Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

and so……

"So, what is today's training schedule~"

Although Manchong himself cannot become a trainer, he is still able to train and cultivate the Dragonite. It’s just that his physical condition cannot support him to carry out activities for a long time.

Therefore, the efficiency of training and cultivation is much lower than that of normal trainers. However, little by little, it adds up to a lot. Manchong knows his innate defects, so he can only make up for them through acquired efforts.

At that moment, after saying hello to his father, Man Chong ran out of the house with Bian Yinlong, and his father naturally agreed.

Looking at Manchong's back, as a father, he could naturally feel clearly the changes that had taken place in this child.

He has become more and more cheerful recently, with more smiles on his face. There is no doubt that getting a partner Pokémon has had an extremely positive effect on him.

At the same time, Manchong's father also noticed Manchong's efforts.

Not being a trainer himself, he certainly didn't know much about his son's talents, but he would occasionally consult the teachers at the local Pokémon Academy, and these teachers were naturally happy to answer his questions.

While communicating with these teachers, more than one teacher expressed regret in front of Man Chong...

This is a very talented child, but unfortunately

……pity!

Manchong did not show much reaction to these cries of pity, but as a father, he could clearly feel his son's loss at that moment.

He could have had more and better things with his talents, but he had to give it all up because it was not his fault.

Is it really impossible to do something?

You are the child's father. Isn't it your duty to help him realize his dreams and be the backbone of his child?

So……

As if he had made up his mind, Manchong's father dialed a number recorded in the navigator.

Soon, the number was successfully dialed. The man calmed down and spoke carefully...

"Excuse me, is this Minister Zaobo? Regarding the cooperation project you mentioned before..."

Over there, a shrill middle-aged male voice came, "Oh, have you finally made up your mind? Haha, don't worry, we will take care of all the funds and expenses for the project. We just need you to cooperate with us and conduct a few experiments that will never be harmful..."

"Really? If this is the case... will there be a chance to cure Manchong's congenital disease?"

"Of course, I can't give you a 100% promise. After all, there is no 'absolute' thing in this world. However, as long as the probability is not 'zero', it is worth trying. Please rest assured that the technology of the Ether Foundation... whether it succeeds or not, at least it will not make the situation worse than it is now~"

Yes, the situation is already so bad. As long as it doesn’t get worse, what does it matter even if we fail in the end?

What's more, what if it succeeds?

"I see. Then, the specific procedure..."

"Haha, then, then, please wait for two days. We will arrange for someone to come over right away. I hope we can... have a pleasant cooperation~"

………………

……

In Wudou Town, Luo Wei hung up the call with Man Chong and chatted with all the relatives and friends around him. Everyone was in good condition, so Luo Wei naturally felt relieved.

After confirming the current situation of relatives and friends, it was naturally Lowe's turn.

"Well, we are going to Kaina City next. There is no gym there, but there is a venue for the Grand Contest. We can go and take a look. Is anyone interested in the Grand Contest?"

Lowe looked around and Kirlia shook her head decisively. She was a reserved and shy person by nature, so naturally she was unwilling to participate in an event like the glamour contest which was relatively too lively.

Masked Cat was much more relaxed than Kirlia. After all, this was also an opportunity to cooperate with Lowe and show their tacit understanding, so she certainly would not miss it.

As for Ibrahimovic, the little guy can't help much in battle right now. Although there is a learning device that can allow him to gain experience, he can't form combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

He has that troublesome trait, and the ordinary ways of evolution are locked. It is estimated that there is only one evolutionary route left.

Naturally, he would like to express himself through other means, so he is also very interested in the gorgeous competition.

"Okay, then Kamen Meow and Eevee will sign up for the competition. Haha, it doesn't matter whether we get a place or not. We can just treat it as a fun experience. Yeah, that's decided~"

Chapter 77: Gorgeous Conference Idol~

After that, Lowe rested in Wudou Town for two days. Since the important business had been done, it was basically just a vacation.

Although that is what they said, because of the vine tree, it seems that everything will inexplicably develop into a situation like the previous frisbee battle.

As a result, Lowe discovered that even though his Pokémon were on vacation, their experience points were actually increasing!

In an instant, I got to know quite a few young trainers in Fighting Town. Based on the local style, most of the trainers in Fighting Town also have a strong martial arts character, so it is easy to develop various friendly matches inexplicably.

Of course, Lowe himself is not too opposed to this situation. After all, he is also a fighting enthusiast and he just regards it as a form of exercise.

In short, after the days that were over, whether it was a vacation or special training, Lowe was ready to set off for a new destination. After saying goodbye to the new friends he made locally, he and old man Hatch were surrounded by people and boarded the speedboat.

"Then, next is Kaina City... Please, Mr. Hatch."

"Well, let's go!"

The old captain is still so steady. After all, he had witnessed strong winds and waves when he was young, so this level of near-shore waterways is a piece of cake for him.

Starting from Waterway 107, along Waterways 108 and 109, all the way to the direction of Kaina City...

As the speedboat continued to approach Waterway 108, Lowe saw that there were obviously more ships on the channel, and even saw a large passenger ship passing by in the distance.

Kaina City is a famous port city in the Hoenn region. Like Shuijing City, it is connected to the seaport and can take a ship to other areas.

