Pokémon Burning Wisdom

He was a well-known talented 12-year-old player who was on the ladder list of Pokemond, a Pokemon battle platform in the real world. After finally reaching the top of the ladder, he suddenly found that he had traveled to a parallel world of Pokemon and became Ash. He awakened the power of the wave, met various powerful trainers and new partners, and wrote his own independent and unique story and chapter.

Pokémon Burning Wisdom
Chapter 1: First on the Ladder
At night, the stars in the sky shine brightly, becoming the only source of light in the boy’s room besides the computer light.
The boy’s name is Xiaozhi, but no one has called him by his full name for a long time.
Xiaozhi’s parents divorced and formed a new family with new children, so Xiaozhi didn’t want to trouble them and returned to his hometown to live with his grandparents. His grandparents passed away when he was 10 years old. After rejecting his parents’ idea of ??taking him away, Xiaozhi began a long and painful life in the old house. Until one day, Xiaozhi accidentally opened a website.
“Pika Pika”
A yellow mouse appeared on Xiaozhi’s computer. Xiaozhi clicked it curiously, and a battle platform called Pokemond appeared in front of Xiaozhi.
Later, Xiaozhi seemed to have an extra concern. He enjoyed the company of Pokémon in front of the computer every day and fought side by side with his partners.
There are no Pokémon animations or Pokémon games in this world, which makes the term Pokémon so little known here. But what is very surprising is that this Pokémon battle online platform called Pokemond has miraculously survived.
Xiaozhi is twelve years old this year. In this country where Pokémon battles are not widely spread, he has made Pokémon players all over the world know him with his extremely high talent and powerful abilities.
The reason is simple. Being in the top ten of the ladder for a long time is the best symbol of his strength.
“Okay, everyone, are you ready? We are going to sprint to the top of the ladder together tonight!”
This is Xiaozhi’s old habit. Before clicking the start matching button, he always likes to look at the six Pokémon in his team and slowly utter a few words to boost morale.
As if…they really exist
This may be the last time that Xiaozhi accompanies his friends to fight on the battlefield.
Soon, he will go to boarding school.
In fact, Xiaozhi doesn’t know why he likes Pokémon. There is obviously no friend around him who wants to play with him, and even netizens are very rare. After all, the Pokémon game is so niche that you can’t even find one among 1,000 people.
“Oh, if only you were by my side…”
As the start matching button was clicked, Xiaozhi immediately got into the state.
The current ranking is third in the ladder, which is Xiaozhi’s best result. The first and second places in Pokemond’s ladder are always occupied by two players every time the ranking is determined.
“Green, are you here…”
Xiaozhi looked at the screen in front of him and swallowed. The opponent he was matched with was named “Green”, who was the perennial runner-up in the ladder list. This was a huge mountain that every player who wanted to reach the top of the ladder had to climb.
But when he clicked to check Green’s winning rate, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but groan inwardly.
213 games, 99.5% win rate
So this guy only lost one game?
The one we lost to should be the one who was ranked first in the ladder…
These two guys are really scary…
Xiaozhi closed his eyes, and the scene in front of him was no longer the single battle platform in front of the computer desk, but a huge arena.
Opposite Xiaozhi is a boy with yellow hair and spiky hair. This person should be Green
A Poké Ball appeared out of thin air in Xiaozhi’s hand and was thrown out by Xiaozhi. Green on the other side also did the same thing.
…
“One hundred thousand volts!”
“High-pressure water cannon!”
After a fierce battle, in the final battle, Green’s Blastoise was defeated by Ash’s Pikachu and finally fell.
“Blustode lost the ability to fight, Pikachu won! So the winner is Xiaozhi, who is third in the ladder!”
A cold electronic female voice came, and Green in front of him put his hands in his pockets and disappeared in an instant. Xiaozhi opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him changed back to the computer desk again.
“I won…”
Looking at the ladder ranking that had risen to second place, Xiaozhi clenched his fists and clicked the start matching button again, vowing to become the most powerful trainer together with his partner.
——————————
On the other side, in a certain dimension
“He’s very strong.” Green said to the red-hatted boy in front of him.
The red-hatted boy rarely kept silent and said, “You can feel it too. His love for Pokémon is no less than ours. When Pikachu called him into our gate, we should have had the answer, right…”
“So what do you mean?” Green asked confusedly.
“…” The red-hatted boy did not answer, but disappeared instantly.
“This guy…” Green seemed to already know the answer from the red-hatted boy, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
“Here it comes!”
Xiaozhi finally found his opponent at this time, the first on the ladder list “Rad”
What surprised Xiaozhi even more was Red’s winning rate!
Sessions: 1
Win rate: 100%
He only played in one match! This guy must be even more powerful than Green!
“My friends, this is going to be a tough battle! Everyone, please work hard!”
Xiaozhi closed his eyes again and entered the battle world that belonged only to him.
As Xiaozhi and Red threw out the Poké Balls at the same time, a fierce battle began again!

“Exploding flames!”
“Use thunder!”
Thick dark clouds descended in an instant, and golden lightning spears struck down one after another. The battle between Xiaozhi and Red had reached a white-hot stage.
As a huge flame erupted from the mouth of Red’s Charizard, the lightning was instantly submerged, and the exploding flames hit Pikachu mercilessly.
“Use super speed!”
Following Xiaozhi’s command, Pikachu disappeared instantly. Pikachu, which was supposed to be swallowed by the red flame, suddenly came in front of Charizard.
“Iron Tail!” After the explosion of flames, Charizard was already exhausted and was knocked to the ground by Pikachu with one blow.
Pikachu was breathing heavily, and Xiaozhi’s heart was in his throat.
Red on the opposite side shook his head, and his originally serious face actually smiled, and at this time the Charizard slowly fell down.
“Charizard lost the ability to fight, Pikachu won, so the winner is Ash who ranked second on the ladder!”
As the cold mechanical female voice sounded, Xiaozhi successfully climbed to the top of the ladder list, but he was not happy.
The reason is simple, it’s dawn
He’s heading off to boarding school soon…
I can no longer fight alongside my friends…
To Xiaozhi’s surprise, Red did not disappear like his previous opponents, but came straight to Xiaozhi.
“You are not fit for that world…” Red began slowly.
“I think so too.” Xiaozhi smiled bitterly.
Maybe Xiaozhi is really not suitable for this world. He was born in a very bad family, neglected by his parents, with the death of his grandparents. He has no friends to accompany him, no encouragement from his peers. All he has is the current number one position in the ladder and the Pokémon that fights alongside him every day, and that’s all.
But what can we do? Life must go on…
Red grabbed Xiaozhi’s arm, which surprised Xiaozhi.
“I can help you…”
“If you can help me too…”
After saying that, Xiaozhi and Red disappeared out of thin air in the entire arena.
Green, who was peeking in another space, also disappeared instantly.
————————————
After an unknown amount of time, Xiaozhi finally woke up, but what surprised him was the scene in front of him.
This is a delivery room, and three identical nurses are busy around him.
Xiaozhi actually turned into a newborn baby!
However, the scene in front of him did not scare Xiaozhi, because he saw a pink egg-shaped elf helping the nurse share the pressure.
Jigglypuff!
Xiaozhi could tell the type of this Pokémon at a glance!
I actually came to the Pokémon world!
Xiaozhi looked around and saw that there was a boy and a girl born in the same delivery room as him.
Time passed quickly, and as Xiaozhi grew up, he was already old enough to go to school.
This world is governed by an organization called the Alliance. Every place has a government, and each government forms an alliance. Four years old is the age for going to school in this Pokémon world. Learning basic arithmetic, history, literacy, etc. is called compulsory education by the Alliance.
Satoshi was born in a small town called Pallet Town. Although it was not wealthy, there were still basic schools taught by Professor Oak and his assistant. Satoshi showed great interest in battling and studying Pokémon since he was a child, and he was very precocious. He often went to Professor Oak’s research institute to help study Pokémon.
Because of his precocious personality and excellent grades, he has become very familiar with Professor Oak.
“Xiaozhi, it’s time to get up. If you don’t get up, you’ll be late for school!”
Xiaozhi’s mother is called Hanako. Even though he came to this world of Pokémon, he grew up in a single-parent family. But fortunately, his mother was very good to him, which gave Xiaozhi a childhood full of maternal love.
As for Xiaozhi’s father, Xiaozhi had never seen him since he was a child, but when Xiaozhi asked Hanako, Hanako just told Xiaozhi that her father died in an accident.
“Mom, I don’t want to go… Just say I have a stomachache and ask for a day off…”
Xiaozhi said to Hanako who came in.
Hanako was furious when she heard this: “Xiaozhi! I don’t remember raising you to be a liar! You are not a good kid at all.”
After that, Hanako came in and lifted up Xiaozhi’s quilt, but Xiaozhi still didn’t want to get up.
Hanako had no idea what to do with her son. She seemed to remember something and immediately ran downstairs and said something to a girl who was sitting at the dinner table in her house.
The girl nodded and immediately went upstairs to Xiaozhi’s room.
“ah!!!!!!!”
Following Xiaozhi’s scream, the two of them chased each other into the living room.
“Auntie, Xiaozhi is calling for you, stop him quickly!”
The girl hid behind Hanako and made a face at Xiaozhi, whose face was full of anger.
“Mom! Didn’t I tell you not to ask Xiao Lan to wake me up?”
Xiaozhi said helplessly while washing his face.
“Who told you not to get up?”
Hanako retorted.
“That’s right!”
Xiao Lan also echoed.
Xiaolan is the child who lives next door to Xiaozhi. As his parents are away from home to earn money for a long time and his elder sister has already embarked on her own journey, Xiaolan, who is alone at home, often comes to his family to eat and drink.
Xiaolan and Xiaozhi were born in the same delivery room and are a typical childhood sweetheart. Xiaolan also likes to tease Xiaozhi, and then asks Hanako to protect her when Xiaozhi is angry.
“Who taught you to put rice into someone’s nostrils when waking them up?”
Xiaozhi came to the dining table helplessly. He had no idea what to do with this girl.
Chapter 3: The Power of Waves (Old Version)
After breakfast, Xiaozhi and Xiaolan went to the place where they both went to school – Pallet School.
“Really, what on earth is going on in your head?”
Xiaozhi said helplessly.
“Who told you not to listen to Aunt Hanako? I was just helping Auntie wake you up.”
Xiaolan made a face again and said.
“You can’t do that, either!”
The two of them bickered all the way, and soon they arrived at the northernmost part of Pallet Town, the Pallet School under Professor Oak’s laboratory.
“Good morning, Xiaozhi, Xiaolan.”
Professor Oak was holding the hand of a hedgehog-headed kid and slowly walking down from the research institute.
“morning.”
“Good morning, Professor Oak, Xiao Mao.”
Professor Oak’s grandson is named Shigeru, whose full name is Shigeru Ohgi. He has lived with Professor Oak for a long time. Shigeru’s parents seem to be doing some research in Sinnoh.
Pallet Town is located in Kanto, which is not on the same continent as Sinnoh, so Xiao Mao rarely sees his parents.
Of course, as a great figure in the academic world of Kanto, Professor Oak dotes on his grandson, so Xiao Mao has some attributes of a young master.
It is worth mentioning that Xiaozhi, Xiaolan and Xiaomao were all born on the same day and even in the same delivery room. The three grew up together. Although Xiaomao is a little cocky, the other two also regard him as a friend.
“Hey, Xiaozhi, Xiaolan, are you ready for today’s exam? I’m not going to take first place again this time, hahaha.”
Xiao Mao said in a very cocky manner.
In fact, Xiaozhi has always been the number one in the school. After all, Xiaozhi comes from that world, and his study ability is naturally impeccable. Although Xiaomao has some talent, how can he be a match for Xiaozhi?
It was just that last time, Xiaozhi missed an exam due to illness, which allowed Xiaomao to get the first place. Xiaomao has been talking about this first place a lot this month, making both of them extremely helpless.
“Okay, Master, please don’t fail me this time…”
Xiao Lan was speechless.
“How is it possible…?”
When Professor Oak saw the three people starting to play around as soon as they met, he smiled and led the three people into the classroom.
Today is indeed the day of the exam, which is also the reason why Xiaozhi doesn’t want to go to school. Xiaozhi thinks that writing these questions is an insult to his IQ. Every time he finishes writing, he still has plenty of time to sit there and be in a daze. It is better not to take the exam.
A few hours later, everyone was sitting in the classroom waiting for the papers to be distributed.
The first section was a Chinese language test, which was the language that Xiaozhi took in that world. After receiving the test paper, Xiaozhi began to answer the questions quickly and soon finished the second to last question.
This question belongs to reading comprehension, but the title of this question made Xiaozhi’s eyes light up.
Known for Bird – The power of Bird is in our heart
This is an article that tells the story of the core of the wave force and the wave messenger Aaron and his partner Lucario. It comes with a picture, which seems to be the process of Aaron summoning the wave force.
Xiaozhi was instantly attracted by the picture. He stared at it for a long time, and suddenly he couldn’t help but put his right hand on his chest.
“The power of waveguide is in my heart…”
Xiaozhi whispered slowly.
Suddenly, a force invisible to others surged in Xiaozhi’s body. Xiaozhi slowly closed his eyes and stretched out the powerful force in his body. Suddenly, the world he observed changed completely.
The familiar classroom and classmates, the sound of writing with a pen, and the previous feeling of boredom all disappeared, leaving only the feedback from various waveguides.
“So there are only about 15,000 people in our town… Professor Oak’s research institute has so many Pokémons, I see…”
Xiaozhi carefully felt the waveguide of all things.
Just as it was written on Xiaozhi’s test paper: “Every human, Pokémon, and even everything in the world has a wave guide, but only some people can feel the existence of the wave guide, and even have the power to control it, and that’s us – the wave guide messengers!”
“There are still fifteen minutes until the end of the exam.”
While Xiaozhi was feeling the wave, 30 minutes passed unknowingly. Xiaozhi suddenly came to his senses, finished the last few questions, and then thought about the feeling of the wave power.
In the subsequent exams on arithmetic, moral education, science, etc., Xiaozhi completed the questions quickly while feeling the power of the wave.
During this period, Ash discovered that the power of wave can not only sense other people’s waves, but also investigate the environment, feel and see through objects, and transmit his own waves to others, even to Pokémon. In other words, Ash can use the power of wave to communicate with Pokémon, and even use it in battle!
For example, in a battle, if Xiaozhi uses the wave guide to give silent commands, he can catch the opponent off guard. Even when the opponent uses a special move like shadow clone, Xiaozhi will be able to see through it at a glance.
He can even issue orders faster than others! For example, Xiaozhi’s opponents have to shout out orders, but Xiaozhi can issue orders as soon as he thinks about it.
This is a huge advantage in combat!
As the number one in the real world ladder list, Xiaozhi’s combat talent is needless to say. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but clench his fists.
After the exam, Xiaozhi ignored Xiaolan and Xiaomao who were walking towards him, but immediately went out and went to Professor Oak’s office.
Chapter 4 Summer Camp (Old Version)
“Xiaozhi, how did you do on the exam?”
Professor Oak asked curiously when he saw Xiaozhi running towards him panting.
“Doctor, did you write the reading passage for the Chinese test?”
Xiaozhi asked, breathing heavily.
“How is that possible? That was taken from history books. There really is a person named Yalang in this world, and there is also such a thing as wave power.”
Professor Oak took a sip of tea, waved his hand and said.
“I have that ability too!”
Xiaozhi said something shocking.
“Okay, our Xiaozhi is really awesome, hahaha.”
Professor Oak said as he swallowed the tea he had just drunk.
This old man treats me like a child… Xiaozhi was instantly unhappy.
“Your institute has a total of 1,008 Pokémon, 72 eggs, and 687 Pokémon in Poké Balls.”
As if Xiaozhi was afraid that Professor Oak would not believe him, he closed his eyes again and felt the wave feedback from Professor Oak’s body. A familiar feeling lingered in Xiaozhi’s perception again. When he opened his eyes again, he showed a playful smile and continued.
“It turns out that Xiao Mao still sleeps with you. He even wet the bed last night. The handkerchief in your pocket was used to clean the sheets, but we haven’t had time to wash it yet… Doctor, you should wash it. It won’t be good if the smell gets on your clothes…”
Professor Oak, who was drinking tea, was choked and speechless.
Standing at the door at this time were Xiaomao and Xiaolan, who had just run in with Xiaozhi.
At this time, Xiao Mao was naturally petrified on the spot, while Xiao Lan was trying hard to hold back his smile.
Ever since Satoshi awakened the power of wave, Professor Oak has conducted a full-body examination on him. Perhaps because of the time travel or the habit of training since childhood, Satoshi possesses a stronger wave perception ability than others. In other words, Satoshi is the second wave hero to appear in the world besides Alang.
It is worth mentioning that Satoshi’s mother Hanako seemed to strongly disagree with Satoshi’s development of the power of wave. After hearing about it, she seemed to have a big quarrel with Professor Oak. This was also the first time that Satoshi saw the mild-tempered Hanako lose her temper.
As for the reason, when Xiaozhi asked, Professor Oak hesitated and was unwilling to say. Xiaozhi didn’t want to ask Hanako either, so he had to give up.
Fortunately, Xiaozhi spent a happy childhood in this world. With the company of his childhood sweethearts Xiaolan and Xiaomao, as well as the care of Hanako, Xiaozhi’s introverted personality developed in his previous life improved.
Just like that, before he knew it, Xiaozhi had already entered this world for the sixteenth year…
Pallet Town, Xiaozhi’s home…
“Summer camp?”
Looking at the flyer in Xiaomao’s hand, Xiaozhi and Xiaolan asked at the same time.
“It is said that this is not an ordinary summer camp. There are international students from other places coming to participate with us, and we can also play with wild Pokémon. How about it? Do you want to go?”
Xiao Mao continued to introduce incessantly.
Little Lan’s eyes seemed to be sparkling with stars as she watched, and she seemed to be very interested.
As for Xiaozhi, he still looks like he is not interested in anything. Although his personality has become much more cheerful, he still doesn’t like to interact with classmates other than Xiaomao and Xiaolan.
“Very interested!”
“Not interested…”
Xiaozhi and Xiaolan said at the same time.
Xiaomao and Xiaolan looked at Xiaozhi in surprise. According to Xiaozhi’s personality, although he didn’t like to interact with other people, he liked to get along with Pokémon very much. This summer camp gave him the opportunity to get along with wild Pokémon, but Xiaozhi had no interest?
“Look at the location, it’s just in the woods near Pallet Town. There are only Rattata and Caterpillar there. Instead of going with those little brats, it’s better to stay in the lab and help the Pokémon inside comb their fur…”
Seeing the two staring at Xiaozhi in surprise, Xiaozhi had to explain.
“But you can make friends!”
“Why would you want to make friends with them…”
“But it’s going to be fun!”
“Where’s the fun in that?”
“But…” The two began to persuade Xiaozhi, but every reason was rejected by Xiaozhi.
Xiaomao and Xiaolan were so angry that they were sweating profusely. In fact, they just wanted to go play together as a group of three, but Xiaozhi seemed to be unwilling to go no matter what.
At this time, Hanako walked up to the three of them with a plate of fruit.
“Xiaozhi, this sweet peach is delicious, please have some.”
Hanako reminded Satoshi.
“good”
Xiaozhi answered subconsciously.
Xiaolan scratched his head and asked, “Xiaozhi, don’t you dislike eating fruit?”
“If I don’t eat it, my mom will scold me again.”
Xiaozhi said as he picked up a sweet peach and started to eat it.
At this time, Xiaolan and Xiaomao looked at each other and seemed to have thought of something.
Yes, why should we start with this stubborn guy.
“Aunt!”
…………
Three weeks later.
Xiaozhi stood between Xiaomao and Xiaolan with his backpack on his back, waiting for the participants of the event other than the residents of Pallet Town in the classroom.
At this time, Xiaomao and Xiaolan didn’t dare to look at Xiaozhi, because even they didn’t expect that Hanako didn’t even discuss with Xiaozhi. She helped Xiaozhi pack his luggage yesterday, and directly kicked him out today.
“I said you…”
(Sorry, guys, I’m back. I was too busy during the school term. I’ll resume updating soon. Sorry!)

Chapter 6 Hello, my name is Serena (old version)
“Oh, Xiaozhi, we didn’t expect Aunt Hanako to call you out directly like this…” Xiaolan said embarrassedly, poking his finger.
“That’s right. Besides, it’s your fault that you can’t make your own decisions at such an adult. Ha!” Xiao Mao crossed his arms and said disdainfully.
“Better than when you were six years old and still didn’t dare to sleep alone…”
Xiaozhi’s words directly broke Xiaomao’s defense.
“What did you say?! I’m the number one genius in Pallet Town!”
“You don’t dare sleep alone at night.”
“I’m at the top of my class in school!”
“Don’t you dare sleep alone at night.”
“I…I…I’ve been getting so many awards!”
“You don’t dare sleep alone.”
“You don’t have any other words do you?”
Xiao Mao roared in anger, breaking his defense.
“Oh, you don’t dare sleep alone and wet the bed on Professor Oak.”
Xiaozhi said calmly.
“You…you…”
Shiro was so angry that he jumped up and down. When Satoshi saw Professor Oak enter the classroom, he ignored the furious Shiro and the snickering Lan and returned to his seat.
Just now, Xiaomao kept talking about how good he is. How about Xiaozhi? Xiaomao is not the only one who ranks among the top students in the school and gets many awards. Xiaozhi and Xiaolan are also like this. Xiaozhi is the strongest among the three, Xiaomao is the second, and Xiaolan is the third. The three of them are much better than other students in terms of learning ability and understanding of Pokémon.
This is also the reason why the three of them can play together.
At Satoshi’s request, Professor Oak gave Satoshi a single table. Seeing Satoshi’s request, Shaggy made the same request. This made the seating arrangement in the classroom very strange. Next to the podium were single tables for Satoshi and Shaggy respectively.
It is worth mentioning that in order to make the classroom beautiful, Dr. Oki provided two tables for two people even though the classroom was only for one person.
“Good morning everyone, are you looking forward to today’s summer camp?”
Professor Oak asked from the podium.
“expect!”
The students in the classroom responded immediately.
After half an hour of explaining the safety hazards, Professor Oak finally asked everyone to leave the classroom. However, Satoshi had already fallen asleep at this time. He was lying on the table and did not notice that everyone had left the classroom.
“Okay, let’s start the roll call now.”
“Little A”
“arrive”
“Ah B”
……
“Xiao Mao”
“Little Blue”
“Little Wisdom”
….
No response….
“Xiaozhi? Are you there?”
Professor Oak asked puzzledly, thinking that Xiaozhi was just sitting next to him, so it was impossible that he didn’t come.
“Doctor, Xiaozhi should be sleeping in the classroom now…”
Only then did Xiao Lan say this embarrassedly.
Because Xiaomao was almost fainted by Xiaozhi in the morning, after Xiaomao found that Xiaozhi had fallen asleep, Xiaomao pulled Xiaolan to prevent Xiaolan from waking Xiaozhi up, thus achieving his purpose of playing a prank.
“Alas… this child…”
Professor Oak really couldn’t leave now because he had to keep an eye on the children in the bus, so he asked a girl in the first row to get off and ask Xiaozhi to get on.
As for why they didn’t ask Xiaomao or Xiaolan to go? How could they dare? What if they lied to Xiaozhi after getting off the bus and told him that the summer camp was not going to start and asked him to go home?
The girl had blonde hair and blue eyes. It was obvious at first glance that she was not from Kanto. She wore a straw hat and blinked her beautiful eyes. Professor Oak asked, “Me?”
“Well, please, I have to watch these kids here, otherwise it will be troublesome if they sneak out of the car or move the steering wheel.”
Professor Oak explained.
The girl seemed a little introverted, but finally nodded and agreed.
The girl got out of the car quietly, followed the route indicated by Professor Oak, slowly went upstairs, knocked on the classroom door, and saw the boy who was sleeping.
Xiaozhi was very tall, even when he was sitting he was as tall as the girl’s shoulders. The girl patted Xiaozhi’s shoulder, and Xiaozhi woke up slowly.
Looking at the empty classroom and the strange girl, even Xiaozhi couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.
“Well…we are about to leave…you haven’t gotten in the car yet…I’ll come and call you…”
The girl clutched the corner of her clothes and said.
“Ah! Excuse me, let’s go…”
Xiaozhi finally understood what was going on. He patted his head and followed the girl out of the classroom.
After leaving the classroom, the two no longer communicated.
“Um…what’s your name, big brother?”
It was the girl who broke the silence.
“My name is Xiaozhi, I’m 16 years old”
Xiaozhi replied.
“What? You’re 16 too. I saw you were so tall. I thought you were older than me.”
The girl looked at Xiaozhi and said.
“What about you? What’s your name?”
“Hello, my name is Serena, and I’m from Carlos.”
Chapter 6: Strange Dreams (Old Version)
“Kalos? That’s far from here…”
Xiaozhi muttered softly. For him, he had rarely even been to the nearby Tokiwa City. He had lived in Pallet Town almost since he was a child and had never left this small town. Of course he felt a little emotional when he heard about other places.
“Yeah, my mom came to participate in the armored rhino riding competition. No one was taking care of me during this time, so I had to come to the summer camp.”
Serena seemed to have opened up as well and explained.
Xiaozhi nodded, and the two of them walked closer and closer to the bus rented by Professor Oak, and got on together.
After seeing the two of them in place, Professor Oak called the roll again before finally setting off.
After Xiaozhi got on the bus, Xiaolan quickly pointed to the seat in the last row between Xiaomao and himself, indicating to Xiaozhi that this seat was reserved for him.
Xiao Mao, on the other hand, made faces at Xiaozhi.
This made Xiaozhi speechless. These two people asked him to come to the summer camp together, but he accidentally fell asleep and didn’t even call him. What a shame.
Seeing Serena returned to the first row of seats, Xiaozhi was too lazy to look for Xiaomao and Xiaolan, and sat down directly next to Serena.
“Xiaozhi, isn’t your friend behind you?”
Serena asked in surprise.
“Ignore them.”
Unexpectedly, the first one among the three to make friends in the summer camp was the most introverted Xiaozhi.
“Look, look, this kid Xiaozhi is not interested in that blonde girl… I can’t tell, I didn’t expect Xiaozhi to like a girl like this.”
Xiao Mao looked like he was enjoying a good show, and poked Xiao Lan, who was silent beside him, with his elbow.
Yes, Xiaolan has fallen silent.
Xiaozhi actually sat next to the girl.
Didn’t you see yourself?
How is it possible…we have known each other for so many years.
Yes, you must not have seen me!
It’s not that Xiaolan is too sensitive, but that they grew up together. Xiaozhi is very outstanding. In the past sixteen years, there are naturally many girls who like Xiaozhi, but Xiaozhi usually doesn’t even look at those girls in the town. Those girls who tried to get close to Xiaozhi were rejected without exception.
And if you ask whether Blue has had feelings for Satoshi after all this time, the answer is definitely yes. After all, they have been friends for so many years, and the so-called love grows over time.
But because Xiaozhi was too dull and there were no girls around him, Xiaolan was not in a hurry. Until today, when that girl appeared, it seemed that all the peace was about to be broken.
They have been together for 16 years!
This world requires children to be 18 years old before they can travel. In fact, it is said that this age was 10 years old a long time ago. However, since most people are not mentally mature at the age of 10, the death rate of trainers who set out on a journey was very high, so the age was raised to 18.
And there is no need to do nothing before embarking on the journey. At the age of four, all children must receive compulsory education in a primary school, where they learn basic history, arithmetic, morality, and Chinese. When they are 10 years old, children who graduate from the primary school can pass the exam to enter the advanced school, where they learn about the knowledge, characteristics, potential, talents, etc. of various Pokémon.
When graduating from the advanced school, the Union government will evaluate the students’ performance based on the final level test, with four levels of ABCD, and thus issue different initial elves and receive different treatments.
The level test is the highest level test in this world. Only trainers who pass the level test can become trainers recognized by the league. Only with a certain level can they be eligible to use the Pokémon Center for free and get discounts in major shopping malls.
Of course, A-level Pokémon are the starter Pokémon, which are most suitable for training by new trainers and have gentle personalities.
B-level includes some common Pokémons, such as Rattata, Bobo, etc.
C-level players can only get the Pokémon Encyclopedia and Poké Balls provided by the Alliance, and even have to obtain the initial Pokémon themselves.
A D-level trainer can only get the status of a trainer, which includes free use of the Pokémon Center and trainer privileges. That’s all.
Of course, only the top 60% in the country can get a level. The rest who fail to pass the level test can only fail to become trainers recognized by the league. Some people embark on the journey at their own expense and naturally may succeed. Some people give up and find an ordinary job to live a stable life.
So how can a trainer who has not been recognized be recognized? That is to participate in the national competition, travel at your own expense, collect eight badges, and participate in the annual national competition.
There is another way after the level test, that is to go to college. The university entrance examination is open to all students who have graduated from advanced schools. No matter how your level test is, you can take the university entrance examination. If you fail the level test and really want to become a trainer, you can take the university entrance examination on your own and apply for the battle major. After completing their credit training, college students majoring in the battle major can directly participate in the national competition and become trainers recognized by the league. Students with other needs can also apply for the research major to become a researcher, the breeding major to become a breeder, and the teaching major to become a Pokémon teacher.
Xiaozhi fell asleep again on the bus without realizing it, and he had a strange dream while sleeping. He dreamed that he returned to his original world, and Hanako, Xiaolan, and Xiaomao all left him. This actually made Xiaozhi well up with tears in the corners of his eyes.
In the dream, there was darkness and desolation around Xiaozhi. At this time, a yellow figure slowly walked to his side, with a lightning-shaped tail and orange-red electric sacs. It was a Pokémon.
But in an instant, the yellow Pokémon actually ran in the opposite direction of Xiaozhi.
“don’t want!”
Xiaozhi went forward and hugged him. Although he had been a loner in the past sixteen years, he was not willing to lose his friends. He had long been accustomed to friendship, the company of Xiaomao and Xiaolan, and the love of his mother Hanako. He no longer wanted to be as lonely as before.
“Xiaozhi! Xiaozhi! Are you okay?”
At this moment, a familiar voice appeared in Xiaozhi’s mind.
Xiaozhi slowly opened his eyes and found that what he was holding was not a yellow Pokémon, but a hand.
Following this hand, Xiaozhi naturally saw the owner of the voice.
It turned out to be Serena.
“Oh, sorry, I had a very strange dream…”
Xiaozhi quickly let go and apologized to Serena.
Serena took back her hand, shook her head, and asked with concern: “It’s okay, I saw that you seemed to be crying, and I was worried that something happened to you, so I wanted to wake you up, and then you hugged my hand.”
Chapter 7 Ladder System (Old Version)
After apologizing to Serena, Xiaozhi was already frightened by the dream and no longer wanted to sleep. He looked out the window alone, thinking about his past experiences.
In fact, people don’t feel very painful when they are in the dark, but one day when you meet the haze again after experiencing happiness, you will feel how strong you were at that time.
Xiaozhi stood up, left his seat and walked towards the last row of seats.
“Xiao Mao, lend me your phone.”
Xiao Mao was about to refuse subconsciously, but when he saw Xiao Zhi’s serious face, as a playmate who grew up together, Xiao Mao quickly saw through Xiao Zhi’s seriousness, realized that something really happened, and took out his cell phone.
Due to the existence of elves in this world, the signal is surprisingly weak, so mobile phones are very expensive, and only rich kids like Xiaomao can buy them.
Xiaozhi returned to his seat and entered the URL that he was most familiar with. To his surprise, the interface that he was most familiar with actually appeared!
There is actually a Pokemon ladder battle platform in this world!
It was still the most familiar start button, and Xiaozhi pressed it subconsciously.
It’s still the same familiar reading first. In the 16 years of life in the Pokémon world, Xiaozhi’s strength seems to have become even stronger.
Winner.
When he saw his ladder points increase from 0 to 31, Xiaozhi realized that he had not played this game for 16 years.
To Xiaozhi’s surprise, a voice appeared in his mind.
(“Beep, detection successful, confirming that the host is ranked first in the ladder, the ladder system has awakened, thank you, my master.”)
This is?
Xiaozhi was confused. He was not unfamiliar with the system. Every time traveler had one. He was also a time traveler, and he had fantasized about it before. But because so much time had passed, Xiaozhi had given up long ago. He didn’t expect that it took him 16 years to successfully awaken the system after he came to this world.
Xiaozhi thought he was dreaming at first, but as he closed his eyes, he suddenly saw the system interface and had to believe it even if he didn’t want to.
“You call it the Ladder System, right? I’ve been in this world for sixteen years, why did you suddenly awaken only now?”
(“Hello, I am a system born from the Pokemon Ladder Battle Platform. Before you came to this world, you were the number one on the Pokemon Ladder Ranking, so I belong to you.”)
(“The Pokemon Ladder Battle Platform is essentially a bridge between the Pokemon World and the Animal World. In the Pokemon Ladder Leaderboard, the Pokemon leadership abilities of trainers in the two worlds are ranked, and you are the only one in the Animal World who can reach the top of the ladder. Sensing your love for Pokemon, the system has spent almost all of its energy to teleport you to this world. It was not until the host just boarded the battle platform again to gain ladder points that the system awakened again.”)
The system explained in an orderly manner.
“So what can you do?”
Xiaozhi asked again, because he knew nothing about this system now.
(“Host can ask me any questions about Pokémon, but major questions require ladder points, which can be obtained through real-life battles and conquering Pokémon”)
“Ladder points? What are those?”
(“Next, the system will record all the host’s actions. Defeating other trainers and capturing Pokémon will earn points. Defeating trainers on the ladder leaderboard can earn large points. Points can be used to change Pokémon breeding methods, as well as information about unknown Pokémon and practical tools.”)
Then, a table that Xiaozhi was very familiar with entered Xiaozhi’s mind.
It was exactly the ladder list when he traveled through time.
There are a total of 2,000 people. Except for Ash who is a time traveler, the rest are trainers from this world. Ash will meet them during his travels two years later and defeat them one by one!
Now Xiaozhi’s grades are very good, and it is almost certain that he will get A grade in the level test. As for going to college, Xiaozhi has never thought about it. Xiaozhi has already made an agreement with Xiaomao and Xiaolan that the three of them will compete with each other and promote each other to become the strongest trainers in the world.
At this time, Xiaozhi possesses the power of waves and the celestial system, as well as a strong combat talent, which means that Xiaozhi must be a future star!
Xiaozhi checked the functions of the system, namely: data display, training method query, skill query, and redemption.
In the exchange column, Xiaozhi saw 100 skill learning devices currently invented in Kanto and several functions, namely special characteristics change, talent improvement, potential improvement, and evolution stone purification.
The skill learner is actually not that bad, with prices ranging from 1,000 to 8,000 ladder points, but changing that special feature, improving talent, increasing potential, and purifying evolution stones all require a full 10,000 points!
(There will be another update later)
Chapter 8: Fated Pichu (Old Version)
For Xiaozhi who just got the system, today is definitely special, but it still cannot change the fact that he has to attend this boring summer camp.
As Xiaozhi observed the system interface over and over again, time passed quickly. As the bus stopped, everyone finally arrived at the plain in the small forest near Pallet Town.
In fact, this plain is not far from Pallet Town, it is just separated by a large forest and the bus cannot drive in. If you walk, you may have arrived earlier, but this is a summer camp. In order to ensure the safety of the children, Professor Oak would rather take a detour than let the children risk getting hurt by walking in the forest.
“……So everyone must pay attention to safety, understand?”
“knew!”
Professor Oak’s assistant had already set up the tent. After Professor Oak explained some precautions, the children agreed in unison and returned to their tents to pack up their things.
———————
Thirty minutes later, everyone gathered in the camp again. Dr. Oak called the roll again and signaled his assistant to help count the number of people. After the assistant nodded, Dr. Oak clapped his hands and said to everyone: “Okay, students, please be quiet. Everyone is here, so let’s get started.”
“good!”
The chattering of the students below immediately disappeared after Professor Oak’s request. Everyone sat down on the ground obediently, while Xiaozhi was pulled to a corner by Xiaolan and Xiaomao to sit down.
Professor Oak mainly talks about some notes on how to get along with elves. Such a rare opportunity to practice is rare.
The Pallet School has both an advanced school department and a junior school department, which educates every child born in Pallet Town. As the principal, Professor Oak often gives lectures outside and often provides scientific knowledge to students. Naturally, he knows how to make knowledge something that everyone is interested in. Except for Xiaozhi and the other two, all the students present listened attentively, and some students even took out notes.
Time passed quickly. Dr. Oak naturally ignored the three college bullies, Tomoe and Lan, who didn’t listen to the class. He talked nonstop for forty minutes. Finally, when he saw that the time was almost up, Dr. Oak took the cup handed to him by his assistant, took a sip of water, and said with a smile: “Students, the knowledge you just learned cannot be learned in school. Everyone must remember it well.”
“Okay!” The students now admired Professor Oak very much and answered loudly.
“Very good.” Professor Oak put down the cup and nodded with satisfaction. “We are going to the forest to make friends with the elves there. There are many wild elves there, but most of them are very gentle. Everyone should get along well with them.”
As soon as these words came out, the students shouted excitedly. Practice always has a great appeal to students, just like in the world before Xiaozhi, in science or physics and chemistry classes, whenever the teacher said to do an experiment, both good students and bad students would be very happy, because there were really not many opportunities to come into contact with it, and they just dealt with textbooks every day. Only Xiaozhi and a few others didn’t take it seriously.
The forest in Pallet Town can be said to be the place he visits most often besides Professor Oak’s laboratory. The wild Pokémon in it are all very weak. Some Pokémon are even so weak that they are not worthy of being brought in, otherwise Professor Oak would not be at ease to bring so many students without Pokémon in.
After explaining some safety hazards, Professor Oak led a large group of students into the forest. The occasional appearance of a caterpillar or a hornworm would cause a burst of chirping.
There’s no way. As students, even though they learn all about Pokémon, they have very few opportunities to observe wild Pokémon up close. Just like in Ash’s world, they always learn a bunch of chemical equations, but how many people have actually talked about those chemicals?
Xiaozhi felt really bored, so he said hello to Professor Oak and said he wanted to go back to the camp. After Professor Oak asked his assistant to take Xiaozhi back to the camp, Xiaozhi sneaked out of the camp again while no one was paying attention and started wandering in the forest.
After leaving the main group, Xiaozhi walked alone in the forest, and from time to time he used the system to scan the data of the wild Pokémon here. Unfortunately, the talents and potentials of these wild Pokémon were so low.
At this time, the tree above Xiaozhi’s head trembled, and then a small elf fell from the tree and landed on Xiaozhi’s head. This elf was only as big as Xiaozhi’s palm. Xiaozhi took it off his head, put it on his palm, and looked at it in confusion. This little guy didn’t seem to be afraid of strangers. He didn’t run away when he saw Xiaozhi, and was also looking at Xiaozhi. It is worth mentioning that this little guy was holding a blue orange that was almost as big as himself. It seemed that it fell from the tree when picking fruit.
“Is this, Pichu?”
Xiaozhi was very surprised because actually wild Pichu is very rare. In Kanto, Pikachu is a very common Pokémon, but its degenerated form, Pichu, is not.
The reason is simple. It is precisely because of the harsh breeding conditions of Pichu that Pikachu can only give birth to Pichu under musk conditions.
Therefore, most of the time, Pichu are artificially cultivated in breeding houses, and wild Pichu are indeed very rare.
Pikachu was staring at Xiaozhi on his palm, and it seemed that an indescribable feeling arose spontaneously, and a strange feeling gradually surged in Xiaozhi’s heart.
But the prompt from the system at this time did surprise Xiaozhi.
(“The host’s destined elf has been detected. The information is as follows.”)
Destined Pichu
Name: Pichu
Gender: Male
Features: Electrostatic
Attribute: Electricity
Skills: Electric shock, tail wagging
Level: Low
Information: It is very small but not good at storing electricity. It will discharge electricity involuntarily when frightened. It tastes sour. It is the Pokémon destined for Xiaozhi and is destined to meet Xiaozhi. Its talent potential is increased to infinity when Xiaozhi cultivates it.
(“Everyone is the darling of the fate line, and everyone has his or her own destined elf. The destined elf will burst out with terrible potential when cultivated by oneself, but most people will miss it after meeting it.”)
The system further explained.
Chapter 9 Best Partner (Old Version)
Is this my destined elf?
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but think to himself.
“Wait a minute.”
Xiaozhi put the Pichu in his hand on the ground, bent down to take off his backpack, and took out the yogurt that Xiaolan had put in his bag. It was full of mangoes and blue oranges wrapped in yogurt. Xiaozhi opened the package and placed it in front of Pichu.
“Eat it.”
Xiaozhi nudged the yogurt in front of him, and Pichu carefully moved closer to smell it, then suspiciously put down the blue orange in his hand and dipped his hand in it to taste it.
“Pichu!”
Almost instantly, a look of disbelief appeared on Pichu’s face, as if it was the first time it had eaten something so delicious, and it began to gobble it up. In less than a moment, Pichu had finished the whole cup of yogurt.
At this time, Pichu’s face was covered with yogurt, so Xiaozhi took out a handkerchief and wiped Pichu’s face.
And Pikachu also smiled at Xiaozhi, seeming to trust him very much.
Seeing Pichu so happy, Xiaozhi seemed to have thought of something and tried to invite him: “Pichu, let’s go together, okay? Let’s be my best friends in the future, okay?”
Pichu tilted his head and picked up the blue orange fruit again. He seemed to want to agree, but he had some unspeakable secret, so he finally shook his head.
Xiaozhi felt a little disappointed, but he did not leave in disappointment. He took out another box of yogurt from his backpack and gave it to Pichu.
Pikachu looked at Xiaozhi, as if he had thought of something. He stopped Xiaozhi from pushing the yogurt, looked around, and soon found the target, which was a big tree full of yellow and red fruits.
Pikachu immediately came under the tree, and Xiaozhi followed. Pichu pointed at the fruit on the tree and looked at Xiaozhi again.
“Is that…Bayago?”
Xiaozhi understood instantly that this guy had not eaten enough. Xiaozhi, who had been exercising since childhood, had a very strong physique. He jumped lightly and hugged the upper part of the tree root. He climbed to the top of the tree easily, picked a few baya fruits from it, and jumped lightly again to the ground.
This made Pikachu stunned. This human’s physical fitness is so strong!
“Come, take a look and see if it’s right.” Xiaozhi handed the fruit to Pikachu.
“This is the baya fruit, which many elves like.”
Although most of the fruits are delicious, there are still a small number of fruits that are not suitable for human taste, such as this Baja fruit, which is really not good. Xiaozhi once took a bite out of curiosity, and it was so sour that Xiaozhi was speechless.
“Pichu~”
Pichu walked up, sniffed, nodded, then ran away happily. Not knowing the reason, Xiaozhi had to follow.
After a while, Pikachu and Xiaozhi came to the depths of a forest.
What made Xiaozhi’s eyes light up was that a group of huge Pokémon appeared in front of him.
It turned out to be a marsupial!
Bulbasaur is a type of Pokémon that lives in groups. It is very rare and powerful, but its protective nature towards its children becomes its biggest disadvantage in battles and few trainers have been able to capture it.
Pikachu brought Ash straight to a marsupial. The marsupial looked at little Pichu kindly, and the little marsupial in the bag also greeted Pichu happily.
But when the marsupial saw Xiaozhi, he was stunned.
How could there be humans in this place? This shouldn’t be the case.
“Hello, these are the fruits that Pichu and I picked together.”
Xiaozhi’s way of greeting was very simple, and after Pichu’s explanation, the marsupials finally understood the origins of the human in front of them.
Xiaozhi possesses the power of waves, which allows him to communicate with Pokémons without any obstacles. Naturally, he quickly becomes friends with this group of gentle marsupials.
It turns out that since the day Pichu was born, it has been threatened by various natural enemies because of its solitary life, such as the Arbok clan, the Gas Bomb clan, etc. Pichu once even fell off a cliff because of inhaling the poisonous gas of a Gas Bomb. Fortunately, he was rescued by a mother marsupial and his son. Since then, Pichu has been living among the marsupial clan.
The mother marsupial treats the little Pichu as her own child, without any favoritism. She is very kind to Pichu. Pichu and the little marsupial get along very well, which makes Pichu very happy during this period.
But Xiaozhi always felt that the wave feedback from Pichu seemed to be a little worried, and was definitely not as happy as it looked on the surface.
Unexpected things happen. Suddenly, when Xiaozhi was playing with the herd of marsupials, it started to rain heavily.
The baby marsupial and Pichu were stuffed into the pouch of the mother marsupial, while Xiaozhi followed behind the marsupial and ran towards a cave with the herd of marsupials.
While the Pokémon were running in the rain, Ash discovered that the mother Marco seemed very tired. Her speed was gradually failing to keep up with the group, and she seemed to be getting farther and farther away from the group.
At this time, Pichu squeezed out of the crowded pouch. As Pichu and the baby marsupial grew, the pouch was no longer as loose as when Pichu first came in.
“Pichu Pichu! (I can do it all by myself, let’s catch up with everyone quickly.)”
Pichu said to the mother and son of the marsupial.
The mother marsupial did not respond, but shook her head and put the Pichu that had jumped to the ground back into the pouch.
“Let me do it.”
At this time, Xiaozhi’s voice made Pikachu and Marmoset look up at the same time. Marmoset looked at Pichu, then looked at Xiaozhi, and finally put Pichu on Xiaozhi’s shoulder.
Perhaps the marsupial mother has already realized that she cannot take care of this child for the rest of her life, and at this time, it seems to have found someone she can entrust her child to.
Xiaozhi carried Pichu on his shoulder and ran towards the cave with the mother and son of the marsupial again.
Perhaps the spring breeze blowing as children grow up and the blooming and falling of flowers reflecting time is just like this.
When they arrived at the cave where they were hiding from the rain, Pichu climbed down from Xiaozhi’s shoulders and walked up to the mother and son marsupials.
“Pichu… (Mom, Pouch, I…)”
Tears welled up in Pichu’s eyes, and the words came to his lips but he couldn’t seem to say them.
“Ah…Ah! (Go ahead, kid, do whatever you want, I can’t protect you forever!)”
The mother marsupial came to Pichu, and the little marsupial went forward and hugged Pichu.
“Pikachu…”
At this time, Pichu seemed to have finally made up his mind. A feeling of pain of separation surged into his heart, and white light began to burst out from his body, attracting the attention of all the marsupials.
The light of evolution, from then on, this Pichu evolved into Pikachu.
After completing the evolutionary transformation, Pikachu was much bigger than Pichu, and its strength became even stronger. Immediately, the marsupials burst into warm applause.
Pikachu was still adjusting to his new body, and Xiaozhi slowly came to his front.
“From now on, we’ll be best friends, okay?”
“Pikachu!”
This time, Xiaozhi’s response was no longer a shake of the head and hesitation, but a firm nod.
An hour later, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up. Xiaozhi took Pikachu to say goodbye to the herd of marsupials. Pikachu looked a little sad on Xiaozhi’s shoulder. Xiaozhi touched Pikachu’s back, and Pikachu looked at Xiaozhi firmly.
Life is always like this, a parting is always accompanied by another encounter. A few years later, the boy from Pallet Town, Ash, the 18-year-old Ash, took this encounter as the starting point, and the story of Ash and Pikachu began.
Chapter 10 We will definitely see each other again, right? (4,000 words in one chapter) (Old version)
Just when Xiaozhi and Pikachu left the cave, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up in the camp, but the people in the camp were not as happy as Xiaozhi.
“Xiaozhi! Xiaozhi! Where are you!”
Professor Oak and everyone in the camp shouted at the top of their lungs, and everyone immediately returned to the camp when it started to rain. But when Professor Oak counted the number of people, how could he not notice that Satoshi was missing?
Xiaomao and Xiaolan were also looking for him anxiously. These two were true friends. Although some of their actions usually made Xiaozhi speechless, they were still very worried about Xiaozhi’s safety at this time.
The little girl in the straw hat seemed to be slowly moving away from the team because she was looking for Xiaozhi. She was carefully looking for Xiaozhi’s footsteps in the woods. Her long golden hair quickly revealed her identity as a Kalos person, and her pair of green eyes, which were unique in Kanto, blinked nervously.
“Xiaozhi! Everyone! Where are you all?!”
Serena obviously had no travel experience and quickly lost her way in the woods.
Suddenly, there was a sudden shaking in the bushes next to them, making the quiet environment tense and Serena’s throat rise with nervousness.
“Don’t come over here!”
Serena said in fear as she stepped back.
His legs suddenly went weak and he fell to the ground in an instant.
Serena was so frightened that she didn’t even have time to cry out in pain. She pushed herself back little by little with her hands, looking at the bushes in horror.
Suddenly, a mosquito coil tadpole jumped out from it.
The tadpole looked at Serena, then looked behind itself, and hurriedly jumped away, as if avoiding something, and soon disappeared from Serena’s sight.
Seeing that the danger was over, Serena’s defenses finally collapsed. Tears welled up in her eyes and she cried, “That’s why I said I didn’t want to come to summer camp…”
Indeed, she was not happy at all during her time in the summer camp. If there was anything she gained from the camp, it was just making a friend, Xiaozhi.
What frightened Serena again was that the grass was shaking violently again, which frightened Serena so much that she became nervous again. She couldn’t control her tears, which flowed down her face like crazy.
“Pikachu, let’s chase him! Mosquito! Don’t run!”
As a familiar voice sounded, the fear in Serena’s heart subsided a little.
Xiaozhi and Pikachu were chasing the mosquito tadpole when they rushed out of the woods and were very surprised to see the figure in front of them.
“Serena? Why are you here? Are you hurt?”
Serena stared at Xiaozhi for a long time before she came back to her senses. There was a hint of complaint in her eyes, and her red eyes were still filled with crystal tears. She said, “Where have you been? We have been looking for you for a long time, and then I got lost. Now my foot is injured. What should I do…”
“Oh, I made you worry… Never mind, let’s take a look at your foot.” After saying that, Xiaozhi came to Serena, frowned when he saw the swelling, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket, moistened it with cold water, and placed it on Serena’s injured area.
“It’s so cold!” Serena couldn’t help but say as she felt the cold touch.
“It’s a sprain. You have to apply ice, or it will be even more swollen tomorrow.”
After a while, as time passed, the ice was almost applied, and Xiaozhi said to Serena: “I’ll carry you back. You can’t walk now, so try to stand up.”
After that, Xiaozhi half squatted down, revealing his back.
“It hurts!” Serena tried, but immediately sat on the ground again.
Serena had just cried, and her expression was very adorable now. Her voice was also tearful, and it seemed that tears would flow from her red eyes again at any time.
Xiaozhi stood up again, stretched out his hand, and encouraged Serena: “It’s okay, I just applied ice to you, it’s no problem to stand up, let’s go back to the camp together to apply medicine, okay?”
“Pika Pika!” Pikachu also jumped out at the right time to cheer for Serena, which scared Serena, but seeing that this Pikachu seemed to have a good relationship with Xiaozhi, she soon felt relieved.
Serena looked at her swollen ankle, hesitated for a moment, and gently grabbed Xiaozhi’s hands.
Xiaozhi pulled gently and Serena stood up, but it seemed that due to inertia, Serena fell forward as soon as she stood up.
“Ah!” Serena couldn’t help but exclaimed, seeming very scared, but then she was wrapped in a warmth and the scent of male hormones. Xiaozhi used his arms to stop Serena who was about to fall to the ground.
Although this embrace is not strong, it is still very warm.
“I told you there’s no problem, didn’t I?” Xiaozhi steadied Serena and said with a smile.
After saying that, he turned his back again and half squatted, revealing his not-so-broad but very solid back.
“Come on up, let’s go back to the camp first, otherwise the doctor and the others will go crazy.”
Serena felt Xiaozhi’s breath and was a little dazed. It took her a long time to react and answer.
“Ahh…Okay.”
So she leaned lightly on Xiaozhi’s back.
Xiaozhi carried Serena on his back and walked towards the camp. Serena gently put her arms around Xiaozhi’s neck, and the breath she exhaled unintentionally made the back of Xiaozhi’s neck a little itchy.
“Xiaozhi, will you go traveling in the future?”
Serena found a topic for the two of them to talk about.
Hearing this, Xiaozhi paused slightly, but quickly continued to reply.
“Of course, I will become a powerful trainer.” Xiaozhi looked at Pikachu firmly and said.
“A powerful trainer?” Serena murmured softly.
“It’s great that I know what I want to do in the future so quickly.”
“Nothing. I’m just following the path a normal trainer should take.”
In fact, Xiaozhi is very disgusted with this kind of conventional path. His grades are not bad, even very good, but aren’t people like him the same?
Taking level tests, getting the right starting Pokémon, gym competitions, league tournaments, and champions leagues, it seemed like every path he took was determined, which made Xiaozhi very uncomfortable.
Xiaozhi actually doesn’t like to follow the path that others have walked. It seems that everyone in this world has a main task chain to move forward from birth. At the age of 4, they receive compulsory education in primary school, and at the age of 10, they can either attend advanced school, travel at their own expense, or go out to work. But how many people can reach the top of the latter two sets of paths?
At the age of 18, if you pass the level test, everyone is happy and can either go out to travel or continue to prepare for the university entrance examination. If you fail, in fact, most people will choose to directly choose other jobs, because there are almost no people who do poorly in the level test and can get into university in one go.
This world is too cruel, and it seems that they will not be able to succeed unless they follow this task chain.
—————————
After Xiaozhi brainstormed for a long time, the two slowly walked to the entrance of the camp.
“Doc! They’re back!”
Serena really enjoys spending time alone with Satoshi. Although Satoshi is a bit dull, he is actually a very rich person inside. This time alone has allowed Serena to get to know Satoshi better.
Just when Serena was about to say something, Professor Oak and his assistant saw the people coming back and immediately ran towards them. After seeing that they were fine, they immediately recalled everyone who was looking for Satoshi and Serena in the forest.
“Ash, and Serena! Where the hell were you guys? This is such a mess! Luckily you’re both okay!”
There was still some anxiety on Professor Oak’s face, but his brows relaxed instantly when he saw the two of them.
This is the summer camp organized by Professor Oak himself. If anything happens to a student here, he will never be able to forgive himself.
“I’m sorry, I got lost in the forest when I went to look for Satoshi.” Serena apologized to Professor Oak with a sincere attitude.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Professor Oak waved his hand with a smile. Only then did Professor Oak seem to notice the actions of Satoshi and Serena.
Is this guy doing this on someone’s back?
That’s pretty good!
Professor Oak instantly smiled like an auntie, and Xiaozhi looked at the frivolous old man and spoke.
“She sprained her ankle. Do you have safflower oil or something like that? I’ll apply some on her.”
At this time, Dr. Oak reacted and walked up to Serena to look at the swollen area.
“Oh, it’s so swollen, is it serious?”
Professor Oak instantly dropped his smile and asked with concern.
“I’m much better now. Xiaozhi applied ice to me and it doesn’t hurt much now. Thank you.” Serena thanked Professor Oak with a smile.
“That’s good, that’s good. Um, go over there and apply some medicine first.”
After saying that, Dr. Oak asked his assistant to take Serena to apply medicine, but when Serena left, Dr. Oak’s face changed instantly.
Professor Oak changed his friendly and smiling face and asked Xiaozhi with a stern face: “Are you in a relationship? Do you still have the mood to be in a relationship?”
“Ah? I didn’t.” Xiaozhi thought that Professor Oak might scold him, and was ready to ignore it.
“It’s bad enough that you sneaked away, but you also made everyone work so hard to find you. Serena was injured because of you, did you know that?” Professor Oak was very angry.
“Xiao Lan has cried so hard to find you that her voice has become hoarse, and Xiao Mao is still looking for you in the woods. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
“Then I can’t help it. What you said is too boring… Um… Is Xiaolan okay?”
“You are really…”
Professor Oak was thinking about continuing to educate Ash, but suddenly he noticed the Pikachu on Ash’s shoulder, and immediately he showed his amiable smile again like a master of face-changing.
“It’s a Pikachu. Judging from the electric sac, it must have just evolved. Pikachus like this are rare. There are actually wild Pikachus…”
Professor Oak is a professional. As soon as he saw Pikachu, he understood its condition and told it directly.
“This is my best friend.” Xiaozhi picked up Pikachu from his shoulders and held it in front of Professor Oak.
“Oh.” Professor Oak looked at Pikachu for a while, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he smiled.
“This Pikachu has a nice fur color. As a solitary Pokémon, it can take care of itself so well.”
Xiaozhi continued to tell Professor Oak: “It doesn’t live alone. It has lived with the marsupial for a long time. It almost thinks of itself as a little marsupial.”
After that, Xiaozhi told Professor Oak what had just happened.
“Pikachu~” Pikachu waved his hands and watched Satoshi and Professor Oak chattering.
“You’re so good, but I remember…” Professor Oak reached out and wanted to touch Pikachu’s head, which scared Pikachu.
“Pika?!”
Pikachu subconsciously released a bolt of electricity.
“It’s so numb!!”
“I knew that all electric mouse elves are shy like this…”
Professor Oak wanted to test Pikachu’s character himself, so he deserved to be electrocuted, but Satoshi was also shot even though he was lying next to him.
Fortunately, Pikachu is not at a high level and is young, so the electric shock doesn’t hurt, but it is uncomfortable either. As smart as Xiaozhi is, he immediately said to Pikachu.
“Pikachu, you can’t use electric shock on anyone except that grandpa. That grandpa deserves to be punished. If you have nothing to do, you can go and shock him to train your energy storage.” Xiaozhi said to Professor Oak pretending to be serious.
“Xiaozhi! What are you talking about?” This made Professor Oak anxious, and he immediately asked Xiaozhi.
“Who told you to provoke it?”
“I just want to try it!”
As the students who were looking for Satoshi slowly returned to the camp, Professor Oak’s summer camp activities continued in an orderly manner. It is worth mentioning that Professor Oak seemed to have listed Satoshi as a key focus. He would check every ten minutes to see if Satoshi was still there. Soon a week passed and the summer camp was about to end.
Serena and Xiaozhi sat on the grass in the camp, watching the beautiful sunset.
During the summer camp, Serena and Satoshi became friends, but what was strange was that Satoshi originally wanted to introduce Blue and Shiro to Serena, but what made Satoshi strange was that whenever he was alone with Serena, Shiro would pull Blue away, no matter how reluctant Blue was, he would be dragged away by Shiro. This was the main reason why Satoshi was able to stay with Serena most of the time, but they had to part because of the end of summer camp before they had been together for long, which made Serena very reluctant.
“Xiaozhi, my mom’s competition is over and the summer camp is about to end. I have to go back to Kalos’ place early tomorrow morning.” Serena’s tone was a little low.
“Kalos, I really want to go there.” Xiaozhi seemed to have misunderstood the point that Serena wanted to make.
This is not the first time that Xiaozhi has expressed his desire to visit other places.
Serena was a little speechless and said, “Don’t you have anything else to say besides this?”
“Then… I’ll come play with you next time I go?”
“well.”
Serena felt even more helpless, thinking that this straight man really didn’t understand romance, so she just gave up, and a blush flashed across her pretty face as she said, “Xiaozhi, you can’t forget me!”
“Huh?” Xiaozhi was stunned when he heard this. He and Serena had been together for a week and they were friends after all. How could he forget Serena?
Looking at Serena’s blushing face and slightly ambiguous eyes, Xiaozhi looked Serena in the eye and said firmly: “We will definitely meet again in the future, right?”
Serena looked into Xiaozhi’s eyes, nodded slightly, smiled again, and said to Xiaozhi: “Yes, I will definitely see you again.”
Chapter 11: Tokiwa City Third High School (Old Version)
After the summer camp ended, Satoshi returned to his own life again, attending classes, studying, and doing homework every day. Pikachu, who couldn’t go to school with Satoshi, stayed at home with Hanako. Hanako loved this little guy very much and cooked a lot of delicious food for Pikachu every day. Pikachu had gained a lot of weight visibly in the past two years, but fortunately, Satoshi would take this guy to Miyazaki Mountain behind Pallet Town for training after school every day, so both his level and combat experience were no longer comparable to what they were two years ago.
Today is the day that Xiaozhi takes the level test. The children of Pallet Shin Academy need to take a bus to Tokiwa City to take a unified test there.
Xiaozhi did not lie in bed today, but was very serious. After all, there is only one exam in life, so Xiaozhi must treat it well.
Compared to other children, Xiaozhi is actually more like a genius or a gifted person, because no one knows why his grades are so good. Among all the students in the entire Pallet Shin Academy, he is the only one who has achieved A grades in all the mock exams.
Even Xiaomao and Xiaolan failed a few times, but Xiaozhi was really stable and terrifying.
Before coming to this world, Xiaozhi had already been the number one in the ladder of the Pokemon battle platform. His starting point was much higher than everyone else. Since entering the advanced school, Xiaozhi did not like studying, but he never slacked off. All of this was due to his terrible love for Pokémon.
“Xiaozhi, you have to work hard, okay?”
After breakfast, seeing Xiaozhi carrying his schoolbag, Hanako did not watch Xiaozhi leave as usual. Instead, she walked up to Xiaozhi and patted her son on the shoulder.
Eighteen years passed in a flash, and the child has grown into an eighteen-year-old adult, and he is about to take a test that will affect the rest of his life.
“Don’t worry, I won’t make any mistakes, Mom. You and Pikachu can wait for me at home.”
“Pika Pika~”
Pikachu barked twice and came to rub against Xiaozhi.
When Xiaozhi saw Pikachu running in front of him, he picked up Pikachu and handed it to Hanako, then walked out the door.
The door opened, and in front of Xiaozhi was a handsome boy with a brown hedgehog head and a beautiful girl with waterfall-like black hair and a cute round face.
It was Xiaomao and Xiaolan, who were already 18 years old.
Even though Xiaomao still has the air of a rich boy, this guy is really good-looking, and Xiaolan has grown from a girl next door into a graceful beauty. Standing on the muddy path in Pallet Town, the two of them are very eye-catching.
This is the power of youth. No matter who you are, you will always be full of vigor during this period of time. Xiaozhi has grown up now. He was very sunny and handsome when he was a child. Now he is as handsome as Xiaomao. He is also sunny and handsome, but he always has a cold expression on his face, as if he has no interest in anything.
“Let’s go.”
Xiaozhi said.
“You’re not late today?”
Xiao Mao came up and put his arm around Xiao Zhi’s shoulders, smiling.
“I’m late for the level test, so you can take it for me.”
Xiaozhi said as he slapped away Xiaomao’s hand on his shoulder.
“Okay, let’s go, it’s already 6:10 and we have to enter the exam room at 8 o’clock.”
Xiao Lan reminded the two of them.
The three of them walked out of the gate of Pallet Town. Route 1 was right outside Pallet Town. Satoshi and his two friends, as well as all the students in Pallet Academy who needed to take the level test, needed to take the bus here and pass through Route 1.
Of course, this is also the only way from Pallet Town to Viridian City.
But many novice trainers don’t actually take the bus, because Route 1 contains a small forest where they may be able to encounter a Pokémon that suits them.
Students like Xiaozhi or people who go to Tokiwa City for business will of course choose to take the bus.
Of course, as a young master, Xiaomao originally planned to drive Xiaozhi and Xiaolan over there, but was rejected by Xiaozhi and Xiaolan.
