I made Pokémon come

[What? Frostmilk Fairy is retired again? ]

[It's so funny! A group of people who can only stare at the screen and drool are discussing what version T0 is in front of the only internal test player. ]

【It hurts my heart! 】

The live broadcast room, which had gradually become a Buddhist life due to Jon's leisurely life in recent days, suddenly became lively under the influence of Wind Speed ​​Dog, and at the same time interrupted Jon's thinking.

After taking a look at Windspeed who was still standing there motionless, Jon gave a brief explanation to the excited audience.

"It's called Arcanine, a single fire-type Pokémon that evolved from Growlithe."

【Not spicy? 】

【Isn’t this spicy?】

[What small dog! Oh, just to clarify, I'm not talking about the wind speed dog. ]

Naturally, this simple one-sentence introduction made many viewers who were fascinated by Windy Dog feel dissatisfied, but Jon was also helpless.

"Actually, I don't know much about Arcanine, I just heard...I heard..."

Jon emphasized his words twice as if he was stacking armor on himself, and then continued speaking.

"It is said that Arcanine is a Pokémon that can run tens of thousands of kilometers in a day and night."

【? ? ? 】

[Tens of thousands of kilometers?]

[You may have added two extra zeros! You know, the equator is only 40,000 kilometers long! Four days and nights to run around it? ]

"So it's just what I heard."

Jon shrugged and replied.

As we all know, in the Pokémon world, "it is said" is generally true, but even if Arcanine can really run 10,000 kilometers in one day and night, it is definitely not something that every individual can do.

And even if there is an individual who can achieve this level, the cost will certainly not be underestimated.

Thinking of this, Jon couldn't help but look at the Windspeed Dog in front of him.

The other party's situation was different from what he had learned before. It was not a Pokémon that was brought to the town because its parents, who were "anchors", passed away. Instead, it was a Pokémon that came here as an "anchor".

Jon was particularly sure of this. After all, if Arcanine was the Pokémon that became the "anchor" of this town, then it would definitely not be away for too long.

But why did Windspeed come here?

This is something Jon cares about a lot.

After all, along the way he also saw many Pokémon who stubbornly stayed where they were and waited after their human friends disappeared, and they would make the same choice even if their human friends died normally.

So Jon didn't think that Arcanine would do the opposite, not to mention that the other party had the same characteristics as Lucario.

Heart of justice!

But to Jon's regret - Windy Dog, who should have sensed his presence and came here, ended up saying nothing. Instead, the Four Seasons Deer, who was originally playing around him, ran up to him affectionately after seeing Windy Dog.

Although his thoughts were interrupted, Windy Dog was not angry. He just licked the Four Seasons Deer gently and turned away.

The huge body also scared the meerkat who was returning with a large ball of cotton on his back.

Just when the meerkat was curious about the big guy who had just left, the bronze bell knocked on its body again.

Bronze Bell said that Four Seasons Deer was the child brought back by Windy Dog.

"Silkki~!"

Shiki Deer narrowed his eyes happily and talked about the time when he was also frightened when he met Windy Hound.

The little guy said that he had never seen such a big Pokémon and thought he was going to be eaten.

This statement made the meerkat nod continuously.

"Boom~"

A rhythmic bell sound once again joined the communication between Jon and the Pokémon.

"Hmm...was that big guy still very small when he first came to town?"

Gengar, who had already started to sort out the cotton that Mongoose had brought back, showed an interested expression when he heard the bell.

"Is that the Katie that Jon just mentioned?"

"Hmm... Growlithe is probably about the same size as you, Gengar..."

Jon gestured with his hands. He felt that if Gengar was lying flat on the ground, it should be about the same size as Growlithe.

"And if Growlithe wants to evolve into Ardennes, it needs the help of a Fire Stone or a substitute with similar functions, so it should have evolved successfully after it grew up and left the town."

Four Seasons Deer tilted his head.

The little guy had never seen an evolution stone, but soon he didn't care.

It began to compete with cotton.

And Jon looked at the bronze bell.

"Is Katie the bronze bell that you and the old man brought back together?"

If there are no "anchor points" among the Pokémon that have not yet returned, then this is the only possibility left.

After all, other Pokémon that have never actually seen humans would definitely not be able to convince Windrush to come here.

The bronze bell gave an affirmative answer.

Jon said to himself, "As expected!" This also meant that this wind speed dog was also very old.

