On the way to Seafoam City, Gui Ling started looking things up on his phone.
He had heard Fu Ye talk about the celebration before.
A long time ago, a Trainer and a Pokémon traveled together, experiencing all sorts of adventures, and finally arrived at this place.
After that, they lived happily ever after.
To honor their fighting spirit and unwavering friendship, the Trainer gave the Pokémon a small sapling.
Soon after, that sapling grew stronger day by day, eventually becoming the tallest tree in Seafoam City, and was called the Tree of Covenant.
This was a celebration for giving gifts to Pokémon, and Gui Ling quickly thought of gifts for everyone.
Upon arriving in Seafoam City, residents greeted the Yveltal flying in the sky with enthusiasm.
“Look! It’s Yveltal!”
“Hello, Death God! And his Trainer!”
Yveltal, however, was a bit confused, looking at the enthusiastic people below and asking in puzzlement.
“………… (Why aren’t they afraid of me anymore?)”
“They must have relaxed once they knew you had no ill intentions, after all, you were flying over Seafoam City for a while last time.”
This reminded Yveltal of the Pokémon that didn't flee when he acknowledged Gui Ling earlier.
………………
“………… (So what are you trying to do, leaving us here?)”
In the waters of Seafoam City, Gui Ling released everyone and decided to go prepare gifts himself, but this displeased Yveltal.
“Of course, not knowing what the other person is giving makes the gift even more surprising, doesn’t it?”
“………… (What if you encounter danger alone?)”
“I’m not as useless as you think, and I won’t die~”
“………… (Take me with you; you don’t need to summon me, just let me stay in my Poké Ball.)”
“Huh? This…”
“………… (I’ll sleep, I won’t watch you prepare anything.)”
“Alright, thank you, Yveltal.”
Gui Ling had Gardevoir watch over everyone, and he took Yveltal out to prepare gifts.
Gardevoir had Kyogre completely hidden in the sea, while the rest of them played by the shore.
Meanwhile, Gui Ling arrived at the commercial street, first asking the boss for dozens of sea fish, then running to a clothing store, a doll store, a bookstore, a toy store…
After having all the bosses customize the items and send them to the blacksmith shop, Gui Ling’s last stop was also the blacksmith shop.
He chose the most suitable ore for forging a blade and began to forge a tang katana.
It was already dusk after forging the blade, and Gui Ling also started grilling fish, and also went to the Pokémon Center to check his wounds.
After all this, he returned to the coast.
“Everyone! I’m done preparing, let’s go.”
………………
“Now, let’s begin!”
Fu Ye stood under the Tree of Covenant, ready to start the celebration, but a strong wind sucked away all the gifts.
Ash’s Frubbit noticed something amiss, climbed up the Tree of Covenant, and launched a Water Pulse, directly knocking down the Team Rockets hidden in the tree.
“What is going on!?”
“Since you asked what is going on~”
“Then I shall mercifully answer you~”
“To prevent the world from being destroyed~”
“To protect the peace of the world~”
“The evil that penetrates love and truth~”
“The cute and charming villain characters~”
“Jessie!”
“James!”
“Team Rockets duo traversing the galaxy!”
“White hole, a white tomorrow awaits us!”
“That’s right, Meowth!”
“So! Rai Say!”
“Team Rockets, it’s you again!”
“Give me back my portrait!”
“You’re so noisy~ All these things are ours now! We’ll snatch all the valuable items in one go, and then we’ll capture more Pokémon!”
“That’s right, Meowth! Alright! Power on!”
Although Team Rockets’ machines sometimes malfunctioned, their effects were unexpectedly good; even this vacuum cleaner had a considerable wind force.
Just as Ash and the others were about to stop Team Rockets, two figures, one blue and one purple, rushed past them at extreme speed, and then two slashes of light cut the vacuum cleaner into four pieces.
“Damn it! How dare you do that… Eh? Isn’t this…”
Jessie was startled when she saw Ceruledge and Greninja.
“Are these the annoying brat’s Pokémon, Meowth?!”
As Team Rockets panicked, Yveltal flew over, while Gengar and the others safely landed on the ground using Confusion, surrounding Team Rockets.
“Really! Why do you always ruin our plans every time!”
“Aren’t you the ones ruining things? You should know that I didn’t leave any of the previous Pokémon Hunters alive.”
Gui Ling spoke the most dangerous words in the calmest tone, which sent a chill down Team Rockets’ spines.
