Chapter 24: Meeting Ash Again
Dragging his tired body, Xia Yu came to the Pokémon Center in Withered Leaf City.
After handing over his Pokémon to Miss Joy, he returned to Sakuragi Research Institute when the treatment was complete.
Along the way, there were chaotic scenes everywhere.
Because of the explosion at the power plant, as Dr. Sakuragi said on the phone before, there was a widespread power outage near the Sakuragi Research Institute, and all of them were seriously affected by transportation, food, and work.
He even saw Miss Junsha, with a cutty dog, standing in the middle of the road directing traffic.
But fortunately, key buildings like the Sakuragi Research Institute and the Pokémon Center have their own backup power supplies, and they won't be shut down for the time being.
Seeing Dr. Sakuragi, Natsu briefly told him what had happened, and when he heard that he had met the lightning bird, Dr. Sakuragi stood up in surprise.
"You actually met the legendary Pokémon Lightning Bird!?"
Seeing Xia Yu nodded, Dr. Sakuragi quickly calmed down and continued: "It turns out that the research institute often has power outages, and it turns out that it is doing ghosts, but since there has been an explosion, I think that lightning bird will not appear again, as for the power room, I will call the power company and ask them to send someone to repair and replace the unit." ”
"Actually..."Xia You scratched his head, "I also subdued the lightning bird by the way." ”
"What!?" Dr. Sakuragi almost choked on his own saliva, and he coughed twice, his face shocked, "You took it in!?" ”
"Yes." Xia Yu took out the Poké Ball containing the Lightning Bird and shook it in front of Dr. Sakuragi's eyes to prove that what he said was true, "But in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, I also ask the Doctor to help me keep this matter a secret." ”
After taking a deep breath, Dr. Sakuragi adjusted his mind and nodded, he also knew that this matter was not suitable for publicity: "Don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut until you take the initiative to make it public." ”
At this time, Xia You asked tentatively: "Doctor, when the trainer carries more than six Pokémon, the newly accepted Pokémon will be teleported to the research institute, I don't know if there is any way to change this setting?" ”
Hearing Natsuyu's words, Dr. Sakuragi smiled, "What? Isn't six Pokémon enough for you to use? ”
"If it's a normal situation, it's naturally enough." Xia You said, motioning to Dr. Sakuragi to look at the Poke Ball in his hand, "But in this case, it is inconvenient to store it elsewhere, so you can only carry it with you, because it occupies an extra position, and it will still be very limited for normal battles." ”
Dr. Sakuragi suddenly realized, "You don't want to use the lightning bird as a regular battle Pokémon, do you?" ”
"That's right." Xia You explained, "For me, Chirulian and Miao Frog Grass are the open cards in their hands, and the legendary Pokémon of the lightning bird, because it is too eye-catching, is a kind of dark card, which is the so-called hole card. ”
"I see, I understand your thoughts, it's a solid idea." Dr. Sakuragi said, holding out his hand to Natsuyu, "Come, give me your Pokémon Illustrated Book." ”
Hand the Pokémon Illustrated Book to Dr. Sakuragi, only to see him connect the Pokédex to the computer, and after some operation, return it to Xia You,
"Okay, I've changed the permissions for you, and increased the upper limit of Poké Balls from 6 to 12, so that in addition to the regular six Poke Balls, even if you subdue any rare elves in the future, you don't have to worry about being suddenly teleported away."
In the afternoon, Sakuragi Park.
Xia Yu opened the Poké Ball and released the Lightning Bird.
Since it is not yet open to the public, he doesn't have to worry about anyone seeing the lightning bird and causing a riot.
The lightning bird flapped its wings and stared at Xia You condescendingly.
Xia You smiled: "Being defeated by a Pokémon that is weaker than yourself, and being outnumbered, I know you are very unconvinced, but it doesn't matter, as time goes by, I think you will soon accept me!" ”
The lightning bird raised its head, as if in disdain.
Regarding its attitude, Xia You didn't mind and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to pay attention to me, it's just that as my Pokémon, you have to be conscious, since your strength is so strong, come and be their sparring partner!" ”
After saying that, Xia You didn't care whether the lightning bird agreed or not, and shouted at his Pokémon: "Now, let's go up together, all attack!" ”
With a roar, a strong electric light suddenly shone in Sakuragi Park.
……
After a day's rest, Natsu Yu left the Sakuragi Research Institute with a backpack and a few Pokémon, and was about to move towards the next Gym City, when he suddenly heard someone shouting his name behind him.
When he looked back, it turned out to be Ash, Xiaoxia and Xiaogang!
Is it really the arrangement of fate, so that the three of them, really like in the anime, got together to travel together!
"You ended up in Withered Leaf City so quickly?" When they walked in front of them, Xia You smiled and said, "Next, are you going to challenge the Dead Leaf Gym?" ”
Ash rubbed his nose and smugly unzipped his coat, letting Xia You look at the three badges he hung on the inside.
"Gray badges, blue badges, and orange badges?" Xia You was surprised, "In just a few days, you actually got three badges?" That's amazing speed! ”
"It's nothing!" Ash laughed, "My goal is to become a Pokémon Master, and it's not difficult to get three badges." ”
"I can't stand you." On the side, Xiaoxia frowned, "That's not the badge we let you get because we kindly sympathized with you and let you go to the water." ”
Xiao Gang also agreed: "That is to say, it's better for people to keep a low profile." ”
Just bragged, and was revealed by two companions, Ash's face was a little embarrassed, but he still smiled and didn't take it to heart at all.
Xiaoxia came to Xia You with her hands behind her back at this time and greeted him.
But perhaps even she didn't notice it herself, her tone was a little less willful than usual, a little more shy and excited.
Xia You smiled brightly and said, "I haven't seen you for two days, Xiaoxia, you seem to be more beautiful than before." ”
On the side, Xiao Gang also stretched out his right hand to Xia You.
"I haven't officially introduced myself yet, my name is Xiao Gang, since a few days ago, I quit my job as the owner of the gym, and traveled with Xiao Zhi and Xiao Xia, and now, I am working hard to become a Pokémon breeder."
"It's a good ambition, but I think becoming a Pokémon doctor is also a good choice." Xia You shook his hand, then changed his voice and asked, "But forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, Xiaogang, are you really only fifteen years old?" Why do you look older than me? ”
