He knows Pokémon better than me

Walk out of the beach along the steps of the embankment and climb to a high point. Next to it is a small town.

However, this place is not as modern and prosperous as Hau Le City. Although this small town has neat roads, the shops and buildings on both sides do not have too fancy decorations. They are all one- and two-story short bungalows. building.

There are some open-air vendors on both sides of the street with simple roofs. Even when it is almost noon, there are still some vendors who haven't gotten up yet.

The fruits on the stall are placed on top and covered with linen cloth, so they are not afraid of being stolen.

The local people who passed Xiaozhi did not walk very fast, and most of them had relaxed expressions on their faces.

"Alola~!"

"Alola, Mao~!"

"Alora, is this a new guest~?"

Along the way, there were many people saying hello to Mao. It seemed that the latter was quite popular here.

There were also a few people curiously looking at Xiaozhi who they had never seen before. Was he an outsider?

"My restaurant is at the corner in front, it will be there soon~!"

Mao happily pointed ahead and could already see it from a distance.

However, Xiaozhi's eyes fell on a little black cat walking towards him on the street ahead.

Its body shape is similar to that of Eevee, but it is a short-haired cat, so it appears to be a little thinner.

The hair on the head, body and slender tail is black, and the limbs have red and black stripes.

He has a pair of golden eyes and a tiger-like cross pattern on his forehead. He is obviously not big, but he walks with the aura of a king.

It looked like he was taking a leisurely walk, or like a monarch patrolling his territory.

"Who is this little black cat?!"

Xiaozhi's eyes lit up. It's rare to see a Pokémon with such sharp eyes!

"Beep! Fire-spotted cat, with a fire attribute, is one of the three royal families in the Alola region. He rarely shows emotion and likes to live alone. When he licks the hair on his body, he will swallow it into his belly. If necessary, he can burn his belly. The hair inside, thus spitting out a strong flame Lotto~!”

Rotom immediately volunteered and introduced.

"Is this the three fire-attribute royal families in Alola?!"

Xiaozhi looked surprised and couldn't take his eyes away from the fire-spotted cat.

Speaking of which, he had seen the opponent's final evolved form before - the Blazing Roaring Tiger, which was a humanoid muscular tiger.

Unexpectedly, the original form turned out to be such a small cat.

"Mewbi!"

Seeing a stranger suddenly staring straight at him with big eyes, the fire-spotted cat suddenly stopped and his eyes became wary.

"What a cute cat~!"

Xiaozhi subconsciously leaned forward and reached out to rub the other person's cat head.

"Don't do it, Teacher Xiaozhi!"

Mao exclaimed and wanted to stop it, but it was still a step too late.

Seeing that the stranger wanted to make a move, the fire-spotted cat immediately jumped back to distance itself, then opened its mouth and without any politeness, spit out a fireball the size of a football.

Basic fire attribute move, Spark!

Snapped!

Seemingly coming menacingly, Xiaozhi slapped the fireball with his backhand, and the fireball was shot away.

"A wary Pokémon?"

The palm of his hand was not very hot, but Xiaozhi also put away the idea of ​​​​contacting the latter directly.

Cats and dogs in Alola are really two extremes. The rock dog pounced on him and licked him wildly when he saw him, while the cat in front of him was cold and aloof.

"Meowbi!!"

Seeing that his proud spark trick was easily shot away, the fire-spotted cat suddenly narrowed its eyes and bared its teeth in a posture to continue attacking.

The next moment, it jumped up and sprayed three flames at Xiaozhi. It was a triple spark trick!

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

However, Xiaozhi still simply slapped it up, easily scattering three flames at the same time.

Mao: ""

After yesterday's Kentero incident, when she saw Ash scattering sparks with his bare hands today, her expression had no ups and downs.

It seems like it’s nothing great?

"Mewbi!"

Seeing that all his moves were easily broken, veins suddenly appeared on Huobanmao's forehead.

A pair of golden eyes stared closely at Xiaozhi, trying to remember this human's face firmly.

In the end, the fire-spotted cat did not choose to continue the attack. Instead, he twisted his body and jumped onto the shelf next to him. Then he jumped onto the wall and looked at Xiaozhi condescendingly.

For the first time, his own flame was slapped away by a human.

Hum, strange human being, you have aroused my interest!

Then wait for it to cultivate the flame temperature to a higher level, and then come and play with fire with you!

After taking one last glance at Xiaozhi, the fire-spotted cat climbed over the wall and disappeared.

"Well, is this deliberately targeting outsiders?"

On the same spot, Xiaozhi patted the remaining sparks on his palms with a puzzled expression.

Not only is he very vigilant, but he is also very aggressive in attacking.

"It's not aimed at you. This fire-spotted cat is a very famous stray cat in this small town~!"

Mao quickly explained with a dry smile:

"Except for humans who feed it regularly, it is possible to masturbate it. Otherwise, any human who tries to touch its body will be mercilessly attacked."

Although he is a stray cat, he has a very proud personality.

And speaking of which, it’s impossible for a normal person to do the trick of scattering sparks casually?

Does that mean that with a serious wave of the hand, you can disperse the jet flames? !

"I see."

Seeing that it was not aimed at him, Xiaozhi was relieved.

However, since the other party is a stray cat, it means that it is a wild Pokémon that no one has captured. It seems like a good opportunity!

The aloof and cold three starter Pokémon made Xiaozhi think of many of his former companions, and his love for this little black cat went up a level.

"Don't worry~ Litten often appears in this town and the beach area next to it. Although no one has found its home yet."

Mao smiled and said, noticing Xiaozhi's proud intention.

This is an alert cat with a strong observation ability. Any human who tries to track and find its nest will be mercilessly teased by it, and it will specially drill into narrow gaps and alleys.

When the tracker is tired and out of breath, it will even take the initiative to show up, jump to a high place, and put on a condescending and playful expression.

Xiaozhi nodded, and his personality is also very strange.

But listening to this description, it is more and more to his taste.

Speaking of appetite

Gulp!

Xiaozhi's stomach suddenly growled. The sandwich he had just had wasn't enough to fill his stomach.

Let's solve the problem of food and clothing first. There's no rush to capture Pokémon!

"Hehe~ We've arrived at our destination. This is Einar's Restaurant!"

Mao smiled and spread his hands, introducing the building in front.

Einar's Restaurant is divided into two parts. The front half facing the road is a single-story spacious cafeteria. From the street, through the glass, you can already see that there are many tables inside.

The back door of the restaurant is connected to a two-story house, which is also where Mao's family lives!
