Trainer? I'm just an ordinary hot spring owner.

A black shadow suddenly emerged from the shadow beside the Caterpillar. Its beautiful wings were like a blade, fiercely slashing across the Caterpillar's weak body.

After just one encounter, the Caterpillar's eyes started spinning around and it couldn't get up again.

He easily solved the problem of the Caterpillar's flapping wings and stretched out his four wings. His scarlet eyes stared at the insect catcher in front of him. Under the sunlight, a large shadow covered the insect catcher, just like the Demon King Ghidorah who descended from the sky.

"Do you want to continue?" Jiang Cheng kindly reminded the other party that that was enough.

The fighting power of the two sides is totally unequal. Let's stop while we are ahead and take the elves to the elf center for treatment. I'm in a hurry to buy ice cream.

"Come back, green caterpillar"

The insect-catching boy put the green caterpillar with circle eyes back into the ball, and his eyes were filled with more fighting spirit: "It is indeed a tough opponent, but this is the meaning of fighting. What fun is there in ending it easily? I have to start taking it more seriously!"

"Come out! Poisonous powder moth! Show them how powerful you are!"

Jiang Cheng pursed his lips. Is the Poison Powder Moth stronger? It is indeed a little stronger, but the insect's poison attribute is not a threat to the Wing Flutter. The poison powder, poison, and poison needles can deal damage, but...

With a speed of 65, the powder moth has no chance of getting the chance to attack when facing the flapping wings.

It seems that my fairy dream of going to nm will definitely come true today.

"Flutter Wings, Shadow Ball!" In that case, let's end the battle quickly.

The shadow energy condensed from the mouth of the dragon-like flapping wings, and it almost flashed to the side of the Pokémon. The Pokémon, which had just emerged from the Poké Ball and had not had time to adapt to the surrounding environment, saw a shadow ball flying straight towards its face. It wanted to escape, but before its body could move, the shadow ball had already hit its face.

The high amount of damage once again cleared the poisonous powder moth's state, and it spun in the air before falling heavily to the ground.

"Toxic powder moth!!!"

Amid the sorrowful cries of the insect catcher, the poisonous powder moth could no longer rise.

"You played very well. How about we stop here for today?" Jiang Cheng still felt reluctant. No matter what, it was not a good idea to fry the fish. Although he had just been a trainer for two days, the quality of these Pokémons was very different.

There is a kind of beauty of a divine beast man.

"What a powerful dream demon, so fast!"

"The move is also very powerful. The boy's Powdermoth couldn't even take a single Shadow Ball."

Watching the battle on the field, the onlookers also began to discuss. As for Jiang Cheng, the dream monster with a strange appearance, many people were speculating about his specific performance in the battle, but no one expected that this dream monster would be so strong.

Although the two Pokémons of the Insect Catcher are indeed possible and their strength is questionable, we are all ordinary people. How strong can the Pokémons in our hands be? It is rare to be able to kill two Pokémons in the first two rounds.

"What would happen if you faced that dream demon?"

"It's difficult. There is still too little information at the moment. That Dream Demon has obviously been well trained, and its size... is almost like that of a dominant Pokémon..."

.....

"Surprisingly, even the poisonous powder moth was defeated..." The insect catcher lay on the ground in a frustrated forward bending posture, feeling quite shocked.

Jiang Cheng began to feel a little impatient and was ready to persuade the other party to just admit defeat. He was about to feel guilty if the fight continued.

The person was beaten for two consecutive rounds and was killed in an instant. It was a bit excessive and the harm to the teenagers was immeasurable.

Zhen Yifa is really something, why doesn’t he even know how to act?

How about giving in a little in the next round? At least give him a few rounds and some gaming experience. Otherwise, if he really gets beaten to tears, Jiang Cheng will have no way to defend himself.

However, judging from the other party's behavior, he should surrender soon...

This is good, a short pain is worse than a long pain, and I can also quickly...

"Thank you for your hard work, Powdermoth. Go down and take a rest."

The insect catcher who was originally lying on the ground slowly got up, took back the poisonous powder moth that was unable to fight, and looked at Jiang Cheng again, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

"You are indeed an enemy worth defeating. My green caterpillar and even the poisonous powder moth are no match for you. Maybe in your eyes, I am just a weakling... But next, I will show you the bond between me and my elves!!!"

At that moment, Jiang Cheng was even about to take out his mobile phone to record this scene, and then send it to the adult insect catcher many years later.

This kind of vocabulary is still a bit too advanced for him at his age.

