Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World
#189 - Picture books of myths and fairy tales
The blades of the Doubleblade, overlapping within their sheaths, suddenly grew larger. Unlike others of their kind who used Sacred Sword techniques in a conventional manner, the Doubleblade's blades emitted a special light similar to the "Sacred Sword" of the Swords of Justice!
Cobalion's Sacred Sword was blue, Terrakion's was brown, and Virizion's was green, seemingly representing their respective attributes.
The Sacred Sword used by the Doubleblade, however, was overlaid with a deep, dark purple light like that of a ghost, with a layer of silver brilliance, as firm as steel, shimmering beneath the spectral power.
Sacred Sword: An attack that cuts the opponent with a sword. It ignores the opponent's stat changes, dealing damage directly!
Crack.
Bang!
The Mind Barrier could block most attacks, but against the Sacred Sword that ignored stat changes, its powerful defense was rendered useless!
The Doubleblade's blade smashed through the Mind Barrier with a bang, a myriad of cracks spreading outwards from the shattered opening!
The barrier shattered!
"Now's our chance!"
The phantom Entei roared, and fierce flames instantly engulfed the broken barrier!
Surging flames crazily seeped into the barrier along the cracks, scorching the Unown and sending them flying!
The three Entei broke into the Unown's domain, and the phantom Entei concentrated all of its power, spewing out one last blaze of blue-white light!
Perhaps, that was truly "Sacred Fire"?
The flames blasted all of the Unown into the air, and as the Unown were sent flying by the shockwaves, the illusion collapsed at this moment. The white orb of light, the core of the barrier formed by psychic power, shattered completely with a bang!
The Unown slowly fell from the sky, crashing down with a series of crackling sounds, looking dazed and confused! Along with them, the other "Symbolic Tablets" fell to the ground! Those tablets, controlled by them, lit up with a faint blue light and crackled as they turned into light dust and disappeared.
Another of the secret tools passed down from ancient times was lost! Apart from the portion of the tablets in Kiyo's hands, the other tablets had exhausted their power due to resonating with the Unown and disappeared.
The passage to the interdimensional rift also opened at the same time. One of the Unown finally woke up, startled when it saw a large group of people, but immediately ran over excitedly when it saw Kiyo!
Finally, someone came to save them! These Unown... they, they kidnapped me!
"How could I suddenly be dragged away while sleeping in Shinju? That's terrible, I must teach these Unown kids a lesson!" Kiyo soothed Unown E's emotions, looking at the Unown who were still in a state of chaos, flying everywhere.
Well, as expected, the Unown in the Sinnoh region were more well-behaved. They would only stay in ruins or by the roadside, motionless, guarding ancient secrets or simply lazing around.
A white-green glow shone, the Unown's power shattered, which meant that the Mind World created by Xiaomei would also enter its demise at this moment, and the same light also shone on the phantom Entei among the three "Entei".
"Xiaomei, Xiaomei." The phantom Entei murmured, calling out to his daughter.
"Dad?"
"Thank you for being willing to call me Dad." The phantom Entei smiled: "I will return to your dream. I was never meant to exist. Now, I just need to return to where I originally belonged."
The phantom Entei then looked at the other "Entei".
"If there's a chance, we will meet again."
"No, we probably won't meet again." The phantom Entei shook his head, taking one last look at the real Entei, gradually turning into crystals.
"Farewell." The real Entei nodded slightly, bidding farewell to this "fellow" he had just met.
As a created life, the phantom Entei was endowed with strong personality and emotions. During the charge just now, Entei felt its sincere and intense enthusiasm.
As a father, it was qualified! The old life paved the way for the new life, that was the meaning of its existence!
It had perfectly achieved it.
At the same time, Bursting Flame also emitted the same light.
It roared softly, expressing joy at the end of this nightmare journey. For it, at least there would no longer be strange voices calling its name in its dreams and spreading extreme emotions.
Then, it would also return to the ancient dream, back to... its own body.
"Um... the Entei Guard has just been established and is about to disband?" Suicune liked to make sarcastic remarks, gently poking the real Entei with its ribbon, while the real Entei looked embarrassed.
What Entei Guard? That was just an idea that I casually said, I am very loyal to Lord Ho-Oh!
Absolutely no intention of forming a small faction!
Besides, having two more brothers, when encountering big troubles in the future, wouldn't it be possible to call for two more helpers!
"Roar." Bursting Flame stared at Kiyo, nodding slightly, which was considered a farewell.
This cooperation was very pleasant, thank you for your help, human!
If there is a chance... if we can meet again, then I will treat you to something good.
Um... how about fire-roasted bird eggs?
Kiyo blinked, putting his hand in his pocket.
In his pocket, there was a strange "material" that had not crystallized and disappeared, sealed in a box that preserved the scorching charcoal.
[Material: Bursting Flame's Scale.]
[Description: Although it is said to be a scale, it is covered with manes and is protected by a special power, allowing it to be preserved.]
[Effect: Giving it to Fire and Dragon-type Pokémon will slightly enhance their growth. As a material, it can be used to create special TM's.]
