Green's face lit up with intense curiosity. "Huh? Who are you planning to buy it for?"
"For Kris," Gold replied without batting an eye. "She gave chocolates before, so I should return the favor."
Natsu suddenly understood.
Kris was short for Crystal, whose talent was 'Capturer.' She was currently assisting Professor Samuel Oak in collecting Pokémon data.
In a way, Gold and Crystal were quite a good match…
Lorelei clutched her head, her eyes welling up with tears. "Don't just casually say things that sting!"
Lance teased, "Don't tell soone here hasn't received chocolates on Valentine's Day?"
[Group mber 'Lance' has been muted by Group Owner 'Natsu-sensei' for 5 minutes.]
Gold's eyes sparkled as he exclaid, "No way! Natsu-sensei hasn't received a Valentine's gift?!"
[Group mber 'Gold' has been muted by Group Owner 'Natsu-sensei' for 5 minutes.]
Red, who rarely appeared online, glanced at the group chat and suddenly realized sothing. "Oh, so you're supposed to return the favor after receiving chocolates!"
Red: @Yellow, what do you want for Tanabata Festival?
Yellow's face turned red, but before she could feel touched, Red tagged Misty.
Red: @Misty, I'll return the favor to you too.
Yellow: ???
Natsu-sensei: ???
What kind of dog-food-flinging operation is this?!
[Group admin 'Red' has been muted by Group Owner 'Natsu-sensei' for 5 minutes.]
Three mutes in a row—the cowardly Group Owner has gone mad!
...
Gold picked out a snow globe for Kris.
Despite his knack for stirring up trouble, Gold could be surprisingly thoughtful in certain areas.
His emotional intelligence was definitely higher than a certain Battler's.
As Tanabata Festival approached, the traditional holiday from Touran influenced the big shots in the group.
Blue Oak received a Tanabata gift from Red—a Charizard figurine.
"It's quite exquisite…"
Blue Oak murmured, then clicked his tongue and placed the figurine next to his Champion trophies.
Sabrina received letters from her followers, Brock celebrated with his younger siblings, and Lorelei stayed ho watching Kanto Love Story…
Yellow had wanted to invite Red to watch a movie, but Red had already rushed back to Mt. Silver, dashing her hopes once again.
The dumb couple from Hoenn packed their luggage and prepared to head to Touran.
"Ruby, does this hair accessory look good on ?"
Sapphire stood nervously in front of the mirror, tying a red ribbon in her hair.
"It looks great."
"You didn't even turn your head!" Sapphire grabbed Ruby by the neck.
"Cough, cough, because nothing could ever compare to you in my eyes!"
"Are you saying I'm not pretty?!"
"I'm sorry, please pretend I never said that."
"No way! If you don't explain yourself clearly today, you're not sleeping!"
...
Sevii Islands, Team Rocket Base.
Matori answered a secure line, speaking respectfully. "This is Matori. How may I assist you?"
A man's hoarse yet powerful voice ca through the receiver. "What's the status of the cot information you've gathered?"
"Based on the data from Mossdeep City Space Center, there's a high probability that this is related to Jirachi's revival ritual."
Matori continued, "But Touran's security is tight, and… the teorite seems to be escorted by a Champion."
Giovanni tapped the armrest of his chair, his voice gravelly. "Then it's not worth taking unnecessary risks… Recall all our personnel."
Matori hesitated. "To be honest, due to the strict controls, I've already recalled most of our people…"
"What's the issue?" Giovanni frowned slightly.
"But there's a small team that, for so reason, resisted the recall order."
Giovanni sighed softly.
He didn't even need Matori to say it—he already knew exactly which team it was.
"Let them be."
Giovanni rubbed his forehead in resignation.
"Prepare an escape route for them… Those three idiots…"
Matori was slightly puzzled, unsure why Giovanni cared so much about these three.
But upon reflection, whether it was their efforts against Team Plasma in Unova or the 'Storm Plan,' the trio had made significant contributions…
"Understood," Matori said respectfully.
...
August 26th, Wednesday.
The weather was clear.
