[Pokémon] Travel with Xiaomao

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Xiao Ye, and I am a newcomer trainer from the Hezhong area. Even so, I am already 14 years old this year." The purple-haired girl rubbed the back of her head, embarrassed smiled.

In the afternoon, the restaurant in the Pokémon Center was not as lively as it was at noon. There were only a few people sitting by the clear windows in twos and threes.

Due to the interruption of lunch and another inexplicable battle, Saya, whose stomach had already started to "cuckoo", decided to fill her stomach, and by the way invited her, the first person she met in the Kanto area, A friend had lunch.

"I'm Xiao Mao from Zhenxin Town, a Pokémon researcher, please take care of me." Xiao Mao said politely after taking a sip of the juice.

For some reason, although he had only known each other for less than an hour, his gentlemanly demeanor began to faintly show signs of failure.The Hezhong area is really an area worth exploring, maybe he can go for a walk if he has the chance... Speaking of which, didn't Xiaozhi just go to the Hezhong area a while ago?I don't know if he has caught any new Pokémon...

"Pokémon researcher, Mr. Xiaomao, you are really amazing!" Xiao Ye immediately became staring.

"Ah, it's nothing special. In terms of research, I'm just a novice." Xiaomao couldn't stand being stared at by that scorching gaze, and couldn't help shrinking his neck quietly.

"Then, Mr. Xiaomao's ultimate goal should be Dr. Pokémon."

"MA, I still have a long way to go..."

Seen by Xing Xing, Xiaomao was almost unable to hold on anymore, so he decisively changed the subject, "Well, Xiaoye, right? Congratulations on subduing the Shelling Ninja."

"Ah, yes, but, that child..."

As expected, the innocent Xiaoye immediately paid attention to the problem at hand.

Of course Xiaomao understood what she was worrying about, so he opened his mouth and said, "You are worried about the physical strength of the shelling ninja."

HP is 1, this kind of shocking words are really hard to say.

"Yeah." Xiaoye nodded frankly.

"But even so, you still haven't given up on it, have you?" Xiaomao's tone seemed to carry some deep meaning.

"I just... I just don't like Yusuke's attitude." Xiaoye pulled the corners of her mouth reluctantly, and lowered her eyes slightly, "Although I said so ostentatiously before, but in the end... I was beaten miserably Damn. I'm really too weak. The strength of a Pokémon is obviously closely related to the trainer itself, but I..."

"Your idea is not wrong." Xiaomao said.

Hearing the affirmation from others, Xiao Ye raised her head in surprise.However, in the next second, her self-confidence, which was not strong in the first place, withered away again.

"That Yusuke's statement, of course, can't be wrong." Xiaomao added lightly.

"..." Xiao Ye was discouraged again.

Seeing the other party's dissatisfied stares, Xiao Mao calmly said, "Don't worry, just listen to me."

"Just like people, there are all kinds of Pokémon. For example, I used to dream of becoming the world's number one Pokémon master. But later, in the constant travel, with the experience Increasingly, I gradually discovered that what I really love is studying Pokémon. Moreover, I gradually realized that I have more talent in research than trainers.”

Xiao Ye didn't seem to be completely convinced, she still lowered her head, and said timidly, "Mr. Xiaomao, are you going to tell me that there are differences between Pokémon who are good at fighting and those who are not good at fighting?"

The phrase "Mr. Xiaomao" is so awkward, a certain researcher sighed silently in his heart.

"Don't worry, I'm not trying to persuade you to give up cultivating a shelling ninja." He tried his best to make his expression less rigid, "On the contrary, I think your shelling ninja has great potential."

Xiao Ye almost thought that she heard it wrong, and asked uncertainly, "Mr. Xiaomao, you...you mean...?"

"As long as the cultivation method is proper, the Shelter Ninja is not necessarily weaker than other Pokémon. Of course, I admit that Yusuke's Iron Ninja is indeed very strong. If you want to defeat him, especially if you use the Shelter Ninja to defeat him, it is estimated It will take a lot of time." Xiaomao's words obviously admitted that he had overheard a certain stupid girl talking to herself.

It's a pity that this stupid girl didn't put her mind on that at all.

"But... But, the probability is not zero, right?" Xiao Ye stared at the other party hopefully.

Xiao Mao nodded slowly but surely.

"Haha, that's great. The Pokémon researcher is really extraordinary. As long as there is a chance, I will not give up. Thank you very much for your advice, Mr. Xiaomao."

Xiao Ye swallowed her share of cake in twos and twos, and paid the bill very carefully at the same time, then grabbed her backpack and was about to rush out, of course, as expected, she was stopped by Xiao Mao with black lines all over her head .

"Where are you going?" A certain researcher grabbed the purple-haired girl by the collar to prevent her from running around like a headless chicken.

