Route 17.
After walking all the way west from Yuhong City for three days, Xiaozhi and his party came to a forest after crossing a vast and long bicycle road.
Following the map's instructions, you can almost reach Qianhong City, where the Qianhong Gym is located, by walking through this forest.
It will also be where Ash gets his sixth badge.
"The harder, the more fortunate!"
"Pickup!"
Xiaozhi and Pikachu shouted on the spot to boost their morale, and pulled Xiaogang and Xiaoxia into the forest full of energy.
...
...
In the forest, the fog became a little thicker.
Not long after walking, Xiaozhi suddenly noticed that his Pikachu's ears twitched, and his little eyes looked towards a bush, hesitatingly.
"It can't be a bug, it looks very cool!"
Xiaoxia quickly hid behind the two tough men and complained.
Xiaozhi was the most courageous. He didn't even alert the snake, but stretched out his hand to push aside the bushes. The sight in front of them made the three of them stunned.
This is a deadwood tree hole. There is a little brown fox-like Pokémon lying in the tree hole. There is a rope tied around its neck and wrapped around the branch.
Next to it is a bowl of water and a bowl of dog food.
This is an Eevee.
"Wild Eevee?"
Xiaozhi was shocked to know that he was now carrying an Eevee.
"Buy?"
The Eevee in the tree hole was not afraid of life. He barked at the three of them and licked his tongue, making a milky sound.
"Someone should have kept them here..."
Xiaogang's eyes were sharp, and he soon noticed that there was a small sign hanging on Ibrahimovic's neck, with a series of addresses on it.
Room xx, No. xx, Ore Town.
"Ore Town...? It seems to be not far ahead."
Xiaogang pondered for a moment. After all, he was also a man with the will of rock. Ore Town was quite familiar to him.
This mineral town was said to be a desolate land in the past. Later, a young boy in jeans parachuted into the sky. He worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. Not only was he diligent in plowing the fields, but he even raised many Dudus, big milk cans, Meili sheep, etc. A livestock Pokémon, it often goes to the ore caves in the back mountains to mine and fish.
In less than a year, Ore Town became wealthy and assumed its present appearance.
It is said that the boy in jeans is no longer farming and herding, but is boringly mining the ore in the back mountain, and is having fun with the girls in the town.
The three of them couldn't bear to leave Eevee where he was, so they had to untie it and walked towards the direction of Ore Town.
...
Ore Town is located in the forest. As soon as you enter the town, the fog dissipates a lot, revealing the appearance of a scenic town. However, the square hall at the entrance of this town is very lively at the moment.
Looking around, many people gathered on the square lawn, with tables, chairs and food placed. It looked like a garden party.
"Look there!" Xiaogang suddenly said in surprise.
Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a blue upright tortoise with a vortex on its belly. Next to it was his trainer, who was placing a blue crystal-like stone on its belly. superior.
"rub..."
The blue tortoise's body spun around and evolved into a larger blue tortoise. However, the direction of the vortex on its belly was reversed at this moment, and its arms and limbs were bursting with muscles, as if they were on steroids, with an aggressive momentum.
"The mosquito-repellent frog evolved into a fast-swimming frog using the water stone?"
As an expert in the water attribute, Xiaoxia recognized the two elves and said, "Popular."
The three of them looked around and found that the Pokémon here were all Pokémon that could evolve using evolution stones, and there were even many places where evolution stones were being evolved.
Overlord flower, coconut egg tree, nine tails, spiny shell, etc...
There was also a cute Pikachu that evolved into a fat, dark-skinned Raichu after coming into contact with the Thunder Stone, which blinded the three of them.
"Don't look at it, you'll get needle eyes."
The three of them covered Pikachu's eyes at the same time.
...
In the center of the square, there were three young men with fancy hairstyles, and three Pokémon of different colors standing next to them.
The first man had yellow hedgehog hair, and next to him was also a yellow spiked Pokémon.
"Didi. Leib, the evolved form of Ibrahimovic, a crispy high-speed turret with a bit prickly hair."
The second man had a fiery red fluffy head, and next to him was a fiery red Pokémon with a yellow mane around his neck. The heat around his body was very high, and the air was a little distorted.
"Didi. Fire Eevee, the evolved form of Eevee, its existence itself is a joke."
The third man's hair style is slightly more normal, with long blue hair. The blue Pokémon next to him looks like a combination of fish and beast, elegant, noble, cute and mysterious.
"Didi. Water Eevee, the evolved form of Eevee, is of no use, but it looks pretty good and can be kept at home."
The illustrated book gave three pertinent comments in succession, and the words were shocking and attracted the attention of many passers-by.
When the three men with fancy hairstyles saw the Ibrahimovic in Xiaoxia's hand, their eyes suddenly lit up and they hurried over.
"Great, I thought Ibrahimovic was missing!"
"Good job, reward!"
"We're still going to some summer camp. Go and call Taiyi over."
The three men said happily.
After some explanation, Xiaozhi realized that these three people were three brothers, a wealthy family in Ore Town. Their ancestors made their fortune by mining evolutionary stones, and they were also the organizers of this garden party.
The three of them also have a younger brother named Taiyi who is in the fifth grade of elementary school. Today's garden party is held to celebrate Taiyi's first battle.
But yesterday Taiyi suddenly said that his Ibrahimovic was missing, so he was going to attend the summer camp held by the school today. The three of them were still distressed, but they didn't expect that Ibrahimovic was back again.
After a while, a handsome little boy with slightly curly brown hair came over. He looked at his Ibrahimovic with a rather moved expression, but soon dimmed again. He reluctantly took the Ibrahimovic from Xiaoxia's hand. .
But he didn't look good to Xiaozhi and the others.
"Okay, okay, now that Ibrahimovic is back, the event will be held as usual. I will put away your summer camp goggles and binoculars first."
The fried-haired brother smiled and patted his younger brother, then looked at Xiaozhi and his group with a happy face, and the first thing he noticed was Pikachu on his shoulder.
"Oh~ This is also a Pokémon that can evolve with evolution stones. All the evolution stones are free today. You can use them as you like. You are my brother's benefactor. I will pick out the largest thunder stone for you. I will definitely give it to you. Your electric rat evolves into a white and fat Raichu."
Pikachu: "?"
Am I your benefactor or your enemy?
Xiaozhi quickly waved his hand and decisively refused:
"That's not necessary, just pack the evolution stone."
In his backpack, he currently has a thunder stone that the lightning bird uses as an egg and has been sitting on his crotch, attracting the essence of the sun and moon. The quality is naturally much higher than these Muggle thunder stones.
But evolve into Raichu?
Xiaozhi and Pikachu both said they would do it next time.
"What, Pokémon naturally has to evolve to be powerful. The sooner it evolves, the stronger it will be. Look at my Leib. I evolved it into Leib as soon as it was born from the egg. You know what it is now? How strong is it?"
The big brother with explosive hair patted his chest. This gesture really frightened Xiaozhi, and he waited expectantly for the next step.
“I relied on it to reach the top 64 at the Quartz Conference last year!!”
The words came out, everyone was shocked!
