"No, that's not an auditory hallucination, Xiaosheng, congratulations! You are the one with a pure heart chosen by Jirachi!" Just when everyone didn't believe Xiaosheng, Gongsun Yan stepped forward to clear Xiaosheng's name.
"Jirachi? You said that purple stone is Jirachi?" Xiaosheng said with great surprise.
"That's right, Jirachi, the Pokémon that can only be seen once every thousand years, wakes up for seven days every thousand years, and then chooses someone with a pure heart who can protect her as a partner." Gongsun Yan said with great emotion.
"So Xiaosheng was chosen? But is Xiaosheng an innocent boy?" Xiaoyao's face was full of disbelief.
"Sister, of course I am innocent. Jirachi agrees with that!" Xiaosheng was obviously very dissatisfied with his sister's distrust of him.
But Xiaoyao, who knew Xiaosheng better than anyone else, still didn't believe it, and the two siblings started arguing.
Gongsun Yan shook his head slightly upon seeing this and ignored the two siblings. This kind of quarrel would happen almost every few days, but it was also one of the ways for them to communicate their feelings with each other.
Gongsun Yan turned around and looked at Butler who was still performing on the stage, and began to recall the news about Butler in his mind.
Butler, a former member of Team Magma, has a piece of rock from Groudon's body. He believes that Groudon can no longer be found, so he comes up with the idea of using this rock to create a new Groudon.
Of course, the experiment ended in failure, and Butler was expelled from Team Magma. The resentful Butler took the opportunity to steal the rock and attempted to use Jirachi's energy to create Groudon.
Butler is obviously a man of action, and he has a good knowledge of science and technology. He actually found the sleeping place of Jirachi based on those scattered folk legends, and took away its incarnation, which was the crystal in the lady's hand.
In fact, Butler is really a genius. When Gongsun Yan grew up and reviewed those theatrical versions in his previous life, he found that Butler's plan could really create a new Groudon.
In fact, in the movie, the Groudon that Butler resurrected using Jirachi's energy has become a living Pokémon, but the birth of Groudon requires a large amount of natural energy.
The reason why Groudon and Kyogre, the two survivors from ancient times, fought for natural energy was not only to absorb it to enhance their own strength, but also to create their own kind.
After all, not every eruption of natural energy can be absorbed completely, and the remaining energy cannot be given to the opponent, so just spend it all.
Chapter 188 The So-Called Legend
Just as Xiaosheng and Xiaoyao were arguing, the magic show ended and the audience left one after another.
"Okay, stop arguing, why don't you just go over and take a look." Gongsun Yan spoke up to stop the quarrel and led everyone to the backstage.
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" Butler saw Zhong Teng coming over and put on a humble smile and asked everyone.
"Hello, this is my companion. He seemed to have heard Jirachi calling him. The crystal stone in this lady's hand must be the incarnation of Jirachi." Gongsun Yan pushed Xiaosheng out and said with a perfect fake smile.
"What! You heard Jirachi's voice!"
After hearing what Gongsun Yan said, Butler could no longer hold back his fake smile. He looked at Xiaosheng with surprise and excitement.
"Yes, I heard it." Xiaosheng said very affirmatively. Although he felt it was a little unbelievable, he was sure that he really heard it.
"That's great. You are needed for Jirachi's awakening. I think since this gentleman knows it is Jirachi and knows Jirachi's abilities, I won't say much." Butler couldn't suppress the smile on his face, and asked his assistant to bring Jirachi's incarnation.
When Xiaosheng saw the crystal stone transformed by Jirachi, he took it with great joy. Gongsun Yan hurriedly stepped forward, walked to Butler's side, and patted his shoulder in a very familiar manner.
"Oh, I'm so embarrassed for you to do this. Wouldn't it be too overbearing to just take it away like this? We're not here to steal anything. So, if there's anything you want, I'll see if I can get it for you."
"Uh, no, no, I'm very happy that you can help Jirachi." Butler calmly broke away Gongsun Yan's hand, and then righteously rejected Gongsun Yan's gift.
"I'm so sorry. Here is a box of energy cubes that I made myself. It's just a little gift. Please don't refuse it!" Gongsun Yan smiled and handed a box of energy cubes to Butler.
"Then I'll be welcome. Thank you very much." Butler also put on a fake smile and accepted the box of energy cubes.
