Chapter 228 You'll get used to it!
In the afternoon, as Zi, the woman with the mansion, took Xiaoyao to the musical theater to enjoy the performance, and Fenglu, that good-for-nothing, went to look for Xiaojuer, Xiamu finally had a long-awaited moment to enjoy himself.
"Ah, this is life!"
Lying on a lounge chair in the backyard, Xia Mu leisurely swayed her body, basking in the warm sunshine, and glancing at the cats and Pokémon not far away. A relaxed smile appeared on Xia Mu's face.
With the help of the doll, he finally understood why Joyce was being so gentle today.
Although Qiao Yimiao was very angry about Xia Mu's messy behavior outside, after seeing Xia Mu, she felt like she was seeing her child who was studying away from home come home for the New Year, and couldn't help but start to treat him well.
Knowing that this feeling couldn't last, Xia Mu immediately began to enjoy this kind of life.
"Roar!"
After taking a bite of the watermelon that Qiao Yimiao had just brought over, Xia Mu began to introduce his new companion to Qiao Yimiao.
A brute blacksmith, a graceful sea lion dancer, and an unnamed sprite that is currently still an egg.
"Hello everyone, I'm A-Miao, nice to meet you all!"
Nurse Joy seems to have an approachable quality that can quickly connect with Pokémon. Not to mention, the little ones had heard stories about their encounters with Natsuki from other Pokémon like Meowth.
Therefore, those who knew about Joey's amazing fighting skills were all very well-behaved.
As Nurse Joy gently stroked the heads of her well-behaved Pokémon, she asked Natsuki with a question, "Isn't it a bit much to only have six Pokémon to participate in the Higanbana Conference?"
As is widely known, the League Conference is the biggest event of the year in every region.
Therefore, the number of trainers participating far exceeds that of the Junior Cup that Xia Mu had previously participated in. In the successive battles, not to mention that the unchanged Pokémon lineup makes it easy for others to target them.
To put it simply, in high-intensity battles, Natsuki's Pokémon could very well be nearing their limit before the tournament ends.
It's important to understand that healing a Pokémon isn't a simple matter. Besides physical injuries, the Pokémon's mental fatigue and accumulated muscle fatigue can make it vulnerable.
And Xia Mu was naturally aware of this as well.
"There's still some time before the Hinoki Tournament starts. In the meantime, I plan to go to the Padia region for Tai Crystal training. One reason is to obtain Tai Crystal Beads, and the other is to improve my team composition."
Natsuki knew perfectly well that his current Pokémon roster was not enough to win the Higanbana Tournament.
After all, every tournament has trainers from other regions participating, and compared to those trainers who have had tournament experience in other regions, Xia Mu's experience is still too limited.
The Grass-type cat and snake are doing well. They received a gift from Virizion, and their energy level and battle strength have increased by leaps and bounds. Currently, their levels are approaching 50.
It's safe to say that Xia Mu wouldn't be surprised if they evolved immediately after sneezing.
And the clay giant and the master blacksmith are even more obvious examples.
Although the Clay Golem's level increase has slowed down considerably during this period, it has still reached an energy level of 68. More importantly, although the Clay Golem's level is slow, it is still increasing at a steady pace.
While the Blacksmith didn't have the same extraordinary encounters as the Cat and Snake, nor was she as unreasonable as the Clay Doll, her immense strength allowed her to unleash explosive damage far exceeding her level.
Not to mention, from the satisfied look the skilled blacksmith occasionally gave his hammer during this period, Xia Mu knew that the skilled blacksmith was not far from evolving into a great blacksmith.
Once evolved into Greatsmith, Skillful Blacksmith's Strength will increase again. With the Mold Breaker ability, she will undoubtedly be the team's strongest single-hit damage dealer. This doesn't even take into account that Skillful Blacksmith also has the ability to use the exaggerated move Maximus after evolving, which has a power of up to 160 in the game.
However, compared to these supermodel Pokémon or those with their own unique adventures, Floppy and the unhatched Pokémon seem a bit more troublesome.
Although both Pokémon are very talented and level up quickly with proper nutrition, they will probably only be around level 30 or 40 when they participate in the tournament, having just evolved to their final stage.
While they can't be called useless, it would be a stretch to get them to fight one after another.
Therefore, Xia Mu continued to recruit some immediate combat personnel to serve as his reinforcements in the tournament.
At this moment, Xia Mu immediately thought of his two suits of armor.
Armor of Celebration and Armor of Spells.
The Pokémon Samurai can use this item to successfully evolve into the formidable Crimson Knight and Azurewrath.
