Pokémon: Trainers start as bounty hunters

"Boom"

After the electric dragon let out a lovely howl, it "annihilated" a group of orb silk spiders led by an Alidos that had somehow rushed up to catch prey.

If this type of elf with dual attributes of insect and poison is not led by the evolved Alidos, he actually prefers to stay in one place and wait for prey to come to him.

But who made the evolved Alidos have a bad temper, so that the orb silk spiders had to choose to go together under the leadership of the leader of their own group?

Orb silk spiders are quite patient. After filling the trap with thin and strong silk, they will wait for their prey to be caught.

Before prey arrives, the orb silk spider will remain in the same position in its nest for several days, motionless and continuing to ejaculate.

Even if the prey is hung in a nest made of threads, it will wait until the prey is exhausted.

Zhe also put down the notes in his hand and squatted down to collect them.

Unlike the weak silk thread spun by the green caterpillar, the thread of the orb silk spider is a very good material.

Weaving the threads of an Orb Silk Spider into a net that can capture Fish Pokémon is an extremely popular simple item.

Adhering to the concept that no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still flesh, so we cannot let it go.

In the process of collecting spider silk, Zheya unconsciously remembered the scene where the Junsha ladies sent out the police in Orb Silk Spider Town a few days ago.

That's really fast.

From the name, it is not difficult to see what Orb Silk Spider Town is famous for.

The Junsha ladies here use orb silk spiders as their partners, and they take advantage of the orb silk spider's sensitivity to thread webs to the extreme.

It is no exaggeration to say that the wire traps laid out by the orb silk spiders in the town are enough to make it impossible for anyone to escape.

This is a super-powerful sensing ability that can determine the type of an object just based on the subtle vibrations transmitted from the wire.

The only pity is that the cultivation of this ability is no longer a big secret, and Zhe can't make money through this.

Thanks to the fact that the frontal combat capabilities of Orb Silk Spiders and Evolved Aridos are not that strong, and their web layout is also subject to both time and location restrictions, otherwise this type of elves would have been quite popular.

Of course, this does not prevent some poachers from using these two elves. After all, they are quite useful in certain situations.

"Let's go, it looks like we're almost there."

Zheye stood up, glanced at the looming building not far away, and said to the electric dragon beside him.

"Boom"

There was also a hint of relaxation in the electric dragon's cry.

It's really hard to concentrate on protecting your trainer all the way.

Who would have known that he would stop caring about anything when he was busy? He was so exhausted.

Walking along the path opened by someone unknown in the forest, one person and one elf soon arrived at Platycodon City, the second largest city in the Johto region.

This is a city surrounded by a sea of ​​trees and various peculiar landscapes, and it is very antique.

Its environment is similar to Yanmo City, which is also in the city, but it is different.

Tetsuya first found a quiet place in the suburbs and took the electric dragon back. After all, the ability of the heterochromatic elves to attract attention was too strong.

As soon as he entered Platycodon City, he was first attracted by a three-story tower.

The purple tower was swaying as if it would collapse any moment, but the people around it were walking around as usual.

This is the Trumpet Bud Tower, one of the famous attractions in Kikyo City.

This tower is built with a flexible structure, and it always sways as if it is about to fall, but in fact this more effectively avoids the impact of earthquakes and other disasters on the tower.

That is to say, only the disaster-prone area of ​​Johto has buildings specially designed to avoid earthquake disasters, and other areas will not consider this.

How much energy and cost can an elf spend building a house?

According to legend, the trumpet bud was built with a trumpet bud over 30 meters high to build the central column of the tower, and then construction was carried out on the outside.

If this legend is true, Tetsuya can only think that this trumpet bud is an individual after dynamism, otherwise he cannot imagine how the trumpet bud with an average height of only 0.7m can grow to over 30 meters tall.

This height is a bit outrageous.

After looking across the small lake in front of the tower, Zheya saw the monks walking inside, but did not choose to go in and visit.

