Julian raised an eyebrow.

This so-called abandonment by time meant Cogita was ageless and undying, able to continue living forever?

Cogita glanced at Goodra, then looked at Julian.

"I didn’t expect to still see a Hisuian Goodra in this era."

"You... are a very unique person. Fate drove Goodra to meet you."

Julian looked at Goodra fondly.

"Being able to meet Goodra was my fortune."

Julian suddenly thought of something.

"Since there are many Pokémon from the Hisui era living here, then there must be Goodra too, right?"

Hearing Julian’s words, Goodra also revealed an expectant expression.

Cogita nodded.

"There are. Some Pokémon from the Hisui era were buried in the dust of history, and Goodra was among them."

"But here, I happen to have some. They live in a lake region from the past. You can go and take a look later."

Cynthia looked at Cogita curiously.

"The ancestor you mentioned, Volo, was someone from the Hisui era, right?"

"In the Hisui era, were there many rare Pokémon?"

Cogita nodded.

"That’s right. Volo launched his plan during the Hisui era, when the gods had not yet fully hidden themselves away."

"As for unique Pokémon from the Hisui era, there were indeed some, but not too many. Most Pokémon could still be seen in this era."

"There was a scholar who, with the help of one blessed by a deity, compiled a Pokédex of the Hisui era."

"I remember that I have a copy stored in my home. You may take a look."

Cogita looked to the left side of the pavilion.

A tall-stemmed flower with red-and-white blossoms suddenly transformed into a Pokémon.

"Zoroark, go to the room and bring the Hisui Pokédex."

Seeing Cynthia’s surprised expression, Zoroark giggled, then bounced back to the villa to fetch the Pokédex.

Cynthia could not wait to ask, "What type of Pokémon is the Hisuian form of Zoroark?"

Cogita smiled faintly.

"You’ll be able to see the Pokédex very soon. Don’t be impatient. Have some tea."

Cogita looked at Garchomp, who was standing quietly behind Cynthia.

"Thinking back, Volo’s strongest Pokémon back then was also a Garchomp."

"And the Pokémon Volo used can all be found in this era."

Cynthia patiently took a sip of tea and simply refused to answer.

Cogita had told her to calm her mind just now. Now she would not continue the conversation. Let us see how Cogita continued speaking.

Unexpectedly, Cogita also lowered her head and drank tea, saying nothing.

Julian smiled.

"May I ask which Pokémon Sir Volo specialised in?"

Cynthia glanced at Julian.

Is he your ancestor? Why are you calling him that so respectfully?

Seeing Julian and Cynthia like this, Cogita smiled knowingly.

"Speaking of Volo’s Pokémon, I remember he had Spiritomb, Roserade, Togekiss, Lucario, and Garchomp."

Cogita suddenly shook her head.

"I forgot. He also trained a Hisuian Arcanine. Not every Pokémon still exists in this current era."

"I’m old. Some things are no longer clear in my memory."

At this moment, Zoroark returned and handed Cogita a book filled with the aura of history, yet preserved extremely well.

Then Zoroark transformed into Cogita’s appearance, used an empty teacup to pour herself tea, and imitated Cogita’s manner as she elegantly took a sip.

Zoroark really were all the same.

True imitators through and through.

Cogita handed the Pokédex to Cynthia.

"Take it and read. The knowledge you want is all inside."

Cynthia could not wait to accept it and open it.

For the Pokémon that still existed now, Cynthia temporarily skipped over them. She focused on looking at the Hisuian Pokémon that had basically gone extinct.

But among the first nine Pokémon, there were actually three regional forms.

Placing the Grass, Fire, and Water Pokémon suitable for beginner Trainers at the very front...

This experienced method of compiling a Pokédex made Cynthia unable to help feeling somewhat suspicious.

Was this really a Pokédex written by an ancient person?

Cogita smiled and explained, "Didn’t I say the Pokédex received help from one blessed by a deity? This order of compilation came from her suggestion."

"This Pokédex itself was also a gift she gave me."

Cynthia was somewhat surprised.

"You mean that person blessed by a deity was very likely someone from our era?"

Cogita nodded.

"That young girl suffered quite a bit in the Hisui era. In the end, she calmed the space-time disturbance caused by Volo."

Cynthia felt a little embarrassed.

She had not expected her ancestor to have been a villain who caused chaos in the Hisui era.

Cynthia lowered her head and seriously read the Hisui Pokédex.

This Decidueye really was Decidueye.

"Precisely because of the disturbance Volo caused, that person blessed by a deity allowed the humans and Pokémon of that era to eliminate their estrangement and jointly create the splendid era of today."

Cynthia obediently stopped speaking, then lightly kicked Julian, signalling him to continue the conversation.

Julian smiled faintly.

"Chaos makes it easier to break everything old and reconstruct a completely new order."

"Sir Volo must have had grand ideals. Although he ultimately failed, there is still much worth reflecting on."

Cogita sighed.

"The strength of mortals ultimately cannot resist the arrangements of fate."

What she called the arrangements of fate were, in truth, fate arranged by someone.

Everything in the Hisui era had long since been clearly planned by Arceus.

What Julian meant by reflection was that Volo had clearly known Arceus was the great deity of Sinnoh, yet still dared to collect the plates and attempt to kill a god.

That bold and reckless spirit, that courage to draw a blade against the strong...

It was very worth learning from.

Cynthia suddenly spoke.

"The archery move Decidueye used just now was actually his signature move, Triple Arrows, a Fighting-type move."

"Can Decidueye in this era learn that move?"

When it involved Pokémon, Cynthia became somewhat absorbed.

Cogita thought for a moment.

"They probably cannot. I have done some research on Pokémon, and I have studied Pokémon of the Hisui era and their modern alternate forms."

"Some moves lost in the Hisui era can actually still be mastered by modern Pokémon. If you need them, I can write down the training methods for these moves."

"But exactly which Pokémon can master them will require you to test one by one."

Cynthia’s eyes lit up.

"We aren’t afraid of hard work. But would it be too much trouble for you?"

Cogita smiled.

"No one has entered this place for many years. If you are willing, you may stay for a while."

Julian smiled and nodded.

"The scenery here is beautiful. If possible, I really would like to stay here for some time."

Cynthia held the Hisui Pokédex.

"May I take photos?"

She nodded.

"There are many empty rooms in the villa. Let Zoroark arrange them for you. Stay at ease. It won’t delay your work outside."

Zoroark, who had transformed into Cogita, blinked playfully.

"By the way, Goodra’s habitat is to the east. While I’m writing the move manuals, you can go and take a look."

"Let Zoroark act as your guide."
