Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

She had brought these Pokémon through several tests set by Alola captains. Although their attributes might be a bit simple, their strength was unquestionable.

In the Alola region, because the people are too simple, there is neither alliance nor the concept of gyms.

In contrast, there are people called "Captains" who set tests to assess trainers. Therefore, in Alola, Captains are equivalent to Gym Leaders in other regions.

As a trainer who has passed several tests, Miyue is of course a little dissatisfied with Qiao Ran's attitude.

Besides... among her peers, Mitsuki has always regarded herself as a "genius". Her journey has been smooth sailing. She even encountered the island's mythical beast on the day of her departure and received a treasure from the island god. In addition, she also met many extraordinary people and got to know the eldest daughter of the Ether Foundation... Deep down, she even felt that she might be the heroine.

The legends she experienced in one month of travel were far more than many people experienced in their entire lives.

"I want to see your Pokémon, too."

Meiyue looked straight at Qiao Ran, and it seemed that nothing she said would change her mind.

"Ok."

Qiao Ran shrugged. Since it was a pre-war mobilization, he certainly needed to release his Pokémon to let Miyue know his fighting power.

Maybe this girl will come up with some unexpected plan.

"She starts with—come out, Vulpix!"

Qiao Ran took out the first Poké Ball, and with a flash of light, a snow-white little beast appeared in his arms.

"Are you feeling better now?"

Qiao Ran caressed her body and asked about her condition.

"Mmmmm..." Vulpix stretched comfortably, indicating that his condition had adjusted. Although he might not have recovered to his peak state, he was able to return to the battle.

"Alola Vulpix! Ah... so cute, you've raised her so well, the sheen of her fur... and that tail..."

Seeing Alola's specialty Pokémon, Mitsuki's eyes lit up. She couldn't help but want to reach out and touch Vulpix, but Vulpix dodged away very nimbly.

"Sorry, this child may be a little shy."

Qiao Ran smiled helplessly. Liuwei had never been close to anyone except him. Even with Eve, who had "traveled" with him for a period of time, Liuwei still disliked her and even felt a little disgusted with her.

"It's okay, it's okay... Pokémon all have different personalities. By the way, do you want some water?"

Meiyue waved her hand and handed over a bottle of water, telling Qiao Ran not to worry about such things. She also dealt with Pokémon frequently, so it was better to let them do what they wanted at times like this.

"No, I'm not very thirsty yet."

Qiao Ran refused the bottle of water handed to him by Meiyue. He might have to execute the battle plan soon. What if he drank too much water and needed to go to the bathroom? He couldn't ask those Xuwu Yide to stop for a moment, could he?

"Then what comes next is..."

Qiao Ran took out the second Poké Ball, and after a flash of light, Qiao Ran's Qixi Bluebird appeared in the air.

Before, Qiao Ran

She wanted her to catch her in mid-air, but before she could make a move, Qiao Ran was caught by other Pokémon.

"clear--!"

"Oh my god! The Tanabata Golden Bird! It's actually golden!!"

Mitsuki was startled by the sudden appearance of this Dragon-type Pokémon, her mouth hanging open in an O shape. This was the first time she had ever seen a golden Tanabata Bluebird, so her voice was filled with unconcealed amazement and envy. How lucky must one be to encounter a Pokémon that represents such happiness!

It was only the second Pokémon, but Mitsuki's resentment had already dissipated by more than half. This Tanabata Bluebird... was indeed qualified to stand out from the crowd.

Not all Pokémon are born shiny, and not all Pokémon shine so beautifully when they do.

"Then what comes next is..."

As Qiao Ran spoke, he took out another Poké Ball from his waist. However, when he got half of it, he reached back and took out the next ball.

"It's too troublesome to take them one by one, so let's all come out together."

"What Pokémon is it?"

Miyue picked up the bottle of water in her hand and took a sip, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Come out!—Suicune! Diancie!"

"puff!"

Mitsuki gushed out right there and then.

Water...what is water?

Chapter 74 072 [Hunting: Strategy]

For a moment, Mitsuki even imagined that she might have misheard, and that what the other party had just said might be a Pokémon like Blastoise, Aqualad, and Vaporeon. However, when she actually saw the light solidify, she truly lost all her words.

