The same special rock no longer existed, so, the Rock Tablet containing the essence of rock was the only choice.
Even the Holy Ash of Ho-Oh couldn't perfectly solve the problem.
"Regirock..." Kamon's expression grew dim.
"Right, repairing Regirock shouldn't damage the tablet, right?" Fang Yuan looked at the King of Holy Pillar, that was what mattered the most.
Of course, Fang Yuan also knew he was asking the obvious, since using the tablet to create the Punishment Pot that sealed Hoopa hadn't damaged the tablet, simply repairing the Rock God Column definitely wouldn't be an issue either.
"Ki—ka—!" The King of Holy Pillar nodded, using just a small part of the tablet's power would be enough, without any impact.
"Then it's very simple, Chairman Damaranche, you heard it too... Look, just give me the tablet first... Let Sir Shinto use it for a bit, and save Uncle Shinto the worry," Fang Yuan said.
"Ah, this..." Chairman Damaranche and President Loz were stunned for a moment, the contest hadn't even ended yet, and here you are asking for the Champion's reward, quite presumptuous.
"I'll end up with it eventually anyway," Fang Yuan muttered under his breath.
Kamon also fell silent for a moment, damn, that actually made sense, but at the same time, he felt grateful towards Fang Yuan.
Although he had considered asking others for the tablet if he couldn't obtain it himself before the King of Holy Pillar decided to help him in battle, now that Fang Yuan was voluntarily offering help, it was something he deeply appreciated.
"As for the tablet, it is currently jointly managed by the Presidents' Alliance made up of the alliance's chairmen, but... I am thinking of giving it to you in advance; I suppose the others probably wouldn't have any objections... right, I can't stand it anymore," Chairman Damaranche said, scratching his head in discomfort.
This was basically fixing the winner in advance, wasn't it?
But the truth is, indeed, no one could stop Fang Yuan now, not when Mewtwo had shown up.
They never should've made this thing the Champion's prize from the get-go!
Now every Tom, Dick, and Harry had shown up.
Of course, if this hadn't been set as the reward, perhaps not as many Trainers would have joined the contest.
It was a double-edged sword.
"Naturally, I have no objections... Sir Shinto needs the tablet for his Pokémon, and even if Danti ends up being the Champion, he would surely lend it to Sir Shinto. Every Trainer shares this love for Pokémon," President Loz said, still hoping Danti would win the championship.
"Thanks," Fang Yuan thanked Chairman Damaranche and President Loz.
Especially Uncle Loz.
"By the way, President Loz, if you ever have any ambitious individuals in Galar trying to use Legendary Pokémon to change the world, please let me know, I'll definitely help out, and I'll make sure they truly experience the warmth of home."
"I'm very good at this," he added.
"..." Loz.
"Thank you," Loz's heart skipped a beat, suspecting Fang Yuan might know of his plans.
Surely not, though.
...
Noon.
It was the battle between Hirona and Du.
But before that, people were still talking about Fang Yuan.
The identity of Mewtwo, everyone knew.
Doctor Fuji had announced it, the secret research project of Rocket Team, a fighting machine Pokémon; why then would it be with Fang Yuan????
What relation did Fang Yuan have with Rocket Team????
As everyone was curious about the story behind Fang Yuan and Mewtwo,
Heavenly King Ke Na of the Kanto region stood up to reveal another world-shocking piece of news.
"The true nature of the Orange Archipelago disaster????"
The Orange Archipelago incident is probably most fresh in the minds of Trainers from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and the Sinnoh Region.
Due to the abnormal climate of the Orange Archipelago, the weather around the entire world underwent drastic changes, with these four regions being the most severely affected.
At that time, the disaster in the Orange Archipelago, broadcast globally, was speculated by a host of climatologists to be an enormous disaster that could potentially lead to world destruction.
Thankfully, the disaster was eventually quelled in time by Ho-Oh and Lugia.
Within the truth about the disaster revealed by the Quartz Alliance.
Brief text was also accompanied by several images.
Compared to the previously circulated blurry images, this time the pictures were incredibly clear.
It was a scene where Fang Yuan rode upon Ho-Oh, assisting Ho-Oh to combat the frenzy of the Three Divine Birds!
"Besides being the hero who saved Alamos Town and stopped the Temporal and Spatial dragons, as well as the hero who saved Castelia City and repelled Thundurus, Fang Yuan is also the hero who saved the Orange Archipelago. Recognized by Ho-Oh as the Brave of the Rainbow, he summoned Ho-Oh and calmed the rage of the Three Divine Birds."
"In the disaster of the Orange Archipelago, Mewtwo also played an indelible role, using its Superpower to isolate the battle's Wave Motion, preventing the global disaster predicted by scholars from truly happening. They are still the heroes who saved the world."
"In addition to this, Fang Yuan is also the real mastermind behind the dismantling of the vast underground organization—Rocket Team—that spanned several regions!"
The Unova Plasma Team and the Shinnoh Galaxy Team were both dismantled with Fang Yuan's assistance.
"Damn."
Every single word left the Trainers who saw the Quartz Alliance's announcement astounded.
Ho-Oh?!
They gazed at the figure of Ho-Oh in the photo and the Trainer riding it, eyes wide open.
"The Orange Archipelago incident was also resolved by Fang Yuan?"
"The Brave of the Rainbow??"
"How is this possible, what exactly is his background?"
Originally, everyone thought they were gradually understanding Fang Yuan due to the disclosures of the Alamos Town and Castelia City events, but as this truth came out, people realized they understood Fang Yuan even less.
"What else has he done?"
With the truth further fermenting, even more people started to recognize Fang Yuan.
Legendary Trainer, hero—numerous titles were bestowed upon Fang Yuan.
Erika of the Rainbow Dojo, the Karate King Wu De, Lt. Surge of Vermilion City Gym, Galar's genius Fighting-type Trainer Colored Bean, God Beast Man Tobias, and Galar's strongest Gym Leader Qibana, all stared dumbfounded at the news, completely unanticipated that the Trainer who had defeated them had such extraordinary background and had done such heart-stirring deeds.
The internet was engulfed by a tidal wave of attention, with countless eyes converging on the championship.
The championship was already quite popular, but now, due to Fang Yuan, even ordinary people who did not follow Pokemon battles were focused on it.
While preparing for battle, Du and Hirona, looking at the explosive world news about Fang Yuan, found Hirona was okay, but Du was in great pain, remembering the encounter at the Rainbow Dojo with Fang Yuan and his Eevee.
Who would have thought that after the Orange Archipelago incident this guy would stir up such huge news one after another.
"Next up, facing Hirona in battle, lose and it's a one-day trip out of the elimination round, win and I'll have to face that guy Fang Yuan, and possibly Mewtwo..."
Right now, Du was in a terrible mood.
Of course, Hirona wasn't feeling too great either. Although she feared no opponent, just the thought of Mewtwo...
...she had no battle experience whatsoever!
Both decided to go all out in the upcoming match when suddenly, they received a message from Fang Yuan.
[Fang Yuan: Go, go, go! Fight with peace of mind, I promise I won't send out Mewtwo in the next match, I'm a good friend, right! (smile) (smile) (smile)]
Both: "..."
This bastard... still can't let anyone feel at ease.
