Pokémon: Trainers start as bounty hunters

Tetsuya subconsciously raised the watch in his hand and started recording.

If nothing else happens, this will be the fourth place in the elf world where the "carp leaping over the dragon's gate" scene has been discovered.

The other three are in Orange Islands, Hoenn and United.

"Where did these Carp Kings come from?" Xiaogang asked as he observed the Carp Kings.

Although Magikarp is a Pokémon that can be seen everywhere, the fact that it appears in groups in this waterhole is surprising enough.

Nobuhiko sighed at the side: "This is probably the magic of elves."

Even the most authoritative elf doctor would not dare to judge why these Magikarp gathered here.

Perhaps it is the fluctuation of the light of evolution, or perhaps it is the instinct deep in the body.

They gather here from countless underground rivers.

"Look at that."

Zhe did not participate in the discussion between the two. Instead, he held up his watch with one hand and pointed to a certain location of the waterfall with the other hand and made an excited sound.

Nobuhiko and Xiaogang looked in the direction of his finger.

A touch of gold mixed with red looks so bright.

"It's the Flashing Magikarp!"

Both of them expressed a certain amount of surprise.

But that's all.

After research, the occurrence rate of heterochromatic elves has been stable at about one in 100,000. This is true regardless of the type of elves.

This leads to the fact that among the countless elves like Magikarp, there are not many shining individuals, after all, the base number is there.

If you might not be able to find a Shining Elf in a large forest, then you can definitely find a Shining Magikarp in a large lake.

It’s not surprising to see the Flashing Carp King in the Dragon Gate.

But for an elf like Magikarp, even if it is shiny, its value is limited.

Mostly because the color of glitter is generally golden yellow, it is sought after by the rich.

The most common end result is that they become ornamental pets kept in bathtubs.

Who said that flash has nothing to do with whether it can evolve into Gyarados?

As long as he cannot evolve into Gyarados, Magikarp is undoubtedly one of the weakest spirits.

Many people don't even think of Flash Magikarp as a Shiny Elf. They feel that this lowers the rarity and style of the Alien Elf.

Besides, I have never heard of anyone breeding Flash Magikarp into Flash Gyarados.

The probability of Magikarp evolving into Gyarados is already low, and Flash evolution is even more difficult.

The number of Flash Magikarp is large compared to the number of other types of Elf Flashes, but compared to the overall number, it is still insignificant.

Therefore, people still don’t know what color Gyarados is.

Tetsuya did know that it was red, the same as the red Gyarados that was Team Rocket's experimental subject that Watanabe was currently pursuing.

But the two are vastly different.

The normal red Gyarados evolved from the golden Magikarp, and the red of its scales is its own red;

As for the experimental subject, the red on its body is the red of Magikarp, which is a defect that is not considered a defect due to forced evolution.

Although they have become rare elves with different colors, for any elves with their own thinking, they are not happy that their body color is different from that of their own race.

Maybe sometimes this different coloration will make them popular with their own kind, but more often they will be ostracized.

I saw that the golden carp had just rushed up the waterfall and swam upward for about one-fifth of the distance before being unable to continue.

The falling water pushed it down hard.

The fate of the surrounding common Magikarp is similar to it.

After resting for a while, they charged towards the waterfall again.

"What an admirable spirit." Nobuhiko sighed.

As a fighter, he admired this scene from the bottom of his heart.

"Just being energetic is useless." Zheye shook his head.

Although a little too direct, what he said is also true.

In his field of vision, it was visible to the naked eye that the height reached by the Magikarp who launched the second and third attacks did not make a huge breakthrough compared to the first time.

Not to mention the 456th time after their exhaustion, the height they rushed to was lower and lower each time.

The most typical one is the golden Magikarp.

Because its color is so bright, Zheye's eyes are attracted to it from time to time.

But the best one was only about one-third of the way, with a full two-thirds of the distance left.

That is the chasm between Magikarp and Gyarados.

Xiaogang stared at it closely.

"What? Do you want to conquer me?"

Tetsuya read his thoughts from his body's reaction.

"A bit." Xiaogang did not deny it.

His mother Xiaomi is a very good water-type trainer, so he is quite familiar with the water-type elves.

In his opinion, this golden Magikarp has good potential.

He also wanted to try to see if he could breed the world's first Gyarados.

Although he is the heir to the rock-type gym, due to his father's strict wife-keeping nature, cultivating water spirits is not a big deal.

Tetsuya glanced at the panel given by Zero.

Flash Magikarp's qualifications are elite, and it is indeed possible to evolve into Gyarados.

How high the qualifications are does not mean that one can reach that level 100%. Many other factors will also affect it, including but not limited to the efforts of the elf.

