Chapter 117: Mewtwo's Doubt
"Cameran Palace..."
Hearing Aisha's words, Steven also showed a thoughtful expression.
"What's wrong?"
Aisha inquired to Steven who had a contemplative look on his face and said, "You know about this place?"
"Of course."
Steven also responded decisively to Aisha.
"Well... Indeed."
Aisha also realized that it was he who was stupid.
As the former Champion of the Hoenn Region, Steven must have traveled through several regions in his youth for travel and refinement before he possessed the strength and status he had today - of course, the current Steven was just as young, and could be called the brightest star in the world of trainers and business.
The Cameran Palace was a bit of a remote location.
However, it certainly wasn't a poor town, simply just not much of an existence.
A little bit of inquiring would reveal that there was such a place in the Kanto region.
"If there is no mistake in my memory, that city should be located north of Pewter City and Mt. Moon in the Kanto region."
"Right."
After his memory was confirmed by Aisha, Steven also showed a nostalgic expression.
"I once passed through that city when I was traveling in the Kanto region." Steven slightly told the story of what he experienced while traveling, saying, "At that time, I didn't have the awesome strength that I have now over here, let's just say that I was a fledgling kid, and that unique architectural style and humanistic feelings of Cameran Palace was really unforgettable, and since the city's representative Pokémon was the steel and fighting type Lucario, I even bred a Lucario in the back specifically."
Thinking of the mighty aura warrior, Steven sighed again.
"Unfortunately, Lucario doesn't suit my sparring style too well, so that means this Pokémon isn't within the main team right now."
"Oh~"
Aisha also showed an expression of relief.
He also vaguely remembered that the design prototype of Cameran Palace was Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, Germany, and this one was just as much a prototype of Disney Castle.
"The person in charge of that city should be a 'queen' like character, and there are 'knights' on top of the streets as well, very interesting."
"As if it's medieval..."
Aisha also echoed Steven's words.
"However, I didn't hear about the existence of the Tree of Beginning at that time."
"If you're interested, let's make a trip towards Cameran Palace after I'm done with this time." After that, Steven also saw Aisha's interest in that city, so he said that he took the initiative to open his mouth and said, "Not entirely for the matter of the Three Pillars, but it might be better for the trip to see a place that's different from the modern city, and to change your mood a little."
"Good."
Steven smiled.
"Oh!"
As if he suddenly remembered something, Steven tapped the keyboard and browsed through some information before saying, "In honor of that 'Aura Guardian' Sir Aaron, who saved the Cameran Palace in the legend, a ball is held over there once a year to honor the victor, and the hilarity and importance the locals attach to it is no less than that of a traditional festival. It's no less lively and valued by the locals than a traditional festival."
"That I also know."
Aisha's fingers rubbed his chin.
"There seems to be a sparring festival over there as well."
"Right."
Within his memory, Ash had won this battle festival, and the Queen herself had awarded him the title of 'Aura Guardian' and Sir Aaron's scepter, so much so that Lucario, who had slept within the scepter for a long time, sensed a aura frequency that was exactly equal to Sir Aaron, ended his slumber, and began the "
However, when it comes to Lucario, Aisha is also a bit emotional.
This is the only Pokémon within the main character Pokémon of the theatrical version that is not a Legendary Pokémon.
With a good reputation and handsome appearance, Lucario has been famous ever since.
It even acquired Mega Evolution in the sixth generation and soared to the top.
On the contrary, Zoroark, as the official Pokémon pushed to mimic Lucario's success, ended up completely failing to replicate the dog's breathtakingly high popularity.
Amazing.
At the same time, Lucario was one of the few Pokémon that could utilize the energy of 'Aura', a portion of energy, with ease.
"I looked at the time."
Steven flipped through the calendar.
"After I'm done with the things piling up on my hands, it's almost time for the event held in Cameran Palace, so I'll head to the Kanto region to find you to go to that city together, and find out if that Tree of Beginning really exists."
"I'm in no hurry."
Aisha waved his hand.
Anyway, Ash was needed to start the plot.
There was no telling when Ash could have caught up with his progress.
"Oh, right."
Aisha opened the Poké ball of shiny Metang, and the one that had completed its evolution with a glittering steel body as bright as the moon, and appeared within Steven's line of sight.
