Wang Yao's Pokémon Journey

"Oh...I see!" Wang Yao nodded.

The president of the Pokémon Club knew a gym leader from another place... This felt like a very normal thing, and Wang Yao didn't pay much attention to it.

"Okay! Mr. Xia Ka! I will go... but before that, I have to collect eight badges and complete the league competition in the Kanto region!" Wang Yao's recent schedule will not change much.

"Well... the Quartz Conference? I will watch it too, Ayao! Looking forward to your future performance!" Xia Ka usually doesn't pay much attention to competitions in other regions.

After all, apart from the King Challenge, most Pokémon battles were just childish games in his eyes...

But since he is a trainer that President Masuda values, he doesn't mind finding out what's so special about him in advance.

"Okay! Let's just leave it at that...it's time for me to go back to the club!" President Masuda interrupted.

"Well... I'm here too, and need to receive some visitors." Master Xia Ka also has things to do.

Wang Yao ended the video call and watched the screen of Master Xia Ka disappear, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"The basic operation method is like this. If you want to save a new contact, you can click here... and enter the other party's number!" President Masuda told Wang Yao how to use the instant messenger in detail.

"Oh... I see... So that's it..." Wang Yao looked like a bumpkin who had never been to the city.

He was quite handy with his cell phone in the past, but this wristwatch communicator, which looked like it only had a few buttons, had so many functions that Wang Yao found it very novel!

"In addition to other instant messenger holders, you can also contact the Pokémon Center directly, such as the Pokémon Center in Vermilion City. I have already saved it... It's here..."

"Ah, let me try!" Wang Yao opened the communication.

“Beep-beep!”

"Hello! This is the Vermilion City Pokémon Center. Excuse me - Um! A Yao? Why is it you?" Miss Joy answered the Pokémon Center's video call as a routine, but found that Wang Yao's face was displayed on the video screen.

"Hello, big sister!" Wang Yao waved in front of the camera.

"Beep!" The video footage was cut off instantly.

"Ayao!!!!" A voice full of suppressed anger suddenly came from behind Wang Yao.

"What... why so fast - ah!" Wang Yao didn't even have time to look back before he was punched by the furious Joey and hung on a tree branch in the backyard of the Pokémon Center!

There is a distance of fifty meters from the front desk to the backyard of the Pokémon Center, and there are two doors between them!

Wang Yao had already left himself time to escape!

Who knew Miss Joy from Vermilion Leaf City would show up!

No... maybe it's not Flash - it's the Anywhere Door she borrowed from Doraemon!

Who made her Joey Shizuka?

"I suddenly remembered that I forgot to close the window of the club... I'll leave first!"

As the saying goes, a man of insight becomes a wise man... President Masuda chose to escape immediately before Joey turned his target to him.

"Hmph..." Joey clapped his hands, ignored Wang Yao hanging on the tree, and turned back to the front desk.

"Lucky!" Jigglypuff arrived following Joey.

"Great - Chansey... help me get down!" Wang Yao was not injured because he had the physique of the native Pokémon humans, but his hands were stuck too tightly by the tree branches, making it impossible for him to reach the Poké Ball at his waist, so he had to ask for help.

Jigglypuff waved its short little hands towards Wang Yao - it showed respect for the warrior.

"lucky~"

But it could do nothing to help Wang Yao who was on the tree.

So, after the memorial service, Chansey chose to leave and help Joey prepare the ingredients for lunch at the Pokémon Center's restaurant.

"Hey...Jelly Egg! Don't go! Jilly Egg!" Wang Yao frantically struggled on the tree branch...trying to break free.

Chapter 26: Fierce Battle! Coward vs. Metapod!

At 12:30 noon, Wang Yao showed up at the restaurant on time.

"You thought of using the friction with the branches to release the giant crab in the Poké Ball at your waist to save me... I'm so smart!"

Wang Yao put a big spoonful of curry chicken rice into his mouth and began to gobble it up madly.

"If this is considered smart... I suggest some people think about why they are stuck in the tree first."

Miss Joy, who was clearing the plates, "accidentally" passed by Wang Yao's table and spoke in a lukewarm tone.

"Ugh—cough cough!" Wang Yao, who was inhaling violently, almost choked.

I quickly drank some tree juice to moisten my throat.

"Hu——!" Wang Yao patted his chest and let out a long breath.

"Ms. Shizuka, I don't know what you are talking about... Professor Oak, a famous Pokémon scholar, once said that tree climbing is a good sport for both body and mind!"

Wang Yao said nonsense with a serious expression.

"…I'm just exercising according to what Professor Oak recommended!"

"Dr. Oak never said such a thing!!" Joey was a little helpless about Wang Yao's shamelessness.

"Lucky!" A round Jigglypuff egg squeezed in between the two of them and took away the drink cup that Wang Yao had just finished drinking.

"Hmph... You'd better not get caught by me again..." Joey said this harshly and then pushed the food tray recycling cart away.

"Lucky~" Wang Yao imitated Jigglypuff's tone and secretly made a "yeah" gesture behind Joey!

……

After lunch break, Wang Yao came to a clearing in the forest outside of Kuye City.

The invitation ticket was good for a full three days of stay. Wang Yao certainly wouldn't waste three days at the Pokémon Center, which was a free place with great food, lodging, and treatment facilities.

Because they will not officially set off for the Gopher Forest until tomorrow, Wang Yao will lead the team in special training today! And the intensity will be super doubled... to completely drain the giant crabs!

Anyway, I have Miss Joy and Jigglypuff's recovery treatment to back me up. After a night's rest, I'll be in full shape again tomorrow!

So Wang Yao plans to start actual combat training this time! Let his Pokémon fight against wild Pokémon one-on-one!

