“Come, try wearing it.”
Bai Luo added a trace of his own power into the mask.
Although it was only a tiny bit, compared to the Pokémon in the Pokémon world, it was still a considerable amount of terrifying energy.
“Boné.”
Looking at Ogerpon again, she nervously reached out to take the mask, and then carefully put it on.
In an instant, the colorful Tera energy filled the entire cave.
By the time the Pokémon reacted, Ogerpon's body had already transformed into a crystal-clear gemstone.
And in front of her, the Teal Mask floated in the air like a shield.
Gorgeous and dazzling!
This was Terastallization, unique to the Paldea region in the Pokémon world.
However, unlike ordinary Terastallization, Ogerpon didn't have a Tera Jewel appear on her body. Instead, her mask underwent an incredibly strange change.
“Rather than saying Ogerpon Terastallized, it's more accurate to say that the mask she wears Terastallized.”
Bai Luo casually sensed it and discovered that Ogerpon was indeed an extremely special Pokémon.
She could create various changes and obtain various exclusive abilities by linking with different Tera energies.
“Boné!”
On the other side, Ogerpon canceled the Terastallization and excitedly jumped in front of Bai Luo.
She narrowed her eyes, a curve appearing at the corner of her mouth, smiling like a little fox who had stolen a hen.
Today was the happiest day for Ogerpon in hundreds of years.
Not only did she meet Bai Luo, a human who wasn't afraid of her, but he also repaired her broken mask.
Ogerpon likes Bai Luo!
Ogerpon stuffed the Teal Mask into her cloak, then spread her arms, striking a flying pose.
She circled around Bai Luo.
Even the four women in the Sanctuary could feel her happy mood.
“Boné~~”
Finally, after the excitement passed, Ogerpon expressed her feelings to Bai Luo.
She wanted to live with Bai Luo!
“Then, welcome to the team, Ogerpon.”
Bai Luo used his power to condense a special Poké Ball.
This Poké Ball was more like a door connecting Bai Luo's Sanctuary to the outside world.
Not only Ogerpon, but also Charmander and the others' Poké Balls were replaced with this one by Bai Luo.
As for why he still needed to use a Poké Ball to catch her...
That was naturally to respect the rules of this world.
Since he was a Pokémon Trainer, catching Ogerpon with a Poké Ball and saying, “Ogerpon, I caught you!”
Wasn't that normal?
Anyway, the Poké Ball was just for show. The Pokémon caught by Bai Luo would always accompany him, along with his Sanctuary.
“Boné.”
Ogerpon stared at the Poké Ball in Bai Luo's hand.
She had seen this thing in Kitakami and knew it was a tool used by Trainers to catch Pokémon.
Ogerpon didn't resist.
She took a step forward and happily touched the Poké Ball, then turned into a ray of light and was absorbed into it.
Although it was just a show, it still had the functions of a Poké Ball.
However, the Poké Ball only flashed once before completing the capture.
Without any resistance, Ogerpon willingly became Bai Luo's Pokémon.

