Pokémon travel photography: Starting with riding the wave of popularity.

“Her name is Ahua, she’s not some weird or strange person! But Miss Nemo didn’t make a bet with you, did she…”

Compared to Ziyu's attempt to reason with Xia Mu, Xiaoyao had already taken out her phone.

"Moshi moshi, is this Miss Officer Jenny? I've discovered a pervert trying to abduct a girl..."

"So many balls, so many bags!"

Xia Mu immediately stepped forward to stop Xiao Yao.

"I was just kidding!"

Natsuki didn't want to be taken away by Officer Jenny as soon as he arrived in the Padia region, so he stopped Haruka from calling the police at lightning speed and slid down to his knees.

"At worst, I'll just put her down right now..."

While thinking about Xiaoyao's behavior, Xia Mu had the Green Vine Snake lower Nemo, who was now hanging on the vine whip like a corpse, having exhausted all her strength.

Although Nemo had exhausted all her strength in the fight with Tire Cat, she remained stubbornly attached to the lawn.

"Uh... fight me!"

Nemo, lying on the lawn, tremblingly reached out her hand to Xia Mu.

"I want to fight..."

To be honest, at this moment, Xia Mu seemed to see a traveler who had been lost in the desert for a long time seeing water, which made Xia Mu unable to help but put his hand on the drawstring of his pants at his waist.

Nemo's persistent behavior also touched Haruka and Shiyu, who had never seen anyone so eager to fight.

"Xia Mu, why don't you..."

Moved by Nemo, Ziyu tried to persuade Xia Mu.

But Xia Mu looked at Nemo with a somewhat disgusted expression.

"Ugh~ This seems really troublesome!"

Xia Mu had at least played Pokémon Saga, so he knew Nemo quite well.

The youngest champion-level trainer in the future of Padia, she relentlessly stalks the protagonist in the game, demanding battles. She is a battle maniac who will not give up until she achieves her goal. She is known as Nemo, the unwavering crush of the humanoid future species in the Padia region.

Wearing the summer uniform of Orange Academy, paired with black tights, a red wristband on her right hand, healthy tan skin, and a simple and neat ponytail, she gives the first impression of a passionate and energetic 'athlete'.

Of course, judging from Nemo's behavior of immediately turning into a sick chicken after her brief tussle with Tire Meow, it's clear that her stamina is actually quite poor.

However, this guy has an unusual fondness for battling, so Xia Mu is worried that after he agrees, this guy will pester him and battle Pokémon with him day and night.

"I'm a man with a proper job, I wouldn't..."

"I'll pay!"

"Come on, my life is dedicated to Pokémon battles!"

Xia Mu instantly pulled out a Poké Ball and struck a battle pose.

Seeing Natsuki's performance, Nemo glanced at Haruka beside her with surprise, and then, seemingly finding some strength, quickly got up from the lawn.

"I know there's a battlefield nearby, let's hurry!"

"Let me make this clear first, it's not cheap to have me fight!"

"It's okay, my family is actually quite wealthy!"

Nemo patted her chest, revealing an extremely excited expression.

After waiting for so long... finally!

Nemo didn't really know why she felt an urge to fight Natsuki after seeing him, but ever since that one glance at the table and airport, a certain thought had been lingering in Nemo's mind.

Who knows... this man might become my formidable rival!

Driven by this idea, Nemo chased after him all the way from the airport to Orange Academy.

While leading the way for Xia Mu, Nemo excitedly said, "Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm just an ordinary student. My family is actually quite wealthy. The Rotom phone that caused such a huge stir a while ago was a product of my family's company..."

"Although it hasn't been released yet, I actually have some test units on hand. If you have a good time playing with them later, how about I give you one?"

Xia Mu's eyes lit up.

"Okay, okay!"

Seeing the fighting spirit in Xia Mu's eyes, Nemo, while increasingly looking forward to fighting Xia Mu, also looked at Xiaoyao and Ziyu.

"I'll have someone bring you phones later, and you'll get yours too! Please don't refuse, after all, you've been a great help to me!"

If it weren't for Xiaoyao's reminder, Nemo felt that Natsuki wouldn't have accepted her challenge so easily.

Not to mention, Nemo also had the idea of ​​fighting against Ziyu and Xiaoyao at this time.

Seeing Nemo's sincere expression, Xiaoyao and Ziyu exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement.

