After a night's journey, Zhulan and the round land shark finally arrived in the town of Sand and China.

Manasago Town is a small town in the Sinnoh region, just south of the town is Sandy Land, the starting point of Manasa Beach. As a place for novice trainers in the Sinnoh region to pick up their first elves, Dr. Yamanashi's research institute is also located here.

"Hmm..."Zhulan tilted her head, and the dark blue hairpin on her head shook slightly. Where is Dr. Yamanashi's research institute?"

The round land shark sucked its head. "Whew..."⊙_⊙‖∣°

"This is—" Zhulan flipped through the black bag in her hand and pulled out a map from it. Map of the town of Masago? When did Grandma put it in? ”

The map in Zhulan's hand has a detailed description of the locations of various locations in the town of Sago.

All the way to a restaurant, and now that it is close to noon, Zhulan decides to go to eat first and then go to the Yamanashi Research Institute.

"Isn't Dr. Yamanashi's research institute in Masago Town? Then we can go and get the initial elf. ”

"Have you decided which Pokémon to pick? The initial Pokémon I decided to pick was the Grass Seedling Turtle~"

"Isn't there a beach in Masa? You can also go there to relax when the time comes. ”

The restaurant was noisy and full of passers-by. But the objects of discussion are none other than Dr. Yamanashi, the Yamanashi Research Institute, and Masago Beach.

The land shark scratched its head. "It seems that Dr. Yamanashi has a high reputation in Masago Town." But it's normal to think about it, as an elf doctor in the Sinnoh region, Dr. Yamanashi is very knowledgeable, and he is a respectable elf doctor, and it is normal for him to be famous.

As soon as Zhulan entered the restaurant, she was warmly welcomed.

"Hello, please come in!" The waitress lady was wearing a black uniform and a red tie around her neck, flashed to the side to make way for Zhulan.

Zhulan bowed slightly, and the round land shark in her arms shook her little short hand, and said hello to the friendly waitress and waiter.

The waiter was slightly stunned, and then reacted immediately, making a gesture of please. "Please follow me."

…

"Hmm..." Zhulan frowned, holding the menu, sitting on a wooden chair, holding her chin a little tangled. What should I eat?"

The round land shark seemed to have a big question mark on its head and touched its head. "You can eat whatever you want, do you want to take so long?"

Wait a minute...! I actually forgot about this, Sister Zhulan seems to be a patient with difficulty in choosing!

While Zhulan was reading the menu, an old man with an extraordinary temperament walked into the restaurant. The old man had gray hair, a mustache, a brown trench coat, a blue velvet waistcoat, a tie, and a briefcase. When he saw this old man, the waiter immediately greeted him, and his tone was respectful with a hint of flattery. "Dr. Yamanashi, why are you here? Please sit down, please take a seat! ”

At this time, even the owner of the restaurant personally came out to greet the old man. In this regard, the old man just nodded, bowed slightly, and walked straight towards the restaurant, he found a place to sit down. This can't help but arouse the curiosity of the round land shark.

"This old man... Who is it? ”

After watching for about half an hour, Zhulan finally finished picking the dishes, and the round land shark wiped the cold sweat on her forehead. This should be the fastest time Zhulan picks something. When watching Pokémon animation before, Lu Xiaochuan remembered that Zhulan picked ice cream for an hour.

At this time, even Zhulan noticed the old man with an extraordinary temperament, and she poked the round land shark. "Huh? Where does this old man seem to have heard of it? It seems that my grandmother told me, hey... I don't remember..."

Hearing Zhulan say this, the round land shark also thought for a moment. Since it was mentioned by Mustard Orchid, the identity of this old man is definitely not simple. To be remembered by Dr. Pokémon in the Sinnoh region, is it possible... Dr. Yamanashi? It could only be Dr. Yamanashi. In addition to Zhulan, the only person who can talk to mustard orchid is Dr. Yamanashi, who is also a doctor.

The land shark raised its head and quietly glanced at the old man sitting there out of the corner of his eye. Compared with the image of Dr. Yamanashi in my mind, the round shark felt very similar.

"Could it really be Dr. Yamanashi?" Lu Xiaochuan said silently in his heart.

"Hmm... Where the hell is the Yamanashi Research Institute..."Zhulan was eating, while flipping through the map that Mustard Orchid gave her, and looked at the location where the circle was drawn on it with some headache.

"Is this your Pokémon?" An old but dignified voice sounded, and Zhulan was stunned and raised her head.

Caught his eye was an old man in a brown trench coat, a blue velvet vest, and a tie, about sixty years old, who was looking at a land shark eating Pokémon dishes.

That's right, this old man is the same old man who just entered the restaurant - Dr. Yamanashi.

"Hmm... This is the first Pokémon I've just taken. Zhulan held her chin, touched the head of the round land shark, and replied.

"Are you a trainer?" The old man straightened out his somewhat wrinkled brown trench coat, and his voice was still very majestic.

"Yes and no." Zhulan shook her head and nodded again.

As long as you have a Pokémon, you can be called a 'trainer', if you are more rigorous, you need to take the trainer certificate, and only after obtaining the trainer qualification certificate can you be called a real trainer. In addition, if you do not have a trainer certificate, you will not be able to participate in the regional tournament. Of course these old men understand.

Zhulan is also ten years old, and it is very normal to become a trainer at the age of ten.

"Judging by your appearance, you should be a rookie trainer, what are you going to do in Sand Town?" The old man continued.

"Hmm..."Zhulan thought for a moment, feeling that she didn't feel like a bad person, and there was nothing to hide, so she was straightforward: "I came to Masago Town to follow my grandmother's instructions and prepare to visit Dr. Yamanashi with the round land shark... It's just not going to... Is there anything you can do? ”

The round land shark also raised its head cooperatively, looking at the old man in front of him with a curious expression.

"It's nothing, it's just that I'm just interested in you, a round land shark, and this round land shark has very good qualifications." The old man's words are similar to what Mustard Orchid said.

"Thank you for the compliment." Zhulan smiled slightly, the dark blue hairpin on her head shook, and she picked up the round land shark in her hand.

"If you want to go to the Yamanashi Research Institute, you can first go to the Pokemon Center in Masago Town, and the Yamanashi Research Institute is right next to the Pokema Center. It's also good to go and recover the Pokémon's physical strength first. The old man spoke lightly, glanced at Zhulan meaningfully, and then left without looking back.

Zhulan scratched her blonde hair, looked at the back of the old man leaving a little inexplicably, and turned her head to look at the round land shark: "This old man... It's kind of weird... He just told us... If you want to go to the Yamanashi Research Institute, go first... Pixie Center? ”
