Elves: The initial Pokémon is Yagumon

Chapter 243 Cactus Beast Advanced Land (two chapters in one)

"Forehead……"

Qingliu pondered for a moment, and then asked with a hint of uncertainty: "Although I don't know what you want to do with the exchange, it seems that I can get the badge without the exchange... right?"

"But that would take some time, wouldn't it?"

"I think... there shouldn't be much time wasted, and I will end the battle soon."

Seeing Qingliu say this in an unusually calm manner, Donggua and Piaotai father and son looked at each other with complicated and awkward expressions.

Cai Zhong caressed his forehead in embarrassment.

Although I know that Qingliu probably misunderstood her meaning, but even so, such an understatement of "beating the three of you gym trainers will not take much time for me" is somewhat poignant.

"Cough cough..."

Caizhong clenched his hands into a fist and put it next to his mouth, coughing twice: "I'm not talking about the time of defeat, I'm talking about other times."

"Other times?"

Qingliu glanced around, thoughtful.

"You should have noticed too."

Returning to the topic, Cai Zhong said slowly: "As you said just now, first of all, these [-] Pokémon that have been eroded by the strange black energy need to contact Miss Junsha to control their actions, and then report to the alliance. Send professional counterpart researchers to conduct testing and identification.

"Although we can't play a role in this kind of matter, as the parties and direct witnesses, the three of us will definitely be inseparable for a while, and the EMI Forest... Well, it was destroyed like this, even if There are very legitimate reasons, and we need to make a reasonable explanation, which will take a lot of time.

"Furthermore, the three of us didn't carry our badges with us. It would take time to run back and forth or have someone send them over. With all the things put together, the delay should be more than just a moment."

Qingliu heard this and fell into deep thought.

Indeed, as Cai Zhong said, it would be fine if it was a relatively "common" evil organization attack or sabotage activity, but the problem involved this time can't even display the information directly on the panel, which shows that the problem is not simple.

The more difficult things are, the more difficult and time-consuming it will be to deal with. There is only more than one month left before the opening of the Lily of the Valley Conference, which is not very sufficient.

Moreover, he also heard some other meanings from Cai Zhong's words.

From the beginning to the end, I, the "main participant", did not appear in Cai Zhong's words. When Cai Zhong came over just now, what I said was to leave all the problems to them.

Obviously, compared to the three badges, the exchange made by the other party is actually to help oneself solve these complicated and trivial matters.

"Because I was still challenging gyms to collect badges in the last period of time before the opening of the Lily of the Valley Conference, and I didn't prepare for the battle, so it is judged that I need to hurry up."

Qingliu spoke slowly in a voice that only she could hear, and then looked at Cai Zhong.

Compared with the father and son of Winter Melon and Piaotai who only have fossil digging in their minds, Cai Zhong does seem normal and much smarter. It is indeed much easier to solve the problem with such a person.

"Since you don't have a badge on your body, how can I get a badge?"

Qingliu asked.

When Cai Zhong heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

Skip the topic that was originally being exchanged and directly enter the final option of the original topic, which shows that Qingliu has indirectly agreed with her suggestion.

"You can rest assured about this. We will send the badges to the registration center on Linglan Island. You only need to bring the other five badges to register."

Qingliu nodded, and then asked: "Then, tell me what you want to do with the exchange you mentioned just now?"

After the words fell, Cai Zhong's eyes turned to the cactus beast next to him in an instant, and the brown pupils shone with scorching light.

Feeling this fiery sight, the cactus beast was a little scared.

It had only seen this kind of look in the eyes of those Digimons who wanted to prey on it before coming to this place, but it didn't know that the petite human being in front of him, who might not even be able to resist its punch, wanted to what.

Especially after the other party watched him peeking past him, he seemed even more excited.

This appearance made the cactus beast slowly move its body and hide behind Qingliu, but the three-meter-long figure was not very well covered.

Qingliu, who has an impression of Caizhong, saw this scene and said, "I know that Miss Caizhong likes grass-type Pokémon very much. I also talked about wanting to collect all grass-type Pokémon in the world before, but the cactus beast It is my very important companion, if I take it away or exchange it, I will not agree."

"Green Willow..."

