Ditto doesn't move

A Chansey caregiver who was available comforted them and led them to a relatively quiet rest area, where they sat on a bench to wait for the test results.

"Come to think of it, these people's attitude has been a bit strange from the very beginning..."

Before he had even sat down for two minutes, Xia Ming fell into deep thought as he looked at the Moo Moo Milk that had been presented to him.

The drinks were, of course, paid for by the cheerleaders, and they even paid for them out of their own pockets.

Meanwhile, Xiaotian, who had shouted "I want to be a trainer" to Xia Ming, was still holding his hands and praying that his partner would be alright, so he naturally couldn't take care of his newly recognized older brother.

Is it possible for stories to truly blossom into love through fighting?

Looking at the inexplicably docile trio of the shouting team in front of him, Xia Ming asked with interest while drinking his milk:

"I remember the Shout Team's base is in Spiketown in Galar, right? I heard the economy there is really bad. How did you guys manage to come to Alola?"

He asked it! He asked it!

Upon their first meeting, he asked a question that directly hit the sore spot of the three members of the Shout Team!

Xia Ming, you are very powerful now!

It is ten or even nine times more powerful than something that someone with social anxiety could never do in their entire life!

"I, we are, after all, official trainers."

The chubby guy from the shouting team stammered, seemingly embarrassed, "As long as you work hard, you can still save up a lot of money."

Got it, he's an idol fanatic obsessed with following celebrities.

Xia Ming then asked a second question that sounded like torture:

"I remember that in many places there's a tradition of letting 10-year-olds get a Pokémon to go on a trip. Did you give up halfway through?"

"No, do you think becoming a trainer is such an easy thing?"

The fat man from the shouting team was taken aback.

Book 1 The Happy Little Ditto: Chapter 7 I Completely Understand

Being able to travel alone with friends at the age of ten is like a super cool plus version of a spring outing for kids!

But while children only need to think about how to have fun, adults have a lot more to consider.

Safety, daily life, illness, whether they will get lost, and other issues—even if the average person in this world has the physical constitution of a Pokémon, they still have to rack their brains for the children's future.

Ultimately, the solution offered by the league's top officials was...

take an exam!

In addition to the normal general knowledge learning, the subjects of "Travel" and "Trainer General Knowledge" are added. Only children who pass the test at the beginning can receive the starter Pokémon, obtain a Pokédex with a location system and embark on their journey.

In other words, the legendary "other people's child".

Of course, the League is not some evil that "tells children there is no Santa Claus."

Although they can't go on a trip right away, most children receive their first Pokémon as a gift from their parents when they are ten years old, and they can go on a trip as long as they pass an annual exam.

If you're so clumsy that you fail the exam for six consecutive years, most long-distance transportation will be available to you in solo mode after you turn sixteen. You just can't go to the wilderness, but you can still freely travel to other cities and villages.

Although most people who haven't passed the test by the age of sixteen have already given up on their dream of becoming a trainer by now that they're practically adults.

This is precisely why children who dreamed of becoming trainers since childhood but ultimately failed to do so, as a form of revenge to compensate for their childhood and dreams, have seen the profession of trainer become so popular.

"As for formal trainers..."

The three members of the shouting team, somewhat proudly and smugly, unzipped their leather jackets, revealing a small badge pinned to them.

"Only those who obtain a gym badge in their first year of traveling can register their own trainer ID. If they don't get one, they can only register an ID after obtaining all eight badges in the entire region."

"I see," Xia Ming clapped his hands, indicating that he completely understood.

No wonder I didn't get my own Pokémon. Was it because I failed an exam when I was a kid?

Damn it, exams, you're utterly wicked!

In short, to become a trainer, I must first register as a citizen, then get my first Pokémon, and then defeat the gyms in a region.

Surplus, surplus.

Such a simple method, was I really an idiot when I was a child? Otherwise, why couldn't I pass it?

Oh, this is so bitter!

As they were talking, the red light outside the medical room dimmed, and Nurse Joy pushed the hospital bed out. Two Pokémon were lying under the covers, half asleep.

Seeing this, the three members of the shouting team and Xiaotian ignored Xia Ming and jumped to Miss Joey's side to ask about the specific situation. They were relieved to learn that she was not seriously injured, but was just too tired and needed to rest.

They glanced at Xia Ming with a hint of reluctance.

Look! What are you looking at me for? Go and rest with your Pokémon.

"I think they were captivated by your handsomeness."

A handsome middle-aged man, wearing a white lab coat, a sports cap, and green rimless beach glasses, appeared with his hands in his pockets, a cheerful smile on his face.

"You didn't seem to introduce yourself at all, nor did you give them your contact information. They're probably afraid they'll never see you again."

The three members of the shouting team and Xiaotian, the boy in swim trunks, quickly nodded.

What kind of expert has arrived now?

"My name is Kukui, and I'm a Pokémon Professor in the Alola region. Young man, your words of encouragement to this child just now really touched me," the man in the white coat said, extending his hand as if to shake hands.

Ribbit! It's Professor Kukui, the Pokémon godfather!

"Xia Ming".

Xia Ming reached out and shook hands with the other person. Then, he looked meaningfully at a familiar figure wearing a red hat who was peeking into their direction with a few kids not far behind him.

He then addressed the group of people who were still looking at him:

"Alright, you can go and let the Pokémon rest for now. If you want to find me, contact Professor Kukui later. I'm planning to have a good talk with him about Pokémon."

