"I must say, you don't even miss a word. For your answer, yes, it is true. When a Pokemon reaches master rank, they can use this method and not feel any bad symptoms."
"But why? Won't their souls be affected?", asked Blue this time.
"No. You may know but when a Pokemon evolves or ranks up, they not only gain physical power and abilities but their soul power will also be stronger than before. So, when they reach the master rank, their soul power would be so high and stable that using things like 'Revolution' will not affect them.
But that is not what is interesting about 'Revolution'. For your method, you would need 2 stones. One for the trainer and another for the Pokemon. These stones would be linked and then Pokemon further evolves.
There is a reason why such a thing happens. It is because the soul power and also the physical power of the Pokemon are too low to do it individually. That is why they need the help of their trainer and also the help of stone.
But, if you train them in a proper way, they will not need the stones and also their trainer to further evolve. They could do it on their own. And if you apply and train them in my method, then the Pokemon could do it all alone when they reach champion rank, and in some rare cases pseudo-champion rank Pokemon could do it too.", said Lucario.
"So, does that mean you don't have the stones right now?"
"Oh, I do have it. I have some stones that could be created to form a mega stone. But that would take some time as the stones will have to be special.", said Lucario.
"What is the history behind Rayquaza being the first mega-evolution Pokemon? I also heard that it was you who became the first mega-evolved Pokemon."
"Actually, it was both of us. I was the first one to mega-evolve via stone while Rayquaza was the first one to do it on its own. Rayquaza is a very powerful Pokemon. It might be the fastest Pokemon to ever exist. When Kyogre and Groudon fought a never-ending battle, Rayquaza intervened and when both of the legendary Pokemons reached their primal self, it mega-evolved itself to control them."
"Do you think that I will get some benefits or more information if I go to places like Sky Tower where Rayquaza is supposed to live or Meteor falls where draconid people live?
"Axel, I don't know much about these places as I have not left this place for a very long time. Of course, you can ask them for any suggestions if you have time and if you are so free but I don't suggest that you waste your time. I already have all the things that you require.
Now can I see your Riolu? I want to see its progress.", said Lucario.
"Of course, let me call it.", said Axel and called out Lucario.
"Oh it evolved so fast and its foundation has still not been compromised. That is very rare.", said Lucario and then started to look at Axel's Lucario from different directions.
Axel's Lucario was feeling a bit uncomfortable looking at an older Lucario moving around and looking at it in a weird way. Axel just told it that it would be okay, so it calmed down.
"You have made some progress on it. I am especially interested in this hidden power typing that you are training on your Pokemon. I suggest that you leave Lucario here for a few months so that I can make its foundation even stronger.", suggested Lucario.
"I don't think that it is a good idea. It is still a kid and I don't want to leave it here all alone.", replied Axel.
"That is up to you but since I am a Lucario myself, I have a lot of ways to improve its foundation. It also can learn it when it gets older but learning right now would be optimal."
Axel was in a pickle and he didn't know what to do. It was still a kid and as of right now, he didn't want it to be influenced by others. But what the leader had said was also not false. Making a strong foundation was the key and here it could learn it perfectly.
Finally, he turned towards Lucario and asked, "What do you want to do? Do you want to live here for a couple of months and then train under this Lucario? It is a very powerful Pokemon and has a lot of experience. You were actually born here so you can also live with your parents for some time."
Lucario didn't hesitate and agreed to stay here. It nodded its head saying that it would stay here which surprised Axel and also hurt him a little. He expected that it would want to stay with him but Lucario was thinking about other things.
Since it was a Pokemon, it naturally wanted to be stronger. It realized that it was one of the weakest Pokemon in Axel's team. Since living here would make it stronger at a faster pace, it agreed to live here and train.
"Ok, if you want to live here, I have no problem. I will be giving you 2 months. Get stronger as much as you can and then I will come to pick you up.", said Axel.
Food and drink were brought to welcome Axel and Blue and they thoroughly enjoyed it. Lucario then started to tell its story to Axel and Blue. Axel had heard most of them but for Blue, it was all new.
