Divine Plan? But I'm a Pokémon trainer.

Chapter 426 Returning to the Countryside Like a Recluse?
As Incineroar, skilled in close combat, closed the distance with Mewtwo using its battle experience, the latter quickly found itself in the predicament of its Psychic-type moves being affected by Dark-type energy.

The psychic powers that he was so proud of had little effect on his opponent, and even his attempt to use "teleport" to create distance was disrupted by "evil wave".

Not only did Mewtwo fail to use "foresight" to predict the future, but it also doesn't even have "miracle eye"?
The fox couldn't help but suspect that the opponent had underestimated him, which led to his defeat.

Link, who witnessed all of this, thought to himself, "Mewtwo wouldn't be a Mewtwo if it didn't suffer a setback..."

Both he and Fizz were well aware of the characteristics and fatal flaws of Psychic-type Pokémon.

Mewtwo, which does not Mega Evolve into X-Move, is not good at close combat, and its opponent quickly gains the upper hand during the fight.

The Blazing Roar Tiger clearly wouldn't give its opponent a chance to create distance, relentlessly clinging to its opponent even when hit by "Aura Sphere," "Power Gem," and "Earth Power."

The battle between the two was thus dragged into a war of attrition, which surprised Mewtwo with its opponent's durability.

Even though it was affected by the "Evil Wave", the Blazing Roaring Tiger was still able to hold its own against him and even had a slight advantage.
Link felt gratified watching the live broadcast of Porygon. His hard training over the past year had indeed paid off. With the right strategy, even a legendary Porygon could be defeated.

The stalemate between the two did not last too long. Realizing that this Mewtwo was not much stronger than the one on the new island and was far inferior to the one in the Sky Ladder that could freely Mega Evolve, Incineroar ended the battle with "D-Gold Hook Arm" as its finishing move.

Although both sides still have a lot of energy left, it is unlikely that the situation will change any further if the fight continues.

It's understandable that Ursaring and Dragonite are somewhat uninterested in this; it seems that Pokémon like Primal Groudon and Mega Rayquaza are not the norm for Legendary Pokémon...

"Not bad. Are you the strongest beings from the original world?"

It's really hard to explain why someone with a three-headed figure would say such a thing.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger scoffed at this claim, deeming such a human-given title meaningless. Whether strong or weak, it would continue to improve.

Upon hearing this, Mewtwo's long-dormant competitive spirit was rekindled.

Since arriving in this paradise that belongs only to elves, its motivation to become stronger has been low, but now it has finally met an elf whose strength is similar to its own.

The comfortable life on Tumblecube Island is nice, but is it really what I expected?

What happened to the world where time and space collapsed after I left?
After pondering for a long time, Mewtwo and Incineroar made a promise that they would have another match when they met again.

Before the words were even finished, the legendary space where Mewtwo was located began to collapse.

The expedition team made a swift retreat, and Mewtwo disappeared among them.

According to the speculation of the multifaceted beast, it may have returned to the original world where time and space collapsed.

"I never expected to encounter such a wonderful coincidence while traveling. I hope we will meet again someday."

Link looked at Shika... Connecting to the stone tablet, the coordinates here have been thoughtfully recorded by the Unknown Totem, so they can return here when needed in the future.

As Mewtwo departed and the exploration team returned, dawn broke.

For the first time in their lives, the group witnessed a cube-shaped dawn, preserving this precious memory in the records of the Porygon.

The following morning, after the Dragonite landed following its overnight round-the-world flight, Link, with the help of the Unown's abilities, led the Pokémon back to the Forest of the Linked. The returning Porygon immediately connected to the network and confirmed the events that had transpired.

"Network information confirmed, the sub-machine completed key authentication. The time spent over there is different from the time passed here. We have been gone from this world for about 2 months and 7 hours."

The short one-day sightseeing trip on Tumblecube Island caused Link and the elves to be out of sync with the rest of the world for a full two months.

Although this wasn't the first time we'd experienced something like this (on Ross Hills), this time the derailment lasted an unexpectedly long time.

"That was dangerous. Next time, we must confirm the flow rate before exploring further."

If Link has just spent more than two weeks on Tumblecube Island, he can start preparing to deal with Team Rocket and the Sinnoh region's events when they return three years later!
"Boni-oh!"

It turns out that the legendary jade box in the Dragon Palace is real!

"Is there a story about Urashima Taro here too? It seems there are quite a few more time-traveling predecessors than I imagined."

Their adventure was indeed very similar to the story of the Rotten Chessman or Urashima Taro, where they traveled to another world and returned home to find that countless years had passed in the real world.

"Perhaps Urashima Taro, realizing the changing times, opened the jewel box with thoughts like 'wanting to reclaim lost time' or 'meaningless without family.' Maybe the true purpose of that 'jewel box' is not to make people age, but a treasure to fulfill wishes?"

The fox concluded that it must be the material of the Talebages that gave the trainer the idea that the Jade Box was essentially a wish-granting machine.

In any case, it's just a story after all.

Link has no time for fairy tale retelling right now. The moment he returned to this world, his navigator and encyclopedia were bombarded with messages.

The disappearance of a champion-level trainer is news in any region.

Fortunately, Link himself had a history of disappearing signals and then reappearing in distant locations several times, so the United States Union wouldn't launch a large-scale search and rescue operation for him, and he wouldn't have to see his face on the news.

However, as soon as his signal reappeared, a familiar number called.

"Kobayashi, where exactly did you go before?"

The voice on the other end of the phone (navigator) sounded slightly weathered yet full of energy; it was none other than Adecker, the current champion of the Unova region.

"The Pokédex and Poké Ball management system show that you disappeared for two whole months after entering the network. What exactly happened inside?"

Link scratched his head, "It's hard to explain in just a few words."

“Mr. Adek, I know you’re in a hurry, but please don’t worry. I haven’t encountered any accidents recently.”

He paused, then added slowly, "I've just solved a puzzle. Specifically... wait, is there a signal even at the deepest point? When will the navigator be usable in the Unova region?"

Aldak wasn't in a hurry at first, but after hearing these words, he almost lost his temper.

"During the time you disappeared from the world, the Hoenn region made a major technological breakthrough—successfully getting Rayquaza to allow humans to launch some satellites into the planet's orbit!"
