Chapter 1229: Ancient Suicune

Jin-Hui Town.

The entrance to Area Zero.

It has become quite lively after several months.

Not only has a solid concrete floor been laid in the long tunnel, but large trucks frequently travel back and forth, transporting all kinds of supplies.

"Laborer" Pokémon like Machamp and Hariyama, wearing safety helmets, come and go. Some hold cement bags in their hands, others carry I-beams on their shoulders, and some push two-wheeled carts, moving forward with a rhythmic grunt.

"What are they preparing to build?"

All Baimu and Miraidon look around curiously, overlooking the billowing dust below, where they can vaguely see groups of people in red uniforms.

—The construction team of Team Magma, currently building a high-speed railway connecting Xionghuang Town and Huang Tie City.

Once built, there will be no need to drive yourself or transfer at Xibo City to go to Xionghuang Town.

However, because most members of Team Magma have been sent to Nickel-Dark Island for island renovation and academy construction, manpower shortages occur from time to time.

All Baimu's Steelix, relying on its excellent digging ability, participated in this project.

The reason why such precious energy and time were spent on this matter has to do with the civil war a few days ago.

The exaggerated growth curve of Milotic previously made Steelix extremely envious.

It was very eager to achieve equivalent progress.

Who would have thought that just as it finally waited for an opportunity, it was defeated by Dragapult's Water Z-Move.

I remember it also lost to Milotic's Water Z-Move last time.

This point made Steelix very hard to accept. Depressed, it didn't even have the spirit for training and ran to ram into mountains to vent.

But its movements were too loud, with continuous rumbling and accompanying earthquakes.

Many wild Pokémon were so disturbed that they couldn't stand it anymore and complained to All Baimu and Aggron through Alolan Meowth. After careful consideration, the latter sent it to join the engineering team to relax.

Stress must be relieved. Pokémon are both strong and fragile. Knowing why Steelix was sad, how could All Baimu turn a blind eye to Steelix's knot?

Of course, every pig has its own way of being caught.

Steelix's personality is relatively straightforward, unlike Dragapult, which is often autistic and always runs away from home. As long as it is given a satisfactory channel for venting, it will be fine.

For example, a hearty big dig.

"Steelix!!"

He shouted loudly.

The neat and uniform chanting of the wild Steelix below stopped. A few seconds later, the silver long dragon broke through the dust, stretched its huge body, and appeared in front of him.

"Hng~!"

The giant Steelix lowered its head toward him.

All Baimu gladly accepted the invitation of his Pokémon, jumped off Miraidon's back, sat down, and patted it lightly: "It's still spacious on your back."

Although it's a bit hard on the butt.

"Hng~"

Steelix responded happily, while Miraidon cast a resentful look at it.

"Agas~!"

Used to be the invincible supercar when accompanying people, and was called the invincible supercar; now that a new dragon has replaced the old one, it complains that its back isn't spacious enough!

Humph!

Human!

Miraidon turned its head away, but hearing the conversation between All Baimu and Steelix moving away, it hurriedly chased after them.

This guy's personality is like both a cat and a dog. It is aloof outside, but lively and running everywhere inside. Perhaps only the "Siamese," a dog among cats, can accurately describe it.

Below, the thick dust gradually dissipated.

Rows of Steelix stood, looking up at the "Queen" who flew down and its trainer, their postures looking like a group of seahorses.

"Hng~"

"Ha-hng!"

The roar of the giant Steelix attracted countless responses, and it showed a satisfied expression.

Compared to Aggron, who likes to occupy the mountain as king and has a strong sense of farming, it is more keen on leading its own kind to dig holes.

After all, since being captured by Pokémon hunters and transported to Orre, it has always lived like this.

"Can't you remember at all?"

All Baimu suddenly lowered his head and asked.

The giant Steelix paused slightly, then shook its head to indicate denial.

They had tried to find the giant Steelix's former tribe, thinking that if they were still willing to recognize this leader, they would migrate to Mount Silver.

Unfortunately, it had long forgotten its past residence.

And without sufficiently detailed intelligence, it is difficult for Hoopa to find the giant Steelix's former partners.

