On February 25, 200 in the Union calendar, after a one-day flight, Dr. Ohki's plane finally arrived in the Padia region.

The Kanto Airlines passenger plane landed at the airport with a full cabin of tourists.

Dr. Ohki, dressed in casual clothes, stepped out of the cabin with a new look on his face and looked at the bustling metropolis.

Speaking of which, this was the first time he had been to the Padian region!

The architecture of the city is full of Pardian features, and in the middle of the city, there stands an ancient academy with a long history.

That's the College of Pardea.

Before setting out for this place, Dr. Oki did his homework and got a general idea of the current situation in the Padian region.

Leaving the airport and walking down the street, Dr. Oki looked excitedly at the strange Pokémon that followed the pedestrians on the side of the road.

A grass cat Pokémon with light green fur that looks like a cat, a Hammer Pokémon with a pink body with a small hammer in its hand, and a lizard Pokémon with a tire-shaped airbag in front of it.

Wow! All of them are Pokémon that are not available in the Kanto area!

Dr. Oki took out Lothom's phone and scanned the Pokémon.

It's so convenient to have a Lothom phone now! Back in the day, they still used hand-drawn methods to make Pokémon Illustrated Books!

And now as long as you scan it with your mobile phone, you can query the ecological information of Pokémon.

Lothom's mechanized electronic voice came from his phone.

"New leaf meow, grass cat Pokémon, fluffy body hair has plant-like composition, and will wash your face diligently to prevent dryness!"

"Smith, Hammer Pokémon, in order to make a large and strong hammer, will attack the group of slashing commanders, and then collect metal!"

"Motorcycle lizards, mount Pokémon, it seems that humans have been sitting on their backs since ancient times, and that scene is depicted in murals 10,000 years ago!"

"Sure enough, it's a Pokémon unique to the Padia region!"

Dr. Ohki, who had never been to the Pardea region, was curious about the Pokémon species and ecology here.

Would he like to ask Ash to travel here to help collect the Pokédex and take a few of Pardea's Pokémon back to the Institute?

But Ash is currently traveling in the Hoenn region......

"Forget it, let's wait until Ash's trip in the Hoenn region is over!" Dr. Oki said secretly.

After all, the Kanto region and the Padia region are located at opposite ends of the planet, and there are other regions in between, so it is better for Ash to travel step by step.

"Ahh I almost forgot to get here! Dr. Ohki, who was accidentally attracted by Pokémon, patted his head.

He looked down at Lothom's phone, looking for ways to get from Tabletop City to Ranqin Town.

Soon, Dr. Oki found the answer - the angry parrot flying taxi.

Five minutes later, Dr. Oki was in a flying taxi powered by three angry parrots.

The angry parrot has a rope tied to it, and the other end of the rope is connected to the flying taxi.

There are two rows of flying taxis, with the driver in the front and passengers in the back.

"This way of flying is really unique!" Dr. Oki said curiously.

There is no such means of transportation in the Kanto area.

The driver in front smiled and said, "This passenger, you are coming to the Padia region for the first time, right?" ”

Dr. Oki nodded, "That's right! ”

"No wonder!" The driver explained: "The Parrot Flying Taxi is our unique means of transportation in the Padian region, and it is used not only by us, but also by the Gallerian region next door!" However, their driver Pokémon is not a Angry Parrot, but a Pokémon called Steel-Armored Raven. ”

Steel Crow? Dr. Oki immediately remembered that he had just seen the huge, pitch-black bird Pokémon with steel-like feathers in the city.

Dr. Oki: "I think there are Pokémon like Steel Crows in the Padia region, so why don't you hire them to work?" ”

Judging from the appearance of the two Pokémon, the Steel Crow is more suitable for this job, right? Both size and speed.

However, hearing this, the driver in front of him looked distressed: "It's not that we don't want to hire the steel crow, it's that we can't hire it." ”

"Oh?"

"Because here in the Pardea region inhabit a Pokémon called the Giant Blacksmith, which has a high intelligence, and if it sees a steel crow in the sky in the wild, it will immediately attack them with a hammer."

Hearing this, two words immediately came to Dr. Ohki's mind: natural enemies!