Indeed, driving is very convenient, but it loses the experience of going to the examination center together.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Xiaozhi and Xiaolan don’t want to miss it, so Xiaomao has no choice but to follow them on the bus.
In less than an hour, Xiaozhi and his friends arrived at Viridian City. Unlike Pallet Town which was a poor and remote place, this was a big city. Its economy ranked third in Kanto, second only to Aurelia City and Rainbow City in Kanto.
The students of Shinshin Academy take their exams at the Third Senior Academy in Tokiwa City. Although it is the third senior academy, its admission rate is the highest in Tokiwa City, and it produces at least ten A-level geniuses every year.
You should know that students with A grade only account for 1% of the candidates from all over the league. In previous years, there was not even a single one in Zhenxin Town, but this school can produce 10.
This shows how great this school is.
The three of them walked to the school gate and saw the posters posted at the gate.
“Look, the champion of Sinnoh, Ms. Takeran, and the champion of Hogen, Mr. Daigo, have both studied abroad at this school.”
Xiaolan said, pointing at the posters of Takeran and Daigo on the wall.
“What’s the big deal? My grandfather also graduated from here.”
Xiao Mao said casually.
Indeed, Professor Oak graduated from the Third Senior School in Tokiwa City, and chose to enter university after graduation. It is said that he also participated in the League Conference in college and even became a king.
But later, no one knew what happened, but he suddenly moved to Pallet Town and became a Pokémon researcher.
Chapter 12 Level Examination (Old Version)
Just as Xiaomao started to brag non-stop, Xiaozhi also came to the wall of honor posted at the Third High School in Tokiwa City.
This school is well-known in Kanto. Many superstars and champions graduated from here, so the wall of honor is full of celebrities from all over the league.
But what caught Xiaozhi’s eyes was that the poster in the middle did not show gorgeous photos like those of other champions and celebrities, but four plain backs, and underneath them was written: “What you lack is never hard work, but the courage to move forward.”
This made Xiaozhi curious, who are these four people posted in the center of the honor roll?
You should know that the Kanto region and the Johto region share a set of Four Heavenly Kings system, and now the champion has not been announced at all. The person who symbolizes the strongest strength in the Kanto region should be the Dragon Messenger, the head of the Four Heavenly Kings – Yuryuto.
But as everyone knows, Yulongdu has lived in the Dragon Cave with the Yulong clan since he was a child and has never been to school, so it is impossible that the person posted here is him.
Just as Xiaozhi was puzzled, another bus drove towards the Third High School in Tokiwa City.
This attracted the attention of Xiaozhi and the other two.
Likewise, there was a group of children from Zhenxin School, and there were many familiar faces among them.
One of the boys, wearing a black baseball cap, caught Xiaozhi’s attention.
This boy’s name is Masamune. He was a classmate of Satoshi in Elementary School. Even though Satoshi didn’t have much interaction with him, he still remembered him because his grades were excellent. Even Shigeki and Lan’s scores were not as good as his. Even though he was always surpassed by Satoshi, he was still one of the most talented students in Pallet School. Unfortunately, for some reason, he dropped out of school and went home after graduating from Elementary School.
Just like 8 years ago, this boy has a personality very similar to Xiaozhi and rarely communicates with others.
But the similarities are just similarities. Even if Xiaozhi is unwilling to approach others, he will not act like a stranger. He treats Xiaomao, Xiaolan and even his classmates very well. However, Zhengzong always acts like a stranger. Unlike Xiaozhi’s cold-outward-warmth personality, Zhengzong never takes the initiative to communicate with others and is always reluctant to answer when others talk to him. This made no one in school want to be friends with him at that time.
I didn’t expect to see you here today.
But soon, a silver-haired boy and a pink-dressed girl appeared beside Masamune, and the three of them quickly disappeared from Xiaozhi’s sight.
Xiaozhi shrugged indifferently. He didn’t know the other person well anyway, so what the other person did was none of his business.
Moreover, Xiaozhi also dislikes Zhengzong because his results have always been better than Zhengzong’s, so Zhengzong will look at Xiaozhi fiercely every time after the results are released, and will look at him all day long.
Soon, the time came to 7:45, and as the door of Tokiwa City Third High School opened, everyone headed towards their examination rooms.
“Attention, students. Please check your admission ticket and enter the examination room…”
The broadcast sounded throughout the school. Xiaozhi and the other two were in different examination rooms and soon separated.
The exam lasts three hours and there is a complete set of test papers. After finishing, you can go home and wait for the results.
Entering the exam, Xiaozhi finished the last question on the test paper in less than an hour.
I don’t know if it’s because the Padia region just recently joined the alliance or what, but this question is actually a question involving the Padia region that Xiaozhi has never seen before.
20. (15 points) Pokémon Hollywood plans to shoot several new movies and is now recruiting a group of actors. As an assistant director, you need to assist other directors in completing the following tasks.

C. The protagonist of the comedy “Little Chao in Charge”, “Little Chao” who battles wits and courage with the stupid thief who breaks into the house
D. The protagonist of the musical “The Sound of Dance”, “Miss Maria” who brings love and hope to everyone with her hot dance steps
This question was not only difficult, but also involved a very wide range of issues, which made Xiaozhi frown.
Just when Xiaozhi was about to come up with an idea, he heard a voice.
It was the sound of sobbing.
Xiaozhi stopped writing and looked back. Unexpectedly, it was this guy named Masamune who started crying in the examination room.
It seems that he has finished the last question, and his progress is similar to Xiaozhi. But when Zhengzong finished reading the question, he actually burst into tears.
Zhengzong is a man with an extremely strong self-esteem. Perhaps he chose to study abroad because he had always been outshined by Xiaozhi. Now, in the highest-level test, he encountered questions that he had no idea how to solve, which hurt his self-esteem.
Xiaozhi ignored the voice coming from the back row. In fact, this kind of scene is very common. If you take a wrong step in the level test, it will affect your entire future life. Therefore, every year there are cases of students crying during the level test.
Ten minutes later, Xiaozhi finished writing the last question, raised his hand to hand in the paper, and walked out of the examination room.
Except for Xiaozhi, Xiaomao and Xiaolan took the full three hours to finish the exam because the test was indeed not easy.
“It’s really difficult, especially the last question, which actually tested a completely new type of question.”
Xiaomao came to Xiaozhi and complained.
“That’s right. It’s not even included in the teaching materials. You can only rely on the basics.”
Xiaolan also echoed from the side, looked at Xiaozhi and asked again.
“How did Xiaozhi do on the test?”
“fine.”
Xiaozhi still looked calm and indifferent, as if it was none of his business.
“Stop talking nonsense. You probably can’t write it either. Your face is so dark. Don’t hide in your aunt’s arms and cry secretly when you go back.”
Seeing that Xiaozhi didn’t want to answer, Xiaomao mocked him.
“Next time you wet the bed, don’t wet it on the doctor.”
“you!”
..
The three of them played and fought like this, and took the bus back to Pallet Town again. In a corner where the three of them were at a loss, Zheng Zong and his two friends were looking at them from the left and right.
(Please vote and give me flowers. If you really want to, please add me to your collection. Thank you all!)
(If anyone can solve this problem, please leave a comment in the comment area. If more than 10 people can solve it, I will update it tomorrow.)
Chapter 13 Dual Qualifications (Old Version)
In the two months after the level test, Xiaozhi took Pikachu to Miyazaki Mountain every day to challenge various rock-type Pokémon, which made the originally fat Pikachu lose a lot of weight, which made Hanako very distressed.
“Mom, we’re back!”
Xiaozhi opened the door of his house, and it was still the same. He was covered in mud every day, and the Pikachu next to him was the same, with dust and signs of injuries all over his body. But this was also a good thing, which meant that they won today and did not lose to those wild Pokémon. In the first few days of training, Pikachu was still very weak, and the two were beaten so badly that they were at a loss. They ran to Professor Oak’s laboratory every day to heal Pikachu and then reflect.
Now Pikachu’s strength has reached the elite level, which makes Xiaozhi very pleased.
“Go take a shower.”
Hanako smiled and called over Satoshi and Pikachu to stir-fry the delicious food.
Soon, Xiaozhi and Pikachu came out of the shower, changed their clothes and had dinner, then went out again. This time their destination was Professor Oak’s Laboratory. There was no Pokémon Center in Pallet Town, so if they wanted to heal their wounds, they could only go to Professor Oak’s Laboratory, where there was the only healing device in Pallet Town.
Every day after finishing training, Xiaozhi would take Pikachu to treatment.
The man and the mouse soon arrived at Professor Oak’s laboratory. What surprised Xiaozhi was that Xiaolan and Xiaomao were also here. In the past two months, Xiaolan went to visit her parents, while Xiaomao went to travel to other places.
“How is it, Grandpa, I feel really good… Ah, Xiaozhi is here, come here quickly.”
Xiao Mao waved at Xiao Zhi and said.
Xiaozhi felt a little strange, but still walked over. Professor Oak picked up Pikachu as usual and handed it to his assistant, who then took Pikachu to the treatment room.
“What are you talking about?”
Xiaozhi asked doubtfully.
“Xiao Mao said that the University of Miare in Carlos has developed a dual-qualification training model.”
Xiaolan explained.
“Dual qualifications means you have to take a more difficult exam, which is much more difficult than the university entrance exam. If you pass the exam, you can keep your name in that school, but you don’t have to go to class. You can go out and travel. When you graduate, you will still be given a diploma, and you can also enjoy the resources provided by the university.”
Professor Oak was afraid that Xiaozhi didn’t understand, so he explained.
“I think it’s really great. Actually, I didn’t plan to go to college at first, but I think geniuses like us should try something this difficult!”
Xiao Mao said proudly.
Xiaozhi thought about it, nodded in the end, shook his head and said: “I think it’s pretty good, but it’s a bit far. If it’s a university in Kanto, I would consider it, but Carlos is too far.”
Xiao Lan also nodded. This was something she cared about, because she could only see her family a few times a year, and after going to Carlos, she would be even further away from her family.
Dr. Oak thought for a moment and said, “I’ll ask Dr. Bratano if he can let you travel back to Kanto. After all, this dual qualification was first offered by Miare University. I think you can really give it a try.”
Xiaozhi, Xiaomao and Xiaolan looked at each other and nodded to show their agreement.
Tomorrow is the day when the level test results will be announced, and the three of them will become official trainers tomorrow. It will take some time to get their own initial Pokémon, so Professor Oak has set the date for next month.
The next day, early in the morning, Xiaozhi and the other two sat in the classroom of Pallet New Academy for the last time. They sat in this classroom that held their 14 years of childhood and youth for the last time.
Professor Oak called out to the classmates who had studied with Satoshi, Shigeki, and Lan for 14 years one by one.
Even though he was definitely not familiar with most of his classmates, they had spent such a long time together, which made Xiaozhi feel a little emotional.
At this time, Xiaozhi remembered a song he heard in that world.
I just want to hold on to the passing years and say goodbye properly. No matter how regretful or grateful I am, I can’t go back to yesterday. I just want to remember this moment and the light years we have walked through together.
14 years of hard study and 14 years of shared experiences end today.
Everyone’s graduation season seems to be like this.
After getting his report card, Xiaozhi was not surprised to see the big A on it. Xiaomao and Xiaolan also got an A. In previous years, there were only a few A’s, but this year, Pallet Inn actually had three.
This made Shinshin Academy very famous in a short period of time, but it was soon suppressed by Professor Oak.
Because he understands that no matter how hyped it is now and how good the publicity is, the worse the school will suffer when next time no students get an A grade.
The greater the gap, the greater the disappointment.
After saying goodbye to his classmates, Professor Oak left behind Satoshi, Shigeki and Lan.
“Xiaozhi, I have prepared a very special Pokémon for you. You will definitely like it. Can you use it to replace your three starter Pokémon?”
Professor Oak said with some difficulty.
In fact, there are not three A grades in the database of Zhenxin Academy this time, but four. Although the student named Zhengzong has taken a leave of absence, his academic information has always been in Zhenxin Academy.
Masamune came early to take away his report card and the three starter Pokémon.
However, Professor Oak did not notice this and only applied for three of the three starter Pokémon, so now there are only two Poké Balls on the table.
Xiaozhi nodded. It didn’t matter to him whether he wanted the starter Pokémon or not, because he already had Pikachu as his starter Pokémon.
“Here are Bulbasaur and Squirtle. I spent a long time selecting them. They are both outstanding in terms of talent and potential among their peers.”
Obviously, Masamune took away Charmander, and the ones left here are Bulbasaur and Squirtle.
After the two negotiated, Xiaomao took Squirtle, while Xiaolan chose Bulbasaur. All three of them had their own initial Pokémon.
In the next month, Xiaolan and Xiaomao worked hard to improve their tacit understanding and cooperation with their original Pokémon under the guidance of Professor Oak. After all, Professor Oak is a former king, and he has been a lecturer for so many years, so his teaching ability is definitely no problem.
Xiaozhi continued to challenge the ferocious wild Pokémon on Mount Miyazaki again and again, but Pikachu’s level seemed to be stuck, remaining at the elite level, and no amount of training could break through.
It is worth mentioning that after Ash officially captured Pikachu, the system that he had almost forgotten finally issued a prompt sound for the first time in two years.
“Congratulations to the host for capturing the destined Pikachu, ladder points +1000”
Destined Pikachu
Name: Pikachu
Level: Elite
Skills: 100,000 volts, thunder, steel tail, lightning flash, electric ball, high-speed movement, electromagnetic levitation
Information: Pikachu has lived with Xiaozhi for a long time, which makes him trust Xiaozhi very much. He also trusts people who are close to Xiaozhi. He likes acidic food and is destined to meet Xiaozhi. When Xiaozhi was training, his talent and potential were infinite.
Chapter 14 Arrival at Miare City (Old Version)
“Why do you need to know about such an early flight? I really don’t understand you.”
Xiaozhi complained to Xiaolan and Xiaomao while yawning.
“It’s all Xiaomao’s fault. He insisted on sitting in first class. There are no first class tickets at other times. We can only sit at this time.”
Xiao Lan also looked at Xiao Mao speechlessly and said.
It is now 5:30 in the morning. Ash, Shinobi, and Blue have already arrived at the airport in Viridian City. Professor Oak has already contacted Professor Blatano and asked him to connect Ash and the other two with the University of Miare.
The three of them didn’t bring much luggage, just a backpack was enough, but they all wore Poké Ball belts around their waists, symbolizing their status as trainers.
Pikachu was sleeping soundly in Ash’s backpack.
I guess Blue and Mao’s Bulbasaur and Squirtle are also sleeping in the Poké Ball.
“What can I do? I really can’t get used to sitting in economy class…”
Even Xiao Mao said it embarrassedly, if the two of them hadn’t taken his feelings into consideration, they wouldn’t have set off so early.
“You are truly invincible.”
Xiaozhi complained.
You know, Pallet Town is just a small town. If they want to take a plane, they have to come to Viridian City first. In order to catch the 6 a.m. flight, Satoshi and his two friends got up at a little after 4 a.m.
Of the three, Satoshi, who loves to sleep in the most, is of course the one who can’t stand it the most, but after all, the plane ticket was bought by Professor Oak, and Satoshi, who has no travel expenses, has to endure it silently.
After a while, the three of them boarded the plane.
The journey of the three people is from Tokiwa City in Kanto region to Miare City in Kalos region. The estimated travel time is about 11-13 hours. There is a time difference between Kalos and Kanto region. Kanto time is about 8 hours faster than Kalos time. In other words, Xiaozhi and the other two should arrive in Kalos in the morning if nothing unexpected happens. After getting off the plane, they will probably be busy running around.
So the three of them didn’t do anything else during the plane journey, but instead took some sleep.
Pikachu was also very sensible and stayed by Ash’s side. When he was hungry, he even searched for yogurt and ketchup in Ash’s bag.
12 hours later…
The plane landed smoothly on the tarmac in Miare City. After Xiaozhi and the other two got off the plane, they looked around for Professor Blatano.
Among the crowd, Xiaozhi finally saw a missing person sign with the three big words “Pallet Town” written on it, and he pulled Xiaolan and Xiaomao and walked over.
The person holding the sign was a very young man in a white coat, who looked like a doctor.
“You must be the three children recommended by Professor Oak, hello, I’m Bratano, you can also call me Professor Fatong.”
Professor Blatano’s full name is Blatano Fatong. In the doctoral circle, Dr. Blatano is a younger junior who debuted later, so many seniors like Professor Oak call him by his full name, while most people call him by his surname to show respect for him, just like Professor Oak. As a veteran doctor, Xiaozhi has never seen anyone call Dr. Oak by his full name.
Xiaozhi and the other two began to look at the young man. He was a tall, middle-aged man with a recognizable stubble on his chin and flowing hair.
Dr. Buratano’s assistant took the luggage of the three people, and the three people followed Dr. Buratano out of the airport.
Walking out of the airport, Xiaozhi, Xiaomao and Xiaolan could not help but be shocked by the world’s largest city. It was luxurious and advanced. Xiaozhi felt that no words he knew could describe the prosperity of this city.
“Dr. Bratano, are you from Miare City?”
Xiao Mao asked Dr. Bratano.
“I’m not. My hometown is Chaoxiang Town, which is in the south of this city.”
Dr. Bratano said.
It is not easy to get a household registration in this city, considering that many people want to live in the world’s largest city.
Not to mention Pallet Town, compared to Viridian City, it’s the difference between a rich area and a slum.
“Don’t be surprised that this place is so prosperous. More than half of Kalos’ economy is in this city.”
Seeing little Lando looking around, Dr. Bratano continued.
Yes, in fact, the economy of Kalos is not much richer than that of Kanto, but unlike the Kanto region where flowers are blooming everywhere, the economy of Kalos spends more than half of its nutrients on one flower.
As a result, the tourism industry in Miare City is also very developed.
After all, who wouldn’t want to visit the world’s largest city?
Xiaozhi frowned and murmured in a low voice.
“Where did he say that just now? Chaoxiang Town? Why does it sound so familiar to me?”
Xiaozhi seemed to have heard of this place, but he couldn’t remember where he had heard it, which made Xiaozhi start trying hard to recall.
At this moment, everyone stopped and Xiaozhi’s thinking came to an end instantly.
When we arrived at our destination, Dr. Bratano’s Institute was right in front of us.
This is a very typical laboratory, much like a company in Tokiwa City in the Kanto region. It has an area of ??a building as a working area, and a large greenhouse connected to the back. This greenhouse was actually transformed from the woods outside the city of Miare, so it is very original.
Of course, the battle area is also indispensable. There are three battle venues in a glass house, and there is also a battle recorder outside the house.
Compared to the simplicity of Dr. Oki’s Laboratory, Dr. Blatano’s Laboratory appears more high-tech.
As Dr. Blatano fed the video inside, a woman appeared on the screen.
“It’s me, open the door.” Dr. Bratano said to the screen.
The institute does not have a key, and everyone entering or leaving needs internal approval.
Having assistants on duty 24 hours a day is the prerequisite for ensuring that the institute can operate in this way.
After a while, the door opened and a woman with blue hair and glasses walked in front of everyone.
“This is my assistant, Sophie.”
Dr. Bratano introduced to the three people.
After Sophie greeted everyone, she wanted to continue her work, but seemed to have thought of something and said to Dr. Blatano.
“Doctor, Mr. Fradali brought back two trainers today who seem to have great potential. Callum is battling him now.”
Dr. Bratano looked towards the battle area and through the glass, he could see that the fighting was indeed intense.
Callum is the nephew of Dr. Bratano. After the level test ended not long ago, Callum came to Dr. Bratano’s institute to get the initial three starter Pokémon, and has been living here ever since. As for the reason, of course, he also has to take the exam for Miare University.
(“Ding ding, a trainer on the ladder list has been detected, a trainer on the ladder list has been detected.”)
The system prompted Xiaozhi in his mind at this time.
Chapter 15: Battle at Dr. Blatano’s Institute (Old Version)
“You guys go up and choose a room first. See where you want to stay tonight.”
Dr. Bratano said enthusiastically.
“Don’t worry, isn’t there someone fighting over there? Let’s go over and take a look.”
Ash said to Dr. Blatano.
Xiaolan and Xiaomao also nodded. The three of them had no resistance to the battle between elves.
Dr. Bratano also smiled. Seeing that the three were so persistent, he took them to the battle area. As the glass door was opened, voices full of fighting desire were heard.
The one fighting is a man in a black jacket and jeans, with a blue scarf around his neck, the standard fashion of Kalos. The Charmeleon in front of him is majestic, and you can tell at a glance that he has extraordinary talent. His opponent is a boy in a blue jacket with sunglasses hanging on the brim of a red baseball cap and nice bangs. In front of him is Halili, who is fighting with a serious face. Halili is a first-stage Grass-attribute Pokémon from the Kalos starter Pokémon. Theoretically, the situation now should be one-sided with the second-stage Fire-attribute Charmeleon, but surprisingly, the current situation is that Halili has mastered the rhythm of the attack and is constantly attacking Charmeleon.
“Continuous rolling!”
“Dodge them all! Then use Jet Fire!”
What came into everyone’s view was the battle between Halili and Charmeleon.
As Halili rolled, Charmeleon jumped up to avoid it and sprayed flames at Halili, but surprisingly, Halili did not dodge or evade. The flames went straight to it, which had the grass attribute, but were removed as its whole body rotated. The high-speed spinning Halili was like a round stone.
The rolling trick is a rock-attribute skill whose power increases after continuous use. Halili uses the rock attribute’s resistance to the fire attribute to accomplish this operation.
The battle was almost coming to an end at this time, and the physical strength of both Charmeleon and Halili had reached its limit.
“Halili can’t win this round.”
Xiaozhi shook his head. Even though he could see that the battling level between this Halima and his trainer was very high and the level gap and attribute disadvantages were overcome in a very good way, it was a pity that the actual combat experience of Charmeleon was visibly stronger than Halima.
Just as Xiaozhi said, as Charmeleon exhaled a puff of foul air, heat began to linger all over his body.
The standard characteristic of the three starter Fire-attribute Pokémon is activated with Fierce Blaze, which greatly increases the power of Fire-attribute skills.
“Flames splash!”
Following Charmeleon’s command, a stream of extremely hot flames burst out of Charmeleon’s mouth, and Halili still tried to roll away the flames. But at this time, Halili’s trainer seemed to realize something and suddenly shouted, “Halili, run!”
Unfortunately, it was too late. The scorching flames did not hit Halili’s body, but hit the ground beside Halili. The scorching flames made the floor charred. Suddenly, at a strange moment for Halili, the flames split into small flames and entered from the side of Halili. It was not removed by the rolling at all, which made Halili feel pain and instantly break away from the rolling state.
“That’s it!”
A tall man with red hair and a lion head spoke.
“I lost.”
Callum walked up and touched Halili’s head and said.
“You are already very strong.”
Xiaozhi ignored Xiaolan’s obstruction and stepped forward to interrupt as if no one was around.
The trainer of Charmeleon next to him also stepped forward and echoed: “Yes, you are really strong to be able to cross levels and attributes to force us into this state!”
At this time, Dr. Bratano also came to the crowd and said, “Yes, although I didn’t watch it all, I can see that it was an exciting game.”
“These three are Xiaozhi, Xiaomao and Xiaolan from Pallet Town in Kanto. The trainer of this Haliri is my nephew Callum. These two are…”
Dr. Blatano looked at the Charmeleon trainer and the mushroom-headed green-haired trainer in the audience, then looked at the red-haired lion-headed man in the glass house who was processing battle data. The man also stood up, walked up to him and said.
“This Charmeleon’s trainer is Alan, and that one is Shota. They are very powerful trainers that I met at the Pokémon Center today.”
The man’s rough voice was very recognizable, and at this time Dr. Bratano also spoke up: “This man is Fradari, a consultant at our institute.”
Vladali nodded to Xiaozhi and the other two, and at this moment Xiaozhi’s mind was turned upside down.
(“Alan, the 30th ranked trainer on the ladder.”)
(“Shota, the 31st trainer on the ladder.”)
(“Callum, the 29th trainer on the ladder.”)
This couldn’t help but make Xiaozhi’s desire to fight begin to burn.
Seeing Xiaozhi’s murderous look, Dr. Blatano said at the right time: “In this case, Xiaozhi, do you want to have a battle with Shota?”
Shota is a boy with slightly dark skin, but holding a small notebook doesn’t seem to match his temperament, but strangely, it doesn’t feel out of place at all.
Shota also looked at Xiaozhi, closed his notebook, and a hint of determination appeared on his dark face.
“I am ready.”
This was Shota’s response to Satoshi’s gaze.
Xiaozhi did not answer, but greeted Pikachu who was munching on ketchup nearby. After putting the ketchup back into the bag, Pikachu immediately came to Xiaozhi’s side, and his eyes changed from cheerful to serious.
“Is it Pikachu? It’s so rare… Then it’s my partner!”
Shota threw the Poké Ball, and a green lizard appeared in front of everyone.
It’s a wood gecko!
“Shota is an exchange student from Fengyuan. He just received his initial Pokémon.”
Fradali explained to the crowd.
Seeing the two men ready to go, everyone came to the audience together, while Fradali and Dr. Bratano came in front of the battle recorder and were talking about something.
As the two arrived at the two ends of the battlefield, the battle began.
Chapter 16 Pikachu vs. Bimbisara (Old Version)
As Satoshi and Shota came to both sides of the battle field, Bimbisara and Pikachu also stood in the battle field.
“Pikachu actually has this side?”
Seeing Pikachu, who always laughed and joked around Xiaozhi, become serious, Xiaomao couldn’t help but mutter.
Xiaolan was very relieved because, unlike Xiaomao, when Xiaozhi and Pikachu went up the mountain to train, she would follow them if she was free.
Once, the scene where Pikachu was fighting with a giant Onix almost made Blue drop his jaw.
Can you imagine the scene? A rat and a rock snake the size of a house are fighting each other.
This was a lesson for Xiaolan, who was new and had rarely seen any battles.
“Now, a 1v1 Pokémon competition is going on between Satoshi from Pallet Town and Shota from Green Ridge City. The battle begins! Shota goes first!”
The referee is in place. This is a very formal match, and it is also the first time that Xiaozhi fights side by side with Pikachu on the battlefield.
Unlike the random battles against wild Pokémon, regular battles are generally divided into 1V1, 2V2, 3V3, 4V4, 5V5, and 6V6. Before each game starts, the referee will guess who will go first, which is simply a coin toss to decide which side will attack first. The first-attacking side can have priority in the first attack in the game, but must send out Pokémon first. The second-attacking side needs to withstand the opponent’s attack, but can send out its own Pokémon according to the opponent’s Pokémon. 4V4 and 6V6 are divided into the first half and the second half. If one side attacks first in the first half, the other side will have the turn in the second half. It seems very fair, but in fact, in Xiaozhi’s opinion, the first-attacking side has a greater advantage, after all, it can control the rhythm of the attack.
In this novice 1V1 battle with only one Pokémon, the party attacking later is at a great disadvantage.
“Wood Gecko, use the slap attack!”
Shouta opened his notebook again and looked at it, then ordered.
Bimbiscus immediately sprang into action, using its super-fast speed to attack Pikachu.
“So fast!” Everyone in the audience couldn’t help but exclaim. The speed of this wood gecko was simply terrifying.
Generally speaking, it’s difficult to dodge a fast attack from a fast-attack Pokémon like Bimbo, but Pikachu’s speed is no joke.
“Get out of the way, then use Lightning Flash.”
Xiaozhi also gave the order immediately.
As white light emerged from Pikachu’s body, it easily dodged Bokeh’s attack with a flash of lightning, and Xiaozhi immediately launched a counterattack.
(“With a tail of steel.”)
Xiaozhi didn’t say anything, but the voice did appear in Pikachu’s mind.
This is Ash’s power of wave. It takes time for ordinary trainers to react and give orders, but Ash can use the power of wave to give orders instantly without missing any opportunity. Moreover, his silent command will make it difficult for trainers fighting against him to react.
With the silent and swift command, Xiaozhi was able to fight back and forth with those powerful rock-attribute Pokémon on Mount Miyazaki.
But in fact, Xiaozhi seldom uses this move, because it consumes too much physical energy of the trainer himself. Xiaozhi can only silently command two battles at present.
As Pikachu’s tail hardened quickly, it smashed towards the Gecko.
“What?”
Because Xiaozhi did not give any orders and Pikachu’s movements were very quick, not only Shota but even Bokeh were unable to react to this attack.
As the iron tail hit the woodpecker in the face, Shota reacted immediately and launched a counterattack.
“Use one more slap!”
“Get out of the way!”
It was as if the scene that had just happened was reappearing, and Carnotaurus’s attack missed again, but the difference from the last time was that this time many leaves appeared beside Carnotaurus and attacked Pikachu.
“Use the slap to force Pikachu to dodge, and then immediately use the leaves to counterattack. It’s a textbook attack.”
Dr. Bratano spoke up.
The leaf hit Pikachu right in the middle, making the battle intense.
If Satoshi uses his abilities and fighting talents to control the battle, then Shota uses standard fighting techniques to win.
“A flash of lightning!”
Xiaozhi ordered again.
Pikachu quickly responded again, but Ash couldn’t help but frown slightly when he saw an extra seed under Pikachu’s feet.
The seed gradually grew branches, pulling Pikachu who wanted to move.
“Pica?”
“It’s a parasitic seed! When was it released?”
Xiao Mao said in shock in the audience.
Why didn’t the tree gecko use leaves to attack when it launched its first attack? The answer is of course that it released another move – Parasitic Seed.
Parasitic Seed can absorb the opponent’s physical strength and control it. It is a very powerful Grass-attribute move.
In the audience, Alan and Callum were having a conversation.
“Who do you think will win?”
Callum asked Alan who was beside him.
“There’s no hope for Pikachu to win at this point.”
Ailan answered matter-of-factly.
On the competition field, Shota closed his notebook and shouted, “It’s over! Super absorption!”
In the parasitic state, absorption-type moves will be improved, and this battle is completely under Shota’s control.
Pikachu, trapped by the seeds, is now struggling hard. How can he have any chance of escaping?
“Use electric ball on the ground.”
Xiaozhi was not at all flustered, and there was no emotion on his face. He just gave the order.
Pikachu also moved instantly, and electricity began to condense on its tail, gathering into a ball of electricity, which smashed towards the ground, causing dust to be raised.
When everyone thought that Pikachu was hit head-on by Super Absorb, the smoke dissipated and only Woodpecker was left on the battlefield.
“Where did it go?”
Shota and Bimbisara immediately looked around, but there was no sign of Pikachu.
“Here! Use Iron Tail!”
Following Xiaozhi’s order, Pikachu dropped from the sky and used its hardened tail to knock Bikololi away again.
It turned out that Pikachu had just relied on the explosion waves of the electric ball to not only break the shackles of the parasitic seed, but also send himself into the sky.
Then, while Kiba and Shota have no view of the sky, they attack.
“Now it’s really over! One hundred thousand volts!”
Golden lightning spears burst out from Pikachu’s body and attacked Bokeh.
After 100,000 volts, the wounded Bimbisara and the panting Pikachu confronted each other again.
Shota said to the referee.
“Since Shota has admitted defeat, the winner of this match is Satoshi from Pallet Town!”
The referee announced immediately.
“Why are you admitting defeat? Bimbo can still fight, and Pikachu doesn’t have much energy left. He can definitely give it one more try!”
Ai Lan immediately ran to the competition field and asked Shota in confusion.
Shota said, “With this Pikachu’s level, he should have already learned a thunder attack that is more powerful than 100,000 volts. When Xiaozhi chose to use 100,000 volts, I had already lost.”

Chapter 17: Chaoxiang Town (Old Version)
“So that’s how it is.” Ai Lan thought about it and finally nodded.
Thunder is a powerful but difficult to hit move, but in the scenario just now, Bimbisara didn’t even know where Pikachu was, so how could it avoid it?
“Student Ai Lan, your combat talent is indeed very high, but your understanding of combat and elves is actually quite poor.”
“Take the previous battle for example. You didn’t know enough about rolling moves and Pokémon like Haril, so that’s why you ended up like that. Theoretically, with your strength, you shouldn’t have ended up like this.”
Dr. Bratano came forward and said, while Fradali was processing combat data.
Ai Lan looked up at Dr. Bratano and asked, “Dr. Fatong, what should I do?”
Ailan used a respectful title here, indicating that she was very eager to get Dr. Bratano’s guidance.
“Our research institute is still in need of assistants. If you want to stay, I welcome you.”
After considering for a while, Ai Lan finally agreed to Dr. Bratano’s suggestion and stayed in the institute to become an assistant, learning about the elves while undergoing special combat training.
It is worth mentioning that Shota also decided to become an assistant in the research institute. Originally he loved studying Pokémon, and after losing to Satoshi, he thought he should concentrate on studying.
Within two days, the three people from Pallet Town and the three people from the research institute quickly became familiar with each other, but what made Xiaozhi feel strange was that the one called Vladali was always sitting in front of the computer desk watching the two battles of that day, playing them back and forth.
But seeing that Dr. Blatano didn’t say anything, Xiaozhi didn’t dare to ask.
The university’s dual qualification exam is next week, and there are still 5 days before the exam. After Xiaozhi and his friends spent three days in Miare City, they quickly became familiar with the city.
“How is it? Miare City is very prosperous, much more prosperous than where I live.”
Callum took a sip of water and said to the three of them.
As if he had thought of something, he spoke again: “I’m going home tomorrow, do you want to go with me?”
“Your home? Where is it?”
Xiao Lan asked.
“Chaoxiang Town, not far away.”
Callum replied, and the three immediately fell into thought and said.
“I want to go shopping tomorrow, but I won’t.”
Xiaolan spoke again.
“Me too. I want to go to the gym here tomorrow.”
Xiao Mao replied embarrassedly.
Shota and Alan have to assist Dr. Bratano with his research, so they can’t leave.
“I’ll go take a look.”
Xiaozhi finally said when he saw that no one agreed with Callum’s words.
It’s not that Xiaozhi wanted to give Callum a favor, but Xiaozhi really liked the customs and culture of the town. After living in Miare City for two days, it felt like he hadn’t breathed fresh air for a long time.
“good.”
Callum put his hand on Ash’s shoulder and smiled.
“Our little Zhijun is really good at knowing what to do. Let me introduce you to my friends. There are two beautiful girls.”
“What? Then I want to go too!”
When Xiao Mao heard this, he instantly became energetic and said something that came out of nowhere.
When Xiao Lan heard that there was a girl, he felt a little upset, but he didn’t say anything.
Xiao Lan seemed to suddenly remember something, and a person came to her mind, a girl she had met two years ago.
It shouldn’t be such a coincidence.
The next day, Callum took Xiaozhi out of the southern exit of Miare City and slowly walked towards Xiang Town.
Between Miare City and Chaoxiang Town, there is a place called Mingshui Town. Xiaozhi and Callum did not stay for long. They had lunch in Mingshui Town and continued walking towards Chaoxiang Town.
They set out in the morning, and after a 4-hour journey, Callum and Xiaozhi arrived at Chaoxiang Town.
This is a quaint town, smaller than the Pallet Town, but very exquisite.
As we entered the town, we were greeted by the strong fragrance of flowers. Xiaozhi looked around and saw that Chaoxiang Town was surrounded by various kinds of flowers, which were very elegant and beautiful.
“These flowers were planted by everyone in the town, because everyone hopes that Chaoxiang Town will be a town full of vitality and flowers.”
Callum gently stroked a flower, and these words seemed to remind Xiaozhi of his hometown, Pallet Town.
It seems to be the same as here, just as pure, just as simple.
But the difference is that Pallet Town is full of the spirit of beginnings, with countless trainers walking out of it, while Asaka Town is full of elegance, but both reveal a simple beauty that makes people feel comfortable.
They soon arrived at Callum’s house, and when Callum opened the door and invited Xiaozhi to come in, Xiaozhi noticed the desertedness of the house.
There was no one in the house, but the interior was very clean and tidy, and you could tell at a glance that someone came to clean it regularly.
“Where are your family members?”
Xiaozhi asked Callum as he took off his shoes.
Callum didn’t say anything, and Xiaozhi was the first to notice that the atmosphere was wrong.
a long time…
Callum spoke up: “They died not long ago.”
“Feel sorry.”
Xiaozhi said, indicating that he meant no offense.
“It’s okay. The only person who is related to me by blood now is Dr. Bratano. He is my mother’s brother and my uncle.”
“My parents were both very powerful trainers before, but they died in an accident after my level test. They were so expecting me to get a good result, but they passed away before my result was even announced. I remember that I didn’t go out for a long time at that time, and I didn’t get back on track until I got the Hari Chestnut recently.”
Callum turned back to look at Xiaozhi and smiled bitterly.
Xiaozhi, who had tragic experiences in his previous life, can understand Callum’s feelings very well. People are always like this. No matter how painful it is when they encounter darkness, there will always be a day when they can talk about it with a smile after it passes. It’s not that he has let it go, but that it has been too long.
“well..”
Xiaozhi sighed and patted Callum’s shoulder without saying any words of comfort. Xiaozhi knew that no matter what he said, it would be useless because the pain would not disappear because of someone else’s words.
Callum picked up some things from the cupboard and handed them to Xiaozhi, indicating that this was dinner. Xiaozhi didn’t care whether the things were simple or not, as long as they could fill his stomach, it was a good thing for Xiaozhi.
At this time, Pikachu pulled on Xiaozhi’s trouser leg.
“Pika Pika…” (Xiaozhi, go buy some ketchup or yogurt, I’ve finished eating…)
“You’ve eaten too much!”
Xiaozhi grabbed the bag of ketchup, which was now empty, and there were only 20 bags of ketchup left by Pikachu and 20 empty yogurt cartons in the bag.
Xiaozhi looked at Pikachu speechlessly. This was Kalos, where could he get yogurt for Pikachu?
“Just eat the elf food obediently tonight and be patient.”
Looking at Xiaozhi’s determined attitude, Pikachu’s ears drooped, which made Callum and Halili laugh out loud.
“Xiaozhi, I’m going to take a shower first. Go to bed early today. I’ll take you to meet my friends tomorrow. I came back this time to let Halili meet them.”
Callum said as he stood up and walked towards the bathroom.
(One more chapter, there may be only two chapters tomorrow. If there are more flowers and subscriptions, I will add more chapters brothers)
Chapter 18 It Should Not Be Him (Old Version)
“Boom boom boom.”
Just as Callum entered the bathroom to take a shower, there was a knock on the door.
“Xiaozhi! Please help me open the door.”
Callum’s voice came from the bathroom.
Xiaozhi stood up and walked straight to the entrance.
As the door opened, a petite girl in pink clothes appeared in front of Xiaozhi. The twin ponytails on her head were very cute. If you had to say anything wrong with the girl, it would be that her skin was a bit wheat-colored, but she looked very healthy.
“Oh, who are you?”
The girl asked in surprise when she saw Xiaozhi, a man she didn’t recognize.
Xiaozhi looked the girl over and introduced himself, “I’m Xiaozhi, Callum’s friend.”
Only then did the girl feel relieved and introduced herself: “My name is Shana, I’m Callum’s childhood sweetheart, hello.”
Shana also looked at Xiaozhi and felt a little strange.
She had always thought that Callum was traveling, but she would come to Callum’s house every week to clean. But today, when she saw the lights on, she realized that Callum might have returned, and she came to knock on the door without even going home to get his stuff.
Until I saw Xiaozhi in front of me.
The two walked to the hall together and sat there awkwardly until Callum came out of the bathroom and broke the silence between them.
“Brother, why didn’t you tell me you were coming back?”
After Shana saw Callum, she immediately said resentfully.
“We just arrived too. This is my friend, Xiaozhi from Kanto, and that’s his partner Pikachu.”
Callum replied as he wiped his hair.
Shana looked in the direction Callum’s finger pointed, and what she saw was not Ash, but the Pikachu on his shoulder.
“Pikachu, eh? I remember that sister Sese’s friend in Kanto also has a Pikachu. She used to talk about it often.”
Shana muttered quietly.
“Yes, she did. By the way, Shana, can you help me get everyone together tomorrow? I’m going to take the dual qualification exams. I probably won’t come back after the exams and will go traveling directly. I guess it will be difficult for me to see everyone in the future.”
Callum said this to Shana, and told Shana the purpose of her return.
“Ah…Okay, by the way, Sister Sese is back too. She was admitted to the Rainbow University in Kanto to study acting. She will probably leave in two months.”
“Really? Tierno and Doroba are both planning to go to Kanto for development. Luckily I’m back this time. I’ll see them tomorrow…”
Shana chatted with Callum about the current situation of their mutual friend, while Xiaozhi left the living room and went to his room to rest.
Xiaozhi returned to the room, took out all the leftover ketchup garbage and empty yogurt boxes of Pikachu from his backpack and threw them away. Then he tidied his own backpack, looked at Pikachu who was still autistic because he had no ketchup and yogurt to eat, and sighed.
“I understand. I’ll buy it for you when we get back to Miare City. Please stop being like this, okay?”
“Pika!! (Really? Great!)”
Pikachu instantly perked up, came to Xiaozhi’s side, rubbed Xiaozhi’s arm and acted coquettishly.
————————
Xiaozhi didn’t know how long Callum and Shana talked, but after he packed his backpack, he took a shower and went straight to bed, and slept until the next morning.
It is worth mentioning that Xiaozhi was woken up by Callum because Xiaozhi slept for too long…
“Xiaozhi, you really can sleep well…”
Callum said as he shared the breakfast that Shana brought with Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi scratched his head and took the breakfast while yawning.
“My friends are coming to my house later. They seem to be developing in Kanto in the future. Can you get to know them and help me take care of them in the future?”
Callum asked Xiaozhi for help.
Xiaozhi nodded. Even though he didn’t like making friends with others, since it was Callum’s request, Xiaozhi agreed.
Xiaozhi doesn’t have many friends, and Callum is one of them. As for his friends, Xiaozhi basically helps them whenever he can.
“Is there a store or supermarket in your town? I’ll go buy some ketchup for Pikachu.”
Xiaozhi looked at the time. It was only 10 o’clock in the morning. Xiaozhi wanted to buy some ketchup for Pikachu first, otherwise Pikachu would get angry again.
“Yes, you can go to the store at the entrance of town to see if they have any. I usually buy berries there. It’s about ten minutes away.”
Callum pointed in the direction of the grocery store, and Ash nodded, picked up Pikachu, and walked out of Callum’s house.
On the way, Xiaozhi and Pikachu followed the road to the grocery store pointed by Callum, but on the way, Xiaozhi saw a familiar person, that was the girl he met at Callum’s house yesterday – Shana.
There were three people next to Shana, they should be her friends. Shana was chattering among them, very energetic, and the three of them looked at her as if she were their own sister, very doting.
The four of them walked towards Callum’s house. Because they were a group of people, they didn’t see Xiaozhi passing by. Xiaozhi was too lazy to say hello to him because he and Shana were not very familiar with each other.
Another girl among Shana and the other four seemed to sense something the moment she passed by Xiaozhi. She stopped and turned to look at Xiaozhi, but as Xiaozhi walked farther and farther away, she finally shook her head.
“Serena, what’s wrong with you?”
One of the boys asked Serena.
“It’s okay. I met someone who looked like my friend, but probably not.”
Serena responded.
Shana seemed to have thought of something at this time, and said, “My brother brought back a friend of his, who is also from Kanto, and also brought a Pikachu.”
“That shouldn’t be him. After all, we haven’t been in touch for a long time.”
In fact, after the summer camp, Serena and Xiaozhi still had contact for a while, but later, as the level test was approaching, Serena’s preparation pressure became greater and greater, so she reduced her contact with Xiaozhi. As time passed, the two have not been in contact for a long time.
“Oh, Serena, there is no boy like you. You are a student at Rainbow University, you got A grades in the exams, and you are beautiful. Why do you want to hang yourself on a tree?”
Another shorter boy said.
The shorter boy is called Doraba, and the fatter boy is Tierno. Together with Shana Callum and Serena, they grew up together in Chaoxiang Town and know each other very well.
Serena, who is very beautiful, has never lacked boys pursuing her since she was a child, but Serena has always adhered to the principle of rejection. Until that time Serena came back from summer camp, she seemed like a different person.
She changed her original goal of studying at Miare University to Rainbow University in Kanto, all for the boy she met at the summer camp.
In order to take care of Serena, Tierno and Doraba chose to go to Kanto, but due to poor grades, they failed to be admitted to the first Rainbow University in Kanto, and were admitted to the second Golden University in Kanto.
With the recommendation of the two, Shana also prepared to go there to take the exam, while Callum, who had the best results among the few, chose the dual qualification exam of Miare University.
Chapter 19 Um…Are you Xiaozhi? (Old version)
There was another knock on Callum’s door, and this time it was Callum instead of Xiaozhi who opened the door.
Shana, who was at the door, immediately hugged Callum energetically after he opened the door.
“Brother, we are here!”
Shana is the youngest among them, and Callum is the oldest, so Shana has always regarded Callum as her brother since she was a child.
Yesterday, Xiaozhi was present and she was embarrassed to do anything too intimate, but today she didn’t care and went up to hug Callum.
And Callum touched Shana’s head helplessly and greeted a few people.
When they all came to the living room, Shana realized something was wrong.
“Brother, where is your friend? Has he gone back yet?”
Shanna asked.
“He went to the grocery store next door to buy some food. His elf was too greedy.”
Callum smiled and replied.
After saying that, Callum seemed to have thought of something. He took off his Poké Ball and released his Pokémon Halili.
“By the way, this is my partner, Halili, come and say hello to everyone.”
“Harry~”
Halili stretched out his hand and greeted everyone.
“Oh, I’m so envious of you for being able to get the three starter Pokémon. Our grades are only B, and it will take a few days to get an Pokémon of unknown type…” Tieruno shook his head and said.
The Pokémons obtained by those who got B grade in the level test were distributed uniformly by the alliance. To put it bluntly, it all depended on luck, and the time when the Pokémons were obtained was relatively late. Among the few people, only Serena and Callum got A grade in the level test.
It is worth mentioning that Serena got the A grade by relying on the artistic score of her performance, and only Callum was admitted based on his own strength.
The educational resources in the southern part of Carlos are relatively poor, which has led to Serena and Callum becoming the only two people in Mingshui Town and Chaoxiang Town who have achieved A grade in the level exams in the past ten years.
As they were chatting, Xiaozhi soon came back with Pikachu munching on ketchup. Seeing that they were chatting animatedly, Xiaozhi greeted them and then sat on the sofa.
At this moment, there was a person whose eyes had never left Xiaozhi’s face since he entered the room, and that person was of course Serena.
At this time, Serena was not wearing a straw hat, but a neat ponytail. Her hard study life made Serena develop the habit of tying her hair.
Compared to when Xiaozhi met her two years ago, she has a stronger temperament and her shyness has been replaced by confidence. This is her growth and huge change in the past two years. (Compared with the personality of long-haired and short-haired Serena in the original work)
But if you look closely you can still see it, but at this time Xiaozhi doesn’t seem to intend to look at them, and gently strokes Pikachu’s back.
“This is my friend from Pallet Town…”
“Um…are you Xiaozhi?”
Serena asked, interrupting Callum who was about to introduce himself, and instead stood up.
At this moment, Xiaozhi felt a little strange. Theoretically, no one in Kalos should recognize him, but what was the situation now?
Xiaozhi raised his head and studied Serena’s face.
It was a very beautiful face, with golden brown hair tied in a standard ponytail. It was very pure and cute but without a trace of childishness. The blue pupils added a bit of charm to it.
Unfortunately, Xiaozhi did not make the connection between the confident girl in front of him and the shy girl from two years ago.
“I am…”
“Wait a moment.”
Serena was a little dissatisfied and just wanted to introduce herself, but was stopped by Xiaozhi, who seemed to insist that she guess it herself.
But for a long time, Xiaozhi kept looking at Serena’s beautiful face and still couldn’t give an answer.
“Didn’t you agree not to forget me?”
Serena reminded.
At this moment, a memory emerged in Xiaozhi’s mind.
“Xiaozhi! You must never forget me in the future!”
“How could I forget? We will meet again anyway, right?”
“Yes, we will definitely see each other again.”
The face in Xiaozhi’s memory gradually began to overlap with the face in front of him. It was equally beautiful and cute, but with more confidence and unrestrainedness.
“You’re…Serena!”
Xiaozhi slapped his head, and Pikachu had already recognized Serena and was greeting her by calling “Pika Pika” in Xiaozhi’s arms.
“That’s right, Pikachu. Long time no see. How are you guys doing?”
Serena said happily as she rubbed Pikachu’s back.
“Serena, Xiaozhi, do you know each other?”
Callum asked in surprise at this time, and everyone else around him was also very surprised.
Serena took the opportunity to sit next to Xiaozhi and said, “He’s the boy with the Pikachu that I told you about at summer camp.”
At this time everyone realized that the guy that Serena had always been thinking about and even wanted to go to Kanto to study was the Satoshi in front of them.
After learning what happened, everyone started to talk about it. Serena was admitted to the best university in Kanto – Rainbow University, while Dorobatierno and Sana were admitted to Golden University in Kanto. The four of them hoped to go to the same place together so that they could take care of each other.
Callum decided to go on a trip, thinking of getting dual qualifications from the University of Miare. He could then come back and ask everyone which university they went to, and then he would travel to that place.
Xiaozhi asked without any emotional intelligence: “Um… why did you come to Kanto to look for me? Obviously, your grades can get you into a better university.”
When Serena heard what Xiaozhi said, her face instantly turned red, and everyone looked at each other. They didn’t expect that there would be such an unromantic person in the world.
Callum quickly tried to smooth things over, “Serena actually wants to travel, but she doesn’t dare to travel alone. But she doesn’t want to go with me, and there aren’t any friends around who are going on a trip, so she wanted to travel with you. Is that okay?”
“Yes, yes, that’s it.” Serena quietly gave Callum a thumbs up and continued, “Then I can go to Rainbow University to retain my student status, and then we can travel together, okay?”
Xiaozhi thought about it and this seemed to be a good decision. As for why Serena didn’t want to travel with Callum, if it was him, he probably wouldn’t want to travel with Xiaomao and Xiaolan either, because they had lived together since childhood, and if they still traveled together it would indeed miss out on a lot of fun.
“That’s fine with me, but if you want to travel with me, you may have to go back to Pallet Town with me, and you have to wait until I finish my exams. If you agree, I can introduce you.”
After Serena nodded to indicate that she had no problem, everyone immediately changed the subject.
“By the way, this is my initial Pokémon, Fire Fox.”
When Serena saw Pikachu and Haliri fighting, she also threw out her own Poké Ball.
A yellow and red fox appeared. Its fur was very delicate and it was obviously groomed every day. This made Xiaozhi’s impression of Serena increase significantly.
Xiaozhi is like this. When he sees others being nice to Pokémon, he will naturally think that this person is not a bad person.
It is worth mentioning that as soon as Firefox came out, Haliri was almost driven into a daze. He did not play with Pikachu, but stayed beside Firefox, combing its already beautiful fur with the hard hair on his hands.
Pikachu couldn’t help feeling a little embarrassed, and began to talk to himself: “Pika Pika…” (I don’t want to be a bootlicker in the future… These two idiots have been fascinated by the second brother…)
An hour later, Serena and the others left Callum’s house.
“Sister Sese, although this guy looks handsome, he seems to be a fool.”
Shana said to Serena.
“It’s true that my emotional intelligence is a bit low.”
Doraba also echoed.
Serena let out a long sigh, thinking that all the good impression she had once created for Xiaozhi in the eyes of her good friends was gone.
But she felt inexplicably a little happy in her heart, because she could travel with Xiaozhi in the future, which made Serena very happy.

Chapter 20: Mother-Daughter Conversation (Old Version)
“I said…”
Callum looked helplessly at the girl in front of him who was following the two of them to Miare City, and said slowly.
“You don’t have to go to Miare City with us. We don’t know how long the dual qualification exam will take. You can just stay in Chaoxiang Town and rest for a while.”
That’s right, after staying in Chaoxiang Town for a few days, Xiaozhi and Callum prepared to return to Miare City.
Because the dual qualification exam was tomorrow, the two of them left in a hurry, but they were discovered by Serena when they were leaving the town. The little girl insisted on going to Miare City with them.
“Hey, I want to watch Satoshi take the test too… and Miare City isn’t far from Asaka Town, right, Satoshi?”
Serena smiled and looked over to Ash who was rummaging through his backpack, pulling out another bag of ketchup and handing it to Pikachu.
“Ah… that’s true, but Serena, does your mother know that you’re going with us?”
Xiaozhi heard Serena calling him and immediately came to his senses.
He was just looking at the system, because the 1,000 points obtained from capturing Pikachu and the 400 points obtained from defeating Shota were enough to buy a lot of things in the mall.
Callum finally reacted at this point and said, “Yes, Aunt Saki knows that you left with us.”
But Serena felt a little embarrassed when she heard this.
“Of course I agree…”
last night.
“Um…Mom, how was your recent Iron Rhino riding competition?”
Serena said hesitantly as she sat down next to Saki.
“It’s been pretty good the last few times, but it’s a pity there are no competitions this month. By the way, where’s Firefox? You didn’t bring her down with you today.”
Saki noticed that something was wrong with her daughter and asked in confusion.
“Oh, I want to talk to my mother alone…”
Serena said shyly.
Next, Serena talked about this and that for a long time, all of which were irrelevant topics. She still couldn’t make up her mind to tell her mother that she wanted to drop out of school and go traveling. But Serena was facing the mother who had raised her for eighteen years. How could she not notice that something was wrong with Serena?
At this time, Saki was sure that her daughter definitely had a problem, and she also wanted to tease her daughter who hadn’t been intimate with her for a long time, so she said playfully: “Serena, are you really just talking to me about these boring topics?”
“Of course! What else could there be!”
Serena stammered. After all, she was only an eighteen-year-old girl and couldn’t keep her composure. She immediately panicked when she heard what Saki said.
“Well, I’m going to take a shower and go to bed. If you don’t want to watch TV, just turn it off.”
Saki pretended to stand up and go to the bathroom, but Serena got anxious and quickly stopped her.
“Wait! Mom, I…I don’t want to go to college anymore! I want to travel to Kanto!”
Serena said unsurely.
“I knew it would be like this. Why? Can you give me a reason?”
Seeing that her daughter finally told the truth, Saki asked calmly without getting angry.
“Mom, haven’t you always been curious about why I became a different person since that summer camp? Actually, I met a boy at the summer camp…”
So, Serena told her mother the whole process of her meeting with Xiaozhi.
“I see. So you want to travel with that boy?”
After a long time, Saki, Serena’s mother, asked Serena with a smile on her face.
Serena nodded, her face no longer had the usual confidence, replaced by shyness, and her hands were tightly grasping the corners of her clothes, fearing that her mother would not agree.
If Xiaozhi was there, he would definitely exclaim, this is the real Serena, exactly the same as when he met her two years ago.
Many people are like this. They are very strong, brave, confident and bold in front of outsiders, but they always show their most vulnerable side in front of their closest people.
In fact, two years ago, when Serena came back from summer camp, Saki noticed that something was wrong with her daughter. Her daughter became very motivated and seemed to have a deep obsession with the Kanto region. Originally, Saki wanted Serena to inherit her mantle as an Armored Rhino player. Serena had been receiving training since she was a child. Until that summer camp, Serena came back and told Saki that she wanted to apply to Golden University. From then on, the daughter who had an uncertain goal and was hesitant seemed to have changed and become determined. Her grades also improved, and she actually became one of the two top scorers in Asaka Town.
In fact, Saki is also from Kanto, but she also married to Kalos for Serena’s father. But now she doesn’t even know where her husband is.
When Saki saw Serena, she seemed to see her past self.
I saw myself who was able to marry far away for love.
“Here’s the thing. I met him yesterday. He’s Callum’s friend. It’s a coincidence that this is the second time we meet.”
Serena seemed afraid that her mother would disagree, so she explained further.
Seeing her daughter like this, Saki couldn’t help but laugh out loud. It seemed that Saki hadn’t seen this look for a long time.
“Okay, okay, I promise you. You’ve already made the decision for so long, it’s probably useless for me to stop you, just go ahead.”
Saki waved her hands, as if she saw her daughter’s determination, and as if she saw her past self, and finally agreed.
“real!?”
Serena didn’t expect her mother to agree so easily, and her eyes were full of surprise.
“But you have to take good care of yourself. If you encounter any problems, you should consult Miss Junsha when your mother is not around.”
“Okay, got it!”
When Serena learned that her mother had agreed, she agreed repeatedly, as if she didn’t even hear what Saki said afterwards.
This scene made Saki sigh, and when she saw her daughter going upstairs, she muttered to herself.
“It seems like you have really grown up.”
Although she caught up with Satoshi and Xiaozhi, Serena was a little confused about what she should do in the future if she didn’t go to school and followed Satoshi?
Xiaozhi told Serena that he would challenge gyms in Kanto and participate in the league conference in the future, so what about himself?
Serena knew that she didn’t want to be a trainer at all, and she was also an art student, so her knowledge of Pokémon was not solid enough.
What will my future path be like?
Walking on the road, Serena looked at Ash and Callum who were exchanging their experiences in Pokémon battles, and she felt even more confused.
Originally, Serena thought about going to find Xiaozhi after she was admitted to university, but now she wants to travel with Xiaozhi, so what should she do?
(Brothers, if the monthly ticket data is good, there will be more tonight)
Chapter 21: Use all your means to defeat me (old version)
“Xiaozhi! Come on!”
Serena and Dr. Blatano stood in the audience and shouted encouragement to Satoshi and the others below.
This is the highest arena in Kalos and the venue for the Miare Conference – the Miare Arena.
The various advanced instruments and the battlefield that looks like a loft in the sky demonstrate the prosperity of the city of Miare and also reflect the importance that Miare University attaches to this dual qualification examination.
There were a total of twenty people taking the exam, all of them were geniuses from their hometown.
Today they gather here to fight for a common goal.
In the center of the battle field, a mature man in armor was lifted up by a floating disk.
There seemed to be a special kind of aura about the man, a unique aura of a soldier. One could tell at a glance that he had crawled out of a battlefield.
(“Ding ding, a powerful trainer has been detected, Yan Kai, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Kalos. Defeat him to get 3000 points.”)
The system prompt sounded, which made Xiaozhi frown.
They actually invited the Four Heavenly Kings?
The Four Heavenly Kings are the four most powerful people in the league below the champion. They possess powerful strength and are selected through the Heavenly King Challenge every year.
The moment Yan Kai appeared, the air seemed to become a little colder.
“Hello everyone, I am Yan Kai, the Steel King of Carlos, and I am your examiner today.”
After Yan Kai said this, many candidates couldn’t help but groan inwardly.
Yan Kai was once a soldier, a strong soldier, an upright soldier. The questions asked by this kind of person are generally not simple.
The hoverboard under everyone’s feet slowly floated up and surrounded Yan Kai.
“Now I want to ask you a question. What do you think is the biggest difference between trainers who graduate from universities and trainers who set out on a journey?”
Yan Kai slowly spit out his test questions and asked everyone.
This also made all the geniuses present fall into deep thought. At this time, a candidate with a pale face who could be recognized by everyone at a glance stood up and said, “I think it should be the ability to take care of oneself. In terms of life, there are very few things in college that you really need to worry about. Most of them are fully taken care of by the school, so I think it is the ability to take care of oneself.”
After the young man finished speaking, the atmosphere fell into silence for a long time, until Yan Kai shook his head, and the young man’s hoverboard slowly descended, and Yan Kai spoke again.
“You answered wrong, you are eliminated, please go back.”
This made everyone look at each other in confusion.
If you answer wrong, you will be eliminated directly?
But everyone immediately came back to their senses and thought about the questions raised by Yan Kai.
Not long after, another three or four people were eliminated. This time it was Callum who stood up, which made Xiaozhi and the others nervous.
“I think it’s combat ability. Note that I’m talking about combat, not battle. In college, schools always teach some battle tests. I admit that this is indeed very useful in some battles, but what if it’s not in a battle? What if you encounter a sudden attack from a wild Pokémon? Do you still expect wild Pokémon to follow the principle of attacking the harem first? What if the opponent attacks the trainer directly? In my opinion, trainers who travel are safer than trainers who come out of college, because whether they will be attacked by wild Pokémon is also something they have to consider every day. As for battles, perhaps the two may be comparable, and even college trainers may be better, but as for combat experience, for battles that directly involve the trainer’s life safety, the experience gained from traveling is not something that schools can teach.”
Callum slowly uttered his answer, and Xiaozhi nodded. This was also the answer in Xiaozhi’s heart, because when he was fighting those rock-attribute Pokémon on Miyazaki Mountain in Pallet Town, he not only had to give orders to Pikachu, but also had to avoid the attacks that the rock-attribute Pokémon might launch against him at any time.
Sometimes there is no time to dodge, and Pikachu needs to predict the opponent’s attack on Ash and stop it. This really tests the tacit understanding between the trainer and the Pokémon.
After a long time, Steel King Yan Kai did not speak, but slowly clapped his hands.
“Brilliant, absolutely right.”
Yan Kai confirmed Callum’s answer and then asked everyone.
“Are there any of you who have the same idea as him? Raise your hands and we’ll move on to the next round.”
This couldn’t help but make everyone slightly shocked. This Steel King must be stupid.
If someone were to take advantage of the situation and say that they thought the same thing and then raised their hands, wouldn’t that be…
Xiaolan and Xiaomao did not raise their hands because the answers in their minds were different from the so-called correct answer.
In addition to Xiaozhi, three other people raised their hands. Seeing this, Yan Kai waved his hand gently, and except for the four people who raised their hands and Callum, everyone else slowly lowered their hands.
This means they were eliminated.
When everyone left the venue or came to the audience seats, Steel King Yan Kai once again slowly lowered the hoverboards under the feet of the remaining candidates. Unlike the previous times, this time, even his own hoverboard was slowly lowered.
“Now proceed to the second part of the test. Use all your means to defeat me.”
Yan Kai slowly threw out a Poké Ball, and a Pokémon that looked very powerful appeared.
This elf has a huge and thick sword body, hilt, hilt and sword spine, and the sword spine is golden. The sword body is inlaid with a round shield, and on the round shield are his facial features. Its eyes are dark purple, its arms are black, and its palms are dark purple.
Shieldblade, this is Yankai’s ace Pokémon.
“Whoever finally stands in the field, I will give him double qualification, and whoever finally beats me, I will give him the proof of beating me.”
Yan Kai said slowly.
Although Yan Kai is known as one of the Four Heavenly Kings, his strength is comparable to that of the champion Kaluni, because the ghost and spirit attributes of Aegis Blade are really too restraining to the fairy and psychic attributes of Gardevoir. It is also worth mentioning that Yan Kai’s Aegis Blade could never reach the champion level because of the hidden injuries he suffered when killing enemies on the battlefield, so he has never been qualified to become the champion.
So if we talk about someone who has defeated Yan Kai, there is really no one in this world.
Everyone looked solemn, as they seemed to feel the special aura from the battlefield emanating from Yan Kai and the Shield Sword Monster, and they became nervous instinctively.
Everyone sent out their Pokémons, including Haliri, Pikachu, Meowth, Lala, and Lizard, and several Pokémons came to the battlefield one by one.
