Pokémon: The Journey of Bonds

However, Wu Yao suddenly thought of something. Although he had narrowed down the target, he had no way to trap the monster and could only follow the clues.

At this time, the greedy squirrel on the tree was passing by with a bunch of fruit in his arms. His cheek pouches were also filled with fruit. Wu Yao saw a Pokémon that rarely appeared and asked him: "Do you know about the monsters nearby? I'll give you some energy cubes."

"I have seen it. I saw the big monster passing by in the tree hole that night, but luckily it didn't notice me. However, the monster has many horns on its head, and its eyes glow at night."

"Thank you."

The greedy chinchilla took some water energy blocks given by Wu Yao and ran away happily.

"I think I know who the murderer is."

"Who is it? Loto."

"There is only one truth! The murderer is Nidoking!"

"But Boskodora also has horns, Lotho."

"Do you remember what was in that pile you saw?"

"All kinds of tree fruits, and poisonous energy."

"The fruit can prove everything. Boskodora likes to eat rocks and steel, not fruit."

"Then the next step is to find where Nidoking is, Lotor."

Wu Yao then began to search, but many Pokémon in the forest had escaped and he could not find any clues. Seeing that it was getting dark, Wu Yao could only set up camp temporarily. He planned to spend the night in the forest. Although the fossil pterosaur could take Wu Yao home directly, Wu Yao was afraid that Nidoking would pass by at night, and he planned to cook, perhaps the smell could attract Nidoking.

Wu Yao's cooking skills can only be described as very bad. Wu Yao originally wanted to make a hodgepodge by making a pot of porridge with various tree fruits, but Wu Yao ended up putting all kinds of sweet, sour, bitter and spicy fruits into the pot. After tasting it, he found that the porridge was simply poisonous, sour, sweet, bitter and spicy. Wu Yao's face was almost twisted into a knot. He quickly spit out the porridge in his mouth and rinsed his mouth desperately.

"It's okay, poison-type Pokémon will definitely like it." Wu Yao comforted himself, and took out some bread to eat, and also prepared a meal for his Pokémon.

On the way, Kodara seemed to smell something and put down the rock and steel energy blocks and dug them on the ground. Wu Yao was watching other Pokémon and didn't notice Kodara. When Kodara dug out the stone, he smelled it and felt that the stone was not as good as his own energy blocks, so he threw the stone aside and went back to eat the rock and steel energy blocks.

After a while, there was indeed a rustling sound in the bushes. Wu Yao instantly became alert and released Greninja to prepare for battle.

Suddenly, Nidorino jumped out from the bushes and rushed straight to the pot of porridge cooked by Wu Yao, but was knocked to the ground by Greninja's Flying Water Shuriken.

"Kind human, please forgive my sudden attack that offended you. Can I have some porridge you cooked?" Nidorino asked weakly, dragging his scarred body. It was obvious that these scars were not all caused by the flying water shuriken.

Wu Yao was so happy that the Pokémon really loved the porridge he made.

Wu Yao took out a special Pokémon rice bowl and filled a large bowl of porridge for Nidorino. This rice bowl was prepared for Pokémon like Koala that had to lie on the ground and couldn't free their hands to eat, so it was just right for Nidorino.

"Eat whatever you want, and I'll make it after you're done."

Nidorino ate three large bowls before stopping and patted his stomach in satisfaction.

"Human, you're really good at making poisonous food!"

Wu Yao was very upset. He didn't make poisonous food.

"By the way, why are you injured like this?" Wu Yao changed the subject.

"It's all because of that Nidoking. He and I were brothers born at the same time. We lived in harmony in the big family of Nidoran and Nidoron. But after we evolved into Nidolino, my brother started to change his mind. He started to bully Nidoran and even forcibly combined with Nidoran who didn't like him. I wanted to stop him, but he found a Moonstone from somewhere and evolved himself. After becoming Nidoking, his personality became even more violent. He forced Nidoran to have children with him more and more often. He also injured many Nidorans and expelled me. Recently, he even committed the evil act of robbing other Pokémon. Human, can you help me find the Moonstone?"

"No need to bother. I'll go and destroy that Nidoking and give you a peaceful life. Where is Nidoking now?"

"In the cave to the west."

"Thank you. Please inform the other expelled Nidoran that they can go back."

After saying that, Wu Yao called the fossil pterosaur and flew to the cave in the west, leaving the camp behind.

Seeing Wu Yao leaving, Nidorino revealed a ferocious expression, which was completely different from the pitiful look just now.

"Damn humans, damn Nidoran, damn Nidorina! Nidoran and I have been at odds since we were little, and we often fought. Once, after a fight, he evolved directly into Nidorino, and I could only evolve following his tail gas. He laughed at me for a long time! We each enjoyed a batch of Nidoran and bullied a group of Nidoran separately, but in the end, there was a powerful individual among the Nidorans who gave up his fertility to evolve to stop us and protect the other Nidorans and Nidorans. We can no longer enjoy them properly or bully the Nidorans!"

"We had agreed to gather at a time to secretly search for the Moon Stone. Whoever won the fair competition would evolve. But he actually dared to secretly search for the Moon Stone and evolve himself. Then he imprisoned all my Nidoran and Nidorans, and even the sterile Nidorina. I was so pissed off! Why don't I have a Moon Stone? That damn human didn't even accompany me to find the Moon Stone!"

When Nidorino was about to leave, he suddenly found the stone that Kodara had dug out and thrown away.

"What a powerful Moon Stone! This aura is a C-rank Moon Stone! It can help me evolve and learn some great moves!"

After saying that, Nidorino touched the Moon Stone with both hands. He grew bigger, his limbs became stronger, his eyes became fierce, and his originally short tail became stronger.

"Hahaha! I've evolved! I feel like I have even greater power now!"

The claws on his hands condensed poisonous energy, and a casual grab could cause a tree to wither.

"This is... Poison Attack! Great! That guy didn't learn Poison Attack at all. He only has poison needles. I'm much better than him! Now I should be the overlord of this forest!"

After saying that, Nidoking took advantage of the night to attack the remaining Pokémon. The greedy Chinchilla that Wu Yao had encountered before was eaten by him along with the Pokémon and the fruit in the cave.
