Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 65 Mammon, I Will Challenge the Four Heavenly Kings of Kanto
Originally, Mammon planned to capture Tapu Koko and Tapu Bulu before leaving the Alola region.

But now that I think about it, it really was a case of losing more than you gain.

Catching Tapu Koko and Tapu Bulu simply adds two more legendary Pokémon to the organization's prize list, since Mammon himself doesn't intend to raise them.

This means we'd have to keep them both alive and prevent them from escaping, so it's better not to catch them at all.

Firstly, with Tapu Koko and Tapu Bulu managing the four Alola Islands respectively, the backlash from Kukui and the others can be reduced, since people always compromise.

Compared to Team Rocket 'stealing' all four Tapu, the psychological threshold of only taking two is obviously not high enough to make Kukui and the Island King directly confront Team Rocket.

Secondly, it must be mentioned that Ultra Beasts do indeed randomly appear in various parts of Alola, and with wild Tapu Koko and others protecting them, the casualties and damage caused by Ultra Beasts to the Alola region will be greatly reduced.

Because Kapu and Mingming will step in to solve the problem.

After all, Ultra Beasts harm Alola's interests, which, in a sense, also harms Team Rocket's interests, right?

"Tsk~ It's a good thing I didn't do anything, otherwise I would have had to release them again, which would have been a waste of my efforts."

Mammon clicked his tongue and gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.

Kapok and Chirp left, and Mammon and the other two stepped down from the Moon Altar. It was getting late, so they naturally planned to rest for the night on Poni Island.

"Mr. Mammon, you recognize Nebula's current form, right?"

On the way, Lillie asked Mammon.

“Hmm.” Mammon nodded.

Lunala, Psychic/Ghost type, Moon Ring Pokémon

Special ability: Phantom Defense
Known as the 'Beast That Invites the Moon,' it sustains its life by converting all light into energy.

Mammon gave a brief verbal description of Lunala's Pokédex information. Speaking of which, he should talk to Kukui about this before leaving Alola.

"'Inviting the Moon Beast', isn't that a legendary Pokémon from the Alola region?"

Caldea seemed thoughtful upon hearing this. Although she didn't know much about the history of the Alola region, she had heard of this.

"That's right, 'The Beast That Invites the Moon' and 'The Beast That Devours the Sun' are legendary Pokémon recorded in ancient documents."

Lillie nodded silently, a hint of confusion in her eyes. She really hadn't expected that Little Nebula was actually the 'Beast That Invites the Moon' recorded in ancient texts!
Since ancient times, it has been revered as the messenger of the moon, and the ancients called it the beast that invites the moon with awe.

What kind of being have I been taking care of?

Although they are all called legendary Pokémon, the four legendary Pokémon of Capo and Lunala are not even in the same league as legendary Pokémon.

To put it simply, Lunala's significance to the Alola region is equivalent to Ho-Oh and Lugia in Kanto, or Dialga and Palkia in Sinnoh.

This refers specifically to the region's rich history and the significance of its ancient texts, without comparing military strength.

Did Mr. Mammon know about the origins of the little nebula from the beginning?

Lillie suddenly realized what was happening.

"No, actually I didn't think of it that way at first, but the appearance of the little nebula after its first evolution is very similar to the 'star cocoon' in the ancient book, so I guessed it."

Mammon shook his head in denial.

Lillie remained silent upon hearing this, but she breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, even if she didn't want to think that way, she would have suspected that Mammon was deliberately getting close to her and Nebula.

The three chatted as they arrived at a nearby town and booked three rooms at a guesthouse.

"Hey, Dad."

Just after I finished showering, Sakaki called.

"The three divine birds have been captured. Would you like to breed one?"

Giovanni said calmly, as if to say that the three Pidgeys had been successfully captured. "Oh? Sabrina and the others are really fast."

Mammon raised an eyebrow. The three legendary birds of Kanto naturally refer to Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres.

The three key members of Team Rocket were entrusted with this important task by Giovanni.

"My hand is already full. Let me think... I'll keep Zapdos and Articuno for now, and leave Moltres to be raised at the breeding farm."

Mammon pondered for a moment before speaking, saying that he wasn't particularly interested in the three divine birds.

"You want to send one to Mizuki?"

Sakaki saw through Mammon's intentions in an instant, after all, Mammon had deliberately left behind two divine birds.

His thoughts are so easy to guess; he's never been stingy with Mizuki.

"Ha~ As expected of Dad."

"Mammon, are you sure Mizuki can accept your identity?"

Sakaki sighed softly. After all, he had taken care of Mizuki for several months last year, so he deeply understood how outstanding Mizuki was.

It's no exaggeration to say that Giovanni felt Mizuki's talent as a trainer was in no way inferior to Mammon's, and in some aspects even surpassed it.

The appearance of Mammon and Mizuki, two 'monsters,' made Giovanni feel as if his common sense had been completely disregarded.

The good news is that one of them is his son, and the other is his future daughter-in-law.

Giovanni also likes Mizuki quite a bit, but the key question is, will Mizuki accept Mammon's Team Rocket identity?

If you can't accept that, then Mammon has personally nurtured a super boss.

“Dad, you don’t understand. This is the bond between us.” Mammon shook his head. He had absolute faith in Mizuki.

Even if her identity is exposed, Mizuki will firmly believe that the Elf Alliance is evil because it forced Mammon to be wanted!
"Alright then." Sakaki chuckled.

"By the way, Dad, I've caught a lot of Ultra Beasts. Do you want to train a couple? Ultra Beasts are all pretty strong."

Are there any Ground-type?

"No."

"Let's wait until we find a suitable Ground-type." Sakaki took a sip of tea; his handheld team was already full.

Furthermore, he prefers Ground-type Pokémon and has little interest in Pokémon of other types.

He wasn't interested even in ordinary legendary Pokémon, such as Moltres.

He was very confident that the main force he had personally trained would be no worse than a legend like Moltres.

Originally, the 'artificial god' created by the organization's genetic research was intended for himself, but Mammon seemed to like it too, so Giovanni gave it to Mammon.

“Okay.” Mammon didn’t say anything more. He already had an idea of ​​what Pokémon to prepare for Giovanni.

“The Alola area is basically finished now. I’ll go back to the capital in a while,” Mammon said after thinking for a moment.

"Hmm." A smile appeared on Sakaki's mature, somewhat gloomy face.

“Mammon, I’ve applied for the Kanto Elite Four Challenge at the end of the year.”

Mammon was taken aback.

"Dad, are you serious?"
