Pokémon: Who let him leave Pallet Town?

Chapter 346 Your Electric Dragon Might Be a Little Excited

While normal people are still discussing countermeasures, smart people have already begun to take action.

Soon, Natsume followed Kaka to the very top of the lighthouse, which was filled with floor-to-ceiling windows and resembled the spire of a small pavilion.

"Um, so you're a researcher?" Kasumi looked at Natsume with hopeful eyes.

"Yes."

"So, you came here to get the badge?"

"Of course."

"So, so you actually knew all along, and that's why you secretly came here, hoping to get cured."

Before Xia could finish imagining it, she saw Xia Mu arrive at the seaside and find a sofa to sit down.

"Indeed, the view of the sea from here is quite good."

Natsume gazed at the sea before him.

It was midday, and the blazing sun pounded on the sea, causing tens of thousands of pieces of silver foil to dance and sway wildly.

"Cannes!"

Zapdos hopped down from Natsume's head, captivated by the scenery, its face pressed against the glass, staring intently at the sea.

"Um, Mr. Researcher, would you like to see Jasmine?"

Ke Xia walked over, holding the hand of an electric dragon.

Natsume glanced over and noticed that the electric dragon was lying listlessly on the ground. Even though Kasumi was holding its hand, it was being dragged along with all four limbs.

"Is this electric dragon named Jasmine?"

"Yes, that's right."

Natsume was completely at ease, while she became reserved.

"Don't be so nervous, just make yourself at home, have a seat!"

When everyone reached the top and opened the door, they heard Natsume's words.

"."

“Kexia!” Ami glanced at the other person.

"I...I just wanted to help you with some of the work."

Xia let go of the electric dragon's hand and walked away angrily.

"Miss Ami, is this the sick Pokémon you were talking about?"

Ash curiously took out his Pokédex and pointed it at the Ampharos named Jasmine.

[Amphioxus, a light-emitting Pokémon, has a glowing organ at the tip of its tail that can project light over long distances. It is bred in many lighthouses in the Johto region.]

“No wonder, Miss Ami also runs a lighthouse,” Xiaoxia said with a smile.

“Yes, but the child has been listless these days.” Ami rubbed her temples, looking troubled.

"Its body is perfectly normal."

Natsume's voice suddenly rang out.

Ami turned her head and looked at the other person in surprise:

“You’re right, Joey who came to check said the same thing, but Jasmine just has no fighting spirit and is listless.”

"I have the test report here, take a look."

Natsume could tell at a glance that there was nothing wrong with Jasmine's body and that she must be quite skilled. A glimmer of hope ignited in Ami's heart.

"Miss Ami, don't you have any other Pokémon you can use for the test?"

While Ami went to get her test results, Xiaozhi asked her out of curiosity.

"No," Ami shook her head.

"Huh?" Everyone was puzzled.

"In the Chengdu area, there are only eight officially recognized dojo trainers, and their jobs are absolutely secure."

Natsume's voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone was taken aback, only then realizing that the gym leader they had challenged in the Chengdu area could not be said to be a Pokémon proficient in a certain type.

They could be said to be experts in a particular Pokémon.
It seems that as long as the minimum standard for assessment is maintained, that's enough.

"As expected, there still needs to be competition," Ash said, stroking his chin. He thought of the completely opposite Kanto region.

In Kanto dojos, performance is the primary factor.

A high or low approval rate will cause problems, and may even prevent the business from operating.

But correspondingly, with these gym leaders busy, it became much easier for the challengers.

"for you."

Ami pulled out the electric dragon's medical report and handed it to Natsume.

Natsume took it, his pupils glowing with golden light. After scanning it a few times, he had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

“Your electric dragon should be entering a dormant period.” “Dormant period?” Ami tilted her head.

“After each evolution, Pokémon with a significantly different appearance will have a quiet period.”

"During this period, they find it difficult to adapt to the body structure and movement patterns that are completely different from before their evolution, which can lead to low mood and depression."

As Natsume spoke, he searched for the evolutionary chain of Dragonite on his phone:

"Generally speaking, in the long process of evolution, Pokémon that are significantly different before and after evolution need to have a very high evolution level, which is conducive to adaptation and quickly getting through the dormant period."

As he spoke, Natsume looked at the electric dragon.

Clearly, the electric dragon evolved from a four-legged sheep to walking upright at level 15, and then to evolving at level 30, shedding all its fur.

It was a bit too fast for Jasmine.

After listening to Natsume's explanation, Ami nodded thoughtfully:

“You’re right, this kid is evolving faster than other electric dragons.”

"Other Ampharos?" Ash grasped the key word.

"Sorry, little brother, those electric dragons all have to work at the lighthouse," Ami said apologetically.

"Mr. Natsume, is there any way to quickly help Jasmine get through this period?" Ami asked hopefully.

“A solution.” Natsume frowned.

It's not an illness; it's just like a woman's period every month—you can only wait for it to pass.

After thinking for a moment, Natsume took out a bottle of water.

"Grandpa Laden's stimulants, Natsume-kun, how come you still have them?" Ash exclaimed.

"Huh?" Seeing that Natsume was about to give his electric dragon a stimulant, Ami quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Never mind, why don't you come back later?"

“Actually, this is a treatment method,” Natsume said seriously.

“I don’t believe it.” Ami looked at the other person warily.

"Okay, let's try a gentler approach."

As Natsume spoke, he took out a stone slab.

A faint bluish-green light emanated from the top of the stone slab.

"What is this?" Ami stared curiously at the stone slab in Natsume's hand.

"Next, I will perform a mysterious energy infusion ritual."

Natsume raised the Celebi Slab in his hand with a serious expression.

Ami: "."

Now they're omitting even the scientific aspects and starting to believe in superstition, is that it?

"Never mind, never mind." Ami suddenly regretted bringing Natsume up.

No, Natsume came uninvited.

However, the next second, a light blue mist spread out, and Ami froze on the spot.

The incredibly comfortable, warm air entered her body with her breath, making her feel warm and cozy, and even improving her mood without her realizing it.

A thought suddenly popped into Ami's mind.

Why don't we let Natsume give it a try?
"Does it really work?"

Although that's what she said, Ami still took a half step back, making room for Natsume.

The blue light flickered and danced, and the telekinetic energy collected the dissipating turquoise mist, guiding it into the electric dragon's body.

"Uno!"

The electric dragon shuddered, and it suddenly opened its eyes, stood up, and straightened its hind legs.

"Why is green gas coming out of my electric dragon?" Ami asked curiously.

"This is normal."

"What about the blue one?"

"normal."

"What is this black mist?"

"That's right."

A flash of black energy passed through the electric dragon's eyes.

Natsume was slightly taken aback.

Oh no, it seems he subconsciously used blue telekinesis to introduce the black pollution into the electric dragon's body as well.

Unfortunately, the first thing telekinesis gets involved with is the mental realm.

"Um, your electric dragon might get a little excited later."
