Hogwarts: Where the Pokémon Are

On the second day after Harry and Ron returned, more and more young wizards began to challenge Xia Lin. But fortunately, there are only about thirty wizards who own Pokémon now. Some of them didn't like fighting as much as Hermione, so Xia Lin's workload was actually not heavy.

And these little wizards who already have Pokémon have passed the selection before, and they are among the best in their respective grades. Therefore, Xia Lin is not too stuck on the release of badges. As long as he is still qualified, he will give away the creation badges.

In addition, he also talked to Snape, so by the end of the term, there will be many Pokémon trainers who can collect eight badges.

In addition, he also plans to give other wizards a chance. The nearly a thousand students at Hogwarts will also select dozens of young wizards through selection methods and grant them the qualifications to participate.

The selection method was the same as the club selection method at that time, by renting Pokémon prepared by Xia Lin in advance for battle. To be honest, it's almost impossible to win with these Pokémon.

After all, the Pokémon of the wizard members of the club may have been cultivated for several months, and neither the level nor the tacit understanding can be compared to the Pokémon on loan.

Take Harry's Pikachu as an example. In order not to disappoint Harry, Pikachu not only lasted longer in the battle with Xia Lin, but also used its own perseverance to lift the poisoned state at the last moment.

If it were other Pokémon, they wouldn't have this ability at all.

Harry's Pikachu is just an ordinary Pikachu, but in Xia Lin's opinion, that Pikachu actually has the potential to become a partner Pikachu.

Partner Pokémon are fixed in the game. Except for their appearance, they are completely different creatures from ordinary Pokémon in other aspects. Even the Electric Beads have no effect on partner Pikachu.

However, in reality, ordinary Pokémon can become partner Pokémon.

The catalyst is the trainer's own power and the bond of Pokémon.

In theory, it is possible for any Pokémon to become a partner Pokémon, but in reality, the final form of Pokémon cannot be enhanced by this ability. In other words, super evolution and bond transformation themselves may be manifestations of this power.

Xia Lin sent over the batch of nighthawks and Gugu that Hagrid had asked for before. In fact, he knew that the guy who hunted the unicorn was Quirrell without even thinking about it.

On Friday, Charlene was called to the principal's office by Dumbledore, where he met Sirius Black and Remus Lupin, who he was supposed to meet on Saturday.

Sirius seemed like a very elegant and elegant man. There is a hint of aristocratic temperament in both the way he dresses and the way he moves. Remus Lupine, on the other hand, was much more melancholy.

Mr. Werewolf looked very tired and weathered. His clothes were clean but a little shabby. Of course, it's very clean.

This is important, so say it twice!

"You are Charlene Gold!"

As soon as Blake saw Xia Lin, he quickly walked up to him and stretched out his hand to hold Xia Lin.

"You caught that traitor Peter, I'm so grateful to you!" he said excitedly. God knows how angry he was when he learned that Peter Pettigrew was still alive!

I actually let that damn thing live happily for ten years!

"You're welcome, Mr. Black." Xia Lin didn't care too much.

"Thank you for taking care of Harry." Seeing him, Lupine stood up and followed Black. Compared to Black's more outgoing personality, he was much more reserved.

"My name is Remus Lupin, and I'm a friend of Harry's parents."

"Charlene Gold." Charlene also gave a brief introduction, "Harry is my student, and I am just doing my duties as a professor."

"I wish some Potions professor who never washed his hair could be as conscientious as you!" Sirius said immediately.

It's a pity that the person he almost named was not there and couldn't hear his weirdness.

"I specially invited Remus to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts next semester." Dumbledore said with a wink.

Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?

Xia Lin was stunned.

Harry's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in his second year has become Lupin, so what will Lockhart do?

Xia Lin told Dumbledore some of the plots he knew. Now, Dumbledore actually chose to take the initiative to change his fate, which surprised him.

He thought Dumbledore would choose a more conservative approach.

However, now that Dumbledore has made his decision, he won't say anything. In other words, replacing the useless Lockhart with the conscientious Lupine has many benefits for the little wizards at Hogwarts.

"So, why did you call me here?"

"For another injustice." Dumbledore held up a finger.

In fact, he was mainly looking for Sirius and Xia Lin. Unexpectedly, Lupine and Sirius actually stayed together, which gave him an unexpected surprise. So before Xia Lin came over, he first talked to Lupine about the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"Another unjust case?" Sirius frowned and said eagerly, "What happened? Did you finally realize that the snot-nosed guy is not a good thing?"

Thinking of himself, he suddenly felt that this matter might not be that simple. Otherwise, Dumbledore wouldn't have specifically asked him to come to the school.

Xia Lin guessed what Dumbledore was talking about. Speaking of which, he was the one who told Dumbledore about it.

"The explanation is a bit complicated, and this matter has nothing to do with Severus." Dumbledore said pretending to be mysterious.

He was silent for a while, probably thinking about what information he could reveal and what information he should keep from Sirius and Lupine.

After a short deliberation, he decided to keep the Horcrux issue, but Regulus Black could vindicate him.

"It's about your brother, Regulus Black."

"Regulus, that boy?" Sirius was stunned, as if he was surprised that Dumbledore suddenly mentioned his younger brother's name. But to be honest, he didn't like Regulus.

The two of them had not been able to play together since they were children. Regulus was cowardly and timid, and he was proud to join Slytherin. He firmly believed in the supremacy of pure blood, and it was best not to become a Death Eater unexpectedly.

After so many years, I'm afraid I don't know where he died.

Thinking about it, Sirius still felt a little sad. After all, that was his brother, although in comparison, he and James were more like brothers.
