Wang Yao's Pokémon Journey

Except for the battle-crazed Sharptooth...which Pokémon can withstand such a test!

Chapter 136: Dark Gray City! And the mysterious guest at Xiaogang's house!

After resolving Xiaoxia's worries, Wang Yao set out from Hualan City again and embarked on a journey to Shenhui City.

Because he had Kentaro to help him this time, after crossing Yuejian Mountain, it only took Wang Yao an hour to return to Deep Gray City.

……

"I'm so sorry, the rooms at the Pokémon Center are full."

Wang Yao first brought Jingmei's gift to her cousin at the Pokémon Center in Deep Gray City.

However, due to the large number of tourists and trainers coming during the opening ceremony... Wang Yao had to find another place to stay for the next few days.

"It's okay. I'll leave Kentaro and the others to you, Miss Joy, to take care of them. I'll come pick them up tomorrow."

Wang Yao waved his hand indifferently and left Kentaro and Ponyta with Joey to recover their strength, while the luggage was kept by Coward.

Anyway, Xiaogang's house is very big, so they can easily spare one or two rooms for him to stay temporarily.

……

"This is the egg of a fossilized pterosaur..."

Arriving at Xiaogang's living room, Wang Yao picked up a Pokémon egg with a surface as rough as rock and looked at it carefully.

The exterior is gray like rock, with some purple stripes on it.

"How long until they hatch?"

Wang Yao asked Xiaogang curiously.

"Because fossilized pterosaur eggs are so rare, even Master Enidon cannot determine the exact hatching time."

Xiao Gang stroked his chin and answered uncertainly.

"But even if we estimate based on the eggs of young Kiras... they should hatch within forty weeks."

As a rock-type Pokémon, Baby Kiras has one of the longest growth cycles among Pokémon.

"Forty weeks... that's more than two hundred days - it's going to take that long!?"

Wang Yao calculated the number of days in his mind and was stunned.

"I thought it would only take a week or two! Wouldn't it be faster if I bring the eggs with me so they can hatch?"

In the game, you just need to ride a bike in front of the breeding house for a few minutes to hatch them!

Why is reality calculated based on time?

"…What does traveling have to do with hatching time? Yao, haven't you ever hatched eggs before?"

This time it was Xiaogang's turn to be curious about Wang Yao's thoughts.

Although it takes a little longer, it is a fossil Pokémon after all. Even for Geodude, the average hatching time is about fifteen weeks.

"But if there is an incubator... or a Pokémon that is good at hatching eggs to take care of them, the hatching period can be shortened to half of the original time."

"——that means it only takes twenty weeks!"

Xiaogang gave Wang Yao some knowledge about hatching eggs.

"Well... I was thinking about starting to breed fossil pterosaur babies right away."

Wang Yao calculated the time. There are still four months until the Quartz Conference. If there is no way to speed up the hatching, and he just waits for the fossil pterosaur to hatch... the New Year will be over!

And now it seems that he has to capture another Pokémon that can carry people and fly.

By the way, he had captured Zubat in the wilderness before...but Zubat needs to evolve into X-bat before it can carry people flying, which is also a long way off.

But something far off is better than nothing at all, so Wang Yao plans to go to Zhenxin Town after the opening ceremony.

"Hey...Xiaogang, is there hot water in your bathroom? I want to take a bath."

Wang Yao randomly picked an egg with a pattern that he liked and planned to give it a bath at Xiaogang's house first.

He had been traveling by car for two consecutive days... and had rushed to Deep Gray City without stopping. Now a hot bath was the most relaxing activity he wanted.

"Well... taking a shower is no problem, but the vacant room in my house is already occupied..."

"Even the Deep Gray Gym has been temporarily borrowed by Miss Junsha to accommodate the excessive number of tourists..."

Xiaogang scratched his head in embarrassment.

He had originally planned to reserve a room for Wang Yao... but an unexpected guest arrived.

Now, not to mention the empty house, even he can only sleep on the floor in the same room with his younger brothers and sisters.

"…It's okay, I'll just take a shower."

Wang Yao is used to camping...Except for the inconvenience of taking a shower, he actually prefers staying in the wild.

Of course...if you are very tired, it is more convenient to eat at the Pokémon Center.

"You will never guess who the guest staying at my house is, A Yao... I will introduce him to you at dinner later..."

Xiaogang introduced him to Wang Yao mysteriously.

"——Uncle! Why are you here?"

As he was speaking, a carefree voice came from the stairs on the second floor.

"Xiaozhi? You are here... Then Xiaogang, your guest is..."

Wang Yao looked at Xiaozhi... and then at Xiaogang.

I already have the answer in my heart.

