Even Sinnoh champions have to work hard.

With a righteous air, he raised his head, his face flushed with embarrassment, and looked at Charizard with an indescribable expression in his eyes: "I think I can feel it. Can you feel it, Charizard?"

"Roar!" The Charizard roared softly, responding to the righteous and awe-inspiring call.

His righteous eyes seemed to be brimming with tears: "Yes, it feels great, but..." A hint of confusion flashed in his righteous eyes: "Something's not right, I feel like there's something... that's not being conveyed."

Kazama Shiramo chuckled, stroking the righteous dog's head: "The first time was like this. I used my superpower of telepathy to build a bridge between you, but you still have to build this bridge yourselves slowly."

Kazama Shiramo didn't tell Zheng Yilinran some things. Although Keystones and Mega Stones were the mainstream of Mega Evolution in this world, Kazama Shiramo himself was quite resistant to these external things.

That's right. With the help of Keystones and Evolution Stones, even relatively ordinary trainers can easily achieve Mega Evolution, which has lowered the threshold for Mega Evolution. The earliest method of Mega Evolution was also based on Keystones and Evolution Stones.

However, Kazama Shirobuchi himself doesn't really like these things. It's not that Keystones and Mega Stones are bad, but he prefers to achieve Mega Evolution slowly through gradual telepathy. Moreover, since he already possesses the superpower of telepathy, he certainly has the right not to use these things. After all, telepathy can also be achieved through superpowers.

Kazama Shiromo naturally hopes that his disciple can be like him, not relying on Keystones and Evolution Stones, but relying on the deep bond between himself and his Pokémon to achieve Mega Evolution.

This kind of Mega Evolution, which does not rely on external objects, is more substantial and reliable than ordinary Mega Evolution.

"Give it a try." Kazama Shiramo smiled at the righteous and awe-inspiring man. "Try to make Charizard Mega Evolve. Although it's only a temporary evolution, if you can master it and make Charizard Mega Evolve, then you'll be qualified to compete for this year's Indigo League Championship!"

With a righteous expression, he nodded, turned around, and softly called out to Charizard, "Charizard! Mega Evolve!"

"Awooo!!!"

A deafening roar of a dragon began to echo across the wilderness. The flames on the Charizard's tail burned even more fiercely, and eventually its entire body began to be engulfed in flames. The Charizard seemed to have been elevated within the flames.

The rapidly burning flames distorted the air, and the raging fire-breathing dragon changed. The originally crimson flames gradually turned dark blue, as if they had fallen into the deepest hell.

As the flames changed, Charizard also gradually changed. The eerie blue flames burned on Charizard's body, and its fiery red body turned pitch black, like a dragon rising from hell, powerful and handsome. Its horns became more and more prominent, and it began to truly become a dragon!

"Just as I expected." Kazama Shiramo stroked his chin, observing the changes in the Charizard.

Charizard is a special case; it is one of the few Pokémon that can Mega Evolve and have both X and Y forms. Charizard's Mega Evolution generally changes depending on the Mega Stone used.

If the Mega Stone is an X Stone, Charizard will evolve into Mega Charizard X. Conversely, if the Mega Stone is a Y Stone, Charizard will evolve into Mega Charizard Y.

These are two different evolutionary choices. If it evolves into Mega Charizard Y, then Charizard will completely focus on the fire attribute, and its fire ability will be sublimated to an unprecedented level, reaching an ultimate fire, and even its ability will change to - Drought!

Conversely, if Charizard evolves into Mega Charizard X, then Charizard will become a true dragon! It will no longer be a Dragon-type Pokémon, but a true Dragon-type Pokémon, with its physical abilities growing dramatically, becoming a truly terrifying—fire dragon!

Without relying on Mega Evolution Stones to evolve, Charizard evolves according to its own inherent characteristics.

Knowing that Charizard's body was predominantly Dragon-type, Kazama Shiramo had already guessed this outcome. The righteous Charizard transformed into Mega Charizard X in the dark blue flames!

