Wang Yao's Pokémon Journey

According to the information he had learned, even the Steelix, which had evolved through scientific means, liked to live deep underground and dig for ore for food.

If it is a wild steel snake, it is probably even rarer to appear near the surface.

"What's the big deal? Just ask the locals for directions!"

Originally, Wang Yao just wanted to give it a try. If he didn't gain anything, it wouldn't be too late to come back and tame a giant rock snake.

Taking out the illustrated guide, Wang Yao searched for information about Steelix.

"Tsk! Steelix! An iron snake Pokémon that evolved with the help of a strange gadget. Its body is covered with steel particles, making it so hard that even diamonds can't hurt it. It can use its strong jaws to crush rocks underground, and has eyes that can see clearly even in the pitch-black underground."

Because the item evolution method was only discovered recently, the small screen of the illustrated guide also thoughtfully provided a picture for Steelix.

Just like that, under the curious gazes of the giant Onixes, Wang Yao walked up to the super giant Onix with the illustrated book.

"Hello! Boss Snake!"

Although he didn't know the mother-child relationship between these giant rock snakes, Wang Yao still greeted them without any awkwardness.

"I want to ask, this Pokémon in the picture - where can I find it?!"

Clicking on the preview image of Steelix, Wang Yao held up the illustrated book in his hand and showed it to the other party.

"Woo-hoo?"

He is not here to capture himself and his children, but to look for Pokémon?

The enthusiastic mother snake lowered her head, staring with a pair of eyes that were bigger than Wang Yao's body, and tried hard to identify the Pokémon images displayed on the mini screen that was less than 4 inches.

Hmm - a gray metal-like body shell, a long chain-shaped mineral body similar to mine, and a pair of stick-like protrusions on the body knot... This is not...

"Woo-hoo?"

The mother snake let out a cry that was confused, angry and tangled.

What bothered it was that a fellow similar to the gray Pokémon in the picture had come out of the ground and met it by chance more than a decade ago...

And the other party claimed to be the "Mountain God" of Mount Miacha.

Having never seen Steelix before, the mother snake, who was still a young and beautiful snake at the time, was attracted by the other's powerful strength and noble status as a mountain god, and lived with him lovingly for a while.

But just after the honeymoon period ended and she gave birth to more than a dozen Pokémon eggs.

The mountain god dived deep underground alone, abandoning the mother and child!

The angry and sad mother snake first hatched the big rock snake alone...

In the days that followed, she once went deep underground to look for each other without telling the children.

However, Steelix's digging ability is much stronger than that of Onix, and its sturdy body can easily withstand the huge pressure deep underground...

Although the snake mother has been able to feel the breath of the scumbag mountain god under the mountain over the years, she has never been able to find him.

In addition, the other party was the mountain god of Miacha Mountain, and the mother snake did not dare to destroy the mountain and pull the other party out...

When the newly born Onix ask "Where is my father?", the mother snake always uses the excuse that you are the children given to me by the mountain god, so you don't have a father... to fool them.

So...the matter of finding a father for the children has been delayed until now.

As her children grew up, the mother snake had already forgotten about this scumbag mountain god.

But now, the long-forgotten memories were suddenly activated by the pictures in Wang Yao's illustrations!

"Well! Do you know it?"

"This is Steelix! It's the evolved form of Onix!"

Wang Yao introduced it to him considerately.

"That's right - just follow the human trainer on your journey! It will be easy for you to evolve into Steelix!"

Wang Yao also mentioned the other party's evolution, hoping to improve his favorability.

After all, Wang Yao had originally gone looking for Steelix just to give it a try. If he didn't get anything, it wouldn't be too late to capture another Onix.

“Wuuuu!?”

Mother Snake listened to Wang Yao's introduction in shock - the other party was not a mountain god? It was her own evolved form?!

It's easy to evolve after traveling with humans...

In other words - it was deceived by the scum snake!

"Woooooo! Woooo!"

The angry mother snake roared immediately!

【Children! Follow me! 】

As the huge rock head instantly drilled into the ground, accompanied by a loud rumbling sound and vibration, a huge, sloping tunnel leading to the underground core of the mountain appeared in its place.

"Woo-hoo?"

The giant rock snakes didn't know what was going on, but as obedient baby snakes who listened to their mother, they decided to follow their mother's footsteps closely!

Rumble!

Rumble!

……

These big rock snakes drilled into the ground along the cave dug by the mother snake. The size of the cave, which was already very wide, was expanded again and became large enough to fit a small house!

