The next day, early morning.
Nothing happened, last night was Christmas Eve.
Ash and his friends walked out of the Pokémon Center, and as soon as they came into the outside air, they suddenly felt a strange feeling in their hearts.
Especially not far away, the streets with sea water flowing between the alleys...
It seemed that it was no longer flowing, and even the air seemed to have solidified.
Even Xiaozhi noticed that the sea water on the street corridor... seemed to have dropped a lot, and there were still traces of moisture on the edge walls.
"Maybe it's here, the tide goes out in the morning...?"
Xiaogang analyzed casually.
But looking around, busy tourists or locals gradually began to gather... They must be overthinking.
As for today’s journey…
"Xiao Zhi, the three of us plan to go to the wilderness garden you mentioned. Maybe we can meet Latios today."
Xiaogang has already blended into Xiaoxia and Xiaolan's best friend group and said with a smile.
Legendary Pokémon are still very attractive to them.
"Ah, then let's go to that museum."
Ash bent down and looked at Pikachu on the ground.
"Pickup?"
After all, they had already walked around the garden yesterday, and Xiaozhi still wanted to visit some new attractions today.
Maybe when he goes to the museum today, he might meet another patron saint?
What Xiaozhi remembered was that there were two Pokémon sculptures on the stone pillars at the entrance to the Water City.
Although their shapes are similar, they are two different Pokémon.
Xiaogang: "..."
Hearing this, Xiaogang suddenly hesitated, as if following that side would have a greater chance of encountering legendary Pokémon...?
So everyone temporarily parted ways, and Xiaozhi took Pikachu and acted alone again.
"Huh? Where did Sister Bilan go?"
Xiao Lan looked over her shoulder in confusion and found that the Blue Variety Monster was missing.
But she quickly put it behind her.
There are still a few days left in their journey, and Bilan knows the way, and can turn into a Pidgey and fly back to the Pokémon Center at any time.
The blue Variety Monster can not only transform into humans, but also Pokémon.
Well, it really turned into a variety of monsters...
...
After a while, Xiaozhi, who left the team alone, came to what a few people called a museum.
The location is not difficult to find. It is in the very center of the city. No matter which main street it is, it will eventually converge towards the central museum.
This is an extremely large and majestic building, with a luxurious and classical arched wall window on the ceiling, which is fifty or sixty meters high.
On the surrounding walls, various strange words and patterns are hung and carved.
They are curved and completely different from modern characters, and the patterns are mostly abstract, making them difficult to identify.
In short, it is more like an ancient building with a long history that was directly converted into a modern museum.
It was early in the morning and there were not many tourists.
"Pica~!"
Pikachu jumped to the ground. The floor under his feet was as smooth as a mirror, and the bone fossils embedded underneath could be seen.
Put together, you can vaguely see the pattern of a fossil pterosaur.
Next to it, there is a scythe helmet, a fossil assemblage of spiny ammonite beasts.
These are the Pokémon in Dr. Oak's backyard. Even though only abstract skeleton fossils are left now, Ash is still very familiar with their shapes.
And the center of this museum.
"Is this the machine Xiaoxia and the others were talking about...?"
Xiaozhi looked around and raised his head.
In front of him are a series of dark gold metal supports, which together form a huge device like a Ferris wheel.
But there are no neatly arranged passenger cabins on it, but only a few egg-shaped devices that seem to allow people to enter.
Below, there are metal ravines with mysterious long lines.
Xiaozhi shook his head and sighed.
It really doesn't look like an ancient building... more like some kind of ancient weapon.
Xiaozhi even recalled the giant robot made by the Rocket trio...
...
"!"
At this time, Xiaozhi suddenly felt as if he was being watched by something, and couldn't help but shudder.
He turned his head and looked subconsciously at the source of the peek.
There were only a few tourists in the museum at the moment, and not far away, a figure on the edge of the wall looked very abrupt.
This is a girl that Xiaozhi has never seen before.
She has long brown-red hair, tied back into a slender ponytail.
Wearing a white hollow hairband on the top of her head, let the bangs on the front fall naturally.
The hair extending diagonally upward on both sides looks like a pair of small sharp horns.
Wearing a black maid's dress, the lace neckline is tied with a red ribbon, and the front of the dress below the waist is covered with a maid's white cloth.
Exquisite facial features, revealing a gentle smile.
A pair of big, watery eyes with orange pupils were staring straight at Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi: "?"
Who is this guy?
A maid who escaped from someone's house?
It looks like he should be a year or two older than me...
"Pickup?"
Pikachu seemed to sense something and couldn't help but run in the direction of the red-haired maid.
"Hey, wait for me, Pikachu!"
Seeing this, Xiaozhi could only catch up quickly.
"..."
When she saw a man and a mouse running towards her, the red-haired maid immediately turned around and ran away, with the slender ponytail on the back of her head flying in the air like a tail.
One after another, the two ran out of the museum...
...
...
The other end.
On the back side of the entire island of Odomare, there is a wild garden wilderness.
Xiaogang and the others climbed over the edge of the fence and entered smoothly. Sure enough, they saw a large flowerbed with flowers in full bloom not far away.
There were several chubby bugs flying around, and their bodies with alternate circular stripes looked like they were wearing black clothes.
There are curved antennae on its forehead, and a bright yellow light spot on its tail.
"A Pokémon I've never seen before..."
The three of them were stunned, and Xiao Lan skillfully took out his illustrated book.
"Tick, Electric Firefly, the Firefly Pokémon will light up its tail at night to communicate with its friends. It likes the sweet aroma of sweet fireflies."
"Tick. Sweet Fireflies, the firefly Pokémon, will emit its sweet fragrance to attract electric fireflies and complete the hunt."
Xiao Lan's illustrated book looks much more serious.
Not only these two kinds of fireflies, there are also many wild Pokémon living around. There are many Pokémon from the Johto area or Fangyuan area, which is a feast for the eyes.
Boom! !
Not long after the tour, there was a sudden violent explosion in the direction of the jungle not far away, attracting the attention of Xiaogang and the others.
The three of them looked at each other and naturally moved forward quickly.
They are here for adventure.
And as several people pushed aside the grass and trees, what appeared not far in front of them was the blond woman they met last night, who had now put on a black tights.
It's just that it's still broad daylight, so this outfit seems a bit strange.
In front of the blond woman was still the big spider with a colorful grimace - Alidos.
Opposite them before... was a blue and white Pokémon.
Suspended in mid-air, the entire body structure is like a streamlined jet aircraft. "Latios?!"
The three of them were shocked and instantly recognized this blue-and-white Pokémon. It was exactly what Ash showed them in the illustrated book yesterday!
Is this a fight?
