Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

In the forest, Thord could hardly believe this was reality.

Roz actually got the Fire Bird from Cirdi and used it to ambush him...

And these damn Poké Balls are all broken at this critical moment!

Thord walked through the forest, holding onto trees, his weak body giving way. His legs ached, and his lungs felt as if they were filled with sulfuric acid.

"Don't run away in such a hurry, Lord Soder, stay and talk to me." Roz's voice came from behind as if he was strolling in the garden.

Soder's body stiffened. When he tried to call upon his superpowers again, he found that it had no effect at all.

Roz smiled helplessly, tilted his head, spread his hands and hummed:

"Don't think about super powers. You have now completely entered the realm of this device. The Poké Ball has long been unusable, right? Abilities below the master level cannot be used."

He stopped above Thord's head, looking down at him through the sparse trees, and then shouted softly: "Action!"

As soon as the voice fell, five or six members of the gang who had been lying in ambush nearby rushed out, tied up Soder and even blocked his mouth.

"Report, the target has been successfully captured, the capture operation was successful!" The team leader of the group stood at attention and shouted.

Roz smiled and waved, and Sod's Poké Ball flew over automatically. Then he ordered:

"Just take him away and bring him to Olivia for research."

"Yes!"

Several people responded and lifted up the still squirming Soder.

A steel armored crow flew slowly from not far away. After these members transported Sod away, Ross sighed:

"What a fool! I wasted so much time dealing with him."

As he said this, he turned around and looked at Pioni who had just arrived.

"My dear brother, you are too slow and you don't seem to have caught anyone."

Pioni said in a deep voice:

"Wang Jin is too cautious. It's impossible for him to meet me again."

"What a pity..." Roz curled his hair and said with some regret: "I was planning to appoint him as the pioneer captain and send him to the outer areas to carry out missions. Of course, you have to capture him alive."

"There's no way he would believe us, and I don't believe you really think so. It's good enough that you didn't slice him up."

Pioni shook his head, tapped the bronze bell beside him, frowned and asked:

"Besides, I really thought the plan was to capture Wang Jin. You changed the plan again for no apparent reason, and you didn't even tell me!"

He would never believe his brother's lies. No one knew what his brother Roz was thinking.

"Hehe..." Roz smiled without saying anything.

His plans were never fixed and were always subject to change.

Before the final, after the complete failure of capturing Wang Jin, Roz never thought of catching him again, nor did he plan to please Soder.

Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance and successfully captured Syldi.

Dealing with Sode was unexpectedly easy. This guy had no sense of vigilance at all, and he didn't know anything about Pokémon battles. He couldn't even notice that Articuno was provoked in the first place.

These two guys are so stupid. He should have done this a long time ago.

"A weak trainer is still weak even if he has a legacy Pokémon. He just has more capital to pretend..."

Ross muttered, tossing the obsidian Poké Ball in his hand.

Pioni said nothing and drove the bronze bell to move south.

"Where are you going?" Roz asked curiously.

Pioni glared at him and yelled, "It's because of you, you bastard! My two daughters haven't seen their daddy for more than half a month. Where do you think I should go?"

Roz stopped curling her hair and was about to respond when she felt the communication device in her pocket vibrate.

He ignored what Pioni said and checked the communication device.

It was Olivia calling, and she started by reporting:

"Lord Ross, all the psychic Pokémon that were rioting in the building have been captured. I've received news that Team A4 is sending someone here."

"Good, remember to study Thord carefully, and it would be best if you could come up with a simple method to create a real superpower..." Roz said, then he remembered something and said, "As for the captured Syldi, you can keep him well for now and use him as a backup material for the experiment."

"Yes, Lord Roz."

After Olivia answered, she hesitated and asked:

"We have prepared mind control drugs. May I ask about your plan for Wang Jin..."

"Failed."

Roz admitted frankly.

Olivia hesitated:

"Now that Emrido has been... stolen, the black market business run by the group should..."

"Don't worry." Roz stretched out his fingers to curl his hair again, and his short beard unconsciously lifted slightly: "It's just an Emrido. Now there is a better replacement."

Galar Articuno!

Olivia breathed a sigh of relief: "Should we send a wanted notice for Wang Jin to other areas?"

Roz thought for a moment, turned his head and looked towards the eastern sea, his smile growing wider:

"no need."

"Yes."

Olivia hung up the phone without asking for the reason or excuse.

Roz's communication device had not been retracted yet, and he was checking the newly received messages with great interest.

It was sent by Wang Jingang:

"Goodbye, President Roz."

......

"Goodbye, Galar."

On the deck, Wang Jin muttered to himself as he threw the group's communication device into the sea.

Another communication device in his hand was also connected immediately.

"Hello?" Dr. Yamanashi said loudly, "Is this Dr. Steel Crow? If not, please don't kill me. I have a ransom..."

"I succeeded."

Wang Jin's head was filled with black lines, and he continued:

"I have successfully left Galar and arrived at the Sant'Annu. I am on the deck and in no danger."

"Oh..." Dr. Yamanashi on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief, a little excited: "Then why don't you come to Sinnoh now? How about I treat you to a meal?"

Sinnoh?

Wang Jin thought about it carefully and was about to refuse, but then he heard Yamanashi say:

"We will be at the Scientific Research Headquarters soon, and you will be needed by then. Otherwise, the researchers below won't even be able to enter Dr. Oak's research institute."

Pokémon Academic Research Association......

Wang Jin remembered that this seemed to be what he had promised Dr. Yamanashi.

Since this headquarters will be in Kanto, he will definitely go to Kanto, and it is okay to stay in Sinnoh for a while.

Anyway, I have finally left Galar, so I can first check out the situation of ordinary trainers before traveling around.

With Wang Jin's current strength, it wouldn't count as fighting in the Baby Cup if he tried out the Kanto Gym or participated in the Silver Tournament, right?

No, Kanto is the headquarters of the alliance, and entry and exit are open, so the strength of the trainers should be higher than that of Galar.

But it's impossible for ordinary gym leaders to have champions and masters, right? Galar shouldn't be considered a novice village.

Wang Jin was thinking, Dr. Yamanashi was still talking:

"Teacher Steelix, you don't know that you are very famous now. Most of the academic world is looking forward to the conference... Our Sinnoh's Professor Mustard Orchid is very interested in you. He asked me about the legend and history of Galar a long time ago..."
