Elf: This owner is so sunny.

Bingning Village.

One of the many villages located in the Crown Snowfields, between the Sled Snowfields and the Ice Point Snowfields, sandwiched between two gigantic energy points. This village has been supporting the legendary king, the Bud Crown King, for generations.

Because the flower of the Bud Crown King, which symbolizes "glory", often blooms, it provides a certain amount of shelter for the villagers living here. However, as time passed, the "flower of glory" never bloomed again, and over time, the villagers no longer worshipped the Bud Crown King.

However, in the ancient books recorded in the village, we can still see the shadow of Leiguanwang.

The villagers born here also have powerful Pokémon to resist the violent Dynamax Pokémon, but there are not many trainers who like to explore the Dynamax energy points on both sides. Most of them do it for self-protection, and few people will take the initiative to solve the problem.

Bingning Village is considered to be a village that can provide evidence about the Bud Crown King.

Therefore, it is visited by many legend lovers.

Among them is the former Galar League champion, Pioni and his daughter.

“The environment here is beautiful.”

Walking on the snow, there were scattered villages and wooden houses with thick smoke rising up, finally there was a sense of life. Not far away, there was an iconic Pokémon emblem, indicating that it was the Pokémon Center of Crown Tundra.

And above Bingning Village, on the top of the endless snow-capped mountains, is the Crown Temple, which is also the residence of the legendary king - the Flower Crown King.

"That's the Crown Temple up there." Bai Yu pointed to the palace at the highest point of the snow-capped mountain.

"The Crown Temple is the area where the legendary king you mentioned might appear?"

Nazi also looked in the direction Bai Yu pointed, and noticed the palace at the highest point of the snow-capped mountain. It was faintly visible under the white snow. Could such a conspicuous target really be inhabited by the legendary existence?

You have to know that the legendary Pokémon will not stay in their habitats forever, just like Ho-Oh and Lugia in Kanto and Johto regions, they will not stay in the same place for a long time.

On the one hand, it is too easy to expose one's location and cause unnecessary trouble. On the other hand, encountering the legendary Pokémon requires fate.

If you want to see those Pokémon, strength alone is not enough, you also need fate.

It will only appear if the other party wants to see you. If you don’t want to see it, it will be difficult to find those Pokémon even if you search for your whole life.

This is why they are regarded as legends.

While possessing great power, he rarely appears in the public eye.

"Yeah, but I don't know if that Pokémon will be in the Crown Temple."

Bai Yu waved his hand. In a sense, the Belle Crown, who had lost the power of faith, was just like Kyurem, who had lost the power of the black and white dragons and was left with only a shell.

It is in a weak stage, but unlike Kyurem, it can change its form just by riding a horse, and its combat power will not be reduced too much.

"If you don't find it, it would be a waste of time."

Nancy rolled her eyes. If she had known this, she would not have come.

It’s such a cold day, you might as well enjoy the scenery.

"Ow~"

Ice Vulpix was quite happy and left many footprints in the snow. It even looked for areas with thick snow and sank into the snow with a jump. Its two little feet were still making a lot of noise.

In the end, it was the Blazing Roaring Tiger that reached out and lifted the little guy up, allowing it to escape from the "danger".

"It will be found."

"However, before looking for it, we still need to understand the history of Bingning Village."

Bai Yu turned his head and looked at the statue of the Rose-Crown King standing in the center of Bingning Village. This was also proof that this village once believed in the Rose-Crown King. However, the ice sculpture had not been maintained for a long time, and a lot of snow had accumulated on the statue, covering part of the Rose-Crown King's appearance.

"Before coming here, I also did some research. In ancient times, Bingning Village believed in the legendary king. The legendary king also protected the village, allowing Bingning Village to survive for a long time."

"But... every time a Radiant Flower is released, a large amount of energy is consumed. Over time, the Bud Crown King became lazy, the Radiant Flower no longer bloomed, and the villagers gradually stopped offering sacrifices to it."

This is no secret, and perhaps to some extent, this is also the reason why the Bud Crown disappeared.

Without the blessing of the power of faith, the Flower Crown King will also be in a weak state.

