Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

Perhaps with the future of the little diamond that will become Diancie, Su Hao will be able to lead the struggling Shenzhou Alliance back to the top spot in a few years.

But right now he's just a high school senior who received his starter Pokémon three months ago and only has three elite Pokémon.

As he left the water boat arena, dusk faded and night slowly fell; it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

After returning to the hotel under the stars and moon, Su Hao released Little Diamond, Blazing Roar Tiger, and Milotic from the Luxury Sphere.

[Su Hao, Su Hao, quick! Give me your phone.]

As soon as the deluxe ball was played, Little Diamond couldn't wait to ask Su Hao for his phone.

Ever since he showed Little Diamond the movie "Pikachu and Her Knight Gallade", Little Diamond has fallen in love with watching animation, anime and comics.

In her spare time after training, Xiao Suizuan would start binge-watching anime series.

Today happens to be the update date for "Mizukage: Pineapple Head Chronicles," which she's been following. There are two chapters in total, including last week's, no wonder she's so impatient.

Meanwhile, Incineroar and Milotic rolled up on their own.

Incineroar was huffing and puffing as it performed various difficult fitness poses, while Milotic was using its psychic powers to float quietly below the ceiling, meditating and cultivating with its eyes closed.

Over this period of time, Su Hao has roughly figured out the personalities of the three Pokémon in his team.

Little Diamond is a lively and innocent optimist by nature. Her only hobby in her spare time is watching anime and reading comics. It seems that thanks to these things, she has a strong imagination and can often use her moves to create different effects.

The downside is that he often shouts out the names of various anime moves in a childish way in the team's waveguide channel maintained by Su Hao.

I wonder if Little Diamond will feel that this period of her life is an unspeakable dark history after she becomes Diancie in the future?

Su Hao had a wicked thought.

As a future mythical beast, Little Diamond possesses astonishing talent, allowing her to gradually grow stronger even while lying down.

So even though Little Diamond's training time was half that of Blazing Roaring Tiger, she could still steadily surpass Blazing Roaring Tiger in strength.

After completing the required amount of training, Xiao Suizuan usually doesn't do any extra training, but instead uses Su Hao's phone to watch various anime series.

Previously, Little Diamond didn't know how to use her superpowers, so it took her a lot of effort to click on the next episode. Occasionally, she would encounter situations where she couldn't click on the next episode no matter what she tried, and Su Hao, who was next to her, would have to help her.

He remembered that Little Diamond had once told him that she had a gut feeling that she needed to become stronger as soon as possible, but now Little Diamond was gradually becoming a bit lazy, and he didn't know who she took after.

However, Su Hao felt that there was nothing wrong with her having some hobbies, as long as she didn't become addicted to the internet, and he was happy to spoil her.

Blazing Roaring Tiger, the only hard-working member of the team without any special background, is constantly striving to surpass Little Diamond in strength.

Whenever he has free time, Blazing Roaring Tiger will give himself extra training.

Su Hao remembered that he used to enjoy taking naps during his Fire-spotted Cat and Hot Cat days.

Finally, there's Milotic. During the week they spent together in the wilderness training camp, Su Hao could clearly see her desire to become stronger.

Milotic is a second-generation god with Latios and Latias as his backers, and he himself is a scroll king.

Su Hao had a feeling that even the Blazing Roaring Tiger might not be able to keep its second-place position in the team anymore...

While pondering, his hands kept moving as he pulled a slim laptop from his backpack. Since Xiao Suizuan had taken her phone to read comics, he naturally had to use the laptop to look up information.

With everything in Mizuho City over, it was time to head to the second gym. However, Su Hao hadn't decided which gym to visit next. Just as he turned on his laptop, Diamond Smash's scream suddenly rang out.

“naaaaa——!”

???

With a look of three parts bewilderment, four parts shock, two parts curiosity, and one part doubt, Su Hao instantly jumped up from his chair.

"What's going on?"

He trotted along in his slippers towards the hotel bed.

The little diamond uses its superpowers to control its phone to read comics.

The Incineroar and Milotic, who were training nearby, were also startled by Little Diamond's loud scream and ran over to see what was going on.

"Na na na!"

[Waaaaah, Su Hao, why is Pineapple Head so abandoned by everyone?!]

It hurts, it hurts too much!

Little Diamond loves to put herself in the protagonist's shoes in everything she sees. As a result, when she sees the protagonist defeat the villain with a certain move, she will excitedly run to practice it. When she sees the protagonist suffering, she will also feel sad.

Looking at the little diamond that was blinking its pink eyes and looking at it with teary eyes, Su Hao sighed.