Even though a few elves were too scared to move when facing the Shield Sword Monster, the battle between two unequal forces had begun.
“Sword monster with shield, iron hoof beam!”
Following Yan Kai’s order, the Shield Sword Monster began to change its form and the sword and the knife separated.
“Lala algae, fight back!”
“Umbrella Electric Lizard, attack!”
“Meowth, use the light wall!”
The three trainers shouted in cold sweat to the Pokémons that were almost scared silly.
Chapter 22: The Weaknesses of Sword and Shield (Old Version)
But Xiaozhi and Callum looked at each other, and the moment Yankai spoke, they ran back, looking at the actions of the Shieldmaw in front of them, and Pikachu and Haliri also looked at each other.
“Halili, dig a hole. Remember to dig it big so Pikachu can go in!”
“Pikachu, follow Halili, hurry up and don’t just stand there!”
The two of them ran backwards and shouted to their elves, which made the three people next to them very confused.
But these three people and their elves will soon pay the price for their reckless behavior.
Xiaozhi and Callum came to the battle platform and jumped down without hesitation.
“Oh my god! Danger! Xiaozhi!”
Serena and Xiaolan shouted quickly.
This almost scared everyone on the stage to death, because this rooftop is as tall as a building!
Xiaozhi and Callum actually jumped down without fear of death?
—————
A day ago, Xiaozhi and Callum were walking towards Miaore City. While resting in Mingshui Town, Serena went to the store to buy some daily necessities. After all, the little girl didn’t bring anything with her, so she just followed Xiaozhi and Callum out. While waiting for Serena, the two started talking.
“Xiaozhi, what kind of person do you think Serena is?”
Callum was not as dull as Xiaozhi. He had already seen through Serena’s feelings, so he asked Xiaozhi how he felt.
“She’s a good girl. My mother will probably like her very much.”
Xiaozhi thought about it and replied.
Indeed, Serena has always been a good girl in front of Satoshi, and she really meets Hanako’s standards for a child.
“Is that so? What about your father?”
Callum asked again after hearing Xiaozhi’s answer.
“I haven’t seen my father since I was born. My mother said he is dead.”
Xiaozhi replied without any emotion on his face.
How could Xiaozhi not have asked Hanako where his father had gone after so many years? But Hanako kept hesitating and refused to say, saying that he was dead, so Xiaozhi didn’t ask any more questions.
“Oh…I’m sorry…”
Callum quickly apologized and said he had no intention of offending anyone.
“It doesn’t matter. I don’t recognize him anyway.”
Xiaozhi didn’t care at all. Since the man abandoned him and Hanako, he had no right to be Xiaozhi’s father.
Callum seemed to have thought of something and said, “Well, our situations should be similar. My parents were both powerful trainers.”
“And then?”
“Later they joined the army and died on the battlefield. Their bodies could not be found.”
Suddenly, the air between the two of them became heavy.
“Ash, what role do you think trainers play in battles on the battlefield and in Pokémon battles?”
Callum broke the silence and asked Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi thought about it and said, “I think the first thing is to make the right decision without causing trouble for your own Pokémon.”
“you mean?”
Callum seemed to understand a little, but also a little confused, and asked again.
“I mean you have to ensure your own safety as well as the safety of your elf. At the same time, you should try to minimize the distraction of your elf from the battle because of you. If your elf is injured while trying to save you on the battlefield, then you will be close to death.”
Xiaozhi explained.
“So what you’re saying is that a trainer’s ability to protect himself is more important than his ability to command?”
“That’s about right.”
At this time, Serena came back and the conversation between Xiaozhi and Callum came to an abrupt end.
——————
On the playing field, Ash and Callum jumped down from the rooftop battle field, while one hand grabbed the side of the field with the other to prevent themselves from falling freely, while Pikachu followed Hari to hide in a small hole.
Suddenly, a terrifying white light appeared all over the shield sword monster’s body, and the iron hoof light attacked from all directions of the battlefield.
The three Pokémon lost their combat ability almost instantly, and the three trainers were not spared and were knocked unconscious by the Iron Hoof Beam.
This was the reason why Yan Kai only used the method of raising hands to select. Because he could think of Callum’s answer just now, he would not confront him head-on without knowing his own limitations, but would try to protect himself like Xiaozhi did.
Iron Hoof Ray is a very powerful move that can counterattack. Using this move just now consumed a lot of the Shield Sword Monster’s physical strength.
Xiaozhi and Callum pushed themselves up as if doing pull-ups, and Pikachu and Halili instantly stood opposite the Shieldsword again.
“One hundred thousand volts, and then use thunder!”
Now the Shieldsword had no way to dodge, and Xiaozhi gave orders to Pikachu without hesitation. Almost instantly, terrible thunderclouds gathered, and golden lightning spears shot out from the thunderclouds and Pikachu.
This is a combination of 100,000 volts and thunder, but unfortunately this move can only be used once per battle, and it will consume all of Pikachu’s stored electricity at once.
Shota in the audience stands couldn’t help but look a little solemn.
I didn’t expect that Xiaozhi actually had this trick up his sleeve. If I had used it when fighting him then, I would have had no chance of winning.
“King’s Shield!”
Yan Kai also gave the order, wanting to use the shield of the Shield Blade Monster to block the attack.
“Don’t even think about it! Halili, use the parasitic seeds!”
Seeing Aegisblade transform, Halili immediately threw out a seed, and this seed went right into the slots of Aegisblade’s sword and shield. Aegisblade was hit in the face by Pikachu’s combo in a strange form.
As the thunderclouds dissipated, the only ones left on the field were the panting Pikachu and the Shieldsword whose entire hilt had been electrocuted to the point where it had lost all its metallic luster.
But at this time, the Shield Sword Monster had not fallen yet.
After all, Pikachu and Halcyon are both elite-level Pokémon, and it is obviously impossible to defeat a king-level Pokémon just like that.
“Senior Steel King, you lose.”
Callum spoke slowly.
Steel King Yan Kai looked at the Shield Blade in front of him that was still able to fight, then looked at himself, and put the Shield Blade back into the Poké Ball.
I lost because I failed to protect myself.
When he looked down and saw the green needles sticking into his armor, he realized he had lost.
At the moment when Halili released the parasitic seeds, a missile needle attacked him. If he hadn’t been wearing heavy armor, he would have really been caught by these two little guys today.
Yankai signaled Miss Joy to take the trainers and their Pokémon away for treatment, then slowly came to Xiaozhi and Callum.
“Since you two have won, I will grant you dual qualifications. You are both highly gifted and powerful trainers and will become great aids to the alliance in the future.”
Yan Kai is an Alliance soldier. It is his habit to be upright and to take the Alliance as the starting point when thinking about the future.
After that, Yan Kai pointed at Callum and said, “This missile needle was fired by your elf, so it should be you who defeated me, right? Come with me later, I will take you to claim the proof of defeating me.”
Callum looked at Xiaozhi, then looked at Yankai, and said as if he had made up his mind: “Actually, Xiaozhi asked me to do those things just now…”
While the two of them were using one hand to support their bodies to prevent themselves from falling, Xiaozhi told Callum the next plan, using Pikachu’s powerful electric shock to force Aegisblade to change its form. After the change of form, it would be the best time for Haliri to launch the Parasitic Seed, or even a sneak attack.
If it were an ordinary battlefield, the tense Yan Kai would never make such a low-level mistake. Today, the opponent was indeed a little too confident.
Yan Kai looked at Xiaozhi and said again: “The future is promising.”
Xiaozhi nodded and didn’t say anything else.
(“Defeat the King-level trainer and get +3000 ladder points as reward)
Although Xiaozhi didn’t say anything on the surface, he was actually very happy. Now his points have reached 4300, and he can buy a lot of things in the mall.
(I want flowers and collections, please)
Chapter 23: Kingkiller’s Blade (Old Version)
Xiaozhi and Callum followed Yankai directly to the University of Miare, while the others returned to the research institute after receiving notification from Xiaozhi and Callum, waiting for good news from them.
The two followed Yan Kai and walked in the university’s teaching building. There were many classrooms where classes were being held. However, unlike the advanced schools, here students acquired knowledge through practice. For example, the classroom in front of Xiaozhi was a battle classroom, and the teacher was explaining things to the students using two fighting Pokémon.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the archive room.
“This is the archives room of Miare University. Take out your ID cards and I will register you.”
Yan Kai sat in front of the computer and said.
Xiaozhi and Callum took out their ID cards and handed them to Yankai. Surprisingly, Yankai just swiped it lightly on the computer and the registration was successful.
“Yinengzhi, login completed, academic qualifications are dual qualifications.”
Ino is Xiaozhi’s last name, the same as Hanako, and he took his mother’s surname. No one has called him by this name for a long time, which makes Xiaozhi feel a little unfamiliar with his full name.
“Callum Black has completed his login and his academic qualifications are dual qualifications”
But Yan Kai seemed to have heard something that made him absent-minded for a moment. He did not return the ID card to Xiaozhi and Callum for a long time, and his eyes were still fixed on Callum in front of him, as if he wanted to see something.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing Yan Kai acting so strangely, Callum spoke up.
“Your name is Callum Black, and you’re from Asaka Town, right?”
Yan Kai no longer had the oppression of a warrior that he had just now and during the battle. Instead, there was a strange… gentleness?
“Yes, I am. What’s wrong?”
Callum asked confused.
“Your father’s name is Earls Black, and your mother’s is Aisin Black, is that right?”
Yan Kai grabbed Callum’s hands and asked him urgently.
“How…how do you know?”
Callum’s eyes were filled with surprise.
Since his parents were declared dead by the Alliance, there has been no news. Even the notification only told Callum that they died on the battlefield and their bodies were not found.
But now, I actually heard the whereabouts of my parents here.
Yan Kai was silent for a long time before he finally spoke.
“I was their former comrade-in-arms. Your parents once said that you were the only one they cared about in the world, and asked the Alliance to take good care of you. That’s why I left the battlefield and came to the Alliance to become a superstar… I have been sending you the pensions over the years. I didn’t expect that you would grow up so big, and be so outstanding…”
Yan Kai was very emotional, but that’s how war is, there are never winners, and the biggest losers are these lonely and helpless ordinary people.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became silent.
“I see… It’s okay, it’s all in the past.”
Callum sniffed, and smiled as if he was very strong, and said.
“By the way, Uncle Yankai, aren’t you going to take Xiaozhi to get the proof that he defeated you? Let’s go, otherwise our friends may have to wait anxiously at the research institute.”
Seeing that the two were still silent, Callum took the initiative to change the subject, but unknowingly, after he knew the relationship between Yan Kai and his parents, the way he addressed Yan Kai changed.
Yan Kai nodded, and took Xiao Zhi out of the archives room and strolled around the university campus again. This time they went to the museum of Miare University.
As soon as Xiaozhi and Callum entered the museum, they sensed the same aura as Yankai.
The aura of a warrior who is ready to die cannot be hidden.
“Mr. Yan Kai, this is…”
Xiaozhi was a little confused as to why Yankai brought the two of them here.
Could it be that the thing that Xiaozhi wants to pick up is one of the items in this museum?
You know what, Xiaozhi actually guessed it right.
Yan Kai walked to a safe glass display case, pointed at the items inside and said to the two, “This is the proof that you defeated me, but whether you are qualified to be recognized by it is not up to me to decide.”
The two looked towards the safe, inside of which was a precious red ball, which was obviously very expensive.
“Inside this is a unique sword sheath of a different color.”
Yan Kai said.
In fact, each type of Pokémon has different colored species. Pokémon with different colors are actually no different from ordinary Pokémon. However, if wild Pokémon with different colors appear in the population, they will be attacked and excluded, and even hunted by humans.
Therefore, the strength of the colored elves is not a little bit stronger than that of ordinary elves. And because they have been exposed to such dangers and genetic mutations since childhood, their potential and talents are naturally incomparable.
“The different color of the single sword sheath….The King-killing Blade?!”
As a child who grew up in Kalos, Callum had obviously heard the legend of the unique sword sheath with different colors.
In fact, the Kalos region has not yet been fully unified. Each place has different countries and kings, but each of the kings will get a unique sword sheath when he is young, and after becoming a king, he will have a shield sword monster as a partner.
Therefore, the Shieldsword has another title, called “The King’s Blade”.
It has both a powerful attack sword form and a hard epidemic prevention shield form, plus its handsome steel appearance and the gray gold that symbolizes loyalty. This is the main reason why the Shield Blade Monster can become the king’s partner.
But this is not the case with the different colored shield sword monsters. Their hilts are black and red, and their scabbards appear sharper. They exude a terrible breath of death, as if the strange red color on their bodies is someone else’s blood.
Therefore, the colored Shieldblade monster clan is treated completely opposite to the ordinary Shieldblade monster clan. It is called the “King-Slaying Blade”. Whenever there is a colored single sword sheath in the world, it will be destroyed by all the Shieldblade monster clan because it is a symbol of bad luck.
The different-colored single sword sheath does seem to have a bloodthirsty nature. On the battlefield two years ago, Yan Kai brought the egg of the Shield Blade Monster back from the breeding house to the front line, and what finally hatched was a different-colored single sword sheath.
But this single sword scabbard seemed destined to be extraordinary from birth. When Yan Kai and the other two were fighting, the single sword scabbard was relying on its bloodthirsty nature to destroy the enemies on the battlefield, and its level was constantly improving. Finally, it defeated its final evolved shield sword monster and cut off the head of the king of the country that was against the alliance.
Of course, when you talk about the strength of the king’s shield sword monster, it is certainly not inferior to Yan Kai’s one, but this unique sword sheath of different colors seems to be born for assassination, and its use of shadows is simply terrible.
Hiding in the shadow of the king, the assassination was completed, so that the Shield Blade Monster had no encounter with the Single Sword Sheath before his master died.
It was for this reason that Yan Kai chose to keep him, but was afraid that he would continue to come out and hurt people, so he locked him in this precious ball, which matched the color of the unique sword sheath, and he would be much more comfortable living in it.
Yankai handed the precious ball to Xiaozhi, and suddenly, the wild breath of killing enemies on the battlefield enveloped Xiaozhi and Pikachu. In the end, Xiaozhi took it, because when he heard the allusion of the different-colored single scabbard and the story of this single scabbard, he understood the significance and value of this single scabbard in battle.
Sure enough, the moment Xiaozhi got the valuable ball, the system sent a prompt, which made Xiaozhi dumbfounded.
(“Host obtains achievement: “The Real Beginning”: Capture your first Pokémon. Ladder points +500.”)
(“Host obtains achievement: “Priceless”: Owns a Pokémon with a precious ball. Ladder points +500”)
(“Host obtains achievement: “Shining”: Owns a Pokémon of a different color, ladder points +1000”)
(“The host has captured a unique sword sheath of a different color, and gained points +800”)
It was then that Ash discovered that the achievements of this system could earn points. Of course, when Ash captured Pikachu, he still had two achievement points that he had not collected, namely “Well begun is half done”: owning your first initial Pokémon, get +500 points, and “Destined”: capture your destined Pokémon, get +1000 points.
Xiaozhi didn’t expect that he could get so many points by accepting the Single Sword Scabbard. Now he has 8600 points, so he immediately called up the data of the Single Sword Scabbard.
The glittering scabbard of a single sword
Name: Single Sword Scabbard
Features: No defense
Attribute: Steel Ghost
Skills: Holy Sword, Iron Hoof Beam, Gyro Ball, Sword Dance, Wild Dance, Shadow Sneak Attack
Level: Elite Advanced
Information: A single sword with a different colored scabbard, known as the King-Slayer Blade, murderous and bloodthirsty in nature, with extremely strong combat genes, and is most adept at using shadows, and can move from one shadow to another instantly.
He is very talented and has the potential to be a superstar.
(The third update is done. Our Xiaozhi will finally have a second Pokémon. If you have any ideas, you can say them in the book review. In the end, of course, I want flowers and collections. If the data is good, I will update more.)
Chapter 24 How about I make a bet with you? (Old version)
“Are you all ready?”
Yan Kai brought the two to one of the empty battle classrooms at Miare University.
Even though Yankai said that he could give Xiaozhi a chance to capture him, it was not up to him to decide whether Xiaozhi could be captured or not.
This strange-colored scabbard is his trump card, the offspring of the Shield Blade Monster. No matter who it is, its talent and potential cannot be low. The strange color and murderous character of the scabbard also give Yan Kai a headache. He has to imprison it in this precious ball, but it is also to protect the safety of the scabbard and prevent it from doing anything wrong.
So in fact, Lian Yankai has been helping this one-sword sheath to find a suitable trainer, and the so-called proof of defeating him is just an introduction.
After getting Xiaozhi’s affirmative answer, Yan Kai actually breathed a sigh of relief.
This extraordinary boy might really be able to
Genius among geniuses, this is how Yan Kai evaluated Xiaozhi.
Because even among many geniuses, Xiaozhi can stand out.
Xiaozhi nodded solemnly, and Callum beside him moved to the side. This was Xiaozhi’s request, because he wanted to gain the recognition of this unique sword sheath with his own abilities.
As Yan Kai pressed the button of the precious ball, what puzzled several people was that the figure that Du Jianshao was supposed to appear did not appear.
Xiaozhi closed his eyes, activated the power of the wave, and instantly locked the position of the single sword sheath.
“In my shadow, Pikachu, one hundred thousand volts!”
Xiaozhi yelled.
And Pikachu reacted instantly by turning around and shooting a golden lightning spear at the shadow next to Xiaozhi.
Du Jianshao was unable to dodge and was attacked by 100,000 volts, and finally revealed its true form.
As a strange red sword floated up, Xiaozhi and Pikachu finally saw the true appearance of the single sword sheath.
The appearance of the single sword sheath is a scarlet sword with a scabbard outside the sword body. The scabbard is black with patterns like a ghost face on it. The red eyeball on the sword guard is its body.
“Hey, how about I make a bet with you?”
Xiaozhi slowly spoke to the single sword sheath.
This made Du Jianshao stunned. What was the human in front of him going to do?
Bet with yourself?
Xiaozhi spoke again very calmly: “Of course, you don’t have to agree. It doesn’t matter if the so-called King Slayer is a coward who doesn’t even have this much courage.”
At this time, the Dujianshao finally said: “Qieqia! (Human, are you a human who can understand what I say? Interesting, how do you want to bet with me?)”
The Dujianscabbard could tell at a glance that Xiaozhi was extraordinary, but as it claimed to be the King-Slayer, it had the arrogance ingrained in its bones and could not withstand what Xiaozhi said.
“Our bet is simple. If you can stand still and take three of my attacks without moving a step, then I lose. If you move, then I win. It’s simple. How do you think?”
“Qie Qia! (Interesting. So what if I made the bet? If you lose, I will take your life. How about that?)”
Du Jianshao slowly said that this special human who offended him must be turned into a dead soul by his sword.
“Okay, you lose, come with me and be my elf.”
Xiaozhi agreed without hesitation.
“Qieqia! (Good!)”
At this time, Yan Kai also released his Shieldsword and the mother of the Single Scabbard, a Double Scabbard, from the Poké Ball. After all, they were his children. The two little Pokémon had not been seen for a long time because of its unique identity and the reputation of the King Slayer.
When Du Jianshao saw his parents, a trace of fluctuation flashed in his eyes, and then it was replaced by resentment.
Time came back to the battlefield two years ago. A black and red longsword-shaped elf broke out of an egg, and it was a unique sword sheath of a different color.
“Master Yankai’s elf egg has hatched successfully! But…”
Miss Joy spoke slowly to a soldier, as if she had something to hide.
Soon after, Yan Kai came to the single scabbard with his shield sword monster and double scabbards.
“Other color…King-killing Blade?”
Yan Kai couldn’t help but tremble in his heart. The legend of the King Slayer’s Blade was well known to trainers like him who owned the Shield Sword Monster.
The Carlos Alliance also has a king, and since they have a king, how could they let go of the existence of the Kingslayer Blade? Even if it is just a legend, no single sword sheath of a different color can be free after being discovered.
As to where they went, it is unknown.
When Single Sword Scabbard was just born, Shieldsword and Double Sword Scabbard knew the child’s future fate, but they still did their best to raise him for two months.
Two months later, as the army moved towards its next target, only Du Jianshao was left in the original camp.
Looking at the empty camp, Du Jianshao finally realized that he had been abandoned.
In the past two months, Du Jianshao had also heard those bad rumors about himself, such as the bloodthirsty nature of the King-killing Blade, but he didn’t care at all, because he only needed his parents to accompany him and he didn’t care about the world.
But now even my parents have abandoned me because of worldly reasons.
A strange energy surged in Du Jianshao’s heart, the hilt of the sword became even brighter red, and a very terrifying aura began to emanate from inside out.
It craves recognition.
A master who longs to be by his side and protect him like his own kind.
He was tired of being denigrated for being born with a different color.
So, he made a bold decision.
Kill the enemy’s king.
Perhaps by killing the king of the rival family, he would be recognized by the world, and perhaps he would be able to reunite with his parents.
On the other side, the war slowly began.
Countless Pokémon were fighting under the orders of their trainers. The scene was chaotic. Pokémon were constantly dying from excessive injuries, and trainers were constantly dying from being hit by the Pokémon’s special moves.
Just when the two sides were fighting fiercely, a scarlet sword handle entered the battlefield.
The Du Jian Shao constantly lurks in the shadows of trainers to carry out assassinations. The scarlet scabbard becomes more eerie when soaked in blood. Countless humans have died under the scabbard of the Du Jian Shao.
I have to admit that this single sword scabbard was made for war.
With the death of the trainer, the Pokémon on the battlefield began to become confused and stopped attacking. However, the Single Sword Scabbard continued to attack humans and finally arrived at the base camp of one of the parties.
The king in the base camp also owns a Shield Sword Monster, and when Du Jianshao saw the Shield Sword Monster, he immediately thought of his parents who abandoned him.
A strong murderous intent arose in Du Jianshao’s mind.
This is indeed a child’s psychological state. As a parent, you can be good to him or not, but you cannot be good to him and then abandon him, leaving him to face the dark moments of his life alone.
Almost instantly, the king’s head fell to the ground, and the shield sword monster became alert instantly, but the single sword sheath escaped safely in the shadow.
Chapter 25: Your Greatest Vision is to Protect the King (Old Version)
But contrary to expectations, after killing the enemy king, it did not receive the world’s admiration and became a hero admired by everyone.
Instead, it solidified its reputation as the “King’s Blade” and was labeled an ominous sign.
Even though it was it that beheaded the enemy king, even though it had made an indelible contribution on this battlefield.
But it still has not been forgiven by the world, and only because of its own different color.
After he escaped from the custody of the Alliance Government, he was even hunted for a long time until Yan Kai came to it with a precious ball. On either side of Yan Kai followed his parents, the Shield Sword Monster and the double scabbards.
Its parents advised it to enter this Poké Ball.
Du Jianshao will never forget the words his parents said to him.
“I’m doing this for your own good.”
Du Jianshao believed these words and was imprisoned in the Poké Ball for two whole years.
Until today, Du Jianshao has become familiar with loneliness, and has long since shed his previous immaturity and the disappointment of dependence on others.
It calls itself the King, but in fact it is not because of the pride it has for the title “King-Slaying Blade” in its heart, it even sneers at the title.
It is because it has no one to rely on in its heart and can only rely on its own strong mentality.
But how could a two-year-old elf do this?
Until today, I saw this special human being and met my parents again.
It can only pretend to remain calm and respond to the challenge.
Because he knew that if he did not accept the challenge, the last bit of backbone in his heart would be completely broken.
Xiaozhi signaled Pikachu to prepare for battle, and Pikachu quickly came to the front of the single sword sheath.
Xiaozhi came up and ordered Pikachu to use its most powerful move at the moment.
The golden lightning spear and the dense dark clouds gathered together, and countless lightning bolts struck the scabbard of the single sword.
The physical defense of a Pokémon like Du Jianshao is actually very high, but its special defense is very poor. Faced with such a powerful special attack from Pikachu, Du Jianshao couldn’t help swallowing in his heart.
On the battlefield, it hides in the shadows, and there are very few special attacks that can directly confront it. Coupled with its excellent physical defense, the Dujianshao is like a fish in water on the battlefield. Unfortunately, this is not a battlefield, and Pikachu’s most powerful move needs to be faced by it alone.
“Pika!”
As Pikachu roared, the thunder from the thundercloud and the lightning released by itself gathered together and hit the scabbard of the single sword.
But the Shield Sword Monster next to him shook his body.
The young man stopped.
This is what it thinks inside.
You know, even if he is at the king level, he would not feel good facing this move, let alone this single sword sheath.
Moreover, Pikachu’s move is indeed very exaggerated. Ordinary gym-level Pokémon may be killed instantly by Pikachu’s full-strength attack.
The huge lightning struck Du Jianshao right in the face, causing him to fall to the ground instantly.
The scarlet scabbard turned black due to electricity and seemed to be paralyzed.
But what no one expected was that Du Jianshao actually slowly climbed up.
Xiaozhi’s eyes moved, but he still said expressionlessly: “Let’s do it again.”
Because Pikachu didn’t use his full strength in the previous move, there is still electricity in his electric sac, enough to use it again.
Pikachu’s move was launched again, and when the lightning gathered, the Shield Sword Monster beside Yan Kai moved and instantly came in front of the Single Sword Sheath.
But the Dujianscabbard reacted faster, pushing the Shield Sword Monster away and being pierced by the terrible electric current again.
“Qie Qia… (Go away… I don’t need your pity…)”
The Dujianshao was already dying, but he still spoke to the Shield Sword Monster with firmness.
After saying that, he could no longer stand up.
After that, Xiaozhi and his friends immediately took Du Jianshao to the treatment room of Miare University. The professional therapists inside were shocked to see Du Jianshao injured like this.
“You guys go back first.”
Xiaozhi sat next to Du Jianshao and asked everyone to leave first, wanting to wait for Du Jianshao to wake up alone.
Seeing that no one made any move, he continued, “The Sword Scabbard will not want to see you when he wakes up, especially you and your Shield Blade Monster.”
Xiaozhi looked at Yankai, the Steel King, and spoke.
Steel King Yan Kai sighed and finally left the treatment room with Callum.
Two hours later, the single sword sheath finally came over.
“Qie Qia… (I lost, I accept the defeat…)”
Dujianscabbard saw Xiaozhi and Pikachu sitting next to him and spoke slowly.
“You pushed your father away just now to protect it, right?”
Xiaozhi did not respond to Dujianshao’s words, but spoke directly.
Du Jianshao was silent for a long time, but finally nodded.
Even though his father and mother abandoned him, even though he was tricked by his parents into being imprisoned in a Poké Ball, he still chose to protect his parents when they were about to be hurt, just like his father Shieldsword subconsciously jumped out to protect him.
They are little Pokémon, and many times they are unable to make decisions and have to follow the instructions of their trainers.
So many things can’t be done…
The separation of loved ones and the choices made will all be determined based on the trainer’s situation.
Just like when Aegisblade left behind the Scabbard, Aegisblade was afraid that the Scabbard would follow him and be harmed by humans like other colored Scabbards, so he chose to abandon him and turn him into a wild Pokémon.
But this hurt Du Jianshao.
It was the same thing when the Dujian Sheath was put into the Poké Ball two years ago.
The Shieldsword Monster was afraid that the Sword Scabbard would be hurt if it continued to escape, so it could only ask its master to make such a decision. Although it lost its freedom, it was very safe.
But this is indeed deceptive from the perspective of the single scabbard.
If there is one most complicated relationship in the world, it is the relationship between father and son. When the child is just born, the father is always the kind father, but when the child grows up, he hopes that his child can endure hardships that are beyond his ability.
In many cases, fathers and sons are like enemies. They always say the most unpleasant words to each other, always quarrel, and hate each other’s temper and character, but their own temper and character are most similar to those of the other.
But when they are really in danger, the first person to show concern is the other person.
The reason why a small elf like Shieldblade can become the king’s guard is precisely because of this point that is most similar to humans. When the closest people are hurt, they will always stand up to protect them at all costs, even if they themselves are hurt.
This is true for the Dual Sword Scabbard and the Shield Blade Monster.
“You have never been a Kingslayer. You have a strong desire to protect your loved ones. Compared to a Kingslayer, you are more of a responsible guard.”
“What you seek is not to kill the king, but to protect the king. Is that right?”
Xiaozhi continued.
Yes, the biggest vision of the Shield Blade clan is to use their shields to protect the people around them and use their scabbards to kill them.
There has never been any king-killing blade, there is only a strange-colored elf that is misunderstood by the world.
“satisfied…”
“I won’t force you. Think about it carefully. I’ll come to see you tomorrow. If you’re willing, just wait for me here.”
Xiaozhi placed the precious ball next to the Dujianscabbard and walked out of the treatment room. The Dujianscabbard’s scarlet scabbard moved, and its empty eyes looked at Xiaozhi’s back, gradually becoming firm.
The next day, Xiaozhi entered this familiar medical room. Looking at the empty room, Xiaozhi couldn’t help feeling a little uncomfortable.
Didn’t Du Jianshao still choose him?
Xiaozhi sighed, walked forward and picked up the precious ball. Suddenly, a familiar feeling appeared, and Xiaozhi and Pikachu smiled at each other.
“Pikachu, we have a new partner.”
Unexpectedly, the Sword Scabbard entered the Poké Ball by itself, which surprised Xiaozhi, but in the end, Xiaozhi finally gained the recognition of the Sword Scabbard.
Chapter 26 Why are you going to travel together? (Old version)
“Alas, we didn’t even get through… We came here for nothing.”
Xiao Mao complained helplessly.
“It’s okay, just treat it as a trip.”
Xiao Lan answered indifferently, seeming to be in a good mood.
As for the reason, it was of course because Xiaozhi passed the exam.
In fact, Xiaolan was very unhappy some time ago.
Why? Of course, it was because he saw Serena coming. Blue had almost forgotten about this person. After all, she had disappeared for almost two years. Who knew that when Carlos came this time, Xiaozhi contacted her again and brought her to the research institute.
Every time Xiaolan sees Serena, she feels like her childhood sweethearts can’t resist someone from heaven, so the two of them can be said to be quarreling every day in the past two days.
It is worth mentioning that Serena also said that she wanted to travel to Kanto with Xiaozhi, but how could Xiaolan believe such one-sided words?
But because the dual qualification exams are over, the three of them will be returning to Pallet Town soon, and this time, Xiaozhi will probably be separated from Serena for a long time again.
Of course Xiaolan was happy that she didn’t believe Serena was going to Kanto, but unfortunately she would soon not be able to laugh anymore.
“Oh, we’re going back to Pallet Town soon, and then I’m going to be with Xiaozhi every day…”
Xiaolan said deliberately to Serena.
“Tsk, it would be strange if Xiaozhi really wanted to be with you!”
Just as the two were arguing, Xiaozhi, who had captured the One Sword Scabbard, finally came back, and Callum had returned the day before and was on a plane to Kanto.
Because he was traveling out of town, and he might have to attend the Kanto Alliance’s Quartz Conference in the future, there were a lot of things to register for, so he had to leave early to get a passport and entry agreement and so on.
And Serena is different. She has been to Kanto two years ago, so there is no need to go through so much trouble. She can just go back with Xiaozhi and the other two.
“Xiaozhi, you’re back…”*2
Two voices sounded at the same time, with the same content.
Who could these two people be? Of course, it must be Xiaolan and Serena.
The two girls looked at each other, and neither of them gave way to the other and came in front of Xiaozhi.
This scared Xiao Mao. In his opinion, these two women were incompatible with each other, and you could tell from their butts that they both liked Xiao Zhi. Isn’t this a complete Shura battlefield?
In the past, during the summer camp, Xiaomao could help Xiaozhi with various things and keep Xiaolan from seeing the two girls, but what should he do in this situation now…
Xiao Mao couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
Xiaozhi, I can’t help you, you’re on your own…
“Ah… yes, I’m back. Hey, Xiao Mao, let me tell you, today I…”
Xiaozhi glanced at the two of them, seemingly not noticing the strange atmosphere. He walked between the two girls and came to Xiaomao’s side, telling her the story of taming the Dujianscabbard.
This made the two girls look at each other in bewilderment, feeling that Xiaozhi was too low…
At dinner time, everyone said goodbye at Dr. Bratano’s institute. This was their last dinner here on this trip.
“Really? So that’s how the round land shark came about.”
While eating, Xiaozhi listened to Alan and Shota telling about their encounter with the round land shark in Miare City today.
“This round land shark is really something. It must have been abandoned by its trainer. It actually ran to Mr. Limone’s house and snatched food from his flame chicken…”
Dr. Bratano looked helplessly at the round land shark that was feasting on the meal nearby and said.
Limone is a famous electrician in Miare City and the former owner of the Miare Gym, which has now been inherited by his son Hitler.
“That’s right. When we went there, the round land shark kept biting the flamingo’s feet and refused to let go. It took a lot of effort to separate them…”
“Hahahahaha…”
Amid the laughter, Dr. Bratano said to Ailan and Shota in a very serious tone: “Ailan, Shota, the research project of our institute has been decided.”
Each research institute has its own research projects. For example, Professor Oak in Kanto studies the relationship between Pokémon and humans, Dr. Sora’s research institute in Johto studies the cultivation of Pokémon eggs, and the newly established Dr. Blatano’s research institute has never had its own research direction. It is just studying the evolution of Pokémon according to Dr. Yamanashi, the teacher of Dr. Blatano.
This sentence made everyone become serious.
“Our future topic is: Evolution beyond evolution – MEGA evolution.”
“MEGA evolution?”
Everyone couldn’t help but ask questions together.
Dr. Buratano glanced at Sophie, who immediately understood, walked to the laboratory, came back with a box and handed it to Dr. Buratano.
Dr. Bratano took the box and slowly opened it.
There are two stones in the box, one big and one small. One of the small stones is blue with a beautiful glow, and is about the size of a fingernail. The other stone is green on the outside, and has a red-orange glow from the inside.
“Mega evolution, which I also call super evolution or million evolution, is a temporary evolution that only occurs during the battle. It allows some Pokémon that were originally unable to evolve to break through the limitations, release hidden power, and gain more powerful abilities. This evolution requires a strong bond between the trainer and the Pokémon, and is triggered by the resonance of the Key Stone and the Mega Stone.?”
“The so-called key stone is this smaller stone that needs to be carried by the trainer, and the evolution stone is different for different Pokémon.”
Dr. Bratano narrated incessantly.
“Does Pikachu also have a MEGA evolution?”
This was the first time that Xiaozhi heard of this new term, so he looked at Pikachu who was eating and asked.
“Pikachu has an evolved Raichu, so it can’t undergo a MEGA evolution, but Raichu may have a MEGA evolution.”
Dr. Bratano explains.
“So that’s how it is…”
Although Dr. Bratano only mentioned it briefly tonight, everyone kept this MEGA evolution in mind.
The next day, Miale Municipal Airport.
“What? You two are going to travel together? When did you decide?”
Xiaolan looked at Serena who came to the airport with the three of them, and finally learned the news that Xiaozhi and Serena were going to travel together.
“When I went to Chaoxiang Town not long ago… Hey, Serena, didn’t you tell them?”
Xiaozhi explained subconsciously, but was curious why Serena didn’t explain to Xiaolan and others.
“I did say it, but she didn’t believe it.”
Serena did tell Xiaolan this, but at that time Xiaolan was arguing with Serena, so she didn’t believe it at all.
Xiao Mao on the side quietly pulled Xiao Zhi’s clothes and gave him a thumbs up.
Xiaozhi glanced at Xiaomao and wondered what was wrong with this guy again.
In this way, the four of them took a plane and returned to the familiar Kanto area.
Feelings after the prequel ends (old version)
The prequel is finally finished with about 60,000 words. It lays a lot of foreshadowing and it is expected that the Kanto chapter can be completed.
How should I put it? This is my first novel. As a senior Pokémon fan, my purpose of writing the book is more to please myself. Of course, if you like it, that’s fine too.
I actually started this book with the intention of making up for my childhood regrets and some problems I encountered when playing Pokemon Showdown on the ladder platform.
For example, I feel that many of the current Pokémon are seriously replaced by upper and lower levels. For example, the simplest example is Golduck and Sauron. They are both rainy day fighters, but Sauron is much stronger than Golduck. So, can I give Golduck a special training, add an attribute, so that its characteristics can be developed?
Of course, if we design a new Gotha Duck with super-powerful water attributes and simple characteristics, would it be more in line with its temperament and further develop its value?
I think so.
There are also Pokémon like Arbok, Toxicopter, and many more. For me, a fan of both combat and anime, I feel that their combat capabilities are totally inconsistent with the anime level.
That’s why I tried to write it this way.
But I will not change the racial positioning of a Pokémon. For example, Golduck, based on his racial value and anime abilities, he is as strong as he should be. For example, Onix, although weak in battle, is still very strong in the anime, so I will reasonably enhance his strength, but not as outrageous as in the anime. As for some Pokémon that really cannot be saved, I will make my own evolved forms. Of course, I will involve racial values, characteristics, and drawings as if I were designing a new Pokémon. I won’t write randomly. If you like it, you can come and take a look. If no one likes it, I will write it for myself. If you have any opinions, you can tell me in the book review. Thank you.
Starting from the next chapter, I will update the content of the Kanto chapter.
Chapter 27: Journey to Zhenxin Town (4,000 words) (Old version)
“Ash! Pikachu! Are you guys up?”
In Pallet Town, at Xiaozhi’s home, a beautiful young woman and a lovely girl were busy in the kitchen.
It was Xiaozhi’s mother Hanako and Serena who came to Xiaozhi’s house.
Just as Xiaozhi expected, Serena, as a good girl, was deeply loved by Hanako. After returning to Pallet Town with Xiaozhi and the other two, she lived in Xiaozhi’s house.
This is the third day since they returned from Kalos, and it is also a new week. Today, Xiaozhi and Pikachu are about to embark on their journey.
Seeing that there was no movement upstairs, Hanako couldn’t help but frowned and said to the chubby-faced girl who was sitting at her own dining table waiting, “Xiao Lan, go upstairs and call Xiao Zhi. He hasn’t even gotten up yet.”
That’s right, Xiaolan came to Xiaozhi’s house again today to have breakfast. When she was preparing to go out for a trip, her parents still didn’t come back.
But this sentence shocked Serena, and she said, “Hey! Let Xiaolan go up and wake Xiaozhi up? That’s not a good idea…”
Indeed, in Serena’s opinion, being able to enter a room and wake someone up was a very intimate thing.
But Xiaolan looked at Serena jokingly, tilted his head slightly, and said proudly: “We have been like this since we were young!”
After saying this, regardless of the surprised Serena, Xiaolan came to Xiaozhi’s room.
“Serena-chan, don’t worry about it. Blue used to wake up Satoshi often, but…”
Hanako patted Serena’s shoulder, but before she could finish her words, Xiaozhi’s voice sounded from upstairs.
“Hey! Stop right there!”
Xiaozhi chased Xiaolan downstairs without even changing his clothes.
“I don’t want to!” Xiaolan made a face at Xiaozhi behind him, and then hid behind Hanako.
“Auntie, Xiaozhi called for you.”
Xiao Lan said coquettishly.
Hanako patted Xiaolan’s head, as if she had already gotten used to it. She looked at Xiaozhi who was speechless and said, “Okay, get up and wash up and change your clothes. There are two girls at home. You’re acting like a hooligan if you dress like this.”
“yes…”
Xiaozhi went to the bathroom speechlessly to wash up, then changed into formal clothes before going downstairs.
While Xiaozhi was washing up, Hanako explained to Serena why she asked Xiaolan to wake Xiaozhi up, because except for Xiaolan, it might not be so easy for anyone else to wake Xiaozhi up.
Xiaozhi looked at his new clothes and slowly put them on. It was a blue formal travel suit. Hanako had specially prepared these clothes for Xiaozhi’s travel. There were fourteen sets in total, so it was impossible for him to not have enough time to wash the clothes.
The remaining clothes are all in his backpack. This is the four-dimensional backpack researched by Professor Oak. The space in it is much larger than it looks. If there is not enough space later, he can just go to the city and buy a larger storage core. This is a must-have for every trainer who travels.
Xiaozhi looked at the Pokémon food, ketchup, and yogurt made by Hanako in his backpack and nodded.
This should be enough for Pikachu and Blademaster to eat, especially Pikachu. It will annoy Satoshi to death if it has nothing to eat.
Xiaozhi took a long time before slowly walking out of the room, while Pikachu beside him was stretching and yawning.
It was Xiaozhi who was woken up by Xiaolan just now, not Pikachu.
“Good morning, Pikachu.”
“Pikapi.”
The three girls greeted Pikachu, then sat down at the table and called for Ash and Pikachu to come over for breakfast.
After the journey to Kalos, Pikachu’s level broke through the bottleneck of the elite level and reached the super elite beginner level. His strength is considered very powerful among ordinary trainers.
By the time Xiaozhi came to the table, Xiaolan had already gone to Professor Oak’s laboratory with a piece of baked bread.
This made Hanako remind Xiaozhi: “Xiaozhi, you are going to be late, Xiaolan has already left.”
“If we’re late, then we’re late. It doesn’t matter if we leave later, right, Serena?”
Xiaozhi asked Serena as he picked up a piece of toasted bread and started eating it.
“It’s okay.”
Serena answered while taking small bites of her bread.
Today is not only the day when Ash and Serena set out, but also the day when students with grade B in the level test receive their initial Pokémon. Ash and Serena already have their initial Pokémon, so they just need to go to Professor Oak’s laboratory to receive their own Pokémon drawers and Poké Balls.
“Then don’t carry your backpack when you go out later. I’ll help you organize your space backpack.”
After that, Hanako seemed to have thought of something, stood up and went upstairs, ready to go to Xiaozhi’s room: “Mom, don’t move, I already prepared it yesterday.”
Xiaozhi said quickly, as if he was afraid that Hanako would put the things he had sorted out somewhere he didn’t know.
It’s like you usually put your keys on the table in your room, but your parents put them in the cabinet after helping you tidy up, then it will take you a long time to find your keys next time.
The same goes for the backpack. Now Xiaozhi knows exactly where the things are, but that may not be the case after Hanako has sorted them out.
“No, you are going on a trip this time, not just for fun. What if you forget something or miss something? I want to see it.” Hanako ignored her son’s words. Her attitude was firm and her tone was unquestionable.
Xiaozhi originally wanted to continue explaining and didn’t want Hanako to go through his backpack, but seeing that Hanako had already gone upstairs, he could only sigh, looked at the smirking Serena helplessly, ate his breakfast, and slowly walked towards the Oak Laboratory with Pikachu and Serena.
Pallet Town is not big, and Satoshi has walked this road countless times, so he and Serena soon arrived at Professor Oak’s Laboratory.
“Come on, Xiaomao! Xiaomao, Xiaomao is so great!” The two were halfway there, and before they even reached the research institute, they heard the cheers of the cheerleaders.
When they got closer, they saw a large group of people gathered in front of the entrance of the institute, including villagers from the town and their former classmates who had just received their initial Pokémons.
In the crowd, there was a group of women with great figures and a red sports car. A hedgehog-haired boy in the car was talking incessantly about his bold words after becoming a trainer.
Xiaozhi sighed and was about to pretend that he didn’t see anything as he took Serena and hid in a corner, wanting to sneak into Professor Oak’s laboratory.
But Xiaomao’s eyes were so sharp that he immediately spotted the two of them.
If I had known I would have been a little late…
This is Xiaozhi’s inner thoughts…
“Oh, Xiaozhi, you are late on the first day of your trip. That’s really outrageous. Can you really become a trainer like this?”
Xiao Mao looked at Xiaozhi with a playful expression. Xiaozhi’s lateness was in stark contrast to his own punctuality. Serena beside Xiaozhi was also in sharp contrast to the girlfriends around him.
This time, Xiaomao couldn’t help but think in his heart that he won this time.
Serena was about to retort on behalf of Xiaozhi, but Xiaozhi did pull at the corner of his clothes, then took a step forward and said jokingly, “Maybe I can’t help it, but compared to someone who wets the bed at the age of nine, I should still be considered a little talented.”
Xiaozhi’s sarcastic tone made Xiaomao’s face turn red instantly.
“Would you…could you not mention that!?”
Xiaozhi thought about it and continued, “So…you wet the bed and peed all over your grandfather?”
“Shut up!!!”
Xiao Mao was so angry that he almost fainted. Xiao Zhi would eat him up for the rest of his life just because of this little thing. But he was so angry that he couldn’t speak for a long time. He turned around and said to his neighbors and classmates: “Everyone! I, Xiao Mao, the number one genius of Pallet Town, will leave today! Thank you very much for seeing me off. Now, goodbye!”
After saying that, Xiao Mao got on the sports car. With the roar of the sports car, Xiao Mao’s journey began.
“I didn’t expect you to be so bad, Xiaozhi.”
Serena slowly walked up to Xiaozhi and said to him who was still staring in a daze at the direction where Xiaomao left.
“Tsk, who told him to be so arrogant?”
Xiaozhi said with some disdain.
At this time, Professor Oak came out of the research institute, and seeing the two people in front of him, he immediately said, “Xiaozhi, you are really late, why don’t you come in quickly.”
When Xiaozhi heard Professor Oak’s voice, he said nothing and took Serena into Professor Oak’s laboratory.
“Here, here are your Pokédex and Poké Ball.”
Professor Oak handed the Pokémon Dictionary and Poké Ball to Xiaozhi, and then reminded him: “Next, remember to go to the Pokémon Center in Viridian City to register as a trainer and to register for the Kanto League Quartz Conference.”
Xiaozhi nodded and was about to leave, but Professor Oak spoke again.
“Xiaozhi, the Pokémon I promised to find for you is still trying to convince you, so please wait a moment.”
At this time, Xiaozhi remembered that Professor Oak still owed him a starter Pokémon, and immediately waved his hand: “I already have two Pokémon now, why don’t I use them.”
“But you’ll be at a disadvantage this way. You’ve read a lot over the years, and your scores are so high, but you only get a Pokémon and a Poké Ball. This isn’t right…”
Professor Oak looked a little embarrassed, he didn’t want his students to suffer, after all, the first eighteen years of hard study was for a better starting point, but Xiaozhi’s score was so high and the starting point he deserved was so low, as a teacher, Professor Oak could not agree to it.
“Well, once you have done some work on the elf’s mind, teleport it to me.”
Xiaozhi looked at Professor Oak’s determined expression, sighed, and gave him face.
But just as Xiaozhi was about to leave, he turned back and said, “Thank you, Professor Oak.”
Xiaozhi’s gratitude is not only for the acquisition of the Pokémon this time, but also for the eighteen years of teaching and care.
Professor Oak nodded and watched Xiaozhi and Serena walk out of the research institute together.
“Ash, you have a very good relationship with Professor Oak.”
Serena teased to Ash.
Xiaozhi was about to retort when he heard a commotion coming from the door. When he got closer, he saw that it was Hanako and many of the neighbors and Xiaozhi’s classmates.
Xiaozhi immediately ran over, feeling a little bitter and a little happy at the same time: “Mom, everyone has their own things to do, there’s no need to call everyone to see me off…”
“I didn’t shout. Everyone wanted to come here on their own.” Hanako said, looking at the model of her son.
“Hanako’s boy, you have to work harder.”
“That’s right, Xiaozhi, you are the smartest in our class, you can’t lose to Xiaomao.”
“Xiaozhi, we will definitely meet again at the league tournament!”
Pallet Town is a small and relatively backward town, but the villagers here are very warm and welcoming, making the town very pure. Hanako is friendly and Satoshi has excellent grades, so many neighbors and classmates came to see him off.
“Xiaozhi, you are a very smart child, but it seems that you have never smiled much since you were a child, and you have never taken the initiative to make friends. You need to smile more, okay? Be kind to others, make more friends like Serena, don’t learn bad things, okay…”
Hanako came in front of her son and talked endlessly.
But this time, Xiaozhi did not run away or interrupt. He waited until Hanako had said enough and said everything she wanted to say, and then Xiaozhi slowly reached out his hand.
“I’ve remembered all of this. Mom, you should take care of yourself in the future. Giving the elves a massage a day is enough. Don’t be too tired.”
Hanako is a Pokémon masseur, and she raised Satoshi with the help of this job.
Hanako looked at her son, who was now as tall as herself, and handed him the backpack. She patted his head and said to Serena, “Serena-chan, my Satoshi is now in your care.”
Serena heard that Hanako seemed to have something else in her words and her face immediately blushed.
“good…”
After saying that, Hanako let go of Xiaozhi, and Xiaozhi also came to Serena’s side.
“Is the blonde girl next to you the daughter-in-law of the Hanako family?”
“This girl is so pretty…”
Listening to everyone’s words, Serena’s face became even redder, but Xiaozhi pulled her and Pikachu, and walked towards the gate of Pallet Town with everyone’s farewell.
(The main text has finally begun, please give me flowers, monthly tickets, and collections!)
Chapter 28: The Boy Besieged by the Spearow (Old Version)
After Xiaozhi and Serena left Pallet Town, they came to the first stop of this trip, Route 1.
Route 1 is a road that is neither long nor short. It connects Pallet Town and Viridian City, and has a bus as a transportation hub.
When Satoshi took the level test, he took a bus from Pallet Town to Viridian City.
This time, Xiaozhi chose to walk. The reason was simple: since he was going out to travel, he had to walk. Besides, Route 1 was not very long and an average trainer could reach the destination in about two days.
Route 1 includes a highway and a forest. Many Pokémon live in the forest. All of them are very docile and will even take a detour when they see Satoshi.
But there are docile ones, but naturally there are also vicious ones.
For example, there is a blind Spearow who is provoking Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi didn’t care too much. He waved his hand and pushed Pikachu who was eating ketchup.
Pikachu looked at Spearow, put the ketchup into Ash’s bag, jumped off Ash’s shoulder, and confronted Spearow.
“Go away with an electric shock.”
Xiaozhi didn’t really kill Pikachu, he just used a smaller electric shock.
As the electric shock started, a not-so-strong electric current hit the Spearow.
The effect is outstanding.
Just one move was enough to drive the Spearow away.
“Xiaozhi, is it really okay? I remember that Spearow is a social animal… What if it brings a group of Spearows back to take revenge on us?”
Serena said with some fear as she looked at the Spearow that was chased away by Xiaozhi.
“Do you think Pikachu is too weak, or do you think those Spearows are very resistant to electricity?”
Xiaozhi asked back.
Indeed, this is true for both the Spearow and its evolved form, the Toucan. As long as you scare them, they will no longer attack you. According to Professor Oak, these Spearows all come from the Viridian Forest. They saw that the Pokémon on nearby Route 1 were easy to bully, so they have been snatching resources from Route 1.
As for why they didn’t compete with other tribes for more resources in the Evergreen Forest, it was of course because of their nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
Suddenly, a sharp bird cry came from somewhere in the forest.
Xiaozhi looked towards the voice with disdain and couldn’t help frowning.
Such a powerful sound doesn’t seem to be made by a Spearow.
“Wow!”
A hesitant and fearful voice also entered the ears of Xiaozhi and the others.
Xiaozhi and Serena walked slowly forward and saw a young boy wearing a yellow and blue hat, with blue eyes and brown hair, a green short-sleeved shirt and green trousers. Like Xiaozhi, this boy also had a Pikachu beside him.
It is worth mentioning that the curly hair on this Pikachu’s head is very different.
“Hey, what are you doing!”
The boy was facing a group of Spearows ready to attack.
“It seems that these Spearows mistook him for you.”
Serena next to her guessed.
Xiaozhi didn’t say anything, because a huge bird-like Pokémon slowly flew out from the flock of Spearows.
Like an enlarged version of the Spearow, this is the evolved form of the Spearow, the Toucan.
This Toucan seems to be the leader of the Spearow group. Its strength is at the super elite intermediate level, which is very powerful among wild Pokémon.
When the boy saw the Toucan, he took two steps back and turned and ran with Pikachu.
Xiaozhi and Serena immediately chased after them, but when Xiaozhi saw how fast the Spearows were, he couldn’t help but feel discouraged.
What shocked Xiaozhi was that the curly-haired Pikachu was even faster than his own Pikachu.
So Xiaozhi and Pikachu couldn’t catch up at all.
The boy was running behind, while Curly Pikachu was running in front. The Flamebirds actually attacked Curly Pikachu, causing it to become covered in wounds and faint from exhaustion.
The boy immediately picked up the curly-haired Pikachu and continued running forward.
But Toucan was no pushover either. He used a Fierce Wind Move to attack the boy, who was instantly knocked away but still held the curly-haired Pikachu tightly in his hand.
The boy climbed up and found himself forced onto the edge of a cliff.
Looking at the Spearow and Toucan in front of him, and then at the injured Pikachu, the boy swallowed and jumped off the cliff without hesitation.
Fortunately, there is a river at the bottom of the cliff.
Following the river, the boy held Pikachu tightly and was washed downstream.
At this moment, the fishing rod of an orange-haired girl who was fishing beside the river suddenly responded violently.
“I didn’t expect the reaction to be so intense. Maybe it’s the legendary prey…”
The girl had obviously learned how to fish systematically. With a strong swing of the fishing rod, she pulled the “prey” ashore.
But when the girl saw the true appearance of her prey, she was slightly stunned.
“What the hell, it turns out to be a human.”
Unexpectedly, a human holding a Pikachu was caught, but when the girl got closer and saw the scarred Pikachu, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger in her heart.
“Thank you…”
The boy was about to thank her when the girl slapped him in the face.
“It’s badly injured. How could you bully it like this? It’s so pitiful!”
“I’m sorry, this is my fault…”
The boy looked down at the Pikachu in his arms and couldn’t help but lower his head again.
“Then why are you still daydreaming? Hurry up and take it to the Pokémon Center in Viridian City for treatment!”
“Where is Tokiwa City?”
“there.”
The girl pointed in the direction of Tokiwa City, hoping that the boy would go there quickly for treatment, but the boy’s eyes were suddenly filled with fear.
That’s right, the Spearow and the Toucan are here.
The boy saw a bicycle on the side of the road, ran straight over and put Pikachu on the basket of the bicycle.
“Lend me this.”
The boy got on his bicycle and rode towards Tokiwa City without hesitation, ignoring the girl’s attempts to stop him from behind.
Unexpected things happen. There were lightning and thunder in the sky. Suddenly, it started to rain heavily, which slowed down the car speed.
Meanwhile, the flock of Spearows were slowly approaching the boy. Finally, due to the interference of a Spearow, the boy fell off his bicycle and the dying Curly-haired Pikachu also fell out of the basket.
“Ryan!”
Ryan seemed to be the name of this curly-haired Pikachu. The boy crawled to Ryan’s side, ignoring the group of Spearows beside him, and gently stroked his scarred skin.
“Ryan, why is this happening…”
“It was only the first day we met, and we agreed to overcome your difficulties together…”
The boy’s name is Ahong. He is a student of Tokiwa Third Middle School. He got a B grade in the level test. Before setting out on a journey, he was late and got this curly-haired Pikachu that no one else chose at Professor Oak’s laboratory in Pallet Town.
Professor Oak tells Hiro that this Pikachu is defective.
That is, the electrical sac’s ability to store electricity is very weak, which is the so-called “electrical blockage syndrome.”
In other words, this Pikachu has no possibility of learning electric-attribute moves.
All trainers think that this Pikachu is useless and no one is willing to choose it as their Pokémon.
Pikachu felt very uncomfortable watching the elves around him being taken away one by one.
Until finally, he was the only one left.
At the same time, the young man in front of him entered the research institute.
“What? Doesn’t that mean I don’t have any elves?”
Hiro asked in surprise when he saw that there was no Poké Ball on the table.
“Yes, there is…but there is something wrong with this little Pokémon.”
Professor Oak pressed a button, and a Poké Ball with a dim lightning logo appeared in front of him.
Ahong immediately took the Poké Ball and opened it, and just like that, Ahong and Ryan met.
“What’s the problem? Isn’t this great?”
Hiro immediately picked up the curly-haired Pikachu and praised him.
This is also the first time today that Curly Pikachu has not been abandoned.
“Um… Hiro, this Pikachu has a problem with its electric bladder. It has “electrical blockage syndrome” and cannot use electric-type moves. I believe you know what this means. Are you sure you want to choose it?”
Professor Oak needs to be responsible for every trainer and Pokémon, so he reminded.
Ahong put the curly-haired Pikachu on the ground, squatted down, looked at Pikachu’s dim eyes again, and asked Pikachu: “Are you willing to accept this life?”
“Pika?” Pikachu was a little confused. He thought he was going to give up again, but he didn’t expect the human in front of him to say such a thing.
“I don’t believe that you can’t use electric-attribute moves without an electric capsule. From today on, you will be called Ren, the grace of thunder and lightning. There is nothing in this world that cannot be overcome through hard work. Are you willing to be my partner? Let’s get through this difficult time together, okay?”
Ahong stretched out his hand to Ryan, and Ryan kept staring at Ahong. Finally, the confusion in his eyes was replaced by a hint of determination.
Professor Oak also looked at Hiro with admiration, and finally watched the two of them set off together…
Even though this Hiro doesn’t have the talent of Satoshi, his grades can’t be bad.
This is what Professor Oak said about Hiro.
“Ryan, hide behind me and don’t move. You will be saved.”
Ahong seemed to have made up his mind and said to Ryan.
“Don’t worry, I will protect you. You must work hard in the future. I don’t believe in electrical blockage. You must work hard to overcome it and become a powerful elf, okay?”
Hiro spoke again, then stood up, opened his arms and roared at the Spearows.
“Do you know who I am? I am the most powerful trainer in the future!”
“I won’t lose to you! I will defeat all of you!”
At this moment, a tear rolled down Ryan’s eyes and he sat up.
“Ryan, don’t move, just leave it to me.”
Hiro said in a low voice, somewhat unsure.
Looking at Ahong’s back, Ryan seemed to have something extra all over his body, making a crackling sound.
“Come on, come if you have the guts!”
Hiro roared again.
At this moment, the Fierce Bird attacked Ahong almost instantly.
And Ryan also took action instantly, jumped onto Ahong’s shoulder, and attacked the Spearow.
Ah Hong’s shoulders felt numb and he fainted instantly.
Ryan was wrapped in electric current and attacked the flock of Spearows, causing an explosion.
After a long time, Ahong slowly woke up. By then, the rain had stopped and the sky had cleared up. The Spearows had already been dispersed by Ryan’s desperate counterattack.
Hiro picked up Ryan, took a look at the car that had been electrocuted to charcoal, and ran towards Tokiwa City.
(Since everyone is so reluctant to part with the original Xiaozhi, let’s let his mirror version replace him)
Chapter 29 I should pay? Why? (Old version)
Looking at Ahong jumping off the cliff, Xiaozhi couldn’t help feeling mixed emotions. Now all he could do was pray that nothing happened to Ahong.
After all, it was his own fault, and in the end someone else had to bear the consequences, which made Xiaozhi feel very uncomfortable.
“Xiaozhi…”
Serena looked at Xiaozhi who was like a child who had made a mistake. She wanted to comfort him but she didn’t know what to say.
After a long while, Xiaozhi shook his head and walked towards the direction of Viridian City.
“Xiaozhi…are you okay…”
Serena immediately followed Xiaozhi’s pace. Xiaozhi’s current condition made him very worried.
“Pickup truck…”
Pikachu on the side felt the same way. He was very sad, but he was more concerned about Xiaozhi.
Not long after, while walking on the road, Xiaozhi saw an orange-haired girl. The girl was very pure and beautiful, but her face was full of anger.
“Damn it, my bike!”
The girl was about to cry while holding the bicycle. You have to know that this bicycle is a famous brand bought in Hualan City, and it cost her a full 100,000 Alliance Coins.
Now it was snatched away and damaged by someone else! This is simply unforgivable!
“Um…Excuse me, what’s wrong with you?”
Serena saw the angry girl in front of her and stepped forward to ask.
“A thief with a Pikachu stole my bike! I was so kind to save him from the river, but he still stole my bike! This is too much!”
The girl said as she saw Satoshi and Serena walking towards her.
“What? A thief with a Pikachu?”*2
Xiaozhi and Serena looked at each other. Who else could the thief with Pikachu be other than the boy who just jumped off the cliff because of Xiaozhi?
When Xiaozhi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and his tense nerves relaxed.
So, that person should not be dead.
“Why? Do you know each other?”
The girl looked at the two of them suspiciously and asked.
“Here’s what happened…”
After that, Serena told the girl what had happened. Only then did the girl understand the whole process.
“So that’s how it is. Let me ask you, what’s your name?”
The girl suddenly asked Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi was stunned, and answered subconsciously: “I am Xiaozhi, Xiaozhi from Pallet Town, this is my partner Pikachu, she is traveling with me, Serena from Kalos.”
The girl nodded and introduced herself: “Listen carefully, I’m Xiaoxia, the most beautiful girl in the world from Hualan City!”
After hearing this, Xiaozhi and Serena fell silent for a moment.
Does this girl have a chuunibyou?
Such lines can be said
Seeing that the two were silent, Xiaoxia changed the subject again and said, “I roughly understand the situation. It was you who caused the thief to fall off the cliff. If I can’t find him, you have to compensate me for the bicycle!”
“I pay? Why?”
Xiaozhi was immediately furious. He had no grudge against her, so how could this be so unreasonable?
So Xiaozhi took Serena and turned around and left, without paying any attention to Xiaoxia, heading towards the direction of Viridian City.
“Hey, don’t go! Wait for me!” Xiaoxia looked at her bicycle which had become scrap metal, picked it up and put it on her shoulders, then chased after the two of them.
“Xiaozhi, she’s following us…”
Serena pointed at Xiaoxia behind her and said unconfidently.
“Who cares?”
Xiaozhi replied that in Xiaozhi’s opinion, he did hurt Ahong, but what did he have to do with the broken bicycle? Why should he pay for it?
If Hong has to compensate for mental damages and medical expenses, Xiaozhi will naturally have no complaints, but why should he be compensated for the bicycle?
Not long after, Xiaozhi and the other two entered Viridian City one after another. Unlike the simplicity and backwardness of Pallet Town, Viridian City is a city, an advanced city. Even if it is not as luxurious as Miaore City, it is more prosperous than many other cities, and high-rise buildings and schools can be seen everywhere around it.
Not long ago, when Xiaozhi came here for the level test, it was daytime, so he didn’t feel how lively the city was. But now it is night, the whole city is still brightly lit, and vendors from all over have formed one snack street after another.
“Excuse me, please show me your trainer certificate!”
Just as Xiaozhi and Serena were admiring the bustling crowds of the bright lights and night scene of Tokiwa City, a beautiful police officer wearing a blue police uniform and a blue police hat with a Growlithe beside her appeared and blocked their way. This person was Junsa.
Xiaozhi nodded, took out the Pokémon illustrated book given by Professor Oak from his pocket, debugged his identity information, and handed it to Junsha.
Serena also made the same move, and after checking, Xiaoxia quickly caught up with the two of them.
But when she saw Junsha, she obediently showed her ID.
After checking the identities of the three people and confirming them, Miss Junsha returned the illustrated books one by one and saluted them with a standard military salute: “Thank you for your cooperation! There have been many cases of Pokémon snatching in the city recently. Please be more careful, especially for trainers with Pikachu. It would be better to put the Pokémon in the Poké Ball. If you leave it outside, it will be easy for someone to spot and snatch it away…”
“Pika Pika!”
