You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 175 So, everyone in this family except me is a chosen one...?

After Qingyu reached out and took the "Rayquaza's Personal Use, 99% New" Mega Evolution Stone, Rayquaza seemed to have completed its mission, turning its head without looking back and flying straight back into the sky, quickly disappearing into the clouds.

The phrase "vanishing without a trace" perfectly describes it.

Before the audience could recover from the shock of Rayquaza's appearance, Genji, who had appeared behind Aoba at some point, suddenly spoke:
“Mr. Qingyu, this is an evolution stone that has only been found in the Kalos and Hoenn regions so far.”

"It seems that Rayquaza has recognized the belief of your precious dragon, which is why it presented you with this gift, right?"

After Genji finished speaking, he looked emotional.

It is said that there is indeed a very small number of extremely lucky humans who have the opportunity to be favored by legendary Pokémon.

For example, the "Ho-Oh Warrior" that appears only once every few decades in the Indigo Plateau, or the "Meteor Dwellers" in the Hoenn legend who have an inextricable connection with Rayquaza.

Unexpectedly, there was also a Shiny Rayquaza in the Padia region, and the young Blue Feather Gym Leader even received a gift from it.

Having witnessed the powerful Rayquaza in person, Genji felt that his trip to Padia was worthwhile.

Playing with the smooth, slightly sticky Salamence evolution stone in his hand, Qingyu paused for a moment before asking:
"But this baby dragon is only three days old. Isn't it a bit too early to give me a Salamence evolution stone now..."

As a Pokémon that matures late, it will probably take a very long time for Bellatrix to evolve.

I don't need this thing right now!
"No, this evolution stone from Rayquaza is very special, completely different from the ones we dug up underground."

Genji shook his head and looked at the evolution stone in Aoba's hand.

"Normally, the evolution stones we can obtain nowadays are probably products left over from a meteorite crisis that almost destroyed the world a thousand years ago."

As a transmigrator familiar with the storylines of different generations, Qingyu could naturally tell that this content was closely related to the main storyline of the Jewel Remastered series.

Roughly every thousand years, Hoenn experiences a meteorite crisis.

The two most recent recorded meteorite impacts were ultimately resolved by Rayquaza.

This is the fundamental reason why it is revered by the Hoenn people as the "Guardian of the Sky".

Compared to Kyogre and Groudon, it actually did something worthwhile...

As Aoba reminisced, Genji quickly spoke again:
"After being buried underground for a thousand years, these mysterious meteorites from space still possess the power to allow certain Pokémon to break through their limits and achieve super evolution that is theoretically impossible, but the power within them has gradually faded away over time."

“But I can sense that the evolution stone in your hand seems to contain energy from outside the universe.”

After Genji finished speaking, he took out an evolution stone from his pocket that was similar in color but had a completely different luster.

"Moreover... it is said that Rayquaza has a peculiar tissue in its body called the Emperor Organ, which is related to the source of Mega Evolution. Perhaps this Evolution Stone has also been activated by Rayquaza."

Comparing the two evolution stones, Qingyu could clearly see that the one in his hand shone brighter, and even appeared and disappeared like breathing.

"This……"

Qingyu didn't know what to say.

The main reason was that he genuinely didn't know what kind of connection he could have with Rayquaza, which led to Rayquaza repeatedly appearing in front of him and even bringing him an evolution stone that was very important to Salamence.

It always gives me the feeling that I have a personal old man with me.

But I don't think I can be considered the "chosen one," since the evolution stone is meant for Bagon.

Thinking about it carefully, the Pokémon I have at home are all rather illegitimate:

Eevee learned to sketch and became good friends with Mew.

Riolu trains in the Invisible Fist at the Isle of Armor Dojo, putting in a hundred times the effort;
Milton, crippled in battle with his nemesis, is temporarily lying low and doing nothing; and there's also the baby dragon who possesses a "natural treasure" just three days after birth...

Aoba's complicated gaze swept over the Pokémon lined up in front of him.

Is it true that everyone in my family except me is a chosen one?

No, if I can recruit so many companions with "protagonist aura," then I should be the one who is even more extraordinary.

Yes, that's me for you!

"Perhaps, Mr. Qingyu, you can start trying to get your baby dragon to wear this evolution stone now."

Genji, who was standing to the side, spoke up again, offering a timely reminder.

"This evolution stone also contains some energy from Rayquaza, which may be beneficial to the growth of Beast Dragon and make it more energetic."

Qingyu scratched his head, looking embarrassed.

what?
If we can make this precious dragon even more energetic...?
I must ram myself eight hundred times a day!
But if, because of this, Baby Dragon misses out on the possibility of further improving its strength in the future, my conscience as a trainer will also hurt...

After letting out a soft sigh, Qingyu nodded solemnly.

"I understand, thank you, Mr. Genji."

If it weren't for the reminder from this Elite Four member who clearly knew more about evolution stones, he probably wouldn't have thought of such a deep level.

Seeing Qingyu's serious expression, Genji couldn't help but laugh out loud, then patted him on the shoulder:

"Laugh if you want to. Dragon riders don't necessarily have to keep a straight face like Mr. Adu every day. Being yourself is the most important thing!"

"I'm looking forward to your future with this little dragon. If you have time to come to Hoenn in the future, I hope I can have a match with the evolved Salamence."

"I have high hopes for this child's future!"

"..."

A bead of cold sweat quickly trickled down Qingyu's forehead.

Is it too early to say this now?
If I haven't evolved my Pokémon by then, wouldn't I look like a useless trainer...?

"Next time definitely!"

After skillfully glossing over the matter, Aoba quickly watched Genji leave.

Thus, the Dragon-type Master Tournament in Tabletop City came to a perfect end.

Despite the minor incident involving Rayquaza, this Masters Tournament was generally very satisfying.

It truly ensured that both players and spectators could fully enjoy the competition, and the legendary Pokémon that appeared at the end made today even more legendary.

at the same time.

Following titles such as "Gym Leader with the Most Negative Reviews in Padiya", "Head Coach of 800,000 Students at Orange Academy", and "Most High-Quality Battle Streamer on Pokémon TV".

Qingyu has once again won the honor of "the man favored by the Sky Thrower".

Because of the live stream recording as proof, his appearance alongside Liekongzuo truly made him a viral sensation across the internet.

However, the Padia Gym Leader, who had made a splash at this year's Masters tournament, was packing his bags to return to his hometown of Sinnoh.
