Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

After all, the two families were neighbors and were familiar with visiting each other. Lowe greeted them warmly, and Dr. Odamaki patted Lowe's shoulder with satisfaction.

"You've already got four badges so quickly? Haha, I was right!"

It was Professor Odamaki who identified Lowe's talent and applied to the League in exchange for Lowe having a partner Pokémon in advance. Lowe was naturally very grateful for this.

"Here, Doctor~"

Lowe took out the illustrated book from his pocket and handed it over. Along the way, he naturally did not forget the doctor's commission. He had been carefully recording Pokémon from all over the world, and now he has collected a large number of illustrated books.

"oh oh!"

The doctor quickly reached out to take it, then pulled out a device that was quite similar to the atlas from his pocket. After a simple scan, he copied all the information collected in Lowe's atlas into it.

"Have you collected so much?" The doctor took a look and nodded repeatedly, "It seems that entrusting Lowe was the right choice. How is it? It must be an interesting journey, right?"

"Haha, indeed..." Lowe nodded vigorously. Although he had encountered a lot of troubles during this period, it was, after all, a very interesting journey and a memory worth remembering.

"That's good. I'll take care of you from now on..." Dr. Odamaki returned the illustrated book to Lowe, then he said after thinking for a while, "Then, this..."

The Doctor looked at Liliae beside Lowe. He already knew Liliae's identity. After all, he was one of the people specially invited to handle matters related to the Ultimate Beasts.

Now that it has been confirmed that the investigation has revealed a connection between the Ultra Beasts and the Aether Foundation, then the Doctor must know Liliae, who is also one of the direct parties involved.

"...Well, it seems like we have something important to discuss. So, let's leave it alone for now~"

Lowe's mother noticed the atmosphere at the scene, smiled and waved, then went to the kitchen and started to get busy, leaving the living room space to Lowe.

"...Hmm, nice to meet you, Miss Liliae. Thank you for your guidance."

"Ah, this is it, please give me your guidance... Dr. Odamaki!"

After all, the person on the other side is a well-known figure in the Pokémon academic community, a genuine academic giant. Most people will subconsciously respect such technical talents who rely on their brains.

This is partly about respect for the scholars themselves, but more about respect for the "truth" that the scholars hold...

"Ahem, regarding the Ultra Beasts... we have made some progress in our research. Now we can be sure that the Ultra Beasts do not belong to our world, but they are indeed Pokémon!"

Before that, there were different opinions on whether Ultra Beasts were Pokémon or not, and the academic community had been arguing for several years without coming to a conclusion.

Finally, as the research continued to deepen, not long ago, Dr. Odamaki, together with several academic leaders, released a conclusion that put an end to everything.

Ultra Beast is indeed a Pokémon, which also proves that in addition to the world we live in now, there are different worlds, and these worlds also have Pokémon and even civilization.

"This is truly... an exciting discovery!"

Chapter 190: Pokémon from the End of the World

As the research on Ultra Beasts deepens, it can finally be confirmed that they are Pokémon, and that they are Pokémon from another world.

It is truly an exciting discovery that Pokémon and even civilization exist in other worlds.

What is the civilization of that world like? Are the intelligent creatures of that world also human? What is the ecological environment of that world like? What is the relationship between humans and Pokémon and nature in that world like?

This is something that can really arouse the strong interest of all kinds of people, but given the various reports and records of the Ultimate Beasts, it is also a disturbing thought.

Would the civilization and intelligent creatures in that world be unfriendly to our world?

Although most people in the Pokémon world have high moral standards, it does not mean that they are unaware of the evil nature of human nature. After all, there is Team Rocket to give everyone strength.

At the beginning, Du Juan believed that as long as Team Rocket was destroyed, the world would usher in peace. However, she later told Lowe that she realized that this idea was actually naive.

This is proven to be the case. After Team Rocket disappeared, Team Magma and Team Aqua appeared. In addition, there are various villain organizations popping up all over the world.

