After Yuga returned to the space, that Duskull which had been released by him was still there, circling around those glass covers that held its companions, but it could not do anything to the glass covers.
After Yuga arrived there, he released all the ghost-type Pokémon inside the glass covers. Those stronger ones had already escaped long ago when William invaded this place. The ones left locked inside the glass covers were all weak and small existences.
Having already taken the Keystone, Yuga then asked these Pokémon if they wanted to follow him. However, because of William, the ghost-type Pokémon were very cautious towards humans, so they hesitated in regard to Yuga's proposal.
On the one hand, because of the special ability inside Yuga's body, they felt close to him; on the other hand, because of Yuga's identity as a human, they felt afraid.
Since persuasion was fruitless, Yuga could only let Gengar and Mismagius come out to deal with them.
After Gengar, Mismagius, and the little ones talked for a while, nobody knew what they said to the little ones, but when Yuga saw the little ones again, they no longer had fear toward him, and expressed willingness to leave with Yuga.
However, the little ones seemed to admire Gengar and Mismagius very much, obeying them almost completely. In the end, Yuga had no choice but to let them all follow Gengar and Mismagius into the shadow space, which also conveniently saved Poké Balls.
After finishing the matter of the ghost-type Pokémon, this space no longer had anything worth lingering for, so Yuga brought William back to Apricorns Town.
On the way back to Apricorns Town, William woke up. After he learned that the Keystone had been obtained by Yuga, the look he gave Yuga was as if looking at a mortal enemy.
Unfortunately, Yuga completely did not take me seriously, which made me feel that the anger in my heart had no way to be vented, suffocating me until I wanted to explode on the spot.
I even attempted to escape, unfortunately it was impossible to succeed.
Yuga was taking William's large boat, which had been used to go out to sea, to return to Apricorns Town. Although William committed countless evils, the dock owner was innocent.
The large boat had been rented by William; it was still the dock owner's property. If it were lost, the one who would suffer losses would be the dock owner. So before Yuga went ashore, he went to the dock and returned the large boat to the dock owner.
When the dock owner saw Yuga escorting the battered William back, I asked with surprise about the reason, but Yuga disliked the trouble and did not explain to me in detail.
Before leaving the dock, Yuga directly took William to the Apricorns Town police station. After revealing his identity, he reported William's crimes to the local Officer Jenny and even handed over part of William's experiment data as evidence.
Whether it was abusing Pokémon or conducting illegal Pokémon experiments, both were enough for William to spend the rest of his life in prison.
With evidence conclusive, William could not argue even if he wanted to. Officer Jenny's filter of seeing him as a "reputable scholar in Apricorns Town" was completely shattered.
Officer Jenny organized people to search William's home, and sure enough, found many more pieces of evidence of his illegal crimes.
Natu witnessed the entire process of William's crimes being confirmed, and even acted as a "human witness." So when Yuga left Apricorns Town taking it along, its mood was like a sky that had been gloomy for a long time finally revealing the sun, incomparably bright and beautiful.
William received the punishment he deserved, and Natu would bid farewell to the past, and truly begin a new life.
After finishing the matter of Natu, Yuga did not stay in Sinnoh any longer, and directly took the aircraft back to Hoenn.
Several days later, at the airport of Verdanturf Town, Yuga boarded the aircraft together with Natu, carrying a happy and relaxed mood as he returned home. But just as he arrived at his home's front door, he discovered that at the door there was a group of Pokémon having a group fight.
The sides of the fight were Gothorita, Cubchoo, Pancham versus Gible, Dratini, Charmander, and Pumpkaboo.
All were his own Pokémon, uh… probably, because there was one Yuga seemed not to recognize.
Gothorita, Cubchoo, Pancham — those few were needless to say, they were all recognized.
Dratini and Charmander were exactly the children of Yuga's main Pokémon Charizard and Dragonite. Later when Yuga made a phone call back home, Duoduo had already opened the video call and let Yuga see them, so Yuga was already familiar.
But where did this Pumpkaboo come from? Could it be that it belonged to one of the employees outside of the shop?
Both sides were fighting very calmly… or rather, not calmly, Gible and the others were practically being pressed down and beaten on one side by Gothorita's group, there was no way, after all the others were younger, but their strength was already enough.
The surrounding crowd watching were more or less customers of the YoYo Day Care, because the way a bunch of big fellows were fighting really looked too hateful, so nobody stepped in to stop it, everyone just gathered around watching silently.
It could be seen that Gothorita's group had actually already held back their strength, otherwise that so-called battle, let's call it a battle for the sake of calling it one, would have already long since ended.
