Two days later, Bai Feng arranged things at home, took his Pokémon, and set off with Bai Ye carrying his space backpack.
Two years of growth have made Bai Ye's character much calmer. When he stood there motionless, a demure temperament radiated from the inside out, which was really beautiful.
On the plane heading to Miare City, Bai Feng noticed that many people were peeking at his mother, and he felt very troubled and angry.
Really, it's useless for a bunch of old perverts to stare down. Thinking this, Bai Feng turned sideways and blocked Bai Ye slightly with his body.
Some of them were so blatant that it took Bai Feng to give them a hard glare before they would restrain themselves.
Bai Ye has noticed this a long time ago. Every time Bai Feng glares, he will cover his mouth and snicker.
When they arrived in Miare City, Bai Feng came to the central square to wait for Fradali as agreed.
Compared with more than two years ago, the city of Miare today is more modern, with modern high-rise buildings standing everywhere, and electronic billboards of various sizes hanging on the buildings.
These billboards play various advertisements back and forth, among which the information communication bracelet developed by Fradali Company is the most popular. Fradali's face in the advertisement is almost a visual bombardment to the pedestrians on the street. .
If it weren't for the extra money, I wouldn't be able to afford the publicity fee.
There are also a large number of promotional advertisements for Karuna's new movie and various product endorsement advertisements.
In addition, the flow of people in Miare City is also greater than before, and trainers or tourists from other regions with Pokémon can be seen everywhere on the streets.
As the largest city in the Kalos region, Miare City is moving steadily toward becoming a modern metropolis in the Pokémon world.
Bai Feng sat on a bench on the street and waited quietly for Fradali. Not far away, a street performer was singing. Bai Feng thought his singing was very nice, so he released the Huayang Sea Lion.
Unexpectedly, Huayang Sea Lion would go to someone else's house and want to sing with them.
The artist had a very easy-going personality and readily agreed to Huayang Sea Lion's request. After the song ended, the man was very surprised because he turned out to be a fan of the Huayang Sea Lion Band.
The real appearance of Huayang Sea Lion is a little different from the one in the live broadcast room and videos. It looks better in reality, so the fan did not recognize Huayang Sea Lion at first.
But as soon as Huayang Sea Lion opened his mouth, he recognized him instantly.
I have to say, this world is really small.
Bai Feng saw the Huayang sea lion happily performing with fans on the street, so he didn't care about it anymore.
Later, the chorus of Huayang Sea Lion and fans was captured in a video by passers-by and posted online, making Huayang Sea Lion popular on a small scale, and its number of fans on the live broadcast platform increased a lot.
Of course, this is all a thing for later. At this moment, Huayang Sea Lion doesn’t know anything and is selflessly performing for passers-by with fans.
There is a grassland not far from Bai Feng, and a group of children are having a Pokémon battle on it. They should have made the simple battle field by themselves.
One of the children's Pokémon was a long-tailed fox. He was probably the strongest among the children. After a battle, several children were defeated by him one after another. For a time, he felt a sense of accomplishment and confidence. Heart bursting.
Bai Feng originally just watched the battle between those children out of boredom, but this behavior seemed to be misunderstood by the other party.
The trainer of the long-tailed fire fox frowned for a moment when he saw that his companions were unwilling to practice with him anymore. At this moment, he noticed Bai Feng.
"Hello!"
The child yelled.
Bai Feng didn't even realize that the other party was calling him, and was still waiting stupidly for their next game to start.
The child yelled again.
"Hey, that one over there is the one wearing blue clothes sitting on the bench!"
Now Bai Feng finally realized that the other person might be talking to him, because he was the only one sitting on the bench nearby, and he happened to be wearing a blue shirt.
Bai Feng pointed at himself, meaning: Are you talking to me?
"Yes, it's you! Do you want to have a Pokémon battle with me? I see you have been staring at us for a long time!" the trainer of the long-tailed fox shouted.
"Yes, yes, come on. If you want to participate, just come!" Other friends were also cheering.
Bai Feng subconsciously planned to refuse, but when he thought about it, Fradali didn't come, so what does it matter for playing?
So Bai Feng stood up and walked over with Bai Ye.
When the children saw this, they made a fuss and gave up their fighting position to Bai Feng.
However, although Bai Feng calls him a kid, he is actually about the same age as other people. A group of children are all around thirteen or fourteen years old.