“Boné!”
“Kowa~~”
Coming out of the Poké Ball, Ogerpon began to play with Charmander, Vulpix, and the others.
The little guy was very happy, completely without the wariness and fear she had shown when they first met.
Bai Luo looked at them and also felt healed.
You can rest in peace now, right?
Closing his eyes, Bai Luo followed a certain gaze and turned his head to look.
There was nothing there.
But Bai Luo could see that near the Paradise Barrens, there was a faint will silently watching him.
The Pokémon world has ghosts.
Not Ghost-type Pokémon, but real ghosts.
Obviously, the man from before had died.
But his soul, carrying an obsession, still lingered in the world.
Was it because he couldn't rest easy about Ogerpon that he was unwilling to leave?
Bai Luo was moved by the deep bond between Pokémon and people in the Pokémon world: Don't worry about Ogerpon, I will take good care of her.
Perhaps due to the erosion of time, the man's soul had already lost its self-awareness.
However, in the dark, the man seemed to sense Bai Luo's feelings.
His soul instinctively bowed to Bai Luo, then turned into starlight and dissipated into the world.
“Boné?”
Ogerpon, who was playing, paused.
She looked in a certain direction outside the cave.
There, there seemed to be a voice saying goodbye to her.
For some reason, Ogerpon felt a little sad.
“Oger.”
“Boné?”
Ogerpon's thoughts were interrupted by Bai Luo's voice, and then she looked at him with a curious face: Is Oger calling me?
“It's the new name I gave you, how is it, do you like it?”
“Boné!!”
Ogerpon happily jumped twice, and then circled around Bai Luo again, like a carefree little girl.
Obviously, Ogerpon liked this name very much.
“Next, we'll help you retrieve those three masks.”
Bai Luo had already repaired the Teal Mask, so it was time to return the remaining masks to their original owner.
“Let's go.”
With a thought, Bai Luo and the Pokémon instantly disappeared from the Paradise Barrens.
“Boné?”
Looking at the familiar scenery that appeared in front of her, Ogerpon was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.
Is this superpower?
So magical!
Having already learned about the Trainer's skills from Charmander, Ogerpon looked at Bai Luo with admiration.
“Boné~ (So amazing)”
“Kowa Kowa (This is nothing, you haven't seen the real power yet)”
“Boné? (Really?)”
“Kowa! (Trainer, the strongest in the universe)”
“Bo? (What is the universe?)”
"......"
Listening to the conversation between the two Pokémon, Bai Luo smiled, and then led them towards the Community Center of Kitakami.
“Boné…”
However, as they got closer to the village, Ogerpon's condition became a little strange.
The little guy shrank her body, looking very resistant.
She was afraid, afraid of encountering the villagers, and then being driven away and cursed as a monster.
“Tsk.”
Bai Luo frowned in dissatisfaction.
Not at Ogerpon, but at the Kitakami villagers who had left such a psychological shadow on Ogerpon.
This feeling was like an old father seeing his daughter being bullied.
These troublesome people need to be taught a lesson.
Having made up his mind, Bai Luo bent down in front of Ogerpon and reached out his hand to her: “Don't worry, I'm here with you, I won't let anyone bully you again.”
“Boné.”
Holding Bai Luo's hand, Ogerpon looked towards the entrance of the village.
With Bai Luo here, Ogerpon isn't afraid of anything!
In this way, two figures, one large and one small, walked towards the Community Center in Kitakami like siblings.
The Community Center is located in a corner of the Community Plaza, facing the graves where the Loyal Three are buried.
Ogerpon's three masks are enshrined here.
“See, there's nothing to be afraid of, right?”
“Boné!”
Ogerpon raised her small head and gave Bai Luo a cute smile.
Along the way, no one noticed them.
Bai Luo ignored the villagers of Kitakami and went straight into the Community Center, retrieving all the masks collected there and returning them to Ogerpon.
“Boné.”
Ogerpon held the three masks, her eyes dazed.
Unknowingly, tears had already filled her eyes.
Ogerpon wiped away the tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes, and then firmly put all the masks under her cloak, which was like a four-dimensional pocket.
“Kowa~~”
Charmander, Vulpix, and the others surrounded Ogerpon, very happy that she could come out of the shadows of the past.
“Then…”
After doing all this, Bai Luo took the Pokémon to the general store in Kitakami.
“Boné…”
However, as they got closer to the village, Ogerpon's condition was a little off.
The little guy shrank, looking very resistant.
She was afraid, afraid of encountering the villagers, and then being driven away and cursed as a monster.
“Tsk.”
Bai Luo frowned in dissatisfaction.
Not at Ogerpon, but at the Kitakami villagers who had left such a psychological shadow on Ogerpon.
This feeling was like an old father seeing his daughter being bullied.
These troublesome people need to be taught a lesson.
Having made up his mind, Bai Luo bent down in front of Ogerpon and reached out his hand to her: “Don't worry, I'm here with you, I won't let anyone bully you again.”
“Boné.”
Holding Bai Luo's hand, Ogerpon looked towards the entrance of the village.
With Bai Luo here, Ogerpon isn't afraid of anything!
In this way, two figures, one large and one small, walked towards the ancestral hall of Kitakami like siblings.
The ancestral hall is located in a corner of the Community Plaza, facing the graves where the Loyal Three are buried.
Ogerpon's three masks are enshrined here.
“See, there's nothing to be afraid of, right?”
“Boné!”
Ogerpon raised her small head and gave Bai Luo a cute smile.
Along the way, no one noticed them.
Bai Luo ignored the villagers of Kitakami and went straight into the ancestral hall, retrieving all the masks collected there and returning them to Ogerpon.
“Boné.”
Ogerpon held the three masks, her eyes dazed.
Unknowingly, tears had already filled her eyes.

Charmander, Vulpix, and the others surrounded Ogerpon, very happy that she could come out of the shadows of the past.

After doing all this, Bai Luo took the Pokémon to the general store in Kitakami.
