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

This time, the red Gyarados, feeling that it had defeated the enemy, couldn't help but roar. Its overconfidence made its attack power even higher, and it directly went after the other Slimy Meow that was left behind by Windy Dog.

This slimy girl was beaten up by Arcanine, Sylveon, Charmeleon, Ravager and Blue Gyarados and was covered with wounds. It was slightly paralyzed and its movements were slow.

Once a move is used, it will be dodged or attacked to the body, and it can only curl up in the snail shell and take the beating.

At this time, an overconfident Gyarados was added, hitting the slime beauty like a ping-pong ball.

"Sticky plums——"

The leader Nian Meir looked at Nian Meir who was being beaten and Nian Meir who was sleeping in a daze. She felt embarrassed and quickly stopped the fight.

"Okay, stop, we won!"

Xu Li, holding the Mook-O-R-Y-O ...

All of a sudden, the Pokémon that were still fighting returned to Xu Li.

Nian Meir, who was being beaten, stuck her head out with a wronged look, looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that there was no danger.

Then he saw Nian Mei'er still sleeping nearby, walked up to her angrily, and hit her on the head with a snail shell, waking her up.

When Nian Meilong woke up and saw his companion, he asked confusedly:

"Shanmei? (Is the battle over?)"

Nian Meir, who was being beaten up, looked at her injuries and couldn't help but smash down with another snail shell.

"Sticky Plum!! (You're done!!)"

"..."

"Sticky plums——"

After someone brought the three Nian Meir back to the tribe, the leader Nian Meir reluctantly acknowledged Xu Li.

Maybe he knew his daughter would have a better future if she went outside.

The leader Nian Meir looked at her daughter, raised her head, and pushed Nian Nian Bao out.

"Sticky plum, sticky plum~~"

Then he took out a stone-like object from the huge snail shell and threw it to Xu Li.

Xu Li quickly caught it and found that it was a container filled with a lot of turbid water.

The leader Nian Meir told Xu Li that this was the metal element needed to allow Nian Nianbao to evolve into Nian Meir, and if it was not enough, he could come back and get more.

It must be used for a long time by the sticky baby, otherwise it will have no shell after evolving.

Then the leader Nian Meir told Xu Li that the elements needed to evolve from Nian Meir into Nian Meilong were not available in the Red Lotus Wetland and needed to be found somewhere else.

Perhaps this is the reason why the leader, Nian Meir, pushed Nian Nian Bao out despite being reluctant.

Xu Li nodded, and the leader Nian Meir then took another careful look at Wind Speed ​​Dog and went back.

Looking at the turbid water in the container in my hand, this is why the slimy dragon grows its shell?

Why does the future Slime Dragon have no shell? Is it because this element is no longer there?

Xu Li also had some guesses about where to find the elements needed for Nian Meir to evolve into Nian Meilong.

Isn't there a dragon head called Nianmei on Tianguan Mountain? It must have the elements that Nianmei needs.

Chapter 51: On the other side of the sea?

Knowing that he could go out, the sticky baby did not feel sad at all about leaving the tribe. He came close to the lily root doll, expressing his curiosity about the outside world.

Xu Li was also preparing to return.

"Buy~"

Seeing Xu Li get up, Fairy Eevee came over, wrapped Xu Li's arm with a ribbon, and jumped happily, saying that it wanted to go with Xu Li.

Although Fairy Eevee would not cling to Xu Li day and night after Xu Li's persuasion, it would still come close to him whenever it had the chance.

But Xu Li didn't hate it either. He felt comfortable being wrapped in the ribbon. This was a sign that Fairy Eevee liked him.

Since its evolution, it has become more and more proactive.

Feeling Xu Li's love for him conveyed by the ribbon, Fairy Eevee's heart was filled with happiness.

Its ribbon can sense the physical condition and emotional fluctuations of the person it touches, so since the first time it wrapped the ribbon around Xu Li and felt Xu Li's affection for it, Sylveon has been obsessed with it.

Next, he felt Xu Li's emotions as if he was addicted.

……

This time, Xu Li planned to take another route back, starting from the peat plateau, passing through the Big Mouth Swamp, and finally returning to the wetland base near Golden Apple Field.

In this way, you may encounter different Pokémon and capture some different Pokémon as information for the Pokémon Encyclopedia.

"Jimmy-Jimmy-"

But when Xu Li walked across the bridge it built again and came to the peat plateau, a panicked cry for help from a baby bear suddenly came from behind.

Hearing the cry, Xu Li quickly turned around, only to find that his baby bear was safely beside him, also puzzled by the sound.

In the distance, cries for help were still heard.

Anyway, go check it out.

Following the sound, Xu Li quickly discovered the splashing water in the middle of the river. The cry for help came from there.

"Xiaoli, please rescue it."

Xu Li took out the blue Gyarados Poké Ball and threw it out.

Gyarados came out and roared subconsciously, stopping the sound of the water splashes, and then flapped its wings even more violently.

"Stop threatening me. I want you to save someone!"

Hearing Xu Li's words, Gyarados rolled into the water, and in a short while, it rescued a baby bear whose color was even darker than Xu Li's baby bear to the shore.

"Jimmy?"

Xu Li's baby bear looked towards this fellow bear curiously.

"Do you know this baby bear?" Xu Li asked his own baby bear.

