Not a trainer this time

May 12, 200th year of the Alliance Calendar.

The Great Hero Expedition Team and Xiaozhi and his party returned to the Hoenn region smoothly.

Naoki, who was far away in Padiya, received a message from Mew and Baby Bear.

It said that they had successfully delivered the leaf to the Faunus region and parted ways with Xiaozhi and his party.

Jirachi no longer needed to stay in the Faunus region to nourish the earth. It wanted to see the outside world like those ordinary Pokémon.

Therefore, after saying goodbye to Absol and other Pokémon in the Faunus region, Jirachi chose to embark on a journey with the Great Hero Expedition Team.

Looking at the photo sent by Baby Bear on the mobile phone screen, Naoki couldn't help but smile.

The background of the photo was the Faunus region. When the photo was taken, it seemed that the Millennium Comet just passed over it.

Under the starry sky, Mew, Baby Bear, and Zapdos surrounded Jirachi.

They looked at the camera, and all of them showed happy expressions on their faces.

"Ah, this is so good!"

Naoki was very satisfied with this ending.

In this way, Jirachi would no longer have to endure that pitiful fate.

From now on, it can fly freely in the sky like most Pokémon in this world.

Naoki saved the photo to his mobile phone and prepared to print it out for collection.

He did it right away. Naoki ordered a machine specially used for printing photos from the Internet and sent a mailman Dragonite to pick it up.

Thirty minutes later, Dragonite returned to the ranch with the machine.

Naoki imported the photo into it, and soon, the photo recording the story of the hero's expedition team and Jirachi was printed out.

"Ah, gah?"

Seeing Naoki busying himself there, Gulden's big head came over, as if he wanted to see what he was doing.

Naoki touched Gulden's head and answered it: "I'm printing photos."

"Ah, gah!"

Gulden saw the baby bears in the photo and suddenly understood.

A new idea suddenly emerged in Naoki's mind.

——He wanted to buy a camera and an album to take pictures of the Pokémon in the ranch and preserve their [present]!

Although devices such as Rotom phones can store more conveniently, Naoki still thinks that paper photos are more memorable and nostalgic.

That afternoon, he went to the department store in the town of Zheqin to buy a camera and a family album.

As soon as he returned to the ranch, Naoki called the Pokémon in the ranch and took pictures of them.

Babu, Frostmilk, Gulton, Motor Lizard, Dragonite, Butterfree, Three Bees, Milky Can, Three Diglett, Saltstone Giant, Snorlax, Eevee, Braided Sheep, Psyduck, Erra, Sefer, Love Butler Brothers and Sisters, Flutter Hair...

For taking pictures, most of the Pokémon in the ranch are experiencing it for the first time, so they are all very curious about Naoki's actions.

Butterfree flew to Naoki's side and looked at the camera that was being adjusted with curiosity: "Fu-ee?"

"Bu-ee-bu-ee!"

The Eevees also gathered around and scratched Naoki's legs with their paw pads, indicating that they also wanted to see it.

Naoki squatted down and showed them the camera screen.

The camera lens was aimed at the Dragonite in front of him. An Eevee accidentally touched a button. The next second, the picture on the screen began to enlarge, and the big face of Dragonite appeared on the screen.

"Bu-ee!"

The Eevees exclaimed, it was Dragonite!

Naoki aimed the camera at his partner Eevee and pressed the shutter.

With a click, the face of his partner Eevee was frozen on the screen.

"Bamo!"

Babu-Dog saw the photo of Eevee and was very envious. It also wanted to take a photo!

Other Pokémon also wanted to play together.

Naoki saw what they meant, and smiled and said to the Pokémon in front of him:

"Okay, then you can play like usual, don't worry about me, I will follow you and take the most natural photos."

Then, the Pokémons started playing in the pasture as usual.

Naoki walked around them and kept pressing the shutter.

Eevees enjoying the cool in the shade.

Psyducks sitting in a row.

Dragonite flying in the sky.

Gulden's handsome look back.

Braided sheep basking in the sun on the grass.

Flame Eevee in front of the fireplace.

At night, the Pokémons returned to their nests.

Naoki took the opportunity to continue to capture their sleeping faces.

Unknowingly, hundreds of photos were stored in the camera.

When the Pokémon in the house fell asleep, Naoki did not go to bed immediately, but sat at the desk, turned on the desk lamp, and put the printed photos into the album one by one in the moonlight outside the window.

