Chapter 767 It’s Not up to You!

Desert area.

Pokémon Center.

As the only oasis and supply point within dozens of kilometers around, a large number of trainers and Pokémon take a break here.

It looked like it was crowded inside and out, with trainers, Pokémon, and nurses pushing stretchers coming and going in an endless stream.

In sharp contrast to the deserted atmosphere last year.

It can be seen that in just a few days, the desert area has gathered outsiders that had not been seen in the past few months. Not to mention that the trainers at the Pokémon Center are only a few, and more have rushed into the desert to start looking.

"The allure of Legendary Pokémon is indeed extraordinary."

Kashiwagi is wearing a sunscreen veil, and under his crotch is a suspended motorcycle brought by Gengar's fourth-dimensional belly.

He only has a motorcycle driver's license from the Ourei area. If he is caught by Miss Junsha while driving on the main road in the Fengyuan area, the car will be impounded and fined. It is a trivial matter, but it will be a big deal if it is published in the newspaper.

In desert areas, you don’t have to worry so much.

And this time to capture Regirock, he planned to operate secretly to avoid being exposed as much as possible, so the Pokémon he had used before must not be sent out again.

Regis Chiru and Regice will be the first choices next.

Thanks to the two being obedient enough, it is not difficult to command. It is not easy to fight against powerful trainers such as the Four Heavenly Kings and Champions. It is enough to conquer Reggie Locke.

Handing the motorcycle to Gengar, Kashiwagi tightened his veil and walked towards the Pokémon Center.

After traveling for so long, it’s time to find a place to rest.

Again.

Younger trainers often like to share information with each other, especially on important matters such as discovering Reggie Locke's traces.

Even if you can't conquer it with your own strength, it's common to show it off to other friends.

Maybe we can get some information and narrow the scope of exploration.

Regis Chiru and Regice were mainly asked to help find them, but there was no way to point out a clear direction directly. When they first arrived in the desert, Kashiwagi asked them to guide them, one pointing east and the other west.

Looking in completely different directions gave him a headache.

Reggie Rock split?

Obviously this is not the case. The closer the distance between the three of them is, the more sensitive the response will be. On the contrary, if the distance is too far, the reaction will be hazy.

Therefore, it is best to perform a carpet search to exclude various areas——

But this will waste at least several months!

By then, the Pokémon hunters would probably have used black technology such as "fishing nets" to catch Reggie Rock, and it would be his turn.

Close to an oasis.

The cool breeze blowing from the automatic door from time to time gave him a brief moment of comfort.

Kashiwagi glanced at the trainers and Pokémon outside the gate, thinking that anyone would dare to catch the legendary Pokémon.

What do you think your Pokémon like Snake Bear and Carapace are here for?

At least it finally evolves again!

I hope there are stronger Pokémon in the Poke Ball, and they are not so cannon fodder. With this kind of Pokémon, I am afraid that even Regirock's destructive rays cannot be avoided.

He looked away and walked into the cool lobby of the Pokémon Center.

You can see a long queue in front of the reception counter, Ms. Joy is busy receiving Poké Balls, and the Happy Egg nurses are running around pushing stretchers.

Every sofa and booth was full of people waiting for their Pokémon to finish their physical examination. If there was no place to sit, they would lean against the wall. It was quite relaxing to stay with Pokémon.

Busy and noisy.

It’s not much different from a Pokémon Center in a big city.

Kashiwagi bought a cold drink from the vending machine, raised his veil, drank and wandered around, eavesdropping on the chats of the trainers who gathered together——

Nothing was found.

Although they didn't have high expectations at first, most people didn't even wander around the desert for long, or they couldn't hold on or their Pokémon couldn't hold on, so they hurried back.

Some trainers can't even defeat wild Pokémon.

For example, the Makoshita Rikishi that the happy egg nurse just pushed over was lying on a stretcher covered with triangular spikes, and it kept screaming "Hey, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo".

The trainer followed with a frown on his face.

I heard that he was hit by a wild Mengge cactus with its spiked arms.

All the cannon fodder!

Aren’t there a few heavyweight trainers?

"Gulu~"

After drinking the cold drink, Kashiwagi realized that he was almost rested, so he walked out of the Pokémon Center to avoid wasting time.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the south side of the desert, lowered his head and asked Porygon II: "South side... It would be great if you could narrow down the search range. Is there no news on the Internet?"

"No. 』

Porygon II continuously searches various forums and blogs to filter out a large amount of spam.

Under the sand dunes far away from the Pokémon Center, Gengar took out the hoverbike, and Regis Chiru and Regice were called out again to guide the way.

