Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

"No...don't lift it up. I can't stand this kind of stimulation for the time being."

Qiao Ran covered his eyes with his hands, revealing four fingers. It wasn't that he was... well, he was indeed a little greedy for the other person's body.

Qiao Ran swore that the Pokémon in front of him was so good-looking that it could easily outshine most humans. Even without clothes, it looked better than others in clothes.

"Let's... let's not talk about that for now. Why don't we just talk about who you are? Why did you suddenly appear here? What exactly is that anthropomorphic function?"

Qiao Ran felt a little dizzy now. Why hadn't he encountered these things before, but now they all popped up all at once?

Is this really a time travel benefit?

"I am the Rotom Mobile, the carrier of the Pokémon training system. I exist to help my master become a Pokémon Master. And Master, do you really not remember me?"

Rotom swayed in the air, revealing a portion of its body from the phone. However, unlike the orange-yellow bodies of other Rotoms, this one was rose-red.

"Shining Rotom! You are...!"

Qiao Ran widened his eyes in surprise. Hearing the other person's tone and the special color, Qiao Ran couldn't help but have an unprecedented thought in his mind.

"Could it be that... you..."

Qiao Ran has collected many shiny Pokémon, but that is not in this world, but in that game.

"Yes, I am one of the master's spirits. I thought you had truly forgotten me, Loto."

The Rotom phone flew happily in the air, as if it was happy that Qiao Ran actually recognized it.

"The purpose of my existence is to help you become the strongest Pokémon Master! With the system installed, I can help you do many things. This personification is just one of them, Loto!"

"Wait, wait, wait, I'm still a little confused. Please speak slowly first."

There was a lot of information in Rotom's words, and Qiao Ran found it difficult to digest it all at once.

This Rotom phone... is actually the carrier of a so-called "system"?

Rotom's next words also confirmed Qiao Ran's thoughts.

"To put it simply, I have a system installed within me, and this system is bound to you, the master. The purpose of this system is simple: to help you become a Pokémon Master."

"So what can this system do? Besides that anthropomorphism."

"Well... there are also some requirements you can complete, like unlocking the Pokémon you originally owned..."

"...Unlock the Pokémon I previously owned?? Unlock my old boxes... Those legendary beasts? Those companions???"

Hearing these words, Qiao Ran couldn't help but get a little excited.

He has played almost all versions of the Pokémon game, so the companions in these boxes have accompanied him from generation to generation. Compared to capturing new Pokémon in this world, he would definitely prefer to adventure with these Pokémon.

Moreover, these Pokémon are all extremely powerful. They are either legendary or mythical, or at the level of powerful ordinary Pokémon.

"Yes, but it requires some special prerequisites."

The Rotom phone floated in front of Qiao Ran, and a strange button appeared on the phone's interface.

There were five big words written on it - "Teleport to the Pokémon Land".

"Teleport? ...Pokémon Path?"

"Master, please click on the transmission button. Once you get there, I'll be able to continue the explanation."

"Like this?"

Qiao Ran nodded and pressed the button on the Rotom phone.

Although Qiao Ran was still a little confused, he was able to accept these things because of his experience with various online novels in the previous world.

When the button was pressed, a flash of light began to flash. Qiao Ran didn't know what happened, but after the flash of light, he, the Rotom phone... and Vulpix were all teleported to a seemingly barren wasteland.

"Where is...where?"

"This is the Pokémon Path, a small world just for you. It's where you breed your Pokémon and where they can live. It's also where you earn Pathfinder Points."

"Development point?"

Another strange term. Qiao Ran touched his head and felt that the amount of information was really getting bigger and bigger.

Rotom Mobile began its passionate commentary.

"Development points are the points necessary for the master to unlock his former partners. Every time 100 points are collected,

, you can randomly unlock a companion, Loto. "

"As for obtaining pioneering points... Since this world is brand new, there aren't any wild Pokémon. The owner must capture suitable Pokémon listed on the pioneering list from the outside world and place them in this world to gain pioneering points. The world will also evolve as Pokémon increase in number."

"In other words, to earn 100 development points, the master must capture the 100 Pokémon listed on the system list and release them into this world. Besides looking at the system list on the frontier bulletin board, you can also check Lotor within my body at any time."

"That means we have to keep catching new Pokémon..."

Qiao Ran nodded. Although Rotom had said a lot, the key point was this: as long as he kept capturing, he would be able to unlock his old companions. As long as he didn't stop, his companions would continue to be unlocked.

So, don't stop, Loto!

"So, what about that creature over there? Why did she become like that? How can she change back?"

After hearing the explanation, Qiao Ran turned the topic to his own Vulpix. His Alola Vulpix was so smart, clever, and adorable, how did it become like this?

Where's my adorable Vulpix? Why did it turn into a human? How can I fight him from now on?

Do I have to send a beautiful girl onto the field to perform a shoulder throw on the opponent?

Qiao Ran couldn't help but think of the scene of the humanized Vulpix coming on stage and passionately fighting with the mother Hao♀ power, and he shuddered with fear.

"So what exactly is the principle behind this... Lying in the nest!"

Qiao Ran couldn't help but yell "Hide your nest!" mid-sentence, because he saw that Liuwei, whom he had ignored, had quietly walked to the side of a small tree and raised a leg...

“You you you you you you...what are you doing???” Qiao Ran opened his mouth wide and pounced directly to stop the Harmonious Vulpix who was about to perform a harmonious behavior.

Although foxes belong to the canine family, this behavior is understandable, but this is not acceptable! If you continue like this, the whole story will be harmonized by you!

Qiao Ran flew forward and hugged Liuwei, who was trying to make peace. Liuwei looked at him with his big innocent eyes.