"Do are your u guys doing?"
Yuga's voice suddenly appeared. Gothorita shivered in fright, its movements paused for a moment, and then pretending to be casual it tossed the Gible it had been controlling with psychic power to one side, looked left and right, and said: "What, nothing, we just carefully playing around."
Yuga upon hearing this said: "Carefully playing around? You think I didn't see? You have only been at home for a few days? Do you already want to turn the heavens upside down or not?"
Hearing Yuga's scolding directed at Gothita, Gible scurried up in a flash, pointed at the "wounds" beneath its own body, and aggrievedly complained to Yuga.
Gothorita, hearing this, got a little angry, and pointing at Gible said: "He even wants to be the villain and complain first, right? Clearly it was him who came up for no reason to me saying he wanted to challenge me!"
The little marks under Gible's body could not even count as real injuries, if Yuga had not shown up, in just a short while they would already have healed.
Actually Yuga could guess even without asking that it was definitely Gible stirring up trouble.
Under Yuga's gaze, Gible's eyes dodged and flickered, and in the end it could only tell the truth.
Gible and Gothorita had no actual grudge, but in order to be able to take revenge, it had always been following behind its Dragonite Mother bitterly training. Because of its exceptional aptitude, its progress was indeed advancing rapidly.
As its strength rose quickly, Gible's mentality inevitably also changed somewhat. Add to this that not long ago Dratini and Charmander had been born, and Gible felt that as the older sister, its image had to be elevated higher, so in front of the two younger siblings it kept trying to display its own outstanding abilities.
Dratini and Charmander really did give face to Gible, from before their birth until now they had always been following behind Gible as if following right in front, calling "older sister" this and "older sister" that all day long, calling Gible's heart into being softened.
Don't look at the fact that those two big fellows had only just been born not too long ago, but when it came to praising people, they could easily speak out a whole basket of sweet words, and under their flattery, Gible gradually came to believe it really was capable.
So today Gible then took along its two younger siblings and blocked Gothita's group who had been preparing to go out, and the "battle" happened just like that.
Unfortunately Gible thought its own strength was invincible, but right after the very first clash it was pressed into the ground and rubbed by Gothorita.
It was exactly at that time that Yuga came back.
Yuga pinched Gible's shark fin and lifted it up, then without expression said to the big fellows: "All of you come back with me."
The big fellows thought Yuga was angry, so they obediently followed behind him.
Actually Yuga was not angry at all, he was thinking about the matter of Pumpkaboo.
Just now he had used the Insight ability to look at Pumpkaboo, and was surprised to discover that it was actually a purple potential Pokémon. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized Pumpkaboo's identity, and right now he was intending to go find Duoduo to confirm.
The crowd of onlookers, seeing the good show was over, could only disperse one after another.
The shop employees outside, seeing Yuga had returned, all greeted him one after another. Their own boss often went running outside and then suddenly came back again, to them this was already something they had long since gotten used to.
Yuga very easily found the busy Duoduo. Duoduo, seeing Yuga return, was very happy, and even complained that Yuga had not informed her in advance.
After verification, Yuga's guess was indeed wrong, Pumpkaboo was exactly the Pokémon that hatched from the Pokémon Egg that Celebi had sent to him.
Before that Pokémon Egg came into my hands, it had already been placed in the Haunted House Sub-Ecopark, and after just ending very soon, it was absorbing the life energy of the ghostly surroundings, its aura becoming more and more vigorous with each passing day, I even thought it would hatch very soon.
However, it did not.
It absorbed life energy without mistake, but it just did not hatch, having no choice Yuga sent it to Mewtwo there, and Mewtwo had also been researching it all along.
But it still did not hatch all along.
Mewtwo there also did not give Yuga any definite answer, time just passed like that, and because it was placed with Mewtwo for too long, Yuga had already forgotten about this Egg, never thinking that today he would suddenly see the Pokémon hatched outside.
It truly was completely without any preparation.
After confirming Pumpkaboo's identity, Yuga ended by rewarding a few of the big fellows who had fought, letting them all together help with housework, today it was decided not to go out again.
As soon as the big fellows heard it, they were immediately dejected beyond belief, especially Gothorita, who fiercely glared at Gible, and Gible was also not polite, glaring fiercely right back.
Yuga noticed the big actions between them, warning Gothorita with his gaze, at the same time giving a hard knock under Gible's head.
Gible covered his big head, jumped out of Yuga's embrace in embarrassment, and slipped away to go work, as for the thick-skinned Gothorita, it ran away grinning, and then called friends, wanting to do work always together with big companions.