"Dududu——"

"Chi chi chi——"

This time, the directions they pointed were not as extreme as last time. One pointed to the guide and the other pointed to the southeast.

Kashiwagi stood next to Regice. The air-conditioning of -200 degrees below zero not only did not freeze him instantly, but made him feel like he was in an air-conditioning outlet.

The Gengar in the shadow also quietly popped up and took a few licks.

hiss!

It made my whole body tremble with pleasure.

Pokémon in the anime are very magical creatures.

As long as it recognizes you, regardless of whether you are its trainer or not, their characteristics and special powers will no longer harm you.

For example, the flames on the back of the little fire horse and the flaming horse, the rough skin of the megalodon shark and the biting land shark, the magma surface of the lava bug and the lava snail, and the minus two hundred-degree freezing air on the surface of Regice's body.

"Go south!"

Kashiwagi decided to trust Regis Chiru. Even though its body was roasted by the sun, it was still the most "stable" one.

Next, I hope to conquer Regirock and count on its help.

Putting away the two sacred pillars, he sat on the hoverbike and galloped towards the south.

——

Deep in the desert.

The scorching sun hung high above our heads, and the rolling heat wave seemed to dry everything.

The Mengge cacti stood quietly in place, keeping still to avoid being robbed of moisture by the sun.

They are actually nocturnal Pokémon, and a large part of the reason for their daytime activities is that they were first attacked by trainers and Pokémon who wanted to conquer them.

Of course there are no absolutes.

Sometimes they will chase someone in groups during the day, like playing three-two-one wooden figures, until the other party falls to the ground exhausted.

Suddenly.

There was an engine roar in the distance.

A touch of gold appeared in the dark eyes of the Mengge Cactus who were disturbed from sleep, and then dimmed quickly.

There are many outsiders in the desert today.

They have taken action several times and do not want to cause trouble again.

only……

The sound of the approaching engine suddenly became quieter, and a curious voice came over.

"Huh?"

Kashiwagi glanced at the Mengge cactus, which was about four or five meters away from him, and then at the half shoe exposed in the sand in front of it, as well as the protruding long strip of rock.

People and Pokémon?

Attacked by a wild Mengsong cactus?

Go up and confirm.

If that's the case, it can be saved. It's generally right to release goodwill in mainstream areas, not to mention that he saw so many "cannon fodder" in the Pokémon Center just now.

Maybe he was also a little kid who wanted to pursue his dream but made a mistake.

He said to the wild Mengsong cactus:

"Brother! Let's talk about letting me save you?"

Pokémon in mainstream areas can hurt people, and the probability of killing them is really low, but God knows how long that person has been buried in the sand.

"Nah!"

The wild Mengge cactus turned its head, its golden pupils a little cold.

The wild Mengge cacti all around were "alive", and they pulled their legs out of the sand with a slightly stiff movement, as if surrounding the cypress trees.

They don't cause trouble, but they aren't afraid of trouble either!

Kashiwagi was not surprised by the attitude of these guys. Most evil-type Pokémon were not easy to negotiate, such as the Megalodon group they encountered earlier.

Absol is an exception.

"Okay, Regice, move forward and release a little bit of your freezing energy."

He took out the Poke Ball and pressed the switch.

boom!

"Chi chi chi—ra! chi! hey!"

The cross dot matrix flashes crazily.

Under the horrified gazes of the Mengge Cacti, Regius raised his arms like crystal pillars, and the white mist surrounding him spread forward as if blown by a strong wind.

【Frozen Wind】!

In an instant.

The sand and soil froze instantly wherever the white mist passed, and the translucent ice surface spread to more than ten meters away.

The Mengge Cactus's feet were frozen by the ice, making it difficult to move.

"Nah!"

"Hiss!"

They struggled wildly, hammering anxiously with their arms and attacking the ice on their legs with various moves, but they were completely unable to escape.

Kashiwagi turned over and got out of the car and said to them: "Don't worry, it will melt in half a day."

and got no response.

He didn't care, and walked directly to the pile of sand where the suspected person was buried, and gently lifted his shoes with his feet - and sure enough, he could feel something connected underneath.

"Do me a favor! Go dig that!"

He pointed to a rock that looked like an arm to Regice, and he quickly dug out the person under the gravel.

She's actually a woman?

Kashiwagi took a look at this man's attire and appearance.

He seems a bit older but should be less than thirty years old. His breathing is light and steady. There is no blockage in his mouth and nose. His limbs are intact with no obvious trauma. He has a Poké Ball and some strange things on his waist.

