The two of them wanted to continue chatting in depth.
"Doctor, the...newcomer trainer who made an appointment today is here."
A female assistant next to him suddenly interrupted.
"Ah! I forgot about it! Sorry, Xiaozhi, I have to take care of the newcomer first..."
Dr. Yew immediately stood up and looked at Xiaozhi with some embarrassment.
Her research institute is also responsible for giving away starter Pokémon to new trainers.
"A new trainer..."
When mentioning this, Xiaozhi felt quite nostalgic. This was how he received Pikachu.
Coincidentally, he had only seen the second-stage Pokémon of the Hezhong region, Dual Maru, so he also stood up:
"Um...can I watch it from the side?"
"No problem at all!"
Yew Shan was worried about how to entertain Xiao Zhi. Since the latter had an idea of his own, he quickly agreed and the two of them soon came to another hall side by side.
At this moment, a young trainer was standing at the door.
He is similar in age to Xiaozhi, but his face looks quite mature, with short gray-green hair hanging down, and he is wearing an orange jacket and beige trousers.
Katcha! Katcha!
While he was staying there alone, he still held a camera in his hand and took pictures of the buildings of the institute.
The trainers in the Hezhong area are much older than those in Zhenxin Town. They usually only officially receive the initial Pokémon when they are 12 years old and start traveling.
Seeing Dr. Yew approaching, the young man quickly bent down to signal and introduced himself:
"Hello, Dr. Yew, my name is Emperor Xiu, and I'm here to receive the starter Pokémon."
"Emperor Xiu~ don't be formal, we are all old acquaintances~"
Dr. Yew smiled and waved his hand.
Emperor Xiu was a resident of Luzi Town. The two of them had met several times and were not strangers.
"Hello~ My name is Xiaozhi, and I come from Shinshin Town in the Kanto region! Can you take a look at these starter Pokémon?"
Xiaozhi said hello cheerfully.
"True New Town? Kanto Region?"
Emperor Xiu raised his eyebrows, and raised his questioning tone twice in a row, without hiding any disdain. It sounded like it was some unfashionable country place.
But since Dr. Yew was here, he couldn't say it directly. He just hummed and didn't refuse.
Xiaozhi laughed dryly, but he wasn't too angry.
Looks like another Shinji?
"Wait a minute, is this the electric rat from the Kanto region?"
But soon, Emperor Xiu's attention was attracted by Pikachu at Xiaozhi's feet. While looking at it curiously, he quickly took out his camera and kept taking pictures.
"Um, is Pikachu some kind of rare Pokémon...?"
The other party looked startled, and Xiaozhi was confused.
According to the illustrated guide, Pikachu is a Pokémon that is as numerous as wild dogs on the streets.
"Because in the Unova region, foreign Pokémon rarely appear... Not only Pikachu, but other foreign Pokémon are also very rare."
Dr. Yew explained with a smile.
Xiaozhi nodded and then remembered what the Hezhong local next to him mentioned when he was on a plane.
But isn’t Hezhong an open and free place? This is somewhat contradictory...
...
"Without further ado, it's time for you to choose, Emperor Xiu~!"
Soon, Yew took out two elf balls and opened them.
boom!
boom!
Following two red lights, a red and black piglet appeared in front of several people, with its nose still spitting out spark smoke from time to time.
Next to it was a small green snake with a three-forked leaf tail on its tail, short limbs on its abdomen, and its eyes half-suspended. It looked like a rather arrogant Pokémon.
"These two Pokémon are..."
Xiaozhi subconsciously took out the illustrated book, and then realized that his Rotom illustrated book was down, so he had to put it back.
In Dr. Yew's hand, there was a new illustrated book for the Hezhong region, which he aimed at two Pokémon in turn.
"Dip. Nuannuan Pig, with fire attributes, is one of the three original royal families in the Hezhong area. He can blow flames from his nose, but when he feels bad, he can only blow out black smoke."
"Dip. The Vine Snake has a grass attribute and is one of the three original royal families in the Hezhong region. It always remains calm and is not shaken by anything. It uses the leaves on its tail to photosynthesize to generate energy."
The illustrated guide suggested.
Emperor Xiu was already familiar with the signature Pokémon in his region and was not too surprised.
He just took out his camera and took photos of the two Pokémon.
Although his goal is to become the strongest trainer...at the same time, Xiudi is also very interested in filming.
No matter what kind of scene we face, we will always record it with photos.
"Ah..."
However, seeing Xiaozhi next to him nodding in surprise and looking like he had never seen the world, Emperor Xiu just sneered.
He is indeed a bumpkin from the countryside.
Ash's attention was focused on the two new Pokémon. Sure enough, the initial Pokémon in each region had their own characteristics!
He was not interested in Emperor Xiu, and naturally he would not pay attention to the latter's expression.
"By the way, why are there only two?"
Xiaozhi couldn't help but ask, there should be another water-type one, the degraded form of Kuroji's Double-edged Maru, right?
"Um, I'm sorry, Emperor Xiu. The new trainer in Hinoken City next door has chosen her starting Pokémon one day before you. The otter has already been sent over."
Yew said somewhat helplessly.
This is just like when Xiaozhi first received Pokémon, the three Poké Balls on the stage were all empty...
First come, first served, this is the first reality that new trainers will inevitably face when they go on the road.
How can there be so many opportunities for you to choose a starting Pokémon at will?
Emperor Xiu's expression did not change upon hearing this, and he had no intention of choosing the water otter.
"Hinoki City?"
However, Xiaozhi next to him raised his eyebrows. Isn't Huashan City the city where Mingyi is located?
The latter is also going to be on the road recently, and the time is just right... Does this mean that the initial Pokémon chosen by Mingyi is a water otter?
He had already become quite interested in his companion, whom he had yet to meet.
As for Emperor Xiu, his eyes fell on the two Pokémon in front of him.
"Lu~!"
Nuan Nuan Zhu was looking at Emperor Xiu eagerly, with a look of anticipation on his face.
The Vine Snake is completely different. It turns sideways, looking like it doesn't want to choose.
"I have decided, choose Vine Snake."
And Emperor Xiu already had the answer in his heart, and without much hesitation, he said in a deep voice.
This shocked the Nuannuan pig immediately, and he lay weakly on the ground.
"Vine~"
Vine Snake glanced at the stupid pig, as if mocking him, and then walked slowly to Emperor Xiu's side, acknowledging the latter's gaze.
