Elf: Start with small diamonds, then mutate into Diancie!

Su Hao looked at Daigo, who seemed hesitant to speak, with some confusion, and asked, "Mr. Daigo, is there something you want to say to me?"

Daigo rested his chin on his hand and thought for a moment. As if he had finally made up his mind, he looked at Su Hao and said solemnly, "Could you let me see all your Pokémon?"

"what?"

------------

Mewtwo.

Chapter 365 The World of the Rich

Thanks to the healing power of the Everlasting Rock, Diancie and the others, though still somewhat listless, are much better than before when they were severely injured.

Daigo observed their condition one by one, and when it was Diancie's turn, a special light flashed in Daigo's eyes.

The intense gaze made Diancie shrink uncomfortably behind Su Hao. Although it understood that Daigo had saved them at the last minute, Diancie still felt uneasy under that gaze...

As if admiring something incredibly precious, Daigo's face flushed, and his breathing became rapid.

Su Hao understood that this was Daigo's fanatical rock-loving nature taking effect. No rock-loving fan wouldn't be moved by the existence of Diancie, a Rock/Fairy type Mythical Pokémon.

However, Daigo's refined manners prevented him from making any impolite moves, if one ignored his burning gaze.

After a moment, Daigo coughed lightly twice as if nothing had happened, and said in a gentle manner, "I can feel that there is a deep bond between you and your Pokémon."

Steven's gaze swept over Eevee, Riolu, Brave Eagle, Dragapult, Milotic, Incineroar, and Diancie, lingering a little longer on Diancie.

There are seven Pokémon in total, and each one is very well trained.

His combat prowess is impeccably strong. Based on the attack light he saw twice at the foot of the mountain, he was even able to withstand Lance's Elite Four-level Gengar and defeat the Gym Leader-level Crobat.

Perhaps, he is the person I have been searching for, the one I can entrust my life to.

With this in mind, Daigo's idea became completely certain.

He suddenly asked seriously, "Su Hao, what do you think of Pokémon?"

"?" Su Hao didn't understand why Daigo asked that, but he still blurted out the answer, "Partners, friends, family, beings who grow stronger together."

"Is that so?" Daigo chuckled, then suddenly pulled a shrunken white commemorative ball from his waist. "I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"???"

Su Hao was a little out of sync with Daigo and stammered, "You said..."

“I want to entrust this child to you. This is one of the reasons I came to the Kanto region: to find a reliable trainer for it.”

Daigo had investigated many people before, and financial resources were not a problem, nor was his lack of knowledge about training methods; all of this was just a matter of lifting a finger for him.

He has only one requirement: excellent character and potential.

Unfortunately, even though he thought his requirements were low enough, he still couldn't find a suitable candidate.

This person's attitude towards Pokémon is too indifferent; that person's trainer talent isn't strong enough, which could easily bury the child's potential...

Ultimately, Daigo saw in Su Hao the qualities that met all his requirements.

Steven tapped the commemorative ball, and as a red light appeared and then disappeared, a silver-white Pokémon appeared in Su Hao's field of vision.

It seemed to know that Daigo had found a suitable partner for him, and it floated in the air circling around Su Hao, as if observing him.

Su Hao stared in disbelief at Daigo, then at the gleaming iron dumbbell circling around him.

who am I?

where am I?

What am I supposed to do?

Just a moment ago, he thought the shiny Metagross was incredibly cool, but now Steven suddenly wants to entrust this shiny Iron Dumbbell to him?

Is the heir of Devon Corporation really this arrogant? He just gave away a pseudo-legendary character like Flash without any warning.

"Donbo~"

A cold, mechanical voice rang out, reminding Su Hao that the system's voice was similar.

Whether it was the affinity of Su Hao's Tokiwa Power that was passively at work, Iron Dumbbell observed him for a while and then couldn't wait to stick to Su Hao's arm.

The silvery-white metal body of the iron dumbbell pressed against Su Hao's arm, and a cold sensation came from the point of contact, as if touching a piece of steel.

Su Hao tried to touch the iron dumbbell with his hand. Not only did the other party not refuse, but its red eyes curved into crescents, showing that it liked being touched very much.

"It seems my decision was right; this child has never been this close to me before."

Daigo had his right hand on his waist, his face beaming with a warm smile that seemed to indicate he had found the right person to entrust his mission to. Su Hao could probably sell any random snapshot of him to his fans in the Hoenn region for a high price.

"Just like the Metagross before, this kid was ostracized by the hundreds of Iron Dumbbells at home because of its different color. That's why I had the idea of ​​finding it a reliable trainer."

Daigo closed his eyes slightly, speaking softly, without a trace of awareness that he was flaunting his wealth.

