Not a trainer this time

Chapter 322 Making friends with lava bugs (5000)

After passing through a narrow mountain road, traces of other Pokémon appeared in front of them.

They were a group of Pokémon that were strong, stone-like in appearance, and had a pair of muscular arms.

"So many little fist stones!"

Zhi Shu looked around and saw small fist stones floating on the mountain road, wandering there.

There is also a small fist stone that buries half of the body into the ground, blending in with the surrounding environment. Only a pair of eyes and the top of the head are exposed to observe him and Gulton.

The number of small fist stones on this mountain road was particularly large. From what he could see, there must be at least fifty or sixty.

Therefore, Leton and Babu also saw the small fist stones floating in mid-air.

Baboo was very surprised by these Pokémon whose bodies were like rocks but could float off the ground. He quickly pointed to a small floating fist stone and asked Naoki how it did that.

Naoki took a look and roughly guessed what Babu meant.

But this question involves his knowledge blind spot.

Logically speaking, the small fist stone does not have floating properties, but it can leave the ground and float like ghosts. This is really amazing.

After thinking for a while, Naoki guessed: "Maybe it has something to do with gravity?"

"Bamo..."

Babu did not understand what gravity meant and had a confused expression on his face.

At this time, Naoki suddenly noticed that Gu Ledun was about to step on a small fist stone hidden in the ground, and quickly reached out to grab it, deliberately letting it go.

"Ah?" Gu Ledun was a little confused at first, but when he lowered his head and looked at it, he understood immediately.

Naoki: "Don't step on them."

It is recorded in the illustrated book that Pokémon such as Fiststone have a bad temper, are tough, and are rough. Once someone steps on them, they will become furious.

Although Guluton is very strong, there are so many small fist stones here, and it will be troublesome once a riot breaks out.

With the idea that doing more is worse than doing less, Naoki led two Pokémon around the group of small fist stones.

After about thirty minutes, they finally climbed halfway up the mountain.

At this time, Naoki also smelled a faint smell of sulfur in the air.

The surrounding temperature also increased a lot unconsciously.

All of this means: Hell Valley is here!

"It's here!"

Naoki suddenly became energetic, and Babu was also very excited.

As several people went deeper, the surrounding temperature became higher and higher, and from time to time, a stream of milky white gas could be seen spewing out from the mountain road.

In this hot environment, Naoki and Babu were sweating profusely. In comparison, Guluton was much better.

It's too hot... No wonder this place is used as a training place by those trainers.

This kind of environment is indeed an excellent place to hone perseverance and character.

There are many fire-type Pokémon living nearby.

Not far away, several Dairubi were observing the situation vigilantly. Some Dairubi let out a series of terrifying long howls, using this method to convey information to nearby companions.

Naoki took one look and understood immediately.

This place seems to be the territory of those Dairubi!

At this moment, the sound of fighting suddenly came from the front.

The group of vigilant Dairubi suddenly turned around and ran towards the direction of the sound.

That was the only way to go deeper into Hell Valley, and Naoki continued to move forward.

After crossing a rocky road, the scene ahead appeared in front of them.

A young man was directing a battle between a Blazing Monkey and a wild Heiluga.

The flame monkey was very powerful and easily defeated Heiluga in just a few rounds.

Looking at Heiluga who fell to the ground, the trainer took out the elf ball and took Heiluga inside.

When Dairubi gathered around him, they all dispersed when they saw this, and soon disappeared.

The young man didn't care much. He put Heiluga's elf ball away and planned to turn around and leave.

But at this moment, their eyes met.

At a glance, the boy saw the mysterious Pokémon with a scarlet body and a strong body not far away.

And the Pokémon next to him had pink fur, a red cape tied behind his back, and a small silver hammer in his hand.

There was interest in the young man's eyes, and the flame monkey beside him felt the trainer's heart, and the flames on his body burned more fiercely.

Naoki waved his hand and said hello proactively: "Hi, how are you?"

The young man was full of fighting spirit: "You are also a trainer who comes here to practice, right? Since we have met, why not have a Pokémon battle here!"

Naoki: "..." Sure enough, he knew it!

The moment the trainer's eyes meet, the battle is about to begin!

But it was so hot here that he didn't want to stay any longer. He just wanted to find the lava worms quickly and go back to town to eat apples.

"No, I'm not here to practice." Naoki refused: "I'm just here to look for a Pokémon."

After that, he was about to turn around and leave, but the young man ran after him.

"Looking for a Pokémon? What kind of Pokémon it is, maybe I know it!"

Naoki glanced at him.

The boy explained: "I have been practicing here for a month, and I am very familiar with the Pokémon that live nearby! I can help you find them, as long as you and I have a Pokémon battle!"

Naoki: "..."

Are these trainers too obsessed with Pokémon battles?

But in order to find the lava worms and leave this hot place as soon as possible, Zhi Shu stopped and asked, "Do you know where there are lava worms?"