After evolving into Gyarados, its qualifications will be greatly improved, at least to the level of a quasi-King. If you are lucky and add some water stones, it will not be unrealistic to become a King.

This would be impossible for ordinary elves, but it would be normal for Magikarp and Ugly Fish.

Compared to them, Gyarados and Menas are concepts from another level of life.

But even so, Tetsuya has no interest in this Flashing Magikarp.

He doesn't like such an overly iron-headed elf.

In his opinion, the best way to deal with Yuelongmen, besides being strong yourself, is to need the help of fellow clan members.

If these carp kings work together, it is very likely that a few individuals will appear across the dragon gate.

Unfortunately, out of the desire for their own evolution, no Magikarp is willing to sacrifice himself to fulfill other elves.

It is powerful and easy to understand.

Magikarp is weak, but there is also a Magikarp who can reach the top of a mountain in one leap.

Compared with similar creatures that can only jump two meters high out of the water, such a being is undoubtedly the "strongest" among Magikarp - even if it jumps high, its combat effectiveness is still approximately 0.

For such a Magikarp, it is not very difficult to jump over the dragon gate, and the evolved Gyarados must also be very powerful.

Tetsuya believes that with the qualifications of this golden carp king, it is not impossible for it to do this, but it will only take time and continuous training.

The best thing to do is to give up this opportunity to jump over the Dragon Gate for the time being and wait until you become stronger before coming back.

But Xiaogang doesn't think so.

In his eyes, this Carp King has a very tough character and has very rare rock-type characteristics. It is a very excellent water elf individual.

This probably comes down to personality issues between different people.

Elves and trainers have always had a relationship of mutual choice. In most cases, if they are not compatible, they cannot become partners.

The combination of chatterbox and social anxiety is not ruled out, but under normal circumstances it is difficult for the two to get along.

Taking Tetsuya as an example, most of his elves have a cunning character, which is not unrelated to his personal temperament.

Even the calmest Pangyan Monster occasionally shows his liveliness.

For Xiaogang, tenacity and stability are synonymous with him - please be sure to ignore his style when facing Joey, it may have been taken away from him.

This iron-headed golden Magikarp suits him very well.

However, Xiaogang did not choose to disturb the Golden Carp King at this time and said that he wanted to conquer it and become its trainer.

He decided to wait until today's Yuelongmen is over before talking about it.

The moon gradually climbed higher into the sky, and its light became even brighter.

More than two hours have passed, and still no Magikarp has successfully jumped over the dragon gate.

"It's time." Nobuhiko said quietly as he sat cross-legged on a huge rock.

Following his words, another batch of new Magikarp kings joined the attack.

But compared with the previous similar ones, most of the newly appeared Magikarps reached one-third position in the first impact.

This is the ultimate height that the Flashing Magikarp can reach.

The long beards indicate the age of these Magikarp. They are all guys who have lived a long time.

And these are the main forces of Yuelongmen.

The red further covers the light blue waterfall, which appears clearly defined under the moonlight.

From time to time, two or three Magikarp would break out of the large group and swim higher, but they would soon be captured by the current.

They are still too weak in the face of the power of nature.

But soon, many Carp King chose the method that Tetsuya just thought of.

I saw several groups consisting of a dozen carp kings separated from the main force and began to attack.

With less than subtle coordination, they managed to cover quite a distance.

Beside the pool, Tetsuya fixed the watch on its round head, ignoring Bogaman's expression.

I stretched lazily, and the time had already reached one or two in the morning before I knew it.

Coupled with the fierce battle just now, Zheya only felt a dull pain in his head.

"What time does it usually take to jump over the Dragon Gate?"

He looked at Xiaogang who was attentive beside him and asked.

"Generally speaking, it's two or three in the morning. Every place is different every time. There is no definite time." Xiaogang replied.

He knew that Zhe also had nothing to say to cheer him up: "Why don't you take a rest first?"

"Forget it, let me wait with you. Besides, we have to see a Gyarados evolve."

Tetsuya yawned very helplessly.

Even if new and more powerful Magikarp were added, and even if various methods were used, no Magikarp managed to reach the top of the waterfall and evolve into Gyarados.

"It's too difficult to jump over the Dragon Gate." He complained.

With so many Magikarp, he felt that he would normally have to have one or two.

"The Magikarp who evolved after leaping through the dragon gate will be stronger than the normal evolution, so it's normal." Xiaogang was very calm.

His understanding of this scene is quite profound.

Coupled with his interest in the golden carp, Xiaogang seemed to be in high spirits.

As for Nobuhiko, he had already gone back to his tent to sleep.

In his words, he will stay here for a long time anyway, so I'll just watch it next time when I'm in the mood.