High fever and brief syncope.

He simply judged the other party's situation.

Bang!

There was a loud sound of sand and earth rushing as Regice pulled out a carrot from ahead.

A huge super armored rhinoceros appeared on the sand, also in a fainting state.

Wow……

Kashiwagi glanced at the Super Armored Rhinoceros, and then at the Mengge Cactus who was still processing ice cubes, thinking that the four times weaker grass really couldn't afford to hurt it.

A Pokémon that was supposed to be quite strong was beaten by a group of Mengsong Cactus.

"Thanks."

He thanked Regice and listened to its chirping before taking the ball back.

At the same time, he threw the unlucky woman onto the side of the hoverbike, found the Super Armored Rhino's Poké Ball, put it away, and waved goodbye to the Mengsong Cacti.

The engine roars.

The hoverbike returns the same way.

The Mengsong cacti, who were unable to escape, let out a long and painful cry at his back.

On the way back.

Kashiwagi called the Pokémon Center and asked the Happy Egg nurse to come out with a stretcher in advance. Unexpectedly, a weak voice suddenly came from beside him.

"wait wait wait……"

"Um?"

He turned his head and suddenly saw that the other party was already awake, and weakly stretched out his hand to stop him from making a call.

"I'm calling the Pokémon Center, what's wrong?"

"Don't go, don't go to the Pokémon Center..." the woman said intermittently, but she was still weak after all, and fainted after saying these two sentences.

Don't go to the Pokémon Center?

Why?

Kashiwagi looked at the man's clothes again. In all mainstream areas, there is only one kind of people who dare not go to the Pokémon Center-

Wanted criminals.

These people may be thieves who have done many evil things, or they may be villains who rob others of their Pokémon, or they may be members of an evil organization.

And there is only one kind of bad guys who can be attracted by Regirock.

Pokémon hunters!

Ha!

If you don't want to go, then don't go? It's not up to you!

Kashiwagi stepped on the accelerator, ready to call Junsha at any time, but at this moment, there was a whistling sound behind him.

He turned his head and immediately saw a huge aircraft flying from behind him.

The indicator light on the side of the aircraft flashed, indicating that he should stop.

Accomplices?

Kashiwagi thought about it and slowly reduced the speed until it stopped.

The aircraft also gradually slowed down and stopped in the Gobi Desert not far away.

A young man wearing a black hat, who didn't look like a good guy, jumped out of the hatch and approached while howling.

"Boss! Woohoo!"

"Only one?"

Kashiwagi held the Poké Ball, and he wanted to catch all these Pokémon hunters in one fell swoop.

After all, it would be fine if he didn't meet this kind of people, but if he met them and pretended not to see them, he would have no face to chat with N and Lugia in the future.

The young man didn't notice his little action at all, and cried and hugged the woman in the truck, grabbing her shoulders and shaking her constantly: "Boss! Boss, wake up!"

Kashiwagi: "..."

Is he afraid that the boss will not die?

He couldn't help but said, "Stop shaking. Your boss is injured and fainted. He also has a high fever reaction. He needs to take a fever-reducing injection and rest."

"Ah? Oh!"

The young man reacted stupidly, and said gratefully, "You saved my boss, right? Thank you!"

Bai Mu was even more speechless: "How do you know I saved your boss? What if your boss fainted because of me?"

The young man shook his head decisively and said, "How is it possible! We were..."

He didn't finish his words.

But the unconscious woman stretched out her hand to stop him from continuing. It seemed that the shaking just now really woke her up.

"Boss!" The young man was very surprised.

The woman shook her head at him, looked at the thoughtful Bai Mu, and said weakly: "My friend, thank you for your help. If you don't mind, come on our boat and rest for a while. I really want to thank you."

Bai Mu came back to his senses, his eyes met the woman's grateful eyes, and suddenly smiled and said, "Okay."

As the saying goes, don't enter a stranger's territory casually.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

But here comes the problem.

What if he is not a gentleman?

Standing on the side of the hoverbike, Kashiwagi took off the Poké Balls from his waist and threw them to the ground without leaving any trace. The strange grinning face that emerged from the shadow swallowed them one by one.

The young man helped the woman onto the flying vehicle, and Kashiwagi followed behind, thinking that the man just said something that shouldn't have been said, causing the woman to suddenly wake up and gag.

What exactly was it?

It could be that they encountered Regirock but were beaten back, or it could be that they had already obtained Regirock but something went wrong.

No matter which one it was, it was worth going up!
