Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

#185 - The Speedy Flame Emperor and the Awakening of the Sky-Breaking Flame

The humans in the Pokémon world are truly unbelievable. Even though the Unown possess infinite power, there's a problem. The little girl stays in the Crystal Tower, not allowing anyone to approach. And the items around, except for the water, have all crystallized. So, what does she eat?

Koutai stood in the green grassland, inexplicably thinking about this question.

This area isn't reality either, but a kind of alternate dimension. This feeling is too familiar, like returning home.

The power of the Unown is just so unreasonable, it can directly materialize the mind into a real alternate dimension. The master who controls the Unown can theoretically do anything here.

I remember Team Rocket also appearing in this movie. And they found the hall where the Unown gathered right away. Why do I seem to be lost?

This field seems to be the place where Satoshi and Entei competed, right?

Koutai observed everything here with great interest, while also trying to knock off a piece of the 'transparent stairs'.

How is this thing floating in mid-air?

It looks unremarkable, but being able to float in the sky is already an incredible item. Is this also a product of mental materialization? The movie is practically like a special item fire sale.

【Craft (?): Sky Stairs.】

【Description: One of the products materialized by Lily's mind plus the power of the Unown. It can be fixed in the air without falling or shaking at all. It is an item that is almost impossible to exist in the real world. When the power of the Unown disappears, the Sky Stairs will also disappear. If there is special technology, this kind of stair can be retained and manufacturing can be tried.】

Until two waves of voices came from above and below at the same time.

Coming from underground, naturally, were Satoshi and his group 'going upstairs'!

Wearing the classic blue outfit, the reckless young man with Pikachu on his shoulder rushed up the stairs with a burst of anger, determined to save his mother from this cold tower. Seeing this familiar young man, Koutai couldn't help but feel a wave of nostalgia.

It really is... so nostalgic, Satoshi.

Right now, you are still ignorant, not yet the Pokémon Master you hope to be, sincere, brave, reckless.

And Satoshi's teammates were dumbfounded when Koutai saw them.

Although it's still the classic Takeshi and Kasumi, their styles are wrong!

Takeshi's style is even more macho than in the anime, and Kasumi's hairstyle has completely changed! That's Kasumi's style from the special episode! It's also the short hair style from 《HeartGold/SoulSilver》!

Then wouldn't that mean... the relationship between Kasumi and Satoshi has also changed?

They hurriedly ran up, and the voice coming from the sky, down along the transparent mental stairs, was Lily and Entei!

"Entei!"

"You are Pokémon Trainers... Huh?"

Originally, Lily, in her adult form, was riding on Entei's back, looking down at Satoshi and his group, her heart already unable to suppress the desire to fight, but she suddenly noticed someone dismantling the floating stairs?!

She was stunned on the spot, and Satoshi and his group who ran up from downstairs didn't expect there to be other people here!

"Um, may I ask who you are?" Satoshi subconsciously wanted to ask Koutai's identity, but immediately came back to his senses. Now is not the time to introduce himself to strangers!

"Interesting, how did you get in? I didn't see you on TV." Lily smiled and looked at Koutai, but suddenly felt Entei's body trembling slightly, as if suppressing some kind of restless instinct, which startled her.

"Papa, what's wrong?"

"Ugh... that person..." The fake Entei stared at Koutai, and the moment he saw this strange young man with a backpack, the roar that had been tormenting it in its mind became more intense!

"Why... why is the voice in my mind getting louder and louder? What exactly is on you that is calling me?"

"Fight! Fight with me!"

The fake Entei directly carried Lily and crashed to the ground. Its mane exploded, and its eyes widened in anger!

"Entei, where did you take my mom!" Satoshi was also in a fit of anger at this time, and directly began to question, and the suddenly irritable Entei suddenly spewed a mouthful of flames at Satoshi!

"Protect."

"Pika Pika?"

Pikachu also tilted its head curiously, looking at the strangely shaped Futachimaru.

"What kind of Pokémon is that?" Lily, who came down from Entei, also showed a rather interested expression. Of course, beside her, her 'papa' was still in a state of emotional agitation, which made her a little at a loss.

"Lily, I'm fine." Entei suppressed the strange restlessness in his heart again, but his eyes did not leave Koutai.

