Divine Plan? But I'm a Pokémon trainer.

Chapter 122: The Phantom Fish Returns from the River of Time

The movement of the great platinum gem did not cause any unusual phenomena, and the humans and elves soon left the cave on their way home.

"Xiaolin, why did you just come out?"

"I found an ancient inscription in an unknown language inside, and it took me some time to copy it."

Xiaoxia didn't think about anything else and happily pulled the other person to the lake.

According to her judgment as a water attribute expert, these red and white striped elf eggs are excellent in size and weight, and are guaranteed to give birth to healthy elves.

So the question came-

"Are we going to leave these wild bass at the Fountain of Farewell?"

Link complained, "If you want one, just say so. Just pick two."

"That was not what I meant!"

Xiaoxia argued.

What she meant was that the Fountain of Farewell looked like a haunted place, and it was too dangerous to leave the Savage Bass's elf egg here.

Looking at the hundreds of eggs densely packed under the lake, when they are all hatched, the ecology of the small Farewell Fountain will simply not be able to support them.

Therefore, these elf eggs must be moved to a body of water that is more suitable for them to spend their infancy. Generally speaking, the nearby Lizhi Lake is a good choice.

"But the problem is ecological invasion." Speaking of the release of fish-attribute Pokémon, Xiaoxia suddenly became much more professional. "As far as I know, Savage Bass is an aggressive and ferocious Pokémon. Once they are released into Lizhi Lake, they are likely to have an impact on other Pokémon."

In addition, it is speculated that the habit of the white-striped wild bass is to swim downstream into the cold sea immediately after graduating from the juvenile stage. The reason is that the water body where it is born cannot meet the survival needs of a large number of wild bass.

So they had to find a body of water that was connected to the sea.

After listening to Xiaoxia's explanation of various points to pay attention to, Link finally realized the troubles that might arise.

To be honest, he didn't think so much about it. Who knew that Yurou laid 294 eggs in an instant? Both he and Zhulan thought that they needed the help of Ditto.

"I see. Anyway, let's get others to help." Link threw the blame away without hesitation. "It's not convenient for the two of us to move such a large number of Pokémon eggs."

As he was speaking, he discovered that Misty had already instructed Golduck to pick out a favorite Pokémon egg from the water and put it in the bag.

"Leave this egg to me. Xiaolin, you figure out a way to deal with the rest?"

“Even my expedition backpack can’t hold this much.”

Finally, the two came to the conclusion that one person would stay nearby while the other would go to the Pokémon Center to contact help, but they had to go and come back quickly.

This task naturally fell into Link's hands...

With Arcanine racing along with sparks and smoke all the way, they arrived back to the Binhai City Pokémon Center in just over ten minutes and dialed the phone number of the Yamanashi Research Institute provided by Takeran.

The person who answered the phone was surprisingly a familiar face.

"Hello, this is the Yamanashi Research Institute. I'm Mingyao. How can I help you?"

Mingyao, who looks almost exactly like Minghui and was supposed to have traveled to the Xicui era, is actually working as an assistant in the Yamanashi Research Institute.

But he still looks very young now, probably just over ten years old?
While complaining in his mind about Professor Yamanashi employing child labor, Link immediately released the already evolved Ghosttail Mykonos.

"I'm Link, who was commissioned by Miss Zhulan to find the habitat of the endangered white-striped wild bass."

"Guwaa ...

As soon as he finished speaking, Mingyao made an unclear sound on the other end of the phone.

Then the camera spun around and a serious-looking white-haired old man appeared in front of him.

"Xiaolin? You actually found the habitat of the white-striped wild bass so quickly? It even evolved!?"

Link shook his head and explained the situation on his side. The key point was to get the other party to send someone to transport the eggs to suitable waters as soon as possible.

Upon learning that there were nearly 300 eggs at once, Dr. Yamanashi was so excited that he seemed to have eaten a pound of chili peppers in one breath. "Well, thanks to you! I didn't expect that you would find the Farewell Fountain by yourself. This matter really cannot be delayed... Just wait at the Binhai City Pokémon Center, I will contact Zhulan immediately."

