Chapter 308: Meeting

Back in Lumiose City, as Anjie descended from the helicopter, he immediately spotted his Pokémon. With the crisis resolved, they had all gathered together.

Politoed, Poliwrath, Azumarill, Darkrai, Gardevoir, Gallade, Florges, Gogoat, Florges…

Munchlax, Inteleon, Gengar, Passimian…

They were all back.

The red plants had largely disappeared, so they had regrouped, waiting for Anjie's return.

Seeing this, Anjie said to everyone on the helicopter, "I'll go ahead. I'll meet up with you later!"

With that, Anjie released Latios and flew out of the helicopter on its back.

Anjie, riding Latios, landed in front of everyone. Seeing them covered in dirt but full of energy, he felt both heartache and relief.

The scene of Anjie being affectionately surrounded by his Pokémon was once again captured by Meowth's camera.

"Shoo-poof~"

"Chiril~"

Swablu and Spritzee landed on Anjie's shoulders, one on each side, affectionately nuzzling his cheeks with their heads.

Anjie reached out and touched Swablu's fluffy wings, looking at everyone and saying, "Thank you for your hard work!"

"Muke~"

"Koga~"

"Linyu~"

Hearing Anjie's words, the Pokémon shook their heads, indicating it was no trouble. They were very happy to be able to help Anjie.

At this moment, the evolved Feraligatr, Hippowdon, Pyroar, and Skuntank squeezed to the front, calling out to Anjie with pride.

Anjie exclaimed in surprise, "Feraligatr! Pyroar! Hippowdon! Skuntank! You evolved? That's wonderful!"

Feraligatr immediately showed off its muscles, and Pyroar opened its mouth to demonstrate a Flamethrower.

Anjie said with heartfelt joy, "Great! Great! I'm so proud of you."

These were all Pokémon he had watched grow up, little by little. Now that they could each stand on their own, Anjie's heart surged with warmth.

Pyroar took the opportunity to step forward and nuzzle Anjie with its furry head.

At this moment, Anjie suddenly noticed a green-haired boy mixed in with his Pokémon.

He looked at him questioningly and asked, "And you are?"

The green-haired boy looked at Anjie with shining eyes and said, "Big brother, my name is Shoota. Are these all your Pokémon?"

Hearing Shoota's praise, the Pokémon proudly puffed out their chests.

Anjie smiled and said, "Is that so? Thank you. I think they're amazing too."

While chatting with Shoota, Anjie suddenly noticed someone lying not far away. He went over to take a look, and it was none other than Lysandre.

"Lysandre? What's he doing here?" Anjie was completely bewildered.

"Pashi~"

"Jill~"

Passimian and Aegislash came to Anjie's side one after the other.

Anjie asked them, "He… you caught him?"

"Pashi~"

"Jill~"

The two Pokémon nodded at the same time.

Anjie laughed and patted Passimian on the shoulder, then patted Aegislash's shield, "You guys are something else! You managed to catch the final boss! You've done a great job! Amazing, truly amazing!"

Passimian and Aegislash were both a little embarrassed by Anjie's praise.

Diggersby, holding Munchlax's hand, squeezed his way to Anjie's side and said seriously:

"Babu~ Babu~" If I had encountered him, I could have caught him too!

"Yes, yes, yes!" Anjie poked him on the forehead with his finger, "You're everywhere! You're the best!"

Diggersby covered his forehead and pouted: I am!

Then Anjie looked at Salamence and Glaceon and said, "Salamence, Glaceon, Z2 asked you to stay here with me for now. It will come to see you when it has time."

"Gray~ Gray~" Where did it go?

Glaceon asked.

Anjie replied, "The Kalos ecosystem needs it and Z1, so they left."

Hearing this, Glaceon and Salamence both looked disappointed. If they could, they would have liked to stay with Z2.

But since Z2 asked them to follow Anjie, they would follow Anjie.

After comforting Glaceon and Salamence, Anjie said to everyone, "Okay, everyone has worked hard for so long. I'll send you back to rest!"

The Pokémon nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

So Anjie put the Pokémon back into their Poké Balls one by one, and then gave all the Poké Balls to Gengar, including Xerneas's and Yveltal's.