Before Miss Junsha finished speaking, Pikachu put down the ketchup in his hand and shouted unhappily. There are two things that Pikachu hates the most in his life. One is not being able to eat ketchup or yogurt, and the other is entering the Poké Ball. After Xiaozhi officially captured it, it couldn’t stand it after staying in it for five minutes. Xiaozhi was also very helpless and didn’t understand why Pikachu hated the environment in the Poké Ball so much. For example, the scabbard of the sword was fine inside, and it didn’t even react at all.
Xiaozhi gently patted Pikachu’s back, signaling it not to be rude to Miss Junsha, and said to Miss Junsha: “I know, Miss Junsha, thank you, but my Pikachu doesn’t like to enter the Poké Ball, so I will definitely protect it.”
Seeing that Xiaozhi was so polite, Miss Junsa smiled again, and Xiaozhi immediately said goodbye to Junsa, and Pikachu was still lying on his shoulder, and Serena and Xiaoxia hurriedly followed.
Xiaozhi went to the Pokémon Center as his place to stay for the night and signed up for the Kanto Alliance Quartz Conference.
After arriving at the Pokémon Center, Xiaozhi immediately found Miss Joy to sign up. The registration took 5 minutes and the registration was completed.
The Kanto League Quartz Conference requires contestants to travel and challenge eight gyms and obtain eight badges before they can participate. As for another way to participate, of course, it is through university studies and finally use the school’s quota to participate in the conference.
Of course, Xiaozhi took the first path, because his university qualification, Miare University, was in Kalos, and he only had a place in the Kalos League. He still had to challenge the gym in Kanto by himself to participate in the competition.
Currently, the only things that Miare University can provide to Xiaozhi are resources. For example, many of the berries and top-level medicines that Xiaozhi currently has on him were sent to him by Miare University.
It is worth mentioning that there is a gym in Tokiwa City.
But because the Viridian Gym is too powerful, the gym owner here requires challengers to have at least 5 badges before they can challenge it. So after Xiaozhi finishes replenishing supplies tomorrow, he will leave Viridian City and head to the next town, Nibe City, to challenge the gym there.
(Today I have written nearly 10,000 words. Are there any free flowers or collection rewards?)
Chapter 30 Who threw the junk here (old version)
After saying goodbye to Miss Junsha, Xiaozhi and the other two arrived at the Pokémon Center in Viridian City one after another.
When Misty saw Ash and Serena coming to the front desk of the Pokémon Center, she casually placed a bicycle that was charred by electricity aside and came to Ash’s side.
Looking at Xiaoxia’s resentful eyes, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but sigh.
This incident made me feel like I was being shot even when I was lying down.
So Xiaozhi stopped paying attention to Xiaoxia and went to the phone to call his mother.
“Hello, Ino’s family in Pallet Town.”
The call was quickly connected and Hanako’s voice was heard.
“Hello, Auntie.”
Serena stood next to Satoshi and greeted Hanako.
“Hey, Serena-chan, Pikachu, are you all okay? Did this kid Xiaozhi give you any trouble?
Xiaozhi sighed, wondering why his mother was still like this, and said casually: “Okay, Mom, I’m in Viridian City.”
“Ah, Xiaozhi, why are you all wet? If you don’t take a shower quickly, you’ll catch a cold!”
Hanako noticed that her son was soaked in water, with water droplets on his face, and asked.
It actually started raining just before Ash and the other two arrived in Viridian City. Actually, Serena did bring an umbrella, and one umbrella was big enough for two people, but when Ash saw that Misty was shivering from the cold, he asked Serena to share an umbrella with her while he came in the rain.
Serena looked at the shivering Misty. How could she not see Misty’s condition? It was obviously one of those special days. If she caught a cold, it would be terrible. So with Xiaozhi’s consent, she immediately came to Misty with an umbrella.
Looking at Xiaozhi who was caught in the rain, Xiaoxia couldn’t help feeling touched.
And he began to wonder whether he should put the blame on Xiaozhi.
“It was raining heavily in Viridian City just now. I forgot to buy an umbrella. Serena’s umbrella can only support one person.”
Xiaozhi didn’t tell the truth, and pressed Pikachu, who was full of doubts, under him, for fear that his mother would notice something was wrong.
This couldn’t help but make Xiaoxia, who was not appearing on the video screen, laugh slightly.
It seems that this guy is quite afraid of his mother.
“I told you to remember to bring an umbrella! Serena, tomorrow you should go with him to buy one. Be careful outside. Hold an umbrella on rainy days. It’s not good to catch a cold…”
Sure enough, Hanako started the chattering that Xiaozhi was familiar with.
But as she spoke, she seemed to remember what her son had just said, and a smile suddenly broke out on her face, the pride revealed in her smile was beyond words.
“But then again, it’s really amazing that you can reach Viridian City in just one day. When I set out on the journey with your father, it took us three full days to reach Viridian City.”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frown. This seemed to be the first time since he could remember that Hanako had mentioned her father in front of him.
Hanako seemed to be lost in memories. Looking at Xiaozhi and Serena in front of her, she seemed to see her husband and herself ten years ago.
After a long while, Hanako finally spoke again.
“In any case, Xiaozhi, you can definitely become a stronger trainer than your father and your grandfather. Come on, Xiaozhi! Serena-chan, my Xiaozhi is in your hands.”
But just as Hanako was about to hang up the phone, she seemed to see something and continued to ask.
“Hey, Xiaozhi, who is that girl behind you?”
Hanako’s words made Xiaozhi and Serena slightly stunned. They turned around and found that Xiaoxia had come behind them without them knowing, and the video camera could just see him.
“Friend, I met him on Route 1. Mom, I’m going to take a shower. I’m hanging up now.”
Xiaozhi was afraid that Xiaoxia would talk nonsense, which would bring out Hanako’s nagging nature again, so he quickly explained and hung up the phone.
Xiaozhi put down the phone, looked speechlessly at Xiaoxia who was looking at him indifferently, and then decided to go back to take a shower.
But Hanako, who was far away in Pallet Town, did misunderstand her son’s behavior.
“What is this child feeling guilty about? Could it be…”
“Okay, I don’t remember teaching Xiaozhi to be such a playboy!”
“You’re not satisfied with Serena-chan and Blue!”
There is no clear monogamy in the Pokémon world. Polygamy or polyandry is allowed as long as one is willing.
Otherwise, if Xiao Mao had so many girlfriends, Professor Oak would have beaten him to death long ago.
At this moment, a voice suddenly attracted everyone’s attention.
“Ms. Joy, how is my Pikachu?”
It is worth mentioning that when the boy walked towards the crowd, he was tripped by the charred bicycle.
“Who left the junk there?”
Ah Hong didn’t see clearly what tripped him, but when he looked closely, he couldn’t help but wonder why this bicycle looked so much like the one he and Ryan broke on Route 1. Could it be that the bicycle was chasing him?
How is that possible?
“By the way, whose bicycle is that?”
Only then did Ahong remember that he had broken someone else’s things.
I only remember that I was very anxious at that time and was chased by a group of Seraphim. Ryan was injured again, so I robbed a car at random. As for the original owner of the car.
It seems that apart from slapping him, I have no memory of it.
When he jumped off the cliff in a hurry, he seemed to see a very handsome Gyarados in the river. Hiro couldn’t help thinking that it would be great if Gyarados could help him defeat Spearow…
When Xiaoxia saw Ahong, she was trying hard to suppress her extremely unhappy temper. But when she heard Ahong say, “Who put the junk here?”, she couldn’t hold it back at all and exploded instantly. She glared at him and shouted:
“I finally found you, the thief who stole my bicycle!”
Ahong didn’t react at first, but when Zixi took a look at Xiaoxia’s face, he recognized the girl in front of him.
“Ah, how did you find a place like this? I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. My partner was injured, so I took your bike. I’m really sorry!”
After recognizing Xiaoxia, Ahong immediately apologized sincerely and told Xiaoxia his reasons.
Xiaoxia was originally very angry, but seeing that Ahong’s attitude was too sincere, she finally waved her hand and said, “Forget it, you can just compensate me with a new one when the time comes.”
But he seemed to remember something, a sly smile appeared on his face, he glanced at Xiaozhi, and continued to say to Ahong: “By the way, the car thief…?”
“I told you I’d take responsibility, so stop calling me a car snatcher!”
Hiro interrupted before Xiaoxia could finish.
Obviously, this title did not make him very happy.
Xiaozhi frowned and understood what Xiaoxia wanted to say, which was of course to tell Hong the reason why Lieque was chasing him, but he still shook his head.
People should be responsible. This incident was indeed caused by him. He has caused so much trouble to others, so of course he should apologize.
“I have a name. My name is Hiro, Hiro from Vermilion City. I graduated from Viridian City Third Middle School. I will definitely become the most powerful trainer!”
Ahong introduced himself to everyone, but when he saw Xiaozhi, he pointed at him in disbelief.
“You…you are…the top student of Pallet Town! Inochi!?”
Xiaoxia couldn’t help but be slightly stunned. No way, these two people know each other?
“Do you know me?”
Not to mention that Xiaoxia was stunned, even Xiaozhi didn’t know what was going on.
Hiro excitedly continued, “How could I not know you? You’re the top scorer in this year’s Tokiwa City Third Middle School’s graded exam! Everyone in our school knows you!”
Xiaozhi thought about it and it seemed that this was indeed the case. Although the level test was divided into four levels, A, B, C, and D, there were still exact scores. Xiaozhi seemed to have heard Professor Oak tell him that he was the top scorer in the test.
Chapter 31 Are you interested in joining us? (Old version)
“I see…”
After formally introducing himself to Hiro, Ash told him that it was his negligence that led to Hiro being attacked by the Spearow, and solemnly apologized to Hiro.
Ahong looked at Xiaozhi who admitted his mistake and waved his hand: “It’s okay, you didn’t mean it anyway.”
After all the comings and goings, everyone got to know each other, so after Xiaozhi and the other two returned to their room and took a shower, they went to the restaurant to eat together.
“Really? Is Xiaozhi that famous?”
When he heard Hong say that Xiaozhi was very famous in Tokiwa Third Junior High School, he couldn’t help but find it hard to believe.
“Yes, although he is not from our school, he is better than those students with excellent grades in our school, and he also breaks our stereotype of the Pallet New Academy. In short, Xiaozhi is really famous in our school.”
While explaining the impact that Xiaozhi had due to his grades, Ahong was eating the meal he had just prepared.
Indeed, because of the existence of Satoshi, Pallet Town has become completely famous. Although we don’t know how it ranks nationwide, but since he was able to get the top spot in Tokiwa Third Junior High School, the best high school in Kanto, then his national results will naturally not be bad.
But Xiaozhi doesn’t care about all that. In his opinion, he just needs to do his best. He doesn’t care about being the top scholar or having any fame.
It turns out this guy is so awesome.
As a native of Cerulean City, Xiaoxia couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, how could she not know how powerful she would be at Tokiwa City Third Middle School.
While a few people were having dinner…
“Bang!”
Suddenly, the sound of breaking glass came from above the hall, followed by Miss Joy’s scream.
Xiaozhi and his friends hurriedly ran towards the hall. Just when they were halfway there, three figures fell from the sky in the distance. They actually broke the glass roof of the Pokémon Center and used ropes to jump to the center of the hall. When they landed, they struck a posture that Xiaozhi thought was very immature and stupid.
One was a woman with long red hair. I don’t know how much hair wax she had applied to her hair. Instead of hanging down her back like normal hair, her hair just floated in the air.
The man standing next to the woman was blue-haired. It should be considered a kelp hair, but one could tell from his extraordinary temperament that he was a rich young master from some family. Both of them were wearing white uniforms with the letter “R” engraved on them. They looked very neat and tidy. It was obvious that they were a gang.
Standing in the middle is a cat, which is actually walking upright, with a very cunning expression, which makes people feel a bit of the uncanny valley effect at first glance.
“Who the hell are you guys?”
Hiro asked loudly to the three of them.
But this sentence was like a trigger for these three people. The three people who were originally looking around immediately looked at Ahong.
What followed was a long and eloquent opening speech.
“You are so sincere…”
But before he could finish his words, a sudden voice popped out.
“Pikachu, 100,000 volts, shut them up.”
Pikachu, who was originally beside Joey, noticed something was wrong and immediately came to Xiaozhi holding a precious red ball.
This is of course Ash’s other Pokémon, Scabbard.
The golden lightning gun shot at the two people and the cat. The other party was caught off guard and was electrocuted by Pikachu.
“It’s so numb, so numb, so numb…”*3
“Oh, you rude brat! You didn’t even let the other person finish speaking!”
“That’s right, at least let us finish!”
“How rude, meow!”
The two people and the cat spoke immediately.
The one with red hair is called Musashi, and the one with blue hair is Kojiro… What? These two guys have average strength… Damn, no, did that meow just now speak?
After using the system to retrieve the information of the trio in front of him, Xiaozhi was slightly stunned and couldn’t help but complain in his heart, but he still didn’t let his guard down, because in the Pallet Shin Academy, Professor Oak had introduced Team Rocket to the students there many times.
This is an organization that specializes in stealing other people’s Pokémons and selling them on the black market to make money. The letter R is their logo.
“This group of people is Team Rocket! Everyone be careful!”
Everyone had received education in a high school, so how could they not know the name of Team Rocket? But they still reminded each other.
Xiaozhi closed his eyes, and a clear blue flashed in them.
The power of waveguide, activated.
But the moment Xiaozhi activated the power of the wave, he pointed to the window next to the hole where the trio had just jumped.
“Pikachu, face that window, the electric fence!”
Pikachu immediately took action and threw a large lightning net towards the window.
This move is Electric Grid, a new move that Pikachu learns when it reaches the Super Elite level.
At the moment when Pikachu activated the electric net, the glass of the window shattered instantly, and a Poké Ball was thrown in from the broken window.
A Nidoqueen appeared out of nowhere and blocked Pikachu’s electric net.
Behind Nido, a woman slowly walked out. She was a beautiful woman with a doll-like head and wearing glasses and a suit.
“Three idiots…”
The woman spoke to the trio without any hesitation.
“What did you just say!? You damned doll-headed woman!”
Musashi was instantly furious. This operation was led by the trio, and Manato was just a fighter sent by Team Rocket to assist. How dare he talk to him like that…
“Forget it, Musashi, we still have to work with her on this event…”
Kojiro admonished from the side.
Xiaozhi took this opportunity to immediately retrieve the information of the woman in front of him. She was Manbird, a mid-level cadre of Team Rocket and a direct subordinate of the boss of Team Rocket. She would become the assistant of the boss of Team Rocket in the future.
Wow, this woman is much more interesting than those three idiots…
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but think in his heart.
I thought there would be a tough battle tonight…
“Are you Inochi?”
Manatori ignored Musashi and just stared at Xiaozhi, slowly asking a question.
No way, this woman knows me too?
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but secretly groan in his heart, thinking that his fame was so great…
“I am. May I ask what you want now?”
Xiaozhi answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.
“Are you interested in joining our Team Rocket?”
Manatori’s words made everyone slightly stunned, and also made Xiaozhi slightly stunned, but after thinking about it, he couldn’t help but feel that it made some sense.
If I say that I am a highly educated talent, why wouldn’t the Rockets want to accept me?
But Xiaozhi didn’t say anything and just confronted Manato.
(That’s all for this morning. I’ll check the data at noon. If I get more monthly tickets or Vs, I’ll update more. It’s the beginning of the month, so please give me monthly tickets and collections, brothers.)
Chapter 32 I Want to Be Your Dad (Old Version)
“Xiaozhi, what are you doing! Reject him now!”
Seeing that Xiaozhi was silent, Xiaoxia quickly reminded him.
After saying that, he tried to go over and grab Xiaozhi, but was held down by Serena beside him.
“What are you doing!”
Xiaoxia said angrily.
But Serena looked at Xiaoxia confidently and slowly uttered four words: “He won’t.”
Seeing that Xiaozhi didn’t answer, Mantori thought there was something going on and continued.
“We can give you everything you want, money, power, as long as you let us see your value, we will give you everything.”
“But if you refuse, then you’ll have to…stay here today.”
Manabu smiled confidently, and Nidoqueen also stomped her foot on the ground. The flying dust made everyone cover their mouths and noses. At this time, it seemed that Xiaozhi was already in the Rocket Team’s pocket.
“You can give me anything?”
Xiaozhi asked Manato, but after Xiaozhi said this, another burst of curses came from Xiaoxia’s mouth.
Ahong also looked at Xiaozhi with suspicion.
“Really, we can give you anything, including these three idiots. As long as you join us, they will be your subordinates in the future.”
Manato said, pointing at the trio who were carrying Poké Balls nearby.
“What?”*3
“I say, woman, don’t go too far!”
Musashi came in front of Manatori again, and Kojiro immediately stepped forward and grabbed Musashi.
“Forget it, forget it, hurry up and move the Poké Balls, this is related to our promotion…”
“Oh…”
A contemptuous laugh came out of Xiaozhi’s mouth, and he asked again in a joking manner.
“Are you sure anything is OK?”
Manatori frowned and reaffirmed: “Of course, as long as the organization can do it, it’s fine.”
Xiaozhi’s eyes became sharp, and he could no longer hide his smile. He said, “Marry your mother to me. I want to be your father, okay?”
“Single Sword Sheath, Shadow Sneak Attack!”
Xiaozhi had released the Dujianshao without knowing when, and had been stalling for time to find an opportunity for Dujianshao’s sneak attack.
It not only deceived the real bird, but also deceived Ahong and Xiaoxia who were standing nearby.
“Serena, you and Hiro go stop those three idiots, leave this to me.”
After seeing Xiaozhi’s attack, Xiaoxia immediately understood Xiaozhi’s intention and said to Serena and Ahong.
“Are you okay?”
Hiro asked back, he didn’t know Misty’s level as a trainer, if the trainer’s level was too low, instead of causing trouble for Satoshi here, it would be better for him to go with him to cause trouble for the trio.
“certainly.”
Xiaoxia affirmed, and then took out a blue badge to show her strength.
When they saw Xiaoxia take out the badge, the two of them were completely relieved and immediately came to the trio.
“You actually want to stop us!”
“They are just two little devils!”
“Kill them meow!”
On the other side, as the single sword scabbard emerged from Nidoqueen’s shadow, a sword slashed at Nidoqueen’s knee. The unprepared Nidoqueen was knocked to her knees.
“Pikachu, use Iron Tail!”
Xiaozhi immediately gave the order again, this is not a battle, we are not going to fight you one-on-one.
Pikachu also took immediate action, its tail quickly hardened and smashed into Nidoqueen’s head.
This could not help but surprise Xiaoxia. Both attacks launched by Xiaozhi were aimed at vital points, leaving no chance for the opponent.
But Nidoqueen roared and got up again.
This Nidoqueen has the strength of an early quasi-king level. Its wheel level is one level higher than Ash’s Pikachu, and two levels higher than the Blade of the Universe. How could it fall down just by receiving such an attack?
“Have you had enough fun? I! Want! You! To! Die!”
Feeling that he was being teased, Zhenniao’s face was already filled with anger.
“Mud wave!”
In an instant, purple liquid appeared out of thin air under Nidoqueen’s feet and attacked Pikachu and the Sword Scabbard.
“Oh no! Come on! My baby, use Surf! Protect Pikachu!”
Xiaoxia immediately took action, threw a Poké Ball, and a Pokémon with a red gem flashing on its chest appeared.
Starfish? Peak gym level?
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but be shocked. He didn’t expect Xiaoxia to be so strong.
When the Gem Starfish appeared, it raised a wave and came straight to Pikachu.
The waves and venom collided, seemingly evenly matched, but the venom remaining on the ground completely restricted Pikachu’s movements.
What’s worse is that the scabbard of the sword was engulfed by the venom and there was no movement anymore.
Nidoqueen took another step forward, and a terrifying heat came from the ground.
The power of the earth!
“Jewel Starfish, run with the water, take Pikachu with you!”
Xiaoxia ordered immediately.
The Gem Star immediately took action, turned its entire body sideways, and used its telekinesis to place Pikachu on its back. It immediately sprayed powerful water pressure towards the gem on the ground, carrying Pikachu into the sky, thus avoiding this move.
“Sharp Stone Attack.”
At Manabu’s command, gravel appeared beside Nidoqueen and hit the Gemstar that was trying its best to fire water cannon under Pikachu.
Suddenly, the Gem Starfish was hit head-on and instantly lost its ability to fight.
And Pikachu also landed on the ground again.
“Jewel Starfish!”
Misty had no choice but to take back the Gemstar. Now she could only put her hope on Satoshi. She took two Pokémons with her, one of which was Gemstar, and the other… seemed to be a bit disobedient.
“Okay, now, what are you going to do? The power of the earth!”
Managi once again looked at Ash like a hunter staring at his prey and gave orders to Nidoking.
Suddenly, terrible heat came out from the ground beneath Pikachu’s feet.
At this time, Xiaozhi still spoke calmly.
“Electromagnetic levitation.”
Pikachu reacted instantly, activating electromagnetic levitation and immediately floating up into the air, avoiding the power of the earth.
Xiaozhi let out a long sigh. He and Misty still had no tacit understanding. Just now, Misty used telekinesis to control Pikachu on the back of Starjewel without even asking him. Little did she know that Pikachu could have easily avoided it by using electromagnetic buoyancy. If Pikachu had interfered when Nidoqueen attacked Starjewel, then Starjewel might not have to retreat.
Shinnosuke is not in a hurry either. Now that Pikachu is fighting Nidoqueen, even if Ash has more tricks, it is basically impossible for him to win. You know, Nidoqueen has poison and ground attributes, and Pikachu’s electric attribute moves have no effect on it.
Just as Mantori was thinking this, he felt a chill on his back as a blood-red sword was pressed against his throat.
The Electricity attribute does have no effect on the Ground attribute, but the Poison attribute also has no effect on the Steel attribute.
How could the unique sword sheath with the attributes of ghost and steel lose its combat capability because of the mud wave?
Du Jianshao had been pretending to have lost his ability to fight, waiting for the most appropriate opportunity.
It fully understood that it and Pikachu had no chance of winning against that Nidoqueen, so there was only one way to win – kill the trainer.
Nidoqueen didn’t see Manabu give any instructions for a long time, so she couldn’t help but look back at her trainer.
When Nidoqueen saw a long sword against the man’s neck, she panicked instantly.
“Take back your elf, and I will spare your life.”
At this time, Xiaozhi also slowly opened his mouth, and the expression on his face seemed to say: “I calculated all this.” This made Manato feel angry.
“Come back, Nidoqueen.”
After all, Manori is just a woman in her early 20s who just graduated from the Rocket Team training school and officially joined the Rocket Team not long ago. No matter how hard she tries to hide her panic, the fear that flashes across her face cannot be faked.
Xiaozhi sighed, found a rope everywhere, tied up Maniao, and controlled her movements.
This smooth operation made Xiaoxia drop her jaw in surprise?
Is this possible?
(After thinking about it, I decided to add another chapter. Can 61, who works so hard, get your monthly flower tickets and collections? It’s still the same. I will check the data at noon every day for the first ten days of the month. If there is an increase, I will add another chapter.)
Chapter 33: The Great Showdown in Tokiwa City (Old Version)
The other side
“Then Xiaozhi will leave it to you.”
Serena said to Xiaoxia.
At this time, Xiaozhi had already launched a fierce attack on Mantis and Nidoqueen with his sword sheath and Pikachu.
Serena knew very well that with her strength, staying here would only cause trouble for Satoshi, so it would be better for her to go and deal with those three idiots with Hiro to reduce some of the trouble for Satoshi.
After saying that, he and Hiro came to the trio who were carrying Poké Balls.
“They are just two little brats, yet they are so arrogant!”
“Little foreign girl, little green hat brat, are you ready to be defeated by us?”
“Let them see how powerful we are, meow! If we succeed, the boss will run around the courtyard happily and give the gold coins to the cat in the fireplace, meow!”
“We know this without you telling us!”*2
The trio looked at Hiro and Serena who had come before them and immediately threw out their Poké Balls.
“Go ahead! Arbok!”
“Attack! Gas bomb!”
The gas bomb appeared, immediately releasing black smoke, blurring Hiro and Serena’s vision.
“Ahem, what kind of smoke is this!”
Ah Hong immediately covered his mouth and nose, picked up Ryan, whose injuries had not yet fully healed, and ran forward aimlessly.
Serena and Joey on the side were also running in panic following Ahong. It seemed that the three members of Team Rocket had completely mastered the rhythm of the attack.
The thick smoke not only obscured the vision of Ahong and Serena, but also obscured the vision of Arbok and Gas Bomb.
In this way, Arbok and gas bombs continued to collide with the many instruments in the Pokémon Center.
As everyone ran away in fear, they actually ran into an empty closed room and locked the door. Arbok and Gas Bomb couldn’t find them for a while.
“What should I do now…”
Although she kept saying that she would come over and stop Team Rocket with Hiro because of her momentum, when Serena actually saw the destructive power of Arbok and the gas bomb, she couldn’t help but become afraid.
She grew up in school, and even though she had trained herself physically in riding an armored rhino, she didn’t even have the courage to send out her elves when she saw a powerful opponent…
Besides, Ryan’s injury hasn’t fully healed yet, otherwise he wouldn’t have been chased so badly.
Suddenly, the lights in the room went out for some reason.
“What’s going on?”
Hiro asked confused.
“Oh no! They’ve cut off the circuit. We have to use the backup generator, otherwise the injured elves in the treatment device will be doomed!”
Miss Joy was surprisingly the calmest of the three. She opened the closed door of the room and quietly stuck her head out.
Seeing that Arbok and Gas Bomb had gone to other places to search for the three people, he called Hiro and Serena to go to the engine room.
In the motor room, as Miss Joy pulled a lever, several flashes of red light produced by the Poké Ball releasing the Pokémon appeared at the motor switch, as well as the sound of the Poké Ball being opened.
“Pika Pika Pikachu…”
Pikachu appeared one after another at the power switch, continuously providing power to the switch.
“Wow, so many Pikachus!”
Serena couldn’t help but sigh.
“The Poké Ball transmission system has been forcibly activated.”
I don’t know what button Miss Joy pressed on the console, but an AI voice sounded in the room.
“Let’s teleport the Poké Ball quickly, or they can’t snatch it away!”
Miss Joy saw the current situation and realized that she and her friends had no ability to stop the trio. She could only take action to prevent them from taking away as few elves as possible.
“This is the Pokémon Center in Viridian City. I’m Miss Joy here, Molly.”
“There’s an emergency here, and we need to urgently send the Poké Ball over.”
A female voice similar to Miss Joy’s was heard on the screen: “This is the Pokémon Center in Nibi City. We understand that Poké Balls are being collected now.”
One Poké Ball after another was teleported away on the machine, but unfortunately, Arbok and Gas Bomb soon found the three people.
The door was knocked open and the Poké Balls on the wall fell to the ground.
“Your Pikachu can’t fight yet, hurry up and use the Poké Ball on the ground to fight!”
Joey said to Hiro.
Hiro looked at the Poké Balls on the ground, hurriedly picked one up, and threw it out immediately.
In fact, Ahong was also very scared. Like Serena, he mostly studied in school, and these experiences were not taught in school.
What popped out of the Poké Ball was a Pidgeot, and after facing the threat from Arbok, it immediately ran away in fear.
“You can’t beat that kind of elf.”
At this time, Musashi, Kojiro and Meowth came to the three of them, and Musashi said proudly.
“I don’t believe it. Come again!”
Hiro picked up another Poké Ball and threw it, but nothing happened.
“Why are you throwing away empty shells?”
Serena was speechless as she watched what Hong was doing.
He actually threw out an empty Poké Ball!
“Come again!”
Hiro picked up another Poké Ball and threw it out. This time it was not an empty shell, but a Rattata was indeed what popped out. It was frightened by Arbok and ran away.
This almost made Ahong’s jaw drop in anger.
Serena sighed and pretended to be calm and said, “Forget it, I’ll just delay the time.”
But for some reason, these words sounded so unconfident coming from Serena’s mouth.
“Fire Fox, please!”
Serena threw the Fire Fox’s Poké Ball with both hands, but the fear in her heart did not diminish at all.
“Ms. Joy, Hiro, you two should run! I’ll delay until Satoshi and Misty come over!”
Even though Serena was very scared, she still stood firmly in front of the two of them.
Miss Joy looked at Serena’s determined eyes, and ran out the door with Hiro, who was holding Ryan, whose injuries had not yet healed.
“Xiaojiro, I leave this little girl to you. Meow meow, follow me and chase those two people.”
Musashi said to Kojiro before turning to chase after Miss Joy and Hiro.
“Got it. Gas bomb, use the fog on that fox!”
Kojiro immediately launched an attack.
“Fire Fox, please! Use Sparks!”
Listening to the explosion in the room, Hiro couldn’t help but feel very grateful that Serena was willing to buy them time to escape.
But unfortunately, a purple snake-like elf actually followed them.
“Stop struggling in vain, you cuckolded brat, and hand over your elf!”
Musashi and Arbok looked at Hiro in front of them, then looked at the dying Pikachu, and said with confidence of victory.
“Pickup truck….”
Ryan lay on the bed and spoke slowly. To everyone’s surprise, Pikachus ran out one after another from the engine room. The number was so large that even Musashi was a little surprised.
Pikachu came to Ryan one after another and released electricity at the same time.
It is worth mentioning that there was an electric current that hit Musashi and Arbok, shocking them to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.
At this time, Ryan seemed to be resurrected with full blood.
If Xiaozhi used the system to check Ryan’s current information, he would definitely be surprised.
Now Ryan’s characteristic has turned into electric skin!
Under the electric shocks of many Pikachus, countless electric currents were actually absorbed into Ryan’s skin.
Electric blockage is caused by the fact that Pikachu or other electric-attribute Pokémon have small electric sacs or electrical storage organs that cannot store electricity, and thus cannot use electric-attribute moves.
However, Ryan, who originally trained his close combat skills and speed since childhood due to electrical resistance, has long been many times stronger than the average Pikachu. Now, he can use his skin to store electricity! His characteristics have also changed from static electricity to electric skin!
“Beep, Pikachu learned a new move, Crazy Volt.”
Hiro’s illustrated guide suddenly prompted.
Ahong looked around and actually picked up Xiaoxia’s bicycle that was electrocuted into pieces, attached it to Ryan’s body and started riding it.
Suddenly, the electrical energy originally brought to Ryan by many Pikachu merged with the electrical energy generated by Xiaozhi.
“Crazy Volt!”
Ryan reacted instantly, and the bandages on his body fell off, and his whole body was surrounded by electricity, a feeling he had never experienced before as he once had electrical blockage.
(I will add one more chapter today. For every five monthly tickets or 50 more collections, I will add another chapter. You guys are so awesome! Can you give me two more monthly tickets? I will add four chapters tomorrow.)
Chapter 34: Shut Them Up (Old Version)
Seeing Ryan like this, Musashi couldn’t help but feel something was wrong.
The curly-haired Pikachu wearing an electric jacket rushed towards Musashi and Arbok.
In an instant, powerful electricity swept through the entire Pokemon Center. This was the electricity of more than a hundred Pikachus plus the electricity provided by Hiro using the bicycle, so it was not surprising that he could perform such a move.
Xiaozhi had just caught the real bird and was thinking of going to see how Serena and Ahong were doing, but he didn’t expect to see this scene.
The entire roof of the Elf Center was destroyed by this terrible electricity.
Xiaozhi’s Pikachu was also very shocked that he could actually deliver such a terrifying attack.
Serena and Fox, who were inseparable from Kojiro and the gas bomb in the engine room, couldn’t help but be attracted by this terrifying momentum.
At this time, Kojiro actually launched a sneak attack.
“Sludge bombs, gas bombs!”
In an instant, the gas bomb sprayed countless sludge towards the fire fox.
“Iron Tail!”
But just as the sludge bomb was about to hit the fire fox, a yellow electric mouse appeared, and its hardened tail split the sludge in two.
To Serena’s surprise, Xiaozhi arrived in time and saved her from her embarrassing situation.
With Xiaozhi joining in, the trio was quickly controlled by several people.
“Have you solved everything over there?”
Only then did Xiaoxia walk towards the crowd.
“Solved. What about that woman? Are you keeping an eye on her?”
“It’s tied up, don’t worry.”
Misty’s affirmative answer did not dispel Xiaozhi’s concerns. Sure enough, when everyone arrived at the room that controlled the Mantori, it was already empty.
“Didn’t I ask you to watch her?”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but feel a little angry and questioned Xiaoxia.
Xiaoxia heard Xiaozhi’s impatient tone and retorted: “Didn’t you tie the rope? Would this happen if you tied it tighter?”
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Miss Joy immediately came out to mediate: “Neither of you should say anything to each other. You both have problems. Our top priority now is to send those three idiots to the police station.”
Seeing that what Miss Joy said made sense, the two of them had no choice but to shut up.
“Hey! You little brat with a sullen face! You’d better be careful next time!” When Musashi saw everyone coming, he said to Xiaozhi who was walking in front.
“You’d better understand this. If you offend us, you’ll be in big trouble!” Kojiro said with pride.
“That’s right, Meow. If you want to catch someone, just catch the woman with the real bird!” Meow Meow said very arrogantly, with a look of defiance in his eyes.
“Three idiots, do you have any brains?”
Xiaozhi didn’t even raise his head, but in the end he looked at the three brainless idiots with contempt, shook his head, and said, “It’s impressive that you didn’t give up your harsh words despite your strength. If you had the same strength as that woman, I wouldn’t say anything. It’s a pity that you are just three big-talking idiots.”
Xiaozhi changed his mind again and said, “If you are as capable of escaping from me as that woman, I will let you go.”
“Asshole! We have already escaped, do we still need you to let us go?”*3
After subduing the trio, Xiaozhi and Pikachu gave them a burst of electric therapy, and finally forced them to confess the storage location of the Pokémon they had previously stolen and their base in Viridian City.
“Little brat, why are you so selfish! Have you ever considered our feelings? You are so cruel!” Musashi was particularly unwilling and began to talk nonsense.
“That’s right! You actually used such a cruel method to force us to tell us our base camp. Can you become a trainer like this? Think about it carefully!” Kojiro made Xiaozhi speechless. He even started to morally blackmail Xiaozhi without thinking about who is the bad guy.
“What a psycho.”
Xiaozhi shook his head, not even bothering to look at them this time, and casually said to Pikachu: “Pikachu, tell them to shut up, it’s best if they can’t say anything.”
“Pika! Pika Pikachu!”
Pikachu agreed, stopped eating ketchup, put on a smirk, and immediately released a mild electric shock.
The trio continued to feel pain that was continuous but not enough to make them faint, and they screamed in agony.
“Ahhhhhhh!!! No! Stop it now!”*3
The trio was electrocuted by Pikachu and black smoke came out of their mouths. At this time, Meowth, who was a Pokémon, rolled his eyes and fainted.
I guess Miaomiao must be very happy. These two guys deserved to be electrocuted for talking nonsense, but he didn’t say anything.
This made the people watching from the sidelines complain in their hearts: Although they knew they were the bad guys, why did they feel… a little pitiful.
In a corner where no one was paying attention, Miss Joy from Tokiwa City, Molly, started talking to Hiro.
“Is your Pikachu your starter Pokémon?”
Molly asked Hiro.
“Oh…you mean Ryan? Yes, he is my starter Pokémon.”
“If I checked correctly, your Pikachu… Ryan had electrical blockage before, right?”
Molly asked again.
Hiro nodded and said very cheerfully, “Yes, but he is fine now.”
“No… What I want to ask is, you could have chosen a better Pokémon, why did you choose this Pikachu that can’t release electricity?”
Molly asked hesitantly. Looking at Ryan who slowly lowered his head, Molly felt a little regretful because she knew that this question was not polite.
“Then let me ask you…” Hiro paused and continued, “Why did you choose to become Miss Joy?”
Molly didn’t seem to expect that the topic would come to her, and she answered subconsciously: “It is the responsibility of our Joy family to save the injured elves.”
Hiro shook his head. “What about those wild Pokémon that were not delivered? If they get hurt, who will save them?”
“Just like my Ryan, he has never been firmly chosen because of his electrical resistance. Everyone wants him to accept this fate. Everyone tells him that he can’t use electrical moves. Everyone gives up on him. But when I met him, I didn’t want him to accept this fate.”
Ah Hong’s words made Molly slightly stunned, and there seemed to be more admiration in her eyes when she looked at Ah Hong.
This trainer, who is not very powerful and even a little reckless, actually loves Pokémon so much.
Ah Hong’s words stirred up a storm in Mo Li’s heart.
“Then let me ask you…Why did you choose to be Miss Joy?”
“What about those injured elves who were not sent to the elf center?”
These two words of Ahong echoed in Molly’s heart.
Chapter 35 Leaving Viridian City (Old Version)
With such a big commotion, Miss Junsha had been waiting behind the door for information from the Elf Center. After the explosion, the Elf Center fell into calm. Now Miss Junsha led a group of police officers into the Elf Center.
“Oh my, what is this?” Seeing that Xiaozhi was giving electric therapy to three people, Junsha was a little shocked at first, and even thought that Xiaozhi was the mastermind of the incident at the Pokémon Center. But when Junsha took a look at the faces of Musashi and Kojiro, Miss Junsha was once again shocked by Xiaozhi’s current behavior.
Imagine that you are a police officer responding to a bank robbery. Upon entering the bank, you see the wanted criminal being abused by a bank customer.
Everyone will be stunned.
“What is this? Team Rocket!”
“Xiaozhi, stop first.”
Miss Joy Molly quickly stopped Xiaozhi who wanted to continue giving electric therapy to several people.
“Are you Team Rocket on the wanted poster?”
Junsha came up to the Team Rocket trio and asked uncertainly.
Because at this time the three of them were indeed electrocuted beyond recognition, but Meow Meow next to them was so recognizable.
“Yes! It’s us!”*2
Musashi and Kojiro shook their faces, and the black spots on their faces disappeared, which made Xiaozhi slightly stunned. What kind of skill is this? Then the trio… No, to be precise, Musashi and Kojiro answered proudly, as if they were not tied up now.
“Ms. Junsha, I have already dealt with these three people. All you need to do next is to make them spend the rest of their lives in jail.”
Xiaozhi came to Miss Junsha and said expressionlessly.
Miss Junsha also recognized Xiaozhi at this time. Isn’t this the trainer with Pikachu? I didn’t expect this guy to be so powerful.
“Little devil, just wait for us!”
“See if we won’t settle the score with you when we get out!”
“The organization will definitely avenge us, meow.”
I don’t know when Meowth woke up, and the trio kept scolding Xiaozhi, but now Miss Junsha was in front of them, Xiaozhi couldn’t shock them, so he had to remain silent.
Xiaozhi was too lazy to continue arguing with them, but Miss Junsha couldn’t help but glared at the trio when she heard the three people cursing, each word more unpleasant than the last. They dared to threaten others in front of the police. Did they think of herself as a decoration?
“Shut up! I’m a police officer. If you dare to threaten others in front of me, you are committing a crime of aggravated crime. You can prepare to go to jail!”
After hearing this and seeing Junsha’s angry face, the trio immediately didn’t dare to continue speaking and just looked at Xiaozhi fiercely.
Xiaozhi ignored the looks of the trio, pulled the corner of Miss Junsha’s clothes, and said in a feigned fear: “Miss Junsha, they are threatening me, I am so scared, please don’t let them out.”
“No! That’s not how you treated us!” X3
After actively assisting Miss Junsha in searching Team Rocket’s base, they recovered almost all of the Pokémon they had stolen. But there was one thing that made Xiaozhi very uneasy, which was that they had searched the entire Viridian City but could not find the woman named Manbird.
Afterwards, the Alliance gave 300,000 Alliance Coins to Satoshi and the other two as a thank you for their assistance in this case. After Serena and Misty refused on the grounds that they did not contribute much to the event, the 300,000 prize money was divided equally between Satoshi and Hiro, with each receiving 150,000.
Xiaozhi transferred half of the bonus to the family card. It was not easy for Hanako to manage the household alone, so Xiaozhi of course subsidized the household expenses within his ability.
With the remaining money, Xiaozhi bought some different Poké Balls, because the system achievements might be used in the future, and the appropriate type of ball can also provide a comfortable environment for the Pokémon.
Xiaozhi bought an energy cube maker. As for the raw material berries for energy cubes, Xiaozhi can apply for them from Miare University, and then have them delivered to him through the Kanto Alliance using Pokémon Express, so that he can get free berries.
Energy blocks are essential for breeding elves, and are also necessary foods for elves to quickly obtain nutrition. Good energy blocks can even affect the power of elves’ skills, growth and development, and appearance.
But the finished product of this kind of thing is very expensive, so Xiaozhi simply made it himself.
Then Xiaozhi upgraded the backpack capacity for himself and Serena and bought a new upgrade core. The original space of only 1 cubic meter was now a full 5 cubic meters.
Then he bought Pokémon food for Pikachu and Dujianshao, as well as Pikachu’s favorite yogurt and ketchup.
When it comes to Pokémon, Ash is definitely not stingy. He will give the Pokémon the best even if he himself doesn’t have enough to eat.
Before leaving Viridian City, Xiaozhi said goodbye to Ahong. It is worth mentioning that Miss Joy from the Pokémon Center actually chose to travel with Ahong.
Yes, because of what Hong said, Molly realized that she could not treat the Pokémon outdoors by just staying at the Poké Center, and could not send the Pokémon to the Poké Center.
So she made a decision, which was to go out traveling, to gain experience, and to heal all the injured elves she met.
As for Misty, she just followed Xiaozhi. Xiaozhi didn’t know what she wanted to do, but since she was willing to follow him, he just followed her.
Just like that, Xiaozhi left Viridian City and headed towards Nibe City.
Between Viridian City and Nibi City is Route 2 and Viridian Forest. After leaving Viridian City, Satoshi and the other two strolled along Route 2.
In a cell at the police station, two people and a cat were sitting on the ground drawing circles out of boredom.
“Why did you lose to the mouse when you were the cat?”
Musashi looked at Meow Meow and sighed, as if summing up this failure.
“That curly-haired Pikachu is no ordinary creature, meow…”
Miaomiao also shook her head and began to explain.
At first, the three of them looked down on the injured curly-haired Pikachu, but in the end, they failed because of the electric mouse.
“Nothing is more extraordinary than ordinary…”
Kojiro nodded, seeming to agree with Meow Meow’s point of view.
The three of them looked at each other.
“Could it be…”
“Could it be that…”
“Maybe…”
“That might be it! That Pikachu must be a weirdo, meow!”
“You three, reflect on your actions!”
When Miss Junsha saw the three of them like this, she became angry again.
“Yes!”*3
“This is the Pokémon Center in Nibi City. All the Pokémon sent from Viridian City have been collected.”
Miss Joy’s face appeared on the screen.
“Thank you. By the way, I will be the one to take over the connection with Tokiwa City from now on.”
A Miss Joy, who looked a little old, was sitting in the ruins of the Pokémon Center in Viridian City.
“Did Sister Molly still choose to go on a trip?”
Miss Joy from Nibi City asked middle-aged Joy.
Middle-aged Joey nodded and sighed.
She is Molly’s mother and is now temporarily responsible for Molly’s work handover.
“They have already left Viridian City and are heading towards Nibi City, along with that young boy. Hopefully, everything goes well for them.”
“There’s the Viridian Forest ahead…”
Molly’s mother was obviously a little worried.
But Miss Junsha came to Molly’s mother’s side at some point, patted her on the shoulder, and said, “It’s okay. Changpan Forest won’t be a problem for those children.”
Molly’s mother let out a long sigh and nodded.
“That’s right, there will be no problem!”
(Molly is a new character in Pokémon Horizon. A small spoiler: Hiro will have interactions with the characters in Pokémon Horizon later.)
(That’s all for this morning. I’ll continue writing if I have time. I’ll try to update four chapters today.)
Chapter 36: Authentic? Cross? (Old Version)
After Xiaozhi said goodbye to Ahong, he walked out of Viridian City with Serena.
Route 2 connects Viridian City and Viridian Forest. This road does not have any special features, except for a few battle venues. Trainers passing by here often make appointments for battles before entering Viridian Forest.
“Wow, Xiaozhi, there are so many trainers over there, let’s go over and take a look.”
Serena pulled Xiaozhi and said to him.
Xiaozhi took a look at the trainers who were fighting over there and it seemed that there was a Pokémon he had never seen before, so he agreed.
“All right.”
But Xiaoxia, who was standing by, didn’t hear the two talking. Seeing Xiaozhi and Serena straying from the road, she asked, “Where are you going?”
At this time, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but want to tease Xiaoxia, and said: “We are going back to Pallet Town. The journey is too tiring.”
Xiaozhi almost burned out Xiaoxia’s CPU when he said this.
But then he thought it was impossible, so he immediately followed the two of them.
“What? If you want to fight, just fight. Why are you talking about these nonsense…”
Xiaoxia complained to Xiaozhi speechlessly.
Xiaozhi ignored Xiaoxia as usual and started watching the battle on the battlefield.
On the battle field, there was a confrontation between a Pokémon that Xiaozhi had never seen in real life and a Goryeo.
This Pokémon is Lycanroc. Lycanroc has a night form and a day form, which can be obtained by evolving Lycanroc at night and during the day respectively.
The Pokémon in front of Xiaozhi is the night form of Lycanroc.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frown.
This Lycanthropy is very strong. Even though its attributes are restrained by Hao Li, Lycanthropy still suppresses Hao Li.
When looking in the direction of the Lycanroc trainer, Xiaozhi actually saw a familiar person – Masamune, the one who even sat in the same examination room with Xiaozhi during the level test!
To Xiaozhi’s surprise, Masamune’s head now had an orange wolf tail, and there was a necklace around his neck, which was completely different from his previous outfit.
Soon, Hao Li was beaten back by Lycanroku. After hearing the referee’s words, Xiaozhi was slightly stunned.
“Gourmet lost his ability to fight, and Lycanroku won, so the winner is Cross from Viridian City!”
Made a mistake? This was Xiaozhi’s first thought.
At this time, Cross also noticed Xiaozhi and kept staring at him without any hesitation.
At this time, Xiaozhi was completely sure that this person was the original Masamune he met in Pallet Town, because eyes never lie.
When he looked at Xiaozhi, there was a hint of shock in his eyes at first, but he quickly regained his composure.
But Xiaozhi accurately captured that shock.
With the departure of Trainer Gou Li, Xiaozhi came to the opposite side of Cross.
“It’s been a long time, Masamune-kun… No, I should call you Cross now, right?”
Xiaozhi asked, as if he wanted to clarify the identity of the person in front of him.
“Inochi, long time no see. I wonder what level the former No. 1 is at now…” Cross paused when he saw the Pikachu on Xiaozhi’s shoulder, and continued, “He actually brought such a rubbish Pokémon like Pikachu. It seems that the former No. 1 is not that good now.”
Cross kept talking about being the first place, and it seemed that he was still brooding over the fact that he had always been suppressed by Xiaozhi. He even made personal attacks on Xiaozhi.
When Pikachu heard this, he immediately became unhappy and shouted angrily at the other party.
“I was able to suppress you before, and I can still do it now, and ah…”
Xiaozhi paused, his eyes changed from sharp to playful, and continued: “I’m not the one who shed tears during the level test.”
There was a flicker of fluctuation in Cross’s eyes. He didn’t expect that Xiaozhi still remembered this matter, but he didn’t get angry. For a young man with such a strong desire to win, he had long wanted to compete with Xiaozhi.
“I’ll send out Pikachu and show you who’s trash.”
Xiaozhi and Pikachu looked at each other and immediately entered into a fighting state, while Cross curled his lips and said, “You use trash Pokémon to fight me, so I will use trash to fight you too.”
After saying that, Cross took back Lycanroc and threw out another Poké Ball.
In an instant, a little orange dragon with a flaming tail appeared in front of everyone.
Charmander! This should be the Pokémon he got from Professor Oak after getting an A in the level test.
“Did he just say his elf is trash?”
“How can such a person be qualified to be a trainer?”
Suddenly, the trainers who heard Cross’s words couldn’t help but denounce Cross.
“Shut up! How I evaluate my elf is my business, what does it have to do with you?”
Cross smiled disdainfully and continued to ask everyone: “Not only is this little Charmander useless, your little Pokémon are also useless, otherwise why is there not even one that can fight with me?”
“I’m using Lycanroc to fight you because I’m giving you face. How can a rubbish Pokémon like Pikachu fight against my Lycanroc? It can only fight against this useless Charmander.
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but look at the little dragon opposite with pity, actually working for the trainer who slandered him…
“Have you swallowed feces? You’ve been spewing garbage since just now.”
Xiaozhi looked at Cross with great disdain, the look that one gives to a weakling.
“Xiaozhi, come on, don’t lose to this kind of person!”
“Ash, attack the trainer directly! Beat him to death!”
Serena and Misty cheered for Xiaozhi from the side.
Of course, although Xiaozhi also wanted to do what Xiaoxia suggested, he thought about it and gave up. After all, there were so many people watching, and it would be bad if Miss Junsha came.

Chapter 37: Instant Kill of Phoenix King (Old Version)
The battle began and Cross attacked without hesitation.
“Use the alloy claws, you useless bastard! If you can’t beat a rat, you won’t have dinner tonight!”
Cross ordered.
Charmander looked at Cross with some fear, then immediately took action, hardening its claws and attacking Pikachu.
“Iron Tail.”
There was no expression on Xiaozhi’s face. He couldn’t help but want to laugh when he saw Charmander looking like it had never been trained.
“when!”
As the steel tail and the alloy claws collided, a sound of metal collision was heard instantly.
But what surprised Pikachu was that he was able to suppress Charmander with just a little effort.
“Press it down!”
Xiaozhi ordered.
Pikachu instantly pressed all his strength towards Charmander, and Charmander was pressed directly to the ground.
“Electric ball, it’s over.”
Xiaozhi said casually.
In an instant, an electric ball appeared on the tail of Pikachu, who was holding down Charmander. The moment it hit Charmander, Charmander lost its ability to fight.
The scene before them couldn’t help but make the trainers in the audience burst into laughter.
Instant kill. Kroos was killed instantly because he underestimated his opponent.
There was some disbelief on Cross’s face, but he still used the Poké Ball to take back Charmander.
“Even with Pikachu’s racial value, he can’t beat her. Trash is trash. It’s really shameful.”
Cross complained while holding Charmander’s Poké Ball.
“You are the one who is embarrassed.” Xiaozhi said as he called Pikachu back.
Cross turned his head away, wanting to leave the scene, but Xiaozhi continued, “You misjudged the level of the Pokémon and lost the game with your arrogance. What’s more, you still talk about race value? Let me tell you, there are no useless Pokémon, only useless trainers. Trainers like you who are brainless and self-willed, you’d better be careful in the future. I will beat you up every time I see you.”
As Xiaozhi spoke, everyone couldn’t help but applaud, especially the sentence “There are no useless Pokémon, only useless Trainers.” which was deeply engraved in everyone’s heart.
Cross walked further and further away, holding the Poké Ball in his hand tighter and tighter.
It must be that Charmander is too weak. If I had used Lycanroc, I wouldn’t have lost to him. That must be it!
I must capture more powerful fire-attribute Pokémon!
Cross made a secret decision in his mind.
“Yinengzhi, just wait for me!”
Just as Cross was muttering, a silver-haired boy and a girl in pink came to Cross.
“You saw that Xiaozhi again? I mean, why are you so obsessed with her?”
The silver-haired boy asked Cross.
“My former name was Zhengzong, and I was in the same class as him. I have always been a genius, but when I met him, it was like I had met my nemesis.”
“So later I changed my name and went to a place outside the alliance – Alola Island to practice. As long as I can surpass that person, I am willing to do anything!”
At this time, the pink-dressed girl slowly asked, “Why didn’t you send out the Werewolf or other elves? This way, we might not have lost.”
Cross was furious upon hearing this and yelled at the girl, “What do you know! He used a Pokémon like Pikachu to humiliate me. How can I use my strongest Lycanroc to fight him? With the racial stats of a Pokémon like Pikachu, it’s just luck that he can train to be like him!”
The girl sighed. If she and Cross were not classmates at the Alola Island School and were asked by the teacher to travel to Kanto with Cross, she would not want to bother with this guy.
On the other side, Xiaozhi was walking on Route 2 with Serena and Xiaoxia, talking about this guy Cross.
“I didn’t know that guy very well before, but he has always hated me just because I had better grades than him. Now he has even changed his name. It’s ridiculous.”
Xiaozhi said this expressionlessly, while Xiaoxia and Serena were a little surprised.
“So there really are people like this in this world…”
“You really should have listened to me and attacked the trainer directly. That guy deserved a beating!”
Serena and Xiaoxia kept talking about Cross, as if they had already regarded him as a clown.
But at this moment, a large colorful bird flew across the sky, immediately attracting the attention of Xiaozhi and the other two.
(“Beep, beep, the breath of the first-level divine beast Phoenix King is detected, please pay attention.”)
The system’s prompt made Xiaozhi’s eyes widen.
Phoenix King? How is that possible?
But when they saw that the trace left by the colorful bird’s flight had turned into a beautiful rainbow, Xiaozhi and the other two were stunned.
“So beautiful…”
“What kind of elf is that? It’s so beautiful…”
As girls, Serena and Misty would naturally be attracted by this picturesque scene, but Xiaozhi was brainstorming at this time.
(“The Phoenix King’s token, the Rainbow Feather, has been detected. Host, may I know its location?”)
The system prompt sounded again, and Xiaozhi said without hesitation: “Yes.”
Although he didn’t know what it was used for, it was a token of Ho-Oh after all. Even if he had to uphold the principle of not letting go of something, Xiaozhi had to get the Rainbow Feather today.
(“Locating Rainbow Feather…”)
(“The Rainbow Feather has been successfully located. Please query the host.”)
When the system located the information of the Rainbow Feather in Xiaozhi’s mind, Xiaozhi could not help but be speechless.
On my hat
Xiaozhi took off the Rainbow Feather, and the system prompt sounded again instantly.
(“It is detected that the host has obtained the token of the divine beast. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the token of the Phoenix King – the Rainbow Feather, and obtaining the ladder points +7000”)
7000 points? That’s too much!
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but think that usually he only got 100 points for defeating an ordinary trainer, but he didn’t expect that he would be so lucky today.
Now Xiaozhi’s points have reached 13,000 points, and even Xiaozhi plans to find an opportunity to go to the mall to spend some money and look for skills that can make his Pokémon stronger.
“Ah! Xiaozhi, what is this? It’s so beautiful!”
Serena saw the Rainbow Feather in Xiaozhi’s hand and immediately asked.
“Uh…it must be that big colorful bird that accidentally fell down and landed on my head.”
Are you kidding? A Pokémon like Ho-Oh would leave a token of its own? And it happened to be on his head. Although Xiaozhi didn’t know why Ho-Oh gave him the token of the legendary beast, he believed that there must be a reason for it. In the future, maybe he will have an intersection with this first-level god…
(I wonder if anyone has guessed the identity of Masamune correctly. If you are really curious about who this person is, you can go watch the movie: It’s You. Because this movie is related to Ho-oh, I wrote about Cross and Ho-oh’s token together.)
(No one really thinks I’m going to give the Rainbow Feather to Hiro, right?…)

Chapter 38 Goodbye to the Marmoset (Old Version)
This is the Evergreen Forest. Due to the overabundance of nutrients in the trees, it is not only dark during the day, but also at night.
After passing Route 2, Xiaozhi and his three companions went directly into the Viridian Forest.
“It’s so dark…”
“That’s right, this is the Viridian Forest, there are so many black bugs!”
Serena and Misty were on Xiaozhi’s left and right, and the two girls were obviously very scared of the current environment.
But Xiaozhi felt that the two girls were being very pretentious. After all, they were traveling, and it was only a matter of time before they encountered such an environment.
It is worth mentioning that just after the three of them entered the Viridian Forest, Pikachu had been sniffing the air in the forest on Ash’s shoulder, as if there was a familiar smell.
Xiaozhi ignored it and just thought that Pikachu really liked the fresh air in the forest.
But just as the three were moving forward, Pikachu suddenly jumped off Satoshi’s shoulder, causing everyone to stop.
“Pikachu, what’s wrong with you?”
Xiaozhi asked in confusion, but Pikachu didn’t reply to Xiaozhi, but just sniffed something in the air.
Suddenly, Pikachu seemed to have found something and immediately ran into a bush.
Xiaozhi immediately followed, leaving Xiaoxia and Serena looking at each other in fear.
“Hey! Xiaozhi, wait for us!”
Misty and Serena then realized that Ash had run away by himself. Looking at the darkness around them, they couldn’t help but feel a little scared, but they immediately followed Ash and Pikachu.
Xiaozhi followed Pikachu through the swaying grass, in which was a fat, big green caterpillar gnawing on a pile of fruits.
Pikachu stopped and saw that there was a green caterpillar in front of him. He couldn’t help but express his confusion and scratched his head.
At this time, Xiaoxia and Serena arrived late.
“Xiaozhi, don’t run away suddenly by yourself…”
“That’s right, how could you do this… ah! There’s a bug!”
Serena and Misty followed Satoshi here and wanted to complain, but when they saw the scene in front of them, Serena was so scared that she grabbed Satoshi’s arm, and Misty just grabbed Satoshi with her whole body.
As girls, both of them have a natural aversion to insects.
“Pikachu, what’s wrong with this green caterpillar?”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but ask.
Originally, this Caterpillar seemed to be quite large, and Xiaozhi was planning to capture it, but after seeing the Caterpillar’s statistics, he couldn’t help but shook his head.
Very poor talent, elite potential.
The qualifications of insect-attribute Pokémon are generally very poor, so if you want to cultivate powerful insect-attribute Pokémon, especially weak Pokémon like Caterpillars and Unicorn Beetles, you either have sufficient resources or you have enough luck.
Xiaozhi is well aware of this. Even for Pikachu, who has infinite talent and potential, Xiaozhi put a lot of effort in training him. After all, the racial value of a Pokémon like Pikachu is pitifully low. To have the current strength, Xiaozhi’s efforts, poured in resources, and enough luck are all indispensable.
Misty’s action made Serena frown slightly. After all, she didn’t know when Misty started to travel with the two of them. But Serena and Satoshi didn’t mind it, because Satoshi was not very good at speaking. When he first traveled with Serena, the two of them didn’t have much in common, and they would often walk together for a long time without saying anything. After arriving in Viridian City, the team became much more lively in the two days that Misty followed. Misty often introduced wild Pokémon to Serena like an older sister, and often gave Satoshi constructive suggestions for his training. So in fact, the two of them had no objection if Misty followed and wanted to travel with them.
Serena also felt that it would be difficult for Misty to like Satoshi given her personality, so she treated Misty as an older sister.
After all, Xiaoxia is twenty years old now and is really the older sister of the two, but Xiaoxia’s behavior now makes Serena feel a little uncomfortable.
But when she saw Xiaozhi pat her hands and signaled her to let go, she immediately felt relieved.
“I don’t like bugs…”
Xiaoxia seemed to realize her outrageous behavior and immediately let go of Xiaozhi and said.
At this moment, a heavy sound of footsteps appeared in the ears of the three people, and Pikachu ran towards the footsteps as if he had discovered a new continent.
The three learned their lesson this time and followed immediately. Unexpectedly, the one that appeared before them was a Pokémon that Xiaozhi was very familiar with – the Bulbasaur!
“Could this guy be…”
Xiaozhi immediately recalled the scene when he met Pikachu two years ago. At that time, the little guy was just a Pichu, living with the marsupials and living in the marsupials’ pouches.
Later, as the little Bulbasaur and Pikachu continued to grow, the mother Bulbasaur gradually could not bear the weight of the two Pokémon. At that time, it met Ash, and when it parted with the mother Bulbasaur and the little Bulbasaur, it evolved into Pikachu.
At this time, the marsupial seemed not to notice the arrival of everyone. It was carrying a large pile of fruits with a little marsupial.
As the marsupial and the brooding marsupial put the fruits in front of the caterpillar, many elves suddenly jumped out of the grass.
There’s Rattata, Pidgeot, Beetle, Caterpillar, Paras, and even a few Pikachus.
At the instruction of the marsupial, the elves picked out their favorite fruits from the fruit pile.
“Pika Pika! (Xiaodai, is that you, Xiaodai?)”
Although it was a question, Pikachu’s tone was very firm. Of course, only Ash could understand what it was saying.
The marsupial only saw Xiaozhi and the other two at this time, then looked at Pikachu, staring at him for a long time before realizing that the person in front of him was actually his childhood playmate.
“Ah! (Xiao Pi, long time no see!)”
The marsupial picked up Pikachu and looked very happy.
Just as the two were reminiscing about the past, a little marsupial came to the feet of the marsupial, patted its legs, and pointed to the end of the fruit tree.
At this time, there was a toucan next to the fruit pile, and what surprised Xiaozhi was that this toucan was the same one he met on Route 1.
At this time, the Toucan was snatching the fruits from the Pokémons, and the Marsupial looked over, and then its gentle face became sharp, and a light wave gathered in its mouth, the power of which scared Xiaozhi.
Destroy the death light!
This is a special move of general attributes. Wild Pokémon rarely use it unless it is a critical moment, because after using the special move, they will become stiff and unable to move, which often gives the opponent an opportunity to take advantage.
The destructive death ray hit the toucan accurately. The toucan immediately felt the pain, let out an unpleasant cry, and immediately ran away in fear.
This is the character of the toucan family – bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
After the toucan flew away, the elves happily ate the fruits together again.
(I will only write one chapter this morning because I had to go out early for training.)
(I still owe two chapters for the monthly ticket. I won’t pay it back today. There should only be two chapters in the afternoon.)
Chapter 39: Hiro and the Toucan (Old Version)
Pokémon Burning Wisdom: Chapter 39: Hong and Toucan
After the marsupial successfully drove away the toucan, peace returned to everyone.
“I see, so you’re taking care of these elves?”
Xiaozhi walked up to the bagmon and asked.
The marsupial stared at Xiaozhi for a moment, and soon recognized that this was the human who took Pikachu away. He smiled and nodded.
“I didn’t expect you to grow so big. This is my travel companions, Misty and Serena.” Xiaozhi introduced the marsupial, but after looking around, he found that there was only one marsupial here, so he asked again: “Where are your tribesmen?”
When the marsupial heard Xiaozhi ask this, its mood quickly became depressed.
“Ah… (They were taken to the wild wilderness by humans. Everyone wants to go there because there is plenty of food, but I think being able to live freely in the forest is what I want.)”
The Marmoset answered Xiaozhi. Although the words were very casual, one could feel the loneliness in the Marmoset from the bottom of its heart from its tone.
After all, they are social elves, and they will naturally feel lonely if they leave the tribe where they have lived since childhood.
Pikachu quickly sensed the marsupial’s distress and touched its leg.
At this time, the little marsupial seemed to have eaten enough and slowly crawled into the marsupial’s pouch.
This marsupial is not just big, even its small counterpart is about the same size as Pikachu.
So does this little marsupial have fighting abilities?
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but think.
Looking back, the wild elves had eaten their fill and the gathered group dispersed again.
They cannot survive forever under the protection of marsupials, and sooner or later they will have to return to their own food chain.
Looking at the elves leaving, the marsupial couldn’t help but lower its head again, seeming to be in a very depressed mood.
