Pallet Town, Professor Oak's Laboratory.

Professor Oak, who was cooking instant noodles over an alcohol burner, suddenly jumped in fright.

along with Mew, Shaymin, and Victini, whose heads poked through Hoopa's ring, curious about Li Wei and Professor Oak's bickering.
"Mew~~"
Why aren't you arguing anymore?
Mew blinked those big blue eyes curiously.
Although Mew couldn't pass through the ring and come straight to Pallet Town,
poking half a head through, just as Hoopa had
