Ash quickly summoned over a Officer Jenny as he was a Pokémon Investigator, handed the bruised and symmetrical Butler to her, and set out on the road to the Farnia Forest with Diane.
"Ash, you seem to understand a lot of things that even I can't understand, and I worked with Butler for a long time." Diane, who was the one driving, suddenly asked him.
"Are you talking about his experiments, or his identity as a former scientist of Team Magma, or the fact that he was kicked out after his experiment failed and caused damge to his organization?"
Ahs smiled slightly, "I could have still found out if I really wanted to, but I really didn't expect that he would reveal all that himself before he was even able to harness the power of the Millennium Comet to conduct his dangerous experiments."
Regarding the other information about Butler, Ash handed it the things he did have over to the Rocket Trio for a full investigation.
Although the information was not perfect, it was enough for Ash to deduce everything that he didn't hear from Butler himself.
"In order for Jirachi to awaken its power, he needs a trusty partner, a person with a pure and young heart. Butler was obviously unfit for that so he did all of the traveling magic shows just to wait for the partner to appear!" Now that Ash has learned about Butler's past, Diane started to introduce Jirachi's part.
"So he waited for someone like Max to appear!" May looked at Jirachi in her little brothers arms. Jirachi's injuries had already recovered to a certain extent, but it seemed like he was having a nightmare.
"Excuse me, but where is this Farnia Forest?" Seeing Jirachi's uncomfortable look, Max asked with distress.
"It will take us about four days to drive there with our current speed!" Diane was already driving very fast, but it only took Absol one day to get there, which shows how high his running speed and endurance was.
"Sending Jirachi back to Farnia is what I should do as his partner!" Max made up his mind to protect Jirachi no matter the cost!
Seeing how determined he was, Ash, who was sitting next to May, showed mercy and gave him a pat on the head.
"Big Bro!" Seeing Ash's eyes, Max suddenly became happy, as it seemed that Ash finally recognized him.
However, Ash would have never thought that Butler, who was taken away by Officer Jenny, secretly pressed a certain mechanism hidden in his sleeve at the last moment.
The sky was getting dark again. This is the third night after the appearance of the Millennium Comet.
Max hugged Jirachi who had regained his energy and fell asleep. Brock was responsible for warming the fire and cooking some hot soup for everyone to make supper.
May came to Ash's side, hugged him while no one was paying attention, and asked, "Ash, did you catch that Absol?"
Their love conversation was interrupted by Absol before, but now May tried picked up the topic again.
"I couldn't catch it as we were interrupted. Now that guy should still be following us all the way to Farnia. I can feel his Auta. Let's wait until we get to Farnia before I catch it!"
Ash has already had a small talk with this Absol and they were now alright. He already had a very good impression of this Absol and definitely wanted to catch him next.
"Anyway, May. What were you about to say that last time?" Ash asked knowingly.
May blushed but got ready, "Well, I was about to say that I lo-" Before she could say anything, she was interrupted by another woman.
"Ash!" Diane walked out of her RV, holding a flyer for the magic show in her hand. She must be missing Butler a bit, "I want to thank you for stopping Butler from getting deeper into that trap he had set up for himself."
"As long as you don't blame me for sending him to jail, I'm happy to help." Ash said with a smile. Butlers crime was not very serious yet, but he was a dangerous person. Officer Jenny and her others associates will definitely keep a close eye on him to make sure that he doesn't try anything nasty.
Diane came to Ash and May side, "Butler and I were childhood sweethearts. When he was young, he loved to invent new things. He was a very gentle person back than…"
Diane's face was full of sweetness and nostalgia when she said this.
Speaking of childhood sweethearts, there was a also childhood memory in Ash's memory. It was a very cute one. The only memory he has is that he met a cute little girl at a summer camp when he was about 7 years old.
Soon, Diane looked at Ash again, "Ash, thank you! And in four days, Jirachi will enter his thousand-year sleep again. By then, his ambition will naturally end, and he will definitely change back to his original state. Butler and me can be reunited then, or I hope we do."
Hearing this, Ash shook his head and smiled bitterly, thinking that Diane was still too naive to think like that.
Once such ambition arises, it would be very difficult to not continue on that path.
Now Butler was already standing on the edge of his morality. There are too many confusing things in this world. If he really wants to have a source of powerful energy, there are too many ways.
However, Ash said, "If you meet him again, what would you like to do with him?"
Diane didn't expect Ash to ask such a question. She couldn't help but blush. She obviously thought of something inappropriate for children, but she said, "Of course I want him to make it up to me. He hurt me!"
Brock on the side dropped his heavy spoon on the ground.
'Why me!!??? Ash already has 3 girlfriends!! And I don't even have one!!! What did I do to deserve this punishment??!!!' Brock was having his second mental crisis of the Hoenn journey.
The first time was a few hours ago when Ash told him that he was in a relationship with Misty, his long time friend; Maya, the beautiful girl from the Whirl Islands; and May, their new companion.
Brock was the only one who knew that Ash was in a relationship with 3 women at the same time; since his father also had 3 wives.
