Not a trainer this time

Poni Island, Village of Ocean Dwellers, 3:00pm.

In order to find Tapu Fin-Fin, Naoki and Gulton arrived at this coastal town in the southwest of Poni Island.

Looking around, this town is really full of Alola characteristics. It is different from the conventional town. The Village of Ocean Dwellers is actually a huge wooden ship!

In the center of the wooden ship, there is a big green tree. The trunk and the building are almost integrated. The green canopy covers a small part of the hull.

There are many ports extending outward on both sides of the wooden ship, and several strange-shaped ships are parked at the end.

Steelix Ship, Whale King Ship, Magikarp Ship, Grouper Hunting Ship...

It was afternoon, and the local residents were leisurely resting in the town, and some children about four or five years old were chasing and playing with each other.

The sky is blue and the water is clear. The warm sunshine falls on the earth. With the cry of long-winged gulls coming from afar, waves gather on the sparkling sea, gently hitting the shore.

The air is filled with a leisurely and tranquil atmosphere, as if you have come to a paradise.

"This place is so beautiful!" Naoki couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, in addition to Melemele Island, there are many places in the Alola region that have not been developed and still maintain the past living habits.

Naoki and Gulerton walked into the town and looked at the townspeople and Pokémon who greeted each other with "Alola". They immediately felt a strong local customs.

The town is not big, and most of the people living here know each other. Because they suddenly saw a stranger coming, they all cast curious eyes towards this side.

There are also some bold and enthusiastic people who took the initiative to greet Naoki.

"Alola! Are you from outside?"

Naoki looked at the girl who was talking. The girl was wearing traditional Alola clothes. Her skin was tanned by the sun, but her big eyes were bright and she was looking at this side curiously.

He smiled and nodded: "Alola, that's right."

The girl was even more surprised when she heard the man say Alola.

Facing her look, Naoki raised his eyebrows: "Isn't this the greeting used in the Alola region?"

"That's right!" The girl nodded: "You learned it too, Alola!"

"Alola!" Naoki repeated again.

He knew that this sentence meant "hello" in the Alola region.

Gulton on the side also imitated and said: "Ah, gah!"

Seeing this scene, the girl was amused and giggled. She immediately had a better impression of this person and that Pokémon, so she invited them warmly:

"Is this your first time to our Ocean Dwellers Village? If possible, let me take you to visit this place!"

"Eh? Can I?" Naoki was a little surprised. The people here are so enthusiastic!

"Of course!" The girl introduced herself: "My name is Kirari, and I am an expert in Fairy Eevee! Come on, come on!"

"Sorry to bother you!" Naoki smiled. It happened that he was unfamiliar with the place, and it would be much easier to have a local to show him around.

Then, he followed Kirari to visit the village.

Kirari pointed to the big ship in the shape of King Whale in the northwest and introduced:

"That's the restaurant in the town! You can take your Pokémon there at night. The seafood noodles in the restaurant are very delicious!"

"The big Steelix ship next to it is where trainers gather. The hull is as hard as steel, so many trainers often gather there to fight Pokémon!"

Naoki listened with interest. At this time, he saw the Magikarp ship on the other side and asked, "Is that the ship over there?"

Kirari looked in that direction and replied, "That's the boat in the village. The Magikarp ship on the east side can go to Haole City, Kangdai City and Ether Paradise, and the ship on the west side goes to Coconut Tree Island!"

"I recommend you to go to Coconut Tree Island. It is an undeveloped island on the sea of ​​Poni Island and a special protection area of ​​Alola. There are many cute eggs and Alola Coconut Trees living on the island!"

Alola Coconut Tree... That is a Pokémon with grass + dragon attributes.

Very suitable for crossing, Naoki thought.

The village is small, so it didn't take long for Kirari to introduce the more famous places and facilities.

She turned her head and asked innocently: "But what are you doing here, big brother?"

"Me?" Naoki smiled and said: "Actually, I came to participate in the island tour, but there seems to be no island king on Poni Island, so I plan to find the guardian god here, Tapu Finfin, and receive the test content from it."

