Pokemon: This Gary is Very Different

---

Time quickly came to the next day.

Because the Dewford Gym was still closed, Gary and Rosa continued to come to the vicinity of Granite Cave and continued to relax and have fun on the beach.

However, unlike yesterday when only Gary and Rosa played on the beach, today they released all their Pokémon, and the two of them enjoyed a wonderful vacation with them.

At this time, Gary closed his eyes and lay on the relatively large beach chair that had been prepared before, resting his eyes and enjoying the warm sunbath.

Of course, Rosa, as Gary's girlfriend, was also with Gary at this time.

She rested her head on Gary's broad chest, and nestled in his arms, enjoying a wonderful sunbath together.

Gary's right hand was also placed on Rosa's smooth and white skin, feeling the warm and jade-like sensation.

As for Gary and Rosa's Pokémon, they were very considerate and did not disturb Gary and Rosa who were resting. Instead, they went to the beach and did their favorite activities.

For example, Blastoise liked to lie in the sea water, Arcanine, Umbreon, and Elekid lay in the shade of the trees, and Pupitar and Shiny Metagross liked to bury themselves in the sand and enjoy the sand bath.

In the end, these Pokémon also surrounded Gary and Rosa's beach chairs and lay on the beach, enjoying the warm sunshine with their trainers.

So, on this beach, there was a beautiful scene of people and Pokémon living in harmony.

Just when Gary, Rosa, and a group of Pokémon were comfortably enjoying the sun, a sudden chuckle interrupted this beauty.

"I didn't expect there were still people here!"

On this quiet beach, this chuckle was so clear that it also woke up Gary, Rosa, and a group of Pokémon who were taking a nap.

Gary, Rosa, and a group of Pokémon opened their eyes and looked towards the place where the sound came from. Soon a figure appeared in their sight.

The man was wearing a light gray mountaineering suit and had striking light blue short hair. In addition, he had an extraordinary image of a young man.

Although he was not wearing his representative suit, Gary recognized the identity of the person at a glance.

He was Steven, the former champion of the Hoenn region.

That was the Steven who, because he liked stones, handed over the title of Hoenn champion to his friend Wallace in order to search for stones all over the world.

"Mr. Steven, I didn't expect to meet you here."

After opening his eyes and seeing the person, Gary was also slightly surprised.

"Steven?"

On the contrary, Rosa didn't react for a while and was a little confused.

"It's Mr. Steven, the former champion of the Hoenn region!"

But then, with Gary's reminder, Rosa understood instantly.

"It's Mr. Steven!"

Although Rosa is a trainer from the Unova region, she still has some understanding of Steven, who is famous all over the world.

Among all the male champion trainers in the world today, those who are more handsome than him are not as rich as him, and those who are richer than him are not as handsome as him.

He is also unique among all the male champion trainers.

"It's our first meeting. Just call me Steven."

After seeing Gary and Rosa recognize him, Steven did not put on the airs of a champion, but greeted them very friendly.

His performance also perfectly fits the image of a gentleman in Gary's mind.

"Hello, Mr. Steven, I am Gary Oak from the Kanto region."

Faced with Steven's friendly greeting, Gary also said his name very formally.

"My name is Rosa, from the Unova region."

Rosa followed closely and briefly introduced herself.

"Gary Oak?"

When Steven heard Gary introduce himself as Gary Oak, a gleam of light appeared in his eyes.

Gary noticed the gleam in Steven's eyes and knew what Steven was thinking at the moment, so he nodded calmly.

"Yes, Professor Oak is my grandfather."

"As expected."

After listening to Gary's confirmation, Steven also nodded.

With the relationship of Professor Oak, Steven and Gary quickly drew closer to each other, and they also had a discussion about Pokémon.

"Are those all your Pokémon?"

After saying that, Steven looked at Gary's Pokémon, especially the platinum-colored Shiny Metagross that was the same as his.

"Yes, they are all our good partners."

Gary and Rosa also nodded and answered.

"You have a really good group of partners!"

With Steven's eyes, of course, he also saw that Gary and Rosa's Pokémon were extraordinary.

"Thank you."

Faced with the compliments from the champion trainer, Gary and Rosa were also very happy.

"By the way, Mr. Steven, why did you appear in Dewford Town?"

While chatting, Rosa asked Steven her own question.

"Of course I came to dig stones."

Faced with Rosa's inquiry, Steven also directly stated his purpose.

"It seems that Mr. Steven really loves strange stones as the outside world has said!"

After hearing Steven's undisguised words, Gary also laughed.

"I always think they are treasures in the world."

Faced with Gary's ridicule, Steven didn't care, but smiled gently: "So, my biggest dream is to collect all kinds of precious stones."

Just as Steven said now, he is now haunting the major ruins in the world, looking for those precious stones.

"Mr. Steven's hobbies are really... special!"

After learning that Steven likes stones, Rosa finally found the word "special" to describe him.

He was used to Rosa's performance, so he didn't care, but continued to look at Gary and their Pokémon.

After carefully scanning Gary and Rosa's Pokémon, he soon noticed a wristband on Blastoise's arm.

After discovering the round stone on the wristband, Steven immediately looked at Gary's wrist. There was also a wristband inlaid with a round stone on Gary's wrist.

"That stone is... the Pokémon Mega Stone and Key Stone."

Obviously, Steven still knows the Pokémon Mega Stone and Key Stone.

"Mr. Steven, do you know these two stones of Gary?"

Rosa had also discovered the two stones on Gary and Blastoise a long time ago, but she was very considerate and did not ask about it.

But now that she saw that Steven also knew them, she took this opportunity to ask.

"Yes, they should be Blastoise's Mega Stone and Key Stone."

Steven nodded and answered Rosa's question.

"Mr. Steven is really worthy of it. He is really sensitive to stones!"

After hearing Steven directly mention the Pokémon Mega Stone and Key Stone, Gary also showed an expression of admiration.

As expected, Steven is a stone lover. He even knows the Mega Stone that is only a little popular in the Kalos region.

"I just know a little bit."

Steven shook his head at first, and then continued to explain: "I just learned a little information from some online channels, and I don't know more specific information."

When Steven was a little "unsure," Rosa looked at the "omnipotent" Gary, seeking answers.

In response to Rosa's questions and Steven's desire to learn more about him, Gary also told Rosa and Steven what he knew about the Mega Stone.

Especially after Steven knew that Metagross could also undergo Mega Evolution, his eyes lit up slightly, and he also made a decision.

"It seems that I have to take time to find Mega Stones and Key Stones later."
