Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

At the entrance of the cross cave, Mantle Rock and Turtle Foot both widened their eyes and stared at the flow of energy blocks.

Although they can eat ore, how can ore be as flavorful as energy blocks?

Fortunately, Haunter finally relented and came over to give bribes to the two territory guards.

"Hiss~"

Haunter returned to the campfire with a smile, and raised his paw as if to do something great. Unfortunately, Dorak and Bluejay, who were already asleep, could not see it at all, and Caterpie was curled up next to Wang Jin and was about to fall asleep.

Only the Ultrasonic Larva stared at Haunter with clear eyes, not understanding what this purple-black thing was doing.

"hiss..."

Haunter felt bored, so he turned around and fell down beside the campfire. He fell asleep in a second and started drooling.

Seeing this, Wang Jin also calmed down and lay down on the chair with his eyes closed.

The black night outside covered everything, with only the continuous raindrops and the occasional muffled sound from the sky. The cave with flickering firelight was almost a different world from the outside.

The wild Pokémon around them quickly finished their most precious dinner and curled up at the edge of the cave to sleep. This cave dug by the rock-attribute Pokémon does not belong to any creature, and all people and Pokémon can come in to avoid the heavy rain.

Wang Jin experienced the sweetest sleep since he came to this world. It was the first time he felt so relaxed. The nerves in his head that were always tense also quietly relaxed, and his empty mind became calm.

......

Time flies and it is the next day.

At about 6:30 in the morning, Wang Jin opened his eyes.

Facing the dim light outside, he found that the wild Pokémon that had taken shelter in the cave last night had left. A thin layer of mist rose in the early morning, covering the wet wasteland outside, and the air was a little cold.

Wang Jin stood up and folded the folding chair under his butt, then woke up the Pokémon one by one.

Blue Jay had already gotten used to it, and naturally flew to Wang Jin's shoulder. The Ultrasonic Larva had already woken up, but Growlithe was still fast asleep, so Wang Jin used the Poké Ball to retrieve Growlithe and Ultrasonic Larva.

Doronchi turned around and took Doronmesia with him and disappeared into the shadows.

"Hiss~Boom~"

Haunter stretched out, rubbed his eyes, then lay down and fell asleep.

"This Haunter is too lazy!" Wang Jin picked up Haunter's head, pondered for a while, and finally put this guy into the Poké Ball.

The biggest advantage of the Poké Ball is that it can serve as a temporary home for Pokémon at any time, and it doesn’t matter how you sleep.

Wang Jin packed up all his things and looked down at the small stove from last night. The fire in the center had been extinguished for a long time, and the mud wall on the innermost side of the stove had become very hard.

"Just stay here."

Wang Jin was too lazy to clean the abandoned clay stove, so he picked up his bag and walked out of the cave.

"Huh~" Facing the cool mist, Wang Jin lowered his hood and put on a mask. "It's a new day again."

"boom!"

There was a sudden explosion on a distant hilltop, and even the ground beneath Wang Jin's feet shook slightly.

"This is..." Wang Jin frowned.

Even through the fog, one could still see the black smoke rising from the mountain. Judging from the vibration just now, it seemed more like humans were using bombs or something like that to blow up the mountain.

"Let's go."

Wang Jin just glanced at it and was not interested in what happened there. His current goal was to go to Nilin Lake and fulfill his promise with Duolongqi.

If possible, find a few strong wild Pokémon to fight on the way to the Reverse Scale Lake, or get some gold coins from the ignorant trainers.

The boulder field ahead was covered with a layer of white mist. This moisture caused by excessive humidity would make wild rock attribute Pokémon uncomfortable. Therefore, in the early morning, many rock attribute Pokémon in the boulder field were still nestling in the caves and had not come out.

The heavy rain last night almost turned most of the boulder field into a swamp, and the original wasteland basically became a swamp. Some of the deeper muddy waters were so deep that you could step half a leg into them, but the surface was flat.

Wang Jin moved forward cautiously and let Blue Crow explore the way first.

"Chirp!"

The blue raven flew into the air, easily fanning its wings to create air currents to disperse some of the mist, and scouted the situation ahead.

In this way, Wang Jin walked forward another 700 to 800 meters. After passing through a lot of muddy ground that was close to a swamp, the blue jay finally turned around and flew back, making a warning cry.

"Chirp~"

Blue Crow landed on Wang Jin's shoulder, indicating that there was something going on ahead.

"Is it a wild Pokémon?" Wang Jin asked.

Blue Jay nodded slightly.

After some brief inquiries, Wang Jin determined that there were three or two small groups of scattered Pokémon in front, and their strength was around the level of gym leaders.

"What kind of Pokémon could it be? This kind of weather should have something to do with water or grass attributes..."

Wang Jin guessed and quickened his pace.

Not long after, in the mud ahead that was almost like a swamp, three dark blue frog Pokémon buried most of their bodies in it, quietly resting with their mouths puffed out.

"Two bad frogs and a poisonous frog..."

Wang Jin recognized the three Pokémon at a glance, and relevant information appeared in his eyes:

[Name: Bad Frog]

[Level: Level 31 (Gym Master Level)]

[Attributes: Poison, Fighting]

【Features: Dry skin】

[Items to carry: none]

The level of the other bad frog is one level higher than this one, and the rest remains unchanged.

The message of the poisonous skull frog is:

【Name: Poison Skull Frog】

[Level: Level 39 (Gym Master Level)]

[Attributes: Poison, Fighting]

【Features: Dry skin】

[Items to carry: none]

After the scan, Wang Jin immediately called on the blue crow on his shoulder to attack.

"Blue Crow! Use Air Blade!"

Hearing this, Blue Crow flew into the air, then flapped its wings and simultaneously released six intersecting air blades, covering the three bad frogs and poisonous skull frogs that were still resting quietly.

The sharp air blade easily cut through the mud and water ahead and disturbed the calm mist.

The poisonous skull frog was the first to sense something was wrong, and relying on years of survival experience, it jumped up and narrowly avoided the attacks of these deadly air blades.

The flying attribute restrains its fighting attribute. If it is hit by these air blades, the Poison Skull Frog knows that it will most likely lose its combat ability.

But at the same time, the dumbfounded bad frogs next to them did not have such experience and skills. When the poisonous skull frog jumped, they jumped with it, but they were not as fast or as high as the poisonous skull frog.

Both bad frogs were hit by at least two air blades. Blood marks were left on their dark blue skin, and they fell straight from mid-air into the muddy water, unable to get up and join the battle.

"Cuckoo..."

The giant red air sac on the poisonous skull frog's chest bulged high, and its eyes vigilantly scanned Blue Crow and Wang Jin who was walking slowly.

"Blue Jay, use a flash of lightning and then use the peck drill to get rid of it!"