In the darkness behind him, Gulden yawned lazily, looked up at Naoki's back, then lay on the floor with peace of mind and slowly fell asleep.

After putting the album together, Naoki gently flipped through the photos of Pokémon on it.

Pokémon playing, Pokémon in a daze, Pokémon flying...

Looking at these photos, Naoki's heart softened.

Ah, Pokémon are so cute!

He put away the photo album, turned around and came to his partner Ibrahimovic who was sleeping soundly in the nest, and kissed it with his head down.

Ibrahimovic was not awakened, but moved his body comfortably, with his four legs facing up, revealing his furry and soft belly.

This means that this Ibrahimovic is very relaxed at the moment, and it trusts the surrounding environment very much.

So cute! Naoki thought.

He smiled and went back to bed, looked at Gulden sleeping beside the bed and Babu Tubo sleeping at the end of the bed, and closed his eyes with ease.

What a happy day.

It's time to go to bed!

The next morning, Naoki got up early and started a new day's work.

It was summer, and the weather was very hot, which greatly increased people's demand for watermelons.

Naoki received a large number of watermelon orders every day.

Because Dragonite's delivery speed is very fast, it often only takes half an hour to deliver the goods to the door.

Those customers who ordered from Naoki Ranch don't have to worry about the watermelons going bad on the way.

Early in the morning, the working Dragonites lined up to receive watermelons from Naoki one after another, and then flew to various places in Padiya with them.

"Huh!"

After sending off the Dragonites and checking that there were no missed orders, Naoki breathed a sigh of relief.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the sun gradually became hotter, and the wind blew with rolling heat waves.

Naoki stood under the eaves and squinted his eyes to look at the distant back mountain.

The weather was too hot, even the cicadas in the back mountain were no longer chirping. Looking out, you can see the Rich Shrine surrounded by lush trees from afar.

Compared to the real world, the temperature in the reverse world is normal and very cool.

Therefore, Eevee, Eruption, Saifu, Frostmilk, Butterfree and other Pokémon all ran there to escape the heat.

The mount goat also went to the World Tree to teach the mount lamb.

Now only Naoki and Guldon are left in the ranch.

Just as Naoki was about to go back to the room to rest, Gulden, who was enjoying the cool breeze under the eaves, seemed to suddenly notice it, opened his eyes suddenly, and looked in one direction.

"Ah Ga Si?!"

The motorcycle lizard next to him also raised his head.

"Huh?" Naoki turned to look at Gulden and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gulden changed from a squatting position to a large golden-haired form with four legs on the ground.

It let out an "Ah Ga Si" sound, then rushed out suddenly, rushed into a bush, and took out a group of green unknown creatures like caterpillars from it with its mouth.

Gulden returned to Naoki with the group of creatures in his mouth, opened his mouth, and put it on the wooden floor.

When Naoki saw the appearance of the thing clearly, he was stunned.

This is... Zygarde's cell? !

What's going on? ! How could Zygarde's cells appear in the Padya region?

Naoki reached out and picked up the trembling "cell".

The group of cells seemed very scared. When it was picked up, it instinctively arched into Naoki's palm.

"Gaaa?"

Motor Lizard tilted its head and looked at the unknown creature, full of confusion. What is that?

Naoki saw what Motor Lizard was thinking and explained to it:

"It should also be considered a Pokémon, right?"

Zygarde, the third god of the Kalos region, the famous Z God, is also the guardian of the ecosystem, and has been silently monitoring every move of the ecosystem.

In the anime, because the Kalos region is full of tree-shaped negative energy cores, this Z God also left Xiaozhi's Greninja alone to help "cut trees".

Among all the legendary Pokémon, Zygarde is a very special existence.

Because it can differentiate itself into the form of "core" and "cell", and spread them throughout nature.

If it encounters danger, these cells will begin to gather and transform into Zygarde to show its skills.

The little soft picked up by Yurika in the anime is the core of Zygarde.

The one that appeared in his ranch now was a cell.

Looking at the cell in his hand, Naoki suddenly had a bold guess in his mind.

Could it be that this cell was sent by Zygarde to act as a monitor?

As we all know, cells have no self-will and can only follow the instructions of the core.

There is no Zygarde in the Padiya region. The cell appeared here, and it is very likely that Zygarde sent it here.

But Naoki was a little uncertain.

Because as the guardian of the ecosystem, it is not strange for Zygarde to appear anywhere. It monitors not only the ecosystem of the Kalos region, but the whole world is within its protection range.