"Then we won't bother you anymore. Goodbye. I hope your career will continue to flourish." Gongsun Yan also felt that such a smile was a bit too fake, and hurriedly said goodbye to Butler.
Butler did not try to keep them. Instead, he personally escorted them to the door and watched them leave before returning to the tent.
As soon as he entered the tent, the fake smile on Butler's face disappeared immediately, and he threw the box of energy cubes in his hand away.
The box of energy cubes was caught by someone before it hit the ground. That person was Butler's beautiful assistant Diane, the woman who liked Butler.
"Don't waste it like that. It's just a box of energy cubes after all." Diane smiled and put her arm around Butler's shoulder, then said in his ear.
"Okay, don't worry about that. Keep an eye on those kids and prepare to retrieve Jirachi." Butler said with a sneer.
Gongsun Yan, who walked out of the tent, immediately put away the hypocritical smile on his face and patted his hands in disgust, as if he had touched something dirty before.
"Brother Yan, do you think Jirachi can really fulfill people's wishes?" Xiaosheng walked out of the tent and looked at Gongsun Yan with anticipation, and the people around him also looked expectant.
They also want to know this question. After all, how can one live in this world without any wishes?
"Hiss~, well, it depends on your definition of fulfilling a wish. In a sense, you can say that." Gongsun Yan thought about it carefully and said something nonsense.
Everyone who heard this looked constipated. Riddler, get out of Gotham!
"So what does it mean?" Xiaosheng suppressed his anger and asked Gongsun Yan again.
"Well, if the wish you mentioned is for gold, silver, jewelry or something, then Jirachi can indeed make it come true. After all, she has the ability to teleport, and her strength should not be underestimated. She can instantly move things from thousands of miles away to you." Gongsun Yan shrugged and said.
"Ah! Isn't that equivalent to theft?" Xiaosheng was also very surprised after hearing this.
"Yes, but for people a thousand years ago, as long as they got the wealth, it would be theirs." Gongsun Yan smiled casually.
Although the mythical beasts possess incredible powers of all kinds, they still have to respect the basic law of conservation of energy. Nothing can come out of nothing, which also saves scientists from having to open the coffin lid.
"Is that so? If we fulfill our wishes in that way, it won't be so touching. Then other wishes can't be fulfilled either?" Xiaoyao shook her head at first, then seemed to remember something and looked at Gongsun Yan excitedly.
"That won't happen. Jirachi can indirectly help you realize your dreams. For example, if your dream is to become a top coordination trainer, she can't make you become one directly, but she can make your Pokémon gain powerful strength to defeat all opponents. In this way, you will also successfully become a top coordination trainer." Gongsun Yan said casually.
Just like the mythical beast Victini in the Unova region symbolizes eternal victory, although the legend has always said so, Gongsun Yan knows what the so-called eternal victory is.
Although it sounds good, it is a complete cheat, simply because Victini will openly share his power with his companions in battle, and it is only because of Victini's invisibility that he is not exposed.
Jirachi also has a similar ability, but it only gathers the power of the stars on the opponent. Although it can enhance the opponent's strength in a short period of time, once the energy is used up, it will be reduced to its original form.
So legends are indeed beautiful, but many times, legends are beautified and the facts may not be so beautiful.
"By the way, Xiaoyan, how do you know so much about Jirachi?" When everyone was sad because their dreams were shattered, Xiaozhi didn't look lost at all. He would not rely on the power of others. He would definitely work together with his partners to get the title of Pokémon Master.
Jirachi is a Pokémon that really only appears in legends and fairy tales from all over the world. Compared to other legendary Pokémon, whose books and research materials can fill up several teaching buildings, there are very few related to Jirachi.
"Hey, Lee Sin, you found the highlight. Actually, I have to thank you, Xiaozhi." Gongsun Yan looked at Xiaozhi with a smile on his face.
"Actually, I traveled through time."
Chapter 189: Four Types of Legendary Pokémon
"Actually, I traveled through time."
Gongsun Yan told his biggest secret very seriously, but Xiaozhi and the others looked at him with strange eyes. Xiaosheng even patted Gongsun Yan's arm and spoke helplessly.
"Hey, stop playing tricks now, just tell the truth and read less novels."
"No, I'm serious!"
"Okay, okay, you are serious, then you can tell me about Jirachi's situation."
"..." Gongsun Yan was very helpless. It was so hard to tell the truth these days but no one believed it. It was such a waste of his trust.