The source of the call is right in front of me?

"Are my Unown here?" Koutai took the initiative, and a question made the adult Lily in front of him stunned.

"What..." Lily thought of those "friends" in the hall. She bit her lip: "They are friends who are willing to play with me."

"At least mine is very unwilling, it sent a distress message." Koutai waved his hand and said seriously: "I know your name, and I also roughly know where your real papa went, so, take me to the place where those Unown gather."

"That's impossible."

Entei spoke, his expression full of vigilance: "I am Lily's papa."

Koutai: "What are you talking about, not only are you not Lily's papa, even the identity of Entei is fake."

This was considered euphemistic, after all, Satoshi directly shouted "I won't lose to you, Phantom" in the movie, directly breaking the fake Entei's defense.

This guy seems to vaguely know that his birth is problematic, but he is unwilling to face it, even now...

"You say I'm fake? How is that possible!"

Entei's expression became visibly ferocious, and his anger rose sharply: "I am 'papa', I came here for Lily's happiness! As long as Lily can laugh, that is my greatest joy!"

"That's not true!" Before Koutai could speak, Satoshi, the reckless man, shouted out first, and preemptively played the three-hit combo to break the defense:

"You're just a phantom, you're the imaginary Entei created by Lily's heart!"

As expected, Entei let out an angry war cry: "You say I'm a phantom, I am, I am this child's father!" It slammed its hooves on the field, causing violent air currents and vibrations!

"Then, when did your memory begin?"

Koutai's hands released fluctuations, isolating the surging attribute energy.

Satoshi: "That feeling just now was..."

Koutai: "Spiritual power, you should have met Matsuba, the Gym Leader of Enju City, I have the same spiritual ability as him."

"Entei, what is your perception of yourself? Satoshi, you should know the story about Entei from Professor Oak, right?"

"Um, eh? How do you know my name?"

Satoshi pointed at himself blankly, but seeing Koutai's eyes... that kind of look was like looking at a friend he hadn't seen in a long time, full of nostalgia and joy.

"Have we met somewhere before?"

"A long time ago, just call me Koutai."

"Is that so?" Satoshi scratched his head in confusion: "But I can't remember eh."

"It doesn't matter, your memory has always been bad."

Koutai casually joked, which made Kasumi and Takeshi, who were following, chuckle.

Indeed, even in the anime, people Ash meets are completely forgotten after only ten days or so. Everyone jokes that "Ash has amnesia again," and he gets a clean slate in each new region, forgetting everything from before.

"Well, let's talk about Entei." The steady Brock cleared his throat. "I'm Brock, the Gym Leader of Pewter City, although it doesn't seem like the time for introductions."

"I'm Misty, the Gym Leader of Cerulean City," the short-haired Misty added.

"Professor Oak told us that May's father is investigating Entei and the Unown, and clues about Entei have been found in many ancient ruins. Sculptures, stone carvings, murals..."

The newest novels are first published at 69shu.com!

"Um, there's a problem. Entei shouldn't appear in those ancient ruins," Koutai pointed out. "So, the Entei in those ancient ruins isn't the real 'Entei.' It's most likely a Pokémon that looks very similar to Entei, and later generations just mistook it for Entei."

"So, this ties in with my previous question. Entei, do you remember how you were born?"

"Ash, you've been to Ecruteak City, you should know the legend of Suicune."

Ash nodded, "I, I've seen Suicune!"

Of course! When traveling in the Johto region, Suicune was still very impressive. After all, it was once a cover legendary Pokémon, and it hasn't been reduced to being caught in roadside fishing nets yet.

"Suicune, Entei, Raikou. They were born in the Burned Tower 150 years ago, resurrected by Ho-Oh. Their past and present are completely different. This is a well-known historical legend. They exist as messengers of Ho-Oh observing humanity and are also called the Ho-Oh Guardians."

"The relics that Professor Xuri is investigating existed long before this Entei was born, and even if Entei traveled through time through some power, it shouldn't have left its footprints and legends in so many places."

"Entei, were you resurrected by Ho-Oh?"

Koutai threw a fatal question at the fake Entei, and the fake Entei's body suddenly stiffened.

Ho-Oh?

What Pokémon is that?

