The dream of becoming a Pokémon master

"Among three people walking together, there must be one who can teach me." Kyosuke strongly agrees with this saying.

One person's thinking is always limited, but having more people can open up new avenues of thought.

The next two Pokémon on the journey are Articuno and Moltres, so Kyosuke took a good look at the capture plans for these two legendary Pokémon (brainstorming).

A method for capturing frozen birds.

Standard version: Bring three Fire-type and three Rock-type Pokémon, and then gang up on Articuno, splitting them up one by one. The key is that you don't need to worry about chivalry when facing legendary Pokémon. Then the trainer just needs to throw Poké Balls like crazy.

Artistic version: Using the rules of one-on-one to achieve a beautiful defeat, they develop a mutual respect with Articuno and then travel together.

Funny version: Summon Moltres to defeat Articuno.

Kyosuke thought about it carefully. He didn't even have six Pokémon yet, and the road to training them to the point where he could challenge legendary Pokémon was still long. As for winning over Articuno through a trainer? He hadn't even caught a single Pokémon himself yet. It felt like only the last option was suitable for him.

He then browsed the Moltres capture plan.

Standard version: Bring three Water-type and three Rock-type Pokémon, and then gang up on Moltres, taking turns attacking it. The key is that you don't need to worry about chivalry when dealing with legendary Pokémon. Then the trainer just needs to throw Poké Balls like crazy.

Artistic version: Using the rules of one-on-one combat to achieve a beautiful defeat, he and Moltres develop a mutual respect and then travel together.

The comedic version: Summon Zapdos to defeat Moltres.

We've returned to where we started.

However, if you catch Moltres, the chances of getting Articuno are also higher, and you'll encounter Moltres more often. So, Moltres is currently my top priority.

"Moblins are four times weak to Rock types and two times weak to Water and Electric types. I need to catch a very high-level Rock/Water or Rock/Electric type Pokémon next." If he continues to train them slowly, he might miss this opportunity altogether. Thinking of this, Kyosuke took out his Pokédex for the first time in a long time and began searching for a suitable Pokémon. Although he had a fairly good theoretical knowledge, he wasn't an omnipotent computer that knew everything.

"Iwakage Den... doesn't exist! But thinking about it carefully, it really doesn't make sense. Lately, I feel like my brain isn't working properly, what's wrong with me?" Kyosuke tapped his head. "I really can't stay up all night anymore."

"Rock and Water... Omanyte, Kabuto, and Water and Rock Corsola. Ah, you're really putting me in a difficult position, Moltres!" Kyosuke was very worried.

Leaving aside the ancient Pokémon, although fossil revival technology is gradually taking shape, the revived Pokémon have lost their original ferocity and become gentle and docile. Moreover, revival requires a complete fossil, making it extremely difficult.

Sun corals are extremely rare in the Kanto region, and are only frequently found on nearby islands and in other areas.

"Today is not a good day to formulate 'Project 2 for capturing mythical beasts'." After comforting himself with this thought, Kyosuke closed the Kanto headquarters and opened the national exchange.

The national forum has a small number of participants, only about a hundred, with no more than ten from each region, and each person is a top performer in their own region. Top-notch braggarts.

This forum will only ever have ten posts.

A pinned post: The evolutionary chain of legendary Pokémon. This is one of the timeless topics that everyone is working together to explore.

The other nine are recent hot topics of discussion in various regions. Of course, some regions may have a few posts while others have none. But this does not affect people's ability to post and obtain information.

Kyosuke's previous understanding of Overlords and Mega Evolution all came from here.

Kyosuke first went to the pinned post to share his experience with everyone: "Everyone, it's been a month, have you missed me? This month I obtained two pre-evolution forms of legendary Pokémon with huge potential, and I will definitely be the first among us to raise a legendary Pokémon."

"Kyosuke, long time no see. We thought you were going down the path of self-destruction. They were even thinking of kicking you out and hiring someone new." - Forum administrator Hana. She claims to be a great beauty but won't post a picture. She and Kyosuke are both from the Kanto region.

"Kyosuke, you're bragging again." This is a reference to Infernape, who is known for his love of the character Infernape from the anime/manga series *Journey to the West*. He's also incredibly lucky to be in the Sinnoh region. He's reportedly twenty years old, has won several tournaments, and his starter Pokémon, Infernape, is unbeatable. However, he doesn't want to be entangled in worldly affairs or become one of the Elite Four.

"What did we catch this time? Lugia's predecessor: Gullwing? Or Mew's descendant: Ditto?" This was the question posed by the forum's legendary user, 4ddragon, who compiled and posted most of the information and was also the author of the pinned post. His obsession with legendary Pokémon shocked everyone on the forum, but his own identity remained a mystery. It was speculated that he might be 3ddragon, a Pokémon that didn't want to appear in reality.

Looking at the familiar IDs, Kyosuke felt a warmth in his heart. Besides Ash and Gary, these were the only other sarcastic friends he had left.

"Haha, this time I got a legendary Pokémon egg. If it doesn't hatch into Ho-Oh, it'll at least be Moltres." Kyosuke glanced at the Spearow egg next to him and typed with a smile.

"Kyosuke, are you near Tokiwa City?" Hana suddenly asked.

"Yeah, what's up?" Could it be that the beautiful administrator is also nearby and wants to meet up? Should I pretend to be reserved or act more enthusiastic? Kyosuke was getting a little excited thinking about it.

"I was just thinking about the news about seeing Ho-Oh in Viridian Forest, and then you mentioned getting a Ho-Oh egg, so naturally I thought of that. But Viridian City hasn't been very peaceful lately, so be careful. Oh, and I have inside information that Viridian City Gym Leader Giovanni got a mysterious Pokémon. If you're a trainer and want to participate in the tournament, you can go and see it, but don't even think about getting the badge." Flower shattered Kyosuke's fantasy.

The words "not peaceful" were bolded by Hua Hua, making them particularly eye-catching. Kyosuke immediately thought of Shiba, whom he had just encountered.

"Let's leave after we finish the gym this afternoon," Kyosuke thought, "maybe this place will be ruins tomorrow."

After replying with "Understood," Kyosuke exited the thread and began browsing interesting stories from other regions.

A netizen from the Alola region expressed a desire to obtain a Gible egg, stating they would pay any price they could afford. While Gible's final evolution, Garchomp, is also a pseudo-legendary, it's unlikely to command such a high price. The original poster also mentioned that Capulius might have an Alolan Ground/Fairy-type form, but declined to provide further details.

A player from the Hoenn region suggested the possibility that there might be more than one legendary Pokémon. He believes that legendary Pokémon don't simply wander around and be seen by humans in various places, but rather that they may exist in different regions. His reasoning is that two of his friends have seen Jirachi, but legend says that Jirachi only awakens for seven days out of a thousand years. This post has sparked a discussion that has lasted for over half a month, but there is still no evidence to prove either side's point of view.