Because it is a port city, commercial activities are extremely developed. Kaina City and Shuijing City are both large commercial cities, especially Shuijing City, which is home to the largest department store in the Hoenn region.

In contrast, although Kaina City is slightly inferior to Shuijing City in terms of business, Kaina City has the famous Kusnogi Shipyard and the Marine Science and Technology Museum which is also located here, both of which are well-known places in the Hoenn region.

Because it is a port city, there are naturally a large number of ships coming and going. The large increase in the number of ships in nearby waterways naturally means that we are getting closer to our destination.

"Ok?"

Just as Lowe was leaning on the deck railing and looking at the city outline that was gradually becoming visible in the distance, suddenly his ears caught a bang like a jet starting.

In astonishment, Lowe looked up and saw a black shadow flying over his head at an astonishing speed, heading towards Kaina City.

"……What the hell?"

Lowe was stunned and vaguely felt that it seemed to be some kind of Pokémon, but the speed was too fast, so he couldn't see it clearly.

Not being able to see clearly is not a big problem. After all, if Masked Cat moves at full speed, Lowe will most likely not be able to see clearly at all. It’s even more likely that Masked Cat is not so aggressive now, otherwise she would want to press Lowe on the bed, and Lowe wouldn’t be able to move even a finger.

The power gap between humans and Pokémon is so exaggerated...

But who is the other party if we go to Kaina City at this time?

However, since he dares to be so open and aboveboard, he is most likely not an enemy. After all, if he were an enemy, it would be too conspicuous to be so ostentatious.

However, this cannot be too absolute. After all, the Magma Team had just launched a surprise attack on the mining area in Kanaz City. Who knows what is in the minds of these villains.

However, old Captain Hatch, who was also on board, saw the shadow while steering the ship in the captain's room.

"Oh?"

He seemed to recognize the black shadow and was thoughtful for a moment.

"I see... That's not surprising..."

As they were talking, the speedboat was getting closer and closer to Kaina City, and the pier was just around the corner...

Finally, after several days of trekking, the speedboat successfully docked, and Lowe and old man Hatch got off the boat together. Lowe was planning to go to the Kusnogi Shipyard to hand over the things in his hands, when he saw a commotion at the dock.

"what's the situation?"

It looked like someone was surrounded by a group of people. I thought there was a conflict, but when I listened carefully, it seemed to be excited cheers...

Looking in the direction where the sound came from, I saw an advertising vehicle with a large screen parked there, and on the screen of the advertising vehicle... there appeared the image of a green-haired girl.

The girl was wearing a performance outfit that looked nothing like her everyday attire. She was showing herself under the spotlight of countless lights, and her dance was set to a lively melody, which instantly sparked a key word in Lowe's mind.

"Idol?"

"Well, I guess so. I'm not very familiar with this old man..."

Obviously, old man Hatch on the side didn't know much about this "young people's stuff", but Lowe confirmed at the first time that this girl was undoubtedly an active idol.

As the keywords flashed on the advertising screen, Lowe took out the Navigator and searched on the spot. Sure enough, he quickly found the encyclopedia page corresponding to the girl's name.

"Your name is... Rukia, a current idol of the Grand Tournament, who won the championship three years after her debut and is currently touring the Hoenn region?"

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

After all, in the words of Lowe's biological mother, this child can't walk when he sees Pokémon, and has little interest in anything other than Pokémon. Lowe only knows the name of this idol who seems to be quite famous now.

"...Come to think of it, I've seen it on TV a few times, and my mom seemed to have given it a very high rating."

After all, a thirty-year-old housewife seems to be the most interested in this kind of information, and Lowe's mother also "sharply commented" that she is a very talented and hardworking girl...

...God knows what criteria she uses for evaluation.

Since she is an idol of the Grand Convention, she must have a Pokémon partner. Lukia’s Pokémon partner is Tanabata Bluebird. It is obvious that Lukia’s performance costume was also designed based on Tanabata Bluebird.

As an active idol and the champion of the Gorgeous Conference, his popularity is unquestionable and he is undoubtedly at the peak of his popularity. Therefore, it is not surprising that just an advertising vehicle can attract people to stop and watch.

Lowe took a quick look and then turned his eyes away. Admittedly, the idol was very beautiful... but Lowe was more interested in Pokémon anyway.

"Well, let's go to the shipyard first. Hey... what's wrong with you, Mr. Hatch?"

Just as Lowe was about to go to the shipyard, he noticed that old man Hatch was looking fixedly in one direction, so Lowe quickly followed his gaze.

"Wow, that's high!"

In sight, an extremely tall old man in a navy uniform walked towards Lowe and Old Man Hatch...

Chapter 78: Should I say you are arrogant or honest?

When Lowe looked up, he saw an extremely tall, dignified old man in a navy uniform walking towards him and old man Hatch.

The old man was estimated to be at least 1.9 meters tall. Although his beard was already snow-white, his body was still quite straight. Combined with his navy uniform, it was needless to say that only a professional soldier could maintain such bearing and demeanor at this age.

Lowe quickly found the corresponding name in his mind, and sure enough, old man Hatch greeted the old man in front of him openly.
