Xiaozhi Reborn: Restarting the Journey

On the way to Crimson City, Xiaozhi and his friends passed through Black Cloud City. There are many factories in Black Cloud City, and the wind blowing from the sea smells of stinky mud, which affects the mood of travelers. But today it is already dark, Xiaozhi and his friends have to rest for one night in the Pokémon Center in Black Cloud City.

【Mission released, conquer Muddy.

Xiaozhi remembered the black sludge he won in the battle meeting on the Saint Anno in his backpack. It will be useful after conquering Muddy!

Xiaoxia read the description of Black Cloud City in the travel guide:"It says that Black Cloud City was prosperous because of the many factories, but it was also because the sewage and gas discharged by these factories polluted the sky and the ocean that it fell into decline."

Xiaogang said:"Isn't everything we see now a good proof of what is written in the book? Let's go to the Pokémon Center to rest first!"

After Xiaoxia handed the book in her hand to Xiaogang, she yawned loudly:"That's right! I really want to sleep in a comfortable bed!"

Pikachu also yawned loudly on Xiaozhi's shoulder. Xiaozhi touched Pikachu's head and said:"Xiaogang is right, let's go to the Pokémon Center to stay overnight!"

Xiaozhi and his party arrived at the Pokémon Center more than ten minutes later. Just as Xiaozhi and his friends put their backpacks down, the lights on their heads flashed a few times and dimmed.

Misty asked,"Is the power out?"

Brock groped his way to the switch in the dark and pressed the switch a few times, but it was still pitch black:"It looks like there's a power outage!"

Ash released Charmeleon and said,"Charmeleon, light up for us! Misty and Brock, it's okay for us to have a power outage, but it's not okay for the Pokémon that are being treated at the Pokémon Center."

Brock nodded,"That's right, we'll ask Miss Joy for the location of the power station, and then we'll go take a look!"

Misty said,"Then let's go!"

After Ash and the others asked Miss Joy for the address of the power station, they rushed over.

Misty said,"There's a big tree next to it, and there's a fire hydrant at the door. This is the power station."

Ash said,"Let's go in!"

After pushing the door open, it was also pitch black inside. Brock shouted,"Excuse me, is anyone there?"

After Brock's voice fell, there was only silence, and no response was received.

Misty waved at Charmeleon and said,"Charmeleon, come closer." Charmeleon raised the flame of its tail a little higher, and pointed to the floor plan on the wall and said,"Xiaozhi and Xiaogang, look, follow this road and you will reach the place marked as the central control room."

The three of them and Pikachu continued to walk along the road indicated on the wall. If it weren't for the flame of Charmeleon's tail, it would be pitch dark.

Suddenly, Misty was so scared that she grabbed the corner of Xiaozhi's clothes tightly:"Xiaozhi, I feel like something is following us."

Xiaogang turned around and looked, and there was nothing behind him except darkness:"Nothing! Are you feeling wrong, Xiaoxia?"

Xiaoxia confirmed:"I really feel that something is following us!"

Xiaozhi said:"I believe Xiaozhi." Xiaozhi looked at Pikachu on his shoulder and said:"Pikachu, do you feel anything?";

"Pikachu nodded. Pokémon's senses are much more sensitive than humans'. Ash's wave power also sensed that there were more than one Pokémon around him, but he was not sure whether it was Slim or Magnemite. Misty pointed behind Brock and said in horror:"Brock, behind you, behind you!"

Ash comforted Misty and said:"Don't be afraid, it's Magnemite." A floating Magnemite came in front of Ash and the others in the dark.

Misty breathed a sigh of relief:"It turned out to be Magnemite, I thought it was a ghost Pokémon!"

"Small magnet, small magnet......"Magnemite flew around Pikachu on Ash's shoulder for a few circles and said something.

"Pikachu nodded and pointed to the road ahead. Magnemite led the way.

Ash said,"Magnemite should be asking us to follow it!"

After walking a few steps, Misty said to Ash and Brock,"Do you smell any stinky smell?"

Brock nodded and said,"Yes!"

Ash also nodded. It looked like it was the Muds and the Muds.

The cover of the ventilation duct above his head fell to the ground with a loud noise. Many Muds and a Muds kept falling from the ventilation duct. With their arrival, the pungent smell in the air became stronger.

Brock and Misty stepped back a few steps, covering their mouths and noses. Brock said vaguely,"It's the smell of these Muds!"

Xiaozhi didn't retreat. He said,"The appearance of so many slimes may be related to them. Slimes are Pokémon born in mud. The ocean and sky of Black Cloud City are polluted, so these slimes are born. The mud pouring into the power station shows that the pollution of the ocean is already very serious!" Xiaozhi stepped forward and said,"Slimes, it's a battle to conquer you! If you lose, you can be my Pokémon!"

The Slimes pushed away the slimes and came to the front and waved to Xiaozhi. Xiaozhi smiled and said,"Okay, Pikachu, you go ahead! Use 100,000 volts!"

"Pikachu jumped down from Xiaozhi's shoulder and fired a 100,000 volt attack at Muddy.

Muddy survived Pikachu's 100,000 volt attack and used a sludge bomb on Pikachu.

"Pikachu, use Iron Tail after high speed movement!"

Pikachu used high speed movement to avoid the sludge bomb of Muddy Smelly. Pikachu approached Muddy Smelly and hit Muddy Smelly with Iron Tail.

Xiaozhi threw the Poké Ball at Muddy Smelly. The Poké Ball shook seven times and then stopped.

【Conquer the Muddy Muds and get 500 points.

Xiaozhi released the Muddy Muds:"Muddy Muds, take all the Muddy Muds away from the power station. They will be troubled if they continue to stay here."

Muddy Muds commanded the Muddy Muds to leave.

"Did you drive away the slime?"

Two middle-aged men in uniforms, led by Magneto and holding flashlights, found Xiaozhi and his friends. When they arrived, they saw that the slimes were leaving one after another. Xiaozhi said,"It's us. The most urgent thing now is to generate electricity, otherwise the injured Pokémon in the Pokémon Center cannot be treated!"

One of the middle-aged men said,"Okay, as long as the slime leaves, we can generate electricity!"

The two ran back to the central control room, and soon the power station restarted and the lights came on.

The matter was resolved safely, but there was one bad thing. Even if the slime was put into the Poké Ball, the smell was very pungent. Xiaozhi had no choice but to teleport the slime back to the Oak Research Institute and let Professor Oak think of a way. It was impossible to let the slime retreat when training with Xiaozhi and other Pokémon!

Xiaozhi and his friends, who rested for a night in the Pokémon Center, continued to go to the Crimson City.
