Persistent rain.
The chant-like long cry is sometimes distant, sometimes near.
Not only in the port area, but more and more people in Ever Grande City are looking up to the sky. Upon discovering the spectacular scene of two Lugia tumbling in the rain clouds, they excitedly either call friends or hurriedly record it on their phones.
"Whoa! Whoa!"
"Lugia, a mysterious existence once revered as the Sea God and Wind God in ancient times, so beautiful..."
"Indeed, as a Trainer, one should capture Pokémon like this!"
"You? Hahaha, how do you plan to capture them? They are at least several thousand meters in the sky! How do you plan to get up there?"
The city is in a frenzy.
The Pokémon League Conference is about to start, and many Trainers have gathered in Ever Grande City.
Now, with the appearance of a Legendary Pokémon, some people can't hold back but are helpless about the height where Lugia is.
Of course.
Many more either stand on the spot looking up happily or seek quiet shelter from the rain under a quiet eave, carefully listening to the humming reminiscent of the sea's rhythm.
And the orchestral sound of wind and rain.
Within just a few minutes.
The incident of Legendary Pokémon appearing on Ever Grande Island has risen to the hot search with more and more short videos, transmitted worldwide through the developed internet, attracting more Trainers.
How many chances does an ordinary person have to see a Legendary Pokémon in their lifetime?
Lucky ones might have one or two.
Unlucky ones might never see one.
For those who long for Legendary Pokémon, chasing their trails is both interesting and meaningful.
Under the outdoor canopy of the café.
Mann Chong, sitting opposite Gallade, took a sip of black coffee, his delicate face wrinkling from the bitterness, and then sighed, "It was worth coming here, I wonder if Baimu saw it."
He glanced at the dim phone screen, feeling somewhat expectant about reuniting.
Outside the city at the Ever Grande Conference site.
The League Commission Chairman Tamaranze laughed heartily, his eyebrows showing a kind expression, "Did the Legendary Pokémon come to celebrate the League Conference too? Hohoho ~ I can't stand it ~"
"This is a good omen, Chairman Tamaranze!"
His assistant adjusted his glasses, excitedly said, "This conference will certainly be unprecedentedly successful!"
Officer Jenny of Ever Grande City came running from a distance, saluting as she said, "The Holy Fire is properly preserved, and half the runners for the fire relay race have arrived in Ever Grande City!"
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Jun Sha."
Tamaranze nodded, stroking his fluffy beard, said, "The fire relay race will be held as usual, Moltres' Holy Fire is not so easily extinguished, no need to worry."
Officer Jenny saluted again, shouted, "Yes!"
She turned and walked towards the vehicles preserving the Holy Fire, feeling noticeably smaller raindrops on her shoulder, and could not help but look up at the sky.
"Is the rain going to stop?"
Seemingly confirming her words, the white rain clouds gradually dispersed from an endless whole, and sunlight pierced through the clouds to the ground, presenting a moving golden light.
A splendid rainbow bridge etched far on the horizon, dazzling and mesmerizing.
And then.
"Chirp—!!"
"Woo~~"
Amid fluctuating ethereal cries, two shimmering silver figures descended from the firmament under the shining Sun, disappearing on the other side of the horizon like stars descending into the world.
Officer Jenny's eyes trembled, snapping back moments later, "That's towards the port!"
She quickly took out her walkie-talkie, reminding the headquarters to dispatch officers to the port. Legendary Pokémon would surely cause a disturbance, mainly because Trainers longing for them would send out Pokémon to battle them regardless of the occasion.
The power possessed by Legendary Pokémon is not comparable to ordinary Trainers; it's easy to accidentally harm ordinary citizens at the port.
At the port location.
Just as Officer Jenny anticipated, chaos erupted.
Many people released their Water Attribute Pokémon into the sea, commanding them to dive and search for the position of Lugia.
It was so sudden; the two Lugia flew rapidly in succession, plunging into the sea, and by the time people reacted, they had already vanished.
And away from the noisy crowd.
Baimu said to those reminiscing about the scene, "Let's go, if we don't leave now, the crowd will only get larger."
"Baimu is right."
Xiaogang nodded in agreement, "The songs of Lugia must have reached the city district. If normal Trainers saw Lugia descending to the port, they'd definitely come to have a look."
Xiaoguang regretfully said, "It's a shame I couldn't say goodbye to them personally. I hope their journey ahead is safe... no, I'm wrong. They'll definitely be fine!"
She clenched her fist, overturning her previous worries.
Piplup raised its little wings, affirming the Trainer's words, "Po-kka-kka!"
"I feel inspired for a new song!"
Liuqia never forgot her main duty, nudged Xiaoguang's shoulder, and said joyfully, "Let's quickly find a place to stay! I can't wait to write it down!"
After the excited conversation.
The group expressed their gratitude to the captain who brought them there.
"No, no, I should thank you guys. I might never forget this experience... hahahaha, but don't worry, Baimu buddy, I won't tell anyone!"
The captain gave him a thumbs-up, with big white teeth contrasting his dark skin reflecting in the sunlight.
Baimu: "..."
As it was already afternoon, they would stay on the ship for a night, returning to Glazed City the next morning to avoid sailing at night.
And as predicted, large groups of people flowed in from the city, mostly Trainers holding Pokeballs.