Awesome! We've hooked up with another powerful ally, guys!

Did you hear what the reporter just said? This cool and handsome guy is probably a Dark-type Champion from another region, or even a more terrifying one!

The group, each with their own thoughts, cheered and then headed to the lounge with their Pokémon.

Next up is... adult time.

Xia Ming carefully examined Dr. Kukui, whose terrifying aura was hidden beneath his kind smile, a kind of strength and arrogance that only a muscular man returning from hell possessed.

This is the real Alola champion, a hidden Pokémon Masters player disguised as the Royal Masked Man.

That momentum is strong and powerful, so strong and powerful!

……

"Then I'll be frank, I'm neither a trainer nor a champion."

graduate School.

Xia Ming sat on the sofa and said to the professor who was leisurely drinking tea:

"Dr. Kukui, you must have heard about Team Plasma from Unova."

The adults' discussions were naturally not to be disturbed by the little devils, but that didn't stop a group of kids from eavesdropping through the crack in the door.

As a true top-tier powerhouse in the Pokémon world, Professor Kukui, who single-handedly built a branch of the Pokémon League, naturally wouldn't be as alarmed as clowns and small fry. After a moment's thought, he picked up his teacup and said:

"An evil organization that pursues the true dragon and the ideal dragon? Are you perhaps implying that you are a member of that organization?"

Xia Ming shook his head:

"No. The Plasma Group is managed by a king and seven sages under him. The king is a boy named N."

"The real reason this boy has the power to communicate with Pokémon is that he is the child of a Pokémon and a human."

puff……

Dr. Kukui sprayed a mouthful of tea onto the computer in front of him.

He exclaimed in shock, "Wait, are you saying you're N?"

"No, that's not it." Xia Ming shook his head and changed his posture:

"But I am also a child of Pokémon and humans, and I grew up in the mountains far from society."

Humans compromise in this way.

When you say you're from another world and have become a Ditto, most people don't believe you.

But if you say you are the child of a Pokémon and a human, and there are numerous historical records in the Pokémon world and precedents like N, they will believe you.

Besides, who would reveal their biggest secret the moment they meet someone?

A basic sense of vigilance is an essential quality for a mature adult.

Although Professor Bill, who developed Pokémon storage technology, has a precedent of turning into a Pokémon and then back into a human, the same result does not mean the same process. Using the same method may not be able to turn Xia Ming back into a human.

The identities of Pokémon and hybrids are vastly different in practice.

At the very least, his mixed-race identity would make it easier for Xia Ming to integrate into human society in the Pokémon world and embark on the path to becoming a trainer.

Even today, he still possesses unparalleled and astonishing wisdom!

"I... I think I understand." Dr. Kukui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Damn! Aren't Pokémon and humans falling in love just a legendary story? Why do you people have such weird fetishes?!

He no longer cared about his wet laptop:

"So what brings you to Alola?"

"Unlike N, who hates Pokémon battles, I want to become a Pokémon Trainer."

Xia Ming lowered his head and interlaced his fingers, but his aura surged dramatically in that instant!

"Because I believe that although there are some bad apples among humans, the majority are good at heart. So I want to become a Pokémon Master to convey the feelings of Pokémon to everyone in a more appropriate way!"

"Like today?"

"Just like today."

"understood."

Dr. Kukui was silent for a moment, then let out a long sigh:

"This is an unexpectedly heavy topic. But I think I know why you're here. You need a legal identity, right?"

Plan succeeded!!! Xia Ming clenched his fist in celebration!

Professor Kukui—no, the Royal Masked Man—fully unleashed the aura of a true Pokémon Master at this moment.

The clash between the two seemed to create lightning in the air!

"I personally want to fully support you, but I have some conditions..."

Book 1 Happy Little Ditto: Chapter 8 Let's Choose Our Starter Pokémon!

"Ash, Ash! Did you hear what they were saying?"

When it came to the specifics of the transaction, the two adults lowered their voices considerably, making it difficult to hear them if they moved a little further away.

The four future island captains of the Alola League (roughly equivalent to gym leaders), who were peering through the crack in the door, were so curious that they wanted to rush into the room.

"Um...is it really okay to eavesdrop like this?"

The speaker was named Lillie, a girl with a pure and lovely temperament like ice cream.

But a boy in the group with fiery passion immediately turned around. This hot-blooded young man named Kachi clenched his fist and said emotionally:

"Lillie, what are you saying? To be able to understand the Poliwag's thoughts and feelings for its trainer so deeply, you must be a true Pokémon master! That's wonderful, that's wonderful. I'd also like to ask the master for guidance..."

“I think this gentleman has the air of a scientist,” said Mamane, the chubby boy who is an expert in electricity and science, his eyes shining. “He seems to have perfectly calculated the development and outcome of the battle from the very beginning. I really want to know if he has a deeper understanding of Pokémon theory!”

"Haha... whatever makes you happy."

Girls really do have a hard time understanding boys' thought processes, but then Lillie looked at the other two girls: "Lian, Mao, why are you two so excited too?"

"I just sensed the gossip vibe..." A cheerful girl with green twin tails, like Hatsune Miku, said with a slightly embarrassed smile.

The blue-haired girl with a bob haircut, Shui Lian, said seriously, "I sensed the aura of a powerful angler from him."
