At Calyrex's words, Mingyou clenched his fists, his face darkening. Sure enough, this guy was behind it!
He had only been away for ten days, and there was already a statue. If he left for a month, he dreaded to imagine what Calyrex would do next!
Seeing Mingyou's expression, Calyrex shook his head gently, looking a little disappointed. "Why the long face? Give me a smile. Smile, smile~ I took such good care of this place for you. You ought to thank me."
"Thank you, my big turnip!"
Mingyou grabbed Calyrex by the head and hoisted him up with one hand. "What the hell are you doing?!"
"As you can see, promoting economic development. Kitakami's future rests on my shoulders. Look at all these people placing their hopes in me, the light in their eyes..."
Before Calyrex could finish, Mingyou clamped both hands around his head and shouted, "All I know is that lasers are about to shoot out of my eyes!"
"Valia?!"
Beside them, Iron Valiant was shocked. Lasers from his eyes? Could he actually be... a cyborg?!
"..."
Seizing the moment when Mingyou was at a loss for words, Calyrex easily slipped free and floated away. Just then, a Swablu flapped its cloudlike wings and landed smoothly on his head, looking like a cotton cap.
And that was not all. Calyrex held out a hand, and a Chatot folded its wings to land squarely on it. At the same time, a Jigglypuff and a Kricketot came running out of the crowd.
"Huh? Where did these Pokémon come from?"
Mingyou was puzzled and curious. Then Calyrex spoke slowly, finally revealing his purpose. "I'm training them to compose music for my studio's games, of course!"
"Huh?"
Hearing that, Mingyou quickly checked the Pokémon's information, then froze...
