Attributes: Empty all the way to translate, rolling up a large puff of dust.

"Oooo

"Silver Companion War Beast!"

Gragio shouted sharply, causing Attribute: Sora to struggle desperately.

"Wow!"

It finally stood up.

It is an artificial Pokémon with a certain strength at the beginning of its birth, and its attributes: Sora is more affectionate than it, and it trusts the call from the trainer more.

But if it spends its days thinking "who am I", "where am I", "what am I going to do".

It is estimated that it is also difficult to be honest and obedient.

Seeing the attributes: The empty Kashiwagi raised his eyebrows, but he was actually not too surprised by its frankness.

After all, he is known as Little Arceus, and his attributes: Empty and its Silver Companion War Beast that doesn't know if it counts as evolutionary or not, each of them is only five points worse than the Phantom Pokémon of the Six-Dimensional Universal, one hundred.

Naturally, there is a certain degree of meatiness.

But if you want to say how meaty it is, it may not be, it's just a bucket waist.

Each race is one hundred and two, and Arceus, who has a total of seven hundred and two, is worthy of being called [Almighty].

And the present.

Attributes: Although the air is full of sharp stone attacks, but the state is actually not so bad, and give it a little respite, this guy may be able to give full play to its true strength and fight for a few rounds.

If the shackles are not broken in advance, Gragio can also learn something from them-

It's a pity that Kashiwagi doesn't have this bad habit.

In his opinion, unless the midfield evolves, it is meaningless to need the opponent to give the opportunity to show the strength.

Kashiwagi: "Lean in!" ”

Reggie Lock's very obedient "Knock Knock" rushed towards Attribute: Sora.

"Buzz!"

The buzz shook the sky.

The curse weakens its speed, and its own speed is not fast, so it takes a little time to approach Attribute:Null.

Gragio saw Reggielock's slightly sluggish movements and thought it was a good opportunity to shout, "Tear Claw!" ”

He intends to use Attribute: Empty Agility to maneuver around Reggie Lock's close-quarters.

But he didn't want to be an attribute: the sky showed a pair of claws covered in red light, enough to shatter the boulder, and Reggie Rock took the initiative to meet it without dodging or dodging.

"Electromagnetic waves."

Attribute: The moment the empty tearing claw grabbed Reggielock, Reggie Lock's body erupted with a strong blue current, and along the attribute: Empty claw entangled its body!

——!!

Boom!

The sound of electricity rang out at the same time as the claws cracking stones.

Gragio's face was full of surprise, panic.

[Electromagnetic waves]!?

Reggie Rock is a Pokémon with a single rock attribute!

It's so lewd...... Partial moves!

Kashiwagi: "Arm hammer." ”

"Buzz buzz! Ji! Yikes! ”

Reggielock's voice was like a loud prayer, the H-shaped dots lit up in unison, and the stone pillars of the two arms that glowed red smashed into the attribute: the empty waist like a big pendulum!

Boom!

The air exploded into a translucent wave of air!

The latter wanted to dodge, but the [paralyzed] state made it impossible to dodge.

"Whoa—"

Attributes: The empty wail was smashed into the sand by a heavy stone arm like a hammer, and countless white sand rose into the sky, covering the vision of both sides like a curtain.

The dust in the air made Gragio breathless.

He knew that the [Arm Hammer] with outstanding effect had completely destroyed the attribute: the power of the empty refight.

White sand landing.

Attributes: Sora faints in the center of a small bunker.

“……”

Gragio opened his mouth.

He suddenly realized why Kashiwagi took the initiative to let Reggie Rock get closer.

As he considered for himself, the advantage of Attribute: Empty is that it is more flexible. If Kashiwagi used [Sharp Stone Attack] again, he would definitely not be stunned and continue to let the attribute: empty move block, it must be to let it find a way to dodge.

Therefore, Kashiwagi decisively approached and took the initiative to take the beating to the attribute: hanging on the abnormal state that restricted his movements, and took the opportunity to end it with a hammer.

The logic of the battle was so simple that he could think of it casually.

Helplessness is an afterthought.

I didn't expect it when I was fighting, and no matter how much I thought about it, it was meaningless.

Another horror to Gragio was that he found that his habits and battle logic had been eaten up by Kashiwagi.

On the other hand, Kashiwagi's habits and battle logic, he has only mastered a little bit of the surface.

The gap is too big......

The second middle school boy retracted his attributes in despair: empty, even had no taste for breakfast, and even forgot his thank-you etiquette before leaving.

You know, Gragio has always done a good job with etiquette.

What's wrong with this?

Kashiwagi was very curious about this young man's mental state, and it stands to reason that he should get used to it after five days.

But he didn't pay much attention to it, Gragio's self-regulation was good, and he didn't need to be interfered with by outsiders.