Ever since leaving the tribe, even though he has adapted to fighting under the attacks of many ferocious wild Pokémon, his docile and lonely character cannot be changed.
“Could it be that… this child collects berries because he is afraid of loneliness, and wants the elves to accompany him to reduce his loneliness?”
Xiaoxia stared at the somewhat lonely eyes of the marsupial beast and spoke.
After all, eyes can’t lie. After the elves returned to their own tribe, the marsupial couldn’t hide the loneliness in its eyes.
Serena pulled Xiaozhi’s arm and said, “Xiaozhi, it’s so pitiful, can you let it go with us?”
“Pika Pika! (Xiaodai, if you are really lonely, you can just come with us! Xiaozhiren is very kind!)”
At this time, Pikachu pointed at Xiaozhi and invited the leopard to join the team.
Xiaozhi also nodded and said, “If you don’t mind, it might be a good idea to come with us.”
The Marmoset shook its head and rejected Ash and Pikachu’s invitation to join the team.
Seeing the curious eyes of Pikachu and Xiaozhi, the leopard couldn’t help but say: “Ah… (Do you remember the toucan just now? It is a well-known bully around here. If I am gone, no one can restrain it…)”
Xiaozhi frowned. This Toucan not only hurts people, but also steals food from other Pokémon. Isn’t this a typical gangster?
Xiaozhi made a decision and asked the marsupial: “If I drive that toucan out of the forest, will you be willing to follow me?”
The Marsupial couldn’t help but be slightly stunned, and nodded. If there was no Toucan bullying the weak wild Pokémon, it would seem that it would be a good choice for him to travel with Xiaozhi.
“Did you hear that, Pikachu? Come back to life.”
Ash and Pikachu immediately became eager to fight. This marsupial seemed to be quite powerful, and was also a good friend of Pikachu. If Ash could capture it, it would be a good choice for the team.
“Xiaozhi, don’t be impatient! Wait for us!”
“That’s right, the Toucan won’t run out of this forest anytime soon, don’t run! Hey!”
Xiaozhi and Pikachu quickly checked the surroundings, but there was no sign of the Toucan.
This caused disaster for Xiaoxia and Serena behind them.
Xiaozhi stopped and closed his eyes, and the world instantly turned into countless wave feedbacks.
When he opened his eyes, Xiaozhi’s head was already covered with sweat.
“Ah! Are you fighting him? Let’s go!”
Xiaozhi sighed, then slowly called Xiaoxia and Serena, and slowly walked towards some bushes with Pikachu.
Serena and Misty were no longer confused. Xiaozhi was extremely anxious just now, but now he was calm and composed. Why was that?
“Don’t worry, that toucan is going to die.”
“Why?”*2
The two girls asked in confusion.
“Because someone is here to seek revenge on it.”
“Hiro, Ryan, come on!”
Although Molly’s voice was not soft, it was very quiet, which was her awareness as a medical worker.
At this time, Ahong and Ryan were already confronting the toucan, and now they had confident smiles on their faces.
In the past, Ryan could only run away when he saw Toucan because he couldn’t use electric-attribute moves, but now things are different.
At this time, Xiaozhi and the other two slowly came to Molly’s side.
“Hiro, I leave it to you, defeat this bully!”
Xiaoxia then understood what Xiaozhi meant and immediately said to Ahong.
Toucan was in bad luck today. When he tried to steal the fruits from the tree, he was hit by a blow from the Beastialoo and was hit by the death ray. When he came to steal the trainer’s Pokémon food, he met Hiro and Ryan again.
But when he saw the familiar Ahong and Ryan, Toucan immediately became full of confidence.
Isn’t this a defeated opponent? It still remembers that it almost killed Hiro on Route 1.
“Ryan, lightning flash!”
Hiro ordered without hesitation.
Ryan reacted instantly, seemingly a few seconds faster than Ash’s Pikachu’s flash of lightning, and his whole body flashed with yellow light, symbolizing electricity, instead of white light.
The electrical skin property is activated, and in a flash the normal attribute changes into the electrical attribute.
The Toucan didn’t seem to expect Ryan to be so fast. It crashed into it almost instantly, and a tingling sensation appeared.
This toucan is a leader toucan. To become a leader, it must have abilities different from its peers.
It reacted instantly, its whole body spun, and its sharp beak attacked Ryan.
Drill Peck! It is extremely powerful, but few Toucans can learn it. Currently, the Alliance has found that there are less than 30 Toucans that can use such a powerful move as Drill Peck. This shows the combat strength of this Toucans.
Xiaozhi immediately pulled up the information of the Toucan, and sure enough, it was extremely talented and had champion-level potential. What surprised Xiaozhi the most was that the characteristic of this Toucan was actually a mutant characteristic – malicious pecking!
When using beak-type moves, speed up and steal the opponent’s items.
The characteristics of elves can be mutated through acquired mutations, just like this toucan. In the battle among countless toucans, only he stood out and became the leader, and in the process, his own characteristics also mutated successfully.
But it’s not only Toucan that has mutated characteristics, there’s also Ryan. The electric skin can not only turn general attribute moves into electric attributes, but it can also use the electricity in the skin to add electric current to melee moves during close combat.
Hiro’s fighting style is very wild, he chooses to fight head-on. If Satoshi were to lead the attack, he would never attack so recklessly. He might choose to dodge and then use Iron Tail and 100,000 Volts to counterattack.
All the electricity in Ryan’s body gathered together, and an even stronger electric current wrapped around his whole body, rushing towards the Toucan.
The aftermath of the explosion caused by the head-on confrontation between Crazy Volt and Pecking Drill caused several trees to fall down.
Why is it that every time this guy fights, there’s an explosion?
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but complain in his heart. The last time Ahong fought, the Pokémon Center was blown up, and this time a piece of flat land appeared in the Viridian Forest.
The sun finally shines on the once pitch-black Evergreen Forest.
On the battlefield, Ryan and Toucan were facing each other breathlessly.
Finally, the toucan no longer had the strength to flap its wings and fell to the ground, with mosquito circles appearing in its eyes, and it had obviously lost its ability to fight.
Ahong seemed to be stunned. It was unclear whether he did not expect that he and Ryan had such powerful strength or he did not expect that Toucan was so powerful.
“Throw the ball! Hiro, this toucan is very powerful.”
Xiaozhi quickly reminded.
Seeing that Toucan is so powerful and has such great potential, to be honest, Xiaozhi does not want to drive Toucan out of the forest now, because he will definitely return to the forest again after he becomes stronger, so letting Ahong capture him now is a good choice.
“Ah….Go ahead, Poké Ball!”
Hearing Xiaozhi’s reminder, Ahong hurriedly threw out the Poké Ball. The Toucan, which had now lost its combat ability, had no ability to resist at all. After three shakes, it was finally captured successfully.
Well done!
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but feel secretly happy in his heart, as it was now a sure thing for him to capture the Marmoset.
“Congratulations, Hiro.”
Molly stepped forward and said to Hiro.
Even she could see the extraordinaryness of this toucan. She was very happy that such a powerful toucan became Ahong’s helper.
“Great! I conquered the Toucan!”
“Pikachu! Pikachu!”
Hiro finally reacted at this time and immediately stepped forward to pick up the Poké Ball and cheered.
Ryan on the side also jumped onto Ahong’s shoulders. It can be seen that they were very happy.
“Next, we need to train the toucan well. It looks to me like this toucan has the same mutant characteristics as Ryan.”
Xiaozhi also patted Ahong on the shoulder. The fact that he had the system could not be exposed, and it was not easy to tell Ahong directly. He could only remind him. As for how Ahong would develop in the future, it was up to him.

Chapter 40: Conquering the Marmoset (Old Version)
Pokémon Burning Wisdom: Chapter 40: Conquering the Possum
“I see, it’s a mutant trait…”
Ahong nodded. The fact that a Pokémon like Toucan, whose race was not very high, could possess such powerful strength showed the power of this mutation trait.
Xiaozhi called Serena and Xiaoxia, indicating that the two girls could go back with him to find the marsupial.
Pikachu also quickly jumped onto Ash’s shoulder, and Misty followed immediately.
“Well, we’re leaving first.”
As a good girl, Serena was not as casual as Satoshi and Misty. She still said hello to Hong and Molly before leaving.
Watching Satoshi and the other two appearing out of nowhere and leaving silently, Hong couldn’t help but feel a little dazed.
“It may be a bit rude to say this, but Xiaozhi is such a strange kid…”
Molly stood next to Ahong and said something strange.
“Yeah, but Xiaozhi is really amazing. It’s hard to believe that he is a trainer who just started out.”
Hiro said with some emotion.
“But one day, Ren, we will defeat him, right?”
Hiro and Ryan swore a silent oath, and Satoshi’s overwhelming strength made Hiro automatically regard him as his rival.
Xiaozhi was once again searching for Beibei in Viridian Forest, and his speed was so fast that even Xiaoxia could hardly keep up.
“Xiaozhi, slow down! Don’t be impatient!”
Completely ignoring the calls of Misty and Serena, Xiaozhi quickly returned to the place where he had just met the Marmoset, where the Marmoset had been waiting for a long time.
“Ah! (I saw it. Even though it’s an enemy, that toucan is really pitiful.)”
“That’s right. It took your Destruction Death Beam and your powerful Crazy Volt, but it brought this upon itself.”
Xiaozhi said disdainfully.
Indeed, if Toucan had not provoked Marmoset and Hiro, even if he was captured, he might not have been so miserable.
“Pika Pika! (Little Bag! Can we travel together in the future?)”
Pikachu seemed to be more anxious than Ash and Pikachu, and spoke impatiently.
The marsupial looked at Pikachu’s expectant eyes, then looked at Xiaozhi next to him, and finally nodded.
“Until then, choose where you want to live.”
Xiaozhi then took out three different Poké Balls.
They are the classic red and white Poké Ball, the pure white commemorative Ball, and the blue and red Ultra Ball.
Xiaozhi currently only has these three types of Poké Balls. At that time, there were only two types of Poké Balls for sale in Viridian City, Poké Balls and Ultra Balls. Even the commemorative ball was given by the clerk when the purchase was made.
The marsupial thought about it, and finally pointed to the white commemorative ball, which was exactly the opposite of the precious ball in the single sword sheath.
The type of a normal Poké Ball not only determines the probability of capturing a Pokémon, but also determines whether the captured Pokémon inside can escape from it by its own will. The higher the level of the Poké Ball, the more effort the Pokémon needs to exert to break free. Precious Balls and commemorative Balls are at two extremes.
The precious ball is a ball made of a hard alloy with red metallic paint. It is generally used by Pokémon collectors to collect the Pokémon they have purchased. Compared to normal Poké Balls, the advantage is that the internal environment is better and can provide the Pokémon with a good living environment. However, the disadvantage is that compared to ordinary Poké Balls, although the probability of capturing a Pokémon is smaller, once it is captured, the binding force on the Pokémon inside is extremely great, and the Pokémon inside can hardly escape from it by its own strength. It can be seen that Yan Kai attached great importance to the Dual Sword Scabbard at the beginning.
Compared with precious balls, the commemorative balls are made of lighter metal materials and have a larger internal space. Most importantly, due to its own light mass, it has almost no binding force on the captured Pokémon. The Pokémon inside can even see the external environment directly without having to feel it like in a normal Poké Ball.
Of course, the reason why Bulbasaur made this choice was for the growth of the little Bulbasaur. He didn’t want his child to grow up in the closed space of the Poké Ball. In fact, he chose to travel with Ash for this reason. Bulbasaur didn’t want the little Bulbasaur to only live in this forest in the future.
Xiaozhi picked up the commemorative ball and pressed it gently, and the commemorative ball slowly grew larger. With the touch of the marsupial, the commemorative ball opened, and the marsupial turned into red light and was captured in the commemorative ball.
After three shakes, it was successfully conquered.
“System, send me the information of the marsupial beast.”
Xiaozhi thought silently in his heart.
Although Xiaozhi knew that this marsupial was very powerful, he had not yet checked its data.
Love of marsupials
Name: Marmoset
Attributes: General
Traits: Courage
Level: Super Elite Advanced
Skills: Taishan Pressure, Qi Fist, Destruction Death Ray, Bite to Crush, High Five Surprise Attack, Hold On
Information: The marsupial, which has been separated from its clan for a long time, has a gentle personality but strong fighting ability. Long-term battles in the wild have given the marsupial a certain fighting ability, which can be comparable to many high-level elves. Long-term group life has made him dislike loneliness, so he has a heart that protects the weak.
Very talented, with championship potential
“Achievement “Memorable”: Use the Memorial Ball to capture a Pokémon, and the ladder score is +1000.”
When Xiaozhi saw the information about the Marmoset, he was stunned.
The potential is actually championship level?
This is too powerful…
If nothing unexpected happens, the Pokémon with the most powerful potential in the Evergreen Forest might be taken away by himself and Hong today.
This means that the strength of the tribes in the Evergreen Forest today needs to be re-ranked.
I don’t know what will happen to the other groups, but without the protection of the toucan, the group of spearows may be in trouble…
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but complain in his heart.
Indeed, after learning that the strongest Toucan among them was subdued by humans, the tribe that had been bullied by the Spearows for a long time took revenge on the Spearows for a long time. When they returned to Viridian Forest the next time, this series of chain reactions caused Xiaozhi and others to encounter big troubles…
But that’s all in the past.
“Xiaozhi!”
“Have you tamed the marsupial yet?”
At this time, Misty and Serena arrived late. Seeing that only Satoshi and Pikachu were left here, they immediately understood the result.
Xiaozhi nodded, confirming Xiaoxia’s question.
“Thank you for your hard work. I asked you to follow me around. Are you okay?”
Xiaozhi looked at the two girls’ heads covered in sweat and said a little embarrassedly.
“No…it’s okay…”
Hearing Xiaozhi’s concern and apology, Serena held back the words of complaint she was about to say to Xiaozhi and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her head.
“You know that too!”
Misty is not as good-tempered as Serena. She grabbed Xiaozhi and started complaining to him.

Chapter 41: Warrior Man (Old Version)
“Really? I didn’t even see Xiaozhi capture the kangaroo with my own eyes…”
“That’s right. It’s all someone’s fault. He is always anxious. He is usually very calm. I don’t understand why he becomes a different person when he encounters the elves.”
Misty and Serena were talking in unison beside Xiaozhi, and Xiaozhi was helpless. It was indeed that he had not considered this matter carefully. After all, the two of them were travel companions. It was really rude of Xiaozhi to run around without saying a word just now.
Just like that, the three of them continued to advance in the Evergreen Forest.
Xiaozhi walked in front alone, while Serena and Xiaoxia followed behind.
“Hey, Serena.”
Xiaoxia suddenly came to Serena’s ear and called Serena in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Serena also agreed quietly.
Misty watched Serena approaching her, then glanced at Xiaozhi and found that Xiaozhi didn’t seem to notice their whispering, so she asked, “I say, you are not interested in Xiaozhi, are you?”
Hearing Xiaoxia asking her this, Serena blushed and quickly replied: “I…I…I didn’t…”
Seeing Serena stuttering like that, Xiaoxia couldn’t help but shake her head.
“Don’t deny it. I heard from Xiaozhi that you came all the way from Kalos to travel with him. And you were so shy when Xiaozhi showed concern for you just now. How dare you say no?”
Xiaoxia said while giggling, as if she had already seen through Serena.
“Well… well… yes, I have had a crush on him since I met him two years ago…”
Seeing Xiaoxia was so confident, Serena couldn’t deny it for a while and had to admit it.
“Ah… As expected, it’s a pity for Xiaozhi, who is so stupid that he only thinks about Pokémon all day long, alas…”
Xiaoxia was about to continue speaking, but Xiaozhi suddenly turned around.
“What are you talking about? Serena, why is your face so red?”
Xiaoxia was fine, but Serena was startled and hurriedly explained: “No…no! I was just chatting with Sister Xiaoxia! Blushing…blushing? Maybe I’m tired…tired…”
“Um…”
Xiaozhi glanced at the incoherent Serena, then looked at the giggling Xiaoxia, and suggested: “It’s almost noon, let’s take a break and have lunch. Here, wipe the sweat off your face.”
Xiaozhi’s idea is very simple. Although Serena and Misty are physically strong and can keep up with his pace, and they should have had enough exercise since childhood, they are just girls after all, and they will get tired if they walk too far.
After saying that, Xiaozhi handed his handkerchief to Serena.
“This handkerchief is…”
Serena recognized at a glance that the handkerchief used by Xiaozhi was the same one he used to apply ice to her two years ago, and immediately looked at Xiaozhi.
“Ah… I’ve used this handkerchief for a long time, do you mind?”
Xiaozhi saw Serena staring at him, then looked at the handkerchief, scratched his head, and said.
“Oh… I don’t mind…”
Serena took the handkerchief helplessly, wiped her face with it, and put it into her pocket, ready to wash it and return it to Xiaozhi after finding water.
After wiping the sweat off her face, Serena took out a picnic mat from her backpack and put the food she had prepared and the food for the elves on it.
Xiaozhi released all his Pokémon, and Pikachu, Scabbard, and Biceps appeared at the same time.
It is worth mentioning that the aura of the sword sheath almost scared the little marsupial to tears.
Xiaozhi took a look at this happy scene and slowly came to a tree stump. He was ready to practice the power of wave.
It seems that I am not yet fully familiar with the use of the power of wave. Simply using the power of wave is fine, but using it for a long time will cause my physical strength to be depleted quickly.
Sitting gently on the tree stump, Xiaozhi slowly closed his eyes, as if the whole world disappeared and turned into the waveguide feedback that Xiaozhi was familiar with.
After Xiaozhi discovered that he possessed the power of wave guidance, even though he became more and more proficient in using it, his own wave guidance level did not improve at all. For the past two years, Xiaozhi had to constantly practice using his training methods.
I have never practiced according to the methods given by Professor Oak.
Because Xiaozhi felt that there was no way to practice the power of wave, he could only improve his own proficiency and become more proficient in using the power of wave.
After all, among humans, except for Yalang who was called the Wave Warrior in ancient books, Dr. Oak had never heard of anyone who could master the power of waves, and hundreds of years had passed since the era of the Wave Warrior Yalang.
Professor Oak naturally had no way of finding a good method for Satoshi to train.
Just as Xiaozhi was using his eyes to feel the wave feedback of all things, suddenly, Xiaozhi opened his eyes, because Xiaozhi sensed a stranger, a stranger holding a samurai sword walking towards the camp of the three of them.
Xiaozhi looked around and soon found his location.
“(Dujianshao, come here for a moment.)”
Xiaozhi quietly sent a waveguide message to the Dujianscabbard.
The single sword sheath quickly sneaked into the shadow and came to Xiaozhi’s side.
Next, Xiaozhi pretended not to notice the stranger and kept his eyes closed, waiting for the other party’s sneak attack.
And everything happened just as Xiaozhi had expected. The man in samurai uniform slowly and gently approached Xiaozhi.
There was a sound of swords being drawn, and the young man in samurai clothes finally drew his samurai sword.
“Ah!”
With a loud shout, Serena and Xiaoxia’s attention was instantly attracted. They saw a fat man in samurai clothes suddenly jumped out of the grass and slashed towards Xiaozhi with a samurai sword.
Generally speaking, as long as you are a normal person, you will be scared to death by this person. Just like Serena and Misty, they didn’t even react to what was happening, and could only watch Xiaozhi in danger with their eyes wide open.
Unfortunately, this person attacked the wrong person. He provoked Satoshi who had activated the power of wave, so this person was destined to be badly beaten by Satoshi.
Facing the strange boy who was attacking with a samurai sword, Xiaozhi sat there calmly. When the other party approached, he took out a scarlet scabbard from the shadow and stood on the other party’s samurai sword with one knife.
The opponent’s katana broke in two, and Xiaozhi suddenly jumped up and kicked the opponent in the stomach.
“ah!”
This was extremely painful. The boy rolled his eyes in pain and covered his stomach with both hands. His face told the three people how painful it was.
“Xiaozhi, are you okay?” Serena immediately ran to Xiaozhi and asked him with concern.
“He’s the one who’s in trouble.” Xiaozhi said indifferently. He wasn’t the one who got beaten anyway, so how could he be in trouble?
Xiaoxia also looked at Xiaozhi, and seeing that Xiaozhi was not injured, she relaxed again, and then she yelled at the warrior: “What on earth do you want to do! Fatty! What are you thinking about! Do you know that you have endangered the safety of others by doing this!”
After saying that, Xiaoxia was still not satisfied, so she picked up the fat man and kicked the warrior in the vitals.
“ah!!!”
The warrior man’s screams rang out again in the forest, causing Xiaozhi to feel a chill down his spine.
This is really painful…
“Stop hitting me, Xiaoxia.”
Seeing that Xiaoxia seemed to be still angry, Xiaozhi quickly stepped forward to stop her, returned the broken sword to the warrior man, and continued: “Anyway, I’m fine, and I don’t believe he dares to really chop me, so let him go.”
Xiaozhi said, seeing how pitiful the samurai man really was.
(I’m going to work out. I’ll have two more chapters tonight.)
Chapter 42 vs Kogoro (Old Version)
Although Xiaoxia did not kill him, she did hit a vital part and the kick was not light. The warrior covered his stomach and lower body for a long time before he recovered.
But what made Xiaozhi speechless was that after the warrior man got up, the first thing he did was not to cause trouble for Xiaoxia or Xiaozhi, but to look at Xiaozhi with shock on his face.
“You…how did you do that just now! I clearly saw that you had your eyes closed! And where did you get the weapon from! How is it possible that you could cut off my samurai sword!” The fat samurai asked a lot of questions with a shocked look on his face.
Hearing this, Serena and Misty on the side finally reacted and looked at Xiaozhi in surprise. Xiaozhi seemed to have always had a strong sense of perception, as if nothing that happened around him escaped his eyes, such as the previous Marsupial and the Toucan, the lurking Manabird in the Pokémon Center, and the counterattack against the Samurai Man just now. But they were only concerned about whether Xiaozhi was injured or not, and now it seems that something is indeed wrong.
“well…”
Xiaozhi actually didn’t want to hide the power of wave, but it was too troublesome to explain. After thinking for a while, he continued to say to everyone: “I feel a kind of aura called wave from you. You can understand that I have a ‘heart eye’ that can observe the surrounding environment more than you.”
Xiaozhi was afraid that people wouldn’t understand, so he had to explain it this way. Few people in the world know about the power of wave guidance. Comparing it to the mind’s eye might be easier to understand and it doesn’t sound so shocking.
“I’m the samurai boy Kogoro! You have a very powerful mind, please join me in a Pokémon battle!” After introducing himself, the samurai boy Kogoro invited Xiaozhi to a battle. The opponent’s eyes were full of excitement and expectation, and it was obvious at a glance that he didn’t want to let go of such a seemingly powerful master like Xiaozhi.
“Wait, I can accept your challenge, but you should be the bug catcher.”
Xiaozhi said speechlessly that this guy should be the most numerous insect catcher in the Viridian Forest, but he just changed into a samurai uniform and was actually trying to scam the samurai here.
“I’m a samurai boy! Stop talking nonsense and come fight!”
“Okay, bug catcher, the rules are 3v3, Pikachu, you go ahead.”
There are only three Pokémon in Xiaozhi’s team now, so he wants to take this opportunity to let everyone practice and prepare for the subsequent gym battles.
Pikachu’s face was full of confidence. He had been itching to practice for the past two days. One of the members of the team was a marsupial, his childhood playmate, and the other was a swordsman who hid in the shadows all day long and could not be found. No one could be his sparring partner.
As for the wild Pokémon, he was already tired of bullying them.
“Ash, Pikachu, come on!”
Serena sat on the picnic mat, combing Fire Fox’s hair and cheering for Ash. It was unclear whether she was particularly interested in the Pokémon battle or in Ash herself.
“That’s right! Xiaozhi, you can’t lose.”
Xiaoxia also shouted quickly.
On the battlefield, Xiaozhi and Kogoro are ready for battle.
“Okay, I’ll leave it to you! Bug-attribute charging warrior! Big Armor!” Kogoro’s expression was no longer one of admiration and curiosity, but became serious. He threw out a Poké Ball and sent out his first Pokémon.
Among the Bug-attribute Pokémon, Carapace is considered a very powerful race. If we compare strength, even Scyther, which is known as the strongest Bug-attribute in Kanto, may not be a match for Carapace.
There seems to be a rumor recently that someone saw a winged giant beetle flying in the sky. I don’t know whether it is true or not.
But no matter how Kogoro’s big-armored Xiaozhi looked at it, it looked uncomfortable. Just in terms of level, it was ridiculously low, only at high level. The big horns on its head did not look hard, but felt brittle, as if they had just grown out.
In short, in Xiaozhi’s opinion, the strength of this big armor is not good at all.
“You attack first.”
Xiaozhi said indifferently.
“Well then, Dajia, use the split!”
In Kogoro’s mind, Satoshi is a powerful master, so of course he must seize the opportunity to attack first.
After receiving Kogoro’s order, Dajia did not attack immediately, perhaps because of his lack of combat experience or because he felt Pikachu’s power. The two long horns on his head moved, making clanging sounds, and he glared at Pikachu fiercely, as if he was building up mental strength, or as if he was threatening Pikachu.
Finally, after a series of actions, the armor finally hardened its two big horns, leaned forward, and rushed towards Pikachu desperately.
Xiaozhi didn’t give any instructions, as if he was thinking about something, but when he saw Pikachu in the armor getting closer and closer, he casually said: “Pikachu, get out of the way, and then use Iron Tail on his side.”
Pikachu dodged the splitting move of the Great Armor with a slight shake of its body. At the moment when the Great Armor brushed against Pikachu, Pikachu seized the opportunity and jumped into the air. At the same time, its tail hardened quickly, shining with metallic luster, and it swung hard and hit the Great Armor in the face.
Pikachu almost knocked down the Carapace with just one move, but as a Carapace, powerful strength and defense are its hallmarks. In the end, the Carapace shook its head and stubbornly got up from the ground.
“Hurry up and stand up! Dajia! Use the snip next!”
When Kogoro saw Dajia stand up again, he immediately gave the order.
“Pikachu, just use Iron Tail to counter.”
That’s right, after watching the battle between Hiro and Ryan, Ash suddenly realized that Pikachu’s physical attack ability was far inferior to Ryan, so he chose this big armored Pikachu as Pikachu’s opponent in this battle, deliberately not using electric attribute skills in order to exercise its physical attack ability.
Although the long horns of this big Pokémon are not very hard and are even a little brittle, Pikachu’s Iron Tail is not a move that Pikachu is good at, and the two Pokémons are actually evenly matched.
Misty and Serena looked at Xiaozhi on the field in confusion. The crisp sound of metal colliding kept echoing on the field, making the two girls frown.
“Ash! What are you doing? Let Pikachu use his electric move!”
Xiaoxia quickly reminded.
Seeing that Xiaozhi was indifferent, Xiaoxia quickly pulled Serena and said, “Serena, please try to persuade him! He actually won’t let Pikachu use the electric attack.”
Serena’s face was also full of solemnity, but she still comforted Xiaoxia and said, “He should have his own reasons…”
On the battlefield
“Absolutely impossible! That Pikachu actually has the same level of power as my armor!!”
Kogoro couldn’t believe the fierce fight in front of him. If it was another huge opponent, Kogoro would think it was nothing, but the opponent was just a Pikachu!
Whether in terms of size or strength, how can the pickup truck be compared with the big armor?
Little did he know that tomorrow when Hiro passes by here, he will encounter a Pikachu with even greater power…
“Pikachu, break free, lightning flash.”
Seeing that he was unable to defeat Da Jia and his physical strength was constantly being consumed, Xiaozhi sighed. He didn’t expect that he had neglected the training of close combat moves.
Chapter 43: Pikachu’s Combo Skills (Old Version)
After hearing Xiaozhi’s order, Pikachu responded immediately and stopped shaking with the big armor, but quickly distanced himself from it.
“Pikachu, use the electric net, then don’t throw it out, gather the electric ball in the electric net, and finally use the iron tail.”
This is a brand new combo skill that Xiaozhi has recently figured out. It is the second combo skill after 100,000 Volts + Thunder.
First, gather the electric grid on the tail and wrap the electric ball with the grid, so that all the electricity can be stored on the tail, and then strengthen the power of the steel tail.
Pikachu responded excitedly. Although he felt that Xiaozhi’s order was a bit too much, he still tried it.
Suddenly, the electricity in Pikachu’s body seemed to be released and gathered at the top of the tail, and the tail slowly began to show the metallic luster that symbolizes a steel tail. A large golden net appeared, and an electric ball began to form inside the golden net, eventually forming a terrifying large golden ball of lightning.
“Oh my god…”
“Amazing!”
Xiaoxia and Serena couldn’t help but exclaim, this momentum was simply terrifying, and was no less powerful than Ahong and Ryan’s Crazy Volt.
After all, it was the first time that Xiaozhi used a combo skill in front of them, and the power of the combo skill was very strong and it was very impressive to watch, which made the two girls look at Xiaozhi with a little more admiration in their eyes.
“Da Jia! Gather your energy quickly!”
As the person involved, Kogoro naturally understood how scary this move was, and quickly asked Dajia to defend himself.
I didn’t expect that Kogoro was quite creative and actually used energy gathering to defend himself.
Gathering energy is a move that requires taking a deep breath to allow the elf to concentrate, making it easier to aim at the opponent’s vital points.
However, when Da Jia uses it, he actually concentrates on making his shell harder, thereby improving his own defense.
The increased defense level is above hardening, and under the iron wall, it can also increase one’s own concentration, making it easier to hit the vital points. It is a very cost-effective move.
Unfortunately, it’s too late now.
“Pika-chu!”
Pikachu roared, and the iron tail surrounded by a huge electric ball became even more powerful. The electric current faintly emerging around the electric ball could even reduce the opponent’s speed. This powerful blow hit the big armor head-on, and the big armor that was gathering energy was blown away. This time he fell to the ground and had no strength to stand up. His body was still charred and there were mosquito coils in his eyes. Obviously, he had lost his ability to fight.
This combination skill includes the physical attack of Iron Tail, the special attack of Electric Net and Electric Ball, and it can also reduce the opponent’s speed level. It is a very powerful combination skill.
But in terms of power, it is definitely not as real as 100,000 volts and thunder.
“Da Jia! Thank you for your hard work. Are you okay?” Kogoro hurriedly ran towards Da Jia, who had been electrocuted and turned pitch black, not like an elf anymore.
After confirming that Dajia was fine, Kogoro reluctantly took back his elf.
Next, Xiaozhi sent out the Sword Scabbard and the Marmoset to ruthlessly defeat Kogoro’s Metapod and Metapod and won the game.
“Great! Xiaozhi, I knew you could do it!”
“Great! Xiaozhi!”
Misty and Serena immediately came to Xiaozhi’s side and applauded for his wonderful battle.
Of course, only the first match where Xiaozhi can be put underwater is exciting.
Xiaozhi also nodded. To be honest, he was still very happy, but not because he defeated the weakling Kogoro, but because Pikachu succeeded in using his new combo skill for the first time. It seems that the tacit understanding between Pikachu and himself and the usual training are still very effective.
“By the way, Xiaozhi, why didn’t you let Pikachu use 100,000 Volts or Thunder in your first battle? That should have ended the game in no time, right?”
Although Serena knew that Xiaozhi was indeed letting her win, she didn’t know his reason.
“Indeed.”
While releasing all his Pokémon, applying medicine, and wiping the dust off their bodies with a towel, Xiaozhi said, “Do you remember Hiro? That Pikachu’s melee ability is simply too strong. In fact, I never thought that Pikachu’s melee ability would be so strong. Besides, my Pikachu is not suitable for continuous combat now. It is only good at electrical release and not very good speed. It will be bad if it encounters an opponent who deliberately targets Pikachu.”
“So Pikachu’s current task is to train physical attack skills and speed, and that big armor is a very suitable training opponent.”
“It seems that you are not as careless as usual! You are still very careful.”
When Misty heard what Xiaozhi said, she couldn’t help but look at Serena and spoke, as if with a double entendre.
“You are very awesome. Are you also a trainer in Pallet Town?” At this time, Kogoro walked over and asked.
“Yes, I’m from Pallet Town.”
“It is true. I have met three trainers from Pallet Town before. The girl named Xiaolan is so scary that she made me lose my mind. There is also the one named Xiaomao. His strength is simply terrifying, but it is nothing compared to you.”
Only then did Kogoro nod his head with an expression that said, “I see.”
The people coming out of this Zhenxin Town are all strong.
Nibi City.
A brown-haired hedgehog-headed boy walked out of the Nibi Gym, with a rather sturdy Squirtle next to him.
“Come on, Xiaomao, Xiaomao! You’re awesome!”
There were many beauties sitting in the sports car parked in front of the gym, and Xiao Mao slowly walked into the sports car.
“How’s it going, girlfriends? I’ve got my first badge. Now let’s head to the second gym…”
Before Xiao Mao could finish his words, there was a knock on the car window.
Xiao Mao opened the window, and what caught his eye was a beautiful woman who looked 80% like himself.
“elder sister?!”
Xiao Mao couldn’t help but exclaim.
The woman in front of him is Nanami Ooki, Xiaomao’s sister. Since Xiaomao’s parents disappeared, she came to the museum in Nibi City as a consultant, and also used the excuse of archaeological research to look for her parents.
“Oki Shigeru! Get down here!”
When Nanami saw her brother for the first time, she pinched his ear and pulled Xiaomao out of the car.
“It hurts…it hurts…what are you doing!”
Xiao Mao was speechless. His sister was always gentle to everyone, so why was she like this to him…
“You are amazing. How can you travel with women in a sports car? Listen carefully. I will take them back to Pallet Town next. You have to travel by yourself. Do you hear me?”
Nanami looked at her brother with anger on her face. She didn’t expect that her grandfather would spoil Xiao Mao to be like this when she was not around.
“I don’t want to, Xiaozhi also travels with women! Why can’t I?”
Xiao Mao argued with reason.
“You…you…can do it. Mr. Xiaogang is going to hold the Nibi Museum Tournament in Nibi City. If you can be as good as Xiaozhi at that time, I will allow you to go on a car trip!”
Nanami looked at her brother with disappointment.
(Today’s fourth update is over. I am so tired, brothers. Please give me monthly tickets, collections and flowers.)
Chapter 44: Wu Neng’s Warning (Old Version)
The second half of Route 2 connects Nibi City and Viridian Forest.
The stupid trio of Team Rocket had escaped from the detention center in Viridian City at some point, and had even gotten ahead of Satoshi and the others. In this way, the trio arrived at Route 2 in advance, dug a huge pit in the center of Route 2, set up a trap with tree branches, and then covered the hole with the surrounding sand.
I have to admit that these three people are geniuses at digging traps. This trap is actually no different from a normal road surface.
“It’s so perfect, this trap is a work of art!”
“That’s right, when the green hat brat and the little girl Joey come over, they will fall into this trap!”
“Then that oddball curly-haired Pikachu will be ours, meow, wahahahahaha!”
The three members of Team Rocket put their hands on their hips and smiled triumphantly.
However, the more careful Kojiro looked at the road surface of Route 2 again, and suddenly his smile froze. He paused and asked Musashi and Meowth who were still laughing foolishly:
“Um… where is our trap located?”
The other two also stopped laughing at this time, looking at the calm road surface, they were stunned. The trap was set too perfectly that even they couldn’t recognize it.
The three of them looked at each other and quickly began to look for the traps they had set.
“Is it here, meow… or there…”
Meow Meow relied on the elves’ stronger observation ability than humans and his own memory to reach the center of Route 2.
Suddenly, Meow Meow heard a strange sound under his feet. The branches that were originally laid out could not bear Meow Meow’s weight and broke. The entire trap was instantly exposed on the flat road surface, and Meow Meow slid down.
“Musashi, hurry up and hold me, meow!”
Meow Meow was frightened by the sudden feeling of weightlessness and grabbed Musashi’s ankle, but she didn’t expect that the force of the fall would drag Musashi into the trap as well.
“Kojiro, save me!”
Musashi also became panicked as he fell, and quickly grabbed Kojiro’s feet, then dragged him and Kojiro into the trap.
Otherwise, why would they be called the Idiot Trio? The three of them fell completely into the trap they had dug. Fortunately, Manato returned to Team Rocket Headquarters for training after the last time, otherwise she would have been in trouble too.
Route 2 returned to its original tranquility.
Twenty minutes later.
Hiro and Molly finally reached Route 2.
“Yeah! We finally got out of the Tokiwa Forest.” Hiro stretched himself, but when he saw the big hole in the middle of Route 2, he couldn’t help but frown and asked, “Huh? Why is there a big hole in the middle of the road?”
“That’s right. There are no safety signs posted. It would be terrible if someone fell down.”
Molly and Hong came to the front of the deep pit together, and looked inside from the hole. It was a bit dark, and there were even a lot of leaves and branches inside, but they could vaguely see black shadows crawling inside, like insects.
“What’s in there?”
“It should be a gopher.”
“Ah, then let’s fill the hole, so that passing trainers will be safer…?”
“Good idea.” Ahong nodded and threw a Poké Ball.
“Please, Toucan, uh…Flying Sand Foot, you can do it, right?”
Toucan has been completely subdued by Ryan in the past two days and still listens to Hong very much.
The toucan kicked its feet, and all the sand on Route 2 began to be sucked into the trap, quickly blocking the entrance to the cave.
At this time, Route 2 regained its original harmony.
And so, Hiro and Molly continued walking towards the direction of Nibi City.
On the other side, Xiaozhi and his group also walked out of the Viridian Forest and soon arrived at the end of Route 2.
Just as Xiaozhi continued to move forward, he suddenly heard a reminder. Xiaozhi immediately turned around and found that Serena accidentally stepped on a man’s things.
“Girl, you’re stepping on my merchandise.”
This is a middle-aged man with squinty eyes wearing a red knitted hat. He uses a mask to cover most of his face, but his skin, exposed by his short-sleeved shirt and shorts, is very dark, revealing his strong muscles.
Seriously, if Xiaozhi is just strong, then this guy’s muscles can really be described as strong.
Serena was startled by the thought and looked down quickly, only to find that she was standing on an inconspicuous large stone with a price tag on it.
“What? It’s just an ordinary stone…”
Serena complained helplessly.
Then I looked around and found that this was actually a stone store. There were all kinds of stones displayed around. Not only those beautiful gems, but also some stones that looked very cheap had all kinds of price labels on them.
“Nibi City is a town that symbolizes the will of rock…” the middle-aged man said slowly.
At this time, Xiaozhi finally got the chance to interrupt and asked the man impatiently:
“Hey, uncle, who are you?”
“I recognize you! You are the former Nibi Gym…”
Only then did Xiaoxia see the uncle’s face clearly. She was very surprised and was about to speak, but was immediately interrupted by Wu Neng. Wu Neng seemed not to want everyone to know, and quickly made a hushing gesture.
“Oh, you’re from the Cerulean Gym…”
Seeing that Wu Neng also wanted to reveal his identity, Xiaoxia quickly made a hushing gesture.
Seeing that the two were both playing dumb, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but said impatiently: “You two know each other? Then who is he, Xiaoxia?”
“Ah… He used to be the owner of the shop in front of the Nibe Gym… He was definitely not a gym owner. Yes, that’s right. I bought things from him before. Xiaozhi, do you want to buy some stones from him? The things he sells are of very good quality!”
When Xiaoxia saw Xiaozhi asking the question, she quickly spoke.
“Aren’t you a water attribute trainer? Why are you buying stones…”
Xiaozhi immediately noticed the suspicious point and continued to ask questions.
“It’s a gem…”
Xiaoxia continued, but seeing Xiaozhi’s suspicious look, she couldn’t help feeling a little guilty.
“Um…Gym Master, what does that mean? Isn’t a gym a place for people to train?” Serena couldn’t help but ask when she heard the two people’s conversation used words she had never heard of.
After all, no matter how good the grades are, the school can only teach some methods of breeding Pokémons and cannot decide the future path of every student. So Serena actually doesn’t know the common sense of these trainers because she has never wanted to be a trainer.
“Huh? Are you a novice trainer from other places? Well, well, let me explain it to you…” Before Takeneng could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xiaozhi.
“Each region has a small number of gyms, and each gym has a gym owner with specific combat characteristics, also known as a gym trainer. Defeating the gym owner of a region will earn you the region’s gym badge. Gathering eight badges from a region will allow you to challenge the region’s alliance conference. In Kanto, we are going to hold the Kanto Alliance – Quartz Conference.”
“Every year the alliance holds a conference like this, and every time there is a person who wins the championship, this person can initiate a championship league against the Elf Alliance in that region. The championship league includes challenges to the Heavenly Kings. If you defeat four Heavenly Kings in a row, you can challenge the strongest in the Elf Alliance, the league champion! Just like the champion of your Carlos area, Miss Kaluni, but the champion of our region disappeared three or four years ago, and the Heavenly Kings have just been rotated recently, so the champion has not yet been decided.”
After hearing Xiaozhi’s detailed explanation, Serena nodded slowly, indicating that she understood. But she asked again out of curiosity: “So that means, if you get eight badges, you can directly challenge the League Conference, right?”
“No, after getting eight badges, you still have to pass the Champion Road test before you can participate in the Alliance Conference.”
Xiaoxia added: “Before each league tournament is held, trainers who want to participate must go through the Champions Road. Whether they enter the competition through gym badges or university quotas, they have to screen out a large number of people on the Champions Road before they can enter the league tournament auditions. It’s actually very strict.”
Xiaozhi nodded. To be honest, he didn’t really know much about the Road to Championship section, and Xiaoxia’s supplement was very on point.
Wu Neng sighed. These two guys seemed to be experienced trainers. But when Wu Neng saw the Pikachu on Xiaozhi’s shoulder, he asked again
“Who are you to challenge the Nibi Gym?”
Xiaozhi said expressionlessly: “Me, what’s wrong?”
“Uh…I see. But I see your Pokémon. It will be very difficult to defeat Gym Leader Brock, who has the Will of Rock…”
Seeing Xiaozhi frowning, Wu Neng glanced at Pikachu.
“This Pikachu’s attributes are not so advantageous against Xiaogang. You have to know that rocks and the ground are inseparable. Xiaogang’s Pokémon also have a lot of ground attributes, and the ground attributes restrain your Pikachu, and it is also immune to electric shock,” Wu Neng continued.
“Then it’s none of your business.”
Xiaozhi was obviously a little unhappy. After all, he hadn’t even gone to the gym yet and this guy was cursing him here.
After saying that, he ignored Wu Neng and headed towards Nibi City on his own.
“That’s right, Xiaozhi has other Pokémons! Our Xiaozhi will definitely not lose!”
Serena echoed, and quickly followed Xiaozhi.
Xiaoxia exchanged a glance with Wu Neng, then immediately followed the two of them.
Chapter 45: The Elf Egg Sent by Professor Oak (Old Version)
After bidding farewell to Wu Neng, Xiaozhi and his three friends arrived at the territory of Nibe City, a town with rocky style everywhere. Because the city style is dark gray, many people call it Dark Gray City.
“What… That old man is so unreasonable. He started talking to us about a bunch of nonsense right away and even said that Xiaozhi would lose… Tsk!”
Serena was still feeling sorry for Satoshi. After all, in her opinion, Satoshi was very powerful. At least she thought that Satoshi would not lose to a gym leader so easily.
“If the gym leader were to get serious with me, it would be really hard for me to win.”
Ash said as he noticed that Serena didn’t seem to know what level a gym trainer was.
The requirement to become a gym trainer is to have at least three gym-level Pokémon, and the three Pokémon in Ash’s current team are only at the super elite level.
Otherwise, Xiaozhi wouldn’t have come up with so many combo skills. If the level gap wasn’t that big, he might have been able to fight the opponent head-on.
“Oh, is that so?”
Serena is confused, is the gym trainer stronger than Ash?
Xiaoxia nodded and said, “That’s right. The gym trainers will send out appropriate Pokémon according to the level of the challenger’s Pokémon. In simple terms, it’s just a test, but if they really fight, they are very strong.”
After the conversation among the three, they quickly walked to the Pokémon Center in Nibe City. In the Pokémon Center, Xiaozhi also saw a familiar person.
“Xiao Mao, what are you doing sitting here?”
For some reason, Xiao Mao looked very depressed now. Xiao Zhi took a look at him and walked up to ask.
At this time, Xiao Mao, who was lowering his head, seemed to have just discovered Xiaozhi who had finally arrived in Viridian City, and suddenly became excited.
“Xiaozhi! Do you know how I’ve been spending the past few days? Please save me!”
When Xiao Mao saw Xiao Zhi, he felt like he saw the light. He immediately grabbed Xiao Zhi’s shoulders and felt like he was about to cry.
“If you have something to say, then you can say it.”
Seeing Xiaomao getting shy, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but urge him.
“My sister parked my card and stole my car! My girlfriends have been sent back to Pallet Town aa …
Xiaomao couldn’t stop crying, but he didn’t expect that Nanami was just looking for an excuse to comfort Xiaomao. She secretly drove Xiaomao’s sports car and took Xiaomao’s girlfriends back to Pallet Town.
The most difficult thing was that she also suspended Xiaomao’s card. Now Xiaomao has turned from a wealthy young man into a poor man. Nanami only left him a town map and returned to the Nibi Museum.
“So what do you want me to do?”
Seeing how miserable the boy was, Xiaozhi sighed and had no choice but to help him.
“Lend me some money, I’ll call grandpa and he will definitely transfer the money to me!”
Ten minutes later.
“No, Nanami said you have to be self-reliant. If you make money and travel like Xiaozhi did, I will give you 3,000 yuan a month.”
It was rare for Professor Oak to be stern in front of his grandson, but Xiaozhi next to him couldn’t help but curl his lips.
Because Hanako only gave him 2,500 yuan a month for living expenses…
“Grandpa, please, three thousand is really not enough!”
Xiao Mao pleaded with his savings, after all, his long-term pampering had made him develop the habit of spending money lavishly.
“I said no, it means no. By the way, ask Xiaozhi to come over and answer the phone.”
Professor Oak sternly refused and waved at Xiao Mao.
“Doc, I’m here.”
Only then did Xiaozhi push away the collapsed Xiaomao and come to Professor Oak’s screen.
“Um, Xiaozhi, your starting Pokémon… er… actually…”
“Doctor, if you really can’t give me one, forget it. I already have three elves.”
Seeing Professor Oak hesitating, Xiaozhi sighed and said.
“Who said I can’t give it to you? I’ll send it to you right now!”
Dr. Oak immediately retorted that as an old scholar in the research field, he could not stand being questioned by others the most.
As Professor Oak left and reappeared, soon, what was teleported from the teleportation device in Nibe City was not a Poké Ball, but a Poké Egg.
“Doctor, where can someone give an egg to a Pokémon?”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but be speechless. This old man actually used an egg to fool him.
“Oh, Xiaozhi, this Pokémon is really suitable for you! This Pokémon egg contains a powerful wave power, and it was a Pokémon egg from 6 years ago! He should have been born a long time ago, but I don’t know why he didn’t hatch. Oh, anyway, this child is left to you. Ah… By the way, Xiaomao is also left to you.”
After saying that, Professor Oak hung up the phone without even giving Xiaozhi a chance to refute.
“Hey, wait a minute, hey!”
Xiaozhi looked at the dim screen and felt furious.
Looking at the elf egg next to him, he sighed, and finally picked it up.
“Xiaozhi, is this the starting Pokémon grandpa gave you?”
Xiao Mao only saw the elf egg that was sent to him at this time. Now he also accepted the reality that his family could not give him money, so he could only go out and make money on his own in the future…
“Um.”
At this time, Serena and Misty also came over, and seeing the Pokémon egg in Xiaozhi’s hand, they couldn’t help but touch it curiously.
Xiao Mao only saw Serena and Xiaoxia at this time, and couldn’t help but be stunned. There was another one? Wasn’t there only Serena when they set out? Xiaozhi is also popular with the opposite sex… No, if Xiaolan saw her, she would explode…
Xiao Mao couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Xiao Lan had already left Nibi City early and headed towards Yuejian Mountain, apparently intending to capture a Pipi.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mao let out a long sigh of relief.
At this time, Xiaozhi took the Pokémon egg out of the constant temperature chamber and wanted to let the two girls observe it closely, but the moment Xiaozhi opened the constant temperature chamber, a powerful wave force resonated with the wave force in his body.
Xiaozhi stopped the two girls who were about to touch the Pokémon eggs and said.
Then he slowly closed his eyes, and instantly a powerful wave force seemed to merge with the wave force in his body. What shocked Serena, Xiaoxia and Xiaomao was that the elf egg emitted a brilliant blue light.
Then, the eggshell broke, and a dog-shaped elf was born from the elf egg.
This is a Riolu.
“It’s Riolu.”
Xiaozhi slowly opened his eyes and met Riolu’s eyes. He couldn’t help but be a little surprised, because in Sinnoh, Riolu is an extremely rare Pokémon, and its evolved form is also a very powerful Lucario. Almost no one has ever seen a wild Riolu.
“So it’s this elf egg…” Xiao Mao said, obviously realizing something.
“My grandfather calls this type of elf egg the Azure Egg, because it cannot be hatched no matter what method is used in the alliance. And every time you try to hatch it artificially, a blue energy will destroy the hatching equipment!”
“But grandpa seems to have discovered some time ago that this energy is the wave power you possess! I didn’t expect grandpa to actually give you this elf egg that the alliance values ??so much!”
“Really? Who is his grandson?”
Chapter 46 I Like the Powerful (Old Version)
Xiaozhi went back and called Professor Oak again. After trying several times, he finally got through.
“Xiaozhi, don’t scold me first. I guarantee that the Pokémon hatched from this Pokémon egg will be suitable for you…”
As soon as Professor Oak answered the phone, he began to comfort Xiaozhi, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xiaozhi.
“Thank you, Doctor.”
Xiaozhi said this with great gratitude, after all, everyone could see how good Professor Oak was to him this time.
“You really don’t have to be so mean to me… No… What did you just say?”
Professor Oak said in surprise.
Could this Xiaozhi be an alien in disguise? No way, the real Xiaozhi can’t be so polite!
“Uh… Doctor, I hatched the Pokémon egg. I just said, thank you, thank you for helping me get such a precious Pokémon.”
Xiaozhi said again.
“Ah, so that’s how it is, it doesn’t matter…. No, tell me again? You hatched?”
Professor Oak was shocked by Ash again. The Pokémon egg that the Alliance had spent six years trying to hatch was successfully hatched by Ash in less than ten minutes?
Xiaozhi turned the camera to the newly born Riolu and said to Professor Oak: “This is the one who hatched, Riolu.”
At this time, Dr. Oak has regained his composure. After all, he has been a researcher for so many years and has seen all kinds of storms.
“Ah, it’s Riolu after all. Ever since I knew that the Pokémon egg could release such a powerful wave power, I knew that this Pokémon is a perfect match for you. I’m glad you like it. Remember to train Riolu well, okay?”
“I remember that the legendary wave guide Alan was followed by a Lucario, so I am looking forward to what you can train this child into.”
Professor Oak’s face immediately returned to its normal state and he said.
“I understand, Doctor. We will definitely not let you down.”
Xiaozhi said solemnly.
After hanging up the phone again, Xiaozhi began to try to communicate with Riolu, releasing the power of wave and sending a message: (“Hello, I’m Xiaozhi, we will travel together from now on.”)
“Oulu!”
As if sensing that the wave power in Xiaozhi’s body was far greater than that of him who was just born, Riolu called out, without sending any information, but just looking at Xiaozhi with admiration on his face.
It wasn’t surprising for Xiaozhi to see Riolu like this. After all, this guy was just born. He would be much better after growing up. After all, the adaptability of Pokémon is much stronger than that of humans.
(“System, I want Riolu’s information.”)
Xiaozhi also did not forget to check the information of this Riolu, waiting for the system’s query.
Riolu with waveguide fusion
Name: Riolu
Features: Unyielding Heart
Attribute: Fighting
Skills: Vacuum Wave, Power, Double Return, Bullet Fist
Level: Advanced
Information: Born in Sinnoh, he is the descendant of Lucario, the Wave Hero’s partner. He is a Pokémon born to merge the power of the Wave with the Wave Messenger. He is unwilling to hatch from the egg because he cannot feel the guidance of the Wave Messenger.
When connected to it by a wave guide, it has extremely high talent and potential at the champion level.
Xiaozhi was shocked again. He didn’t expect that this Riolu was actually the offspring of the legendary Lucario, and had such terrifying talent and potential, and now he had a wave connection with him.
The future growth will be very scary.
At this time, Xiaozhi took back Riolu and said to Xiaomao.
“Hey, where does your sister live now? Let’s go visit her.”
When Satoshi was young, Nanami Ooki, as the older sister, took great care of him. Not only did she let Satoshi do Pokémon research with her, but she also didn’t treat Satoshi as a child at all.
But two years ago, Nanami and Komo’s parents disappeared, so Ooki Nanami set out to the museum in Nibi City, looking for her parents under the guise of archaeology.
But then again, Shigeru and Nanami seem to have an older brother, but Satoshi doesn’t have a deep impression of him. He started traveling when Satoshi was very young, and he was rarely seen in Pallet Town.
Xiaozhi can’t remember what that person’s name was, but that person looked very similar to Xiaomao, like an enlarged version of Xiaomao.
“She should be in the Nibi City Museum. You guys can just go there. I don’t want to see her.”
Xiao Mao and his sister can be said to be very incompatible, because this sister is very gentle to other people, but is a completely different person to Xiao Mao.
“Hey, Xiao Mao, do you have a sister?”
Serena had also known Xiao Mao for a long time and asked him.
Before Xiaomao could answer, Xiaozhi nodded and said, “His sister took good care of me when I was a child. Xiaomao and I should go visit her later. Do you want to come with me?”
“What? I’m not going!”
After hearing Xiaozhi’s remarks, Xiaomao immediately refuted.
After Misty and Serena nodded, Satoshi looked at Mao.
Ten minutes later
“I say, why must I come with you?”
Xiaomao was dragged by Xiaozhi to the front of the Nibe City Museum, looking very helpless.
“Stop talking nonsense, your sister, isn’t it rude of you to not come with me when you pass by?”
Xiaozhi looked at Xiaomao, who seemed to have lost hope in life, and said.
Looking at the two people singing in unison, the two women couldn’t help but laugh secretly.
These two guys have a pretty good relationship.
Soon, after Xiaozhi explained his purpose to the staff, he was taken to the door of a lounge.
Xiaozhi immediately went forward and knocked on the door. Soon, a mature girl opened the door. The girl was Nanami Oki, 22 years old, 4 years older than Xiaozhi and 3 years older than Xiaoxia.
“Hey, Xiaozhi, please come in!”
After Nanami saw Xiaozhi clearly, she immediately invited him.
“Nanami-san, these are my travel companions, Serena and Misty, and that’s your brother. He didn’t want to come, but I dragged him over.”
Xiaozhi introduced them as he invited everyone in.
After hearing this, Ooki Nanami immediately glared at Xiao Mao fiercely, while Xiao Mao was in tears.
“Xiaozhi, I can’t let you play like this…”
Seeing that Xiaozhi and the other two had already entered the room, while Xiaomao was still complaining outside, Nanami directly closed the door. The sound of the door closing scared Xiaozhi so much.
“no…”
Xiao Mao wondered why his sister was like this, so he went to knock on the door again, only to find that although the door was closed loudly, it was not locked.
Xiao Mao hurried in, not daring to delay any longer.
“Xiaozhi, how are you guys doing lately? Is Aunt Hanako doing well?”
After Nanami sat on the sofa, she started to ask Xiaozhi about his well-being and the situation of his neighbors and friends.
The atmosphere was originally joyful, but Nanami’s words soon made Serena’s face fall.
“Xiaozhi, how is Lan Yatou? Are you her boyfriend? I remember you two were together every day when you were little?”
Xiao Mao heard this and immediately stepped forward and said, “Xiao Lan is fine. He has left Nibi City and should be catching Pipi on Yuejian Mountain now.”
“Did I ask you?”
Nanami scolded her brother again.
At this time, Xiaozhi didn’t seem to notice the cold atmosphere and said, “Xiaolan, it’s been a long time.”
Nanami seemed unwilling to give up and asked again: “So do you like Lan Yatou? Or what kind of girls do you like?”
At this time, everyone pricked up their ears again, looking forward to Xiaozhi’s answer.
“I like the powerful ones.”
(I am about to vomit from writing these past two days, brothers. I will try my best to update to 6 chapters tomorrow. Please support me with monthly tickets, flowers and collections.)
Chapter 47: Nanami’s Invitation (Old Version)
Xiaozhi took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.
This answer shocked everyone. No, this is the boy’s mate selection standard! ?
Beautiful, sexy, cute, pure, energetic, which one of these answers is not good?
Now Xiaozhi has a powerful one?
“Ah…haha, so that’s how it is…ah, by the way, let’s not talk about this anymore. We are going to hold a competition at the Nibi City Museum soon. Do you want to participate?”
Nanami saw that Xiao Mao’s face was knotted with expression as he gave him secret signals, so she finally had to change the subject.
“Are there any prizes?”
When Xiaozhi heard this, he instantly became interested and asked.
“The first prize is 100,000 yuan, and they can choose a first-level fossil. The second prize is 80,000 yuan, and they can choose a second-level fossil. The third prize is 50,000 yuan, and they can also choose a second-level fossil.”
As we all know, fossils are divided into first-level and second-level. No matter what kind of elf it is, the older it is and the longer it took to become a fossil, the stronger the ancient bloodline it will possess after it is resurrected. Ancient bloodline determines the talent and potential of a fossil elf, which can be said to be very important.
“What? There’s money to be made? I want to join in too!”
But what Nanami just said was not attracted by Xiaozhi, but Xiaomao who was very short of money.
This time Nanami nodded and said, “This is the Nibi Arena Tournament co-organized by the Nibi Museum and the Nibi Gym. The gym leader Xiaogang will also participate in this event. It’s just right, Xiaomao, aren’t you feeling smug about defeating Xiaogang? This time, they are really going all out in the arena. You can see their true strength then.”
Xiao Mao arrogantly waved his hands and said, “Oh, oh, I was just defeated. Even though he didn’t show his true strength, I still beat him and got the gray badge.”
Xiaozhi then noticed that Xiaomao had actually challenged the Nibi Gym and obtained the badge.
But I also feel sad for Xiaomao’s arrogance. If he meets him in the ring next time, Xiaomao will be in big trouble.
“Okay, I’ll sign up, what are the rules?”
Xiaozhi thought about it and thought it might be a good idea to fight against the real Xiaogang here, so he agreed.
“The rules are that trainers recommended by gyms or museums become champions. Each champion can advance by defeating 10 challengers. If a champion is defeated by a challenger, the challenger will replace the original champion. After defeating ten challengers, they will advance. The champions who advance to the next level will fight against each other to determine the final winner.”
Nanami explained.
“So how many finalists are there?”
Xiaoxia discovered the doubts in the rules at this time and asked.
“There are four champions in total. If you want, I can help you sign up. Anyway, the first champion is given by the museum and the gym.”
Nanami explained again.
“Oh, by the way, besides you two and the Nibi Gym Leader Xiao Gang, we are still short of a champion. Do you have any recommendations?”
Xiao Mao immediately shook his head. After all, this guy always drove when he traveled, so how could he possibly meet other friends?
Xiaozhi was about to say no, but Serena did pull him, “Xiaozhi, there is a candidate. He should be in Nibi City now.”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but be stunned, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood who Serena was talking about.
Fifteen minutes later, a young man wearing a green baseball cap and a girl who looked like Joey appeared at the door of the lounge of the Nibi Museum.
“You are Satoshi’s friend Hiro, right? Come in quickly.”
Nanami greeted the two of them.
Not long ago, Hong and Molly, who were resting at the Pokémon Center, received a call from Satoshi.
After Xiaozhi explained what happened, Hiro immediately agreed. After all, after coming out of Viridian Forest, he also captured a few Pokémon except Toucan, and it seemed like a good opportunity to train himself.
After introducing Hiro to Xiao Mao and Nanami, Nanami was stunned when she saw Molly next to her.
“You said you were Miss Joy from Viridian City? Then could the explosion at the Pokémon Center in Viridian City be…”
Nanami didn’t dare to finish her words. She had also seen the news, and she really couldn’t imagine that the “Pikachu that can cause a big explosion” described in the news was actually this one, and that it was Xiaozhi’s friend. This world was too crazy.
“Oh… that was indeed an accident on our part… but we really didn’t mean to blow up the Pokémon Center! We were just trying to protect the safety of the Pokémons there!”
At this point, Hiro couldn’t help scratching his head.
But then again, I actually met these three idiots again in the Evergreen Forest.
These three idiots wanted to snatch Ryan away, calling him a freak, but in the end they failed to steal the chicken and ended up losing the rice. They also indirectly helped Ahong capture a new Pokémon.
“That’s actually the case. You guys come here and wait for me at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. I’ll tell you what to pay attention to and then we’ll start the activity at 9 o’clock.”
The three of them agreed, and then returned to the Pokémon Center together.
(I have been really busy these past few days. This chapter should be here today. I should write one or two battles a day for the following battles. This chapter is relatively short.)
(Spoiler alert: there will be a battle between Hiro and Satoshi, and a battle between Satoshi and Brock, so please stay tuned.)
Chapter 48: Nibi Arena Tournament (Old Version)
Soon, the next day, Xiaozhi, Ahong, Xiaomao, and Xiaogang, who was not familiar with everyone, arrived at the door of the Nibi Museum in advance.
“Oh? You’re the trainer who challenged me that day. You’re pretty good. It seems Miss Nanami is good at selecting people.”
Nanami hadn’t come out yet, so Xiaogang spoke to Xiaomao, who looked familiar.
“Of course. After all, that woman is my sister. Hahahaha.”
When Xiao Mao heard Xiao Gang say this, he immediately said very arrogantly.
But when Xiaogang heard what Xiaomao said, he immediately moved closer to Xiaomao and asked anxiously: “What? Are you Miss Nanami’s brother?”
Xiao Mao couldn’t help but be slightly stunned and nodded, very confused as to why this seemingly very calm gym leader turned into this state when his sister was mentioned.
“So it’s you! My dearest brother-in-law!”
Xiaogang said something shocking, holding Xiaomao’s hand and said.
At this time, Nanami slowly walked out of the museum. When she saw the scene in front of her, she immediately understood what had happened.
Since I moved to Nibi City, I have been with Xiaogang for a long time, so I naturally understand what kind of personality this guy has.
I fall in love with every girl I meet, and I can’t walk when I see a pretty girl…
“Mr. Xiaogang, can you please let go of my brother’s hand?”
Nanami said pretending to be angry.
“yes!”
At this time, Xiaogang let go of the confused Xiaomao and came to Nanami.
“Ms. Nanami! You are as beautiful as ever today! Please agree to date me on the condition that we get married!”
Nanami sighed, thinking that this guy had started again, and ignored the crazy Xiaogang, saying to the three people, “Ignore this guy, come on, I’ll take you to the competition venue.”
Ignoring Xiaogang who was feeling sad after being rejected again, Nanami took the three of them to the venue of the tournament.
But the further he walked, the more he felt something was wrong.
This route…why is it so similar…
Before Xiaozhi could finish his thought, he heard Nanami say, “We’re here. This is it.”