“I think we shouldn’t call him the annoying brat anymore, Meowth…”
“Let’s call him the terrifying brat…”
“Quickly retreat!”
“So! Rai Say!”
But Gui Ling snapped his fingers, and the next second, in the waters of Seafoam City, Kyogre’s massive body leaped from the water and flew over.
A terrifying sense of oppression washed over them, scaring Team Rockets so much that they didn’t dare to move.
“How can we not have a standard ending? Shadow Sneak!”
“Pikachu, 100,000 Volts!”
“Pika! Chu!!!”
“Gengar!”
“Dang Dang!”
“Gardevoir!”
Boom!
“What a terrible feeling!!!”
“So! Rai Say!”
Fu Ye ran over excitedly, looking at Kyogre with a happy expression, then looked at Gui Ling and gave him a thumbs up, praising him repeatedly.
“It really is Kyogre! The ocean overlord Kyogre! Gui Ling, you truly amaze this old man!”
“Thank you too, Fu Ye, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known about that place.”
“Hahaha! You’ve also come as promised to participate in the celebration! Then please help this old man liven up the atmosphere.”
“It’s my honor.”
Gui Ling looked at his family, exchanged glances with them, and then touched his Key Stone.
“Come on, everyone! Mega Evolution!”
All of Gui Ling’s Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution underwent Mega Evolution, and Ceruledge underwent Darkening.
A flash of colorful light later, the Mega Evolution family appeared.
All the Trainers looked at the Mega Evolved Pokémon with great excitement.
There were even two Legendary Pokémon present, instantly igniting the atmosphere on the field.
“Then, everyone! Let the celebration begin!”
“To allow the friendship between Trainers and Pokémon to reach a higher level, let’s begin the celebration under this Tree of Covenant! Everyone, please count down together!”
“Five! Four! Three! Two! One!”
As Fu Ye pulled the central switch, the colorful lights above the entire Tree of Covenant lit up, like a light tower.
Then, the Trainers gave their prepared gifts to their Pokémon, and Gui Ling also pulled a cart of things and started distributing them to everyone.
For Yveltal, it was a roasted fish feast.
Gui Ling personally cooked it with the best seasonings, and although it looked ordinary, it was a very precious gift to Yveltal.
For Gengar, it was a vampire prank costume, specifically for scaring others.
Gengar tried it on Diancie, and the effect was surprisingly good, but then he was beaten by Gardevoir…
For Banette, it was everyone’s dolls.
Gui Ling even specially asked the boss to sew one of himself.
As soon as Banette saw it, he immediately jumped into the pile of dolls, hugging his own doll and rubbing against it constantly.
For Gardevoir, it was a pure gold bracelet with “Pokémon Angel” engraved on it.
Gardevoir’s face turned red like a teapot when she received it.
For Diancie, it was a pink princess dress.
Diancie loved it very much, and after putting it on, the Little Princess’s noble aura immediately emerged, and the Trainers nearby also praised her repeatedly.
For Greninja, it was a tang katana forged by Gui Ling himself.
Gui Ling held the blade with both hands and stood in front of Greninja, presenting the blade to Greninja, which also proved that Greninja’s swordsmanship ability had surpassed Gui Ling’s.
For Noivern, it was apple pie.
Gui Ling still remembered that Noivern loved eating apples the most.
Trevenant and Servine received peace buckles made of jade, as they had been together for over half a year before being caught by Gui Ling, making them the best of friends.
For Ceruledge and Darkrai, it was many comic books.
Although Ceruledge and Darkrai had no interest in reading, Gui Ling discovered during his research with Professor Platane that the two often used their abilities to steal comic books from the neighbor’s children to read.
Gui Ling had disciplined them for this, but he remembered the incident.
For Kyogre, it was a storybook.
Kyogre often liked to listen to Gui Ling tell stories or play music while sleeping, but Gui Ling had almost run out of stories he remembered, so he bought this storybook.
Although Gui Ling didn't know what Gible liked, he knew that Gible was definitely a food lover.
He often saw Gible rummaging through his bag for food, and if he hadn’t found out early, the Pokémon Encyclopedia would have been eaten.
So this time, Gui Ling bought a roasted chicken specifically for Gible.
Gible immediately pounced on it when he saw it, directly stuffing the entire chicken into his mouth.
“Thanks for the gifts, big boss, extra chapter today.”
