In the Chengdu area, on the easternmost grassland.
It's vast, the breeze blows, and the grass blades at your feet are swaying.
Xiaozhi and his party have bypassed the Quartz Plateau and Silver Mountain and officially arrived in the new area.
The map interface on the illustrated book is also very user-friendly and automatically switches to a brand new map, and their location is at the southeastern end of the map.
"Going a little further west is Route 0, and then Ruoye Town..."
Several people were confirming that they were not going the wrong way, with a bit of novelty flashing in their eyes, and they quickly moved on.
Along the way, we can already see many Pokémon that we have never seen in the Kanto region.
Green little spiders crawled on the grass, and from time to time, a few red-shelled black-spotted ladybugs flew around them, as well as a brown elk with big horns... everything seemed so fresh.
...
Route 0.
After passing through the vast grassland, several people came to a jungle.
Looking into the distance, he could already see a corner of the town in the distance. Xiaozhi didn't think much and pulled the two of them into the jungle.
"call out..."
Less than a hundred meters into this small jungle, the fog suddenly thickened and the visibility dropped sharply. I could only barely make out the surrounding scenery a few meters away.
"Didi. The direction is right."
The illustrated guide suggested.
With the upgraded version of the illustrated guide, it doesn't matter if you lose your direction. The expressions of the few people did not change and they continued to delve deeper.
After a while, a clear pool appeared in front of several people.
The area is not too big, just a small pool five or six meters wide. The water is clear and sparkling, and it is surrounded by sparse shrubs and trees.
A faint mist rose from the water, and the three of them stopped and took a deep breath subconsciously.
"call..."
The air is fresh and of extremely high quality, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
It was obviously surrounded by rich water vapor, but there was not much humidity and heat, and instead it seemed very refreshing.
...
"Pickup!"
At this time, Pikachu suddenly twitched its ears and jumped off Ash's shoulder.
It rushed to the front of the pool with a serious head, and several electric currents were even accumulating on its cheeks as if to attack.
"?"
The three of them also subconsciously looked in the direction of Pikachu.
When he caught his eye, he didn't know when a blue beast-shaped shadow was already standing on the other side of the pool.
The medium-sized body appears to be extremely well-proportioned, and the specific appearance cannot be seen. The body is completely composed of glowing blue energy, which looks very mysterious.
There is also a pair of light red eyes exposed on the head, as graceful and noble as gems.
"Is it a Pokémon?"
"A Pokémon whose entire body is made of fuzzy energy?"
Several people were stunned. They had never seen such a Pokémon before.
"Is this a Pokémon from the Johto region..."
Xiaozhi was the first to react. It was mysterious, but he quickly said loudly with muscle memory:
"I am Xiaozhi from Zhenxin Town, fight with me!"
Opening your mouth is declaring war, no matter whether you are mysterious or not.
"Pickup..."
Pikachu also understood the situation and got down on all fours, baring his teeth in a threatening manner, as if he was attacking.
...
The Pokémon finally noticed a few people and turned its head.
But there seemed to be little interest in those pale red eyes, as if they were about to leave.
"..."
Just when this Pokémon was about to leave, it suddenly noticed something and looked straight at Xiaozhi at the front.
Why does this human being smell like that person...?
"call out..."
The next moment, the surrounding fog dissipated, visibility increased, and the vague energy covering the Pokémon also dissipated, completely exposing its body.
It has a blue animal-shaped body, a slender and well-proportioned body, and a few white spots on its back.
There is a blue diamond-shaped crystal headdress standing on the head, and behind it is a bunch of purple hair like flowing clouds. There is even a white ribbon surrounding the body, dancing in the wind.
"so beautiful..."
Several people couldn't help blurting out at the same time.
Even Xiaoxia had difficulty breathing on the spot, and there was only obsession in her eyes. This was definitely the most noble and beautiful Pokémon she had ever seen.
The fresh smell of water surrounding her made her certain that this must be a water-type Pokémon.
"Didi. Suicune, the legendary Pokémon, the god of environmental protection, the incarnation of the legendary north wind, has the mysterious power to purify water."
In his pocket, the illustrated guide gave timely reminders.
"Suicune?"
Xiaozhi read it again. Not only did they look noble, but their names were also noble.
Is it still a legendary Pokémon?
"Suicune, fight with me!"
Xiaozhi focused his gaze and stood next to Pikachu, his eyes extremely fiery.
It would be exciting to think about if his first battle in the Johto region was against a legendary Pokémon!
...
"Ouch~Wu!!"
However, Suicune just turned his head again, looking up to the sky and roaring.
A wolf-like roar echoed in the jungle, with a powerful and noble sense of oppression in the voice that made people dare not be careless.
"clatter..."
Immediately, Suicune took a step forward on his own, and his limbs landed on the water, as if they were stepping on flat ground.
Just treading water step by step, he walked straight to Xiaozhi.
Even though Suicune was on all fours, his body height was almost higher than that of Xiaozhi. He was approaching step by step, and his powerful momentum made Xiaozhi even take a step back.
But Suicune was still approaching, and within a moment, the distance between the two was less than one meter.
Xiaozhi: "..."
He swallowed, mustering up the courage to face it, not knowing what Suicune was going to do.
I'm talking about Pokémon battles. You should be keeping an eye on Pikachu, not me!
However, Suicune just took a deep look at Xiaozhi, suddenly turned his head, stepped on the ground, and swept towards the depths of the jungle next to him.
In less than a moment, he completely disappeared.
It ran away.
Xiaozhi: "?"
He froze on the spot with a confused look on his face.
In his pocket, the illustrated book was afraid that Xiaozhi wouldn't know what was going on, so he reminded him again in a very humane way:
"Didi. Suicune escaped."
Xiaozhi: "..."
...
...
Outside the mist jungle.
The town can be seen in the distance ahead.
"Didi. There are three legendary Pokémon in the Johto area, namely Suicune, Entei, and Raikou..."
"And two more noble gods and powers, the God of Life, Ho-Oh, and the former Poseidon, Lugia."
The three of them were gathered around a flat lawn. This was their last rest before entering the city.
The illustrated guide is to educate the group about local legendary Pokémon.
After all, Xiaozhi not only has to fight in his own gym alliance, but also helps Brother Chi find these legendary Pokémon, complete trials, and obtain God's tokens, which can be used to create a new body for Brother Chi.
Pictures of gods flashed across the full screen of the illustrated book, but the clarity was ridiculously poor, as if they were taken with a brick.
After all, gods are like dragons, so how could they be so easily recorded in photos by humans?
"Sure enough, the Pokémon I met on the first day of my trip was Ho-oh...I've also seen Lugia..."
Xiaozhi nodded and thought secretly.
The label of this former Poseidon was outrageous. He thought it was just a joke from the Orange Islands, but he didn't expect that even the official data now had Lugia expelled from Poseidon.
He was more curious about whether the current volcano god would get two salaries.
"Except for Suicune, who met the other three just once, I have never seen the other two..."
Xiaozhi looked at the three beast-type Pokémon on the screen. They were all extremely domineering and majestic, and they looked extremely powerful.
Thinking of this, he secretly made up his mind.
"In the Johto area, I must conquer one of these three!"
