The light in the room was dim, no lights were turned on, and the purple-haired man was sitting on a long bench, with his hands on his knees.
His eyes were deep, the fluorescent light of the TV screen was projected on his bronze face, and the distorted TV commentary echoed in the quiet room.
"Player Chibana chooses to go Dynamax! The Super Giant Aluminum Steel Dragon appears!"
"Contestant Michinano has sent the Nightmare God Darkrai!"
Emperor Dan looked at the Darkrai, lowered his head, lowered the brim of his hat, clenched his hands into fists, and then released them again.
Can I defeat that Darkrai...
He raised his head, revealing his golden eyes, patted his bearded cheeks with both hands, stood up and walked out of the venue.
"Calm down, champ."
Emperor Dan’s eyes were firm:
"You still have your own battle to fight."
The red cloak was covered with advertisements, fluttering in the wind, and the back of Dan Emperor disappeared at the end of the dim corridor.
Outside Quanguan City, in the dark wilderness, in a pink car, Sonia made an anxious call.
No one answered at all. Sonia was so angry that she threw her phone in the passenger seat, and the screen displayed the words "Dandi not connected".
"It just happened to turn off the engine at this time!" Sonia thumped the steering wheel, "I don't know where Dan Emperor got lost!"
"Woo..." The caller in the back seat whined softly.
According to Dr. Mulan's information, the levels of extremely large particles in the Galar region are constantly soaring and will reach their peak tonight.
With a 'bang' sound, Sonia closed the car door, hugged the caller, and stood in the wilderness looking up at the night sky, feeling worried.
Dark clouds surged into the night sky, and dark red thunder and lightning crisscrossed the clouds. The sea of clouds surged, forming a black vortex that swallowed up the moon and starlight.
All of this is so similar to the "Dark Night" in the legend of Galar.
Three thousand years ago, Infinity appeared in the form of a black whirlpool, triggering the Gigantamax and Gigantamax. The giant Pokémon lost control and caused chaos, and Galar almost died. At the critical moment, thanks to the Sword Hero,
Joining hands with the Shield Hero, we defeated Wuji Taina.
And three thousand years later, Wuju Taina came again, causing abnormal giant Pokémon to appear in many places in Galar, and together with meteorites, they will arrive in the sky above Quanguan City today!
"President Roz must have asked Emperor Dan to deal with it alone..."
Sonia murmured to herself and raised a wry smile: "That's why the competition in Gongmen City was not suspended, and everything in Galar is as normal."
What exactly does it mean to be a champion.
Sonia doesn't understand, but maybe for Dan Emperor, the champion is the one who bears everything.
With Alchemy Emperor here, no one else needs to worry about anything.
Galar, together with President Roz, all have a fanatical confidence in Alchemy Emperor.
"If we can't even defeat the champion, then Galar will be doomed." People often say this.
Therefore, Emperor Dan will not ask for help from anyone, as if he is the 'strongest champion' first, and then himself.
Sonia remembers that as a child, Dandi would smile brightly when he won a battle.
At some point, that smile became a reassuring, signature smile of a champion.
That's his real smile... He often thinks about losing the game, but he wins again...
Sonia hugged the caller tightly, looking at the black vortex in the sky, recalling the latest research results, her eyes twinkling.
Emperor Dan, you don’t have to force yourself anymore... I will win this victory for you!
In the wilderness at night, the pink car continued to spit out black exhaust smoke.
"Please, please, light a fire." Sonia first clasped her palms together and then angrily slapped the steering wheel, "Light a fire!"
Buzz!
At the sound of the rumbling engine, Sonia's eyes lit up and she turned to look at the caller: "Look, it worked!"
"Woo~" the caller barked with his tongue. I can't explain this reason because I am just a caller barker.
"Okay, target, Weimei Forest, looking for help from the brave!"
Sonia stepped on the accelerator, and the car flew off the ground and galloped off the ground in the wilderness.
"Come on!!"
…
Quanguan City, station.
On the platform, a police officer held a Poké Ball and planned to take back his Burning Centipede.
The passengers looked up at the night sky and said curiously:
"Is that black vortex some astronomical phenomenon?"
"I don't know, maybe it's caused by some powerful Pokémon."
"It's too bad to be so close to us."
When the police officer heard this, he laughed and said: "There is a Dan Emperor Champion in Galar, so dangerous Pokémon can't get in!"
The passengers nodded in agreement.
At the same time, a little light appeared in the vortex, and a beam of red light was thrown to the Burning Centipede on the platform.
The police officer pressed the Poké Ball and unexpectedly found that the red light could not be recovered, and his eyes widened in surprise.
The flaming centipede was bathed in red light, growing in size, destroying the platform's signal lights, hanging on wires, chirping manically, and igniting golden fire all over its body!
The passengers didn't react for a moment. They looked up at the nearly ten-meter-high super giant flame centipede, their pupils shrank, and panic boiled over in an instant.
The super giant flame centipede burning with golden flames occupied the train track, spraying raging flames and exploding black smoke with a 'bang'!
A fire-breathing dragon fluttered in the night sky, with a purple-haired man riding on its back.
