Pokémon Beyond the Blue

Zhenghui has been debugging in front of the machine for a long time. Various combinations of numbers and tables are constantly flashing on the big screen, which looks extremely complicated.

Although Ikki couldn't quite understand it, he could still understand the power of Zhenghui.It would take the average person many years to master something as complex as this... But Zhenghui is so young, it's really scary...

But Zhenghui just left Ikki and the others aside.To be honest, it's really boring.

Surrounded by incomprehensible test equipment and incomprehensible labels, the sound of bubbles produced when the drug reacts has become the main theme in the laboratory.

"If I had known it would be so troublesome, I would have gone shopping with Nazi. It might have been more interesting..."

Kirulian held the super ball in her hand and looked at Ikki, who was holding a illustrated book on Riolu's "conversation", and said about money with some dissatisfaction: "Can't I listen to what you are talking about? ?It’s so boring to be doing nothing like this all the time!”

Riolu and Ikki, who were criticized, turned their heads at the same time. Seeing Kirulian fuming, they had no choice but to move in front of her.

"Olu... [We are just discussing the Super Ball. After all, it is me who is going in, not you. This is very important!]" Riolu pointed to the Super Ball in her hand and tried to soften her tone. said.

Kirulian put the super ball into Ikki's hand and stretched lazily, looking like he wasn't well rested.

"Then you continue to study, I will take a rest first. I have never used my abilities so frequently..."

Before she finished speaking, Kirulian fell into sleep, making Riolu and Ikki think she had used the [Sleep] skill.

Since Chirulian stopped paying attention to them, Riolu picked up the illustrated book again and started typing.

[This is my first time. For your own benefit and mine, you must fully assist me.If you fail, don’t lie! 】

Ikki nodded very vigorously, as if to show his credibility and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely keep my promise. Before defeating you, I will not conquer you through other means." He said and handed over his hand. He reached up and touched his head.

"Okay, now is not the time for joking!" Gently pushing his hand away, Riolu sat down against Chirulian, closing his eyes and brewing his emotions.

There are no wild elves around here, Riolu has already investigated them.

Perhaps due to the existence of the giant elves, this place has suddenly become a "danger zone"?No, if that's the case, why don't Riolu, Kirulian, Ikki and Natsu's elves react at all?He couldn't tell clearly.

After a long and hard struggle, Zhenghui finally hit the Enter key hard as a signal to start, and stood up from the stool with a smile on his face.

"Okay, all the instruments are in normal condition and the experiment can start at any time!"

Ikki threw the super ball to Zhenghui and attached it to various electrodes and data wires. He picked up Riolu and came to him, waiting for Zhenghui to finish the final work.

"Well, let's get started!" Zhenghui checked all the equipment one last time, and after confirming that everything was running normally, he took two steps back to leave enough space for Ikki and Riolu.

Ikki followed Masaki's request and picked up the super ball connected to more than a dozen wires. He swallowed silently and put Riolu on the ground. He took another deep breath before confirming to Riolu: "Get ready." Are you ready?"

The answer is, of course, you can start at any time.Riolu is actually very curious about what kind of technological product the so-called Poké Ball is, and he doesn't understand the conditions inside it at all. But if he is just asked to give it a try, he will definitely refuse without hesitation, but Zhenghui is different. , he has enough things to attract Riolu, so in the final analysis, it is just an equal exchange in which both parties took great risks.

He looked at Ikki and nodded.

"Then, I'll start!" Ikki became nervous at first.This is the first time he has thrown a Pokémon ball. Previously, Riolu either did it for him or did not need to throw it out at all, so this is also the first time he has used a trainer's true method to conquer the Pokémon, although it will definitely fail.

Ikki immediately closed his eyes, flicked his right hand back, and threw the super ball towards Riolu five meters away with all his strength.

"Bump!" "Oulu!!!"

Riolu didn't expect that this kid would be so nervous. He would use so much force just to throw a ball, and it would hit his head directly. The sound made Zhenghui even began to worry whether the super ball would break. .

