I run an orphanage in the Pokémon world.

The story of the transformation isn't very complicated. It's about a country girl named Yoshida Saki who, after entering higher education, looks at herself in the mirror and feels that she needs to change her image. So, Yoshida Saki bravely tries to change. At first, the change is good and the effect is great; she becomes very cute and innocent. But later, she meets a scumbag.

This scumbag deceived Yoshida Saki, and then (the following content cannot be described), Yoshida Saki then experienced what can be described as the most painful period of her life. Her father and classmates could not understand her, and even the details of Yoshida Saki could not be described. Yoshida Saki became more and more desperate, and later she even became addicted to drugs.

She later died in a bathroom, and as she died, she recalled her past and fantasized that she had really changed her current situation. At that time, Yoshida Saki was pregnant.

The story isn't very long, and the illustrations in the book are just okay. But the fact that Yoshida Saki, a girl who wanted to change and made attempts, was dragged into hell after her transformation, along with the author's description of Yoshida Saki's inner thoughts, makes you think about these things.

The transformation also spawned some memes, because the ending was so infuriating that the original author was forced to reveal that it was actually an anti-drug propaganda film, and Yoshida Saki was just an actress in it, who received her salary and lived a happy life.

Of course, there are also fan creations. At the moment when Yoshida Saki was about to die in the toilet, she encountered the cow dung head from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and a Crazy Diamond shot changed Yoshida Saki's life.

This is a level of treatment that other doujinshi don't receive, which shows the status of this work in the doujinshi world. But that makes sense, while others are thinking about how to make readers feel happy, this guy is thinking about exploring the harm of drugs to humans and has also depicted the character Yoshida Saki in such detail.

Tengshu had seen it before. Under the influence of Dialga's gem, Tengshu, with the intention of paying homage to the classic form, drew this book called "Transformation" in one night. In the meantime, he also went outside to check and make sure that no Pokémon had been abandoned before he felt a little relieved.

The next morning, as Teng Shu stepped out of the orphanage to do his rounds, he ran into the rather defiant Zoroark. Teng Shu's lips twitched; Zoroark had really arrived early.

"Quick, let me see your masterpiece!" Zoroark was very unconvinced. Although she knew that Teng Shu was also a manga artist and that his Journey to the West was very famous, Zoroark just wouldn't accept it. Zoroark felt that she was the undisputed master in the world of doujinshi, and that's what her fans said too.

"I don't really care, but I haven't taken it yet. How about later?" Teng Shu yawned. Although he had Dialga's gem, he still stayed up all night to finish the painting as soon as possible. However, he didn't stay up for too long. Even so, Teng Shu felt very sleepy. He had a feeling of wanting to transcend, which was very hard to describe.

“Okay, but to be fair, I’ve invited some people to the group. I’ll post my work and yours together and see what the audience thinks.” Zoroark said confidently, and Teng Shu’s lips twitched.

Not buddy!

Are we doujinshi artists or some weird profession? Huh? Why are there comments and such? This really caught Teng Shu off guard. However, looking at the confident Zoroark in front of him, Teng Shu didn't object. If someone else intervened, Zoroark wouldn't be able to cheat if he lost, right?

Although he felt a little conflicted, after finishing the morning's inspection, Teng Shu and Zoroark posted their work in the group chat, which even included rating software and a voting system.

“Ratings allow everyone to decide how they evaluate our work, while voting is about choosing the work they think is better.” Zoroark crossed his arms, looking very proud, while Teng Shu was also a little curious. This guy Zoroark was actually quite formal.

He's definitely the type who's bored out of his mind.

After the work was released, the group was quiet for a while. Teng Shu wasn't in a hurry. You have to read a comic page by page, right? Besides, some people might be doing handicrafts, so it would be about an hour before we could check the rating.

"Zoroark, speaking of which, what type of girl do you like?" Teng Shu asked Zoroark, and Zoroark, without hesitation, declared that she was a staunch supporter of pure love.

Teng Shu was somewhat surprised to hear this, but he didn't say anything. After all, although Zoroark's work was a bit strange, it didn't seem to be the type of minotaur.

“I’m also a pure love advocate.” Teng Shu smiled, and Zoroark seemed to find common ground upon hearing this. She looked at Teng Shu and passionately discussed the conflict between the pure love and minotaur stances with him.

“Actually, those minotaurs all overlooked one problem.” Teng Shu spoke eloquently, and Zoroark looked at him with some curiosity. So what was it that they overlooked? Zoroark was quite curious about this question.

Although she is a staunch advocate of pure love, she always finds it painful to debate with others and doesn't know how to convince them.

“Those who support the minotaurs just want to be Cao Cao… cough cough, minotaurs themselves, but if the minotaurs happen to these people, they won’t be happy.” Teng Shu shrugged, and Zoroark thought that this statement actually made a lot of sense.

