Not a trainer this time

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Gu Ledun's appearance, Naoki couldn't help but laugh.

Amid Guluton's disbelieving expression, Naoki touched its head.

"Okay, I'm just kidding you!"

He changed his position and leaned on the grass-scented wool of the goat behind him. Thinking of what had happened during this period, he exhaled with emotion.

Therefore, Luton tilted his head and looked at him for a while, then moved closer, leaned over and lay down next to him, lying on the beach like a big golden retriever.

None of them spoke anymore, they just quietly enjoyed the peaceful and beautiful atmosphere at the moment.

Not far away, Zhiqin Town is brightly lit, and the waves gently lap on the beach one after another, leaving white foam.

The cries of Pokémon and the chatter of humans came from the bustling street, and carried into the distance as the evening breeze blew.

For a time, even the wind became much gentler.

Motorized Lizard, Kuailong, Cloth Dog, and Ice Eevee were playing with the sand not far away with a few mini dragons and Hackosaurs, while the Salt Rock Barriers and Big Milk Tank were watching.

The mounted goat stayed next to Zhishu, leisurely eating the fruits in the picnic basket.

Olinio sat on the picnic cloth and looked at Bada Butterfly and San Bee, who were chatting quietly next to them.

From time to time, people would pass by here, and whenever they saw so many Pokémon, they would exclaim in surprise.

There were even several boys and girls around ten years old dressed as trainers who were attracted.

Naoki saw them watching Kuailong and the others for a while, and then walked towards him.

"Let's have an exciting Pokémon battle!" The boy in shorts invited him to battle.

Looking at the excited expression on the other person's face, Naoki raised his eyebrows, then turned his head and asked, "Who wants to give it a try?"

The mount goat stood up with high spirits.

"Yeah!"

Naoki waved his hand, and the rather excited goat came to the shorts boy.

After more than ten seconds, the shorts boy's Paras was knocked out.

"Okay, great!"

The other trainers who were watching on the sidelines all let out exclamations of surprise.

At this time, one of them seemed to have thought of something, opened his eyes wide and asked: "Please, are you Mr. Naoki?!"

Naoki was very surprised when he suddenly heard his name.

He turned around and saw a young man wearing a light kimono looking at him excitedly.

"You know me?" he asked.

The boy nodded: "Founder of Green Grass Trial! I've heard rumors about you in school!"

His companions were confused: "Green grass trial? What is that? A new gym test?"

"No!" the boy explained: "It is a trial to help Pokémon and trainers practice! It is said that those who participated in this trial have greatly improved their strength!"

"Huh? There is such a thing?" In response, his companion was very shocked.

"Of course! I've always wanted to give it a try..." The young man looked regretful: "Unfortunately, I haven't collected all four gym badges yet, so I'm not qualified to challenge, but I will try my best!"

Naoki: It seems that the fact that he set challenge limits has been spread by the three challengers last time.

"A lot of people know about it?" he asked.

The young man nodded: "Yes, the legend of three goats is popular in school! Many people want to challenge it, but we just entered school this year and haven't collected all four badges yet."

Hearing this, Naoki suddenly realized.

No wonder no new challengers have come to the ranch during this period. It turns out to be this reason.

"It seems that it only spread among the lower grades." Naoki thought to himself.

The young man observed his expression and looked confused: "Mr. Naoki, I have a question for you..."

"Say." Naoki acted very considerate.

Teenager: "Do I need to sign any confidentiality agreement to challenge the Green Grass Trial? I think Carter and the others are unwilling to reveal the content of the trial to us. Every time we ask them, they always have very strange expressions on their faces. "

That expression seemed to be both painful and happy.

Naoki: "..."

He smiled politely and said: "There is no confidentiality agreement. As for the content of the challenge, you will know it when you come here to challenge."

Hearing this, the young man's face was full of expectation: "I will definitely challenge you! Then we won't disturb you, goodbye!"

Naoki nodded slightly and watched the young trainers run away.

Then, Naoki turned his attention to the goat.

During this period of time, in order to help the mount goats improve their physique and enable them to better absorb the energy of grass in their bodies, he has been taking several mount goats for morning runs every day.

The landhog will also be involved.

After returning from Kuailong Island, in order to return to its true nature and evolve into a more powerful Bubo, it began to run on the ground again, rarely traveling by flying.

Naoki was very pleased with these hard-working Pokémon.

Although he is not a trainer and Pokémon does not have to fight every day, it is beneficial to them to continue to grow.

Soon, Kuailong and the others were tired of playing, so they ran back and sat around in front of the picnic cloth.

Naoki was about to say something, but suddenly he saw people starting to gather on the beach by the sea. Even the uncle who sold Magikarp King before went there.

Along with a booming explosion, a huge firework bloomed in the night sky.

In an instant, brilliant light shone on the faces of every human being participating in the festival.

Immediately afterwards, as if some kind of switch was turned on, more fireworks rose into the sky, blooming under the night sky and on the sea.

This scene is extremely beautiful, as if announcing that summer has reached its climax.

"Ouch..." Kuailong beside him couldn't help but murmured.

Naoki turned around and saw the brilliant fireworks reflected in its bright black eyes.

Although he couldn't understand what it said, Naoki thought, what it said should be "It's so beautiful!", right?

Under the sky filled with fireworks, Naoki looked at every Pokémon around him.

Motorized Lizard, Guledun, Kuailong, Butubo, Frost Milk Fairy...

He felt like he would never forget this moment.

Suddenly, Motorized Lizard and Guluton seemed to feel something.

They retracted their gaze from the fireworks and turned their heads to look this way.

The eyes of the two Pokémon were equally clear and bright, and their expressions were so relaxed and joyful. Naoki saw himself in their eyes.

"Ah gahsh~"

"Gah!"

The corners of Naoki's mouth raised, and then he stretched out his hands to hold the paws of the two Pokémon.

One person and two Pokémon continued to watch the fireworks display.

Under the sky full of stars and blooming fireworks, Naoki's lips moved and said in his heart:

"I am also very happy to meet you!"
