Female Trainer's Flavor Tasting Guide

"We're not here to cause you any trouble this time, that's enough!"

"That's right, meow. Don't be ungrateful, meow."

The trio was obviously very dissatisfied with the boy in the baseball cap. They clenched their fists and stared at the boy's cheeks, while the other hand was placed on their Poké Balls, as if they were ready to throw them.

Similar to the trio, the boy also had no good feelings towards them.

"But I clearly saw you stealing other people's Pokémon. Return them to their trainers."

"Nonsense! How dare you assume who those Pokémon belong to? Pokémon are 'undefinable', so how can they belong to anyone?"

"Musashi, you said it well, Musashi."

"That's it, meow. Ultimately, people like you who presume to be Pokémon masters are hopeless, aren't you?"

The three of them argued for their rights.

"Damn it! It looks like this isn't just any bad guy! We have to strike hard!"

"Pikachu, let's go! It's raining now, let's show them how powerful thunder is!"

"Damn it, don't think we're afraid of you, little brat!"

"Abo monster!"

"Double bomb gas!"

"Our Team Rocket is invincible, meow!"

Finally, the two sides in the dispute could no longer tolerate each other's "big talk" and directly sent out their own Pokémon.

A "shocking" war was about to break out in just a few words.

Just as they were about to use their own moves, Zi Yu, who had been "diving" from the beginning, finally spoke.

"What are you doing here?"

He came in front of the crowd and glanced at everyone.

The three real protagonists, Musashi, Kojiro, Meowth, and Satoshi, whom he had never met before, are the two players in the dispute.

This was the first time Zi Yu met Xiao Zhi.

However, he had heard from Professor Oak that Satoshi had also come here, so he was not too surprised that Satoshi appeared here.

It is worth mentioning that, judging from the conversation between the two sides just now, the Xiaozhi in front of him seems to be more mature than the one in the animation.

He's just a fledgling trainer, but he already knows how to use the weather flexibly, which doesn't seem like the style of Ash, the master of reverse attributes.

Pikachu can indeed learn the move 'Thunder'.

In the game, this is a move with a power of 110 and no side effects.

But the flaw of this move is that its hit rate is not the full value but 70.

This means there is a 30% chance of missing the target when used.

A 70% hit rate is almost unacceptable in a battle.

You should know that even a Cliff Sword with 85 hits and the ability to hit two at the same time will often make the trainer red and warm, not to mention a single target with 70 hits.

But the beauty of Thunderbolt is that its description adds an extra sentence "It will definitely hit if used in rainy days", and it can also hit those Pokémon flying in the sky, which is a specialization against Pokémon.

Although Xiaozhi does not have 'Little Kyogre' or 'Big Kyogre' to make it rainy for him, today's weather itself creates an advantage for Xiaozhi.

In fact, this rain is not only related to the thunder move, more importantly...water in reality can conduct electricity.

So Xiaozhi has a great chance of winning this battle.

It is commendable that Xiaozhi, a novice trainer, can realize this.

Of course, the moment Zi Yu appeared on the scene, it didn’t matter that Xiao Zhineng couldn’t defeat Musashi and Kojiro.

After all... Kojiro, who wanted to command the Double-Egg Gas, almost trembled even his own Double-Egg Gas after seeing the appearance of the person who came.

"Are you Zi Yu?!"

At this moment, he finally recalled the fear he felt when he was dominated by Zi Yu in Beishang Township and Padiya.

This man... is just fucking annoying.

They really can't help but be afraid.

Not only is Zi Yu surrounded by a bunch of mythical and magical beasts, but even the women around him are incredibly strange.

Last time they took on a mission to Alola, they were thinking of taking the opportunity to take revenge on the girl named Liliae who had been with Zi Yu before.

Lillie then pulled out a Level 1 God, and that Level 1 God blew them away with just one move. If the other party hadn't shown mercy, I'm afraid...

Are the divine beasts around Zi Yu all sold on a wholesale basis?

And it's clear that Kojiro isn't the only one who casts a shadow on Azusa.

After Zi Yu appeared, Musashi immediately protected Arbok in front of him and said in a cowardly voice:

"Why are you here? I'm telling you, I'm not afraid of you."

"Don't think you can defeat us! We, Team Rocket, will never surrender!"

Compared to Kojiro and Musashi's stubbornness, Meowth was much more straightforward. It simply hid behind everyone:

"If you want to fight, fight Musashi and Kojiro. I don't know anything, meow."

"What? Meow, you traitor!"

"Yesterday you were saying, 'Next time I see Zi Yu, I'll make sure he never comes back,' but now you're selling us out!"

"But this topic was obviously brought up by Kojiro, meow. It's none of my business, meow."

"Nonsense! I only joined in after seeing Musashi speak first. It's all Musashi's fault!"

Before Zi Yu could speak, the trio started arguing for some inexplicable reason, and the more they argued, the more angry they became.

