This wasn't just affecting trainers and companies involved in the Pokémon business.
It also affected the evil organizations in those regions.
After all, they were all centered around Pokémon.
The World, Mystical Sea Island.
Several Class 1 legendary and mythical Pokémon, along with Class 2 legendary Pokémon, surrounded a Pikachu. This Pikachu looked peculiar, with red markings.
It was clearly a tough guy.
And who else could this Pikachu be but Ye Feng's Red-Marked Pikachu?
"Hmm, the Pokémon you guys caught today are quite good."
Beside the Red-Marked Pikachu was a pile of unconscious wild Pokémon.
Dark Lugia and the others had caught them.
Kyurem and Dark Lugia watched in horror as the Red-Marked Pikachu ate Pokémon.
While they were gradually getting used to it, they still found it hard to accept. They looked at Hoopa Unbound.
Hoopa Unbound's mouth twitched as well.
But there was nothing they could do.
The Red-Marked Pikachu was indeed powerful, accomplishing things they couldn't.
In front of them was a television.
This was something they specifically acquired from humans.
The television was broadcasting the incidents caused by the Red-Marked Pikachu.
Specifically, the attacks on humans by wild Pokémon.
"It's a pity my power isn't strong enough yet. I can only affect the weaker and ordinary ones. The stronger the Pokémon, the less they are affected by me."
Catching a Cherry-Blossom-like fish, the Red-Marked Pikachu swallowed it whole.
The Red-Marked Pikachu could drive all Pokémon into a frenzied bloodlust.
However, there were simply too many Pokémon in this world.
Its power was barely enough to cover them.
The impact on stronger Pokémon was much smaller.
"Boss Pikachu, it's okay. For now, this is enough to give those humans a headache," said Hoopa Unbound.
"Yes, yes. Boss Pikachu, when can you help me with that matter I mentioned?"
Kyurem looked at the Red-Marked Pikachu. Even it, who never fawned over anyone, was forced to do so.
There was no other choice.
The injuries on it and Dark Lugia were healed by the Red-Marked Pikachu.
"Oh, oh, you mean that matter?"
"Reshiram and Zekrom, which one do you want to fuse with?"
Kyurem said, "Zekrom."
The Tao Dragons: Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem.
Legend said the three dragons were originally one.
Kyurem could fuse with either of the other two.
Becoming White Kyurem or Black Kyurem.
Kyurem had long wanted to fuse with one of the other two dragons.
But it lacked confidence.
However, today it could rely on the Red-Marked Pikachu.
The Red-Marked Pikachu said, "Oh."
Kyurem said, "Alright, let's go then."
Kyurem and Dark Lugia turned to leave, intending to find Zekrom.
But they saw the Red-Marked Pikachu not moving.
Kyurem asked, "Boss Pikachu, what's wrong?"
The Red-Marked Pikachu replied, "I only asked which one you wanted to fuse with, but I never agreed to help you fuse."
Kyurem was stunned and filled with resentment.
But it didn't dare to say anything more, only watching the Red-Marked Pikachu say:
"What nonsense about Reshiram and Zekrom! What's the point of fusing them? They're all trash."
"My power is the true king. You guys go and catch more wild Pokémon!"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Hoopa Unbound and the others quickly retreated.
After retreating to other areas.
"Damn it! This yellow rat! How dare it trick me!"
Kyurem was furious.
Hoopa Unbound said, "Actually, I didn't recommend you fusing with either of those two."
"After all, the power increase isn't that significant, and you don't have full control over the dominant position."
"But I must say, the yellow rat is strong enough right now. That's enough."
"We can only endure it. Of course, if you don't want to endure, there's nothing you can do. You saw it yourself, the few of us together aren't even enough for it to gnaw on."
"It really eats Pokémon!"
Hoopa Unbound swore that in its long life, it had never seen such a terrifying Pokémon.
Even Arceus, it felt, would be a mere child in front of this yellow rat.
...
Pallet Town.
Pallet Town was bustling with people at this time.
In Professor Oak's Laboratory.
Professor Oak of Kanto, Professor Elm of Johto, Professor Birch of Hoenn, and others.
These renowned Pokémon Professors were gathered here.
In addition to them were a large number of biology doctors, chemistry doctors, and medical doctors.
In short, these top talents, figures who were usually renowned in academia, were all here.
These were people who could drive human development forward, individuals who could be written into textbooks.
Logically, with so many people gathered here, there was nothing they couldn't solve.
But today, a problem had arisen.
"Esteemed Professors, the analysis results are out."
"After sampling a thousand wild Pokémon of different species, examining their blood, fur, genes, etc., no abnormalities were found."
A researcher presented their report.
This group of people was all studying the incident of wild Pokémon attacking humans worldwide.
"Could it be some kind of very hidden virus that can't be detected? Otherwise, it's truly inexplicable that so many Pokémon have become like this."
Professor Birch suggested.
The group fell silent.
Professor Oak said, "It doesn't seem like it. If it were a viral infection, why are the Pokémon in my preserve unaffected? And haven't you noticed? It seems only wild Pokémon are affected this time?"
The others nodded.
Professor Elm said, "Then what's going on? We've checked everything, it doesn't make sense."
Among the figures in white coats, there was a slender figure.
It was Leaf, Professor Oak's granddaughter.
She said at this moment:
"If it's not their bodies being affected, could it be their minds?"
"Minds..."
The mind had always been a difficult challenge for humans to overcome.
"It's possible, but if it's the mind, what caused it? Something that could cause all the Pokémon in the world to act out?"
"And if it really is a mental issue, then we are helpless."
"After all, we haven't made much progress in understanding the human mind, and we still have a pile of patients suffering from mental illnesses..."
This was said by a medical doctor.
"Sigh, so what do we do about this?"
Someone else grumbled in distress.
"Since we can't solve it, let's ask others," said Gary.
The others looked at Gary, "We are all top scholars in academia, who else do you expect us to ask?"
Gary clenched his fist, "There are too many unknown things in the world."
"We might not be able to solve them even in a lifetime."
"Since these Pokémon are having problems, let's go and ask them."
"Let's seek out those legendary Pokémon. This might be our only chance."
The others found this reasoning to be sound.
After all, those legendary Pokémon knew many secrets unknown to humans, and perhaps they would know what had happened this time.
"As expected of Professor Oak's grandson and granddaughter! To come up with such a solution! Truly a young hero!"
"Yes, heroes emerge from the young!"
One person praised, followed by a chorus of agreement.
Gary scratched his head sheepishly.
Leaf remained calm.
She knew that the praise from these people was actually a nod to her grandfather's reputation.
If an ordinary researcher had proposed these ideas today,
There wouldn't have been so much praise!