"What happened to Windspeed's friend?"

"Boom~"

The bronze bell tapped gently on its body, telling what it had seen at that time.

The story is not complicated.

This happened more than 30 years ago, and it was also the last time the old man had the energy to travel around the country.

This sentence made Jon couldn't help but look at the unknown totem that was still quietly staying in the study. Although he had already guessed that it was with the help of the unknown totem that the old man was able to travel around the country with the bronze bell, he still felt a little incredible when he really confirmed it.

The old man in the other world was also stunned.

He didn't expect that Windspeed was actually related to that trip.

Although it was not the last stop in his search for "ruins", to be honest, what he saw on that trip had a great impact on him.

Chapter 230: Waiting for the Windy Dog

After learning about the origin of Windy Dog, the old man felt a little uneasy.

In fact, the factor that finally made him let go of his obsession was not just the fact that he gained nothing in the process.

In order to see such "ruins" again, he often went to those remote mountain villages at that time.

His rich experience enabled him to easily get along with the children in those places.

This was also the way he used to inquire about unknown totems and murals, but the unintentional words he heard from a little boy that time made him seriously think about the significance of continuing to do so.

To this day, the old man still remembers that sentence clearly.

[“I wish my father was as interesting as you, uncle. He’s not only boring but he hasn’t been home for years.”]

This sentence had a great impact on him.

In the eyes of those children, he is very interesting because he can make up many interesting stories at will, but those children obviously don’t know that he may be the same in the eyes of their own children.

The old man silently turned off the radio that was playing an opera and looked at the screen carefully.

...

...

"Boom~"

The rhythmic bell continued to ring, telling everyone what was happening to Caterpillar in the bronze bell's eyes at that time.

Unlike the old man who was able to get help from the unknown totem because he met Jirachi, Growlithe and his friends were not so lucky.

But just as Jon had guessed before, Caterpillar did not choose to leave on its own initiative.

But...

"Kou Jie? At that time, Katie's friends asked it to leave a few years ago, but Katie has been waiting for Kou Jie there all this time?"

After hearing what Bronze Bell said, Gengar's jaw dropped to the ground.

Well...it really fell to the ground, and Shikiguru was startled.

Mimikyu was touched, but then confused by what Bronze Bell said.

Bronze Bell said that after Growlithe's friend left this sentence, he never came back. If it hadn't promised Growlithe that "if you follow it, you may see your friend again in the future" before taking Growlithe away, the other party might have waited there forever.

And even though so many years have passed and it has evolved into Arcanine, the other party will still go back to check on it regularly.

That's the whole story.

"So I am the bronze bell you promised me back then?"

Jon couldn't help but ask, as he heard something from the Bronze Bell's story, but the Bronze Bell remained silent again.

The opera music sounded again, making Gengar and the others even more confused.

But Jon frowned slightly.

The reason for his frown was not that Bronze Bell pretended not to hear his question, but that he realized that there might be some hidden secret in Wind Speed's past.

What he saw and heard along the way told him that the relationship between Pokémon and humans is one of mutual attraction, rather than a one-sided relationship.

Whether your personalities are compatible is definitely a very important factor.

A heart of justice...?

Lucario's actions told Jon that the characteristics he saw were not just 'characteristics' in the game.

...

...

While Jon was lost in thought, so was the old gentleman who turned on the radio again.

He had always thought that the child's father was working away from home and had no chance to come back, but what Bronze Zhong saw was different.

The child's father was prepared to never come back when he left.

What happened?

The memory was too old for the old man to recall the details of the situation at that time. After all, the most important thing to him was that sentence.

He could no longer remember the child's appearance or name, nor the location of the other's home.

The only one who remembered this incident was probably the wind speed dog just now.

So the next step is to send that Windy Dog to this world?

But it has been more than 30 years...

Judging from Windspeed's tireless efforts over the years, it is obvious that it did not wait for its friend to come back. What was he thinking at that time when he already knew what would happen in the future through Jirachi?

The child's complaining words reappeared in the old man's mind.

He realized what he was thinking at that time.

Maybe he wanted Windspeed to meet the child.

...

...

Need to send Windy Dog back to the other side?

Judging from the current situation, this is indeed the most appropriate approach, and the second most appropriate approach is to let Windy Dog take him to that place to have a look.

It's just that the latter may not make much sense.

After all, so much time has passed.
