Orange Archipelago.
On a lush, tree-covered island.
A gentle breeze blew under the azure sky as Fang Yuan leaned against a large tree, quietly scrolling through his phone.
There were quite a few messages, after reading Mikkeli's, Fang Yuan started to go through the ones from Shigeru and Konoha.
Then he moved on to the messages from Dr. Oak and Hirona.
After reading them, Fang Yuan had a pretty good idea of what had happened during the time he summoned the Legendary Pokémon and dismantled Rocket Team.
"...The Alliance actually suspects me of stealing parts of that airship and wants me to hand them over?"
"Is this how they treat a hero who saved the Orange Archipelago?"
"Am I that sort of person? It was clearly Rotom and the 3D Dragon along with the Celebi who stole them, what does that have to do with me, Fang Yuan? This is infuriating."
"Illegally possessing weapons of mass destruction, that's not a blame I'm willing to take."
"Hmm... But how is the Alliance so well-informed? No sooner had Rocket Team announced its dissolution than Shigeru came asking if it had anything to do with me...?"
Fang Yuan replied to Shigeru and Konoha:
"I didn't steal the airship's power core; it's Rocket Team that's framing me, hmm… Because of this matter, I specifically sought out Rocket Team and had a confrontation with Giovanni. Rocket Team indeed realized their mistake, therefore they decided to reform and disbanded."
By replying to Shigeru and Konoha, he acknowledged that the dissolution of Rocket Team was related to him. With this relationship, Fang Yuan guessed that probably no one would dare to trouble him anymore.
After that, Fang Yuan replied to Dr. Oak and Hirona.
"The issue has been resolved, don't worry, thank you very much."
Both of them knew Fang Yuan's identity and were relatively trusting of him. After responding to these two, he saw Xiaozhi's messages.
This guy's messages... didn't offer much substance. One part was asking where Fang Yuan had gone, while another mentioned his Charizard really missing Milotic...
I don't agree to this marriage—
Not Elder Spray either!
Fang Yuan still cared about his own Dragonite's emotions, even if Rayquaza were to show up and try to steal the bride, it wouldn't work!
No matter who the father is, it ends up birthing only Ugly Fish anyway.
However, what's heartbreaking is that although Fang Yuan ships Dragonite and Milotic, Milotic is indifferent to Dragonite. Just when will this Dragonite be able to touch Milotic's heart...
"In my lifetime series, I hope to see the result before I'm buried."
"But it seems, Milotic has indeed become the crush of many a Dragon in the Pokémon World. Should I consider holding a matchmaking convention for Milotic?"
"The winner of the matchmaking convention gets a date with Milotic for a day, then I can let Dragonite participate... Maybe it can truly unleash Dragonite's potential..."
Well... that's assuming all of Dragonite's rivals are strong. Speaking of which, I wonder if Shigeru's Dragon Type Pokémon and Mikkeli's Water Type Pokémon would take a liking to Milotic... If they all develop feelings for Milotic, Fang Yuan probably knows what to do.
Dark Lugia not only told Fang Yuan how to strengthen the force of darkness but also imparted to Dragonite the understanding of controlling this dark power through Mind Induction before leaving. So as for the potential of Dragonite now, even Fang Yuan couldn't be sure.
He was already itching to develop it.
Nonetheless, although Fang Yuan could come up with many dark plots with just a thought, that would be too unfriendly. Even in a dream, Fang Yuan couldn't bear to do such a thing to his own foolish dragon. So, how to gently enhance Dragonite's dark power was indeed giving Fang Yuan a headache.
"Bwoo—"
As Fang Yuan pondered a relatively friendly way to enhance the dark power, Eevee fell from a tree, then climbed up on Fang Yuan's shoulder, patting his face with its cool, pudgy paws.
Ah... what am I staying here for...
"Let's go now!"
"Let's visit Johto first and see if there are any Tablets there."
"If not, we'll head back to Base Island on the way, and then... take a trip back to Earth via the time-space passage to hand over the three Tablets we have to Jirachi."
"As for when we return, well, then it's off to Hoenn!"
Fang Yuan quickly shared the upcoming itinerary with Eevee.
Fang Yuan had almost finished finding Tablets around Kanto, including the Orange Archipelago; next up were Johto and Hoenn.
......
As Fang Yuan departed on Dragonite, Shigeru and the others received his response.
Upon seeing the reply, Shigeru and Konoha were completely flabbergasted.
It turned out everything the Handsome Mister said was true.
The dissolution of Rocket Team was indeed related to Fang Yuan.
"Because Fang Yuan saved the Orange Archipelago, he gained the friendship of some Legendary Pokémon, and since Rocket Team messed with these Legendary Pokémon, they asked this human, Fang Yuan, to lead the way for them to seek revenge?" Konoha said.
"That's the only explanation... At least the Legendary Pokémon mentioned by Handsome Guy definitely couldn't have been Fang Yuan's own Pokémon, otherwise I don't know how we'll be able to defeat him in the upcoming Pokémon Championship," Shigeru said with a wry smile.
"Regardless, the fact is Fang Yuan, along with a dozen Legendary Pokémon, brought down Rocket Team, and now the news of the team's dissolution can be confirmed... Now that the news is out, those guys from the Alliance should calm down."
"And see, Fang Yuan himself said it: the airship incident has nothing to do with him. I knew it was all that damn Rocket Team's fault..."
Konoha also nodded and said, "I suspected him before, and I was wrong to do so. Fang Yuan is a good person."
