Pokémon: Chosen Ranger

The Mask-Making Festival is the most lively festival in Beishang Township. There are various stalls on both sides of the street. Each stall is hung with bright colored lights, illuminating the large characters on the cloth.

The steaming octopus balls stall, the stall owner and the octopus bucket dare not stop for a moment, and the sweet-smelling apple candy stall, the best sign is the honey worms.

There are stalls with strange toys and games. The most popular stall among these stalls is the mask stall. The most popular one is the mask of Ergui.

The once most popular Sanbaoban mask was left indifferent, and everyone put on the mask of Ergui Pun, with happy expressions on their faces, enjoying the brand new mask festival.

"Boni oh~ Bonnie oh~"

Ergui's arms were filled with the food that the stall owners had given it, and it was happily enjoying the delicious food that it had not tasted for a long time.

Xia Ye put on Beishang Township's unique clothes and wore a mask given by the stall owner, but he always felt a little familiar.

"Xia Ye, sister, there is a lottery booth there, let's go and have a look!"

Wu Li, who was holding apple candy in his hand, pointed to the stall in front, and Dan Yu also showed an excited expression:

"Uh-huh! Let's go quickly. We must earn back the pocket money we just spent!"

In front of the lottery stall, in addition to the stall owner, there was also a masked assistant. Dan Yu, who was excited, was the first to take action, and then happily won the fourth prize and went north to sticky cakes.

Then Wuli slowly stretched out his hand, and then happily won the fourth prize and went to the north to make sticky cakes.

"Leave it to you, Xia Ye!"

"Add some oil, Xia Ye!"

Facing the expectations of her siblings, Xia Ye slowly stretched out her hand, then shook the lottery machine violently, and then a small silver ball rolled out. The stall owner immediately shook the bell and shouted:

"Congratulations, it's the second prize, Fairy Feather!"

"Great!"

"As expected of Xia Ye!"

"Then, please come with me to get the prize." The masked man said in a low voice.

Xia Ye nodded, followed him to the back of the stall, and asked directly: "Is it time?"

"Well, the rest is up to you, me." He took off his mask and put it on his head. There was no doubt that he was Xia Ye.

"Of course, I will protect Ergui." Xia Ye showed a determined look, then turned into light and disappeared in place, returned to the Sunset Forest in the past, and then rushed to Beishang Township without stopping.

In this way, the cycle of history was reconnected.

Xia Ye reappeared holding a dreamy feather in his hand, then approached the stall owner and said: "Just now another man wearing a mask called away the boss's assistant. He asked me to talk to you."

"Oh, I understand, thank you for conveying it, little brother." The boss nodded, and then muttered in a low voice: "Did the Ghost Noodle Group have any new arrangements? Forget it, they are just temporary help anyway."

"What beautiful feathers!" Dan Yu's eyes lit up as she looked at the feathers in Xia Ye's hands.

"This feather can increase the power of fairy-type moves. It is a very good prop." Wuli explained, obviously they did not see the change in Xia Ye.

But Eguifen discovered it, and the food that was brought to his mouth stopped in the air. Xia Ye, it turns out that he can do magic. It’s really amazing~

Happy time is always short-lived. Tonight's mask-masking ceremony is over, but Ergui doesn't want to leave. This is the place where it met Xia Ye, and it wants to express its feelings here.

"Bonnie!"

In front of the shrine, Ergui held Xia Ye's hand tightly and looked firmly at the Poke Ball on Xia Ye's waist. I don't want to be separated from you anymore, so I want to be your Pokémon!

"I finally expressed this feeling, Egui Pun." Dan Yu said happily.

"Xia Ye, you said you were here to participate in the Mask-Making Festival, right? That means you are leaving soon, so take the Egui Pulse with you!" Wuli shouted, "Only by your side can it be free and unrestrained. Put on a smile!”

"Yes, I understand." Xia Ye took out the elf ball.

