Pokemon Dawn

The sun set in the west and dyed half of the sky red.

Before it was completely dark, Xiaoye put the Pokémon back into the ball, quickly left the narrow cave, and headed north.

Although the fossil pterosaurs have left, there is no guarantee that they will return again. It is better to leave this area as soon as possible.

When she didn't need to battle and compete with Pokémon along the way, Xiaoye always traveled very quickly. When the sun faded and the stars and moon hung high, she arrived at an open space backed by rocks.

"You've traveled so far, you won't be found again, right?" Piqiu looked at the sky in the direction of Shenling Mountain - although he didn't know if there were any "mountains" yet - he said with lingering fear.

"Yeah, I think so too." Xiaoye nodded.

Since all the Pokémon were injured to some extent, and the injuries of Big Bird and Ghost were particularly serious, Xiaoye canceled tonight's training content to let the Pokémon have a good rest - although they need to be suppressed first

Live a big water dragon that is overly energetic and wants to fight.

Let the Pokémon rest and wander nearby, while Saya set up the stove and started cooking a somewhat late dinner.

After a thrilling day, the Pokémon were all a little sleepy and were not as noisy as usual. Gyarados, who couldn't find a fighting partner, had no chance to put out the fire with a water cannon. They dealt with it step by step.

Xiaoye finally relaxed her tense nerves a little.

There won't be any more accidents. As soon as this thought came up, Xiaoye stopped chopping vegetables.

"What's wrong? Qiu!"

Pichu seemed to be a little hypersensitive by the ferocious fossil pterosaurs. He noticed the change in the trainer's expression more sensitively than usual, and immediately raised his ears and stared desperately at the sky.

"It's okay, it's not a fossil pterosaur." Xiaoye smiled and touched the little Piqiu's head with her wet hands - not surprisingly, the electric mouse shook its head and shook its fur sadly, "It's that Riolu.

"

"What, that guy, Qiu." After Pichu heard this, he immediately relaxed and weakly slid from Xiaoye's shoulders into her arms, "Why is it still following us Qiu? It's really pestering Qiu."

Turning her gaze towards the direction from which the waveguide aura came, Xiaoye showed a somewhat relieved look.

When the fossil pterosaur launched a deadly pursuit, Xiaoye only had time to divert the hunters who tried to attack Riolu, and had no time to take care of more. Then thunder fell from the sky, the mountain peak revealed its true form, the huge giant rock monster collapsed, and Xiaoye was gone.

I don't know if Riolu managed to escape in this chaos - if he was accidentally crushed by the huge mountain, he would probably die.

Fortunately, the aura of its waveguide power appeared again. Everyone's waveguide is different, and there is no way Xiaoye could mistake its aura. This shows that the most tragic ending has not befallen it.

Sensing the familiar power of the waveguide, Xiaoye's somewhat relaxed and relieved mood soon turned into surprise.

Because she discovered that this breath did not stop far away as usual, but came straight towards her.

The figure of the small dog-shaped Pokémon peeled out of the darkness little by little and fell into the warm glow of the campfire.

There were many scars on its body, and it had obviously suffered due to the changes in the Shenling Mountain. However, its eyes were very bright, and its dark red eyes did not dodge at all, staring straight at Xiaoye.

Riolu is a Pokémon with very keen observation. With just one glance, it saw the numerous scars on Xiaoye's "group members" and Xiaoye herself.

Obviously, they paid a lot of price for the attack by the group of fossil pterosaurs.

Riolu felt doubts from the bottom of his heart. Since they were not confident in facing the swarms of fossil pterosaurs, they were obviously just struggling to escape - then, why did Xiao Ye take the risk to save it?

It's not a member of Xiaoye's group and doesn't need to be rescued, right?

Although he was so confused, a strange feeling was rolling in Riolu's heart. In other words, this feeling came from when the crystal blue light ball hit the fossil pterosaur and lured away the gray hunter who threatened its life.

appeared.

This was a mood Riolu had never felt before, so much so that it couldn't even be described. It wasn't hostility, or wariness, or the excitement of fighting - it was a softer, brighter mood. Something like

…

When it takes a nap under the tree, the sun shines on it through the gaps in the leaves.

Maybe it was this unfamiliar mood that was causing the problem, or maybe it just wanted to know the answer too much - after weighing it again and again, Riolu cautiously and cautiously approached Xiaoye step by step.

Little Pichu put on a shocked face as if he saw the sun coming out of the west, but Xiaoye was as calm as ever. She didn't stop what she was doing, and put the cut sandwiches into the plate one by one, smiling at Riolu

Say hello, "Good evening."

Riolu immediately stood still like a reflex, looking a little at a loss.

"What's wrong, are you hungry?"

As soon as Xiaoye said this, Riolu's stomach immediately growled twice in response.

Regardless of whether it was Riolu or Saya and his party, they no longer had time to eat since they were attacked by the fossil pterosaurs at noon, and they had been rushing on their way, so they must be ravenous by now.