Young man: "Lava bug? Of course I know!"

Very good, Naoki said simply: "Then let's have a battle now!"

"Eh?!" The topic jumped too quickly, and the boy couldn't react for a while.

But soon, he came back to his senses, his eyes full of fighting spirit: "I'm looking forward to it! Blazing Monkey, it's about to happen!"

The flame monkey nodded coldly, and then took a step forward.

Zhi Shu sent Gu Ledun.

There are not many restrictions on Pokémon battles in the wild. Once the trainer and Pokémon are in place, the battle will officially begin.

The young man looked at Gulton and said, "Although we have never seen that Pokémon, we will never lose! Flame Monkey, Flame Wheel!"

The command was given, and the flames on the Flame Monkey's body swooshed.

Flames enveloped its body, and the Blazing Monkey rushed straight towards Gulton.

Naoki wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at this scene, and said directly: "Go full blast!"

"Ah gah!"

So Leden nodded slightly, and the scarlet body jumped up, crimson energy flowing on it, and the ancient aura instantly filled the air.

Its form changed rapidly, and it faced the Flame Monkey with the force of shattering the earth.

The two Pokémon collided directly with each other, and the terrifying energy continued to impact, and then there was a violent explosion.

The flaming monkey was blown away on the spot, fell to the ground and lost its ability to fight.

juvenile:"???"

So... so strong!

The young man's face was full of shock, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a while.

What kind of Pokémon is that? Why did he kill the flaming monkey he was most proud of in one move?

You know, he is a trainer who has participated in the Suzuran Tournament and achieved the top eight!

But now, he was defeated by his opponent with one move...

The young man's brain was running rapidly, and then he came up with a shocking idea.

Could this man be a champion trainer?

Seeing that the young man looked confused, he seemed to have not yet reacted.

Naoki coughed a little embarrassedly: "It's over."

The young man was subdued. He stepped forward and fed the Blazing Monkey a bottle of medicine to restore physical strength, and then put it back into the elf ball to rest.

"I'm willing to admit defeat. I'll take you to the lava bug's habitat now!" the boy said.

"Thank you." Naoki thanked him. He could save a lot of time now.

"You're not from Beishang, right?" The young man asked curiously, "Oh, by the way, my name is Helian, what about you?"

"Naoki." Naoki replied, "I came from the Padia area."

"Pa-Padia region?" Helian's face was filled with shock. That was on the other side of the planet! Coming from so far away to this place...

"Yes." Naoki nodded slightly: "I'm here on a business trip."

No wonder, Helian suddenly realized, no wonder he didn't recognize these two Pokémon. They turned out to be Pokémon from the Padia region!

He took out the Pokédex and scanned Gulton and Baboo.

The answer was "Cannot be found, it belongs to an undiscovered Pokémon type".

Seeing that he was curious about Gulton and Babu, Naoki introduced: "This is just Gulton, and this one is called Babu. They are Pokémon from the Padia region. Are you from Sinnoh?" ?”

Helian opened his eyes wide: "How did you tell?"

Naoki: "...because the Flame Monkey is the third family of the Three Clan issued to new trainers by the Sinnoh Alliance."

Helian smiled sheepishly: "I almost forgot, but having said that, you are really strong. Your strength should have reached the championship level, right?"

"I don't know either." Naoki shook his head. It was difficult to discuss this topic. After all, he had never participated in the championship assessment.

Moreover, most of his Pokémon are produced by eating food, so it is difficult to evaluate them.

Helian was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"

Naoki said truthfully: "I have never participated in the championship assessment because I am a rancher by profession. This time I came to Beishang Township to have agricultural exchanges with the farmers here."

Helian: "???"

He opened his mouth, even more shocked.

He knew the rancher, and he also knew the farmer, but the question was why was the rancher in front of him so different from the rancher he remembered?

"I feel that if you participate in the Suzuran Tournament held in the Sinnoh region with your ability, you have a high chance of becoming the champion directly." Helian said.

"Suzuran Conference?" Naoki raised his eyebrows. When he heard these four words, the first thing he thought of was the Beast Boy in the anime.

"That's right! That's the grandest conference held in the Sinnoh region!" Helian introduced: "Only trainers who have collected eight badges can challenge!"

"If you win the championship, you will not only get fame and a large bonus, but you will also get the opportunity to compete with regional champion Miss Sirona in a Pokémon battle!"

Sirona... A figure of a cold-haired lady with blond hair appeared in Naoki's mind. He smiled and shook his head and said:

"Everyone's ambition is different! Rather than becoming a champion, I want to live with the Pokémon I like more."

"Understood." Helian nodded.

At this time, the surrounding temperature was getting higher and higher.

Helian, who was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt, was so hot that he took off his clothes and his face turned red: "It's too hot... I can't stand it anymore!"

Naoki's clothes were all soaked with sweat. He exhaled a breath of hot breath and silently said in his heart that calmness will naturally cool down.

