Pokémon: Standing at the Silver Conference at the Beginning.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Latias, Charizard!"

After arriving at the woods on the plateau, Ash retrieved the two Pokémon.

Considering that Xiaoguang has never experienced traveling on a Pokémon, they have been flying in the air for a long time and now they should give their bodies some rest and stretching.

It's time to move your lower body and feel the warmth and solidity of the earth.

"Xiaozhi, are we not there yet?"

"Why, you can't wait?"

Xiaozhi looked at her with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

"Of course. When I get there, I will prepare for the glamour contest. Which dress should I wear this time?"

Xiaoguang was in high spirits and had completely recovered from the frustration of the Fate Conference!

Xiaozhi smiled fondly, and immediately turned his attention to the hillside where buildings were gradually revealed, "Okay, look, we've arrived at Baiyang Town!"

The terrain of Baiyang Town is very unique. It is surrounded by valleys on the plateau, with mountain streams all over the ground below, forming lakes on the plateau!

but…

When they reached the edge of the cliff, they realized that they seemed to have gone in the wrong direction and the bridge was on the other side of the valley.

Just as Xiaozhi was about to summon Charizard and Latias again, a crisp voice sounded in the sky, "Hi~"

Looking up, they saw a young lady with blonde hair waving at them, descending in a hot air balloon. "Do you two need any help?"

Xiaozhi recognized the person. He remembered that in the movie, this young lady had a close connection with Darkrai!

However, his attention was soon drawn to the familiar figure beside the other person, a girl with short purple hair, who was holding a little fire monkey in her arms.

"Lila?"

Xiaozhi blinked.

"Long time no see, Ash, Pikachu!"

Lila greeted happily, her face full of joy of reunion!

After the hot air balloon landed, Xiaozhi and Xiaoguang boarded it.

"I thought you were in town. I didn't expect you to appear in this way."

Hearing this, Lila's fair cheeks turned a little pink. She couldn't tell Xiaozhi directly.

Is it because I missed him so much that I came out to look for him?

At this moment, Lila felt a gaze, Xiaoguang was looking at her with curiosity.

"My name is Lila, hello." Lila walked up to Xiaoguang and extended her hand.

"Ah, hello, my name is Xiaoguang!"

Xiaoguang shook it, and Lila continued, "I heard about it from Xiaogang. Please give me more advice in the future."

"Later?" Xiaoguang was a little confused.

Suddenly, the little fire monkey in Lila's arms jumped onto her shoulders and sprayed a flame towards the bottom of the hot air balloon. The hot air balloon quickly rose into the air and floated towards Baiyang Town against the wind.

"So the pilot of the hot air balloon is here."

Xiaozhi suddenly found it interesting, and he realized that this hot air balloon did not have an ignition device.

It seems that the entire operation of the hot air balloon depends on this well-behaved little fire monkey.

"Is this the lady's Pokémon?"

Xiaozhi looked at the blonde girl, "Hello, I'm Xiaozhi from Pallet Town."

Because Lila is using a psychic-type Pokémon and Charmeleon is from the Sinnoh region, she naturally won't be the owner.

"Hello, my name is Alice!" said the blonde girl with a smile.

After the group got to know each other, they started chatting and quickly became familiar with each other.

"Xiao Guang, this is the gift I brought you from Kanto!"

Lila took out a glass Pokémon and Pikachu from her shoulder bag. They were crystal clear and lifelike!

"Wow!"

Xiao Guang's eyes lit up immediately and he exclaimed, "It's so realistic, it feels like a real Pokémon!"

"Lila, did you go to the Orange Islands?"

Xiaozhi played with the handicraft in his hand, remembering that this was something that was produced in abundance on Ponkan Island.

"Xiaozhi is really well-informed. Xiaoxi happened to be traveling in the Orange Islands, so I went there to meet her first. This was made by Mr. Gong from Ponkan Island!"

"Tsundere... Xiaoxi went to the Kanto region again?"

"Well, it seems that they are preparing to challenge the Southern Cross Alliance. They said they want to walk your path, Xiaozhi."

Lila gave a meaningful smile.

"So, Xiaozhi, do you also know Xiaoxi?" Alice asked with a little surprise.

"Also? Could it be..." Xiaozhi's words revealed some doubt.

"Yes."

Alice nodded with a smile. "She came to Poplar Town when she was a child. She was a lively and lovely child. We had a great time together."

“That’s why when Lila and I met, we hit it off so well.”

Xiaozhi suddenly realized and showed a helpless smile on his face, "This girl has a really large circle of friends. She is worthy of being Mr. Genji's granddaughter."

No wonder Lila and Alice appear together, it turns out this is their common point.

"Although I usually study music, I occasionally use this hot air balloon as a guide!"

Maybe that's how Lila met her.

After she finished speaking, she took out a leaf from her pocket and gently put it to her lips.

Before long, beautiful melody began to flow out, melodious and pleasant to the ear.

The music drifted with the breeze in the valley, across the clear lake, and attracted many flying Pokémon to gather.

Xiaozhi and the others closed their eyes slightly, enjoying the comfort of the moment.

When the song ended, the flying-type Pokémon all chirped loudly and flew forward.

“They tell me which way the wind is blowing.”

Alice smiled and said, looking at the flight path, the wind should be heading straight to Baiyang Town, so she looked up and called out, "Little Fire Monkey, sorry to bother you!"

"Mm~"

The little fire monkey responded and sprayed out flames. The hot air balloon sped up at full speed and soon approached Baiyang Town!

The first thing that catches your eye is the huge building standing in the center of the town.

"That must be the Tower of Time and Space!"

Xiaoguang lay on the edge of the hanging basket with sparkling eyes.

They had seen the model at the Baidai Museum, so they were able to recognize it at first glance!

"Yes, this was designed by the genius architect Gaudi a hundred years ago, and it is also the venue for this magnificent competition!"

Alice learned the purpose of Xiaozhi and others' trip from the previous conversation and introduced them to them.

“That’s great!”

Xiaoguang said with emotion that she couldn't help but be excited to be able to participate in the gorgeous competition in such a meaningful place!

Suddenly, Xiaozhi and Pikachu sensed something and shouted, "Everyone squat down and lean against the hanging basket!"

The three girls heard this, but before they could react, a hurricane blew up from the sky, tossing the hot air balloon all over the place, and the people were immediately frightened and lost their composure!

Xiaozhi hurriedly pulled Xiaoguang and Lila into his arms, and the next moment Alice bumped into them head-on, and the four of them fell into the hanging basket together!
