“Gui Ling, are you leaving?”
“Yes, I still need to go back to town to buy some travel essentials, and then go to the Pokémon Center to treat the remaining injuries.”
“Alright, then we’ll see each other again! I look forward to our next encounter, I will definitely become stronger!”
“Alright, goodbye!”
After bidding farewell to Xiao Liang, Gui Ling, supported by Banette and Gengar, finally arrived in town.
“Alright, let’s go to the laboratory first.”
On the main street, Gengar and Banette, two very popular Pokémon, immediately attracted everyone’s attention, and many Trainers wanted to challenge them.
“Hello, I want to have a Pokémon battle with your Gengar!”
“Me too, me too, I want to have a battle with Banette!”
But Gui Ling smiled and refused everyone.
“Sorry, I’m a bit injured, and we’re about to go get treated, so we can’t have a Pokémon battle with you.”
“Ah? Is that so… Well, injuries are very important, you go first.”
“Alright, thank you all for your understanding.”
Soon, everyone arrived at Professor Platane’s laboratory. The Professor, upon learning that Gui Ling was seriously injured, immediately rushed out.
“Gui Ling? Are you alright?”
“Haha, I’m fine, I just got pierced by a Garchomp.”
“Oh, as long as you’re fine… What?! Pierced by a Garchomp?! Being fine is false! Come here right now!”
Then the Professor immediately took Gui Ling to the infirmary and personally treated Gui Ling’s remaining wounds.
“The wound on your chest seems to have been forcibly healed by a Pokémon, right? Fortunately, it was dealt with in time, otherwise it would leave sequelae.”
“It’s alright, Professor, look, aren’t I fine now?”
“You’re just being stubborn, tell me properly how you got into this state?”
Gui Ling was helped to the lounge by Professor Platane. Gui Ling, after taking a sip of coffee, began to recount his experience.
“I encountered Pokémon Hunters, and a very strong pair at that.”
“Is that so? Recently, there have indeed been too many Pokémon Hunters, and many Trainers have started to complain.”
“The pair I met were even more outrageous; they even had a Super Genggui.”
“What? No wonder you were so seriously injured, then what happened in the end?”
“In the end, all my Pokémon were captured, but fortunately, one was hidden.”
“What?”
“Oh, that’s a secret for now, you finish listening to the rest first.”
“Alright.”
Then Gui Ling recounted his experience of single-handedly defeating Garchomp, Pangoro, and Krookodile, and finally said that his ace Pokémon came to rescue him.
“So… you alone? Defeated Garchomp, Pangoro, and Krookodile with a single knife? Is that true or false?!”
“I have no benefit in lying to you, Professor.”
“Oh my, you’ve far exceeded my expectations. If possible, can you show me how you cut them down?”
“Professor, not now, I probably can’t even swing a knife. Let’s wait until I’ve recuperated for a while.”
“Alright, do you have anything else?”
“Professor, don’t you want to know who my ace Pokémon is?”
This immediately piqued Professor Platane’s curiosity, but Gui Ling said he needed a very large space, and only the Professor could be present. Platane directly took Gui Ling to the underground laboratory.
It was empty, not yet renovated, just a very large space.
“Alright, tell me, right here.”
“Professor, do you know about the three legendary Pokémon of the Kalos region?”
Upon mentioning this, the Professor looked at Gui Ling with some hesitation. He didn’t understand why Gui Ling would bring this up, but it must be related to his ace Pokémon.
“Yes, they are Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde, the three legendary Pokémon.”
“Then, Professor, please evaluate these three legendary Pokémon.”
Platane thought for a moment and summarized his research findings.
“First is Zygarde, it is the legendary Pokémon that governs order, the God of Order. It is speculated that it even destroyed a country that should not have existed before, and its strength should be stronger than the other two legendary Pokémon.”
“Next is Xerneas, it is the legendary Pokémon that governs life, the life god. It is opposed to the Death God Yveltal; the two often endlessly repeat the cycle of life and death. However, Xerneas should be the most mysterious of the three gods.”
“Then Professor, in your heart, what kind of existence is Yveltal?”
Platane thought for a while and still told Gui Ling, but Gui Ling also pulled out a Poké Ball at this time.
“The Death God Yveltal, he is the most dangerous Pokémon, indiscriminately petrifying all surrounding life. Legend has it that when its life is about to run out, it will absorb all life and transform back into a cocoon.”
(Takes out the Poké Ball)
“However, it seems to be slumbering in a corner of the Kalos region now.”
(A blue light flashed)
“But there’s no trace of it now; it’s been hundreds of years since Yveltal last appeared.”
(The cocoon of destruction appeared in front of them)
“But Yveltal’s appearance will definitely bring… destruction? Hey, what’s this?”
“Look, Professor, Yveltal.”
“This… what does this have to do with Yveltal? It feels like a Pokémon egg?”
But just then, the cocoon of destruction opened directly, and Yveltal revealed its true form, looking down at Platane below.
“I… huh?!!!”
Soon, the Professor’s Growl immediately attracted other staff members. Gui Ling quickly recalled Yveltal, and after the staff arrived, the Professor also recovered from his shock. He found an excuse to send them away.
“Gui Ling… was that really Yveltal?”
“Professor, just look, am I lying to you? Can it escape your eyes?”
Then Gui Ling released Yveltal again. Platane took a deep breath and observed it carefully.
“This is the Death God… Yveltal?”
“………… (Why are you staring at me for so long?)”
“It can talk?! Telepathy? Then you are definitely Yveltal!”
But Yveltal slowly moved next to Gui Ling, looking at Platane as if he were an idiot.
“………… (Why does this person seem a bit slow-witted?)”
“You scared him silly.”
After a long time, Platane finally recovered from his shock and immediately grabbed Gui Ling’s hand excitedly.
“Gui Ling! Tell me! How did you capture Yveltal? This is the Death God!”
“Ah… this actually…”
Gui Ling once again fully recounted the Pokémon Hunter incident, and also told of his encounter with Yveltal.
“Dark Forest? It was indeed briefly popular, but because there are too many evil Pokémon inside, no one wants to enter there. I didn’t expect Yveltal to actually reside in such a place.”
“………… (I only occasionally heard the discussions of small Pokémon to know about that place.)”
Then Platane looked at Gui Ling seriously, and after a long time, he spoke.
“I want to study Yveltal, Gui Ling, can you give me this opportunity?”
“Ah? This? I can’t decide, you ask it.”
“………… (Yes, but I have conditions.)”
“What?”
“………… (I want a lot of books, and also more gold, and then help me solve a problem.)”
“Books?”
Gui Ling also shook his head from the side.
“I don’t know why, but Yveltal especially likes to read that Pokémon Encyclopedia, and it’s becoming more and more engrossed. It even learned how to return vitality to others from that book.”
“You wait! I’ll show you all the books I’ve researched over the years!”
“………… (Hmm, this is a good person.)”