"Lucario, is there anything mysterious about this aeus energy? When I look at the stats of Lucario and others too, I see 'Aeus energy' as their passive move. It makes them stronger and also increases their potential. But I believe that there is more to it.", asked Axel.
"Of course. How could Aeus energy be as simple as that? What you call Aeus energy, we call grand energy. Now, since the Pokemon who has lived here or been born here, they are naturally attuned to that energy and it affects them in a positive way.
As of right now, it just increases their potential, makes them talented, and also makes them stronger. But if the Pokemons specifically train on this move, the passive would be upgraded and they would be even more powerful. This especially helps on aura Pokemon-like or psychic-type Pokemons. Others can also benefit from this. But who to do it? I will not tell you cause there are multiple ways to do it and they would get different benefits. If I tell you the way to do it, you will be stuck in only one way. So, find your way."
After talking with Lucario, Blue also wanted to get a Pokemon here and train it. It had been a long time since Blue got a Pokemon for himself. Almost all of his Pokemons were in king rank or above king rank and now he didn't need a new Pokemon. But the island was special and the place was also special.
He already had a Lucario, so he didn't want to get another one. He did call it out for the first Lucario to see. It gave him some suggestions and also some compliments. Finally, he decided to get an Elekid. He didn't have one till now and as per Axel, the Pokemon could evolve further to another Pokemon.
So, he wanted to test it out. Axel helped him get the best of it and Blue was now holding an egg in an incubator. It was supposed to hatch in a couple of days.
Aron's egg was also going to hatch in a couple of days now. It had already been more than a week since he had got it and he was excited to meet the new member of his team.
"Lucario, where is my Steelix?"
"Oh, your Steelix has made a lot of friends and it has become quite popular."
"Popular?"
"It has 5 girlfriends now."
"What? How did it manage to make 5 girlfriends within 5 months?"
Axel had been here for more than 16 years and now he only had 1 girlfriend and the relationship was still not serious. But his Pokemon had 5 girlfriends now?
"Yes, the guy looks like a natural. Since this is going to be the last day of Steelix here, it has decided to go on a trip with all of them now. It would be back within a few hours. So let's wait for a while.
By the way, when are you going to leave?"
"I was thinking about leaving tomorrow. Why do you ask?"
"A couple of things. First of all, you need to meet with Pidgeot who lives in the mountains. It had been telling me to give you this message. Another thing is that you should meet with Ninetales who lives inside the volcano too. Both of them are interested in meeting with you.
If you have a time crunch, then I can directly teleport you to one of their locations. Which location do you want to go to tomorrow?"
Pidgeot lived in a wind resource-type place and Axel had the teleportation paper of that place. So, he could directly go there. But for Ninetales, he didn't have it. Kate had it and he needed to go there. He also wanted to go to a fairy resource-type place but as of right now, he didn't find any need to go there. Togetic was growing at a good pace and didn't need any help from them.
There was one thing that interested me about Ninetales's call. It was about its child that was going to be born. Ninetales had said that it was one of the queen species and they are normally very much more powerful than normal Ninetales. It wanted its kid to be a part of Axel's team but Axel didn't ask when it would be born.
So, maybe there is new information about it.
"I will go to Ninetales's place."
"Ok, I will teleport you guys to that place tomorrow. Now, let's wait for Steelix."
"Lucario, you said that there are places like this in the world that have resources type places like you guys have. You told me the last time that you don't have any contact with these places and you will try to find them. So, did you find out about them?"
"You are a very peculiar human, Axel. You don't miss a thing and that is what I like about you. Now, as per your information, I did say it. There are some Pokemons of my first master, that lived in other places of the world but since this grand energy blocks my senses to the outside world, I cannot sense them.
So, I tried to find out about them and I found 2 such places."
"2 of them? That is great news. Where are they?"
"Have patience. I was not done explaining it. There must be at least 12 of those places including this island as much as I can remember but as of right now, I only found 2 of those places.
And I was only able to find these places from the talks of the humans that live on this island.
But I regret to inform you that you cannot go to any of those places right now."
