I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

“Why do you people from the outside world do things so complicatedly? Don’t you know how to be flexible?” Xijiana said.

“I understand your thinking, but for now we can only wait. If you have a better solution, I can support you,” Xiao Mao said.

403: Infinite Energy Fluctuations

Higana sulked there. Although she really wanted to do something, she couldn't do anything at all. Even if she wanted to capture the president of the Great Violet Company, she didn't even know where he was.

"Hmph! Time to sleep."

Higana decisively gave up struggling and went to bed to rest. Now, the only thing she could do was to conserve her energy and prepare for the next move.

Xiao Mao also lay down on the bed to rest.

Early the next morning.

After getting up and having breakfast, Xiao Mao and Xijiana went to the control room to inquire about the situation.

Daigo was also in the control room.

"Daigo, is there any news?" Higanbana asked quickly when she saw Daigo.

"No," Daigo shook his head.

"Ah! Still no news..." Higana frowned, a whole day had passed and she still hadn't received any information.

“Higana, don’t worry. They want to study energy. As soon as they conduct energy experiments on the meteorite, I can pinpoint its location immediately. Besides, the meteorite was lost yesterday. I don’t think they can conduct experiments so quickly. Let’s wait a little longer,” Daigo said.

"Ok."

For the rest of the time, Shigeru 127 and Higana mostly stayed in the control room waiting for news, and would stand up and walk around when they got tired of sitting.

There was still no movement even by evening.

Inside the canteen of the energy research base.

Xiao Mao and Xijiana sat at the dining table eating. They waited all day, but there was still no news. Xijiana ate less.

Seeing that Higanbana was distracted, Daigo comforted her, "Higanbana, don't worry too much. Even if the meteorite is lost, you have to look forward."

“I understand, but I failed the trial this time, and I don’t know how to explain it to Grandma,” Xijiana said.

“Sigana, if you’re worried about this, you can take me to Meteor Village,” Daigo said.

Upon hearing this, Higana immediately became alert.

Having experienced the theft of the meteorite, Higana is now unusually sensitive, especially knowing that outside companies are researching the use of meteorites as energy, and that the village's rainbow meteorite will definitely be coveted by these people.

"Higana, you can rest assured that I won't force the people in your village if they don't want to, and I will keep the existence of Meteor Village a secret from the outside world." Daigo put on a kind smile (bbcj).

Shigeru believed Daigo's words to a certain extent.

Indeed, Daigo would not resort to violence against the Meteor Villagers, but if he knew that there were Rainbow Meteorites in Meteor Village, he would definitely ask them to take them out for research. However, he would do so in a gentler way, offering the Meteor Villagers various benefits in exchange for the Rainbow Meteorites.

Xiao Mao felt it was better to hand over the Rainbow Meteorite, otherwise the Meteor Clan would have to worry about being targeted by thieves all the time. It would be better to hand it over to the League for safekeeping.

Higanbana: →_→!

Higanbana is unlikely to trust Daigo now, unless Daigo can retrieve the meteorite.

"Daigo, we've found an energy signal!" Dr. Brock suddenly ran into the cafeteria and shouted.

Daigo, Gary, and Higanbana all stood up at the same time.

"Let's go to the control room."

The three of them quickly followed Dr. Brock into the control room.

“Just 15 minutes ago, we detected the presence of infinite energy in Waterway 108, but it was only fleeting and quickly dissipated,” Dr. Brock said.

Looking at the map on the screen, Xiao Mao saw that the area above Waterway 108 was at sea, with no islands around it.

Daigo also frowned as he looked at the screen.

As a former champion, Steven knows every part of the Hoenn region, including the sea.

To create infinite energy, a large research base is absolutely necessary, but the location where infinite energy appears now is at sea, and there should be no islands nearby.

Could it be that the Great Violet Company has built an energy research base at sea? But Daigo hasn't heard a word about it.

"Kuroda, go and investigate what activities the Great Violet Company is doing in the area," Daigo said.

"Yes!"

Kuroda immediately went to investigate.

"Shigeru, Higanbana, go search that area tomorrow. Whatever you encounter, I hope you can remain calm," Daigo reminded them.

"it is good!"

"no problem."

Xiao Mao and Xijiana agreed.

These words were actually meant for Higana, hoping that she could calm down and not act rashly.

In no time, Kuroda had investigated the matter in area 108.

“Young Master Daigo, the Great Violet Company does indeed have investments in Route 108. Three years ago, they invested in building an offshore energy harvesting platform to collect seabed energy,” Kuroda said.