[Craftable Moves: Scale Shot, Dragon Voice Boost.]
Oh right...
Kiyo suddenly widened his eyes, when Bursting Flame disappeared... the "scorching charcoal" he gave it also disappeared!
Was it, swiped?
Haha, it seems that there is really a chance to meet again, after all, Bursting Flame is a real Pokémon, for it, this experience is probably just an ancient "dream training".
Xiaomei walked towards the phantom Entei, and the phantom Entei's body was gradually turning into a crystalline transparent form. Kiyo, on the other hand, picked up a fairy tale book, which was Xiaomei's fairy tale book. After the Mind World disintegrated, it fell back to the hall from the top floor.
[Craft: Myth and Fairy Tale Picture Book.]
[Description: A strange fairy tale book that records rare legends. The contents depicted inside seem to have happened a long time ago. An unknown girl rides the phantom Entei, a powerful king commands the Unown to build a crystalline tower, and the power eventually goes out of control, causing the destruction of everything. — Should this kind of thing really be shown to children?]
[Effect: Once the Unown gather, the result will most likely lean towards the content recorded in the fairy tale. Prophecy Value +50%, Mysteriousness +30%, Artistry +80%.]
[You have read the picture book, understood the content and solved the ending in the prophecy, and gained new knowledge.]
[Knowledge: Mythological Painting (Secret) — Your painting, coloring skills, and artistry +300%, Mysteriousness +100%, can create special painting-related items, and make imitations have the same effect as the originals, but can only be used once.]
[Craftable: Rainbow Wing, Silver Wing — Can be upgraded from "Clear Wing", requires Pidgeot's feathers, specific description]
[Craftable: Unown Investigation Notes, Unown Illustrated Book, Ancient Poems, Old Letters, Legend Notes.]
[Craftable: Evil Hanging Scroll, Water Hanging Scroll.]
[Craftable: Brave Man's Painting (Oudoru Town), Birth Relief (Hakutai City), Cathedral Stained Glass (Alto Mare).]
[Craftable: Scarlet Book, Violet Book, Zero's Treasure, Galar Book.]
[Note: There are many things here that are of unclear meaning, and even if used, they will have no effect.]
Whoa! The movie version's item rewards are extraordinary!
"But... indeed, most of the painting items are useless, including the Rainbow Wing and Silver Wing. If they can only be used once, what's the point, wholesale fake heroes?"
"It's not bad as a synthetic material for some crafts, replace the real ones with fake ones, um, the Clear Bell needs the Rainbow Wing, so I don't need to find Ho-Oh now."
If Ho-Oh sees it later, it will shout.
Hey, where did you get this, where did the ten thousand heroes come from!
Marshadow would probably rush to the scene immediately and use Close Combat.
The other... Unown notes are useless.
Scarlet Book, Violet Book... They are sold at the Paldia roadside stalls, but they are just magazines.
Zero's Treasure is just a work by a certain teacher.
Galar Book... Is it really okay to steal the labor results of Dr. Sonia, the author?
Ancient poems and legends are merely drafts recording bizarre stories.
Old letters, however, are somewhat useful. They are letters from the dead in the spirit world to the living in the present world. Once created, they allow the deceased and the living to converse again.
Scroll of Darkness, Scroll of Water, are for evolving a Pokémon called Kubfu. There's only one place in this world that wholesales Kubfu, and that's the Isle of Armor. But if they have genuine scrolls, why would they buy my pirated versions?
"Daddy."
Little Mei, on the other side, watched the phantom Entei depart, then looked at the real Entei.
Hmm... Although identical, this one... isn't Daddy.
Entei and Suicune didn't leave immediately but stared at Koke among the group. They came here to solve a mystery. Although they helped resolve a big problem, the most crucial thing...
What exactly is Gouging Fire? What's its connection to Entei? That guy himself couldn't explain it clearly, just thinking this was his dream. What a confused idiot! Although it has some intelligence, most of its stats are in strength.
"Don't cry." Koke thought for a moment, then took out a new item from his backpack.
Hmm, a temporary carving.
Dream World wood, Clefairy fur, Natu feathers.
With just a bit of carving, Koke's dazzling hand speed left everyone around him unable to react before a new item was formed.
After all, this is just a small 'item'.
"Here, this is for you." Koke handed the crescent moon-shaped ornament that looked like a feather to Little Mei.
Little Mei opened her watery eyes, full of confusion: "What's this?"
"This is the Lunar Wing, a feather possessed by a Pokémon named Cresselia. Of course, this is just a replica, but the effect is almost the same."
[Craft: Lunar Wing (High Imitation).]
[Description: A high-imitation Lunar Wing made with the essence of Celestic Town artisans and unique materials and techniques. It faintly emits a moonlit glow and possesses the power to dispel nightmares.]
[Note: If you wish to see something, you might encounter it in a dream. After all, this is also a kind of sweet dream.]
"Meet your dad in a dream. With this, you won't be troubled by nightmares anymore. You'll definitely be able to meet him again."
"Maybe, he can return to your side."
In this false dream, only this love is forever real.
Saying that, Koke handed back the fairy tale picture book.