The three of them looked up and were stunned when they saw the building in front of them.
“Nibi Gym!?” *3
Satoshi, Hiro, and Shaggy all came to this city to challenge this gym, so how could they not recognize the handsome logo on the gym’s sign?
“That’s right. The venue for this competition is my gym, the Nibi Gym! Since we are cooperating with the Nibi Museum, it can’t be just the museum that gives out prizes. Our Nibi Gym will not only provide a battle venue, but also rewards.”
Xiaogang appeared out of nowhere at this time and spoke slowly.
“You guys? What rewards can the Alliance Gym give?”
Hiro then asked.
After all, the salary that the League Gym pays to the gym owner is not actually very generous. They just get free resources provided by the League. To put it bluntly, it is a stable position for trainers.
You can also fight against challengers to improve your strength.
To be honest, Hong doesn’t really believe what resources or rewards the gym trainers can give.
And you have to know that Xiaogang has many brothers and sisters. Even if Xiaozhi who is in Pallet Town doesn’t know, how could Hiro who is in Viridian City not know?
“Of course that’s my gym badge! The three people who successfully advance as champions will receive the gray badge that symbolizes passing the Nibi Gym test!”
Having said that, Xiaogang seemed like a different person. It was as if the unreliable Xiaogang that the three of them had just seen had never been there.
“Tsk, I already have that thing.”
Xiao Mao snorted disdainfully.
Xiaogang then looked at Xiaomao, his sharp squinting eyes seemed to see through Xiaomao, which made Xiaomao break out in a cold sweat.
“What…what do you want to do?”
Xiao Mao pretended to be calm, but his tone lacked some firmness.
“If you can defeat me in the ring, I will give you an extra reward.”
Xiao Gang said seriously.
At this time Xiao Mao also got angry. He thought that if he could defeat Xiao Gang once, he could definitely defeat Xiao Gang a second time.
“Who’s afraid of who?”
Nanami overheard the tense conversation between the two and couldn’t help but feel resentful in her heart.
This Xiao Mao is in big trouble.
I hope Xiaogang doesn’t let him lose too badly…
Ten minutes later, the ring match finally began. Xiaozhi, Xiaomao, Ahong, and Xiaogang were waiting for the challenger to arrive on the ring.
At this time, the stage was already crowded with trainers who wanted to challenge and spectators who came to join in the fun.
Soon, the four of them defeated trainer after trainer.
In fact, most of those who came to challenge were novice trainers or students in Nibe City. They were very weak, but it was not easy for them to deal with them.
Because some trainers have six Pokémon, it is not easy for Ash, the champion, to defeat them all.
The first game, the second game, the third game…the ninth game, and soon it was the tenth game.
The elves sent out by the four were all breathing heavily.
It is worth mentioning that Hiro, Shiro and Brock have already sent out their second Pokémon, but Satoshi is still sending out his first one.
The reason is simple. The person sent out by Xiaozhi was Riolu, and he didn’t say a word the whole time, using wave guidance to give commands.
The opponent has no way of predicting where Riolu’s next attack will come from, and because his own strength is relatively weak, he is often defeated by Riolu without even hitting him with a single move.
Xiaozhi also discovered that when he was fighting with Riolu, using the power of waves to command seemed to consume much less of his own physical strength.
If I were to command Pikachu in such a high-intensity battle, I would have to use the power of waves to command the entire time, and I would have been exhausted long ago.
But in fact, Xiaozhi is not having an easy time now.
Riolu, on the other hand, became more and more courageous as the battle went on, his fatigue already being masked by the adrenaline from the continuous fighting.
“Barbie, come back.”
When Hiro saw that his Butterfree was so tired that it could hardly flap its wings, he immediately retracted it and released his next Pokémon.
“Bully, I’ll leave the rest to you.”
The first one Hiro sent out was Paras, which he captured in Viridian Forest. The second one he sent out was Butterfree. The third one he sent out was Toucan, which Xiaozhi was very familiar with.
Then Ryan should be used as the trump card and prepared to appear in the next battle.
“Come back, Pidgeot.”
At this time, Xiao Mao also took back his second Pokémon and threw out the third one.
“Thunder ball, go ahead!”
Xiaomao’s third one was actually a Thunderball, and the first one was a very powerful Rattata. The strength of this Rattata amazed Xiaozhi. It was extremely fast. The reason for being replaced was not because of fatigue, but because it fell into an abnormal state of poisoning and could not continue fighting on the field.
Xiaogang remained silent, indicating that he would continue fighting.
The Pokémon that Xiaogang sent out on the field now is a huge stone.
Rumble Stone.
The strength is very strong, and the level is as high as that of a gym beginner.
When Xiao Mao challenged the gym, this Rumble Stone was used as his trump card.
Soon, the tenth battle ended and all four of them successfully defended their titles.
But what shocked the audience the most was not Brock, the gym trainer in their own city, but Satoshi, who was able to give orders in the battle without saying a word!
One against ten!
It’s not ten Pokémons, it’s ten trainers.
Although Xiaozhi is tired now, he is very happy. After these battles, Riolu’s strength has changed from advanced level to elite level.
You have to know that Pikachu trained with me for two years. Although I was studying at that time and had no special training, it still took me two full years to train Pikachu from advanced level to elite level.
But Riolu did it in one go.
Chapter 49: Xiao Mao vs. Xiao Gang (Old Version)
After the first round of the competition, four people successfully defended their title, and the next step was to determine their rankings.
At Brock’s request, Mao and he will have the first battle, while Hong and Satoshi will have the second battle.
The game was about to begin. At this time, Xiaogang had already gone to the battlefield, while Xiaomao was sitting next to Xiaozhi.
“Xiaozhi, watch out, I, the number one genius in Pallet Town, will show you a textbook victory!”
Xiao Mao said seriously.
“Come on.”
Xiaozhi just said helplessly.
The rules for qualifying in the Nibbe Tournament are that you can only use the six Pokémon you registered for the preliminary round, and you cannot use medicine on the Pokémon during the entire competition. You have to fight to the end until one side’s trainer has no Pokémon left to use. As a gym trainer, if Brock didn’t deliberately let go, he would definitely have more than one Pokémon on him now.
You have to know that Xiaomao has to face a serious battle with Xiaogang, and you have to know that the only Pokémon that Xiaomao can fight with now is the original Pokémon Squirtle.
It is still unknown how many Pokémon Xiaogang has, and the Rhydon, which is the trump card in the usual gym battles, has not consumed much energy.
If you say that Xiaomao’s Squirtle can defeat six people at once, and the one he defeated is a gym trainer, who would believe it?
Xiao Mao slowly walked onto the battle stage, looked at the serious Xiao Gang, and said seriously: “I will defeat you! Prove my title of genius!”
“Then come on! Go! Rumble Stone!”
Xiaogang threw a Poké Ball, and the Rhydon that had originally fought on the field came on the field again.
In the preliminary round just now, only one of Xiaogang’s Geodudes lost its combat ability, but the rest of his combat power is still intact.
It’s different for Xiaomao. He only has four Pokémon in total. Rattata is poisoned, and none of the other Pokémon, except Squirtle, can fight.
Burn your boats and fight to the death.
“Little Rada, prove it to him!”
Xiaomao threw a Poké Ball, and a Rattata with a purple glow on its face appeared.
It was obvious that Rattata was in poor physical condition now, while Rhydon had only suffered minor injuries.
“Use Rockfall!”
Xiaogang attacked without hesitation.
Countless rocks appeared around Rumblestone and flew towards Rattata.
“Get out of the way! And gather your energy!”
At Xiaomao’s command, the little Rada started moving immediately, leaving everyone watching dumbfounded.
This little Rattata’s speed is definitely not inferior to Ash’s Pikachu and Hiro’s Ryan.
After quickly dodging the falling rocks, Rada immediately kicked his legs, and his attention, which he thought was starting to dissipate from the poison, began to focus again.
But the poisoning caused Rada’s body to tremble. Xiao Mao realized that he could not delay any longer and immediately ordered: “Kill Fangs!”
The exposed teeth of the little Rattata seemed to be instantly endowed with energy, becoming extremely sharp, and rushed towards the Rumble Stone.
“Sharp Stone Attack!”
How could Xiaogang just sit there and wait for death? He immediately fought back. Countless rocks rose from the ground and blocked the way of Rattata.
“Break through it! Come on!”
Xiao Mao had now made up his mind and said without hesitation.
The terrifying thing is that Rattata actually broke through the rocks and attacked the Rumble Rock.
“Right now, use brute force!”
Xiao Mao saw that the time was ripe and immediately gave the order.
Reckless attack is a move that makes the opponent’s physical strength become the same as your own. This move made Xiaozhi in the audience frown.
Can this guy be counted to this level?
It turns out that when Xiao Mao saw that Rattata was poisoned, he had this consideration when he replaced him…
Looking at the Rumble Stone that suddenly became painful, Xiao Gang couldn’t help but feel a little surprised.
What is surprising is not the brute force trick, but the talent of this little Rattata.
He actually managed to knock away the sharp stone attack!
In the blink of an eye as Xiao Mao gave the order, Rattata made another move, white light emanating from his body, and rushed towards the Rumble Stone.
Suddenly, dust rose on the field.
Xiaogang glanced at Xiaomao, as if affirming his opponent.
The dust cleared, revealing the fallen Rumblestone and the Rattata standing tall on the field.
But as the purple light flashed again on little Rada’s face, little Rada seemed to have lost all his strength and fell to the ground.
“Rattata, Rumblestone loses its combat capability at the same time!”
The referee announced at this time.
“Amazing! That little Rattata has such great strength and speed!”
Ahong couldn’t help but sigh.
“I admit to the speed, but the strength… heh…”
“That’s enough power to break through sharp stone attacks! Isn’t it big? Ryan has practiced close combat for so long, but he may not be able to break through such a powerful attack.”
Hiro was very confused when he heard what Xiaozhi said and said.
“What if we double Ryan’s strength? He should be able to break through the stone easily.”
Xiaozhi shook his head and explained.
“You mean, Rattata’s power just doubled?”
Ah Hong was also an understanding man, and immediately asked again.
Xiaozhi nodded, glanced at Ahong, and said, “Do you know the perseverance characteristic?”
“will?”
Seeing Hiro’s confused face, Xiaozhi continued, “Perseverance means that when a Pokémon is in an abnormal state, its strength will increase.”
“This time, Xiao Mao was lucky. He poisoned the Rattata in advance, triggering its perseverance trait. The talent and potential of that Rattata are indeed terrifying. But if you say that the Rattata can defeat a junior Rumblebot in a gym under normal circumstances, I will never believe it even if you kill me.”
You have to know that a normal Rattata doesn’t have any skills to attack the Rumble Stone, and the effects are all ineffective. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to win.
“Thank you for your hard work, little Rada.”
Xiao Mao touched Rattata’s Poké Ball, as if to thank Rattata for its contribution.
Finally, he took out his last Poké Ball, pressed a button, and slowly kissed it on the lips. This action gave many people goose bumps.
“Go! My baby!”
Xiaomao immediately threw out his Poké Ball, and a blue turtle appeared, Squirtle, Xiaomao’s starting Pokémon.
“Is it really a water attribute? Never mind, I won’t play with you anymore. Come on, Cradle Lily.”
Xiaogang threw the Poké Ball casually, and a green plant-shaped Pokémon appeared.
“As expected, you are here, Cradle Lily.”
Nanami who was standing by couldn’t help but speak.
This Cradle Lily was resurrected from the Nibi Museum using fossils found in Sinnoh.
“Alas, Xiao Mao can’t win this game.”
The moment he saw Cradle Lily, Xiaozhi spoke.
The reason is simple. Cradle Lily is the most powerful Pokémon that can restrain water-attribute Pokémon among all rock-attribute Pokémon.
Not only because it has grass attributes, but also because it has that special characteristic – water diversion.
Chapter 50 Xiao Mao’s Failure (Old Version)
“Squirtle, come on, use the water gun!”
Although it’s just a basic water gun move, it’s very powerful. This Squirtle is truly extremely talented. Satoshi doesn’t believe that Professor Oak didn’t select it specifically for Squirtle.
Unfortunately, Tentacle Lily just stayed where it was and easily took the water gun, and it seemed that its physical strength had increased a lot.
“Don’t waste your energy. As a rock-type gym leader, how could I not be aware of water-type attacks? This tentacle lily’s characteristic is to attract water. I specially trained a Pokémon to deal with this kind of situation.”
Xiaogang said slowly that in the previous gym battle, Xiaomao used this Squirtle to defeat his Rhydon, so Xiaogang was very familiar with this Squirtle’s moves.
“Damn it, use the rocket headbutt!”
Xiao Mao didn’t seem to intend to give in just like that, and immediately gave orders to Squirtle.
The Rocket Headbutt requires charging, so Squirtle immediately retracted his head and accumulated energy.
“Parasitic seeds.”
Xiao Gang ordered expressionlessly.
As a seed shot out from Tentacle Lily’s body, it instantly reached Squirtle’s body.
The parasitic seeds exploded, and the branches wrapped around Squirtle, who was accumulating strength, and the tentacle lily continued to suck Squirtle’s energy.
“Rocket Headbutt, fire!”
Xiao Mao suddenly panicked, clenched his fists and gave the order.
The rocket header at this time is not fully charged, so the speed and force of the collision are half of the normal rocket header, or slightly more than half.
“Next, use Rooting.”
Xiaogang could have let Tentacle Lily dodge this move easily, but he chose to take it head-on, not only because he wanted Xiaomao to understand his own strength, but also because he wanted Tentacle Lily to use a recovery move – Rooting.
Although rooting will restrict the movement of the tentacle lily, it can continuously allow the tentacle lily to recover. Combined with the recovery of the parasitic seeds, even if it takes the ineffective rocket headbutt, it will not feel any pain.
“You…use Bite!”
Xiao Mao now understood that he and Squirtle could never be a match for this Tentacle Lily. His proud water-attribute moves were completely ineffective, and the opponent had continuous recovery.
On the other hand, his Squirtle was trapped in the Parasitic Seed, and not only was his movement restricted, but his physical strength was also drained every round.
“It’s over, energy ball.”
Xiaogang immediately gave the order, and as Tentacle Lily released an energy ball, Squirtle seemed to have lost his mind and had no intention of dodging.
The energy ball hits Squirtle head-on, and Squirtle loses his ability to fight, and the game ends.
“Squirtle loses the ability to fight! Tentacle Lily wins! Since Trainer Xiaomao no longer has any Pokémon that can fight, the winner of this match is Trainer Xiaogang!”
If the first match, the battle between Rhydon and Rattata, and the one between Shaggy and Brock were considered evenly matched, then the second match, the battle between Squirtle and Tentacle Lily, was an old man teasing a naughty boy, with Brock slaughtering the whole thing one-sidedly, and it could be said that Tentacle Lily didn’t lose any strength at all.
Xiaozhi, who was watching in the audience, couldn’t help but shook his head. The level of this Tentacle Lily was actually about the same as that of Squirtle. If he had properly utilized the bite and other damaging moves, his chance of winning might have been 20% to 30%. However, Xiaomao was defeated this time because of his own mentality, so that he didn’t even dodge or command when Xiaogang launched the attack.
On the stage, Xiao Mao looked at his Squirtle and his eyes went dark.
Xiaozhi said to Ahong who was standing beside him.
And Hiro nodded as well.
“Xiaozhi, can I ask you a favor?”
Hiro asked Satoshi as they walked away.
“What’s up?”
Xiaozhi turned around and looked at Ahong, even though he already knew what the other person wanted to say, he still asked.
“I want to use my Ren to have a battle with your Pikachu. I want to know how big the gap is between us and a normal Pikachu!”
Hiro continued.
Even though Ryan can now use electrical skin to overcome electrical resistance, that word in Ryan’s heart still exists. Ahong hopes that Ryan can eliminate his previous inferiority complex in this battle.
Xiaozhi thought about it and finally shook his head, “I’m sorry, I can’t give you a definite answer, because I have a better plan to defeat you than letting Pikachu fight.”
When Hiro heard Xiaozhi’s refusal, he continued to walk towards Xiaozhi and begged, “Please! This battle is very important to us. So, if Ren loses to Pikachu, I will just admit defeat.”
Hearing this, Xiaozhi frowned.
Ahong was actually willing to give up the victory of the entire battle just for a battle between Ryan and his own Pikachu.
Xiaozhi didn’t say anything and walked towards the ring on his own.
Ahong looked at Xiaozhi’s back with complicated feelings.
The two of them arrived at the battlefield. Hiro waved his hand and Ryan appeared. His iconic curly hair moved in the wind, and the aura he released was very powerful.
But there was one detail that did not escape Xiaozhi’s eyes. Ryan’s body was shaking a little. It should be that Ahong had explained something to Ryan before going on the court.
Xiaozhi sighed, this guy actually has such low self-esteem…
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but feel a little distressed. Ryan was different from other Pikachus since birth. He couldn’t use electricity, which made his growth path not smooth.
But because of this, it has a strong body and extremely high speed, but due to electrical obstruction, it will always feel inferior in front of its own kind.
Even though he is now proficient in using electricity, Ryan can’t help but lower his head when facing his own kind.
“All right….”
Xiaozhi originally wanted to send out Bruiser and even took out the commemorative ball. Bruiser is of course the best candidate in Xiaozhi’s team to face Ryan.
He has an excellent level and good abilities, so when Hong asked Xiaozhi for a favor, Xiaozhi couldn’t find any reason to agree.
But now, Xiaozhi seemed to see Ahong’s determination and Ryan’s courage to face the shackles in his heart.
“Pikachu, I may have to trouble you.”
Xiaozhi squatted down and said to Pikachu.
In fact, in Xiaozhi’s opinion, Pikachu may not necessarily be able to defeat Ryan. In terms of speed, the two Pokémon are evenly matched. The only difference is that one takes the physical route, and the other takes the special attack route of dual swords.
Pikachu agreed immediately. Originally, Xiaozhi had told it that he would be the first to appear in the battle with Xiaogang, so as to establish an advantage for the subsequent attribute restraint of the Dual Sword Sheath as much as possible.
But now that Pikachu is on the field, the next opponent to be exchanged will have to be the Marmoset, which has a poor offensive effect.
(To explain, in case someone doesn’t know, Steel attribute restrains Rock attribute, Rock attribute resists General attribute)
Chapter 51: Ryan’s Inner Demon (Old Version)
Pikachu immediately jumped onto the field and confronted Ryan, which stunned the audience and trainers in the audience.
Pikachu VS Pikachu?
What’s the point of this? You have to know that the racial value of Pikachu is not ordinary weak.
But soon, the actions of the two Pikachus left them dumbfounded.
Ryan’s body was instantly wrapped in electricity, and his electrical skin properties were triggered, and he attacked Pikachu.
“Shadow clone.”
Xiaozhi gave the order without any emotion on his face.
In an instant, Pikachu created countless clones, the number of clones was frightening. You should know that the number of clones created by the shadow clone is determined by the basic speed of using the Pokémon. Normally, an ordinary super elite Pokémon can create 8 shadows, and Pikachu summoned as many as 16 shadows!
Ryan’s Flash looks very violent. Unlike the regular Flash which is fast, Ryan’s Flash is full of power.
Unfortunately, it crashed into Pikachu’s clone.
Suddenly, thunderous applause broke out from the audience. With just two moves, the two Pikachus broke the stereotypes that most trainers had of them.
“One hundred thousand volts.”
Xiaozhi immediately gave the order, and Pikachu and its clone instantly released a powerful electric current. Even though only one of them could really cause damage, it was still very entertaining.
When Ryan saw the 100,000-volt move that he couldn’t use, he immediately shrank back, seeming a little scared.
“Don’t be afraid of it, Ryan, we’re moving at high speed, get out of the way!”
Hiro noticed Ren’s uneasy look and quickly gave the order.
Ryan also relied on his fighting instinct to quickly dodge the electric currents that hit him one after another, but because of the fear in his heart, he couldn’t help but slow down his pace.
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frown slightly. Theoretically, Ryan should be able to avoid the 100,000 volts by moving at high speed just now. What on earth is this guy Ahong doing?
“Don’t you dare to hide…”
Ahong felt a little distressed. Pikachu’s 100,000 volts move was quite powerful. Even if the effect was average, with Ryan’s body, how many 100,000 volts could he withstand?
“One more time, one hundred thousand volts.”
“Can’t hide? Then we won’t hide!”
After saying this, Ahong made a shocking decision. He actually let Ryan take the attack head-on without dodging or evading. The moment the 100,000 volts touched Ryan, he was suffocated by the terrible high voltage.
Pikachu continued to increase the electricity, and Ryan’s body, which had fallen in the electric current, slowly stood up.
“See, I told you you could do it! Ryan, stand up and use the 100,000 volts to turn them into your strength! Go ahead, Volt Attack!”
Ryan’s originally frightened look gradually became firm under the electric current, and his whole body burst out with even more powerful electric current under the baptism of 100,000 volts, attacking Pikachu.
“Use a combination of Iron Tail, Electric Ball, and Electric Grid to fight it head-on.”
Xiaozhi shook his head. Pikachu was capable of dodging this Crazy Volt move, but Xiaozhi still chose to let Pikachu fight with Ryan, because he also wanted to know how much difference there was in the power between his Pikachu and Ryan.
Pikachu’s tail hardened instantly, and an electric ball wrapped in an electrical net appeared out of thin air. The entire tail turned into a trace of electric current and attacked Ryan’s Crazy Volt.
“boom!”
An explosion resounded throughout the entire gym. Fortunately, this was the Alliance Gym with a solid structure, so it did not explode like the Pokémon Center in Viridian City.
Although Xiaozhi was looking forward to winning at this time, he was secretly complaining in his heart.
This Ahong is definitely poisonous. Why do I explode every time I encounter him in a battle?
After a long time, the smoke dissipated, revealing a panting Pikachu and the fallen curly-haired Pikachu Ryan.
Pikachu was clearly at a disadvantage in dealing with Ryan’s fatal attack, but too much of his energy had been consumed by the 100,000 Volts, causing Ryan to fall completely after this move.
“Trainer Hiro’s Pikachu loses its ability to fight, and Trainer Satoshi’s Pikachu wins.”
After seeing the situation on the field clearly, Ahong sighed, helped Ryan up and put him in his arms.
Sure enough, the gap between me and Xiaozhi is still very big…
“Referee, I give up.”
Hiro sighed and said.
Xiaozhi quickly stopped him and said, “Ahong, you don’t have to admit defeat just because of what you said to me at that time. Your Toucans still have the ability to fight, so let them out.”
Hiro shook his head again: “You keep your word. Thank you, Xiaozhi, for sending Pikachu to fight with us. Referee, I admit defeat.”
“Since Trainer Hiro has admitted defeat, the winner of this battle is Trainer Satoshi!”
The referee announced after getting Hiro’s confirmation.
But there was no booing from the audience. Instead, there was warm applause because the two of them brought a wonderful game here.
It is worth mentioning that Xiaomao never came back after leaving the Nibe Gym. He was supposed to come back to have a match with Hiro to decide the third and fourth place, but Xiaomao did not come back until the match started, and Hiro eventually won without a fight and got the third place in the match. Next was the much-anticipated final, the battle between Satoshi and Brock.
“Xiaozhi, your battle just now was very exciting. I will use my strongest strength to fight you later. If you succeed in defeating me, this gray badge will be yours.”
Xiaogang patted Xiaozhi on the shoulder and said seriously.
“I also hope that every gym leader can fight me at their strongest level.”
At this time, two girls came to Xiaozhi and his friend.
“Xiaozhi, you are so silly, why didn’t you wake us up?”
Serena pouted and questioned Xiaozhi, looking very cute.
“That’s right, you’re so stupid, you didn’t even invite us to such an important gym competition!”
Xiaoxia also said from the side.
But when Xiaogang saw Xiaoxia, he was surprised and pointed at Xiaoxia and said.
“You are Hua Lan…”
“Shh!”
Seeing that Xiaogang was about to reveal his identity, Xiaoxia hurriedly stopped him.
But at this time, Xiaozhi had already realized that Xiaoxia must be hiding something from him, and said, “You are very famous, Xiaoxia. The uncle selling stones just now knows you, and now the gym owner also knows you. Who are you in Cerulean City?”
“I am just an ordinary citizen of Cerulean City…”
Seeing that Misty was unwilling to admit it, Xiaozhi simply stopped asking and sat down on the stool to eat the breakfast that Serena brought for Xiaozhi.
But Xiao Gang did pinch his chin and mutter, “Uncle selling stones…?”
At this time, all the morning games had ended, and Ash and Brock’s game would start in 2 hours, so Ash simply went back to the Pokémon Center to look for Mao.
I didn’t expect this guy to leave without saying a word, but it was true. Xiao Mao had been spoiled since he was a child. He had never suffered such a big blow before. I might as well let him calm down alone.
But in this state, running to Yuejian Mountain alone…is it okay? Is it really okay?
Chapter 52: Bloody Battle at Rumblestone (Old Version)
Soon, two hours later, Xiaozhi and Xiaogang arrived at the Nibe Gym on time.
Since this was the final, there were many more spectators in the venue than in the previous games, and the people in Nibi City were very enthusiastic, with cheers coming one after another.
“Xiaozhi, come on!”
“You can’t lose!”
Misty and Serena were also in the crowd cheering for Ash, but Ash couldn’t hear them at all in such a huge crowd.
At Brock’s suggestion, the organizers held this competition as both the Nibe Gym Challenge and the Nibe Arena Finals. Ash and Brock can both heal their Pokémon and then continue fighting, unlike in the Arena where they have to fight continuously, giving the two a chance to go all out.
“Now in progress is the Nibi Arena Tournament Finals and the Nibi Gym Challenge. The two sides are the Nibi Gym Master Brock and Satoshi from Pallet Town. The rules of the competition are that gym trainers can use three Pokémon, while challengers can use all of their Pokémon. There is no guessing game. Challengers attack first, and gym trainers give priority to sending out Pokémon. Gym trainers cannot change Pokémon, but challengers can change at will. Now, the battle begins!”
“Rumble Stone, let him see our rock will!”
Xiaogang immediately threw out the first Poké Ball, which was a Rhydon. The Pokémon that usually served as the finale of the Nibe Gym became the starting player today, which shows how much importance Xiaogang attached to the competition this time.
“Riolu, I’m counting on you from now on!”
Riolu appears. Even though it is just born, it has gained some combat experience after a series of battles in the ring, and confronts Rhydon.
“Vacuum Wave, then get close to him and use Bullet Punch.”
Xiaozhi ordered without hesitation.
Riolu immediately took action, sending out a wave of light that was not very powerful but extremely fast.
When the light wave hit Rumble Stone’s face, Riolu moved again and came to Rumble Stone’s side almost instantly.
His fist turned into hard steel, hitting the rumbling stone again and again, making a “bang bang” sound.
After the last punch knocked the Rumble Stone away, it fell to the ground.
“Have you had enough fighting? Use rolling.”
After Riolu’s combo, due to the large level gap, it did not cause any particularly serious damage to Rhydon. Rhydon immediately fought back, turned into a ball, and rolled towards Riolu.
However, the first roll was very weak in both power and speed, and Riolu dodged it with a light jump, while Xiaozhi secretly used the wave guide to give the order:
(“Get close to him and use your strength.”)
Under Xiaozhi’s command, Riolu immediately approached Rhydon and slapped it with one palm, instantly knocking Rhydon away again.
Xiao Gang couldn’t help but frown. Xiaozhi shouldn’t have given any orders just now, but the Riolu actually acted on its own? No, that’s not right. With Xiaozhi’s level, this shouldn’t happen. So there was only one reason left, that they were communicating in a way that he didn’t know about.
As expected of Xiaogang, he guessed Xiaozhi’s trump card in just one try. However, it was useless to guess it, because rolling was a continuous move, and the power and speed would increase exponentially each time.
Xiaozhi looked at the Rumble Stone that was rolling faster and faster, but he still let it continue to be used, allowing Riolu to use its speed advantage to constantly dodge. However, the speed of the Rumble Stone was indeed getting faster and faster, and Riolu could no longer dodge it.
This scared Misty and Serena who were watching the fight. If they continued like this, Riolu would be hit sooner or later, and one hit would probably be enough to defeat him. They were very puzzled by Satoshi’s behavior.
“Xiaozhi, fight back!”
“That’s right, Xiaozhi, what are you doing!”
The two girls shouted anxiously.
There was no way Riolu could dodge the next move, but Xiaozhi gave an unexpected command.
“Riolu, hold on, and return double.”
Xiaogang was stunned. Xiaozhi was actually waiting for him here.
Hold On is a move that can prevent the Pokémon from being completely defeated by the next move, while Double Retaliation returns double the physical damage received to the attacker.
“Rumble Stone! Get out of the way! Don’t attack Riolu!” Xiaogang shouted hurriedly.
But with such a powerful rolling move, with Rumble Stone’s current speed and strength, even it itself can’t control the direction, so how can it cancel the attack?
But if Riolu stood in front of Rumblestone like this, using his strength to block the powerful damage of the rolling, and then punched Rumblestone, it would be completely knocked away.
This time it was no longer as weak as the previous attack, and Rhydon really suffered.
“Come back, Riolu.”
Xiaozhi immediately took back Riolu. Now Riolu was already a dying candle in the wind, so when facing Rhydon whose health was also unhealthy, Xiaozhi chose to take it back.
“Pikachu, I’ll leave the rest to you.”
Xiaozhi said as he patted Pikachu.
Pikachu immediately came on the scene and confronted Rumblestone.
“The grid holds him in check.”
Since Rumblestone is of ground attribute, its electric attribute is ineffective, but Ash can also control it through the power grid.
After all, Rhydon is in poor condition right now, so it would be best if the fast and controlled Pikachu could come on the field to harvest the spoils.
Then a huge net came towards Rumbling Stone, causing it to struggle subconsciously.
Pikachu immediately walked towards the Rumble Stone.
“It’s coming, use Rockfall!”
When Xiaogang saw Pikachu approaching, he quickly gave the order.
Xiaozhi said expressionlessly, as if everything was within his calculations.
Pikachu’s tail hardened and broke up all the falling rocks, and finally hit Rhydon’s head with one tail.
Hit the mark! Excellent effect!
Longlongshi suddenly felt stars in his eyes and fell down completely. Mosquito-repellent circles flashed in his eyes, and it was obvious that he had lost his ability to fight.
“Rumble Stone loses the ability to fight, Pikachu wins!”
Although it seems that Ash won this battle easily, he spent a Pokémon to win. Although Riolu has not lost its fighting ability, it cannot go on the field. Next, Ash will face two more powerful Pokémon of Brock.
And how should Xiaozhi deal with it?
(There should be another update at noon)
Chapter 53 The Big Bang (Old Version)
Xiaozhi’s tactics shocked Xiaogang. He didn’t expect that this guy would use Riolu as a trade-off and Pikachu as a harvester to defeat his Rhythm.
“Thank you, Rumblestone. You can have a good rest.”
Xiaogang took back his Rhythm. The rhythm of the last game was completely controlled by Xiaozhi, and he couldn’t continue like this next time.
So, Xiaogang’s hand, which was originally on the Tentacle Lily Poké Ball, turned to the side.
“Our will of stone, please lend me a helping hand.”
“Go ahead, Rumble Rock!”
Xiaogang’s second Pokémon is the evolved form of the previous Rumble, Rumble.
Compared to the Rumble Stone, it has a rounder body, a higher level, and stronger defense and attack capabilities.
“Rhydon… Come back first, Pikachu.”
Xiaozhi made a decision immediately. Pikachu would be at a disadvantage against Rhydon, which had rock and ground attributes, and Pikachu might be needed to clear the field next time, so Xiaozhi immediately replaced Pikachu.
“Basketbeast, I leave it to you.”
Xiaozhi threw it casually, and a white commemorative ball was thrown out.
The Marmoset appeared on the field and immediately confronted its opponent, Rhydon.
“High five surprise attack.”
Xiaozhi immediately gave the order, the high-five surprise attack is a move that can only be used when the opponent just appears, taking advantage of the opponent’s unpreparedness, which will cause the opponent to fall into a state of cowardice for a period of time and unable to use other moves.
Xiaozhi’s playing style seemed to be not much different from the previous game. He took advantage of the first move to seize the initiative in the battle and finally won the game in one fell swoop.
“Next, charge up your Qi fist.”
Use the flinch created by the high-five to gain time to charge the marsupial’s Chi Fist.
The Chi Fist is similar to the Rocket Headbutt. It requires charging for a period of time before it can be used and is extremely powerful.
There was no way Xiaogang could just sit there and wait for death, so he took action immediately after Rhydon’s fear gradually faded away.
“Rumble Rock, use sharp stone attack!”
At Xiaogang’s command, Rhydon stomped hard on the ground, and sharp stones instantly rose from the ground and attacked the marsupial.
At this time, the Qi fist was also fully charged and launched instantly. The extremely powerful fist of the marsupial beast collided with the sharp stones.
The marsupial using fighting-attribute moves was naturally immune to the sharp stone attack, and the marsupial’s own strength level was not bad, so the sharp stone was pierced through. Even though the power of the Qi Fist was reduced a little, it still hit Rhydon in the end.
This guy.
Xiaogang couldn’t help but frown. Not only was his combat level superb, but his Pokémon were also extremely strong. Even a super elite Pokémon could fight back and forth with a gym-level Pokémon. Is this really a newcomer?
No, the Riolu just now should not even be at the super elite level.
As expected, even if Rhydon defeated this marsupial, he probably would not have much physical strength left.
Thinking of this, Xiaogang immediately made a decision.
“Rumble Rock, use Invisible Rock!”
Xiaozhi also instantly understood Xiaogang’s intention and immediately ordered: “Stop him quickly and destroy the death light!”
The marsupial instantly gathered energy and hit Rhodon, but Rhodon just threw it around and sharp stones appeared on the ground before disappearing.
As Rhydon finished his move, the destructive death ray was instantly activated and hit Rhydon in the face.
The effect is average, but it hits the mark.
Moreover, Rhydon was not a Pokémon with very high defense, so the destructive ray immediately knocked Rhydon away.
“Big bang! Rumble Rock!”
“What?!”
Xiaogang waved his hand, and Rhydon’s unstable body in the sky instantly burst out with terrible energy.
Xiaozhi was a little dumbfounded by Xiaogang’s reckless fighting style.
It’s just a gym battle… I don’t think it’s that serious… There was a big explosion…
The Big Bang is a powerful move, and after using it, you will completely lose your ability to fight.
It’s okay if this move is used less frequently, but if it is used too often, it will be extremely harmful to the elf’s body.
Suddenly, the explosion sucked the Biceps into it, and the huge aftermath even made Pikachu and Xiaozhi on the sidelines unable to stand steadily.
After the explosion ended and the smoke dissipated, the two elves on the field fell down at the same time.
“Basicorn and Rhydon both lose their ability to fight!”
Xiaozhi let out a long sigh. He was far from being able to display the full strength of the Beast in this battle.
The main reason is that Xiaogang fought too decisively and his decisions were very correct.
Otherwise, in this battle, although Biceps’ level is not as high as Rhydon’s, Ash is still confident of winning.
Xiaozhi took out the commemorative ball, took back the Marmoset, and his expression became serious again.
Who’s going to play now?
Pikachu immediately asked.
I haven’t had enough fun fighting this battle yet, I’m just reaping the benefits.
“Okay, Pikachu, I’ll leave it to you.”
Xiaozhi said slowly.
Pikachu immediately jumped onto the stage without any hesitation.
“Is that the Pikachu? This should be your trump card. Then I’ll give it to you and let you see my trump card!”
“Go, the little elf that symbolizes the will of rock—Onix!”
Xiaogang threw another Poké Ball. This time, he had taken off his shirt without knowing when, and looked very determined.
A huge monster appeared on the field. Pikachu was not even as big as its face. The audience below was instantly excited.
Nibi City is a city that symbolizes the will of rock, and this giant Onix is ??obviously the Pokémon that every citizen here yearns for.
At this time, Misty looked at Ash and Pikachu with some heartache, because the chances of winning this game were really too slim.
“He won’t lose.”
Serena is as confident in Xiaozhi as ever. No matter how strong the opponent is, she believes that Xiaozhi will not lose so easily.
On the battlefield, Xiaozhi used the system to scan the data of this Onix, and frowned when he saw the level.
Gym-level pinnacle?
It turns out that Xiaogang’s strength is so strong…
“Xiaozhi! You are the first challenger who can make me use Onix. I admire you very much!”
Xiaogang opened his arms, revealing his dark and strong muscles, and said.
But suddenly Xiaogang changed the subject: “So, I will definitely defeat you! For the glory of Nibi City!”
What glory… Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frown. If he wanted to win, then he wanted to win. Why did he have to say such things, making it seem like he was a villain who destroyed the city.
But the reason why Xiaogang said this was very simple. Of course, if the championship of the Nibi Arena in Nibi City was taken away by a foreigner, he would lose his reputation.
What’s more…Xiaogang glanced at a young man who was watching at the bottom of the field.
This boy is younger than Xiaogang and is his younger brother Jiro.
Xiaogang has many brothers and sisters in his family, and earning more money means he can bring more food to his family.
Although Xiaogang’s salary is not low, it is really not enough to support so many people, and Xiaogang also has to spend part of the money to train his own elves. Now he is almost unable to make ends meet.
For the sake of his family, Xiaogang also had reasons not to lose, so he sent out his ace Pokémon – Onix.
Chapter 54 Power Amplifier (Old Version)
Pikachu and Onix were confronting each other on the competition field, but at this time, Wu Neng came under the field.
“It’s been a long time since I came back…”
Wu Neng looked at the Nibi Gym, the place he once fought for, and couldn’t help but sigh.
Wu Neng looked at Xiaogang on the battlefield, shook his head and sighed.
But when he saw Pikachu, his eyes showed approval.
“That boy has indeed discovered it… maybe he can really defeat Xiaogang…”
On the playing field, the battle begins.
“Pikachu, use 100,000 volts.”
Xiaozhi’s order made everyone stunned. You know, the electric-attribute moves released by Pikachu are ineffective against Onix, which has the ground attribute.
But Xiaoxia, who was off the field, quickly discovered what was different about 100,000 Volts this time.
This 100,000 volts move is thicker than the 100,000 volts Pikachu usually uses, which means that the current density is stronger.
The terrifying electric current erupted from Pikachu’s petite body again. This time, the current density was much higher than when it fought with Ahong in the morning. The released electric current was no longer a golden lightning spear, but a thick and twisted whip, which bombarded Onix.
One hundred thousand volts exploded in Onix. Even with Onix’s powerful level, it couldn’t help but roared in anger due to the powerful electric current, and its body actually bent up.
“The electric attribute 100,000 volts has an effect on the ground attribute Onix… Who on earth is this guy…”
Xiaogang frowned and said as he looked at this unreasonable scene.
You know, the law of nature is that electric-attribute skills should have no effect on ground-attribute Pokémon, so all previous challengers rarely used electric-attribute Pokémon to fight him.
But now the injured Onix shows that the electric current released by this Pikachu can indeed violate the law of attribute restraint.
Even Xiaoxia and Serena in the audience looked puzzled.
In the entire venue, only Xiaozhi and Wu could understand what was going on.
A few days ago, on Route 2, the border between Viridian Forest and Nibi City.
Xiaozhi said after hearing Takeno’s exhortation which sounded like a curse.
“Wait a minute, boy.”
Wu Neng looked at Xiaozhi who was about to leave and quickly stopped him.
“What are you going to do now?”
At this time, Serena and Misty had already come to Xiaozhi, and the three of them were ready to leave, but this uncle stopped them again.
Therefore, Xiaozhi’s tone was very unhappy.
Takeno took a yellow remote from his shop and handed it to Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frowned and asked, “What is this?”
Wu Neng answered the question irrelevantly, saying: “I am actually the former Nibi Gym Leader. I hope you can defeat Xiao Gang.”
After hearing Wu Neng’s words, Xiaozhi’s face was full of questions.
I just asked if this wasn’t the case…and what does this have to do with me?
“Xiaogang is very strong now, but lacks experience. Xiaogang’s trump card is a gym-level Onix. If Xiaogang is allowed to travel, he will have a good chance of becoming a quasi-king.”
Wu Neng continued.
“So, you’re just going to let me defeat him? And then force him to go on a journey?”
Xiaozhi asked expressionlessly.
Seeing Takeno nodded, Xiaozhi continued, “Oh, I don’t believe it.”
After saying that, Xiaozhi turned around and was about to leave. What a joke, but an inexplicable uncle stopped you and said that he was the former gym leader and now wanted to help you defeat Xiaogang.
Who would believe it if I told them?
Just as Xiaozhi was about to leave, he was stopped by Xiaoxia again.
“Ash, he really is the former gym leader.”
Xiaoxia said quickly.
“So what?”
“Hey, just take that thing. What if it can help you improve your strength? Right?”
Seeing Xiaoxia say this, Xiaozhi simply called the system immediately and said.
(“System, help me detect what that thing is.”)
As Xiaozhi called out, the yellow square item information appeared in Xiaozhi’s mind.
Power amplifier
Uses: It contains powerful electricity that can increase the current density of electric-attribute Pokémon, making the released electricity strong enough to penetrate ground-attribute Pokémon. Some Pokémon will evolve after absorbing the electricity.
Seeing this, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frown.
He had seen this power amplifier before when he was fighting on the battle platform in the real world. It was just a very ordinary evolution item. He didn’t expect that it would be such a powerful item in the elf world.
Xiaozhi did not answer, but turned around immediately and took the power amplifier handed to him by Wu Neng.
“This is what’s left over from the abandoned power station on the outskirts of Nibi City. It has absorbed electricity for nearly twenty years. The power contained in it should be enough for your Pikachu to use for now.”
The power amplifier is not only a battle item and evolution item for Pokémon, but also an indispensable item in power stations. It can absorb static electricity around the power station and effectively prevent fires.
Xiaozhi nodded and silently remembered Wu Neng in his heart.
Having received such a big favor, it seems that I must find a way to let Xiaogang go on a trip.
During the lunch break just now, Xiaozhi successfully let Pikachu absorb the electricity in the power amplifier, successfully broke through the bottleneck of the super elite level, and reached the elementary level of the gym. Now the electric current can also penetrate the defense line of the ground-attribute Pokémon.
Seeing how powerful Xiaozhi was, Xiaogang straightened his chest muscles, and his strong muscles instantly became engorged with blood. His dark skin and strong body seemed like a rock. Compared to Xiaozhi, his tall body stood tall on the battlefield.
“This is really interesting. Now watch carefully, Xiaozhi. I will show you my rock will by showing you the rock elf’s strong determination!” Xiaogang said loudly.
“You’re so long-winded, Pikachu, one hundred thousand volts.”
Xiaozhi ordered an attack again. Even though he said it was troublesome, he would not show mercy in the battle.
“Onix, raise a sandstorm!”
Onix swung its hard rock tail towards the rock competition venue that was the characteristic of the Nibi Gym. Suddenly, countless sand, gravel and gravel flew up as if they were controlled, constantly lingering in the air. In the blink of an eye, the Nibi Gym was surrounded by yellow sand, and the sky was filled with yellow sand.
The sandstorm and 100,000 volts collided head-on, and their power was equally matched.
“One hundred thousand volts, and then thunder!”
This time, Xiaozhi used a combination skill. After the power amplifier was added, Pikachu’s move was even more terrifying. Countless thunderclouds formed in the yellow sand and eventually converged with 100,000 volts. The terrifying electric current attacked Onix.
However, this powerful combo didn’t even break through the sandstorm. After all, the hit rate of thunder would be reduced in a sandstorm. Therefore, even Pikachu couldn’t guarantee that all the lightning could converge with 100,000 volts. As the electric current of the combo was completely swallowed up by the yellow sand, Pikachu was actually caught in the sandstorm.
“roar!”
Onix turned into a phantom in the sandstorm and emerged from the dim sandstorm. Pikachu couldn’t even see Onix’s body, and a huge tail lashed towards Pikachu.
This is Onix’s smash, which directly knocked Pikachu away.
“Use the electric grid to slow him down.”
Pikachu was hit by Onix’s tail, but remained calm and threw an electric net towards Onix.
Xiaozhi’s strategy is very simple. Isn’t it because Pikachu can’t see clearly in the sandstorm and sneak attacks? Then reduce your speed to give Pikachu time to react.
Onix was hit head-on by Pikachu’s electric net, but the damage it suffered was not great. After all, rock-attribute Pokémon have the effect of enhanced special defense in a sandstorm, but the reduced speed did make Xiaogang feel a little uncomfortable.
Onix’s speed wasn’t fast to begin with, and it’s even worse now…
Pikachu adjusted his body and landed on the ground. He immediately looked around, trying to find out in advance whether Onix would attack like it did just now. However, he was too far away from Onix at this time. There was only gray dust all around, and there was no trace of Onix.
Xiaozhi closed his eyes, and suddenly, the entire venue became visible. As expected, Onix was still too strong, and he had to use all his strength to defeat it.
(“45 degrees to the right, just ride on it.”)
Xiaozhi’s wave information sounded in Pikachu’s mind, and Pikachu immediately jumped in the direction indicated by Xiaozhi.
But the audience below the venue was boiling with excitement again.
If you want to know why Xiaozhi is so popular, it is because he silently commanded Riolu to win ten consecutive games in the preliminary rounds!
Pikachu jumped lightly and landed on Onix. Onix, which had already been slowed down, didn’t have time to react at all.
In addition, Xiaogang did not hear Xiaozhi’s command and did not remind him, which led to him falling into Xiaozhi’s trap.
“Oh no! Rock Snake, get rid of it quickly!”
Xiaogang thought something was wrong and said quickly.
“One more time, 100,000 volts, and then add thunder.”
This time, there was no uncontrollable direction. The thundercloud just struck Pikachu. Pikachu immediately gathered 100,000 volts and hit Onix at zero distance.
Chapter 55: Take it if you like it (old version)
Onix’s body and head kept twisting in place, trying to shake off Pikachu who was holding on to him tightly, but how could Pikachu let go of the opportunity he had finally gotten? He also held on to Onix’s body tightly. Seeing the thunderclouds gathering and the lightning striking, the electric sac on his face immediately burst out with terrible electricity.
Thunder and 100,000 volts were completely integrated, and the terrible electric current exploded on Onix. Pikachu bombarded Onix at zero distance, causing Onix to scream in pain. Even for him, who had ground attribute, this move caused him a lot of pain.
“Onix, get rid of it quickly!”
Xiaogang once again hurriedly ordered that if he didn’t get rid of Pikachu, he would be in big trouble.
“Use Iron Tail, combined with Electric Ball and Electric Grid!”
“Pika-Pika!”
Pikachu’s hand tightly grasped Onix, and its tail hardened instantly, followed by an electric ball and an electric net, which eventually transformed into a huge electric ball.
Pikachu smashed hard and hit Onix.
This move caused Onix to run around in pain, and the gusts of air it created even swept away all the yellow sand in the Nibe Gym. In an instant, the Nibe Gym returned to its original tranquility.
“One hundred thousand volts again.”
Xiaozhi ordered immediately.
Even though the electricity was still bursting through Pikachu’s body, there wasn’t much electricity left in Pikachu now.
This turned into a battle of wills.
Under Pikachu’s electric shock, Onix continued to twist its body.
In the end, Onix finally left Pikachu behind, but he also fell down due to exhaustion.
Pikachu adjusted his posture in the air, but at this moment he seemed to be tripped by something.
Xiaozhi’s mind skipped a beat, and it turned out that the invisible rock released by Rhydon before had taken effect.
Pikachu fell heavily to the ground, and Onix fell at the same time.
“Pikachu and Onix have lost their ability to fight at the same time! Since Gym Trainer Brock has already lost three Pokémon’s ability to fight, the winner is Challenger Satoshi!”
Suddenly, warm applause broke out in the gym.
The audience did not boo because Xiaozhi was from another place. Instead, they applauded because of the excitement of the game.
Ash came to the front of the field and picked up Pikachu, sighing.
There is always a loophole…Pikachu could have won the battle, but who knew that Xiaogang was so strong that he even calculated the final outcome.
Xiaogang took back Onix and came to Xiaozhi.
“It was a wonderful battle, Xiaozhi. I remember you had a fourth Pokémon, right?”
Xiaozhi nodded, finally acknowledging the fact.
“Amazing! I haven’t experienced such a high-intensity battle in a long time. This is proof that you defeated me, the Gray Badge.”
Xiaogang took out a badge and handed it to Xiaozhi. Xiaozhi took the badge and put it in his pocket.
Then Xiaogang took out two disc-like props from his pocket again and said to Xiaozhi: “This is a skill learning machine. Every challenger has the opportunity to get the rock blockade learning machine specially made by our Nibi Gym. As for this, it is an extra gift, the sandstorm learning machine.”
Xiaozhi nodded, and several tactical systems flashed through his mind. After taking the learning machine, he said to Xiaogang: “You are so strong. If you don’t want to be a gym trainer for the rest of your life, it’s better to go out and travel.”
Xiao Gang was stunned, sighed, and said, “Actually, I also want to go on a trip, but my brothers and sisters at home still need my care.”
To be honest, Xiaogang was very envious of Xiaozhi’s life of traveling. He was very jealous of this kind of life where he could work hard for his dreams.
At this time, the audience had slowly dispersed, leaving only Serena, Xiaoxia, and Wu Neng.
“Go and follow your dreams. I’ll take care of the house.”
Wu Neng spoke slowly.
Xiaogang raised his head suddenly and saw Wu Neng walking in slowly. Wu Neng had untied the hood he had been wearing and looked very similar to Xiaogang. His iconic squinting eyes and strong body seemed to be the labels of the father and son.
“Dad? Why…why are you back?”
Xiaogang looked at his father whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, and felt mixed emotions.
Sure enough, these two guys are father and son.
When Xiaozhi learned that Takeno was the former gym leader of Nibi Gym, he had already made a rough guess.
Next day
“Remember? Jiro likes sushi, Saburo likes miso soup, and Goro likes red bean soup…”
While Xiaogang was constantly explaining household matters to Wu Neng, Xiaozhi and the other two had already packed their luggage and were ready to leave Nibe City.
It is worth mentioning that yesterday, Ahong submitted a battle application to Xiaogang, but he got the badge directly.
However, with Ahong’s strength, it is not a problem at all to get this badge.
After that, Hiro’s path was different from that of Xiaozhi. Hiro did not plan to go through Mount Tsukimi to Cerulean City to challenge the water-attributed Cerulean Gym. Instead, he took the sea route, took a boat to an island to challenge a doubles gym, and then took a boat back to Vermilion City, finally ending with Cerulean City as the last badge.
Yesterday, Xiaozhi said goodbye to Ahong and Molly, and the two of them have already boarded a boat to go out to sea.
After replenishing their supplies, Ash and his two friends went to the Nibi Museum to collect the fossil that Ash had received in the arena.
It is said that this place contains fossils of all species ever discovered in the world.
Xiaozhi and the other two were taken to the first-level fossils by Nanami for selection.
Xiaozhi used the system to search for a fossil with the thickest ancient bloodline, and finally locked on a fish fin-shaped fossil. The reason was not because of how high the concentration of ancient bloodline was in this fossil, but because this fossil was very beautiful, like a gem, colorful, like a gem, and very beautiful.
“Xiaozhi, that’s a fossil that was recently discovered in Kalos. It’s a very beautiful fossil. Do you want to choose it?”
Nanami said as she glanced at the fossil that Xiaozhi picked up.
When Serena heard this, she not only came closer to Xiaozhi and looked at the fossil, but the moment she saw it, Serena was attracted and couldn’t take her eyes off it.
“Do you want to?”
Xiaozhi asked, seeing that Serena seemed very curious.
Serena nodded subconsciously, but then shook her head as if she had realized what was happening.
“No…No…”
Seeing Serena like this, Xiaozhi said to Nanami.
“That’s it.”
After the three of them left the Nibi Museum together, they walked towards the Pokémon Center. After getting their luggage, they set off for Cerulean City.
“Xiaozhi, such a beautiful fossil doesn’t match your style.”
Xiaoxia said sarcastically.
Xiaozhi ignored Xiaoxia and slowed down his pace, leaving Xiaoxia alone in front, constantly mocking Xiaozhi.
While Xiaoxia wasn’t paying attention, he quietly put the fossil into Serena’s hand and said, “Take it if you like it.”
“Eh~”
Xiaozhi’s sudden action made Serena’s face turn red instantly.
Xiaozhi continued forward and came to Xiaoxia.
Don’t get me wrong, Xiaozhi just saw that Serena liked it so much, so he just gave it to her. Besides, Serena had been traveling with him for so long and had always catered to him, never made any requests, and often cooked for him. So it was rare to see Serena like something so much, so he just gave it to her.
But Xiaozhi couldn’t help feeling a little regretful, because among those fossils there was indeed one with very strong ancient bloodline.
(Do you want Xiaogang to join the team?)
Chapter 56: Xiaogang’s Choice (Old Version)
After packing their luggage, the three of them prepared to leave Nibi City.
After checking the map, Ash looked at Misty and decided to go to Cerulean City to challenge the gym there.
Because Xiaoxia’s hometown is Hualan City, she can take this opportunity to go home and visit.
But Xiaoxia is weird.
“Hey, let’s not go to Cerulean City. Let’s take a boat like Hiro and challenge other gyms…”
The three of them gradually walked towards Route 3, and Xiaoxia kept complaining along the way.
“What are you talking about? Do you know that there are no ships going out to sea in the short term?”
Xiaozhi sighed. He had planned the route this way originally for Misty and Serena, but he didn’t expect that his good intentions would lead to a bad outcome.
Xiaoxia doesn’t even want to go back to her hometown.
“That’s right, Cerulean City is your hometown, it would be nice to go back and take a look.”
Serena also echoed from the side.
“But….”
Xiaoxia was about to explain to you two, but at this moment a familiar voice sounded in the ears of the three.
Unexpectedly, the person running towards them was the Nibe Gym Leader, Brock!
After coordinating matters at home, Xiaogang is finally ready to set off on his journey.
Originally, he should have embarked on the journey of becoming stronger alone, but before the journey began, he couldn’t help but ask himself.
Is it really true that you set out on a journey by yourself just for the title of quasi-king of the world?
If that’s the case, I should be able to get it if I continue to be a trainer in the gym for a few more years.
In other words, do you really want to be a trainer?
In the past, I became a gym trainer to earn a living for my family, but now? Now I can embark on a journey and follow my dreams.
So is my dream really to be a trainer?
After a night of contemplation, what flashed through Xiaogang’s mind was not the scene of fighting with his friends.
It’s about the little things in daily life with my friends.
Although life is hard, it is nothing with your company.
So, Xiaogang finally thought of his own path—to become a breeder!
Of course, this doesn’t mean that Xiaogang doesn’t care about his own strength, but he hopes to become a strong breeder who can take good care of the Pokémon.
But this process may be prolonged a lot.
————
“That’s the thing, Xiaozhi. From now on I will join you in your journey.”
After hearing Xiaogang’s lengthy explanation, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but feel regretful.
If Xiaogang can persist in his path as a trainer, he should be able to become the quasi-king of the Kanto region in the near future.
Each place has 8 gym trainers certified by the league, 6 quasi-kings, 4 kings and one champion. The resources distributed by the league are different for different professions.
But now that Xiaogang has chosen the path of a breeder, it will be difficult for him to make substantial progress in a short period of time…
“So, Xiaozhi, can I travel with you guys?”
Xiaogang could see Xiaozhi’s extraordinaryness at a glance, and thought that following such a young man would definitely be helpful to him.
“I don’t mind. It’s up to you whether there are two or three of you. Uh… Serena, Xiaoxia, what do you think?”
Serena agreed immediately. In her opinion, Brock was a very reliable person, and if he joined the trip, it would be a huge help to Satoshi.
“Hey…you are not from Cerulean City…”
When Xiaogang saw Xiaoxia for the first time, he immediately recognized her and said in surprise.
“Hey!!! I have no problem with that either, you want to join us, right!?”
Seeing that her identity was about to be revealed again, Xiaoxia stopped him immediately and made a gesture to Xiaogang to keep quiet.
Xiaogang also reacted quickly. The understanding Xiaogang instantly understood that Xiaoxia might have encountered some difficulties and could not tell Xiaozhi her identity.
“But then again, Xiaoxia, how long are you going to follow me?”
In fact, Xiaozhi has always been puzzled as to why Xiaoxia wanted to follow him. It seemed that he and Serena were originally traveling together, but he didn’t know when Xiaoxia became a part of them.
Xiaoxia blushed and said, “Don’t forget about the bicycle! I will not leave you until you give me back the bicycle!”
“You can ask Hiro for that matter! It wasn’t me who caused the electric shock!”
“Just tell me if it was you who caused it!”
Xiaozhi sighed. He really couldn’t beat this woman, so he waved his hand and said, “Okay, I get it!”
Seeing that Xiaoxia kept muttering beside him, Xiaozhi had no choice but to run forward.
Soon, Xiaozhi and his group arrived at Route 3 together.
“Xiaozhi, I actually never understood. When you were fighting me, what method did you use to give orders silently?”
When Bron joins the team, he asks about details he didn’t understand from his previous battle with Ash.
“By the way, speaking of this, Riolu, come out.”
Xiaozhi threw one of his Poké Balls and Riolu appeared.
Just yesterday, Xiaozhi opened the system’s shopping mall interface and found that he already had nearly 20,000 points, so he prepared to buy some things he needed.
In the mall, Xiaozhi was surprised to see the training method that Yalang used to train his Lucario, so he immediately spent 6000 points to buy it.
Now, it’s time to use it.
(“System, help me find Riolu’s training method.”)
As soon as Xiaozhi had this thought, a memory suddenly appeared in his mind. It felt like a personal experience, as if he was Aaron and had trained with Lucario for a long time.
What surprised Xiaozhi was that it actually took the form of text and turned into notes, appearing out of thin air in his backpack.
“Riolu, after so many battles, how do you feel now?” After releasing Riolu, Xiaozhi bent down and asked.
This Riolu is stubborn and doesn’t seem to like communicating with others. It didn’t respond to Xiaozhi’s words but nodded. However, Xiaozhi’s next action was unexpected.
Xiaozhi was not surprised. This Riolu was just born not long ago, and it was very common for it to not be able to use the power of waves to communicate with others.
(“Try to communicate with me through the power of the wave, like this.”)
Ash used the power of the wave to send the message, just like he did during a battle, to Riolu.
Riolu was a little hesitant, but still followed Xiaozhi’s way and tried to send out the message.
But what made Xiaozhi feel uncomfortable was that this Riolu was not proficient in using the power of waves, and the information it transmitted was very vague. Moreover, it was not transmitted to Xiaozhi alone, so the three people around him could hear it.
“What’s that sound!?”
Xiaogang looked around but didn’t see anything, so he looked at Xiaozhi and Riolu in confusion.
But the second time I saw Misty and Serena, they were looking at Satoshi in surprise.
“We are doing special training on the power of wave.”
“I see, you are the boy from Pallet Town who possesses the power of wave guidance?”
Xiaogang showed a strange expression, as if telling Xiaozhi “No wonder”
Chapter 57: Disobedient Gyarados (Old Version)
Xiaoxia also understood instantly.
But Serena didn’t understand what was going on and still looked at Xiaozhi with great curiosity.
“Eh? Just close your eyes like this?”
Serena was very surprised to hear this, because Xiaozhi and Riolu didn’t move at all, they just closed their eyes.
“If I remember correctly, the power of wave is a spiritual ability. Although Xiaozhi and Pikachu seemed to have done nothing and just closed their eyes, in the past second Xiaozhi and Riolu were feeling the power of wave emitted by each other and reading information from it.”
Xiaogang explained.
Serena nodded thoughtfully and said with some emotion: “What an amazing ability… No wonder Smart can talk to Pikachu, it turns out this is how it works.”
Even though it was the first time Serena heard of this ability, there were many people with super powers discovered in the Alliance so far, so she quickly accepted it.
“It’s okay. After all, we’re just starting out. I will definitely train you to be the most powerful Lucario in the world.” Seeing that the feedback from the wave released by Riolu was a little sad, Xiaozhi did not use the wave this time, but said softly.
These are not empty words. Xiaozhi has enough confidence in this Riolu. After all, it is the offspring of Alang’s Lucario, and its qualifications and potential are very strong. In addition, with Xiaozhi, a trainer who possesses the power of wave, it is inevitable that it will become the strongest.
Riolu also looked at Xiaozhi very seriously. Although it is still very weak now, its master is very extraordinary. The terrible wave power on Xiaozhi’s body makes Riolu admire him very much. He has felt this powerful force when he was an egg, so Riolu admires Xiaozhi very much.
The moment Riolu broke out of the egg under the power of Satoshi’s waves, he decided to become Satoshi’s partner forever.
Next, Xiaozhi blindfolded Riolu and asked Riolu to continue walking using the perception of wave power.
But to the surprise of the three, Xiaozhi himself had also covered his eyes with a handkerchief.
“Xiaozhi, you are too reckless!”
“Are you really okay?”
“That’s right, this is really dangerous…”
The three of them saw Xiaozhi’s reckless behavior and wanted to stop him immediately.
“(Don’t worry, I have been training in wave power for many years.)”
Suddenly, Xiaozhi’s voice appeared strangely in the minds of Brock, Misty, and Serena. All three of them were startled, after all, they had never experienced such a thing before.
“(Don’t worry, I am using the power of waveguide to send you information, similar to telepathy. But when I enter this state, I can grasp some movements within a radius of 50 meters at any time, so I have the confidence to do such training, do you understand?)”
Xiaozhi used the power of wave guidance to patiently explain.
Even though this is a bit tiring, I’m willing to be a little tired for the sake of Riolu’s training.
The three of them were relieved, but Serena was still a little worried. She kept pulling at the corner of Xiaozhi’s clothes and her eyes kept scanning Xiaozhi’s figure, fearing that Xiaozhi would fall or have an accident if he was not careful.
Route 3 is separated from Nibe City and Mt. Tsukimi, and is about three days’ journey. Satoshi walked for five days because of his training, but on the third night, the four of them rested on Route 3. Brock was responsible for cooking, Serena was responsible for making desserts, and Satoshi and Misty were responsible for looking for fruits. Soon, a sumptuous dinner was prepared.
Several people released their own Pokémon. Brock had four Pokémon in total, Geodude, Rhydon, Rhydon, and Onix. Ash also had four… no, including Brawler, five to be exact, Pikachu, Brawler, Brawler, Scabbard, and Riolu, whose control over the power of wave has greatly increased during this period.
After five days of special training, Xiaozhi successfully guided Riolu to use the wave power. Now he has slowly learned to use the wave power to explore the environment, and can also use the wave power to communicate with Pokémon in simple ways.
Serena only has one Pokémon, which is the Starter Pokémon Vixen. That’s not a big deal, since she is a novice trainer after all, but Misty also only has one Pokémon.
It was the jewel starfish I had seen before.
“Hey, Xiaoxia, your Starfish is at least at the gym level, right? Do you really only have one Pokémon now?”
Xiaozhi asked curiously.
But this question stumped Xiaoxia. She smiled bitterly and said, “Yes, I did bring two elves with me when I went out, but do you really want the second one?”
Misty said as she pulled a Poké Ball out of her pocket.
“What’s this? Let’s take a look.”
Xiao Gang also said without comment.