"Sui...Suicune...it's really Suicune!"

The aloof and proud messenger of the north wind appeared in this dark space. Her raised head and the ribbons fluttering around her body revealed her identity.

Not only that, Mitsuki also saw a small figure next to Suicune.

——It was a rather petite Pokémon, seemingly less than one meter tall, but her presence was no weaker than Suicune's, perhaps even stronger, especially the pink diamond on her head.

"Di… Diancie… Diancie!"

Mitsuki cried out while holding her cheeks. As a girl who grew up in the Pokémon world, she had obviously heard the legend of Diancie. Or rather, most girls had heard the legend of Diancie when they were young. They all had at least some admiration for this cute and noble Pokémon.

"Wait...wait, let me catch my breath. Am I hallucinating...?"

Mitsuki took a few deep breaths of air and then gulped down several gulps of water. However, even after doing so much, she still couldn't calm down her current mood.

This boy... who the hell is this boy? !

Why is it that this guy can pull out legendary Pokémon just by searching?

Although Mitsuki's horizons were already broad, she had already met the island god of Alola at the beginning of her journey and received treasures from the island god, but... being able to capture legendary Pokémon and travel with them as her companions was something Mitsuki had never dared to imagine.

Why can humans be with God?

Moreover, if you capture it, you can feed the god every day... and even bathe him?!

As Miyue was thinking, her eyes suddenly became blurry. The amount of information was so overwhelming that she felt like she was being overloaded.

There was no other way, so Miyue lay down on the bed and covered her head with the Pippi doll, trying to calm herself down.

"Don't be like that. Even though they are legendary Pokémon, their current strength isn't very strong. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen down just now."

Qiao Ran looked at Meiyue, who was lying on the bed and had burned out, with a helpless expression on his face.

In his own world, he only met a group of people who didn't know what was good, but now it seems... being too knowledgeable might not be a good thing.

"Eh? Your strength...isn't strong?"

Hearing Qiao Ran's words, Meiyue raised her head in surprise. She seemed a little confused about what these words meant.

"Although they are Legendary Pokémon, they are not mature Legendary Pokémon. Most people may not know this, but Legendary Pokémon can actually reproduce..."

Qiao Ran gave his own reasons, which were also the explanations he had prepared beforehand. Facing these people from the Pokémon world, he certainly couldn't tell lies like "caught it in the back mountain". He could only give Diancie and the others a story about their life as "divine beast babies".

However, when Qiao Ran said this, especially when he mentioned that "Legendary Pokémon can also reproduce", he suddenly felt that there were several pairs of eyes behind him staring at him, and this feeling made him feel flustered.

Qiao Ran pondered for a moment, but still didn't quite understand.

I think I was right, right? Legendary Pokémon can reproduce, right? Why are you staring at me like that...?

"Is that... true? So Legendary Pokémon can also give birth to babies."

Meiyue nodded blankly, saying that she had learned something new. She didn't really understand this aspect before, or... there weren't many people in this world who could do this.

You can find out how the legendary Pokémon reproduce.

"Anyway, let's not talk about these things for now. Our first priority is to defeat that Xuwuid and rescue Lillie."

Qiao Ran rubbed his aching temple. The topic had gone a little off topic. They were here to discuss a battle plan, not how to have a baby.

"Yes... yes, we have to rescue Liliae first!"

Talking about Lillie, Mitsuki suddenly became energetic again. She turned over in bed and stood up straight. As a woman who had lived in Alola, her physical fitness was indeed much better than others.

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Qiao Ran also patted his cheek and analyzed the current situation.

"What we need to do now is to defeat the black Xuwuid. In other words, our goal from the beginning to the end is only one. As long as we defeat that one, our goal will be achieved."

"However, that Xuwuid is very special. She has the ability to command other Xuwuids. In other words, if we can't quickly defeat her after encountering her, we will inevitably face the consequences of being besieged by countless Xuwuids."

Qiao Ran recalled the previous battle. He felt that the main reason for his failure was that he prolonged the battle and allowed other Xuwuyides to interfere in the battle. With other Xuwuyides acting as meat shields, that guy was simply invincible.

