Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

"We haven't been around long enough to understand many things."

As Suicune muttered to itself, it paused for a moment.

Since long ago, the Legendary Birds of Ho-Oh have existed, and humans have always viewed the three of them as such. But now, faced with unknown secrets they cannot comprehend, they can only attribute it to their young age and lack of knowledge.

This... is quite peculiar.

To say that there's another version of itself from ancient times... it certainly didn't look like that before it was burned to death!

But Suicune's mind was racing.

It really wanted to meet that ancient dragon that resembled it so much, although it felt like they wouldn't have much to talk about.

If Ho-Oh were to see these Paradox Pokémon, it would surely be shocked! Or perhaps Ho-Oh knows them and even used their forms to create the Legendary Beasts?

Indeed, no matter how you think about it, it doesn't make sense. That's where the 'paradox' in Paradox Pokémon comes from.

"If there's a chance, I'll introduce you. But in Suicune's case... there seem to be three, including Walking Wake."

There are so many Entei that they could start their own mountain, but the same could be said for Raikou and Suicune. After all, there might be another set of Ho-Oh's guardians in Crown City in the Sinnoh region. They have shiny colors, and the reason why those three shiny beasts appeared and protected Crown City seems to be related to Celebi. As for the rest, you'd have to ask Ho-Oh.

Of course, if you count it that way, there would be four "Entei."

Suicune closed its eyes briefly, then opened them again. It thought about something, and let out a low鳴 toward the Moss, an invitation.

Also a declaration of... a challenge!

Because of the special identity of the person before it, Suicune decided to inform Ho-Oh about the Moss's situation. That is, if they could find Ho-Oh's location soon.

Well, if we're going to make a joke, Ho-Oh is nearby as a photographer, after all, Ash is still here.

Ho-Oh News, bringing you daily Pokémon information. Next, we switch to the scene with a report from the front lines by Fearow.

It's hard to know what Ho-Oh does every day. Other legendary Pokémon are generally busy, and those who aren't are sleeping. Even Ho-Oh's counterpart, Lugia, is busy mediating the conflicts between the three legendary birds of the Orange Islands and monitoring the ocean currents of the world.

Only Ho-Oh flies around aimlessly every day, doing nothing. Aside from dropping feathers, it can't be found. The only answer is, "It went to take pictures everywhere."

The special episode gave a reason for Ho-Oh's frequent disappearances, which was that it was beaten to its knees by the Masked Man and taken as a servant.

Of course, in the Ranger spin-off, it "explained" where Ho-Oh went. It was summoned to Oblivia to support the falling Sky Fortress and save the world.

Entei on the side opened its mouth slightly, and it was clear that its expression was full of surprise.

"Actively challenging others... we rarely do such a thing." Entei couldn't help but think of Blast Burn, with whom it had fought side by side before. That guy fought with the Mirage Entei for a long time. It seems... Suicune is also a little restless.

Itchy for a fight, eager to battle!

Pokémon battles are inherently part of the Pokémon's ecology, and even legendary Pokémon are no exception. Appropriate "battles" are beneficial to physical and mental health.

As for legendary Pokémon... well, most of the time, they are the ones being challenged.

The three legendary beasts still have quite a reputation in Johto and Kanto. Many new trainers will immediately enter a fantasy state when they hear their names, imagining that they can defeat any one of the three legendary beasts in battle, then quickly capture them, and thus dominate the league and become a Pokémon champion.

Every day, there are such energetic young trainers looking for them, and people who want to become a Legendary Beast Master are everywhere.

Testing these challengers and observing their bonds, understanding, and personalities with their Pokémon is also one of the jobs of Ho-Oh's guardians. The ultimate outcome of humans and Pokémon can be glimpsed from the actions of these trainers.

Therefore, the three legendary beasts are different from other legendary Pokémon that are challenged. They are happy to accept the challenges of human trainers and make assessments and evaluations.

For example, the boy called Ash in the group of people in front of them.