"Then we won't stand on ceremony!"

"Thank you, Nemo!"

Nemo waved her hands repeatedly in response to Xiaoyao and Ziyu's thanks.

"Don't be shy, I'd love to play against you all!"

……

Under these circumstances, Xia Mu and the others arrived at a battlefield.

"Shall we play a 6v6 match?"

Under Nemo's expectant gaze, Xia Mu scratched his head.

"I only have five Pokémon available for battle right now..."

"Then let's go 5v5!"

???

Seeing Nemo's excited expression, Xia Mu felt as if he had been tricked.

Xia Mu's original plan was to have either Cat or Snake Sister fight a match and then end the battle.

But because of Nemo's sudden suggestion, he inexplicably settled on a 5V5 match format.

Moreover, Natsuki felt a strange sense of familiarity with Nemo's behavior.

At this moment, Xia Mu seemed to see Zhou Shuren, who could say anything, standing in front of him again.

Human nature tends to favor compromise and moderation. For example, if you say, "This room is too dark, we need to open a window here," everyone will definitely object. But if you advocate tearing down the roof, they will compromise and agree to open a window.

Bargaining works the same way. If you want to buy something for 80 yuan, you have to ask for 30 or 50. Of course, if the other party is eager to shout "sell," that's none of my business; I'm just saying it.

Xia Mu shook his head, banishing the strange image from his mind.

"I've traveled a long way, so I can only fight 2v2 battles at most!"

"no problem!"

Nemo readily agreed.

I told you it would turn out like this!

Xia Mu seemed to see Zhou Shuren, with a cigarette in his mouth, emerging from a strange corner again.

However, just as Xia Mu was frantically beating up the figure in his mind who was shouting "I was just saying that," Zi Yu had already walked to the referee's position.

"So, next up is a 2v2 battle between Nemo and Natsuki. The match ends when all of one side's Pokémon are unable to battle. Is that alright?"

"I'm fine!"

Nemo, brimming with fighting spirit, pulled out a Poké Ball.

"I'll go first! Go, Electric Petrel!"

"Thud!!"

A yellow and black bird-like Pokémon with a long red beak, standing over 1.4 meters tall, appeared on the battlefield. Upon seeing this, May immediately pulled out her Pokédex.

[Giant Airpuff, a Frisbee Pokémon, is of the Electric/Flying type. It enhances its electric power by inflating its throat pouch, allowing it to fly up to 700 kilometers in a single day with the help of the wind.]

Chapter 242 Woman, You've Lost to Me by Too Much

Upon hearing the information broadcast in the Pokédex, Haruka looked at the Electric Petal in the distance and fell into deep thought.

"Among Xia Mu's Pokémon, Electric and Flying types... it's more advantageous to bring out a Claydol!"

After considering the Pokémon that Natsuki currently has, May made a decision.

According to May, when Claydol is standing on the ground, it is immune to Electric-type moves, and Flying-type moves are only moderately effective against it. It can even fly to avoid being kited.

Therefore, it was the most reasonable thing for Xia Mu to do to send out the clay giant.

Xiaoyao's prediction was correct. Under normal circumstances, Natsuki would also choose to let the Clay Giant deal with the Giant Electric Seagull in front of him.

Unfortunately, this is not a typical situation.

"Meow!"

Cat, who had been itching to beat Nemo up, jumped into the arena and bared its sharp fangs at Big Electric Seagull.

"Oh, it's a Grass-type Tilleyme? You don't have a type advantage!"

"Hmph, I, Xia, am known as the master of reverse attributes. A mere attribute disadvantage is nothing to me!"

Although somewhat surprised by the cat's challenge, Xia Mu remained tight-lipped.

After hearing what Xia Mu said, the cat's fighting spirit soared even higher.

Seeing this, Zi Yu immediately waved her hand.

"Then... let the battle begin!"

Under the unspoken rule of sending out the first Pokémon to attack, Nemo immediately waved her right hand and shouted out her command.

"Two wings!"

Twin Wings, a flying skill, uses wings to strike the opponent, dealing damage twice, basically equivalent to a double slash or double kick.

Judging from the charging motion of the giant electric seagull, Xia Mu could tell that it was preparing to use its wings to knock Tire Meow away before launching a second attack.

"Magic Leaf!"

"Meow!"