Not to mention that his armor once received the blessing of the God of Dreams and the curse of the God of Nightmares, and the superpower energy and ghost-type energy contained within it will definitely give Tanjiro a lot of benefits during his evolution.
Thinking of how rapidly the strength of Neko and Snake Sister had increased thanks to the gift from Virizion, Natsuki smiled smugly.
"I'm incredibly lucky! Forget about the Hinoki Tournament, I might even beat Alice in the Championship Challenge after winning the tournament and become the new Unova Champion!"
Joey Miao: ".—"
Qiao Yimiao didn't know why Xia Mu always looked so confident.
Since the League was founded, it has held a tournament every year. However, in the challenge matches that follow the tournament, let alone winning a championship, there are very few trainers who can even defeat an Elite Four member.
Therefore, Qiao Yimiao took this sentence as Xia Mu having another episode.
After taking a bite of the icy-cold Häagen-Dazs, Joy looked at Xia Mu with a gentle gaze.
This guy's brain is still not working properly!
But who can stop someone from dreaming?
"Okay, good luck!"
Xia Mu glanced at Qiao Yimiao speechlessly.
"Seriously? You actually believe that?"
Xia Mu felt that unless Arceus suddenly descended and gave him a large amount of golden crowns and magical candies, he would never dare to dream of winning the championship in the exhibition match after the tournament.
Although energy level does not represent combat power, Iris, as the genius champion of the Unova region, has a Pokémon that is trained in terms of bond and other aspects.
Therefore, even though her experience was relatively weak compared to other champions and her team consisted mostly of Dragon-type Pokémon, she was still not an opponent that Natsuki could defeat in a short period of time.
Therefore, Xia Mu looked at Qiao Yimiao with an expression as if she were an idiot.
"You don't know how difficult it is to be a trainer unless you're one yourself."
"Clang! Clang!"
The response to Xia Mu was Qiao Yimiao's large hand.
With her slender, bony fingers gripping Xia Mu's head as if she were holding a basketball, Qiao Yimiao's slender fingers slammed down on Xia Mu's head. As the skull groaned in pain, Xia Mu, driven by his suicidal instincts, finally remembered Qiao Yimiao's terrifying fighting prowess.
boom!
Just like when Joey caught her stealing Häagen-Dazs, Xia Mu was once again thrown into the backyard pond by A-Miao like a rag.
Drizzling!
After the splashing water fell like rain, Xia Mu floated up from the water, belly up.
"Flowers?"
The colorful sea lions playing in the pool raised their heads in fright.
Why does this Joey look different from the ones I've seen before?
The trainer is dead?!
In situations like these, the experienced ones have more expertise.
While using one vine whip to comfort the flower-like sea lion, the Green Vine Snake used another vine whip to scoop Xia Mu out of the pool. Then, the Green Vine Snake skillfully hung Xia Mu on a tree trunk by the pool, just like drying clothes.
"despair!"
The Green Vine Snake nodded in satisfaction, while Tire Cat nimbly climbed up the big tree and began poking Xia Mu's face with her fingers.
The two little ones were no strangers to this situation.
It's important to know that Raven City is one of the major cities in Unova, so there are quite a few Miss Joy working there.
Why is Natsuki only close to Nurse Joy at the Pokémon Center in Raven City?
On one hand, it's because Officer Jenny and Joy are familiar with each other, and on the other hand, the gentle Joy simply can't stop Natsuki from being a jerk.
When Natsuki was first sent to the Pokémon Center, he was a complete troublemaker. Taking advantage of his lack of knowledge about the Pokémon world, Natsuki used amnesia as an excuse to swagger around the Pokémon Center and do whatever he wanted.
He teases Joey here, plays with the Coin Toy there, and occasionally sticks his head into Chansey's little pocket to rummage for things.
It can be said that the Pokémon Center at that time was completely under Natsuki's control, and the Dark-type seedling Meowth was attracted by Natsuki's fearless attitude and eventually became Natsuki's henchman.
One day, Nurse Joy, who had been providing assistance at treatment centers in nearby villages and towns, returned to the Pokémon Center.
On that day, Natsuki, who was trying to flirt with Izumi, saw hell.
On that very day, all of Joey's friends decided to entrust Xia Mu to Joey Miao's care.
From that day on, Xia Mu would frequently anger Qiao Yimiao, only to be grabbed and instantly refined by her.
As a result, it became an instinct for the Green Vine Snake to expose Xia Mu to the sun on the tree. At those times, the cat, who escaped the ordeal because of its cute appearance, would lie on the tree and gaze at Xia Mu with its big eyes, waiting for Xia Mu to revive and lead it to cause trouble again.
"despair!"
So you'll get used to it!
Snake provided an explanation for Pokémon such as Sprite.
