Greatest Pokémon Trainer

Another parallel universe.

Relatively speaking, it's a future space-time "without the transmigrator Fang Yuan."

After the battle of the Guardian Gods, various nations divided up the Legends Resources.

Following this, the prophecy of ZI Wan came true, and Earth first experienced natural disasters caused by the arrival of Groudon and Kyogre.

The two Pokémon fought over Earth's Natural Energy, accumulating the power of Primal Reversion, inciting a massive battle that stirred the entire Pacific Ocean area.

The battle lasted a very long time, and humans were powerless against the two immensely strong Legendary Pokémon.

Even some of the Legendary Pokémon that had come into contact with humans before, like the Kapu family, did not dare provoke these two and stayed on their islands, leaving their chosen Island Kings feeling helpless.

It wasn't that they didn't want to ask the Island Protectors to save the world; it was that they were unwilling to leave their seclusion!!

According to the Kapus, if Mega Rayquaza did not appear, they just needed to wait for the two to finish fighting.

In the end, the two Super Ancient Pokémon fought for ten days and nights, from their ordinary form to their Primal Reversion form.

On the eleventh day, Mega Rayquaza finally appeared and quelled the battle.

Although the two Super Ancient Pokémon did not intentionally target humans, the droughts and floods caused by their battle still led to many natural disasters.

The countries around the Pacific suffered heavy economic losses.

Many areas' natural environments were permanently changed due to this great battle.

For example, Tokyo, Japan, became a city of rain, with the sea level gradually moving upwards, and the rain did not stop for a long time.

If this continued for several more years, it might become a vast ocean.

Fortunately, this climate could be suppressed by the strength of Ordinary Elves, such as with the Sunny Day Move, but even Guardian God Level Spirits could not completely eliminate the impact of the battle, only suppress it.

So, the loss was still tremendous.

This original disaster made humans fully aware of how terrifying Legendary Pokémon could be. They might not attack humans actively, but even some inadvertent actions could be a disaster for humankind.

Against such a backdrop, countries once again stepped up their efforts to train Trainers. They might not be able to fight against Legendary Pokémon, but at least, with more Trainers and Pokémon, the impact of legends disasters could be reduced.

For instance, the continuous rainfall in Tokyo could be suppressed by moves like the Sunny Day from Plant system and Fire Type Spirits. Without the suppression of the Pokémon, Tokyo would be submerged even faster.

The third wave of Trainer growth in the future space-time, supported by the Alliance's resource policies, had fully commenced.

Later, just as people were tense about when the next bothersome Legendary Pokémon like Groudon and Kyogre might appear, still in the Pacific region, an uninvited guest appeared on a Mystery Island.

This was a Human-shaped spirit, entirely silver-white in color with a purple tail and abdomen. The extraneural bundle stretching from the center of its back extended to the back of its neck, and in height, it was roughly equivalent to a human, looking utterly cold and ruthless.

It proclaimed itself as Mewtwo.

......

"Celebi, I've finally found you."

In the future space-time, in the Forest of the Mysterious Woods of Paulownia of the Hua Nation.

Xie Qingyi, the Champion of the Hua Nation in the future space-time, looked at the green creature in front of her that resembled a Pokémon, her heart filled with bitterness.

Using clues from numerous relics, she had finally found the Pokémon that could potentially change Hua Nation's current predicament.

The God of The Forest Celebi with the power to travel through time... Now, everything depended on it.

The Pokémon known as Mewtwo had occupied Mystery Island, jointly developed by Hua Nation and Japan, taking 600,000 local inhabitants hostage and declaring its intention to "liberate the Pokémon."

The Pokémon Alliance had no idea what to make of this creature, which possessed not only unbelievable strength but also intelligence rivaling that of humans, capable of modifying various technologies into black tech that surpassed Earth's current level...

With strength comparable to that of Legendary Pokémon, combined with technological power and a Spirit army that defected to it, even the Pokémon Alliance had no solutions against Mewtwo.

To assess the situation, the top Trainers and Pokémon from both nations who landed on the island were nearly all suppressed by Mewtwo right upon encounter.

Even a top-ranked power like Master Kong Hai from China's Twelve Branches could only become a hostage of Mewtwo after landing on the island.

Moreover, what the Pokémon Alliance and both nations' associations found most unacceptable was not the spirit's strengths and abilities, but its ideology.

There were Pokémon stronger than Mewtwo, for sure. Groudon and Kyogre, which had triggered the disaster, were definitely stronger than Mewtwo, but their threat to humans was not considered very significant.

If humans could not provoke them, they could hide.

But Mewtwo was aggressively assertive.

