You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 310 The control center of the Roaring King is...

After Qingyu gave Adu and Xiaochun a brief introduction to the nearby Dragon Pokémon, their expressions became somewhat complicated.

Especially Lance, who subconsciously took out a Poké Ball and held it in his hand, staring at the Fruit Eater hiding in the tree canopy above his head, hesitating to throw it.

Although everyone jokingly calls themselves the "Flying Kings," most of the people in the team whose names contain the character for dragon are not actually dragons.

But if you catch a "Dragon Pokémon" like Berrybug or Millipod, it feels like other trainers will have to change how they complain about you.

"Master A-Lv, your newly caught dragon Pokémon is so cute!"

If his juniors in the international police force said that to him, A-Du felt he might as well just stay called "Dodo" forever!
"There are even dragon-like Pokémon..."

"Pokémon are truly amazing!"

Compared to the more composed A-Du, Tsubaki's eyes were already filled with tears. Clearly, her worldview had been greatly impacted, and her brain had immediately shut down, losing its ability to think.

Of course, in Qingyu's opinion...

Dragonite is just as cute, isn't it? Don't just label dragon Pokémon as "powerful and cold"!

Isn't Noodle Dragon cute?
...It seems that's true.

Then you should just go back to your original form and become a noble steel dragon before talking about cute things!
The fact that the two siblings, who were "country bumpkins" from Guandu and had never seen the world, were allowed to witness a real dragon was just a minor episode.

With A-Du and Xiao-Chun recovering, the group quickly got down to business.

Since we're here at Daguo Lake, it would be nice to take a stroll around the area.

"The northwest side of Lake Daguo connects to the vast ocean surrounding Padiya, and there is a special terrain nearby called 'Mingfuqi Stone'."

Qingyu pointed to the gap in the northwest corner, then quickly looked to the other side.

"As for the east side of Daguo Lake, it connects to Frostmoor, the highest peak in Padiya. The meltwater from the snow on the mountain flows down and into Daguo Lake from the east, forming the Daguo Waterfall at the mouth of the lake."

"The name 'Daguo Lake' is also related to the waterfall."

"When the snow melts in summer and the waterfall's flow increases dramatically, the torrential water falling onto the lake surface generates a large amount of water vapor, giving people the illusion that the lake is boiling."

As Qing Padiya's guide, Yu, spoke, he led the two toward the bottom of the waterfall.

As one of the ten scenic wonders of Patia, the Great Pot Waterfall is indeed very spectacular.

Also, because it is the connection point between Shuangmo Mountain and Daguo Lake, you can sometimes find some surprises.

At that moment, Lance keenly noticed that a Pokémon that looked dull and had a terrified look in its eyes was being swept away by the water flowing down from above and falling rapidly.

"Teacher Yu, that Pokémon is..."

For some reason, A-Du suddenly had a bad feeling.

After A-du spoke, Qingyu noticed the unusual flow of water and quickly smiled.

"Looks like we're in luck. That kid is the only dragon Pokémon discovered in Padia so far, and like Dratini, it's known as a 'late bloomer' Pokémon."

"It's called the Liangjilong, and its attributes are Ice and Dragon."

(Liangjilong)

The so-called surprise refers to Pokémon like the Rhyssoid.

It was springtime, and as the first snow melted, the melting water sometimes brought a group of Snow Mountain Pokémon from Frosty Mountain that were hibernating or resting.

Besides the Liangjiro, the Sneezing Bear, the Whale Walker, and the Ice Ghost Guardian are also frequent visitors to the area.

Of course, it's also possible that these little creatures, full of adventurous spirit, voluntarily drifted downstream to Daguo Lake.

"Coolspine Dragon... Ice + Dragon element???"

A-Du was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening.

No wonder I had a strange feeling earlier; it turns out this little guy is also a god of war in civil war!
Dragon Pokémon have very few weaknesses. Apart from Fairy-type Pokémon, which are almost impossible to deal with, Ice-type Pokémon are the most troublesome for them.

On this point, Kotsubo, who was swept aside in the Masters tournament, is obviously more qualified to speak on the matter.

"Teacher Yu... its evolved form wouldn't be Mr. Hachisaku's Styracosaurus, would it?"

Xiaochun's gaze was somewhat complicated as she looked at Qingyu.

"bingo."

Qingyu nodded.

(Stellerosaurus, very distinctive)
In terms of attributes alone, the Styracosaurus doesn't actually seem that powerful.

However, Ice-type monsters have a unique advantage – their ice-type penetration ability is excellent.

Furthermore, most Dragon Pokémon can learn the extremely noble Dragon Dance, so once a Styracosaurus activates its battle power, it becomes incredibly powerful.

Aside from the Styracosaurus family, only Kyurem of the Three Dragons of the Way possesses this attribute combination.

"..."

Recalling the terrible memories of the Dragon Attribute Master Tournament, Xiaochun couldn't help but shake her head.

