I, Zhulan's childhood sweetheart, was trapped in Xicui.

As soon as Shuanglianwan appeared, the moment he heard Xu Li's order, he pulled out the scallop shells with both hands and rushed towards Longlongshi.

The investigator panicked when he saw this Pokémon that was not in his plan, and quickly commanded: "Stomp it hard, stop it!"

Rumbling Stone stomped on the ground suddenly, and a vibration wave was transmitted from under its feet, trying to stop the Double-Edged Maru from moving forward.

But Shuangbianmaru jumped high flexibly, avoiding the vibration wave, and got close to the Rumble Stone. The two scallops gathered water streams and hit the Rumble Stone together, causing the water streams to burst.

Rumble Stone was directly knocked away, and the shell blade with four times the damage killed Rumble Stone instantly, making it lose its combat ability.

The investigator was a little incredulous, but still sent out his second Pokémon, a pink shell-less sea hare.

It has a body that looks like a snail without a shell, its surface is covered with a layer of mucus, and there is a pink crown on its head that looks like coral, which it is prepared to use to deal with Xu Li's Growlithe.

Perhaps the water-based moves of Slugless Sea Slug are a bit troublesome for Growlithe, but it is not yet the water-ground attribute of its evolution, which is not enough to make Growlithe fail.

What's more, he is facing the more flexible Double-Edged Maru, which has no weakness to water.

The extremely low speed of the shellless sea hare is like a disabled person without legs in front of the Double-Edged Maru. It can only allow the Double-Edged Maru to attack it everywhere and barely resist with the waves of water.

But the water waves didn't hurt even when they hit Shuangbianmaru.

Soon, he fell under the continuous slashing moves of Shuangbianmaru.

The investigator covered his head, unable to accept the fact. It was supposed to be a battle for their investigation team to save face, but now it was even more embarrassing.

"Shu San, hold your head up! Don't show your cowardice in front of everyone. You're bringing down the prestige of the investigation team!"

At this time, the boss Xishi on the side spoke up and asked Shusan to return to the investigation team, and then said to Xu Li:

"You didn't use your full strength, did you? Do you want another fight? This time it's a real fight!"

"A real battle?"

"It's a 2v2 battle, humans and Pokémon fighting together. This is the way we, who are active in the dangerous wild, fight."

"So? You can use tools, right?"

"Of course, there are no rules. I'll do it until my opponent loses his ability to fight."

"Come on then."

Xu Li agreed to fight. Fighting without discrimination? This was exactly what Xu Li was best at.

A figure walked out from behind Xishi. It was a masked man. He bowed to Xu Li seriously and said:

"Investigation team, Ninja, Shi Chong, please give us your guidance."

Then Shi Chong threw out two Poké Balls and a smoke bomb. The smoke dissipated first, and then the Poké Balls fell to the ground.

Xu Li only saw the purple corner of the Pokémon released by Shi Chong, and then the sphere stirring at high speed in the smoke.

Without thinking much, Xu Li jumped to the side, and saw a black ball rushing out from the smoke, slamming into the land where Xu Li had just been, causing the soil to splash everywhere.

Shi Chong released the smoke bomb, hoping to use the smoke to prevent Xu Li from determining what Pokémon it was, so that he could launch a preemptive attack.

But this was useless to Xu Li. With a scan of the system, Shi Chong's dream demon and poisonous rose were exposed.

Xu Li released Yaya and the little flame monkey and rushed directly towards Shi Chong.

Neither of Shi Chong's two Pokémon are very good at close combat, no wonder they need sleight of hand.

"Malicious pursuit, flaming wheel"

Yaya was covered in black light and quickly found the dream demon in the smoke. The little flame monkey turned into a flame wheel and rolled towards the direction Xu Li pointed, which was the direction where the poisonous rose was.

"Dream demon, get out of the way!"

Shi Chong didn't understand why Xu Li determined the position of his Pokémon so quickly and used a dark-type move to restrain the Dream Demon. He could only ask the Dream Demon to avoid this dark-type move.

Because the Dream Demon's racial defense and health are simply not enough to withstand several evil moves, once it is attacked, it is difficult to avoid serious injuries.

But just as the Dream Demon was about to float away to another place to avoid it, Yaya's malicious pursuit hit him. Then, one after another, the malicious pursuits continued to attack the Dream Demon.

