Elf, a genius scientist who traveled from one piece

Under Sakaki's lead, Su Sheng and Itsuki left the beach house and walked along the streets of Cerulean City.

"Um... Mr. Sakaki, where exactly are we going?"

After walking for a while, Itsuki couldn't contain his inner confusion and asked Sakaki.

"Don't worry, we'll be there soon."

Sakaki's calm tone carried a hint of barely concealed excitement.

It's like someone offering a pillow just as you're about to fall asleep.

The good deeds you've done will be put to good use by me, Sakaki, against the Pokémon League!

As they walked, Itsuki noticed that they were heading towards the outskirts of the city.

But Itsuki couldn't guess what Sakaki wanted them to see.

Could it be that he discovered some rare Pokémon?

Rumble... Rumble...

As they were about to leave the city.

A series of rumbles suddenly came from the suburbs.

Moreover, the further they went, the louder the sound became.

"Is this... a construction site?"

Itsuki looked around and saw excavators, cement trucks, large transport trucks, and various other tools used for construction.

And around them were felled trees.

However, there wasn't a single worker in sight.

It wasn't until the three of them went deeper that someone finally came to stop them.

"Hey, hey, no entry ahead... Eh? Mr. Sakaki!?"

A middle-aged man wearing a hard hat and dressed like a foreman wanted to stop them, but the next second he recognized Sakaki.

Sakaki chuckled: "I'm an old friend of President Rimitsu, and I heard he was in trouble, so I came to see."

"Oh! I see, thank you for your trouble, Mr. Sakaki, but it's almost resolved."

The foreman quickly made way for them.

The three continued forward, Sakaki walking ahead and explaining: "This is the Cerulean City expansion project contracted by Sandslash Real Estate Company. Do you remember Mr. Rimitsu, A Sheng?"

Su Sheng pondered for a moment, then replied two seconds later: "The person who sold us the house, right?"

Sakaki nodded, "That's right. Now that the Pokémon League is growing stronger and the birth rate is rising, the demand for houses is naturally increasing. At this time, there is a need to expand the city."

At this point, Sakaki paused, "We're here."

Su Sheng and Itsuki also stopped and looked ahead.

"Those Pokémon are...?"

Itsuki's pupils dilated the moment he saw them.

A large number of League trainers sent out their respective Pokémon, engaging in a chaotic battle with another group of Pokémon with no trainers to command, 99% of whom were wild Pokémon.

The trainers' Pokémon varied in type, while the wild Pokémon were mainly of the Houndoom family, Ursaring family, Murkrow family, and Donphan family.

"They must be wild Pokémon whose territory has been taken over."

Su Sheng replied.

"That's right,"

Sakaki smiled faintly, "If humans want to expand their territory, they will inevitably take away the homeland of Pokémon. Thus, such conflicts occur."

"Can't those wild Pokémon be moved away? Or can other trainers capture them?"

Itsuki asked again.

"If someone broke into your house, took over your house, and then told you to find another place to live, would you accept it?"

Su Sheng retorted.

Itsuki was speechless for a moment.

"Moreover, going to a new place means that they are likely to fight with other wild Pokémon. Although the struggle between Pokémon is not as insidious as that of humans, its brutality is no less."

Are there few incidents of Seviper and Zangoose, Pidgeot and Fearow fighting to the death for their respective clans and territories?

Rather than going to a new environment and fighting new enemies, it is better to fight with these humans who are seizing their homes.

That's probably what these wild Pokémon are thinking.

As for letting trainers capture them, it is even more impossible.

From the moment the Pokémon League decided to seize the homes of these Pokémon.

They were destined to stand on the opposite side of humans.

How could they become partner Pokémon of humans?

"Ah! Is Donphan not fighting anymore?"

Itsuki suddenly noticed that a scarred Donphan stopped attacking, "Ho-um, ho-um~" calling softly to five or six Phanpy behind it.

"Woo-woo~"

The Phanpy's injuries were not as serious as Donphan's. Most likely, the big brother was at the front, blocking most of the attacks for them.

But after hearing the big brother's words, the Phanpy all drooped their heads, their big ears almost touching the ground.

Then Donphan took the lead and turned away from the construction site.

The Phanpy also followed behind.

Before long, the Donphan family's backs completely disappeared into the depths of the jungle.

"They've given in."

Although there was no Team Rocket's Meowth to translate, Su Sheng guessed what Donphan had just said.

"Woof woof! Woof woof!"

At this time, a Houndoom with blood flowing from its forehead roared at Donphan a few times.

But it still didn't get a response.

"Awoo woo~"

The Houndoom gnashed its teeth in anger, as if scolding "traitor".

"Woof woof..."

At this time, another Houndoom came up to comfort it.

And shook its head in the direction Donphan left, with a hint of unbearable expression.

Probably saying "Should we leave too?"

"Woof woo!"

However, the Houndoom with blood flowing from its head roared even louder, severely reprimanding the companion, or rather, spouse, who was comforting it.

Immediately afterwards, the largest Houndoom let out a long roar to the Houndour behind it, as well as the surrounding Ursaring family and Murkrow family.

"Woo woo woo~~"

The other Houndoom beside it and a group of Houndour behind it also raised their necks together.

"Awoo woo woo——!"

Su Sheng: "It's [Howl], a move that increases the attack power of itself and its companions."

Sure enough, for a time, the morale of the Houndoom, Ursaring, and Murkrow families soared.

They advanced rapidly, scattering the temporary force formed by the League trainers.

Not only that, they also frantically destroyed the houses and roads that the real estate company had just built, smashing the walls, railings, and everything else to pieces.

"What an ungrateful bunch of beasts."

Rimitsu, the boss of the real estate company who had met them once before, rubbed his temples and turned to the tall man behind him and said:

"Then I'll have to trouble you."

As he spoke, a man with blue slicked-back hair and sunglasses even in the daytime, with a height of nearly 1.9 meters, walked out from behind Rimitsu.

"That person is... Aldus, one of the Elite Four of the Indigo League!?"

Itsuki was startled again.

Su Sheng also secretly sized him up.

After all, there are still many years before Xiaozhi starts his journey. It is normal to have other Elite Four before Du.

But this Aldus... looks like he is not even forty years old.

Why wasn't he serving as one of the Elite Four of the Indigo League when Xiaozhi started his adventure?

Just as Su Sheng was guessing.

Aldus had already silently taken out a Poké Ball and gently threw it.

By the way, would it be considered a spoiler if I revealed Aldus's true identity now? It shouldn't be, after all, everyone can find out if they look it up. As long as the story is interesting, everyone should be able to accept it. It doesn't matter if you haven't played this game, Xiao Mei will write it so that everyone can understand.
