Pokémon: Legendary Pokémon Simulator, Starting with Arceus

Even supergrafting is useless.

Just when Xiong Meng thought it was hopeless, a pink figure emerged from the pond.

"Gado~" He meant no harm.

Seeing the stunned hippo come out to admit it, the Mosquito King and Lucky Kappa instantly softened their tone and greeted each other cheerfully.

"Quack quack~"

"Ruda~"

Xiong Meng responded cheerfully, but his gaze remained fixed on the silly hippo.

It's not hard to see from what just happened that the other side is in a dominant position. Their strength may not be absolute, but as an outsider, they are definitely in a dominant position.

His gaze was serious; this time, he was on high alert, mentally instructing Polygon 2 to be constantly vigilant and to run if things went wrong.

"Gado~" Slowpoke pointed to the grass not far away.

Xiong Mengchao felt relieved after connecting with the goodwill before asking what had happened.

The super ability to make Slowpoke pause, a special ability to convey emotions and communicate, is that a good thing about this young man?

"I want to camp in the middle of the grass, but not too close to the pond because it will flood at night, and not too close to the rocky area because the elves there are very mischievous."

"By the way, the child will practice rainmaking skills at noon, so remember to bring an umbrella."

As soon as the silly hippo finished speaking and was about to leave, Xiong Meng called him back.

"Thank you for telling me, senior. Please don't find the return gifts too offensive."

Looking at the thick box handed to him, he nodded sheepishly, then plopped down and patted the ground beside him.

Xiong Meng put the box down in confusion, only to see the other person pick up a box, open it, throw one into their mouth, chew for a while, and nod.

"Add more~"

As the hippo called out, Mosquito King and Lucky Kappa also came over to taste it. After eating, their eyes lit up and they called to the other little guys.

The sprites in the pond swarmed over, and when Slowpoke stood up and raised his hand, the sprites actually started to line up.

Xiong Meng stared blankly at the scene, feeling something was off. This silly hippo must have studied something.

Seeing one energy cube for each sprite, Xiong Meng put down a whole bunch more, patted the other person on the shoulder, and said, "There are plenty of energy cubes, one box for each sprite, otherwise people will think we can't afford them."

Since discovering that energy cubes could be used as hard currency for elves, he has done a lot of things in his spare time, and they never expire in the system's inventory.

"Thank you, Jado~". You can come with Mudkip when we practice later.

"Thank you very much. I'll go set up the tent now."

Walk to the spot I just pointed out and throw the Poké Ball. Heracross will appear, and Porygon2 will also fly out of the phone to join the tent-building team.

When Heracross and Porygon2 came out, the three Pokémon that were handing out items all looked over at the same time.

"Jiaduo~" This little guy is a good person, I can trust him.

The sprites in the pond have begun to trust the creatures, and a special training plan is being set up inside the tent.

"First up is Mudkip. That senior just said he can join the training. Go check it out first."

"If you can learn it, then learn it; if not, then practice water-based skills and ask the seniors for advice."

"Sell!"

"Polygon2, you've only just evolved. Right now, the most important thing is to get familiar with your body, understand the speed and damage of your skills, and also learn about the specifics of each aspect."

"w!"

"Heracross, you should continue practicing sculpting, but you also need to do strength training. Use rocks as weights until you are exhausted, then use your skills to sculpt."

"Remember, only activate the skill carving when you are completely exhausted."

"Hera!"

His original plan was to focus on strength and battle, but Porygon's evolution and the Slowpoke in the pond successfully disrupted the two Pokémon's strategy.

Only Heracross's plan remained unchanged... Oh well, at least everything is changing for the better.

When they came out of the tent, the energy cubes hadn't all been distributed yet, so they asked Mudkip to help and led the other two Pokémon toward the rocky area.

Polygon 2 measures and records itself, while Xiong Meng and Heracross each find suitable stones and begin weight training together.

The hippo by the pond had already finished its training and soon finished distributing its energy blocks, then carefully observed the Mudkip.

Slowpoke: (･_･)

Mudkip: (･_･)

As time passed, everyone finished eating the energy cubes, Xiong Meng rested twice, and finally the silly hippo moved.

"Kado~" Follow me.

He could already tell that this little guy was exceptionally talented, and with so much energy in his body, he was clearly a master at rainmaking.

Then... three days later...

"Kado?" Slowpoke rarely showed a puzzled expression.

How could that be? You can't even learn it yourself, how come you can't learn it?

On the first day of teaching, Lotte Hippo didn't think much of Mudskipper's lack of learning. He thought it was normal that he couldn't learn anything in one day.

The second day, the mosquito coil frog king still hadn't learned how to use it, but he had already gotten close to the point of praying for rain. Hmm, he should be able to do it by tomorrow.

On the third day, Hippolyta was still not good at Mudkip, but he could feel that he was just one step away from success, so he practiced until night.

Slowpoke thought it would definitely work by tomorrow at the latest, but on the fourth day, which is now, he looked at Mudkip in utter confusion.

That shouldn't be the case. The beginning was fine, and the middle was cohesive, so why did it fall apart at the end?

That's really strange.

"Add more~" Let's try again.

"Sell!"

The Mudskipper guides its body's energy as taught, seeking energy in nature.

A strange fluctuation appeared in his body, and dark clouds began to gather in the sky. When the two finally merged, the strange aura around the Mudkip Fish could be clearly felt to have stopped.

Yeah, another failure.

"...Gado?" The Slowpoke's blank eyes were full of doubt.

"Is it still not working, senior? How about we teach something else first?"

Xiong Meng, having finished his training, walked over and immediately knew what had happened; it seemed he had failed again.

The silly hippo glanced at him. "Rainmaking is my specialty. I've never lost in decades."

There's absolutely no way we're going to give up. There must be something wrong somewhere, and this is a new test!

Xiong Meng patted the dejected Mudkip, then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, senior, do you know about Mudkip's situation? I mean, the one where he was born with excessively high energy, which caused a defect."

Ok?

Well, seeing the hippo's stunned expression, it's clear it doesn't know.

"Your situation is special and needs to be addressed on a case-by-case basis. Didn't you discuss this with your seniors?"

"Sell(´-﹏-`；)" I forgot...I forgot.

The trainer had specifically told him to come, but every time he came, he would train until night and then forget about it.

"Excuse me, senior, let me explain... like this... like that..."

"Okay, I see," the stunned hippo breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Knowing the problem makes things easier; at least the first failure was saved.

The situation with Mudfish is that it's impossible to do anything with such fine detail; it's like inserting a key but not being able to turn it—it breaks as soon as you try.

Normal Pokémon keys are made of metal, but Mudkip's keys are undefined; they're hard when you put them in, but soft when you move them.

"Kado~" After pondering, Slowpoke offered a new perspective.

Since the key can get in anyway, let's just use brute force to create a miracle and break the key through.

"Sell)!"

After hearing the solution, Mudfish thought it was great, as he was familiar with it.

Without hesitation, he once again guided the energy within himself and nature, but this time, instead of slowly and meticulously guiding and merging it, a large burst of energy erupted from his body, forcefully soaring into the air and merging with the dark clouds.

"Da da da da~"

It's raining.
