This may be the opportunity for Sylveon to become a "battle legend".
"I have to consult Tapu Kokoro." Lu Ye thought, "Let Senbu take a few sips of Melomele Island... At worst, I can help it deal with the Ultra Beast."
I'm not sure about defeating Ultra Necrozma... but I should have no problem dealing with the Ghoul King.
"By the way, Mr. Lu."
Dr. Kukui smiled and said, "There will be a full-strength celebration in Lili Town tonight. Do you want to participate?"
"All-out celebration?"
"It's a grand event for trainers to fight against each other." Dr. Kukui's eyes flickered. "The kings of the islands, including the Royal Masked Man, will all fight..."
"According to rumors, Tapu Kokoro will also attend the celebration in person!" Dr. Kukui said with a smile.
Lu Ye: “…”
Royal Masked Man... Isn't that you
Some trainers are Pokémon doctors on the surface, but are actually masked wrestlers behind the scenes.
The fact that Tapu Mingming would show up did make Teacher Lu somewhat interested.
Lu Ye nodded and said, "I'll consider it."
Alola's Battle Festival
Isn't this beating the baby
Chapter 782: Ultimate Aura and Liliae
Tomorrow is the first day of the Pokémon School.
The full-scale celebration will be held at the celebration square in Lili Town tonight.
Teacher Lu returned to his detached villa on the cliff of Karawei Bay in the east and invited Zhulan to accompany him to the town celebration.
Zhulan closed the book and accepted it happily: "Coincidentally, I also have some questions about mythology and would like to ask the elders in the town."
"Is it related to the island god?" In fact, compared with the myths of other regions, Mr. Lu is not very familiar with the Alola mythology.
After all, the plot of Sun and Moon involves the multiverse, other dimensions, and alien beasts. It is more like an Ultraman plot than a Pokémon myth.
Zhulan sat on the sofa, crossing her legs under her black wide-leg pants, her hands on her chin, her gray eyes flashing slightly.
"Strictly speaking, it's related to Cosmic Pokémon."
Zhulan glanced at the slightly surprised Teacher Lu and explained, "I found in ancient books that long before the arrival of the Island God, Alola already had records of the Sun God, the Moon God, and the God of Glory."
"These gods brought light to the Alola Island and gave the island a unique aura... Perhaps this aura is the origin of the Z moves." Zhulan said calmly.
Lu Ye: “…”
"Don't look at me like that." Zhulan lowered her head and smiled, "It's just a guess."
Teacher Lu silently gave a thumbs up to Meng Mengda.
Sirona is a mythologist, and this happens to be related to her professional field, so the inference is roughly close.
The four Alola islands are shrouded in a unique aura. This aura comes from the "Great God of Light" Ultimate Necrozma, and the island gods are just his agents.
Therefore, Dr. Kukui's theory that Pokémon absorb the aura of the island to gain Z energy is not wrong.
The so-called 'Z energy' is officially called the "ultimate power", which is similar to the "great power" derived from the Infinite.
Since the "ultimate power" comes from the universe, its essence is not a waveguide, but an ultimate aura. The essence of the ultimate aura is the "light" emitted by Necrozma.
In the critical moment of the anime "Sun and Moon", Xiaozhi and his friends gathered the "light" of all Alola, restored Necrozma's sanity, transformed into the "God of Light" Ultimate Necrozma, and dispelled the darkness of Alola.
Afterwards, Ultra Necrozma returned to the Kingdom of Light (×) and Ultra Metropolis (√)
Teacher Lu was in a delicate mood.
This setting is too familiar, alien beasts, light, the Ultimate Defense Force... a definite tribute to Ultraman.
Even Ultimate Necrozma has the shadow of Shining Tiga.
All I can say is that in the Pokémon world, you can not only be a trainer, but you can even transform into light.
There is only one way to awaken Necrozma... that is to make soup out of it! (crossed out)
Although Alola's plot is very children's-oriented, Mr. Lu is even more looking forward to it.