"So, if we want to win, we must shorten the battle to the shortest possible duration. To achieve this goal... our skill selection must also be optimized."

"Uh-huh."

Meiyue nodded and listened carefully to Qiao Ran's analysis. She suddenly realized that this boy was not only very special in Pokémon, but also had a very good brain.

"Xuwuidu's attributes are rock and poison, and their weaknesses lie in attack and defense. In other words, if we're considering the optimal solution, we should first choose ground-based physical attack skills, followed by steel, water, and psychic-based skills. If that's all that matters, special attacks can also be useful."

Qiao Ran looked into Meiyue's eyes seriously and asked the question that concerned him most.

"How many of these attributes' skills does your Pokémon have?"

"Um……"

Miyue bent her fingers, and finally raised one tremblingly.

“…One?” Qiao Ran looked at the finger and silently said WC in his heart.

"Well, it seems that only Super Bad Star here can use the move Hot Water... None of my other Pokémon have moves with these attributes... Sorry..."

Miyue lowered her head embarrassedly and poked her little hands. She didn't really want this to happen, but that was the reality.

Qiao Ran sighed inwardly. He had originally thought that he would meet a golden thigh this time, but he never expected that this person would actually be an extremely dedicated master of poison attributes.

"Never mind... Let's leave the main attack to Diancie and the others. As long as Diancie and the others can hit, we're already halfway to victory."

Qiao Ran felt that he should change his mindset... In the end, he could only rely on his old friends - they were the most reliable people.

Chapter 75 073 [Hunting: Siege]

After a period of discussion, Qiao Ran and Meiyue had basically come up with a feasible plan. Although Meiyue was still a little hesitant, Qiao Ran felt that this plan was worth a try.

——Although Qiao Ran doesn't like gambling, sometimes he has no choice but to decide whether to gamble. As the disadvantaged party, he is not qualified to make such a luxurious request.

"Okay... I don't have any other options, so I'll just do as you say."

After some thought, Meiyue finally agreed with Qiao Ran's opinion. Although this plan would put her in a very dangerous situation, she still held Qiao Ran's hand and nodded firmly.

"We must succeed this time!"

With a plan in mind, the two of them rode on the Qixi Bluebird and returned to the broken bridge from their location below.

As for why the tropical dragon was not chosen, the reason is actually very simple. The wings of the Qixi Bluebird are naturally silent and hidden. Compared with the oversized tropical dragon, it is more suitable for this kind of covert activity.

In the cold and gloomy Ether Foundation, there was no trace of any life activity. Qiao Ran and Meiyue moved forward carefully step by step, guarding against Xuwu Yide who might emerge from the shadows at any time.

After the operation began, the two had not communicated at all, because they knew that they had to seize this opportunity.

The petite Meiyue hid in the shadow of the bridge and moved forward stealthily. Soon, she entered the spacious room - this was the place where Qiao Ran had been before. There were still several large transparent containers in the center of the room.

Miyue walked forward without saying a word, and the direction she was heading was towards the containers in the center.

However, just as she was about to reach her destination, her eyes suddenly focused, and she suddenly took out an opened can from the bag behind her back and threw it hard to the ground.

"Kou Dang——!!! Kou Dang——

! ! Word of mouth! "

The can bounced several times on the ground, making an incredibly loud noise in the originally quiet and empty room, and the sound continued to echo.

In an instant, the crystals on the walls of the room gradually lit up, a strange aura began to spread, and a solemn atmosphere filled every corner of the room.

White jellyfish floated out from the shadows, reflecting dots of fluorescence in the darkness. It was obvious that the noise made by Meiyue attracted many Xuwuides. As soon as they appeared, they began to approach Meiyue.

——Mizuki’s alluring body is attracting them.

"Come on... come quickly..."

Mitsuki's steps were still moving towards the central container, but her eyes were fixed on the door.

"..."

Finally, when she silently counted "seven" in her heart, the figure she had been waiting for actually appeared at the door and floated over from the other side.

——It was a huge black Xuwuid, with a beautiful girl wrapped in the middle, and the girl’s face was full of evil smiles.

"Lily... Ai...!"
