Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

North of Pallet Town.

Since Pallet Town is located in a remote area, at the southernmost part of Kanto and sparsely populated, it is surrounded by forests on three sides.

About three kilometers away from the Ohki Institute.

A group of trainers in uniform black uniforms stopped in the forest. The square-faced man in the lead took out a device from his pocket and carefully compared the direction.

After a long while, a young subordinate at the back couldn't help but ask, "Team Leader Bailey, are we really on the right track?"

"How is that possible!" The square-faced man Bailey raised his voice, "It's impossible that we're going wrong! This is the direction of the Oak Research Institute!"

After hearing this, several subordinates at the back became somewhat frustrated and talked in low voices.

"Is it true that we are going to the Oak Research Institute?"

"Will you be arrested immediately and thrown into the Alliance prison if you go there?"

"The team leader didn't deliberately take the wrong route this time... It's over."

Several people were dejected.

Team leader Bailey stood with his hands on his hips and yelled, "What are you all yelling about? What happened to Oak Research Institute? As long as we don't take the initiative to say that we are from Team Rocket, who would know?"

Everyone looked at the red R mark on the chest of Bailey's black uniform and remained silent.

Bailey also glanced at the Team Rocket logo on his chest, patted it vigorously, and shouted to several subordinates in front of him: "What a glorious logo! How can we deliberately cover it up? That would be a betrayal to the leader!"

Seeing everyone's complicated expressions, he paused and said, "Besides, the red R is just a very common logo. Who can say that anyone with this logo must be Team Rocket?"

Bailey was too lazy to talk nonsense with this group of lazy subordinates. He picked up the communication device to compare the location and muttered:

"This is a high-priority mission ordered by the leader himself. I'm already amazing enough that I was able to get it. You guys are still unwilling to do it..."

"Team leader, we can wait for you here." A subordinate bravely whispered, "We'll pick you up here."

Bailey's bear eyes widened: "Don't even think about running! Unless a higher priority mission comes up!"

After that, all the subordinates fell silent again.

Tasks with higher priorities are difficult to accomplish even for the highest-ranking officials in the organization. How could they, the little minions, accomplish that?

Even if you meet him, it's just a waste of time, not to mention that you won't meet him at all...

Bailey quickly confirmed the direction and continued to move towards the Oak Research Institute.

The crowd was speechless and could only pray that they would not be caught.

In mid-air, a pink elf emerged, swaying. It looked like a floating upright kitten with its long tail hooked at the soles of its feet.

It is Kanto's most famous legendary Pokémon, the mythical Pokémon, the source and genetic mother of Mewtwo, and is known as the dream from which all elves originate.

Menghuan looked at these strange people under her with curiosity.

After a while.

"Boss Bailey, I always feel like someone is watching me." A subordinate said hesitantly.

Bailey raised his fist at him: "Chief, a handsome man like you wouldn't have such an idea. I think you deserve a beating!"

"......" The subordinate who was speaking had to shut up, but his eyes that couldn't stop looking around still exposed his uneasiness.

Although Bailey thought he was just talking nonsense, the other Rockets subordinates who were feeling nervous and bored all paid more attention and looked around at the person who was speaking.

What if there really is someone there?

If he was caught before reaching the Oak Research Institute, wouldn't that be like a caterpillar walking into a net?

"miu~" Menghuan flew over their heads with its tail shaking.

A man caught a glimpse of this scene and was stunned: "Boss Bailey, I think I saw Pokémon."

"There are no Pokémon anywhere? Why are you making such a fuss?" Bailey was annoyed by these guys who only knew how to talk nonsense.

“No, no, no!” The man pointed at the dream that paused in mid-air, “Boss! That seems to be the elf in the picture of the organization before! It seems... its name is Dream or something...”

"Meng Meng?" Bailey turned around and showed a disdainful smile, "You can see Meng Meng? I can also see Feng Wang!"

As he spoke, he followed the guy's hand and moved his eyes: "Don't fool me with this kind of thing..."

Bailey's voice was stuck.

My steps couldn't help but stop.

Because this pink elf that looks like a kitten in the air in front of you... isn't it just a dream?

The most important elf to the organization, which has been explained over and over again by the leader and the three major cadres!

If you can catch...

Get promoted, get a raise, and be valued by your boss!

Everyone on Team Rocket swallowed almost at the same time, their dazed eyes revealing desire.

Menghuan looked at them strangely, thinking that these guys wanted to play with it.

Just like those guys before who loved to chase.

"miu~" Huanhuan turned around quickly, maintaining a posture that was neither high nor low, neither fast nor slow, and flew towards the distance.

The members of Team Rocket were like people in primitive society catching bird-like Pokémon with their bare hands. When they saw a Pokémon escaping at a distance no higher than the treetops, they couldn't control their legs and started chasing it.

The priority of Dream is definitely higher than the mission to go to Oak Research Institute!

"Don't run!" Bailey took the lead and shouted loudly, scaring away many Pidgeots.

Menghuan glanced back and then sped up a little.

Before they knew it, Team Rocket had strayed from their original route.

...

"What is this sound?"

Qingluo, who was hiking to Viridian City, was a little confused.

After parting with Wang Jin, he did not choose to ask his grandfather but left the Oak Research Institute directly and started traveling.

Qinglu knew that if Grandpa wanted to tell him something, he didn't have to bother asking...

As for now, he had just left and had not yet left the forest.

But the noise in the forest, the explosion of moves, and the escape of elves became more and more intense, as if they were fighting a desperate battle.

Qinglu frowned. When another explosion sounded not far away and the black smoke rising from there could be clearly seen from mid-air, he threw the Poké Ball without hesitation:

"Bi Diao!"

A light brown bird Pokémon with bright feathers, majestic appearance, more than two meters tall, and a wingspan of up to seven or eight meters flew out.

Pidgeot grabbed Qinglu's shoulder with his claws and flew higher and higher towards the source of the sound.

boom!

There was another explosion.

The raging crimson flames streaked across the sky above the forest, then mysteriously disappeared, leaving behind only a faint pink glow.

As the distance got closer, Qinglu could see the situation clearly.

It's a pink kitten elf...

"It's a dream!" Qinglu couldn't help but burst out in surprise.

The mythical Pokémon that I had been thinking about day and night appeared before my eyes.

But......

There are also many ferocious trainers roaming at the bottom of the forest.

They were dressed in uniforms, well-trained, and had a red R printed on their chests!

"Team Rocket!"

Qinglu's heart tightened and he quickly ordered Pidgeot to descend.
