Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

If you attack it, you're afraid of being killed by its reflected attack; if you try to run away, you can't. If you force your way to kill it, at least it will take you down with it.

How should I put it? It was absolutely disgusting.

Of course, this is from the perspective of the opponent.

For Nanfeng, what meat shield could be better than this?

Wait, I'll use the Mystery Fruit to train you, and I'll also give you a leftover food item.

May the glory of the God of Fruit be restored in this world!

It is our duty!

It's worth noting that Team Rocket's Wobbuffet has a history of deflecting Giratina's Shadow Ball!

87. Returning Home Hunting: Shiny Onix

"You two, keep your voices down, don't disturb others!" Nanfeng reminded Togepi and Wobbuffet.

"Chajidu咿(￣^￣)ゞ"

"so~that~no! (￣^￣)ゞ"

The two little elves immediately lowered their voices and whispered quietly, no longer as noisy as before.

Nanfeng was very curious. Although the languages ​​of the elves were completely different, why could they communicate so smoothly?

However, the sounds of Togepi and Wobbuffet were no longer heard. People around were casting "friendly" glances at Nanfeng. They didn't think the two little guys were making noise at all; instead, they thought Nanfeng, the trainer, was being unfair.

Such an adorable elf deserves everyone's love and admiration.

Nanfeng silently wiped away her sweat. Is this what they mean by "cuteness equals justice"?

Across from Nanfeng sat a Delibird, which was curiously looking around with a look of novelty on its face. Since it couldn't be put into a Poké Ball and was too big to be captured by a child's ticket, Nanfeng bought a ticket for it as well.

More than an hour later, they got off at Ancheng Railway Station, and Messenger Bird took Togepi to catch up with the owner of the Potato and Beef Restaurant.

Nanfeng was originally going to take it there, since it was on the way and he happened to be there by taxi.

But the messenger bird refused and resolutely took Poppy away.

“Chichiduyi~~~”

"So~ no!" The two friends said their reluctant goodbye.

On Nanfeng's side, only those two are elves of the same age. No, there's also a Smeargle, but all that Smeargle does is draw, and it can't play with Togepi or Wobbuffet at all.

So even though they hadn't known each other for long, the two little guys had already developed a deep fighting friendship.

Battles in games count as battles too!

Watching the messenger birds fly away.

It's quite a distance from the train station to the potato and beef brisket rice shop, and Nanfeng was really worried that the two of them would get lost, after all, there was a previous case of them getting lost in Ancheng and ending up at Qiantang University.

However, Nanfeng bought Pokerby a "Little Genius" smartwatch with GPS tracking in advance, so they wouldn't be afraid of getting lost. Nanfeng could find them anytime through the "adult mode" on his phone!

"Let's go home," Nanfeng said, bending down to hug Little Guoguoweng.

This guy must have spent too much time with Togepi, and he's in that playful toddler stage, so he doesn't like going into Poké Balls.

Nanfeng can only hug it now; once it evolves into Wobbuffet, it will be too heavy to hug.

After leaving the station, Nanfeng took a taxi to the city gate of Ancheng, whereupon he released the little fire horse and rode it home!

Elves are not allowed to ride within the city.

As for horseback riding, Nanfeng had learned it for a while in his previous life at the invitation of a client with whom he had a good relationship. Before returning home, Nanfeng joined a club called "Equestrian Club" at Qiantang University.

This is a club made up of students who love Pokémon racing. Their daily activity is to hold Pokémon racing competitions in a designated area, where each trainer rides their own Pokémon and races around the track.

One of the senior students' spirits happened to be a Ponyta, so Nanfeng asked him for some horsemanship tips. After practicing for a few days and with a saddle, he can now move steadily.

Sparks flew and lightning flashed all the way as the south wind swept wildly across the muddy road outside the city.

However, this was just Nanfeng's perception of reckless driving; in reality, his speed hadn't even exceeded 60 yards.

But... the joy of riding an elf on the road is incomparable to driving a car.

After running and stopping frequently, Nanfeng returned to his hometown, Yangping Village, more than two hours later.

As we passed the small river at the village entrance, three silly-looking Psyducks lined up, quacking and swaying as they walked along the river.

South Wind saw Psyduck, and the Psyducks saw South Wind too.

"Little Ponyta, Quick Attack!"

The little horse's speed suddenly surged upwards!

Nanfeng rode Ponyta straight towards Psyduck.

The three Psyducks' eyes widened in surprise, and they jumped into the river to avoid Ponyta's lightning bolt.

"Quack quack quack!!!" The three Psyducks condemned Southwind's inappropriate behavior.

The only response they received was Nanfeng's hearty laughter; he had wanted to do that for a long time.

After arriving home and saying goodbye to his parents, Nanfeng put his bag inside and went straight to the abandoned mine halfway up Xiaoluoshan Mountain.

The place remains as deserted as ever, with no signs of anyone ever having been there.

Enter the mine.

"Flash!" Nanfeng snapped his fingers, and Gardevoir obligingly sent out a ball of light, instantly illuminating the dim mine tunnel.

Continue walking until you reach the place where Nanfeng last encountered the shimmering Onix.

Using the old method, Nanfeng opened the handheld console, grabbed two large Onix, and released them to check if the target was still there.

More than ten minutes later.

Your Onix has been defeated by Onix.

Your Onix has been defeated by Onix.

"It's still there!" Nanfeng felt a little relieved and took out a Poké Ball. "Please, Garchomp!"

"Roar!" Garchomp roared energetically as it appeared. With a quick movement, it disappeared from Nanfeng's sight as easily as if it had entered the water.