The Giant Blacksmith is the natural enemy of the Steel Crow, just like the relationship between the Green Caterpillar and the Bibi Bird!

"I see!"

It's no wonder that the Padia region doesn't use steel crows to pull flying taxis.

The driver smiled innocently, and then concentrated on driving the flying taxi.

After a day of flying, Dr. Ohki was a little tired, and he leaned back in his seat and squinted for a moment.

By the time Dr. Oki opened his eyes again, the Angry Parrot Flying Taxi had arrived in the town of Zoqin.

He got out of the car, walked down the streets of Yanqin Town, took out his mobile phone, and contacted Lei Guanwang through private chat.

Although Dr. Oki wanted to go directly, Lei Guanwang did not tell him his detailed address at that time, and only replied to the town of Qinqin.

The message was sent out, and a reply was quickly given.

[Farmer: Please wait. 】

Dr. Oki stood there and waited.

About two minutes later, a round Pokémon with a big belly landed in front of him.

It's a fast dragon!

Dr. Oki was a little surprised.

The dragon stared at him for a moment, then turned around and barked at him.

"Whew!"

Dr. Oki was slightly stunned, then pointed to himself and asked, "Do you want me to sit on it?" ”

"Whew!" The dragon nodded.

"Your trainer told you to pick me up?" Dr. Oki asked again.

The dragon still nodded.

Seeing this, Dr. Ohki understood.

He didn't say much, and rode very simply onto the dragon's back.

The dragon flapped its wings and flew into the sky, towards the outskirts of the town.

Soon, a pasture appeared in the field ahead.

The fast dragon landed in the pasture, and as soon as Dr. Oki came down, he saw a familiar figure.

Naoki, who had been waiting for this for a long time, welcomed with a smile, "Long time no see, Dr. Oki! ”

Dr. Ohki's eyes widened in disbelief.

"It's you!"

At last year's United Banquet, the trainer who attended the banquet with Adek, the champion of the United Public, not only that, but he also defeated the famous dragon messenger Adu in the Guandu region......

Because of this, Dr. Ohki was very impressed with the trainer.

Naoki smiled and nodded, "It's me, hello, Dr. Oki, let's officially introduce myself!" I'm Naoki, the rancher of this ranch, and I welcome you to the Padia region. ”

*

As for the identity of the rancher, at first, Dr. Oki didn't think anything about it.

At Naoki's invitation, he was going to go to the living room for a cup of tea and rest.

Along the way, Dr. Oki sees all kinds of Pokémon.

A variety of crops grow among the neat ridges.

And next to the field, a perfectly bred dragon was standing there praying for rain.

Under the operation of the fast dragon, a rain cloud appeared above the farmland, and the dripping rainwater dripped from above, irrigating the farmland below.

"That's my fast dragon, which is currently working as a waterer on the ranch." Naoki noticed Dr. Ohki's gaze and introduced him.

Dr. Oki nodded, and at this time, he saw a large group of black-pressed Pokémon flying out of his head.

When Dr. Oki looked up, he saw that those Pokémon were all fast dragons, and they were all carrying satchels!

"Those fast dragons are?!" Dr. Oki was surprised, what a lot of fast dragons!

He had visited the Land of Dragons before, but even in the Dragon Sanctuary, there were not so many fast dragons!

Naoki took one look at it and said, "Oh, that! They are the delivery people in the ranch, and I opened an online store the other day, and when customers order goods in the store, the fast dragons will set out to deliver the goods to the customers. ”

“？？？”

That's when Dr. Ohki finally realized that something was wrong.

Having subdued so many fast dragons, and is suspected of subduing the legendary Pokémon Lei Crown, such a person claims to be a rancher?

Shouldn't you be a trainer with championship strength?

In decades of his life, Dr. Ohki had never seen such a rancher.

Even Xiao Qian, who opened a moo ranch in Manjin City, is not like this.

Could it be that he is retired?

Dr. Ohki knows that some trainers choose to retire when they reach adulthood and start moving into other industries.

It must be like this!

"Seeing that Ling is still young, why did he retire so early?" Dr. Oki asked, puzzled.

"Retired?" Naoki didn't react for a while.

But soon, he heard what Dr. Ohki meant.

- Dr. Ohki thought he was a champion who retired and came back to run the ranch.

