Pokémon, but cultural invasion

On a sunny day, it can travel a long distance.

Mountains, hills, dead lakes, basins... cities dotted along the way, devoid of any living creatures.

It's as if it's the only thing left in the world.

Time began to accelerate again, with day and night alternating endlessly.

The broken parts were replaced one by one, and the materials came from those scrapped parts of the same kind.

WALL-E walked for a very long time, and stopped following the pre-set program and stopped cleaning up the trash.

It wasn't because the program malfunctioned, but because WALL-E gradually realized that it wasn't actually WALL-E.

...

"The virtual scene's runtime is about to expire."

"What do we do? The plot hasn't even started yet..."

A group of rigid metal heads are at a loss when they discover that WALL-E doesn't play by the rules.

"This experiment can be considered a failure."

Let's force the story back on track.

...

The earth rumbled as the massive, flame-spraying spaceship landed slowly.

The egg-dropped compartments from the spaceship opened.

A futuristic robot, completely different from the old wasteland robots, pure white, holy, and with a high-tech aesthetic, appeared before my eyes.

WALL-E, who should have been drawn to the dazzling other party, suddenly froze.

Upon seeing its kind, which is many times more beautiful and of far superior quality, its first reaction is not one of longing or admiration.

False memories are quietly severed from the consciousness that lies beneath the surface.

As the futuristic robot Eva slowly started up, WALL-E's telescope blinked; it finally remembered.

When Eva opened her eyes, she only saw WALL-E's departing figure. She was stunned; this was not what the program had programmed.

WALL-E... no, Porygon is running faster and faster.

It remembered everything; it was an experiment on itself, using WALL-E to awaken its emotions.

But it seems to have messed up, especially the most important part of the script—falling in love with Eva.

As it recalls that it is a multifaceted beast, more and more distant memories that it once thought it never cared about keep washing over its heart.

A rookie trainer who was smashing the slot machines at Yuhong Game City stumbled upon a Porygon, who had just escaped from the slot machine's port and was on the verge of death.

The boy was overjoyed.

Perhaps because he thought Porygon2 was one of the rewards from the arcade, the boy naturally assumed it was a Pokémon he had won.

He didn't know that Porygon was charged, and foolishly fed himself Pokémon food.

Following him, the Polygon began one battle after another, an endless series of battles, with more losses than victories.

Perhaps because he thought Polygon was mute, the boy would confide in it whenever he was frustrated or in a bad mood after a defeat.

"Polygon, I envy you."

"As a Pokémon, you only need to obey orders, but a trainer has to consider many things."

The boy was not very lucky; he encountered an unimaginably strong opponent in his first major competition.

However, he did not give up, so he traveled to different regions again.

Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh... and finally Unova. After failing again, I returned to Kanto to start playing the game again.

The tide has turned; Eevee, the team's former mainstay, has become a lazy bum, while Eevee has become the main force in game development.

Polygon really enjoyed the time he spent sitting in front of the computer with the boy, typing away.

With more and more memories and less and less loneliness, it is now very happy.

Perhaps it was time, and the world unfolding from the blue module collapsed.

In the data-saturated cyberspace, the multi-sided beast effortlessly returned to the computer port.

...

"The test is over?"

Quanshu stared at the stopped program, unsure of what was going on.

The next second, the Porygonian emerged from the screen and hovered in mid-air, motionless, its eyes still full of wisdom.

But Quanshu noticed that something seemed different about it, though he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

A report based on calm calculations was received.

"The test failed."

He patted the dazed Pompeii. "It's alright, take your time."

"Take your time."

Chapter 207 Purple Yu and Colorful Beans

"Attention passengers traveling to the Kanto region, this voyage is about to arrive in Konoha City. Please check your personal belongings before disembarking..."

"Passengers whose destination is Lilycove City in the Hoenn region, please do not disembark and wait patiently..."

The cruise ship's loudspeaker emitted a synthesized mechanical voice, and the cold touch of the deck railings and the salty sea breeze brought Zi Yu back to her senses.

Countless cargo ships are moored at the Dead Leaf Wharf, and the city stretches out along the bay in a magnificent, white hue.

The whistle blew long.

The sight startled a large flock of long-winged gulls that had been surrounding the pier and ferry bridge, which then flapped their wings and flew into the sky.

"Can you feel it? How are the long-winged gulls here different from those in the Unova region?"

Standing beside her was a tall woman with light brown hair.

“Professor Bai Leiya, the average size of the long-winged gulls near the dock seems to be larger than that in the Unova region.”

Ziyu frowned, her thick eyebrows furrowed. Compared to the United States, the Kanto long-winged gull was a size larger in both wingspan and beak.

Bai Leiya nodded and said, "Your observation is very keen. If you've ever been to Padiya, you'll find that the long-winged gulls there are even smaller."

"Let's speculate on the reasons."

Ziyu pondered deeply and noticed several long-winged gulls sharing a bag of fries, but high-calorie foods are available in every region.