Su Hao: "............"

Listen to this, is Daigo-san even speaking human language?

Do you keep hundreds of iron dumbbells at home?

This isn't just being extravagant; is your quasi-god doing wholesale?

Su Hao's forehead creased with annoyance. He always thought Versailles was someone else's fault, but today he was being completely misunderstood as being Versailles himself.

However, the statement still needs to be made.

Su Hao solemnly promised Daigo, "I understand, I will treat it well."

"Then, this commemorative ball is yours. It's a specially made commemorative ball from Devon Corporation, with effects almost identical to the deluxe ball."

Daigo, wearing a ring, held a pure white commemorative ball with a bright red opening in his right hand and handed it to Su Hao.

Su Hao accepted the invitation solemnly, saying that if he were in the game world, he would definitely hear this line.

[You have received a Pokémon as a gift from Steven, the former Hoenn Champion: Beldum!]

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

After entrusting Iron Dumbbell to Su Hao, Daigo said that he had completed what he needed to do in the Kanto region. He left behind a notebook titled "[Daigo teaches you how to raise Iron Dumbbell to Metagross from scratch]" and then rode Skarmory into the sky.

Iron Dumbbell showed no hesitation or caution in his new environment; instead, he greeted Diancie and the others in a very friendly manner.

Milotic closed its eyes and remained coiled on the spot, showing little interest in the newcomer. Its external injuries from the previous battle had healed, but its energy and stamina were not at their peak and needed to recover quickly.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger looked at the Iron Dumbbell with considerable vigilance. Was the final evolution of this little guy the giant silver flying saucer that had just appeared?

The full-force attacks unleashed by him and Su Hao, exhausting all their energy, posed no threat to the Gengar, but the silver flying saucer completely crushed the Gengar!

The second-best position in his team is coveted by Milotic and threatened by the prodigy Riolu.

Even the big black bird is hard to beat when it flies, and the little dragon is about to undergo its final evolution. But then, a promising silver dumbbell appears.

It's like being besieged on all sides!

Rayquaza, Deoxys.

Chapter 366 Cerulean City

【Chalco blue is a mysterious and unpredictable shade of aquamarine】

Cerulean City is a small seaside city located in the northern part of the Kanto region.

Cerulean City is bordered by the estuary to the north, which leads directly to the sea. To the south lies Kyogre City, the most prosperous city in the Kanto region, and to the west is Mount Tsukimi.

Su Hao will be staying here for about a week. The Kanto Alliance has arranged a beach resort hotel for him, which is probably quite expensive.

Unfortunately, Su Hao is not in the mood to appreciate these beautiful views or even take a leisurely vacation.

Yesterday I experienced my first brush with death, and no one can pretend that nothing happened.

Even Diancie and the others, though they didn't say it, must have been holding a grudge in their hearts.

Sooner or later, they will go to the Rockets' headquarters to get their revenge.

Unfortunately, Ash has already started his journey in the Hoenn region, and the Viridian City Gym Leader has long been replaced by Agatha Christie, one of the Elite Four.

The location of Team Rocket's headquarters in the anime world remains a mystery, and Su Hao could only remind Adu to pay attention to Silver Corporation.

After all, he didn't know whether Silver Company had been taken over by the Rockets or was in cahoots with them.

As the city home to the Cerulean Gym, one of the eight major gyms in the Kanto region, Cerulean City naturally has a related industry chain supporting it with a constant stream of trainers.

Su Hao declined countless challenges from bug-catching boys and shorts-wearing kids along the way, found a training gym with decent facilities and reputation, booked a limited-time private room, and released the Iron Dumbbell into the commemorative ball.

"Dunbo".

An inorganic mechanical sound rang out, and a very stylish silver-white iron dumbbell floated in the air.

Having studied Daigo's training tips, Su Hao can now more intuitively see the extraordinary nature of Iron Dumbbell.

Unlike ordinary iron dumbbells, its silvery-white metallic body is not dull; it even reflects light and shines brightly.

Daigo probably usually feeds it top-tier rare ores and high-level energy blocks.

Now, let's take a look at how well Iron Dumbbell has mastered the moves and how proficient he is.

Su Hao's gaze swept over the iron dumbbell, and its data panel immediately appeared in his eyes.

Pokémon: Beldum

Attributes: [Steel + Superpowers]

Gender: [None]

Characteristic: [Eternally Pure Body]

Level: [Mid-Beginner Level]

Item: [Magnet]

Techniques: [Slam, Iron Wall, Mind Hammer, Iron Head]

Daigo-san, I'm really crying my eyes out.

As expected of the incredibly wealthy Daigo Dewen, he even gave it the expensive skill machine that the Iron Dumbbell is one of only three to learn.