Just ask yourself, which boy doesn’t want to transform into light
Although the Ultra Beasts are very dangerous, Mr. Lu was able to mobilize the "Ultra Ancient Giant" Regichikas to come to the rescue.
You even have the opportunity to ask for help from Zygarde and command Zygarde Gundam Form against the Ghoul King!
"It's on fire." Lu Ye's eyes flickered.
"Speaking of which, about that battle festival." Zhu Lan stared at Lu Ye with her grey eyes and said hesitantly, "You wouldn't... sign up for the competition, right?"
"Zhulan, you know me."
Lu Ye said seriously: "I am always invited by others, and I never play baby cup."
Zhulan lowered her head and sighed, then smiled helplessly and said:
"Let's go. This is also a valuable learning opportunity for Alola's trainers."
…
Melemele Island, Lili Town.
The blue night is as cool as water, and the palm trees are swaying.
The waves of the eastern bay washed the beach, and the bonfire in the celebration square burned vigorously.
The drums were beating "dong dong" and the Alola-formed Garagaras were dancing around the bonfire, twirling blue flame bone sticks like jugglers waving torches.
The fruits of the trees next to the barn were piled up into a small hill. Pokémon such as the Shaggy Dog, Rock Dog, and Mud Donkey were feasting on the fruits.
The children gathered around the old man Long and laughed. The old man Long smiled kindly and gently, slowly lowered his neck, and nibbled the grass.
The two champions stood outside the town, looking out over it, their eyes reflecting the orange bonfire.
"Old Dragon is a very kind Pokémon who loves playing with children." Zhulan said thoughtfully, "When friendly children encounter bad people or encounter misfortune, they will become very angry."
Lu Ye looked up at the sky.
So should I stay away from the old man dragon
The towering coconut trees under the night sky are none other than the necks of the Alola form of the Palm Tree.
The Alola form of the Coconut Tree is 11 meters tall, taller than Onix when it stands upright, and even has dragon attributes... There are more strange dragon Pokémon.
The two champions changed into lighter clothing, Alola shirts and sky blue shirts, and wore brown sunglasses.
As I stopped to observe the local customs and practices, I heard a hearty laugh from behind, and was greeted:
"Alola!"
Lu Ye turned around and saw Dr. Kukui grinning and waving from afar, followed by a girl in a white sun hat.
"Alola!" is the greeting of Alola. It comes from the Hawaiian greeting 'Aloha', good morning, good night, goodbye... It is suitable for almost any occasion. 'Aloha' is also a synonym for the state of Hawaii.
"Alola~" Lu Ye smiled, "The battle should not have started yet."
"Haha, of course not. Grandpa Hala has to give a speech before the battle."
Dr. Kukui introduced with a smile: "This is my assistant, her name is Liliae. These two are the champion of Luye and the champion of Sirona. Liliae, you should know something about this."
Lilia took off her white sun hat. Her blonde hair and blue eyes smiled shyly. Her long golden hair swayed slightly. She placed her hands in front of her and bowed.
"Champion Lu Ye, Champion Sirona, it's an honor to meet you two."
"Hello, Liliae." Zhulan said with a faint smile.
Lu Ye nodded slightly and pondered for a moment.
Liliae is a key character in the Sun and Moon plot, and so far, she seems to have not yet encountered Nebula.
It is worth mentioning that Lillie is afraid of Pokémon because of the shadow left by her mother Lusamine. Hatching Ice Vulpix by herself is the turning point for Lillie's transformation.
Although she is afraid of Pokémon, Lillie does a great job as an assistant, thanks to her good upbringing. The Aether Foundation owns more than half of Alola's wealth, and Lillie is the daughter of the Aether Foundation. It is no exaggeration to say that she is a big lady.
