At two o'clo the afternoon, on the way tonite Isnd, Naoki rode atourning his head to g Koraidon, who was still lying fortably on his shoulder. He couldn't help but feel a little speechless.

  The sea breeze gently blew against his face.

  Before long, small heads began to pop out from the backpack strapped to Naoki's chest. Alcremie, G, Cyclizar, and Butterfree huddled together, eagerly watg the se ahead.

  "Are you really not going to return to normal size?" Naoki asked, looking down at the tiny Pokémon in front of him.

  Earlier, after seeing what Koraidon had dohe other Pokémon decided to shrink themselves too, ging to Naoki like tiny passengers. When they heard he was heading tonite Isnd, their faces lit up with excitement, and they insisted on ing along.

  Left with no choiaoki had asked his Gogoat to guard the rand brought the rest of the Pokémon with him on this little adventure.

  As they flew over the vast, sparkling o, all the Pokémon gazed down at the blue expanse below, their eyes twinkling with amazement.

  It was their first time seeing the sea sihey had grown up.

  Pawmo whispered softly, "Pawmo." (How beautiful.)

  G's icy eyes reflected the shimmering o, wide with wonder. It had never imagined such a sight existed—beyond the snowy mountains and icebergs, there was a whole world out there, full of grandeur and warmth.

  Cyclizar, who had grown up in a small town before ing to live on the ranch, shared the same feelings. 'This is so beautiful! Even more beautiful than the moon, Dragonite sees!' it thought, eyes wide with awe.

  "Mree." (Wow.) Alcremie's eyes sparkled with happy tears, overwhelmed by the beauty around her.

  Naoki was about to say something wheiced the looks on his Pokémon's faces. Smiling to himself, he thought, 'Let's make this a fun afternoon for them!'

  Dragorue to its nature, flew fast, and soon they arrived at Dragonite Isnd.

  Landing in the ter of the isnd, Dragonite's sharp eyes spotted several Dratini and Dragonair pying in the ke. As soon as they saw Dragonite and Naoki arriving, their eyes lit up, and they leaped out of the water to greet them.

  Dragonite, pleased, thought they were ing to greet it. After all, it had helped take care of these Dragonair and Dratini back when it lived on the isnd, often bringing them fruit to eat.

  Feeling proud, Dragonite spread its arms, ready to embrace its old friends.

  But in the moment, the group of Dratini and Dragonair ran right past Dragonite, heading straight for Naoki instead!

  Dragonite's eyes widened in shock. Furious, it poi the group and yelled, "Awooo!" (How rude!)

  In a huff, Dragonite rushed over, ing its arms protectively around Naoki in front of the others, trying to show them that Naoki was 'its' good partner and trainer, and not theirs.

  The Dragonair and Dratini bli Dragonite, unimpressed by its childish behavior. One of the Dratini even stuck out its tongue, making a face.

  Dragonite: !!!

  Naoki: "…"

  Naoki patted Dragonite's cw with a sigh. "Alright, calm down. Remember, we're here to take care of some important busioday."

  Dragonite, realizing it had gotten carried away, relutly released Naoki.

  Naoki opened his backpack, gently pg Alcremie, Butterfree, Pawmo, G, and Cyclizar on the ground, letting them run off to py with the Dratini and Dragonair on the isnd.

  Meanwhile, Naoki, Dragonite, and Koraidon headed towards the cliffside.

  Standing by the cliff, looking down at the crashing waves below, Naoki turo Koraidon and asked, " you dive?"

  Koraidon looked a bit embarrassed: "Raao." (I swim, but I 't stay uer for long.)

  Naoki smiled knowingly. "I figured as much. In that case, you wait for us here on the shore. We won't be long."

  Koraidon didn't try to insist or act cute to vinaoki. It hen obediently hopped off his shoulder, returning to its normal size and standing wat the cliff.

  Naoki waved goodbye to Koraidon before pulling out a diving suit from his space backpack. After putting it on, he helped Dragonite dive into the clear blue sea.

  Led by Dragohey swam swiftly toward the o floor beh Dragonite Isnd.

  Before long, they spotted it—the immense, sleeping figure restih the isnd's shadow.

  Naoki gently patted Dragonite's back, signaling for it to slow down.

  Dragonite nodded in uanding and swam toward the massive Dragonite. Letting out a soft, melodic cry, Dragonite began to call out to its slumbering terpart.

  One call, two calls, three…

  Just when Naoki thought the giant Dragonite was in too deep a sleep to hear them, the colossal Dragonite's eyes suddenly flickered open, revealing golden orbs. A wave of raw, powerful energy surged from the depths, making the o tremble.

  Both Naoki and Dragonite were momentarily stunned by the aura.

  But soon, the giant Dragonite restrais intimidating presence, blinking groggily as it focused on the smaller Dragonite and human before it. Its half-asleep gaze uzzled.

  "Roar?" A deep, rumbling sound emerged from its throat.

  Naoki gestured for his own Dragoo transte his iions.

  After a brief exge, the giant Dragonite looked over, curious.

  Naoki pointed upwards, signaling that they should head to the surface to talk.

  The giant Dragonite seemed to uand. Slowly, it rose from the o floor, its colossal body stirring the water with immense power.

  The sudden rush of currents startled Naoki and Dragonite, and they were nearly swept away. But before they could be carried off by the powerful undersea currents, a massive dragon cw scooped them up, lifting them out of the water and onto the surface.

  Naoki removed his oxygen mask, taking a deep breath. At that moment, Koraidon, who had been watg from the cliff, flew rabbing Naoki's backpad bringing it to him.

  Without saying muaoki rummaged through his backpad pulled out a pumpkin pie. He turo the giant Dragonite and asked, " you open your mouth?"

  The giant Dragonite plied, opening its enormous jaws, revealing a cavernous maw.

  Naoki hesitated briefly, swallowing nervously at the sight of the massive mouth. With a burst of effort, he threw the pumpkin pie inside.

  Given the sheer size of the giant Dragonite, Naoki wondered if the tiny pumpkin pie would have any effect at all.

  "Try thinking about being smaller," Naoki suggested tentatively.

  The giant Dragonite closed its mouth, pting the idea.

  And then, something magical happened.

  The once-mountainous Dragonite began to shrink, its size decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Within moments, it had reduced to a normal-sized Dragonite.

  Thankfully, Naoki had been prepared. He quickly hopped ontonite's back before the transformation finished, ensuring he wouldn't fall.

  Looking at the nur-sized Dragonite, Naoki asked in amazement, "How do you feel?"

  "Roar!" The Dragoill astonished by its own transformatio out a joyful cry. It examis smaller body and gnced around at the familiar yet now much rger surroundings.

  At that moment, the other Dragonites onite Isnd noticed what was happening. Seeing the once-huge Dragonite now shrunk to their size, they hurried athering around in surprise and awe.
