He knows Pokémon better than me.

Of course, back inside the lighthouse, Ash was unaware of the inner turmoil of the man outside.

As soon as they got home, Pikachu ran into the room and settled down comfortably on Hikari's bed.

"Bea?"

Baby Dragon jumped onto the floor and curiously looked around the room.

Or scratch the furniture with its claws, or gnaw on the wooden box with its mouth.

"Uh, just remember not to breathe fire!"

Xiao Zhi thought about it and decided to give a reminder anyway.

The houses in Xicui are all made of wood. If Baby Dragon uses the sparks recklessly, the fire could spread and burn down most of the village.

He sat in front of the woodpile in the living room, took out his luggage, and calculated the gains from this trip.

Several hundred master seeds were collected, filling the small cloth bag to the brim.

"That's more than enough to divide!"

Xiao Zhi was satisfied, having taken what he needed and also returned some to Xiao Guang.
There are still enough to share with his relatives, friends, and seniors whom he met in the Sinnoh region.

"Dr. Yamanashi, Ms. Chika, Mr. Ooha, oh, and Shinji, Jun, and the others."

He intends to spread his mastery of moves throughout the Sinnoh region!

Of course, the biggest reward of this trip was the hatching of the baby dragon!

Ash laughed and grabbed the Pokémon that was scratching the iron pot, then hugged it and stroked it vigorously.

The body of the dragon is not rough; on the contrary, it has some of the gentleness of bird Pokémon.
It possessed impressive combat skills even from birth.
"My precious dragon, I'm going to give you some special training soon!"

Pseudo-legendary Pokémon grow slowly, and only when they evolve to their final form do they experience a breakthrough in their combat power.

We must close the gap with young talents like Teng Cu and Xiong Tudi as soon as possible.

He was planning to make his baby dragon—no, I mean, Salamence—the main force of his Galar team!

"Aww~!"

Baby Dragon immediately grinned, broke free, and landed on the ground, letting out a hoarse cry, eager to try.

Even surging evil energy gathers in its mouth, and a powerful evil wave will roar out in the next second.

Ash immediately covered Bagon's mouth, otherwise the ceiling would have been blown open with a huge hole.

Boom boom!

The next second, Baby Dragon's eyes widened as it collapsed to the ground, the Evil Pulse exploding in its mouth and filling the air with gunpowder smoke!

This human trainer seems even more ruthless.
"Oh, right, and this scale armor too."

Looking at the baby dragon's exposed belly, Ash couldn't help but poke at the dark red scales covering it.

Surprisingly, even with Groudon "holding them back," Bellatrix was able to master special flying maneuvers.

"Perhaps, we could let Bagon try training Groudon's special moves?"

Ash thought to himself, "This piece of scale that Kyogre tore off isn't some thousand-year-old family heirloom; if it were, almost all the energy would be lost."
The scales, peeled and used immediately, still contain a rich energy of the earth god!

With a little effort, Rock Blades might all evolve into Cliff Blades!

After taking inventory and carefully putting everything away, Xiao Zhi rubbed his stomach and couldn't help but look towards the door.

I wonder when Xiaoguang will come back.
He's from out of town, and he can't even afford to buy taro cakes.

"Disguise myself as a member of Team Galactic? Uh, never mind."

Xiao Zhi shook his head. Putting aside the possibility of being recognized by others, that strange boss just didn't seem like a simple person. He'd better just grab something quick and easy.

So, as dusk approached, he went to the Ginkgo Chamber of Commerce's headquarters next door and had a meal with the president, Yin Ren.

Of course, Wang Luo then joined them at the dinner table, bombarding them with questions and trying to extract knowledge from their minds.
Meanwhile, Xiaoguang was still on the Qunqing Coast.

Although the volcanic eruption has ended, a large number of Team Galactic members are still needed on-site to provide assistance.

This is another great opportunity to win over the Pearl Team and the King Kong Team!
"Defog!" "Defog!" "Defog!"

The Pokémon sent by Bellila are in position and are continuously using defogging moves along the shore to break through the volcanic ash.

Such a volcanic eruption is expected to leave ash covering the Xicui area for several months.
However, if defogging techniques are used extensively and the fog is cleared manually, the sky east of Tianguan Mountain should be clear again in a few weeks.

Of course, besides the issue of the natural environment, there are also wild Pokémon.

Due to the volcanic eruption, many wild Pokémon also rioted.

Evil, fiery beasts also took the opportunity to run down from the mountains, abducting boys and girls and dragging them back to their caves.
What's needed right now is a powerful trainer to pacify these Pokémon.

Undoubtedly, Xiaoguang is the most experienced one.

So Dawn released all her Pokémon and used force to temporarily suppress the dangerous Pokémon around her.

Even at night, she disguised herself as a harmless homeless traveler, letting two lewd and fiery beasts carry her back to their cave lair as a sting operation.

Upon arriving at their destination, Xiao Guang immediately stood up, released his Pokémon, and gave all the Typhlosion a sound beating.

The green Pokémon seems a bit abnormal!

This cannot be left unattended.

So Xiao Guang put on a stern face, erected a stone slab on the wall and carved a pattern, giving these emerald fire beasts a modern breeding house lesson.

"When incubating eggs, it's important to pair them together! Only eggs from the same egg group can be used to breed the next generation!"

"Most importantly, Pokémon and humans cannot lay eggs!"

During her travels in the Sinnoh region, she had some contact with Arkin and Chris, and she also learned a lot about egg hatching from the former.

Beside Xiao Guang lay a sea hare, its cheeks puffed out.

If you don't pay attention in class, a single, highly effective Water Pulse will hit you.

Several green-looking, fiery beasts, their faces bruised and swollen from being beaten, were now obediently listening to the lesson from the sidelines.

They listened so intently they were sweating profusely, almost taking notes.

"Explosive." "Explosive." "Explosive."

The Firestorm Beasts whispered among themselves.

No wonder their population is decreasing despite them actively dragging various Pokémon and even humans into their caves every day.
After a night of instruction, the eyes of these Emerald Firestorm Beasts became much clearer. In the early morning, they waved goodbye to Xiao Guang outside the cave.

"Now, the world of Washing Green should be much healthier!"

Xiao Guang was satisfied and went down the mountain to continue his work of pacifying the Qunqing Coast.

—Subsequently, the Shenhe Museum exhibited newly excavated ancient murals from a hidden cave in Tianguan Mountain.

The rules for raising, hatching, and egg-forming Pokémon are clearly depicted on it.

Sinnoh immediately used this to prove that the ancient people of the Sinnoh region had been researching Pokémon egg hatching for a much longer time than those of the Johto region.

The Johto government did not respond, but instead sent a young boy who immediately opened ten Pokémon eggs that had already been declared dead! (End of Chapter)
