Chapter 444: Mega Evolution’s hidden danger
Looking at the other party placing the bracelet embedded with the Key Stone and the Mega Stone on the table, Terrance spoke, “Now can you answer my questions?”
“Sure,” Albus said with a smile.
“First, why did you seek me out?”
“Well, to be precise, we were looking for your Altaria. Our goal in finding Trainers is based on them having an exceptionally strong Altaria, not the Trainer themselves,” Albus replied.
“There are countless Trainers with an Altaria…”
“You’re right, but only a few of them are truly strong. As for those who fully meet our criteria, there isn’t a single one yet,” Albus explained. “Before you, two Trainers passed the strength test, but neither of them could complete Mega Evolution.”
“One of them had decent strength, but his relationship with his Pokémon could only be described as ordinary. He was completely unable to achieve the bond-dependent Mega Evolution.”
“As for the other, while Altaria was the Pokémon he had raised the longest and was closest to, due to…” Albus picked up the Mega Ring and continued, “There is something unusual about this device outside the Key Stone. During Mega Evolution, it consumes the Trainer’s physical and mental strength. An ordinary Trainer simply can’t withstand the burden Mega Evolution brings. That Trainer completely lost consciousness just as the two stones began to resonate.”
“What a pity.”
