Chapter 41 Rewards and Tasks
At the same time, the system's voice echoed in his mind.
"Ding! Detecting that the host has captured Ancient Dragonite, you have received the following rewards: 100,000 points, 5 Rare Candy, 1 Dragon Slate (Pseudo), and 1 Power Recovery Potion."
Dragon Slate (Pseudo): Crafted to imitate a certain deity's treasure, it can be bound to two Pokemon for shared use and can be unbound at any time. Once bound, it significantly enhances Dragon-type damage.
"Ding! Detecting that the host has completed the hidden task—Mythical Beast Capture, you have received the following rewards: one Mythical Beast (Phantom Beast) lottery ticket, 100,000 points, and 5 Master Ball."
"Ding! Detecting that the host has captured an Ancient Pokemon, the hidden side quest to form a team of Ancient Pokemon has been activated. Task reward: Unknown. (Note: The team's full capacity is six, and task rewards will be issued based on team quality.)"
Ah, this...
Listening to the system's series of prompts, Ash immediately felt helpless. He was asked to collect Ancient Pokemon, but the only ones he could easily capture were the three in the mountains behind Pallet Town. The others he could think of were the Hoenn Three Stooges (the ultimate evolved form of Caterpie, the fat-headed fish caught by a fishing rod, and the legendary Pokemon that travels entirely by foot and cannot fly). These three stooges should barely count as creatures that existed in ancient times.
Moreover, according to the note, to get the best reward, these three stooges must all be captured.
"Pika Pika?" (Ash, what's wrong?)
Just as Ash was lost in thought, Pikachu came to Ash's feet, holding a Master Ball.
"Gardevoir!"
"Seed!"
"..."
Noticing the anomaly, Ash's other Pokemon also gathered around.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little too happy."
Ash snapped out of it and reassured Pikachu and the others. Then, he picked up the Master Ball and said with great enthusiasm, "I've captured Ancient Dragonite!"
"Ash, congratulations!"
"Ash, congratulations on capturing a powerful Dragonite."
At this moment, Misty and the others also walked over.
"What exactly did that Dragonite say to you when she was telepathically communicating with you?"
Compared to Misty and Brock, Bill was more concerned about why this Ancient Dragonite appeared in this era.
"She didn't say much, just that I need to help her find companions from the same period in the future. By the way, Bill, what are your plans next? Are you staying here?" Ash asked.
He had already captured Dragonite, so Bill had one less reason to stay here. Moreover, his home was destroyed by two slaps. As his friend, Ash felt it necessary to inquire about his whereabouts, as they might encounter each other again somewhere in the future.
"Of course, I'll continue to stay here, but I'll have to wait until the lighthouse is rebuilt. Before that, I plan to stay at Professor Oak's place for a while to see if I can find any records about Ancient Pokemon. At that time, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you, Ash, to lend Dragonite to Professor Oak and me for observation and research."
Bill was quite interested in the Ancient Pokemon Ash mentioned. Of course, this wasn't just because of Dragonite; it was more of his professional habit kicking in.
"I have no problem with observation and research, but it needs Dragonite's consent. Professor Oak's laboratory does indeed have books recording Ancient Pokemon. If you have time, Bill, you can go to the mountains behind Pallet Town to take a look; there are ruins there," Ash reminded him.
"Okay, I understand," Bill nodded.
"By the way, Ash, is your next stop Vermilion City?"
Bill seemed to remember something and asked.
"I plan to challenge the Indigo Plateau Conference, and the Vermilion City Gym in Vermilion City is indeed my next target," Ash replied.
"Regarding Vermilion City, there's a piece of news you might be interested in," Bill said with a mysterious smile.
"What news?"
"News about a legendary Pokemon. Two days ago, when I was communicating with Researcher Sakuragi in Vermilion City, I heard people in their laboratory say that a Pokemon resembling Zapdos has been appearing at the abandoned power plant in the southern part of Vermilion City.
The credibility of the news is quite high. Although no one has seen it directly, powerful Electric-type moves don't lie. Even if it's not Zapdos, it's a powerful Electric-type Pokemon. Capturing it, I think, should become a major combat force for you, Ash," Bill said.
"The abandoned power plant in Vermilion City? I'll go take a look."
Ash probably knew what was going on. This was a plot from the game; that Zapdos wasn't very strong and didn't have a divine position. If no one else interfered, this Zapdos would likely fall into Team Rockets' hands in the end, and Ash wouldn't let that happen.
...
With the lighthouse destroyed, Ash and the others had no intention of staying. After a brief rest, they headed towards Vermilion City.
"Ash, when Gardevoir and Dragonite were battling, what did you use to make her Mega Evolve again?"
Misty couldn't contain her curiosity and asked about Mega Evolution.
Brock, who was looking at the map, also looked at Ash when he heard this question.
"That's called Mega Evolution. It's a temporary evolution that allows some Pokemon that couldn't evolve before to break through their original limitations and achieve further evolution. Mega Evolved Pokemon can unleash their hidden power for a short period of time.
The essential items for Mega Evolution are a key stone and a corresponding ite for the Pokemon. The key stone is worn by the Trainer, and the ite is worn by the Pokemon, just like the pendant Gardevoir wears. Once these two items are gathered, the most basic preparations are complete.
To freely use Mega Evolution, there needs to be a strong bond between the Trainer and the Pokemon."
Ash explained.
