Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

"Well, it's obvious that the fur has a very good color. It seems that you are cultivating it very seriously."

An Qing pressed the Litten on the bed, observed its fur and skin, and commented.

The flaming cat blinked its big eyes, looked at its limbs that were being held down, and lowered its head to think about whether it should resist.

Litten frowned.

The flaming cat gave up resisting.

Anyway, being stared at won't cost you a piece of meat. If you anger the trainer's mother, you might not even have dessert for dinner.

"Snapped!"

"But it looks like the fire energy is somewhat lacking. Did you let it learn too many skills too early?"

"Snapped!"

"Although I don't know what you want to train, I don't recommend letting Pokémon learn too many skills when they are young."

"Clap clap clap!"

An Qing couldn't ignore the suggestive voice and scratched her cheek awkwardly.

"Is the guy next door so fierce? It's not even night yet."

Ruan Yaoyao's face turned red when she heard the voice. She secretly glanced at Lin Yi, then quickly looked away.

As if she had thought of something terrible, the girl's neck turned red with shame. When she looked closely, she seemed to see white mist evaporating above her head. She was a steam queen.

Lin Yi listened carefully, with a strange expression on his face.

The noise doesn't sound like what's going on, and why does it feel like it's coming from downstairs?

"Love!"

At this time, the anxious and angry voice of Ai Guanshi floated over.

The three of them looked at each other, thought for a moment, then opened the door and looked into the living room on the first floor.

I saw a black thing jumping on the ground, and every jump it left a stain on the clean floor.

The butler held two mops and wiped away the dirt while chasing after him angrily.

Damn it! I haven’t even finished cleaning my room yet and you come over here to mess with me. I’ll beat you to death!

Seeing that his short legs couldn't keep up, the housekeeper, who had a severe obsession with cleanliness, simply threw away the mop, and used his innate superpowers to catch the "thing" and lifted it into the air.

"What is that? Yaoyao, your Pokémon?"

An Qing looked at Ruan Yaoyao with some confusion.

Ruan Yaoyao also seemed confused.

"No, my Pokémon is Scyther. Not this, this... uh, what is this?"

"It seems to be... Magikarp?"

An Qing watched as the butler angrily took a bucket of water and poured it on the Pokémon. He pinched his nose and used a brush to scrub its body clean in disgust, sounding very unconfident.

Lin Yi looked at the Magikarp with a frown, thinking that it looked very familiar.

When the butler had cleaned the Magikarp's back and turned it over to continue brushing, a protruding black scale appeared on its abdomen, and Lin Yi recognized it.

"The Magikarp in the back mountain?" Lin Yi exclaimed.

"Mumble?!"

Hearing Lin Yi's voice, Magikarp's originally quiet movements immediately became excited. For a moment, it actually broke free from the restraints of its superpowers and jumped towards the stairs.

Lin Yi hurried downstairs to catch it, looking at the excited Magikarp with mixed feelings.

If it weren’t for this Magikarp, he might have really died last night.

"Son, do you know it?" An Qing couldn't help but feel puzzled when she saw this scene.

"Yes."

Lin Yi briefly described how he met Magikarp, and at the same time stopped the butler who was rushing towards him aggressively.

"How did you find this place?" Lin Yi asked puzzledly, holding the Magikarp.

It doesn't matter if you don't mention it, but once you mention Magikarp, he starts to cry and snot. He looks so aggrieved that he seems like he will faint from crying in the next second.

The three of them couldn't help but remain silent after hearing this, because they didn't understand at all.

Feeling the gazes of the three people, Ai Guanshi sighed helplessly and turned into a ruthless translator to translate Magikarp's words.

It turns out that Magikarp entered Qinghai City through the dirty sewers, and felt all kinds of pain and sorrow along the way. He finally smelled Lin Yi's scent and found Lin Yi's home, but as soon as he entered, he was beaten up by the housekeeper with mysophobia.

So cold! So cold!

Do you have the guts to wait for me to evolve, then we can have a competition?