Hearing this, Kirari covered her mouth in surprise: "Island tour? Big brother is so awesome!"

Naoki was puzzled: "What's so awesome about this?" He remembered that children in the Alola region could participate!

Kirari answered with admiration: "Because only very powerful trainers can challenge the island tour! Fight with the dominant Pokémon, get Z bracelets and Z moves, and get the recognition of the island king!"

Hearing this, Naoki thought about it carefully and found that it seemed to be true.

Just like challenging gyms to collect badges, not everyone can fight in gyms.

"However, as long as you work hard, even if you can't defeat the Overlord Pokémon, your spirit will definitely be recognized by them." Naoki said.

"Yes!" Kirari nodded happily, and then volunteered: "Brother, do you want to find the patron saint Kapu Finfin? In that case, let me help! Let's go to the elder, the elder will definitely Do you know where Capu Fin lives?"

With that said, Kirari pulled Naoki and ran to a wooden house in the center of the village.

She stood on tiptoes and knocked on the door: "Elder Haisen, we have a visitor!"

After a while, the door opened, and a bald old man walked out. There was a thick white beard under the old man's nose.

"What's going on? Little Kirari?"

Kirari: "The big brother here is a trainer who came to participate in the island tour. He wants to find our patron saint Kapu Finfin and complete the test of the patron saint!"

"What? Touring the islands?" The old man was shocked and quickly looked at the man next to him.

Naoki showed him his certificate of island tour: "This is the certificate that I participated in the island tour, and now I have completed the test of Melemele Island."

The old man took the certificate and looked at it for a few times, and then felt confused: "But... there is no king of the island on Poni Island anymore, and the patron saint has not appeared for a long time..."

The King of the Island was chosen by the patron saint, but since the death of the last King of the Island, Kapu Fin Fin has never appeared in the town again.

"Ah? What should we do?" Kirari was very worried.

The old man thought about it carefully, and then gave a place where Kapu Fin Fin might be.

"However, there is a ruins on the other side of the island used to worship the patron saint on the southeast corner of Poni Island. It was called the place where life ends by people in the past. You should go there and have a look. There were tourists who witnessed it nearby a few days ago. Patron Saint, maybe the Patron Saint will show up after sensing your thoughts.”

Relics on the other side? After getting the clue about Kapu Fin Fin, Naoki immediately nodded, and then expressed his gratitude to Kirari and the old man.

"Thank you very much, Elder Heisen, and Chilari. Thank you for taking me to visit the village. This is a specialty from my hometown. Just take it as a thank you gift!"

With that said, Naoki took out a few bottles of life goat milk and energy cubes from his backpack and sent them out.

"goodbye!"

Kirari stared blankly at the gifts in her arms. Before she could recover, she saw the other party leaving with the Pokémon.

*

Poni Island, east of Poni Gulang Rock Shore.

Following the map app's navigation, Naoki successfully arrived at this ancient ruins used to worship Kapu Fin Fin.

He looked around calmly, but found no trace of Kapu Fin Fin.

Naoki carefully recalled the content related to Kapu·Fin.

As far as he knew, Capu Finfin was different from Capu Chirping. Capu Finfin did not like Pokémon battles. It loved the land of Poni Island very much and would not see anyone doing anything that would destroy the land. They will be punished immediately during activities.

In the anime, it was because of a Pokémon battle between Ash and Kachi at the ruins of the other side that they angered Kapu Finfin.

The Pokémon's moves destroyed the land, making Kapu Fin very angry, so he appeared here and used the thick fog to trap Ash and Kachi.

Thinking of this, an idea immediately popped into Naoki's mind.

Got it!

Since Pokémon battle can attract Capu Fin's attention, he will use this method to attract Capu Fin!

Naoki immediately took out a Poke Ball from his pocket.

White light flashed, and the figure of Babu Tubo appeared in the ruins. It looked at the surrounding environment in confusion: "Bamo?"

This time when he went out, Zhi Shu only took four Pokémon with him: Guluton, Baboo, Kuailong, and Mount Goat. The other Pokémon stayed in the pasture to bask in the sun.