After saying this, Dr. Yamanashi left the camera in a hurry, and the institute was in chaos again.

A moment later, Mingyao returned to the camera and looked curiously at the dark fish in front of the screen that seemed to be burning with flames.

This is an elf that existed in Sinnoh folklore. I thought it was just a fantasy, but I didn't expect it to actually exist.

"If the Savage Bass can complete its evolution and reproduction in the Fountain of Farewell you mentioned, does that mean that its homeland is there, but it just forgot where it was in the past hundred years?"

"Bass?"

Does this mean that the reason it can't find its hometown is because it has forgotten it?
Hearing Mingyao's guess, the dark-tailed black fish subconsciously fell into deep thought. Thinking about it carefully, it really only had a very simple impression of its hometown.

Could it be that the things it has been remembering with obsession for the past hundred years are just its fantasies, and it has actually forgotten its impression of its hometown long ago?

"Not necessarily. After all, it has been in existence in the Sinnoh region for more than a hundred years. It is normal that it cannot be recognized due to changes in the terrain."

When Link said this, he vaguely thought of the correct way to find the hometown of the Ghost Tail Mysterious Fish.

All the efforts he has made during this period have been basically in vain. Only by traveling back to the Xi Cui era can he truly find the waters where the Youwei Xuanyu was born!
Hearing this, Mingyao nodded and couldn't help but imagine the Sinnoh land of the past and the various mysteries that existed on this land.

There are so many documents and things that have been lost in the past hundred years. How great it would be if we could go back and see them with our own eyes.

As he was speaking, Link heard a familiar voice.

"Xiaolin, long time no see."

Zhulan, who happened to be fulfilling her duties as champion on Suzuran Island, had just arrived on her Gnawing Land Shark: "Thank you for saving the Darktail from extinction."

She really didn't expect that in less than a month, Link not only made Growlithe and Feral Bass complete their evolution, but also found a way to allow the latter to reproduce.

Even as a mythologist like her, she was not able to immediately think of the story about reincarnation in the Sinnoh legend.

Zhulan had a lot to say to this trainer who had a deep understanding of history, but unfortunately now was not the time for a free conversation.

So Link hung up the phone and rushed to the Fountain of Farewell with the hurriedly arriving champion.

With the help of the Champion's almost magical ability to control water flow, they produced a large amount of clean water. With the help of the Milotic that always maintained the effect of "surfing", they simulated the undercurrent at the bottom of the lake and transported a total of 293 White-striped Savage Bass Pokémon eggs all the way to the nearby Lizhi Lake.

The rest of the matter will naturally be handed over to Joey in Binhai City...

　Dr. Yamanashi

　　Sex: Male
　　Age: 70 (3 years later)

　　Born: Masaga Town in Sinnoh. From 4 years ago until recently, he was in Kanto region.

　　Appearance: Thick beard. Between burly and stocky. 170cm, about 90kg.

　　Personality: He likes children and believes that the evolution of Pokémon and the growth of children are both beautiful things with hidden possibilities.

　　However, because it is a little harsh, it can also be scary.

　　Although my research in Sinnoh is for my own benefit, I hope it will be helpful for future Pokémon research.

　　I was careless, maybe because I was too focused on thinking, and I made a lot of small mistakes.

　　Hobbies: I don’t have any proper hobbies because I turned my hobbies into work.

　　I like to organize my bookshelf. I changed the positions of all the books after studying it.
　　(However, most of the time, they just come up with a flash of inspiration midway and are thrown away casually).

　　Research direction: The evolution of Pokémon. All Pokémon (except Legendary Pokémon) have the possibility of evolution, and this hypothesis is established.

　　By the way, I started studying evolution because I was so impressed and moved when I first saw the moment of evolution.

　　Family structure: Live alone with his wife (62 years old). No children (so he likes children).
