Elf Trader: My trump card is the Light/Dark Mantis.

Elf Trader: My Trump Card is the Light and Dark Mantis (Author: Urban Collection)

Jiang Gu travels to the Pokémon world, is taken in by Xiao Lan, and becomes a Pokémon trader.

However, since he possesses the Pokémon Coexistence System, he doesn't sell starter Pokémon or pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

The Pokémon he produces here are from other worlds!

Lika: I was able to reach the top of the rankings thanks in no small part to Lisabubu. Her Leaf Beam's cleansing attribute makes it the same no matter who comes!

Dodo: Abu! Transform into the Holy Dragon!

Xiaoxia: Mega Seadramon, answer my expectations, Mega Evolution!

Giovanni: Polar Wardster, show your power!

……

Jiang Gu: **Arzetus the God? Holy Spirit King's Chart*? Royal Knights? Ace Team?

Jiang Gu: Holy King Sagros, Light's Punishment Incaros, get to work!!!

Chapter 1 Dahl! Time to get to work!

Yuhong City, underground of Yuhong Game City.

"So... the shop you told me about, the one with the really beautiful Grass-type Pokémon..."

"Is it in the black market?"

A girl dressed in elegant robes with delicate features looked suspiciously at the shop in front of her, which didn't even have a signboard.

Then she looked at her eager companion beside her.

The girl's initially confused expression cleared somewhat due to her surprise.

"Little Blue, don't you know I'm the gym leader?"

Lijia looked rather helpless.

The underground black market in Yuhong City is backed by considerable financial resources, and even has connections within the alliance.

Therefore, even as the current Grass-type Gym Leader of Celadon City, Rika could only turn a blind eye.

but……

It's one thing to pretend not to see them on ordinary days, but to come here in person to look for the spirits...

Isn't that a bit too much?

Does that mean the government officially acknowledges the existence of the black market?

"Well... don't worry too much about the details, just come with me."

Xiao Lan, whom Rika complained about, is an orange-haired girl with sparkling earrings.

She chuckled and blinked, a sly, fox-like glint appearing on her otherwise pretty face.

Then, Xiao Lan grabbed Li Jia's hand and rushed into the shop ahead.

At the same time, the girl shouted a few times.

"Jiang Gu, a customer's here!"

Lijia was a bit absent-minded, so she was dragged into the shop by Xiaolan with a blank expression.

Instinctively, the dojo master looked around.

The shop was much more spacious than it appeared from the outside, and the various goods were arranged quite neatly, giving it a good impression.

However, what puzzled Rika was that the various cabinets and shelves were not filled with Poké Balls like those in ordinary shops, but rather with capsule-shaped items.

At the same time, common fairy foods and energy blocks are not available.

Isn't this right...

Lijia frowned slightly, looking around with some suspicion.

The more she looked, the more she felt something was wrong!

Generally speaking, in shops that sell Pokémon, it is necessary to feed and bathe the Pokémon in the shop.

Therefore, we will also sell some daily necessities for elves.

However, Lijia didn't see any of these things.

She felt that this shop had absolutely nothing to do with selling elves!

Really, could there be some beautiful Grass-type Pokémon?

and many more……

Xiao Lan, could she have been scammed?

Lijia's heart sank slightly.

Incidentally, she also stared with suspicion at a rather young and handsome man who walked in through the back door.

"She's quite good-looking..."

"However, precisely because of this, the probability that he is a fraudster is even higher!"

"Xiao Lan must have been fooled by this guy named Jiang Gu, who used her appearance to deceive her!"

Lijia pondered, a hint of malice in her eyes.

However, her companions didn't have so many messy ideas.

Xiao Lan walked up to Jiang Gu with a smug look on her face and patted him on the shoulder.

“Business is coming.”

The orange-haired girl winked and made faces.

Jiang Gu smiled and nodded.

"sorry to bother you."

He immediately recognized the identity of the person following Xiao Lan.

Rika, the Grass-type Gym Leader of Yuhko City.

Her obsession with and fervor for Grass-type Pokémon, and... her wealth.

Jiang Gu, as a time traveler, was very clear about this.

It seems my first business deal in Yuhong City is about to open.

Jiang Gu was in a good mood and walked forward enthusiastically.

"Hello, Miss Rika."

"Manager Jiang? Is it alright if I address you like that?"

"Well, I'd like to take a look at the Pokémon you sell here."

Lijia shook hands with Jiang Gu with a graceful demeanor and insisted on explaining her purpose.

Then, the girl stared intently at Jiang Gu's face, as if trying to find the flaw in the liar she saw.

The latter, however, did not notice Rika's little scheme and simply nodded.

"Xiao Lan told me everything."

"You're looking for some beautiful and rare Grass-type Pokémon, right?"

"It just so happens that I have quite a few kinds here."

Then, Jiang Gu revealed a mysterious smile.

"Moreover, they are all special Pokémon that the League has not yet discovered."

"is it?"

"Then I'm actually looking forward to it."

Lijia cooperated by showing a curious expression.

At the same time, a slight anger rose in his heart.

It turns out to be a liar!

She became increasingly certain of her earlier guess.

Grass-type Pokémon that the League hasn't discovered?

How can it be!

You should know that this is only possible if new areas are developed.

Even for a leading figure in academia like Professor Oak, discovering a new Pokémon is quite difficult.

A small shop in the black market actually claimed to have rare grass-type Pokémon that had never been seen before.

Or several types?