As polygamy was actually very common around the world.
The further they went in the direction of Farnia, the terrain became more and more dangerous, with more and more mountains and cliffs along every way. Fortunately, with the help of Ash's Tyranitar, everything went smoothly on the road.
It wasn't until the fifth day that the Millennium Comet appeared that Ash and his party were finally approaching Farnia.
They camped in front of the valley outside the forest.
Going further, they would see an endless forest with numerous stone pillars, rugged terrain, and lush trees.
It was no longer possible to drive in, so everyone had to go inside on foot.
So they need to recharge their energy this night.
"This feels so good…" May sat on Ash's lap and murmured softly.
Max, who was playing with Jirachi, suddenly seemed to realize something when he saw May sitting on Ash's lap.
"Huh!! May, are you really dating Big Bro?? Yesss, Ash is really going to be my Big Bro!!" Max said with excitement.
"Shut up. It's not so serious. What you should be doing now is spending time with Jirachi." Ash said in his usual calm manner.
"Ohh, but why? I don't want Jirachi to go away from me!" With that said, he sat next to the river all alone, with Jirachi quickly going next to him.
"Max..." May was about to catch up after standing up, but was stopped by Ash.
Ash stood up with his Pikachu and Ralts on his shoulders, and saw that Max holding Jirachi in his arms, "Can't you bear it?"
Ralts came down to Ash's arms, reached over and gently knocked Jirachi on the head. Although this little guy had been alive for thousands of years, he was still far inferior to Ralts when it came to these things.
The little guy suddenly became happy and played Teleports with Ralts, flashing around at the area.
But Max's mood was still very low, "I will never see Jirachi again…"
Because Jirachi needs to sleep for a thousand years, separation means eternal farewell for Max.
"You know, for Jirachi, a thousand years may be just a little moment." Ash said slowly.
"For Max and Jirachi, although these days were short, they are more than just a moment!"
The separation was destined, but this friendship and memories will always be remembered in Max's mind and appear in Jirachi's dreams.
"Thank you, Big Bro, you are the best!" Max finally felt relieved.
"I give you my permission to date May. Don't worry, I will put in a good word for you to Mom and Dad." Max said cheekily.
So Ash hit him in the head again with an annoyed expression, "If you know, go to bed early. You have to hike into the forest tomorrow. And I also didn't need your good word or your permission. Your dad probably already knew this before you even joined."
"Yeah yeah!"
On the sixth day after the Millennium Comet first appeared, Ash and his group drove through the outer Valley and finally arrived at their destination!
The Farnia Forest!
The landform here was very unique. It is difficult to imagine what kind of natural creation can form such a unique style. This should be a forbidden area for humans and a paradise for Pokémon.
The group of people slowly walked in. The Pokémon here were not really that afraid of people. Even when they saw Ash and others walking by, they just didn't care enough and went on with their day.
An Altaria flew among the treetops with a bunch of Swablu's behind it, and a huge Tropius stretched its neck to eat the fruits of the trees higher up.
There were also a bunch of Nuzleaf's, Breloom's, Vibrava's just chilling around the area.
"I like it here!" This was somehoe Jirachi's highest compliment for beautiful things.
"I like it here too!" Ash said, throwing out two of his Ultra Balls, "Come out, Latias! Latios!"
That's right, in addition to his Suicune and Tyranitar, Ash had also brought his two Eon Pokémon's from the Lab this time.
As soon as Latias came out, she happily rubbed Ash's face. Ralts jumped on Latias's back. They became good friends just after seeing each other for the first time.
After all, the two of them all loved Ash very much.
"Latios, take them to play, don't go too far from me!"
Knowing that he would definitely come to such a beautiful place, Ash exchanged for them, not only do they like this but their combat power has also improved a lot since few months ago.
"It's a Latias and a Latios!" Max exclaimed loudly, looking at the Eon siblings with bright stars in their eyes, "Big Bro, you not only have a Suicune, but you also have a Latios and a Latias! It's so cool, I can actually see them both at the same time!"
Ash looked at him and glanced at Latios, "Go ahead and have fun for now."
Their hiking speed was much slower than their walking speed. Although they hot ready and walked all day long, they didn't reach their final destination, so they had to camp down again. This was also the last night that Max and Jirachi could be together, so Max refused to go sleep.
As a child, it wasn't really fine to stay up all night as this could be very detrimental to him.
And sure enough the next day when they continued on the road after breakfast, Max looked very tired and was needed to be hit by Ash several times to stay awake.
"Big Bro, please stop hitting me, I don't even feel asleep but you still hit meee!" Max covered his head and begged for mercy, but Ash did finally stop.
Max looked up and saw that same Absol, who had disappeared for several days now, appeared in front of them again. He glanced at Ash, who had motioned for the group to follow it.
But even with Absol leading the way, the group walked for a whole day, and it wasn't until the sky was filled with the orange sunset that they arrived at their final destination.
This is the deepest part of the Farnia Forest, and it is also the place where Butler discovered the crystallization form of Jirachi.
