Chapter 490 Mega Heracross, Gary's Arrival
"Isn't it all over already?"
On the plane from the Carlos region to Cerberus in the Sinnoh region.
Serena looked at the newly published newspaper and couldn't help but glance at Sakiko, saying this.
The newspaper was printed urgently the previous afternoon. The largest section of the newspaper prominently featured the moment Xiao Guang won the championship and the moment he held up the championship trophy.
"Ah~ Haha~ Yes...yes~"
Sakiko couldn't resist her daughter's pitiful gaze, so she could only awkwardly smile and give a perfunctory answer.
Although Sakiko could understand Serena's feelings at that moment, she still couldn't help but take the newspaper and exclaim, "This child is really amazing. She won the Sinnoh region's Grand Contest in her first year as a contestant. It seems that no more than five people have ever achieved this feat since the Grand Contest began."
The more Sakiko said this, the more depressed Serena became.
The winner of the Grand Contest.
Hasn't this already fulfilled my dream?
At least the initial part of the dream has been realized.
Serena didn't have a clear idea of how big the gap was between the champion of the Sinnoh Grand Festival and the strongest Coordinator.
And none of these were her biggest concerns; what she cared about most was—
"So when will this plane arrive in Chefven?" Serena asked.
"Well....."
Sakiko took the plane ticket out of her pocket and looked at it.
"Around 6 p.m."
At 6 p.m. the day after the grand celebration ended.
No matter how you look at it, Serena doesn't think she can meet Ash in Celeste City.
After all, the League of Legends tournament is already approaching, so normally they won't stay in Chipfield for long.
As she pondered, Serena lost all her strength and let her body sink into the airplane seat, slowly closing her eyes. In her mind, she recalled the scene of her first meeting with Ash.
......
at the same time.
Within Qiefeng City.
"Hmm... Lucario's... Salamence's... Charizard's... Heracross's... Garchomp's..."
"Pikachu?"
On an open field on the outskirts of Celeste City, Ash was sorting through the Mega Stones in his backpack by himself.
Currently, the Mega Stones available are those from Salamence, Heracross, and Charizard. Ash has only experimented with Salamence and confirmed that it can Mega Evolve. As for the remaining two...
"Hey! Heracross! Stop sucking the sap! Isn't it winter? Can you really suck any more out?"
"Herak?"
Heracross, clinging to the tree, looked up at Ash with a blank expression after hearing his question, seemingly not quite understanding what Ash meant.
"Sigh—" Ash couldn't help but cover his face and shake his head after seeing Heracross's performance.
They were supposed to board the train to Lily of the Valley today, but after Ash found a Heracross Mega Stone while organizing his backpack, he decided to postpone the trip by a day. So Ash and his friends stayed in Celeste City.
I don't know why all my stones so far have been Mega Stones, but... it's better than nothing, right?
Xiao Guang was called away by Xiao Song early this morning, who said that someone important was looking for her.
Xiao Gang, on the other hand, went to a breeder's house in Qiefeng City, saying he wanted to find inspiration there.
Since no one is free to come over.
So Ash simply traded Heracross with Professor Oak, and then took Pikachu alone to the outskirts where he had previously Mega Evolved Salamence, wanting to try Mega Evolving Heracross as well.
As for Charizard...
The journey is a little long, so we'll call it that when we're on Lily of the Valley.
Ash came to Heracross's side and gently stroked Heracross's body, which was covered with battle scars.
"But you've really worked hard, always putting in so much effort."
"Herak~"
Although she didn't know why she was being praised, Heracross's eyes naturally narrowed as she enjoyed Ash's stroking.
Ash strung Heracross's Mega Stone on a rope and then put it on Heracross.
Seemingly sensing that something was about to happen, Heracross jumped down from the tree and stood there quietly.
The power of the aura began to ripple outwards from Ash, and with a wave of Ash's hand, the energy within the Mega Stone began to rapidly merge into Heracross's body.
With a flash of white light, Heracross, having completed its Mega Evolution, appeared before Ash and Pikachu.
"Herak!"
After completing his evolution, Heracross raised his hand in disbelief to look at his current appearance.
As if he had inexhaustible strength, Heracross turned around and casually waved his arms at the tree behind him.
"boom--!"
A loud explosion was heard.
The trees that had stood proudly in the snow just moments before were snapped in half by Heracross's casual strike.
"Pikachu?!"
Before Ash could react, Pikachu exclaimed in surprise.
The power of this attack was truly astonishing. No one expected that Heracross's power would increase so dramatically after Mega Evolution.
"It seems there are indeed no restrictions, and the consumption of waveguide is not too great."
Ash casually waved his arm, conjuring a wave sphere in his hand. After finding nothing unusual, Ash finally felt relieved.
This gives you two more cards in your hand.
Just as Ash was thinking this, the aura he emitted seemed to detect something, so Ash turned around and looked at the forest behind him, calling out, "Gary?"
rustling~
A sound came from the woods.
Gary, dressed in practical mountaineering gear, appeared before Ash.
"Did they find out about this? I spent so much time practicing my stealth skills, what a waste."
"What exactly are you practicing this for... Aren't you a researcher? Wait, no, I should be asking why you're here?"
"Wrong, wrong, wrong." Xiao Mao raised his index finger and shook it gently. "They are front-line researchers, not only responsible for research, but also occasionally for fighting people, so stealth and tracking skills are very important."
After answering Ash's previous questions, Gary crossed his arms, his gaze shifting between Ash and Heracross with an amused look, and slowly said, "Of course I came here specifically to see you. I definitely wouldn't have come if I didn't have something to ask you. I can't possibly go through all this trouble just to congratulate your best partner in person, can I?"
