Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Kadabra used its psychic powers to envelop Xia Yan and several Pokémon, including Jirachi's Sleeping Cocoon, keeping them away from the ground.

Rumbling--

A crack appeared in the ground, and the Dragon Head Grub, who had lost his fighting ability, and Clay, who was also unconscious, were shaken out of the crack.

Ryuichi, a member of the "Meteor Dwellers," arrived just in time.

As soon as Xia Yan discovered that Clay had arrived, he notified Long Yi.

It's not that I expect him to arrive in time, I just want him to know the location.

Unexpectedly, thanks to his familiarity with the terrain inside Meteor Falls, Long Yi actually made it to the destination at the last minute.

The Earthquake move delivered the final blow to Clay and the already weakened Excadrill.

This completely eliminated any possibility of his escape.

Immediately afterwards, Ryuichi, with his cape fluttering, appeared in Xia Yan's sight riding a Desert Dragonfly.

"Mr. Yan Xia, am I not late?"

On the other side, Nidoking finally fell to Absol's attack.

"No, just right."

As Xia Yan spoke, he walked toward Absolu.

As he crouched down and gently stroked its wounds, he reached out and touched Nidoking, who was lying on the ground.

A perfectly round, dark red gem appeared in his palm.

He flipped his hand and put it away.

The Jewel of Life, obtained.

Chapter 76: How about a Dragon-type Pokémon as a thank-you gift?

Long Yi came in.

Then they saw a mess on the ground and Xia Yan comforting Absol.

His eyes narrowed.

He asked incredulously, "Mr. Yan Xia, did you...do all of this?"

Especially when he saw the Absol, he felt a strong sense of threat, and the desert dragonfly beneath him chirped softly, expressing the pressure it felt from the Absol.

To know.

When this hunter first entered their "Meteor Village," he stole a group of dragon-type Pokémon cubs and even fought against several experienced dragon trainers in their "Meteor Village."

Although he ultimately fled in disarray, Long Yi learned from the dragon tamers that the hunter was no ordinary person.

Even though he hasn't fully recovered yet, Long Yi believes he shouldn't be a match for him.

After several clashes with his Flygon and holding his own against the Beedrill, Ryuichi assumed that Xia Yan's strength was about the same as his own.

But after seeing this Absolu, my understanding was completely changed.

'So Mr. Yan really did hold back last time, and even helped us catch this despicable thief...' Long Yi thought to himself, and his attitude towards Xia Yan improved even more.

He jumped off the back of the desert dragonfly, landed in front of Xia Yan, placed his right hand on his left chest, and bowed slightly.

"No, it's all thanks to it," Xia Yan said truthfully, patting Absol on the back.

After this battle, Absol's approval of Xia Yan increased.

But when faced with the unfamiliar Long Yi, he reverted to the cold demeanor he had when he first met Xia Yan.

That's the same.

'Isn't this Absol Mr. Yanxia's Pokémon?'

Seeing that Absol treated him and Xia Yan completely differently, Ryuichi became even more certain.

"Mr. Yan Xia is just being modest. The elders said that the stronger a being is, the more humble they are. This Absol doesn't seem any weaker than the elders' dragons. Indeed, at their level, humility becomes instinctive."

Long Yi still remembered several of the more amiable elders, who always had a smiling and kind appearance.

Whenever he asked them how strong they were, he would always reply, "They've only lived a few years longer than you. Long Yi, your talent is limitless; the future is yours."

But every time he fought them, they defeated him with just a couple of casual moves.

Therefore, true masters are all humble.

Thinking of this, Long Yi felt a sense of admiration for Xia Yan.

After all, the elders were indeed much older than him, while Xia Yan only looked a year or two older.

"We still want to thank Mr. Yan Xia for his help in catching this thief," Long Yi said again.

Xia Yan waved his hand.

"Catching him isn't the key; the key is that group of 'little dragons'."

As he spoke, he examined the items Clay was carrying.

not much.

Everything Clay originally carried was used to restore the elves.

After battling the Meteor Dwellers, fighting Absol, and dealing with the wild Pokémon in Meteor Falls, our supplies are almost depleted.

If there were anything useful left, they wouldn't have brought Nidoking in this state and injured Pokémon into battle.

As for money, there must be a lot.

However, most of the money was in bank accounts, which Xia Yan obviously couldn't access.

After rummaging around for a while, besides a few Pokémon, the most valuable items were the Life Orb he had pried off the severely injured and unconscious Nidoking, and the only other item he had taken from him: a sharp tooth of unknown origin.

As for what Long Yi mentioned, the stolen dragon-type Pokémon cub and some other valuable items have not been found either.

I can't help but want to complain about this result.

But thinking back on it, I realized I hadn't really done much; it was Absol who was always the one charging into battle, so I felt relieved.

He glanced at the teeth in his palm, pursed his lips, and quietly put them away.

“Mr. Yan Xia, you don’t need to worry about him. While I was looking for him, I found the group of ‘Dragon Boys’ and the lost items. He’s hiding in a corner of Meteor Falls, but he doesn’t know how familiar we are with Meteor Falls. How could he possibly hide it from me?”

Long Yi grinned and said, rubbing his nose with his fingers, giving off a "you should praise me" look.

Xia Yan: "..."

Looking at this tall man, who was over 1.9 meters tall, with an expression that seemed to be asking for praise, he didn't know what to say.

I was originally thinking of whether I could sneak a few dragon-type Pokémon babies.

Little did they know that Long Yi had already taken it away.

Ah, such a simple and honest people...

I couldn't help but glance at Clay on the ground, unsure whether I should criticize his behavior of not carrying valuables with him.

Otherwise, he would have embezzled at least a few dragon-type Pokémon.

That's a dragon-type spirit!

That guy doesn't even have many purebred dragon-type Pokémon!

He forced a smile and patted Ryuichi on the shoulder, "Well done..."

"That's what I should do."

Xia Yan: "..."

He took a deep breath and silently put away all of Clay's elves.

Stop loss.

"By the way, Mr. Yan Xia, please make sure you come back to 'Meteor Village' with me."

Xia Yan pondered.

"Please! If the elders in the clan knew about the help you've given, they would definitely thank you profusely," Long Yi said sincerely.

grateful?

How about I give you a Dragon-type Pokémon as a thank you gift?

Xia Yan touched his nose.

“I really want to see the unique scenery of ‘Meteor Village’.”

After cleaning up the traces on the ground and gathering all the spoils, the three Pokémon came to Xia Yan's side.

Upon hearing his words, the three elves reacted in different ways.

"Chakoi!" Pokkigu was the most excited; it also wanted to see what "Meteor Village" looked like.

Yongjila took a step back imperceptibly.

The bee remained silent.

"That's great!" Long Yi also seemed very happy.

Although "Meteor Village" is rarely open to outsiders, Xia Yan did provide considerable help, and Ryuichi thought it was fine to do so.

"wait for me."

Xia Yan walked over to Absol and whispered a few words to him.

Absol hesitated for a moment, glancing at him, then at Jirachi's Sleeping Cocoon, and finally at Ryuichi.

He nodded.

Seeing that Absol didn't refuse, Xia Yan finally smiled.

Since it was someone else's territory, Long Yi thought it was fine, but Xia Yan dared not entrust his safety to someone else's "it's fine".

He trusted elves more than humans.

Through this battle, a basic "revolutionary" friendship has been established between Absol and Absol.

With it around, even if it doesn't guarantee your safety, at least you can foresee some things. Combined with Kadabra's teleportation, your safety can be considered guaranteed.