The cactus beast looked at the side face of the person in front of it, with tears in its empty eyes.

[Race] Cactus Beast

[Intimacy] 60 → 80 (grateful and fond of you for being able to value it from the bottom of your heart)
After hearing Qingliu's words, Cai Zhong waved his hands again and again: "No, no, no, no."

After all, Caizhong sighed heavily, and said with a complicated expression: "Although I like it very much, when you fought against Ms. Juye last time, its explosive fighting power has completely surpassed mine.

"Even... even if you are really willing to give it to me, I won't take it. I don't want to be an obstacle to the growth of this rare grass-type Pokémon that I have never seen before, and I can see that it likes you very much. of."

The green face of the cactus beast flushed suddenly, and in order to avoid being discovered, it silently turned its back.

After noticing the cactus beast's mood, Qingliu looked back at Caizhong.

Since the other party wasn't for the cactus beast, what else could it be for?
After the other party confessed everything, Qingliu raised his eyebrows a little weirdly.

"You mean to say, after I have attended the Lily of the Valley Conference, I will find time to come to EMI Gymnasium to be your gym trainer for a few days?"

Caizhong nodded again and again: "Yes... the salary is the same as mine, and it will not exceed a week at most, and it won't take much of your time. I will be back soon."

"why?"

Although gym trainers go out, it is very common to hand over the gym to a trustworthy person to take care of it, but it seems that he and the other party have only just been in contact, such a request makes Qingliu a little confused.

"Because I don't have a trainer with a very good grass-type Pokémon around me, except for me, there are basically children in the gym, and they don't have the ability to compete in the gym. So far, only you meet the requirements."

"Give me the substitute, aren't you afraid that I'm actually a bad guy?"

Qingliu asked curiously.

Cai Zhong immediately replied seriously: "I believe that a person who can like and be liked by grass-type Pokémon will not be a bad person no matter what."

"..."

Qingliu fell into a long silence.

Seeing Qingliu's appearance, Cai Zhong was afraid that he would not agree, so he hurriedly continued: "In addition to what I said before, I can teach you another method that can improve the strength of cactus beasts."

"Oh?"

Qingliu suddenly became interested.

Although he would agree to save time without adding this condition, it would be better if he added something useful to him.

Seeing the news of Qingliu's intentions, Caizhong took a deep breath and said seriously: "When the cactus beast fought against Ms. Juye's ivory pig, it used five grass-type moves to absorb all the vitality energy in the nearby 80-meter area into the body. On the top, a blow that is far more powerful than your own level, this should be a specially trained combination of moves?"

"That's right, it was discovered by chance."

Qingliu did not deny it.

Since the opponent has seen the video of the battle and is also a gym trainer proficient in grass, it is normal to analyze the number of moves of the cactus beast and know the operating principle.

"I have thought about a lot of move combinations before, but they are far from reaching this level."

Cai Zhong looked at Qing Liu again and again while talking: "I also saw the cactus beast used it once, but after a month or two, it seems that the range it can absorb has not been greatly improved?"

After hearing this, Qingliu nodded after being silent for a while.

Indeed, as Caizhong said, the level of cactus beasts has soared recently, but the "Great Desolation Classic" of the five move combinations has not followed the same progress.

When it first injected the morphological evolution potion, the range was 50 meters. Later, after evolving into a cactus beast, the range expanded to 80 meters, but until now it is only about 100 meters.

Such a range increase speed obviously cannot match the level increase speed.

To put it simply, it is gradually approaching the bottleneck period.

"Is there any way to solve it?"

"Have you ever tried to increase the number of moves and use more moves to cover more area?"

"Tried several times and failed."

Qingliu said slowly.

As a 21st century traveler, what he is best at is often not how to cultivate Pokémon, but how to use some things he has seen to make combinations and combinations of moves derived from mutations.

For example, in the first generation of Hokage in Naruto, the two moves of Senshouzhujian's Arrival of the Tree World and the Arrival of the Flower and Tree World, he tried to copy them during the bottleneck period of the cactus beast.

But without exception, the small-scale can do it, and the large-scale one can't do it at all.

If this is what Cai Zhong said about improving his strength, then there is a high probability that it will be in vain.