——

Tree hollow dressed as a bear.

Kashiwagi came to inquire about the progress of the Z Pure Crystal Detector.

He felt it was almost time for him to head to the next big test on the island of Akara next door.

However.

"They haven't been back for two days, and you haven't found them either?"

Kashiwagi stares at the expressionless bear, with a doll bear on his head that he doesn't know why he always likes to occupy the highlands.

"Gooo

The bear-clad bear nodded slightly, worry and anger brewing in his dark eyes.

Team Rocket is gone?

What's the situation?

Not!

I was hired by Zaobo to do odd jobs in Aetherland!

Kashiwagi understands the whereabouts of Team Rocket in connection with the events that have happened these days - but he also feels a little uncomfortable, he paid a lot of money on the probe!

Kojiro, you're not dedicated!

Angry is angry, Kashiwagi didn't plan to fight them with a little report wearing a bear, and there is still a place to use Team Rocket.

In two days, they will be back themselves.

I couldn't talk to Zaobo, who likes to hypnotize and tamper with people's memories, so he threw his hat in anger and unilaterally fired the boss.

It's barely the highlight of Team Rockets.

At noon, I had a primitive meal with tree fruit and three honey with the mother and son dressed in bears.

Kashiwagi said goodbye to the bear-wearing mother and son who went to find Team Rocket, and boarded the ferry to Akara Island in Haoola City, ready to go over to see what was going on.

As for the detector...... In the future, it will be used to check and fill in the gaps.

"Active Volcano......

He stood on the deck of the ferry, looking out at the towering volcano that was constantly smoking, and even magma flowed from it, wondering if it would be like the end of Pompeii if it erupted.

Probably not.

The real volcano doesn't have an island guardian to help suppress it.

After a few minutes.

Ferries dock in the city of Kangzhi.

The distribution and pattern of buildings are similar to those of Haoaole City, and it has a tropical southern atmosphere.

But in just ten minutes from the time he got off the boat, Kashiwagi had already seen four or five Pokémon battles on the side of the road...... Although it's basically rookies pecking each other.

The atmosphere of the battle is so strong!

Has it ever appeared in the anime?

I don't think so.

Kashiwagi remembers that the animation has always used the island of Milo as the main stage, and the other islands have only been given the role of unit dramas.

Even Mao and Shuilian, who originally lived on the island of Akara, were forcibly changed to people from Mera Melo, as did Mamane on the island of Ula Ula next door, but Kachi remained the same.

He searched the city, crossed the list of travel agency recommendations, and saw its city introduction.

[Built by trainers who traveled to Kanto and Johto a long time ago, Kangzhi City is the gateway to Akara Island, and will warmly welcome everyone's visits]

I see.

Kashiwagi suddenly felt that Gragio should come here for special training-

The idea was interrupted by an Aether Foundation promotional sign on the side of the road, on which the white-clad clerk who rescued the wild Pokémon smiled warmly.

"Alas......"

He smiled helplessly, the rebellious and strong middle school second teenager did not want to operate in the city with his own company, and it was very standard for the rich second generation psychology who had a bad relationship with his family.

The young man is full of stereotypes.

But.

When this episode is over, Gragio should no longer be reluctant to come to the market.

It's no wonder that he disappeared in the middle of the plot, and it wasn't until Necrozma chased Lunayara and Solgaleo to Alola that the young man resurfaced.

Kashiwagi finds a passer-by who is reading a newspaper and asks for the address of the handicraft shop of the Queen of the Islands, Lizzy.

The passer-by looked him up and down, and suddenly said, "Are you looking for Miss Lizzy, the queen of the island?" You're a Challenger to the Islands, aren't you? ”

“…… Right. ”

"It's okay to tell you, let's fight!"

The passer-by uncle stepped back abruptly and pulled away a distance, thinking that he lifted the corner of his clothes to reveal the Poke Ball on his waist, "Let me see what you can do!" ”

Kashiwagi had a "I knew you would be like this" expression on his face, and silently took out the Poké Ball.

No way.

You sent it yourself.

Two minutes later.

“happy~！！”

The happy egg let out a loud cry, and with his left foot as the support, he turned three and a half times and threw away the nonsense tree of the passer-by uncle!

"Whoosh-"

The nonsense tree flew away like a lead ball, and its cry was like a homonym for the phrase "true or false".

The passer-by uncle was stunned at first, and then hurriedly chased after his Pokémon flying away, shouting: "Wait for me!" Wait for me, nonsense tree! ”

Fortunately, the strength of the happy egg is not enough to turn the tree into a shooting star.

So it just fell into a patch of grass in the distance, but it also completely lost its ability to fight.

The passerby uncle returned in frustration.

