Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Latios didn't forget to add a "help" button.

This time.

The bear really got a good beating from the fire monkey, and the old master was beaten to death by a flurry of punches.

It's true that there's a gap in strength.

But it couldn't withstand three consecutive close-quarters attacks.

Bang! !

The blocking bear was knocked away and fell to the ground.

Latios caught the leaping Eevee and together they rushed towards Infernape, tackling the panting Infernape, whose fists were numb, to the ground.

The three little ones' excited laughter echoed throughout the entire grassland.

Xia Yan and Zhi Hui Xing exchanged a glance and smiled with satisfaction.

well.

The three little guys have also gotten on the right track and are slowly becoming capable of standing on their own, just like his other main Pokémon.

Such progress not only made the three little ones happy, but also made Xia Yan, the trainer, happy.

but.

The impromptu command just now, which made Eevee "imitate" the "commands" of the gorilla, seemed to open a new door for Xia Yan.

The things inside that gate are a bit...

dirty.

Chapter 80 Kikuko's Protective Nature

"Bu-i~~"

Eevee hopped and skipped, carrying the strange stone it had taken from Barracuda's arm, and ran to Xia Yan, who was treating Infernape's injuries.

Infernape's fighting style is the most aggressive, but it is also the most dangerous and the most prone to injury.

Therefore, it was the most severely injured.

Xia Yan didn't bring the cherry blossoms; he left them all at the ranch in Suiyi Town to take care of the fruit trees.

It now seems he may need to hire a new "team doctor".

If I find a suitable one, I probably won't let it go.

After treating some of the wounds on Infernape's body, he then looked at the things that Eevee had handed him.

An irregularly shaped stone with a faint iridescent halo is due to the refraction of light through its internal structure, not because the stone itself emits light.

"What is this?" Xia Yan carefully examined the stone in his hand, somewhat puzzled.

It looks a lot like the "Dragon Crystal" he had obtained before.

But it seems to be different.

However, the dragon-type energy it contains is not fake.

"Latios".

Xia Yan summoned Latios.

"Os?"

"Give it a try."

Give that special crystal to Latios.

Latios was delighted when he sensed the energy contained within it.

It noticed the unusual thing on the bear's arm because it could vaguely sense the fluctuations in dragon-type energy.

But how do you use this thing?

Eat it directly?

Latios looked at Xia Yan with a puzzled expression.

Xia Yan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly looked up at the sky, pursed his lips, and said, "Go up and take another look."

Latios was still somewhat puzzled, but upon hearing Xia Yan's words, he did not hesitate.

It folds its wings and soars upwards like a jet engine.

It was still about ten meters away when it was stopped by the strong convection from above.

"Os?"

But Latios noticed that although it was still being blocked, it seemed to be a little bit higher than before.

The increase in height is not obvious, but it is indeed taller.

Seeing this scene, Xia Yan's suspicions were somewhat confirmed.

Looking up at the celestial pillar in the hazy clouds in the distance, I roughly understood the purpose of this crystal.

"No way... we need to collect a lot of these things to get to the Heavenly Pillar, right?"

That's when things get complicated.

They not only had to head towards Tianzhu, but also collect these crystals along the way.

He beckoned Latios down and took the crystal again.

He rubbed his fingertips together lightly, then revealed a helpless smile.

"Is this Rayquaza's test?"

If that's the case, they might have to "bother" some of the elven tribes they encounter along the way.

No one can say for sure which elf will be carrying this crystal.

But if it's a tribal group, the item should be on the tribal leader.

"I still need to verify this further. Let's see if we encounter another powerful group later," Xia Yan thought to himself.

If Xia Yan really needs to collect enough crystals to ascend to the Heavenly Pillar, then there is now a major problem facing him.

He needs to find a team doctor as soon as possible.

Although Latios can also "heal fluctuations," it is Xia Yan's target for training, and it cannot fully take on the role of "team doctor," which would be a waste of both the Latios and the opportunity.

Finding a dedicated "team doctor" who focuses on healing Pokémon is the best way to maximize efficiency.

After all, even if Xia Yan brought a lot of healing potions, they would eventually run out due to frequent battles.

Xia Yan took off his backpack.

I took out all the medicines I had prepared and counted them carefully so that I would have a clear understanding of their contents.

They are arranged according to their different functions such as recovery, treatment, special effects, and status.

Treatment sprays, status sprays, recovery agents, etc.

This time, he...

I brought a total of 15 healing sprays, 5 full-recovery sprays, and 2 full-restoration sprays, all of which are treatment sprays.

There are also status sprays, 10 doses of interpretation spray, 5 doses each of anesthesia relief, sleep relief, burn relief, and frostbite relief spray, and 2 doses of panacea spray.

And also Rejuvenation Potion, 5 Vitality Shards, 3 Vitality Blocks, and 3 Holy Ashes.

Some of these were homemade, while others were purchased from the black market and elven pharmacies.

Among them, the Resurrection Potion is the most expensive, with one Holy Ash worth tens of thousands of Alliance Coins, and the Vitality Block is worth hundreds of thousands, which can be said to be very expensive.

Xia Yan originally thought that carrying so many potions should be enough.

But now it seems that if we really want to collect these crystals and fight against a large number of wild elves or even wild elf groups, these potions will not be enough without a good enough "team doctor".

After using one Good Healing Spray on Infernape, there are 14 left.

He stood up and looked around the grassland.

With the defeat of the Barrier Bear and the Charge Bear, some of the wild Pokémon that had been scattered earlier slowly returned.

"Now the goal is clear: the first goal is to find a 'team doctor' so that we can train these little guys with peace of mind, and then we can consider collecting crystals," Xia Yan muttered to himself.

On the grassland.

Pokémon that can act as "team healers" should have a higher probability of appearing.

Sweep over the charging bear on the ground and the blocking bear.

After a moment's thought, Xia Yan decided to keep some of them.

All of the bears he collected, except for the Block Bear, shared a common characteristic.

That is, their characteristic is "picking up".

This is a feature that doesn't have much use in battles, but is very useful outside of battles.

If Xia Yan can successfully subdue this pack of charging bears, he can send them out.

Pokémon with the "pick-up" ability are sensitive to scattered items, berries, and other objects.

Xia Yan's requirements weren't high; if they could gather some decent tree fruits or materials that could be used as healing potions, that would be enough.

Like when he used to play games, in the early stages when he was poorest, he liked to wander around with five snake bears with the "scavenging" trait.

There are no traces of human activity in the alternate dimension of Rayquaza, and this characteristic should be able to play a significant role.

He acquired a total of eleven "Pick-Up" type Bears, and then he ignored the rest.

"Let's take a short rest and then explore this grassland," Xia Yan said.

The purpose was both to see if any crystals remained and to find the "team doctor".
