The video continued.
System Prompt: Answer incorrect!
Correct answer: D.
Used to synthesize a rare type of potion
[VIP Chat Group]
Shuoton: What?!
D?!
Not B?!
Isn’t the Prism Scale used to evolve Feebas into Milotic?!
Caylee: …Looks like my brother got it wrong again.
Brock: But Professor Oak and Mr.
Wallace clearly just said—
Professor Oak: Ahem… About that… I did say the Prism Scale is a key item for evolving Feebas into Milotic in our world.
That is a widely accepted fact.
However, in the parallel world… things may differ.
Wallace: Professor Oak is right.
It seems we cannot fully apply our world’s common knowledge to the parallel world.
Cynthia: That’s an important reminder.
The livestream is showing another parallel world.
Its rules, item functions, and even Pokémon ecology may differ from ours.
Lance: True.
The existence of Shuo Dong alone already proves there are significant differences.
Lorelei: So does that mean… we can’t rely on our knowledge at all for these questions?
Professor Sycamore: Not necessarily.
The questions should be based on what was shown in the video.
If we observe carefully, we should still be able to find the answers.
Ash: But… didn’t they say earlier that Rainbow’s ace Pokémon includes Milotic?
Gary: When Shuo Dong gave her the Prism Scale, he only said, “You’ll use this someday.” He never said it was specifically for evolving Feebas.
So its purpose might not be that straightforward.
Ash: Then where exactly are we supposed to see that it’s used for making rare potions?
Gary: …How am I supposed to know?
Ash: Haha!
So even you don’t know!
Gary: Shut up.
Hoenn Region, Littleroot Town
Professor Birch sat in his lab, surrounded by stacks of documents.
“Prism Scale used as a potion ingredient…” he muttered while flipping through old records.
“I think I’ve seen this in an ancient document somewhere…”
“Professor, which document?”
“It was… something excavated from a ruin a long time ago.”
He stood up and walked to the bookshelf, dust drifting into the air.
“Cough… where is it…”
“Professor, should I get you a mask?”
“No need, I found it!”
He pulled out a yellowed manuscript from the deepest part of the shelf and opened it.
Inside was a drawing of a beaker, and among the listed materials was a sketch unmistakably resembling the Prism Scale.
“I knew it…” Professor Birch’s eyes lit up.
“In ancient times, the Prism Scale really was used in potion synthesis!
That technique was later lost!”

Professor Birch: Everyone, I found it!
In our world’s ancient times, the Prism Scale was indeed used as a potion ingredient!
The technique was later lost!
Professor Oak: Oh?
That’s unexpected.
Professor Birch: Yes!
I have an ancient manuscript recovered from a ruin.
It records a formula using the Prism Scale to synthesize a certain potion.
However… the exact potion, its effects, and full recipe are not written.
Cynthia: So this means parallel worlds may preserve technologies that our world has lost… because history diverged?
Professor Oak: That is possible.
Different historical paths could mean some knowledge survived there that was lost here.
Professor Sycamore: This is huge!
If we can uncover those potion formulas, we might be able to restore lost technologies in our world!
Clemont: This is the power of science!
Comparing two worlds could unlock entirely new knowledge!
Bonnie: Brother, you’re getting excited again.
Clemont: This is for science!
Alola Region, Melemele Island
Professor Kukui stood in the Pokémon School courtyard, watching the screen.
“Parallel world differences…” he murmured.
“Then what about Z-Moves?
His gaze sharpened.
“Would Rainbow ever come to Alola?”
Mallow walked over.
“Professor Kukui, what are you thinking about?”
“I’m thinking… if Rainbow came to Alola, how would she battle us?” Kukui smiled.
“And the versions of us in that world… might be different too.”
Kalos Region, Lumiose City
Professor Sycamore stood in his lab, the livestream projected across an entire wall.
“Assistant, take notes.”
“Yes, Professor.”
“This parallel world… are the differences minor?
Or is the entire structure of the world different?”
The assistant hesitated.
“We would need more data to answer that.”
“I know,” Sycamore nodded.
“That’s why we keep watching.”
Dragon Village
The punishment finally ended.
Aileen collapsed on the ground, gasping for air, her body still twitching slightly.
“It… it’s over?”
Dreepy cautiously nudged her cheek.
“Aileen…” she turned over and stared at the sky, completely drained.
“I will never rush to answer again.”
The elder walked out and handed her a glass of water.
“Drink.”
She gulped it down and exhaled deeply.
“Elder.”
“Yes?”
“Who do you think created this livestream?”
The elder looked up at the sky.
“I don’t know,” she said slowly.
“But whoever it is… is not something we can easily comprehend.”
Aileen sat up and looked at the screen.
“So… what would I be doing in the parallel world?”
The elder smiled faintly.
“Probably still training to become a Dragon Master somewhere.”
Aileen paused, then smiled too.
“That sounds nice.”