His toes are about to mutate into three moles.

Hurry up, take out your trump cards, I'll let you off a bit, fight for two rounds, and then we'll end the battle peacefully, I'll go buy my ice cream, you go to your Pokémon Center...

"Come out, my ace, Speaker Cricket!!"

As the insect-catching boy called out, a Pokémon with a red body and a pair of long mustaches appeared. The antennae on its head were red curved strips, and there were two red balls where they connected to the head. Its belly was a bit like the shape of a violin, with black spots in the middle and on both sides. There was a beige vertical line pattern from the neck to the middle spot, with a black line in the middle. The lower part of the abdomen was dark red, and there was a beige part extending to the back of the body. A Pokémon with slender arms and a pair of black wings on its back appeared in front of Jiang Cheng.

"puff!!"

Jiang Cheng finally failed to hold on and saliva spurted out.

"Cough... cough cough... no... it's okay... I just suddenly thought of something happy." Jiang Cheng waved his hands, indicating that it was okay. He tried hard to restrain himself, but the corners of his mouth that once had to be gentle were harder to suppress than AK.

"You... Hey... Why did you give the speaker cricket such a name?"

Speaker Cricket Man, I laughed when I heard it. You, Speaker Cricket Man...how can you be like a hero!

"The Loudspeaker Cricket is my trump card and my indispensable partner. We must carry out chivalry to the end on our path!"

"Okay, that's enough... Let's get started..."

Jiang Cheng really couldn't hold it in any longer. As a veteran surfer and Pokémon player, he had naturally heard of those well-known memes in the Pokémon circle, and among them, the funniest one was the Speaker Cricket Man.

As a household bug, the attributes of the Speaker Cricket can be said to be the worst among all, with a single bug attribute and a racial value of 384 points, which is the worst among all. It is praised by the famous Pokémon UP host AG as: the worst household bug.

Especially when put together with the Ocean Hu Baoyi Dolphin Man, the contrast can be said to be quite obvious.

This also gave birth to a famous meme - Speaker Cricket Man, and my father Speaker Cricket.

Because of this joke, this unknown Pokémon became popular overnight, and even won the top spot in a regional voting for the most popular Pokémon.

It can be said that Teacher AG is worthy of being the number one fan of Speaker Cricket.

But playing is playing alone. When you really see such a Pokémon, even specially named Speaker Cricket, appearing in front of you.

To be honest, it's hard to hold on.

It turns out you are also a fan of Speaker Cricket...

Seeing Jiang Cheng trembling all over and blushing because of the appearance of Speaker Cricket Man, the insect-catching boy couldn't help but feel more confident: "Hehe, you must be intimidated by our aura! Speaker Cricket Man, use the cross shears!!"

"The battle is over! Speaker Cricket, we can't fight!"

Even though the insect catcher and his Speaker Cricket Man rushed over shouting about friendship and bond, the poor Speaker Cricket's basic speed was only 65, the same as the Powdery Floss Moth. It flew forward with its cross-scissors and flapped its wings to one body length back, dodging it perfectly.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng also realized that real Pokémon battles are different from those in games.

In reality, there are more factors to consider, and one of the most important factors is distance.

The speed value has many effects, and the 135 high speed of Zhenyifa not only gives her unlimited first-fire rights, but also allows her to have the capital to increase distance.

Whether it is the Caterpillar's silk spinning or the Speaker Cricket's cross-scissors skill, in reality they need to fly over a distance to achieve contact in order to cause damage or control. The Speaker Cricket's speed is only 65, and the Caterpillar is even worse. Under the premise that the insect-catching boy has not invested resources to specially improve the silk spinning skill, the silk spinning speed looks quite slow to the outside world, and it almost spreads towards the flapping wings.

The cross scissors are made by the Speaker Cricket flapping its wings and flying, making a burst of charge. The flapping wing launcher only needs to step back slightly to avoid the attack.

The next scene was a bit cruel. Facing this opponent, Zhen Yifa not only refused to surrender but also dared to fight back against him. Naturally, he had no mercy at all. He went straight to the strength of the opponent and a magic flash took away all of Speaker Cricket's physical strength.

With this, the battle that started as a farce and ended in confusion ended.

There was no game, no confrontation, just a one-sided beating.

"Well... you fought well. I should go buy some ice cream. I look forward to fighting you next time."

Looking at the dejected insect catcher boy, Jiang Cheng gave him some encouragement and prepared to slip away.

Anyway, beating a baby is not a glorious thing. Oh, I am also a baby? That's fine.

