The Sudden "Asura Field"!

"Hello, Friede." Jing He came back to his senses and greeted him.

"You're...?"

Friede had not expected to run into the renowned Teacher Jing He right at the school gates. After his surprise passed, he said, "I'm here to apply for a teaching position."

"A teacher?"

Oh, right.

Jing He remembered that although Friede appeared in the anime Pokémon Horizons—

And investigated incidents in the Paldea Region, such as the "Six Heroes" and the "Rakua Element"—

At the end of the day, Friede was still from Kanto Region.

"That's right." Friede scratched his head with a smile. "My teacher recommended that I come here. She has some connection with the dean."

In the anime, Friede was one of the founders of the Rising Volt Tacklers, as well as a Pokémon Doctor.

And he was not the kind of Pokémon Doctor devoted solely to research. He was a "Battle Pokémon Doctor," with considerable strength and ability.

Like Kukui, he had achieved quite a bit in both battling and research.

His teacher, Luka, was also a teacher and likewise from Kanto Region. After getting married, however, she had moved to the Paldea Region.

Friede's teacher, Luka, was also the mother of Liko, one of the protagonists of Pokémon Horizons; the great-granddaughter of Lucius, the founder of the Explorers and owner of the Six Heroes; and Lystall.

As for the Explorers, that was rather complicated.

In the anime, they were an evil organization in the Paldea Region. Yet when they were first founded, they had not been created for evil purposes. They had been a team established by Lucius, Lystall, and Gibeon to explore and investigate Rakua Paradise.

Later, however, something happened between Lucius and Lystall. The Explorers eventually fell under the control of the scheming Gibeon and gradually became an evil organization.