"Hey... why did you run away?!"

Wang Yao took a few steps back, stood on the edge of the pit, and curiously looked diagonally downward.

"My giant rock snake also reacted!"

The Poké Ball in Xiaogang's hand, which had not yet warmed up, began to shake.

"Come out! Giant Rock Snake!"

Since they have been tamed, Xiaogang will release them to see what these giant onixes want to do.

"Woooooooooo!"

After the giant Onix came out and looked at Xiaogang, it went straight into the pit and joined the team of its brothers and sisters!

"what!?"

No...what do you mean by just looking at me and leaving?

Just ran away? !

The giant Onix I just captured!!

Xiaogang stood there looking pale, with an indescribable sadness in his heart.

"Don't be in a daze! Hurry up and chase them! It must be these kind fellow villagers who are helping me lead the way!"

Wang Yao tried to wake up the pale Xiaogang.

"Oh... OK! Okay!"

Xiaogang's mind was almost thrown away by Wang Yao, and he finally came back to his senses staggeringly.

"Come out! Big Rock Snake!"

A snake's true feelings are revealed when it is needed.

Looking at the old model Onix in front of him that he could use as easily as his own arm.

Xiaogang sighed in his heart - the domesticated Onix is ​​still the most reliable!

"Come back! Giant crab! Big-billed gull!"

"Onix! Take us to catch up!"

Before Xiaogang could say anything, Wang Yao, who had taken back the Pokémon, jumped up and rode directly on Onix's stone body.

"Come on! Xiaogang-Onix, let's go!"

Wang Yao stretched out a hand to pull up Xiaogang who was in a daze again, and shouted hurriedly.

"Woooooooooo!"

Following Wang Yao's order, Onix carried the two men quickly underground along the hole dug by the huge Onix.

Chapter 54: Underground Space! Steelix's Happy Life!

The rumbling sound continued to echo in the tunnel.

The speed at which the giant rock snakes burrowed into the ground was no slower than their speed on the ground.

I walked underground for several minutes, but the rumbling sound in my ears still did not stop.

"Ayao...how do I feel..."

Xiaogang was sweating profusely and he struggled to open his collar and fan himself.

"…Underground…it's getting hotter and hotter!"

"Ayao...Ayao?"

Xiaogang called out several times but got no response from Wang Yao.

When he turned around, he found that Wang Yao's eyes were rolling in circles and his unconscious body was swinging on the giant rock snake like a piece of seaweed.

He didn't know when he fainted from the heat!

If his legs hadn't been stuck in the cracks of Onix's body, he would have been thrown into the tunnel long ago.

"Onix—Stop!"

Xiaogang hurriedly stopped Onix and dragged Wang Yao down.

"Wake up! Ayao! Wake up! Oh no...that's right!"

Xiaogang suddenly had an idea and took the Poké Ball of the giant crab from Wang Yao.

"Giant Crab! Use the water gun! Cool everyone down!"

Xiaogang doesn't have any water-type Pokémon, but Wang Yao has plenty.

"Guji~"

The giant crab sprayed water all over the sky, and the water was dispersed into large amounts of fine mist by the hot air underground, which poured down on the two of them.

Even Xiaogang's Onix was bathed in the mist, but the mist did not cause any harm. Instead, it made it feel much refreshed.

"Forehead……"

Wang Yao woke up when Xiaogang called him.

"Ayao... the temperature underground is too high, maybe we should go back!"

Xiao Gang persuaded.

Wang Yao wiped the mist off his face, shook his head and pulled himself together again.

"If I'm not mistaken... there should be an active magma layer under Mount Miacha."

"Only with such crustal movement can rare minerals be brought to the surface and cause the giant rock snake here to grow in size."

Xiao Gang deduced, narrowing his eyes.

"I'm fine... Let the giant crabs help us cool down. Let's explore a little further down. I think we're almost there..."

Wang Yao took out the Poké Ball of Otter and let the two Pokémon spray water mist together.

"Listen... the Onix seem to have stopped moving forward!"

While the two were talking, the rumbling sound in their ears stopped, indicating that the giant rock snakes had arrived at their destination.

"This……"

Xiaogang was also a little hesitant.

After all, the target is such a rare wild giant steel snake...

Thinking that Onix is ​​his trump card and will continue to evolve in the future, Xiaogang thought it would be good to see it in advance.

"……Oh well!"

The two of them rode on Onix again, but this time, there were two more people, a crab and a seagull, who sprayed water around them to cool them down.