Yes! You heard it right! This time Wang Yao will not engage in a righteous beating!

It's a one-on-one match! A real manly match!

Under high-altitude detection by large-billed gulls.

Wang Yao found a small forest where many wild Pokémon gathered, and released all the Pokémon except Zapdos at once!

"The first battle of the day! Let the giant crab set an example for everyone!" Wang Yao stood behind the giant crab with his hands on his hips, looking towards the direction of the woods with high spirits.

First of all! He needs to find a strong opponent!

At this moment, a ferocious figure entered Wang Yao's sight!

This monster is brutally destroying large tracts of green vegetation in the forest!

The monster's head had a blood-red forked horn! Its green back was covered with evil circular markings! Its yellow ventral legs looked ferocious!

Through the cover of the woods, one could vaguely see the other person's pair of huge, dark and deep pupils, which revealed a frightening and murderous aura!

“That’s it—!”

"...Giant Crab! Go and knock down that Caterpillar!" Wang Yao commanded the brave and upright Giant Crab to try to challenge the evil and powerful forest overlord Caterpillar!

"Guji!" As a veteran righteous fighter among trainers, the Crawler will never ask why when Wang Yao asks it to do something!

He stepped forward, raised his giant pincers high, and aimed at a green caterpillar that was facing away from him and was happily chewing leaves! He suddenly punched it!

Bang!

After a muffled sound!

The green caterpillar lay peacefully in the deep pit that was smashed into the ground. A big bump appeared on the unconscious green caterpillar's head, and mosquito coil patterns appeared in its eye sockets!

Even against such a powerful opponent, Admiral Crab was still able to win the game perfectly!

"Well done! Giant Crab!" Wang Yao was very satisfied with the performance of the Giant Crab.

"Guji!" Admiral Giant Crab returned to the team, full of glory of victory.

"Okay! Next it's the turn of..." Wang Yao's eyes wandered over all the Pokémon.

"Go - coward! Go and kill that Metapod!" Finally, Wang Yao's eyes fell on the coward with a promising future.

"Guji!?" The cowardly bug shuddered, looked at Wang Yao in shock and confusion, and then looked at the Metapod not far away.

"Guji..." The cowardly bug seemed to have something to say.

"What are you afraid of? We have so many of you backing you up! Now is the time for you to show your prowess!" Wang Yao encouraged.

"Guji." The cowardly bug looked weak, pitiful and helpless. He hid behind the giant crab, half of his body exposed, and looked at Wang Yao eagerly.

"You better show some self-esteem!" Wang Yao shouted at the coward.

"Look, the opponent doesn't even have any hands or feet! It's just a big sandbag used for leveling! Go quickly - beat it up for me!" Wang Yao pointed out the enemy's weaknesses and let the cowardly bug play freely.

"Guji?" The cowardly bug looked at the metapod carefully.

It seemed as if it really had no hands or feet, its entire body was covered with a green shell, and it stood there like a wooden stake.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug seemed to feel that he was okay again!

"That's it - use your strongest trick! Give it a few slaps in the face!" Wang Yao's tone was like Li Yunlong whose warehouse was robbed.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug plucked up his courage and took a few steps forward.

Just like when fighting the wooden stake on Nori Island, the cowardly bug circled around the Metapod twice out of habit.

Metapod was still sleeping with its eyes closed, unaware of the danger.

The life of a caterpillar is very short. The period of being a pupa is only about half a month. During this period, it needs to consume the energy accumulated during the caterpillar period and get enough sleep to break through the shackles of evolution! Break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly!

Therefore, the Metapod only relies on the protection of the pupa shell to improve its defense, and its other senses are not sharp.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug already knew the enemy's combat strength.

It's full of flaws! It's vulnerable! We must win this battle! I'm invincible!

"Good! Very impressive!" Wang Yao saw that the coward was ready to attack!

"Take advantage of now! Use the metal claws first!" Wang Yao asked the coward to take the initiative.

Now that he had the Pokedex, he had already scanned the lists of skills that several of his Pokémon had.

At this moment, A Yao is no longer the illiterate trainer who couldn't even name the skills!

The level of the cowardly bug is not high, and it currently has only five skills, namely [Metal Claws], [Screeching Sound], [Becoming Round], [Sand Shifting], and [Insect Resistance].

Except for the metal claws which should be inherited from his father, all other skills are acquired naturally by Coward in the wild.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug quickly jumped in front of the Metapod, and the sharp claws under its back shell flashed with a metallic luster!

"Swish!" The sharp metal claws instantly caused a tiny damage to the shell of the Metapod!

Metapod's body shook, but it didn't wake up yet.

"Keep going! Use the metal claws continuously!" Wang Yao commanded the cowardly bug to start a quick attack!

Swish! Swish!

The cowardly bugs circled around the Metapod, and the attacking light of the metal claws came from all directions! Covering the entire body of the Metapod!

"Pupa..." The Metapod, awakened from its deep sleep, opened its eyes with some confusion.

It felt a little itchy just now.

"The other side is defenseless! Go ahead! Use the sand-moving technique!" Wang Yao used tactics wisely and never just attacked with force!

"Guji!" The cowardly bug followed Wang Yao's instructions and decided to pursue the victory.

As it turned around, several small insect legs swept the ground quickly, raising a cloud of dust in the direction of the Metapod!

"It's now!"

Wang Yao waved his hand and ordered, "Charge forward and use the metal claws!"

"Pupa?" The Metapod was wondering where the sand and dust came from.

But he saw a small insect he had never seen before running towards him.

The timid bug showed its claws, and with the help of the metal claw skill, the claw tips looked particularly sharp!

Another series of quick attacks of "Swish! Swish! Swish!"!
