Kashiwagi breathed a sigh of relief, the fight was finally over.

Through this battle, he also had an estimate of his current strength.

Steelix can only rotate to the fourth place in the team in terms of hard power, but he was able to defeat Tetsuya's two Pokémon in a row, proving that his strength should be above that of the general tournament champion, and also exceeds that of ordinary gym leaders.

But how far is it from being a superstar?

To be honest, in the previous versions of the anime Journey, there was a clear gap in strength between the superstars and ordinary trainers. The disparity in combat power between the two was terrifying. Unless it was a legendary beast man like Darko, the ordinary champions of the tournament were just serving food.

I wonder if I'll have a chance to fight Bonnie...

He thought with some longing, yet also a little regretful that the Pokémon World Championship had not yet begun.

I guess the first one will be held when Ash goes on a trip to Alola.

Cypress reclaims the sun coral.

"Thank you for your hard work. It's great to have a beginning and an end, right?"

The Poké Ball was quiet, and the Sun Coral inside it obviously didn't want to pay attention to him.

This guy is somewhat vindictive.

He retracted his gaze and looked at Tetsuya who was walking around the giant pit not far away. He took the initiative to greet him and said, "Thank you, Mr. Tetsuya, for your hard work, and your Pokémon."

"No, no, I should be the one thanking you. It was such a wonderful fight."

The disappointment on Tetsuya's face had long faded. He smiled and stretched out his hand, saying, "Just call me by my name, Kashiwagi. I admire you and your Pokémon."

"Excessive praise."

The two of them politely praised each other and took the injured Pokémon to the Pokémon Center to heal.

While waiting, the two chatted. Zhe couldn't help but mention the regret that he couldn't force him to get the third one, and extended an invitation, "If you don't mind, come to my house for dinner tonight? I believe my sister will be very happy."

"Sorry, I have things to do tonight. How about tomorrow?"

Kashiwagi has to buy a mobile phone for Big Mouth Baby next, and he wants to have dinner at the food court, where there is a store that he cares about very much——

【Gotha Duck's Smile】Hoenn branch.

It was opened by his "fellow apprentice", the apprentice of his former role model, Chef Lokomoko.

Chapter 409 Eating Pokémon! ?

Tetsuya and Kashiwagi parted ways.

The two agreed to have dinner at the former's home the next day and exchanged contact information.

"You're so enthusiastic. If you didn't know, you would think I lost."

He looked at Zheye's departing back with emotion.

He is neither arrogant in victory nor discouraged in defeat. Although his strength is not particularly strong, his bearing is indeed extraordinary. I hope I can have a chance to fight with Tetsuya's meow in boots in the future.

Kashiwagi has always been interested in this kind of "heterogeneous" Pokémon.

Of course, it is limited to physical heterogeneity, and personality heterogeneity is not a big deal.

For example, this guy who is still pestering him——

Aerial shot of Rotom.

"Isn't Rotom amazing? Isn't it a bit of a bother for Loto?"

It flies around the cypress trees like an annoying mosquito, occasionally attracting the attention of passers-by.

However, most of their attention was focused on the Porygon that was madly chasing after the air-shot Rotom, because they had never seen such a wonderful thing before.

"Pah! Pah!"

The angry Porygon was trying to drive away Rotom. It had long disliked Pokémon like Rotom, and the latter had repeatedly pestered it, which directly ignited the anger in the heart of this moderate and kind-hearted Porygon.

When the inspection was over, it kept shaking the Poké Ball, and Kashiwagi had no choice but to let it out.

Then a performance of the King of Qin circling the pillar was performed.

Judging from the size difference between the two, this picture looks like a "puppy" howling and chasing a "bird"... or a "duck" chasing a "fly"?

Kashiwagi ignored the sound of Rotom's scream and vaguely heard the conversation of passers-by.

"Mom! What a cute building block duck! It's so big! And it moves!"

"Yeah, it's amazing~ What kind of machinery is installed inside~"

"I want!"

"Eh? We already have so many toys at home, we can't buy more!"