The malicious pursuit move will be more powerful if the enemy has already been damaged.

The continuous malicious pursuits continued to increase in power, and soon, the dream demon lost its ability to fight at the hands of Yaya.

Shi Chong could only watch helplessly as the dream demon was attacked one after another but was powerless to do anything.

at the same time.

Flame Monkey's Flame Wheel rolled directly towards Poison Rose because the direction was pointed by Xu Li. At a long distance, Flame Monkey could not see Poison Rose and it was difficult for the Flame Wheel to hit it.

This is not important. After closing the distance, the little flame monkey has already seen the poison rose. At this time, the flowers on the poison rose's arms are sending out sharp thorns towards the flame wheel, trying to prevent the flame wheel from getting closer.

The sharp tips of the thorns glow purple, and are poisonous.

The little flame monkey's flame wheel accelerated further and passed by the poison rose.

After avoiding the poison needles and disbanding the Flame Wheel, the little flame monkey jumped out, kicked the wall behind the poison rose, jumped high, turned around and used the Flame Fist to hit the poison rose.

This used the technique of rapid return to nimbly avoid the attack of the poisonous rose and organize a counterattack.

Poison Rose didn't expect that the little flame monkey could be like this. She didn't react in time at all and was hit in the face by the flaming fist and fell to the ground.

Just like the Dream Demon, the Poison Rose fell to the ground without any ability to resist. She was pinned to the ground by the little Flame Monkey and the Flame Fist smashed down on her until the Poison Rose lost her ability to fight.

Similarly, Shi Chong could only watch Du Qiangwei being pinned to the ground and attacked, unable to do anything.

Because Xu Li also had his eyes on him.

As early as the battle began, Xu Li's Eye of Miracle had locked onto Shi Chong, so no matter where Shi Chong moved, he would always be highlighted in Xu Li's eyes.

When Shi Chong's dream demon Poison Rose was approached by Xu Li's Fangya Little Flame Monkey, Xu Li had already approached Shi Chong.

He was suddenly hit in the face by a sticky ball, and then tripped and pinned to the ground by Xu Li.

At first, Shi Chong wanted to resist, but after being taught a lesson by Xu Li, he could only hope that his dream demon Poison Rose would defeat Xu Li's Pokémon to help him defeat Xu Li.

But in the end, Shi Chong could only watch helplessly as the dream demon Poison Rose was beaten by Xu Li's Pokémon under Xu Li's control, and he was powerless to do anything.

"Stop! We admit defeat, let Shi Chong go!"

Xishi couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and shouted.

Crush, all-round crush.

Shi Chong had no ability to resist Xu Li.

Even though it knew that Shi Chong had many skills that he had not used, Shi Chong was doomed to lose after Xu Li somehow saw through Shi Chong's Pokémon and took action after being the last to strike.

"Okay, we recognize your strength, Xu Li, right?"

Xishi nodded to Xu Li without saying anything more. He asked someone to tidy up Shi Chong and his Pokémon, then left with his investigation team members.

Even though he was unwilling to accept it, it was true that Xu Li was superior, and Xi Shi had no other choice but to do so. He couldn't just go out on his own and bully the weaker with his level, right? So many Galaxy Team members were watching.

It would be better to maintain your composure and admit it cleanly, which could also save some face for the investigation team.

Thinking of the internal situation of the investigation team, Xishi also sighed. He was one of the people who wanted to change it, but he was powerless and didn't know where to put his power.

After the investigation team left, the discussions of the other spectators around them no longer paid attention to the members of the investigation team, and the volume of the discussion gradually became louder.

Some of them made eye contact with Xu Li and nodded to him in a friendly manner.

"This is the new person Dr. Laben found to help with the illustrated guide investigation. I met him for the first time today. He's quite capable."

"yes……"

It seems that within the Galaxy team, except for the direct conflict with the investigation team, everyone else has a good impression of Xu Li and does not have that kind of xenophobic mentality.

However, the Galaxy Team was originally formed by people from various regions. They gathered here to investigate and develop the Xicui area, and eventually created Zhuqing Village, the largest human gathering place in the Xicui area. It is impossible for them to have xenophobic thoughts.