"By the way, Liliae." Dr. Kukui said, "Starting tomorrow, Mr. Lu will serve as the principal of the Pokémon School and teach you the basic battle knowledge of trainers."
"You haven't captured any Pokémon yet, but just learn first. It will come in handy one day." Dr. Kukui said with a smile.
"Hmm..." Liliae raised her head with sparkling green eyes and said seriously, "Champion Lu Ye, I will study hard."
"Just call me Mr. Lu." Lu Ye smiled and said, "I know your brother, Gladion. He is a very talented trainer. You may not be inferior to him."
"Eh?" Liliae exclaimed softly.
In this way, the champion mentioned in my brother’s letter should be Mr. Lu…
The group walked towards the celebration square, and Dr. Kukui introduced the origin of the celebration.
"There are no leagues or gyms in Alola. Instead, there is a ritual called the "Island Tour". Challengers need to travel to four islands to challenge dominant Pokémon and team leaders who have passed the tour. The All-Out Celebration in Lili Town is one of the trials of Melemele Island."
Professor Kukui smiled and said, "It is said that the guardian deity Tapu Kokoro is very curious and will watch the celebration and show himself to the challengers he favors."
Lu Ye: "What if I want to meet Kapu Mingming..."
"Ah, then we probably need to celebrate with all our strength to achieve victory." Dr. Kukui nodded.
Lu Ye rubbed his chin.
The aura of a Melemele Island alone is probably not enough for Sylveon to break through.
I'm afraid I'll have to meet the four island gods and challenge the "Island Pilgrimage".
Mr. Lu has no awareness at all.
Everyone else came for the Z pure crystal, but Teacher Lu came for the entire Melemele Island!
But it is a win-win situation for both sides to have the Battle Legends step in to resolve the potential risks in Alola.
The bonfire was burning, and in the center of the celebration square was a wooden fighting arena divided by white lines. Teacher Lu was very worried about the quality of the venue.
The crowd gradually gathered in the center of the square. Dr. Kukui crossed his arms and smiled:
"The celebration is about to begin!"
After the mourning and ancestor worship dance ended, a white-haired old man in a yellow shirt came on stage and delivered a harvest speech.
"This is the king of Melemele Island, Hara-senpai," Kukui said. "Alola doesn't have a king, but has an island king instead."
"The guy next to him who looks almost exactly like him is Senior Hala's grandson, named Haou." Kukui folded his arms and smiled, "He is also a challenger for the All-Power Festival."
Lu Ye: “…”
Alola's baby cup... I'm embarrassed to go on stage.
However... Lu Ye looked at the island master of Hala on the ring.
The strength of the King of the Island is roughly equivalent to that of the King of the Alliance, so challenging the Island Master still has a certain value.
"During this All-Out Celebration, trainers who are favored by the Island God will receive an extra Z-Grand Combat Crystal!"
Hara laughed and said, "Don't worry about winning or losing, just show off your style and get the attention of the island god!"
"I declare that the full-scale celebration has begun!!"
The first battle begins, with Haou fighting against the shirtless red-haired boy Kachi.
The townspeople were enthusiastic and talked a lot.
"Kachi passed the island trial, mastered Fire Z, and is expected to become a team leader!"
"Hawu is the grandson of the island master of Hala. This is a battle between two strong ones!"
Zhulan went to visit the town's blind grandmother to ask about the legend of the Sun and Moon Altar.
Teacher Lu watched the baby showdown, Feather Owl VS Exploding Flame Turtle Beast, with great interest.
The strength of an Alola team leader is equivalent to that of a gym leader, which is very rare in the Alola region.
Having said that... Alola, which is in the Novice Village difficulty, has various opportunities such as aura and self-created Z, which can improve the strength of the team after daily life. No wonder Alola is known as Xiaozhi's "second home".
The flames blazed with a loud bang, causing the townspeople to cheer. Liliae looked on in dismay.
"Don't you like Pokémon battles?" Lu Ye asked with his head down.
