Not Being a Trainer This Time

[Shocking! Team Magma and Team Aqua’s actions in the Hoenn Region are actually for...]

With this eye-catching title, Naoki started editing the detailed content of the post below.

The situation over in the Hoenn Region isn’t complicated, and with Team Magma and Team Aqua opposing each other, it makes it relatively easy for him to muddy the waters.

Moreover, the Rotom in his Rotom Phone can provide a perfect signal blocking function for the phone, preventing others from locating him via network signals.

And in the Pokemon World, there’s no need to use real names online. In this case, no matter what he says online, no one will find him.

Thinking of this, Naoki’s hands quickly started typing on the keyboard.

[Just an outsider, talking about the recent fuss on the net regarding Team Aqua’s regular members provoking the Hoenn League, making a rational guess about Team Magma and Team Aqua’s rampage and their goals in the Hoenn Region.

As everyone knows, the Hoenn Region has a very ancient history of legends. I have checked the relevant materials, and according to the records in ancient ruins and artifacts, world-destroying events once occurred in the Hoenn Region.

The legendary Pokemon Groudon, known as the Earth God, and Kyogre, known as the Sea God.

One created the land, and the other created the sea. Thousands of years ago, they awoke once to fight a great war to expand their territories.

We won’t dwell on the battle’s results.

What I mainly want to talk about here is that Team Magma and Team Aqua, roaming the Hoenn Region, just happen to correspond to these two legendary Pokemon.

Legend has it that Groudon leaves magma veins in its path, which solidify into land, while Kyogre sends down torrential rains from the sky to engulf the land to expand the sea.

Magma for Groudon, Aqua for Kyogre.

Is it possible that these two organizations aim for Groudon and Kyogre?

And everything they’re doing in the Hoenn Region is all to awaken or capture these two legendary Pokemon.

If this speculation is accurate, then we can move on to the next prediction.

According to my investigation, Groudon and Kyogre’s appearance is said to cause weather changes. Groudon will make the temperature rise, causing intense sunlight, while Kyogre will cause torrential rains to fall from the sky.

If Team Magma and Team Aqua want to find where they’re located, then the next target for these two organizations may be the Weather Institute in the Hoenn Region.

As for Groudon, the Earth God, it is on land. As long as its location is confirmed, it can be found directly.

And Kyogre, the Sea God, must be asleep in the sea. To see it, a submarine capable of withstanding deep-sea pressure is needed.

So next, Team Aqua probably will target the Stern’s Shipyard in Slateport City.

As far as I know, it has the best shipbuilding technology in the entire Hoenn Region.

Hopefully, the evil plans of those two organizations will fail.

If Groudon and Kyogre are caught by them, the two organizations are likely to erupt in a great battle, possibly affecting the entire Hoenn Region.

If this really happens, there might be no choice but to go to the Sky Pillar to ask the Sky God Rayquaza to come out and stop them, just as recorded in the legends from thousands of years ago.

Alright, that’ll be it for today’s speculation. If you have any thoughts, you can leave a comment to let me know!]

After finishing the edits, Naoki clicked send, and the next second, the post was uploaded online and then automatically pushed to potentially interested individuals via the Pokemon Forum’s algorithm.

After doing this, Naoki switched away to watch Lono’s live stream.

Meanwhile, in the Hoenn Region, a glasses-wearing man who loves collecting historical legends suddenly saw the post while surfing online.

The man, named Jinhei, is a member of an association of legend enthusiasts, a place where a large group of people who enjoy researching local historical legends gather.

”Shocking, Team Magma and Team Aqua’s actions in the Hoenn Region are actually for... huh? What a strange post.”

Jinhei’s eyes were immediately drawn to the title.

He couldn’t help but click in, wanting to see what was so shocking.

But the next second, Jinhei saw something in the post that shocked him.

”The legendary Earth God Groudon and Sea God Kyogre?!”

”Magma for Groudon, Aqua for Kyogre... Could it be that Team Magma and Team Aqua are trying to recruit these two legendary Pokemon?”

”Holy crap!”

After the poster pointed it out, Jinhei suddenly realized this was very possible!

After all, those two organizations have been active in the Hoenn Region and haven’t caused any major incidents, nor have they posed a tricky problem for the Hoenn League so far.

All along, many thought Team Magma and Team Aqua were against the Hoenn League, but it now seems they might be after those two legendary Pokemon!

This speculation is incredibly bold, involving legendary Pokemon Groudon and Kyogre. Jinhei hurriedly shared this post in the group chat of the legend enthusiasts’ association.

Soon, the group chat burst into a quick discussion over the issue.

Some logged onto the forum to search for the post and leave comments under it, asking the poster if they knew any more information.

Word spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred.

This matter soon reached the ears of a Miss Jenny who was investigating Team Magma and Team Aqua.

After reading the post, Miss Jenny immediately reported the relevant information to the Hoenn League.

Quickly, in his mansion in Mossdeep City, while attending to Beldum, Steven saw the post online.

Steven Stone, the Hoenn Region’s Champion and also the young master of Devon Company, is admired for his handsome and charming appearance and strong capabilities, having many fans in the Hoenn Region.

At this moment, a look of surprise appeared on Steven’s handsome face.

Soon after, the Champion fell into deep thought.

Team Magma and Team Aqua, Groudon and Kyogre.

There seem to be some secretive connections between these.

No, it can’t be called secretive anymore. The Hoenn League’s interrogation of that Team Aqua member last time already showed some signs.

Were those two organizations aiming to awaken those two super ancient Pokemon?

Regarding this outcome, maybe because of previous speculations in his heart, Steven didn’t feel too surprised.

What surprised him was how accurately the poster predicted Team Magma and Team Aqua’s routes of action.

Several days prior, Steven had already heard from his father, Mr. Stone, about the Devon Company’s package being stolen.

That package contained critical parts for the Submarine Explorer 1, with Devon Company and Stern’s Shipyard in Slateport City pursuing a collaborative project to explore the ocean.

They plan to jointly create a more advanced submarine for deep-sea exploration.

Initially, Steven didn’t quite understand why those people would steal the components of the Submarine Explorer 1.

But now, it makes sense.

Thinking of this, Steven clicked on the poster’s profile page and sent a message using his account.

[Hello, I am the current Champion of the Hoenn Region, Steven Stone. I would like to discuss your post; could we meet?]

At the same time, in Team Magma and Team Aqua’s bases.

Maxie and Archie received reports from their subordinates and saw the post online.

Maxie calmly read through the entire post, a solemn expression on his face.

This person... is there a mole in Team Magma? Why do they know their plans so well?

”Boss, what should we do?” a subordinate asked.

Maxie adjusted his glasses with a calm voice, ”Activate the Alpha Plan.”

”Yes!”

On the other side, in Team Aqua’s base.

Archie stared at his phone, cursing under his breath:

”Damn it, who the hell is this? Is there a mole among us?”

The members of Team Aqua shook their heads repeatedly.

”It’s not me, Boss. You’ve been so good to us; how could we possibly betray Team Aqua!”

”If I find out who this guy is, stopping Team Aqua’s actions, I’ll make sure to teach him a lesson!” Archie snorted coldly.

”What should we do now, Boss?”

”The plan goes on as usual. I’ve received word that the Submarine Explorer 1 will soon be completed; when it’s ready, we’ll just sneak in and steal it... Hmph, no one can stop us!”