"Jirachi is a Pokémon with both Psychic and Steel attributes. It is extremely powerful and has its own special move, Wish Breaker. I even know where the other Jirachi is sleeping." After Gongsun Yan finished speaking, he saw that Xiaoyao had a bunch of questions to ask him, so he quickly shouted.
"Don't ask me how I know. I can only say that those who know know. I can't say more about those who don't know. Don't ask me what's going on either. There are too many interests involved. It won't benefit you or me if I tell you. Just pretend you don't know. For the rest, I can only say that the water here is very complicated and involves many things."
"...speak human language." Xiaoyao was completely confused by Gongsun Yan's words and asked Gongsun Yan to tell her the key point.
"Ahem, to put it simply, it was a legendary Pokémon friend of mine who told me. As for who it is, I can't say much. He asked me not to reveal his name. If we can travel together in the future, I can introduce you to him." Gongsun Yan temporarily thought of a more reliable reason to reassure Xiaoyao and the others.
As for this friend, it was of course unfounded. Although he knew many mythical beasts and fantasy beasts, no one knew him. The reason why he said this was mainly to explain when he suddenly took out a mythical beast in the future. After all, he didn't believe that he couldn't bring out a mythical beast from the game.
After hearing this explanation, Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng were obviously a little unconvinced, but Xiaozhi and Xiaogang were different. It was just that they knew a few legendary beasts, so who doesn't?
So Xiaozhi and Xiaogang just admired Gongsun Yan's luck and turned their attention back to Jirachi. After all, this is a legendary Pokémon right in front of them, the mythical Pokémon Jirachi!
Except for Gongsun Yan, who didn't care much because he had caught the mythical beasts several times in the game, watched too many animated movies, and had the blessings of four mythical beasts on him, the rest of the people were extremely looking forward to it.
Wait quietly for time to pass.
As the night deepened, Gongsun Yan and his companions came out into the wild, lay on the green grass, looked up at the starry sky, and saw a white light like a holy mark emerging from the sky in the starry night sky.
The moment the Millennium Comet appeared, the purple crystal in Xiaosheng's arms instantly burst into a strong light, completely attracting everyone's attention.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the crystal. Gongsun Yan silently took out the atlas from his pocket to record the scene. How could he not record such a precious scene?
If this video is sent to Professor Oak, maybe Dr. Oak will use it to write a paper, and Gongsun Yan can even gain the status of a scholar.
The crystal stone shone with brilliant light and slowly floated up from Xiaosheng's hand, merging with the light of the millennium comet in the sky, exuding an extraordinary aura.
Everyone who sensed this breath felt a vague sense of oppression and their expressions changed involuntarily.
However, even though Jirachi has mysterious powers, Gongsun Yan really has no idea about her combat ability, and even looks down on her.
After all, not all legendary Pokémon have strong combat power. The key point is combat power, not strength. If you have strength but cannot use it, your combat power will definitely not be high.
Gongsun Yan even dared to say that he was the person in the world who knew the most about the legendary Pokémon. After all, he had read those anime series and fan fiction in his previous life for a while.
The reason why these legendary Pokémon are considered legends is not because of their great power, but because each of them is very special and is the embodiment of nature.
These legendary Pokémon can manipulate the power of nature, or they are nature themselves. To put it in a more mysterious way, they control the corresponding laws.
However, mastering the rules does not mean that their own combat power is strong enough. The most typical examples are Celebi and Jirachi.
If it's a level one legendary beast, it's fine. Unless it's a legendary beast with a tribe like Groudon, Kyogre, and Lugia, with a big age gap and a big strength gap, the others are all very strong.
Even if it is a divine beast with a tribe, once it reaches adulthood, its bottom line of strength is champion, which is completely beyond human imagination.
However, the strength of the second-level beasts varies greatly. Take the very classic Zapdos for example. There is the Zapdos that can only absorb electricity in unmanned power plants, and the God of Thunder who can cause global climate change as long as he leaves the island.
I won’t go into detail about the Ultra Beasts here, as I’ll talk about them later when we go to Alola, but there are some things to say about the Mystical Pokémon.
The most famous mythical Pokémon are probably Nightmare and Darkrai. Their upper limit is to be able to fight against the Space-Time Twin Dragons, but their lower limit is to be killed in one blow by Lizard King.
