Book 1 The Happy Little Metamorphosis: Chapter 74 Apprentice Girl: Do you have any clues?

Thanks to Xia Ming's reminder, the Rattata overpopulation incident, which should have led Ash to the Great Pilgrimage, was prevented from happening by the prepared police and the island king.

Rockruff only recently formed a partnership with Ash due to the relocation of the Pokémon Gym, and has not yet been officially caught.

This demonstrates the destructive power that time travelers can have on world lines.

Even if Xia Ming knew, he wouldn't care. What he truly cared about was:

"Damn, why do we have to work overtime even during a typhoon?! Is this...?"

"What are you talking about, senior? It's precisely because it's a typhoon day that we have to work overtime. I've been waiting for this day for so long!"

The trainee, wearing a raincoat, was overjoyed and almost wanted to buy a string of firecrackers to celebrate.

"You have no idea, I've only worked overtime for three days this year! If I told my family about this, they'd laugh at me, saying I'm still a baby girl who's been breastfeeding!"

Do people in your Pokémon world have some kind of serious illness?

Clearly, extreme weather such as torrential rain and strong winds are commonplace for the islanders of Alora.

While there are indeed some risks involved, as long as you avoid reckless activities like extreme sports at sea, you are generally safe from harm.

You can play without worry, the invincible Pokémon will figure out the solutions.

Even though it had already started raining heavily, the old man who ran out wearing only a vest was like a college student who suddenly had an idea, running out to collect tree fruit while getting soaked in the rain.

And they euphemistically call it: enjoying life.

I think you guys just ate too much.

I was woken up early this morning by a barrage of urgent calls from the police station.

Xia Ming, who thought Lusamine had pulled off a big stunt and summoned the mule ahead of time, rushed over with Riolu to help, only to be taken to the orchard in a van.

"Oh dear, Miss Officer Jenny, you don't need to take such good care of this old man."

Master Tree Fruit, wearing a straw hat, revealed the innocent smile Xia Ming was familiar with:

"It doesn't matter if it gets damaged by the typhoon. I moved from Johto to Alora to open a fruit orchard because I wanted to bring some new crops to grow here."

"I never imagined that in Alora, these fruit trees don't need to be planted or watered at all. You can just scatter a handful of seeds and wait for the harvest."

Alola, isn't that amazing?

The reason why this region is the first to not need to grow fruit trees is just that absurd.

"This won't do! Wasting fruit is shameful!" The trainee called out excitedly as she harvested the tree fruit, "Senior~ Come and help!"

Xia Ming rolled his eyes and gave Riolu a look that made him eager to try.

I've chosen you, Riolu.

Go ahead, you lazy master, I need you to step in now. My precious transformation energy can't be wasted on something like this.

Fortunately, he wasn't the only one who wanted to slack off at work.

Oh, Growlithe! My dearest friend!

Are you also hiding here to slack off because you can't stand working overtime?

The fire-attribute dog, listless due to the excessively humid weather, rubbed against Xia Ming's leg, panting and whimpering.

Recently, most of the people in the police station have received his tactical guidance, and even the Pokémon have become very close to Xia Ming.

The story begins with one person and one dog, hiding under a tree listening to the pattering rain and the howling wind.

This sound must be the lament of those local overlords.

At this moment, the emperor felt a long-lost sense of peace and tranquility.

Until he saw a familiar figure:

————Dadian Haiyan

A Power-type Pokémon from the Padia region, nicknamed Zapdos, recently joined Team Mython and just secured the ninth seat of the Elite Ten.

His mastery of volt replacement techniques was so exquisite that it was almost divine.

How did my men end up here?

I remember it was sent to seize the throne of Rada, wasn't it?

Could it be that something has changed again, or that they have been driven down by the mere Lada?

Or did this guy overestimate himself and challenge Garp?

Amidst the swaying wind and rain, a petrel with a beautiful gold and black color scheme streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning, finally landing beside... the trainee girl.

The emperor's gaze instantly sharpened.

"Wow, trainee, is this your newly caught Pokémon?"

Xia Ming, the Martial God, stepped out from under the shade of the tree, approached the trainee girl, and asked casually.

"Eh???"

Before the silly little girl could react, she casually fed a freshly picked tree fruit into the mouth of the giant electric seagull next to her.

"You mean the Giant Electric Petrel? That's a friend I met at summer camp when I was little," the trainee said with a smile as she picked tree fruit. "Back then, it was just a Giant Electric Petrel."

"Oh, it's an old partner. I was wondering why I didn't see him during the training sessions."

The leader's tone had begun to become somewhat sarcastic.

"Hehe, I only recently told my family to send it over," the intern said, scratching the back of her head sheepishly.

"To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed. Senior, didn't you say before that having a Flying-type Pokémon would be very helpful? I think that makes sense, so I asked it to help."

"However, this child seems quite arrogant. If I can't defeat it, it won't let me subdue it."

Oh, I see.

Xia Mingwu's anger subsided slightly; at least he wasn't a traitor sent by the police to infiltrate our organization.

Damn it, if you really are a traitor, wouldn't all my amazing wisdom be thrown on the ground and severely insulted?

