even though he was seriously injured, he fought to the last moment to protect Director Ma Zhishi of Vermilion City.

The Kato couple infuse their children's growth with love, and Kato Arashi heals them with the company of cats.

Sister Mimi is willing to be trapped by the nicknames given by humans and stay in the freezing cold snowy mountains to rescue lost people.

......

Finally, there is Tal, a girl who never forgot her promise even though she turned into a ghost.

The protagonists of these stories are of all kinds, but the only thing they have in common is that they are all written by humans and Pokémon, and they are story chapters that reflect their unique bond.

"This kind of life is beautiful, and no one has the right to destroy it."

Sakuya Ye took a deep breath, suppressed his smile, and said solemnly again, "Even if it's for the bond between Pokémon and humans, I will definitely go, even if it costs my life."

Professor Oak was silent for a moment. Perhaps he was moved by the determination in the boy's eyes, or perhaps he was because the reasons the boy gave were so similar to the oath that the hero who was undercover in the Rocket Team headquarters had made. In the end, he didn't say anything more. He just nodded and moved his gaze to the girl beside him who was biting her lower lip.

"Fujino Sakura...right?" Professor Oak asked softly, "Have you made your choice?"

"I..." Fujino Sakura opened her mouth, but then closed her lips tightly and said nothing.

It's not that she didn't have the courage to risk her life for Pokémon, but every time she had this thought, the smiling faces of her parents and friends would appear in front of her, and she would put an emergency stop to her impulse.

But when she wanted to refuse, a clear and gentle voice would always ring in her ears.

Bravery is not about being fearless, but about being afraid and moving forward anyway.

The young man's silhouette, as if covered with a layer of gold in the sunset, seemed right in front of her. He smiled and stretched out his hand to her.

brave...

She also wanted to take that step.

The silence that lasted for several minutes seemed to have revealed the girl's choice. Professor Oak and Sakuya Ye did not have any other emotions, but they understood her feelings very well.

Professor Oak had put away his seriousness. In order to ensure the confidentiality of the following conversation, he was about to ask the girl to leave when a barely perceptible voice rang out.

"I...will go too."

The girl seemed to realize that her soft, mosquito-like response was lackluster.

So she raised her eyes firmly, met the look of surprise in Professor Oak's eyes, and repeated, "I'm going too, Professor Oak."

Professor Oak's surprise only lasted for a few moments before a relieved smile appeared on his face, with pride between his brows.

Look, this is the ambition of the new generation of trainers in Kanto!

With these children around, Guandu will definitely have a promising future!

"Okay, then I won't hide it anymore and explain why I'm looking for you two new trainers."

Professor Oak softened his facial curves and said with a smile, "Not many people know about this matter. The famous trainers in the league cannot interfere at will, otherwise it may be discovered by Team Rocket at any time and a war will break out."

"The Alliance is not afraid of bloodshed, but before the battle we must find out the details of Team Rocket and try to avoid more casualties by relying on these clues bit by bit when the final battle comes."

"Even my trip was under the guise of studying ancient Pokémon fossils, and I only brought my assistant with me to cover up my tracks." Professor Oak's eyes became sharper, and he continued, "Therefore, both I and the Alliance need trainers who can fight as a means of protection and participate in this operation."

"It would be best if it was a trainer who is not famous, has decent skills, and will not attract the attention of Team Rocket." Sakuya Ye understood what Professor Oak was thinking and continued his words, "In other words, a novice trainer."

"That's right." Professor Oak gave Sakuya Ye an approving look and said, "Of course, in addition to you, I also found several other novice trainers who set out at the same time as you. However, most of them are on the journey and cannot be contacted for the time being, and a few have refused this operation for personal reasons."

"So our teammates have...?" Fujino Sakura asked.

"There are only three trainers participating, so the risk factor is extremely high."

Professor Oak smiled bitterly and said, "Besides you, there is only one novice trainer who agreed to this operation."

"who is it?"

"Yes--"

Professor Oak's voice was drowned out by a sudden scream, followed by the roar of a sports car coming to an emergency stop and the sound of the girls' high heels stepping on the ground in an orderly manner.

"How could I miss such an interesting thing?"

A familiar voice came from behind, and Shuo Gu Ye turned around in surprise.

"Xiao Mao?!"

"Hey, long time no see."

Xiao Mao brushed his slightly long bangs and walked towards the two of them.

"Grandpa has already told me the details. I'm here to pick you up and go to our destination - Osandani."
