Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off.

"As you all saw in the live stream, former Evergreen Gym Leader Giovanni is the leader of Team Rocket."

"Because Giovanni has brainwashed and controlled three legendary Pokémon, the League has now issued an arrest warrant for him."

"Anyone who provides clues will be fully protected by the alliance, along with their family, and a generous reward will be given!"

The online and offline audiences were in an uproar. Although Adu had already admitted it in the live stream, everyone was still shocked.

But that wasn't all. A-Du then brought up matters concerning the Quartz Conference.

"Sakaki is incredibly strong, and I, as the acting champion, bear the responsibility for failing to capture him."

"I have submitted my application to resign from the position of acting champion and return to my rightful place as the king of the world."

"Next, the rules of the Quartz Conference will be temporarily changed, and the top eight will all qualify to challenge for the championship!"

"We hope that a new Kanto champion will emerge from the fierce competition and together we can resist a powerful enemy."

Adu flicked his cloak and looked at the many contestants below the stage.

"This rule will continue until a new champion is crowned in the Kanto region!"

"The future champions may be among you. Keep fighting, trainers!"

Amid cheers, the Quartz Convention officially began.

Due to the large number of participants, the teams were divided into several competition zones, with the top four teams from each zone competing against each other. Finally, they all came together to compete for the championship.

Natsuno glanced at the venue below, then looked at Takeran: "Well, do you know what I'm thinking?"

Zhu Lan looked up and exchanged a glance with Xia Ye. The two of them simultaneously pulled out their multi-faceted masks from their pockets.

Natsuno grinned mischievously, feigning indifference: "Well, we're definitely on the same wavelength. Let's go on a date!"

Passerby A and Passerby B went on another date, this time at the Quartz Convention venue.

The area outside the venue was filled with stalls selling all sorts of things, and the two of them were completely overwhelmed by the choices.

"Energy Cubes are on super sale! Made with polyploid tree fruit, this is the latest high-energy formula that will boost your strength dramatically!"

"Produced by the Liuli Group's breeding center, a Beedrill Pokémon egg with full genetics, not 998, only 388! Surpassing Giovanni is not a dream!"

The blonde beauty looked at the street that specialized in Pokémon supplies, smiled at Natsuno, and whispered something in his ear.

"Well, Dr. Natsuno, everyone has benefited from your research."

Xia Ye waved his hands repeatedly, but couldn't suppress the smile on his lips: "It's just a small contribution, nothing to mention."

The vendors were raking in money, their smiles wide and their eyes narrowing as they said, "Thanks to Xia Ye! We're so grateful to him!"

"Yes, yes, because of genetic breeding, there are more starter Pokémon, and there are also more trainers who have taken on the challenge of the tournament midway through this year."

"The key is that polyploid berries and energy cubes are so cheap that even kids can easily buy them to raise Pokémon."

Hearing everyone praise Xia Ye, Zhu Lan felt secretly pleased and couldn't help but go up and help him out.

Then I fell into a dilemma of choice.

Both Natsuno and Cattleya are adept at handling Rosamund Plum's indecisiveness.

The gist of it is: only children make choices, adults want it all!

Carrying a large pile of snacks, the two walked around and saw several areas with long queues.

The two exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Let's go take a look!"

Chapter 340 Kanto Alliance Subsequent Gym Leader Arrangements

Of course I'd join in the fun! I'm here on a date anyway, so what's the harm in doing it all?

In the Pokémon world, battling is a mainstream activity for dating.

After all, everyone believes that even without speaking, battles are the best way to convey a trainer's feelings.

The two walked forward along the long queue, wanting to see what was going on.

Soon, the three arrived at the front, which was the interior building, where many Joeys were maintaining order.

"The gene-editing device is making its public debut! And with a Trainer License, you can use it 10 times for free every month!"

"Yeah, yeah, I've already advanced. Tomorrow we'll compete for a spot in the top 64 of the division. I'm going to change my partner's trait—to be sneaky!"

"I also plan to complete the genetic moves of my partners to increase the variety of tactics!"

"If it weren't for Natsuno's research, who would have thought that genetic moves could be added later and traits could be modified?"

"Yeah, people can criticize Natsuno online, but in real life, who wouldn't want to say to his face: 'Thank you, Natsuno-nii! You're a blessing for trainers!'"

As Natsuno listened, he couldn't help but give these trainers a thumbs up: That's right, that's how battles should be done, the mine setup is just right!

Then, when Blatano comes up with a replacement for the Mega Stone, we'll directly enter an era where everyone uses Mega Evolution.

Natsuno couldn't even imagine how fun it would be; any random bug-catching boy on the roadside could pull out a Mega Beedrill or something.

Moreover, thanks to the dedicated photographer, Giovanni's Beedrill battle against the champion ace was broadcast live the entire time.

This is the most intense episode of Old Deng's bug-catching series, comparable to the legendary bug-catching ancestor in history.

Just as Natsuno Takeran passed by the street selling eggs, she saw that the giant bee eggs were sold out.