He patted her head and comforted her, saying, "It's okay, it's okay, things might turn out differently later."

Now that Litten has evolved into Incineroar, the cat's personality has matured considerably, not to mention Milotic.

On the contrary, Little Diamond still has such an innocent and naive personality. She should be the eldest sister, but now she seems like the younger sister of Incineroar and Milotic.

[Really...really?]

Little Diamond's eyes were slightly red as she stared longingly at Su Hao.

I can't guarantee that either... Su Hao sighed inwardly again. This comic had almost clearly indicated from the beginning that Pineapple Head would become a rogue ninja wandering outside.

Su Hao suddenly had a strange feeling that he actually had three daughters and sons with very different personalities.

Not only do we have to worry about their training (studies) and take care of their daily lives (cooking), but we also have to care about their mental health.

How can you have time to date or have a boyfriend/girlfriend?

However, Su Hao felt from the bottom of his heart that this was quite good.

With Little Diamond and the others by his side, that's enough. His partner will only slow down his command speed!

After finally calming Xiao Suizuan down, Su Hao specially chose a show recommended by Li Hua, called "Magical Girl Little Square," which is said to be a healing anime, for Xiao Suizuan to watch.

Little Diamond happily continued watching the anime, while Incineroar and Milotic, startled by Little Diamond's screams, were once again drawn into the world of intense competition.

Su Hao could finally take a break to check some information and prepare for which dojo to visit next.

Chapter 63 Ice Peak City

A snow-capped mountain, perpetually covered in snow and piercing the clouds like a sharp blade, appeared before Su Hao, who was huddled in the arms of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

Because of the incident involving Latios and Latias, Su Hao was delayed for almost half a month before heading to the second gym.

The current date is April 4th, which is the month when spring transitions into summer.

Logically speaking, the current temperature should be a pleasant temperature, neither as cold as winter nor as hot as summer.

In order not to delay his schedule for the National Youth Cup competition, Su Hao had no choice but to take a direct train to the second stop of his dojo tour – Ice Peak City.

Before arriving in Bingfeng City, Su Hao took a quick look at the Baidu entry for Bingfeng City.

The entry clearly states that "[Ice Peak City only experiences extremely low temperatures in late autumn, winter, and early spring. Outside of these times, except for the perpetually snow-covered Ice Feather Mountain, the city's temperature is warm enough to wear only long sleeves.]"

Su Hao believed it, and he did just that.

Then he crashed.

He said that before he got off the train, the pretty flight attendant looked at him as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

As soon as he stepped out of the warm train carriage, a biting gust of cold wind, imbued with the true damage of armor penetration enchantment, lashed at his face.

"!!!"

Wearing only a long-sleeved sweatshirt and cropped jeans, Su Hao instantly experienced what it meant to feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Even though he now possesses the fighting power to tear apart elite-level Pokémon with his bare hands using Aura Spheres, he still can't withstand this kind of cold weather.

A series of biting cold winds kept attacking from all directions, leaving Su Hao with no choice but to release the Blazing Roaring Tiger from the deluxe sphere.

"Crack?"

【What's going on? 】

Blazing Roaring Tiger was secretly doing push-ups inside the deluxe sphere when it suddenly appeared on the platform after a brief darkness.

Seeing Su Hao shivering from the cold, the Blazing Roaring Tiger quickly controlled its hot air attack to create a warm current with almost zero power.

"Come alive!"

The warm current and the cold wind canceled each other out, and Su Hao instantly felt like he had been resurrected on the spot.

"Thank you, Tiger."

Su Hao patted the shoulder of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, which was now twenty centimeters taller than him, and thanked it.

As the saying goes, "You raise a cat for a thousand days, but only use it for one." Su Hao couldn't help but sigh that it wasn't a waste of time to raise the Blazing Roaring Tiger.

But even with the Tiger Brand Radiator now, after the cold wind crisis, a second problem arises.

As a semi-berserker, Incineroar doesn't have the subtle energy control abilities of Mind Blast and Milotic; in battle, Incineroar always fights with wide-ranging, aggressive attacks.

While maintaining a harmless hot airflow, the Blazing Roaring Tiger followed Su Hao to the store selling thermal clothing, which was still a bit of a challenge.

Sensing the key point, Su Hao looked at the thick fur of the Blazing Roaring Tiger and a bold idea popped into his mind!

"Fiery Roaring Tiger, carry me to the clothing store!"

What is face? You can't eat it, Su Hao thought optimistically.

Whether sitting on the shoulders of the Blazing Roaring Tiger or being carried by him, there will be gaps that allow the cold wind to sneak in.
