I caught a Pokémon

Indeed, it was quite terrifying, staring with its red eyes, roaring as it charged at them again.

'It's going to eat Shaymi!!'

Before the group could make a move, Shaymin suddenly shouted, and it was this shout that brought Ash back to his senses, prompting him to command Pikachu to retaliate.

Without hesitation, Pikachu leaped up and unleashed a powerful electric current at the Pokémon.

But unexpectedly, just as the electricity was about to hit the Pokémon, the Pokémon suddenly disappeared!

Before Pikachu could react, the Pokémon reappeared behind them, and the distance had been greatly reduced. Seeing this, Dawn commanded her Piplup to attack with bubbles, but how could its bubbles withstand such an offensive?

Faced with such an attack, this Pokémon didn't even dodge, as if it were unaffected, and just charged straight at it!

Chapter 1023 Giratina!

Faced with such a threat, Xia You and her group once again went into hiding.

Thanks to the extremely low gravity here, as they jumped away, the giant Pokémon once again flew past them.

It was a close call for Ash and Dawn; it seemed that if they had been even half a second slower, they would have been smashed to pieces by this giant Pokémon.

But the two of them always managed to avoid these crucial moments, which was quite amazing.

Seeing that Ash's Pikachu and Dawn's Piplup were no match for this Pokémon, Gengar, concerned for its trainer's safety, decided to take action. But before it could do anything, a voice suddenly rang out from not far away.

"Stop it right now!!"

Upon hearing the voice, the group was taken aback. Then they saw a strange man, accompanied by a dragon-shaped armor, climb up from another platform and stride towards them!

The man looked to be in his thirties or forties. Of course, with his stubble and tired expression, he might look a little younger than his actual age. He was carrying a huge black travel bag, wearing a tattered red T-shirt and shorts, and looked travel-worn, as if he hadn't had a proper rest in a long time.

Upon seeing him, Xiaozhi and the others were taken aback, seemingly never expecting that there would be anyone else in this strange space.

They can be influenced by this man to refrain from attacking, but Gengar cannot.

It would never listen to anyone else's commands except those of its own trainer.

As the Pokémon drew closer, it conjured a Dark Ball and threw it at the figure. The Pokémon seemed unaware of the immense power contained within it, continuing to charge towards them with undiminished momentum without dodging or evading. However, the moment the Dark Ball collided with it, a violent explosion occurred, which actually forced the Pokémon back for a split second!

Seeing this scene, the man next to him opened his mouth in shock, then turned his head and looked at Gengar with an incredulous look, as if he did not expect that it could cause such great damage to that Pokémon!

Seeing that Gengar was about to launch an attack, he snapped out of his daze and immediately shouted, "Don't attack Giratina!"

"Huh?" Ash was taken aback. "Giratina!? Is that it!?"

He had been in Sinnoh for quite some time, and he had heard the name and story of Giratina countless times, so he was naturally familiar with the name. However, he never expected that the Pokémon appearing in front of him was the famous Giratina!

Not to mention him, even Xiao Guang was still reeling from this series of changes.

First, there was the Reverse World, and now Giratina has appeared. Things and Pokémon that only existed in stories before are now happening and appearing right in front of me. It feels incredible, and my mind is still a mess.

After the man finished speaking, he was shocked to see that the Gengar beside him still wouldn't stop. Then, realizing something, he quickly looked behind the Gengar and saw the young trainer's calm gaze.

"That's Giratina! A mythical Pokémon! We need to get out of here quickly, you can't beat it!"

Xia You knew, of course, that this was Giratina.

He already knew this before even entering the Reverse World, and he knew it even more the moment he saw this Pokémon.

That's why he still shows no surprise.

However, upon hearing what this man said, Xia You's eyes flickered slightly, but she didn't say anything, only waving her hand gently.

Gengar seemed to have eyes in the back of its head; even though Xia You was standing behind it, it immediately stopped attacking.

Although it stopped attacking, its mouth drooped, as if it was lamenting that it hadn't been able to fight this Pluto Dragon and felt a little regretful.