"So, what's going on?"

In desperation, Zi Yu had to turn his attention to Xiaozhi, the most reliable of the four.

"what."

Xiaozhi, who was still enjoying the show, was suddenly awakened by Ziyu's voice. He scratched his head awkwardly and said:

"Actually, this is what happened. Today, when I was participating in the paddling competition, I happened to see them stealing someone else's Pokémon, so I wanted them to return the Pokémon."

"Those two trainers must be very anxious."

Xiaozhi had never really met Ziyu before, but he had seen the scene of Ziyu beating up Qinglu on the Internet, so he was actually quite excited now, a bit like "meeting his idol".

Xiaozhi's answer also piqued Ziyu's interest.

Although the Rockets' operations are very shabby, the targets they are eyeing are probably still quite valuable. What is the "business" they are eyeing this time?

He once again set his sights on the Rockets trio:

"Tell me, whose Pokémon did you steal?"

"If you don't tell, there's a reward. If you tell, there's a punishment."

"..."

The three of them looked at each other, as if they were wondering what Zi Yu meant by "punishment" and "reward".

After a few seconds, Kojiro took out an envelope with "Suicide Note" written on the cover from his pocket and handed it to Musashi. Then he whispered to Zi Yu:

"Actually, this matter is nothing at all. We robbed the twin duo who are ranked first in the thieves rankings."

"Isn't it a good thing to steal their Pokémon? At least they're missing an important tool for committing crimes, and we're doing a good thing."

"And we only started fighting because they called us 'trash'. This is all their fault."

"Oh?"

Kojiro's words made Zi Yu even more interested.

If he remembered correctly, the twins ranked first in the world's thieves rankings were Sana and Lian, the ones who stole the Heart Drop and Latios, right?

Originally, Zi Yu was still thinking about which direction to start investigating these two high-tech thieves, but they actually came to his door themselves.

However, there was one thing that was very strange in what Kojiro said.

Because the fighting ability of Musashi and Kojiro cannot be said to be strong, it can only be said that it is like Pu Pu's takeout at home - the food has arrived at home.

It would be quite difficult for them to steal Sana and Lian's Pokémon.

What's more, there was a Latios that was forcibly taken away from Sana and Lian.

This is very subtle...

However, as long as these things are caught, everything will be revealed. For Zi Yu and Latias, the most important thing now is their whereabouts.

"Tell me, where are they now?"

Zi Yu's tone became more serious.

"I don't know. We were only focused on robbing them, so why would we care where they went?"

"Well...actually, I roughly know something about it. I asked for their contact information before I left."

"But since Kojiro said they were thieves, then what's recorded here might not be true."

Xiaozhi said as he took out a small note from his pocket and handed it to Ziyu.

"Great, that's a great help."

Reaching out to take the note, Zi Yu nodded with satisfaction.

Regardless of whether the contact information recorded on this note was real or not, he at least had a breakthrough in his investigation.

Just at this moment, Zhulan's voice came from behind Zi Yu.

"Zi Yu? Didn't you say you would wait for me in the sanctuary? Why are you here?"

"Ah? You're back?"

Zi Yu casually put the note into his pocket and turned to look at Zhu Lan behind him.

"It just so happens that I've made some breakthroughs. But before that, I have something I want to ask you—about what happened last night."

"What happened...last...night?"

Zhulan's smile gradually stiffened.

Chapter 6: Zhulan's Self-Confession/Xiaozhi's Invitation to a Battle with Ziyu (k)

As soon as Zi Yu mentioned what happened last night, Zhu Lan naturally subconsciously thought of the story of Liliae and the "night butterfly".

But before that, Zhulan still retained a glimmer of hope in her heart.

What if Zi Yu's "last night's incident" wasn't what he imagined? Then wouldn't he have panicked for nothing?

It’s not a big problem. No matter what, Zi Yu would never mention such a shameful thing in front of so many people, right?

It's impossible. My disguise is flawless. It's impossible for Zi Yu to find my flaws, let alone suspect me directly.

Something must have happened in Zi Yu's room after I left last night.

However, Zhulan's chaotic thoughts came to a complete halt the moment Ziyu spoke again...

"The 'Liliae' who came to my room last night was you? Wasn't that right?"

"Ah this..."

Zi Yu's straightforward question hit the mark, and all of Zhu Lan's hopes turned into nothing.

"Um... what is Lillie? I don't know."

I have to admit that Zhulan is really not good at lying.

After being hit straight by Zi Yu, it took her almost five seconds to force a smile that was uglier than crying.

This not only failed to clear her suspicion, but made her look even more suspicious.

Zhulan herself was naturally aware of this, and she tried to remain calm and take the initiative in the conversation:

"I remember Lillie was supposed to be your friend, but isn't she still in Alola? Why did she suddenly appear here?"
