The dark clouds that surrounded the Galar region a few days ago were detected by several nearby areas.
Residents of the coastal areas of the Kalos Region and the surrounding islands could even see with the naked eye that the sky over the Galar region was overcast.
The official explanation from the Galar League's public relations department was that an alien calamity lurking in the Galar region had appeared, but fortunately, Galar was protected by Legendary Pokémon, and everything has now been resolved.
As for what exactly the extraterrestrial calamity was, Oleana did not provide a further explanation.
About two days after the Galar crisis ended, two major news stories were released in quick succession in the Galar region.
The first one concerns the current president of the Galar League Rose himself.
The recent Eternatus crisis destroyed some residential buildings in Hammerlocke and turned the Hammerlocke Stadium into ruins. His failure to make adequate security preparations beforehand led to a crisis in the Galar region.
As Punishment, Rose himself is willing to give up the Rose Tower to the Galar region as Trial Tower, similar to the Battle Frontier in other regions, for free use by Pokémon Trainer of Beginner King level and above.
At the same time, Rose temporarily stepped down from his position as the Pokémon League President, Rose will serve as the acting president until a new Pokémon League President is elected.
But in reality, anyone with a discerning eye knows there won't be a new chairman. Although Rose made a mistake in this operation, his judgment was also a lucky accident.
The energy problem in the Galar region has now been solved, but other issues still depend on Rose.
Next is the second major piece of news from the Galar region: the Galar League has announced that they also have their own battle system in Galar.
The Galar League didn't reveal the secret of Mega Evolution under duress from a coalition of regions like the Kalos League.
Rose generously revealed the entire process of Dynamax, including how the interaction between Wishing Star and the Dynamax Factor of Red Energy Particles can make Pokémon grow to a huge size.
As for why he took the initiative to disclose it, it wasn't because Rose was particularly selfless; it was because Rose knew that even if the other regions knew about the Dynamax process, they wouldn't be able to replicate it.
Only the Galar region possesses Eternatus can release Dynamax Factor, resulting in the Dynamax phenomenon in Pokémon.
After Eternatus's fall, countless Dynamax Factor scattered across the Galar region, causing the air to be filled with red energy particles.
The Dynamax Band automatically absorbs the red energy particles, replenishing the Wishing Star's energy and allowing the Pokémon to Dynamax in battle.
In contrast, Mega Evolution can only occur when specific Pokémon possess both Key Stone and Mega Stone, and when the Pokémon Trainer and the Pokémon are in sync.
Dynamax is possible for all Pokémon, and all Pokémon Trainer can use it after equipping the Dynamax Band. Dynamax is highly versatile in battles and competitive play, and it consumes much less stamina than Mega Evolution.
Therefore, it would be better to just announce it openly. This would attract a lot of attention to Galar, and Pokémon Trainer from many regions would come to explore Dynamax, thereby driving the development of the Galar region.
Once Pokémon Trainer who came to the Galar region experienced the benefits of Dynamax and discovered that Dynamax was not possible in other regions, it became only natural for them to stay in the Galar region.
Champion Leon also announced that Dynamax Battle would be introduced into battles in the Galar region, eliminating regular Gym and building Dynamax Arena in various cities, each four times the size of a regular Arena.
Then came a ten-minute promotional video.
The video shows Gigantamax Charizard havoc on the battlefield, Gigantamax Duraludon Spit Up silver energy waves from its skyscraper-like body, and Gigantamax Alcremie...
At the end of the video, a Poké Ball appears in Oleana's hand. When she touches the Dynamax Band on her wrist, a huge, glowing Poké Ball appears in Oleana hand.
Oleana flung the giant Poké Ball out of her hand, and a Gigantamax Long Meowth, several tens of meters tall, appeared, quickly sparking widespread discussion.
The Galar region immediately surged to the top of the IQ trending list, reaching peak popularity.
Anyone who sees Pokémon the size of a typical seven or eight-story building would be stunned for a moment.
To show his sincerity, Rose even had his secretary Oleana, announce the latest research on Max Soup, which can allow some Pokémon to Gigantamax.
Furthermore, Oleana also revealed how to make Max Soup and its recipe.
After all, Max Mushrooms are a special type of mushroom that grows under the influence of the Dynamax Factor, so Max Mushrooms Galar region.
Furthermore, Max Mushrooms are not easy to collect; each Max Mushrooms is guarded by a powerful Pokémon.
To obtain Max Mushrooms, you need the Pokémon that guard it.
As for why they announced it so quickly, the Galar League simply wanted to let other regions know that the Galar region also has its own unique battle system, thereby increasing the Galar region's visibility.
What Rose didn't know was that someone else was secretly laughing through the screen.
"Pfft~~"
Roy glanced casually at the newly modified Trial Tower image on IQ, and couldn't help but burst into laughter at the first glance.
Rose actually placed a Giratina and a statue of Dialga in front of the Trial Tower.
Shouldn't the guardian deities of the Galar region be Zamazenta and Zacian?
If all else fails, there's always Calyrex, isn't there?
What's with all these statues of the Time God and the God of Distortion World?
Roy wondered if Zacian and Zamazenta would be furious if they saw those two statues.
But now was not the time for laughter. Roy, holding the Communicator, watched as Oleana added Max Mushrooms and various ingredients to the golden Dynamax Pot and stirred it well.
The energy of the various materials was neutralized and mixed for a full eight hours, resulting in a Max Soup was purple with pink undertones.
It's like searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly.
He had originally planned to wait a year before going to Galar to find the recipe for Max Soup, but now it seems that's no longer necessary.
In order to create the Max Soup, Roy took two days off from Bruno and came to the Joy family to prepare the ingredients. Of course, the price for taking the leave was that he would have to undergo devil-level training.
The thought of carrying the Dusclops all over the mountains when he got back made his legs weak. No, he should starve the Dusclops for a while to lose weight so that he could feel a little lighter later.
No, before leaving, Bruno also made him leave the Dusclops at the Fighting Dojo.
Now, the Dusclops is a prop for the entire dojo; Bruno's Machamp requires him to carry the Dusclops during his daily training under the waterfall.
It seems there's no escaping the grueling training.
Sigh~
Let's make the Max Soup first.
Roy took out the purple Max Mushrooms from his Spatial Bracelet and examined the video frame by frame, observing what ingredients Oleana had in her hands.
It was discovered that the auxiliary materials were only some rather special kinds of Berry, such as Ganlon Berry, Xiangluo Berry, etc.
Max Soup definitely needs some additional ingredients to neutralize its energy. Luckily, he didn't just stew the Max Mushrooms in the pot, or he would have regretted it to death.
Although these Berry are relatively rare, what kind of Berry or cultivation material couldn't the Joy family, a family renowned for its expertise in cultivation, provide here?
Roy used the excuse of making Pokéblock to retrieve the ingredients needed for Max Soup from the Joy family's warehouse, and also borrowed a large pot that was usually used for making soup from the Joy family's kitchen.
The kitchen staff at the Joy family canteen is an elderly Nurse Joy who also knows Roy. When Roy eats dinner at their family's canteen, he can eat the equivalent of 20 Nurse Joy in one meal, which greatly increases her workload.
Of course, Chef Nurse Joy knew that Roy was Joy Lando's apprentice, and without saying a word, she gave Roy the large pot for making soup.
She'd been wanting a new, bigger pot for a while, and now she finally had a "reasonable" reason.