After only a short delay, Giratina charged at them again. This time, perhaps because it had just been angered by Gengar, it was even more aggressive, as if it wanted to kill them all.

However, although it was clear that it was very angry with Gengar, it still set its sights on Shaymin!

"Over here!"

Just then, the man next to them shouted. When Xia You and the others turned to look at him, they saw him crawl into a pipe and wave to them.

Xia You and Xiao Zhi exchanged a glance and then quickly followed. Just as they entered the pipe, Giratina grazed the spot where they were standing and crashed into it.

The leading man kept running forward, leading them across the ground filled with strange light and through long pipes. Just as they were leaving the exit, Xia You felt his body suddenly sink, as if the gravity he had lost earlier had returned to him in that instant.

The sudden return of gravity nearly caused him to fall, but fortunately, his lower body was stable enough that he only swayed slightly.

Not only him, but also Ash and the others around him felt the same way. Ash and Dawn, who had long been used to the difference between light and heavy forces, were caught off guard by this sudden change. Their knees buckled and they fell straight to the ground!

Xia You reacted quickly, reaching out to grab Xiao Guang's arm and pulling her up from her limp state.

On his other side, as Xiao Zhi fell, he caught a fleeting glance at Xia You, who had abandoned him and reached out to pull Xiao Guang instead. His face was filled with resentment.

The moment Dawn was pulled up, Ash collapsed.

However, Ash is a tough guy; he got up again as soon as he fell.

"Thanks…"

Xiao Guang glanced at his wrist, which Xia You was holding, his ears turning bright red. He quickly looked into Xia You's eyes and whispered his thanks.

Xia You simply nodded and released her wrist.

"Be careful!" Before Xiao Zhi could complain to Xia You about his infatuation with a beautiful woman, the man's voice finally came, "We've left the area where the gravity field is weak. The gravity will become very unstable from now on, so be careful not to fall."

Xiao Zhi rubbed his knee and rolled his eyes at him: "You could have said it earlier next time."

After passing through the not-so-long pipe, although they could still hear Giratina's roar in the distance, Giratina did not notice them because of the numerous twisted gaps in the buildings, which gave the group a temporary respite.

The man glanced at Xiaozhi with amusement, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, this place isn't safe yet, and it's not the place to talk. Let's keep going."

Since they were no longer in such a hurry, Xia You had time to look around as the group ran further away.

His memory was fairly good, which was why he could see that these empty, distorted houses were somewhat similar to the small city they had been in when they first entered. He then realized that this inverted world was not a specific space, but a mirror image of the real world, only a bit more fantastical.

but……

Discovering this isn't a big deal.

With a smile to her heart, Xia You continued walking, following the group until they reached a corridor inside a building. Only when they found the surroundings completely silent did they stop.

Catching his breath, the man leaned against the wall and looked back at them.

"You weren't hurt, were you?"

Before Xiaozhi and the others could even speak, Shaymi, who was in Xiaoguang's arms, made a sound.

'It's already a miracle they weren't eaten!'

Upon hearing this voice, which was clearly not human, the man was taken aback at first, then looked directly at Shemi.

"Are you Shemi from back then?"

Who are you?

The man smiled: "I am Mu Xuan Gracelando, and I am currently researching this reversed world. I call myself—a genius scholar known only to those who truly understand!"

As he said this, he even bowed slightly, performing a very formal greeting, with a hint of self-satisfaction in his tone.

It has to be said that in this day and age, some people's actions can be offensive, like that aristocratic-like man in Baiyang Town, but at this moment, this person only makes people feel his humor.

only……

To boast about being a genius scholar is quite narcissistic...

Now that she was safe, Xia You took a closer look at the man and realized that he looked somewhat familiar.

But he was certain that he didn't know him before, and even his long name was completely unfamiliar to him.

After a moment's thought, a face appeared in his mind, and he suddenly realized that his face shape and hairstyle were eight or nine parts similar to Dr. Kongmu's!

Especially their hairstyles, they are almost exactly the same!

And they are all scholars and PhDs!