Hoping for world peace is just a beautiful vision. We all know that this is definitely not that easy. Even among humans in this world who know everything about themselves, there are so many people who want to cause trouble. What about the other world where we have no idea what's going on?

So, no matter how excited they are, they must be on guard. However, Lowe feels that the situation may be different from what everyone thinks.

"What I saw at the beginning..." Lowe recounted the scene he saw after he first awakened his ultimate power. In fact, he had already said this once before, but after all, he could not be sure whether it was an illusion or a real scene and residual memory.

At this moment, after experiencing the power of awakening mega evolution and seeing the memories left behind by the original Meteor People, they can now corroborate each other.

What Lowe saw at the time was definitely not an illusion, but the real fact, that is the true face of another world.

"From what I saw, the humans or civilization of that world... may have been destroyed..."

The source of the destruction of that civilization was the war between gods, the battle between the Sun and Moon Gods and the god of light. It even involved our world, the four island gods indigenous to the Alola region!

After they lost to the Sun and Moon Gods, they were granted power by them and became gods subordinate to them. They also participated in that war. In the end, the city that Lowe saw, which looked extremely high-tech, was reduced to ruins in the war of gods.

As to why it turned out like this, it is not very clear, but it is certain that the civilization of that world is definitely not in a good state.

"That's it..."

Dr. Odamaki nodded silently. If the civilization of that world had been destroyed and the entire world had become doomsday, then it was indeed easy to understand why the Ultra Beasts would be so aggressive...

The remnants of civilization living in the apocalypse will instinctively attack all living things they see. In the apocalypse, this is the "natural" rule of survival...

...In a world where civilization and order have collapsed, the only truth is to eliminate the weak and retain the strong. If you don't attack others, others may attack you. In this case, you must strike first!

"In this case……"

"In this case, the research value of the Ultimate Beasts is actually even greater..."

A prosperous civilization is certainly worth studying, but considering the dangers of mutual contact, its priority is actually questionable. Instead of studying contact, it may be best to simply cut off contact and never have any interaction.

However, a destroyed civilization is much more valuable. Not only do we not have to worry about being attacked by the other side when the two civilizations come into contact, but there will be few living people left on the other side anyway.

Apart from the ability to obtain information and technology left behind by the other civilization, the "civilization destruction" model itself is of sufficient reference value.

Why did this civilization perish? What wrong choices did they make that led to such an outcome?

These are all very valuable things, even more valuable than the existence of civilization itself...

Of course, this thing can be said to be valuable, but it can also be said to be worthless. After all, everyone knows the cruelty of war, yet there are still people who are always hoping for chaos in the world.

Even if we know the reason for the destruction of the other civilization, we still can't avoid it, but at least there is one benefit...

...If I really get destroyed for the same reason, at least I'll know how I died, and at least I can be a clear-headed ghost.

"In short, we still need to be cautious when contacting the other side, because there is a high possibility that there are wrong cases in front of us..."

The so-called wrong case is naturally President Lusamine. It is very likely that she was careless in contact with another world and was affected in some way, which led to the current series of events.

"...Well, Mom has caused a lot of trouble for everyone."

As a daughter, Liliae was extremely ashamed at the moment, and Lowe quickly replied.

"This isn't Liliae's fault, there's no need to blame yourself for it. Anyway, the important thing is to find a way to stop President Lusamine as soon as possible. But then again, what have you gained from the investigation?"

The Alliance has already arranged personnel to investigate the Ether Foundation, and the main targets of the investigation are not only President Lusamine, but also her right-hand men.

The two technical directors, Zaobo and Bi Ke, are also the focus of investigation.

As the eldest daughter of the Aether Foundation, Liliae certainly knew both of them.

"Ah, Minister Pico is a very gentle person, and has always taken good care of me. As for Minister Zaobo, well, he is a very ambitious person, and has always been immersed in various researches..."

