Thinking of the adorable Pokémon in Ho-oh's guard.
Entei with its majestic mane, Lei Gong with sleek fur, and Suicune who can purify water sources.
Naoki gladly agreed.
"No need for help, if possible, I only hope you can protect this tree and the Pokémon living on it."
Like providing unlimited Holy Ash to the item shop in the Explorer Team Guild.
That way, even if a Pokémon accidentally loses life in the future, Holy Ash can be used to revive it directly.
Hearing this, Ho-oh felt quite surprised in its heart.
No wishes, just wants it to protect the Pokémon living here?
It turned its head, gazing at this human with bright eyes.
It sensed that this human had a kind heart, loved peace, loved Pokémon, and cherished everything in this world.
"This person meets the conditions to become the Rainbow Hero," Ho-oh thought secretly.
"Then please take care from now on!" Naoki laughed.
Ho-oh let out a clear cry, happily agreeing.
So far, Ho-oh can be considered officially as a member of the World Tree.
Along with yesterday's Rayquaza, the World Tree now possesses a formidable force.
The Black Rayquaza perched at the top of the tree along with Ho-oh.
Mewtwo living within the tree.
And Giratina residing in the shadow of the World Tree.
Wait!
Naoki suddenly realized something.
Rayquaza and Ho-oh were both attracted by the aura released when the World Tree matured yesterday.
Then the question arises, besides them, could other Legendary Pokémon also have been attracted?

At the same time, in the Hoenn Region, inside the Weather Institute.
Even though it was already nighttime, the researchers continued tracking Groudon and Kyogre.
The satellite map showed that the icons representing those two Super Ancient Pokémon were moving at different speeds.
Groudon was still over the sea between the Hoenn Region and Unova Region.
While Kyogre was moving rapidly past the Unova Region, continuing forward!
This scene immediately overturned the researchers' daytime speculations.
"What is going on?! Weren't their targets the Unova Region?"
"No... Based on Kyogre's direction, it's swiftly heading towards the Paldea Region!"
The Paldea Region... which was on the other side of the planet!
What on earth could there be that drives this Super Ancient Pokémon to move tirelessly towards that destination?
After a brief silence.
A senior officer ordered: "Notify the Paldea League immediately!"
However, before the assistant could dial the Paldea League's number, a researcher in front shouted in alarm.
"Kyogre has disappeared!"
The attention of everyone around was immediately caught.
"What's going on?!"
"I don't know! Satellite monitoring shows that Kyogre seemed to leave the sea, flew into the air, and then vanished into thin air!"
"How could this happen..."
Someone murmured in disbelief.
Could it be that Kyogre had Psychic abilities and could use Teleport to go elsewhere?

At the World Tree, as Naoki was talking with Ho-oh about how it sensed the World Tree's aura, Naoki suddenly saw Mewtwo's eyes reveal a serious expression.
It sharply raised its head, looking forward.
The next second, Naoki and Ho-oh saw a large Pokémon, resembling a whale, burst through distorted space and rushed in from outside.
Kyogre opened its gaping mouth, letting out an excited hum.
It looked intently at the giant tree before it.
This was the place, it hadn't sensed wrong!
With such dense Natural Energy, if it slept here long enough, it wouldn't take long for it to undergo Primal Reversion and return to its original form.
By then, Groudon would no longer be its match!
Just as Kyogre was preparing to find a place to settle down, a few figures suddenly flew out in front of it.
The Sky Dominator Rayquaza with its black dragon-shaped body,
A noble and elegant bird-type Pokémon with feathers as magnificent as a rainbow,
An anthropomorphic Pokémon with a large tail, surrounded by a terrifying spiritual power,
And a Pokémon with a crimson body, robust build, and wild gaze.
These four suddenly appeared Pokémon blocked Kyogre's path.
Kyogre was dumbfounded, a large question mark appeared above its enormous head.
Huh?
But soon, Kyogre saw a familiar figure on one of the Pokémon.
It was the human who suddenly intervened during its fight with Groudon!
How, how could this be?!
Kyogre was astonished.
It had no way to take on four at once!
Looking at so many Pokémon before it, confronting them would probably end badly.
What should it do?
Kyogre's mind raced rapidly.
At that moment, it heard the human opposite speak.
"You want to live on this tree too?"
Kyogre didn't know what to say, looking at Rayquaza and the other Pokémon opposite, it could only honestly admit: "Yes."
"You can stay," Naoki said.
If Kyogre also moved to the World Tree, it could be placed on the same layer as the Dragonites, and then transform the sea around Kyogre into a Primordial Sea, creating a Water Type Pokémon paradise.
