Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

The strange behavior aroused the curiosity of the four Pokémon. Pidgeot, Blaziken, and Snivy gathered around the mantle rock, whispering among themselves as they watched Tetsuya leaning against it.

Pidgeot: (pouting and pointing at his trainer) What's wrong with him?

Blaziken: (Spreads claws) I don't know, maybe it cramped up again?

Mantle Rock: (Rotating the stone) The boss should be thinking about something.

Pidgeot: (Snorts) I always feel like he's thinking some weird things.

Snivy: What strange thing? What is it?

Blaziken: It's like, binding, tying up, and...

"Boom!"

Tetsuya delivered a chop to Blaziken's shoulder. "You think I don't exist? Don't you know you should be more discreet when talking behind my back? You even came all the way here to say it."

He picked up the vine snake and teased the little guy, saying, "Don't learn bad things from these guys. I don't know who they learned them from."

He then rolled his eyes at the other three elves.

Pidgeot, Blaziken, and Mantle Rock all chuckled inwardly, thinking, "How dare you say something like that?"

"Candy, candy!"

The Snivy, being held, chirped happily. It felt that its trainer and seniors got along very well, and the atmosphere was just like when it was at home, which made it very happy.

Looking at the adorable little guy, Tetsuya temporarily put aside the calculations he had just been working on.

Anyway, there's no rush. Judging from the little guy's abilities, he can't yet make use of the grace of nature as he imagines. Improving his strength is the top priority.

The level 7 isn't the point. This little guy has only recently passed its infancy stage. With its potential at the Heavenly King level and its own nurturing plan, it's more than enough to support its rapid progress.

"Little guy, you're going to be a Grass-type mainstay." Tetsuya patted the head of the Snivy he was holding.

"Candy!"

Snivy declared that it was incredibly powerful and extremely strong!

Tetsuya teased Snivy with a smile. Fortunately, Snivy's personality was also well-suited for battle.

If it were a relatively docile Pokémon like Chikorita, although it doesn't resist battle and also desires to become stronger, it's never as heartfelt as Snivy.

To a large extent, this also determines how powerful an elf can ultimately become.

"Hmph! Half for each of us, half for each of us then! You brat, I'll definitely beat you!"

Ash's shout came from afar.

Tetsuya's eyesight was so good that he could clearly see the Poké Ball they were fighting over being split in two and each of them putting the other half into their pockets.

This must be the bond between them, he sighed.

Professor Oak, who had been pulled out by his grandson Gary, watched the two children bickering with a smile. He then turned his head and saw Tetsuya and the Pokémon beside him.

Professor Oak's eyes lit up, and he walked towards him.

"Tetsuya, are these your Pokémon? They look quite impressive!" Professor Oak said, pulling a magnifying glass from the pocket of his white robe and examining the Pokémon, clicking his tongue in admiration.

"Wow! Blaziken's height is really impressive, and this Mantle Rock looks to have a pretty good body density."

Gary and Ash followed Professor Oak like shadows, observing the Pokémon.

They'd been curious and wanted to come over to see for a while, but they were just arguing.

"Big brother, what kind of spirit is this?!"

Ash tugged at Tetsuya's clothes and curiously pointed at the cool Blaziken and Mantle Rock, asking a question.

Even though his grades weren't great, Ash still recognized Pidgeot, the evolved form of Pidgey, which is found everywhere in the Kanto region.

But the other two are different.

"This is Blaziken, the final evolution of Torchic, it's so cool! And there's Mantle Rock, the evolution of Grubbin, it's also very powerful!"

Xiao Zhi, this is all stuff the teacher covered in class! How come you don't know anything? Were you sleeping in class?

Shigeru was pretending to lecture Satoshi, but Tetsuya found it all quite amusing.

Xiao Zhi blushed. "You brat, what's there to not know? I was just asking!"

Chapter 137 Its Father (Please Subscribe!!!!)

Tetsuya looked at the two bratty kids arguing again with a headache, feeling somewhat troubled. He really didn't know how to deal with them.

Fortunately, after arguing for a while, the two of them focused their attention on his four Pokémon.

"By the way, Professor Oak, do you know what the parent species of Snivy is?"

Tetsuya suddenly remembered his earlier question and asked Professor Oak about it.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Professor Oak asked, puzzled. "This was just teleported from Yew. I didn't ask her if there's anything wrong with the child. She looks perfectly healthy."

Furthermore, it's impossible for Professor Yew and the League to distribute a flawed Pokémon as one of the starter Pokémon, and Professor Yamanashi would also have to check it.

"No, it's just that when I was experimenting with Snivy's skills just now, I found that its genetic skill ratio was a bit strange."

Tetsuya told Professor Oak about Snivy's four inherited abilities.

Of course, the claim about experimental skills is pure nonsense; he figured it out using Zero, but Professor Oak had no idea.

No one saw whether he communicated with the Snivy.

Professor Oak nodded knowingly, pondered for a moment, then clasped one hand together with its palm facing up and the other hand in a fist.

"Ah, I remember now, it's because its father should be Flower Therapy Ring."

Flower Therapy Ring, which spirit is this? Tetsuya searched his knowledge and found that he had never heard of it in either his past or present life.

"Haha, it's normal that you don't know. This Pokémon was discovered in an island region called Alola," Professor Oak said with a smile, looking at Tetsuya's somewhat confused expression.

"The League has not yet finished compiling the information on the Pokémon there, so it is not open to the public yet."

And over there, well, it's a bit dangerous.

Professor Oak's words were somewhat ambiguous, but Tetsuya could roughly understand them.

He nodded slightly and did not press the matter further.

"Flower Healing Ring, currently defined by the Alliance as Grass type, looks like a flower wreath. Its body is more like a greenish-blue fruit, and the surrounding flowers are not its body."

