Elf Trader: My trump card is the Light/Dark Mantis.

The Celadon City Gym Leader, who is quite influential in the League, looked like he had gone mad!

I stood there stunned for a long time!

"It's okay, I'm fine."

Rika wasn't some naive girl who believed everything Jiang Gu said.

The gym leader of Yuhong City also had a slight suspicion that the black market shopkeeper in front of him might be trying to deceive him.

But Rika thought about it...

There's absolutely no reason for this person to lie!

The Pokémon before us, named Dahl, is a completely new, undiscovered Pokémon, and it's not impossible that it possesses a new type...

Moreover, Jiang Gu explicitly stated that Fighting-type Pokémon possess the power to counter Dragon-type Pokémon.

This is something that can be easily tested through Pokémon battles!

Therefore, the only reasonable explanation is...

What Mr. Jiang Gu said is mostly true!

Chapter 3: Little Bean Sprouts and Cactus!

Rika snapped out of her daze, not even having time to worry about her earlier outburst. She hurriedly and excitedly said to Jiang Gu.

"Manager Jiang, this is an extremely important discovery!"

"I don't know... would it be convenient for you to come with me to the Alliance headquarters in the Kanto region?"

"The discovery of Fighting-type Pokémon will absolutely shake the entire world!!"

The dojo master of Yuhu City, dressed in gorgeous clothes, bowed her head in pleading, and looked so gentle that it was hard not to want to agree to her request.

But Jiang Gu remained unmoved.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you."

“Miss Lijia, I’m just a shop owner.”

"The empty title of discovering new Pokémon types is not important to me."

"But……"

Rika wanted to say something more, but Jiang Gu simply raised his hand, making a gesture to stop there.

“Miss Lika, if you want to buy Grass-type Pokémon, I have quite a few rare species that the League has not yet discovered.”

"If you're not here to make a deal with me, then I'll have to see you out."

Jiang Gu would never agree to reveal any information about Fighting-type Pokémon to the League.

Anyway, these elves from the Seer universe are only controlled by me in the whole world.

that……

Rather than painstakingly publishing research findings on one's own to gain prestige.

It would be better to release information about the new type of Pokémon, actively luring researchers to come to us to buy Pokémon and rip them off!

That's what you call a steal!

"But……"

"But……"

Rika wanted to say something more, but seeing Jiang Gu's determined look, she could only nod helplessly.

The gym leader of Celadon City dared not underestimate this black market shopkeeper at all; someone who could obtain a Pokémon with a new type...

They likely have very powerful backgrounds and are not people you can easily provoke.

Even though the Yuhong City dojo master was unwilling, he could only choose to remain silent at this moment.

However, Jiang Gu greeted the customers warmly as soon as they came to him.

"Alright, Dahl."

"Bring me those two little guys I brought back a couple of days ago."

Jiang Gu gave a word of advice.

Then Lijia saw the rather cute and adorable little green praying mantis turn and run towards the container.

"Hey!"

"Hey!"

petite Dahl

Then, it dragged two strangely shaped capsules and handed them to Jiang Gu.

"This is?"

Rika was still somewhat puzzled as to why Juggernaut was unwilling to announce the appearance of Fighting-type Pokémon...

But the next second, she was captivated by the two adorable creatures that appeared before her.

Jiang Gu gently pressed the two capsules.

In an instant, this strange creation split open from the middle, releasing pure white lightning, and then two petite figures slowly appeared.

A small, bean sprout-like creature, pale yellow in color, is held atop a tray woven from long, emerald-green roots.

Two pale-colored leaves waved incessantly, looking quite joyful.

The other one, quite the opposite of its companion, was a small cactus with a sullen expression, its sharp spines swaying gently, seemingly not very friendly.

"These two sprites are Little Sprout and Cactus."

Jiang Gu casually introduced them, since it was easy to match their names with the two Pokémon just by looking at their appearance.

"Miss Rika, these are all Grass-type Pokémon you've never seen before, right?"

Jiang Gu said confidently.

Lika nodded with a sense of novelty.

"awesome!"

"It really is an undiscovered Pokémon!!"

The gym leader of Celadon City stepped forward excitedly, though she was still puzzled as to why the Poké Ball Jiang Gu had taken out was different...

But as a fervent enthusiast of Grass-type Pokémon, Rika had no time to think about such things.

She excitedly half-squatted down and gently stroked the roots of the little bean sprout a few times, feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Gurgle!"

"Gurgle!"

The latter responded with a joyful cry, seemingly showing great affection for Rika.

"Yes, I like you too!"

Lijia seemed to understand the little bean sprout's voice and affectionately reached out to hug it.

The latter, in particular, became extremely happy and kept snuggling and rolling around in Lijia's arms.

Then, the gym leader of Yuhu City reached out and took the cactus's small, spiky hand in his own.

"What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"

The cactus, which had initially seemed aloof, immediately retracted its thorns and obediently let the gym leader from Celadon City take its hand when Rika approached.

"A cactus? Nice to meet you."

Lika, in a tone as if coaxing a child, pressed her forehead directly against the top of the cactus's head...

The cactus, which initially seemed to be in a bad mood, was soon won over by the Grass-type Gym Leader and began to smile.

Thus, a rather warm and cozy scene unfolded in a shop in the underground black market of Yuhong City.

A beautiful young girl dressed in long-sleeved gowns plays happily with two elves from Planet Kross in the Sailor Universe.

Jiang Gu nodded secretly upon seeing this.

Firstly, in his view, it was indeed the right thing to do to bring Pokémon from different worlds to the Pokémon world, where these creatures would receive the love and appreciation of their trainers.

For the little sprout and the cactus, being with Rika would definitely be much happier than their original fate.

Secondly, Jiang Gu felt that his efforts in capturing the little sprout and the cactus on Kross Star in the Seer Universe had not been in vain.

It looks like this first order has a very promising future!

Then, he went on to explain,

Then, Jiang Gu stepped forward at the opportune moment.

"Miss Rika, what do you think of these two elves?"

"They really are..."

"Extremely beautiful and charming."

"I love so much!"