"I was thinking of giving you a surprise, Yao... You didn't expect it, but Professor Oak stayed at my house!"

Xiaogang and Wang Yao had previously run into Xiaozhi and visited Professor Oak at the same time.

"Xiaozhi, since you're here, your mother and Xiaomao should be here too, right?"

Wang Yao asked.

"Yeah... Mom went out to buy groceries, and Professor Oak also visited the PiPi Cultural Center in advance."

Xiaozhi was very happy to see Uncle Ayao again and he talked nonstop.

"And Xiao Mao..."

"Xiaozhi! You're still that irritable... You haven't grown at all~"

A familiar voice came from the stairs on the second floor again.

The next person to come downstairs was Xiao Mao, who heard the conversation downstairs.

"Hi! Uncle!"

Xiao Mao flicked his bangs with two fingers and greeted Wang Yao in the same way, but he seemed much more aloof.

"That's it—dinner tonight is going to be a lively one!"

Xiaogang is ready to show off his skills before dinner!

……

After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Yao also took the time to take a hot bath.

Although dinner was still some time away, Wang Yao had no plans to wander around anywhere else.

"You two, come out too!"

Wang Yao threw out two Poké Balls.

Because the stingray and octopus barrel that were exchanged for Steelix and Arbok from the ranch were given to Misty to take care of, and Kentaro and Charmander were still recuperating in the Pokémon Center, Wang Yao actually only had three Pokémon on him.

That is, the two brothers, the giant crab and the cowardly bug... plus a sharp-toothed fish that has no pond and is inconvenient to release.

Oh…and a fossilized pterosaur egg.

However, Pokémon eggs cannot be put into Poké Balls.

[In the game, eggs can be saved on the computer, but in the animation, I have not seen anyone use Poké Balls to capture Pokémon eggs, so according to this setting, Pokémon eggs cannot be captured. ]

Therefore, there is no limit on the number of items you can carry.

Even though only two Pokémon were released, newly evolved Armored Warriors are very rare in Guandu.

Especially its majestic shape resembling that of an armored warrior makes it particularly eye-catching, which naturally attracts the attention of the two little brats from Pallet Town and a group of little brats from Xiaogang's family.

"What... is this a coward?"

“It’s so cool that it can evolve into this!”

Especially Xiaozhi and Xiaomao, they both had a brief experience of commanding Qiqi to fight against Magikarp.

Therefore, we are shocked by this completely different way of evolution.

Chapter 137 Everyone reunites! A lively dinner party!

"Isn't this also the case with Magikarp's evolution?"

"…Speaking of which, how is your Magikarp breeding ground going?"

After taking a shower, Wang Yaogang lazily lay on the sofa in Xiaogang's house, watching the giant crab and the cowardly bug playing horse riding games with Xiaogang's children outside the house.

"That would be great, of course!"

Xiaozhi raised his head and boasted.

"How dare you say that... My Magikarp is obviously superior in terms of both speed and strength!"

Xiao Mao bluntly exposed Xiaozhi's big talk.

"That's only temporary! In terms of fighting spirit, my Magikarp can definitely beat you!"

Xiaozhi clenched his fist and said in a firm tone.

"It's also very difficult to evolve Magikarp, but once it evolves into Gyarados it will become super powerful."

Wang Yao stood up and took out a bottle of juice soda from Xiaogang's refrigerator.

Crack!

Pull the ring open and take a sip.

"Ha~"

It feels great to have an ice cold drink after a shower!

This is the life of modern people!

Wang Yao lay back on the sofa in a happy mood.

"Although daily training is necessary, don't forget to cultivate feelings... When Magikarp turns into Gyarados, his personality will also become more violent."

"If the usual affection is not enough, it may attack the trainer!"

After taking another sip of the juice soda, Wang Yao reminded the two.

After all, Xiaozhi couldn't even tame Charizard in the early days. Of course, this is also quite strange...

Wasn't he very cute when he was a Charmander? Why did he become rebellious after evolving?

"That's possible... But I took good care of Magikarp, so it shouldn't happen, right?"

Xiaozhi scratched his cheek somewhat unconfidently.

"Xiaozhi, you don't think that feeding rice balls every day is taking good care of Magikarp, right?"

Xiao Mao said to Xiaozhi with a disdainful tone.

"I fly in the finest food from Golden City once a week to feed Magikarp!"

"I also massage the tail muscles and scrub the scales—I do everything myself!"

Xiao Mao put his hands on his hips, leaned back tactically, and looked quite confident.

"Ah... Xiao Mao, you actually did so much behind my back?"

Xiaozhi had no idea that his rival was secretly so ambitious!
