Pokémon development strategy

When the accelerator is pressed, the power feedback quickly follows after a short delay. Miss Skirt adds a layer of "growth" effect, and the speed of the Lamborghini is already ranked in the middle echelon of C-class cars.

This performance is more than enough for hauling goods, but it is far from enough for participating in competitions.

"Wait until I rescue Porygon, then we can all join the competition together!"

'Um! ’

Entering the outer section of the Ruins Valley, Shen Qi put the Poké Ball in his pocket.

That was the Poké Ball that Chansey lived in, and it was now an empty shell.

Because the mental fluctuations of Chansey are recorded, trainers can sense the positions of Pokémon through the Poké Ball.

The stronger the mental power, the higher the degree of fit, and the better the quality of the ball, the larger the sensing range.

Shen Qi only had a very common Poké Ball in his hand, which he bought for 200b. He was a little worried that he wouldn't be able to find the Pokémon after wandering around for two or three days.

Chapter 144 Going into the Mountains to Search

auspicious!

The red glow of the sunset shone through the gaps between the trees, and a chubby pink Pokémon jumped out of the bushes.

"Jelly Egg! I finally found you."

Fortunately, she sent Jigglypuff into the Valley of Ruins yesterday and didn’t walk too far, otherwise it would have been difficult to find.

Because they had only been separated for a day, Chansey was very confused as to why his trainer was in such a hurry to come to the Valley of Ruins.

Originally thinking that something had happened at home, Jilidan saw the mountaineering bag on Shen Qi's back and quickly realized what had happened.

'Shen Qi wants to practice with me!'

"Ah... No, I want to find something in the Ruins Valley. Are you familiar with the road conditions nearby?"

When he first met Shen Qi, Jilidan's strength was limited and he had never entered the deep areas of the Ruins Valley. Now his combat power has improved a lot and he is going deeper and deeper.

But...I have never heard of the name "Point Acupoint".

The Cave of Point is the name given to a cave in the game. In real life, it is estimated that only a few people know about it, and wild Pokémon and Chansey certainly have no way of knowing it.

Moreover, in the game, the entrance to the Point Cave is exposed on the ground, very obvious, and located directly in the center of the entire ruins valley, like a hill with a hole opened.

The reality is definitely not as simple as the pixel-style game textures.

"Well... let's put it this way."

After searching in the mountains for most of the day, Shen Qi had already predicted that if he directly mentioned the "point of the acupoint", Ji Lidan would probably not have any impression of it, so he thought of a simpler expression.

"I want to go to the location where the last super storm broke out."

Three months was not enough for the vegetation to recover to its original state, and the terrain that was blown out into a deep pit could not be coordinated with the surrounding area in a short period of time. That place was always easy to find.

auspicious!

Jilidan said that he actually went to the sub-center area affected by the storm and knew the approximate location.

"That's good."

It took a lot of time to search for the lucky eggs today. It’s getting dark and it’s difficult to continue moving. I’ll find a place to rest first.

It was pitch black in the collapsed tree hole, and Shen Qi leaned against the soft and elastic Jigglypuff.

"You usually practice in the mountains. What do you do at night without any lighting tools?"

'Find a place to stay in advance and rest at night.'

Some Pokémon in the mountains have night vision, and some have fire and electric skills that can emit light. Chansey can sometimes also use the light source to move around at night.

'Why did Shen Qi want to investigate the Valley of Ruins?'

"Do you remember the mysterious phone call incident that Li Yizi mentioned?"

At Guandu Radio in Ziyuan Town, Jilidan followed Shen Qi to listen to what happened to Li Yizi in the high-end resort and remembered it very clearly.

With this premise, the subsequent story will flow smoothly.

When facing Chansey, Shen Qi's attitude was the same as when he was telling Miss Qun'er. He didn't need to consider too many issues like the source of information that couldn't be explained. There was absolute trust between the trainer and the Pokémon.

When it comes to information about Porygon, Shen Qi only needs to say that he has a "special sense". This is indeed the case. Chansey also knows that Shen Qi can deeply understand the psychological state of Pokémon under certain conditions.

"So and so...it's now like this."

What needs to be done is that the Security Agency has begun searching the mountains and forests inside the 5th Island. The Rocket Team’s warehouse is also there, so Shen Qi cannot rush over to look for Porygon.

There is a high probability that Team Rocket has been here in the Valley of Ruins, and Porygon was brought here.

"Just find some relevant objects, any random thing will do, as long as it can point to Team Rocket's actions."

auspicious…

Jilidan didn't ask why Shen Qi knew all this, she just felt it was a bit difficult.

Although three months is not enough time for plants to cover the large hole caused by the super storm, it is enough to cover up the small traces of human activities.

"So it depends on Miss Skirt."

As a grass-type Pokémon, Miss Skirt has a special sense of the surrounding plants. When she gets close, even if there are abnormal objects hidden under the plants, they will still be discovered.

auspicious!

Jigglypuff, who often practices in the Valley of Ruins, is familiar with many local Pokémon, so you can ask them.

'Because I have rescued many Pokémon, everyone loves me very much.'

Jigglypuff described that if a wild Pokémon passing by saw her practicing, they would definitely not come up to disturb her. Instead, they would just take a detour, or even go in a big circle.

"Oh, they are so polite to me. I feel embarrassed."

"I think your understanding...is seriously flawed."

After a night's rest and a day's journey on the mountain road, when the sun rose high the next day, Jigglypuff finally brought Shen Qi and Miss Qun'er to the secondary center of the super energy storm a few months ago.

