The Team Rocket trio let out a sigh of relief.
"Looks like Giratina isn't as terrifying as the legends say, Meowth!" Meowth said, watching Giratina's silhouette fading into the distance.
"But talking about that, if Giratina is here, doesn't it mean this is Giratina's Reversed World?" James asked.
"That's probably the case." Jessie replied, "Now the most important thing is to figure out how to get out of this cursed place!"
However, Meowth did not pay attention to her, as another thought suddenly crossed its mind.
"Such a powerful Pokémon, might the boss want to capture Giratina, Meowth?" It asked.
"Probably not? And if I remember correctly, Giratina belongs to that Motorcycle Mask guy, it's likely his strength isn't just this." James calmly thought for a moment and continued:
"Knowing the boss, he might not want to cause trouble with the other person, but rather look for a chance to become friends."
"True, Meowth." Meowth nodded, after all, stopping the battle between Groudon and Kyogre was no easy feat, angering him might lead to severe consequences.
Jessie's forehead veins twitched as she grabbed Meowth by the neck with one hand and James by the collar with the other, gritting her teeth and saying:
"Hey, you two! Hurry up and come up with a way to leave this cursed place!"

Naoki Ranch, 1:00 PM.
After returning from the Abundant Shrine on the back mountain, Professor Oak took the kids to Naoki's Wooloo Ranch to observe the Wooloo ecosystem there.
Meanwhile, Naoki stayed in the living room, trying to learn about Giratina's situation through its Rotom Phone.
[King Wing: Rotom, how's the situation?]
Hiding between Giratina's shell crevices, the nervous Rotom was trembling.
Upon seeing Naoki's message, it immediately replied using Giratina's account.
[Giratina: Giratina hasn't looked at the phone, Rotom!]
[King Wing: What is it doing right now?]
[Giratina: I don't know either, but Giratina seems unable to get out, Rotom!]
[Giratina: I see it flying around desperately, like it's searching for something, Rotom!]
Upon seeing these messages, Naoki quickly realized the current situation.
It must be Shaymin!
Shaymin's Seed Flare can break Dialga's power constraints, opening the passage from the Reversed World to the real world!
The Shaymin from the anime is very special, it not only can communicate with humans using telepathy, but also has a somewhat proud demeanor, quite tsundere.
Especially since it likes to instruct people around it... Ash couldn't help but complain a few times back then, which Shaymin never forgot.
It loves to sit on Ash's head, making him feel it is troublesome through this method.
But all this is merely the outward appearance of Shaymin.
Naoki clearly remembers that at the end of the movie, Shaymin admitted to Ash that it never really disliked him and was very grateful for everything Ash and his friends had done for it.
Speaking of which, Ash!
If only Ash could be contacted to suggest Giratina doesn't mean any harm, just wants to borrow Shaymin's Seed Flare to break Dialga's seal!
But, he doesn't seem to have Ash's phone number...
The last time Naoki met Ash was already a year ago.
Back then, Jirachi had just awoken from its slumber, and Ash and his friends guided by the Heroic Expedition Team brought Jirachi to the ranch.
Later, Ash called once to inquire about Jirachi's condition, but it was through the Pokémon Center's video phone.
Ash doesn't have the habit of equipping a Rotom Phone... His Rotom Phone was provided by Professor Cerise during his journey.
Coincidentally, Gary walked in from outside, intending to borrow some Pokémon healing potions from Naoki to use on the Pokémon injured during a battle.
Upon hearing Gary's intention, Naoki stood up and fetched a few bottles of Life Sheep Milk, saying: "A ranch specialty, it works better than healing potions, take it and use it!"
MooMoo Milk? That fresh milk from Miltank indeed helps Pokémon recover their strength, Gary thought.
He thanked Naoki and was about to turn to leave when he noticed the thoughtful frown on Naoki's face.
Gary stopped in his tracks, unable to resist asking: "Mr. Naoki, are you facing some difficulty?"
"Not really!" Naoki glanced at Gary, suddenly realizing he might be able to get Ash's phone number from him: "By the way, Gary, you're also a Trainer from Pallet Town, right?"
Gary nodded: "That's right, but speaking of which, why did you say also, Mr. Naoki?"
"That's because I previously met a Trainer from Pallet Town!" Naoki replied with a smile: "His name is Ash, you know him, right?"
Ash... So that's the guy!
Gary nodded: "Of course, he and I set out for our journey from Pallet Town several years ago."
"Haha, what are you guys chatting about?" At this moment, Professor Oak walked in from outside, intending to check why Gary hadn't returned, only to hear Ash's name.
Naoki was about to answer when suddenly Professor Oak's Rotom Phone rang.
"Oh? Hold on, I'll take this call!" Professor Oak pulled out his Rotom Phone and pressed to answer.
Immediately, Ash appeared on the screen.