But Eguifen shook his head, took out the Fire Stove Mask, and shouted:

"Gah, Bonnie!"

"Really? You also want to fight. I understand. Come on, Eguifen, let me see your power!" Xia Ye understood Eguifen's intentions.

"Boo! Wow!"

Putting on the Fire Stove Mask, Ergui's original green coat turned fiery red. As it shouted, shining crystals suddenly appeared surrounding Ergui and then shattered. It actually had the ability to independently transform into crystals!

Then, the Fire Stove Mask instantly became huge and was wrapped in shining crystals. The mask turned into an evil ghost with huge horns on its head, its mouth opened wide, and shining flames burned around it.

For some reason, Xia Ye could clearly feel Ergui's mood. It was anger, endless burning flames!

Being misunderstood, excluded, and losing close friends.

Carrying the notoriety alone, he was confused, sad, and lonely, which eventually turned into endless anger.

During the long night, has it ever thought about taking revenge on humans to calm down the flames of revenge that are constantly burning in its heart?

The angry and roaring evil spirit is the embodiment of this feeling. Xia Ye took out the elf ball and let me eliminate your anger, Ergui!

The elegant Menas appeared in front of Xia Ye, Queen of the Lake, please calm down this anger.

The fire was extinguished by the huge waves, the Fire Stove Mask was shattered, and Ergui Chu's figure became unstable. What he experienced with Xia Ye turned into its power. Then it took out the Well Mask and put on a water blue coat.

Yes, it was you who showed up when I was at my lowest, preventing me from being controlled by anger and falling into endless loneliness, and giving me hope to move on.

The well mask transformed into a weeping woman, and shining waves surrounded the mask.

Is it sad this time?

The source of trouble that always troubles me is the sadness of losing a close friend.

Just like a well, the water of sadness keeps pouring out, trying to drown it.

Xia Ye took back Menas and sent Miss Quer. Let this healing fragrance take you away from sadness, Ergui!

The well was filled with fragrance, and the well mask was broken. Yes, it was you who helped me take back the important mask and the bonds that belonged to me, so I could get out of the sadness and look forward!

Be happy again!

Ergui took out the foundation stone mask, and the mask turned into a grinning ghost, stretching out its shining rock hair.

Happiness, yes, this is what Ergui should be like. Carefree happiness is its cornerstone, just like this rock mask!

Angry, sad, finally finding happiness, it's so good, Erguifen.

Xia Ye took back Miss Kuo'er, and then sent out the Thundering Diamond Ape, play music, and let this joy reach its peak!

The foundation stone mask broke with laughter in the sound of drums, and I remembered that carefree happiness, ah, Xia Ye, Wuli, Danyu, Shali, it is so great to know you.

Because I can finally laugh.

Ergui took out the last mask, the Green Grass Mask.

A huge mask of maniacal laughter, surrounded by shining green vines.

Unbridled laughter!

This joy is not restricted by anything, it comes from the true bliss!

Xia Ye withdrew the Thundering Diamond Ape, and then sent out the Steel-Armored Crow. Come on, laugh wildly together, don't care about other people's eyes, and enjoy the joy!

The green grass mask shattered in the strong wind, and I remembered that my close friend who was like a father and I still didn't feel sad even if we were ostracized by the villagers, and lived happily without caring about their eyes, even if our small home was dark and narrow!

What I have lost over a long period of time is this bliss, my source of strength, my feelings, the huge shining mask, the resonance with my feelings, the reflection of my face!

Ah, the time spent with you has even surpassed my most precious memories, so I can regain this bliss. Thank you, Xia Ye, it’s so great to meet you.

Behind the finally broken mask is Ergui's happy smile. Its smile tells Xia Ye, throw the ball, being with you is exactly what I long for!

The only way I can think of to respond to your companionship and happiness is to become your Pokémon!

"I understand, thank you for choosing me, Erguifen."

Xia Ye threw the elf ball without any shaking, because they had already established an unbreakable bond!
