Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off.

Meanwhile, at Oki's research lab.

Azure, who was moving energy cubes in the warehouse, suddenly sneezed.

"Who's talking about me? Never mind, I've got so many energy cubes just sitting there, might as well make use of them, hehe!"

Beside her, a Bulbasaur extended its vines to help carry the load, gently swaying its head and shaking its head.

On the other end, Professor Oak waved his hand after hearing Natsuno's words: "Let her be."

Seeing Oki's nonchalant attitude, Natsuno secretly made up his mind.

I need to assign some tasks to that Azure when I have time, lest she actually be sold off by the research institute.

Suddenly remembering something, Daiki continued speaking.

"By the way, the alliance is launching an operation today against the masterminds behind that unscrupulous breeding group."

"I won't have to worry about being attacked by malicious attacks for no reason anymore."

As Daiki finished speaking, he patted Xiaocai's head, who was clinging to Xia Ye's leg and wouldn't let go.

"Also, even though you're not a professional trainer, you still need to improve your Pokémon's strength."

"After all, I never approved of Changqing being an undercover agent in the first place. You should at least have the ability to buy time so you can escape."

Natsuno nodded seriously: "I know that for the doctor, protecting oneself is the most important thing."

Under Anthony's guidance, Daiki began to examine the instruments in the research lab.

"Turu turu turu, turu turu turu~"

Xia Ye's phone rang, and the caller ID showed it was Grandma Jie Zilan. She quickly answered the phone.

"Xia Ye, are you free to answer the phone now?"

"Hello Grandma, I can answer your call anytime!"

On the other end of the phone, Jie Zilan laughed happily: "Good child, will you do Grandma a favor?"

Xia Ye thumped his chest loudly, "Your business is my business, so please tell me!"

"That's right, I saw Xuecheng post about your fossil resurrection research group's laboratory in the group chat."

"It's probably full of all sorts of fossil Pokémon eggs, right? I bet the Kanto and Hoenn ones are all in there, right?"

Xia Ye nodded: "That's right, Grandma has a sharp eye and a lot of knowledge. She saw it right away."

Mustard Orchid couldn't stop smiling: "Little Xia Ye, you're still so sweet-talking."

“We also have fossils of extinct Pokémon in our Sinnoh region, so you can’t be biased towards one over the other, Natsuno.”

"And there's also Little Yew and Magnolia; they all want to entrust you with the task of reviving the fossils from Unova and the Galar region."

Natsuno thought for a moment, then realized, "Oh, the Dr. Yew and Dr. Magnolia that Grandma was talking about."

Whenever Natsuno thinks of Galar, he thinks of the fossil Pokémon he saw on Earth, and his head starts to ache.

It's not stylistically accurate to put together body parts from two completely unrelated Pokémon!

This time, I'll take the initiative to piece together the correct body, so at least it will look more pleasing to the eye.

As a result, there are just too many fossils to be resurrected; it's impossible to keep track of them all.

"No problem, Grandma. Could you ask them if they want to revive the fossil locally or send it to Kanto?"

Jie Zilan on the other end of the phone laughed heartily.

"Oh, right, there's also Little Bratano; fossils related to it exist in the Carlos region as well."

"Everyone wants to witness the process of fossils coming back to life, so they all want to go to Kanto."

Natsuno was worried about having too many fossils to resurrect when the doctors suddenly wanted to come over.

"That's great! I'll remind Daigo to make the arrangements. Everyone, come over here and let's work on it together!"

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with his grandmother, Natsuno hung up the phone and pulled Daigo aside.

When the latter heard that the PhD students all wanted to have a team-building event in Kanto, and that the location was in Devon, Daigo couldn't stop smiling.

Seeing Daigo beaming with joy as he personally made the arrangements, Natsuno was overjoyed.

The doctors are all coming to help revive the fossils, so does that mean I can slack off?

Beautiful!

Natsuno was having a good time when his phone suddenly rang.

"Natsuno-kun, I have something important to ask you to come to the Pewter Gym!"

Chapter 116 Xiao Gang cries for help; an unusually large Onix.

Xia Ye glanced at the caller ID; it was Xiao Gang.

"Master Gang, don't panic. Explain yourself. What happened?"

Xiao Gang's tone was somewhat urgent at this moment, like a machine gun firing seeds.

