Legendary Pokémon are often called "Pokémon of myth and legend." You can also think of them as the most important Pokémon in the stories of the world.
In the games, Legendary Pokémon are very strong and very rare. Some people worship them as gods or messengers. Some are seen as the creators of things in the world. Some caused big disasters a long time ago.
Mythical Pokémon and Ultra Beasts were also once called Legendary Pokémon.
We will not talk about Ultra Beasts for now. We do not know if they are still called legends. But Ultra Beasts used to have a good reputation, and they are generally very strong.
Mythical Pokémon are also sometimes put in the same group as Legendary Pokémon.
In the games, you cannot find most Mythical Pokémon during a normal game. Instead, you get them as Mystery Gifts during special events. Or, you get a special item that starts a new story.
In the Pokémon world, people call Pokémon "Mythical Pokémon" if they are hard to find and there is not much information about them.
For example, there is the Lugia from the movie. There is also the Dratini from before a fisherman caught it. There are the Pokémon like the Legendary Beasts in the Scarlet Book, and the ones like the Swords of Justice in the Violet Book.
This was the most important moment for Dratini.
The Manaphy that Jirachi talked about is also a Mythical Pokémon.
Most Mythical Pokémon have special abilities. Celebi can travel through time. Jirachi can grant wishes. Victini brings victory in battle.
Manaphy is the same. Manaphy was born on the cold floor of the sea. It was born with a special power. It can connect its heart and mind with any other Pokémon.
Also, in the games, Manaphy is the only Mythical Pokémon that can breed with Ditto. The Pokémon that comes from the egg is Phione.
"Jirachi, that is different."
Damian looked a bit confused. Manaphy had ridden on Kyogre before. This was not just a lie from Manaphy, because it happened in a movie.
Kyogre is the origin of the sea. It is the "King of the Deep Sea." It probably has a good relationship with Manaphy.
Manaphy can connect with the hearts of others. This means Manaphy is very charming. For Pokémon in the sea, Manaphy is probably everyone's favorite.
Manaphy is very cute. Because of that, Kyogre probably let Manaphy ride on its back.
But Jirachi was not Manaphy.
"Oh, is it not allowed?" Jirachi asked. Its voice was low, and it looked very sad.
"It is not impossible. How about you ask Kyogre yourself?"
Damian could not say no when Jirachi looked so sad. Its cuteness was too strong.
Damian respected what his Pokémon thought. Kyogre was a proud Pokémon. It did not let many people ride it.
Right now, Kyogre only let Damian sit on its back.
Kyogre thought it was very important. It had defeated the Mega Rayquaza Shiny! It was the King of the Sea!
"Is it okay?" Jirachi's eyes started to shine.
"Come out, Kyogre."
Damian took out a dark red Cherish Ball. He had changed Kyogre's Poké Ball.
The Cherish Ball is very rare and valuable. The dark red color looks very good.
Silph Co. had not made a Master Ball yet. If they had, Damian would use that.
Damian was very rich. He wanted his Pokémon to be comfortable. He always gave them the best things.
The Cherish Ball opened. Kyogre appeared in the air. Its body had a blue light. It looked very elegant.
Kyogre did not use its Drizzle ability. It looked around and saw no enemies.
Kyogre looked at Damian. it was confused. It was sleeping before Damian called it out.
"Wow~ It really is Kyogre!"
Jirachi looked at Kyogre with stars in its eyes. It floated in front of Kyogre. It sounded very happy.
Kyogre looked at the little star-head. It knew Jirachi existed, but they did not know each other well.
Kyogre gave a small nod. It acted calm and stayed a bit distant.
"I 'saw' it back then, Kyogre! The Kyogre that defeated Rayquaza! You are so strong!"
Jirachi was full of admiration. It was a stone during the battle in LaRousse City, but it could still feel the power.
That is why it wanted to ride the big fish. This fish had beaten Rayquaza!
Kyogre felt very good when it heard this. it looked at Jirachi with a smile.
It thought this star-head was very nice!
"Kyogre, Jirachi just woke up. Can you carry it for a flight around the area?"
Damian saw they were getting along. He smiled at Kyogre.
Kyogre thought about this. It liked the star-head, but it was still a proud Pokémon.
It only wanted Damian to sit on its head.
"Can you, Kyogre? I admire you the most for being able to defeat Rayquaza!"
Jirachi acted very cute. It mentioned the battle again.
"Woo~"
Kyogre was happy to hear more praise. It made a long sound. It told Jirachi to sit down.
"Chuckle~"
Jirachi happily floated onto Kyogre's head. It was smiling very hard.