Kazama Shiromoto smiled with satisfaction, but at that moment, things took a turn for the worse.

Chapter 9 Three Silly Birds

Mega Charizard's aura reached its peak, a feeling that had already crossed the threshold of the Champion level, however...

The Charizard changed; its expression turned to pain, its eyes became distorted, and flames flickered, followed by flashes of white light.

Charizard knelt on the ground, its completed Mega Evolution... vanished.

"Charizard!" Righteous and resolute, he quickly stepped forward, stroking the fallen Charizard, his worry practically written all over his face.

"Master, why is this happening?"

You need to ask yourself.

Kazama Shiramo looked at his righteous gaze with a hint of scrutiny: "The Mega Evolution is complete, and the construction part is fine. You need to ask yourself why this Mega Evolution shattered so quickly. Where exactly is the barrier between you and Charizard?"

To be honest, Kazama Shiramo hadn't expected this instant Mega Evolution. For the first time, he began to scrutinize his sixteen-year-old disciple. It was only natural for a sixteen-year-old girl to have her own thoughts, and Kazama Shiramo wouldn't mind if she was hiding something from him.

After all, everyone has some little secrets they can't tell. Even I slept with Rie and Erika without telling her. Everyone has their own secrets. Just like those guys in the group who are handsome, good writers, and have girlfriends—the winners in life—don't they often go to poverty alleviation groups behind their girlfriends' or even wives' backs?

They claim that those pretty young ladies are so pitiful, and that seeing them dressed so scantily and unable to afford clothes makes them want to give them a little money to buy clothes. Is that too much to ask? Not at all!

Girls are naturally more sensitive, and it's perfectly normal for a girl of sixteen to have some little thoughts.

However, what Kazama Shiramo couldn't understand was why Charizard, as the starter Pokémon of the righteous and awe-inspiring, had accompanied him all the way, so why would the righteous and awe-inspiring still be wary of Charizard?

"I don't know!" Justice-Head-Crunching-Defense-Solemnly crouched down next to Charizard, covering his head and looking dejected.

Kazama Shiromo gently patted the righteous dog's head and comforted it, "Take it slow. After all, the Mega Evolution is complete. As for why your bond is so fragile, that's a problem you need to consider yourselves. I can't help you with that; you'll have to solve it yourself."

The righteous man looked at the Charizard kneeling on the ground, its eyes filled with confusion, and fell silent.

"No rush." ​​Kazama Shiramo stroked the righteous dog's head. "This isn't a matter of strength or talent. It's a hurdle that you and Charizard need to overcome together. Have a good talk with Charizard. What exactly is the problem between you two?"

She bit her lip, her expression righteous, as she stared at the Charizard. Perhaps she already knew where the problem lay, but some things... she couldn't say...

"Get ready, we're heading to the Indigo Plateau, but don't worry." Kazama Shiramo patted the righteous dog's head: "It's not that fast, we won't need Charizard's Mega Evolution."

Regardless of the region, there are always some unspoken rules in the conference, since there is no public lottery for group assignments, and there is always room for manipulation.

Before the competition, the league staff will group the players with the best strength and talent known before the competition into different groups. Otherwise, if it is just a random draw, if the group stage puts strong players like Linran, Qiong, Qiyou, Lingxi, and Quansheying into the same group, while the players in other groups are not good, even the audience would not be able to stand it!

For example, during the S6 World Championship, SKT, WE, RNG, and SSG were grouped together in the group stage. Not to mention the organizers, even the viewers couldn't stand it!

Therefore, there are some hidden unspoken rules in this grouping process, which are all tacitly accepted. Only from the round of 16 onwards will the draw become completely transparent, and that will be the truly random grouping.

Therefore, at least before the round of 16, strong players will not encounter each other, unless they are dark horse players that the league did not know beforehand. Otherwise, theoretically, there is no possibility of them clashing.

