Pokémon: Rise of Evil

Chapter 449: Legend of the God Chapter of Sinnoh

After a night's rest, Shota took the three girls to Shuimai City in order to learn more about the basics of Sinnoh mythology and make it easier to deal with Sister Baicai in the future.

Shuimai City is made up of a series of islands connected by bridges.

Transportation is mainly by boat, as there are many dead ends in the city, making it difficult to find routes to adjacent islands; there are also boat rides to Mutong Town, Manyue Island, and Steel Island.

But sometimes, the boats to Full Moon Island go to another unknown island, which the locals call Crescent Moon Island.

According to what Shota had inquired about, ever since the Crescent Moon Island appeared, someone has been having nightmares every year, and people are terrified by this. The rich have obtained the feathers of the dream goddess Cresselia through some means and can sleep peacefully every night, while people below the middle class can only suffer from nightmares every year, but this state will not last long, and it is likely to be once a year.

Moreover, the middle and lower class elderly people here look like they are over 80 years old, but in fact they are only 50 years old, but they act like they are 80 years old and terminally ill.

"It seems that some minor details cannot be judged according to the animation in the previous life."

Shota was walking down the street, muttering to himself, carrying a dozen breakfasts in his hands, on his way back to the hotel.

Walking down the street, you can see the iconic abandoned building, Mori-no-Yoga-kan, from a distance.

It was an unmanned building near the exit of Baidai Forest. If my guess was correct, this was where Pluto, the top scientist of Team Galaxy, used to live. Now it has become the residence of some ghost-type Pokémon and Rotom.

"Maybe we should catch a few dozen to study when we leave."

As he thought this, Shota opened the door with the room card.

Before he could say anything, the breakfast in his hand disappeared.

"Shota, you're so slow to come back. I'm starving."

Looking at Gardevoir who was eating with big mouthfuls of food, Shota touched her little head lovingly.

Diane, who was working nearby, glanced at this calmly, then returned her gaze to the computer, but her head was shaking up and down.

Shota also touched her little head, and Diane stopped swaying up and down.

Xiaochun, who was sitting aside reading a fashion magazine, looked up from the magazine, rolled her eyes at the three people, and then looked at the clothes she had been eyeing.

"I'm going to the library. For lunch, you can just eat at the hotel buffet."

The three of them replied "OK" in unison, but Gardevoir secretly planted a mental mark on herself. She seemed to think that they didn't know and continued to eat with big mouthfuls of food, with a silly look in her eyes.

Shota smiled as he turned around and used teleportation to leave the hotel.

"As expected of a first-level god, she can become stronger by eating, but I don't want to feed her energy cubes. After all, in my eyes, she is not a so-called Pokémon. Otherwise, I can buy some berries next time. Although they are not refined, with the first-level god's qualifications, the so-called impurities will not have any impact at all."

Shota stroked his chin and walked into the Water Pulse Library thinking.

Shuimai Library is located in the northwest of Shuimai City.

In the game, this library is the only library in the Sinnoh region. It contains many books, including books about "Sinnoh Legends".

The purpose of Shota's visit today was for this so-called myth and legend.

Sinnoh Mythos is a book about Emrido.

This is similar to the ancient poem 18 in the previous Switch game "Legend of Arceus". However, this ancient poem is not in the library.

"Don't be angry, or else... it will come. Don't be sad, or else... it will find you.

Joy and enjoyment, this ordinary life, is what we call happiness.

"This way we can get the blessing of Master???" Everyone always says this.

These are the contents of the book, but the question marks have not been translated, so people can only make rough guesses about their meaning.

After Shota used his supernatural powers to record the contents of the entire book, he digested it in his mind and began to read other books.

One of the articles caught Shota's attention. It was about why Pokémon appeared in the grass.

The mythology of the Sinnoh region explains why wild Pokémon appear in the grass.

Part of it also coincides with the plot of the animation "Ash and Serena's First Date!? The Tree of Promise and the Gift!!"

The ancient poem in the Legend of Arceus19 is similar to this myth.

"A long, long time ago, when Sinnoh was born, Pokémon and humans gave each other gifts and supported each other.

Later, a Pokémon told the other Pokémon that in order to help humans at any time, Pokémon should appear in front of humans more often.

From then on, whenever a human entered the bush, the Pokémon would jump out.”

This is a bit childish, Shota thought to himself, put the book back on the shelf, and started looking for the next one.

The next book is called "The Myth of Sinnoh".

“Once there were three Pokémon.

They held their breath and went deeper into the lake. Although it was painful, they kept diving down. They dived to the bottom of the lake and retrieved something important.

It is said that this is the power needed to create the earth."

From this we can see that "The Mythology of Sinnoh" is a book about the Pokémon of the lake legend. These so-called Pokémon of the lake legend are also commonly known as the Three Lake Gods or the Three Sacred Mushrooms.

It is a collective term for the legendary Pokémon Uxie, Emrido, and Akonome.

They live in the three major lakes in the Sinnoh region. Legend has it that Ushi brought "wisdom" to humans, Emrido taught humans "emotions", and Akonom gave humans "will".

In the memories of the previous life, the stone inscriptions in the Sinnoh region said that after Arceus created the mythical Pokémon that shaped the material world, he also created the lake legend Pokémon that shaped the spiritual world.

According to the illustrated guide, the Pokémon of the Lake Legend hatched from an egg. They once flew around and gave humans the "wisdom" that makes life colorful, the "emotions" of sadness and happiness, and the "willpower" to make up their minds to do things well.

Now they are sleeping at the bottom of the lake, maintaining the balance of the world.

According to Sinnoh legend, the God of Knowledge, Uxie, has the ability to erase the memory of those who meet his eyes; the God of Emotions, Emrido, has the ability to eliminate all emotions of creatures that come into contact with it; and the God of Will, Aknom, has the ability to cause harm to it. The ability of a creature to become immobile.

And there are many details about this legendary lake Pokémon.

In the Sinnoh region, the three lakes where the Pokémon of the Lake Legend live can form an equilateral triangle, with Mount Tianguan at the center of the triangle.

And the Pokémon of Lake Legend may be derived from the three-character word "knowledge, emotion and will" and the three sacred treasures of Shintoism: the Eight-foot Mirror (knowledge), the Eight-foot-Naniwa Magatama (benevolence) and the Sword of Ame-no-Kume (courage); the colors on their heads are the traditional three primary colors of pigments.
