You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 10 So that's how it is; I gradually understand everything.

Padiya region, Little Key town.

Outside the large villa opposite the Sunshine Dojo, several moving trucks were parked in an orderly fashion at the entrance.

The villa gate, which Qingyu had never seen before, was now wide open, and strange forces were carrying goods back and forth from time to time.

Besides these employees with superhuman strength, there were also many people dressed as maids, butlers, chefs, etc., standing in a circle.

Clearly, this impressive villa, which has been built for several years, has finally welcomed its new owner.

"Thank you so much, Miss Super Strength!"

A young woman with a high ponytail and green highlights is standing by the roadside, expressing her gratitude to the porters with superhuman strength.

Her right hand was covered by a fingerless glove, and her overall outfit was very sporty. Combined with her healthy tan and cute freckles on her cheeks, she looked youthful and energetic.

"Strange!"

The muscular man, who wore his employee T-shirt like a vest, responded with a thumbs-up and quickly got into the car under the gaze of the black-haired girl.

"Pokémon are truly amazing creatures. Miss Machamp can even drive..."

As the delivery truck drove away, the black-haired girl couldn't help but sigh.

It's hard to imagine how inconvenient human society would be without Pokémon.

Even three adults couldn't match the work efficiency of a monster, right?

Not to mention the irreplaceable super employees like the mailman Dragonite, the programmer Polygon, and Rotom AI.

Pokémon are amazing!
With this thought in mind, the girl was about to turn around when she suddenly noticed a person and a pet walking out of the path and heading towards the other end of Little Key Town.

A black-haired young man I've never seen before, and an adorable Eevee?

Generally speaking, handsome or beautiful people should leave a deep impression, but Conomo had absolutely no impression of him.

Before moving to Little Key Town, I should have said goodbye to all my neighbors...

Did we forget this guy? That's incredibly rude!

After finishing brunch with Eevee and packing up dinner for the day, Qingyu was walking back to the Sunny Gym when she suddenly sensed something and turned around abruptly.

Upon seeing this, his pupils immediately widened.

"Senior Nemo?"

The familiar yet unfamiliar girl before him quickly made Qingyu's expression turn strange.

Unexpectedly, the first local I encountered after transmigrating to the Pokémon world turned out to be the formidable rival of the protagonist of "Shu/Zi".

Nemo, a humanoid Pokémon named Mirai, nicknamed "Iron Crush," and the champion of the Padia title.

At first, Qingyu didn't recognize the building across from his house, but he realized it after Nemo appeared.

"Isn't this Nemo's family's beach villa?"

Although I have many questions in my mind, it seems a bit impolite to just stand there like this.

Qingyu quickly came to her senses, smiled politely at Nemo who was staring at her, and then turned around and continued on her way home.

Based on the chronological order of the game's story, Nemo's move to Little Key Town to recuperate should have occurred two years before the main storyline began.

In other words, she is not a champion yet, and may not even be a trainer.
"I see, I'm starting to understand everything."

……

Back at the Sunshine Dojo, Qingyu couldn't wait to turn on her computer and start looking up information online.

In fact, after obtaining Qinglv's cultivation notes last night, he also tried searching online to see if the "cultivator" existed in this world.

But the result was—

No such person found.

Thinking about it now, maybe it's not that green doesn't exist in this world, but that it just hasn't appeared in the public eye yet?
After a thorough search, Qingyu quickly gained a basic understanding of the regional alliances.

Since Professor Oak's retirement, the Indigo League has not had a champion for a long time. Currently, Mr. Lance, the leader of the Kanto Elite Four, is temporarily serving as the champion.

The situation in other regions was pretty much the same as Qingyu remembered. Hoenn Champion Steven, Sinnoh Champion Cynthia, Kalos Champion Karune, and Galar Champion Leon were all young players who had won championships in the last two years.

As for the Alola region, it has not yet joined the Pokémon League.

At this point, Qingyu finally confirmed one thing.

His current timeline should be earlier than he remembered, about two years earlier.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Qingyu's feelings were somewhat complicated.

The bad news: He has virtually no idea what will happen in the next two years.

Good news: There shouldn't be any major events for at least the next two years.

As we all know, the big bosses usually arrive after the main character appears, so he can play defensively and develop his character during this time.

"But I've become a time traveler, is it possible that I'm the unlucky protagonist?"

The idea only lingered for a moment before Qingyu immediately nipped it in the bud.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
I'm just a mediocre restaurant owner. If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up. It's not my turn!

Qingyu didn't have time to think about long-term matters; he had very important things to do this afternoon.

Increase Eevee's combat power.

Now that we have a fanbase, it's only natural to get the Sunshine Dojo running again.

According to the notes, Eevee's combat strength before evolution was very average.

But right now, I only have this one Pokémon, so I can only hope that Eevee can stand up for me.

Fortunately, their own Ibrahimovic doesn't seem to be entirely legal.

Starting with the sketching techniques you've just learned might yield surprising results.

Besides battling, there are many other ways to improve a Pokémon's battle power, such as...

Watch a movie.

Of course, Qingyu is a serious person; he was referring to the move instructions in the learning machine.

Before heading home, he casually bought a few CDs at the reply station in Pingdie Town.

In the Pokémon series of games, you can instantly learn the corresponding move by simply tapping a disc on a Pokémon's head. It's very convenient.

Of course, such an incredible function certainly doesn't exist in reality.

Unlike in the game, TMs don't require collecting materials to craft; instead, they are available for purchase based on the trainer's level.

Although Qingyu's certified trainer level is only beginner for now, at least he is not short of money.

Besides the operating expenses funded by the Padiya Union, his parents' disappearance also left him with a sum of compensation that he could never use up.

It's hard to imagine how the original owner of this body managed to gradually enter the arms of a rich woman under such circumstances.

Of course, this is not the point.

To teach a Pokémon a move from a TM, you need to watch and learn from recordings repeatedly.

This afternoon, Qingyu's task was to watch a movie with Yibu.

While guiding Eevee to learn moves and build the courage to battle, it can also further enhance the bond between them.

"Strange Light, Roar, Ability Swap, One More Time..."

Let's learn just a few tricks for now~

"Buy?"

Eevee, nestled in Qingyu's arms, looked up and noticed the trainer's wicked smile.

Why would it think its trainer's smile looked like a villain's...?