He is mixed in there and is an old cucumber painted green to pretend to be young.
After the two stood on both sides of the battle field, the boy opposite introduced himself: "My name is Hoshino, and this is my Pokémon Long-tailed Fox."
After thinking about it, Hoshino took out another elf ball and said, "This elf ball is just a bet. If you beat me, it will be yours."
Bai Feng:. . .
Well, as a bet for a street battle, a Poké Ball is indeed enough, at least it costs a few hundred dollars.
Bai Feng dug out his space backpack, and finally took out a few berries and said, "These are B-level berries. If you beat me, these berries will be yours."
A few B-level tree fruits are worth the same as Poke Balls.
Hoshino was indeed very happy to hear this and nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, my name is Bai Feng, and my Pokémon is Jucaoye." At this time, Bai Feng took out Jucaoye's Poke Ball and said again.
With a flash of red light, chrysanthemum leaves appeared on the grass.
"How can it be done~ How can it be done~"
Jucaoye declared war on the opponent's long-tailed fire fox full of fighting spirit.
However, Hoshino was dumbfounded after seeing the chrysanthemum leaf. "You mean to use this chrysanthemum leaf to fight me, not the Gardevoir over there?" He pointed at Baiye and said.
Bai Feng:. . .
"Can't chrysanthemum leaves be used?"
"Are you looking down on me?" Hoshino said with a blushing face.
Bai Feng looked innocent and said: "How come, I'm serious?"
"Then you still..." No matter how you look at it, it's impossible for that Chrysanthemum Grass Leaf to win over the long-tailed fire fox!
Primary form versus secondary form.
Grass type versus fire type.
How to fight this?
Bai Feng: No matter how you look at it, your long-tailed fire fox can't beat my Bai Ye!
"Oh, oh~ you are thinking too much. I just want my Chrysanthemum Leaf to exercise more. When it loses, I will let Gardevoir take over!"
Bai Feng didn't want to waste time getting into a dispute with the kid, so he just followed his wishes.
I'm not disrespecting you, I'm just exercising my Pokémon.
Hearing Bai Feng's words, Hoshino's expression improved. Okay, since it's to train the newly conquered Pokémon, I won't care.
As a trainer, Hoshino knows very well that every time he captures a new Pokémon, he can't help but want to send it out a few more times.
╰(‵□′)╯Chrysanthemum grass leaf seemed to hear Hoshino’s dissatisfaction with her appearance. She glared angrily at the opponent and vowed to make the opponent look good.
"Then... let's get started!"
Then the two Pokémon walked to the center of the field.
"Long-tailed fire fox, say hello with sparks and chrysanthemum leaves!" Hoshino said confidently.
"Hey~"
The long-tailed fire fox held a wooden stick, and with a slight shake, a ball of fire appeared on the top of the stick.
"Hey~"
The long-tailed fire fox casually pointed with the wooden stick, and the fireball flew towards the chrysanthemum leaves.
"How can it be done~ How can it be done~ How can it be done~"
Seeing that the opponent finally started to attack, Ju Caoye shouted excitedly, "Watch my performance!"
It stamped its little feet on the ground, and a huge green leaf turned into a blade and was thrown away by it.
There was just a puff, and the long-tailed fire fox's fireball was split into two by the blade, and then turned into tiny flames and dissipated in the air.
Hoshino looked surprised, then smiled and said: "It seems that your chrysanthemum leaf does have some strength."
When Jucaoye heard Hoshino say that she only had some strength, she felt very dissatisfied. She stamped her little foot and ran out quickly.
As the chrysanthemum leaves started to run, circles of green ripples appeared under its feet, and then the grass in the ripple circles began to grow rapidly.
Hoshino was a little shocked when he saw this. He didn't expect that this humble-looking chrysanthemum leaf could even play on the grass field.
"Long-tailed Fire Fox, use Flame Vortex!" Hoshino shouted.
"Hey there~hey there~"
The long-tailed fire fox waved its wooden stick, as if casting magic, and circles of flames appeared around it, then turned into fire snakes and rushed towards the chrysanthemum leaves.
But Chrysanthemum Grass Leaf was not afraid at all. Even if the flames almost burned its butt, it was not in a hurry and continued to run at a constant speed in the green grass field.
