Pokémon, Dragon Dance Round Shark

Zhai Nan, the counselor of the 'Pokémon Battle Department', will take him to the official Pokémon breeding house in cooperation with Shanghai University.

"Knock-a-chicken (here, here)-----!"

At the school gate, Zhao Qinghan waved.

Not only the champion of the 'Sprout Cup', but also the runner-up and third place winners will receive this reward, or benefit, from the school.

After all, it is an on-campus event, and the rewards for the competition do not seem to be so 'winner takes all'.

There is a feeling that reaching the semi-finals is indeed a success.

"Where did you go after watching the game yesterday?!"

Zhao Qinghan asked curiously.

After saying hello, the person disappeared, which inevitably aroused people's curiosity.

Under normal circumstances, their relationship wouldn't be good enough to check on each other's attendance like this.

"I met an online friend and spent the whole day chatting with him about... Pokémon breeding and training together."

Bai Mingyao said with a serious expression.

He didn't tell any lies.

Healthy, so damn healthy!

----He was so healthy that he wanted to brag about his diligence and hard work. Even when he met strangers online, all he talked about and did the whole day were things related to Pokémon breeding.

"Oh, so that's what it's like."

Zhao Qinghan couldn't help but chuckle. It felt a bit strange that they met online friends and ended up chatting about Pokémon breeding and Pokémon training-related matters for the entire day.

But I can't find any fault with it.

Otherwise, is his mind full of dirty stuff, planning for something weird to happen on the first night of meeting? !

"Still smiling, there's a Pokémon trainer who's more powerful and better than you, and who also works harder than you. Shouldn't you be feeling a sense of crisis at this moment?"

Bai Mingyao said in anger.

"Oh, by the way, the Pokémon trainer I'm referring to is the friend I met offline yesterday."

Chapter 071: A fierce punch

"Hehe, if you say so, then it must be so."

Zhao Qinghan thought that Bai Mingyao's words were directed at himself, but he was too embarrassed to brag about himself.

That's too shameless.

Even if it's the 'truth', you can't say it casually!

However, Shirona is indeed a much stronger Pokémon trainer than Zhao Qinghan, and the two of them are now... it can be said that they are not in the same arena at all.

But what’s interesting is that the League Champions, the Elite Four, and the gym trainers are all very remarkable, possessing both strength and status.

To use an analogy from the original world, it was probably a combination of being the head of a state and the most capable fighter within the state.

Meow meow meow, -----Arnold Schwarzenegger, the 'governor' of California?

However, in the Pokémon world, these people who seem to be in a high position are not arrogant at all.

Bai Mingyao could sense that Sirona and Miss Yulongchun were not acting in a humble and unassuming manner just because they had something to ask of him.

But they really don't think from the bottom of their hearts that just because they debuted earlier and are currently Pokémon trainers with stronger strength and higher status, they are superior to others, as if they are much more noble than Bai Mingyao, a rookie Pokémon trainer who is still in school.

Living in such a world and the good atmosphere in it really makes Bai Mingyao feel very comfortable.

"..."

Of course, what if you are facing someone who is uneducated, depraved, and joins a villain organization, or a Pokémon poacher or "One-Ball Man" who uses despicable means to steal Pokémon?

It is indeed possible to act superior and look down on such people.

..........................................

A moment later, led by Zhai Nan, the counselor of the 'Pokémon Battle Department', Bai Mingyao and his team arrived at the Pokémon Breeding House that was officially co-operated with Shanghai University.

What appeared in front of Bai Mingyao was called the "Pokémon Breeding House".

It is actually a huge park, an ecological dome.

It's not like in the Pokémon game, where there is just a small wooden house with a pasture behind it and a kind old grandfather and grandmother in charge of the small Pokémon breeding house.

Of course, in some rural towns and villages, the size of the Pokémon breeding houses may be like this.

"Such a large area is actually the territory of a Pokémon breeding house?"

This was Bai Mingyao's first time to come to a real Pokémon breeding house... How should I put it? It was consistent with his understanding of the "100% realism" of open world Pokémon, but it was also a bit inconsistent with the stereotypes brought from the original Pokémon games.

"Although it is a breeding house, it is essentially a large Pokémon ecological park, covering an area of ​​more than 8,000 acres. Students majoring in Pokémon breeding from Shanghai universities come here for internships every year."

"And there are quite a few senior students who also deposit their Pokémon here, as well as school graduates and faculty members. There are quite a few powerful Pokémon here!"

Counselor Zhai Nan said with a bit of pride on her face.

Although it is not as good as the two most famous schools in Donghuang area, nor as good as the two most famous colleges in Padya area.

However, Shanghai University is one of the most prestigious schools in the entire Shanghai area, and its supporting facilities are naturally not bad.

"-----I see."

Bai Mingyao nodded thoughtfully.

In reality, breeding Pokémon is of course not like "storing network data", where you capture a large number of Pokémon and put them directly into the computer system.

Open any Pokémon column at random, and the BOX will be filled with hundreds of Pokémon, icons, and avatars, making it look crowded.

For the vast majority of Pokémon trainers, raising Pokémon is like raising family members, and they must accompany them day and night in their daily lives.

"It's not a big deal if you raise a second or even a third Pokémon. If they haven't evolved to their final stage, they won't be that big. But if you raise more Pokémon than that, there won't be enough space for one person living in a single dormitory."

The daily expenses of raising Pokémon are no less than the cost of training them.

It is said that the Pokémon League established a rule that limited a Pokémon trainer to carry six Pokémon.