This sentence wasn't just a comforting remark.
If the phantom Entei could appear in Little Mei's dream, then it would have a chance to go to the Pokémon Dream World, and once it successfully entered the Dream World.
Then, next, let's meet in the Entralink! Unova, what a magical place!
"Then, where's my real dad?"
Little Mei began to ask. Koke looked at the surrounding Unown, who had just recovered from their dazed state and were staggering, trying to escape back to the alternate dimension. This made Koke shake his head.
After causing trouble, they plan to run away. These brats... Compared to Little Mei, many Unown are more like children who never grow up.
Why can't they learn from those slacking Unown in the Sinnoh region?
"You can't leave yet."
A strange black-red crest appeared on Koke's hand. Unown E, emboldened by its own kind, finally floated up and loudly rebuked!
Yes, that's right! You bunch of guys kidnapped me and forced me to work. You can't leave!
You need to apologize!
"Unown..." The other Unown gathered again, very scared of what they had done!
But!
They dare to do it again next time!
However, the crest on Koke's hand attracted their attention. At the same time, a strong spiritual force sealed the area. Ghost-type attacks are extremely effective against Psychic-type Pokémon!
Therefore, psychics are generally not afraid of espers, after all, they use the same type of power!
"Unown!"
The strange spiritual power, like the aura of the spirit world, made the Unown's hairs stand on end, while the black-red crest made them feel a trace of familiarity. After careful identification...
Huh? It seems like Giratina's crest!
"Unown?"
The Unown blinked, full of question marks.
Where exactly did the human in front of them come from, and how could they have Giratina's crest in their hand?
That guy is the violent clone of the God of Creation!
Wuwu! Spiritual power was squeezing them. The Unown were anxious and quickly apologized!
No, no, no, we won't dare to do it again next time! We're very sorry!
"Your parents were taken to another dimension while investigating you, right? I know you don't like being disturbed, so you pulled the human researchers into another dimension, but that's not a place where humans can survive for long!"
"After putting this child's father into another dimension, you ran over to fulfill her wish because of her call? All this was caused by you brats! This will cause trouble for everyone!"
Koke used both soft and hard tactics, sealing them with spiritual power while scolding them. The Unown trembled, looking very aggrieved.
"The power granted to you by the Sinnoh Grand尊 isn't for you to use randomly!"
"Unown?!" The Unown were shocked!
The human in front of them actually knew about the Sinnoh Grand尊?!
That one is...
"If you do this kind of nonsense again, I'll let Giratina go to another dimension and mess with you." Koke made a threat, and it was very effective! The Unown heard that the violent dragon could enter another dimension... and their eyes widened in fear!
We can't let it in! That guy will eat little Unown, one bite at a time! They don't want to try Giratina's thunder of anger!
Wuwuwu, we will definitely not mess around next time!
The Unown repeatedly admitted their mistakes. Koke confirmed that these brats had finally realized their problem, then released the seal of spiritual power. Then, the Unown immediately created a dimensional tunnel, and two beams of light appeared on the other side of the tunnel!
Those people have been sent back! But they will only be sent back to the coordinates where they disappeared!
"Little Mei..."
A weak call came from the other side of the tunnel, and the little girl's eyes were immediately filled with brilliance: "It's Daddy's voice!"
This time, she remembered and recognized him.
Next, we just need to wait for Dr. Shuri and his wife to return from different ruins. In short, the Emperor of the Crystal Tower incident has finally come to an end!
"Excuse me... Mr. Koke, I have something to confirm."
Kasumi suddenly spoke, her expression slightly serious: "Excuse me... aren't you the craftsman living in Shinju?
"I heard Yuko mention this before. Do you know her?"
The sudden question made Koke slightly stunned, but Entei's low roar interrupted Kasumi's question.
Entei and Suicune also stared at Koke with questioning eyes.
Humans... your affairs have come to an end. Let us ask some questions first. We are very busy, let's cut in line for now.
Not only is there the problem of the ancient dragon, but also where exactly Koke comes from, why he can make stone tablets. The mysteries shrouded in the human in front of them are more than those of us legendary Pokémon!
Legendary humans... is there such a thing?
"Woo..." Suicune growled.
Koke: "Ah, you want to ask about Walking Wake and Gouging Fire? Actually, they have nothing to do with you. They are equivalent to you from another ancient timeline. They are called 'Paradox Pokémon'."
"It's currently unknown whether you appeared first or they appeared first. That's why there's a wonderful connection between you. As for how they came here, only one has come here so far, and I summoned it."
"As for myself, I indeed come from the Shinju Ruins, the starting place of the new world, and I am a descendant of the People of the Opening of the Heart. However, even if I tell you this, you probably won't understand."
Suicune and Entei looked at each other.
What a joke.
Summoning ancient Pokémon from another world, making ancient stone tablets that could never be created by modern people, and the Shinju Ruins, isn't that the secret place mentioned by Ho-Oh?
Hey, hey, could you also be some humanoid Ho-Oh! Could it be Ho-Oh's illegitimate son! Or are you an old monster even older than us?
