"Alright, alright, alright, it's been a hundred years since I summoned them."
Mammon couldn't help but laugh when he heard Hoopa Unbound say that. "Is it that you don't want to summon them?"
"Is it that you're afraid they'll beat you to death if you summon them?"
As Mesprit said, before being punished, Hoopa was an unbridled demon.
After all, Hoopa Unbound is classified as a Demon Pokémon, which speaks volumes.
The Pokedex's description of Hoopa Unbound is also very vivid.
'Its true form possesses immense power. Legend has it that due to its desire for Darling, it once uprooted and stole an entire castle containing Darling.'
'It is said to use six rings and six massive arms to take anything. Its power was sealed, turning it into a small form.'
Therefore, what Mesprit said about other Legendary Pokémon disliking Hoopa was by no means groundless.
After all, Hoopa Unbound has the Dark type, and a Pokémon's personality is often somewhat linked to its type.
As a Dark-type demon, domineering, brutal, savage, greedy, and warlike are true descriptions of Hoopa Unbound, and because of its innate immense power and spatial rings.
This also made Hoopa Unbound completely at ease. Its ability to freely teleport allowed Hoopa Unbound to transfer others in front of it, regardless of their wishes.
Just think, you're happily soaking in lava, ready for a good night's sleep, and suddenly, inexplicably, you're teleported to another place. Who would be in a good mood?
Most importantly, Hoopa Unbound's spatial teleportation is extremely unreasonable.
It can even teleport targets in different dimensions! It's incredibly overbearing.
So, after being punished and losing that immense power, although Hoopa Unbound's temperament became more childish, even then, it understood that it absolutely could not use the power of the spatial rings to summon those Legends again.
In its Unbound form, Hoopa can only control three rings, fewer than the six in its Unbound form, but they can still be used.
However, for the past hundred years, Hoopa Unbound has never used its rings to summon any Legendary Pokémon.
Why?
What else could it be? It was afraid of getting beaten!
"Hoopa is very well-behaved now! It never bullies the weak!"
Hoopa Unbound tried to salvage its image.
"...If you think so, then so be it," Mesprit said faintly.
As one of the 'Gods of Emotion' representing 'Heart', it could feel Hoopa Unbound's emotions at this moment.
But how to put it? Mesprit's emotional intelligence was still very high.
"Hoopa has indeed reformed now. Besides being a bit mischievous, it's still very kind."
After all, it was his own kid, so Baraz still spoke a good word for Hoopa Unbound.
"That's right, that's right, Hoopa isn't bad at all now," Meray was also very protective.
"I also believe that's the case. Although I haven't known Hoopa for long, I also think it's a good child."
Mammon smiled and agreed.
"Baraz, Meray, Mamom~"
Hoopa Unbound was moved to tears, its voice becoming sugary.
"It's Mammon, not Mamom," Mammon corrected again.
"So, Hoopa's rings can freely teleport Pokémon? Any Pokémon?" Caitlin couldn't help but be curious.
"Yes! Whether it's Pokémon, humans, or objects, it can do it!"
When its precious rings were mentioned, Hoopa Unbound immediately became energetic, taking the ring from its belly and showing it off.
"Hmph hmph~ Whether it's Dialga and Palkia in their own space-time, or Giratina in the Distortion World, it's all possible. Hoopa can easily fish them out."
Hoopa Unbound was very proud.
"That's too amazing~!" Platinum exclaimed in surprise.
"Hehe~ Hoopa is just that awesome!" Hoopa Unbound greatly enjoyed Platinum's praise.
"What about Arceus?" Mammon suddenly asked.
"Hoopa can fish out anything, even Arceus… Arceus can't. Mammon is bad!"
Hoopa Unbound, in its pride, almost fell for it, then reacted and glared angrily at Mammon.
Fish out Arceus? If it had that ability, would its power have been sealed?
It would have long since burst into the Hall of Origin, kicked that Arceus aside, and become the boss itself!
"Hahaha~ Hoopa, you're really cute."
Mammon couldn't help himself, pulling Hoopa Unbound over and pinching its little cheek.
Baraz and the others also couldn't help but laugh.
"Since you have this ability, Hoopa, can you do me a favor?"
After thinking for a moment, Mammon asked Hoopa Unbound.
"Hmm~ What favor?" Hoopa Unbound blinked.
"I really like Diancie, but I can't find its whereabouts."
"Diancie? Oh, the one that lives underground?"
Hoopa Unbound thought about it, having a slight impression, but not much.
"Yes, can you help me fish it out?"
"I can, but Mammon, do you want to catch it?" Hoopa Unbound hesitated for a moment.
"That's right, I really like Diancie." Mammon felt that his 'Mascot Dream Team' needed Diancie.
"Then can you not force Diancie, Mammon, if Diancie doesn't want to?"
What Hoopa Unbound said surprised Mammon a little.
Mesprit also looked at Hoopa Unbound with surprise.
"Honestly, I'm surprised you'd say that, but I promise you, Hoopa."
Mammon replied with a smile. It seemed that the hundred years of punishment had indeed changed Hoopa a lot.
This was also the meaning behind Gulis's punishment for Hoopa: to make Hoopa develop empathy and truly understand the meaning of bonds.