"Special training." Xiao Ye blurted out without thinking.

"What is the special training for?"

"Beat Yusuke."

"..." Xiao Mao didn't pay attention, and almost let the idiot rabbit in his hand run away, "...With your current level, you can't even try to defeat Yusuke in 100 years!"

A certain brown-haired boy finally failed to withstand the sudden and huge impact, and the image of a handsome gentleman he had tried his best to maintain collapsed in an instant.

Sure enough, the world is so big, full of surprises, there are trainers on earth who are more idiotic than Xiaozhi, Mr. Mao has learned a lot.

"Listen well, it's not just the shelling ninja who wants to become stronger, but also yourself as a trainer." Xiao Mao explained patiently.

"I know, I didn't say I was going to be lazy." Xiao Ye continued to blink her big eyes, her brows full of innocence that people couldn't bear to blame.

Well, it's not good for me who misunderstood the meaning of a certain idiot.Xiao Mao continued to say with a livid face, "Then let me ask you, what kind of special training do you want?"

"Uh, this..." Xiao Ye hesitated for a long time, then suddenly smiled shyly, "I haven't figured it out yet."

"The easiest and most practical way to improve the level of a trainer is to fight Pokémon. This is common sense." Mr. Mao seems to have forgotten that he thought common sense was useless against a certain girl before.

"Ah, that's right." Xiao Ye showed a suddenly realized expression.

"Really, why did you come to Guandu from Hezhong?" Xiaomao was almost helpless.

"For travel."

"Isn't it cultivation?"

"...Yes, speaking of it, traveling is just a means, and cultivation is the ultimate goal. Mr. Xiaomao, look at my memory..."

"Don't call me Mr. Xiaomao!"

"?"

"Just call him Xiaomao." That kind of name really makes people irritable, especially when combined with that smirk face, it will give people the illusion that they are being played by the other party.

"Oh, um, Xiaomao..." Xiaoye whispered uneasily.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Mao was annoyed.

"Then, how can I become stronger?"

"Start with the gymnasium competition, the gymnasium competition! You don't even know the gymnasium competition!"

"I...I know. I...I heard Brother Larry say..."

"Ok?"

"Big... everyone... the masters of the gymnasium are very powerful..."

"Of course." Otherwise, he wouldn't pass the alliance review.

"It only takes one finger to push me down."

"Well?"

"If you haven't made sufficient preparations, don't rush to kick the gym."

"..."

"Otherwise, you will be beaten miserably."

Who the hell is this guy called Larry, who actually instilled such negative thoughts in Xiao Ye?

Xiaomao thought about it, and felt that it was not an option to continue to get angry, so his patience was picked up by him again.

"Although gym owners are very strong, their main duty is to examine the potential of the trainers, and they don't necessarily try their best to fight the challengers. As long as they believe that you meet their standards, the badge is not so difficult to get .”

"In other words, they will release water..."

"It's not called releasing water." Xiaomao barely stopped the car a second before breaking the power, and then put his hands on his chest pretending to be cool, "Of course, if you are strong enough, they won't take it seriously."

"Oh..." Xiao Ye nodded with a half understanding.

Finally, the communication was successful, Xiaomao, your hard work has finally paid off.Young Master Mao's heart shed tears of relief.

After sorting out his emotions, Xiao Mao said, "There is a Dry Leaf Gym in this Dry Leaf City, how about it, do you want to challenge it?"

"Of course." Xiaoye nodded.

"The Gymnasium battle at the Withered Leaf Gymnasium is three-on-three. Let me see what Pokémon you have on hand."

Without hesitation, Xiao Ye took out two baby balls and handed them to the opponent.

"...Is that all?" Xiaomao frowned. Although it was a bit small as expected, with four, it should be possible to construct a feasible tactic.

This temporary calm didn't last long, and the next moment, his anger began to rise again.

"Come out, Resentful Shadow Doll, Shelling Ninja."

It turns out that the total is two?You don't even have enough Pokémon to fight, so you want to kick the gym ambitiously?What a fool I was to have any hope for that child.Xiao Mao has completely ignored his own image, and now he just wants to cry bitterly.

"2...can't you?"

Another timid voice came from next to his ear, which made people want to reprimand him but couldn't speak.

Xiaomao sighed for the nth time today, "Of course, one is fine, as long as you can win."

"That's good." Xiao Ye didn't seem to realize what the problem was.

Xiao Mao didn't bother to point it out, "Ma Zhishi, the owner of the Dead Leaf Gymnasium, is a trainer of the electrical department. You can think about how to overcome it from this perspective. In addition, I can give you an additional suggestion."

Mr. Mao, who is facing the wind in Yushu, managed to suppress his irritability, and looked at the other party with a serious face, "If you use it as the core to organize tactics, it may achieve miraculous results. Of course, the final decision rests with you."