It's not that Lizard King isn't strong, of course it is strong, but the fact that it couldn't even withstand a single attack really doesn't live up to the name of the Mystical Pokémon. Its HP couldn't be 0v, right?
Jirachi is the least combative among the mythical Pokémon, and her equal is the famous forest god, Celebi.
Gongsun Yan's positioning of Jirachi is similar to Celebi, both of them possess mysterious abilities such as time travel that even many first-level gods cannot do, but their actual combat capabilities are probably not even comparable to those of the King of Heaven.
With careful planning and sneak attack tactics, even elite peak-level trainers can clear the Celebi dungeon alone.
However, facing the twin dragons of time and space who also possess the abilities of time and space, the combat power below the champion will not be able to hurt the opponent even if one of them comes.
However, after feeling the energy emanating from Jirachi, Gongsun Yan found that he seemed to have underestimated Jirachi's strength.
He didn't know what Jirachi's normal strength was for the time being, but under the illumination of the Millennium Comet, Jirachi's power was not inferior to those of the first-level gods. He just didn't know how long this power could last.
If it can last for seven days, then there is no difference between it and a first-level god. After all, it only wakes up for seven days in a thousand years.
Chapter 190 Inner Struggle
While Gongsun Yan was thinking, the crystal stone kept changing in the colorful light, causing the surrounding space to constantly distort.
In the diamond-like bright light, a Pokémon with the shape of a star appeared in front of everyone.
This Pokémon has two colorful ribbons on its back that are constantly fluttering in the air, and a shallow, curved slit on its abdomen, which is an organ similar to an eye.
Her star-shaped head took up half the size of her body. There were blue-green triangular patterns under her eyes, and three green rectangular prayer papers hung from each corner of her head.
The moment Jirachi appeared, the powerful force that had filled the surroundings suddenly disappeared. Even Gongsun Yan, who had been paying attention, did not react.
"Jirachi!"
No matter what Gongsun Yan was thinking, Xiaosheng was not affected at all. Xiaosheng, who didn't have his own Pokémon, lost his previous mature look after seeing Jirachi. He excitedly raised his hands and waved to Jirachi in the air.
Jirachi also recognized Xiaosheng, and happily descended from the air and landed in Xiaosheng's hands.
"Let me see, let me see." After seeing Jirachi fall into Xiaosheng's hands, Xiaoyao rushed to Xiaosheng impatiently. Xiaozhi and Xiaogang also came over curiously.
“Hey, why get so excited?” Gongsun Yan said that he didn’t care, but in fact he quickened his pace and got closer to observe Jirachi.
"Hello, Jirachi, I'm Xiaosheng, nice to meet you!" Xiaosheng said happily, holding Jirachi high.
"Hello, Xiaosheng!" A pure yet ethereal voice sounded in everyone's heart. Xiaozhi and the others only felt that the voice was like a child, while Gongsun Yan was a little silent. This voice had become a swan song in the previous life.
The voice that emerged from everyone's mind was naturally telepathy, the same kind that Gardevoir mastered, or it could be said that all psychic-type Pokémon have learned the same kind of telepathy.
"Hello, I'm Xiaoyao!" Xiaoyao immediately came over to greet Jirachi, followed by Xiaozhi, Xiaogang and Gongsun Yan. However, Jirachi seemed to have little interest in them. He just responded to everyone perfunctorily and turned around to find Xiaosheng to play.
"Hiss, suddenly I feel like we are redundant." Gongsun Yan looked at the man and Pokémon in front of him, touched his chin, and said to Xiaozhi and the others beside him, who nodded seriously.
However, seeing Jirachi and Xiaosheng talking happily together, the two childish voices chatting together, full of joy, Gongsun Yan and others also showed gratified smiles.
However, while he was happy, Gongsun Yan was also a little confused. Although he did not feel it clearly just now, the enormous pressure he sensed before must have contained an enormous amount of energy, and he could feel it even at such a great distance.
This is normal. The universe is full of countless mysterious places. Even the power of nature possessed by the legendary Pokémon can only be considered medium or even average in the universe.
After all, the source of mega evolution, the huge rock containing infinite super evolution energy comes from the universe. Needless to say, how huge the energy contained in that rock is.
What's more, there is Deoxys, a virus Pokémon from outer space. One of them can fight against Rayquaza, and two of them can even explode Rayquaza.