"Gulton, have you seen this guy near the ranch before?" Naoki asked.

"Ah gah..."

Gulton shook his big head. He had seen it when he was still a motorcycle lizard, but he hadn't seen it since he became a Gulerton.

"Is that so." Naoki thought.

Could it be that this cell was attracted by the breath of the world tree?

After all, if the world tree is born, it will be of great benefit to the entire ecosystem.

No matter which possibility it is, Zygarde has no ill will towards them.

So after a brief thought, Naoki took the cell back home.

This thing can combine to form a Gundam!

First collect them, maybe the World Tree will attract more Zygarde cells and cores in the future.

Then he will bring them all home to see if he can build a Gundam.

The Bud Crown, who was playing with his phone in the living room with the air conditioner on, suddenly sensed a strange breath.

He raised his eyes and saw the green unknown creature in Naoki's palm.

The Bud Crown was slightly stunned: "What is that?"

"It?" Naoki replied with a smile: "It's Xiaoruan."

"Xiaoruan?" The Bud Crown looked surprised.

"I gave it a new name!" Naoki said, while taking out some snacks that Pokémon like from the cupboard and trying to feed Xiaoruan.

But this group of green cells did not eat, it instinctively arched into Naoki's palm, and seemed very nervous.

Naoki was not surprised to see this scene.

Because Zygarde's cells do not have self-will, it may not need to eat like other Pokémon, it only needs to absorb some natural energy or sunlight and water to survive.

He thought about it carefully, then put the little soft on the windowsill, and put a piece of snack and a small dish of water next to it.

The cell lay there motionless, occasionally blinking, as if observing this place.

I don’t know how long it took, but the little soft seemed to have no energy.

It slowly crawled a short distance, came to the snack, opened its small mouth, and began to eat instinctively.

At the same time, in the Kalos region, in the End Cave.

Zygarde saw everything it encountered through its cells.

That human has a very strong natural energy. Did the previous breath come from it?

Zygarde was very confused. Was the other party a human chosen by the ecosystem?

And when it saw that the human actually named its cell "Little Soft", the whole Pokémon was silent.

Little Soft...

It is Zygarde, the guardian of order, how could it be called this name? !

"No, we know too little. We need to monitor for a while before we can draw a conclusion."

The green light in the End Cave gradually subsided, and Zygarde continued to monitor the ecosystem outside.

Hoenn region.

In a huge volcano, Daigo looked solemnly at the slender man opposite him, who had red hair, black-framed glasses, and exuded a calm and calm aura.

The fiery red magma flowed slowly, and many humans and Pokémon such as Coyote Dogs wearing Lava Team uniforms lay on the ground around them.

The scars on their bodies all represent how fierce a battle had just taken place here.

"Why do you want to stop me?" Chi Yansong asked calmly: "The purpose of doing all this is only to expand the area of ​​​​the land and increase the activity space of humans and Pokémon. It has great benefits for both humans and Pokémon."

Behind him, a huge Pokémon covered with a red shell was sleeping in the magma with its eyes closed.

Daigo's expression was extremely serious. He tried to stop this extreme man:

"That would only destroy the balance of the world! Let the earth fall into an endless purgatory! At that time, both humans and Pokémon will be seriously affected!"

"Hmph, even if you are the champion, you can't stop me, look!" Chi Yansong stretched out his arms, as if to show Daigo the Pokémon behind him: "Look, this sleeping super ancient Pokémon Groudon, how beautiful! For this day to come, I have been waiting for a long time! No one can stop me!"

Daigo frowned, he clenched the Poké Ball in his hand, and the Metagross next to him reliably guarded in front of him.

Beside Chi Yansong, a fire-breathing camel was slowly tapping the ground with its toes, looking ready to go.

A big battle is about to start!

The same scene was staged in the underwater cave at the same time.

Shui Wutong laughed wildly:

"Hahahaha... I really sympathize with you! You took so much trouble to get here with me, but now... no one can stop us! No one! Even without the Orb, we can forcefully wake up Kyogre!"

Mikoli glanced at the sleeping Kyogre with an elegant posture.

He raised his mouth slightly and whispered: "It seems that there is no way to get back to Liuli City before dark today. I don't know how Daigo is doing, but Milotic, we can't let that guy down!"

"Woo!"

Accompanied by a melodious cry, Milotic beside Michaeli rushed out in the direction of Shui Wutong.
