"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Turo looked puzzled by Mingyou's strange expression. Then he finally got a clear look at the White Dragon, and surprise flashed across his face.
"Is that... Reshiram, the legendary white hero of the Unova Region? So it wasn't just a legend. It really exists!"
As Turo spoke, his surprise gradually faded. He had clearly seen his share of extraordinary things. Steady by nature, he wasn't about to be struck speechless just because Reshiram had appeared.
Mingyou finally snapped out of it. He couldn't worry about anything else right now. Someone had finally shown up, and he had to put his hopes in him.
He pointed at the injured Pokémon frozen behind him and shouted, "Professor Turo, do you have any medicine? These Pokémon are badly hurt. They need treatment right away!"
"What?"
Turo froze for a moment, too concerned to question why Mingyou had called him "Professor." He looked at the Pokémon encased in ice and said gravely, "Bring them with me."
"Okay!"
Mingyou nodded and had Reshiram help carry the blocks of ice. He followed Turo to a building in the distance with a signal tower mounted on it.
"Take them inside. This is Observation Station No. 3 in Area Zero. There are treatment pods here. I'll call the Medical Team down from the upper level at once."
"Got it!"
There was no time to worry about anything else. This was their only option.
They brought Keldeo and the others inside and placed them in the treatment pods, filling every one. The pods couldn't heal their injuries, but they could restore their strength and keep them alive.
Mingyou finally breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Turo. Turo waved it off, saying that the researchers in Area Zero always treated injured Pokémon they came across.
But
