Chapter 449: One of the Effects of the Dragon Stone
"Roar~"
A rough yet immature cry sounded in his ear.
Will looked up blankly.
What knocked him over was actually a Tyrunt.
This little guy, only 0.8 meters tall, was sitting on Will's stomach right now, sticking out a thick and rough tongue constantly licking Will's face.
"Eh?"
Drasna, noticing the commotion here, showed a doubtful look.
"Wow, so cute! This is an ancient Pokémon, right?"
Cynthia's eyes lit up.
Looking at the sturdy and adorable Tyrunt, she felt she was about to be melted by cuteness.
"Mm, do you still remember, I have a Tyrantrum; this is his child, just born less than a month ago."
Drasna nodded, walking over to hug Tyrunt over.
"Really cute; by the way, Sister, your Tyrantrum wasn't resurrected from a fossil, right?"
Cynthia reached out and stroked Tyrunt's nose.
The rough feel was like rock.
The whole little dragon struggled constantly in Drasna's arms, two broad feet kicking non-stop, a pair of big eyes staring at Will all the time.
"Mm, caught in a cave in the northwest of the Kalos region."
Drasna hugged Tyrunt, looking up at Will who stood up, very puzzled,
"Strange, what's wrong with this child; since being born, first time seeing him like a Pokémon so much."
Through the force coming from her arm.
She could clearly feel Tyrunt was very agitated and excited now.
As if Tyrunt thought Will was his biological mother whom he had never met.
"Um, Sister's strength is very great."
Cynthia looked at Drasna's face not red, breathing not panting appearance, somewhat surprised.
She specifically studied this when going to school in the Alola region.
Ancient Pokémon have many differences from modern Pokémon.
One point among them.
Is regarding the cubs.
When modern Pokémon are just hatched, they are quite weak, almost without combat power, maybe even would be chased and beaten by ordinary geese.
But ancient Pokémon cubs are different.
How harsh was the survival environment in ancient times; in order to adapt to the times and survive better,
These ancient Pokémon already possessed a certain combat power from the moment they were born.
Plus the Tyrunt species was the king Pokémon a hundred million years ago, equivalent to the T-Rex in the dinosaur era of the Blue Planet.
Their cubs are innately stronger than other ancient Pokémon.
So.
Even though Tyrunt is only one month old.
His strength is quite great, especially the bite force of his jaw and the kicking force of his hind limbs are extremely astonishing.
It can be seen from the fact that he could knock the unprepared Will over on the ground.
Will is a Steel-type Pokémon weighing over two hundred catties (100+ kg/220+ lbs).
This Tyrunt being able to knock him down.
How great the strength is almost needs no more words.
However, Drasna could steadily hug Tyrunt in her arms, making him unable to struggle out.
This strength is even more terrifying.
Can be called a humanoid female Machamp!
"Hehe, it's okay; after all, Tyrantrum was also very naughty when he was little, gradually trained up the strength while taking care of him."
Drasna smiled gently in embarrassment.
Then frowned again.
This Tyrunt's personality is very stubborn; looks like if not letting him act coquettishly with Lucario properly, he probably won't give up.
"It's fine, Miss Drasna, didn't pay attention just now, it's okay now."
Will got up and patted his butt.
He saw Drasna's trouble, signaling the other party could let go of Tyrunt.
"Mm."
Drasna nodded, releasing her arms.
She wasn't worried Will would be knocked over again, thrown off his feet by Tyrunt.
Anyway, he is also a strong one who could 1v2 and take down her two Pokémon; not to the point of not even being able to subdue a baby.
This time.
Will indeed steadily caught the rushing Tyrunt in his arms.
"The strength is really not small."
Will felt the impact brought by Tyrunt, couldn't help praising a sentence.
Worthy of being a Pokémon described by the Pokédex as [Sometimes just intending to play around can also seriously injure the trainer].
"Your Lucario is very special; remember when we first met, my Pokémon liked him very much."
Drasna pinched her chin with two fingers, squinty eyes opening slightly.
"Yes, Lucario is very popular; on the way here many wild Pokémon came to play with him. He said it's because Aura Power affects his temperament, making him easier to be trusted by Pokémon."
Cynthia didn't feel strange.
She held her face with one hand, quietly watching Will hugging Tyrunt's big head.
Tyrunt kept drilling in Will's arms; the thick and short little tail behind him wagged almost about to take off.
"Is that so?"
Drasna felt it wasn't that simple.
Tyrunt's attitude couldn't be summarized simply by "trust" anymore.
It was clearly "like".
Even Will himself felt it was weird.
Why does this child like him so much?
He could perceive the Aura in Tyrunt's heart.
No.