"This child, evolved!"
"Oh~"
Steven also gazed at shiny Metang in a rather stunning manner.
In particular, its body was dazzling as if it was shrouded in a layer of moonlight all the time.
"It's so beautiful, worthy of being cultivated by Instructor Ai!"
Steven gave a thumbs up.
Aisha had the heart to explain.
However, after considering that the matter was a bit complicated, he finally closed his mouth.
"This is a fossil." Aisha yanked out a bag of fossils from the side and showed it to Steven, saying, "A considerable portion of them should possess the possibility of resurrection, Devon Co has machines for firming and resurrecting fossils, after you're done resurrecting them pick a Kabuto and Omanyte to give to me, I'll give it to Misty as a gift, and keep the other Pokémon for your own cultivation, fossils that don't have the chance of being resurrected are also not bad to have as a collection. "
"Hey, still you understand me!"
As soon as he saw the fossil, Steven's eyes instantly turned into shining bulbs.
However, Steven's self-control was obviously very strong, and even though the fossils mesmerized his eyes, he didn't get much greedy, instead, he revealed a serious expression and said, "However, even a blood brother is clear on his accounts, so I'll just pay you according to the normal price of a fossilized Pokémon and fossilized collectible, with no middleman earning a difference in price."
"Good, I don't quite understand this business, I'm relieved that you're in charge."
Aisha was very relieved of Steven's character.
Steven made an "OK" gesture.
"When we head towards Cameran Palace, if it's a coincidence that the time is right, I'll introduce you to a senior mythologist, it just so happens that she's a bit interested in you as well."
"Who?"
"Confidential." Steven sold a secret and said, "Alright, I know you're a bit busy over there, so I won't delay Instructor Ai!"
Steven hung up the video.
Aisha, on the other hand, fell into deep thought.
"Senior Mythologist..."
There weren't many people within the Pokémon series who held this profession.
Especially those who were so good that Steven was willing to travel with them were even rarer.
That person's identity was already calling out.
"The future form of Lookout!"
Champion of the Sinnoh region, Cynthia.
The classic goddess of the Pokémon series.
With a high face value, good figure, and strong combat power, she could be described as a dazzling and dangerous existence like a Valkyrie.
"Aye~"
Aisha sighed.
There seem to be more big guys he know...
However, the fossil was all sold to Steven, and his own slightly dry wallet was instantly infused with a whole new wave of energy that Aisha could wave again.
Also...
[System Quest: Collect the badges of the eight gyms in the Kanto region.]
[Quest Progress: 2/8.]]
[Quest Reward: Key Stone, any Mega Evolution Stone of your choice.]
The progress of the quest advanced by one frame.
Aisha was one step closer to the shiny Mega Metagross.
Well, Mega Charizard Y was very powerful.
So that's why Aisha chose the shiny Mega Metagross.
There wasn't any other reason.
Handsome is always a thing.
Besides, Mega Metagross were just as not weak.
"I'm afraid that the Mega Evolution Stone of Mega Metagross has been treasured to a degree." Aisha also chanted about Mega Evolution Stones and said, "In the future, Mega Charizard Y's Evolution Stone might be collected, but I'm afraid that even Steven doesn't have a second Mega Evolution Stone for Mega Metagross."
The rarity was just as much the reason why Aisha chose Mega Metagross.
If you miss this village, there might not be this store again.
"Good!"
Aisha clapped his hands together, startling Rotom phone.
"Instructor Ai..."
"Little Ro student, let's buy something!"
"Good!"
Rotom phone was instantly energized.
It didn't need Aisha to say anything, it also immediately opened the website for shopping and said, "Instructor Ai, what are we buying?"
"Your portable microwave."
Aisha's response made Rotom phone a little more surprised.
"And the full set of 'Protect', 'Substitute', and 'Toxic' technical machine for me."
Aisha read up the configuration of the children equipped.
"Charmeleon is developing towards the special attacker route, and fire type moves are more than enough, so arrange 'Hurricane', 'Solar Beam', 'Dragon Pulse', 'Focus Blast', and 'Roost'.
"That stupid kid Eevee thought I didn't know it liked Umbreon as a form, buy 'Thunder Wave' and 'Taunt' and save it for after evolving.
