I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

Page 232

"Of course it's true, but you have to keep this a secret from your parents. Just tell them you're coming to visit me," Xiao Mao reminded him.

"Okay, I understand." Man Chong nodded and asked, "Then where should I look for you?"

"Just come to the Pokémon Center tomorrow morning," said Shigeru.

0 ..... ...

Originally, Gary didn't want to get involved, but since Manchu hasn't caught any Pokémon yet, Gary will be the one to guide them.

The main reason is that Fully is simple-minded and easily attracts Ralts' attention. Maybe he can meet Ralts, and then Gary's Gardevoir will be settled.

"it is good."

Manch nodded. He decided to fight for his dream. As long as he caught a Pokémon, his parents would definitely not allow him to raise one.

"Xiao Mao, the food is ready, come and eat." At this moment, the food was ready, and Manying came over to announce that dinner was served.

"What are you talking about? Why are you so excited, Man Chong?" Manying noticed that Man Chong's face was flushed, clearly indicating that she was quite excited.

"It's nothing, I just chatted with Brother Shigeru about Pokémon and trainers," Manchong said.

"Then let's go eat." Manying didn't doubt it. She knew that her younger brother was particularly fond of Pokémon and wanted to become a trainer.

Today, a trainer has come to visit, so Manch is naturally very excited.

At the dinner table, everyone chatted and laughed. The meal was mainly to thank Xiao Mao and Xi Jiana. However, as soon as Xi Jiana sat down at the table, she became the one who ate the food, and the job of talking fell to Xiao Mao.

Having lived two lives, Xiao Mao was quite adept at handling such situations. Since it was a family dinner, they naturally chatted about everyday things. Since Xiao Mao was from out of town, they also took the opportunity to talk about the local customs and culture of Greenwood Town. By the end of the meal, both the guests and the host were very happy.

350: Help me fully charge up and capture my first Pokémon.

"Xiao Mao, why did you agree to help Man Chong catch Pokémon?" Xi Jiana asked curiously as soon as they left Man Ying's house.

After spending some time together, Xijiana realized that Xiaoshi was someone who disliked trouble and wouldn't usually cause trouble for no reason.

"It's nothing, I just felt sorry for Manchong and wanted to help him," Xiaomao said.

"Hmph! Then why don't you help me catch the Swablu, but instead help Manch catch the Pokémon?" Higanbana retorted.

When she first came from Meteor Village, Higana wanted to catch a Swaboon, but she didn't see a single Swaboon during her subsequent journey.

"You're a proper trainer. You should know that Pokémon have varying potential. Wild Swabins usually have relatively low potential. If you just catch one randomly, it might not even be able to evolve into Altaria," Gary reminded him.

"Then why is a fully charged '083' enough? Aren't you afraid that if you tame a fully charged one, its potential will be too low?" Xijiana asked.

“Mantong is a new trainer. He will have plenty of time to train Pokémon in the future. The key is that he has money. What do you have?” Gary asked back.

Higana “...!”

Higana was stunned. She had never really thought about this issue. After leaving Meteor Village, Shigeru had told her about the importance of money, but Shigeru always paid for the supplies. She had never really felt the difficulty of being short of money.

“Raising Pokémon costs money. Don’t just think about catching them. After the Hoenn Tournament, I’ll be leaving the Hoenn region. What will you do then?” Gary asked.

Higanbana currently has three Pokémon. Although Shellder doesn't need to eat, and Gu Niu Niu and Baby Tyrannosaurus don't eat much either.

However, the amount of food required for the Armored Dragon and Baby Tyrannosaurus to evolve is quite large each day.

If Higana continues to capture Pokémon, her daily food supply will be a problem. In addition, given Higana's undocumented status, even if she has money, she won't be able to buy some things without proper identification.

“You’re right. After I finish the trial Grandma assigned me, I’ll go back and have a good talk with her,” Xijiana said.

“If you really want to connect with the outside world and protect Meteor Village, I suggest you cooperate with Daigo,” Shigeru said.

“Daigo…! Didn’t you say Daigo wasn’t a good person?” Higana asked, puzzled.

“I was just saying there are bad people in Devon Corporation, but Daigo is still trustworthy. If your grandmother agrees to let Meteor Village communicate with the outside world, Daigo is a good candidate,” Shigeru said.

"Then why didn't you let me stay with Mr. Daigo longer back in the Stone Cave?" Higana complained.

"Anyway, it's up to your grandma to make the decision. You're not even a successor yet, so what's the point of staying any longer? Do you have your eye on Daigo?" Shigeru asked.

Even without the identity of the young master of the Devon Group, Daigo is still an extremely handsome man, a high-quality human male, so it's normal for girls to like him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I like Daigo? He's old enough to be my uncle. I just think Daigo is a very kind person." Higana blushed instantly.

Although Higana is a dark-skinned beauty, you can still see the rosy blush on her cheeks. After all, she grew up in the village and is still very innocent. She will blush if you tease her even slightly.

"Hmph, I'm ignoring you!" Xijiana said reproachfully and immediately ran away.

Watching Higanbana run off into the distance, Gary just shrugged and said helplessly to Eevee beside him, "These little girls nowadays are so easily teased."

