Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game

Taking both factors into account, Xia Chen doesn't have many options left.

Dragonite, Salamence, Garchomp, Hydreigon, Dragapult.

There are only five of them.

…………

After thinking for a while, Xia Chen smiled shyly and said, "If a quasi-god with three forms is willing to come with me, that would be even better."

Long Yue rolled her eyes: "You're dreaming. The dragon race only recognizes the strong, especially the stronger the elf. Those that can evolve to the third stage all have elite-level strength or higher. You..."

Just as she was about to dissuade Xia Chen from this unrealistic idea, she suddenly remembered Xianbu's heroic act half a month ago, and after thinking about it, she decided not to make any definitive statements.

However, she still said, "For your fifth Pokémon, I suggest you start training it from scratch, so it won't be too rebellious."

Xia Chen nodded readily, and after careful consideration, he realized that it was indeed more appropriate to start cultivating the team from scratch.

Long Yue continued, "Since that's your requirement for an ideal Pokémon, let's go straight to the main island without stopping. Almost all pseudo-legendary Pokémon are there. After we bring Dragonair back, I'll help you find a suitable Pokémon."

Xia Chen agreed to the plan. He didn't have any other thoughts at the moment; he would be satisfied as long as he could finally capture a Pokémon he liked.

After finalizing their plans during dinner, Xia Chen and Long Yue set up the tents needed for their nighttime camping trip.

Xia Chen didn't waste it and reused the high-tech tent he had used on his trip back to Carlos. The technology from the Vladali Research Institute surprised Long Yue a little.

Silent all night.

The next morning, after a simple breakfast, the two rode on their Desert Dragonfly and Altaria mounts and set off for the main island.

They arrived at the large island in the southwest, which was not too far from the main island in the southeast.

Compared to yesterday's long trek, it was completely unchallenging.

Along the way, they encountered many dragon-type spirits that looked quite ferocious, but they didn't pay much attention to Xia Chen and Long Yue, the two humans.

He glanced at it silently and then flew away.

After flying for about an hour and crossing a stretch of sea, the main island came into view before Xia Chen.

Having agreed to pick up Long Yue's Haklong first, the two did not linger but flew straight to the center of Dragon Island.

That place is the residence of the royal family of Dragon Island.

…………

The main island has a very diverse topography. As Xia Chen flew over, he discovered forests, plains, hills, and valleys, all suitable for various kinds of elves to inhabit.

At the very center lies a beautiful place nestled against the mountains and beside the water.

What caught Xia Chen's attention was that the closer they flew to the center, the more excited the desert dragonfly beneath them became, as if something was attracting it.

This phenomenon reminded Xia Chen of the Aroma City he had visited before, which ultimately proved that the divine tree was indeed related to Xerneas.

Perhaps this is why Dragon Island is Dragon Island?

Xia Chen guessed in his heart, but this time he couldn't guess any useful information.

After all, there are too many legendary dragon-type Pokémon in this world, and on this Dragon Island, which is not even under the jurisdiction of any region, it is even more difficult to guess anything.

After thinking about it, Xia Chen decided to give up.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. I just need to safely capture the fifth Pokémon and that's it.

Upon arriving at the royal family's territory, things were no longer as unobstructed as before.

Hovering in the sky, a Salamence, seemingly on guard duty, cautiously approached, as if questioning something.

Long Yue replied solemnly, "I'm here to take Princess Hakuryu back. This is Milotic's trainer, the father of Hakuryu's child. Please inform him of this."

Xia Chen twitched his lips. This way of introducing himself... was truly unique.

However, the Flying Dragon clearly knew about this. He gave Xia Chen a deep look, then turned and flew down.

Xia Chen frowned slightly. He was certain that the look in Bao Feilong's eyes just now contained no goodwill whatsoever.

Tsk, are live-in sons-in-law really that unpopular?

…………

Not long after, the Salamence that had been there earlier flew back. It nodded at Long Yue and let out a low growl.

Long Yue understood what he meant and nodded her thanks: "I understand, thank you for leading the way."

Xia Chen watched in amazement, thinking that this must be a special ability of the Dragon Taming Clan.

He used to feel envious and jealous when he saw this situation, but now, with his superpowers growing day by day, he says he is not envious at all.

