Not Being a Trainer This Time

Chapter 956: Chapter 458: Game Day, Wishing Star (Part 3)

The Pokemon on the World Tree can use it as a center to explore the labyrinth.

However, so far, he has not seen Palkia, and even if he did, Palkia might not be willing to help.

Moreover, Giratina seems to have some incompatibility with those two Legendary Pokemon.

Forget it, there’s no use thinking about this.

Naoki turned his head and put the matter out of his mind.

While the Pokemon were playing games over there, he opened the Pokemon Forum, entered the Hoenn section, and started surfing.

The netizens in the Hoenn Region were still in heated discussions about the recent appearances of Team Aqua and Team Magma.

Naoki noticed that some insiders revealed that the Champion of the Hoenn League and the Gym Leaders were already prepared to respond.

Steven had already set out to stop the plans of those two organizations.

The Gym Leader of the Sootopolis Gym, Wallace, had also left the gym and was missing. Some Trainers went to challenge him, only to find the Sootopolis Gym was closed.

"Wallace..."

Naoki’s mind conjured the image of Steven’s good friend.

Considering their relationship, Steven must have told him everything.

Plus, since Wallace seemed to have some connection with the Draconid people, if Naoki’s guess was correct, he must have gone with Steven to deal with Groudon and Kyogre.

The situation in the Hoenn Region was becoming increasingly tense, yet amidst all this, Naoki saw an unexpected trending topic on the forum.

[The Millennial Comet is coming! Head to the Pokemon Amusement Park to observe this week-long spectacle together!]

Millennial Comet?

Upon seeing this term, a Pokemon’s name immediately appeared in Naoki’s mind.

Jirachi!

Is the time for the Jirachi movie fast approaching?

Hoenn Region, southwest of Mt. Chimney, directly north of Lavaridge Town.

On this land known as Forina, a purple-haired man in a white tailcoat was searching for something.

"I will, I will prove myself!" Butler said with determination, memories of past events surfacing in his mind.

Back then, he was still a scientist with Team Magma.

During his tenure with Team Magma, to complete Maxie’s mission, Butler developed a device aiming to use the Groudon shell fossil remnants he had obtained by chance to revive Groudon.

However, when he tried to activate the device in front of the Team Magma officials to begin the revival, the device exploded due to insufficient energy, leading to the experiment’s failure.

The higher-ups in Team Magma ridiculed him and kicked him out of the team.

Butler harbored resentment against those people, unwilling to accept the reality, swearing vengeance to revitalize Groudon through the fossil remnants!

But to achieve revival, he first needed to find a stable energy source for the device.

Thus, Butler came to Forina.

Because a legend was told in the area.

Forina was said to house a Pokemon called the Wishing Star.

This Pokemon awakens once every thousand years, capable of absorbing energy from the Millennial Comet, nourishing Forina with this energy, making it more prosperous and beautiful.

As long as he finds that Pokemon and utilizes its power, he can surely maintain the device’s operation and resurrect the Super Ancient Pokemon Groudon!

When that time comes, he will certainly take the revived Groudon to confront those who once mocked him, proving that he was right!

At that moment, a secret cave appeared ahead of him.

Butler’s eyes lit up, and he quickly ran inside the cave, whose ceiling connected to an outer opening.

A beam of sunlight shone through that opening.

Within that beam, a peculiar crystalline structure lay quietly.
