Pokémon development strategy

"Uncle, I want to leave early today. Can I go to your place to load the goods in advance?"

"Okay, come early and have a good rest during the weekend. You have made three trips this week. Thank you for your hard work."

"okay."

Starting the Lamb, Shen Qi arrived at the market on the next street.

Don’t underestimate it because it’s just a van. The maximum load capacity of the Lamborghini is 700kg. In the eyes of people involved in transportation, this means a carrying capacity of more than one ton.

It was okay when loading the goods, as the neighbors at the market would help out. But once we arrived at the 5th Island Hotel or the luxury resort, there might not be anyone to help Shen Qi unload the goods, so it would take a lot of time.

For a 15-year-old boy, this was a huge expenditure of physical energy, so Shen Qi didn't dare to take on more work.

"Uncle, I'm leaving now."

"There's a lot of cargo today, so be careful on the road."

"Ok!"

The little sheep left the market, went out of the Marked Woods, and then to the Marked Mountain.

The overloaded transportation made the vehicle body a little heavy to operate on flat ground. After entering the mountain, Shen Qi could hear the mournful sound of the suspension structure from time to time, so he drove even more carefully.

Fortunately, there was little traffic on the offshore island after dark, and it was not yet time for the racers to race in the mountains, so the journey was smooth.

After unloading the goods at the high-end resort, Shen Qi, who was suffering from a sore back, took a short rest and immediately drove back.

Glance at the time on the dashboard.

20:33

It's early enough today.

When we got back to the trail mountain on the 6th island, it was already late at night. Shen Qi parked the scooter on the side of the road and waited quietly for the racers who were running in the mountains at night.

After about ten minutes, the roar of the engine came from far away.

A sports car with a cool paint job came whizzing by, and it slowed down slightly when passing the road near Shen Qi, but the driver did not roll down the window, and the sports car quickly drove away.

Then two sports cars chased each other and passed by.

It was not until the fourth mountain racing car arrived that it slowly stopped in the wild field beside the road.

The car window was rolled down and a giant crab was blowing bubbles.

Shen Qi had seen this car before. He was overtaken by it the first time he was transporting local products after traveling through time.

"Do you need help?"

The driver's door opened and a young man in sportswear got out. He was thin and about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

"Thank you, I'm fine." Shen Qi thanked him in return, "I'm the one who transports local products from the 6th island. I really envy the mountain racers."

"Don't just envy me. If you have a dream, try it. Any car can run in the mountains."

The other party introduced himself as Xia Yang, a swimming coach at the 5th Island Luxury Resort. He usually runs in the mountains for fun.

"I'm Shen Qi, a student at Elf High School."

"Student?" Xia Yang was stunned, then he began to admire her. "It's not easy for a student to do transportation."

"Life... By the way, I want to ask you something."

"what happened?"

"Among the mountain racers...are there any Pokémon drivers?"

Chapter 7: Jigglypuff

"Pokémon pilot...yes."

Shen Qiyuan thought this statement was strange, but Xia Yang's attitude was very normal.

"Look, those two are racing cars driven by Pokémon."

Following Xia Yang's guidance, the two racing cars that had driven past earlier returned and were almost moving forward at the same pace.

The side window of the car slightly behind was rolled down, and the Infernape inside made a provocative gesture.

In the other car, Kuai Quan Lang (Abi Lang) was furious and accelerated suddenly to stop the car.

The two cars stopped, and two Fighting-type Pokémon got out and started yelling at each other. Neither of them was willing to give in, so they pushed each other into the woods to fight.

"Good guy..." Shen Qi exclaimed.

Xia Yang explained, "Some racing drivers will let their Pokémon drive out to race in the mountains. Only by driving and using the skill slots themselves can they gain a deeper understanding of racing."

Such a Pokémon only needs to meet two conditions.

First, they are trained and know the rules of the road and the operation of machinery;

Second, he can drive, whether using his hands, feet, or telekinesis.

After training in autonomous driving, racing drivers and Pokémon will cooperate more closely.

Shen Qi knew very well that Miss Qun'er did not fall into this category. She had no owner, no so-called racer or trainer.

"Is there a situation where Pokémon is its own racer, running on the mountain by itself, without any human feeding and training behind it?"

"Uh..." Xia Yang thought for a moment, "Yes, the requirements for registered racers are lower than trainers. As long as they can communicate with humans through writing and pronunciation, and pass the racing license test, Pokémon can also be racers."

"Do we have such Pokémon on Island 6?"

"do not know."

For example, if you occasionally encounter Infernape and Abby while driving in the mountains, no one will ask whether they are ownerless Pokémon or have trainers to teach them.

"Shen Qi, why do you ask this?"

"Oh, it's like this. One time I was transporting goods at night and saw a Grass-type Pokémon driving alone, so I was curious."

"What grass-type Pokémon?"

"Miss Skirt."

"Hmm?" Xia Yang rolled his eyes, "What kind of Pokémon is this? I've never heard of it."