It is precisely because once this number is exceeded, the trainer may not be able to ensure their normal cultivation, thus causing abuse to the Pokémon.

However, if a Pokémon trainer is confident in his or her breeding capabilities and funds, it is not uncommon for him or her to carry twelve Poké Balls.

If you have Pokémon that exceed the number you can carry, you can temporarily deposit them in a Pokémon breeding house at a cost.

Or you can entrust it to a Pokémon professor you know, which is a common practice.

The homes of the wealthier and more powerful Pokémon trainers are even big enough to keep Pokémon free. The doghouse they prepare for Growlithe is bigger than the house where a normal family of three lives.

"Are you thinking about the third, or even more Pokémon so soon?"

Zhao Qinghan couldn't help but laugh and said, "You really like Pokémon, Mr. Bai."

She went to Poke-TV yesterday to check out the live broadcast room that Bai Mingyao mentioned, and only then did she discover that Bai Mingyao's tactical reserves regarding Pokémon breeding and Pokémon battles were astonishing.

It is even more impressive than what he has shown so far, as he defeated a Pokémon Battle Department student and won the Sprout Cup Freshman Challenge as a non-Pokémon Battle Department student.

"..."

In this case, I'm afraid the only explanation is that he really loves Pokémon too much.

Therefore, before becoming a new Pokémon trainer, he had already learned and mastered a lot of relevant knowledge in advance.

Just like in high school, many excellent students start studying college courses in advance after being admitted.

Or in the professional league, top professional players have already started studying their opponents in MSI and the World Championship before the playoffs and finals even begin.

-----Um??!

Why do I feel that the example I mentioned later seems a little strange? !

All in all, in Zhao Qinghan's opinion, Bai Mingyao's level of hard work is indeed enough to make the students of the 'Pokemon Battle Department' and 'Training Department' feel ashamed.

Only love and interest are the best teachers.

"Plan ahead for a rainy day and take every step carefully."

Bai Mingyao curled his lips and said, "Since it is an official Pokémon breeding house, if students from Shanghai University place their Pokémon here, there should be preferential terms, right?!"

"I don't know~"

"Nani?!"

Zhao Qinghan shook his head and said, "I really don't know. I keep all my Pokémon at home. I usually take care of the flowers in the garden at home and cultivate beautiful flowers with bright colors and fragrant smells."

Damn, rich woman.

We are from different classes and cannot be 'comrades' to each other. Goodbye!

..........................................

After completing the entry procedures at the entrance of the Pokémon Breeding House, the group continued to move deeper into the ecological courtyard.

Forest, sand, river, grassland, girl's skirt (crossed out)...

There are all kinds of Pokémon in all kinds of habitats, which are dazzling to the eyes.

This is the area where Bai Mingyao originally wanted to go, where he could capture wild Pokémon.

Unfortunately, the Shanghai area seemed a bit too "urbanized", which resulted in him not being able to find where to catch wild Pokémon.

You can only capture Pokémon in this special "Pokémon Breeding House" within the ecological park.

Inside the Eco Dome, flying in the sky are Pidgeot, Rocket, Mukor, Dove and other "Flying" Pokémon, commonly known as "home birds".

The river is home to common "water-type" Pokémon such as Marill, Goldfish, Seahorse, Magikarp, and Starfish.

There were also house bugs, house rats, etc. Bai Mingyao was simply dazzled.

Even Zhao Qinghan who was standing by had an expression of admiration. After all, no matter how big her backyard was, no matter how vast and beautiful Huayedi's garden was, it could not be compared with the professional 'Pokémon Breeding House' and 'Ecological Park'.

"..."

The taciturn third place winner of the Sprout Cup, Zhang Nanhai, looked up at the Flying Pokémon flying above the ecological park with a thoughtful expression.

In addition to determining the direction of "facing the north", running fast is also important.

So the Pokémon he wanted to get was Pidgeot and Pidgeot, which had the second fastest flying speed among all Pokémon and could fly at a speed of 'Mach 2'.

-----Go ahead four!

"Just look around here and see which Pokémon you want to get."

The counselor said enthusiastically.

But students all have their own choices and their own Pokémon preferences, so he is only responsible for leading the way here and will not interfere with the students' own decisions.

"Aww, what a cute Nidoran and Nidoran."

A pair of Nido family Pokémon jumped out from the bushes on the side of the road, a common Pokémon CP combination.

Zhao Qinghan couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw these two Pokémon with similar bodies but different colors being so affectionate with each other.

For male Nidoran, the evolutionary chain is from Nidoran to Nidorino and then to Nidoking.

As for female Nidoran, the evolutionary chain is Nidoran, Nidorina, and Nidoqueen.

Frankly speaking, Nidoking and Nidoqueen...are still pretty cool Pokémon. Although they don't have 'dragon-type' attributes, they look like little cartoon dinosaurs.

I wonder if there is anyone like Bai Mingyao who played the FC game of the same era as Pokémon when he was a child, ----- "MapleStory".

There, the two most commonly used mounts by the protagonist are small dinosaurs that can spit fire and ice, which are very similar to Nidoking and Nidoqueen.

There are also flying mounts of pterosaurs, like fossilized flying dragons.

An underwater plesiosaur mount, like Laplace.

There is no Pokémon that is 100% suitable for a Triceratops that can roll, but it is very similar to Ironclad Rhino... and even the ancient paradox Pokémon, Skybreaker, which is also based on "Triceratops" and "Spirithorax".