"I want it! I want it! Wow—"

Suddenly, the little kid lying on the ground and walking according to the watch scared Rotom and Porygon. Kashiwagi, who thought Porygon was not a toy, took the opportunity to catch the two.

He doesn't want to be a pillar anymore.

"W-What are you doing? Violently opposing Lotor! This is not a battlefield Lotor!"

The empty Rotom thought he was going to be beaten, and his gourd-like head struggled frantically, trying to break free from his shackles.

Kashiwagi said, "Stop pestering me and I'll let you go."

"That's not possible, Rotom!"

“Hmm!?” “Pah!?”

The changeable beast pretends to be hit.

"Alas!"

Sora Rotom glanced at Kashiwagi and Porygon with a guilty look on his face, and replied, "...Then you can't let it chase me again, Loto."

"Why would it chase you when you are so obedient? What do you think my Porygon is?"

"Crack!"

One person, one Pokémon, and one voice.

Sora patted Rotom and looked away, "Okay, I promise you, Loto."

So it regained its freedom.

But this guy was obviously going to go back on his word, and he started shouting as soon as the four pairs of small propellers turned to create distance.

"I've told you several times that Rotom is very powerful, right? Why are you still pestering me?"

Kashiwagi interrupted what it was about to say and looked at the battlefield in the distance. He could see several unmanned engineering machines moving sand and soil to fill the huge pit dug by Steelix.

Judging from the orange paint and the funny big face on the side, these engineering machines are clearly operated by Rotom.

Being able to use Rotom to this extent, Tiexuan is indeed a top-notch all-round engineer who can create new Violet, inner Violet, and a whole host of mechanisms and mechanical beasts.

Really great.

When Sora Rotom heard his words, he protested, "You're just being perfunctory! That's not sincere enough, Loto!"

God is so perfunctory.

This guy... couldn't he be so bored that he came here to mess with him?

He squinted his eyes, feeling that Pokémon like Rotom might be bored to death. In Dawnbreaker, it even attacked the computer system of the Lotz Building, but was defeated by another wall-climbing human using computer technology.

Suddenly.

The bell rings.

Kashiwagi looked towards the clock tower that made the noise and asked, "It's almost six in the afternoon now, don't you guys at Rotom get off work?"

"get off work?"

Aerial Rotom was startled for a moment, then looked at the big clock in the distance and screamed, "Ah! Six o'clock, six o'clock! I'm late for dinner! Six o'clock--"

This guy turned around and flew away while shouting. He was so persistent before, but now he just ran away.

It can be seen that the previous guess is particularly correct.

Must complain!

I will complain directly to my supervisor Tiexuan tomorrow!

Kashiwagi made up his mind secretly, but suddenly he saw from the corner of his eye that the construction machines at the repair site in the distance also trembled violently, but the speed of the work increased visibly.

Every gesture seems to confirm a sentence -

[If you are not active in eating, there is something wrong with your thinking! 】

"Let's go eat too."

Kashiwagi turned and said to Porygon.

"Pah~"

Porygon nodded, its eyes curved into crescents. It felt much better as long as Rotom was not around.

These two Pokémon are born to clash...

He couldn't help but let out a sigh. Although they had different attributes, they were in conflict because they had similar special abilities. It was simply the Pokémon version of "If you have Yu, why don't you have Liang?"

Although from my own perspective I would rather Porygon not care about this kind of thing, but how could he not care?

What you are good at is done better by others than you, and it has even been accepted by the public.

The position that the other person is in is what the person who created you expects you to reach...

Most sane adults can't stand this, right?

There will definitely be a gap.

What’s more, it’s a dull, honest and mild-mannered building block duck like Porygon.

When Kashiwagi thought about the fact that almost all trainers would be using Rotom Phones in the future, he couldn't help but feel a little sad for Porygon, and thought that maybe he should make his own Porygon Phone.

How can Rotom be allowed to dominate alone?

Break the Pokémon monopoly!

He thought confidently, while Porygon, who was following the trainer, was thinking about whether there would be a chance to get into the computer at night and fight those damn Rotom.