The image of this Pokémon does not exist in its memory, but it is indeed Entei, appearing in response to May's call. Her father should have existed long ago, a spirit in fantasy. It shouldn't, shouldn't it only have been born 150 years ago!

"That's not right, I'm the real one!" The fake Entei's memory was confused, and it roared!

"Without the memory of being created by Ho-Oh, it's impossible to be the real Entei."

"Ash, Entei came from above. Your mother should be up there. Don't waste time here."

Koutai directly stole Brock's follow-up lines and pointed to the Sky Stairway, then explained:

"I'm also here to save my companions, so you don't need to worry about me. Just go up." Koutai touched the heating spot on his body and took out the Dragon Plate.

The plate resonated with something, and in the surprised eyes of May and Entei, Koutai took out the "Symbol Plate" from his backpack!

Roars, faintly audible. Koutai also heard a strange roar!

Um, this feeling is exactly the same as when I first saw Wave Crash in the dream!

Coupled with previous guesses about those Entei ruins, the source of this roar could be...

"This is May's world, created using the power of the Unown. The power of the Unown resonates with people's hearts, so whoever controls this place can create anything, and anyone can change. Even Pokémon can be created at will."

"But this power is not used like this. It was originally the great power used by the gods to create all things. Because of this, the more that girl believes, the more she fantasizes, the stronger you become as a phantom. The theory is infinite because you are created by the Unown in response to people's hearts."

"Let's try it out. Don't you want to fight?"

Koutai consulted Entei, and Entei glanced at May beside him. The latter originally just wanted to come here for a trainer battle with Ash and the others. And it really was as Koutai said, because this is her mind world, as long as she wants, just like in the original work, no one will be a match for her crystal Pokémon.

The crystal Pokémon she conjures not only have infinite stamina, but can even use the god-tier skill "Dodge!" even in a confused state. Brock also commented that the Pokémon she fantasizes are much stronger than the original Pokémon.

Even a Phanpy can directly knock away an Onix with a single Rollout, ignoring the difference in size and weight!

"I..."

Entei saw Ash and the others climbing the Sky Stairway. That was something he didn't need to care about, because May had many incarnations, and the next mind field would still block them. But now he was troubled by that strange roar!

He had to end this quickly!

"Of course, I came here to fight with May!" Entei went directly into battle, without watching like in the original work. May had just conjured a crystal Poké Ball.

"May can't lose. Even if you are a very strong trainer."

"No, I'm not a trainer," Koutai waved his hand, casually trying to imitate May's behavior.

A strange light gathered in his hand, and a crystal Poké Ball was created out of thin air!

"How can you..." May looked at Koutai making a crystal Poké Ball in disbelief.

This is her world!

"I'm just testing it out. Anyway, it's not very clear to explain. Just think of me as having a powerful psychic power, the kind that can affect the mind."

"The crystal Poké Ball is just a test. The main event is next."

"I'm not a professional battle trainer. If we battle, my goal is very simple. After defeating you, please take me to find my Unown. Don't go back on your word."

"Just as that girl believes in your power, I also believe that this Pokémon can defeat you."

Koutai suspended the Symbol Plate in the air with spiritual power. The stone pieces combined and arranged in the air, quickly forming a word.

Entei.

"Ugh!" When the words were rearranged, the fake Entei had another headache. The angry howl became clearer and clearer, as if about to burst out from a dream or even a distant mind world!

"It's you influencing me. Why, why does your mental power affect me!"

Koutai didn't speak, rearranging the words on the plate! Then, adding the power of the Dragon Plate!

Unown + Plate + Creation Power + Mental Amplification!

Ugatsuhomura!

"Roar!"

A fierce roar and violent flames suddenly appeared out of thin air. The power of the Symbol Plate converged. Because the power of the Carving Board was also mixed in, the Unown would also respond to Koutai's heart!

The crystal began to condense rapidly. While everyone was resisting the flames, a huge, four-legged Pokémon was summoned from the dreams of a distant era!

It had a similar Entei faceplate and body color, but its limbs were thicker and had sharp dragon claws. It had a silver sword halberd and a white smoke tail. The golden shield armor above the faceplate was its striking feature, and its eyes had no trace of kindness, only ferocity and rage!

Who is called Entei? I will end its life!
