Pokémon: Trainers start as bounty hunters

The next day.

Tetsuya walked out of Zhenxin Town with fourteen Poke Balls on his body.

He is now more and more aware of the difference between games and reality.

In the game, you can raise thousands or hundreds of elves without worrying about consumption or consequences.

But reality doesn’t work.

Especially for trainers.

Leaving your elf to be taken care of by others will cause a lot of trouble.

It's okay for people like Tetsuya who take the elite route.

For those guys who want to catch an elf when they see one, they really can't do as they please if they don't have an evolution stone mine at home.

This is just about money.

Other issues such as bonding and training are the real headaches.

Unless, like Xiaozhi, you have someone like Dr. Oak as free labor.

That can relieve stress to a certain extent.

But cultivating the relationship between the two parties is ultimately a time-consuming and labor-intensive matter, and it is unlikely to be left to others.

Zhe also made a simple estimate.

Twenty-four hours a day, except for the six or seven hours he slept, he almost had to devote the rest of the time to these fourteen companions.

"It's really a huge challenge."

He showed a rather helpless smile.

There is no way, who makes Zheya prefer to stay in the wild.

Of course, the teleportation device can take turns exchanging partners for cultivation or training in the elf center in the city.

But it’s only limited to cities.

Once out in the wild, a portable two-way transmission device is a distant invention.

Instead of wasting time and energy on the road, you might as well find a way to take it with you.

"Bidiao, let's go!"

While thinking about it, he threw the elf ball, and Tetsuya jumped on Bi Diao's back.

"Beep——"

With a bird song.

Bi Diao took him up into the sky and flew to the west.

...

Johto, Asakusa City.

It’s still the Onion restaurant next to the port.

Zheya, who ordered a super luxurious fried rice set, sat in the corner and enjoyed the warm atmosphere.

"Why don't you say hello in advance when you come?"

Ami was holding a big bowl of noodles, looking very heroic.

I don’t know how my skinny body can eat so much and still not change.

Zheye spread his hands: "I'm just passing by, I have to report this."

"Of course." Ami said confidently, "The alliance has regulations. Powerful trainers entering from abroad must report to the city managers, otherwise conflicts and contradictions will easily occur, okay?"

That being said.

In fact, not many people implement this rule.

At least this is the case in Kanto and the city.

Everyone looks up and doesn't look down, and the relationship is actually quite good.

If you really come here with bad intentions, it is even more impossible to report in advance.

Zheye smiled hoarsely: "Okay, okay, then I'll treat you to this meal."

"You said it!" Ami's eyes lit up, and she reached out and slapped the table: "Kexia, give me two more ramen!"

"Hi, hi, hi, I understand, Teacher Ami!"

An energetic voice came from the back kitchen.

Zheye raised his eyebrows: "Is this... a new disciple?"

"That's right."

Ami nodded carelessly, "It's still in the assessment period, it depends on her performance."

"I will never let Teacher Ami down!"

Ke Xia suddenly appeared with a determined face: "Guest, this is your fried rice, please enjoy it slowly."

She placed a plate in front of Tetsuya that was one-third the size of her body.

The sailors around him remained silent and looked at the two big eaters on the table with admiration.

"Thanks."

Zheye seemed to be eating his food slowly and quickly, and the words in his mouth were still so clear: "It seems that what happened last time still has a certain impact on you."

Ami's hand froze as she ate the noodles, and then she nodded.

"Yeah." She said with a smile: "After that, I suddenly felt that I still need someone to inherit the Asakusa Gym, otherwise if something happens to me, everyone will be in a panic."

"really."

Zhe also agreed, "I just don't know if that child has this ability."

"There will be, Ke Xia is a very strong girl."

Ami's tone was still so gentle yet firm.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Are you going to Fengyuan to fight the autumn wind this time?"

She quickly changed the subject.

Zheye scratched his head: "No, did the news spread so fast?"

He felt something was not quite right.

Ami glanced at him with a smile in her eyes: "What do you think?

