Thursday, May 13.
The summer night was cool, with tree shadows swaying as cicadas chirped like tiny monks.
Morning rain had left the soil damp—perfect for planting berries.
Returning home after so long, Natsume collapsed onto the soft bed, rolled over, then sat up.
"Still work to do," Natsume muttered. "Supplies are running low. Need to make more Pokéblocks."
The biggest harvest from Michina Town was Arceus's symbol of strength—The Power of One.
The Po...

The warm summer breeze blew past, yet Natsume couldn't suppress a shiver.
"Blastoise... learning your Ice-type moves?"
Pryce sat in his wheelchair, giving Natsume a sidelong glance.
"Weren't you researching hail strategies?"
The old man had heard from Professor Oak about Natsume's expertise in snow-based tactics.
Back then, Pryce had dismissed the young man entirely.
But after this battle... his impression had shifted dramatically, even sparking a desire to...

The distant river of Michina Town glittered under the sunlight.
Regigigas stood dormant behind Natsume, like an ancient, colossal statue.
A gentle breeze swept across the wilderness, rustling the wheat fields—peaceful and full of life.
"So..."
Cynthia fell silent for a long moment after hearing about Natsume's exploits in the Hall of Origin.
"You actually fought Arceus head-on?"
"That was just an avatar."
Natsume looked up at the sky.
The fear...

Dun-dun~ dun-dun-dun~!
With the imagined sound effects playing, Arceus sighed helplessly, "You may leave now."
The great Creator actually having to work part-time as a medic? How absurd.
Natsume clipped the Dive Ball containing Blastoise back onto his belt, flashing a friendly smile.
"Arceus, we're friends!"
Arceus fell silent. This Natsume was completely different from the one during their battle earlier.
But after all, he was the Messenger it had chosen, ...

The restored temple stood grand and solemn, drifting with specks of shimmering light.
"Senior Gold, that was so cool!" Ash's eyes sparkled.
Gold, pool cue slung over his shoulder, wiped his nose smugly. "Well, I’ve always been cool, haha!"
Back during the decisive battle in Ilex Forest, Gold had once fallen into chaotic spacetime before being revived by Celebi.
For Gold, "dying" was just part of the routine!
It was precisely this fearless courage in the face of...

Natsume's coat fluttered in the wind as he raised his head to gaze at Arceus, its halo blazing brightly.
It hovered in the sky, eyes brimming with anger and sorrow, silently watching this insignificant human.
In Natsume's mind echoed the prophecy of the parallel-world Arceus.
His time-crossing actions had earned him one final chance.
Proof... A chance for humans and Pokémon to trust one another.
The wind swept through the crumbling ancient ruins.

The sky roared with thunder.
Arceus hovered midair, its body radiating blinding light as countless beams of judgment gathered around it.
Then—Judgment rained down like a storm!
Debris exploded as Giratina shielded Natsume and the others with its massive body, its hellish wings spread wide.
Gale-force winds howled. Fire and destruction erupted in waves. Giratina let out a pained screech!
Arceus’s gaze remained unwavering. Space rippled around it.

The battlefield fell into eerie silence.
Dialga and Palkia stood facing each other, while Giratina hovered high above with wings spread.
The Sinnoh Trio formed a triangular formation, their gazes fixed on the calm trainer standing before the spatial rift.
Natsume: "Please give me some face!"
Simultaneously, the same thought arose in the minds of the three deities.
Alamos Town...the Gracidea Sea...those shared memories bound them to this human.

Facing the murderous Delibird, Natsume immediately backed down.
"Gengar," Natsume called over his shoulder, "treat our guest to some candy!"
"Gengar~ ta-da!"
The overly friendly Gengar pulled out a glass jar from its pocket, popping the cork with a flourish. The moment the lid came off, a dazzling golden glow erupted from the bottle.
Unown, Silver, and the others all froze in shock.
Delibird, still clutching its delivery bag, sniffed the air, its expression turni...

Above the rolling peaks of Mount Coronet in the Sinnoh region, a Garchomp soared through the sky.
The May holiday had just ended, and Cynthia was preparing to return to Celestic Town to visit her grandmother, Professor Carolina.
"Back to work right after the break," Cynthia murmured with a light sigh, though her tone carried no urgency. She stood gracefully atop Garchomp’s back, poised and regal.
"Garchomp!" Garchomp glanced back at her.

May 8th, Saturday.
A cool drizzle drifted through the sky, sending ripples across the ocean’s surface.
Natsume stood on the ship’s deck, his black tousled hair ruffled by the sea breeze as his shirt fluttered at the edges.
“Up ahead is Olivine City, in the Johto Region.”
Natsume lifted his gaze toward Gengar, who levitated beside him, and pointed into the distance. “See that? That’s Olivine’s Lighthouse.”
“Gengar!” Gengar stretched his eyelids...