He knew Misty’s identity, so of course he also understood that Misty’s second Pokémon should be as extraordinary as this Gem Starfish.
“You guys said this… Don’t laugh at me when the time comes…”
Xiaoxia sighed and then threw a Poké Ball.
What Xiaozhi didn’t expect was that a huge monster suddenly jumped out of the Poké Ball, which was only slightly larger than Xiaogang’s Onix.
This Pokémon was all blue and looked majestic. Ash recognized it immediately. It was the evolved form of Magikarp, Gyarados.
But when he saw the system data, Xiaozhi was immediately dumbfounded.
Quasi-king level peak?
The moment Gyarados came out, he glanced at Misty and then fell into a deep sleep.
What’s going on?! He doesn’t even listen to his trainer?
In this world, when the level of a Pokémon does not match the trainer’s command level, a situation will arise where the Pokémon does not take the trainer seriously at all and has no will to fight in battle.
“That’s it. It’s Daddy’s Pokémon. I used to be afraid of Gyarados so I didn’t dare to get in touch with it. Later, Daddy gave it to me before he went on a trip. Who knew it wouldn’t listen to me at all? That’s why I’m traveling.”
There is a detail that Xiaoxia didn’t mention. The reason why she was fishing on Route 1 at that time was because Gyarados entered the river and was unwilling to come out until it rained and thundered, so it returned to the Poké Ball.
Misty looked very helpless, and then she put Gyarados back into the Poké Ball.
“That’s normal. It would be strange if a peak Quasi-King level elf could recognize you.”
Xiaozhi said this very unemotionally.
“So I’m traveling now… No, Xiaozhi, how do you know its level?”
Xiaoxia answered subconsciously but then felt something was wrong and asked immediately.
You know, it’s very difficult to tell the level of a Pokémon just by looking at it. Xiaozhi just said it too quickly.
“Hey, can’t you tell the level?”
Serena asked in confusion.
“Yes, unless you are a very experienced trainer, it is usually difficult to directly guess the level of a Pokémon.”
You should know that the level assessment of the opponent’s Pokémon is also a very important part of the battle, and many new Pokémon will make things worse due to misjudgment of the level.
Chapter 58 The Hateful Magikarp Uncle (Old Version)
After several days of special training on Route 3, Riolu’s control over the power of waves has significantly improved, and Satoshi and his crew have gradually become familiar with each other.
Now, they finally crossed Route 3 and arrived at the foot of Mount Tsukimi.
Mt. Tsukimi is a peaceful and relaxing resort with fresh air. Since it is separated from Nibe City and Cerulean City, many trainers arrive here every year. It is said that there is a moonstone vein here, and many mountaineers are digging something with pickaxes in this mountain.
“Single scabbard, holy sword.”
Following Xiaozhi’s order, the scabbard sword slashed out, and the last Pokémon in the hands of the mountaineer who challenged him fell.
This marked the official entry of Mt. Yuemizan into their territory.
“Thank you for your hard work, Xiaozhi.”
“A great fight.”
Misty and Brock came forward to praise him, and they were very impressed by Satoshi’s quick and decisive fighting style.
Serena came to Xiaozhi with a small bottle of water.
Xiaozhi also took the bottle of mineral water. After each battle, Serena would carefully provide logistical support for him.
But every time this happened, Xiaogang and Xiaoxia would laugh secretly, but Xiaozhi was too lazy to pay attention.
“After crossing this mountain, you will reach Cerulean City. You will then challenge the gym there, right? It is said that it is a water-attributed gym.”
Xiaogang said, looking at Xiaoxia meaningfully.
Xiaoxia quickly avoided his gaze, pretended to be busy and started wandering around.
Xiaozhi nodded. Pikachu should be able to deal with a water-attribute gym easily.
However, there was one thing that made Xiaozhi feel very wrong. There didn’t seem to be many trainers on Mount Tsukimi right now. He looked around from the foot of the mountain, and even when he was almost at the entrance of the cross-mountain tunnel, he still didn’t see a single trainer. There were only some mountaineers holding pickaxes and mining.
It was already evening, and Satoshi and his crew did not plan to enter Mt. Moon directly. Instead, they planned to stay at the Pokémon Center at the foot of Mt. Moon for one night, and then prepare supplies and props such as ropes to escape from the cave before entering Mt. Moon.
After all, there are so many of them, and ensuring safety is the most important thing.
After entering the Pokémon Center, a middle-aged man wearing a mask suddenly came up to Ash and his group and bumped into him.
“Hey, old man, what are you doing?”
Xiaozhi was not a good-tempered person, and he immediately cursed.
For some reason, Xiaozhi has no good feelings towards this shifty old man.
“Xiaozhi! Forget it.”
Xiaoxia was afraid that he would cause trouble, so she quickly pulled Xiaozhi back and stood between the two of them as a peacemaker.
The uncle was very angry when he heard Xiaozhi’s words, but suddenly his facial expression became kind.
“Oh, young man, sorry, sorry, come with me as compensation.”
Looking at the uncle’s flattering expression, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frown.
But he seemed to be curious about what the other party was up to, and immediately said to Xiao Gang and the other two, “I’ll go with him to take a look, you guys go and book a room first.”
Serena wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Xiaogang.
“Don’t worry, Xiaozhi will be fine. We just need to go and book a room for him.”
Xiaogang and Xiaozhi exchanged glances and then grabbed Serena.
The old man knew something was wrong at first sight. Rather than letting Serena cause trouble, it would be better to let Xiaozhi solve it himself.
“Yes, yes. Xiaozhi can handle it by himself.”
Xiaoxia also agreed.
Then the three of them went to the front desk of the Moon Mountain Elf Center.
On the other side, Xiaozhi followed the uncle to the corner of the Pokémon Center.
“Hey boy, do you want a sparkle elf?”
The uncle said mysteriously.
“Shiny Pokémon?”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but laugh. A trainer might not see a Shiny Pokémon in his entire life. Even Professor Oak had only seen less than 6 Shiny Pokémon, and that included Xiaozhi’s scabbard.
“Yes, the Shiny Elf, I got it from an Elf Doctor. How about I sell it to you as an apology?”
The uncle in front of me said something shocking.
You have to know that buying and selling Pokémons is an absolute illegal act. If discovered by the Alliance, you will be sent to jail for life. But after all, every world has its own dark side, and there are still many people doing it in places that the Alliance cannot see.
When Xiaozhi heard this, he thought about it.
The appeal of Shiny Pokémon to a trainer was so great that Xiaozhi finally nodded.
“What kind of elf is that?”
Xiaozhi asked in a low voice.
“It’s the shining golden carp, the king of carp, the Magikarp.”
The uncle introduced it in a very slick way, and it was obvious that he did these things frequently.
“Magikarp…”
After Magikarp evolves, it becomes Gyarados. Misty also has one. This kind of Pokémon is very powerful and is worth cultivating.
“Okay, I’ll buy it.”
Xiaozhi immediately decided that he didn’t think he was a good person. If he violated the rules of the alliance, then he violated it. Besides, being able to rescue the Magikarp that was being transported everywhere for business seemed to be a good choice.
“Oh, young man, you have a good eye. It is said that this creature can also produce gold. Just think about it, one egg laid is worth 10,000 taels of gold. After 10,000 eggs grow up, they will lay 10,000 times more eggs. If 10,000 eggs are laid again, that is an astronomical figure. Now I will give you 10,000 yuan and you can take it away directly…”
The uncle started to talk nonstop without even thinking before he started telling lies.
“stop!”
But it would have been better if the uncle didn’t say it. Now that he told Xiaozhi, Xiaozhi has a reason to question the truth of what the other person said. After all, it was too fake. If it was true, why would he buy it for himself?
“Let the elf out first so I can take a look.”
Xiaozhi said to the uncle with a look of doubt on his face.
The uncle’s expression froze for a moment, but he still took out a Poké Ball and threw it casually. A golden carp appeared in front of Xiaozhi.
But Xiaozhi could tell at a glance that something was wrong with this Magikarp. The Magikarp’s eyes were very empty, and gold powder fell as it slapped the ground.
Seeing this, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but get furious. The other party actually painted gold dye and sprinkled gold powder on Magikarp to cheat him.
“Come here!”
Xiaozhi picked up the Magikarp uncle and scolded him: “Why did you treat Magikarp like this? Do you know what it feels like to have paint and gold dust sprinkled on your body for so long?”
As Xiaozhi spoke, he slapped Magikarp on the face. Even though Magikarp was not his Pokémon, Xiaozhi felt very distressed when he saw the empty look in Magikarp’s eyes.
The noise here instantly alarmed Joey and Brock. At this time, Serena and Misty had already returned to the room to take a shower. Only Brock was observing the situation here because he was worried about Satoshi.
“Stop! What the hell are you doing!?”
Miss Joy, not knowing the whole story, immediately stepped forward to stop them.
“Ah, Miss Joy… You are so beautiful… No, Xiaozhi, let go!”
Xiaogang was infatuated with Joey for a while before he immediately reacted and quickly reminded him.
Only then did Xiaozhi look at Magikarp with disdain and told the two of them what had just happened.
“What? You’re actually buying and selling Pokémons in the Pokémon Center! How bold!”
“It’s unforgivable that you bullied Magikarp like this!”
After understanding what happened, Xiaogang and Joey glared at Magikarp.
At this time, Uncle Magikarp was covering his swollen face, wanting to cry but unable to. After all, no one could have expected that this young man would beat him up in an instant.
Half an hour later, Miss Junsha from Nibi City arrived and arrested the Magikarp uncle. Xiaozhi helped wash the dye off the Magikarp’s body. Looking at this Magikarp, Xiaozhi always felt something was strange.
Xiaozhi used the waveguide to communicate with Magikarp many times, but Magikarp never responded. Finally, Xiaozhi had to release Magikarp back into the lake at the foot of Mt. Tsukimi.
Chapter 59: Moon Viewing Mountain (Old Version)
“Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, are you really going to enter Yuejian Mountain now?”
Because of Uncle Magikarp yesterday, Miss Joy already knew the names of Satoshi and Brock. After all, Satoshi beat someone up yesterday, so in comparison, Brock, who tried to stop the fight, became a good guy in Joy’s eyes, so she had a pretty good impression of Brock.
Seeing Xiaozhi and his three friends getting ready to set off early this morning, he asked.
“Yes, we are leaving now.”
Xiao Gang answered very enthusiastically.
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but roll his eyes. Xiaogang looks steady and reliable, but he is actually a big sister fan. He can’t walk when he sees a beautiful girl.
“But it’s better not to go up the mountain now.”
Miss Joy paused and continued, “Now there is an organization on Mt. Tsukimi, and they have been mining ore there. Trainers passing by are blocked and can’t get through, so there are basically no people on the mountain now.”
Miss Joy sighed. Yuejian Mountain is usually bustling with people, so an elf center was set up here. Who would have known that it would fall into such a situation now.
“Ah…I see, Xiaozhi, what do you think?”
Everyone looked at Xiaozhi. After all, Xiaozhi was the backbone of the group. He was the one who wanted to challenge the Alliance Gym, so the decision-making power naturally belonged to Xiaozhi.
“Let’s go up and take a look. If we can’t get through, we can go back to Nibi City and take a boat to challenge other gyms.”
Xiaozhi thought about it and said.
After all, before they left, the ship to another gym city had already left. If there was no ship to take back now, it would be better to wander around Mt. Tsukimi, just in case the people from the mining organization suddenly left.
So everyone nodded, said goodbye to Miss Joy, and walked towards the cross-mountain cave of Yuejian Mountain together.
Right at the entrance of the Yuejianshan Cave, a wooden sign appeared in front of everyone.
“Warning, a large number of Zubats have appeared recently, please be safe, please be safe.”
“Zubat.”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but be slightly stunned. If this Pokémon could evolve into Xbat, it should be able to demonstrate good strength in battle. However, Xiaozhi had no intention of capturing it because in this world, although people knew that Zubat could evolve into Xbat, the method of evolution had not yet been discovered. If one was unlucky, it might not be able to evolve in a lifetime.
Serena shrank her neck in fear, but Brock and Misty walked very calmly. After all, their hometowns were both backed by Mount Moon and were even connected by Mount Moon. Pokémon like Zubat were often seen, so the two did not have any extra expressions.
But Xiaozhi frowned slightly. After all, Zubats were common in caves, but if he knew about it, how could others not know? There must be something wrong with being able to check a warning on a sign here.
“Don’t be afraid, Serena. As long as we are careful, it will be fine. Zubat is a relatively docile Pokémon and generally won’t attack humans. Besides, you have Xiaozhi to protect you.”
Xiao Gang looked at Serena’s frightened expression, immediately pointed at Xiaozhi and said.
“Ah…I…I don’t need to…”
Serena blushed immediately. Since coming to Kanto, the once confident girl has regained her shyness.
“Don’t worry, the Zubats here are of a very low level, nothing will happen.”
When Xiaozhi heard Xiaogang talking about himself, he immediately responded.
It’s a big piece of wood.
Xiaoxia couldn’t help but secretly complain in her heart.
Entering the cave of Yuejian Mountain, it seemed that in order to allow the organization that came here to find ores better, the area around the cave was equipped with electric lights, so there was no need to use the move learning device – Flash bought in Nibi City at all.
However, this environment made Xiaozhi frown, because this long-term artificial application of light would undoubtedly destroy the living environment in the cave, especially for those elves who were more adapted to darkness, their living environment was severely damaged.
“No wonder there’s a sign there warning people to be careful of Zubats. Could it be that this environment is the culprit for the Zubats’ rampage…”
Xiaozhi finally understood how it was possible for a docile Pokémon like Zubat to be marked as dangerous on a billboard. It turned out that the riot was caused by the destruction of its living environment.
Hearing this, Xiao Gang nodded: “It seems to be true.”
Xiaozhi and his three friends were walking in the cave, removing all the incandescent lamps installed there as they walked. At this moment, they suddenly heard screams coming from the front, as well as the flapping of wings and the chaotic cries of elves. In the cave with only a few people, the screams seemed very abrupt, and Xiaogang hurriedly ran up.
Xiaozhi originally wanted to pull Xiaogang along, but adhering to the principle that less trouble is better, it would be better for them not to meddle in other people’s business, since they didn’t know him anyway.
Following Xiaogang’s footsteps, the four of them came to a corner of the cave. A young man wearing a white coat and thick glasses was being attacked by many Zubats. The other party just used his briefcase to cover his face.
The man was dressed like a typical researcher. When he saw someone approaching him, he didn’t care who it was and immediately called for help: “Please, I will pay you, please save me!”
Upon hearing that, Xiaozhi’s body trembled, and he threw Pikachu out almost instantly.
Xiao Gang was about to take out the Poké Ball, but was stunned when he saw Xiaozhi’s actions. He didn’t expect that Xiaozhi had such strong explosive power.
“Pika? (Why am I here?)”
Pikachu was a little confused when he suddenly fell to the ground. He was just on Xiaozhi’s shoulder…
“Don’t worry about those things. Come to work, Pikachu. Use simple electric shock to drive them away. I will buy you ketchup after you get his reward.” Xiaozhi immediately said to Pikachu.
Pikachu cheered up immediately after hearing this. Now Pikachu is very powerful and has reached the initial level of the gym. He can control the power of electric current very well. He only uses the electric current to cause pain to the Zubat and drive it away, but will not directly harm them.
“Good chance, go ahead, Poké Ball!”
Xiaogang seized the opportunity and immediately threw a Poké Ball towards the Zubat flying in the front.
After Pikachu simply consumed some of its energy, Xiaogang luckily captured it successfully.
This guy actually picked up my leak…
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but complain, but he still looked at the man in the white coat over there.
“Hey, are you okay?”
Xiaozhi and his four companions immediately stepped forward and asked.
But that person seemed to be a very strange elf researcher. He suddenly shouted excitedly, “Thank you so much! My name is Neil! I’m an elf researcher! Thank you for saving me, thank you! Thank you for showing your steadfast friendship to rescue me! Thank you!”
“…Psycho. Thanks are fine, but is it really that serious? Did Zubat damage his brain?”
Seeing that the researcher was acting jumpy, Xiaozhi cursed.
Unfortunately, Neil seemed like he couldn’t hear what Xiaozhi said. He was still dancing a strange dance over there, thanking God and the earth endlessly, and even cried in the end. Xiaozhi and the others were stunned.
“Thank you, Heaven! Thank you, Earth! Thank you! Thank you, great sea!”
“Xiaozhi, do you want to call an ambulance for him?”
Xiaoxia even suspected that he was really crazy and suggested to Xiaozhi.
“You can call an ambulance, but let’s stay away from him…”
Serena also hid behind Xiaozhi and said.
After hearing what Serena and Xiaoxia said, Neil finally returned to normal and was able to communicate. He smiled and said, “I’m sorry! My benefactors, I was just moved by your friendship with your Pikachu. By the way, I’m from Nibi City! I’m Neil, a familiar researcher at the Nibi City Museum. My goal is to become the most thorough doctor in fossil research in the world!”
“Ah, the Nibi Museum?”
Everyone was stunned. They didn’t expect that the chief researcher of Nanami’s museum would be such a psychopath.
At this time Serena and Misty suddenly realized what was going on, and couldn’t help but complain in their hearts that almost all researchers are neurotic. Even Professor Oak from Satoshi’s hometown almost turns into a mad scientist when it comes to the topic of Pokémon.
But Xiaozhi didn’t give him any face at all. He went straight to him and said, “I see. No wonder you are so crazy. I don’t know how Nanami communicates with you.”
“Xiaozhi! Don’t be like this…”
Serena immediately pulled the corner of Xiaozhi’s clothes, and then said to Neil: “I’m sorry, Xiaozhi’s words were a bit rude, please don’t take it to heart, he didn’t mean it.”
Chapter 60 Obtaining Fossils (Old Version)
“That doesn’t matter. By the way, do you know Nanami? I am the researcher sent by Nanami to investigate the situation. These people who come to Mt. Tsukimi to mine ore are actually members of Team Rocket! They came to Mt. Tsukimi to mine ore without the consent of our Nibi Museum! And they have seriously damaged the ecological environment of Mt. Tsukimi! Can you help me drive them away?” Nika shook his head, suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked immediately.
When everyone heard this, they turned their heads and looked at Xiaozhi again.
If Xiaozhi doesn’t agree to this, then Xiaogang and Xiaoxia, as his travel companions, will not be able to help even if they want to.
Moreover, Xiaozhi seemed to be in a very bad mood ever since he heard that Mt. Tsukimi was blocked and he and others might have to return by the same route, otherwise he would not have just called Neil a lunatic.
(“I beg you too, great wave guide.”)
Riolu’s wave information came from the Poké Ball. Now Riolu can freely control the wave to communicate with Ash and others. Although the characteristic of Ash’s Riolu is not a heart of justice, the Riolu clan is born with a yearning for justice, which naturally makes Riolu want to help the Pokémon on Mt. Moon restore their homes.
Before Xiaozhi could answer, Neil started to make a fuss: “It’s amazing! What was that just now? Was it telepathy? Was it your Pokémon? Which Pokémon with psychic attributes? Was it Brave? Definitely. There aren’t many Pokémon with psychic attributes in Kanto…”
“Okay, okay, just shut up. I promise you.” Xiaozhi looked at the eager eyes of the crowd and of course knew what they meant. He sighed and finally agreed.
“Thank you!” Although he was very interested in Satoshi’s Pokémon and the inexplicable voice he just heard, Neil immediately chose to take Satoshi to save Mt. Moon.
“let’s go.”
Xiaogang also immediately said to the two girls behind him.
So, Xiaozhi took the lead and walked in front, using the power of waves to explore the road, while the other four followed behind Xiaozhi, and Xiaogang and Xiaoxia were even ready to fight at any time.
“Riolu’s control over the waveguide is still not good enough…”
Xiaozhi recalled the scene just now, but Neil’s words reminded him that now Riolu can only use wave to transmit information, but the transmitted information is not targeted. In the future, Riolu should learn to transmit his own wave information in a targeted manner, unlike now. This will not only allow Riolu to strengthen its control over the wave, but also avoid many troubles caused by the current situation.
Walking on the road of Mt. Moon, Xiaozhi looked around and saw the elves who were tortured and miserable. A trace of anger ignited in his heart.
How dare you make us go on this trip in vain.
How dare you bully the elf like this.
If I meet someone from Team Rocket later, I will definitely not show mercy!
“It’s really abominable.”
“Who is it that’s so excessive!”
“Xiaozhi, let me take care of them later!”
When Serena and the other two saw this, they all said sadly, but Xiaozhi didn’t say anything. Xiaoxia looked at Xiaozhi with a serious face, came to Serena and said, “Hey, that’s a very angry expression.”
Serena also looked at Xiaozhi, and her cold face made her feel a little chilly.
Xiaozhi walked in the front. Although his face looked cold, he was so angry that he could cook a whole dish.
Suddenly, Pikachu shouted and pointed his little hand forward. This time, he didn’t hold ketchup in his hand. The reason was that Xiaozhi was in a really scary state. Any other Pokémon would eat on Xiaozhi’s shoulder in this state. That would be too heartless.
“It should be over there.”
Xiaozhi used the power of waveguide to immediately check the waveguide feedback of the two people, and ran over with a few people. Gradually, a crisp sound of pickaxes knocking appeared, and finally he saw two people and a mouse digging there.
“These three guys look familiar.”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but laugh in his heart.
The people in front of him were wearing black Team Rocket uniforms, a man and a woman, and they were accompanied by a Rattata.
Looking from the back, they look exactly like the three members of Team Rocket.
On the other side…
“A-choo!”
The three members of Team Rocket couldn’t help sneezing as they followed Ahong on a boat to another city.
“Who is like us?”
“It should be cold. It’s really cold on the deck.”
“What can we do, meow? We don’t have the money to pay for the boat fare. We can only hang around on the deck, meow!”
The trio was as miserable as ever, hiding in a corner of the deck, feeling the cool sea breeze.
——
“Hey, who are you guys?”
Xiao Gang saw the two strange people and asked.
“Don’t ask them…”
Before Xiaozhi could finish his words, the man and woman in front of him turned around instantly.
“You actually asked this question sincerely!”
“I will answer you in all my mercy!”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but pat his head, wondering why the people in Team Rocket were so stupid.
“Pikachu, shut them up first, 100,000 volts.”
“Boy, let me go. I am Yamato, the top executive of Team Rocket. If you know how powerful I am, let me go and see how my Rada will defeat you!”
“That’s right. We are high-ranking officials of Team Rocket. I’m Kosaburo. Remember my name!”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but sigh. Even the words they said were exactly the same. Just now, when they were reciting the opening remarks, Xiaozhi directly ordered Pikachu to attack and control them. These two idiots were no different from the Ibit trio, except that this Rattata couldn’t talk and Meowth could talk.
“I really don’t know why Team Rocket’s boss would recruit useless guys like you…”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but sigh, and turned back to Neil and said, “Call the police, and then take down the lights around here, and we’ll go in and see what’s going on. I’ll leave these scum outside to you.”
After saying that, Xiaozhi was about to leave and head deeper into the cave, but was stopped by Neil.
“What happened again?”
Xiaozhi asked impatiently.
Neil didn’t care about Xiaozhi’s attitude and said, “I have actually dug up quite a few fossils here over the years. In order to repay you for saving my life just now, these are my collections. If you don’t mind, you can take them away.”
As he spoke, Neil took out several fossils from his backpack.
Xiaozhi’s interest suddenly piqued, and Xiaogang, Xiaoxia and Serena also came over.
“Xiaozhi, didn’t you just get a fossil in Nibi City? Take it out and show it to Mr. Neil.”
Xiaoxia suggested casually.
“I gave that fossil away.”
Xiaozhi didn’t want to just say it was a gift for Serena. After all, they were all travel companions. It would be awkward if he only gave gifts to Serena and not to others. So Xiaozhi simply kept it secret.
Serena was slightly stunned when she heard this, and when she thought of the fossil that Xiaozhi gave her, she couldn’t help blushing slightly.
“I heard about the fossil you took away. It was sent from Kalos. It is said that there has been no successful case of resurrection yet.”
Xiaozhi nodded, indicating that he understood. After all, they were from the Nibi Museum. Neil’s fossils were of very good quality. After scanning them with the system, Xiaozhi began to hesitate. After careful observation, he said:
“These should be fossils of shells and shells, right?”
Neil nodded. It seemed that Xiaozhi also had some knowledge about fossils.
“Just choose. You’re my savior and also Nanami’s friend. If you take a few away, Nanami won’t blame me.”
Xiaozhi thought about it for a moment, and immediately made up his mind to pick up one of the very good quality shell fossils and shell fossils.
“In that case, let’s take these two pieces.”
Xiaozhi held the two fossils in his hands to weigh them down. These two fossils were much heavier than Serena’s, but the quality was similar.
After Miss Junsha hurriedly arrived and took the two idiots away, Neil walked out of Mount Moon along the same route that Xiaozhi and his four companions had taken. After all, he had not been back to Nibi City for a long time. Now that he had the help of Xiaozhi and his companions, he could take this opportunity to return to the Nibi Museum to see if he could revive the many fossils he had dug up in Mount Moon.
“Congratulations, Xiaozhi, maybe you can get a group of fossil Pokémon in the future.”
Each fossil elf is extremely rare. No one in the research community has ever been able to give a correct answer as to whether they still exist or where they live.
Moreover, because they carry the wild blood passed down from ancient times, the resurrected fossil Pokémon will be much stronger than many wild Pokémon today, and their personalities will not be very good.
“No, this is for you.”
Xiaozhi handed the fossil in his hand to Xiaogang and Xiaoxia, one piece each, and said.
“Ah?”*2
Xiaogang and Xiaoxia were both shocked that Xiaozhi would give them such a precious thing just like that.
“It’s okay, you guys take it. Xiaoxia, this shell fossil is for you. I remember that you only catch water-attribute Pokémons, right? And Xiaogang, this carapace fossil is for you. If nothing goes wrong, it should be of rock attribute.”
As soon as Xiaozhi finished speaking, without giving the two a chance to respond, he continued, “Let’s go. We’ll travel together in the future. Please give me your guidance.”
“You are such an impressive guy.”
“That’s right, why are you like this…”
Xiaogang and Xiaoxia both looked at Xiaozhi with touched faces. From this moment on, they could truly call each other friends.
Serena also smiled, took out her beautiful fossil and shook it in front of the two people, then immediately followed Xiaozhi’s steps.
“So that’s how it is.”
The two of them suddenly realized what was going on and immediately followed Xiaozhi.
Chapter 61: Meeting Xiaolan Again (Old Version)
Moon-viewing mountain basin.
This place is more like a square. After entering the cave, walk along the cross-mountain tunnel. Arriving here means that the journey to Yuejian Mountain is halfway through.
“There is actually such a small square inside Mount Tsukimi…” Xiaozhi, who didn’t know much about Mount Tsukimi, said with some emotion.
“This is a wonder of nature. It is said that the Alliance was also amazed when they first discovered this place.”
Xiaogang patted Xiaozhi’s shoulder and explained.
Surrounded by steep mountains and bumpy caves, the basin is located like a stone plain, which does not seem to be in Mt. Tsukimi. Even though the area of ??this small square is not too large to set up an elf center, a basic B&B stands on this stone plain. There is a pink Pippi painted on the sign of the B&B, which looks very cute.
This is the Tsukimi B&B, which often provides accommodation and food for mountaineers mining on Mt. Tsukimi and passing trainers to prevent anyone from dying accidentally on Mt. Tsukimi.
“Xiaozhi, there are people there, let’s go over there and take a rest.”
Xiaoxia was supported by Serena’s arm and was obviously exhausted, while Serena’s forehead was covered with sweat.
One of the two girls has been learning water ballet since childhood, and the other has been practicing armored rhinoceros riding since childhood. Their physical strength is not comparable to that of ordinary people, but after the baptism of long-term mountain roads, they began to unable to bear it.
Xiaozhi looked at the status of the two, nudged Pikachu’s shoulder, and couldn’t help but sigh and nodded.
Soon, the four of them arrived at the entrance of Yuejian B&B. As soon as they entered, a girl came to the counter next to them. Her voice was not gentle, but a little naughty, but the words she said were very formal, like a child pretending to be an adult.
This girl is wearing a white sun hat with a Poké Ball pattern on it, which is somewhat similar to Satoshi’s baseball cap. However, because her head is too small, the big hat covers the girl’s eyes.
The girl pulled her hat up, and the first person she looked at was Serena, but she still asked subconsciously in a very formal manner: “Welcome! This is the specification of our room, please feel free to choose…”
“Hey! It’s you!”
Before the girl finished her words, she saw Serena in front of her screaming in surprise, and she couldn’t help but ask in surprise: “You…you are the foreign woman who traveled with Xiaozhi!? You are explaining here…Ah! Xiaozhi!”
At this time, the girl was a little surprised to see Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi also shook his head and sighed at this time. He didn’t expect to meet this guy here.
“Xiao Lan, didn’t you leave Nibi City a long time ago? Why are you here?”
Xiaozhi asked, somewhat confused.
Xiaolan first quickly fixed her somewhat sloppy makeup, and then answered: “It’s all because of the Rockets. They are mining ore here and have blocked the road. I can’t leave even if I want to.”
Xiaozhi then realized that Xiaolan had lived here for so long just because of this.
Looking at the two people beside Xiaozhi except Serena, Xiaolan’s dazed expression suddenly turned into confusion.
Isn’t this Xiao Gang, the gym trainer of Nibi Gym? Why did he follow Xiaozhi here?
And who is that woman next to her?
Xiao Lan’s head immediately started to spin rapidly.
Xiaoxia looked at Xiaolan’s actions at this time and couldn’t help but reveal an expression of “so that’s what it is”.
Thinking that Xiaozhi was quite popular, he immediately stepped forward and introduced himself, “Hello, I’m Xiaozhi and Serena’s travel partner, Xiaoxia from Cerulean City. That’s Xiaogang, the gym trainer from Nibi City. We are traveling with Xiaozhi in Kanto now.”
When Blue heard Misty introduce herself, she immediately said, “Hello, I’m Blue from Pallet Town, and this is my partner Bulbasaur. I call her Bulbasaur. Satoshi and I are childhood sweethearts!”
“Seeds, seeds~”
There is also a frog lying next to it that looks like it is carrying a green shell. It is Blue’s starting Pokémon Bulbasaur.
Xiao Lan glanced at Serena and immediately said the words “childhood sweethearts” in a loud voice. Serena turned her head away and pretended not to hear anything.
“Xiao Lan, you haven’t answered my question yet…”
At this time, Xiaozhi interrupted directly and said that when he asked Xiaolan why she appeared here, he was asking why Xiaolan appeared at the front desk of Yuejian B&B as a cashier!
“Oh, actually I’ve always wanted to capture a Pokémon here, but I have no money on me, and there is no signal here, so I can’t ask my family to send me money, so I have to work here to pay for my accommodation…”
Xiao Lan scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and said with a wry smile.
Xiaolan has been looking for this Pokémon here for many days since Team Rocket blocked his way. But up to now, Xiaolan hasn’t even seen the shadow of that Pokémon.
“Elf? Is it Pippi? This kind of elf rarely appears in front of humans. It is said to be an elf from the moon.” Xiaogang guessed immediately. After all, there are only these elves on Mount Yuejian, and the one who meets Xiaolan’s conditions is Pippi.
Xiaolan nodded, confirming Xiaogang’s opinion.
At the same time, a voice appeared in everyone’s ears.
“Xiao Lan, what are you making so much noise for so late at night? The soundproofing here is so poor!”
A hedgehog-headed boy walked out of the room, followed by a turtle Pokémon that was even bigger than Squirtle. Ash recognized it immediately as the evolved form of Squirtle – Squirtle.
After that battle, did Xiaomao evolve Squirtle so quickly?
When Xiaozhi and Xiaomao looked at each other, they nodded to each other. After all, Xiaomao already knew that Xiaozhi would definitely come here soon, because the next ones they were going to challenge were all water-attributed gyms in Cerulean City.
“You’re here?”
“I’m here, you’re making decent progress.”
Xiao Mao saw that Xiao Zhi’s original complaint was reduced to just one sentence, and Xiao Zhi also used one sentence to affirm Xiao Mao’s efforts over the past few days.
Then, Xiao Mao returned to the room again.
“Xiaozhi, what happened to your friend?”
“Xiaozhi, is that person really Xiaomao…”
Xiaoxia and Serena asked one after another.
Xiaoxia saw through Xiaomao’s sadness at a glance, but Serena doubted her own eyes. After all, she knew Xiaomao’s character.
Xiao Lan waved her hand and said, “This guy has been like this since he came here. He doesn’t drive the car anymore, and he doesn’t bring beautiful women with him. He doesn’t have the aura of a stubborn young man at all. It’s really unlike him.”
When Xiaomao first arrived here, Xiaolan started teasing Xiaomao as usual, but soon found out that Xiaomao was not in a very good mood, so the two of them didn’t communicate much in the past few days. One was training hard, and the other was looking for Pipi everywhere.
At this time, Xiaogang came to Xiaozhi and asked him, “Did you find it?”
Xiaozhi replied as a matter of course.
Xiao Gang also nodded: “This guy, I guess I am no match for him now.”
Xiaozhi did not respond, as if he was thinking about something. After a long while, he said to Xiaogang: “This is the strength that guy should have.”
Chapter 62 Explosion (Old Version)
After the incident with his two friends, Xiaozhi ordered two rooms, one for himself and Xiaogang, and one for Xiaoxia and Serena. They will probably have to stay in Mount Moon View for a long time recently, after all, he doesn’t know when Team Rocket will clear the way.
The owner of Yuejian B&B is a girl named Huier, who looks like she is four or five years older than Xiaozhi and the others, about the same age as Xiaogang, and is very beautiful.
When Xiaogang saw the other person, his old habits came back. Xiaoxia was afraid of disturbing her, so she had to pull him away.
Miss Hui’er is a very easy-going sister. Xiaozhi and his friends had just joined her homestay when she waved over and started chatting with everyone.
It is worth mentioning that Xiaozhi wanted to go back to the house to sleep, but Serena and Xiaolan would not let him leave. Every time Xiaozhi wanted to find an excuse, the two girls would suddenly change the subject and not give Xiaozhi a chance to speak.
“I didn’t expect that the ones who work best together are Serena and Xiaolan.”
“That’s right, I really don’t understand what’s so good about this guy Xiaozhi… He has a bad temper and likes to mock others. Although he loves Pokémon, he is very reckless. Although he is very reliable, he is not forgiving at all…”
Xiaogang and Xiaoxia were chatting in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
When Xiaogang heard Xiaoxia’s words, he immediately felt something was wrong.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Xiaoxia suddenly became strange.
Meanwhile, two hours had passed unnoticed and it was time to go to bed.
“It’s getting late, you should get some rest. Aren’t you sleepy, Xiaozhi? Go to bed now.”
Sister Huier pointed at the wall clock and said.
Serena and Xiaolan looked at the time, stood up at the same time, called Xiaoxia and went towards the girls’ dormitory.
Xiaozhi also stood up, thinking that he was finally free. He stretched and walked towards the room with Xiaogang.
“I see… Lan Yatou likes that child.”
“What a pity! If I didn’t live here, I would really like to take her back to my place…”
“The time is almost up. The young man has arrived, and the organization is about to start its action. Girl Lan, your friend’s life or death depends on you this time…”
Sister Huier started talking to herself, and no one knew what she was mumbling about.
Hui’er waved his hand, without using the Poké Ball, and a huge Pixie appeared from somewhere. It was more than five times larger than an ordinary Pixie.
With a light jump, Picosi arrived at the center of the Tsukimi Basin, and then moved downwards along the center. Unexpectedly, there was a special tunnel, and Picosi slid down.
In the center of the Tsukimi Basin, an evolution ceremony is being held, with a large group of Pipi performing activities.
“Pico~”
When Pikasi saw his tribesmen who were several times smaller than himself, he was immediately very happy. He jumped towards the Pipis. When the Pipis saw this Pikasi, they instantly became more excited and the sacrificial activities became more lively.
Picosi’s huge body showed a cute and silly smile, and he played with the Pipis at the beginning of the sacrificial activity, making the whole sacrificial activity more perfect.
Soon, after the whole sacrifice was over, the Picosi came out with a cute Pipi. Although the size difference between them was huge, it didn’t look strange to see them walking together.
Then, Huier took out a Poké Ball from his pocket, looked at it, and said slowly: “This thing invented by humans is really convenient.”
Then Hui Er looked at Pi Pi again and asked, “Lady Lan is a very nice person. I feel relieved if you follow her.”
After hearing this, Pipi immediately jumped a few times happily. After all, this Pipi pursued different things from the other Pipis. Most of the Pipis on Yuejian Mountain wanted to live a carefree life on Yuejian Mountain, so they rarely interacted with humans. Only this one often appeared in front of humans and wanted to travel with humans.
Even though it was very naughty in the tribe, the tribe leader still found a good home for it like Xiaolan.
And Picosi also handed over the things he had just obtained from the sacrificial ceremony to Huier.
These are three moonstones of nearly perfect quality.
In this world, many rich kids like to use evolution stones to evolve elves. Because they themselves do not have strong training capabilities, they can only use money to buy high-purity evolution stones and improve their strength through evolution.
But in fact, the quality of the evolution stone can not only make the elf stronger after evolution, but also enhance its talent and potential. This shows the importance of a high-purity evolution stone.
Huier picked up the three Moon Stones and the Poké Ball, looked at Pixie, and with a wave of his hand, Pixie disappeared again.
Not long after that, in the morning, Xiao Lan woke up and saw Hui’er waiting for her in the hall.
“Good morning, Sister Huier. I may have to trouble you for a long time. Sorry.”
Xiao Lan stuck out her cute little tongue and said embarrassedly.
“Blue girl, you have been here with me for so long. You want to subdue a Pipi, right?”
Hui’er answered the question irrelevantly.
Xiao Lan asked and nodded with some doubt after hearing this.
Huier slowly took out a Poké Ball and handed it to Xiaolan.
“Sister Huier, what are you doing?”
Xiao Lan was even more confused when she saw this and didn’t understand what Hui’er meant.
Boom!
Suddenly, an explosion sounded in the cave of Yuejian Mountain, scaring Xiaozhi and others who were sleeping.
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
Xiaogang climbed out of bed. The shock of the explosion made him a little panicked.
Xiaozhi also woke up at this time, and the power of wave was instantly activated. A huge machine appeared in Xiaozhi’s mind in the form of wave.
“Hurry up, this B&B may collapse at any time!”
Xiaogang saw that Xiaozhi was still in a daze, and immediately grabbed Xiaozhi and ran out.
At this time, Serena and Xiaoxia also ran out of the girls’ room and came to the door of the B&B. Xiaomao also came to the crowd at some point. At this time, the five people gathered here, but there was no sign of Xiaolan and Huier, which made everyone worried.
“Let’s go, Xiaolan and Hui’er are not inside.”
Xiaozhi used the power of waveguide to investigate and informed everyone of the results.
At this time, everyone finally put their minds at ease, thinking that Xiaolan and Huier must have run away in advance, so they wanted to start investigating the source of the explosion.
“Serena, Xiaoxia, wait here for Xiaolan and Hui’er to meet up with you. Don’t run around. Let’s go see what’s going on over there.”
Xiaozhi spoke to the two girls.
After all, in Xiaozhi’s opinion, Xiaolan has not been found yet, so it would be better to let the two girls wait here. And with Xiaoxia around, Serena’s safety can also be guaranteed.
The two girls immediately understood and watched the remaining three boys walk towards the second half of Yuejian Mountain.
Xiaozhi used the waveguide feedback to quickly lead everyone to a small corner.
Everyone leaned their heads out and saw a Frankenstein-like man driving a blasting vehicle specially designed for blasting mountains. He was bombarding the mountain of Yuejian Mountain with bombs again and again.
“This is too much! Stop it now!”
Xiaogang, an expert in rock properties, naturally understood how terrible this action was. If the other party continued, the collapse of the mountain would be a matter of time. Xiaogang’s hometown, Nibi City, was backed by Mount Yuemian. If Mount Yuemian collapsed, Nibi City would not be spared.
Chapter 63: The Four Generals – Lambda (Old Version)
“Tsk, here comes another one getting in the way, Lambda, please.”
The man who looked like a mad doctor picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke into it.
“Doctor, we have been digging for so long, and we even got a demolition truck. Can you get that special stone?”
An impatient voice came from the intercom, and the man named Lambda stood up reluctantly and rushed over here.
The doctor wanted to say something, but at this time a giant Onix was blocking the way of the demolition vehicle.
“Onix, block with rocks!”
Xiao Gang ordered.
When Xiaogang found that the man did not give up and continued blasting, he immediately threw out the Poké Ball and summoned his trump card – Onix.
With a flick of its tail, Onix threw two huge rocks at the demolition vehicle, and the doctor immediately reacted and fired two bombs, colliding head-on with the rock blockade.
Countless rocks were shattered, and the aftermath of the explosion was so large that Xiaozhi and others couldn’t help but cover their mouths and noses.
“Come out, Scyther, and clear the fog.”
Xiaomao threw a Poké Ball and a Scyther appeared, which surprised Xiaozhi on the side. The talent of this Scyther was really good. After all, a move like Clearing Fog can only be inherited from parents in a Pokémon like Scyther, and it is impossible to learn such a move later.
The Scyther flapped its wings, and almost instantly cleared away all the smoke and dust that blocked its view.
“Snap, snap, snap”
As the applause slowly appeared in the ears of several people, a man with a tuft of spiky purple hair on his head and a somewhat wretched appearance appeared in front of Xiaozhi and others.
“You are actually the leader of the Nibi Gym. It seems that you are quite powerful. I am a good person. If you surrender now, I will let you go.”
The man in front of him said in a very frivolous manner.
At this time, Xiaomao next to Xiaozhi showed an incredible expression as if he recognized the man.
“You are… one of the four generals of Team Rocket – Lambda!”
There have always been several different branches within the Rocket Team, namely the Two Kings, the Three Beast Warriors, and the Four Generals.
Four of the generals are: Apollo, Athena, Lance, and Lambda. They have strength levels that are not inferior to Uranus and are the face of the Rockets team.
The three beast warriors are Chakra, Sachi and Ouka. Compared to the four generals, these three are much more mysterious. Except for whether Chakra will appear, even the League cannot reveal the appearance of the remaining two. But what is certain is that these three are not known for their strength, but like to use the power of science to strengthen their Pokémon.
Finally, there are the two kings, who are the right-hand men of the Rocket Team boss. It is said that the two of them have strength that is not inferior to the champion. Even the Ice King Kona was defeated when he was hunting down Hades, the King of the Pluto. It is said that Kona’s Pokémon was almost killed by them, so the code name of Pluto came into being.
Apart from Hades, the alliance could not even give the name of the second “king” this time. They just called him the “Ghost King” because they knew that he was good at using ghost-attribute Pokémon.
As for the identity of the Rockets’ leader, it remains a mystery and his level of strength is completely unknown.
In front of Xiaozhi and the other two was Lambda, one of the four generals who was at the level of a king.
“Lambda! What are you talking about! Kill them! You big idiot!”
The doctor on the demolition vehicle looked at Lambda who was so cynical and immediately cursed.
“Stop talking nonsense. I’m a good person. How could I kill someone?”
Lambda looked at the furious doctor and his mood seemed to improve. Even his face was not as wretched as before.
“Hmph, Team Rocket, that’s just what I want. Let’s duel!”
As the gym leader, Xiaogang naturally stands on the side of the Alliance and is irreconcilable with Team Rocket.
Lambda couldn’t help laughing when he heard this.
“Hahahahaha, are you kidding me? I already told you I’m a good person, why do you want to duel with me, Mr. Gym Leader?”
“You used the blasting vehicle to destroy the natural environment of Yuejian Mountain, which is likely to cause the next landslide. If I’m not mistaken, you also sent people to install those incandescent lamps at the entrance of the cave. You destroyed the living environment of the elves. Do you still have the nerve to call yourself a good person?”
Xiao Mao also stepped forward immediately. You know, Xiao Mao is the grandson of Professor Oak. He has heard the league vilify Team Rocket since he was a child. Now it is natural that he wants to duel with the evil organization Team Rocket in his perception.
Hearing Xiao Mao say this, Lambda laughed again.
“Hahahahahaha, destroying the natural environment? We’re just mining here, how can we be the bad guys? If you’re talking about landslides, let me tell you, with so many climbers coming here every day to dig for so-called treasures, landslides are a matter of time. Why are we the only ones considered the bad guys now that we’re digging?”
“Besides, weren’t we the first to destroy the elves’ living environment? Wasn’t the elf center at the foot of Tsukimi Mountain originally just a patch of grass? Why can the Alliance use it to build a elf center and get the elves’ understanding, but we can’t! I say it again, I don’t care about Team Rocket, I’m a good person!”
Lambda talked on and on as if he really was a good person.
“Fraudulent arguments!”
Xiaogang and Xiaomao were speechless after being rebuked, and finally had to shut up. They looked at Xiaozhi, hoping that Xiaozhi could say something to save the situation.
At this time, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but be stunned and said, “Why are you looking at me? I think what he said makes sense.”
Xiaogang and Xiaomao were speechless for a moment, so they turned to Lambda and said, “Anyway, I won’t allow you to destroy Yuejian Mountain like this!”
At this moment, Lambda’s eyes narrowed, and his original cynicism became sharp.
“Well, that can’t be helped.”
Lambda threw a Poké Ball and a Nidoking appeared. Ash used the system to check and almost screamed out in fright when he saw its level.
Intermediate Heavenly King! ?
The level of this Nidoking is actually at the intermediate level of the King!
“Go ahead, Squirtle!”
Xiaomao immediately threw out a Poké Ball, and Stotle appeared, facing Nidoking together with Onix, and Scyther, which was originally on the field, also came to the front.
Xiaozhi’s mind was working rapidly, looking for a way to defeat the enemy, but the battle had already begun.
Chapter 64: Fierce Battle with Lambda (Old Version)
“Spy Mantis, Air Slash, Squirtle, Water Wave!”
Xiao Mao waved his hand, and the two elves immediately moved. A ball of light condensed from water elements smashed towards Nidoking, and the water waves were surrounded by the sound of air breaking.
The two moves were actually combined together!
“Nidoking, use Poison Tail.”
As Lambda gave the order, purple light lingered on Nidoking’s tail, and he blocked Xiaomao’s attack with a slight flick of his tail, and then Xiaogang’s attack followed.
“Onix, use Rockfall!”
At Xiaogang’s command, countless pieces of gravel flew towards Nidoking. Nidoking did not react at all and took it all, but in the end he just shook his head as if nothing had happened.
“hateful…”
Xiaogang couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. In this cave of Yuejian Mountain, he didn’t dare let Onix use ground-attribute moves such as earthquake and stomping. He could only attack with rock-attribute moves that had little effect on Nidoking.
Lambda then asked jokingly, “Have you had enough fun? Mud Wave!”
Following Lambda’s order, huge purple waves appeared under Nidoking’s feet, and terrible venom attacked the few people. The power was so great that Xiaomao and Xiaogang couldn’t help but widen their eyes.
“Cut it off and use the holy sword.”
At the same time, a strange red dagger blocked Xiaomao and Xiaogang, and with just one sword, it cut off the venom that was attacking everyone.
Xiaozhi sent out the Duel Sword Scabbard at some point, trying to find an opportunity in secret to see if he could use a sneak attack to severely damage Nidoking, but unfortunately, if Xiaozhi didn’t take action, Xiaomao and Xiaogang would be in big trouble.
Poison-attribute special moves have no effect on the steel-attribute Scabbard, which is why Xiaozhi let the Scabbard cut off the venom without hesitation.
Only then did Lambda look at Xiaozhi straight in the eye. He thought that Xiaozhi was a passerby brought by the two men to explore the way, and he was not strong enough and would not participate in this battle. But now it seems that this is not the case. It seems that he is still the one with the highest level among the three.
“It actually cut through Nidoking’s mud wave head-on. Could it be that it has the steel attribute?”
Lambda from Carlos had never seen the single-scabbard sword, so naturally he didn’t know anything about it.
But Lambda did not feel any crisis or fear. Instead, he became playful and ordered Nidoking: “Nidoking, catch it for me!”
Upon hearing Lambda’s order, Nidoking instantly ran towards the Sword Scabbard, but the Sword Scabbard disappeared again in an instant and quietly hid in the shadow of Squirtle, and Nidoking’s attention was completely attracted at this time.
(“The scabbard is in the shadow of Squirtle, attack quickly.”)
Seeing that Xiaogang and the other two were unmoved, Xiaozhi quietly used the wave guide to remind them.
The two of them reacted only then and gave orders immediately.
“Spy Mantis, use a double attack!”
“Onix, use Dragon Breath!”
Xiaogang and Xiaomao gave the order at the same time, but at this time the two had already fought with each other once, and had a certain understanding of Nidoking’s level. The special attack moves that Scyther was not good at could not do anything to the opponent, so it would be better to use speed for close combat. Onix’s rock moves were almost ineffective against the opponent, so they used dragon breath to harass.
As Scyther struck Nidoking with two swords, a blue-purple breath followed.
With a roar, Nidoking punched out, knocking Xiao Mao’s Scyther away. Then he moved his whole body and the blue breath completely dissipated.
But at this moment, an electric mouse was slowly accumulating electricity behind Nidoking, and the golden lightning spear hit the vital point. Even Nidoking of this level couldn’t help but let out a cry of pain.
“The electric attribute works on Nidoking… This is impossible…”
Lambda couldn’t help but be dumbfounded when he saw this scene. This Pikachu could actually violate the iron law of attribute restraint!
Then, Lambda shook his head again. Even though he was the one at a disadvantage, he couldn’t help but feel a little pity when he looked at Xiaozhi and the others.
“Basic beast, I’m counting on you from now on. Use the destruction ray to kill it.”
“Rada, come out and use the ultimate attack!”
Ash and Shamo threw a Poké Ball at the same time, and Brutalis and Rattata appeared. The moment Rattata appeared, his whole body became full of strength, and he rushed towards Nidoking at an incredible speed, while Brutalis also quickly gathered energy, and shot out a terrifying beam of light, which hit Nidoking head-on, stirring up a cloud of dust.
“Did you win…”
“Such an attack should be no problem…”
Xiaogang and Xiaomao couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, but Xiaozhi was frowning.
Before the dust had settled, Xiaozhi had a bad feeling. Suddenly, a strange red light appeared somewhere in the smoke.
Here we come!
Lambda thought to himself.
“Make a scene! Nidoking, make a scene!”
It was then that Xiaozhi realized that this Nidoking had not actually fought back just now, not because it couldn’t, but because it simply didn’t want to, even when its master ordered it to, because it was the pride of being a high-level Pokémon.
But now, everyone beat him up and Nidoking went into a completely violent state, starting to make a big fuss. Even the doctor who was driving the demolition car could not escape Nidoking’s brutal attack and was thrown out by him.
The same thing happened to Rada, who was instantly kicked against the wall by Nidoking, and immediately lost his ability to fight. The next one was Marsupial, Scyther, and then Onix, all of which were killed instantly with just one hit.
“Single scabbard, shadow sneak attack.”
DuSwordscabbard instantly emerged from Nidoking’s shadow. When he launched the attack just now, DuSwordscabbard had already made many sneak attacks. Although it was very unhappy, it finally dealt with the other Pokémon first.
This time, when the scabbard of the sword emerged from the shadow, it was grabbed by Nidoking.
Nidoking ignored the sharpness of the scabbard and held it tightly in his hand, as if he felt no pain, and threw the scabbard away in an instant.
Now the only Pokémon that can fight in the arena are Pikachu and Squirtle, and the situation is serious.
At this time, Lambda said in a mean way: “Oh, he is angry? This is none of my business. I am a good person.”
At this time, Xiaogang immediately pushed Xiaozhi and the other two back and said, “Xiaozhi, run quickly, we are no match for him!”
Xiaozhi seemed to have guessed something, but Xiaomao was very moved. Looking at Xiaogang’s face that looked like he was about to die heroically, he said with some sadness:
“Xiao Gang, just go ahead and don’t worry!”
When Xiaomao said this, Xiaozhi and Xiaogang couldn’t help but frown.
Chapter 65: Xiaolan’s Appearance (Old Version)
“Who said I was going to die!”
“Well, Xiao Mao, he should be planning to use the big explosion trick of Rumble Stone and Rumble Rock to give us time to escape.”
Xiaozhi and Xiaogang looked at Xiaomao speechlessly and said helplessly.
After all, Xiaomao had never seen Brock’s Pokémon use the Big Bang trick, but Xiaozhi had seen it when he and Brock were fighting, so he was able to guess it quickly.
However, Xiao Gang had just used the Big Bang trick not long ago. If it is used again now, it will inevitably cause some trauma to Rhydon’s body.
But now, in order to save my life, this is the only way.
Just as King Nido was leading everyone closer and Xiaogang took out his two Poké Balls, a Poké Ball slowly appeared beside everyone. As the Poké Ball opened, a blue dragon appeared in front of everyone.
Gyarados?
Xiaozhi and Xiaogang understood instantly and looked in the direction where the Poké Ball was thrown. A girl with short ponytail and orange hair appeared. Who else could it be but Misty?
But…can Xiaoxia really command Gyarados now?
As Gyarados appeared in front of Satoshi and his friends, Misty’s voice of command followed.
“Gyarados, go defeat Nidoking and protect everyone, use your bite!”
But to everyone’s disappointment, this Gyarados actually fell asleep right there.
“Tsk, I thought this was a tough guy, but it turns out he’s just a show-off.”
In fact, Lambda was still a little surprised when Gyarados appeared. After all, a Pokémon like Gyarados can evolve from Magikarp, which either shows that it has extraordinary qualifications or that its level is very high.
Moreover, its attributes can restrain Nidoking. If this Gyarados is the rescue of these people, then the probability of their failure today is still very high.
But what happened next to Nidoking that had lost its mind made Lambda feel a little uneasy.
Nidoking, who was in a state of making a big fuss, saw Gyarados standing in front of him and punched it. Gyarados felt the pain and immediately opened his eyes, glaring at Nidoking, and then fired a water cannon.
Gyarados and Nidoking were almost at zero distance, and the water cannon hit Nidoking head-on with great effect, blasting Nidoking away.
“Nidoking, calm down and use Sludge Wave!”
Lambda couldn’t help but feel a little anxious. He had underestimated the enemy today. He didn’t expect that Xiaozhi and the other two had such a powerful fighting force.
But Nidoking was in a state of making a big fuss, so how could he listen to his trainer? With a roar from Nidoking, steam rose from the ground under Gyarados.
But Gyarados just used its tail to bounce its body up slightly and avoided the attack.
Many people actually don’t know that Gyarados is not a dragon-attribute Pokémon, but a dual-attribute Pokémon of Water and Flying. The Flying attribute is naturally immune to ground-attribute moves.
“Ouch!”
Gyarados roared again, and then used Water Tail, while Nidoking also countered with Poison Tail.
Now it is no longer a battle and game between trainers, but a fight between Pokémon. There is no skill involved, it is a pure contest of strength.
But Nidoking has the strength of a mid-level king after all, and possesses more powerful strength than the quasi-king Gyarados, so Gyarados was quickly suppressed.
Seeing Gyarados’ eyes gradually turning into an angry red, Xiaoxia couldn’t help but feel that something was wrong.
Make a big scene!
Gyarados is about to enter that state!
“Stop it now! The aftermath of your fight will cause the entire cave to collapse!”
Xiaogang immediately noticed the state of Gyarados, which was very bad. If two Pokémon of this level fought recklessly here, it would be almost inevitable that the cave of Mt. Tsukimi would collapse and several people would be buried.
“Come back soon! Nidoking!”
Lambda immediately took out his Poké Ball and wanted to take Nidoking back, but a red light flashed across Nidoking’s body and then suddenly exploded. This was the result of Nidoking’s resistance.
“Gyarados! Stop it! Come back now!”
On the other side, Xiaoxia also made the same action, but soon, the same result appeared. In the end, the two elves with scary red eyes started fighting again.
“bu~bululubu~buling~bubilibu~”
Suddenly, a melodious song sounded, which made Xiaozhi and the others stunned for a moment, but suddenly they felt sleepy. Pikachu and everyone present finally fell down and slowly fell asleep. The blood-red eyes of Gyarados and Nidoking also returned to their original calmness and finally fell asleep.
“Phew…luckily I made it…”
At this time, a girl who was flying using Jigglypuff as a hot air balloon slowly spoke.
Who else could this girl be besides Xiao Lan?
Not long ago.
“Blue girl, Yuejian Mountain is a place dedicated to the moon. Now those organizations are digging here and even brought explosive devices. Collapse is inevitable…”
Huier said slowly to Xiaolan.
Xiaolan looked at Hui’er and said, “Don’t worry, Sister Hui’er, these friends of mine are all very powerful trainers. If they really do anything big, I will defeat them together with my friends!”
Huier shook his head again.
“That’s why I’m worried… They are very powerful. If they confront the masters of that organization head-on here, the cave will collapse, and your efforts to stop them will be meaningless…”
“So… take this Pipi. Didn’t you tell me that there was a Jigglypuff following you all the time? You can do this…”
So Hui’er asked Xiaolan to tame the Jigglypuff that had been following Xiaolan on his journey. After that, he came to the side and watched the fight between the few people. Finally, when Gyarados and Nidoking were fighting each other, he ordered Jigglypuff and Pidgeot to sing and help respectively.
In fact, singing is ineffective against Pokémon that are much higher in level than themselves, but with Pippi’s comfort, it finally worked.
When Pudding saw the scene in front of him, he instantly became so angry that his whole body puffed up. He picked up a pen and started scribbling on several people’s faces.
After a long time, Xiaozhi slowly woke up.
But when he saw the faces of Misty, Brock, and Shigeru, Xiaozhi couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Ah!! What’s going on?!”
The first person to discover it was Xiaoxia, who screamed immediately. Now her face was covered with graffiti.
The same thing happened to Xiaogang and Xiaomao who woke up later.
But what surprised everyone was that only Xiaozhi’s face was clean…
This was of course the work of Blue. She had been standing in front of Satoshi, preventing Jigglypuff from graffiti on Satoshi’s face. Finally, seeing that his trainer was so persistent, Jigglypuff had to give up and painted more diligently on other people’s faces.
Chapter 66: Release the People (Old Version)
When everyone fell asleep, Xiaolan had already tied up the Doctor and Lambda who were driving the explosive car. It is worth mentioning that when the other members of Team Rocket saw that something was wrong at the scene, they just ran away without even looking back at the two of them.
“It seems you have been abandoned.”
When everyone went to wash their faces, Xiaozhi came to Lambda and the Doctor, turned out all their belongings, and used the system to investigate their identities.
(“Ding, Lambda, one of the four generals of Team Rocket, has strength above the King level, but is arrogant and often calls himself a good person.”)
(“Beep, Sakuryu, one of the doctors in the Kanto region of Team Rocket, specializing in Pokémon evolution. In the future, he will become Team Rocket’s doctor who specializes in Mega Evolution.”)
MEGA evolution? This is the second time Xiaozhi has heard this word. The last time he heard this word was when Dr. Bratano told him about it in Carlos.
I didn’t expect this doctor to be so capable.
“Tell me, what are you looking for in this place? I don’t believe you are just digging for moonstones.”
Xiaozhi told the two that now that their Poké Balls had been collected, it meant that they were no longer threatening, so Xiaozhi let down his guard.
“That’s right, what on earth do you want to do with such a dangerous device!”
Xiaolan also came to Xiaozhi’s side and asked the two of them.
At this time, Serena appeared in front of everyone. She had been staying there waiting for Xiaolan to come back. No matter how big the battle fluctuations were, she did not go forward. She just asked Xiaoxia to help. After all, with her strength, she would probably cause trouble for everyone if she came. It was better for her to execute Xiaozhi’s orders on the spot. So she did not come to look for Xiaozhi until she saw Xiaoxia and Xiaogang go back to wash their faces.
“Xiaozhi! Are you okay?”
Serena came over and asked anxiously.
“Ahhh~ Xiaozhi, are you okay~”
Xiaolan said in a sarcastic tone, causing Serena to glare at her.
“Okay, why do you guys always quarrel every time you meet?”
Xiaozhi came over to the two girls and tried to stop them from fighting.
“It’s all because of you!”*2
The two women’s words made Xiaozhi confused. He didn’t understand what this had to do with him.
“Tsk, kid, you’re quite popular with women.”
Lambda couldn’t help but curl his lips as he looked at the scene in front of him.
“Stop talking nonsense and tell me what are you doing here?”
Xiaozhi then remembered the main topic and asked Lambda and Treasurer Dr. Liu.
“Huh, do you think we will tell you? We won’t…”
Before Treasurer Liu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lambda.
“We feel an extremely powerful fluctuation of evolutionary energy here, but this old man insists there’s a stone here. I’m getting annoyed to death.”
“you!!!”
Lambda’s blunt words made the treasurer Dr. Liu so angry that he jumped up and down, and he moved his body to kick Lambda.
Xiaozhi nodded at this time, then stepped forward and kicked Treasurer Dr. Liu on the butt, then came to Lambda.
“You’re smart. This old man stays here, and you can go.”
Then he squatted down and untied the rope that was used as the vine whip of Bulbasaur for Lambda.
“Xiaozhi! Is this okay?”
“That’s right, are we just going to let him go like that? He’s from Team Rocket!”
Xiaozhi’s behavior shocked Xiaolan and Serena, but this time their behavior was very consistent.
Looking at the two people who rarely stood on the same front, Xiaozhi sighed and said, “Let me ask you, what did he do this time?”
“Fight against you.”
“Is he the one who dug the mountain and blew up the environment?”
“It doesn’t seem to be…”
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but recall that when Nidoking and Gyarados were about to go crazy, Lambda immediately took the overall situation into consideration and took out his Poké Ball in an attempt to take back Nidoking.
It was just a failure. From that moment on, Xiaozhi knew that Lambda was not a bad person by nature, he just had a different stance from himself. Xiaozhi had nothing to do with the league, so naturally he did not have the same natural aversion to Team Rocket as Xiaomao and Xiaogang.
As he said himself, he is a good man.
But this treasurer, Dr. Liu, is not a good person. He actually asked Lambda to kill him and others. It is estimated that this plan was also led by him. It would be unjust if we don’t hand him over to the police.
Lambda looked at Xiaozhi with some surprise, and finally nodded, secretly admiring the vision of this young man.
“This is your Nidoking, go ahead.”
Looking at Xiaozhi who handed over the Poké Ball, Lambda couldn’t help but sigh and reminded: “Remember to search the blaster car. There is a long-tortured experimental subject in it.”
Upon hearing this, Treasurer Dr. Liu was so angry that he almost fainted. He cursed Lambda with all kinds of dirty words until Xiaozhi couldn’t stand it anymore and finally let Pikachu give him an electric shock.
Xiaozhi handed Nidoking’s Poké Ball to Lambda and watched Lambda walk out of Moon View Mountain.
.
“What!? You let Lambda go? How could you do that! He’s Team Rocket, do you know how dangerous this is?”
Listening to everyone’s endless complaints, Xiaozhi finally exploded.
“Has that been enough? Let me ask you, with a Nidoking of the Heavenly King level there, do you think that they can really hold out for so long if they attack seriously based on our strength? If they hadn’t stopped us from killing you, would you still be standing here now?”