It is estimated that Beedrill will become a popular choice in the competitive scene for a long time to come.

Thinking of this, Natsuno began to feel anticipation.

When I have time, I'll go to Galar to conduct joint research on Dynamax and see if we can find a way to expand it to the whole world.

So, the scenario would be: Dynamax versus Mega Evolution, is that a viable strategy?

As for titanium crystallization, according to Natsuno's understanding, the current production of titanium crystal beads and fragments in Padiya is not high, barely enough to meet local demand.

Xia Ye shook his head helplessly. It seemed he couldn't help with this matter and could only wait and see how things developed.

After seeing the effects of the gene-modifying device, Zhu Lan and the other person left and continued their stroll.

After looking around outside, the two finally decided to go into the sub-venue to watch the game.

Following the zone information that Crimson and Green had previously provided, Natsuno first found Crimson's venue.

As luck would have it, the next match in the zone match schedule for arena 7 is Crimson vs. NPC.

Natsuno pulled Takeran to the stands of venue number 7 and managed to find seats.

Then I saw the braised chicken with soy sauce.

Red casually pulled out a level 70 Charizard, his expression serious and focused.

The opponent can only field their starter Pokémon at level 60, while the rest are around level 55, which doesn't even match the true strength of the Gym Leader.

The people next to him whispered, "That kid named Crimson, I've been watching him ever since he stepped out. He's really a monster."

"Both of us started with the same three starter Pokémon, how did this guy manage to raise them to level 70 or higher in such a short time?"

"I don't know, but I think he has the potential to be a champion, it's a pity there are no betting odds."

"No, no, at the fourth venue, there's a guy named Green, whose partners' average level is even higher than Crimson's!"

"I've seen that boy before, but for some reason, I always felt that he wasn't as good as the Crimson One in terms of tactics."

Before he could finish speaking, Crimson had already defeated his opponent in two moves, taking no more than 3 minutes in total, which was extremely efficient.

Natsuno had expected to see some exciting matches, but it turned out to be a stomp on noobs.

He couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't even use any force, and my opponent fell down. This is no fun."

Zhu Lan smiled gently: "This is only the first day. The most frequent time will be when the top four in each division are decided and they compete for the championship in the next two days."

Xia Ye shook his head, pulled the blonde beauty to his feet and left: "I could do it too. Except for Xiao Miao, the others are all at least level 50."

"Let's go, let's go, there's nothing much to see here. I'll take you to see something nice."

Natsuno pulled Takeran straight into the headquarters building, and after removing their disguises, they followed the signs to Adu's office floor.

Apollo and the others were captured before, and Natsuno guessed that the brainwashing should have been lifted in the past few days.

Of course, he wasn't actually there to see Apollo, but rather to find out how Masurge and his men were going to make arrangements.

The positions of Gym Leader—Sakaki, Lt. Surge, Sabrina, and Aki—are now vacant.

Of course, because Sabrina was quite lazy in her role as gym leader, the fighting gym was not shut down and is still thriving.

That means the Kanto League currently has 5 Gym Leaders, but it needs at least three more.

Near A-Du's office, no one was there; however, as I passed the conference room, I seemed to hear the sounds of an argument.

The arguing stopped after Natsuno knocked on the door.

Upon hearing that it was Natsuno and Takeran, the two were invited inside.

The Four Heavenly Kings and Five Heavenly Kings are all inside, and they seem to be discussing the dojo master's affairs.

A-Du's expression was serious: "Massage and A-Ju must atone for the sins of their past lives; there's no need to discuss those two."

"As for Sabrina, she made an important contribution to the operation to wipe out Team Rocket, and that must be taken into account."

The dojo master stood up and declared righteously, "Merit is merit, and crime is crime. The two cannot offset each other. I oppose Sabrina continuing to serve as the dojo master!"

At this moment, Lijia stood up, bowed to everyone, and began to speak: "Please allow me to say a word."

"If merits cannot offset some of the sins, then why would the other side be willing to step forward to help the alliance in similar situations in the future?"

"At least the function can offset part of the sin, and then we can consider other ways of atonement for the rest."

The others nodded in agreement. After listening for a while, Xia Ye decided to say something.

"Everyone can't deny Sabrina's contributions, and she shouldn't be removed from the position of head of the gym, but let me finish."

At this moment, the martial arts gym owner wanted to retort, but Xia Ye gestured with one hand, and the burly man shut up.

"We still need at least three more gym leaders. It's better to use experienced ones than new ones. I think we should just transfer the Psychic Gym to Vermilion City and let Sabrina continue."

"You guys know more about the oversight and other arrangements regarding atonement than I do."

“At the Asakusa Dojo, A-Ju’s daughter, A-Xing, has taken over the entire operation and hasn’t been affected much. We can consider promoting her to a higher position.”

"As for the final Evergreen Gym Leader, the selection will be held after this tournament."

At this point, Xia Ye suddenly chuckled to himself: Qing Lü, don't say that your brother Xia Ye didn't take care of you, the position of the head of the hall is waiting for you!
