The summit of Mt. Chimney had already become Terrance’s exclusive training ground for his Pokémon. If it weren’t for the massive commotion caused by Diancie emerging from the diamond cocoon, it wouldn’t have attracted so many people here.
For ordinary Trainers, reaching this place was no easy task. Even with Flying-type Pokémon, there were many obstacles. The wild Pokémon inside Mt. Chimney were all aggressive. Any Pokémon that intruded with even slightly weaker aura would be treated as an easy target to bully.
Those who managed to arrive here immediately were all elite among Trainers. Though their numbers were small, they possessed considerable insight.
The police used their authority to restrain them, preventing them from interfering in the battle. But even after Terrance returned, these people still hadn’t left. Instead, they held up their Pokédexes, staring intently at Diancie.
Unfortunately, even now, none of them could determine what kind of Pokémon Diancie was.
Most people here only had the Hoenn Pokédex, but in truth, even if the Pokédex were upgraded to its highest configuration, it still won’t contain specific information on Diancie. This is because even the various Professors who compiled the Pokédex do not know much about a Pokémon like this, of which only one or two exist in the entire world.
Of course, as more data was gathered, many Legendary Pokémon would eventually be recorded in the Pokédex. It was only a matter of time. However, the information on such Pokémon would never be as complete as that of ordinary Pokémon.
“Officer Jenny, there was a small accident during my Pokémon’s special training, but it’s already been resolved,” Terrance said slowly, gently patting Diancie’s head.
At this moment, Diancie, having just gone through a fierce battle, blinked its eyes a few times, looking extremely tired. If it hadn’t secretly let out a yawn, Terrance might have thought something more serious had happened… rather than it simply being drowsy.
“Yes, understood,” Officer Jenny nodded immediately. Then she looked at the surrounding Trainers and instructed, “Everyone, that’s the situation. I hope you won’t spread any unnecessary rumors after returning.”
“Officer Jenny, that’s no problem. But I have something I’d like to ask Master Terrance.”
A tall man jumped down from his Pokémon and spoke with curiosity, “Master Terrance, this Pokémon… it should be yours, right?”
“May I ask, what is its name?”
All the Trainers on Mt. Chimney shared this question. Diancie, even in the Kalos region, was only recognized by highly knowledgeable Professors and Trainers. In the Hoenn region, even fewer people knew of it.
In the battle just now, Diancie was only at a slight disadvantage despite facing four Pokémon. Truly the embodiment of coolness and elegance, it not only piqued the curiosity of the Trainers but even the police, including Officer Jenny, couldn’t help but look over.
“It… its name is Diancie,” Terrance said with a faint smile. “I think in some time, you’ll come to understand it in more detail.”
“At the Elite Four Challenge Competition.”
……
……
One day later.
News about Diancie still spread on a small scale.
The four Elite Four of the Hoenn League each obtained a piece of information through their own channels. Looking at the blurry images, they all revealed serious expressions.
Legendary Pokémon, Diancie?
“There’s very little information on Legendary Pokémon to begin with, and even less recorded about Diancie. Just when did this Terrance capture it?”
Glacia showed a puzzled expression. With a 5–6 record defeating Norman, Terrance had already made all the current Elite Four feel a sense of threat.
Up to now, whether it was Phoebe, Sidney, Glacia, or Drake, none of them had the confidence to say they could definitely defeat Terrance.
Under such circumstances, Terrance revealing yet another never-before-used trump card forced all four Elite Four into silence.
Although a Trainer capable of capturing a Legendary Pokémon was not necessarily strong, based on Terrance’s various performances, none of them could convince themselves with that argument.
The exposure of Terrance’s Diancie undoubtedly made him appear even more mysterious and unfathomable in strength… causing many to feel wary of him.
Of course, the most active side was still the Pokémon Contest faction. After Raoul Contesta produced detailed information on Diancie, he locked onto the most crucial line.
A suspected mutation of Carbink.
This piece of information sparked countless thoughts in him, but in the end, he restrained himself and did not press further.
“As a Legendary Pokémon, there’s no need to mention Diancie’s rarity. What’s most valuable is its ability to effortlessly create beautiful diamonds, it’s practically born for Pokémon Contests.”
Raoul Contesta muttered to himself. Even compared to Milotic, known as the most beautiful Pokémon, he believed none could captivate people quite like Diancie. The difference lay in rarity.
And Diancie’s unique ability!
Milotic was already extremely rare, but Diancie, there might not even be a few in the entire world.
In such a situation, Diancie could not only become Terrance’s symbol, but Terrance could also become Diancie’s symbol. Considering Diancie’s potential to attract fans, the combination of the two made Raoul Contesta foresee the emergence of a Contest Master who might even surpass Wallace.
“Let’s talk about this matter later,” Terrance politely declined Raoul Contesta’s proposal.
“But you’ve defeated Norman, and now you’ve captured the Legendary Pokémon Diancie. This is a perfect opportunity to build momentum… unless you’re planning to wait until you successfully reach the Elite Four position before—”
Raoul Contesta contacted Terrance immediately and began discussing it with him.
“That’s not it… it’s just that something has come up on my side, and I really don’t have the mind to deal with these things. But you’re right, it won’t be too late to handle it after succeeding in the Elite Four Challenge Competition,” Terrance said, looking at his palm as he spoke.
“I see.”
After ending the conversation with Mr. Raoul Contesta, Terrance looked at the now-vanished Fairy Mark and froze once again.
The unexpected situation that occurred after Carbink’s mutation had taken everyone by surprise.
Neither Terrance nor the Rotom Pokédex had anticipated that such a situation would arise after Carbink’s mutation, nor had they prepared any countermeasures.
And when Terrance rushed over earlier, he hadn’t even thought about using the Fairy Mark to resolve it.
But at that moment, a special feeling guided him to try using the Fairy Mark to awaken Diancie.
Afterward, by a stroke of luck, Terrance successfully used the Fairy Mark granted by Xerneas to bring Diancie back to consciousness…
This should have been something that made Terrance extremely happy, but after that, the Fairy Mark suddenly began to dissipate, and its rate of disappearance grew faster and faster, until now, it had completely vanished.
He had also lost the ability to communicate telepathically with Fairy-type Pokémon…
“Is this a blessing or a misfortune?”
