Chapter 271: The Key "Exactly, those are the ones. I didn't expect you to have knowledge about ancient Fossil Pokémon," Charles said with excitement.
Yuga smiled and replied, "I have some basic knowledge, but nothing extensive."
With Charles's guidance, they arrived at the heart of the ruins, where a stone door adorned with intricate patterns stood.
Charles explained, "Legend has it that behind this stone door lies a stone chamber containing secrets of ancient Pokémon. However, no one has ever ventured inside."
Yuga asked curiously, "Why hasn't anyone entered?"
Charles smiled and pointed at four round holes located in the center of the stone door, saying, "Because you need a key to enter."
Saying this, Charles pulled out a worn-out piece of paper from his pocket and unfolded it, revealing four different-colored beads. He pointed to them and said to Yuga, "These are the keys to unlocking the ruins! I've been
Rubbing his bewildered eyes, Charles asked Yuga, "What's happening?"
Yuga didn't say a word but simply pointed towards the stone staircase below. The look of confusion in Charles's eyes disappeared instantly.
Surprised, he asked, "What is this?"
Yuga shook his head, indicating that he didn't know, but he shared what he had just witnessed with Charles.
"This is incredible!" Charles exclaimed. "Let's go down and explore."
Yuga nodded and followed Charles down the stone staircase.
Descending the stairs, Yuga and Charles found themselves in an underground cavern, and the cavern contained a large underground pool.
"It's an underground pool!" Charles exclaimed.
Yuga asked in confusion, "But why did the ancient people go to such lengths to conceal an underground pool?"
Charles shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Suddenly, a column of water shot out from the pool, heading straight for Charles, who stood there in a daze, as if paralyzed.
Yuga quickly leaped forward, pushing Charles aside just in time to narrowly avoid the water projectile's attack.
"It's a Relicant!" Charles, lying on the ground, exclaimed with excitement.
Yuga thought to himself, "Is this guy really that excited about a Relicant? Is it worth risking his life for?"
The Relicant in the water seemed poised to launch another attack at Yuga and Charles. However, Yuga wasn't one to stand idly by and take hits. He released his Florges, addressing it, "Use Vine Whip to pull that Pokémon out of the water."
"Florges!" Florges nodded, and two vine whips swiftly plunged into the water. With a vigorous tug, the Relicant was yanked out of the water onto the shore.
Once on land, the Relicant was helpless and could only flop around desperately. Eventually, it succumbed under the effects of Florges's Magical Leaf and closed its eyes.
In reality, this Relicant was quite formidable, but it had chosen the wrong opponents.
Yuga tossed a Poké Ball, capturing the incapacitated Relicant, and then handed it to Charles, saying, "Since you're so fond of Relicant, it's yours."