So, there's still time for Justice to prevail. Kazama Shiramo doesn't know the exact nature of the rift between Charizard and her, but if this knot in her heart isn't resolved before the battle with Yulong Lingxi…

Those who uphold justice will only face defeat and destruction.

After all, there is a huge gap between the Heavenly King level and the Dojo level, so it is not impossible for one person to defeat six.

Kanto, the Orange Islands.

In the Orange Islands live three legendary Pokémon—Moblus, Zapdos, and Articuno.

It's worth mentioning that these three Pokémon are somewhat special. Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno are actually not all one; they belong to the same family of Pokémon. Although they are few in number, there are actually more than one Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno!

However, only three legendary Pokémon from the Orange Islands can be called legendary Pokémon and ranked among the three legendary subordinate Pokémon. They are unique among all legendary Pokémon and are known as the three legendary birds!

Of course, because these three idiots are so stupid, their leader, the sea god Lugia, is more used to calling them—the Three Silly Birds!

The three idiots hold a very special place in this world. In some ways, they are more important than some legendary Pokémon, as they possess the ability to influence the weather changes of the entire world.

This is the ability they gained after upgrading from ordinary Pokémon to legendary Pokémon and connecting with the world. So even though the three Skaven are the three legendary Pokémon, their specialness is very important. Of course, with this ability comes shackles and responsibilities. For this reason, the three Skaven can never leave the Orange Islands for their entire lives, because it would cause turmoil in the whole world.

The three idiots lead rather boring lives. Unlike Rayquaza, who stays at home in Sky Tower and lives on game consoles, comics, novels, and other such things, the three idiots do not stay at home out of their own volition.

The three idiots, who didn't know what comics, novels, or games were, led incredibly boring lives.

They had few ways to pass the time, but one of their most frequent activities was to flirt with their beautiful, aloof leader—the sea goddess Lugia.

This is the fifth update. I've been sitting in front of the computer writing non-stop since 3 PM, except for a quick bite of instant noodles. I was too busy before and didn't have any drafts saved up, so I had to write slowly here. My phone was off, my computer was locked, and I've been writing like crazy for seven or eight hours. My legs are numb now. I'm afraid of getting criticized for writing filler, so the plot is all solid content. I've written up to the "Three Silly Birds" part even faster than I originally planned. I'm struggling with writer's block, but I'm forcing myself to work through it word by word. I don't know how to describe my feelings. As soon as the climax of the last volume ended, the monthly votes plummeted, and the ranking kept dropping. I can't say I'm resentful, well, I am. That feeling of watching the book's rankings decline step by step and feeling powerless is really awful. Right now, all I want is a monthly vote, really.

Chapter 10 The Three Silly Girls Artist

Yes, the unique nature of the three birds makes them more important than other Tier 3 gods, and Lugia's gentle nature means he doesn't like to discipline or restrain them.

They treat their children like their own children, and they can't bear to hit or scold them.

Although Lugia has a cunning side, dealing with three fearless and mischievous kids is quite a headache, especially at certain times...

In the Asian archipelago of the Orange Islands, three isolated islands are arranged in a triangle.

Fire Island, Thunder Island, and Ice Island are the homes of Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno, respectively.

The question is, what can we learn from this? Let's do a simple comparative analysis.

Compared to Rayquaza, who is also a homebody like the three legendary birds, Rayquaza is unwilling to go out and only wants to stay in his own little world. The three legendary birds, on the other hand, are forced to stay in the Orange Islands. Fundamentally, there is a big difference between voluntary and forced.

After all, Rayquaza is a magical being who can stay in the Sky Tower indefinitely as long as there are otaku items such as manga, games, and doujinshi. Such an otaku girl cannot be understood by common sense. On the other hand, the three legendary birds are three lively and active lolis. It is quite cruel that they are forced to stay in the Orange Islands because of their playful nature.