“Natsuno, it’s like this. Yesterday, I went to the Tsukimi Mine as usual and let the Onix eat some ore.”

"I didn't expect that after he came back, he became listless and even fell into a coma in the middle of the night."

“Joey and his team came but couldn’t find the problem, and in the end they could only suspect that it was a genetic issue.”

"You are an expert in the field of gene-related matters. Could you please come here? This is my lifelong request!"

After hearing Xiaogang's description, Xia Ye readily agreed: "Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"

He hung up the phone and quickly walked out the door: "Daigo, arrange a driver for me!"

It's best not to let Apollo escort you on this trip, since he's probably still touring the site right now.

"Ah!"

Apollo, who was in the corner of the arena reminiscing about the pterosaur's appearance, suddenly sneezed.

"Who's been talking about me? Or have I caught a cold?"

Apollo shook his head. Natsuno didn't call him, and he decided to continue waiting there.

In the research room, Daigo saw Natsuno's anxious expression and didn't dare to delay, quickly making arrangements.

"Natsuno, there's a traffic jam in front of the building right now. Go straight to the top floor and ride a flying Pokémon!"

Xia Ye nodded and put on sunglasses and a mask as he walked.

The person on the top floor had clearly been given special instructions, and in less than a minute, Natsuno rode away on a Metagross monster.

We landed at the airport on the outskirts of Deep Grey City and transferred to a private car from the Devon Group.

Half an hour later, Natsuno arrived at the entrance of the Dark Grey Gym.

A paper notice was posted at the entrance: Due to an unfortunate situation with Pokémon, Gym Leader battles will be suspended for 3 days. We will notify you in real time via the mini-program if there are any changes. We apologize for the inconvenience!

Xia Ye saw several dojo apprentices looking around at the entrance and went over to them.

Upon learning that it was Natsuno, the other party all showed expressions of admiration.

The next second, they all used their powerful arms to drag Natsuno into the dojo.

The dojo was bustling with noise, and the sounds of battles filled the air.

In each venue, gym apprentices battle against trainers to complete the selection test.

Walk all the way to the far end of the first floor of the dojo, where there is a very spacious room.

Natsuno saw a large rock snake curled up on the ground, motionless.

Xiao Gang looked worried at the moment, but became very excited when he saw Xia Ye arrive.

He immediately bowed to Natsuno and said, "Natsuno-kun, I am extremely grateful for your presence. Please take care of me!"

Xia Ye helped Xiao Gang up and looked at the 8-meter-long giant rock snake in front of him.

They began asking Xiaogang about specific details of the mine and Joey's professional diagnosis.

"The Onix Pokémon can absorb hard objects underground to make its body stronger."

“I used to take him to the mines at Mount Tsukimi every day for in-depth digging.”

"Even the route that the Onix uses to dig forward every day hasn't changed; the same passage is constantly being expanded."

Xia Ye nodded and ran to the side to check the information records of the relevant medical examination equipment.

There was no abnormal damage, and no abnormal energy source.

Natsuno stroked his chin thoughtfully: It seems that the possibility of genetic factors is extremely high.

Routine checks complete, time to unleash the power!

Just as Natsuno was about to call out to the system in his mind, he suddenly heard a "click-click-click" sound.

Looking towards the source of the sound, one could see the tail of the giant onyx, which was suddenly trembling slightly.

A moment later, everyone opened their eyes to Xiao Gang's surprised and delighted look.

"Onix, thank goodness, you're finally awake!"

Before Xiao Gang could even feel happy, Onix suddenly showed a pained expression.

The massive rocky body rolled wildly, letting out painful roars.

With quick reflexes, Xia Ye pulled Xiao Gang and retreated to a safe area.

"Bang bang bang!"

With each flick of its tail, something in the room would be smashed.

The commotion attracted a large crowd of onlookers.

Although Xiao Gang felt very sad seeing Onix in pain, he still tried his best to cheer up.

He shouted to disperse the onlookers, including apprentices and trainers: "Get out of here! It's dangerous! Jiro, evacuate them!"

At this moment, a boy whose face looked exactly like Xiao Gang's stepped forward to help Xiao Gang drive the people away.

Then, another person appeared who surprised Natsuno: Akane.
