Mr. Foster's research topic is about the ancient history of Pokémon and just fossils in general.
Moreover, he proposed a theory of the origin of ocean Pokémon. He believed that the origin of all life was in the sea.
"Your big discovery, is it a new Water Pokémon?" After hearing Mr. Foster introduce her research, Misty suddenly rushed towards him with her starry eyes!
As an absolute fanatic of Water type Pokémon, how could she not be excited when hearing such a theory about this?
Misty, who just got pulled back by Ash and Brock and she quickly apologized to Foster for her sudden outburst!
As the group chatted like this, they came to an iron gate with big red crosses painted on it.
"Then, now I will lead you to the world two million years ago!"
Foster pressed the fingerprint recognition, the iron door opened, and a cool breeze blew out.
Rare trees, rare grass, and then suddenly an Aerodactyl jumped out. Ash likes Aerodactyl very much, it is cool, very strong, and has a Mega Evolution, so he must capture one if he ever has the chance to do so!
However, the one in front of him is not the real Aerodactyl at all!
"This is Aerodactyl based on the latest data on ancient Pokémon and the most advanced animatronic technology we currently have in the Research Lab over here!" Foster introduced.
It sounds quite high-end.
But it wasn't alive. So, Ash still lacked interest in it, but Molly was extremely happy about seeing this kind of things.
This is like an amusement park for her!
And it's still an amusement park that hasn't opened to others yet!
"This is the Ancient Pokémon Park, an entertainment and academic space that recreates the living environment of Ancient Pokémon's. Since it takes a lot of time to adjust the system over here, it is not open to the public just yet!"
Molly hugged Ash's thigh, "That's awesome, Brother Ash, it's so much fun here! Wow, there's also a Volcano over there!"
As she was talking, the virtual Volcano erupted in front of everyone.
Foster proudly introduced, "I said I wanted to recreate that environment. The ancient continent was affected by frequent Volcanic activities, and the lands at that time sometimes sank or emerged from the sea!"
"Such changes have had a huge impact on the evolution of life!" Ash continued.
After saying that, he felt Professor Oak pat his shoulder and nodded in approval.
Molly ran to Mr. Foster again, "Uncle Foster, besides Aerodactyl, are there any other Ancient Pokémon here?"
Just one Aerodactyl is not enough for it to be considered an actual park for people to visit!
Looking at her excited little face and her bright eyes, he knelt down and said, "Then lets take you to see the most important and biggest discovery here!"
With that said, Foster led everyone to a small pond. Strangely, the rocks here were all glowing!
"This is Glowing Moss!" Professor Oak revealed the mystery of the stone's glow at a glance.
Foster went on to introduce, "There were many such things on the seaside in ancient times. We know this from fossil analysis."
Molly shook Mr. Foster's trouser leg, "Uncle, is this your big discovery?" She looked a little down.
The glowing stone is indeed very important for research, but it cannot satisfy Molly's strong curiosity and her child like brain.
Foster looked at her and smiled and said, "Molly, don't be impatient! As long as you stand here, the big discovery will appear by itself!"
"Is that so?" Molly turned around and ran to Ash's side, staring blankly at the water.
"Nani?"
Ash's Aura seemed to have discovered something inside the pool just now, and then he showed a look of surprise. It turned out to be those little guys!
Soon, everyone noticed that something seemed to be approaching the water.
"Everyone, set your sight on the complete replica of the coast two million years ago." Just as the water droplets were about to emerge from the water, Foster seemed to be acting as a narration and announcer for their upcoming appearance, "You have to look carefully."
As soon as Foster finished speaking, the figure under the water finally appeared!
The Pokémon looks like a large snail, carrying a huge spiral-patterned shell with blue tentacles extending from it.
Omanyte's big eyes look cute, but the evolved Omastar is different. The eyes look a little scary, and the mouth becomes a cross shape, making it look particularly ferocious.
"It's Omanyte and Omastar!" Professor Oak said their names.
"It looks like it's real!" Of course Misty also saw them before and was shocked to see them here.
"Brother Ash, Omanyte is so cute!" Molly had already ran over happily to the front. At this time, the Omanytes had already boarded the beach. Professor Oak suddenly felt something was wrong!
"Ash, stop Molly quickly, these Omanyte are..." Professor Oak suddenly screamed, and the little girl hurriedly stepped forward. If she was attacked, it would be a big deal!
But it was too late, Molly had already squatted down in front of an Omanyte, and her soft little fingers went to touch the Omanyte's soft blue tentacles.
With the wet touch, Molly suddenly understood that this was actually alive!
"Ah, Bug Brother, this Omanyte is really alive!" Molly rushed back to Ash like a frightened little rabbit, hugged Ash's legs and hid behind him.
"Don't be afraid Molly, didn't you say that this Omanyte cute?" Ash comforted her with a smile.
Looking at the Omanyte in front of him, Professor Oak slowly walked forward and stretched out his hand to touch their tentacles, feeling excited in his heart about all this.
"I never thought that I could do this. I didn't expect to encounter real Ancient Pokémon here."
"The reason why I started studying Pokémon was because I saw the fossil of an Omanyte. The shells I saw in the museum had very beautiful spiral patterns. Seeing them was like meeting an old friend who I had not seen in such a long time!"
"Foster, where did you find these Omanyte and Omastar?" Professor Oak also realized the seriousness of the matter. These real living fossils, in the eyes of some greedy people, are like walking gold.
However, even Foster didn't know it. They were already here before he noticed it.
Ash's body flashed with light. He looked at Foster with a serious face and said, "Mr. Foster, there is a whole world that has survived for two million years underground here. I suggest that this artificial pond be closed immediately and measures be taken to close and stop all this immediately before someone notices this and causes chaos!"
"Ash?"
Misty has never heard Ash say something so solemnly, and she has never seen Ash with such a serious expression!
While Ash was talking, no one noticed that there were several more Omanytes around them. This time, Foster also believed what Ash said.
Under this artificial lake and the water source deep in the back mountain, there lives the Omanyte clan, which has been multiplying for two million years!
"Ash, you have really grown up!" Professor Oak looked at Ash with eyes full of pride.
Let these researchers handle this!
Since she wants to protect these Omanyte, Misty, as a Water type Pokémon Trainer, has no intention of subduing an Omanyte.
But she doesn't care, keeping it secret is the best way to protect these Omanytes who have no real connection with the outside world.