Minotaur, minotaur, everyone thinks they are the one who bullies others, but they have no desire to become the victim in the process.

On the one hand, he wants to be a "yellow-haired" guy, and on the other hand, he demands that others have pure love for him. This is extremely absurd.

“Indeed, and besides, since they support the Tauren so much, they should be able to accept being killed by them, right? Hahahaha.” Zoroark laughed happily, and Teng Shu nodded as well. Today was another day of brutal killing for the Tauren.

Meanwhile, the voting and rating systems are also making moves.

Both Fujiki and Zoroark instinctively looked over. Although Fujiki was very knowledgeable about the Transformation series and had a lot of confidence in himself, he still felt a little nervous when the moment came.

[Transformation: 9.9/10]

Although the quality of this work is excellent, after reading it, I felt nothing but sadness; this is the harm caused by drugs. Therefore, I strongly support the Alliance's efforts to combat drugs!

Looking at this rating, Zoroark's lips twitched. What the hell? Is this still the world of doujinshi? Where did this come from?

The bittersweet love story between Charizard and Blastoise: 7/10

Well, how should I put it? Although the teacher's works are still as appealing as ever, the problem is, after watching the transformation, I felt a huge gap between the two. It's like the difference between a novice pianist and a piano master.

Zoroark was somewhat dazed, even doubting whether it had misread the image. However, the score for its work was significantly higher than that for Tengshu's work, a gap that was clearly visible to the naked eye. Zoroark knew that it had no chance and had lost completely.

However, Zoroark still clicked on Teng Shu's work with curiosity, wanting to see what kind of work it was.

After reading it, Zoroark fell silent.

Teng Shu's drawing skills are excellent, which brings this work to life. The depiction is also very delicate. There are even some small details that readers might not notice, but Teng Shu noticed them and quickly corrected them, which is quite outrageous.

"...It is indeed an excellent work...but are there that many drug addicts in the League?" Zoroark was a little puzzled. After all, she was just a Pokémon. Although she knew some things about human society, she didn't know too much.

Teng Shu's gaze darkened. He came from a country that had experienced suffering. Back then, his ancestors had their spines broken and became homeless because of drug use. They were even bullied at will, and too many horrific things happened. The blood and tears of those who suffered made Teng Shu very determined to fight drugs.

“There are some,” Teng Shu said with a sigh. Drug dealers these days are also keeping up with the times, with new methods in a new era. So, to avoid getting caught, you need to raise your awareness of protection. It’s best to be wary of drinks and food offered by others at parties. After all, one careless mistake can ruin your whole life.

"You won." Zoroark wanted to say something, but the image of Yoshida Saki's rigid gaze at the end of the manga kept flashing through his mind.

So Zoroark said nothing, but simply took out his bargaining chip, a strange little gadget.

Teng Shu took it. It was a statue-like thing that looked quite ordinary, but judging from Zoroark's pained expression, Teng Shu knew that it must be something valuable, otherwise Zoroark wouldn't have that look on his face.

Although Zoroark is a great actor and has no sense of honor, he can be quite reliable at times. For example, in this kind of situation, he's not the type to be a sore loser.

"What is this?" Teng Shu asked curiously. He couldn't tell what the statue was, but it looked very magical.

"This is... really, you're lucky. I don't know what this thing is, but if you wear it, all the bugs will stay away from you." Zoroark said with a reluctant expression, while Tengshu became somewhat interested upon hearing this.

If you were to ask Tengshu what the biggest problem was at the orphanage, the answer would be insects.

This doesn't refer to Bug-type Pokémon, but rather to ordinary insects; some Pokémon are insects.

The welfare home has excellent greenery, but the consequence of such excellent greenery is that there are an unusually large number of insects, even ridiculously large ones.

Chapter 583 The Froggy Frog and the Fire Fox

Although Tengshu thought it was absurd that insects could exist in the Pokémon world, he calmed down after thinking about it. After all, that's how the ecosystem is these days, and the number of Pokémon maintains a strange balance. But at the same time, the existence of insects can also help make the Pokémon ecosystem more stable.

Therefore, sometimes, Tengshu can also see some strange insects. He once saw an insect that looked like a bee dragging a dead little spider past him.

At that moment, Teng Shu felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were about to fly away.

Actually, Tengshu is quite afraid of insects that suddenly lunge at him. If they don't lunge at him, Tengshu feels fine; he can catch a pair of twin tails with his bare hands without any problem. But once they fly up, especially if they fly straight at him, Tengshu can't hold back.

"You always come up with some weird stuff." Teng Shu put the thing away with satisfaction. He used to dislike those little insects with protruding faces, but now he didn't have that worry anymore.