"Wow wow wow!!"
Jirachi shouted with excitement. Kyogre moved its huge fins. It flew toward the sea and dove into the water.
Kyogre went back to the bottom of the sea. We do not know if Jirachi can breathe underwater.
But Kyogre was there, so everything would be fine.
"This pokemon seems to be very smart as well."
The wind from the sea was soft. Caitlin's blonde hair moved in the wind. She looked very pretty.
Caitlin thought Jirachi might be acting smart to get what it wanted. Kyogre was doing exactly what Jirachi asked.
"Jirachi is a very simple Pokémon... probably?"
Damian thought about it. He felt Jirachi's words were very effective on Kyogre.
He remembered that Jirachi was usually very innocent. It should not have any secret plans.
But it called Kyogre "big fishy" when talking to Damian. When it talked to Kyogre, it used the name "Kyogre." That was a bit strange.
Damian wondered if someone was teaching Jirachi how to talk like that.
"Does Damian have any wishes for Jirachi?" Lillie asked.
"I do have one. Lillie, Caitlin, what about you two?"
Damian laughed. He had a small wish. But he knew Jirachi's power had limits. He did not ask for too much.
"Um... I do have a small wish..."
Lillie's face turned red. She looked away from Damian.
Her voice was very quiet. Damian could barely hear her.
"I do have one."
Caitlin said she had a wish too. She did not look at Damian directly.
"Oh? What kind of wish do you want to make?" Damian was curious.
"It's a girl's secret. Even Damian can't know."
Caitlin smiled and said no.
"Alright." Damian did not ask again.
It was normal for girls to have secrets. He would not be surprised if Caitlin wanted a different body shape.
Caitlin and Cynthia were very similar. They were both perfect and beautiful.
Their chests were a bit small, just like Lillie's.
But Damian thought small was also cute. He did not mind.
Ten minutes later, Kyogre came back with Jirachi.
"Wow!! That was great! Thank you, invincible Kyogre~!"
Jirachi floated to Damian and sat on his shoulder. It was very excited.
Kyogre was very happy. It liked being called invincible.
Then, Kyogre went back into its Cherish Ball.
"Are you satisfied?" Damian touched Jirachi's face and smiled.
"Chuckle It felt great, Damian The seafloor is super beautiful. There are many pretty corals and schools of fish."
Jirachi was very happy. It only wakes up for seven days every thousand years. This was its first time seeing the sea.
It was good that it praised Kyogre so much.
"As long as you like it. Let's go, I'll take you home." Damian was happy because Jirachi was happy.
"Mm-hmm~ Okay."
Jirachi smiled. It was very cute.
They went back to Caitlin's villa. Jirachi looked at everything with curiosity.
Lillie followed Jirachi and explained what things were.
Jirachi had been at the villa before, but it was a stone then. Now it was different.
In the kitchen, Lillie explained the rice cooker again. Then she looked at Damian and Caitlin on the sofa.
"Jirachi, Jirachi."
"Hmm? What's wrong, Lillie?"
Jirachi was playing with a spatula. It looked at Lillie.
"Can you help me realize a small wish? Just one is enough."
Lillie held up one finger.
She was worried. Her mother, Lusamine, had called her. Lillie had to go back to Alola in a few days.
But she and Damian were not "closer" yet!
She wanted to tell Damian how she felt. But Caitlin was always there.
Caitlin was always next to Damian. Lillie never had a chance to be alone with him.
It was very annoying.
Lillie felt that Caitlin also liked Damian. Caitlin was a rival!
Lillie felt she had to do something before she went back to Alola. She wanted to do it for herself and for her friend Selene.
"Eh? A wish? Um... okay. What wish do you have, Lillie?" Jirachi agreed.
"Is it really okay?" Lillie was hopeful.
"It's okay. I like you, Lillie. But I don't have much energy now. If it is a hard wish, can you wait two days? I need more energy from the stars."
Jirachi was being honest. Its power had limits.
It had just woken up. It needed more time to get energy from the comet.
"It's okay, my wish is very simple!"
Lillie spoke quietly. She was happy.
"Then tell me. I can help you."
Jirachi was confident.
"That... it's just..."
Lillie became shy. She touched her hair.
"?" Jirachi was confused.
"That, can you make Damian..."
"Damian?"
"Can you make Damian fall in love with me?"
Lillie's face was very red. It was hard for her to say those words.
But she forced herself to say it.
"Eh?"
Jirachi looked confused. It bit its finger.
"Fall... in love..."
Jirachi did not understand. It had never felt love before. Those words were a mystery to the little Pokémon.