Xiaozhi’s remarks made all the complaining people shut up.
“Speak up, why are you so brainless? And how long can you keep him if you catch him? Let me ask you, what did he do this time? Did he destroy the mountain? If he insists that he is just a passing trainer, how are you going to explain it?”
Indeed, although the Alliance knew that Lambda was a member of Team Rocket and one of the Four Generals, the Four Generals, although they were public figures, did not leave any evidence of their crimes, so it would be of no use even if Lambda was captured.
He might even be reported by others for attacking a trainer, so it’s better to let this person go.
On the other hand, Treasurer Dr. Liu, as the mastermind of this incident, is bound to go to jail.
Everyone was stunned. They didn’t expect Xiaozhi to have this consideration. In the end, they had no choice but to agree.
But what Xiaozhi was very concerned about was what Lambda said to him before he left…what was the matter with the experimental Pokémon?
So Xiaozhi quickly came to the demolition truck and took a small cage from it.
“What are you doing! That’s my most important experimental subject! Put it down!”
Dr. Treasurer Liu seemed to have not figured out the situation yet. He was yelling beside Ash when he was capturing Eevee. His words made Ash very angry, and he asked Pikachu to give him a terrible electric shock.
“Neuropathy.”
Xiaozhi cursed, raising his hand and opening the cage.
A brown Pokémon flew out at a high speed, much faster than Pikachu. Suddenly, a flame shot out from the Pokémon’s mouth, and the Pokémon instantly turned orange-yellow.
Chapter 67: Eevee Mega Stone (4000 words) (Old version)
“Ash, be careful! It’s Flamew! Squirtle, use the water gun!”
Xiaomao on the side reacted quickly and ordered Stotle beside him to use water gun to block the flames for Xiaozhi.
In fact, even if Xiaomao did not take action, Xiaozhi could order the single sword sheath lurking in his shadow to block this move.
The single sword sheath was hiding in Xiaozhi’s shadow, which was why Xiaozhi let Lambda go just now without being afraid of his sudden attack.
If Lambda had thrown the Poké Ball just now, the Sword Scabbard would have definitely chopped off the opponent’s head.
The fire elf’s attack was broken. In an instant, golden electricity emerged from its body and its entire body turned into a yellow hedgehog.
“It’s turned into a thunder elf! Stop him, Rumble Rock!”
Although Xiaogang felt it was incredible, he immediately threw out a Poké Ball with Rhydon and easily neutralized the electric shock.
When the Lightning Elf saw that the electric shock was ineffective, its entire body turned blue almost instantly, and it summoned a huge wave with its feet and rushed towards Xiaozhi and the others.
“Sword scabbard, cut it off.”
This time Xiaozhi took action, and the figure of Du Jianshao appeared instantly, cutting the huge wave in half with one blow.
Pikachu was also ready to fight, with electricity gathering in his body, ready to attack at any time.
“Wait a minute, Pikachu, don’t attack it.”
Pikachu was slightly stunned by Xiaozhi’s words, but he immediately executed it, gathering the electricity again and storing it back in his electrical sac.
When the water elf saw that its attack was broken, it seemed that it wanted to make another move, but with a loud cry, it fell to the floor and turned into an Eevee.
“Humph, what a loser! I have used so many evolution stones to adjust its evolution genes, but I didn’t expect this guy to be such a loser. He can only use three moves like before!”
Listening to the words of Treasurer Dr. Liu, Xiaozhi couldn’t help biting his lower lip and slowly approached Eevee.
“Xiaozhi! It’s dangerous!”
Xiaogang wanted to step forward to stop him. After all, it was very dangerous to get close to such a Pokémon. It would be terrible if he got hurt.
But suddenly a hand appeared in front of Xiaogang.
Xiao Mao looked at Xiao Gang with a determined look in his eyes and said, “Leave everything to him…”
Xiaogang looked at Xiaomao who was so confident and finally nodded.
Eevee saw Xiaozhi approaching and stood up instantly, with all the hair on its body standing up, as if it wanted to intimidate Xiaozhi.
Xiaozhi looked at Eevee and slowly closed his eyes. Suddenly, blue energy waves emerged around his body, warm and comfortable.
Eevee felt the wave power released by Xiaozhi and his emotions gradually calmed down.
(“Ibrahimovic, I know those humans hurt you, but I want to tell you that not all humans are bad. From now on you are free and you can live on this mountain.”)
Xiaozhi’s wave information flashed through everyone’s mind, and Treasurer Liu was so surprised that he was almost speechless.
“This… This is… The power of the wave! You are Inochi from Pallet Town!”
Treasurer Liu seemed to know something and immediately said Xiaozhi’s name.
(“It seems my waveguide is more famous than I am.”)
Xiaozhi once again transmitted the wave information to Siku Liu’s mind.
Siku Liu no longer cared about Ibrahimovic and finally admitted his failure this time.
Unexpectedly, he had offended Xiaozhi, the contemporary wave guide messenger who is regarded as a key protected object by every organization today.
The leader of Team Rocket specifically told all members of Team Rocket that they must not offend Xiaozhi. After all, even if such a young man with extraordinary potential cannot be used by themselves, it is best not to make him an enemy.
“Ibui! (You… who are you! Aren’t you their new researcher? Wait! Isn’t this a laboratory?)”
Only then did Eevee realize that Ash didn’t seem to have any ill intentions, but because of the painful experience in the laboratory, Eevee had a natural hostility towards humans.
Xiaozhi slowly stretched out his arm towards Eevee, and Eevee sniffed Xiaozhi’s hand and finally bit it!
Everyone behind him was shocked. They thought that the Eevee’s emotions had finally been calmed down, but they didn’t expect that it still did something to hurt Xiaozhi.
Although Xiaozhi felt pain, he immediately waved his hand and said, “I’m fine.”
Everyone looked at Xiaozhi’s hand which was bitten by Eevee and was bleeding, and they couldn’t help but worry in their hearts.
“Ibrahimovic, you should feel better if you do this…”
Xiaozhi reached out his other hand and touched Eevee’s head.
Eevee felt Xiaozhi’s gentle caress, his expression was somewhat moved, and finally he let go of Xiaozhi’s hand.
At this time, Xiaozhi’s hand was already bleeding. Looking at Xiaozhi’s palm, Eevee licked Xiaozhi’s hand, and Xiaozhi stretched out his other hand again and touched Eevee’s head.
At this time, Eevee seemed to be finally at ease and slowly fell asleep in Xiaozhi’s arms. Xiaozhi then gently picked up Eevee and returned to the others.
“This Eevee… just now was able to evolve into three different forms… It’s amazing…”
“Xiaozhi, this Eevee is not in a good condition. How about sending it back to the research institute and asking Professor Oak to take a look? After all, it is a Pokémon that was abused by Team Rocket…”
Xiaogang and Xiaomao said to Xiaozhi respectively, but in the end, Xiaozhi shook his head.
“Now we have to deal with this person. He actually made Ibrahimovic become like this… It’s unforgivable!”
Xiaozhi pointed at Treasurer Liu who was sitting on the ground doubting his life, and said slowly.
Finally, after being abused by Xiaozhi, Miss Junsha came again. This was her third time on duty in the past few days, and all three times were related to Xiaozhi. This made Junsha of Nibi City give Xiaozhi a thumbs up and applied for a bounty of 200,000 Alliance coins from the treasurer Dr. Liu.
The most important thing is that Miss Junsha actually sent a Zhang Jingqi to Xiaozhi’s home, which made Huazi smile and secretly thought that her son was very capable.
Xiaomao and Xiaogang naturally received the same treatment, but the bonus they applied for was not as high as Xiaozhi’s, but it was still a full 50,000 Alliance Coins.
What Xiaogang couldn’t have imagined was that the first pot of gold he earned from traveling with Xiaozhi was actually earned in this way. Xiaogang directly asked Junsha to take all the flags and cash back to Nibi City.
At the same time, somewhere on Mount Tsukimi, Lambda looked at the look on Xiaozhi’s face when he faced Eevee and nodded.
“I didn’t expect that guy to be the legendary Waveguide Messenger…”
Lambda said to himself.
Suddenly, a voice appeared in Lambda’s mind.
“(There is a hidden room in the middle of the second half of Mt. Tsukimi. Press the stone there and you will find what you want.)”
At this moment, Lambda suddenly found that Xiaozhi was staring at him without any hesitation and nodded to him.
“This guy…”
Lambda immediately set off and ran towards the place Xiaozhi mentioned.
He understood that Xiaozhi had no reason to lie to him. If Xiaozhi had not let him go, he would still be in a lot of trouble in the police station.
As Lambda pressed a stone, there was a “click” sound and the stone wall in front of him opened.
It is obvious that no one has been in this cave for a long time. There is no trace of modern humans left. It is even unknown whether the Alliance has discovered this small cave.
The king of heaven, Xiba, once said: “The development of Yuejian Mountain by the Kanto Alliance is less than one percent.”
Legend has it that Yuejian Mountain was a place where the moon was worshipped in ancient times, and elves from the moon once descended there.
Lambda entered slowly, but as soon as he entered, the ingenious paintings inside made Lambda open his mouth wide.
Inside the stone gate is a wide stone plain, like a hall. The entire floor has a special symbol, like a magic circle. There are also a large number of paintings carved on the surface of the surrounding walls. Lambda can only recognize that the carvings on the walls must be elves.
“Charizard, this should also be Charizard, is this Alakazam… and this is Pidgeot…”
Lambda turned on the flashlight and gradually identified the elves one by one, but what surprised him was that the elves here looked different from the elves he was familiar with.
At this moment, the words of Dr. Treasurer Liu lingered in his memory: “That is evolution above evolution, MEGA evolution! Also called super evolution! As long as we find the Evolution Key Stone and the MEGA Evolution Stone, we can achieve MEGA evolution!”
Before, Lambda and everyone in Team Rocket thought that what Treasurer Dr. Liu said was ridiculous.
But now, even Lambda had to admit the truth of what Dr. Treasurer Liu said.
“MEGA evolution…”
Lambda came to the stone platform in the center. Facing the stone platform was a different Beedrill, which was more domineering and more aggressive than the ordinary Beedrill.
On the stone platform is a small colorful stone and a large green and yellow stone.
This should be the MEGA Evolution Stone and Evolution Key Stone.
The two evolution stones had not been processed and were of irregular shapes, but they were still very beautiful. Lambda slowly picked them up, put the two stones into his pocket, and left Yuejian Mountain quietly.
With the end of the Tsukimiyama incident, Mao and Lan left Tsukimiyama first and headed towards Cerulean City, while Satoshi stayed in the Tsukimiyama B&B, attempting to leave today.
“Ibrahimovic, are you sure you really want to come with me?”
Xiaozhi looked at the Eevee that was sticking to him and asked it.
“Ibui!”
Eevee nodded. After spending these few days together, Eevee has completely trusted Xiaozhi.
“Then I may have to send you to Dr. Oak’s research institute for a checkup. Is that okay with you?”
Ibrahimovic immediately shook its head like a rattle. After all, the shadow it had on the research institute was no joke. Now, it felt a little scared when it heard about the research institute.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine. Riolu was given to me by that doctor. They injected a lot of chemicals into you when you were in Team Rocket, so you’re exhausted after fighting for a while… You should also want to recover your strength…”
Xiaozhi gently stroked Eevee’s head again. At this time.
Ibrahimovic thought for a long time and finally nodded.
(“System, I want Ibrahimovic’s information.”
The system reacted instantly, and countless information appeared in front of Xiaozhi.
Free Evolved Eevee
Name: Ibrahimovic
Gender: Female
Features: Adaptability
Level: Super Elite Peak
Moves: Lightning Flash, High Speed ??Star, Self-Boost, Baton, 100,000 Volts, Jet Flame, Surf
Information: Team Rocket’s Frankenstein Ryu used the Water Stone, Fire Stone, and Thunder Stone to adjust its evolutionary genes, resulting in the ability to evolve freely. Currently, it can only evolve into Water Spirit, Fire Spirit, and Lightning Spirit. However, due to the excessive impurities in the evolutionary stones, the Pokémon consumes a lot of physical energy every time it releases a special move or changes its form.
Extremely talented, with championship potential.
Looking at Eevee’s basic information, Xiaozhi took out a pink Poké Ball from his backpack. This Poké Ball is called a Healing Ball. Most female Poké Balls like to stay in such Poké Balls, and Eevee can also slowly recover its strength in it.
It is worth mentioning that this healing ball was given to him by Miss Joy in the Pokémon Center at the foot of Mt. Tsukimi after she solved the Magikarp incident. He didn’t expect to use it so soon.
As Xiaozhi pressed the healing ball and gently tapped it on Eevee’s head, Eevee turned into red light, and after three flashes, it was successfully captured.
(“Achievement obtained: Healing Mianmian, points +300)
Following Xiaozhi’s journey, his ladder points have now reached more than 30,000. It is time to prepare to do something with these points.
“Serena, Xiaoxia, you will have a new competitor in the future…”
Xiaogang curled his lips and said.
“What? It’s just… it’s just a Pokémon…”
“Ah? What does this have to do with me?”
The two girls blushed at the same time, but immediately retorted.
Chapter 68: The Pain of Releasing Life (Old Version)
After using the teleportation device in the B&B to send Eevee back to the research institute, Satoshi and his friends are finally about to leave Mt. Tsukimi.
“Xiaozhi, wait a moment.”
A pleasant female voice called out to everyone who was about to set off.
“Sister Huier, what’s the matter?”
Xiaozhi turned around and looked at the woman in front of him and asked.
Hui’er shook his head and handed Xiaozhi a Moon Stone. The transparency of the Moon Stone showed how terrible the composition of the Moon Stone was.
“My God, this moonstone is so beautiful! The purity should be over 99%!”
Xiao Gang, as an expert on rock properties, also has some knowledge about evolution stones, and he was surprised.
Xiaozhi waved his hand and said, “Sister Huier, you can leave the Pipi here. I am already very satisfied that I was able to capture Eevee during this trip to Moon Mountain.”
Xiaozhi is not a greedy person, because he knows that the Pipi here should need this evolution stone more than himself.
Hui Er shook his head and said, “This evolution stone was given to you by Lan Yatou. It is said that she has discovered quite a few during this period of time.”
Hui’er did not take back his hand, but placed the evolution stone in front of Xiaozhi.
“Little Blue…Okay then.”
Seeing Hui’er’s insistence, Xiaozhi finally had to accept the Moon Stone. After all, it was given to him by Xiaolan, so he couldn’t refuse.
After leaving Yuejian Mountain, we arrived at the second half of Route 3, which connects Cerulean City and Yuejian Mountain.
After about a day’s journey, they should be able to reach Hualan City.
Just as the four people walked out of Yuejian Mountain and were walking on the road, a beautiful girl came up to them and looked around.
Xiaozhi didn’t want to pay any attention to it at first, but Xiaogang’s old problem came back.
“Ah! What a beautiful woman!”
“My name is Xiaogang, dear lady, may I ask what your name is? Would you like to embark on the journey with me and become a breeder…”
Before Xiaogang could finish his words, Xiaoxia grabbed his ear and pulled him to the side.
“Okay, okay, we will embark on the journey of becoming a breeder with you.”
Serena also quickly stepped forward and bowed to apologize: “I’m sorry, he is just like that, I mean no harm, I’m sorry to bother you.”
The girl shook her head and said, “No, my name is Fenghua, I’m from Hualan City, hello.”
“My name is Serena, and I’m from Kalos. The one over there is Ash from Pallet Town and his partner Pikachu, and that girl is Misty from Cerulean City. As for the one who just chatted with you, it’s Brock from Nibee City.”
Seeing that the other party introduced himself so politely, Serena also introduced her friends to him.
Xiaozhi then stepped forward and said, “Ms. Fenghua, what are you looking for around here? Is it the tangerine ball?”
Fenghua was slightly stunned and asked, “How do you know that I can use the Poké Ball to make a Tangerine Ball?”
Everyone just reacted and looked at Xiaozhi with curiosity.
Xiaozhi answered casually: “Your wrists are redder than those of normal girls. This is a result of being near a fire for a long time. Also, the Poké Ball you have is completely different from ours. That should be a Friend Ball.”
Xiaozhi pointed at Fenghua’s wrist and the waist where the Poké Ball was hanging, paused and continued: “And your name is Fenghua. I heard from Professor Oak that there is a rising star in Cerulean City who makes Poké Balls. His name is Fenghua.”
In order to complete the achievement system and provide the Pokémon with a comfortable living environment, Xiaozhi is very concerned about the choice of Poké Ball types. This time in Cerulean City, in addition to challenging the gym, he also wants to find Miss Windflower to buy a batch of Friend Balls.
After all, he only has Poké Balls and commemorative balls on him now, and the only valuable ball belongs to the Dujianshao, so Xiaozhi has relatively few types of balls.
“I see. But I didn’t come here to look for a tangerine ball. I came here to look for a Pokémon.”
At this time, a blue rabbit-shaped Pokémon appeared in front of everyone. It was a Nidoran.
Fuuka immediately stepped forward and gently touched Nidorina’s back.
“Nidorina, you have been waiting for your trainer here for two full years.”
“Do you remember our agreement? If you can’t wait for your original trainer, I will take care of you from now on, okay?”
Nidona slowly lowered her head, somewhat afraid to look at Fenghua’s face.
“So… it’s an abandoned Nidorina…”
Xiaogang had returned to normal at this time. Looking at the current appearance of the man and the elf, he said with some sudden enlightenment.
“Abandoned elves? Can elves be abandoned?”
As a newbie who has just started out, Serena seems to be very unfamiliar with this term.
“This is a very common phenomenon. Many trainers are unwilling to continue training the Pokémon they have captured because they think their talents are poor, so they release them back into nature.”
“This kind of trainer is so despicable. He actually abandoned the Pokémon he captured! He is not worthy of being a trainer!”
Xiaoxia also cursed from the side.
Xiaozhi shook his head, somewhat disapprovingly.
He really loves Pokémon, but he also understands that not every trainer is like that. After all, the purpose of a trainer capturing Pokémon is to fight. If a Pokémon is not suitable for fighting, returning it to nature may be a good choice.
There is nothing wrong with this, and neither is the Pokémon; they just have different stances.
Fenghua was still stroking Nidoran’s back gently at this time, and put out the Pokémon food. Seeing Nidoran eating, she continued: “I understand how you felt in the past. The memories of the past are indeed beautiful, and your loyal character is also very admirable, but… you can’t stay here forever…”
“The departure and determination of humans are beyond the imagination of you elves. Don’t waste your loyalty and your body waiting here foolishly. Come with me. There is a better life ahead.”
“I went to Johto to learn how to make a tangerine ball, and made this Friend Ball myself. Come with me, and we’ll be together forever like friends, okay?”
Nidoran hesitated for a long time, and finally just wanted to nod, when a yellow-haired boy appeared.
“Really? It’s so troublesome to cross Yuejian Mountain every time!”
When Nidoran saw this person, he immediately walked up to him.
“Hmm? Why… it’s you? Long time no see… Nidoran…”
The boy bent down and touched Nidoran’s head, and a wave of memories came to his mind.
“Hello, this Nidoran was abandoned here by someone unknown. Today is the first time I see him being so enthusiastic towards someone. May I ask who you are…”
Fenghua was interrupted by the man before she could finish her words.
“Yes, it was my elf…”
The man’s decisive admission made everyone a little confused, because this man didn’t look like someone who could abandon his elf.
“Then why did you abandon it? It’s been waiting for you here for two years!”
Xiaoxia also immediately stepped forward and said.
“If Miss Fenghua hadn’t fed Nidoran here every day for the past two years, it would have died!”
Xiaogang also immediately stepped forward and said.
The man was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Nidoran again and said, “I’m sorry… but I really can’t subdue you…”
The man looked at everyone again and said, “My name is Dai Song. Three years ago, I was a student with very poor grades. In the level test, I did not get the qualification of a trainer certified by the league.”
“But I didn’t believe in evil, so I still embarked on the journey, and this Nidoran is my first Pokémon.”
“But when I challenged the Cerulean Gym and saw that Gyarados easily defeat Nidoran, I realized that maybe I was wrong.”
“I really don’t deserve to be a trainer… the Pokémon that follow me will become unfortunate…”
“Since then, I started working outside the home, met my love, got married, and two years ago, our child was about to be born.”
“But with my income from work, I can’t afford to raise an elf for our whole family.”
“So I set my Nidoran free here, because this is where we met…”
Dai Song’s words made everyone lower their heads, and even Xiaozhi felt a little ashamed.
Yes, if life is not forcing us, who would abandon what they love?
“Ms. Fenghua, can I ask you to take care of Nidoran? You can definitely take good care of Nidoran! Nidoran, don’t wait for me anymore. I will bring my family to visit you at Miss Fenghua’s place when I have time, okay?”
Nidoran rubbed his hands against Daisong’s, and finally walked slowly to Fenghua’s side.
Fenghua gently pressed the Youyou Ball, and after three shakes, he successfully captured it. However, no one congratulated him at all. They all felt sorry for Dai Song’s experience.
Chapter 69: Gorgeous Contest (Old Version)
Daimatsu and Fuuka seemed to want to discuss the issue of Nidoran’s cultivation, but Xiaozhi and his crew set off on their journey ahead of time after stating that they would visit Fuuka’s house later.
In less than half a day, they arrived in Hualan City.
As the water capital of Kanto, Cerulean City’s architectural style tends to be European. Although it is not close to the sea, it has a strong scent of water elements. There are endless lakes and rivers around it, and water-attributed Pokémon can be seen everywhere.
After entering Cerulean City, Ash and his companions prepared to head to the Pokémon Center of this city. Walking on the road, Ash saw that the architectural style of Cerulean City was more refreshing than that of Nibe City, and he couldn’t help but nodded.
After all, the representative gym in this city is of water attribute. Compared with Nibe City, which is represented by rock attribute and has a retro architectural style, Cerulean City appears more modern.
Ash healed his Pokémon in the Pokémon Center, but when he turned around, only Serena was left. Brock and Misty had disappeared.
“What about those two guys?”
Xiaozhi was a little uncomfortable with the fact that there were two less people around him for a while.
Serena spread her hands and replied, “Xiaoxia said she had to go back home first. She will come to see us when we challenge the gym later. Teacher just went to replenish the supplies. After all, the four of us have eaten a lot in the past few days on Yuejian Mountain.”
Teacher Gang is the nickname Serena gave to Xiaogang. After all, as a newbie, she was often guided by Xiaogang on the road.
Xiaozhi nodded and decided to go to the Cerulean Gym to challenge it immediately, so that they could continue their journey after they returned.
Soon, Serena and Xiaozhi arrived in front of the Cerulean Gym.
The Cerulean Gym is like an aquarium, with a huge white sea lion statue in front of the door. One can tell at a glance that the gym trainers here are good at using water-attribute Pokémon.
But as soon as he reached the door, Xiaozhi was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him.
The entrance was filled with people and elves dressed in luxurious clothes, and there were crackling applause and cheers coming from inside the gym.
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but frown. What was going on with this gym? When did the gym competition become open to the public?
Just as Xiaozhi and Serena were about to enter, they were stopped by a formally dressed security guard.
“Hello, both of you. The Cerulean Gym is now being used as the venue for the Cerulean City Glam Contest. If you want to enter, please go to the front desk or the Pokémon Center to buy tickets.” He pointed to a small table next to him at the door.
The Grand Contest is a stage for coordination trainers to showcase themselves.
Pokémon Coordinators are different from regular trainers in that they train Pokémon specifically for the Pokémon Contest rather than regular Pokémon Battles.
Therefore, the coordination trainers pay attention to the appearance and status of their Pokémon. They will dress up their Pokémon and let them take berries and energy cubes to improve their status. They also pay attention to the training of Pokémon’s moves, including the gorgeousness and completion of the moves.
Moreover, like ordinary trainers, they have to travel between each city, participate in the gorgeous competition in each city, win the gorgeous competition, and finally get the ribbon medal. After obtaining six ribbon medals, they can participate in the highest stage for coordination trainers – the gorgeous large-scale celebration.
But in Kanto, few people choose to be such a coordination trainer, because the coordination trainer is a new profession, and the thinking in Kanto is relatively conservative. Compared with the coordination trainers, many families hope that their children will become a trainer. This also leads to very few people who can get six ribbon medals every year. In Fengyuan or Sinnoh, the number of coordination trainers is almost the same as the number of trainers.
“Gorgeous Contest?” Serena couldn’t help but be speechless. This gorgeous contest actually requisitioned the gym’s venue. How could this be unreasonable?
It is worth mentioning that in Serena’s hometown, Carlos, since it has not been in the league for a long time, the glamour contest is not yet popular. Only the local Triple Crown Satellite Tournament is similar to the glamour contest.
But the contestants in the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament are performers, while the contestants in the Grand Tournament are coordination trainers.
So Serena had never heard of any glamour contest.
Serena sighed, feeling a little sad. She missed most of Xiaozhi’s battles in the gym last time. This time, she came to watch Xiaozhi fight seriously, not to participate in some fancy competition.
Xiaozhi didn’t expect that he would have to pay for tickets to go in and take a look, but fortunately it wasn’t expensive, 500 League Coins per person. Since he was already here, he might as well go in and take a look. It seemed like a good choice. After the game was over, the gym trainers might be able to fight him directly.
Xiaozhi took out his wallet and spent one thousand Alliance Coins to buy two tickets for Serena and himself. Then Xiaozhi took the somewhat reluctant Serena into the arena.
The seats inside were full, so Xiaozhi pulled Serena to sit in a random seat, waiting for the game to begin.
First came the judges’ seats. First came the two permanent judges, Director of the Gorgeous Contest Affairs Bureau, Konkenstein, and President of the Pokémon Fever Club, Susaki. Also a special guest, Miss Joy, who had just provided treatment for Ash’s Pokémon.
Then there was a special program specially organized to liven up the atmosphere, the face of the Hualan Gym – Water Ballet.
A large water glass room suddenly appeared in the center of the stage. Three beautiful women in the pool, who looked similar but beautiful, were wearing swimsuits. Their three pairs of long white legs kept swaying, posing various ballet poses, which drew cheers from the men on the scene.
They are indeed beautiful, but why do I feel like I have seen these three faces somewhere?
Xiaozhi was indeed like the other men at the scene, thinking that the three Hualan sisters were very beautiful, first-class beauties, but he was not as excited as the other men, because he always felt that he had seen these three women somewhere, where.
It seems like he is always by my side, so why can’t I remember him?
“Humph! Pervert, pervert, pervert! How can you perform such a thing! Xiaozhi, do you think…?”
Serena complained softly, then turned her head to look at Xiaozhi who was sitting next to her, trying to persuade Xiaozhi to go back with her. But it would have been fine if she hadn’t looked, but once she did, the little girl was furious.
“Hey! Xiaozhi! What are you looking at?” Serena asked Xiaozhi with some anger.
“Watch the water ballet. You’ve paid for it, so why not? Besides, none of them are as pretty as you. It’s nothing wrong for me to see you every day.” Xiaozhi shrugged his shoulders and replied simply after his thoughts were interrupted.
“You… humph!” When Serena heard Xiaozhi say this, her face suddenly flushed.
Xiaozhi also felt that what he said was a bit ambiguous, so he turned around and continued watching the show.
The water ballet ended quickly, and then the main competition of the gorgeous contest began.
The first round of review is also called the unveiling, where each trainer who has registered for the competition will show off their gorgeous moves based on the level of tacit understanding between themselves and their Pokémon.
But to Xiaozhi’s disappointment, there was almost nothing outstanding in the following performances, until…
“Next is contestant No. 66, contestant Ai’er from Carlos!”
This sentence attracted the attention of Xiaozhi and Serena. After all, Serena was also from Kalos. Meeting a fellow countryman in Kanto naturally added some favor to Serena.
Ai’er is a big sister with waist-length hair. She looks to be around twenty years old. She is wearing an elegant dress. She slowly recognizes a Poké Ball.
“Charm moment! Long-tailed fire fox!”
The moment the long-tailed fire fox appeared, Serena’s fire fox actually ran out of the Poké Ball by itself.
The long-tailed fire fox is an evolved form of the fire fox, and appears to be more elegant and cute.
The long-tailed fire fox walked out slowly from the Poké Ball with the heart-shaped tail, stepping lightly on the heart with every step, and then the heart disappeared immediately.
Illusion?
Xiaozhi immediately guessed in his mind that Longtailed Torch is a Pokémon with fire and psychic attributes, so it is not surprising that it would use this trick.
“Use magic space!”
Ai’er turned around on the stage, and finally a long-tailed fire fox jumped up from a heart. The magic space was activated, and a wonderful feeling appeared in front of everyone.
“Jet flame!”
As the long-tailed fire fox landed gracefully, Ai’er gave another order.
The long-tailed fire fox immediately took out the branch on its tail, and a powerful flame suddenly burst out from the branch, continuously hitting the wall of the magic space.
Finally, the space was broken, and the long-tailed fire fox came to the sky again. And at the moment when the long-tailed fire fox took off, the magic space and the jet flames exploded completely, turning into fireworks formed by the fusion of superpowers and flames.
Chapter 70: The Weakest Gym (Old Version)
“So… so beautiful…”
Serena looked at the performance in front of her in amazement. She was deeply moved by her son’s stunning performance.
As Ai’er bowed and left the stage, the whole audience burst into warm applause and cheers.
Xiaozhi couldn’t help but be secretly shocked.
Ai’er’s performance just now almost reached the extreme in terms of control over special moves and props. First, he used illusion to control the tail of the Poké Ball to swing upwards. The reason why the Long-Tailed Fox could perform such a magical move was naturally because he carried a prop – a balloon.
The balloon can allow the long-tailed fire fox to suspend in the air for a short period of time, and the magic space is a move that can make the elf’s props ineffective for a short period of time. When the magic space is activated, the long-tailed fire fox falls to the ground and uses jet flames to collide with the magic space, eventually creating fireworks. The moment the magic space disappears, the balloon works again, allowing the long-tailed fire fox to fly into the air, making the whole performance extremely perfect.
In the end, Ai’er naturally won the place in the second round of review with the first place in the total score. She stood out among the 16 people in the second round of review and won the championship of the Hualan City Gorgeous Competition.
“Xiaozhi, did you see that? Miss Aier is so amazing! I wish I could be like her in the future…”
When leaving the stage, Serena kept talking to Xiaozhi about her own views, and had long forgotten who was very reluctant to enter the venue of the gorgeous competition.
Xiaozhi just laughed dryly and said nothing. He had to admit that his son was indeed very amazing, both as a coordination trainer and a performer.
But what Xiaozhi didn’t expect was that when she took Serena to the backstage of the gym to find the trainer of the Cerulean City gym, Ai’er and Longtailed Fox happened to be backstage as well. Serena immediately approached them like a little fan girl.
“Ms. Ai’er! Hello, I’m from Kalos too. You’re amazing! You will definitely become the best coordination trainer!”
Serena said to her son who had changed into casual clothes.
Ai’er nodded and then shook her head.
“Hello, Serena, thank you, but I won’t be a coordination trainer, I’ll be a performer.”
“If that’s the case, why do you still want to participate in the Grand Tournament? Wouldn’t it be better for you to stay in Kalos and participate in the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament?”
Serena asked in great confusion.
Ai Er closed her eyes and said, “Because I don’t have the strength to defeat the Queen of Carlos—Miss Yashio.”
“So I will use the glamour competition to constantly hone myself, and when I go back next year, I will re-enter the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament! My goal is to become the Carlos Queen!”
Ai’er seemed to be speaking to Serena, but also seemed to be speaking to himself.
Yashio is a well-known name in Kalos. Since her debut at the age of 18, she has been sitting on the throne of the Queen of Kalos. No one can defeat her in the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament. She is now 38 years old.
“We are all children of Kalos. I cannot let the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament be completely cut off in our generation.”
Ai Er sighed and continued.
After all, ever since Carlos joined the alliance, the alliance’s culture and the local culture will naturally impact each other. The Gorgeous Tournament and the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament are the first representatives.
“Queen Carlos… a performer…”
Serena said thoughtfully.
“Thank you for listening to me. I have to go back. If you want, you can work with me.”
Ai’er patted Serena’s shoulder and left with the long-tailed fire fox.
Xiaozhi called Serena, who was worried, and found the three sisters who were performing water ballet as a warm-up program.
When I first met the three people, I hadn’t changed out of my swimsuit yet, and even my hair was still wet.
“Miss Ai’er is really amazing. It would be great if she was willing to stay and perform with us~”
“That’s right, I was so engrossed in Miss Ai’er’s performance that I didn’t even change my clothes or blow dry my hair~”
The three girls were talking about their own performances today and admiring their son’s performance, feeling very happy.
The three beauties quickly noticed Xiaozhi and Serena walking towards them and asked:
“Oh my god, man, do you dare to ask us for an autograph when your girlfriend is right next to you?”
Xiaozhi glanced at Serena who was still thinking about something and seemed not to have heard what they said clearly, and quickly waved his hand and said:
“No, my name is Satoshi, and I’m here to challenge a gym. This is my traveling partner. May I ask where the gym trainer is?”
At this moment, a person appeared from nowhere, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
Xiao Gang held the flowers in his hands, raised them to the three girls, and said:
“My name is Xiaogang. May I invite you to join us…”
Before Xiao Gang finished speaking, one of the blonde women interrupted:
“Ah, are you challenging a gym again? Hello, we are gym trainers in Cerulean City. We are the older sister of these two, Sakura.”
“Can we have dinner together…?”
Another blue-haired woman interrupted what Xiao Gang wanted to say: “Hello, Acorus, the second of the three sisters. My name is Acorus.”
“Um… can I invite you guys to have dinner together…”
The pink-haired woman interrupted Xiao Gang again and said:
“Hello, I’m Peony, the youngest of the three sisters. Since you want to challenge a gym, please follow us.”
“Wow, they are all ignoring me…”
Xiaogang felt like crying but had no tears left, and began to complain.
Xiaozhi sighed, feeling very helpless, and said to Xiaogang.
“Teacher Gang, where did you come from…”
Because he had heard this name for a long time, even Xiaozhi was led astray by a few people and started to call it that too.
But Xiaogang still cried and said to Xiaozhi: “Xiaozhi! I used to be a gym trainer, please forgive me, wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu.”
At this moment, in a corner of the Hualan Gym, an orange-haired girl was clenching her fists tightly.
“Damn it, this Xiaogang is so annoying!”
The girl said with an unhappy look on her face.
Under the leadership of Sakura and the other two, Xiaozhi pulled Serena to a huge water field. It was obvious at first glance that it was the home field of water-attribute Pokémon. The only land was the trainers’ platforms on both sides and several floating boards on the water for the Pokémon to stand on.
“This is the water battle site of the Cerulean Gym.”
Every gym leader has the right to plan the gym’s site. For example, Nibe City uses a rocky site that is prone to sandstorms, while the Cerulean Gym naturally uses a water site.
Sakura stood between the three of them, patted Ayame’s shoulder, and spoke to Ayame.
“Ayame, I’m counting on you for this match.”
Ayame immediately retorted, “Why me? Isn’t it usually you, Big Sister, who goes to compete as the gym trainer?”
“Sigh…” Sakura sighed and continued, “I have lost all my fighting spirit now, and my Pokémon was beaten badly by the previous trainer with Stottle, and is still receiving treatment at the Pokémon Center…” Sakura spread her hands and said helplessly.
“But sister, when you went to the Pokémon Center yesterday, my Pokémon was beaten by a girl holding Bulbasaur and had no fighting power at all. I didn’t expect that girl was so cute, but so powerful…” Acorus replied with envy on her face.
So the two girls looked at each other, and then immediately turned their gazes to the other gym trainer present.
“Peony, how about we leave it to you next? Although you haven’t really received challengers as a gym trainer, we believe in you!”
“The glory of the Cerulean Gym will always protect you!”
Peony was at a loss: “But I only have this one goldfish…”
Mudan is the weakest among the three. It has been who knows how long since her initial elf, the Horned Goldfish, evolved into the Goldfish King.
Ever since the father of the three girls left his Pokémon behind to travel, the three sisters found that they had no way of commanding their father’s Pokémon, so they focused on water ballet performances every day and had not carried out their daily training as gym trainers for an unknown period of time.
This also led to the Kanto region labeling them as the weakest gym.
Sakura, Acorus, and Peony looked at each other, then looked at Satoshi and nodded. Finally, Sakura waved towards the swimming pool, and a little sea lion emerged from the water, sticking out its tongue. On its tongue was the purpose of Satoshi’s challenge this time – the blue badge.
“Xiaozhi, do you want this? If you do, take it.”
Sakura handed the badge to Satoshi and nodded.
Xiaozhi sighed, feeling helpless.
It seems that he can only go to other gyms in the end. After all, if he really gets the badge this way, even if the league recognizes it, he himself will not admit it.
Chapter 71: Battle against Xiaoxia 1 (Old Version)
“We haven’t won since Dad left our gym… The Pokémon Dad gave us are not obedient at all, ah…”
Sakura spread her hands and said.
“Isn’t it all because your trainer level is too low?”
Suddenly, a familiar female voice appeared in everyone’s ears.
Everyone looked up and saw that the person who appeared was one of Xiaozhi’s travel partners – Xiaoxia.
“Xiaoxia?”*3
What surprised Serena was not only that the girl who appeared was Xiaoxia, but also the reactions of the three sisters.
But unlike Serena, Xiaozhi said without any surprise: “I wonder when you are willing to come out…”
Xiaogang patted Xiaozhi on the shoulder and asked in confusion: “Xiaozhi, you have known this all along? Xiaoxia is from the Cerulean Gym…”
Xiaozhi shrugged and answered as a matter of course: “I have always known it, since I met her in Viridian City.”
Xiaozhi’s reaction made Xiaogang speechless, and Xiaoxia felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Then what’s the point of me hiding my identity for so long!
“Forget it, I’m the youngest of the four beautiful sisters of Cerulean, Xiaozhi, I’ll fight you in this match!”
Xiaoxia looked at Xiaozhi’s indifferent look and said.
But Sakura corrected her at the moment: “No, no, it should be the three beautiful sisters and the ugly duckling.”
Sakura’s correction immediately made Xiaoxia grit her teeth, but at this time, Ayame continued to ask: “Why did you come back so soon?”
Mudan also spoke up: “Who was the one who boasted that he would not go home unless he could become a partner with the elves left behind by dad?”
“So that’s how it is. No wonder Xiaoxia doesn’t want to come back here…”
Serena said secretly while hiding behind Xiaozhi.
Seeing Misty gritting her teeth, Xiaozhi and the other two finally understood why Misty was reluctant to return to Cerulean City.
“What? You obviously couldn’t stand being compared to our three beautiful sisters, so you deliberately used the excuse of training Pokémon to go on a trip.”
“Don’t talk nonsense!”
Seeing Xiaoxia’s frustrated look, Yinghua wiped away the tears on her face and said, “I didn’t expect you to escape back so soon. I’m so sad…”
“That’s not the case. There’s something wrong with this boy!”
Xiaoxia was anxious for a moment, pointed at Xiaozhi next to her and said.
But Xiaozhi felt that this statement was awkward no matter how he heard it.
What do you mean there is something wrong with her? It makes it seem like I am having an affair with Xiaoxia.
Sakura and the other two were shocked. They looked at Xiaozhi, sized him up, and then looked at Serena behind Xiaozhi: “No! Xiaoxia, how can you interfere with other people’s feelings? Although polygamy is allowed by law, are you really willing to live with three people?”
Xiaozhi almost fell down when he heard this. Even Serena beside him blushed and said, “No… It’s not like that. He and I are not in that kind of relationship…”
“That’s not the point of the problem! There’s nothing wrong between him and me! Anyway, the Cerulean Gym is not the weakest gym that will hand over its badge without a fight. I will protect the reputation of the Cerulean Gym!”
“No, that’s not right. I gave one away yesterday. That trainer was really handsome.” Sakura interrupted and said in a somewhat infatuated way.
Misty glared at her sister, then looked at Satoshi and said, “Satoshi, fight me! This blue badge is the stakes!”
Xiaoxia was so angry that she jumped up and down and came to Xiaozhi’s side.
“I don’t have any problem…”
Looking at Xiaoxia, whose eyes were about to burst into flames, Xiaozhi nodded subconsciously.
“Even if you win, we won’t take you to dance water ballet~”
Peony teased.
“I! Say! I! Will! Never! Do! Water! Ballet!” Xiaoxia seemed to be disgusted with the term “water ballet” and spoke every word with gritted teeth.
Xiaoxia’s momentum frightened the three sisters, but Mudan still waved her hand and said:
“He may not have a big chest, but he has a big mouth. This electric mouse is obviously of high level. If you have the ability, defeat him and show me how.”
Misty looked at Ash and pointed at the trainer platform opposite. Ash immediately understood and slowly walked to the trainer platform.
The referee took his position immediately.
“The Gym Challenge between the challenger Ash and the gym trainer Misty is now underway, with the blue badge as the stakes. The rules of the match are 3v3. The challenger can change Pokémon at will, but the gym trainer cannot change Pokémon. The match conditions are that the challenger attacks first, and the gym trainer has priority in sending out Pokémon.”
As the rules of the competition were announced, Misty immediately sent out her first Pokémon.
“Mosquito Frog, go, my baby!”
Misty swung the Poké Ball, and instantly, a blue Pokémon that walked upright and had a spiral pattern on its belly appeared on the field.
The mosquito-coated frog. In recent years, the official data of the Kanto Alliance has changed its name to mosquito-coated frog, but the local people in Kanto still call it the mosquito-coated frog, and only outsiders use the official nickname.
“Mosquito Frog… Then I’ll use you!”
Xiaozhi also threw out a Poké Ball, and Riolu appeared. Since Riolu had done special training with Xiaozhi, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and he has also learned a lot of new moves.
When the battle started, Xiaozhi immediately closed his eyes, connected with Riolu’s waveguide, and ordered: “Riolu, block it with rocks.”
Riolu learned this move recently using the Rock Block Skill Learning Device given by Brock.
In fact, this is a very good move, which can cause damage while slowing down the opponent.
At some point, two not-so-big rocks of earth appeared at Riolu’s feet, and Riolu immediately kicked them out and threw them at the mosquito frog.
“Break them up with water guns!”
A stream of water immediately spurted out of the frog’s mouth, smashing the two rocks into pieces.
After all, the water attribute restrains the rock attribute, so it was natural for this move to be resolved, but Riolu immediately took action again, and two wave energy turned into light blades and hit the mosquito frog.
This time, not only Xiaoxia failed to react, but even the mosquito frog failed to react. It was unable to dodge and was hit into the water by two light blades.
This was the order that Xiaozhi gave using the waveguide. He had deliberately told Xiaoxia about the previous rock blockade in order to make her relax her vigilance and thus enable the subsequent attack.
“Damn it, how despicable!”
Xiaoxia couldn’t help but complain in her heart, but after all, she had been traveling with Xiaozhi for such a long time, so she soon cheered up again.
Chapter 72: Battle against Xiaoxia 2 (Old Version)
“Mosquito Frog, use hypnosis next!”
Following Xiaoxia’s command, the ripples on the mosquito-repellent frog’s body began to rotate, which was obviously a sign of hypnosis.
Xiaozhi sighed. It seemed that even after traveling with him for so long, Xiaoxia still didn’t know what the power of wave was used for.
“Riolu, close your eyes.”
Xiaozhi ordered slowly.
Riolu closed his eyes instantly, used the waveguide to continuously sense the external environment, and then rushed towards the mosquito frog at a high speed.
“Exert your strength.”
This time, Xiaozhi did not use the power of waveguide to transmit information, but spoke it directly.
Then Riolu slapped the mosquito-coated frog’s wavy belly with his palm, and exerted force instantly, and the mosquito-coated frog flew backwards.
“Mosquito Frog! Don’t give up! Use Water Wave!”
The mosquito frog quickly adjusted its body in the sky, condensed an energy ball made of water element in its hand, and was about to throw it in the direction of Riolu, but a trace of electricity ran through its body, and the water waves dissipated instantly.
This is the follow-up effect of exerting force. There is a chance that the opponent’s tendons will be pressed, causing him to fall into a paralyzed state.
Even the goddess of luck was not on Xiaoxia’s side in this battle.
“It’s over, use the tile splitting move.”
Following Xiaozhi’s order, Riolu appeared next to the Frog again at some point, with white light coming out of his hands, and slashed towards the Frog.
The mosquito frog was already in a paralyzed state and its speed was restricted. How could it possibly dodge this attack? It was knocked away again.
As the mosquito-coated frog fell to the ground, mosquito-coated circles appeared in its eyes and it completely lost its ability to fight.
“Mosquito is incapable of fighting! Riolu wins!”
“What the hell, how could Xiaoxia lose so badly?”
Mudan was watching the fight from the audience. Even though she usually liked to mock Xiaoxia, she was still Xiaoxia’s sister after all, so she couldn’t help but feel a little worried.
“No, that mosquito frog has done very well… When Xiaoxia took it out, it was still a mosquito tadpole. It’s great that it has made such great progress in such a short time.”
Sakura shook her head and said to Peony.
Acorus also nodded, agreeing with Sakura’s opinion and Xiaoxia’s progress.
“Xia’s strength is not just this.”
Xiao Gang said from the side, causing all the girls to be slightly stunned.
On the field, Misty took back Frog, feeling a little regretful. Frog had actually performed very well in this match, but the opponent was this guy named Satoshi, and the auxiliary effect of Wave Force was too strong for the battle.
Xiaozhi glanced at Misty opposite him, finally shook his head, took Riolu back, and said to Pikachu next to him.
“You go ahead, I also want to see Xiaoxia’s current strongest strength.”
Pikachu was in a difficult situation. After all, Misty and Pikachu interacted a lot in the normal times, and Pikachu couldn’t help but feel a little hesitant to do anything to someone close to him.
“It’s okay. If you really respect her, then you should fight her with your strongest strength. That’s the respect for a trainer.”
Xiaozhi said as he patted Pikachu’s head.
Pikachu thought about it, and finally made up his mind, and slowly walked onto the battle stage.
“It’s Pikachu… It’s finally here… Then I’ll use it! Come on, my baby! Goldfish King!”
Xiaoxia threw a Poké Ball and the expression on her face immediately became relieved.
She knows Pikachu very well. This goldfish king was trained by Xiaoxia based on Pikachu as a template to specifically fight against electric-attribute Pokémon.
“It’s the Goldfish King. So the horned goldfish I gave her has also evolved…”
Mudan sighed, and couldn’t help but feel a bit of admiration for Xiaoxia.
On the battlefield, Xiaozhi used the system to glance at the data of the Goldfish King and couldn’t help but frowned secretly.
There is no other reason, Pikachu is at a great disadvantage against this goldfish king.
But seeing Pikachu’s fighting spirit, Xiaozhi didn’t want to replace it anymore, and immediately ordered: “Pikachu, lightning flash.”
As Xiaozhi gave the order, Pikachu suddenly gathered strength in his body, white light appeared all over his body, and he rushed towards the King Goldfish.
“Goldfish King, hide under the water!”
Following Xiaoxia’s command, the Goldfish King immediately dived and avoided the lightning move.
Xiaoxia’s actions immediately made the three Hualan sisters in the stands anxious.
“No, Misty! Water is conductive! If Pikachu uses an Electric-type move, there’s no way to dodge it!”
The most advantageous Pokémon in the Water Field are actually Electric-attribute Pokémon, because water is conductive, so Electric-attribute moves become AOE skills for the entire field.
Pikachu did the same thing, without even Ash saying anything, he used a 100,000-volt move to hit the target in the water.
“Don’t! Pikachu!”
Xiaozhi didn’t expect Pikachu to take action on his own, so he immediately stopped him.
But it was too late. Almost instantly, the entire edge of the pool began to crackle with electricity.
Trouble
Finished…
Two different mentalities arose in the hearts of Xiaozhi and the three Hualan sisters.
As Xiaozhi stopped him, Pikachu immediately stopped and looked at Xiaozhi with a puzzled look on his face.
But what surprised Pikachu was that the Kingfish actually slowly floated out of the water again, seemed to have become more energetic, and there was not even a sign of injury.
“It’s a lightning rod! The characteristic of this goldfish king is a lightning rod!”
Xiaogang in the stands slapped his thigh and finally understood what Xiaoxia relied on.
The three girls couldn’t help but marvel at it. They didn’t expect Xiaoxia to have this skill.
“This round is going to be difficult for Xiaozhi.”
Xiaogang looked at Xiaozhi who seemed a little helpless and said.
“No, Xiaozhi will not lose.”
Serena, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke. Her serious expression drew everyone’s attention to her.
On the playing field, Pikachu, knowing that he had gotten into trouble, looked at Ash embarrassedly, while Ash also looked at Pikachu helplessly.
“Shadow clone, we still have a chance.”
Pikachu executed immediately, and countless shadows appeared on the battlefield.
“Ash, this won’t work, Goldfish King, use Surf.”
Xiaoxia put her hands on her hips and smiled at Xiaozhi.
Above the water field, a huge wave rolled up and rushed towards Pikachu, dispersing countless shadows.
In the blink of an eye, only the last figure was left.
“That’s him, using Surf!”
Xiaoxia pointed at the last Pikachu on the field and said, as if this battle had been won.
Chapter 73: Battle against Xiaoxia 3 (Old Version)
But what Xiaoxia couldn’t have imagined was that as the huge waves rolled over, the last Pikachu also disappeared instantly. It turned out that this Pikachu was also a fake!
“What!?”
Xiaoxia couldn’t help but be shocked, and began to look for Pikachu’s true form again. Now Kingfisher has transformed Pikachu’s electricity into his own special attack, and he has a chance to kill Pikachu instantly with this surfing move.
“Next to you, Pikachu, use Iron Tail.”
Pikachu actually appeared on the huge wave, with his feet stepping on the electric current, as if he had turned the electric current into a surfboard. He was on the huge wave, looking at the panicked Kingfish.
Pikachu immediately jumped up, hardened its tail, and blew the Kingfisher away, and the huge wave finally dissipated.
“Use a wrestling blow.”
“Don’t lose to him! Use the Super Horn Attack!”
Ash and Misty gave orders again, and Pikachu quickly approached Kingfisher. Kingfisher reacted immediately, using its sharp horns to gather powerful energy and momentum and attacked Pikachu.
Pikachu was holding Kingfisher, but was unable to throw it out because of the opponent’s Super Horn Attack. He had to change the angle and aim himself and Kingfisher’s body towards the land on the shore. In the end, both Pikachu and Kingfisher fell to the ground.
Xiaogang and the three Hualan sisters could not help but be a little shocked. The two players’ game in this exciting match was so professional.
As the referee came forward to check, circles appeared in the eyes of Kingfisher and Pikachu, and it was obvious that they could no longer continue fighting.
“Pikachu and Kingfisher both lose their ability to fight at the same time!”
The referee announced.
Xiaoxia took back the Goldfish King, and thought she could rely on the Goldfish King to win back the game, but in the end it ended in a draw, which she did not expect.
Xiaozhi walked forward, picked up Pikachu, went to the stands and handed it to Xiaogang who had been waiting there, then immediately returned to the battle stage.
“Xiaozhi, you are really awesome! But I won’t lose to you so easily! Go! My baby! Gem Starfish!”
Misty’s last Pokémon is the Gemstar that Ash had seen before. It is worth mentioning that the level and skill pool of this Gemstar are very terrifying, but it seems that Misty is unable to use it well.
Unlike Gyarados which is completely disobedient, this Gemstar has a very good relationship with Misty. However, with Misty’s combat experience, it seems that there is no way to bring out the full strength of Gemstar.
“It’s Daddy’s jeweled starfish!”
The three girls were surprised. They didn’t expect that Xiaoxia could already send out her father’s Pokémon to fight.
“Gem Starfish… I’ll use it then!”
Xiaozhi threw out a completely blood-red precious ball, and a blood-red long sword appeared with a single scabbard. The murderous nature in his body was immediately released, which scared the three Hualan sisters in the audience.
“Don’t be fooled by his aggressive aura. He is actually a very obedient child.”
Xiao Gang explained on the side.
Indeed, Lone Sword’s loyalty to Ash is probably the highest among all of Ash’s Pokémon. Even Pikachu sometimes fights with its own thinking, but Lone Sword will never act on its own unless Ash speaks.
“Sword sheath alone, hide in the shadows.”
The battle started immediately and Xiaozhi gave orders immediately.
According to Du Jianshao’s talent in utilizing shadows, this move is always effective, so Xiaozhi immediately used it.
Xiaoxia smiled and said, “Use telekinesis to catch it! Then use 100,000 volts!”
Misty knows every one of Ash’s Pokémon very well, including this one, the Sword Scabbard.
The gem in the center of the Gem Starfish’s body flashed, and Du Jianshao, who had just escaped into the shadow’s body, was pulled out in an instant. Then a strong electric current hit him, causing Du Jianshao to feel pain.
“Xiaozhi, although the sword sheath has good control over the shadow, its speed is too slow. As long as we use the psychic attribute move to pull it out before it wants to enter the shadow, it will be no problem at all.”
Xiaozhi also nodded. This was also something that Dujianshao needed customer service for recently.
“You’re right, but it’s a pity that the single sword sheath is lightweight!”
Following Xiaozhi’s order, the metal material on the scabbard of the sword changed rapidly, and the speed of the entire Pokémon became even faster.
“So I’ve already mastered it. What about the next move? Use your mental strength!”
Xiaoxia smiled, she knew that Xiaozhi was practicing this trick to overcome this weakness of the customer service these days, but she just wanted to see whether Xiaozhi had actually mastered it.
The light body of Du Jianshao was immediately controlled, which made Xiaozhi feel a little embarrassed.
If the original single sword sheath was too heavy, it would definitely not be controlled by the Gem Starfish’s mental power. However, after the weight was reduced this time, the Gem Starfish’s control over the single sword sheath was further improved.
It seems that Xiaoxia has studied Xiaozhi a lot and she can actually think of such a chain reaction.
“Use a metallic tone.”
Xiaozhi spoke slowly, and a terrifying noise suddenly came from the scabbard, which not only interfered with the use of the psychic attribute of the gem starfish, but also made Xiaoxia cover her ears.
“Then use the shadow to sneak attack…”
Xiaozhi was about to give an order when he found something wrong with the sword sheath.
“just!”
Du Jianshao shouted loudly, and a dazzling white light suddenly appeared all over his body, and his entire figure began to change.
Is this… the light of evolution?
It changed from a single long sword to two crossed swords, with an even stronger murderous aura, causing the Gem Starfish to take a few steps back.
The white light gradually faded away, and the single sword scabbard had completed its evolution and evolved into a double sword scabbard.
“This is… evolution! The sword sheath has completed its evolution during the battle!”
Xiao Gang in the audience shouted.
Xiaozhi looked up and immediately used the system to scan the data of the double scabbards and nodded.
Xiaoxia quickly adjusted her own and the Gem Starfish’s status. If the opponent suddenly evolved during the battle, it would be a huge boost to the opponent’s momentum.
“It actually evolved… It’s okay, Gem Starfish, use the water cannon!”
At Xiaoxia’s command, the gems on the body of the gem starfish instantly sprayed out a giant column of water. The terrifying water pressure tore through the air, causing bursts of breaking sounds.
“Double scabbards, cut it off.”
Xiaozhi reacted immediately, and the two sharp hilts of the double scabbards rushed forward instantly, easily cutting off the water cannon in the shape of an X.
“Shadow sneak attack.”
After defusing the water cannon, Xiaozhi immediately gave another order, and the two scabbards immediately fell into the shadows.
“Pull it out quickly! Use your mental strength!”
Xiaoxia did the same thing, but this time the double scabbards were not pulled out. Perhaps it was because after the evolution, its ability to counter strong mental thoughts was stronger, or perhaps it was because its larger size made it impossible for the Gem Starfish to completely control it.
One of the hilts of the double scabbards instantly appeared behind the Gem Starfish, and the sword slashed at the back of the Gem Starfish. Just as the Gem Starfish turned around to fight back, another sword slashed at his back.
After attacking the Gem Starfish, the two sharp swords once again transformed into double scabbards.
This is the unique fighting style of the Double Scabbards. It is somewhat similar to the two-headed dragon in Unova, which can use two different heads to perform different special moves. The Double Scabbards can split their two long swords into two parts to fight separately, and both swords have independent consciousness.
After the Gem Starfish was hit by two consecutive and extremely effective Shadow sneak attacks, the gems on its body began to flash brightly, indicating exhaustion. Xiaoxia was doomed to fail in this round.
“Final blow, Shadow Ball.”
Xiaozhi did not hold back and quickly ordered the two scabbards to deliver the final blow.
A shadow ball of ghostly energy suddenly appeared between the two swords in the double scabbards and flew towards the Gem Starfish, hitting its target.
Xiaoxia couldn’t help but lower her head, tears welling up in her eyes.
“Starfish lost its ability to fight, and the Sword Scabbard won, so the winner of this match is the challenger Xiaozhi!”
Brock and Serena were just about to go on stage to congratulate Satoshi, but Satoshi looked a little solemn because he saw Misty, who was standing opposite him, actually started crying.
Chapter 74: Water Master (Old Version)
Bead-sized tears flowed down Misty’s face, and Satoshi and his two companions, as well as Sakura and her two companions, immediately walked up to her side.
“Xiaoxia, you played very well in this game… Don’t cry…”
After all, the three of them are Xiaoxia’s sisters. Seeing their sister crying, they can’t help but feel a little pity.
“That’s right…Xiaoxia, after all, your opponent is Xiaozhi, it’s normal to lose.”
Xiaogang and Serena also comforted him.
“Humph..who said I was crying! I won’t cry over something like this!”
Xiaoxia sniffed, wiped the tears from her face, and handed the badge she had just put in her pocket to Xiaozhi who remained silent.
“Here, take it. This is proof of victory over the Cerulean Gym. The blue badge.”
Xiaozhi took the badge and put it in his pocket, then said to Xiaoxia: “Your training is not enough. The power of that gem starfish is more than this.”
Listening to Xiaozhi’s words, Xiaoxia nodded slowly, as if she had made a decision.
“By the way, Xiaoxia, can you stay here from now on? Your strength should be more than enough to face those gym challengers.”
Sakura saw that Xiaoxia had calmed down and said to her.
“That’s right. You are much stronger than us. It seems like a good idea for you to inherit dad’s gym.”
Acorus also nodded beside him.
But Xiaoxia immediately refused and said, “The Pokémon my father left for us can’t follow me now, because I am not strong enough to control them. Even Gyarados still doesn’t recognize me. I must become stronger and realize my dream with everyone!”
“I will definitely become the most powerful water-attribute Pokémon master!”
Xiaoxia looked at her three sisters with admiring eyes and continued, “But! Hualan Gym is the glory that Dad fought for. I don’t want to hear the reputation of the weakest gym anymore. During the time I am away from Hualan Gym, you must not hand over the badge so easily! You must train hard!!!”
Listening to Xiaoxia’s somewhat excited speech, the three girls couldn’t help but feel a little ashamed and said weakly:
“But…water ballet also needs to be practiced…”
“Otherwise… the Hualan Gym will have no income…”
“Xiaoxia…you don’t want to lose your living expenses while traveling, do you?”
The three girls’ pitiful explanations made Xiaoxia feel a little embarrassed.
After all, everyone has their own aspirations, and her three sisters are not good at training Pokémon. If they could train a gym-level Pokémon, she would probably have accompanied Xiaozhi to complete the Kanto League Quartz Conference by then.
“that…”
Xiaogang spoke slowly, as if he had thought of something.
“My name is Xiao Gang, and I am a gym trainer in Nibi City. I have a suggestion that you can refer to…”
“Then just say, stay away from my sister.”
Xiaoxia directly grabbed Xiaogang and pulled him back when he was about to move forward.
After all, they have been traveling together for a while. This guy has a dark appearance, looks honest and simple, and is just as reliable as Xiaozhi. If he wants to become a breeder’s man, there are actually more than one problem.
This guy can’t even walk when he sees a pretty girl! I can’t let this guy harm my sister!
“When I left the gym some time ago, I left my Rhydon there as a fighting force for my father and brother to rely on when facing challengers. I even teleported my Rhydon back a few days ago. Now I only have Geodude and Onix with me. What I mean is, Misty, you can leave a few Pokémon in the gym as fighting force, and then your sisters can use those Pokémon to accept challenges from challengers.”
Xiaoxia pinched her chin and finally nodded, handing a Poké Ball in her hand to her three sisters. This was the Pokémon that her three sisters gave her before she went out on a journey.
It was the same goldfish king that Xiaozhi had just fought against.
“The Goldfish King is a Pokémon that I have worked so hard to cultivate and evolve. You must take good care of it!”
Xiaoxia said with some reluctance.
Sakura nodded, took the Poké Ball from the Goldfish King, then clapped her hands towards the edge of the swimming pool, and a little sea lion slowly floated up.
“Xiaoxia, take this child with you on your trip.”
Sakura said.
“But here at the gym…”
Xiaoxia was a little hesitant, after all, the gym also lacked Pokémon as fighting force.
“Don’t worry, with the King Goldfish and our Pokémon, there will be no problem. And this little sea lion is a wild Pokémon. I don’t know when it ran to our aquarium, and then it didn’t want to leave. I hope you can take it back to its hometown.”
Sakura patted Xiaoxia’s head and said.
At this moment, the two finally looked like sisters. Otherwise, Xiaozhi would have thought they were enemies based on their previous appearance.
Xiaoxia came to the little sea lion, and the little sea lion clapped his hands happily.
“Little sea lion, I’ll need your guidance in the future.”
Xiaoxia smiled and hugged the little sea lion, and the little sea lion seemed to like Xiaoxia very much and was officially conquered by Xiaoxia.
In this way, Xiaozhi successfully got the second badge, and Xiaoxia also got the little sea lion. The four of them said goodbye to Sakura and the other two at the door of the Cerulean Gym.
“Xiaoxia, you must work hard and strive to be a trainer. Otherwise, not only will you not be as pretty as us, but you will also…”
Sakura teased Misty with a smile.
The other two sisters also looked at Xiaoxia with a smile.
“I’m not defeated by you! I will be prettier than you in the future!”
Xiaoxia wanted to say something but was interrupted by Acorus.
“Okay, never mind it, we were just kidding.”
Mudan also patted Xiaoxia on the shoulder and said, “Okay, Xiaoxia, you have to be careful.”
Xiaoxia nodded and turned to Xiaozhi.
“That’s how it is, so I’m going to travel with you from now on, and just because of the bicycle, you have to accept me!”
Xiaozhi was speechless. Xiaoxia had talked about this bicycle issue many times, but Xiaozhi just didn’t know why he was blamed for the bicycle issue.
“It’s up to you. It’s been so long anyway. I’d be uncomfortable without you. Okay, let’s go, Xiaogang, Serena.”
Xiaozhi said this somewhat insincerely, calling Xiaogang and Serena to leave.
“Hey! Wait for me!”
The three Sakura girls looked at Xiaoxia who was slowly leaving, feeling somewhat reluctant but also somewhat happy.
“Sister Sakura, Xiaoxia has already left…”
“Yeah, it’s great to see her making such great friends.”
“It’s up to you to inherit Dad’s legacy, Xiaoxia…”
After the three girls saw that Xiaoxia had disappeared from their sight, they slowly returned to the Hualan Gym.
