The matter-of-fact expression made Kashiwagi feel that farming at home was different.
City kids of his age may not have ever been exposed to Pokémon if they have not gone to a trainer school, and they may just go to an ordinary high school like the brother and sister in the movie "Everyone's Story".
Green Town.
Although it is known as the town with the best environment, there are many modern facilities and high-rise buildings.
However, there are basically no cars on the streets, most of the cars are power-assisted bicycles, and the vegetation coverage rate is extremely terrifying. Most residential areas are covered with green trees, and the walls of many small buildings are covered with ivy.
Pokémon Center
As expected, there are no single rooms.
Kashiwagi had to look for a place to stay elsewhere, but the hotels here were much more popular than he had expected. There were not many people walking on the streets, but he went to three or four hotels and they were all full.
The hotel is not...
Guest house?
Or maybe I should just buy a house in Greenery Town! My wallet is quite full right now. Although the houses in Greenery Town are expensive, you get what you pay for and they are not pigeon coops. If I live in Hoenn in the future, it might be a good choice to have a house here.
Thinking of this, he actually started looking for a real estate agent.
Unexpectedly, after turning left and right, the real estate agent didn't see it, but saw a figure that looked somewhat familiar and a little strange.
"Messy emerald green hair, a sickly and frail temperament like a good baby, and a Lululemon that always accompanies him..."
Kashiwagi called out tentatively.
"Fully charged?"
"Eh?"
The green-haired boy and Aledo turned their heads curiously, but found no one there. They looked around blankly, "Who, who is calling me?"
He asked tremblingly.
After a long time of no response, he and Eledo left quickly.
Kashiwagi, who was hiding behind a coffee shop sign, had a strange look on his face.
Following the purple-haired Fire Goose and the plump Fire Village, one of the game protagonist's rivals, the sickly boy Manchong, also appears.
Doesn't that mean Xiaoyou (Yushu) also exists?
Although Xiaoyou appeared in the opening of the movie several times, it is still hard to believe that he did not appear in the main film like Kenta.
He pulled the corner of his mouth and searched Manchong's name on his phone. He actually found the latter's entry. It showed that Manchong was the runner-up of the Caiyou Conference two years ago.
And the champion——
It’s Xiaoyou without a doubt.
The iconic white headgear and the ace Swampert are proof of this.
In other words, Xiaoyou started out one year later than Xiaozhi and Xiaoyao, but won the championship of the Hoenn region Caiyou Conference, and his competitor Manchong won the runner-up.
Kashiwagi's heart was filled with all kinds of complicated emotions for a moment.
To be honest, it is somewhat disappointing not to be able to compete with these "game protagonists". After all, strong opponents can be considered a driving force for growth.
He was about to turn off his phone when he saw a video of Manchong's cousin Aman cheering for him and advertising the homestay she opened.
The video was released almost three years ago and has received very few views.
...What a coincidence?
I'm afraid it's the lucky scale that's showing off its power again.
I'm looking for a place to stay anyway, so I might as well go over and take a look.
Baimu thought about it and found Aman's homestay according to the address in the video. The brown door was wrapped in colorful flowers, and there was a wooden sign outside saying it was open for business.
Push the door and enter.
"welcome!"
A weak and neutral voice sounded.
When Kashiwagi looked over, he saw Manchong whom he had just met.
This guy's voice is not much different from that in Master Bao, full of delicate boyishness. He is currently cleaning with a broom.
However, although he looks like he will cry for a long time if he gets hit by a punch, he is actually a powerful trainer who won the second place in the tournament right after his debut...
"Hello."
Kashiwagi nodded, "I'd like to check in, is there any room available?"
"There are some!"
Man Chong quickly trotted to the counter and asked, "What kind of room do you want to book?"
Just like in the setting, he is a very polite boy.
Baimu said: "I hope it's a large suite with its own kitchen. Do you have one here?"
"Sorry! There are no rooms with kitchens!"
Manchong bowed suddenly, almost scaring him, "But, there is a public kitchen..."
"...A public kitchen is fine, but how high should the room be?" he continued to ask. If the room was not high enough, it might be very uncomfortable for Boscodo to live there.
After some negotiation.
Kashiwagi finally got the key to the room from the other party, and the price was reasonable.
But what I didn’t expect was that the room was in neon style, with paper screens and tatami, and a walkway that could be opened to see the courtyard.
"Are you satisfied?"
Manchong, who was leading the way, asked cautiously.
Kashiwagi had a strange expression and pointed at his nose, "Do I look fierce?"
"of course not!"
Man Chong shook his head in panic.
"Then why are you talking so breathlessly as if I'm going to beat you up at any time?" After his initial negotiations with Man Chong, he felt that this kid was somewhat inexperienced.
“I’m just worried about not serving my guests well.”
The latter forced a smile on his shy face, then bowed sharply to ninety degrees, "I'm so sorry!"
Kashiwagi: "..."
During the silence, a young woman in a dress trotted over and quickly put on an apologetic smile on her face, "I'm really sorry, this is my cousin, he just started helping me run the store recently, please forgive me if there's anything inconsiderate."
"No, the service was very considerate, but they should have been more courageous and raised their voices a little."
Kashiwagi looked at the other person and said, "Are you the boss here, Aman?"
"Yes!"
"I hope you will take good care of me in the coming days." He nodded to the two of them, "Then I'll send you here."
pat.
The door is closed.
Aman and Manchong looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief.
The former smiled and said, "It seems that you can already entertain guests on your own! Very impressive! Full of energy!"
"Hey hey hey..."
Manchong scratched his hair embarrassedly.
Is it better to divide such a huge chapter into smaller chapters? Or is it better to divide it into 4000 chapters?
Chapter 336: Fighting the Runner-up (Three-in-one Chapter)
Battle tent.
After getting a preliminary understanding of the process and watching the video, Kashiwagi became more and more interested in it.
The actual situation is somewhat different from what the Watermelon-Headed Imp said, because the trainer is not completely powerless. The only thing he can control is to replace Pokémon.
Once you find that something is wrong with a Pokémon, you can ask it to withdraw from the battle field and replace it with another Pokémon.
In a sense, this allows Pokémon to demonstrate their ability to fight independently while ensuring that trainers have a certain degree of participation, which is very good.
The fact that the final reward, the Pokémon egg, is actually a "blind box" is really unbearable.
The winner has no right to choose, he just gets whatever the organizer gives him, and it is not fixed.
Some people were full of expectations and won in the end, but the Pokémon eggs they got turned out to be those of Thornier and Russo. How could they calm down as they were looking forward to getting rare Pokémon?
Besides, it’s not like the organizers of the battle tent don’t have rare Pokémon eggs.
but.
It is precisely this lottery-like result that attracts many idle trainers to participate enthusiastically, and everyone wants to gamble on their own fortune.
The same is true for cypress, which has lucky scales on its body.
Even though he was not sure that Boskodora and the others would definitely win in the end.
“Always give it a try.”
Kashiwagi looked at his Pokémon with a smile. There happened to be a competition in the battle tent tomorrow, and the registration had not yet closed.
Suddenly.
There was a knock on the door outside.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of full charging was heard.
"Hello, excuse me for disturbing you, but it's time for dinner. If you don't mind, we can provide meals, whether it's your dinner or the Pokémon's dinner..."
"No thanks."
“…Okay, okay.”
Da da da.