It is said, and it is only said that the reason why the monks who use the Trumpet Buds have been living in the Tower of Trumpet Buds is not only to provide shelter for some wandering elves, but also to suppress the elves buried under the Tower of Trumpet Buds.

The resentful soul.

In other words, the existence of the Trumpet Bud Tower is more like the Pokémon Tower in Kanto's Aster Town, except that this cemetery is not open to the public.

Of course, this rumor has never been confirmed.

However, there are occasional reports of people being tricked by ghosts and other elves in the Tower of Trumpet Bud, so many people firmly believe it.

Although Tetsuya is not afraid of ghosts - after all, there are ghost elves in this world, and the so-called ghosts are basically ghost elves playing tricks on people, but he is not interested in actively looking for "ghosts" to play with.

You must know that sometimes the tricks played by ghost elves can really kill people.

The only thing he was curious about was that with the appearance of ghost elves, it must be a fact that there were a large number of dead elves buried in the Tower of Trumpet Bud.

So, what kind of things were discovered in the past that caused so many elves to be buried under the Tower of Trumpet Bud.

I don’t know why, in the Johto area, although humans and elves now live in harmony, the conflict between the two in the past was more severe than in any other area.

Soon, Zheya smiled and turned around to leave.

What does this have to do with him? It's none of his business anyway.

What Tetsuya didn't know was that during the time he approached and left the Trumpet Bud Tower, the monks in the tower were extremely nervous.

"Has the guy calmed down?"

A monk dressed very simply asked with sweat all over his head.

Judging from his appearance, he should be over seventy years old.

Even in the Pokémon world, where longevity is common, this age is not considered young.

But at this time, his image was not as leisurely and content as that of ordinary old people.

"Yes, calmed down."

Next to him, another middle-aged monk in his thirties or forties also replied with the same sweaty expression.

"Okay, okay."

The old monk breathed out a sigh of relief.

"Why did it suddenly hit the seal?"

Faced with the old monk's question, the younger monks in the surrounding circle certainly didn't know how to answer.

The person in front of me is the abbot of the Trumpet Bud Tower. He is the longest surviving and most experienced monk in this tower.

If he didn't know it, then it would be even more impossible for young people like them to know it.

"Forget it, forget it."

Facing the silence, the host sighed helplessly.

"Song, take a few disciples and go underground to reinforce it before it breaks out."

If any outsiders heard what the host said at this time, they would be extremely shocked.

In everyone's mind, the Trumpet Tower is the simplest three-story tower. There is no underground structure, because it is not conducive to resisting earthquakes.

But according to the host, there is a deep secret hidden under the Trumpet Bud Tower.

"yes."

The monk named Kong bowed and then led several young disciples out of the room.

"I hope it will subside for a while after this impact."

The host looked at the disciples leaving and thought silently.

But he couldn't understand why the impact pattern that the seal below had been following for hundreds of years suddenly changed today.

If he hadn't been abiding by his master's teachings and sitting in the center of the seal, then maybe today would be the day the guy below was released from the seal.

Soon, as the host was thinking silently, the room became quiet again.

The bustling crowd outside may never know what is happening in the Tower of Trumpet Buds just around the corner.

"Then thank you, Miss Joy."

At this time, the innocent Tetsuya was going through the formalities for the gym challenge at the Elf Center.

After he took back his Elf Guide, he returned to his temporary residence with the room key given by Miss Joy.

Although he is not short of money now, and Platycodon City is famous for various B&Bs, he still prefers to live in the Elf Center.

Probably because he likes the atmosphere here very much.

"bite--"

As soon as I walked in, a message came from my watch.

Zheye raised his hand and saw that there were two of them.

The first one was an unexpected message that the challenge application was approved, and the second one was a message sent to him by Sutian, who he hadn't contacted for a long time.

"Tetsuya boy, you are coming to Johto, right? I saw your challenge message. Come over this afternoon. I will entertain you personally. I need your help with something by the way."