Even didn't need to feel Tyrunt's Aura.
This child's liking for him was obviously written on his face and behavior.
Then.
Will first thought of Drasna's other Pokémon.
Then thought of the two little bros who had betrayed Druddigon and joined his side.
Finally recalling those Dragon Pokémon encountered over these three years.
"...No, there's something fishy!"
Will stroked Tyrunt's big head with one hand.
Gradually his gaze moved to his personal panel.
[God Stone (Dragon Stone)]
'Holy crap!'
Will's eyes widened, suddenly realizing.
He had forgotten about this thing.
Mainly because this thing really has no presence; since Kyurem gave it to him, this thing was like a Switch gathering dust in the warehouse. Except for feeling novel and fiddling with it for two days at first, never touched it again later.
And Will, because of having Aura Power, was already relatively popular with Pokémon himself.
Usually when Pokémon liked him.
He also subconsciously associated it with his Aura Power.
Thus ignoring the existence of this stone.
Now he understood.
The specific effects of the Dragon Stone are hard to say.
But maxing out the affinity with Dragon-type Pokémon, this point should be certain.
Thinking of this, Will.
Took the Dragon Stone out of the panel, holding it in his hand.
Sure enough.
Tyrunt's gaze was instantly attracted by the Dragon Stone, seeming to even plan to lick it.
"So that's it."
Will put the God Stone back, reached out and stroked Tyrunt's chin.
This little thing is very cute.
But the Rock and Dragon type configuration is not particularly good.
Among the six types it's weak to, four of them are popular types like Ground, Fighting, Ice, and Dragon; either there are many Pokémon having this type, or almost everyone possesses moves of corresponding types.
"Cynthia, how long do you plan to stay here?"
Drasna withdrew her gaze, looking at Cynthia.
"Setting off tomorrow."
Cynthia smiled slightly, saying eagerly.
"Eh?"
"I want to go see that Eternal Garden; maybe Xerneas is there."
Cynthia explained a sentence.
Just after learning the story of the God of Life and God of Destruction from Drasna's mouth.
Blonde-kun decided to go look for traces of Xerneas to try.
As for Yveltal.
His name and power in the legends of the Kalos region are truly not very pleasant to hear; Cynthia also didn't dare to approach rashly, lest accidentally causing big trouble for the Kalos region.
And in Drasna's mouth.
Cynthia heard the name of a place—Eternal Garden.
Eternal Garden, also known as the Nebel Plateau.
It was a paradise like a fairyland within the Eternal Empire three thousand years ago; far from human habitation, now disappeared on the League map.
The Kalos League is deliberately reducing the presence of this place, seemingly planning to let the world forget here.
Drasna could know this place.
Is because she is the Dragon Elite Four of the Kalos League.
She told Cynthia.
Xerneas likes to stay in tranquil forests where almost no humans can be seen; three thousand years ago he also appeared on the Nebel Plateau.
Maybe it's possible he chose to sleep there until now.
So Cynthia planned to go and take a look.
And.
Blonde-kun believes.
There must be some unknown secrets hidden in this Eternal Garden.
She wanted to go see for herself.
"Mm, then wish you a safe journey. By the way, you must be careful and careful when you go there."
Drasna nodded gently, earnestly entrusting.
"What's wrong?"
"The reason why the Kalos League deliberately hides and protects the Nebel Plateau is because the attitude of the Pokémon there towards humans is very bad, they hate humans very much; you appearing there must be mentally prepared to be attacked at all times."
"Is that so, I understand."
Cynthia kept Drasna's words in her heart.
Next.
Drasna pulled Cynthia to talk about some stories regarding the Nebel Plateau; this inevitably had to talk about the mechanical kingdom Azoth.
Cynthia listened with her eyes shining brightly.
Whether it's the Azoth Kingdom or the Nebel Plateau, those are places not marked on the League map.
The more these deliberately hidden places are.
Cynthia feels the more long history and secrets are hidden here.
As for Will.
He was leading Tyrunt like a little dog wandering around everywhere in the castle.
It was his first time seeing an ancient Pokémon like Tyrunt; inevitably he would be a bit more interested, playing with him for quite a while.
Next day.
Cynthia took Will to set off.
Tyrunt was extremely reluctant to part with Will, biting his tail; no matter how Drasna pulled him, he wouldn't let go, instead making Will's butt hurt from being pulled.
Finally under Tyrunt's pig-slaughtering cries and tearful gaze, the heartless Will still abandoned him in the end, choosing to fly far away with Blonde-kun.
The target this time.
Is the secret realm heavily surrounded by the extreme northern mountains of the Kalos region, the Eternal Garden - Nebel Plateau!
The hidden protected area of the Kalos region.