Only Tetsuya, who didn't know what to do and wanted to witness the miracle, was left struggling to support himself.

The moon moves on again.

The moonlight shining on the waterfall is getting less and less.

The Magikarps are also getting more and more crazy.

"Wake up, wake up."

Half asleep and half awake, Zheya felt that his body was constantly vibrating.

Opening his eyes in a daze, it was Xiaogang.

"What's wrong?" He was a little confused.

"roar--"

The violent cry answered Zheye's question on Xiaogang's behalf.

He trembled all over and looked towards the end of the waterfall above with wide eyes.

A blue Gyarados bathed in the silver moonlight was stretching its body and roaring loudly.

The powerful momentum brought up layers of water splashes.

Then came the second one, the third one...

Under the light of the moon, five Magikarps evolved into Gyarados in the white light.

They stand like pillars high above the water.

Picking up Bogaman who was also sleepy, Zhe also pointed his watch at this scene with great interest.

This is quite a rare sight.

The silvery white moonlight gradually disappeared on the waterfall, and the Carp Kings returned to their normal state, submerging themselves into the water in groups.

Xiaogang hurriedly ran towards the Golden Carp King.

If Zhe saw it correctly, that shiny guy seemed to be... seducing an ordinary female Magikarp with a white beard??

"It's really a perfect match."

Tetsuya, who was extremely sleepy, complained, turned off his watch, and immediately carried Bogaman into the sleeping bag.

"Boga"

Suddenly being restrained, Bogaman subconsciously tightened his body.

But feeling the somewhat reassuring atmosphere, Bogaman, who had always lived as an elf, settled down for the first time in a long time.

"wave~"

It opened its small mouth and bubbled into sleep.

...

"Hiss, it's so cold."

The next morning, Zheya was awakened by a feeling of wetness.

When he opened his eyes, he saw water and foam from Bogaman's breath hitting his face.

Combined with the surrounding environment, Zheya still felt chilly even though it was summer.

"Boga"

Feeling the dissipation of Zheye's breath, Bogaman also opened his eyes alertly.

"Good morning." Zhe also greeted.

His body was used to getting up so early, so he wasn't too tired.

On the other side, Nobuhiko started his training early - taking the elves to enjoy the impact under the waterfall.

"Boga"

Bogaman also responded energetically.

"For today, let's take advantage of this time to go up there and take a look."

After washing, Zheya threw Bi Diao's Poke Ball casually.

Yesterday, he wanted to see the scenery above the waterfall, but he didn't do it due to the progress of Yuelongmen. Naturally, he wanted to explore it carefully today.

He was very curious about what circumstances led to the birth of the phenomenon of Leaping Dragon Gate.

There might be some weird stuff on it.

Bogaman followed Tetsuya and climbed onto Big Eagle's back with his calves. The same action was taken by the small Ice Vulpix.

The rest of the partners started their daily practice.

With the protection of Bi Diao, they are not worried about Zheya being in any danger.

It’s just that the expression of the flame chicken is a little subtle.

"beep"

The bird flapped its wings and flew high into the sky.

"Boga"

Bogaman's face suddenly froze.

He didn't think about it just now and just followed Tetsuya, but now the sudden feeling of weightlessness and the fear caused by the high altitude made his legs start to tremble.

“Kai Keou”

The Ice Vulpix walked up and down on Bi Diao's back as if walking on flat ground, surrounding Pogaman and began to laugh at this new partner.

Of course, it didn't forget to teach the other party how to maintain balance.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Tetsuya's big hands covered Bogaman's head.

It sounds like it's his problem as well. Going to bed late last night still had some impact.

"How about asking Bi Diao to let you down first?"

Seeing Pogaman showing no improvement, Zhe Ye said this.

“Boga Boga”

Bogaman struggled and shook his head.

Isn't it just flying? It's trivial, trivial.

There were faint drops of water flashing in its eyes.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long.

After all, if it weren't for the passengers on its back, it would take less than a second for the bird to fly 100 meters.

With its help, Zheya and the two little guys quickly arrived at the top of the waterfall.

As far as the eye can see, there is a long river that comes from nowhere.

There is very normal land on both sides of the river.

Everything is so ordinary.

As soon as the sculpture landed on the ground, Pogaman couldn't wait to jump down.

It vowed not to fly next time.

"Come on, little guy, help me see what's in the river."

Tetsuya, who was exploring on land, asked Bogaman to jump into the river and see the scene at the bottom of the river.

For Bogaman, who is good at swimming, the water flow of the waterfall is easily overcome as long as it is not extremely close to a cliff.

"Boga"

Of course Pogaman refused to let him go. He patted his chest with his little hands and jumped into the river.