Seeing this message, Tetsuya certainly understood why his application was approved so quickly.

Who knows that the current owner of the Platycodon Gym is his senior brother Ah Si's close friend Su Tian? This is just another back door.

But why again?

After politely replying to Suten's message, Tetsuya simply cleaned up and walked out of the room.

In fact, he didn't expect that Su Tian, ​​who had been outside and could be described as "wandering", would actually stay in the gym during this period.

You know, as a super trainer who specializes in flying, Sutian is a believer in "freedom".

For him, not being able to take his elves with him to understand the sky everywhere is simply a life-threatening matter.

"Hmm, maybe it has something to do with Senior Brother Ah Si returning to the city recently?"

Tetsuya walked out of the Elf Center, thinking as he rushed to the Platycodon Gym.

If this is true, then the friendship between these two is really deep.

Don't get me wrong, it's just pure friendship. Both of these two already have one and only one wife, and Sutian also has a son.

That is Asu, the future platycodon gym leader, who is also a very powerful flying trainer.

When Tetsuya watched the anime in his previous life, he had a rather deep impression of this character.

Walking along the city's main road towards the city center, he soon came to a building with a spiral appearance.

This is the location of the Platycodon Gym.

It's on the top floor of this strange building.

As a flying gym, the most special design of Platycodon Gym is probably its geographical location.

Since it is on the top floor and there is no roof, flying Pokémon can maximize their abilities here.

Walking all the way up, Zheya soon saw Suten who was dressed in a familiar style.

It has to be said that it is indeed reasonable for Suten to be rated as one of the most attractive men in the Johto area.

The pilot's attire and the toothpick in his mouth, this bohemian feeling and the slightly inferior face of Tetsuya, can be called an all-ages kill.

Not to mention his powerful trainer ability and temperament brought by his rich experience.

"Good afternoon, Suten-senpai." Tetsuya greeted him respectfully.

"Hey, don't be so polite. When you come to the Platycodon Gym, you will treat it as your own home."

Sutian put his big hand around Zheye's shoulders and said very proudly.

Tetsuya is quite grateful to Suten because he really helped him a lot last time in Qianhong City.

"Well, is there something wrong with Senior Sutian calling me here in such a hurry this time?"

The two of them walked into the depths of the Kikyo Gym while communicating, and Tetsuya raised his doubts to Suten.

"Well, it's no big deal. I remember you have a flying-type bird, right?"

Suten looked around and did not respond directly to Tetsuya's question immediately.

"Well, yes."

Although he was confused, Zheya still nodded honestly.

"How about we have a battle first?"

Sutian suddenly challenged him to fight.

"Ah?" Zheya subconsciously made a confused cry.

"Forget it, let me just say it directly."

Sutian, who was not good at asking for help, decisively gave up the circuitous route he had planned.

"That's right, you know I have a son, right."

Facing Tetsuya's confused look, Suten explained why he wanted Tetsuya to come.

To put it bluntly, I just feel sorry for the parents in the world.

In Tetsuya's impression, Asu is indeed a pretty good flying trainer. Being able to take over the Platycodon Gym in the future and run it well (with many gym apprentices) will also prove his ability.

But the personality aspect is not so satisfactory.

In Sutian's view, his son's attitude and understanding of elf training are quite problematic.

However, as a father who is away from home all year round, Su Tian's image in Asu's mind and the credibility of his words are really limited, and the relationship between the two is not good.

Sutian thought that Zheya, who was almost the same age, should be able to teach Asu a good lesson.

"lesson?"

Zheya was also stunned when he heard Suten's statement.

"Yes, if you defeat him head-on, doesn't that prove that his training method is wrong?"

Su Tian said very matter-of-factly.

Zheya blinked and didn't understand.

He probably knows why the relationship between Asu and his father is not so good.

In addition to Su Tian's long-term absence from home, his unconventional personality is probably also a big factor.