Zoroark, however, had some mixed feelings. Looking at the vine tree's work, he was thoughtful. Zoroark suddenly felt that his previous art was too one-sided. He should have considered more aspects. For example, the transformation of the vine tree was very classic and interesting. Zoroark felt that this was a new direction.

"Tengshu, how did you come up with these ideas?" Zoroark looked at Tengshu curiously. Tengshu just smiled when he heard this, but didn't say anything more. Sometimes, when you're being silly, suddenly becoming serious can have a magical contrast effect.

Someone once talked about advanced mathematics on Pixiv and it unexpectedly went viral. It just goes to show that people these days probably like contrasts.

Being serious in a risqué place—isn't that a kind of contrast?

Zoroark left with a sigh, and Tengshu didn't say much about it. He just yawned and went back to the orphanage. He originally planned to do something else, but now he felt it would be better to deal with the transformation manga first.

Otherwise, if someone saw it, Teng Shu felt that his reputation would be ruined.

However, when Tengshu returned to his office, he didn't see anything strange, which made him feel much more relaxed. He had been wondering if he would run into someone like Feng Wang reading his comics, but since they weren't there, it made him feel a bit more at ease. Otherwise, the company would have been doomed.

Upon arriving at the office, Teng Shu casually picked up his phone and glanced at the date. Today wasn't the day for a follow-up visit. Although Teng Shu didn't have a particularly clear pattern for his follow-up visits, he generally tried to wait until a month later to assess the relationship between the Pokémon and the trainer more quickly.

Just as Teng Shu was about to sit down and write a report to finish it as soon as possible, he found his phone ringing.

"Is it Officer J. S. again?" Looking at the message, Teng Shu felt a bit of a stomachache. Every time he saw Officer J. S., it meant he might have to get busy, which caught Teng Shu off guard. But there was nothing he could do about it.

After all, Tengshu himself is also a staff member of the Pokémon League, so sometimes he also needs to do his normal work and handle things here. Thinking about this, Tengshu picked up his phone and took a look.

Officer Jenny: We found two abandoned Pokémon during our patrol, we'll bring them to you later.

Looking at Jun Sha Guang's prompt, Teng Shu remained expressionless. He was already used to it. In any case, every time Jun Sha Guang contacted him, it was basically for official business. She had never contacted him for personal matters. And as the director of an orphanage, there wasn't much work he could do. So, over time, things have become what they are now.

【OK】

Teng Shu replied, then stood up and quickly walked to the entrance of the orphanage.

Upon seeing the vines there, Locke knew something was amiss, so he came over immediately.

"Your wife and daughter went back?" Teng Shu glanced at Locke, who nodded. They had indeed gone back. After all, Locke was at the orphanage for work, but his wife and daughter had their own things to do.

"My daughter is about to start elementary school, and my wife is taking her back home to get used to it beforehand. We also need to choose a school while we're at it." Locke said with a smile, looking like a happy, fulfilled person. Teng Shu's lips twitched; these people who are so fulfilled are truly enviable.

"So, is your daughter planning to choose the Trainer Specialty category, or the regular one?" Teng Shu asked, somewhat curious about this question.

From the moment he arrived here, Teng Shu knew that unless he could travel back in time, he would basically have to stay here for the rest of his life. It was for this reason that Teng Shu started to pay attention to things like schools.

The schools in the Pokémon world are different from those in the previous life. Everyone knows about the elementary schools in the previous life, but in the Pokémon world, because children can embark on their journey and become trainers at the age of ten, the elementary schools are quite special.

One option is to specialize in Pokémon, which means learning all the basic knowledge of becoming a trainer and then pursuing the path of a trainer. The other option is to completely give up the possibility of becoming a trainer, become an ordinary person, learn various kinds of knowledge, go through junior high school, high school, and university, and finally enter society.

These two directions are different, but at the same time, this difference also brings some other distinctions.

For example, in the first case, if you don't become a trainer, you'll need to study for a specific professional certificate if you want to work later. Otherwise, it will be difficult to find a job in the future, since there are too many trainers. Therefore, the re-employment options for retired trainers are basically overcrowded.

There are people everywhere.

The second type of job is easier, but it also means missing the most convenient path to becoming a trainer. Of course, you can become a trainer on your own later, but you will have to learn trainer knowledge on your own or pay for training. However, in general, more people choose the second path.

Unless you're the kind of person who's absolutely certain you can be a trainer and is extremely confident, most people will prioritize making a living when faced with this issue.

"I plan to let my daughter choose for herself. After all, she is very interested in these things, and if she wants to become a trainer in the future, my family can afford to support her." Locke was not worried about this issue at all. He earns a lot of money, but he doesn't use it much himself. It's a good choice to leave it for his children.

