Elf: I have a secret realm of emerald green.

"Compare--"

The Warrior Eagle and Pidgeot were exchanging messages that seemed to have no meaning, and Xia Shen had no idea what they were saying.

But suddenly he felt the wind in his ears become sharper and the airflow around him became faster.

Oh no, are they racing...? Xia Shen's heart skipped a beat.

That's quite possible. Given the Pidgeot's temperament, it wouldn't tolerate any other bird being arrogant in front of it.

However, if the Warrior Eagle's characteristic is its indomitable spirit...

Good grief, isn't this just two-way rage?

Xia Shen quickly lowered his head and shouted at the eagle, "We're going to be here for a long time, and there will be plenty of opportunities to race in the future. Brother Eagle, please let me go, okay?"

Pidgeot then remembered that he had brought someone with him, and turned to cry out to the Warrior Eagle.

"By the way, I brought a noob this time. I'll come back next time and teach you what real speed is!"

Not to be outdone, the other side responded with a reply, as if an agreement had been reached, and then flapped its wings and flew away.

------

They finally arrived at the small island in Wise Lake. Xia Shen recalled Pidgeot and looked thoughtfully at the only boulder on the island.

This place is not much different from the scene in the game. Legend has it that Yukshi lives in an alternate dimension of the Wise Lake, and this should be the entrance.

Xia Shen took out the Arceus phone and tried to see if there were any changes on the screen. He actually found a new icon.

Xia Shen opened the app and looked at the QR code that appeared on her phone, which resembled a real-world QR code for scanning. Her expression was strange.

Arceus... he really keeps up with the times.

However, since the method of entry had already been clearly indicated, Xia Shen stopped thinking about it and pointed his phone at the boulder in front of him.

Without any warning, a glowing entrance, like a teleportation portal, suddenly appeared on the stone, and Xia Shen stepped inside.

When I turned around again, there was nothing unusual behind me.

Xia Shen looked around and found himself in a dark, enclosed, and boundless space.

There was no light source here, and it was unclear where the dim light came from; in short, Xia Shen could barely see anything in this environment.

Is this the alternate dimension where Yukshi lives?

It was empty and lonely, no wonder that Yuxi was asleep before she appeared.

But how do we find it in such a big place?

Xia Shen pondered.

The leader of Zoroark suggested that he come to find Yuxie after seeing Pidgeot, so the key point might be Pidgeot?

Because Pidgeot is a Pokémon that does not exist in this time and space, Yuxie, the god of knowledge, would be interested in him and then appear.

This simple reasoning seemed quite logical, and Xia Shen thought it was worth a try, so he summoned Pidgeot from his Poké Ball.

"Bi-Diao—" Bi-Diao was very unhappy with Xia Shen's behavior of calling him out.

It woke me up just as I was falling asleep in the ball. Doesn't it let the eagle rest?

Xia Shen quickly explained to him, "Brother Diao, this time I'm not flying, I'm just coming out to be a model."

Models? Although he didn't know who the audience was, Pidgeot immediately perked up and showed his best self.

This is something I, Diao Ge, am good at. When I'm at the manor, a few people often come to visit with Yan Ba, and I'm always the most handsome guy in the manor.

……

"Who are you? How did you get in? And who is this elf?"

A voice suddenly rang in Xia Shen's mind, sounding neutral and calm, rational as if it were a distant, unreachable place.

Is it through Keshi's telepathy?

Xia Shen felt a chill run down his spine; sure enough, it had appeared.

"I am Xia Shen, a human from another world. I came here through an item bestowed upon me by Arceus. As for this elf, he, like me, also comes from another world."

Xia Shen answered truthfully, no longer daring to use the title of Divine Messenger.

Legend has it that Yukeshi symbolizes honesty and wisdom, and Xia Shen dared not presume to be clever in its presence.

"The Creator God?" The words had barely left Xia Shen's mind when a tiny, elfin-like sprite suddenly appeared before him.

Its body is gray, and it has two tails of the same color that are raised behind it, each with a red gem that emits a strange light at the end.

The helmet-like decorations on the face and head are yellow, symbolizing wisdom.