And when Qingliu roughly told some of the experience of the experiment, Cai Zhong's eyes sparkled with excitement again.

"It's all some very creative move combinations. I never thought of it. Qingliu actually has the potential to become a master of the grass system... Cough cough, I'm sorry."

After realizing that Cai Zhong coughed twice, he said again: "Grass-type Pokémon are generally related to plants, or are a type of plants themselves, and almost all of them have photosynthesis, that is, bask in the sun to absorb sunlight. Habits, you know all of these, right?"

"Ah."

"However, after my experience as a trainer for so long, as well as some botanists, grass-type trainers and some masters I have consulted before, I have come to a conclusion, just as I said just now. To say it is a Pokémon, it is better to say that it is a half-plant, half-Pokémon existence.

"Then if grass-type Pokémon are completely regarded as plants, then besides sunlight, what else do plants usually need to grow healthily and normally?"

Qingliu frowned and asked, "Soil?"

"Yes."

"Plants can directly absorb the water in the soil, and there are many things in the soil that are beneficial to plants, especially the combination moves of the cactus beast. It's very important."

"But whether it's Dr. Yamanashi's research institute or the EMI Forest, the quality of the soil should be above average, right?" Qingliu asked.

"But aren't they also supplying ordinary plants and ordinary Pokémon? A Pokémon whose root system is distributed in an area with a diameter of [-] meters should not be within their tolerance."

"Makes sense."

Qingliu nodded slowly when she heard the words, and then asked: "So...where is there soil that can meet the standards of the current cactus beast?"

Cai Zhong replied, "Huayuan Town."

Hearing this name, the information about the town in the travel book I read before came to Qingliu's mind.

Huayuan Town is a small town with a small population, but it is the place where most of the flowers and honey in the Sinnoh area are produced. Flowers are planted in almost all areas inside and outside the town. It can be smelled miles away from the town.

In such a place, the soil quality is indeed among the best in the Sinnoh area.

"When you get there, you can find the flower field where a kind of flower called Gracidia is located. This kind of flower has the highest requirements for soil and other aspects. It should be no problem to meet the needs of cactus beasts."

Qingliu silently memorized the name and appearance of the flower mentioned by Cai Zhong, and then took out the illustration book to search and confirm, then bowed slightly towards Cai Zhong.

"Miss Caizhong, thank you very much for the information and help you provided."

"Small things, just don't forget our agreement."

"No, I will come to EMI as soon as the Suzuran Conference is over."

Qingliu said solemnly.

"it is good."

Cai Zhong smiled and said, "Maybe at that time, the cactus beasts had already broken through to a level that shocked me."

"Will do."

After a simple handover and farewell, Qingliu stood on the shoulder of the mechanical tyrannosaurus, and then flew towards the sky.

Dong Gua looked at the figure that was about to disappear in the distance. After a long silence, he straightened his hair that was stained with plaster, and said, "Miss Caizhong, you have taken on a lot of trouble."

"As a gym trainer, don't you do all the troublesome things?"

Winter Melon was silent for a long while without responding.

After a long while, he said, "However, even if you don't have friends who are familiar with grass-type Pokémon, if you want to go out, you can lock up the gym for a few days, right? Why don't you ask him to come here instead?"

"Didn't you just say that you should be serious? How can you change your mind all of a sudden, and of course it's an excuse. I just want to see more cactus beasts." Cai Zhong replied with a smile.

"...The thing about going out is also fake?"

"Of course not. Seeing the cute cactus is one thing. On the other hand, I want to go to the back mountain of the Yamanashi Doctor's Institute. It's best to tame a Baru or cactus."

"Still not giving up?"

Cai Zhong nodded his head as a matter of course: "Of course, such a cute grass-type Pokémon can only be seen. If I can't hug and sleep every day, I will keep talking about it in the coffin when I die."

"The cactus beast should be covered in thorns, won't it hurt if you hug it to sleep? And..."

"what?"

"Miss Caizhong said that the exchange of the three badges did not seem to be discussed with me in advance, and even the proposed exchange is only for you... This is not very good."

"..."

Just thinking about the cactus beast and forgetting about it.

Caizhong: "Hehehe, let's continue discussing whether the cactus beast is comfortable to sleep with."