Kanto's super-genius star, a nineteen-year-old king-level trainer, is going to compete with the "seniors" in the official gym qualification competition in Hoenn.

This news can make many people excited."

"Excited?" Zheye raised his eyebrows and understood, "I think it's a scolding."

Although everyone is a member of the Elf Alliance.

But this does not mean that there is no friction between the two regions.

This is also unrealistic.

From the perspective of regional honor, wars of words have broken out between various regions more than once.

From "Which region has the strongest champion to (there is no champion in Kanto)" to "Ranking of talent among trainers in each region in the past ten years".

No matter which world you are in.

Anything related to rankings will always lead to a lot of "discussions".

There is no doubt about it.

Tetsuya's goal this time was fortunate enough to be included in the ranks of being "discussed".

In the Fengyuan area, most people still showed disdain on their faces.

The reasons are varied.

Including but not limited to classic trainer quotes such as "too young and not strong enough", "lack of experience and experience gap" and "you are 10,000 light years too early to challenge the famous king-level trainer".

Naturally, the Kanto side supported Tetsuya.

after all.

In terms of talent, achievements and abilities, Tetsuya is definitely the leader of the young generation in Kanto.

Although I was worried, I still cheered for him.

Zheye has been focusing on his own affairs recently, so he has naturally been slow to receive information from the outside world.

Actually.

After Kona found him and got a positive reply.

The Kanto Alliance has already begun operating related matters.

Most people would worry about Tetsuya's strength, but they wouldn't.

Whether it was the report from the Rangers Alliance, or the ability shown during the disaster in Nibi City and Hualan City.

Even among all the king-level trainers, Zheya can be regarded as the best.

If even this cannot successfully win the position of an official gym.

The strength of the Hoenn Alliance has long since become No. 1 among all regional alliances, and then it is the turn of the Kanto Alliance.

Ami said with a smile: "Yes, it has not been so lively for a long time.

The last time the two regions quarreled, it was because they were arguing about which one, Mr. Daigo or Mr. Du, was stronger."

Well...

Even from Tetsuya's point of view, it is an almost unsolvable problem.

Or rather.

At the regional championship level, who is stronger and who is weaker is just a matter of thought.

"That's it, it's so stressful."

Tetsuya said calmly, as if he was saying that he would eat three meals today.

Although it is not yet known that some powerful trainers will become his opponents.

But if he didn't even have this confidence, he might as well find a place to allocate a piece of land and start farming.

Ami held her head with both hands, her eyes sparkling: "I just have one request - let me know where you think you can be in the queue, and I can earn some pocket money for fun."

"Is there a handicap here?"

Tetsuya looked strange, "Is it opened by the alliance?"

"No." Ami shook her hand, "It's just a joke among the official gym leaders in our regions. Every time something happens, we all contact each other, which can be considered as a way to deepen our relationship."

Zheye nodded clearly to express his understanding.

In this case...

"Count me in when the time comes."

Those who have money but don’t earn it are fools.

Ami smiled happily.

Zhe also made an estimate.

Not just Ami.

Several other gym leaders I know should also be involved.

I just don’t know how many people are optimistic about him.

Needless to say, Nibi, Hualan, and Zhanlan are my family members.

You might think more about things like dead leaves and red lotus that are somewhere between familiar and unfamiliar.

A quick lunch fix.

Zheye paid for Ami who was still eating, and Shi Shiran walked out of the restaurant.

Arrive at the agreed port.

An extremely luxurious ship is waiting here quietly.

"Mr. Tetsuya." An old man dressed as a butler accurately found his target and came up to him, "The young master has given orders, please follow me."

"Trouble."

Zheye smiled and nodded at the other party, without any intention of confirming his identity, and just followed behind and boarded the ship.

Breaking Waves, a luxury liner in trial operation.

The benchmark is roughly the Santo Annuo in Kanto.

And its manufacturer is the famous Yuantian Group.

After the future Hoenn Battle Development Zone is built, this luxury liner will also assume part of the purpose of transporting powerful trainers.