He said, "Young man, you're so strong...... Well, you wait for me. ”

Kashiwagi and Happy Egg glanced at each other and nodded.

Soon after.

The passer-by uncle drove a two-box truck with a sudden noise, honked the horn and greeted: "Get in the car!" ”

"Are you going to send me there?"

Kashiwagi opened the door to the back seat.

The passer-by uncle said with a look of course: "Nonsense! Where is Miss Lizzie so easy to find, she occasionally goes to her craft shop, occasionally on Mount Vila, how long do you walk on your feet? I see that you have eyes, so I'm sending you away! ”

Reasonable!

"Thank you, Uncle La!"

He shoved the happy egg's buttocks, pushed the little short leg inside, and sat on it himself.

The pickup truck suddenly headed south.

Small talk.

The passer-by uncle, who calls himself Atong, lives in the city of Konico, south of the island of Akara, and runs a shop selling agricultural products.

Can Neco City?

Isn't this the original address of Shuilian and Mao?

Remember that it was designed as a Chinatown, and there are many buildings full of Chinese elements, which is in stark contrast to the Japanese-style Malier Quiet City on the island of Ula Ula next door.

"Look! That's the city of Corico! ”

Uncle Atong pointed into the distance.

Kashiwagi and Happy Egg huddle together, looking forward through the front windshield.

A large archway with two Hark dragons coiled with golden tiles and red pillars came into view.

“……”

He looked at the familiar and unfamiliar buildings, and then looked at the carved beams and painted palaces and pavilions behind him, and the memories that had long been subsided in his mind kept coming back.

Chinatown...... Chinatown!

His heart unconsciously filled with a special emotion, surging back and forth.

“happy？”

The emotionally sensitive Happy Egg was the first to notice the trainer's abnormality, but it didn't taste pure negative emotions.

Under the cloak of gloom, regret and melancholy, there is nostalgia and pleasure.

It's too complicated.

Let the happy egg not know what to do.

And Uncle Atong saw that Kashiwagi was stunned and didn't speak, so he laughed and said, "How is it?" It's spectacular! This style of architecture is rare to see all over the world! It was built a long, long time ago by a group of outsiders! ”

"Outsiders? Uncle, do you know where they came from? ”

Kashiwagi suppressed the emotions in his heart.

This is not the first time that Chinese elements have appeared in the Pokémon world, and he also patronized a Chinese restaurant called Lailai Laixuan in Hoenn before.

But as far as he knows, there is no region in the world that is modeled after China.

At best, there is only a place designed with a certain location.

Ancient civilizations?

A traverser from Earth like him?

Kashiwagi felt a little bit of "belonging" in his heart.

"I don't know, it was a long, long time ago." Uncle Atong's response was unexpected.

But he was inevitably disappointed.

The truck drove into the torii and stopped in front of a small two-story building.

Uncle Atong said: "This is it, you go in and ask, I will wait for you here." ”

"Okay!"

Hearing this, the cypress got out of the car, and the happy egg hurriedly followed, but the action of getting out of the car was slightly funny, and the whole body turned around, and used its short feet to reach the ground.

It didn't reach it for a long time, and it cried out anxiously.

“happy~”

When Kashiwagi turned his head and saw it like this, he was immediately speechless, and the emotions that had been brewing were swept away.

"Isn't it good for you to jump?"

He grabbed the big pink egg and lowered it to the ground.

Happy Egg is a little shy, rubbing his little hands back and forth, "Happy ......"

"Stupid."

Cypress patted its head.

I haven't been in a car much before.

Uncle Atong lit a cigarette and smiled silently when he saw this scene, if it wasn't for a long time after losing to it, who would have believed that this happy egg who couldn't even get out of the car was so powerful?

One person and one egg walked into the handicraft shop.

"Welcome!"

The shopping guide immediately greeted him and said with a smile: "Please feel free to choose!" ”

Kashiwagi glanced around, but didn't find Lizi's figure, so he asked bluntly, "Hello, I'm a challenger for the islands tour......"

"Challenger? Okay, please wait. The shopping guide did not change his face because he was not here to buy something, and still walked to the front desk very kindly to make a call.

Kashiwagi shifts his gaze and discovers that Happy Egg has been looking at a pendant.

"Want?"

“happy~”

Happy Egg shook his head and motioned for the trainer to take a closer look.

Only then did he discover that the pendant was made from the horns that had fallen off the sun coral.

Horn ...... of sun coral

Well?

Kashiwagi showed a malicious expression, he picked up the pendant and said to the returning shopping guide, "Please help me wrap this." ”

"Ah, okay." The shopping guide nodded, took the pendant and said, "The island queen you are looking for, Miss Lizzy, is on Mount Vera." ”

Kashiwagi nodded: "I see, thank you." ”