Emperor Dan looked away and frowned slightly:
"There are also rioting giant Pokémon here..."
"Please, Charizard." Emperor Dan held the neck of Charizard and said, "Use Air Slash!"
"Roar!!" The fire-breathing dragon flapped its wings and swung out two sharp air blades, staggering and striking at the abdomen of the super giant flame centipede.
Boom!
Amidst a series of explosions, Dan Emperor and Charizard flew over the heads of the passengers and flew towards the top of the Arena Tower, the highest point in Quanguan City.
Emperor Dan's golden eyes were piercing.
We must get to the high ground... and defeat the source of it all!
The super giant flame centipede fell to the ground and became unconscious, gradually shrinking in size and returning to its original appearance.
The police officer stepped forward tremblingly, took off the brim of his hat, and looked at the figure in the night sky.
Emperor Dan turned his head, showed a reassuring smile, and said loudly:
"Please rest assured! I will solve it as soon as possible!"
The police officers immediately saluted, and the passengers sighed and waved in unison.
"What... why don't you come earlier? I was so scared that my hair was messed up."
A man with a shield-shaped hairstyle and a red suit muttered.
"Sildy, you should maintain proper etiquette towards a champion."
The man in a blue suit and sword-shaped hair said flatly:
"Besides, we came here specially to recreate the feats of our ancestors... Maybe we will work with the champion in the future."
"When we defeat Dark Night, it's hard to say who the champion will be." Sildy said with a smile.
"We have been waiting for a long time for today and even recovered the relics of our ancestors."
It doesn't matter who the ancestors are, what's important is that they have to occupy these two treasures.
Sood's eyes were calm and he lowered his head and looked back at his backpack.
The zipper of the backpack was not completely closed, exposing the wooden hilt of the sword.
Huangtian paid off. Although he couldn't get it himself, he could still steal it from the altar by using some tricks.
But... can this dull wooden sword really defeat the legendary Pokémon?
Sood shook his head, looked at the highest point of Quanguan City, and said:
"Let us, with the help of the power of the relics of our ancestors, defeat the dark night!"
…
Quanguan City, Airport.
Xiaozhi walked out of the airport lobby, shouldering Pikachu and looking left and right.
Immediately, he took out his cell phone Rotom and talked to Dr. Kukui on the screen:
"Doctor, I have arrived in the Galar region!"
"Well, how did it feel to watch the match between Teacher Lu and Chibana live?" Kukui crossed his arms and smiled.
"There was a little accident..." Gu
Xiaozhi scratched his cheek and said with a smile: "The plane was delayed due to weather. I just arrived in Quanguan City, and then I have to transfer to Gongmen City."
"That's it." Kukui scratched his head and said, "Their game is almost over...you can only watch the replay."
"Eh!?"
"Small question, haha." Kukui laughed, "I haven't asked Rotom yet, how does it feel in the mobile phone form?"
Xiaozhi's cell phone automatically replied and sounded an energetic voice:
"Beep beep...very satisfied, Lotto!"
Kukui rubbed his chin: "I'm still thinking that you still need an adaptation period to change from the illustrated form... It seems that it is no longer necessary."
"I suggest, Xiaozhi, that you stay in Quanguan City tonight, and then contact Teacher Lu tomorrow and ask him to take you on a tour of Galar."
Kukui said: "Then, remember to come back early, the Alola Conference will start soon!"
"I know, Doctor." Xiaozhi said with a smile.
"Well, that's it, Alola~"
After hanging up the phone, Xiaozhi looked around and muttered: "We have to find the elf center first..."
boom!!
A huge explosion occurred in the direction of the city, and flames shot into the sky.
Xiaozhi looked at the huge Pokémon in the distance, was slightly startled, and took out his phone: "That is..."
"Beep beep... The super giant form of the Burning Centipede is said to release thermal radiation that will disrupt the airflow, Lotto!"
"Gigantamax, but why does it appear here?"
The next moment, Xiaozhi suddenly raised his head and recognized the fire-breathing dragon under the night sky with his amazing vision.
Dan Emperor rode on the back of the fire-breathing dragon, with a stern look on his face, and flew towards the tallest building in Quanguan City!
"Champion of the Alchemy Emperor!"
Xiaozhi looked overjoyed. If he met the Alchemy Champion, he might be able to challenge him on the spot!
"When it comes to flying, it's this guy..."
Xiaozhi fumbled around and threw the Poké Ball, "Please, Sonic Dragon!"
Sa!
"You can catch up, Sonic Dragon." Xiaozhi leaned on Sonic Dragon's back, "Just follow him!"
Sonic Dragon nodded slightly, flapped its broad wings, and pursued Alchemy Emperor's fire-breathing dragon in the distance.
A huge black vortex looms under the night, and the darkness gradually swallows up the entire sky.
A dazzling red light flashed across the sky.
A small meteorite is falling towards Quanguan City, and its landing point is the top of the arena tower!
…
Galar region, Weimei Forest.
It takes at least two hours to drive from Quanguan City.
Sonia drove fast, got a lot of tickets, and arrived here in an hour.