"Are outsiders allowed over there?" Daigo asked.

"I don't know for now; I'll have to go and investigate in person to find out," Kuroda said.

"I understand. Go and make some preparations. We'll go over there tomorrow and pick someone up while we're at it," Daigo said.

"Yes."

Kuroda immediately withdrew.

"Daigo-san, who are we picking up tomorrow?" Shigeru asked.

After all, this matter concerns Meteor Village behind Higanbana, so Shigeru needs to find out who is involved in it.

“Mikori,” Daigo said.

“Mikoli! Who is he?” Higana asked in confusion.

Daigo was stunned for a moment. Even though Higanbana knew that he was the champion, why didn't she recognize Mikuri?

“Mikeli is the league champion,” Shigeru quickly clarified.

“Mickey is the league champion, but isn’t Daigo the league champion? Can there be two league champions?” Higana asked in surprise.

“No, Mr. Daigo is the former Hoenn League Champion, and Wallace is the current Hoenn League Champion,” Gary said.

When introducing the champion to Higanbana, only Daigo was introduced; Mikoto was not.

"Why? Mr. Daigo is so young, why would he become the former champion?" Higana asked, puzzled.

Although he doesn't understand the retirement system in the outside world, Daigo is so young that there is absolutely no need for him to retire.

"Hehe, this is my personal reason for resigning," Daigo said with an awkward laugh.

The early retirement of Steven shocked many people, after all, Steven became the Hoenn League Champion at the age of 16, making him the youngest champion.

Daigo resigned before he was even middle-aged, which surprised many people.

"Then why look for Mikoli?" Higana asked.

“Because Michael is the Hoenn League Champion, he has temporary investigative powers. If we want to investigate the Grand Violet Company’s offshore energy platform, we need the League’s approval documents, and only Michael can help us with that,” Daigo said.

404: Puppet Champion Mikoli

"I see. So Michael is just like Daigo." Because of her preconceived notions, Higana thought that Michael, like Daigo, was a reliable person.

“We only have the same position, but we are not the same,” Daigo said.

Shigeru knows Daigo and Michael very well. Although they are friends, they are not the same people.

While Mikkuri is strong, he's not the strongest. He's considered one of the weakest among the champions, perhaps only slightly stronger than Alder. However, Alder is older; his ace Pokémon died during a mission, and his main Pokémon are all getting old.

Daigo is very strong, ranked third in the world, only behind Leon and Cynthia.

Mikkuri's world rankings are so low that he can't even crack the top 10, which shows how bad he is, especially considering that he really did nothing during his time as champion.

Team Magma and Team Aqua sparked a major battle between Groudon and Kyogre, but the others were nowhere to be found, leaving Lance to step in and resolve the situation.

Even when the three ancient Pokémon were fighting over the Rainbow Meteor, it was Steven who intervened. Wallace was nowhere to be found again, making him a completely unqualified champion.

Mikuri's only appearances are related to the Coordination Tournament. If you're a Coordinator, don't just become a champion and join in the fun.

"Then you all get some rest. We need to move out first thing tomorrow morning," Daigo reminded them.

Xiao Mao and Xi Jiana both nodded and got up to go to their dormitory to rest.

Now that things were going smoothly, Higana felt much more at ease.

After a night.

The next day it was just dawn.

Daigo, along with Shigeru and Higanbana, boarded a helicopter and headed to Sapphire City.

We arrived in Violet City at 10 a.m.

Michael received a message from Daigo yesterday and is already waiting at the airfield here.

Mikoli was similar to Xiaoshige in his memory, wearing a purple crop top that showed off her abs, dressed in a flashy way.

Higana was also greatly shocked when she saw Mikuri. She nudged Shigeru's arm with her elbow and asked in a low voice, "Is he Mikuri?"

"Yes, Mikkuri is a Coordinator, and his aesthetic sense leans towards the flamboyant. Don't be prejudiced against him," Gary reminded him.

Although Shigeru also looked down on Michael, he was still a champion and his strength was not weak. Although he was at the bottom of the champion rankings, he could still be compared with most of the Elite Four.

"Daigo, why did you bring two children with you?" Mikuri asked, looking puzzled.

Yesterday on the phone, Miko Riko knew that Daigo was going to investigate the offshore energy harvesting platform of the Great Violet Company, and why he was bringing the two children along.

"McClure, this is Gary, Professor Oak's grandson."

"This is Higana, a member of the Meteor Dwellers, and a victim of this incident."

Daigo then introduced the two individuals.