Gengar flashed and disappeared into the air with the Poké Balls.

After returning to the Nibel Plateau, Gengar released everyone from their Poké Balls.

Many of the Pokémon were injured, so they went to see Nurse Joy to ask her to help them heal.

The previously idle Nurse Joy suddenly became busy.

While healing Munchlax, Nurse Joy asked seemingly casually:

"Lee-dee~ Lee-dee~" Where's Anjie? Isn't he back yet?

"Gong~ Gong~" Master has things to do and can't come back for now.

Munchlax replied casually.

"Oh~" Nurse Joy responded and continued to help Munchlax with his injuries.

After that, while helping everyone with their injuries, everyone told Nurse Joy about the many things that happened in Lumiose City this time.

Everyone worked together to fight the disaster, and just listening to it made people feel excited and surging with emotion. Gradually, Nurse Joy also became engrossed in listening.

Passimian went back to the bar with Xerneas and Yveltal.

After Xerneas and Yveltal returned, they went to sleep on the sofa.

Passimian was about to go see the Shuckle when a voice called out to it from the shadows.

"Bring me a glass of juice to quench my thirst!"

Passimian looked in the direction of the voice and saw Giratina slowly poking its head out from the mirror next to the counter.

After being busy for so long, Giratina wanted to relax.

"Coming!" Passimian ran behind the bar, took out many bottles and jars, and began to serve Giratina.

After sending the Pokémon away, Anjie took Shoota to meet up with Diantha and the others.

As for Lysandre, he had already been sent to the police station beforehand.

At this time, everyone was gathered in the arena where the League competition had been held before.

When Anjie arrived, he saw that everyone was silent, and the atmosphere seemed very wrong.

"What's wrong?" Anjie asked.

Ash took the lead in answering, "Elite Four member Malva was taken away by Officer Jenny."

Upon hearing this, Anjie also fell silent.

Malva was a member of Team Flare and leaked a lot of information to Lysandre. Otherwise, Lysandre would not have been able to get the news and expose himself in advance, let alone cause such a big incident in Lumiose City.

It was hard to say how the League would punish Malva afterwards, but she certainly wouldn't be able to keep her position as an Elite Four member.

After a long silence, Steven took the lead in breaking the silence.

"Oh, right, Anjie, how did you come with Shouta?"

Shouta and Daigo are also acquaintances. Not only are they both from the Hoenn region, but Shouta's Sceptile mega stone was given to him by Daigo.

Before Anjie could speak, Shouta excitedly told Daigo about how he and Anjie met.

"Mr. Daigo, Mr. Anjie is really too strong. He has many powerful Pokémon, Metagross, Darkrai, Goodra..."

During Shouta's incessant chatter, everyone realized that Anjie had brought so many Pokémon to support Lumiose City.

Calem was even more surprised and said, "Anjie, so the Aggron, Hippowdon, Excadrill... they are all your Pokémon? They really helped me a lot."

Calem told everyone about their encounter with Aggron and the others.

"It's good as long as I can help you," Anjie said with a smile.

Calem then said, "Anjie, wait here for a while. Chairman Damalanchi of the League wants to meet you and Satoshi."

"Chairman Damalanchi wants to meet me?" Anjie asked in surprise.

Calem nodded and said, "The chairman just arrived in the Kalos region. After learning about your and Satoshi's heroic performance in this incident, he immediately said he wanted to meet you in person."

Chairman Damalanchi is not the chairman of the Kalos League, but the president of the entire Pokémon League.

Anjie said, "Really? It's just a small matter, there's no need for the chairman to make a trip himself."

Daigo smiled and said, "A small matter? The world was almost destroyed, and you actually say it's a small matter."

Anjie thought: This isn't the first time the world has almost been destroyed.

Back then, there was the incident with the three legendary birds in the Orange Archipelago, Team Aqua and Team Magma awakening Groudon and Kyogre, Team Galactic capturing Dialga and Palkia... every single one of them was a big deal.

Of course, Satoshi's figure was inseparable from every single one of these incidents.

Calem smiled and said, "There's no harm in meeting him, at least it's beneficial to the development of your Azoth."

As she spoke, she playfully winked at Anjie.

That's indeed true.

"Alright!" Anjie thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "Then I'll wait here for the chairman to arrive."

