Pokémon Scenario: Intercepting Gible at the Start

These days, even when little girls are practically freezing to tears, they still say they're not cold.

They really prioritize style over warmth!

Chapter 199 The Targeted Growlithe

Located in a prime location next to Jilin University, the Growlithe Dog Breeding Center is bustling with activity even at night.

Compared to high school students, students at Jida University place greater emphasis on the nutrition and move practice of Pokémon.

This requires the elves to absorb more energy, which means that the elves' expenses become greater.

At this stage, people rarely buy tree fruits anymore, since they can pick and eat them themselves in the dungeon, and as long as they don't sell them, they won't violate the Alliance's laws.

Most people are in the energy block area, selecting energy blocks one by one that contain higher energy levels.

Energy cubes are all made by machine, and each one has a slight difference in quality.

Choosing the right option can save you money and get more done.

Shang Qiu glanced at it a few times, but showed no interest.

The energy cubes that Sister Mengyao gave us are more than we can eat, so there's no need to buy more.

As for Eevee, who is one of the future mainstays, he still doesn't have a suitable carry.

Upon seeing Shang Qiu head towards the treasure section, the sales assistant quickly followed.

She also witnessed the battle between Shang Qiu and Apollo; people that strong are usually big spenders.

This commission today might be worth a month's salary!

"Hello sir, what kind of treasure would you like to see? We have common-grade hard stones, soft sand, and even a Life Orb..."

The Jewel of Life?

Forget it, Little Eevee is so afraid of dying, he probably wouldn't dare use it even if given the chance.

Are there any experts who can guide me?

Upon hearing Shang Qiu's words, a hint of surprise flashed in the sales assistant's eyes.

No wonder he's a man who could fight Apollo; his vision is truly impressive!

Such a precious treasure is revealed right from the start.

Keep in mind that the price of items brought by experts is several times that of ordinary treasures!

"Yes, sir. We have some in the neighboring city of Jizhong. If you'd like, we can arrange for a bird spirit to deliver it within half an hour!"

"You're a black card holder, after the discount it's 35 million, how about you take one?"

Thirty-five million!

In other words, this thing originally cost a whopping fifty million...

This far exceeds Shangqiu Wallet's ability to bear the burden.

"Uh... let's leave it for now."

I'll just have to buy it for Little Eevee later, since his level is still too low to use it right now.

Compared to expert guidance, revising the recipe is the most important thing right now.

Most of Shangqiu's elves are still eating the old diet, and their nutrition is no longer adequate.

Just as he was about to leave the treasure area, Chu Mengyao appeared behind Shang Qiu with a charming smile.

Arcanine followed closely behind, drooling.

"Bring one of the experts over for Xiao Qiuyun, it'll be on my tab."

After speaking, Chu Mengyao looked at Shang Qiu.

She wrinkled her nose. "You came all this way and didn't even go find Arcanine to play with? Aren't you afraid Arcanine will bite you?!"

"Wang!"

The Arcanine mimicked Chu Mengyao's expression, baring its teeth and claws, and barking loudly at Shang Qiu.

Huh? Dog, you've changed! You weren't like this before!

Shang Qiu casually patted the Growlithe's neck and stroked it twice.

The Arcanine let out a comfortable bark.

This feels so good, I really want to betray them!

Chu Mengyao was furious when she saw that Arcanine was about to betray her again.

"Wind—Speed—Dog!"

Um?

Something's wrong, the lady of the house is angry!

Arcanine instantly took a half step back, pretending to let out a threatening growl.

Shang Qiu was both amused and exasperated.

What kind of spell did Chu Mengyao cast on the Arcanine? It's actually stopped betraying her.

Shang Qiu unleashed his ultimate move, which was extremely effective against Arcanine.

"Garuda, come out and play with Arcanine for a while."

A flash of red light, and Garchomp appeared on the floor, looking completely bewildered, with a lamb chop still dangling from its mouth.

"Roar?"

Who am I? Where am I? Why is there a big dog again?

"Pfft-"

Chu Mengyao was completely amused by the two elves and quickly dragged Shang Qiu to the backyard, afraid that the shop assistants would see her current expression.

Arcanine also carried Garchomp in its mouth, following closely behind Chu Mengyao and Shang Qiu.

Chu Mengyao gestured for Shang Qiu to sit down, then sat down opposite him and poured him a cup of tea.

He looked at Shang Qiu with a smile, "Try it, the tea brewed with Delicious Water tastes very good."

Shang Qiu: "..."

Is this the world of the rich?

"Xiao Qiu, I want to discuss something with you today. Can Growlithe come and train with you every night?"

“He wasn’t particularly talented before, and I didn’t plan to become a trainer, so I let him train casually, which was also a way for us to pass the time when we were bored.”

"Woof!" Arcanine put down the little shark in its mouth, looking on in protest.

Is this supposed to be a pastime for us? No, you're just making fun of me!

Chu Mengyao glanced at Arcanine and gave it a threatening smile.

"Xiao Feng, are you saying you don't want to go to training?"

Arcanine looked at Chu Mengyao with a pained expression.

Master, you weren't like this before!

(｀?′)=3

I'm so angry, I really want to vent.

Garchomp, please!

"Roar!"

Master, help!

......

An hour later, Shang Qiu led Garchomp and Arcanine out of the Growlithe breeding house.

Garchomp looked sullen; even the lamb chop in his mouth couldn't bring him joy.

But the smile didn't disappear; it just shifted to Arcanine.

Arcanine, carrying the food rations for Shangqiu's Pokémon on its back, ran around excitedly.

I can bully the little shark every day now, so happy!

I'll bully you for the rest of my life if you bite my tail!

Am I not allowed to lick a child even if I don't hit them?

Shang Qiu looked at the close friends, Arcanine and Garchomp, with a smile on his face.

Arcanine has arrived, so the training plan can be put on the agenda!

Currently, apart from Gardevoir, the training of all other Pokémon is on track.

Even Garchomp runs out every day to fight monsters and level up with the two little ones.

Gardevoir, however, has had its training put on hold because there is no Pokémon of comparable strength to train it.

As for Key Circle... this Pokémon must never be exposed; even its training must be done in secret.

Shang Qiu patted Arcanine's head, intending to explain the training plan to Arcanine.

"Arcanine, you've arrived at just the right time. I've just decided to give the Pokémon a training session. If you had arrived late, you might have fallen behind."

Upon hearing Shang Qiu's words, the Arcanine stopped in its tracks, completely bewildered, and stood there dumbfounded.

Training camp?

You weren't like this before!

Isn't it just watching those kids train while you eat and drink by the corner of the wall?

What happened to your promise to take me away from the 997 work culture?

Realizing what was happening, Arcanine quickly dropped its Pokémon food and lunged forward to dive into the ground.

But Shang Qiu was faster; with a flick of his wrist, Arcanine's Poké Ball appeared in his hand.
