Cynthia received the photo and could not help revealing a bright smile.

Then she heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Please give me a copy of that photo too."

Cynthia’s body instantly stiffened.

She turned around and barely squeezed out a smile.

"Julian, you’re here..."

Julian raised an eyebrow.

"Am I not allowed to be?"

After giving Julian one copy of the photo, the stall owner raised her camera and said proudly, "Actually, I also work part-time as a photographer. The beach scenery here is beautiful."

"Would you like me to take a few more photos for you?"

Selling love tokens was her livelihood.

But photography was her passion.

Julian’s eyes lit up.

"Sure!"

Since they had come all the way to Alola, how could they not take more photos to bring back?

The stall owner immediately picked up her equipment.

"Anson, watch the stall for me. I’m going to take photos for the customers!"

Anson shook his head.

"Got it, July. Remember to come back early! Don’t keep pestering the customers to take just a few more shots."

It was not that she wanted to earn more money by taking extra photos.

She was simply addicted to photography.

Under the young woman July’s direction, Julian and Cynthia posed for photos in various corners of the beach.

As a female photographer, July focused on portraits.

She fully brought out the appearance of the handsome young man and beautiful young woman.

July frowned and said, "Julian, put a little more strength into the hand around Cynthia’s waist. Show your sense of strength."

"You’re already boyfriend and girlfriend. Why are you still so shy?"

Julian looked at Cynthia.

Cynthia still had that calm expression, neither taking the initiative nor refusing.

Julian took that as agreement and held her waist as they continued taking photos.

Julian blinked.

Wasn’t he pursuing Cassia?

How had he ended up flirting with Cynthia?

Even though Cynthia was Cassia, why did this give him a faint sense of guilt?

It was a little strange but also a little exciting.

A glint flashed in Julian’s eyes, and he suddenly thought of a good idea to tease Cynthia.

After taking so many photos, Cynthia carefully selected them, and only twelve were printed.

Holding the photos, Cynthia smiled with delight.

Julian suddenly thought of something.

"Cynthia, did we forget something?"

Cynthia’s expression instantly changed.

"Oh no. We forgot Hapu at the café!"

The two immediately hurried back.

Hapu showed no sign of impatience at all.

She sat calmly in the café eating dessert. When she saw the two of them, she happily waved.

"You’re back! Then hurry up and pay the bill!"

Julian and Cynthia had forgotten Hapu and secretly gone off to enjoy themselves. Hapu eating a few desserts on their tab was completely reasonable.

Julian paid generously.

"Hapu, is there anywhere suitable for Trainers and Pokémon to gather and eat together? You know we have quite a lot of people."

Hapu nodded.

"There’s a farm on Poni Island where you can experience picking crops, then have the food you picked made into your dinner."

"It’s just a little far. Would it be too late to go there now?"

Cynthia calculated the time.

"If we take Caitlin’s flying car, it should be just right."

Julian nodded.

"I’ll call everyone now and tell them to gather."

After making the calls, Julian asked, "Hapu, I plan to invite your grandad to this gathering. Is that alright?"

She shook her head.

"Grandpa rarely attends private gatherings like this. As kahuna, he says he must remain fair and impartial."

Julian understood.

"Once we reach Poni Island, I’ll invite the old man personally."

The group gathered together, and Darius also invited Hala.

As kahuna, Hala refused for roughly the same reason.

After arriving on Poni Island, Julian rode Miraidon to invite Sofu.

Sofu still did not want to come, but Julian looked at him sincerely.

"Old man, we’ll be returning to Sinnoh in a few days. Who knows when we’ll come back again?"

"You don’t need to have so many concerns."

Under Julian’s sincere gaze, Sofu finally agreed to come for dinner.

After the meal, Julian asked whether Kommonium Z could still be used for ordinary Z-Moves.

Sofu shook his head.

"No. But a Pokémon’s body can only withstand using one Z-Move, and the energy stored in a Z-Crystal likewise does not allow repeated use."

"If you want six Pokémon... to all use Z-Moves, then you’ll need to pass all the island challenge trials and obtain more Z-Crystals."

As Sofu spoke, he took out a Fightinium Z and handed it to Julian.

"You are the Gym Leader of a Fighting Gym, so this Fightinium Z will definitely be useful to you. Passing the kahuna’s trial naturally grants a Z-Crystal."

"This does not break the rules. As for Dragonium Z, you can only go find Kommo-o."

They rested at the farm for the night.

The next day, under Hapu’s guidance, everyone began touring Poni Island, the island with the most primitive scenery.

Julian brought gifts and went into the mountains to see Totem Kommo-o.

After Maylene heard Hapu introduce Poni Island’s Totem Ribombee and learned that Julian had not challenged it at all, she immediately proposed challenging Ribombee herself.

Hapu naturally agreed to take her.

Caitlin also wanted to challenge it.

Cynthia was somewhat tempted too.

Garchomp needed Totem Ribombee’s help to train Headlong Rush!

Julian went deep into Poni Canyon and met Totem Kommo-o. After he explained why he had come, Totem Kommo-o did not refuse.

He only asked Julian to make a large batch of the same Pokémon food as last time.

At first, Totem Kommo-o had only eaten it as a snack.

After all, it tasted good.

But after eating it continuously over the past few days, Totem Kommo-o discovered that this food actually helped condition his body.

It even helped his growth.

It was much better than randomly eating Berries from the canyon.

Julian not only helped make it, but also converted the rough ingredient ratios into the number of Berries and explained them to Totem Kommo-o.

Once the Pokémon food was finished, Totem Kommo-o could eat the Berries in those combinations.

The effect would be worse than a meal, but it would be much more convenient.

This was Totem Kommo-o’s first time learning that eating food actually involved so much knowledge.

He was clearly the Kommo-o here, and he had lived for hundreds of years, yet somehow Julian seemed to understand Kommo-o better than he did.

Julian’s Kommo-o had only evolved a few days ago.

In such a short time, had Julian’s understanding of really risen to this extent?

In truth, Julian’s deep understanding of Kommo-o came from breeding methods left behind by predecessors, his actual observations through Aura, and his own experience as a Trainer.

Only by combining all three had he reached this level.

After Julian finished making the Pokémon food, Totem Kommo-o stuffed a large handful into his mouth.

Yes!

This is the taste!

Kommo-o had long been unable to hold himself back and jumped out of his Poké Ball on his own.

He had been looking forward to another battle with Totem Kommo-o this whole time.

Seeing that Kommo-o’s aura had risen by a large margin, Totem Kommo-o was clearly stunned.

He looked at Julian.

Wait... what exactly did you feed him?

Julian introduced it casually.

"It’s nothing. Kommo-o simply battled a few experts over the past few days and fully awakened his potential."

Totem Kommo-o: "..."

He felt as though he had wasted the last few hundred years.