The legendary Pokémon in each region are all affected by a certain power of faith. The Ho-Oh and Lugia in Kanto and Johto have corresponding statues, and even their own habitats have been built.

The same is true for Hoenn and Sinnoh.

The power of human faith is still very important. Kyurem suffered from the power of faith at that time. If it were not for the little faith provided by the geometric snowflakes in its habitat, its power might have become weak with the passage of time.

"In other words, the disappearance of the legendary king was due to the collapse of the power of faith?"

Nancy seemed to have grasped something and began to speak in a murmur.

At the same time, she also realized that Bai Yu seemed to know the name of the legendary king.

The bud crown king?!
This is not information that can be mentioned in the records. Anyway, Nancy has been in Team Rocket for so long, and she has indeed not heard any information about the King of Legends. She does know about the sword and shield and the evil dragon of the Galar region.

The only thing I feel unfamiliar with is the King of Legends.

Of course, this is not Nancy's fault. After all, before Baiyu subdued the martial arts bear master, Nancy was not aware that there was a legendary beast in the Galar region that could only have two different forms.

The disaster of the Crown Snowfield may have been caused by the Bud Crown King in ancient times.

Just like the place where Kyurem previously lived, the appearance of this type of Pokémon will change the topographical features of an area, making it an area that Pokémon with specific attributes like to live in.

"There is a reason for this! But it's not much. The legendary king also appeared in Quanguan City three thousand years ago and fought against the evil dragon Wuji Taina who fell from outer space."

Just as the two were chatting, the voice of a middle-aged man came from behind them.

Turning his head, he could see who was coming.

He was wearing mountaineering clothes to protect against the severe cold and carrying an old mountaineering bag. He had a very long beard that looked like it hadn't been groomed for a long time. He was wearing a beret and looked very weathered.

The person who came was the former Galar League champion and former Galar Steel Gym Leader, Pioni!
Next to Pioni stood a girl with light yellow and pink hair, wearing mountaineering clothes and a shirt underneath. She had yellowish skin and emerald green eyes, and looked a bit playful.

Pioni's eldest daughter.

Shakoya!
She had just graduated from Orange College and came to the Crown Snowfield to assist her father in exploring the Crown Snowfield and inquire about the information of the legendary king.

These two people came at a very coincidental time.

"What a coincidence~" Bai Yu's eyes flickered slightly. He was a little surprised to meet these two here.

As the former champion of Galar, Pioni's strength is unquestionable. He is definitely stronger than Kibana and slightly inferior to Dantei.

The fact that Xia Keya was able to graduate from Orange Academy is enough to show that she is quite strong. At the very least, she is at the gym level. She has followed her father to the Crown Snowfield for such a long time, so she should have joined the ranks of the kings.

Peony, the youngest daughter of Pioni, is an important character in the ninth generation of the Padia region. Her role is not inferior to Nemo, and she is also a sure winner in the future.

What the Pokémon world lacks the least is geniuses. Especially after their appearance in the Padia region, geniuses have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. At only a dozen years old, they can reach heights that others will never be able to reach in their entire lives.

Such an excellent classroom environment has also produced one outstanding contestant after another.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Bai Yu from Kanto, and this is my girlfriend, Nancy, also from Kanto."

Bai Yu walked up, smiled and spoke softly.

Hearing this, Pioni raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have heard of Bai Yu's name before. He smiled and said, "You are the Bai Yu that Dan Dizi mentioned. You are really a young man."

"You're overconfident, champion Pioni." Bai Yu said modestly.

"Ha ha……"

Pioni came up and patted Bai Yu on the shoulder, smiling and said, "Don't be so modest. You can win the championship in this Masters Tournament and defeat Dante with six Pokémon head-on. Your strength has surpassed most trainers in the world."

"You know, I was kicked down by that guy Dan Dizai back then."

That's right, when Pioni was the champion, he was defeated by Dantei and became the leader of the Steel Gym. After that, he heard some information about the Crown Tundra, so he resigned from his gym position and went to the Crown Tundra to explore and control those rioting Dynamax energy points.