Of course, although the flame seemed to be almost burning the chrysanthemum leaves every time, it was always just a little bit worse.
Outside the field, the friends of Hoshino were cheering for him and Long-tailed Firefox. However, at this time, Long-tailed Firefox was anxious because he could not hit the chrysanthemum grass leaves.
Because there is a grassy field to replenish stamina from time to time, Jucaoye ran for most of the day without losing breath. I have to say that the grass-type Pokémon has really strong stamina.
"Huh? What kind of fragrance?" At this time, Hoshino suddenly shrugged his nose and asked doubtfully.
Not only Hoshino smelled it, but his friends outside the court also smelled it.
At this time, one of the girls suddenly shouted: "Hoshino, it's sweet fragrance, that chrysanthemum leaf uses sweet fragrance!"
After hearing this, Hoshino suddenly realized.
But at this time, the long-tailed firefox in the center of the field was already in a trance under the influence of the sweet fragrance, and it started to stagger when walking.
So delicious! It smells so good!
The long-tailed fire fox even felt that he was hallucinating before his eyes. Why did the chrysanthemum leaves suddenly become so numerous?
The sweet aroma is a skill that Jucaoye suddenly realized. Probably because it is too talented, its sweet aroma is somewhat different from that emitted by other grass-type Pokémon.
The sweet scent of other Pokémon will at most slow down the opponent's reaction speed, thereby weakening their dodge ability.
However, the sweet aroma of chrysanthemum leaves is too strong and overbearing. As long as you smell it a little too much, the Pokémon will gradually become trance-like and unable to control its actions.
The weaker the Pokémon, the less resistant it is to this scent.
Sure enough, after a while, the long-tailed fire fox fell to his knees and could no longer fight.
"咻咻咻~~~"
Jucaoye fired several flying blades in succession, knocking out the long-tailed fire fox.
"I...my long-tailed fire fox actually...lost...to a chrysanthemum leaf..." Hoshino said in disbelief.
Bang bang bang...
At this moment, there was a burst of applause. Bai Feng followed the sound and saw that Fradali had arrived at some point.
"Wow~ It's Mr. Fradali~" At this time, some children couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.
There was no way, Fradali's big picture was flashing back and forth on the electronic display screen opposite, and the children couldn't recognize him even if they didn't want to.
"When did you come, and you didn't even call me!" Bai Feng asked after putting away the chrysanthemum leaves.
"You are fighting, of course I am embarrassed to disturb you." Fradali said with a smile.
Of course, the most surprised person was Hoshino. He didn't expect that he could pull someone who knew Mr. Fradali by randomly dragging someone over to fight on the side of the road.
This is incredible.
"Now that you're here, let's go." Bai Feng said to Fradali.
"Okay, my car is parked not far away." Fradali said and pointed in a direction.
Bai Feng looked in that direction and saw a luxurious black car.
Before leaving, Bai Feng said to Hoshino: "Hoshino, our battle ends here!"
"Ah? Oh oh..." Hoshino responded stupidly, but after a while he ran to Bai Feng again and handed him the elf ball in his hand, "Your trophy!"
Although a Poké Ball may not mean much to Mr. Fradali’s friends, a promise is a promise!
Bai Feng patted his head and said, "It's true, I almost forgot."
Taking the elf ball handed over by Hoshino, Bai Feng also handed him the fruit in his hand.
"This is for you."
Hoshino hesitated: "But...but I lost..."
Bai Feng put the fruit into his hand and said, "It's not a bet for the game, it's a gift from me."
"Thank you... thank you." Hoshino accepted the fruit.
Just at this time, the Huayang sea lion came back from playing, and Bai Feng took it, Bai Ye, and Fradali by car and left the central square.
But what Bai Feng didn't know was that while he was fighting Hoshino, in an electrical repair shop across the square, a burly bearded uncle was standing at the door looking at him from a distance.
After Jucaoye won the game, he returned to the shop and continued working at the call of an electric dragon.
————
Bai Feng took Fradali's car to his residence in Miare City, where a private aircraft was parked on the lawn.
Today Bai Feng and Vladali will take this aircraft to the Galar region.
Bai Feng sat at Vladali's house for a while, then boarded the aircraft with him and started setting off.
The destination of Bai Feng's trip was Gongmen City in the Galar region, where the auction was held.