The results of the Alliance's investigation are consistent with what Lillie said. Minister Pico is a very easy-going woman. After all, the Aether Foundation is a charity organization whose main purpose is to rescue various wild Pokémon populations that are on the verge of survival.

As the technical director and a person active on the front line, President Pico loves Pokémon, or rather, she loves all life and is a very caring big sister.

As for Minister Zaobo, he is a very ambitious and capable man. This is nothing surprising. Any large organization can find such capable and ambitious people who want to do something.

He has little interest in other things and is only focused on achieving results and standing out.

if it is like this……

"...President Lusamine's plan is likely to be directly related to Minister Zaobo, and Minister Pico may be able to help us break through our current predicament!"

Chapter 191: Bring your family to watch the battle

In short, the alliance currently intends to use Minister Pico as a breakthrough point to infiltrate the Aether Foundation and learn about the relevant content related to the Ultra Beasts.

"Well, if it's Minister Pico, then maybe I can try to convince her!"

Over there, Liliae spoke like this. She seemed to be quite familiar with that Minister Piccolo. Although Piccolo was a subordinate of President Lusamine, if it was Liliae, she felt that she might be able to persuade the other party.

Because Liliae believed that the minister would be willing to help, and the other party had probably already noticed that something was wrong with Lusamine's actions.

"If that's the case, then it's great. However, if that Minister Pico is also part of President Lusamine's plan, and has become an accomplice of the plan, then if Liliae goes to her, she will most likely fall into a trap."

Lowe pointed out the crux of the problem. It was indeed as Lowe said. If Minister Pico was really as she appeared to be, a very loving and caring big sister who was passionate about all life, then if Liliae went to her for help, she would definitely agree.

But if all this was an act, and she was also part of President Lusamine's plan, then the situation would be quite bad. Lillie's act of seeking help from the other party was tantamount to walking into a trap and actively exposing her whereabouts.

"Moreover, this will also expose the alliance's plan, which is equivalent to alerting the enemy..."

After talking about the interests involved, Lowe continued to look at Liliae, "So, even after knowing this, do you still plan to continue?"

Lilia remained silent. However, after careful consideration, she nodded vigorously. "Well, I think... my judgment this time should be correct, so..."

"Oh, that's no problem~"

Lilia didn't even need to explain the reason. The first half of the sentence was enough for Lowe...

What Liliae had been thinking about was "what to do". She hasn't found the answer yet, but she hopes to start with what she can do.

And now, she found what she could do, which was to try to persuade Minister Pico to assist her.

As long as there is an insider, things will be much easier. Although Lillie is also a member of the Ether Foundation, she has never been exposed to any internal affairs. However, Pico and Zaobo are technical directors and have in-depth contact with most of the relevant affairs of the Ether Foundation.

As long as we can get the assistance of one of them, the investigation will naturally go much more smoothly. However, it is very likely that Zaobo is deeply involved in this matter, so it is impossible to find him.

Then only Minister Pico has a chance to break the impasse, so Liliae decided to take a gamble.

“Well, I’ll ask Liliae to make the contact later. Of course, I’ll come to help~ But before that…”

Lowe stood up and held out his hand to everyone with a smile, "Let me take Dad's badge first. Everyone, are you willing to come and cheer me on?"

Not only Liliae, Lowe also plans to take his mother and Professor Odamaki with him. After all, Chenghua City is only half a day's distance from Mobai Town, so they can make a round trip on the same day.

"Eh? If that's the case, wouldn't it be difficult to cheer anyone up?"

The mother said this with a smile and joked. After all, on both sides of the battle, one was her husband and the other was her son. She was really confused about who to cheer for. However, having said that, she had decided early on that she must go to the scene.

After all, this was Lowe's first official challenge to his father, and as a mother and wife, she had to be there for both emotional and logical reasons...

Dr. Odamaki has watched Lowe grow up, and has been a good friend and neighbor of the Chisato couple for many years. Naturally, he is very interested in the outcome of this game.

So without much thought, everyone agreed to it readily.