Xu Li speculated that it was Zhu Qingcun, Team Kong and Team Pearl who contributed to the subsequent prosperity of the Sinnoh region.

"Hahaha, Xu Li, your talent really makes me feel brilliant. Even Shi Chong was quickly defeated by you."

After the investigation team left, Dr. Laben and the girl holding Mumuxiao came up with a hearty laugh and praised Xu Li openly:

Xu Li waved his hand, smiled modestly, then picked up Yaya who came to him and pinched her.

“It’s all thanks to Yaya and the others’ trust.”

"Tooth~"

Dr. Laben watched the intimate interaction between Xu Li and Yaya.

I finally realized that Xu Li was different from other people who used Pokémon to fight. In their traditional concept, Pokémon needed to be tamed and forced to fight for you, so they were generally called Pokémon tamers.

Xu Li really treats Pokémon as friends and makes Pokémon fight for him sincerely.

Dr. Laben felt that perhaps this way of getting along was what they needed to learn, and he suddenly had an idea.

He pulled the girl holding Mumuxiao in front of Xu Li and said to him:

"She's Xiao Zhao. Perhaps you've heard of her. She's the one who appeared out of nowhere on the Starting Coast a few days ago. She lost her memory and was taken in by our Galaxy Team."

"I discovered that Xiaozhao, like you, Xu Li, has unparalleled talent."

"I have a request. Please be Xiaozhao's master!"

"Teacher...master?"

Xu Li pointed at himself, feeling somewhat puzzled. He didn't look much older than the girl in front of him.

"Yes, let Xiaozhao and Xuli learn how to get along with Pokémon, how to train, and how to survive. Please!"

"Okay... okay."

"Let Xiaozhao live in your house, Xu Li. This way, he can experience Xu Li's interactions with Pokémon up close."

Chapter 29: Pokémon Trainer

Xu Li agreed to Dr. Laben to teach Xiaozhao, and is now on his way back with Xiaozhao.

Xu Li confirmed that Xiao Zhao did not get Arceus's phone and was confused.

Furthermore, up to now, the space-time rift on Tianguan Mountain has not appeared, and the "kings" in various places have not yet gone berserk, which means that the plot of Xi Cui has not yet begun.

Has anything changed because of my arrival?

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore. Xu Li turned to look at Xiaozhao.

Looking at Xiaozhao's face, which was extremely similar to Xiaoguang, the one Xu Li played with before traveling through time, he was simply the adult version of Xiaoguang.

The Owl in Xiaozhao's arms was looking at Xu Li with fear. It clearly remembered that day when it was playing with the investigation team and Xu Li took it away with a Poké Ball.

Mumuxiao still doesn’t dare to recall the feeling of his mind going blank while flying.

When it thought about the future contact with Xu Li, the two green leaves on Mumuxiao's chest trembled even more. At that moment, it turned its head 180 degrees and buried its face in Xiaozhao's arms.

Trying to refuse to accept reality in this way.

Although Xu Li was a little surprised by Mumuxiao's reaction, he didn't care. It seemed that he had left a deep impression on it when he captured it, so he continued to chat with Xiaozhao.

"You really don't have any memory at all?"

"Yes, Xu Li... Master, I just feel like I don't belong here."

As she said this, Xiao Zhao looked at Mu Mu Xiao who was buried in her arms, and said to Xu Li doubtfully:

"People here seem... very afraid of Pokémon, but I don't think Pokémon are... scary creatures at all."

"So, seeing the relationship between you and Pokémon, Master Xu Li, I feel like we come from the same place."

Xu Li thought of Zhu Lan and that home, and sighed: "Yes, we all come from the same place."

"In that place, people don't reject Pokémon, and they support each other and live together with them."

"There are also people called Pokémon Trainers. They train themselves and their Pokémon, aiming for higher levels and constantly battling Pokémon."

"Through battles, they get to know the Pokémon they fight alongside and the Pokémon of their opponents better."

"So, just hold on to this feeling. Pokémon are definitely not scary creatures. With their help, perhaps we can break through here."

"Xiao Zhao, after hearing what I said, do you remember anything?"

Xiaozhao pursed her lips but still shook her head.

However, she looked at the Mumuxiao in her arms.

"Pokémon... Trainer?"