"?"

Qiao Ran's little heart was beating fast.

This guy...has a real problem with etiquette.

Chapter 3 003 [Why didn’t you say it earlier! ]

"You can't have harmony like this! You have to do this and this and this, you know! You have to be polite when you're having harmony!"

"Owner……"

Looking at Qiao Ran who was teaching Vulpix harmony, Rotom's phone floated over silently.

"Master, only Pokémon with an Intimacy of 80 or above can be humanized. After humanization, the Intimacy can be further increased, thereby increasing the power of Z Skills and Mega Evolutions. The average trainer can only reach 80 at most, but Master is different. You can continue to exceed this value!"

"So that's the purpose... I thought anthropomorphism was mainly for looking good..."

Listening to Rotom's explanation, Qiao Ran was slightly stunned. He finally understood the purpose of this humanization. Simply put, it was not only for good looks, but also to increase intimacy, so that the Z skills and Mega Evolutions that require bonds to exert their power can become more powerful.

When it comes to battle, Qiao Ran and his Pokémon can easily perform bond evolution or release Z skills, while the opponent still has to do it slowly for a long time. How can this be compared?

However, Qiao Ran still had many questions.

"Then how do I change this back?"

Qiao Ran looked at Vulpix in his arms. She had just finished her harmony and was now nudging her little head in his arms. However... unlike her beast form, this posture looked weird no matter how you looked at it. If someone else saw her in this state, they would probably think she was doing some weird play.

"As for this, the owner just needs to mentally change back. The same applies to changing into human form. Of course... the Pokémon can also control the transformation itself, so it may take some getting used to."

"Like this?"

Qiao Ran looked at Liuwei and began to recite silently in his heart.

Sure enough, after staring at each other for a second, Vulpix's body emitted a burst of light and began to change.

After a while, Vulpix shrank into a small white ball and turned into an ice fox that felt quite nice to touch.

The ice-type Vulpix from the Alola region is always a very cute creature no matter when you see it.

Maybe she wasn't very strong in battle, but since she had become his Pokémon, Qiao Ran wouldn't give up on her. Even if it was Vulpix, she could prove her worth.

"Awwww..."

Liuwei lay on Qiao Ran's body, yawned, and lay down quietly.

"By the way, Rotom, can you also transform into a person now?"

"I...um..." Rotom's phone screen turned red, and his expression turned a little lonely.

"For those of us who are Pokémon originally owned by our masters, our intimacy with our masters will have to start from zero, so..."

"So that's how it is." Qiao Ran nodded in understanding.

"Then just take your time."

"The first step now is to win the adventure competition that's about to be held at school. Only by winning can we get the opportunity to travel and catch more Pokémon!"

"Um."

Rotom also floated in the air excitedly, shaking off her frustration quickly.

"Master, do you enjoy fighting?"

"Of course, I'm the man who wants to be a Pokémon Master. Winning battles, becoming the champion, and being cheered on by others... isn't that what everyone wants to do?"

Qiao Ran gave a matter-of-fact answer. He wanted to win and become strong, not for survival, not for others, but just for the title of "champion".

Rotom nodded and continued.

"By the way, since this is your first time activating the system, you have a chance to draw a former companion."

"what?"

Qiao Ran widened his eyes in surprise.

Can I...draw a companion? ?Draw a Pokémon? ?

Why are you telling me such important information only now?

..........................................................................................

Day two.

Longjiang No. 3 Middle School.

The students in Class 1 (3) of Senior High School got up very early on this day. They all changed into their most carefully prepared sportswear and rushed to the school’s battle stadium.

Qiao Ran was among them, having made some preparations for today's duel. Furthermore, as time went by, he also recalled many of his memories from this world.

The class teacher gave a passionate speech on the stage.

"Classmates! Today is the day our class begins its adventure competition! Only the four who stand firm to the end will be qualified to become adventurers recognized by the alliance!"

"The qualifications of an adventurer are very important. I hope everyone will strive to obtain them. Traveling and adventuring outside can also gain more knowledge than in school. However, the prerequisite is that you have such a level and qualifications!"

"Becoming an adventurer will give you free access to all Alliance-built facilities, as well as the right to challenge gyms, collect badges, and join the Celestial Pokémon League!!"

"Let's work hard towards the league championship!"

The head teacher gave an impassioned speech, which also aroused the fighting spirit of many people. Fire ignited in the eyes of these young boys and girls, as if they saw their own future.

However, some people kept their heads down and said nothing. They might be the last in their class, unable to pursue the path to becoming a Pokémon Battle Master or a star. However, they did have other options, such as becoming a coordinator trainer participating in the Grand Tournament or a breeder.

But those things can only be discussed after they go to college.

"Is the game about to start?"

Since it was a class league, everything was kept simple, and only the class teachers and the dean of studies were watching the game. However, Qiao Ran still felt a surge of excitement from the bottom of his heart.

"Fight...fight."

Real Pokémon battles!

This isn't a fake world where you can perform a double kick by shaking the screen twice, but a world where Pokémon can really fight!

"The third match's opponent...Qiao Ran! Chang Mengda!"

Soon, the competition came to Qiao Ran. The fight between the students ended very quickly. It was basically a straightforward use of skills, which made Qiao Ran shake his head.

"Too reckless."

If these people were in the game, they'd probably be the type whose Pokémon's four skills are all offensive, and who wouldn't learn any other skills. Furthermore, they wouldn't consider their stats when learning skills, only their power.

When Qiao Ran arrived at the arena, he saw a short, fat man in a suit and tie opposite him, which fully embodied the feeling of "wearing adult clothes".