It can be said that Pioni, even if he resigned from his gym position, still made his own contribution to the peace of the Galar region.

And the statue of the King of the Flower Crown in Bingning Village was also cleaned by Pioni.

When he came over, the statue was already covered with snow, and no one was willing to clean up the useless statue.

"He is Pioni?"

Nancy looked at Pioni with some curiosity. He was indeed older than Dandi.

It should be the league champion born between Mashide and Dandi.

He is not very famous, and his name is rarely heard in the Galar region. Most people praise Dan Di. After all, Dan Di is known as the strongest in history and exists as the pride of the Galar region.

"You just won the Masters Championship and you're coming to Crown Snowfield?"

Pioni was a little curious, his eyes flickering, and he looked at Bai Yu and said, "You didn't come all the way here to fight with me, did you?"

“I do have this idea.”

Bai Yu said calmly, his words revealing absolute confidence.

Bai Yu has beaten all the former champions, even the current champion. Is he afraid of the former champion? !

What's more, since it is a team mainly composed of steel elements, their system may not be as mature as Daigo's. Daigo's current lineup system has been basically perfected.

"Hahaha~ You are so straightforward, just like what that guy Dan Dizai said."

Pioni laughed, and then said: "But I don't have time now. I still need to find the legendary king. Although I have been looking for him for several years, I still believe that the legendary king is in the Crown Snowfield."

Pioni is no longer at the age of being competitive. Now he just wants to do something meaningful. Finding the figure of the legendary king is also his current pursuit.

He wanted to completely complete the Galar Atlas and register the name of this legendary being.

Although he has not found the other party yet, he believes that sooner or later, he will be able to find the legendary king and have a powerful battle with the legendary existence.

"Senior Pioni, didn't you go to the Crown Temple?"

Bai Yu only had some ideas about challenges. He was more interested in finding the Rat Crown King, so he asked Pioni curiously.

After all, it has been such a long time, Pioni should have been to the Crown Temple. Even if he didn't see the Bud Crown King, he should have seen the Blizzard Horse and the Ghost Horse.

These two are the mounts exclusive to Bud Crown, and they live in the Crown Temple all year round. Even here, you can still see the two legendary Pokémon.

As long as you see those two horses, you are not far from the Rape Crown King.

The Rape Crown King has established a deep friendship with the two horses. Coupled with the lack of the power of faith, if it moves too far away, its strength will only decline more significantly.

"I went there once, but I didn't see the legendary king, and I haven't even seen the two horses mentioned in the ancient books."

Pioni reached out to clear the snow off the statue of the Bud Crown King and spoke in a rather helpless tone.

He had gone to the Crown Temple to look for it, but he couldn't stay in the Frozen Temple for too long, and he didn't find any signs of life there.

The Crown Snowfield is so large, and considering the records in the ancient books of Bingning Village, even Pioni himself is not sure whether the legendary king still lives in the Crown Snowfield.

"If you ask me, the legendary king may never have appeared in the Crown Snowfield. All of this may be fabricated." Xia Keya said softly. She also stayed in the Crown Snowfield for a very long time. She and her father had not returned to their hometown for a long time.

Every time I go to the Crown Snowfield, searching for the legend aimlessly.

"Xia Xia~"

Pioni loves his eldest daughter very much and wants to leave everything he has to his eldest daughter, but... Xia Keya doesn't care about it at all.

She just likes to do some of the things she wants to do.

"Hmph~ Stupid dad, if you can't find the trace of the King of Legends, you'd better go back. I haven't seen my mom for a long time. I can't let her stay at home all day."

Xia Keya glanced at Pioni coldly and said something unhappily.

"Got it, Xiao Xia Xia. After this exploration is over, we will go back." Pioni nodded quickly. He agreed to his daughter's request.

And Naz looked at the father and daughter with some surprise. This Pioni was not the same as she had imagined. He loved his daughter a little too much.

"The Flower Crown King?"

Bai Yu walked up slowly and reached out to touch the ice sculpture of the Flower Crown King.

His eyes flickered slightly, and he discovered something in his heart. (End of this chapter)