It transfers its bodily fluids to the flowers it carries, which emit a healing fragrance, making it an excellent healing-type spirit.

It perfectly meets the requirements for inheriting the four skills from Snivy.

And judging from this, this sniper must have a high talent for grassy fields.

Professor Oak explained the Flower Therapy Pokémon to Tetsuya and exclaimed in admiration.

Although it's not open yet, it's only a matter of time, and the information about the Pokémon isn't something that needs to be kept particularly secret.

Tetsuya was overjoyed. Wasn't this another piece of good news? It seemed he really had to thank Dr. Yamanashi for his help.

"Does the Flower Therapy Ring belong to the plant egg group or the terrestrial egg group?" Tetsuya asked another question involving genetic terminology.

“Plant Eggs,” Professor Oak answered him directly. “Flower Therapy Rings are closer to the plant category than animals.”

Tetsuya nodded. There are requirements for breeding and breeding Pokémon; it's not that any two Pokémon can breed.

According to research, there are fifteen egg group categories. Each Pokémon can belong to one or two egg groups at the same time. Only Pokémon that belong to any of the same egg group categories can lay eggs.

Generally, the hatched Pokémon are the mother's original form, except for Ditto.

The Monarch Serpent's eggs are found in both plant and terrestrial environments, which is the basis for his question.

As for why plants can lay eggs with animals, don't ask him, he doesn't know either. It's not scientific, but it's quite ingenious.

Professor Oak was constantly recording the physical characteristics and data of Tetsuya's first three Pokémon in his notebook, a subconscious habit of his as a Pokémon professor.

Although he has no shortage of Pokémon data, he still can't help but make a simple note of each one he sees.

Blaziken shifted its body uncomfortably, as it was actually a little uncomfortable, but its trainer's eyes signaled it not to move, so it had no choice but to obey.

Of course, another important reason is that it always feels like there are elves watching it and preventing it from moving.

Professor Oak quickly closed his notebook, and Asahi smiled apologetically, "It doesn't seem quite right. Sorry, I've gotten used to it."

Tetsuya shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, it's my honor."

With a smile, Professor Oak offered his opinion to Tetsuya: "I just observed your three Pokémon. Mantle Rock is the simplest; it just needs to wait to evolve. I don't have any other good suggestions."

At this stage, all it needs to do is wait patiently.

It's best to let it fight occasionally to release some stress, otherwise it will also feel uneasy.

Under the blazing sun, basking in the sunlight, was none other than Pang Yan Guai.

When he said the last sentence, Professor Oak suddenly became very passionate.

The people around him remained calm, and Professor Oak, unfazed, continued the conversation.

"Secondly, there's the Pidgeot. You've bred it very well, including habits like the feathers on its wings and the length of its claws, which show a strong individual style."

Very few people can raise a Pokémon to this level of strength at your age; you're truly remarkable.

Judging by his momentum, he should be close to becoming a near-superstar. Keep up the good work!

Finally, regarding Blaziken, I personally have a small suggestion: you could focus more on developing its Fighting-type abilities.

Although it has excellent fire-type talent and good close-combat ability in terms of physical development, it may be relatively unbalanced in terms of energy.

This can actually be seen from the hair on its legs.

You can appropriately add a certain amount of lotus fruit to the food as a supplement for Fighting-type characters.

Blaziken can learn the Fighting-type move Focus Blast, and you'll be in a lot of trouble if it runs out of energy.

Hearing Professor Oak's reminder, Tetsuya nodded repeatedly.

He naturally paid attention to the questions raised, but raising elves is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it must be done step by step.

Professor Oak simply reminded him to hurry.

As for the part in the middle where Professor Oak suddenly spoke passionately about the senryu of the giant rock monster, he ignored it.

Dr. Oki would give lectures on television every now and then, often using senryu (a type of Japanese poetry) as interlude in his presentations.

He grew up watching Professor Oak's lectures, so naturally he didn't find it strange.

Not to mention Ash and Gary who were right next to him.

Xiao Mao was a little disgusted: "Grandpa, could you please stop talking about senryu?"

"Haha, senryu really captures the essence of Pokémon, it's a must-have for every enthusiast!" Professor Oak laughed heartily.

Shigeru rolled his eyes, feeling a bit bored, and dragged Ash outside.

"Shigeru, what are you doing! I haven't seen enough yet!" Ash struggled, but Shigeru grabbed his collar and he couldn't move.

"What's so interesting about it? We'll have our own elves eventually."

Xiao Mao pursed his lips.

Seeing his grandson full of energy, Professor Oak smiled peacefully, said goodbye to Tetsuya, and returned to his research lab. He had been busy just now, but Gary had pulled him out.

Tetsuya glanced at the sky and the time, and was startled to find that it was already past four o'clock.

Tetsuya quickly recalled the four Pokémon into their Poké Balls and headed towards Professor Yamanashi's lab.

He had to say goodbye and leave, and it was impossible for him to stay overnight at Oki's research institute.

He swiped his ID card to open the door, and Dr. Yamanashi was still working intently.

Tetsuya hesitated for a moment, then left a note on the table and left.

After he left the research institute and Pallet Town, and released Pidgeot in the wild to ride to his next destination, Dr. Yamanashi in the research room rubbed his sore shoulders and stopped working.

Turning my head, I saw the note Tetsuya had left on the table.

"Grandpa Yamanashi, I'm leaving now. Thank you for your help (bows)."

"Remember to rest while working, eat on time, and don't just eat desserts!" — Tetsuya Tamaki

Dr. Yamanashi smiled slightly as he looked at the note and put the candy he had just taken out of his pocket back in.