Helian looked around, seeming to confirm something.

Then, he ran to a hillside. After seeing the scene in front of him clearly, he immediately turned back and shouted: "Naoki, come here quickly! The lava worms are here!"

Naoki ran over quickly.

I saw a large group of red lava worms lying on the hillside that was turned white by the sun.

Hot volcanic gases are constantly erupting upwards from the surrounding rubble piles, and the lava bugs are crawling around slowly, looking very lively.

Finally found!

Naoki's eyes lit up.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed the strange sight on one of the lava bugs.

The body of the lava bug was emitting a crystal-like colored light at this moment, and on top of its head was a red candlestick.

Is that... too crystalline? !

Naoki was confused.

Isn't this wrong? Beishang Township is so far away from the Padiya area, why is there Taijinghua here?

And Helian on the side also noticed that scene.

He was also very puzzled: "I don't know what it is. That lava bug is not the first Pokémon to turn into such a Pokémon. In the past month, I have encountered several strange-looking Pokémon here. Kamu, after knocking them down, they will return to their original state.”

"That's Tai Jinghua." Naoki explained.

"Too crystalline?" Helian was stunned for a moment.

"It's a magical phenomenon that occurs in the Padia region. The Taijing energy envelopes the Pokémon's body, temporarily changing their attributes and making the moves they use become more powerful, just like..."

Naoki originally wanted to say that it was the same as mega evolution, but at this time, mega evolution might not have come out yet, so he changed his words midway:

"It's similar to the Dynamax in the Galar region."

"What is Gigantamax?" Helian was even more confused.

Naoki: "..."

He couldn't help but ask: "Don't you pay attention to news from other regions?"

Helian scratched his head in embarrassment: "Because those places are too far away from us...and I usually travel outside and don't have the chance to watch the news."

"Okay." Naoki thought of the way Helian used the Pokédex to scan Gulton just now.

His Pokédex should only be a regional Pokédex for the Sinnoh region, not a national Pokédex, so it does not record information about Pokémon from other regions.

Coupled with the communication limitations of this era and the underdeveloped Internet, some trainers basically have no channels to understand the situation in other regions.

Thinking of this, Naoki said: "If you have the chance, you can go to the Galar and Padia regions to see for yourself."

Helian: "I will!"

Naoki looked at the group of lava bugs and said to Babu:

"Babu, I leave it to you!"

"Bamo!"

Seeing so many lava worms, Babu Woodchuck could no longer hold himself back.

Following Naoki's order, it took out the fruit and flew over, and sheepishly introduced itself to the lava bugs.

"Bamo Bamo!" (Hello, I am Babu Tubo, I want to become good friends with you!)

The group of lava worms looked up at Babu Woodchuck and blinked one after another.

Soon, the lava bug, which was not interested in the Babu woodchuck, looked away and continued to crawl slowly on the ground.

Babu Tubo is so disappointed.

"Bamo..."

Because almost all the lava worms in front of them ran away.

But at this moment, a relatively small lava bug slowly crawled in front of it.

Babu's attention was immediately attracted and he turned to look at the lava bug.

The lava bug looked at the fruit in its hand with its yellow eyes.

The Babu landhog looked down at the fruit, then at the lava bug, then happily stretched out his flesh pad and handed the fruit over: "Bamo!"

The lava bug stretched its head, took the fruit from Babu's hand with its mouth, and then ate it happily.

Babu Tubo happily extended his hand to it: "Bamo?" (Are you willing to be my good friend?)

The lava bug, which had finished eating the fruit, looked up at this strange Pokémon and blinked in confusion.

"Goooo?"

Baboo explained: "Bamo!" (A good friend is a good friend! I will give you a lot of berries, and we will play together every day. If any Pokémon bully you, I will knock them all down. !)

The lava bug had never heard of such a thing. It followed Babu's words and imagined it, and then began to spray white smoke all over its body.

For a moment, the sound of "bang bang bang" resounded throughout the entire cliff.

Babu was stunned for a moment. Having watched "The House of the Lava Bug", he understood the meaning of the lava bug in an instant.

This means that this lava bug is very happy now!

Babu's eyes were shining with anticipation, and he took the opportunity to ask: "Bamo?"

The lava bug looked at it, then made another thumping sound.

Seeing this, Babu Groundhog looked back at Naoki.

Naoki handed it a Poké Ball.

At the invitation of Babu Woodchuck, the lava bug happily lived in the Poké Ball and planned to go home with Babu Woodchuck.

"Bamo!"

Baboo was so happy that he successfully made new friends. He flew back with the lava bug's Poké Ball and handed it to Naoki.

Helian, who witnessed the whole process, was shocked and stunned.

Nani? !

This, this, this...

Is it still possible to conquer Pokémon like this?

No, that's not right! This Bubba woodchuck actually subdued a lava bug!

But will the lava bugs subdued by Babu Tubo obey Naoki's command?
