On this day, Hu Yang invited Daigo, Mikri, Sirona, Du, Xiaozhi, Dr. Odamaki and his family, Dr. Oki, as well as teachers and students of Pokémon School to visit the ecological island.
Everyone and the Pokémon had lunch on the vibrant grass in front of the zoo.
After it was over, everyone gathered together in twos and threes and chatted with each other with smiles on their faces.
Dr. Kukui was talking to Ash about what happened after the World Championship with his Blazing Roaring Tiger.
Dr. Oki, Dr. Odamaki and Daichi were discussing the latest research in academia.
Yushu enthusiastically challenged the former Hoenn champion Daigo, with Mikri acting as the referee, and the two had a fierce battle on the grass nearby.
This attracted Principal Chengye, Kaqi and others to the side to watch.
Sirona sat elegantly on the chair, quietly enjoying the pleasant afternoon time while drinking the ecological park's specialty fruit tea.
The cloak on A'Du's back rustled in the sea breeze. He folded his arms and stood with Populus euphratica, looking at the scene in front of him.
At this time, Lillie came over wearing a white dress.
She walked up to Hu Yang and whispered: "Teacher Hu Yang..."
Hu Yang looked at her and asked, "What's the matter? Student Lillie?"
Lillie nodded and said seriously: "My brother, my mother, and I successfully found my father in the Galar region... I want to say thank you, Arigado, Teacher Hu Yang! Mother said that the Ether Foundation will always be welcome!"
Faced with this incident, Hu Yang did not take credit for himself. He just smiled and said: "No need to thank me, that is your own efforts."
After all, even without him, Lillie and the others would have successfully found Dr. Morn.
And his suggestions only reduced the tortuous process.
Lillie shook her head firmly: "No, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have found our father so quickly!"
"..." Hu Yang had no choice but to change the subject: "Is Dr. Moen okay?"
Lillie nodded slightly: "Well, dad is fine. Brother and the others have returned to the Alola area."
"That's good." Hu Yang nodded.
Suddenly, the voices of Shuilian and Mao came from behind.
"Hey! Lillie, come here quickly! Teacher Hu Yang's Gardevoir has prepared a lot of desserts for us! You won't be able to eat them if you don't come over here!"
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Lillie's face.
She looked at Populus euphratica in front of her.
Hu Yang also smiled and nodded: "Go!"
Then, Lillie turned around and ran towards Suiren and Mao.
“It’s so lively!”
Du on the side sighed with emotion.
Hu Yang nodded in agreement: "Yes!"
Looking at these young people, Hu Yang suddenly became interested, and he asked: "Would you like to take a group photo to commemorate them?"
Du was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Of course."
Hu Yang stood up, returned to the ecological park, took out his camera, and shouted to everyone:
"Hey, everyone! Come over here and take a group photo together as a souvenir!"
"Picture?"
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted.
Hu Yang raised his eyebrows: "Don't you think this is a good time to take a commemorative photo?"
Michaeli was the first to react.
He looked around and said with a smile: "Indeed, the champions of Kanto, Sinnoh, Hoenn, and Alola are gathered together, as well as the champions of the previous eight masters. If they are posted online, they will definitely
Will it cause a big sensation?"
"Taking a photo together!"
Xiaozhi and others seemed very excited. He looked at the people around him and felt that this kind of time was very rare. He nodded and said: "Then let's get one together!"
Others had no objections.
Seeing this, Hu Yang raised the camera in his hand and said with a smile: "Then come on!"
Everyone began to arrange their positions.
Hu Yang took the camera and began to play the role of a qualified photographer: "Dr. Omu, please squat down!"
"Dawu, don't look so stiff on your face, just smile!"
"...Mikri, your posture is too exaggerated, can you be more restrained?"
"A'Du, your cloak is in the way, so I can't see Sirona."
"Lillie-san, um, it's okay. Just stay in your current position and don't move. That's fine!"
"..."
After giving some pointers to these champions, Hu Yang handed the camera to Rotom and then ran to the seat reserved for him.
After he stood still, Dr. Kukui said: "I'll count to three, two, one, let's all call Alola!"
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
Everyone said in unison with smiles on their faces: "Alola!"
"Crack!"
With a click, the picture freezes.

"Master, who are these people in the photo? Are they your friends?"
In the ecological garden, Cross saw the photo that Populus euphratica placed on the desk and couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, Hu Yang also turned his attention to the photo and looked at the familiar faces on it.
He hummed softly, nodded and said, "Well, those are a very lovely group of people."
At this time, the wind blew by, and the curtains by the window slowly fluttered.
Populus euphratica looked out the window, looking in the direction of the wind after thousands of years.
There were the cutest and kindest people he had ever met in the world.