After all, there are too many Onix in the world.

All Baimu was really having a headache.

Fortunately, Steelix itself didn't care much. It had long been accustomed to its new life and new little brothers.

It only occasionally misses the past.

After greeting the project manager, All Baimu took Steelix away, followed by a group of Steelix and Onix.

The giant object passing by made a rumbling sound. Fortunately, there were only plants and no wild Pokémon nearby, so no one would be disturbed.

"So amazing..."

Someone in the construction team looked at the backs of the Steelix leaving and couldn't help but sigh: "This is a Champion!"

"Are all those Steelix and Onix his?"

"I heard he has a mountain of Pokémon!"

"A mountain!? Impossible!"

"How is it impossible? Look at the map, the Mount Silver range marked in the east is his!"

"Hiss!"

The crowd gasped in unison.

The project manager waved his hand: "Alright, alright, since Steelix and the others are off work, let's get off work too! Let's go for a drink together! My treat!"

"Woohoo!"

The crowd's attention shifted, and they cheered one after another.

The weather in early autumn in Orre hasn't cooled down yet. It was baked by the sun all day, and it's so refreshing to have an iced beer after a busy day!

—

"Cheers!"

Clang~

The crisp sound of glass clinking.

All Baimu's family is holding a celebration banquet again, and the Pokémon are happily enjoying dinner.

But the protagonist this time is Mawile. Its fans on Poké-Sound have successfully exceeded one million, and the Aether Foundation has mailed it a plaque.

—Undoubtedly, it was All Baimu's idea. Anyway, he just copied the video websites from his previous life.

Since he wanted to copy, he might as well copy thoroughly.

"Chiduo~"

Mawile cherished the well-crafted plaque. It seemed like a small step, but it was an important step for it to become a big star!

The Shiny Gengar looked envious. It hadn't appeared in a formal battle for too long. Even if it broadcasted games whenever it was free, the rate of gaining fans was far behind Mawile, who had only been on the field for three minutes the other day.

"Gengar~"

It pulled All Baimu's hem with expectant eyes.

Let it go next time~

It can't be that all the good things don't come to it! It's such an obedient ghost~

Porygon2, seeing its flattering appearance, was quite disdainful. It also hadn't fought a formal battle for a while, but it would never—

"Okay."

Huh??

Porygon2 widened its eyes, unable to believe it, and looked at All Baimu, "Pali!?"

Trainer, what did you say?

All Baimu explained: "It insisted."

"Pali!"

You gave it just because it insisted!

Porygon2's mentality collapsed a bit. It couldn't care about any face and learned to imitate it.

All Baimu said: "Don't worry, I have my own plans."

Which Pokémon should appear, and which Pokémon can be put aside for a while, he has his own arrangements.

Porygon2 looked at him suspiciously.

You better be!

"Don't you believe me?" All Baimu glared back.

Porygon2's momentum suddenly became smaller, "Pali..."

Then there's nothing to say...

After solving these two guys, he looked around for Dragapult, "Why is it hiding again."

After finally cultivating confidence through battle, and then raising it to level 90, it actually refused to show its face at home.

Aggron waved its claws, "Guh-roar~"

"What? Uncomfortable from being stared at too much? Who is staring at it for no reason?" All Baimu looked around.

Porygon2 lowered its head, and Gengar whistled with shifty eyes.

All Baimu: "..."

He suddenly grabbed the mouths of the two and shook them up and down, "What do you two want to do?"

"Gengar..."

"Pali..."

The two Pokémon that hadn't reached level 90 laughed dryly.

Of course they were jealous.

Especially Porygon2, who considered itself a senior. It joined the team earlier than the Shiny Milotic, but it was "surpassed" by "juniors" twice in a row.

It's impossible not to feel uncomfortable.

But there's no way. It's an objective fact that the level didn't meet the conditions. As smart as it is, it knows very well that the trainer wouldn't intentionally neglect any Pokémon.

Even Corsola, who is lazy, was given the qualification to try by All Baimu.

Even "threatened" it to use its full strength.

Unfortunately, it didn't come in handy.

