A battle information panel pops up in the upper left corner of the screen, and the battle officially begins!
"Charmander! Get close by with a cry, then use your claw!"
Chi Hong pulled his baseball cap brim down low with his backhand, his eyes burning with fighting spirit, and passionately directed the battle into the microphone.
The little dragon on the screen opened its little mouth and cried out, raising its claws that shimmered with a faint light, and wobbled towards Squirtle on its short legs.
Low-level battles are indeed not very entertaining, and the scenes were sometimes quite comical.
Qinglu, on the other hand, was more concerned about the information panel, from which he could glean a lot of information.
"Using levels to quantify training progress... and even noting abilities and moves? Bai Zhou's Pokémon knowledge is truly impressive..."
He couldn't help but complain when he recalled Bai Zhou's handsome face, which always had a slightly sarcastic expression.
"He still won't admit he's a seasoned breeder... really... I almost fell for his act."
At that moment, a sudden change occurred.
Xiao Lü calmly gave instructions.
"Little Green: Squirtle, ram!!"
Squirtle's attack hit Charmander precisely, and a prominent notification popped up on the screen.
"A critical hit!"
Charmander's stamina bar is almost empty.
"No, why should I?!"
The crimson light instantly turned intense, and the screen erupted in a helpless rage.
"Tsk."
Qinglu crossed her arms, looking utterly disdainful.
"It's just a classic remake. Anyway, you didn't win your first match against me."
Red had no time to pay attention to him; her brain was racing, trying to come up with a solution.
My finger unconsciously slid across the encyclopedia, and I suddenly realized that my command view could move freely!
He can even continue to control Little Red!
In his desperation, he didn't care about anything else and just randomly pressed buttons.
Little Red lunged forward, seemingly trying to block Squirtle's follow-up attack with his body.
result……
He suddenly rushed in front of Xiao Lü, his fist whistling through the air, and delivered a solid punch to Xiao Lü's face!
boom!
Little Green fell to the ground with a thud.
There's also a small star effect on its head representing dizziness.
"..."
Inside the research institute, there was a moment of silence.
The game continues.
When Squirtle saw its trainer get knocked out with a single punch, it panicked and ran back in a daze.
The little dragon seized the opportunity and, with a stumble, accurately stretched out its short legs.
Pfft!
Squirtle tripped and fell to the ground.
"Squirtle has been defeated!"
"The little dragon has gained 60 experience points!"
"Charmander's level has increased to 6!"
"Charmander has learned the move: Ember!"
"Little Red defeated its formidable rival, Little Green!"
The battle is over.
Professor Oak strolled over leisurely.
"Oak: It seems you won the battle. You must be a genius Pokémon Trainer!"
Little Green wobbled to his feet, sporting a conspicuous panda eye, angrily recalled Squirtle, walked to the side, and turned his head away.
Little Green: Hmph! I'll beat you someday!
"Little Red: ..."
An exclamation mark appeared above Professor Oak's head.
"Oki: Oh, right! I have a request for you two."
Professor Oak took two red and white machines out of his white coat and handed them to the two men.
"Oak: This is the Pokédex I invented! It can automatically record information about Pokémon you've seen or formed bonds with."
"Red got his Pokédex from Professor Oak!"
"Red put the Pokédex into his important item pocket."
"Ookami: Simply seeing them isn't enough to record detailed data. I need you guys to help me complete my Pokédex data through battles!"
Professor Oak then magically produced several more Poké Balls.
"Red got 5 Poké Balls."
"Red put the Poké Ball into the Poké Ball pocket."
"Oak: Trainers have limited energy and can usually only take care of 6 Pokémon at a time. If you feel overwhelmed, just send the Pokémon you need to take care of to me. The backyard of the lab is large, and I will take good care of them for you. Of course, you can summon them back to the team at any time."
"Little Green: Leave it to me!"
"Little Red: ..."
"Oki: Haha, it's up to you guys now. If you're going to challenge the League Tournament, remember to collect all eight badges! Alright, let's go!"
Little Green snorted and hurriedly left the research institute, passing Little Red.
Professor Oak smiled and placed the remaining Poké Ball on the research table before turning to attend to other matters.
"Um... I'm sorry..."
Only after this part of the story was over did Crimson dare to secretly glance at Green beside her out of the corner of her eye and stammer an apology.
"We've entered the main storyline, let's go."
Qinglu remained expressionless, slightly raising her chin to signal him to continue.
This time, Crimson listened to him.
After checking Charmander's condition with the Pokédex, use healing items to treat it, and then control Red to leave the research lab.
Just as they passed the entrance of the research institute, the sharp-eyed Chi Hong noticed a furtive figure flash by in the corner.
At the entrance, Xiao Chi bumped into the handsome researcher from before.
"Handsome Researcher: You're destined to be a legendary trainer! Here's my contact information; feel free to contact me if you encounter any problems."
After the interaction, the handsome researcher walked straight into the research institute.
"That's exactly what Brother Bai Zhou told me back then! I miss it so much—"
Just as Red was about to manipulate Little Red to leave Pallet Town, Little Yellow suddenly spoke up.
"Wait, wait a minute! Something feels off... There should be another main character, right? Corresponding to Professor Oak's last Poké Ball."
"Um……"
Qinglu frowned in thought, recalling the details from just now, when suddenly a flash of inspiration struck her.
"Yes! There's a hidden plot point! That sneaky figure from earlier! Quick, back to the lab, check where you put the last Poké Ball!"
"No--!"
Xiao Lan suddenly stood up, her voice shrill and distorted.
After the three of them turned to look at her, her momentum instantly vanished, and her voice became as soft as a mosquito's hum.
"Uh...why, where's the hidden storyline? Let's leave Pallet Town and explore the outside world, it's definitely more fun..."
Her eyes darted around, trying hard to hide something.
Red glanced at her suspiciously, then decisively ignored her suggestion, controlling Red to turn around and rush back to the research lab, heading straight for the research station where Professor Oak had just placed the Bulbasaur Poké Ball.
As soon as I got close, a cutscene was triggered.
"There really was a hidden plot..."
A knowing smile appeared on Qinglu's lips.
Zoom out.
The handsome researcher who had just spoken to Xiao Chi was now easily holding a struggling beautiful girl in one hand, as if she were a chick.
Hanging from the girl's waist were the last Poké Ball and a crude, uncolored Pokédex.
They recognized the girl.
It was the character illustration of the girl wearing a wide-brimmed sun hat when you were choosing your character at the beginning of the game!