"and many more"

The insect-catching boy called Jiang Cheng and took out some change from his pocket while he was looking surprised. "Here you go. This is the reward for the winner."

"Um...thank you"

Although Jiang Cheng felt a little strange to win money from a child, seeing the people around him looking as if it was a matter of course, Jiang Cheng accepted it with peace of mind. He guessed that this was also one of the rules of Pokémon battles in this world.

Battles are allowed, but the winner must be able to obtain corresponding rewards. This can also be considered an incentive mechanism to encourage people to participate in Pokémon battles.

"Hmph, things may change over time. Once I have trained with the Speaker Cricket Man, I will come back to find you!"

After saying these classic cruel words from online novels, the insect catcher hurried to the Pokémon Center.

Jiang Cheng pursed his lips. Oh my god, he almost wanted to ask if your surname was Ye or Xiao? But then he thought, this is Alola, where can he awaken his spirit?

Wait, it seems possible, isn’t it Rotom?

Although he is a little immature and naive, the insect catcher is a very good opponent. He does not put pressure on his teammates when he fails. He always stays positive and confident. He is not stubborn and can afford to lose. There are many things that Jiang Cheng needs to learn from him.

Jiang Cheng, who had finally ended the battle, could finally take Zhen Yifa back to buy ice cream, while the onlookers were still discussing the battle.

"So handsome, is that elf called Flutterhair? Isn't it called Dream Monster?"

"Maybe it's a name someone gave it? But the last skill that the dream demon released seemed to be a fairy-type skill?"

"Of course Dream Monsters can use fairy skills, but not many. Magic Flash is one of them."

"It's really strong. The boy had no power to fight back. His attack was easily resolved, and I defeated his elf directly. As expected... I was wise not to challenge him."

"Humph, as a trainer, how can you be afraid before the battle?"

"Can you win if you go up and fight?"

"Will win!"

.....——————

"How about fluttering your hair? After exercise, on this hot day, having an icy cold strawberry ice cream is really refreshing!"

Jiang Cheng held an ice cream in his hand, and while communicating with Zhen Yifa, he took credit for it: "Our cooperation is perfect. Zhen Yifa, your strength, combined with my spiritual instructions, makes the opponent unable to fight back."

Zhen Yifa was now carefully licking the strawberry ice cream in Jiang Cheng's hand with her tongue. Her red tongue carefully touched the cold ice cream. The cold taste of the ice cream made her shudder, but soon, the sweet fragrance of strawberry spread from her mouth, making her unable to resist licking it a second time.

She needed to concentrate on the food now and had no time to reply to her younger brother.

"Come on, everyone, you've worked hard. Have some cold drinks and take a short break before continuing." Back at the hot spring hotel, Jiang Cheng put two large bags of drinks on the ground and waved to everyone who was working.

"Oh!! Brother, you went to buy this, thank you so much!!" Several workers who were working on the construction came over with elves. Jiang Cheng specially reserved some elves this time and bought a lot of them. The workers also released their elves to drink together.

Jiang Cheng also released Gastly and Magikarp from the Poké Balls and gave each of them a bottle. Everyone gathered together and enjoyed a rare happy time.

Gastly picked a bottle of Coke, as it thought the color suited it very well. When the bubbling sweet sparkling water exploded in its mouth, it couldn't help but stick out its tongue and burp loudly, causing everyone to laugh.

Gastly also started laughing and became even more fond of the black drink in front of him.

It’s delicious and fun, who can resist such a good thing?

I came here by myself, the food and accommodation are good, and now I can also drink such interesting drinks.

At this moment, Gastly knew that he had come to the right place! !

Magikarp still maintains that innocent expression, and it seems to prefer peach juice to stimulating drinks like Coke.

Jiang Cheng's reward seemed to have some effect. In the following days, these super craftsmen worked with amazing efficiency. In just one afternoon, the once damaged roof was gone, and replaced by a Chinese-style roof with brackets and eaves.

"How is it? Is the effect okay?"

"Uncle Rooney, that's awesome! It's beyond my expectations!" Jiang Cheng really likes the antique roof in front of him. Its color scheme is consistent with the surrounding buildings, yet it stands out and is unique.

The reason why Jiang Cheng wanted to build the hot spring center like this was not to be unique, but because being alone in a foreign land, he always wanted to see some familiar things to relieve his homesickness.

"Then we'll leave first. If you have any questions, please contact us."

Rooney waved to Jiang Cheng and prepared to retreat.