The early summer air remained pleasantly cool.
Today marked the first day after the Labor Day holiday.
Pokémon had already become a cultural phenomenon.
As more players discovered the Easter Egg, Natsume-sensei's in-game avatar grew increasingly iconic.
"Now THIS is what I call a 'balanced' Champion!"
"Natsume-sensei cheats... but not enough to ruin the fun."
"Worth every penny! The dream team of licensed characters delivers!"

Pokémon launched on the ORAS platform right on schedule.
Many of Devon Corporation’s overtime staff had specifically requested time off.
Just so they could clear a full day to go home and enjoy the game properly.
Built on Pokémon Company’s reputation and featuring guest appearances by Professor Oak, Red, and Blue Oak, the game had maximized its hype to the extreme.
The pre-release buzz rivaled even that of a certain high-profile cyberpunk ...

The villa in Saffron City was Natsume's former residence in the Kanto region.
Indeedees from the cleaning service came regularly, so cleanliness wasn't an issue.
"Blastoise...ヾ(■_■)" Blastoise blocked Natsume's hand from opening the door.
Even in familiar surroundings, one must never let their guard down, Natsume!
Natsume was in a delicate mood, but still allowed Blastoise to conduct a full scan before striding into the room.

The Sinnoh Region is a vast island surrounded by sea.
For traveling to Kanto, aside from flying, ships are the best option.
Natsume mentioned in the chat group whether anyone was heading to Kanto and could accompany him.
Ash said regretfully, “Pikachu and I are training for the Lily of the Valley Conference, so we can’t go back to Kanto right now…”
Maylene, with a band-aid on her nose, sighed softly. “I’m free, but I can’t go either…”

The friendly battle with Gold ended without much drama.
After four Poké Balls dimmed in quick succession (scratch that...), Gold expressed his desire to learn Rain Team strategies.
Natsume paused. "But your Politoed’s Ability is Water Absorb, isn’t it?"
Gold countered, "Can’t I manually set up rain?"
Natsume fell into deep thought at that.
Manually stealing weather control… Maybe Gold was playing 4D chess all along.
It was worth noting that Gold ha...

His opponent? None other than the World Champion, hailed as "the Strategist who conquered the tournament scene!"
In the finals between Leon and Lance, Leon had turned the tide with his Charizard’s Thunder Punch, overpowering Lance’s Red Gyarados before sealing victory with G-Max Wildfire.
Whether it was his bond with Pokémon or his tactical genius as a Trainer, Leon stood at the pinnacle.

Returning to Sandgem Town, Natsume stared at the completely renovated villa.
It felt like receiving the keys to a brand-new home.
"No more eating the house this time!"
Natsume scolded Larvitar. "If you're hungry, tell Gengar—it's stocked up on minerals."
"Larvitar~" Larvitar bowed deeply, its green blunt horn tilting forward, tiny claws pressed against red scales.
The apology seemed sincere, but Natsume knew better—
He recalled his elementary school tea...

One day had passed since Sunyshore Gym's open tournament.
Footage from the event was already trending across major video platforms, drawing countless viewers.
In this open tournament, Volkner—hailed as "Sinnoh's Strongest Leader"—had only awarded badges to three individuals:
Natsume-sensei, Ash, and Tobias.
Of course, many believed Volkner's subsequent losses were due to Natsume-sensei defeating his main team earlier.
Natsume suspected Volkner had intentional...

Volkner narrowed his eyes, staring at the Arcanine on the battlefield, murmuring:
"Starting with Arcanine, huh..."
For a moment, his vision blurred—two young boys appeared before him. One with messy red hair, the other with short blond locks.
The two trained together, grew stronger side by side.
The red-haired boy marched toward the Victory Road, while the blond turned toward the Gym, endlessly facing weak challengers.
'Can't muster any excitement.'

The water's reflection showed a trainer riding past on his bike, the ding-ding-dang-dang of its bell ringing out as he splashed through puddles.

The fact that a near-total rebuild could be done in just a few days was beyond Natsume’s expectations.

Nighttime.
Silence enveloped everything.
Four hours had passed since Natsume caught Larvitar.
The Rotom alarm clock on the bedside table displayed 01:15 in glowing red digits.
Natsume lay fast asleep, lost in a dream of eating Alcremie’s cream to his heart’s content—
"Definitely a good dream," mused dream-Natsume. "But why do I keep seeing a flying mine just now?"
Suddenly, he remembered—he’d just caught a Larvitar.
This was a dream.