"Look at that!" Max suddenly exclaimed. The huge Tropius landed at the entrance of the cave. The Pokémon in the forest gathered around him, seeming to welcome Jirachi's return here.
But Ash's attention was focused on a Flygon that flew down!
This is the evolved form of Vibrava, with the dual Ground-type and Dragon-type. Not only does it look very cool, but it also has the strength to back up its powerful types. This makes Flygon a very reliable Pokémon.
Flygins have one natural immunity to a type, which is the Electric-type because of its own Ground-type.
The other is not because of its type, but because of it's ability. Flygon as a very good ability, known as Levitate. This makes it almost have a full immunity to Ground-type attacks.
Not only that, because of its defensive Dragon and Ground-types, Flygon also had many resistances. But such a weakness cannot hide its resistance, which is so powerful that even Steel-type Pokémon would envy it!
In terms of weaknesses, its weakness is the common weakness of all Dragon-type Pokémon's, which is their own Dragon-type, as well as the Fairy-type and Ice-type. The Ice-type has a particularly significant effect on it because of his dual types.
Not only that, because of its defensive Dragon-type and Ground-types, Flygon also had many resistances. But such a weakness cannot hide its full resistance, which was so strong that even most Steel-type Pokémon's were not at good at this.
Additionally, Flygons were also known to be amongst the Pokémon's that are known to be very good at flying with humans. They could flap their wings so violently that they could create a sandstorm to hide their body and attack from most directions.
This Flygon was the closest one to the main cave entrance. In terms of status, it was obviously one of the strongest Pokémon's in this closef off forest.
Ash decided to not take any any actions and followed Diane into the Cave where they originally discovered Jirachi.
Diane turned on their hanging lamp, and the Ralts on Ash's shoulder also used her Flash skill.
There was a large crack above the deepest part of the cave. Looking up from the crack, they could see the Millennium Comet in the starry sky. This is where Jirachi was lived for a thousand years.
It was supposed to wake up here, and then receive the power of the Millennium Comet here. After waking up for 7 days, it would fall asleep again, but was brought out from here by Butler before she could wake up.
Jirachi was supposed to need a pure hearted young human to wake up, however, because of all the kind Pokémon's in the forest like Flygon and Absol, he wouldn't need a human. But since he was taken away, he needed a humans helps to wake up.
Absol brought everyone here, stood under the crack, glanced over at Ash, and then returned to the darkness.
Jirachi looked up at the Millennium Comet in the crack, "The stars were calling out to me!"
It flew up from Max's head and floated into the air.
Seeing Max's reluctance, Ash gently put his hand on his shoulder, "That is Jirachi's mission. The thing he was born to do."
"Ash, you really are not simple. Butler searched through countless things to understand this, and you detected it at with just a glance." Hearing Ash's words, Diane immediately looked at Ash with fascination and admiration.
"The Eye of Truth is about to open!" Ash looked at Jirachi floating in the air, facing the comet in the sky.
"That's right, when Jirachi summons energy from the Millennium Comet, it will open the Eye of Truth. During his thousand years of sleeping, Jirachi will inject the energy absorbed from the comet into the earth bit by bit. It's because of this that Farnia is able to have such rich green land!"
This was the real use of the Eye of Truth, but Butler wants to intercept this part of the energy and use it to do something as dangerous as creating an artificial Groudon.
Ask realized that once Jirachi releases the energy that he obtained from the comet into something else, the place where Fatnia is will lose all the nourishment of the comet's energy, the greenery here will wither greatly in an instant because of the sudden shift, and the place where Pokémon rely on for survival will be reduced.
If the energy was going go away, it had to be in a steady stream. But if Butlers plan had worked, the sudden shift would make sure no living thing escaped here.
The power of a Mythical Pokémon like Jirachi cannot be used casually like that. If it was, the planet will die off sooner or later.
The Eye of Truth in Jirachi's abdomen had finally been opened, but a green halo was suddenly released from Ash's neck.
"Ash, what's that on your neck?" May was the first to notice this situation.
This was the GS Ball Ash had with him, and there was a young Celebi sleeping inside of it. When they were in Johto Region, Ash was finally able to open the ball after a lot of trouble, but since then, his Celebi had been sleeping inside, and it was rare to wake up!
This time, the GS Ball opened, and a small pixe flew out of it.
"What Pokémon is that? It looks a bit like Jirachi!" Max didn't know much of anything about Pokémon's like Celebi.
May quickly took out her Pokémon Pokédex but it didn't work so Ash had to explain it to her from what he knew, "Celebi, a Pokémon that is able to travel through time and explore much of the past and future wonders. It is said that in the forest where Celebi appears, the vegetation will grow very lushly. "
The expressions of the two siblings were very synchronized in how they were stunned.
Celebi circled around Ash's head a few times and flew to Jirachi's side.
Jirachi opened his eyes and saw Ash's Celebi, "Celebi, I remember you!"
Subsequently, the Eye of Truth summoned the power of the Millennium Comet and injected it into the bodies of Jirachi and little Celebi at the same time!