Seeing this, Teng Shu didn't say anything. After all, it was Locke's own business, and Teng Shu wasn't really suited to meddle. So Teng Shu didn't plan to do anything. He just chatted with Locke casually, and Locke would occasionally steer the conversation toward his daughter.

He talked about his daughter all the time, and Teng Shu gained a better understanding of her.

Locke's daughter is raised in a wealthy family, but Locke's wife is also very talented at taking care of their daughter. Teng Shu had seen her before, and Locke's daughter was indeed very good. Compared with other naughty children of the same age, she was simply a little angel.

Locke was just too talkative; he talked on and on about his daughter for a good ten minutes. When Officer Jenny arrived, Locke finally calmed down a bit, which left Teng Shu somewhat amused and exasperated.

“We found it near the train station this time. It was thrown into two boxes, but there were some food rations inside, and this was written on it.” Officer Jenny took out a cardboard sign. Teng Shu glanced at it and saw the words “Seeking a kind person to adopt it” written on it. Teng Shu raised an eyebrow when he saw this. People like this are really not that common.

After all, the most common abandoners that Tengshu had seen were those who simply threw away their Pokémon without keeping anything. He didn't expect this one to keep something.

"Has it been sent for a medical check-up?" Teng Shu asked casually, then glanced behind him and saw the information about the two Pokémon.

However, the moment he saw it, Teng Shu subconsciously rubbed his eyes, then looked again. He was sure he hadn't seen it wrong, but what was going on?

【Guagua Bubble Frog】

【water】

[Low spirits]

【Fire Fox】

【fire】

Everything is fine.

The information that came into view made Teng Shu feel a little dazed. He even doubted whether he had seen it wrong, but it seemed that he hadn't seen it wrong. On the contrary, it was indeed like this. However, this made Teng Shu even more confused.

Aren't these two Pokémon a little too healthy?

After all, most of the abandoned Pokémon had some kind of illness, but these two Pokémon were in very good health and their emotions were very stable. Only Froakie was a little listless, while Fennekin was in perfect condition. This seemed very outrageous, and it was the first time that Tengshu himself had seen such an outrageous label.

No, I've seen it once before.

“There’s no need. These two little guys are perfectly healthy.” Officer Jenny was unaware that Teng Shu already knew. She had only just brought the Froggy Frog and the Fire Fox over to show them to Teng Shu.

Teng Shu glanced at it; it looked perfectly normal, nothing wrong with it. Although it wasn't a Shiny Pokémon, it was still perfectly normal.

So, what is the reason for abandonment?

Teng Shu found it somewhat puzzling.

Although Froakie was the dominant starter Pokémon in the Kalos region during Generation VI due to Ash's Greninja, in reality, the three starter Pokémon are actually quite evenly matched. If we had to rank them, the Grass-type starter Pokémon would probably be at a disadvantage, since Grass-type Pokémon have generally been difficult to evaluate in several generations of games, perhaps because they offended the designers.

In reality, people have some degree of preference for physical appearance, so naturally, not many people like an unattractive grass plant.

However, seeing two starter Pokémon now, Fujiki still felt somewhat uneasy.

"Okay, I'll take them with me. But these two little guys should be easy to adopt if you're willing." Teng Shu smiled, but what he said made sense. These are Fiddlesticks and Froakie, and they don't have any diseases or psychological problems. Pokémon like these would probably be adopted within a week of being listed, maybe even sooner.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Tengshu." Officer Jenny nodded. Although she was also surprised, after all, Officer Jenny wasn't in charge of this kind of work, so Tengshu had to handle these two Pokémon.

Teng Shu didn't have any objections.

Although he knew the two guys were fine, Teng Shu still went through the medical pod as per procedure. Inside the medical pod, Pi Pi was still there, but Pi Pi looked much more energetic and would happily greet Teng Shu when he saw him. Pi Pi was currently watching anime.

What I'm looking at is still...

"When the cicadas cry?" Teng Shu's lips twitched when he saw the work above. No, is it really okay for a rascal like you to look at this?

Teng Shu himself was a little worried. After all, to be honest, this work would be quite mind-bending and give most people a headache. Just looking at it, Teng Shu felt as if someone was whispering in his ear, "Do you believe it?"

Once Pipi came out, Tengshu released the Frog and the Fire Fox. After Frog came out, it subconsciously glanced around and its mood instantly turned terrible. Tengshu couldn't help but sigh when it saw Frog like this.

Being abandoned is something most Pokémon can't accept.

Meanwhile, the fire fox calmly surveyed its surroundings, its gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny and boredom. Then, the fire fox yawned, its gaze falling on the vine tree, before bowing to it. The vine tree, seeing the fire fox's gesture, couldn't help but smile.
