I beg you female trainers to give me money even if you lose!

The Pokémon hiding in the grass along that road have a clear understanding of human groups, making them easy to capture.

"And if you, Yang Xiying, can help the vine monsters of Waterway 21 gain a clear understanding of humans, that would be a great achievement."

"Really? That feels pretty good," Qinglu's words made Yang Xiying think that this was somewhat promising.

"Speaking of which, I should also get to know my newly captured Pokémon better," Yang Xiying thought of Slowpoke and Shellder at this moment.

—It's mealtime now, a perfect opportunity to communicate with them using food…

“In that case, let’s go outside first,” Green said, then looked at Crimson. “By the way, how was your haul?”

"You can't possibly not even be able to catch a Magikarp, can you?" he said, his tone becoming teasing, since Magikarp is the easiest Pokémon to catch.

"Who do you think you are? I did catch the Magikarp, but there was a little accident along the way."

"What accident?"

"It evolved into Gyarados."

"..."

In short, Crimson Green Leaf and Yang Xiying teamed up again and went to Green Leaf's backyard, while Nanami went to prepare lunch.

"Roar——!!!"

Upon arriving at an open area, Red released its newly captured Pokémon, which immediately became extremely agitated!

This is a creature that resembles an oriental dragon, but its structure has many fish-like features, with blue carapaces on its back, neatly arranged together.

This is Gyarados, a ferocious Pokémon whose rage will not subside until it has burned everything in the mountains and fields to the ground.

It was extremely angry. Upon seeing the crimson creature in front of it, it floated over and opened its mouth to bite, but the attack was ineffective!

boom--! ! !

Red reached out and grabbed Gyarados's upper and lower jaws, stopping it in place and preventing it from moving forward any further.

"Gyarados, I know it's unfair to fight you with Pikachu, so let's have a one-on-one battle! Haaah—!!!"

Red grabbed the Gyarados and slammed it to the ground with a dull thud, a perfect throw that left the Gyarados somewhat bewildered.

"But this level is probably not enough, so keep going. No matter how many times you attack, I can handle it."

"Until we can communicate properly," Red said, looking down at her after releasing Gyarados.

"Roar—!!!" At this moment, Gyarados once again climbed up from the sunken ground and attacked Crimson again.

And so, humans and Pokémon began a series of power battles.

"It seems that Gyarados's only offensive moves at level 20 are Bite and Tackle, so we don't need to worry about Red's safety."

Although this scene was somewhat surprising, Qinglu was used to it, while only Yang Xiying looked blank.

Being able to fight this Pokémon on equal terms, there's really no need to worry about its safety...

“Indeed,” Ye Zi nodded subconsciously. She had heard the legends before and thought they were very scary. Could it be because they were of low level?

"—Even a Gyarados like that is no match for me."

“But it feels like it will take a very long time to truly tame a Gyarados,” Qinglv said, changing the subject at this point.

"If you want to raise a Gyarados, it's best to start with a Magikarp. Even if the process is tedious, at least you'll build a basic level of trust."

"Is it because Magikarp's personality changes drastically after it evolves?" Yang Xiying asked subconsciously, referring to when Magikarp evolves into Gyarados.

The brain cell structure will be reorganized, which will lead to Gyarados having an unusually fierce temperament, thus increasing the difficulty of raising it.

Therefore, it is more difficult to train Gyarados directly.

"Yes, and because the ocean covers a large area of ​​the earth, many water-type Pokémon have not been able to communicate."

"—Even Magikarp."

"Magikarp too?" Yang Xiying was a little surprised. He felt that such a weak Pokémon should be easy to fool.

"Yes, because Magikarp has a poor memory. Unless you stay by its side often, that is, you capture and raise it, it will quickly forget you."

"..." Yang Xiying fell silent. He felt that it was becoming difficult for him to communicate with Slowpoke and Shellder.

—Especially the former, it seems to forget things even more easily than Magikarp…

P.S.: Because I didn't sleep well yesterday, I was in a daze all night and fell asleep as soon as I got home from get off work this morning.

So I'm really sorry for the late update.

P.S.: After finishing the Legend of the Rose Garden, I felt like my brain had been transported to another world...

P.S.: This is my new book, please add it to your favorites and recommend it! Thank you everyone!

NO.48 Shellder and Slowpoke merged into one!

“ya to——”

While Red and Gyarados were communicating with each other physically, Yang Xiying also released Slowpoke, which simply lay still in place.

It wasn't until a few seconds later that he had the idea of ​​who he was, where he was, and what he was going to do. Yang Xiying then squatted down to greet the guy.

[Nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Yang Xiying, and I'm human. Do you understand?]

Through the superpower of Azure Flame Blade Demon, Yang Xiying's words were transmitted into the other party's mind, and the other party would respond, albeit a little slowly.

"Human??" Slowpoke tilted its head. This word seemed to be new to it, but it did have an impression of the creature in front of it.

Why would someone use fur that doesn't belong to them to cover their body?

"...It seems you do understand what humans are," Yang Xiying confirmed this response.

It's just using fur that doesn't belong to it to cover its body... Is it asking itself why it wears clothes at all?

...He really didn't know how to respond to such a philosophical question. What's so strange about humans wearing clothes?

Do you think it's not strange to see naked humans? How many... oh, aquatic animals, you've certainly seen a lot.

I suddenly remembered that this kid was born by the water, and in the Pokémon world, there are people soaking in the sea no matter the season.

[Ahem, anyway, since you can talk to me, you understand your current situation, right? Do you feel like you've arrived in a strange place?]