The biggest difference is that Dr. Kongmu is thinner and more delicate, while the man in front of him is more rugged and slovenly.

Could these two be related?

Or are they just monkey-like men, which is why they are so similar?

Although they felt a little embarrassed by the man, Xiao Zhi and the others, including Xia You, introduced themselves.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Ash couldn't wait to ask the question that had been bothering him.

"What exactly do you mean by the reversed world?"

The man named Mu Xuan did not answer Xiao Zhi's question immediately, but instead keenly grasped the information in his words.

"You just said 'you all'? What do you mean by that? Isn't this the first time you've heard the term 'reverse world'?"

Xiao Zhi nodded, then pointed at Xia You and said without any guile, "Of course, when we first came in, Brother Xia You said that this place is some kind of reversed world."

Hearing him say that, Mu Xuan looked at Xia You in surprise.

"You actually know about this place!?"

Faced with his surprised gaze, Xia You shook her head.

"I've only heard of it, I don't know much about it."

Mu Xuanzai carefully examined Xia You, but the young man's expression didn't change at all, so he couldn't see anything.

"That's quite impressive. Many people haven't even heard of this place. The fact that you know about it shows that you have a deep understanding of certain things! Have you also studied the Reverse Space?"

Xia You never expected that beneath such a slovenly exterior lay such a meticulous heart.

As expected of a scholar...

Xia You remained calm and composed, and said without batting an eye, "I heard Dr. Mustard Orchid mention some of it when I passed through Shenhe Town before, so I remembered it."

He has never had the habit of boasting in front of outsiders, nor does he want to attract the attention of others, let alone in front of strangers. Therefore, adhering to the principle of keeping a low profile, he never takes the initiative to claim anything, including now.

Ok……

Besides, Dr. Mustard Seed did meet with me and even admired me, so I figured this man named Mu Xuan probably wouldn't ask her for any confirmation.

"So it's Professor Mustard..." Sure enough, after hearing Xia You's words, Mu Xuan actually nodded with admiration. "She's the most amazing person in our Sinnoh region, and she's my idol too. She really knows a lot!"

He stopped dwelling on these things and instead explained to the group, "This is another world closely connected to the real world. Gravity changes in different places and can even be distorted. If I had to describe it, it would be a dilapidated world that breaks the rules!"

It must be said that this man's summary is quite accurate, befitting a scholar who studies this area.

The Reverse World, simply put, is the opposite of the Pokémon world; it's a world with chaotic gravity.

The terrain and buildings here are mirror images, resembling the destroyed world in the game, and have a corresponding relationship with the materials in the real world, meaning they influence each other.

The Latina, the Giratina we just saw, is the ruler of this world and the only Pokémon here.

At this moment, walking to the window and looking at the distorted world outside, Mu Xuan continued, "The two worlds are so close, yet they never intersect. Only Giratina has the ability to travel between the real world and the inverted world. The reason you are here... is because of Giratina!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Shemi's voice came through.

"That's it! It's going to eat Shaymi!"

With just one sentence, everyone's attention was once again focused on it.

Faced with Xie Mi's confident words, Mu Xuan frowned in confusion.

"Eat you? Why would that be?"

Sensing his surprise, Shemi didn't want to continue the conversation, but simply tilted her head back and said, "I want to go to the flower field!"

Do you want to go back to your original world?

“Of course!” Ash nodded. “We were on our way to the flower field when we were inexplicably brought here!”

"I see. Well, we can't be so leisurely then!" Mu Xuan nodded, then pulled out a phone-like device from his backpack, operated it a few times, and nodded slightly. "Luckily, we still have time. Anyway, let's go!"

As if he had no time to explain, he turned and ran into the distance.

Seeing that Xiao Zhi and the others were still in a daze, standing there without moving, Xia You had already followed behind Mu Xuan, and his voice rang in their ears.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and catch up!"

Chapter 1024 It's its turn to take the stage (300 million words achieved)

Led by Mu Xuan, the group traversed a complex and winding path, heading deeper into the world.

Following behind, Xia You took out her phone and glanced at it.
