Digimon Journey in the Spirit World

"The Pokémon here are the ones you will choose to be your partners next."

The two came to the doctor's laboratory. A small space was cleared out of the messy room. Three small and cute Pokémon stood obediently on the ground, looking at Xiaoguang who was also looking at them.

On the left is a round, oval-shaped bird Pokémon with two green leaves on its chest, forming a bow tie, which adds a touch of gentlemanliness to its cuteness. It is said that its head can rotate 180 degrees, and people who see it for the first time are startled.

The one in the middle is a mouse Pokémon with its hands in its pockets and eyes narrowed into slits. There are flames coming out of its blue back, which is very cute.

Standing on the right is a blue and white sea otter Pokémon with iconic freckle-like black spots under its eyes. Its oval brown nose twitches as if it is sensing Xiaoguang's scent. Its little hands touch the shell on its chest from time to time, as if it is trying to do something.

Looking at the three cute creatures with their own characteristics in front of me, I completely forgot that this is a different world. There were only twinkling stars in my eyes, and the smile on my lips gradually disappeared.

Xiaoguang: Is this a Pokémon? So cute!!!

Timberrow, Fireball, and Water Otter: This guy doesn't look very smart. Do we really want to fight with him?

"It seems like you like these little guys very much, that's great!"

It was also the first time that the doctor saw someone make such an expression towards a Pokémon.

After all, in the past, villagers’ first Pokémon was given by their elders, or they caught it in the wild themselves. This was the first time that he, a doctor, gave Pokémon to a newcomer.

These three Pokémon are also the initial three Pokémon in the Pokémon encyclopedia that the doctor is currently studying. It’s a good opportunity to give one to Xiaoguang to start his Pokémon encyclopedia collection journey!

"Um, Doctor! I want to know what they look like after they evolve, okay?"

Xiaoguang is not stupid. There are many creatures that look good when they are young but become weird when they grow up. Who knows if the three little ones in front of him will become strange in the future.

"Well... Hehe, I can't tell you. Between humans and Pokémon, what matters is the care and friendship between each other, not their appearance. I believe you will get along well with it."

The doctor touched the back of his head. He would not tell Xiaoguang the final forms of the three little ones. After all, the water otter was fine, but the final forms of Owlmouse and Incarnadine...

It's really hard to hold...

"Um……"

Xiaoguang lowered his body, looked at this and that, and kept weighing the scales in his heart that wanted everyone, but he just couldn't decide who he wanted.

"It's up to you!"

After much hesitation, Xiaoguang decided to select the water otter with the best performance and the most suitable for fighting!

"Water tower!"

"what!!"

Xiaoguang's outstretched finger scared the water otter, who immediately pulled out a shell from his chest and hit Xiaoguang with the finger!

Fortunately, the water otter restrained himself and did not use the sharp side. He just hit Xiaoguang once, but it still made Xiaoguang roll on the ground a few times in pain.

"Uh... this is the personality of a water otter. It will be fine once you get familiar with each other, hehe."

The doctor looked at the scene in front of him, raised his eyebrows, and an imperceptible joy flashed in his eyes.

God knows how many times Dr. Laben was chopped by water otters these days while studying the growth of the three great creatures.

Now seeing that someone was willing to take the little guy away and was chopped in front of him, the doctor felt a lot more balanced.

Doctor: Look! Look! It's not my problem. Anyone who comes here will be chopped off!

"It's okay, it's just too sudden for me.

Your name is Water Otter, right? I'm sorry I scared you just now."

Xiaoguang recovered, waved his hand at the doctor, and quickly took all the blame on himself, fearing that his attitude would make the other party misunderstand that he didn't like water otters. What would he do if he took it back?

Xiao Guang: My friend is so awesome! I can accept him no matter how bad he is! But I can't give it back to him!

Doctor: I have finally sent away such a ferocious water otter. I have to say a few nice words to it quickly, otherwise what should I do if it gets disgusted with me later? This little ancestor’s cuts are so painful!

The two of them had their own thoughts, but they happened to hit the mark accidentally.

"Water tower..."

The water otter also realized that his reaction was a bit too extreme. He put away the shell in shame and reached out to hold Xiaoguang's injured finger, as if to soothe the other's wound.

"It's okay, Water Otter, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt at all!"