This way, even if it regained its former power, the lawless and unbridled 'Demon of Evil' would have completely disappeared.
"If Diancie doesn't want to be my companion, I won't force it."
"Hehe~ Alright, then I'll help you fish out Diancie!"
Hoopa Unbound smiled slyly. Finally able to summon Legendary Pokémon again, Hoopa Unbound was also very excited at this moment.
The meal was undoubtedly enjoyed by both hosts and guests, and after eating, Hoopa Unbound urged Mammon to come to the yard.
Hmm, it seemed even more eager than Mammon.
Baraz and Meray naturally followed as well.
"Look at me, look at me, everyone look at me~"
Hoopa Unbound floated around, looking exactly like a show-off.
Hoopa took the ring from its belly and threw it out. The ring landed in front, and a hazy light glowed in the center of the ring.
Hoopa Unbound extended its arm and slowly spun.
"Hoopa Fishy fishy!"
Accompanied by Hoopa Unbound's 'slogan', the spatial ring slowly expanded. Before long, a beautiful Pokémon fell out of the spatial ring, looking bewildered.
But it managed to stabilize itself in time, floating above the ground, gazing around blankly with its ruby-like eyes.
No words were needed; its human-like expression completely revealed its current thoughts.
Where is this? Why am I here?
"It actually appeared? This ability is simply too…"
Perverted!
But good upbringing still made Platinum struggle to hold back the expletive that almost slipped out.
No, what is this thing?
Although Hoopa Unbound had said during their previous conversation that its rings could even summon the Space-Time Duo from different dimensions.
However, hearing about it and witnessing it firsthand brought completely different levels of shock.
Platinum had seen it with her own eyes; with just a wave of its hand and a shout, a living Mythical Pokémon appeared just like that!
Damn!
Doesn't that mean that having Hoopa is equivalent to having all the Pokémon in the world?!
"It's incredible~" Caitlin's eyes sparkled with a strange light. Even she, who had seen much of the world, was greatly shocked at this moment.
Because she thought the same as Platinum: this isn't Hoopa? This is the embodiment of all Pokémon!
Oh, except for Arceus, after all, Hoopa Unbound itself said it couldn't fish out Arceus.
But was it truly unable to, or did it not dare to?
"Hehe~ Were you scared by Hoopa?"
Hoopa Unbound floated in front of Caitlin and Platinum, spun in a circle, and chuckled slyly while covering its mouth.
It was very satisfied with their expressions at the moment; it was greatly pleased.
"We were scared, Hoopa, you're amazing~"
Platinum praised without stingy.
"Hehe Hoopa is just that awesome!" Hoopa Unbound floated around happily.
Seeing this, Baraz shook his head helplessly, exchanged glances with Meray, and both smiled knowingly.
Mammon also looked at Diancie, examining it up and down before nodding with satisfaction. "Not bad, this is a little rich Pokémon!"
"Um…"
Suddenly, a weak female voice sounded.
It was a very unfamiliar yet pleasant female voice, and it was telepathy.
Everyone immediately looked at Diancie, who had been fished out.
Noticing that all these humans' gazes suddenly fell on it, Diancie instinctively retreated, feeling a bit scared.
"Don't be afraid, Diancie, we won't hurt you."
Mammon took two steps forward and said gently, a faint golden light appearing, soothing the fear in Diancie's heart.
Since receiving the power bestowed by Arceus, Mammon's original Viridian Power had also been integrated.
Hmm, Arceus's power also has the effect of increasing affinity, and the effect is even stronger.
Under the influence of Arceus's power, Diancie's mood calmed down a lot.
"I am Mammon, it's a pleasure to meet you, Diancie."
"Mammon? I am Diancie, it's also a pleasure to meet you."
Diancie seemed to be no longer nervous. It bowed gracefully in return, very politely.
Diancie's telepathy was still full of confusion; it didn't know what had happened.
One second it was in the Diamond Domain facing its subjects, and the next second it suddenly appeared here.
"Could you please tell me where this is? Why did I appear here?" Diancie tilted its head and asked in confusion.
"This Pokémon feels like a very well-mannered noble," Meray whispered to Baraz. This was the feeling Diancie gave her.
Even though it was just a Pokémon, from its words to its gestures, one could feel a strong sense of proper upbringing.
This was truly amazing.
"Yes, and it's very beautiful. As expected of a Mythical Pokémon, no wonder Mammon said he likes Diancie very much," Baraz nodded and sighed.
Although he had always lived in the Genesis Valley, it didn't mean Baraz was completely isolated from the world.
He occasionally went to the outside world, and he was also a Trainer, wasn't he?
So Baraz also knew that Diancie was a legendary Mythical Pokémon from the Kalos region!
"Tsk~ Hoopa is also a Mythical Pokémon, and Hoopa thinks it's not as pretty as Reshiram," Hoopa Unbound heard Baraz's words, pouted, and said.
Anyway, in its aesthetic, it thought this little Diancie wasn't as pretty as Reshiram.
It was a pity, if it weren't afraid of Reshiram breathing fire at it upon meeting, Hoopa Unbound would still really like to catch up with Reshiram.
Ahem, a hundred years ago, it beat up Reshiram, and it wondered if Reshiram still remembered that.
Hmm, it hoped Reshiram wouldn't take it to heart.