Riolu seemed to really think about it for a moment and nodded very seriously.

"Then, do you want to eat together?" Xiaoye shook the sandwich in her hand and asked with a smile.

The wild Pokémon that was tempted with food tilted its head, looking a little confused, and did not answer immediately.

——Didn't run away immediately.

When dinner started, Xiaoye placed a plate with a sandwich on the ground far away from the stove and waved to Riolu, "If you are hungry, please use it."

She didn't deliberately stare at Riolu's movements. After leaving the sandwich, she returned to the stove and had dinner with her Pokémon. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Riolu walking towards the sandwich hesitantly.

He nodded to himself.

As expected, I was very hungry.

Moreover, it was indeed difficult to find food in the nearby rocky mountain area, otherwise Riolu, who was so vigilant, would have no reason to take the initiative to approach her.

On the other side, sitting cross-legged in front of a plate with sandwiches, Riolu's expression can be described in one word——

Like facing a formidable enemy.

It stared at the unknown object in front of it, not knowing what to do at all.

It could tell that this strange-shaped thing should be edible food. But it had never seen such a thing before, and it didn't know if it would be harmful if it ate it - just like the beautiful poisonous fruit in the giant forest.

That way.

Maybe it's because it's too hungry, yes, it must be because it's too hungry - its instinct is actually about to start, making it want to eat what the "group leader" gave it.

Obviously, I never felt like this even if I was hungry for several days in a row.

While he was thinking hard, the golden electric mouse jumped up to Riolu, causing Riolu to immediately jump up.

"Hey, don't you want to eat this? If you don't want to eat it, I will eat it, Qiu?"

Pichu was used to Riolu's vigilant conditioned reflex, and without waiting for Riolu's reply, he stretched out his claws towards the sandwich.

"!" Riolu was startled, and without hesitation grabbed the sandwich on the plate and stuffed it into his mouth.

"...If you want to eat, just tell me earlier. I won't compete with you for the mounds." Little Piqiu shook his ears depressedly, "How is it? Is the mound delicious?"

Riolu chewed the food he had never tasted before seriously, and the time he spent thinking made Pichu even suspect that he was an idiot - and then he nodded to Pichu more seriously.

Pichu: "...What's there to think about??" (Black Qiu question mark)

"Pichu, if you don't have enough snacks, there are still snacks here. Don't compete with the guests for food."

Xiaoye's voice came from afar, and Pichu immediately responded and ran back to Xiaoye to get snacks after dinner.

Riolu thought for a moment and followed Pichu over.

Half an hour later.

"Ah, I'm full, I'm full, I'm full..."

"Ouch..."

Pichu and Riolu lay on the ground side by side, sighing contentedly.

Xiaoye, who was putting away the kitchen utensils, was three or four meters away from Riolu. This seemed to be the second time that it was so close to Xiaoye.

As for the first time——

It's not a friendly situation, so don't mention it.

Before going to bed, Xiaoye used wound medicine on the most seriously injured Big Bird and tied the bandage again. The Pokémon's own recovery power is already very good, plus the effect of the wound medicine, in a day or two

You will be completely healed.

After gently tying the bandage and completing the entire set of work, Xiaoye looked at Riolu who was lying with Pichu.

"Riolu." Xiaoye crouched down and kept eye level with it, "Shall I treat you too?"

The scattered scars on its body have not been treated at all, and the dried blood is solidified around it, making it look quite miserable. If it hadn't been for the strong physical fitness of a fighting Pokémon, it might not have been able to get here.

Riolu immediately turned over and sat up, staring at the medicine bottle in Xiaoye's hand.

It saw the process of Xiaoye using it to treat the big bird, and it also knew that the medicine bottle was not a life-threatening thing. But - similarly, for Riolu, this kind of technological product is too unfamiliar.

.

Seeing that Riolu didn't answer, Xiaoye stretched out her hand tentatively and handed the medicine bottle to Riolu.

The puppy Pokémon took a step back reflexively, and then hesitantly walked back after seeing Saya's actions.

She...she probably didn't want to kill me, right?

Riolu thought so and carefully took the medicine bottle from Xiaoye's hand.

Although it has never come into contact with spray-type wound medicine, the method of using this medicine is not complicated. Following Xiaoye's prompts, it tried pressing the button to spray the medicine.

The cool liquid seeped into the wound, causing it to shiver for several times. However, the irritating pain quickly disappeared, and even the pain of the wound itself weakened a lot. The burning sensation faded away, replaced by the pain of the wound quickly

Unique numbing and itching sensation during healing.

Riolu's eyes suddenly lit up. It showed a novel and excited expression, and called Xiaoye a few times in a brisk tone.

"Very effective, right?" The purple-haired girl smiled gently, and the corners of her mouth raised in the same arc as the crescent moon above her head.

"I'll give you that bottle of medicine."

====================

Small theater:

Xiaoye: Riolu, who is so vigilant, actually approached me. He is indeed very hungry. (Nods)

Riolu: No way!! (Turning over the table)