Although this is the "most dragon-like" dragon Pokémon they have seen so far, raising a Styracosaurus doesn't seem to be of much use to either her or her cousin Lance.

So, let's just leave it to fate.

Lake Daguo is so big, who knows where this Liangjiosaurus has been washed ashore...

Xiaochun's gaze fell upon the calm surface of Lake Daguo. Aside from numerous Dratini and Dragonair, the lake teemed with a considerable number of Pokémon.

She was more familiar with the Melt-eating Beast, Slowpoke, and Marill, which were all scattered on the ground near the lake, leisurely basking in the sun.

As for what lies beneath the lake surface...

Several figures seemed to flash by, leaving afterimages, but even with Xiaochun's dynamic vision, she couldn't see them clearly.

"There are quite a few fish in Lake Daguo, but most of them are a type of Pokémon called Light Cod, which has a habit of actively attacking people."

Qingyu explained in a timely manner, her words carrying a hint of gritted teeth.

The number one assassin of Lake Daguo is none other than the Pokémon Lightcoat!
If it weren't for the fact that Padiyah is very health-conscious and therefore doesn't have many anglers, they would have been caught long ago!

Because of the sea urchin, a stray from the sea, many Pokémon in Lake Big Pot prefer to stay on the ground.

For example, on a rock not far in front of them, lay a group of leisurely Mililong.

(Mi Lilong)

"This is the first time I've ever seen a dragon that looks like food..."

Staring at the "dragon horde" before him, A-Du looked astonished and couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Generally speaking, a major factor affecting a Pokémon's appearance is its strength.

If you're strong enough to roam freely anywhere, you don't need any camouflage or disguise. The bigger the size, the better, as it will make you look imposing.

For weak Pokémon, blending into nature is crucial to effectively evade attacks from predators.

Therefore, judging from Milion's "sushi disguise," its fighting ability should not be too strong.

but……

Why would it be disguised as sushi in Daguo Lake?
Perhaps only humans can recognize the shape of sushi, or is the fish-like shape very attractive to other Pokémon?
Adu was completely baffled.

"Although he looks weak, Mi Lilong can actually be considered the true overlord of the entire Big Pot Lake..."

Qingyu looked at them and explained in a timely manner.

"While Milion's physical form is indeed relatively weak, its intelligence level is among the best even in the Dragon Pokémon."

The Pokémon world is not just about fighting and killing; more importantly, it's about the emotions and complexities of life!

The fact that weak Pokémon can survive in Lake Dagana means they must have their own unique methods.

"There is a Pokémon called Groudon in Lake Daguo. They are very strong and are famous for their big appetites."

"However, because they are not very intelligent, they have difficulty even with the most basic hunting, so they will cooperate with Milion to catch prey."

"When entering predatory mode, the Roaring Beast will hide the nearby Milion in its mouth and let it issue commands from inside its body, greatly improving its predatory efficiency."

Biologically speaking, the relationship between these two Pokémon can be described as mutually beneficial symbiosis.

Under Mililong's command, Chihouba's large appetite was satisfied, and Mililong himself had a source of support. The food that just leaked from Chihouba's mouth was enough to feed many Mililongs.

The collaboration between the two Pokémon lasted for an unknown period of time, to the point that Million gradually ingrained this behavioral pattern into its DNA.

Even in the Pokédex, one of Milotic's abilities is its exclusive Command ability, which only works effectively when paired with Groudon in Doubles battles.

"So in the eyes of the Pokémon Groudon, Meelong is like their leader, holding a very high position."

"And since the Roaring Beasts are the undisputed kings of the underwater world of Big Pot Lake, their leader, Milion, naturally became the overlord of the surrounding area."

As Qingyu spoke, she subconsciously looked around.

Logically speaking, there should be quite a few "eating roarers" in Daguo Lake, but so far they don't seem to have seen any.

Especially that special owner of the treasure, there wasn't even a trace of it.

Just as Qingyu looked around, trying to spot the figure of a Roaring Tyrant, his pupils suddenly widened.

Beneath the calm surface of the water, a gigantic figure was faintly visible.

Judging from its size alone, it's definitely a huge creature.

Moreover, Qingyu could vaguely sense that its aura was extremely powerful.

Even the Pokémon near Lake Daguo are not weak, and the current situation is clearly abnormal.

Combined with the fact that the owner of the treasure had not yet shown up, Qingyu quickly came to a bold guess—

Could it be that the real treasure owner, Mililong, discovered them from the beginning and hid in the mouth of the Roaring Beast early on, planning to stay hidden until they left?
Otherwise, given Chihouba's brainless personality, he shouldn't have held his breath for so long...

This also indirectly confirms that Millong's intelligence is indeed very high.

However, since I've already discovered it...

Here, have my secret seasoning!

"A-Du, Xiao-Chun, be careful."

As Qingyu smiled, he took out the Poké Ball from his hand.

"Wait a minute, a big guy might come up!"
