Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

In Chapter 26, besides the Mouth Kid, did the others also riot?

After receiving the mission, Haoyan did not set off immediately.

Instead, they purchased a large quantity of gold spray in the city of Kanaz.

The Golden Spray emits a scent that wild Pokémon dislike.

It keeps weaker Pokémon away.

Essential items for traveling.

To be on the safe side, Haoyan also bought a large quantity of chocolate in Kanaz City.

Maw of Venus likes to eat these tree fruits, so maybe throwing them out at a crucial moment could attract Maw of Venus's attention.

After making all the preparations, Haoyan set off for Wudou Town.

... ...

On a hot summer day, the cool sea breeze feels very comfortable on the skin.

Hao Yan is currently on a passenger ship bound for Wudou Town.

It's still May, and the seawater is still a bit cold; it's not tourist season.

The passenger ship business isn't doing very well.

During the boat trip, Haoyan found the boat owner, who had a worried expression on his face.

“Under normal circumstances, even outside of peak tourist season, many trainers still come to challenge the Martial Arts Dojo.”

"But now, with Master Tengshu gone and the dojo closed, there are hardly any outsiders coming in, making business difficult!" the boatman sighed.

"Director Teng Shu isn't here? Where did he go?" Hao Yan asked.

Dojo owners can allocate a portion of local taxes to cover the dojo's daily operating expenses.

They also receive a special allowance from the league every year.

In addition to helping the league screen potential trainers, they also have to take on some local security work.

"Curator Tengshu went to Dr. Oda Scroll to help investigate what happened in the Stone Cave, but unfortunately, they still haven't found the problem!" the boatman replied with a sigh.

Haoyan comforted the boatman for a few moments, and then asked him some more questions about the Stone Cave and the Big Mouth Kid.

The passenger ship also arrived at Wudou Town.

... ...

Wudou Town is a beautiful island.

It has great surfing spots and beautiful, soft sandy beaches.

After Haoyan disembarked, he saw that the surrounding shops were deserted due to the incident involving the Mouth Boys, which had caused a significant decrease in tourists.

All doors and windows were closed, and business was slow.

Haoyan wasted no time, shouldered his backpack, and headed straight for the Stone Cave to investigate.

... ...

The Stone Cave is actually a karst cave.

Because of the unique topography of the karst cave, many strange and wonderful sights have been created inside. People who come to Wudou Town for tourism usually stop by the cave for a visit.

It's a pretty good tourist attraction.

Because of the riots caused by the Big Mouth Kid, few people went there, and the once bustling tourist attractions became deserted.

As they approached the cave entrance, the baby ball tucked at their waist began to sway slightly.

Haoyan pressed the Poké Ball and released the two Pokémon.

"Haoyan, there's an aura here that I don't like." As soon as Lucario appeared, it spoke to Haoyan through its Aura.

"An aura I don't like?" Hao Yan's handsome brows furrowed slightly.

Before this, Haoyan had a rough idea that something inside the Stone Cave must have undergone a change, which caused the Pokémon to become frenzied.

Unexpectedly, even before officially entering the cave, Lucario could already sense that this 'anomaly' was emitting considerable energy.

"Xiao Ou, can you sense exactly what it is that you dislike?" Hao Yan pressed.

Lucario paused, seemingly trying to figure out how to describe it.

“It’s very hot inside…” Kirlian, standing nearby, added to help Lucario.

“Yes, it’s very hot!” Lucario nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Kirlia’s words.

"It's hot?" Hao Yan was a little confused. The weather in May was relatively cool and not hot.

Then, after asking a couple more questions, neither Lucario nor Kirlia could give a specific answer.

Spraying himself with a lot of golden spray, Hao Yan, along with his two Pokémon, began to enter the cave.

... ...

The cave wasn't particularly dark.

Because this place has been developed into a tourist attraction, there are some lights illuminating the surrounding area.

Haoyan, with his two Pokémon, had only taken a few steps.

Two Mawed Babies suddenly appeared from the side, and upon spotting the intruders, they looked ready to attack.

Pokémon: Mawile

[Attribute]: Steel, Fairy

[Level]: 15

【Ability】: Mighty Claws (Attack stat changes cannot be reduced by the opponent in any way.)

[Introduction]: Mawile has a yellow, doll-like body, but don't be fooled by his cute face. On his head grows a large mandible that evolved from horns, which he can bite down on when his opponent is not paying attention!

... ...

"Xiao Ou will use her strength to deal with the one on the left, and Xiao Lu will use hypnosis to control the one on the right." Hao Yan took the initiative.

Because he saw ferocity in Maw of Fowl's red eyes.

Clearly, these two big-mouthed kids are on the verge of going berserk.

Upon receiving the order, Lucario acted swiftly, launching a rapid attack on a Mawile.

The effect is outstanding!

Maw of Venom, hit by Lucario, was immediately stunned and passed out.

Kirlia placed her hands on her chest, emitting halos of light, hypnotizing the other Mawile that was about to launch an attack.

Having already dealt with the two Mawile Pokémon, Hao Yan was preparing to lead the two Pokémon further inside when...

However, they discovered that several other Pokémon had appeared around the cave.

These Pokémon seemed to have heard the sounds of the fight and began searching for the source of the noise.

Their condition was the same as the two big-mouthed babies who had just fallen to the ground.

His eyes were filled with ferocity!

"Damn, wasn't it supposed to be just the Maw Kids rioting? How come they're doing this too!"

... ...

Chapter 27 Exploring the Stone Cave Where the Anomaly Occurred

In the dim light of the Stone Cave, seventeen pairs of eyes emitting a red glow appeared.

A hint of ferocity emanated from all those eyes.

Besides Maw of Fowl, there's also Cocodora, and even an evolved form of Cocodora, Cocodora!

Its level is significantly higher than the surrounding Pokémon, reaching level 33.

Upon seeing the 'intruder,' these Pokémon immediately rushed towards Haoyan's direction.

With so many of them, being targeted by concentrated fire is no laughing matter!

As these Pokémon charged towards him, Haoyan pulled out a Poké Ball and recalled Lucario.

He scooped up Kirlia in his arms: "Kirlia, use Teleport to get into the cave!"

Kirullian was already prepared, waving her hands as energy surged within her.

shuh~

It appeared 30 meters behind these Steel-type Pokémon.

"Xiao Lu, get ready, then continue using teleportation!"

As soon as they landed, Haoyan quickly picked up Kirulian and started running into the cave.

The Steel-type Pokémon quickly realized it had lost its target.

They turned their guns around, intending to continue their attack on Haoyan.

Unfortunately, they were all quite heavy, making it difficult for them to turn around in a short time.

Taking advantage of this moment, Haoyan had already run nearly 20 meters.

A few seconds later, Kirlia used Teleport once again, completely disappearing from the sight of the group of Steel-type Pokémon.

... ...

"Whoo~"

After escaping the pursuit of the group of Steel-type Pokémon, Hao Yan released Lucario again, and he and Kirlia cautiously kept watch around the area.

"Little Lucario, are you alright?" Hao Yan asked with some concern, noticing that Lucario had been suppressing a violent rage with reason since entering the cave, and this rage only intensified as they went deeper.

"That aura that I hate is getting stronger and stronger!" Lucario responded somewhat uncomfortably.

"Okay, you can go back to your Poké Ball and rest first." Hao Yan took out a Poké Ball and put Lucario back in.