Indeed, there are almost no Miss Skirt in the wild, and the Lily Root Dolls before her evolution are not distributed in the Kanto region.

The students of the Pokemon High School only knew about this kind of Pokémon after they saw it with their own eyes after they enrolled.

"A grass-type Pokémon from another region looks like a little girl in a skirt."

"Skirt...little girl...and she is from another district..."

Xia Yang muttered the key words, "I have never seen Miss Skirt, but there is another Pokémon whose situation is very similar to what you described."

"what?"

Shen Qi was a little confused.

This 6th island...how come there is a second Pokémon from another area, a grass-type Pokémon that looks like a little girl in a skirt.

"Beautiful flower?"

"Of course not. We have walking grass in our native land. How could I not know the beautiful flower?"

Xia Yang held his forehead and thought, "Wait a minute, I have seen it once, that Pokémon introduced itself... What was its name... Sweet or something, also four words."

"The sweet and cold beauty queen?!"

"Yes! Your knowledge of Pokémon is quite extensive."

As if he didn't hear the other party's compliment, Shen Qi just felt that he was shocked.

After Sweet, Cold, and Beautiful, this Pokémon appeared in the seventh generation, in the distant Alola, Galar, and Padia regions.

With grass-style hair, leafy long hair, and a mangosteen-style short skirt, she looks like a noble queen.

However, there is a high probability that there is no sweet and cold queen on the 6th island, but it is Miss Qun'er who announced it to the public.

When Miss Skirt was racing, the big flower crown was taken off and replaced with a short skirt, which really matched the main elements of the sweet and cold beauty. They were all about one meter tall.

It is easy for the residents of the Seven Islands who have never seen the sweet, cold and beautiful Queen to be fooled.

Even if some of them searched the Internet for the illustrations of the sweet and cold queen... they couldn't tell that the girl in the short skirt and grass style was Miss Skirt.

Miss Skirt...hid her identity.

Shen Qi thought about it carefully. There was too little information. He could only roughly guess that Miss Qun'er concealed her identity to prevent her true character from being discovered. It might also be related to the death of her previous trainer.

"That skirt... When does the sweet and cold queen usually run in the mountains?"

"not sure."

Xia Yang took out a glass bottle of soda from the car, opened the bottle cap on the claws of the giant crab, and handed a bottle to Shen Qi.

"We mountain runners are very casual, maybe two or three times a week, and we don't run in any specific area. But Tian Lengmei will participate in some amateur events."

Having said that, it is impossible to say when and where the various drivers will participate in the competition.

"That's it..."

Having a pleasant chat, Shen Qi and Xia Yang exchanged contact information and added each other as friends on the social software.

Shen Qi also made a request, hoping that Xia Yang would notify him when he saw Tian Lengmei while driving.

"No problem, see you another day."

"okay."

After watching his new friend leave, it was already 22pm and Shen Qi had to go home and rest.

The night wind blew the grass leaves, and Infernape and Abby, with bruised faces and noses, suddenly jumped out of the grass, ran hurriedly to their respective cars, and drove away quickly.

Clearly, he went into the woods to fight, but it was as if he was discovered doing something embarrassing.

Moreover, Shen Qi noticed that their mouths were stuffed full, as if they had eaten a lot of food.

A pink Pokémon that was almost spherical squeezed out from the messy bushes.

Her height is about the same as Miss Qun'er, just over 1 meter, but because of her spherical body, this meter refers not only to her height but also to her "diameter".

Lucky egg!

A Normal Pokémon, according to the description in the illustrated manual, it is a rare and shy Pokémon that is said to bring luck to those who can catch it.

However, this Jigglypuff didn't seem to be afraid of strangers and was waving at the roadside.

"You want to...hitchhike?"

Shen Qi came closer, but Jigglypuff still showed no sign of fear and nodded with a natural, silly smile.

Because her whole body is spherical, her nodding affects her entire body, just like hitting a ball.

It was the first time I saw Jigglypuff up close in real life. Its pink, shiny, smooth skin and cute shape made me want to touch and pinch it.

"Come up."

Shen Qi suppressed the dangerous thought of being caught by the police station, opened the door of the passenger seat, and moved Jigglypuff in.

"Where are you going?"

Geely~~~~

Jigglypuff made the same standard cry as in the anime, and its two hot dog-like little hands pointed forward.

I don’t know where it is going exactly, it is in the opposite direction of Shen Qi’s home.

Considering that Chansey is mostly the companion Pokémon of medical staff, it should give her a ride.

The little sheep drove back along the way until it was outside the ruins valley, and then Jilidan gently pulled Shen Qi's sleeve with his little hand.

Good luck!

"Get off here?"

After confirming Jilidan's request, Shen Qi pulled over.

Jigglypuff fumbled in the pocket in front of his stomach and took out a large egg.

The illustrated guide states that this Pokémon can lay several eggs a day. These eggs are not only nutritious, but also seem to be very delicious. When it sees a Pokémon that is injured, it will share its nutritious eggs with the injured Pokémon.

"For me? Thank you."

Good luck!