Such obvious characteristics reassured Ke Xi and Xia Shen.

Yukshi's eyes were closed, as if she hadn't woken up yet.

But Xia Shen knew that, supposedly, anyone who looked into its eyes would have their memories erased.

"Can I see what the Creator God gave you?" Yukshi's voice was no longer calm, but filled with curiosity.

Xia Shen handed the Arceus phone to it without hesitation.

In the original setting, the three sacred mushrooms were created by Arceus and represent wisdom, emotion, and willpower respectively.

For Yuxi, Arceus must have been a father figure, which explains why it was so curious about anything related to Arceus.

"As expected, it is an item imbued with the aura of the creator god."

After confirming with Kexi, he used his superpowers to return the phone to Xia Shen.

"So, what brings you here to see me?"

It floated in the air and circled around Xia Shen, showing a hint of intimacy.

Now that she is recognized by the creator god, Yuxi is no longer the aloof or shy person she was at the beginning.

"I've come to visit you~" Xia Shen said with a smile.

He wasn't lying; his primary reason for seeking out Yuxie was indeed his curiosity about legendary Pokémon.

Mythical Pokémon! Even if it's just the three silly birds, their prestige is unmatched by ordinary Pokémon.

Xia Shen will be able to say, "I'm someone who has chatted and laughed with mythical beasts."

As for the gains that Soroyak mentioned, Xia Shen felt that they were secondary.

He became more and more excited as he thought about it. This was his first time getting so close to a mythical beast, and he had to make a lasting memory of it.

"Yukishi, can I take a picture with you?"

"A group photo? What's that? It's combining the shadows of two people?"

Yukshi was very curious because he was surprised that there were things he, the god of wisdom, did not know.

Xia Shen's reaction is not surprising, just as Newton did not understand relativity and string theory; this is a limitation of history.

This world of Xicui is only so big, it's perfectly normal that Yukexi doesn't know what a group photo is.

"Group photos are a product of technology in our world, capable of freezing a moment forever," Xia Shen explained in the simplest terms.

"Wow, that's amazing! Yuuki wants to take a picture with you!"

Yu Kexi's voice was a little excited, and Xia Shen was afraid that its eyes would suddenly open.

He took out his Arceus phone, stretched his hand forward, and beckoned Yuksi to stop beside him. Then he opened the front camera and made several "click" sounds.

Then the two of them, one with a mushroom, exclaimed in amazement at the image on their phone—

"The group photo is amazing!"

"This photo is really cool!"

……

"This is so interesting! What else is different in this other world?"

Yukshi completely transformed into a curious child, floating on the head of Pidgeot, who had fallen asleep sometime earlier, observing him while chatting with Xia Shen.

Xia Shen was stumped. How should I answer this question? After thinking for a moment, this was the only answer I could come up with.

"Well, most of what your world has, we also have in our world, and only a small part of it..."

According to the Pokédex, there are only about two hundred Pokémon species in the Greenland region, including their evolved forms.

In the real world, which encompasses all generations, there are over eight hundred different kinds of elves.

Not to mention the vastly different levels of technology between the two worlds.

With its mouth wide open and its eyes still closed, Yukshi looked both comical and adorable.

"My goodness! Is it really that amazing? Tell me about it!"

Xia Shen said with annoyance, "That's too much. I could talk for three days and three nights and still not finish. Besides, I'm going back to my world soon, so I can only talk about things that interest you first."

"Something you're interested in? Then tell me about some elves I've never seen before!"

Xia Shen estimated that there were still about three hours before returning to the real world.

We'll set aside an hour to go back and pick up Zoroya; two hours is more than enough time to talk about many things.

But it's dry and boring to just tell the story. Wouldn't it be much more interesting to weave many elves into one story?

Wait, isn't there one already...?

Xia Shen smiled, cleared his throat, and said, "Then let me tell you the story of a boy named Xiao Zhi, his friends, and his Pokémon, as they travel and adventure to become a Pokémon Master!"

"Near Viridian Forest in the Kanto region, there's a place called Pallet Town. The story begins with Ash and his special Pikachu..."