"Although there are many moves that Meatng can learn on its own now, except for 'Bullet Punch' and 'Meteor Mash', the others are of little use. Let's arrange the 'Earthquake' technical machine. We will do it at the Pokémon Club later. Hire Pokémon Club to teach him how to learn 'Thunder Punch' and 'Ice Punch'... Oh, take away 'Explosion' technical machine if you want, and be careful not to hide it from Metang for the time being.
"Marill's skill pool is too shallow for poor moves, arrange for 'Ice Punch' and forget about it."
These technical machine were completely sufficient to support them for the coming period of time.
Once the children became proficient in these key moves, Aisha's team's strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
"Caterpie doesn't occupy the normal team's grid after it evolves into a Rayquaza in the future, or else I'll take in a Ghastly to supplement the striking surface inside the team?"
Aisha calculated the last Pokémon to be arranged within a team under normal circumstances.
"Forget it, Ghastly aren't that easy to take in, let's just go with it."
Shaking his head, Aisha also revealed a smile.
The feeling of going on a shopping spree after making money was fantastic.
"Instructor Ai, I've already placed an order for all the technical machines you need."
"Good."
The League's courier speed was very fast, almost arriving the next day, so that Aisha wasn't in a hurry, the courier's transportation couldn't delay his trip.
The challenge of the Cerulean Gym was also over.
The thing that should be busy now was Jasmine's commission.
"Off to work!"
Aisha burrowed back into Misty's house and nestled within the guest room he was staying in to tinker with Pokéblock.
Anyway, the live broadcast of Cerulean Gym's Gym Challenge was already enough to deal with the water users.
It didn't matter even if it wasn't live-streamed properly for a while.
He had performed such a wonderful live broadcast for everyone, and taking a break was certainly forgivable by his water friends...
"Whew, done!"
It was late at night when Aisha finally stopped operating the Berry Blender.
The high-speed rotating Berry Blender also gradually stopped moving.
A few transparent Pokéblocks that shimmered with a silver-white luster fell into the container, and next to them were already five Pokéblocks that were similar in appearance, with some surprising details.
"Good."
Aisha packed up the six copies of Pokéblock and filled the container, after which a small note with the corresponding Pokémon's name was pasted on top of the box.
Instructor Ai didn't eat today: "The samples have been made, I'll send them your way tomorrow."
Magnemite is the cutest: "Okay, thanks so much."
Jasmine replied to Aisha's message almost in seconds.
"Uh-huh."
Regulating the goods, Aisha put away the Berry Blender.
If Jasmine's Pokémon were satisfied, she herself could continue making Pokéblocks for long-term provision.
"Is there any suitable place for brushing monsters near Cerulean City..."
Leaning back on top of the chair, Aisha also pondered about exercising.
"Wait a minute, there really is a place." Aisha's expression changed as he remembered a venue and said, "Cerulean Cave..."
His expression was a bit gloomy.
Cerulean Cave, within the game, was a venue that players could only enter if they had become League Champions.
The First-level Legendary, Mewtwo, was waiting at the end of the cave.
"Hiss... Mewtwo?"
Aisha wasn't quite sure what the situation of Mewtwo was in this world.
According to the plot of the special manga, Mewtwo was probably in Red's Poké ball by now.
According to the plot of the theatrical anime, Mewtwo was still in the research stage now.
"The setting conflict is too much to handle."
Aisha was also puzzled.
However, the matter of Mewtwo was not something he needed to agonize over right now.
...
At the end of Cerulean Cave, a Pokémon opened its eyes.
"A familiar scent..."
With a flash, this Pokémon with a humanoid stance appeared outside the cave and floated above the sky, its eyes gazing north of Mt. Moon.
"Mew."
It didn't care much about Mew.
After that, it looked in the direction of Celadon City.
"..."
It frowned.
It detected an aura in that direction that was more familiar, even homologous, compared to Mew as well.
Although it was only a flash.
Yet it still captured the presence of that aura.
"..."
It prepared to head to Celadon City to see what was going on.

There are really three versions of Mewtwo
The special manga is the one created by Blaine
The theatrical version of the animation is the creation of Team Rocket.
The information in the first-generation game is extremely vague, and the issue of birth jumps repeatedly between genetic cloning and Mew biological life. The researcher is Mr. Fuji from the Lavender Town
