Pokémon battles in real life are not purely based on data performance like in games. Although the factor of attribute restraint still exists, there is actually room for maneuver in reverse attribute battles.

Even so, the three-headed evil dragon was killed in seconds by a magic flash from Zhenyi.

This ancient species of dream demon looks much stronger than our own crawling wings. If we can preserve the team composition and improve its favorability, we may be able to try to climb back to the lower level.

Nan Xian was calculating in his mind, and added another fifty peach fruits to the system backpack reserve in one go.

After all, the reserve of fifty tree fruits should be enough to last for a few days. Nan Xian plans to try to deal with the black fruit in his hand during these few days, and then find time to complete the task of crawling wings.

The girl put down the simulator in her hand, and Ryugong returned to the camp at that moment.

"Ah... I'm so tired."

After several days of fighting with Scyther, Ryugong felt exhausted. She even felt that she was too naive.

The reward for the guard commission in a novice area like the Natural Park is a tangerine ball, so it really has its pros and cons.

Longgong never thought that the party who issued the commission would be so suicidal.

It's just a wild cone tree. If a wild Pokémon is targeting it, so be it. Why just leave it there and fight with that Scyther?

Ryugu is not a bug-type trainer and has no interest in bugs.

That Sly Mantis was quite arrogant. After being defeated and seeing that the Dragon Palace didn't want to subdue it, it became furious and would regroup and challenge again every day.

It took three days to go back and forth. Longgong almost felt sick when he saw the Scyther. Fortunately, Nanxian finally picked the black fruit that he had been waiting for three days.

"Boss, this black cone should be of sufficient quality."

There was a hint of resentment in the blue-haired girl's tone.

"Ah."

Nan Xian nodded.

This black cone is undoubtedly the one that Nan Xian has come into contact with and understands best so far, so before using this cone to make a Poké Ball, Nan Xian has to do more preparatory work.

The initial steps are still the same.

Cut open the skin of the cone, take out the black cone flesh with a complex, indescribable flavor and set it aside.

The flesh of the black cone is characterized by its strong taste, which is also the type that humans find difficult to adapt to. Nan Xian allowed Ergui to try to taste it, while he stretched out his fingertips and touched the inner wall of the cone.

The vein-like network hidden inside the cone now appeared in the girl's field of vision.

Chapter 45: Nan Xian's Work

The history of using cones to make Poké Balls in the Johto region can be traced back to 700 years ago, which is even earlier than the birth of the trainer profession.

Craftsmen of that era would usually hollow out the cones and fill the inside with a special capture net. When using it, they would just throw the ball out and use the net to catch the Pokémon inside the ball. It was a very simple and crude method.

Nan Xian initially thought that the internal structure of the Poké Ball was like this, but after receiving Steel's instruction, she realized that the technology of the Poké Ball had been explored and discovered over the years and was very different from before.

Modern Poké Balls produced by machines have abandoned the cones. The machines will make the outer shell imitate the cones, and then build devices inside the ball. The final product is the Poké Ball that trainers are used to.

Although Poké Ball craftsmen still insist on using cones, they no longer use outdated structures such as capture nets.

According to Steel, about a hundred years ago, craftsmen in the Sinnoh region, which was still called Washicui, improved the Poké Ball crafting technology.

That improvement laid the foundation for modern handmade Poké Balls, and to this day, craftsmen still use cones, jade, and metal to hand-make Poké Balls.

Cones are the most basic material. Craftsmen believe that cones of different colors contain different properties. In order to stimulate the properties of the cones, jade, a specialty of the Sinnoh region, is also indispensable.

Nan Xian took out a jade stone from the package.

"what is this?"

Ryugu, who was watching from the sidelines, was filled with curiosity when he saw the small jade in the girl's hand glowing like fire when illuminated by the light.

"Ruby."

Nan Xian gave a simple explanation, his hands moving constantly.

"This is a specialty of Sinnoh, and it's also the material used to make Poké Balls."

"oh oh."

"Bonnie..."

Erguiyan and Longgong nodded together, not quite understanding what was going on. Although Nanxian didn't mind having someone watching his work, the girl exuded a unique aura after picking up the jade. Longgong, whose curiosity was slightly satisfied, stopped talking.

If Steel heard someone talking while he was making a handmade Poké Ball, he would inevitably frown and scold. After all, manual work is very delicate, and if he can't concentrate, he might accidentally ruin a day's work.

But after Nan Xian strengthened his superpowers, it was easy for him to do two things at once.

Originally, Erguiyan would quietly watch Nanxian work from the side, but now with the addition of Dragon Palace, it doesn’t matter to Nanxian at all.

Nan Xian rubbed the red jade with his fingertips. He was not in a hurry to use tools to process the jade. Thoughts were surging in his mind.

Nan Xian, who has completed all generations of Pokémon games, understands most of the settings in the game.

Among them, the "Jade" system comes from the fourth generation of Pokémon, Pearl Diamond. In the game of Pearl Diamond, players can dig out five types of jade in underground passages.

These jades have no unique effects in the game, they can only be used as trading currency to exchange some items with NPCs.

There are so many unsolved mysteries in the Pokémon world.

Even for Nanxian, there are countless things that he knows but does not know why.

The jade that can stimulate the performance of cones was previously classified as an unsolved mystery in Nanxian's eyes.

She was just a craftsman and had no idea of ​​the principles behind the cone's performance, nor did she know why jade could stimulate the cone's performance.

However, Nan Xian now looked at the jade.

It’s not that the jade of the living creature has no spirit, but in the waveguide vision, Nan Xian can still see the energy ripples as bright as flames constantly surging inside it.

There is a reason why Poké Ball craftsmen use cones and jade to make Poké Balls.