As the Rainbow Hero, although he is not very strong now, his bond with Pokémon, his pure heart, and his courage, which can be described as reckless or fearless, have earned him high marks from Entei and Suicune.

The kid is a bit reckless, but he has a good heart!

As for the other legendary Pokémon... hopefully, these young trainers will be prepared with Revives and escape tools when they challenge them, and hopefully, those legendary Pokémon won't be too grumpy when they wake up.

"If you have time, how about coming to Ecruteak City with that Pokémon named Walking Wake? Let's set the battle location there."

"Perhaps Ho-Oh will be very interested in you. It seems to have some secret connection with Sinnoh."

"Also... would you like to participate in the Rainbow Trial?"

The Rainbow Trial is a trial given to heroes. Although the definition is very grand, in fact, the entry ticket to the Rainbow Trial, the "Rainbow Wing," is in the hands of many people. Its threshold is not particularly high. In the game, the Rainbow Wing was even found by the TV station director when he was renovating the tower.

Some people even have great ambitions when they are young, but they give up halfway and eventually become ordinary passersby.

Even... without the Rainbow Wing, you can participate in this trial.

It's just that there is one less "examiner in the shadows." Besides, that guy is not easy to talk to. It's actually more convenient without him, and the danger is reduced.

The purpose of inviting Moss is very clear. This guy is a "Legendary Human." Let's just refer to them that way for now! A wonderful human who can make ancient stone tablets, just like human trainers who spend years chasing legendary and rare Pokémon.

Now, Suicune's perception of Moss is like those humans who seek rare Pokémon!

As time goes by, the technology of those villainous characters with evil hearts is getting more and more powerful!

Not long ago, the three legendary birds of ice, fire, and lightning in the Orange Islands were caught and almost turned into collectibles, and the Sea God Lugia was also in a bitter battle, causing drastic changes in the climate of the entire Kanto and Johto regions, almost causing the collapse of the ecological environment.

Facing these increasingly powerful villainous organizations constantly scheming with super technology, we "native Pokémon" can't just indulge in the power of the past. We need to find some clever human helpers!

However, modern technology has a strong sense of alienation and unfamiliarity for them. So, going in the opposite direction and pursuing lost ancient technologies might not be a bad idea!

Strengthening through archaeology, there are many good things from ancient times!

Before, there was ancient technology, but no suitable candidates to use it.

Now, both the technology and the candidates are in place, aren't they!

Well, maybe the reason Lord Ho-Oh temporarily disappeared near Ecruteak City is because it went to search for lost ancient technologies. It is said that in many regions, Lord Ho-Oh has deep connections with those ancient technologies.

"The true meaning of the Rainbow Trial," Entei suddenly whispered, "The stories circulating in human society say that those who see Lord Ho-Oh will obtain eternal happiness, and that power actually comes from humans and Pokémon themselves."

"That is a Wave Guidance called happiness, an extraordinary ability. Lord Ho-Oh can sense this energy from high above, so all life residing on the earth, sky, and ocean can possess this power, and the Wave Guidance of happiness will also increase Lord Ho-Oh's power."

"Although the threshold for the Hero's Trial is low, almost no one has comprehended this Wave Guidance so far, even those personally chosen by Lord Ho-Oh have not obtained it."

"So, obtaining eternal happiness is just a legend because no one can do it." When Entei said this, its eyes were not looking at Komimi, but staring at Satoshi behind him.

Hmm... If we're talking about the best-performing Rainbow Hero recently... of course, it's this child. He will become a "Wave Guidance and Rainbow Double Hero."

There are plenty of fake heroes!

But the true hero... whoever can comprehend the true meaning of this trial, he is the true hero!

"If you can comprehend the Wave Guidance of happiness... then you will definitely be valued by Lord Ho-Oh, and your life will change."

Entei's gaze returned, and it glanced at everyone: "Many people here meet the conditions to comprehend this Wave Guidance, but how to understand the true meaning within... that is the cultivation you must do on your journey."