Until the cruise ship docked, Bai Leiya comforted her:

"It's okay if you can't figure out the answer. The key is to observe and think. It would be even better if you had the habit of keeping records."

Zi Yu's curiosity was piqued instead.

"Teacher Bai Leiya, what exactly causes the regional differences in body size?"

"There are many different answers. One reason is the difference in climate and latitude, and another is the other Pokémon that share the same ecological niche as the gull."

Bai Leiya gave an example: "Padi has a large number of electric petrels, and they tend to spread to other regions as they migrate."

"The gulls are terrified of electric-type moves and dare not compete with the electric petrel for food. If this continues, the gulls in Padia will become smaller and smaller."

"The same applies to the United States and Carlos, who are located on the migration route."

Zi Yu couldn't help but marvel at Bai Leiya's erudition.

"Observation and reflection are the two most important things in social practice. There will be another opportunity for practice in the second semester."

"If you are interested in the northern countryside of Parthia, you can sign up to participate. I will be the teacher leading the team."

Bai Leiya really likes Ziyu, who is serious, intelligent and eager to learn; she is practically the perfect student in the eyes of a teacher.

"Padia... I heard that your ancestral home is there, which is why President Xilan arranged for you to be the team leader?"

“This happened two hundred years ago. My ancestor, Hai Zhe, organized a group of people to go deep into the Padia pit and wrote down their experiences in the Book of Zhu Zi.”

"The accounts in the book were so bizarre that they were regarded as ghost stories."

Bai Leiya sighed: "Perhaps I wanted to prove that the ancestor's notes were correct, which is why I favored the Parthian region in the studio."

The two walked off the bridge with the teachers and students of the Higishi City Trainer School.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. There should be Tingxiang staff at the dock to greet us."

...

Board.

The blue-haired youth wearing surfing goggles waved and said, "Then I will wait for Senior Brother Xinyan and Miss Xinyan in Wudou Town."

"Senior Brother Tengshu, I already told you not to call me Miss, just call me Cai Dou."

The serious-looking girl had short gray hair, and her clothes concealed her wheat-colored skin and well-defined muscles.

Teng Shu didn't know how to reply. Master Si called her "Miss," and it would be too impolite for his apprentice to address her by her given name.

Moreover, Bea's strength as a fighter and trainer surpasses his.

"Young Miss, let's disembark."

Xinyan smiled wryly, never expecting that following his master to the source of their lineage—the Suchuan Town Dojo—would lead to such a troublesome matter.

That battle was between Aya, the strongest successor of the Retrograde style, and Dante, the Galar Champion.

Although we didn't see Aya slumped in a chair, sobbing uncontrollably, she must have been extremely unwilling to accept it, as she was biting her lip so hard.

Despite her defeat, Cai Dou was not discouraged. Instead, she focused even more on training and suggested to her parents that she go to the wilderness for special training on her own.

Recently, Galar has received funding from businesses in other regions, and new facilities are being built in various places.

Suchuan Town is no exception.

Inspired by this new trend, her father—who was also Ah Si's mentor—had the idea of ​​sending Cai Dou to other regions to hone her skills.

The wilderness of the Galar region is already familiar to Bea, but a new region may bring new changes.

At the same time, the disciples of the Su Chuan school are all over the world, which is also an opportunity for Cai Dou to appear in front of her fellow disciples and take over her parents' hidden assets.

Nobuhiko of Kanto, Ayaka of Johto, Fujiki of Hoenn... They travel and hone their skills in various regions, seeking opportunities for advancement.

Under her parents' almost strict educational policies from a young age, Ayaka chose to obey.

So she came.

“Young lady, before you head to the mountains, forests, snowfields and rock walls of Kanto for training, I would like to take you to visit a place.”

"Is this your senior brother's dojo?"

"No, it was a place where I used to work."

Nobuhiko said with a self-deprecating smile, "You may not know, but I went to Mount Raibo for a period of time to train after losing to the psychic Sabrina."

"To my shame, my training in the wilderness was slow, but after returning to Golden City to film a movie, my strength actually improved."

"Sometimes what troubles us fighters is not our physical abilities, but our mental constraints."

My boss once said something very interesting: "Haste makes waste."

"Treat your first day in Kanto as a sightseeing trip. You've already worked hard enough; what you lack isn't necessarily physical training."

"I think the advisor's intention in having the young lady travel to different places was also to let her experience the local customs and culture."

Cai Dou listened carefully to his suggestion and said, "Haste makes waste... I will follow Senior Brother Xin Yan's suggestion."

Nobuhiko suddenly felt a sense of relief.

It would be terrible for the young lady to have those good-for-nothings from her dojo make her first impression of Kanto.

"I have already contacted the film crew in advance. Opportunities to visit the film set up close are probably rare."

"I heard that there are students from Blueberry Academy doing social practice today, and we can go sightseeing with them."

They flagged down a taxi.
