Pokémon Scenario: Intercepting Gible at the Start

"The difference between the shimmering and non-shimmering colors of the Froakie is not significant; this color difference only becomes obvious when it evolves into the Greninja."

After speaking, Zhang Qing, with Shang Qiu's permission, took a closer look and came to a conclusion.

"This croaking frog is definitely shiny!"

Upon hearing Zhang Qing's conclusion, the sarcasm on Chen Tian's face vanished, his legs went weak, and he almost couldn't support himself.

A huge commotion also broke out at the entrance of the breeding house, and the commotion had already attracted many other people to gather around.

"It's a shiny starter Pokémon! The black Greninja must be super cool!"

"It's been quite a few years since any of our Jizhong City's newborn sprites have been Shiny."

"Hehe, these two kids are betting against each other. It's obvious that Chen Tian was the one who was pushing them too hard. Now he's in a bad position, isn't he? How funny."

Hearing the crowd's comments, Chen Tian's expression grew increasingly grim.

I absolutely cannot let Shang Qiu win. This isn't about the five million; it's about saving face in front of Chen Ying.

He's going to gamble on eggs too!

Chapter 17 The Rich Woman's Favor

Because he was going to gamble on eggs, Chen Tian selected eggs that were about to hatch, and he bought the most expensive ones here, the "Big Three" eggs, each worth 500 million.

An hour later, Chen Tian looked at the three ordinary starter Pokémon in front of him with a grim expression.

Not a single flash!

This is actually quite normal, as shiny Pokémon are rare to begin with.

But Chen Tian had no way out. He still had five million left, enough to buy an egg, or he could lose the money to Shang Qiu.

"You lost." Shang Qiu played with the bubbles on the frog's neck, which felt cool and comfortable.

Chen Tian's face turned pale, and he felt dizzy and disoriented. Everyone in the crowd was pointing and whispering, as if they were laughing at him.

This feeling drove Chen Tian somewhat mad.

He has always been a chosen one since childhood, and he has never received such treatment before.

"Where are the staff? I donated a million to the league. I don't want the starter three anymore, I want to bet on eggs!"

A staff member stepped forward and kindly explained, "Sir, your donation is for receiving the starter kit."

“If you use it for other purposes, this money can only be considered as one million, and you will be at a disadvantage.”

However, Chen Tian wouldn't listen at all and rudely interrupted the staff.

"Do I look like someone who's short of money? Hurry up and give me the eggs!"

The staff member left dejectedly, giving Chen Tian a million-dollar Pokémon egg that was about to hatch.

Shang Qiu activated his Eye of the Spirit and glanced at the miniature Rayquaza inside the Pokémon egg.

He shook his head and started eating sunflower seeds.

After one hour...

The green caterpillar hatched, completely shattering Chen Tian's psychological defenses.

"what!"

Enraged, Chen Tian grabbed the caterpillar and tried to throw it to the ground.

But Caterpie is an elf, no matter how weak it is!

Seeing that Chen Tian wanted to attack it, the green caterpillar straightened up and lunged at Chen Tian's arm.

"puff--"

With a muffled thud, a large gash appeared on Chen Tian's hand from the caterpillar's puncture wound.

Before Chen Tian could make a move, the staff called in security personnel.

"Help! Someone is attacking the Pokémon in our breeding center!"

Several old men immediately approached with forks and quickly forked Chen Tian away.

Chen Tian glared resentfully at Shang Qiu, then tossed down five million and tried to leave.

After this egg-gambling incident, Chen Tian had no money left to buy the Warm Pig and only planned to go home to ask for some money before coming back.

But before he could even get on the bus, he saw someone carrying a warm pig out of the car. Chen Tian felt as if he had lost something important and felt extremely frustrated.

It was all Shang Qiu's fault!

"Shang Qiu, let's have another competition in the college entrance exam in a month. We'll only compete on ability, not rarity. Do you dare?"

Seeing that Chen Tian still wanted to gamble, Shang Qiu was immediately amused.

"Still five million?"

After receiving an affirmative answer from Chen Tian, ​​Shang Qiu happily carried the croaking frog back to the breeding house.

Young Master Chen will come back to pay the bill in a month; we should celebrate!