My sprites will get me anything that others have!

Following the lead of the Flying Dragon, Xia Chen and Long Yue made several turns and soon arrived at the core area of ​​Dragon Island.

Why was he able to make this judgment? Because what he saw before him were Basilisk, Ankylosaurus, Gible, Garchomp, Dratini, Dragonair...

Without exception, they were all quasi-god spirits that were extremely precious in the outside world!

Looking at his darlings staring at him with wide, curious eyes, Xia Chen couldn't help but swallow hard.

It's important to know that pseudo-legendary Pokémon are so rare that each pseudo-legendary Pokémon egg can fetch tens of millions of dollars at auction.

Here, however, they are as common as caterpillars.

If outsiders saw this, they'd probably go crazy...

Wait a minute, that gible just smiled at me. Does it have feelings for me?

But that mini dragon seemed to wink at me too, so what should I choose?

I'm so conflicted...

Xia Chen was momentarily stunned, unable to stop chuckling to himself, his hands unconsciously stroking the desert dragonfly.

The desert dragonfly beneath him felt a chill run down his spine.

This kid must have some serious illness!

…………

"Woo~"

Xia Chen and Long Yue were following the Flying Dragon through the swarm of pseudo-legendary creatures when suddenly, a long, drawn-out cry came from afar.

The voice sounded a bit silly, like the sound of a Dragonite.

A smile unconsciously appeared on Long Yue's face; she seemed both surprised and delighted by the voice.

Then the owner of that voice knew all too well that it was definitely her Dragonair, no, it should have evolved into Dragonite!

Sure enough, less than two seconds later, a large green sprite flew straight towards Xia Chen and Long Yue's location from the direction of the lake.

It's a Shiny Dragonite!

Quasi-gods are rare enough, let alone the one-in-a-million Odd-color quasi-gods.

So this green, chubby creature evolved from the pink and tender Hakkarosaurus.

Watching the Dragonite cuddling and excitedly rubbing against its trainer, Xia Chen was pondering another question.

Milotic...can he accept that the person he loves so much has become like this?

To be honest, Shiny Dragonite in the real world isn't that bad-looking.

Her green color wasn't the grime green from the game, but rather a jade-like green, resembling a large piece of jade, noble and unique.

Xia Chen thought that compared to the usual orange and fat Dragonite, the jade green one was quite nice, and even looked rather... slender against the cool color scheme.

However, this is Xia Chen's aesthetic.

Whether Milotic can accept it is another matter entirely...

…………

After being affectionate with Long Yue for a while, Dragonite finally noticed Xia Chen's presence. Of course, she remembered the trainer who was the father of her child.

His arrival means that Milotic must have arrived as well.

Dragonite eagerly approached Xia Chen and let out a light cry.

Xia Chen knew that she was asking him to release Milotic.

After a moment's hesitation, Xia Chen took out Milotic's Poké Ball.

Well, we'll see each other sooner or later anyway; Milotic will have to face this issue sooner or later...

With that thought in mind, he threw the diving ball.

The figure that Dragonite had been longing for had finally appeared.

Then, Xia Chen witnessed a traditional craft on his own Milotic's face: Sichuan opera face-changing.

"Phew~"

This is Minas's pleasant mental state when he first released the ball.

He guessed that Xia Chen had let him out now because he had seen his girlfriend.

"Fuwoo?"

This is Milotic's reaction of being "amazed by a dragon" upon first seeing Dragonite.

Who is this bright green Dragonite? Isn't it there to meet my girlfriend?

"Fuwoo!"

This is Milotic's incredulous reaction when he recognized his girlfriend's former self in Dragonite's affectionate eyes.

At this moment, he finally understood that the Dragonite in front of him was the evolved form of his pink and tender girlfriend!

…………

Dragonite noticed Milotic's reaction and the change in its eyes within just a few seconds.

A feeling of grievance suddenly welled up in her heart. She had been looking forward to the reunion for so long, but she never expected to get such a result.

Although the changes in myself before and after evolution are quite significant, it shouldn't warrant this kind of reaction, right?

Recalling the astonishment and disbelief he saw in Milotic's eyes, Dragonite felt even more aggrieved.

She felt that her more than six months of perseverance and waiting had ultimately been in vain.