Yang Xiying coughed lightly, deciding to change the subject altogether, as discussing why humans wear clothes felt like a long and drawn-out discussion.

"...So why am I here?"

Slowpoke nodded, but still looked puzzled. In its memory, it seemed to be lying on the beach, and then somehow it ended up on a new beach.

And now, for some reason, a bipedal creature has appeared in front of me, and it's talking to me.

"Because you were fishing with your tail and I put you in this ball," Yang Xiying said, taking out the Poké Ball containing Slowpoke.

Simply put, I found you a new nest, but it's mealtime now, so I'm letting you out.

【But you don’t need to hunt yourself, I’ll take care of filling your stomach.】 Then Yang Xiying took out a few tree fruits and placed them in front of the Slowpoke.

Slowpoke sniffed the fruit, then picked it up and started munching on it, the crisp chewing sounds echoing throughout.

"...Do you understand now? I am someone who can give you food."

Seeing Slowpoke eating with relish, Yang Xiying subconsciously reached out and touched its head; it was very soft and smooth.

【...Is there any more?】 In no time, Slowpoke finished eating the berries that Yang Xiying had released, and then stared at her expectantly.

"Yes, there is, but if you want to eat these every day, you'll have to do me a favor," Yang Xiying said, raising an eyebrow.

—Food is indeed the best way to get this child to follow along with what I'm saying.

"[Help?]" Slowpoke remained stunned, while Yang Xiying continued to ponder the meaning of his words before speaking.

Yes, because I will face various enemy attacks in the future, and I need the strength to fight back.

If you don't resist, it will be difficult for me to provide you with food, or even a nest, and you will go back to your previous life of finding food on your own.

【oh.】

The concept of hunting is almost ingrained in Slowpoke's DNA, because it gets hungry, and when it's hungry, it needs to find food, which is a hassle.

I understand, I'll help if there are enemies, but now that someone is putting food in front of me, then...

[Very good. From now on, just follow my command in any battles.]

Yang Xiying smiled and realized that she and Slowpoke had completed the most basic communication. She would provide food and lodging, and Slowpoke would fight for her.

"I will put the food in your nest, and you can go in and eat now," Yang Xiying said, recalling it with a Poké Ball.

Slowpoke was thus captured, and then Shellder was caught. Since it was put back into its Poké Ball, Yang Xiying also treated its injuries with medicine.

So even after it came out, it still had the energy to attack itself, but under the threat of the Azure Flame Blade Demon's blade, it dared not move.

However, this kid has quite a temper. Even though he was being stared at by the Azure Flame Blade Demon and dared not move, he still dared to glare at them.

—Because they let their prey escape!

Yang Xiying understood that the other side was angry that she had caught Slowpoke, since Shellder really liked Slowpoke's tail.

However, since Slowpoke is her own Pokémon, Yang Xiying couldn't apologize, but she still offered a compromise.

First, we need to confirm whether Shellder will undergo changes in order to absorb nutrients from Slowpoke's tail and reside on it for an extended period of time.

Shellder, do you really like Slowpoke's tail that much?

Why ask such a obvious question? Slowpoke tails are our tribe's favorite food.

We are willing to make any changes to this, to become someone who can monopolize their tails, as long as we can bite that tail—

We'll never have to worry about food in our lives, and... don't you think Slowpoke is really cool?

Yang Xiying: "???"

Looking at the shy expression on the giant tongue clam, Yang Xiying was truly at a loss. Holy crap, what kind of forbidden love is this that transcends species!

You're just wasting your time with those three groups of Slowpokes! And what creature develops feelings for its food?! Are you DIO?!

[Slowpoke, come out here for a second. A beautiful girl here wants to confess her love to you.]

Regardless, Yang Xiying's decision to release Slowpoke confirmed one thing: Shellder can transform as long as it bites Slowpoke's tail.

Yang Xiying lost Slowpoke and Shellder, but gained a Slowbro. She doesn't need Slowpoke to reach level 37 to evolve.

Then, after evolving into Slowpoke, Slowpoke also becomes a bipedal monster with a shell growing on its abdomen.

Because of this, Slowpoke can no longer use its tail to fish and has to rely on Yang Xiying even more, and Shellder has also turned into a conch.

As a return gift for Yang Xiying's help in getting together with Slowpoke, it will help make Slowpoke's brain more agile and better able to participate in battles.

This result... can only be described as cause for celebration. Yang Xiying caught his third Pokémon, Slowbro!

Then it was time for dinner, and Qinglu talked about the tree fruit business at the table, directly buying the tree fruit she needed from Yang Xiying.

He bought two more of the same kind because he wanted to give half to his formidable rival, Crimson, even though he ostensibly lent it out so Crimson could repay it with his future earnings…

But there's something not quite right about the relationship between these two... He even saw Ye Zi secretly wiping away her nosebleed!

—This Pallet Town is truly a place where hidden talents reside!

Anyway, Yang Xiying finally got enough money to buy a bicycle in Hualan City, which is even more profitable than robbing a bank!

This also strengthened Yang Xiying's determination to plant the tree fruit, which is why he spent the afternoon of his second day in the other world with Nanami.

However, with the red, green, and blue leaves around, it wasn't exactly a solitary experience, and what followed had a Harvest Moon feel to it...

P.S.: The plot is starting to speed up...

P.S.: Viviana, you used to be so bold and radiant.

PS: The battle was supposed to end with two 10-pulls, but after hearing Arturo's voice line, I couldn't resist doing a few more pulls.

Then the Radiant Knight arrived. Emmm, I think I was going for Red Tidy around this time last year. So next year it'll be Specter.