"Water-based energy blocks, 100 blocks needed."

"There are still quite a few Ground and Dragon types left, but each one costs 50 yuan."

"Oh, right, we also need to order some large milk jugs of milk for the Froggy Frog."

To be honest, it's really satisfying to use your enemy's money to raise your own Pokémon!

A short while later, Shang Qiu walked onto the bus with large bags and small packages, attracting everyone's attention.

Chen Ying moved closer to Shang Qiu and hugged the frog tightly. "Shang Qiu, why did you buy so many things at once? You can't just spend money recklessly."

"Ribbit!" Hearing the woman advising her trainer not to spend money on him, Froakie's little eyes narrowed into an angry look, the kind that couldn't be coaxed!

Chen Ying quickly apologized to the croaking frog; there was no way around it, cuteness was the only justification.

"By the way, Shang Qiu, the exam is in thirty days. Do you have any plans?"

At this point, two blushes appeared on Chen Ying's face.

"Want to come with me to the gym to learn how to train Pokémon?"

Go to a dojo to learn?

Shang Qiu thought about it for a moment and decided to refuse.

Although this is the most common choice before taking the college entrance exam, this path is not suitable for Shang Qiu.

With the [Training Master] effect, Shang Qiu's most suitable path to becoming stronger is to fight in the wild.

There are still too few battles in the dojo.

Thinking of this, Shang Qiu shook his head at Chen Ying, "I plan to train somewhere else, I don't plan to go to the dojo for now."

"Okay—" Chen Ying's voice clearly betrayed a hint of disappointment, but Shang Qiu didn't notice.

A short while later, the bus stopped at the school gate, and Shang Qiu went to the Pokémon Center to register Froakie.

We then went to the Growlithe dog breeding center near our home.

It's noon now, and since my parents are still setting up their stall, I might as well take him to Gyrocopter for training.

Just as Monk Qiu had predicted, Arcanine was getting a beating...

The crape myrtle tree worth 25 yuan in the yard has disappeared, and Chu Mengyao is watching the speed dog practice running with great attention.

Every now and then, it commands Arcanine to use a "Heat Wave" skill.

Seeing Arcanine's miserable state, Gible couldn't wait to jump out of its Poké Ball and onto Arcanine.

"Hoohoo!"

You big dog, you've finally met your match, hahaha!

"Woof!" Arcanine shook its body, trying to shake Gible off, but it was no use.

Gible opened its mouth wide and bit down hard on Arcanine's fur, as steady as an old dog.

Shang Qiu smiled slightly as he watched the two elves playfully fight as soon as they met.

I released the Froggy Frog as well, saying, "Froggy Frog, go play with your friends too."

"This is the Froggy Frog, your new friend!"

When Gible saw Froakie, it jumped off Arcanine, grabbed Froakie, and ran back onto Arcanine.

"Hoohoo!"

Hi newbie, let me show you how to ride the big dog!

The adorable Frog nodded innocently, and the three sprites began to frolic together.

Once the Growlithe was gone, Chu Mengyao's tense expression relaxed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

He exclaimed in admiration, "Shang Qiu, how did you do that? You taught Arcanine the 'Heat Wave' move in just one day!"

is it hard?

Shang Qiu really wants to say: Master math, physics, and chemistry, and you'll be able to go anywhere in the world without fear!

But such words obviously cannot be said in this world.

Shang Qiu pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe your dog was so eager to burn that tree that its potential was unleashed?"

Chu Mengyao rolled her eyes, clearly not believing Shang Qiu's nonsense.

They assumed it was Shang Qiu's secret and didn't pursue the matter further.

Shang Qiu also revealed the main purpose of her visit today, "Sister Mengyao, I'm here today to ask for a few days off."

"The exam is in a month, and I plan to travel around and train some Pokémon, so I won't be coming back for now."

"Just follow my training plan for the next month to train Growlithe."

Chu Mengyao was somewhat reluctant, knowing that her training results were definitely not as good as Shang Qiu's.

However, since Shang Qiu had already said it was to prepare for the college entrance examination, which is a major life event, Chu Mengyao couldn't refuse.

"Alright then, but I still have to pay you your salary this month."