Xiaoguang quickly stretched out the finger and let the water otter grab it. The smooth touch touched Xiaoguang's heart, and the uncertainty in his eyes finally had direction at this moment.

"Water Otter, will you be my partner?"

Xiaoguang sat down, trying his best to make his eyes parallel to the water otter, showing his kindness as much as possible.

"water……"

The water otter clenched the fingers in its hands, with some confusion and complexity in its eyes. It also hoped that someone would accompany it and care about it.

The water otter raised his head, and the young man immediately lowered his body, his eyes shining and the smile on his lips so pure.

"Water tower!"

It's decided! Although this person doesn't look very smart, the light in his eyes doesn't lie!

The water otter raised its head and leaned a little towards Xiaoguang.

"Hahahaha, that's great! It seems that the Water Otter likes you very much. Come on, pick up the Poké Ball and capture the Water Otter!"

The doctor looked at this scene, with tenderness in his eyes and a smile on his lips. People and Pokémon live in harmony and grow together. This is what he most wants to study and pursue.

Xiaoguang took the red and white standard beginner Poké Ball handed to him by the professor and gently touched the can-like switch on the otter's forehead.

"rub!!"

As the red light shone, the water otter turned into red light under Xiaoguang's gaze and was put into the Poké Ball. It fluttered in the air with smoke for a few times, and then "Ding Dong!" flashed and successfully captured the star!

"In the future...please give me more advice! Water Otter!"

Holding the Poké Ball tightly in his hand, Xiaoguang felt for the first time a sense of identity and belonging to this world!

Because here is his original companion! The water otter!

hum!

The Poké Ball also shook, responding to Xiaoguang!

"Wood!"

"Call the fire!"

Owlkey and Incarnadine also came over, happy that their good friend had found a partner to go on adventures with.

"Xiao Guang, the future of the water otter is in your hands. I hope you can treat it well."

"Don't worry, Doctor!"

"Then there is this, which is also one of my research. Your mission is to take the water otter to the Washicui Land, observe and record all Pokémon, and complete the collection of the Pokédex!"

The doctor handed Xiaoguang something that looked like a picture book. This was one of the high-tech things in the Xicui area.

"Oh! I get it, Doctor. Leave it to me!"

Xiaoguang took over the illustration and the mission at the same time. He understood his current identity. As one of the members, it was his duty to complete the mission!

"Okay, come out with me. I'll take you to the Obsidian Wilderness first and teach you some relevant knowledge. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if something goes wrong when you venture out in the wild."

The doctor fumbled around in the laboratory for a while, then carried a large sack on his back and led Xiaoguang towards the Obsidian Fields.

……

The adventure of our Xicui protagonist, Xiaoguang, has officially begun. The space-time rift in the sky has not changed yet. Where will the eyes observing in secret cast their gaze?

At the same time, in the south of the Obsidian Plain, in the huge battlefield of giant trees, there was a figure holding glasses, standing in the blowing hurricane. Next to the black shadow, there were two shorter figures lying, suspected to have fainted.

"Huh... System, we can't play like this. It's ok for you to do some small tricks normally, but this thing... makes a lot of noise!"

Looking at the huge figure in front of him, Bai Yi couldn't help sighing.

The figure in front of him was a mantis standing on two feet, with arms like two axes as deep as obsidian!

On his face, which resembles a Japanese samurai, he wears a three-pronged crown on his head, and his body has sharp, crystalline protrusions in many places, wrapping his body like armor, sharp, ferocious and mighty!

"Oh~ No matter how many times I see him, he's still this handsome!"

"Human...why did you enter my territory!?"

Those golden eyes were fixed on Bai Yi, and the axes in his arms were swinging in the breeze, carrying a murderous intent that could strike at any time.

"Hehe... I know what you're thinking. You saw a being similar to yourself, so you want to kill it and absorb its power to gain stronger strength? Let's fight first!"

Bai Yi showed no fear at all. His big white teeth reflected the sunlight and his eyes were cold!

"bright!!"

In an instant, golden light enveloped the entire royal arena. No one could see what was happening inside. Only the Pokémon passing by could clearly hear the roar that resounded through the clouds coming from inside, followed by the collision of the khaki giant axe and the flying feathers in the sky!

Intertwined, dyeing the sky with unique colors!