I can accept being fooled by others, but I can't accept being tricked like this by a trainee!

"But, something's a bit strange, senior." At this point, the trainee scratched her face in confusion: "I know how strong Electric Seagull is. It used to be only a little stronger than Growlithe."

"I originally wanted to train Growlithe a bit more before formally challenging this kid and then catching it."

"But is Alola really a suitable region for Electric Petal to live in? I always feel that Electric Petal becomes a bit... well, a bit disdainful of others when battling."

"Growlithe's strength has been improving rapidly under your guidance, senior, but it was easily defeated by it, and the defeat was even faster than before."

"Senior, do you have any clues?"

What do you think?! Big Electric Seagull?

Not only was he slacking off in front of me, his boss, but he was also flirting with the trainee!

Our Dream Beast Team doesn't have a top ten like you!!!

The traitor—no, the double agent—looked completely tamed by the woman, craning his neck like Tom eagerly awaiting something, and shamelessly swallowed the fruit in one gulp.

You're done.

P.S.: On the last day of 2024, I can't think of any blessings to send.

I wish everyone can buy new underwear for the New Year!

P.S.: Is the game Meta fun?

Book 1 The Happy Little Metamorphosis: Chapter 75 The Fruit Has Been Sent, I'll Be Back Soon

Lush caves.

Located in the Alora region, near Highway 2 on Melemele Island, which is also the back of the extinct volcano.

It is a cave where various plants grow lushly. When the sun shines brightly, the light shining through the cave ceiling creates a beautiful Tyndall effect, and it is one of the Alora Hundred Views.

For Pokémon, this is the territory of the dominant force and the training ground for the strong.

In typhoon-like weather, wild Pokémon will naturally seek refuge here, and even Totem Pokémon will not drive away Pokémon they dislike at this time.

Hiding in a cave, listening to the howling wind outside, and seeing the Pokémon living together harmoniously inside, creates a stark contrast.

This is why, even knowing it was typhoon weather, Professor Kukui dared to bring a group of children to watch the Totem Pokémon.

What danger could there be in a lush cave where Pokémon would seek shelter from the wind and rain?

"so good."

Seeing the wild Pokémon getting along so well, Ash felt very at ease, and even the boredom of not being able to play games and battle was forgotten.

Although the lord Mongoose Inspector and the lord Rattata (Alola Mode) clearly don't get along, both sides still try to control their tempers and their subordinates.

Like the sun and the moon, they occupy the two sides of the cave in a clear and distinct manner.

Dudu lulu lulu lulu lulu~

In this peaceful and tranquil atmosphere, Dr. Kukui's phone rang at an inopportune moment, breaking the rare tranquility.

"Oh no! Kukui! Oh no!"

The caller was Riz, the queen of Akala Island.

This island queen, who usually exudes a perfect and carefree aura like a big sister, usually likes to emphasize to others that she is single, cast a shadow over the mood of the listeners with her anxious tone.

"Is Hala next to you? I can't get in touch with him for some reason! I heard the fighting in Hapuu is over, but it's still fierce in Merdan. Has it started on your end?!"

"Stir? Stir what? What started? Quack! Don't rush me, tell me slowly!"

Could it be that some evil organization is taking advantage of this weather to launch a major attack on Alola?

I didn't know about this?

"Listen! I can't control my feelings right now, and I don't know how to describe them to you..."

On the phone, Lizhi was still rambling on and on, but it was already too late.

The dormant mongoose detective and the domineering Radamanthys were instantly awakened, their pupils dilated, and they looked in the direction from which the feeling of palpitation had come from.

The entrance to the lush cave.

A Pokémon figure appeared there, patting the raindrops off its fur.

Quack! Here comes another expert!

It's a Hercules! A Hercules of extremely high purity!

Snorlax has unsurprisingly won first place in the "Most Wanted to Lie on Its Belly and Take a Lazy Sleep" poll for three consecutive years.

It is said that it will not feel full or happy unless it eats 400 kilograms of food every day.

He's known as a big eater that even the poor can't afford to feed.

The newcomer was none other than Snorlax, the eighth seat of the Dreammon Team's Elite Ten, who had somehow completed his evolution!

"Wow, it's Snorlax!"

"Did you come here to take shelter from the rain too? Come on over, I brought a towel, I can help you dry off."

Having raised Snorlax before, Ash felt an inexplicable joy welling up inside him the moment he saw the other creature.

Snorlax is both powerful and adorable, you're my favorite!

"Pikachu! (That's what you say to every Pokémon)"

As if sensing Ash's thoughts, Pikachu made a subconscious comment.

But Ash had barely taken two steps when Professor Kukui, with a serious expression, grabbed him by the back of the neck:

"Ash, you have no sense of atmosphere at all."

Eh? ? ?

A question mark appeared on the head of the ten-year-old newcomer with twenty years of experience as a trainer, but then he noticed that the Rockruff next to him was trembling with excitement.

"Woof! (It's the Elite Ten! Could this be part of that person's plan?!)"

"Woof! (To witness such a battle of titans, even dying would be worth the ticket price!)"
