Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Chapter Sixty-Three: Dragon's Saliva

"Dragon Boy?"

This word piqued Xia Yan's interest.

The "Dragon Boy" mentioned by the "Meteor Dwellers" must be a real dragon-type spirit, right?

It's not one of those pseudo-dragon spirits that has "dragon" in its name but doesn't actually have the dragon attribute.

"Oh, that's what you outsiders call Dragon-type Pokémon," Ryuichi explained.

Xia Yan nodded to indicate that he understood.

"So, that person is still inside Meteor Falls?"

"I'm not too sure, but that person hasn't been away from 'Meteor Village' for long, so they should still be here..." Ryuichi wasn't entirely sure either.

“I see…” Xia Yan pondered for a moment.

He then added, "I'll probably be staying at Meteor Falls for a while longer, so I can try to help you look for it."

Long Yi's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"As you can see, I'm training my Pokémon. Meteor Falls will be the place I choose to train during this time. Maybe I'll get lucky and run into the person you mentioned."

“Sir, you are definitely a good person!” Long Yi said sincerely.

Good person...

Xia Yan had lost count of how many people had said he was a good person.

As he spoke, even Xia Yan himself began to have doubts.

Am I really a good person?

As soon as the thought came to mind, Xia Yan lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly.

joke.

He put away his smile, looked up and said seriously, "I was just helping out."

Long Yi suddenly slapped his forehead, "Oh right, sir, I still don't know your name."

"...Yan Xia."

“Yan Xia…” Long Yi repeated, head bowed, then continued, “Okay, Mr. Yan Xia, Meteor Falls is huge, and I really can’t find it all by myself. Let’s split up. If you find it, it’s best not to go alone. That person… is very strong!”

After saying that, he adjusted his cloak and prepared to leave.

"and many more."

Xia Yan called out to him, and under his slightly puzzled gaze, he shrugged helplessly and said, "How can I contact you?"

"Oh, sorry, I forgot. Let's exchange contact information." With that, Long Yi took out his phone.

Xia Yan was taken aback. "A cell phone?"

Long Yi chuckled and said, "This is what the clan elders brought back each time they went out to buy supplies. They said it was a communication tool for the outside world. I figured it out after a long time."

Right.

The "Meteor People" have simply gone into hiding, but that doesn't mean they've completely cut off contact with the outside world.

It is said that some of the older members of the "Meteor Dwellers" can observe the trails left by Dragon-type Pokémon flying in the sky outside the waterfall, and then deploy their Pokémon at the intersections of these trails to achieve aerial combat.

If we say that the Pokémon world's alliances and society today represent a highly developed technological civilization, then everything here is done in a scientific way.

So the "Meteor People" are a group of people who always use ancient methods, and they have taken these ancient methods to the extreme.

It's somewhat like Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine in medicine; they are different products and results of two different development directions.

The knowledge and experience accumulated by the "Meteor People" over thousands of years is an invaluable treasure.

However, it seems that the "Meteor Dwellers" are now also trying to communicate with the outside world.

Therefore, it's not too surprising that Long Yi would own a cell phone.

Afterwards, Xia Yan and Long Yi exchanged contact information.

As one of the important attractions in the Hoenn region, Meteor Falls has been equipped with a large number of signal lines laid by the League. Even inside Meteor Falls, cell phones can still maintain a strong signal.

"Then, Mr. Yan Xia, I'll leave it to you. I'll go and look around somewhere else."

"it is good."

"By the way, my Flygon clashed with your Pokémon, Mr. Yan Xia, and a battle broke out. Both Pokémon were injured. To express my apology, please accept this 'Dragon's Saliva' as my compensation. It can heal Pokémon's injuries, and it has good effects whether taken internally or applied externally."

As he spoke, he took out a small bag wrapped in a small cloth from his pocket.

As I took the slightly heavy package, a faint fragrance wafted from it.

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Yan Xia. Remember not to fight him alone; that person is very strong!"

Watching Long Yi gradually disappear into the distance, she looked down at the small bag in her hand.

"Is this one of the intellectual products of an ancient people?"

Slowly open the small package, inside are clumps of white powdery particles, it's impossible to tell what they're made of.

However, as the packet was opened, the previous light fragrance became even stronger, and Beedrill, Pokémon, and Casey were all involuntarily drawn to the aroma.

Pokkigu curiously reached out her little hand to touch it, but Xia Yan slapped it away.

She immediately showed a wronged expression.

“It’s just right.”

But it smells so good.

Judging from the elf's reaction, whatever the effect of the "Dragon Saliva" given by Long Yi, it should at least not have any negative effects.

Xia Yan carefully took out one, thought for a moment, and then broke it in half.

Beedrill.

Without him even saying anything, the steady Beedrill couldn't wait to swallow it whole.

Even Beedrill is like this, so you can imagine how much Togekiss must be drooling.

then.

That was a scene that witnessed a miracle.

Beedrill had survived a Dragontail attack from Flygon and burns from being grazed by meteorites scattered by a meteor shower, yet it had completely recovered in less than thirty seconds.

The effect is many times better than the wound spray sold by the Alliance.

It's even comparable to the most expensive "cures" in the Alliance Store.

This is only half a kernel.

"Hiss!"

Furthermore, Beedrill also sensed that it was not only its body that was recovering, but also the energy and stamina it had consumed along the way.

Looking at the nine remaining pills in the bag and the half pill in his palm, Xia Yan couldn't help but sigh, "The accumulation over thousands of years, in some ways, is truly no less impressive than the development of technology..."

Finally, Xia Yan couldn't resist Pokkigu's pitiful appearance, so he divided the remaining half in two and gave one half to Pokkigu and the other to Casey.

After eating, the two elves quickly recovered to their best condition.

"I wonder what materials it's made of to make it work so well..."

Ambergris... normally it's dragon's saliva, right...?

Xia Yan's expression became slightly strange.

Put away the cloth bag.

The remaining nine "Dragon's Saliva" should not be used lightly anymore. Their effects might produce unexpected results at certain crucial moments.

It could also become a life-saving drug.

However, Xia Yan noticed that after consuming the "Dragon's Saliva," Casey's superpower fluctuations became visibly more pronounced.

After a quick rest, he ignored Pokkigu's persistent gaze.

The main objectives remain unchanged.

Train the elf.

In addition to training the Pokémon, I now have two secondary objectives.

The first task is to find the source of the mysterious sound, and the second is to see if they can find the "thief" that Long Yi mentioned.

They stole quite a few "Dragon Babies," and these Dragon-type Pokémon are very valuable.

However, Xia Yan was not blinded by the allure of "Dragon Boy." Long Yi repeatedly reminded him that the other party was very strong, which was clearly not just empty talk.

The prerequisite for obtaining all good things is ensuring one's own safety.

Xia Yan will never cross this bottom line.

Even the best things need to be enjoyed alive.

Chapter Sixty-Four: Am I that strong?

After parting ways with Ryuichi, Natsuhiko continued training with his Pokémon at Meteor Falls.

After battling Flygon, Beedrill could clearly feel a significant improvement in its familiarity with changes in its body and strength.

The number and frequency of battles they participated in gradually increased.

Partly because their bodies became more active, and partly because the wild Pokémon within Meteor Falls became stronger as they ventured deeper.

Even when Togekiss and Abra work together, some Pokémon still try to ambush their trainer, Xia Yan.

Therefore, Beedrill had to increase its attacks.

In the midst of intense battles, the day passed quickly.

They didn't see the thief Ryuichi mentioned, nor could they find the source of the voices that were occasionally transmitted to the elves.

However, he was not in a hurry.