Dragapult, who had just won, was aggressive. It first took down Corsola and then Steelix, successfully becoming the sixth Pokémon to reach level 90.

Porygon2 was very jealous, so it paid a little more attention to Dragapult for the past two days.

Gengar was the same.

Therefore, Dragapult started hiding.

It was already sensitive to others' gazes, and as a Ghost-type, it was even more...

In short, it's very difficult to see it during this period of time.

Dragapult knew All Baimu could find it, so it would inevitably hide in a more hidden place.

But you say it's not gregarious, but there are many Pokémon in the team that are more non-gregarious than it.

All Baimu has always believed that close partners are not spoken of, but achieved through actual actions.

Mawile didn't feel that Dragapult's absence, hiding in a corner to enjoy food by itself, was disrespectful to it at all.

Having been lonely, it knows very well that no matter how much you crave some liveliness, if you don't want to join in, you don't want to.

It never forces itself, let alone forces others.

"Chiduo~"

Mawile smiled and smeared cream on All Baimu's face, and the latter also smeared some on it.

The two big cats looked at each other and laughed happily.

Immediately, Mawile called Porygon2 to help them take a photo.

Putting it on the account with the fan plaque would definitely attract another wave of fans!

"Eeya?"

Scream Tail watched from the side, feeling that the atmosphere here was very good, and seeing the cream on All Baimu and Mawile's faces, it happily scooped up a large piece and wanted to join in the fun.

As a result, it was too careless and didn't see the empty bowl in front, stepping on it suddenly—

Zige~

It slipped!

Its body involuntarily tilted downward suddenly, and its thick tail hit All Baimu like a whip!

"Hmm?"

All Baimu leaned back and successfully avoided it.

Who knew that the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, the cake in Scream Tail's hand also flew over. Even though the dodge was agile, it was constrained by being sandwiched between Mawile on the left and the big monster on the right.

There is no room to move!

Bang!

His head first bumped into Aggron's arm, and then his face was smeared with cake.

All Baimu: "..."

"Woo—"

A circle of Pokémon around held back their laughter.

Gengar, covering its mouth, had cheeks bulging faster than an Alolan Raticate.

Scream Tail got up and scratched its head. Seeing All Baimu's embarrassed look, it didn't feel guilty, but was the first to laugh out loud.

"Eeya~ Eeya~"

With a Pokémon starting, other Pokémon burst into laughter.

Hydreigon didn't laugh. It tried its best to lean over to help the trainer lick it off, and glared at the big monster.

"Gah-roar!"

Why are you sitting next to the trainer so hard!

It should be me sitting here!

Aggron couldn't be bothered to pay attention to it, and giggled shamelessly, completely indifferent to the trainer's embarrassment.

"You come with me."

All Baimu got up, forcibly dragged Scream Tail's tentacles, and dragged it into the room to humiliate and beat it up.

Only then did he feel comfortable walking out.

"Eeya..."

The angry Scream Tail had tears remaining in the corners of its eyes, protesting to him, "Eeya! Eeya!"

"If you do something wrong and don't apologize, what's wrong with me hitting you? If you're not convinced, I'll hit you again!"

All Baimu glared at it.

Scream Tail's cheeks bulged high in anger.

Other Pokémon beside it saw this and each showed a helpless expression.

Although the trainer shows different attitudes towards different Pokémon, why is there always a feeling that his IQ is lowered by the other party when facing Scream Tail?

How wonderful!

Amidst the noise, Mawile's celebration banquet ended.

And under All Baimu's order, Gengar and Porygon2 no longer paid intense attention to Dragapult. This guy with advanced social anxiety finally showed its face, not continuing to try to find a place to hide.

—

A few days later.

On a certain day preparing to go to Blueberry Academy.

A phone call came in.

"All Baimu!"

A full-of-energy voice entered his ears. It was All Baimu's "senior," Nemona, the student council president and Champion trainer of Naranja Academy.

She smiled and said: "When are you planning to come back to school?"

"Did I say I was coming back?"

All Baimu was stunned.

He didn't remember having any agreement with Nemona, especially an agreement to return to Naranja Academy.

Nemona was anxious, "Didn't you receive the invitation from Blueberry Academy?"
