The two were stunned.

  They had imagined tless possibilities in their minds.

  For example, the Dragonite could have lost trol and e to attack human cities, or it could have been angered by human fishing and e to punish people.

  But they never sidered this possibility.

  After a brief moment of shock, the two couldn't help but ask, "Who is that panion?"

  Gardevoir replied, "It’s a Dragohat lives with humans."

  'What?'

  Geeta and Tulip were slightly stunned but quickly realized: 'This powerful, giant Dragonite had e here to look for its panion. If they could find the human and the Drago mentioned, would the giant Dragonite leave peacefully?'

  Thinking of this, Geeta asked, "Does it know the name of the human?"

  Gardevoir responded, "It said it 't remember."

  Geeta and Tulip: "..."

  This couldn’t really be bmed on the giant Dragonite.

  After learning from Mew and the Baby Bear (Teddiursa) that it had panions in this region, it rushed over without paying attention to the other details provided by Teddiursa.

  Although Mew had telepathically unicated the route to Paldea, this was still too difficult fonite, who had been asleep for tless years.

  Moreover, the route was fragmented and unclear, and this world was too unfamiliar. As a result, it had gotten lost several times before finally arriving here.

  It only khat one of its panions was in the Paldea region, living with a human.

  As Gardevoir reyed this informatioa and Tulip exged gnces, both with a big question in their minds.

  'Who was that person?'

  'What kind of trainer, and what kind onite, could be panions with such a colossal and terrifying Pokémon?'

  After a brief sileulip asked, "What should we do?"

  Geeta couldn't help but pce her hand on her forehead. 'What is going on?' she thought.

  She sighed and said calmly, "Have Gardevoir try to vihis giant Dragoo wait here. We’ll go and help it find its panion."

  They did not want to engage in flict with this immensely powerful Pokémon.

  That seemed to be the best course of a for now.

  Tulip agreed with this pn. She nodded and told Gardevoir the proposal.

  Gardevoir nodded in aowledgment, theuro the giant Dragoo tinue unig.

  After a while, Gardevoir came back with the result.

  “It agreed.”

  Hearing this, both Geeta and Tulip breathed a sigh of relief.

  Thankfully, the giant Dragonite was still rational and willing to unicate.

  Now, all that was left was to find that human and his Dragonite.

  As long as they were found, this i could be resolved peacefully.

  After a brief moment of thought, Geeta, the Pokémon League President and top champion of the Paldea region gave an order through the inter:

  "tact all the major TV stations and inform the reporters and media to broadcast this i. We o find that trainer as soon as possible!"

  Officer Jenny, who was stationed on the shore, replied solemnly, "Yes!"

  ————

  While there was a stir in the Paldea region, the atmosphere at Naoki’s ranch remained peaceful.

  At six o’clo the m, the old-fashioned clo the wall chimed.

  Naoki opened his eyes, greeted the Pokémon around him, got dressed, and began his day.

  After washing up, Naoki hummed a little tune as he went to prepare sandwiches for the Pokémon.

  The Alcremie on the ter hadn’t woken up yet and sleepily bli Naoki.

  Naoki gently patted its head, his hands covered in the smell of butter: "You sleep a little longer."

  "Mree~" The Alcremie closed its eyes agailing in for a m nap.

  The ranch was always full of activity at dawn.

  The Gogoats gathered eagerly in front of the trough, mung away on the grass dumplings.

  Dolliv was enjoying the gentle sunshine.

  G hopped down from the icy stone and strolled to the grassy patch outside, shaking its body with a look of fort and pea its face.

  Meanwhile, bee and Butterfree were happily drinking the m dew from the flower field, which was filled with the fragrance of blooming flowers.

  Pawmo flew over to the chi coop, opehe door, and herded the hens inside.

  Koraidon, Dragonite, and Cyclizar stretched their bodies, rexing before starting to py around the ranch.

  Alcremie in the cupboard could hear the happy cries from outside and couldn’t tinue sleeping anymore.

  Frustrated, it jumped down from the cupboard, intending to scold the three big Pokémon for making so muoise.

  While preparing breakfast, he turned around and reminded, "Oh, by the way, Alcremie, could you grab the Poké Balls of Nacli and Naclstack from the desk ahem out for a bit of fresh air?"

  Relutly, Alcremie climbed up to the desk, gathered the Poké Balls, a outside with five of them.

  As soon as the Poké Balls hit the grass, they grew rger and released bright light, revealing the figures of Naclstad Nacli.

  Seeing them, Alcremie's irritation faded, and the small group quickly started pying a game of stag the salt stones in the pasture.

  Making sandwiches was simple, and soon enough, Naoki had more than a dozen of them ready. He id them out oable and grabbed some tree juice, Moo Moo Milk, and Poffins from the fridge.

  "Time to eat!" Naoki called out.

  In no time, all the Pokémon gathered eagerly around the table, big and small, each grabbing a sandwich to devour.

  Watg them eat so happily, Naoki’s oetite grew.

  He switched oV before sitting down to enjoy his meal.

  The TV ying the m news from the Paldea region, but Naoki wasn’t paying much attention. He was busy pig the hay crumbs off Pawmo's fur.

  However, one partiews report caught his attention:

  "Yesterday m, a fishing boat discovered a giant sea beast. Upon iigation, it was revealed to be a colossal Dragoanding over 40 meters tall!"

  "We are unsure where it inated from, but our chief champioa, along with Tulip, the Alfornada Gym Leader, are currently trying to iate with the Dragonite."

  The s then cut to a shot of Geeta, the chief champion of the Paldea League.

  Geeta, looking much youhan usual, around her early twenties, appeared serious. Her voice was steady and calm as she addressed the viewers:

  "We've discovered the reason behind this giant Dragonite's presen the Paldea region. It has e here in search of a panion."

  "If any trainers onites reize this Dragonite, please head to the west coast of Paldea, near Cauldron Lake, as soon as possible. It’s waiting for you there."