"Babu Tubo, come and fight Guledun!" Zhi Shu said.

Hearing this, Babu Tubo and Guluton were both shocked.

"Bamo?!"

"Ah gah?!"

"Of course, I don't really want you to fight, I'm just here to put on a show to attract the Pokémon named Kapu Fin!" Naoki said in a low voice: "Pay attention, try to use as little words as possible. Powerful moves, don’t destroy the land of this place.”

The two Pokémon immediately understood Naoki's plan.

"Bamo..." Babu Tubo breathed a sigh of relief.

Therefore, Luton also had a look of astonishment on his face.

"Then, let's start!" Naoki said.

"Bamo!"

"Ah gah!"

Baboo and Gulton immediately started a Pokémon battle in a decent manner.

Babu Tupo picked up his small hammer and rushed forward fiercely. Gu Lerton also looked serious and clenched his right paw to meet him.

The two Pokémon collided together, making a "rumbling" sound.

Therefore, Luton and Babu hinted at each other with their eyes.

The next second, a yellow current was released from Babu Tudou's body and enveloped Gulton's body.

"Ah, hiss!" Guluton immediately let out a cry of pain.

However, the thunder was loud and the raindrops were light.

The electricity released by Babu Tudou has only ten volts of power and will not cause any harm to Gulton at all.

Seeing Gu Ledun's appearance, Babu Tubo couldn't help being speechless and whispered: "Bamo..."

Gulton roared, turned around and used "close combat" against Babu Tubo, throwing Babu Tubo away.

Gulton used little strength, and Babu Tubo stabilized its body as soon as it was thrown out, but it thought of Naoki's instructions, and fell back very cooperatively, with a painful expression on its face and a painful sound in its mouth.

"Bamo!"

Gulton: "...Ah, gash." You're still talking about it!

Naoki glanced at the two Pokémon acting, and then began to pay attention to the situation around him.

At first, it was fine.

But as the battle between Gulton and Babu Tubo became more and more intense, gradually, a faint mist began to appear around the ruins.

Tapu Finfin was attracted!

Very good, Naoki was very satisfied, and said to the two Pokémon at the same time: "Keep going!"

In a hidden corner, Tapu Finfin stared angrily at the two Pokémon that destroyed its beloved land.

This behavior should be punished!

"Finfin!"

Tapu Finfin made an angry cry.

In an instant, more fog appeared in the air.

The fog continued to spread and soon enveloped the entire ruins.

"Gulton, Babu Tubo!"

Almost in the blink of an eye, the surrounding scene turned completely white. Naoki immediately called out to Gulton and Babu Tubo, asking them to come to his side.

However, a strange thing happened. At a distance of only four or five meters, Naoki did not receive a response from the two Pokémon!

His heart sank, and then he ran in the direction of Gulton and Babu Tubo. However, he ran for three minutes and could not find Babu Tubo and Gulton.

Instead, a "door" emitting a faint light appeared in front of him.

Naoki: "?"

At the same time, Tapu Finfin, who was controlling the thick fog, suddenly felt a terrifying breath.

The fog released by it was out of control!

Tapu Finfin showed a surprised expression on his face. He clearly felt that an unknown force had intervened!

"Finfin..." Tapu Finfin looked at his hands in disbelief.

At this moment, a magnificent and sacred voice of unknown gender sounded in his ears.

"Don't be nervous, leave this to me!"

"Finfin?!" Tapu Finfin turned his head quickly and looked around, but he saw nothing.

"I'm here." The voice sounded again.

Tapu Finfin turned his head to the right, and then he saw a tall figure emitting holy light.

Infinite power emerged from his body, and the light was so sacred that it would make people want to worship from the bottom of their hearts.

At this glance, Tapu Finfin felt as if he had seen the Pokémon called the God of Light by humans tens of millions of years ago, Ultimate Necrozma!

But the aura emanating from the other party was very different from that of the God of Light...

At this moment, Tapu Finfin couldn't help but ask, "Finfin?" (Who are you?)

Arzeus didn't turn his head, but his voice rang out of thin air:

"My name is Arceus, and I am the creator of this world."