Yuga stared at them working for a while, mainly observing Pumpkaboo, Dratini, and Charmander, those just born big fellows he was still familiar, wanting to use this to see what their personalities were like.
After a while, Yuga roughly understood their respective personalities.
Dratini's personality was very irritable, even if it got into arguments with people, it was still gentle, but later during fights Yuga discovered, Drarini made the most moves.
Charmander was the most stiff, jumping up and down, and also generally without "desire to express," to put it plainly it was talkative little, from time to time being with companions whispering was enough, among them its sister Dratini was the least disturbed by it.
Of the two Pokémon Drarini and Charmander, Dratini was the elder sister, Charmander was the younger brother.
As for Pumpkaboo, its personality was a little shy, its interactions with companions were the most, but it seemed its relationship with Dratini was not bad, its words were basically all in communication with Dratini.
Yuga guessed that the reason it would be pulled into Gible's camp was very likely inseparable from Dratini, as for how those two big fellows came to know each other, Yuga was vague.
While Yuga was observing the big fellows, the Natu standing on Yuga's shoulder was also observing, after all that place was where it would have to live in the future.
At that time, Chatot and Fletchinder flew back, when they saw Yuga their eyes brightened, and then they flew straight towards Yuga.
"My dear, he is back!"
Chatot now already very often called Yuga like that, but often still liked to tease.
Yuga looked at Chatot speechlessly, and then said to Fletchinder: "Why do you always follow that not-proper fellow around, be careful he leads you astray." Yuga's words there of course were also just teasing.
As soon as Chatot heard it, it was immediately full of dissatisfaction: "Where am I not proper, don't ruin my reputation!"
Fletchinder expressed that Chatot was very powerful, being with it he could learn many things.
And indeed this was true, although Chatot often took Fletchinder out to wander about, but when teaching it knowledge it was never stingy, Fletchinder's progress speed was still quite not slow.
Hearing Fletchinder praise him, Chatot proudly said to it: "Nice, all the past caring for you was not in vain!"
Yuga saw the two of them, one willing to speak and the other willing to listen, so he simply said nothing more.
At this moment Chatot noticed the Natu under Yuga's shoulder and curiously asked: "That big fellow is the newcomer?"
"That's right." Yuga nodded, and thinking of the fact that he still had matters to attend to later, he then said, "How about you and Fletchinder take it around to have a look, let it become familiar with the place it will live in from now on?"
Chatot immediately promised: "No problem, you can rest assured and leave it to me!"
Yuga nodded, then said to Natu: "Go with Chatot and them."
Natu nodded, flew out from under Yuga's shoulder, and probably because they were all Flying-type Pokémon, Natu's first impression of Chatot and Fletchinder was quite good.
After they left, Yuga saw that the Natu were also still considered well-behaved, so he turned around and went to the Ecopark.
Before going to the Ecopark, Yuga first went to the Shallow Sea Beach Sub-Ecopark, and released the Luvdisc and Huntail that he had subdued under the sea back into the offshore waters.
The offshore waters of the Shallow Sea Beach did not originally have Luvdisc and Huntail living there, they were all originally evolved from Clamperl, so the couple did not feel much fear of the new environment.
They had always been solitary and lived away from groups, and now that they had no kin, the feeling was still the same.
Because they were wild Pokémon, the couple still carried very obvious wildness on their bodies, but that was no problem, gradually they would become better.
Before leaving the Shallow Sea Beach, Yuga went to the Desert Sub-Ecopark, intending to settle the Snorlax brothers here. At Oasis No. 1 there was already one Snorlax, so it was just right to let them have a companion.
Unfortunately the two Snorlax plus the one original Snorlax were all males, otherwise they could have matched into a pair, and then given birth to a baby later.
The original Snorlax of Oasis No. 1 was very welcoming of the arrival of its kin, and rarely even took out some of its treasured Honey to share with them. Although what it took out was not much, it was already very rare.
Being welcomed by a companion was a happy matter, so the Snorlax brothers then settled down at Oasis No. 1.
After that Yuga went to the Dragon Den Sub-Ecopark, and placed the Pokémon eggs entrusted to him by Jirachi here.
The Pokémon eggs cultivated by the Dragon Clan either belonged to Dragon-type Pokémon, or carried Dragon-type bloodlines, staying in the Dragon Den Sub-Ecopark was beneficial to their hatching.
Finally Yuga went to the Haunted House Sub-Ecopark, planning to take a look at Mewtwo there.