After satisfying his curiosity, Nan Xian blinked and closed the waveguide vision. Without hesitation, he took out the tools and fixed the red jade on the table.

The sharp knife scratched the jade, and the crystal-clear jade like a gem was immediately divided into several pieces, and then continued to be divided into smaller pieces until it turned into thin threads.

——But that’s not enough.

In the past, Nan Xian would have considered the process complete at this point.

But after knowing that there were even more delicate structures inside the cone, Nan Xian was still not satisfied even though the small jade had been cut into pieces as thin as a hair.

She separated some thin filaments from the pile of jade silk and prepared to use tools to slowly grind them into almost invisible dust.

At this point, Long Gong, who had come to watch the fun, was already feeling bored. The girl didn't understand the purpose and didn't want to disturb Nan Xian, so she chose to tiptoe and leave silently, leaving the blue bird to watch.

Nan Xian was focused on what was in front of him, not caring about Long Gong leaving. All he could hear was the hissing sound of tools rubbing against jade.

"..."

The hustle and bustle of the outside world was far away from Erguiyan at this moment. The little evil ghost quietly watched Nan Xian who was immersed in his work. The sunlight shone on the girl through the leaves, and the atmosphere around her changed accordingly.

...Nan Xian said that he would give himself the best Poké Ball.

Uruk-York didn't understand what a Poké Ball was, but it could sense the emotions in the words and knew that it must be a very important action for Nan Xian.

Although he really wanted to cling to Nan Xian, depend on her every moment, want her to play with him, and want to do something together.

Eguiyan, who is afraid of loneliness, is always worried that Nanxian will disappear at some point and doesn't want to let Nanxian out of his sight.

However, when quietly looking at Nan Xian like this, the easily satisfied Erguiliang can also feel the warmth welling up in his heart.

This feeling, compared to the short-lived bliss, is probably more worthy of being experienced slowly over a long period of time...

Erguiyan was vaguely aware that he had changed, but he couldn't tell what the specific changes were.

But at least it's definitely a good thing.

The little devil shook his feet and swayed his body slightly. While his eyes were fixed on the object, an imperceptible and calm joy was emerging from deep within his heart.

……

An hour later, Nan Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

The fine dust in front of her piled up into a small hill, and she completed the preparations she had never done before.

"It's taking longer than I thought..."

Nan Xian, who felt a little tired after a long time, raised his head and happened to meet the eyes of Erguilang who was sitting opposite him. The little evil ghost was stunned for a moment and showed a bright smile.

Because it was his first time, Nan Xian, who did not use his ability to accelerate, actually wasted a lot of time which was usually enough to make a tangerine ball.

And then there is the work of sticking the jade silk to the inside of the cones and then filling the gaps with dust.

"For the remaining content, my super powers can come in handy."

Nan Xian estimated for a moment and felt that he could finish the rest of the work by taking a short break.

But then again.

Nan Xian's gaze shifted to the bluebird that was combing its cotton feathers with its beak on the branch above. The bird saw Nan Xian looking at it and was confused.

"Mee-chi?"

Ryugong didn't return to the camp for an hour.

The girl narrowed her eyes, having a bad feeling in her heart.

Chapter 46 Poachers

The atmosphere in the woods was depressing.

Ryugu put his hand on the Poké Ball at his waist, leaned down slightly, and took in the three people surrounding Scyther not far away.

“Rip…”

This flying mantis looked very familiar to Longgong. In the past three days, it kept challenging him.

But now, it was covered with wounds, entangled in a net made of special material and pressed to the ground. It could only barely support its body with a sickle and cry out stubbornly.

"Team Rocket?"

Because of this, Ryugu, who had been repeating in his mind that he needed to calm down, spoke with obvious anger in his tone.

"How dare you poach in a nature park? Aren't you afraid of being caught?"

Ryuguu observed as he spoke.

The three people were wearing standard Team Rocket uniforms. The last two looked younger, probably in their twenties, one male and one female.

When the young man heard Long Gong's words, his eyes widened and he was stopped by the leading man just as he was about to speak.

"Miss, you have misunderstood."

The smiling middle-aged man posed a greater threat to Dragon Palace than the two young men.

"Our Rocket Team is a legal multi-regional listed company. How could we do something illegal? I happened to encounter this Scyther when I brought the young people from the company to camp. When we tried to tame it, it was too unruly, so we prepared to teach it a little lesson."

Nonsense.

Long Gong spat in his heart.

The Rocket Team's reputation in the Johto and Kanto regions has long been ruined. Everyone knows that although they claim to be a company, they are actually just a group of gangsters.

Lending money, buying and selling Pokémon, stealing...

He is simply doing all kinds of evil.

This uncle with a fake smile on his face obviously wanted to fool the mantis away by saying a few words because he was young.

Long Gong is not a rookie who has just started traveling.

The Rockets are a powerful team, and the fact that they remain active even though they are being closely watched by law enforcement agencies is proof of that.

Even within the league's trainer exchange forum, the experience given by predecessors is not to provoke Team Rocket alone, and if you encounter any illegal facts, it is better to hand it over to law enforcement agencies as much as possible.

But Longgong couldn't swallow this humiliation.

She really only likes Dragon-type Pokémon and is not attracted to Bug-type Pokémon at all, so she was unwilling to capture Scyther that had been defeated by her for three days.

The choice between trainers and Pokémon is a two-way one. Ryugu did not choose Scyther, but even so, Ryugu was willing to admit that this Scyther has backbone and is worthy of being captured by the trainer.

Such a strong-willed Scyther now clearly showed an expression asking for help.

——It doesn't want to be taken away by these three despicable guys.

"is it?"
