[Life History: kingdom calendar Year 149, Larvesta was born.]
[kingdom calendar Year 150, through hard training, Larvesta evolved into Volcarona.]
Draconis stroked the antennae on top of Volcarona's head while looking at its data.
As expected, Volcarona had learned many more moves after this evolution. His Volcarona had extraordinary talent and insight when it came to controlling Fire type energy.
It was a pity that they were currently thousands of years in the past, where there wasn't much room for Volcarona to show its prowess. Furthermore, in the entire Unova region, they were currently the strongest.
If it were modern times, Draconis would definitely have taken Volcarona, Dragonite, and the others to participate in the League Conference to have friendly matches with those Trainers.
The three pairs of wings on Volcarona's back fluttered gently. It squinted its eyes happily, enjoying Draconis's touch. A steady stream of warm air was released from Volcarona's body, making it feel like a small stove.
One could imagine how comfortable it would be to have a Volcarona when the cold winter came with heavy snow.
However... looking at the Volcarona in front of him, which was enjoying his touch like a cat, Draconis couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile.
Even though it had evolved, it still acted like a child in front of him!
Seeing Volcarona enjoying Draconis's touch all to itself, the nearby Dragonite suddenly became dissatisfied. Its fat, large, and increasingly plump body forcibly squeezed its way over.
The newly evolved Volcarona was unwilling to back down at all, pressing its head against Dragonite's.
"Awoo..."
"Mera!"
Sparks seemed to be flying around the two Pokémon.
Draconis: "..."
The surrounding Pokémon like Vulpix, Oshawott, and Pansage seemed to be infected by this lively atmosphere. They gathered around happily, jumping and hopping around Dragonite and Draconis.
Seeing this scene, Draconis sighed with a mix of annoyance and happiness. Raising so many Pokémon but being unable to look after them all at once was truly a headache!
Not far away, Kyurem nodded slightly as He watched the scene.
He seemed to have already seen the future of the Unova region—not just Draconis, but every person and every Pokémon on this land living and getting along together, just like Draconis and Dragonite.
This was Draconis's true ideal, and also the truth that this world would eventually move towards.
And He would help Draconis, witnessing the arrival of that era together with him.
—
Nimbasa City, Pokémon School.
The current principal here, Griffin, suddenly received a mission.
It was said that His Majesty planned to hold a Pokémon battle competition at the school, and the eight students who ultimately won would be entrusted with important responsibilities by His Majesty.
Upon receiving the mission, Griffin immediately passed the news down, and the Scholars and teachers then relayed it to the students.
Before long, all the students in the Pokémon School had learned of the news.
"Hey, have you heard? His Majesty Draconis plans to select eight of us to complete a very important task!"
"What? His Majesty Draconis said it himself?"
"Of course, Principal Griffin told us!"
Upon hearing this, the eyes of many students in the school immediately flickered with a passionate light.
His Majesty Draconis was the person they admired most. Being chosen by His Majesty Draconis to work for him was something everyone here dreamed of.
"No matter what, I will definitely not miss this opportunity!"
"Melanie, I won't lose to you again this time!" Alex clenched his fists, and a raging fire seemed to burn in his eyes—a fire called fighting spirit!
A strange light also flickered in Melanie's eyes. She didn't respond to Alex, but instead looked at the Lopunny beside her.
Lopunny seemed to feel its Trainer's heart and nodded gently in response.
The person and Pokémon were in perfect sync, understanding each other's feelings with just a look.
—They would definitely not let this opportunity slip by either!
For a time, undercurrents surged within the Pokémon School, and all the students were on high alert.
Regarding this selection match, Draconis did not personally go to the scene to watch.
The steel plant had produced a large number of rails, and the steam train powered by a steam engine had also been manufactured.
He spent nearly a week working with everyone in the territory to map out the rail-laying routes between various cities, and then handed them over to the railway workers for laying.
Currently, human and material resources were limited, and the steam train was only in the trial operation stage. Draconis planned to open two routes first to observe.
His primary targets were Opelucid City and Black City, which were closest to Nimbasa City.
Next, stations would be established in these two places. Once the railway laying was complete, the steam train could officially be put into operation.
By then, the development speed of the Unova region would undergo earth-shaking changes.
During these seven days, the Gym Leader selection match at the Pokémon School finally came to an end.
Inside the castle, Alfred handed over a list of names.
Draconis reached out and took it, seeing that it contained detailed information on each student.
[Alex: Male, 15 years old, Pokémon: Emboar, Darumaka, Magby]
[Melanie: Female, 14 years old, Pokémon: Lopunny, Azurill, Skitty]
[Fallen: Male, 17 years old, Pokémon: Flaaffy, Eevee, Elekid]
[Alan: Male, 16 years old, Pokémon: Excadrill, Krokorok]
[Linda: Female, 15 years old, Pokémon: Scolipede, Crobat]
[Ariel: Female, 18 years old, Pokémon: Roserade, Leavanny, Lilligant]
[Christine: Female, 17 years old, Pokémon: Psyduck, Buizel, Swanna]
[Johnny: Male, 17 years old, Pokémon: Golem, Geodude]
"Your Majesty, these eight are the students who ultimately won the competition," Alfred said.
Draconis nodded. Because of the theory he had mentioned before about Pokémon of the same type being more compatible and easier to develop within a team, most of these children focused on Pokémon of the same type when choosing their companions.
However, this was just as well.
"Fire, Normal, Electric, Ground, Bug, Grass, Water, and Rock types. It just so happens to meet the conditions for running eight Gyms of different types," Draconis thought to himself.
"I want to meet them," Draconis said.
"As you command, Your Majesty. I will go and make arrangements for you right away," Alfred replied.
He turned around and went to gather the selected children to meet His Majesty at the castle.