"Bue-ee." Eevee made a confused sound. It didn't understand matters between human men and women, but whatever Xiao Shi said must be right.

...!

The next day.

8 am.

Because he had promised to help Mitsui catch Pokémon, Gary waited in the Pokémon Center lobby at 8 o'clock.

It was around 8:15 when Manch arrived.

"Little...Brother Mao, I've arrived." Man Chong ran all the way here, but because he hadn't exercised for a long time, he was exhausted after only running a short distance.

Seeing how exhausted Manchong was, Xiaomao was worried that he might faint at any moment, so he asked, "Do you want to rest for a while before going into the wild?"

“No need, let’s go to the wilderness now.” Man Chong shook his head and refused. He had been waiting for this day for a long time and couldn’t wait a moment longer.

"Okay, can you ride a bike?" Xiao Mao asked.

"meeting."

Manchong nodded. Although he didn't exercise often, he could still ride a bicycle.

Gary gave Higanbana's mountain bike to him and they rode eastward together. From the east, they could reach Route 117, a plain area inhabited by many wild Pokémon.

They stopped at a patch of tall grass, and Shigeru asked, "Mantong, how about we catch some Pokémon here?"

This time, it's to see if we can encounter Ralts, so everything depends on what Manchong decides.

"Okay, no problem." Manchong nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Manchong agreed so readily, Shigeru was a little disappointed, because he wanted Manchong to make the decision himself.

Clearly, Xiao Shi was overthinking it. Man Chong was so obedient to his family, so now that he finally had the chance to get a Pokémon, he would definitely treat it with utmost care and naturally follow Xiao Shi's arrangements.

"Alright, let's search for the elves here."

After putting away the mountain bike, Shigeru solemnly explained, "Let me first talk about the process of catching wild Pokémon. Generally, catching Pokémon involves battling them to deplete their stamina before using a Poké Ball to capture them. Do you understand?"

"Okay, I understand. So, what Pokémon does Brother Mao plan to lend me for battle?" Manchong asked.

"Eevee, you'll help Max Charge catch the Pokémon," said Gary.

I checked on the way here, and the Pokémon here aren't very strong, with levels between 10 and 18. An Eevee 2.9 could easily defeat these Pokémon and protect them from damage.

“Buyi”.

Ibu nodded and walked over to Manch.

Manch looked on in disbelief; he could finally command his Pokémon in battle.

"Ibrahimovic, please give me your guidance. If there's anything wrong with my command, I hope you can forgive me," Manchong said.

"Bue-ee." Eevee didn't care at all. He could easily deal with these little Karami; he could kill them instantly with a ramming attack.

"Alright, you can get started now. If you encounter a Pokémon you like, just catch it," said Gary.

"Okay, Ibrahimovic, let's go."

Manch walked excitedly toward the bushes, with Eevee following beside him, while Gary followed leisurely behind to observe.

351: An Unexpected Visitor with Full Charge

"That's Aoguyan!"

Soon, Manchong found a target: a proud swallow.

【LV18 Proud Swallow♂/Elite】

“Tauren is a very suitable Pokémon for beginners to catch. Do you want to catch it?” Gary asked.

"No, thank you." Manch shook his head and said, "I want to look around some more to see if there are any other Pokémon. If not, then I'll consider catching Taillow."

"Alright, whatever you say." Xiao Mao was quite satisfied with this answer; otherwise, if he had fully charged and captured Taillow, he wouldn't have been able to encounter Ralts.

Manch continued searching for sprites in the grass, and soon encountered a poisonous rose.

【LV15 Poison Rose♀/Dojo】

"Poison Rose, I will tame you," Man Chong declared immediately.

Rose of Poison glanced at Mitsuru and Eevee beside him, then ignored them and continued to fiddle with the flowers in her hands.

"Full Charge, are you sure you want to catch Roselia?" Gary was surprised. Although Roselia was in Full Charge's future Pokémon lineup, what would happen to Ralts if he caught Roselia now?

Especially considering the potential of this Roselia, it's quite good. For a new trainer, 11 Pokémon with gym potential is already a pretty good result.

“Yes, I quite like the poisonous rose,” Man Chong nodded.

"Alright, then go ahead and subdue him." Seeing that Mitsuru was determined, Shigeru didn't try to dissuade him.

"Okay, Eevee, use Tackle," Manch immediately commanded.

“Buyi”.

Eevee yelled, reminding Rose Poison that he was about to attack, and if she wasn't serious, she wouldn't even have a chance to counterattack.

Rose of Poison glanced at Eevee, somewhat impatiently, and waved the rose in her hand. Red and blue petals scattered and transformed into a petal dance as it rushed towards Eevee.

"Watch out, that's a magic leaf, get out of the way quickly!" Manchong recognized the skill and immediately warned him.

"Boohoo!" However, Eevee dashed out in one step, generating an energy vortex around its body, deflecting all the magic leaves, and knocking the poison rose away.

Bang!

Like a kite with a broken string, the poisonous rose flew backward and crashed onto the grass, losing consciousness instantly.

"This...!" Manchong was surprised. He didn't expect Eevee to be so powerful, directly scattering Roselia's Magic Leaves and instantly defeating Roselia.

"Quickly catch it with a Poké Ball," Gary reminded him.

"Oh."