Mewtwo, upon witnessing the conflicts between humans, wild Pokémon, and domesticated Pokémon, grew extremely disdainful of humans and the Pokémon subjugated by them and even planned to establish a nation solely for Pokémon, freeing them from human control.

The Pokémon Alliance naturally could not allow Mewtwo to act recklessly.

Mewtwo also knew that everything could not be achieved overnight, so it planned to start its plan from the two countries behind this island.

It sent out invitations, inviting trainers from Hua Nation and Japan to participate in the "Mewtwo Game" it organized.

If a trainer could defeat the Pokémon under its command in this game, it would give up the island and release the hostages.

On the other hand, if it won and humans lost, it would require trainers of the two countries to set an example by releasing their Pokémon so that Pokémon could lead humans.

After Mewtwo issued the advanced notice, the term "Mewtwo Game" swept across the globe in an instant. Some people were watching the excitement of Hua Nation and Japan, while others were fearful, dreading such events happening to them.

The secret island occupied by Mewtwo was a location developed jointly by Hua Nation and Japan. The residents on the island were mostly from the two countries, and Mewtwo specifically designated trainers from these two nations to participate, leaving the Pokémon Alliance powerless.

Because there were several hundred thousand people on the island, these individuals could all be considered Mewtwo's hostages, and they couldn't be saved by normal means.

Therefore, to rescue the hostages, Hua Nation and Japan could only pretend to agree to participate in the Mewtwo Game temporarily. The content of the game involved fighters from both countries battling the Pokémon under Mewtwo's command. Given such circumstances, there was still hope for victory.

The upper echelons of both countries could only pray that Mewtwo would keep its promise, and for that, they began to mobilize their strongest forces.

In addition to this, Mewtwo also issued a global forecast.

It sought to find a Pokémon named Dream and decide who the true original was in a showdown.

To most people, this forecast was incomprehensible; however, most of Hua Nation's high-ranking officials were aware of Dream's existence.

Dream was a very mysterious Pokémon, dwelling in the Mount Everest Secret Realm, and was a Legendary Pokémon whose strength possibly matched Mewtwo's. Fortuitously, a blind girl from Hua Nation named He Xiaomai was chosen by Dream to become the Guardian of the World Tree.

Although the specific conflict between Mewtwo and Dream was unknown, if Dream could take action against Mewtwo, it might directly save hundreds of thousands of hostages.

Moreover, even if Mewtwo abandoned the island, as long as it sought to liberate Pokémon, it would inevitably lead most Pokémon and humans into conflict, resulting in a "Second Demonic Beast War" between humans and Pokémon. The Pokémon Alliance could not withstand such consequences at any cost.

Therefore, if Dream could be enlisted to conclusively deal with Mewtwo, that would be the best outcome.

Regrettably, the World Tree had died long before the battle of the Guardian Gods due to an accident, which led to insufficient energy. Dream, which lived in symbiosis with the tree, did not escape this fate.

Though He Xiaomai, the World Tree Guardian and Wave-guide Messenger, wished to sacrifice her own Wave Guide to save Dream and the World Tree, she failed because her power was too weak. Before Dream's death, it managed to save her.

After that, there was no more Dream or World Tree, only He Xiaomai left to guard the tree's hollow shell alone.

So, relying on Dream was not a viable option.

However, others suggested alternative methods.

By harnessing Celebi's power to travel through time, one could go back to the past, find Dream before the accident, and seek its help to confront Mewtwo.

Celebi proved difficult to find, but this task fell to Hua Nation's Champion, Xie Qingyi.

Fortuitously, Xie Qingyi managed to find Celebi.

"Celebi, please let me go back to the past."

"I wish to use your power to save the World Tree, save the World Tree Dreams, and fight against Mewtwo. Please help me." Future Xie Qingyi opened her "Soul" and allowed Celebi to observe her.

She sincerely hoped to gain Celebi's assistance.

As long as she could go back in time, she might not only save Dream but also avert the disaster brought by Mewtwo, changing so much...

Beneath the foliage, Celebi blinked as if it could See Through Xie Qingyi's "Soul." Time travel and changing the past were often taboo in most film and television works, but Celebi didn't mind. In fact, it was willing to use its abilities to change some things, as long as it was someone worthy of its help asking.

After watching future Xie Qingyi for a long while, Celebi nodded slightly.

…

Meanwhile, in this timeline.

Fang Yuan got the news from Dream that Celebi had traveled to this space-time and was incredibly excited. Whatever the Destructive Bug was, it was thrown to the back of his mind.

He had been idle for too long and couldn't continue to stay in, researching. First, he had to find Celebi, satisfy his craving for time-space travel, and deal with the rest later.

"No problem, leave the task of finding Celebi to us. Eevee, let's pack up and get ready to leave. Victini, you come too."

"Bwoo!!" "Bimi!!"