Otherwise, how can we say that Yashida is rich?

Not just anyone has the financial resources to build several of the world's top luxury passenger ships for challengers.

There is no need to say more about the young master the old man in charge of the house calls.

It was Tatsuya Eda who had performed missions with Tetsuya before.

Although with his and Bi Diao's strength, flying all the way from Zhenxin in Kanto to the coastal city of Fengyuan is not a big problem.

But this is undoubtedly torturing myself.

Today's Tetsuya is not the newbie trainer who was scratching his head when he first debuted, wishing he could break one dollar into two dollars.

He just casually mentioned it in a group chat with friends, and someone he knew helped him solve the problem.

certainly.

This does not affect that this luxury liner trip is still free.

Tatsuya Eda said that the Wavebreaker happened to be going to Kaina City in Hoenn to deal with some matters, so it was a good idea to bring Tetsuya along with him.

As for whether something really happened, that's another matter.

Anyway, there were some guests on the trial run.

Come to the room.

The old housekeeper left a special way to contact him, bowed slightly and disappeared into the corridor.

Tetsuya really liked this feeling of freedom.

Release the friends and let them find a suitable place to spend the next few days.

He slumped on the balcony and basked in the sun.

"Tetsuya boy?"

A suspicious voice sounded.

An elegant middle-aged man next door waved to Tetsuya who opened his eyes.

"Uncle Chinatsu?"

The latter blinked and felt that the fate was not shallow.

If I remember correctly, the last time we met was in a similar situation, except that the ship was the St. Ann.

His eyes shifted to the other person's head, and he asked subconsciously: "Where did you get your hair extensions?"

Chinatsu Asakawa, who originally had a smile on her face, couldn't hold back anymore: "Why did you pick it up! This is how I am!"

His angry look was very similar to the time when other uncles laughed at him.

Two people who had not seen each other for more than two years soon became familiar with each other again.

"In recent times, your boy has made quite a lot of noise."

Asakawa Chinatsu looked at Tetsuya next door, her mouth full of admiration.

"Wherever there is."

The latter looked modest, "I only found out later that Uncle Qianxia, ​​you and Senior Laofu are both king-level trainers. They are really amazing."

"When these words come out of your mouth, I always feel a little strange."

Asakawa Chinatsu smacked her mouth, feeling quite uncomfortable.

He still remembers that when they first met, the young man next door seemed to him a potential junior.

Goodbye now.

He was immediately on an equal footing with him.

No matter how harsh the words were, Chinatsu Asakawa had no confidence in defeating this young man.

After all, the opponent's record is there.

"Tsk, the waves behind push the waves ahead. Young people nowadays are getting more and more powerful."

Chinatsu Asakawa sighed very much.

The two of them chatted naturally while looking at the sea.

As a trainer born in the Hoenn region (Asakawa Chinatsu's strongest spirit is a Lizard King).

Chinatsu Asakawa is very familiar with every corner of Hoenn.

Under his introduction, Tetsuya had a better understanding of Hoenn, who originally only limited to partial impressions and descriptions of past lives.

That's for sure.

Among the four nearby regions, the environment and climate of the Hoenn region must be the most complex.

This also resulted in its rather complicated distribution and survival of elves.

And this kind of environment has unparalleled appeal to most adventurous trainers.

"I'm not kidding.

The experience and experience of trainers in the wild adventures of the Hoenn region are absolutely unmatched by trainers from other places."

Chinatsu Asakawa is very proud.

Zheye nodded.

Indeed it is.

This is a conclusion supported by data.

It is very common for trainers from different regions to be good at different things.

"By the way, do you still want to travel to Fengyuan this time?

Although you are a king-level player, at your age, it seems appropriate to take the opportunity to cultivate a second or third team or something.

As young people, it’s always good to experience more things while you’re young.”

Asakawa Chinatsu said with a smile.

Zheye was silent for a moment: "Well...

This time, I went to participate in the qualifying competition.

Uncle Qianxia, ​​don’t you know?”