There were no horrifying charred marks left by explosions such as fire and lightning. One could only feel that the surrounding plants were smaller than those in the outer circle, and the ground was more solid.

The energy fluctuations of the super-energy system alone can cause the air flow to explode and compress the surface soil more compactly... This result is already terrifying, and its intensity is no less than that of a conventional big bang.

Gudonggudong…

There was a sound like a hard object rolling on a wooden table, and a brown ellipsoid with two small legs stood at the edge of the bushes.

Acorn

A pure grass-type Pokémon, its name comes from the fruit of the oak tree. Its appearance does resemble an oak seed that has been enlarged to the size of a soccer ball. The fruit stem on its head is shaped like a bowl, like a hat.

'Ah, an acorn.'

As Jigglypuff called out, Acorn's eyes suddenly widened and he shrank back into the grass with a whoosh.

"Ah." Jigglypuff shook his head with a loving smile, "They are afraid of disturbing my practice. It's not good to be too respectful."

"Did you give him a massage? He was so scared."

'No, I gave a massage to his friend and he was just watching.'

"Isn't that even more terrifying—"

Fortunately, as both are Grass-type Pokémon, Miss Skirt quickly stepped forward and successfully communicated with the Acorn.

The new content is nothing more than whether there are humans coming and going in this area before and after the super storm occurs, and those people are very likely to be wearing relatively uniform clothing.

Acorn said that he seldom came to the depths of the Ruins Valley. He happened to be outside when the super energy storm broke out. He had not dared to come in for a long time and was not very clear about the situation.

After expressing his gratitude, Shen Qi tried to ask a few wild Pokémon but received no useful answers.

Woo~~~boo↑

With a series of bubbling sounds, the blue figure swayed and approached to five meters away from the camp.

It's Woop, a very common Pokémon on the Seven Islands.

When playing games before, Shen Qi had no idea about Wooper's personality. It was only during the past six months since he traveled through time that he discovered that this type of Pokémon particularly likes to be close to people.

Once they see humans stationed or gathering, they will try to come over and ask for something to eat.

More importantly, she didn't recognize Chansey and was only staring at a small bag of elf rations.

auspicious…

After feeding, Jigglypuff shook his head to indicate no.

Wooper hadn't seen any human trainers, and his ability to express himself was limited, and he could only convey some basic communication content of wild Pokémon.

Shen Qi did not show disappointment, but instead had a new idea.

"Ask him if there are any larger lakes or bodies of water nearby!"

Chapter 145 Abnormal Water Level

The game map is concise and to the point. There is no water in other areas of the Ruins Valley, and only the Point Cave is surrounded by water on three sides.

The specific pattern may not be correct, but Shen Qi had asked Jilidan in advance. She had never seen any water area that could be called a lake during her years of hard training in the Valley of Ruins. At most, there were some small pools and streams.

Today, I searched for it, but I only saw Woof, a water-type Pokémon. I have to ask her about it.

Woo~bo!

Wu Bo chewed her rations and jumped twice on the spot. She was happy to go take a bath in the lake with everyone.

"Jilin, let's ask clearly, otherwise we won't find out it's just a small pond when we get there."

Shen Qi gently stroked Wu Bo, and it felt cool and smooth, like a cephalopod like a squid.

I am very grateful for Wu Bo's kindness, but unfortunately if the place she mentioned was just a pond, it would be a wasted trip.

It has been three days since entering the Valley of Ruins, and Shen Qi didn't want to delay too long.

Wu Bo rubbed the outside of Shen Qi's arm, responding to Jilidan's question.

'She said it was a very big lake and it would take half a meal to swim around it.'

It doesn't sound very big, but Wooper is a water-type Pokémon and its swimming speed is definitely faster than that of ordinary fish, so it's obviously not a small pond.

"Are there other Pokémon in there?"

'There are horned goldfish, Magikarp, and other Woopers.'

"It's right!"

Are there any aquatic Pokémon in the lake? Goldfish and Magikarp are common species in the Seven Islands.

“Is there a place like a cave in the middle of a lake there?”

Jigglypuff tried to ask, but Wu Bo narrowed his black bean-like eyes and shook his head to indicate no.

That’s not a problem, the point is not in the middle of the lake, but is surrounded by lake water on three sides and connected to the land on one side.

Wu Bo stayed in the camp tonight.

The next morning, Shen Qi rewarded her with another meal of elf rations, and Wu Bo happily led everyone to the lake.

"It's really too dangerous..."

Shen Qi looked at the innocent Wu Bo in front of him.

This wild Pokémon is not wary of humans.

It is legal for trainers to catch Pokémon in the wild, but the Pokemon League and the Ranger League prohibit large-scale capture to prevent damage to the Pokémon ecosystem. If an evil organization or poacher comes along, they can destroy Wooper's home with the cost of a pack of Pokémon rations.

After walking for half an hour, you can hear the sound of water lapping against the shore in the distance.

It is definitely not the gentle tinkling sound of a small stream or pond.

The humidity in the air increased and the sand under my feet became moist.

Ubo said it wasn't like this before...

Her ability to express herself is limited. After analysis, Jigglypuff roughly explained that the lake water was stable before, and the overflow turbulence phenomenon occurred only after the super storm.

Yeah!

Miss Skirt gave a hint that she sensed something foreign beneath the vegetation.

Pushing aside the newly grown short grass, a patch of black cloth covered with sand appeared between the branches and leaves.
