"To be able to command nine Darkrai, and to have one himself, I'm so jealous."
"No, no, no! It's not just that, it was actually an Eevee that defeated the Temporal and Spatial dragons, not the Darkrai. I was there at the scene!!"
"Another lunatic. It was the Darkrai that held off the Temporal and Spatial dragons, which was confirmed by the Trainers on site and officially. It sounds credible. Eevee? Are you crazy or am I crazy?"
"Darkrai did indeed resist the Temporal and Spatial dragons, but it was indeed Eevee that defeated them! They're not the same thing, believe me!"
"I don't know whether to laugh or cry. The people of Alamos Town have it tough, having gone through such things, it's normal for their spirits to be abnormal! You guys look at this (screenshot), who in their right mind would keep shouting about Eevee one-shotting the Temporal and Spatial dragons, sigh, damned Galaxy Team, they've driven so many people mad."
The truth is often not believed, and so the Alamos Town incident drew to a temporary close.
The announcement did not reveal the Reverse World, Super Demon God, or the matter of Eevee, focusing everyone's attention squarely on the Baiyang Town's Darkrai.
After all, in the original story, Baiyang Town's Darkrai is credited as the greatest hero in averting the disaster and it deserves the honor.
At the same time, Hirona published a paper on the species Darkrai, hoping that more Trainers would come to recognize and understand this Pokemon.
All this was Fang Yuan's intention.
Just like with the Disaster Beasts, the Nightmare God should not be discriminated against. Even if it cannot control its own power, with adequate recognition and understanding, it can ultimately turn out to be no different from other Pokemon.
Once the details were published, and with the Baron Lickilicky of Alamos Town's prestigious promotion, the townspeople came to understand that the Baiyang Town's Darkrai had always been silently protecting them, looking after Alamos Town; it was just that they had misunderstood Darkrai.
A massive statue of Darkrai was erected in Alamos Town, and Darkrai became the town's Guardian God.
Alamos Town was the first to have a statue of the Nightmare God as its guardian deity.
"Poor Eevee, no one believes in your strength..."
Fang Yuan couldn't help but feel a fresh pang of sorrow for Eevee. Ha, from birth to its final fate, it seems bound to be underestimated no matter which world it's in.
The fact that Eevee suppressed the Temporal and Spatial dragons... Even if there were videos, people would never believe it, they'd think it was fake. Even if it was officially announced by the Alliance, there still might not be anyone willing to believe it; it would rather harm the reputation of the Alliance and embroil Fang Yuan in controversy.
After all, even the Trainers who saw it firsthand began by doubting whether they had been subjected to an Illusion Technique...
This truth was just too hard for people to accept.
"Is that all there is to it?" Hirona asked Fang Yuan over a video call.
"Yeah, after all, how could anyone believe an Eevee could be so powerful? Unless it could one-shot your champions' Trump Card Elf and prove itself, then people might believe it... Huh? Championship? Champion? One-shot?"
Beep beep beep...
Hirona quickly cut off the conversation with Fang Yuan, possibly because her phone died.
Fang Yuan: "…"
"Damn it, hanging up on me, I'll remember this grudge."
...
...
As the Sinnoh Region bustled with excitement,
In the far-off Kalos Region,
A rookie Trainer named Ailan was investigating an ancient site.
He had once been the assistant to the well-known Kalos Researcher Dr. Blattano, jointly conducting research on Mega Evolution.
However, thirsty to unravel more secrets of Mega Evolution, Ailan received special permission from Dr. Blattano to venture out on a journey with his Charmander, visiting various Mega Evolution-related ruins.
The ruins he had come across were possible sites for an "Electragon Evolution Stone," which he came specifically to find.
However,
"Roar~~"
Arriving here with his partner, the Fire Dinosaur, Ailan silently discovered that the Super Stone had already been taken by someone else.
"Who are you?"
"Excuse me, is this what you're looking for?" Flare Team's Boss Fladeli, holding a Super Stone and appearing out of nowhere, slowly approached Ailan with his Spirit Pyroar.
"This is... the Electragon Super Stone?!" Ailan's gaze sharpened, that was it.
"It seems I guessed right. However, if you want it, earn it through battle." Fladeli smiled faintly.
A moment later,
The atmosphere was incredibly tense between the Fire Dinosaur and the Pyroar.
Meanwhile,
In the skies above, inside a colossal helicopter, Kalos Fire King Patchil took off his glasses, curiously observing the young man being crushed by Fladeli below.
"Fladeli, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Patchil was filled with curiosity. Picking on a young boy was not Fladeli's style.
Maybe… did Fladeli see potential in the boy and wish to groom him to join the Flare Team?
Patchil's guess wasn't wrong.
As Dr. Blattano's assistant, Ailan was highly skilled in Mega Evolution research, a genius young Researcher.
Besides, recently with the Fire Dinosaur, he had also shown exceptional Trainer talent.
Moreover, this Fire Dinosaur was meticulously nurtured by Dr. Blattano, predicting a limitless future for Ailan.
As Blattano's good friend, Fladeli had had his eye on Ailan for some time and hoped to recruit him to work for the Flare Team.