The newest novel is first published on 69shuba.!

"Those who hold the Rainbow Wing will receive trials and observations from us three Legendary beasts."

However, Entei's words sound like just "roars" to ordinary people; only Komimi can understand the language of Entei and Suicune.

The Wave Guidance of happiness is a setting that appeared in the movie "Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You!". So, Komimi couldn't help but think that maybe the reason Ho-Oh initially chose Satoshi was because Satoshi himself possessed a very strong "Wave Guidance talent."

And, he can also bring happiness to his Pokémon. Satoshi unconditionally protects and loves his Pokémon. With these two conditions, both innate and acquired, he is the best candidate for a hero.

In contrast, there is the evil Wave Guidance, triggered by an evil heart, which will weaken Ho-Oh's power. But this raises another question: pure villains are unlikely to cultivate Wave Guidance, so even if the villains are evil, their hearts are dirty and filthy, or they consider themselves to have great ideals, they cannot master the ability of Wave Guidance.

Moreover, among the various special abilities in the Pokémon world, Wave Guidance is the most accessible power. All life possesses Wave Guidance, and as long as they undergo corresponding training, they can all master it, and Wave Guidance is a kind of "wave."

If the move Wave Bomb can only be learned by a small number of Pokémon, then the common moves such as Water Pulse, Dragon Pulse, Dark Pulse, and Heal Pulse are also side manifestations of Wave Guidance!

In comparison, psychic abilities and spiritual abilities are more dependent on talent.

"Well, I do need to go to Ecruteak City, but the Rainbow Trial..."

Originally, there was a need to go to Mt. Mortar, but now that the Mythical Painting Craft has been obtained, this need has decreased.

In the end, I just wanted to obtain high-level materials like the Rainbow Wing and the Rainbow Rock. With this kind of thinking, I probably won't be able to pass the real trial.

"Thank you for your invitation, but I'm not a Trainer, maybe there's no need to participate..." Komimi hadn't finished his words of refusal when Aegislash excitedly floated over, interrupting Komimi's rejection with a high-pitched voice!

"Yo!"

Of course, we have to participate in this trial!

This is recognition from "one of the gods," right! Do you remember one of the requirements for establishing a country in ancient times? It needed a powerful divine beast to recognize the legitimacy and authority of the country!

"But... we have Calyrex. In any case, in terms of legitimacy, Calyrex is the real king."

Komimi spread his hands.

With Calyrex in its current state of munching on radishes every day and getting along well with everyone, even if Aegislash really intends to establish a country, Calyrex will definitely be the first to raise a radish to congratulate and immediately launch "radish diplomacy."

And there are also the Swords of Justice. As legendary swordsmen, their blessings and recognition are also very precious. Maybe the ancient kings of Unova received their blessings!

"Yo woo ~"

Aegislash waved its ribbons, revealing an expression of "no one understands better than me!"

No one understands better than me how to establish a country!

Recognition from a "divine beast," the more the better! I am determined to obtain the recognition of legendary Pokémon from all over the world! That is my ideal!

"When did you come up with this ideal on a whim..." Komimi also patted his forehead.

Oh well, since my Pokémon wants to do this thing.

Then go and participate!

Anyway, this trial doesn't have a definite start time. You can participate at any time.

"If that's the case... maybe you are the Rainbow Hero." Komimi pointed at Aegislash, his expression a bit strange.

And I am just a logistics craftsman responsible for wholesale Rainbow Wings.

Hmm, let my Pokémon become some kind of hero... like the Hero of Many Battles, Zacian, from Galar? That seems pretty good!

But, if you evolve into Aegislash and are crowned as a hero, will you also become the "King of Swords"? Will Zacian suddenly run over to challenge you and say meaningless things like "The world doesn't need two swords of heroes"?

As for Ho-Oh being interested in me?

Aside from the Rainbow Trial and the Wave Guidance of happiness, it wouldn't want me to help repair the Burned Tower or wholesale bells, would it.
