My Pokémon Story of Seasons

Chapter 140 Harbor Town

As the sun set, Tong Hua and his group passed through Fengrao Town and the plains outside the town, finally arriving at a place not far from Gangbo Town.

The group strolled along the coastline, stopping frequently to admire the beautiful sunset views.

"Miao Ming—"

Electric Dragon, carrying a small backpack, suddenly stopped walking behind.

He gazed at the enormous sunset slowly sinking into the sea in the distance, its orange-red rays painting the ocean a magnificent warm hue, shimmering and breathtakingly beautiful.

The light bulb on the electric dragon's tail dimmed unconsciously. He thought of his own world, where, due to the impending cessation of starlight, he might never see such beautiful natural scenery again.

"Miao Ming—." Thinking of this, Dianlong couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

He had clearly been carrying out some kind of mission, going through time and space to find Celebi, Riolu, and Sceptile. Now, not only had he failed to find the remaining two, but he had also completely forgotten how he had traveled through time.

"Miao Ming—"

"How is everyone? —"

"Hmm?" Seeing the electric dragon behind her stop, Tong Hua keenly sensed its low spirits.

He walked over to Dianlong and gently patted his soft back: "What's wrong? Did something upset you?"

"Huh?"

"La-hua—"

The Pokémon around it gathered around, all concerned for Ampharos. Only the two Celebi understood how Ampharos felt.

However, surrounded by everyone's warmth, Dianlong's low spirits gradually improved.

He took a deep breath of the salty sea breeze and shook his head vigorously, as if trying to shake off those heavy thoughts.

The jewel on his tail began to emit a warm light again, and he raised his head, giving everyone a bright smile.

"Mwah!"

"I'm fine! I just thought the sunset was beautiful and made everyone worry."

I'm the head of the investigation team, how can I be so dejected here!

The people in the other world are probably still fighting against Dark Dialga. The fact that I was able to come here must mean that I am being given high hopes and carrying a great mission!

With this thought in mind, the electric dragon was fully energized, and the jewel on its body emitted a dazzling crimson light.

Seeing that the electric dragon had perked up again, Tong Hua breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're alright! We all looked exhausted. Keep pushing, we'll reach town soon. I'll treat you to a big meal tonight!"

"Meow!" The pickpocket cat was the first to raise its paw, saying it wanted to eat seafood!

"Trembling!" "Chirp chirp!" "Oh my!"

Immediately, everyone started arguing about what to eat that night.

Seafood! Salad! Dessert!

Seeing the Pokémon arguing, Tong Hua quickly pulled them apart.

"Alright, alright, really, what's there to argue about?" Tong Hua shook her head and sighed helplessly.

"Have you all forgotten? We're not short of money! We can just eat whatever we want!"

"Poyoyo~"

The three little fairy milks cheered around Tong Hua, and the other Pokémon immediately stopped arguing and looked at Tong Hua with sparkling eyes.

"Alright! It's decided then!" Tong Hua waved his hand with great enthusiasm. "Tonight, let's try all the local delicacies of Gangbo Town!"

Porto, the largest port town in the Armenian region, is bustling with activity year-round.

Because there is no airport in the Armia region, all supplies and tourists from other places can only enter the customs area by sea from the port town.

Therefore, the docks in Gangpo Town are always exceptionally busy, with huge passenger and cargo ships docked in the deep-water port area, and cranes constantly operating to move all kinds of containers.

The customs building was brightly lit, and even at night, staff members were still busy processing procedures.

Every street, and every building, is paved with various kinds of stone bricks. Compared to Chicory Village and Windswept Town, it has a unique style.

Trainers and tourists from all over the world can be seen everywhere on the streets, carrying Pokémon from different regions, with different accents and exotic clothing.

Although there are no Pokémon Centers here and the use of Poké Balls is prohibited, there are still quite a few trainers who love to battle, switching between each other on the street like a performance.

The shop signs along the roadside are written in several languages, selling local specialties and souvenirs.

This international atmosphere was a novelty for both Tong Hua and the Pokémon.

"Let's go check into the hotel we booked first."

Tong Hua casually pulled out a notebook from his pocket, on which he had recorded the name and address of the hotel he had booked.

"Everyone, stay close to me, don't get separated!" Tong Hua called out to the Pokémon who were already captivated by the various novelties of Harbor Town.

"Miao Ming!" Dianlong stood on the street, looking up at a lighthouse in the distance.

There's a lighthouse like that in Noisy Town, where their research team's base is located. He often goes there to guide the Pokémon at sea.

"Meow."

Of the group, only the pickpocket cat was the most composed. She perched on Tong Hua's shoulder, elegantly licking her paws.

Because she had already explored this place before, and even had a criminal record, Tong Hua led the Pokémon through the smooth cobblestone streets and quickly found the hotel to stay at.

The environment here is nice; it's more like a guesthouse than a hotel. The large penthouse suite is not only spacious enough, but also has a balcony with a sea view.

After putting down their luggage, Tong Hua immediately led everyone on a tour of Gangbo Town.

The match is the day after tomorrow, so they can eat and play whatever they want in Harbour Town tonight!

The town of Gangbo seemed to be just waking up at night. Lanterns and colorful lights along the streets lit up, illuminating the stone buildings in a warm and dreamy way.

The air was filled with a complex aroma that made one's mouth water: the charred fragrance of grilled fish, the rich and savory flavor of stewed soup, the sweetness of buttered pancakes, the exotic allure of the spice stall, and the steaming aroma of bread fresh from the oven—

The various flavors blend together, and far from clashing, they wonderfully tempt the appetite of every passerby.

Tong Hua's group was immediately overwhelmed by the flood of delicious food as they walked down the pedestrian street.

"Mwah!" "Terrifying!" "Meow!"

Electric Dragon, Foam Chipmunk, and Pickpocket Cat were all attracted by the various seafood dishes, and the exciting cooking scenes and tempting sauces made them eager to try them.

"Oh my!" "Fou!"

Sweetie and Mini Fu were very interested in a stall that made vegetable salad rolls on the spot, watching the stall owner skillfully operate the equipment.

Even the usually reliable Delibird had its eye on a shop selling exquisite Pokémon-shaped snacks and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Tong Hua waved his hand, fulfilling his promise: "Alright! Everyone, buy whatever you want to eat. Eat as much as you want tonight!"

"Oh!" the Pokémon cheered in unison and immediately began a sweep.

They ate their way from one end of the street to the other, trying all sorts of local delicacies.

"Phew, I'm full."

Tong Hua rubbed her stomach; it seemed she had eaten a bit too much.

"Squeak—" The foam squirrel even ate itself until it was round and plump, turning into a hamster ball.

The group walked down the street, taking a stroll to digest their food.

"We still have one more day, how about we rent a boat and go out to sea?"

On the way, Tong Hua suddenly spoke to everyone.

"Huh?" Sweetie, holding Mini Fu, tilted her head.

They had never even experienced rowing a boat on a lake, let alone going to sea.

Is sea travel really safe?

"Don't worry." Tong Hua patted Tian Wu Ni's head. "Don't you usually love adventure? The sea is a lot of fun. On the vast sea, you can't see any land or coastline at all."

I've always wanted to experience that feeling of freedom and openness.

As she was talking, Tong Hua suddenly stopped.

It wasn't because something attracted him, but because the crowd in front of him suddenly stopped.

"Hmm?" Tong Hua raised her head and looked ahead.

This appears to be the town square, and it seems like some kind of event is taking place here.

In front of the crowd were rows of tiered seats, and at the very front of the seats was a dazzling stage with flashing lights!

Right now, a band is performing on stage!