Riolu used his claws to hold down the place where he had just been hit. A small bump seemed to have swelled there, and even a large area of ​​the surrounding fluff was suppressed.

, tears almost burst out.

Like all Poké Balls, the Super Ball opened to both sides when it was bounced off Riolu's head, and then red light began to appear around Riolu's body.

'Is this what it feels like to enter a Poké Ball?very strange……'

Apart from the pain, Riolu just felt a suction, and then his eyes quickly rotated as if he had experienced [teleportation], but there was no dizziness.Two seconds later, Riolu found himself in an unknown steel space - this was obviously the inside of the Poké Ball.

'The light is still very bright...probably because of the use of projection technology...'

Looking up, Riolu found that he could actually see outside. Although it was not clear and the sound was a little blurry, he could definitely tell: Masaki and Ikki were currently surrounding the super ball and watching the game. down development.

'It's almost time to go out...it seems...to have a sense of resistance...'

Sure enough, before he knew it, Riolu began to feel dependent on this place, but he was quickly given up.

The Poké Ball can only subdue elves that have been weakened to the point that they cannot resist or are willing to be subdued. For elves in a full state like Riolu, the success rate is basically zero.Of course, if you don’t count the physical damage Ikki forcibly caused just now...

Ikki clenched his hands, watching the super ball on the ground flickering and the indicator light flashing red, and cold sweat kept flowing down his face.

Suddenly, the super ball opened again, and the same red light shot out. Two seconds later, Riolu reappeared in front of Ikki.

"Huh~ That's great..." Ikki exhaled a breath and looked happily at Riolu who smiled at him.It was as if it was not Riolu but him who had just undergone the experiment.

Zhenghui ran to the computer to type on the keyboard at the same time as Riolu came out. Before getting too obsessed with analyzing the data, it was better to let Ikki and the others make their own arrangements...

Masaki issued an eviction order, and Ikki shrugged in frustration, walked to the experimental table where he and Riolu discussed before the experiment started, picked up Kirulian who was still sleeping, and took the elevator quietly.

"In the end, I still failed to get Mr. Zhenghui to explain..."

In the passage leading to Natsu and Kirulian's room, Ikki felt a little disappointed and said to Riolu, who used the power of the stone to turn golden.

"It doesn't matter. It's not too late to mention this matter after he's done with his work." Riolu put his paws into his backpack, took out the super ball just now and waved it in front of Ikki, "And after harvesting this, you It should be easier to conquer the next elf!"

Ikki pouted indifferently and moved Kirulian into a more comfortable position.

Riolu was right, the Super Ball had been researched, and it would definitely be more efficient than the ordinary Poké Ball, but Ikki was also very curious, and this kind of opportunity was not something that could just be waited for.

So he asked: "Riolu, what did you see there just now? Can you tell me?"

"Huh? Why do you want to know this..." Riolu heard Ikki's question as he put the ball back into his bag.

"I'm just curious. Look, you can talk again. This is a good opportunity for me to understand the function of the Poké Ball!" Ikki's eyes began to shine with little stars.

"You want to know?"

"Yeah! I really want to!"

"I won't tell you! Otherwise you'll always be thinking about conquering me!"

Riolu originally thought that Ikki might be depressed for a while, but he didn't expect that he actually smiled, and the smile made Riolu feel chilled.

"Hmph, since you don't want to, then I have no choice but to take this move!" Ikki freed up a hand, took out a feather from the side of the backpack behind him, and looked at the person who had started to tremble with evil intentions. Riolu said, "Are you still willing to say it now?"

Ikki originally just wanted to make a joke, but he didn't expect that the feather he was holding in his hand a second ago disappeared in an instant, taking Riolu with him.

"Don't think that I will fall into the trap a third time. Since you are going to use such despicable means, it is even more impossible for me to tell you!"

Riolu held the feather and stood ten meters away from Ikki. After he finished speaking, he turned around and ran away, without spending a second.Ikki had no choice but to catch up with Kirulian in his arms.

"Damn it, give me back my feathers!"

Riolu, who was running in front, raised the corner of his mouth and said to himself: "As expected, you still need to relax before such a large competition..."