About two hours later, an aircraft landed outside the venue, followed by a group of trainers in uniform escorting two old men from the aircraft.

The short old man in the lead was the president of the Pokémon League—Damalanchi.

The other one was the chairman of the Kalos League—Randolph.

Seeing the two chairmen, Calem and Daigo quickly led Anjie and Satoshi to greet them.

Alain also performed brilliantly in this incident, but he was involved with Team Flare. The League had already shown leniency by not pursuing his responsibility.

If he hadn't been genuinely unaware of Team Flare's actions and with Professor Sycamore's guarantee, he would have been eating prison food like Pachira.

Seeing Anjie and Satoshi, Chairman Damalanchi warmly shook their hands.

"Anjie and Satoshi, hello, you are truly young and promising!"

"Hehe~~" Satoshi scratched his head in embarrassment.

Anjie humbly said, "Chairman Damalanchi, you flatter me."

Chairman Damalanchi said with a smile, "Young people shouldn't be modest!"

As he said that, he looked at Satoshi and said, "Satoshi, we meet again!"

That's right, Chairman Damalanchi knew Satoshi. Satoshi had participated in so many League competitions and had met Chairman Damalanchi more than once.

Satoshi replied, "Mr. Damalanchi, I am honored to meet you again."

Chairman Damalanchi patted Satoshi on the shoulder and said, "I heard that you won the runner-up in this League competition? It's a pity, you were almost the champion. I think you have the strength, just a little bit of bad luck. Keep up the good work in the future."

"Yes, I will continue to work hard!" Satoshi said with a serious expression.

At this time, Chairman Randolph said, "Let's talk in another place."

Chairman Damalanchi said with a smile, "Indeed, let's change places. It's not good to just stand outside!"

So, led by Calem, the group entered a room in the venue.

After everyone was seated, Chairman Damalanchi looked at Anjie and asked, "Anjie, is it okay if I call you that?"

Anjie smiled and said, "Please, you are my senior, you can call me whatever you want."

Chairman Damalanchi immediately said with a smile, "Then I'll be cheeky and act like a senior. I only just found out that Xerneas and Yveltal are both by your side."

Anjie nodded and said, "They are indeed temporarily staying at my house."

Chairman Damalanchi continued, "I also heard that you can command Diancie, Magearna, Latias, and Latios?"

At once, everyone's eyes gathered on Anjie.

Daigo thought: Not just them, there's also Volcanion.

Anjie nodded.

Chairman Damalanchi exclaimed, "A formidable younger generation! A formidable younger generation!"

At this time, Chairman Damalanchi changed the topic and suddenly asked Anjie, "Anjie, what do you think of the League?"

Anjie thought for a moment and replied, "It's not bad."

Chairman Damalanchi asked again, "Then do you like the League?"

Anjie replied again, "I like it quite a bit."

Hearing this, Chairman Damalanchi smiled and said, "That's good, that's good! It seems that the League has done a good job these years."

Chairman Damalanchi then asked, "I heard that Anjie, you are from the Kingdom of Azoth?"

Anjie nodded and said, "Yes, the Kingdom of Azoth is my home."

Damalanchi smiled and said, "The Kingdom of Azoth is a good place! The origin of mysterious science. Queen Anna was quite a remarkable figure back then."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions became strange.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Chairman Damalanchi asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you all?"

At this time, Chairman Randolph whispered a few words in Chairman Damalanchi's ear, and Chairman Damalanchi immediately looked surprised.

"So Anjie is actually Queen Anna's brother?" Chairman Damalanchi slapped his thigh. "Then I'm really presumptuous. I can't be so cheeky as to be your senior!"

Anjie said with a smile, "That's not the case. My five hundred years of sleep was almost like time stopped. You are still my senior."

Chairman Damalanchi said with emotion, "As expected of the origin of mysterious science, Aether Foundation can even do such a thing. It's too unbelievable."

Chairman Randolph nodded in agreement and said, "Who says it isn't!"

After the exclamations, Chairman Damalanchi said again, "Anjie, Satoshi, I once again express my gratitude to you on behalf of the League. Thank you for your activity in this operation, thank you for your efforts to protect the Kalos region!"
