Chapter 1299: Novice Protection Period About to Expire

Diancie put down the tray it had made on the fly, pulled out another wooden chair, sat down, and nodded in agreement: "It is time to leave. The special training these past few days has brought significant progress to everyone."

Zeraora successfully broke through to the late Professional Tier during its training with Incineroar. Under the influence of the "Cross-Power" based on electrical current propulsion, its speed was something even ordinary Gym-tier Pokémon couldn't reach.

Although still very random, Incineroar could occasionally use the power brought by that mysterious magnetic field. Metagross was only a step away from breaking through to the Gym Tier, other Pokémon had consolidated their foundations, and Leafeon had learned the techniques and precautions for taking care of flowers and plants from Florges.

In these five days in Viridian Forest, everyone had lived a fulfilling life.

At this moment, Su Hao glanced at his phone on a whim. The date, February 10th, caught his eye. This date suddenly made Su Hao sigh with emotion: "Four more days until the day to receive starter Pokémon. It was at that time last year that we met."

It was just that he had used a little bit of cheating.

Su Hao was somewhat glad that he hadn't rashly chosen the Poké Ball in the Dragon-type or Fire-type Pokémon room because of the information he had obtained in advance; otherwise, he wouldn't have met Diancie, who was still a Carbink then.

Diancie was startled, and memories flooded its mind. For it, that day's meeting was like being decorated with candy; the memory was filled with happiness.

Before he knew it, nearly a year had passed, and it had grown from the Carbink that, looking back, it felt was somewhat naive and innocent, into its current self.

"Shall we go home?"

"Let's go home!"

Su Hao and Diancie said in unison.

"February 14th, the day to receive starter Pokémon... Let's go watch after we get home."

Su Hao strolled along the forest path of Viridian Forest. If it were anyone else, they certainly wouldn't be as leisurely as him; it would be good if they weren't terrified by every sound and shadow.

Although they were going home, they couldn't leave immediately. In fact, he had only just brought Leafeon back from the Wonder Garden and had come out for a walk while the Pokémon were exchanging training insights.

With a blade of grass he'd forgotten where he plucked hanging from his mouth, Su Hao thought nonchalantly with his hands behind his head.

Come to think of it, since it was four days until the day to receive starter Pokémon, and his meeting with Diancie was also on that day, didn't that mean his novice trainer protection period would expire in four days?

And it was the kind that couldn't be renewed...

Su Hao suddenly broke into a cold sweat. The basis for his daring to wander everywhere and court death was relying on the fact that he was still in the novice trainer protection period, right?

Thinking that in four days he would no longer be a novice trainer, Su Hao felt his future was pitch black.

By then, his self-introduction in matches would no longer be "Novice Trainer Su Hao," and he wouldn't be able to achieve the feat of becoming a member of the Elite Four during the novice trainer stage.

He could only pitifully hold the "Gym-tier Trainer" certificate he had certified on the way during these five days and call himself a Gym-tier trainer.

Sigh~

The gap of falling from a novice trainer to a Gym-tier trainer is truly uncomfortable~

Reshiram, who had formed a contract with Su Hao and was of one mind with him: "..."

Help, even as the Dragon of Truth, it couldn't hold it together a little bit at this moment.

Unable to listen any longer, Reshiram suddenly spoke in an awkward voice: "Su Hao, how do you plan to deal with those four Genesect? They are still locked in your Ultra Balls, right?"

Genesect?

Su Hao, interrupted in his mental self-indulgence, was stunned. If Reshiram hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten. But he couldn't say that out loud. Su Hao said with a straight face: "Ah... oh, those Genesect. Their injuries are stabilized by the Poké Balls, and I occasionally input some Viridian Force into them. They shouldn't have any issues."

"As for how to arrange them, I plan to enter Articuno's secret realm after going home before letting them out. After all, neither you nor I are sure if these Genesect have any hidden tricks or tracking devices left by the other party."

"As a natural different space, the secret realm can effectively isolate the transmission of signals. We can make plans there based on the state of the Genesect." ===== CHAPTER 1300 =====