After translating this sentence, Attendant looked at Magikarp with increasingly dangerous eyes, wondering whether he should kill it now to prevent future troubles. After all, Gyarados was not someone to be trifled with.

Well, the chopped pepper fish head is pretty good. An Qing just came home, so I gave her some to try.

Feeling the full malice coming from behind, Magikarp shrank back into Lin Yi's arms in fear.

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched.

No, you just finished the sewer and you crawled on me? Even if you don't have mysophobia, it's still worrying!

"So what do you want from me?"

"Mutter!"

The carp king's eyes lit up, and he jumped from Lin Yi's arms to the ground and shouted with high morale.

"You want to be my Pokémon?"

Magikarp nodded.

Lin Yi hesitated. There was no place for Gyarados in the team he had prepared for himself, but he had come all the way here, and if he rejected him, would that be too cruel?

"This Magikarp has great talent," An Qing, who had been observing the Magikarp, suddenly said, "You can go and subdue it without any worries."

"Highly talented? How do you know?"

Lin Yi lowered his head and looked at the Magikarp. Apart from the fact that its eyes were particularly bright and not dull like those of other Magikarp, there was nothing special to note.

An Qing pointed at the black scales on the Magikarp's abdomen and asked, "Do you know what this is?"

"what?"

"Among all the known dragon and sub-dragon Pokémon, only a very small number of young ones have this special organ. These Pokémon all have extremely strong dragon bloodlines, and they will surely dominate the world after evolution. In our research field, we generally call this scale the reverse scale."

"Reverse scale..." Lin Yi repeated another unfamiliar term.

"This is the first time I've seen a reverse scale on a Magikarp. After this Magikarp evolves into a Gyarados, it will definitely be able to master the two rare dragon-type skills, Dragon Dance and Reverse Scale. You can also ask your father for advice on how to train a Gyarados. Of course, the choice depends on your wishes."

"You've already made my heart beat, how can I refuse?" Lin Yi half-jokingly checked Magikarp's message.

Pokémon: Magikarp

Sex: male

Attribute: water system

Level: 11

Features: Free to roam

"Ok?"

Lin Yi was a little surprised. Seeing Magikarp's aggrieved look, he thought Magikarp's characteristic was timidity.

Lin Yi took out an empty luxury ball and was about to subdue the Magikarp, but the Magikarp suddenly took a step back in resistance, and said that it would not be subdued unless Lin Yi fought it with real weapons.

"The little thing has quite a personality. But Litten just finished training, so now it's time for it to rest..."

Lin Yi looked at Ruan Yaoyao thoughtfully, "Yaoyao, can you help me?"

"sure."

Ruan Yaoyao thought Lin Yi was asking her to borrow Scyther, so she agreed readily.

From the perspective of ordinary people, there is nothing wrong with Lin Yi's behavior. But he is Lin Yi!

"Well then," Lin Yi waved his hand and shouted, "It's decided to be you, Yaoyao! Use the million-ton punch!"

"???"

All the people and Pokémon present asked a question at the same time.

"!"

A vein popped up on her forehead and Ruan Yaoyao clenched her fists in anger.

(*｀?3?)??

It's hard, the fist is hard.

Although she really wanted to punch Lin Yi in the face, Ruan Yaoyao couldn't bear it when facing Lin Yi's expectant and slightly excited eyes.

Otherwise, just help him this time?

Ruan Yaoyao, who had successfully convinced herself, poured all her resentment into her arm. She raised her small, thin pink fist slightly and took two steps at a time to hit the Magikarp.

Danger

The red word flashed above Magikarp's head, and it seemed to smell the breath of death.

Magikarp looked up and saw the fist cutting through the air, wrapped in a wave of air, falling towards it with unstoppable force like a comet hitting the earth.

You call this human?

Magikarp felt that he had never been so close to death. He vaguely recalled his life and saw the sacred shadow of Arceus, the god of creation, in a trance.

Generally speaking, we call this a revolving lantern.