Xu Li's baby bear shook its head. It had been raised by Yueyue Bear since birth and had basically never seen other baby bears.

Soon, the rescued baby bear slowly woke up, opened its mouth and spit out a lot of river water. It seemed that it had drunk a lot.

Seeing that there was no problem with it, Xu Li did not plan to tame another baby bear and planned to leave.

But Xu Li had just taken a dozen steps when he heard a plop sound from behind, which made Xu Li subconsciously turn around.

The baby bear jumped into the water again and swam vigorously. When it swam to the middle of the river, it choked on the water with a cry.

Xu Li: “…”

I had no choice but to throw Gyarados's Poké Ball again.

Once again, a drowning baby bear woke up on shore.

The waking baby bear looked at Xu Li, its savior who had saved it twice, and a human expression of embarrassment appeared on its face.

"Don't jump into the water again this time," Xu Li said to the baby bear who had drowned twice.

"Jimmy~", the baby bear shook his head, indicating that he would not drown again this time!

Then he jumped, without even noticing Xu Li's gesture to stop him, and jumped into the water again.

The baby bear following behind Xu Li looked at this fellow bear, covering his face with his two paws.

This time, the distance of choking water was shorter than last time.

…Xu Li looked at the bear cub that was rescued for the third time and said speechlessly, “Why did you jump into the water?”

Hearing Xu Li's question, the bear cub, who had drowned three times, suddenly had his eyes sparkle. He pointed to the south and called out, "Jimi~Jimi~"

"You mean you want to cross the ocean? To see what's on the other side? So you're practicing swimming here?" Xu Li was shocked by Baby Bear's idea. Who are you? Baby Bear Yeager?

This is a baby bear with ideals.

"But no matter how good you are at swimming, you can't possibly cross the ocean, right?"

"Jimmy?"

The baby bear shook his head vigorously. It was impossible. He could definitely swim over.

"Think about it, the distance required to cross the ocean is tens of thousands of times that of this river. Tens of thousands of times, you know? You might not even be able to walk across, and swimming alone is impossible."

Listening to Xu Li's words, the baby bear opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word of rebuttal. His whole body seemed to be petrified, as if his ideals were shattered.

"So, you need to think of other ways."

Seeing the baby bear regain hope and look at him with eyes full of hope, Xu Li thought for a moment, threw a branch into the river, and said:

"Look at this branch floating on the water. You know how to make a raft? You can make a raft by trapping a bunch of trees together and floating on the water..."

Xu Li then told Baby Bear what the raft was like, and continued:

"My advice is that you can only achieve this with the help of other Pokémon, so make more Pokémon friends who can cross the ocean."

"Jimmy!!"

The baby bear listened to Xu Li's advice, his eyes shining as if he had already reached the other side of the sea. After thanking Xu Li loudly, he hurriedly looked for water Pokémon to make friends.

Xu Li looked at the baby bear going away, patted his head, and told the baby bear the method himself, not knowing whether it was good or bad.

But it's better than letting the baby bear swim across the sea stupidly.

Eh? Baby Bear, across the sea, to the south…Xu Li suddenly thought.

Could it be the strange moon bear that would later appear in Beishang Township? Or perhaps a descendant that inherited its ideals?

Forget it. Anyway, I can't help you much except giving you some advice on crossing the ocean. Let's just wait and see what happens.

After this little episode, Xu Li also set out on his journey back to the wetland base.

……

Along the way, Xu Li also captured a lot of Pokémon, including Hippopotamus, Frog, and Vilemon.

Wetland base, after two days of walking and stopping, Xu Li finally returned here.

Perhaps because the environment in the Red Lotus Wetlands is too harsh, the number of investigation team members here is far less than that in the Black Diamond Wilderness, with only a few people.

After searching for a while, Xiaozhao still hadn't come back, so Xu Li decided to wait here and go back with Xiaozhao.

Next, Xu Li once again entered retirement life.

Every day, he would either take Gastly, Gloopy and Lilypad to wander around the Golden Fields, tease the troublesome Psyduck, and sweep the area and the surrounding Pokémon, catching a full basket.

Just lying in the tent with Fang and Fairy Eevee, enjoying the day.

Of course, during the training and time spent with Xu Li, Fairy Eevee seemed to have learned magic sparkle and...acting like a spoiled child.

It's that fairy-type move, the coquettish move that can reduce the opponent's attack power.

Perhaps the fairy type is mostly a spiritual feeling. As long as Sylveon gets along with Xu Li, the fairy type of Sylveon really improves every day.

More than ten days passed in a flash, and Xiaozhao finally came back.

Chapter 52: Xiaozhao's New Pokémon

Ten days passed in a flash and Xiaozhao finally came back.

The Xiao Zhao in front of him looked dusty, the scarf covering his hair was covered with mud, and his shoes were tattered.

One can imagine how Xiaozhao spent this period in the Red Lotus Swamp.

But Xiaozhao's eyes were still bright.

"I'm back! Xu Li!!"

Maybe life in the wild is really hard.

Seeing Xu Li, Xiao Zhao couldn't help but pounce on him, and the impact was so great that Xu Li was almost knocked down.

"Alright, alright, seeing how you look, hurry up and tidy it up."

The wetland base still had some logistics. Seeing that Xiaozhao was dirty, Xu Li quickly asked her to change her clothes.