"Based on the inscription deciphered by Teacher Lu."
Sonia went deep into the Weimei Forest and murmured to herself: "The two brave men live in the deepest part of the Weimei Forest..."
Careful not to disturb the dormant Pokémon along the way, Sonia used a flashlight and headed deeper into the thick fog.
Even though she remembered the landmarks, Sonia still lost her way, but when she saw the call coming, Wang jumped out of her arms and ran deep into the fog.
"Wait for me!" Sonia shouted softly and walked into the thick fog.
Her vision suddenly opened up, and Sonia saw a shimmering, beautiful altar, and was lost for a moment.
"It turns out...this is the true meaning of Weimei Forest."
According to ancient records, the tokens of the sword and shield warrior are placed around the altar.
But Sonia lingered for a long time, finding nothing, and slumped her shoulders in frustration.
In the end... Dan Emperor has to fight alone again...
"Woof!" The caller barked suddenly.
"What?" Sonia turned around and saw heavy fog approaching from all directions, and couldn't help but close her eyes.
A loud and mysterious roar came from her ears, and Sonia nervously opened her eyes, slightly startled.
In front of her, there was a red and blue Pokémon, two Pokémon she had never seen before.
One of them has drooping blue mane, white scars on his body, and long braids connected to his ears.
The other head has mainly red mane, a small bunch of curly hair on the top of the head, and obvious scars on the face.
Suddenly, Sonia realized something and whispered:
"You two are... legendary brave men?"
"That is a title imposed on us by humans." Cang Xiang's voice was neutral and clear.
Zangmarante's voice was even richer: "We just did what we should do."
Sonia was vaguely exposed to the truth of the legend and swallowed her saliva nervously.
The ones who save Galar are neither human heroes nor the royal children of Galar, but two legendary Pokémon!
"I know, asking you like this is very presumptuous and abrupt..."
Sonia gritted her teeth and said: "It's just that the dark night is coming again, and Galar's power alone cannot resist it. If you can, I beg you two..."
"We are no longer brave." Cang Xiang interrupted Sonia's words.
Sonia was startled: "Huh?"
Zangmarante's eyes fell on the altar: "Human beings stole our guardian objects through deceit and greed. This is also our fault."
"Since the sword and shield were acquired by humans, it is natural that they should defeat Dark Night." Cang Xiang turned around coldly, "Your Excellency, please come back."
"But, only you can use the power of sword and shield!"
Sonia said: "I am a Galar mythologist. According to my research, only when the legendary warriors meet the sword and shield will they release their true power and evolve into a new form!"
Cang Xiang and Zangmarante stopped and looked at each other, flickering slightly.
Indeed, when equipped with a sword and a shield, the hero who saves Galar can gain new power.
But maybe... we are no longer the heroes of this era.
There will be new brave men who will stand up for Galar, defeat the dark night, and restore light to the earth.
Cang Xiang and Zangmarante remembered a long-lost figure at the same time and shook their heads.
Even though they lost their swords and shields, Cang Xiang and Zangmarante still have justice and kind hearts, and are known as the "brave men in a hundred battles".
Therefore, Sonia's invitation made them shaken.
Just when the two Legendary Pokémon were silent.
Sonia let out a soft cry, covered her mouth and looked up, her eyes trembling.
A meteorite dragged red light across the sky and fell from the sky.
"That is...the direction of Quanguan City!"
"roar!!!"
Cang Xiang and Zangmarante's eyes widened, and they sensed the dangerous aura of their old rival. Without any hesitation, they let out a long howl and transformed into two streams of light, one red and one blue, following the meteorite falling from the sky.
Quanguan City, top of the Arena Tower.
This is the highest point in the entire Quanguan City, and you can see all the surrounding facilities at a glance.
In the vast night sky, a dark red meteor flashed across the sky. The light continued to expand, and a dark red Pokémon that looked like a dragon bone clung to the burning meteorite.
Wujitai's skeletal claws clung firmly to the surface of the meteorite, and his white-spotted eyes stared expressionlessly at the city.
Suddenly, the meteorite passed over the top of the tower, completely destroying half of the observation tower, while the other half was barely able to hold on.
The Quanguan Arena below the watchtower was hit by a meteorite, exploded with a "boom", and the flames shot into the sky, completely destroyed!
In the blazing flames, Wujitai's sharp claws embedded themselves in the watchtower, gradually climbing to the highest point of Quanguan City.
However, when Wuji Tai climbed up the watchtower, his eyes fell on the uninvited guest in front of him.
"I found you..."
The purple-haired man was wearing a cloak, holding down the brim of his hat, and quickly threw away his peaked cap, revealing an excited smile and piercing golden eyes.
Dandi threw off his cloak, revealing a black sweatshirt and strong arms. He patted his cheeks with both hands and looked directly at the ferocious Wuji Tai Na in front of him.
"The decision is yours, Charizard!!"
"Hoooo!!"
Charizard flaps its wings, without the benefit of Gigantamax or the blessing of Mega evolution, it flaps its wings resolutely and spits out explosive fire in big letters from its mouth!