Of course, the three birds are actually very well-behaved. Whether it's Moltres, Zapdos, or Articuno, they all know very well that if they don't stay at home obediently, they will cause trouble and a lot of problems for everyone. So, despite not liking it, the three birds still obediently stay at home.

But children always love to play and make noise; after all, it's their nature, so these behaviors are understandable.

But sometimes...

"How boring." The Moltres, who was staying at home on Fire Island, waved its claws around and picked up a piece of charcoal. It was a charcoal pencil that it had carefully made with its own flames when it had nothing else to do.

The firebird's flames precisely scorched the slender wooden stick, carefully burning the pen tip into charcoal and sharpening it into a sharp point, while ensuring the pen barrel remained unburnt, thus maintaining its smoothness and stability.

This results in a simple yet highly practical charcoal pencil. Although the graphic design is somewhat unacceptable, much like the outsourced graphic designers who are the lifelong nemesis of book authors, its practicality is still quite high.

After all, this thing is the same as the banner in the recommendation section; as long as it's useful, that's enough.

Moltres gently traced beautiful circles on the stone wall with its claws, and one by one, exquisite images of Pokémon were drawn: a Moltres, a Zapdos, a Zapdos, and a Lugia. Putting aside the subjective factor that Zapdos and Articuno looked unexpectedly ugly for some reason, the drawing was very beautiful.

Lugia is nestled in the arms of a very cute Moltres, while two obviously distorted Articuno and Zapdos stand nearby, displaying very human-like expressions of jealousy. This is clearly a picture with a strong subjective element, but it is also very artistically valuable.

Unfortunately, the island of fire where the Moltres lives is inaccessible to humans; otherwise, this mural would surely have been revered as a timeless work of art.

It's worth mentioning that this beautiful mural not only features four legendary Pokémon, but also a human boy who looks rather young.

————————————————————————————

"What a boring day!" The Zapdos, lying on Thunder Island in a strange posture out of sheer boredom, frantically condensed its electricity, which then precisely transformed into a shaped blade of lightning.

Zapdos' movements were quite wild, its Thunder Blade wildly and frantically drawing on the stone wall. Unlike Moltres's style of gradually covering and slowly spreading the blade, Zapdos' movements were wide and sweeping, like wild cursive calligraphy dancing.

In Zapdos's hands, the Thunder Blade moved with the agility of a dancing sprite, and as Zapdos wielded it with abandon, a stone carving rapidly took shape.

One by one, the characters are gradually revealed. Although Zapdos's wild movements make these characters less clear, they have a special flavor, and each character is clearly identifiable.

Hmm, what kind of scene is that? Well, if the Moltres mural's intention to vilify Articuno and Zapdos is relatively subtle, then the meaning expressed in this Zapdos stone carving is quite blatant!

A majestic Zapdos held its head high, accepting Lugia's praise. Beneath her claws, a Moltres and an Articuno were being rubbed into the ground, trembling in fear.

This stone carving fully expresses the origin of Long Aotian's ideology; of course, it's also possible that Long Aotian would pin Lugia to the ground along with him.

Of course, in this same wild moment, there is also a human boy. The human boy and Lugia stand quietly together, expressing a hint of ambiguity.

————————————————————————————

"When will this boring day end?" Articuno, who was so bored on the Ice Island that it wanted to gnaw on its claws, waved its cold air and used the Freeze Beam with precision.

Compared to Moltres and Zapdos, Articuno's movements perfectly exemplify what precision and elegance mean. Articuno continues its precise and elegant movements, alternating between Freeze Beam and Bubble Beam, creating... ice sculptures in this cold cave.

Yes, the temperature inside the cave where Articuno lives ensures that the ice won't melt, allowing Articuno to carry out its elegant and precise artistic creations.

Each exquisite image was sketched out, and the images of Moltres, Zapdos, Articuno, and Lugia were all presented as beautiful ice sculptures.