For Garchomp, which is known as the "earth dragon," going underground is like a fish in water, isn't it?

Nanfeng's gaze was fixed on Garchomp's control panel, which also displayed Garchomp's location on a tablet.

It is exploring diagonally forward.

Seven minutes later, Garchomp sank more than 500 meters underground, and its HP suddenly decreased, but only slightly, with little impact.

In terms of positioning, Garchomp no longer descends at a constant speed, but moves laterally at a very high speed.

The battle has likely begun!

Nanfeng was quite confident in Garchomp, as it had been the lead Pokémon and had reached level 40. With the addition of Pokémon Cubes made from various berries, its combat strength should be fine as long as it didn't encounter an opponent of Garchomp's caliber.

The dot representing Garchomp's location moves frequently from left to right, indicating that the battle is very intense.

Three minutes later, Garchomp began to move diagonally upwards.

But... this direction is completely opposite to where the south wind is located.

If it has already defeated Shiny Onix, or is no match for Shiny Onix, then Garchomp should be fleeing towards me or reporting the news.

Therefore, the truth is that Garchomp defeated Shiny Onix, but not completely. Shiny Onix knew it was no match for Garchomp, so it began to flee, while Garchomp pursued it.

"Let's go, we'll give chase!"

88. Diamond Onix

Emerging from the mine, Nanfeng released the spare armored bird.

He flipped over and jumped onto the Skarmory's back. Since the Skarmory hadn't mastered the "Fly" skill yet and couldn't guarantee the trainer's safety, Nanfeng could only awkwardly carry it as it headed north. This is also why Nanfeng doesn't really like using Flying Pokémon these days.

While some Pokémon are instinctively using moves like flying, surfing, and diving, mastering Pokémon moves is actually a safeguard for trainers.

Pokémon with the Fly move can help their owners resist oncoming strong winds, preventing them from being sent flying backwards by a sudden acceleration.

The same principle applies to Pokémon that have the Surf move.

As for the diving move, once a Pokémon masters it, it can dive to deeper depths. During its descent, it can also create a bubble that automatically dissipates water flow and resists water pressure, and it can even supply oxygen to the trainer inside the bubble. A Pokémon with diving abilities can take a trainer, even without any equipment, to depths of thousands of meters.

"Slow down, go down," South Wind whispered to the armored bird.

Once it slowed down, Nanfeng slightly raised his body, took out his tablet to check, and saw that the Garuda was still moving diagonally upwards, having already left Little Snail Mountain. Further north was a small town called "Tangli".

923 South Wind calculated that the Garchomp would likely pass directly through the town's underground and enter the E-level danger zone, the Dongyang Mountains...

"Let's go, we'll wait at the Dongyang Mountains!" Nanfeng put away his tablet and patted the armored bird.

With a flap of its steel wings, the Skarmory sped through the sky, its massive body carrying the south wind. Although it was only level 20, as a Pokémon, carrying an adult weighing just over 130 pounds was a piece of cake.

In just over ten minutes, Nanfeng entered the Dongyang Mountains and began to lower his altitude. In the danger zone, the Pokémon all had their own territories, including some like Finch, which had a strong sense of territory and a volatile temperament. At this critical moment, Nanfeng did not want to waste time fighting them.

Having pinpointed Garchomp's landing spot in advance, Southwind and Skarmory landed in a small basin at the intersection of several mountain ranges in the East Sun Mountains.

There appears to be a bottomless cave on the side.

“This cave…” Nanfeng frowned, a guess forming in his mind: could this have been left behind by the Shiny Onix?

"Boom!" A huge rock suddenly flew out of the cave.

The next second, a crystalline head followed closely behind!

It was the Onix that pushed this huge rock out.

"Greninja, Water Shuriken!" Nanfeng immediately threw out a Poké Ball.

Greninja leaped into the air, grabbed with both hands, and condensed two Water Shuriken, which it then threw at Onix.

"Ding ding ding ding..."

A crisp collision sound immediately came from the shiny Onix, but it didn't seem to have any good effect.

On the contrary, the shockwave from Onix's massive and heavy body crashing to the ground sent Greninja flying.

"The Water Shuriken, which is four times weak to Water-type moves, did no damage?" Nanfeng raised an eyebrow. He was a little suspicious. He wondered if Shiny Onix would have the ability to ignore Water-type moves like the Crystal Onix in the anime.

However, the crystallization of the current Onix's shimmering light is not ordinary crystal, but more like diamond!

Logically speaking, Onix should have incredibly strong physical defenses.

Could it be that... Onix is ​​excellent in both physical and special defense?

That would be wonderful!

Garchomp arrived shortly after, leaping out of the cave and striking the Onix with two powerful claws, causing slight cracks to appear on its diamond-like body.

The Flash Onix was rendered unable to fight on the spot. Judging from its wounded body, it had already been badly beaten by Garchomp before it arrived here.

But... is that all the defensive power a diamond can offer? That's way too weak!

Nanfeng could hardly believe his eyes.

Nanfeng began to doubt whether the crystallized minerals of the giant rock snake were actually diamonds.

In this world, all spirits whose bodies are made of rock must have transformed their ordinary rocky bodies into another mineral.

If the body transforms into another type of mineral, it will inevitably possess the characteristics of that mineral.

The hardness of diamond needs no further explanation. But if this shimmering Onix doesn't have a diamond body, then what kind of mineral body could it be?

After making the decision, Nanfeng took some of its ore for testing.

Nanfeng threw out a specially prepared "heavy ball".

Without much struggle, Onix was captured, and its attributes were checked through the handheld console.

Onix (Rock, Ground) (Flash)