This kind of thing has happened to Naoki many times before, and now he doesn't want to explain it more, so he said:

"I want to live an ordinary life in this place with Pokémon more than Pokémon battles."

"That's it!" Dr. Oki looked at those Pokémon and smiled, "You must like them a lot." ”

He saw that the spirit of those Pokémon was very good, and he was taken care of by Naoki at a glance.

"yes!" Naoki smiled.

The two continued to move forward, and Dr. Oki's attention was drawn to the other Pokémon in the ranch.

"So Lotton, Motorcycle Lizard, Babu Tupa, Frost Milk Fairy, Doom, Winged Hair, I remember them!" Dr. Oki said excitedly, Naoki had sent them out to fight at the previous banquet.

Naoki smiled and nodded, he looked at the few Pokémon over there again, and introduced to Dr. Ohki:

"That's the Saifu Tycoon, the Frost Milk Fairy is surrounded by the Salt Stone Giant Spirit, the dark horse over there is the Spirit Horse, and the White Horse is the Snow Storm Horse, they are all the favorite horses of the Thunder Crown King."

The other Pokémon were all playing in the Kirby Beast Park on the other side of the river, and Naoki was not in a hurry to introduce them, after all, Dr. Oki seemed to be full of curiosity about these Pokémon, and he must have planned to study them well later.

When the time comes, he will introduce Dr. Ohki.

Looking at these strange Pokémon, Dr. Oki was so excited that he almost fainted.

Lots of Pokémon! Is this paradise?

There are more types of Pokémon living in this ranch than there are Pokémon in his research!

As a Ph.D. who studies Pokémon ecology, Dr. Oki wants to start observing these Pokémon right away.

But reason told him that there was more important things to do now.

He hadn't seen the legendary Pokémon who could use Lothom's phone to surf the Internet and was known as the King of Plenty.

Seeing Dr. Oki's appearance, Naoki smiled, and at this time, the two of them came to the front of the house.

Naoki pushed the door open, "Please come in!" ”

"Then excuse me!"

Dr. Oki walked in with excitement on his face, and he immediately noticed the Pokémon sitting on the couch.

Is that...... Lei Guanwang!

Dr. Oki was so excited that he finally saw it!

"I don't need to introduce you, do you?" Naoki said with a smile.

King Lei Guan also saw Dr. Oki at this time, he bowed his head slightly elegantly, and said with telepathy: "You are good, Dr. Oki. ”

Speak, speak!

Dr. Oki gasped.

But soon, he realized that the Thunder Crown King didn't speak, it was telepathy.

"Please be seated!" Naoki invites Dr. Oki to sit down on the couch.

The younger sister on the side brought a cup of black tea to the guests.

Dr. Oki drank it down, and then looked at the Lace Crown with excitement in his eyes.

This is not the first time Dr. Oki has seen a legendary Pokémon.

Decades ago, he had seen the legendary Pokémon Shrabbi who could travel through time freely in a forest.

But even so, Dr. Ohki was thrilled.

After all, this is an extremely rare legendary Pokémon!

"When did you meet the Thunder Crown?" Dr. Oki asked.

Naoki recalled a little and replied, "It was about the winter of the year before last!" ”

The year before last was 198, so if you look at it this way, two years have passed.

"At that time, the Thunder Crown King lost his strength and memory, and wandered alone in a Pokémon on the vast snowfield." Naoki continued.

Hearing about the past of the Lei Guanwang, Dr. Oki couldn't help but be very surprised: "How come? ”

Naoki didn't answer and asked, "Does Dr. Oki know about the Galel region?" ”

Galel Region...... Dr. Ohki nodded.

"The Crown King used to live in the Galel region." Naoki continued, "He was the king there, worshipped by people thousands of years ago, who built temples and sacrificed to Him. ”

Hearing this, Dr. Oki was slightly stunned.

Legend has it that the King of Fertility turned out to be the king of the ancient Galel region......

This news is so shocking!

But then, Dr. Ohki noticed another sentence that Naoki had said earlier.

If the Thunder Crown King was so revered at the time, why did he lose his strength and memory and get lost in the snowfield?

Could it be that someone launched a sneak attack on him in order to compete with the Thundercrown King for royal power?