Natsu, with Eevee perched on his shoulder and Haunter floating beside him, embarked on his journey to Kazurino.
The train was filled with astronomy enthusiasts, all heading to Buryō to observe the upcoming cot teor shower.
However, it was said that several observation sites had been set up, so with a bit of luck, they could find a secluded spot.
By afternoon, Natsu arrived at Buryō's natural scenic area and was imdiately awestruck by the breathtaking landscape.
In the distance, towering rock peaks rose sharply into the clouds, as if carved by a giant's blade.
Swablu and Natu, rare bird Pokémon, flitted through the misty air.
Lush pine forests dotted the rocky peaks, their reflections shimring in the clear waters. A cable car glided through the clouds, and flocks of Pidgey soared overhead…
"Eevee…" Eevee, perched on Natsu's shoulder, stared wide-eyed at the scenery.
"Haunter, grab the bags," Natsu said, clearing his throat. "We still need to buy tickets!"
"Haunter!" Haunter, carrying a backpack three tis its size, nodded vigorously.
The eting point with Steven was near the astronomical observatory.
As Natsu admired the unique rock formations, he heard the sound of bickering in the distance.
"Sapphire, slow down!"
"Hurry, hurry, we're almost there!"
Leading the group was a man with light blue hair, dressed in a suit, shaking his head in resignation.
Suddenly, the man's eyes lit up as he recognized Natsu. "Natsu-sensei."
This was Natsu's first ti eting Steven in person.
Curiously studying the legendary Rock Enthusiast, Natsu stroked his chin.
Not bad—his looks are on par with mine!
Natsu smiled. "The teor shower isn't until tonight. Did we arrive too early?"
"It's almost sunset," Steven said, gazing at the distant mountains with a smile. "If we're lucky, we might see so teors tonight."
Behind him, Ruby and Sapphire were whispering to each other.
"Is that Natsu-sensei? He looks so young."
"Be polite, Ruby! If you upset him, your life might be in danger!"
"Let introduce you," Steven said, gesturing. "These are two Pokédex Holders from the Hoenn Region, Ruby and Sapphire."
"And this is… uh…"
Natsu interjected, "Gaming section content creator, Natsu-sensei."
Sapphire, wearing a red headband, stared at Natsu with sparkling eyes. "Natsu-sensei! I heard you went toe-to-toe with Mr. Lance. Is that true?"
Natsu coughed lightly and nodded slowly.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Sapphire exclaid.
She had expected Natsu-sensei to be a gray-haired scholar…
But he didn't look much older than her and Ruby!
"Eek!"
Ruby suddenly let out a squeal, excitedly looking at the Eevee on Natsu's shoulder. "Natsu-sensei, is this your bred Pokémon? It's so adorable!"
"Eevee?" Eevee glanced coldly at Ruby before turning its head away in disdain.
"C-Can I pet it?"
Ruby clasped his hands together, looking pleadingly at Natsu.
Steven smiled and explained, "Ruby is a Pokémon Coordinator. He has a soft spot for cute Pokémon."
Natsu glanced at Eevee. "Sorry… This guy doesn't like being touched by strangers."
Ruby sighed in disappointnt but was inwardly surprised.
Whether it was the fur color or the physique, this Eevee's cuteness had been polished to perfection.
Could Natsu-sensei actually be… a Pokémon Coordinator?
"Haunter!"
Haunter cheerfully erged from Natsu's shadow, startling Ruby.
"W-Wait!" Ruby exclaid. "This is… polished cleverness?!"
"What are you talking about, Ruby?" Sapphire looked confused.
Ruby's talent was 'Charr,' allowing him to assess a Pokémon's potential in Coordination and personality.
And Natsu-sensei's two Pokémon, in terms of 'cleverness' and 'cuteness,' left Ruby utterly amazed!
"Natsu-sensei, are you a Coordinator?" Ruby asked excitedly, as if he had found a kindred spirit.
Steven, hearing this for the first ti, also looked intrigued.
Could Natsu-sensei's path be similar to Wallace's?
"Coordinator?" Natsu shook his head. "I just feed them regular Pokéblocks occasionally."
