With Xerneas' instructions before its slumber, the Wigglytuff King, Togekiss King, and the former Gardevoir Queen, these three Pokemon, very naturally accepted John's invitation.
From now on, John's ranch wouldn't only have the Gardevoir species as high-level Pokemon. The Togekiss and Wigglytuff species would also join in.
The Wigglytuff and Togekiss species were the dream Pokemon of countless girls, after all.
After calling Emerald to arrange this matter, and roughly reporting to Saul about the "Yveltal "incident", John finally returned to the secret realm on Floating Island.
Inside the spatial rift of Floating Island, the Pokemon were still training and playing on their own, unchanged by John's departure.
John released his main Pokemon and turned to enter the secret base.
He already had Primal Steel obtained from Regigigas.
As for Dialga's Adamant Orb, John was preparing to use it as material for Gardevoir.
Regarding the Galar Region's Sword and Shield' materials, John already had two in hand, but both were Rusted Shields.
One came from the "Shadow Guardian" dungeon, and one came from reality, from the Pokemon Investigation Department.
After John became champion, he had the qualification to join the Pokemon Investigation Department. In their warehouse was a harvest from a past mission called the Rusted Shiel.
As for the Rusted Sword that corresponded with the Rusted Shield, John temporarily hadn't found it yet. But it wasn't mandatory. He felt the Rusted Sword didn't quite suit Aggron anyway. If he could obtain it later, that would be best, but if not, these two Rusted Shields would be enough to make Aggron's defense skyrocket a level.
As for materials related to Zacian, Zamazenta, and Heatran at the legendary level, John had no leads, and moreover felt they were similar to the Rusted Sword, even if he had them, they wouldn't necessarily match well with Aggron.
However, condensing the divine treasure still had to wait until Aggron obtained its noble title before proceeding.
Searching for the Aggron King, this matter had to be left to the Diamond Clan.
John decided to visit the Diamond Clan settlement right now to inquire.
Welcoming John was a lady with a beauty mark at the corner of her mouth, still graceful and charming, Mai.
"If you want to know any information, you can also ask me."
"I heard the Noble Aggron is being looked after by your Diamond Clan? I want to ask about its location."
"The Noble Aggron is indeed being looked after by our Diamond Clan. Are you planning to challenge it?" Mai asked in return.
"That's right." John didn't hide it. When the time came to challenge the Aggron King, there would definitely be Diamond Clan members witnessing it anyway.
Mai nodded, stating the truth. "The Noble Aggron is in the Oreburrow Tunnel in the Obsidian Fieldlands."
"Thank you." John said, preparing to leave immediately.
"Ah, wait!" Mai hurriedly stopped John. "You're going to challenge the Noble Aggron right now?"
"That's right." John turned back to confirm his answer.
John didn't comment on Mai saying she couldn't find the Noble Aggron.
But thinking about it, of course she was the one responsible for looking after the Noble Aggron, so she must know. Better to tell him outright, lest after he took the Noble Aggron's title, the Diamond Clan would be searching everywhere.
Since Adaman was so straightforward, he had to give him some face too.
"Let's go." John responded once, turning to walk toward the village gate.
He didn't wait for anyone's response. After all, this was the "game" world, so he didn't bother paying too much attention.
Mai immediately widened her eyes.
Standing at the village entrance was a representative of malevolence, white skin, powerful arms, a tall body, radiating an aura that warned strangers to stay away. Just one look and she felt her heart would jump out.
That was Adaman.
"Captain!" Mai hurried over. "That person just now wants to challenge the Noble Aggron!"
"I know." Adaman's expression was calm. "I heard everything."
"Then... should we stop him?" Mai asked worriedly.
"Stop him?" Adaman shook his head. "That man defeated me and Irida together. Even our six Eevee evolutions combined couldn't last one move against his Slaking."
"If he wants to challenge the Noble Aggron, let him. Perhaps... this is fate."
Mai was stunned.
'Defeated the captain and the Pearl Clan leader together? and thier six eevee evolutions couldn't last one move?'
''What kind of monster was that person?!'
"Besides," Adaman continued, "the Noble Aggron has been frenzied for a long time. If he can calm it, that would be good for everyone."
John rode Lugia straight to the Oreburrow Tunnel in the Obsidian Fieldlands.
This tunnel was deep within a mountain, dark and oppressive.
As soon as he entered, John felt a violent aura.
"This is it."
He released Aggron.
Aggron sensed something too, the presence of its own kind, but far more powerful.
Deep in the tunnel, a pair of crimson eyes suddenly opened.
A roar that shook the entire tunnel rang out.
The Noble Aggron had awakened!
