Chapter 4

Shiny Pokémon

Wilderness Sanctuary, home to Unova’s most famous ancient castle.

Many researchers and archaeology enthusiasts visit ancient castles for sightseeing and exploration.

Not to mention.

According to the report, there is a high possibility that many ancient ruins exist beneath the desert where the wilderness scenic area is located.

This has attracted a large number of trainers and archaeology enthusiasts to explore the area.

Over time.

A desert resort located in a wilderness scenic area was thus created.

Enjoy boating on the oasis lake, watch the unique sand cactus performance, and savor distinctive desert cuisine...

and so.

Both Raven City and Flying Cloud City have direct bus routes to Wilderness Resort.

"What a blunder! I look like a complete idiot now."

Natsuki realized once again the importance of intelligence.

result.

Not only was it a waste of time, but we also walked for so long under the scorching sun.

Snivy was so angry that it didn't want to leave its Poké Ball.

As time goes by.

The environment along the way gradually changed to resemble that of a desert.

The land was covered in yellow sand, with only a few scattered cacti as the only green patches.

Not long after.

The bus stopped, and Xia Mu immediately raised her head.

"arrive?"

No!

Seemingly hearing Xia Mu's question, the driver shook his head.

"You can rest here for a bit, maybe use the restroom or something..."

Xia Mu nodded knowingly, then turned his gaze back to the window.

I feel a bit bored.

If this continues, won't the videos become too bland? Will anyone watch them?

Looking at the yellow sand outside the window, Xia Mu sighed.

If that doesn't work, I'll have to study copywriting...

Just then.

Suddenly, a large patch of moving green cacti appeared in the endless yellow sand.

"Wow, it's a sand cactus...wait, what?!"

Xia Mu couldn't help but rub his eyes.

"Why does that one's color seem..."

"Holy crap!"

Looking closely with the binoculars he'd swiped from Officer Jenny, Natsuki's expression was one of utter shock.

"It's a Shiny Pokémon!"

Xia Mu was certain that she had not misread it.

Although he didn't have the discerning eye of the Zhu Zi player, the distinctive purple color of the heteromorphic sand cactus compared to other sand cacti confirmed Xia Mu's suspicions.

At this time.

The other passengers on the bus also noticed the seemingly migrating Sausage Cactus and the unusual Shiny Pokémon.

"Holy crap, a strangely shaped sand cactus!"

"Master, I'm not coming back, don't wait for me!"

"Me too!"

"Let's go, it's a Shiny Pokémon!"

"Hurry, hurry, don't let them beat us to it..."

The once quiet bus suddenly became lively as large groups of trainers poured out and headed towards the desert.

Looking at this scene, Xia Mu pondered for a moment.

Do you want to come along?

As a trainer aiming to become a major internet celebrity, Xia Mu knew long ago that the most important thing to become famous online is to leave a lasting impression.

Initially, considering the new Leafeon and Snivy, Natsuki's goal was to become a trainer of high-value Pokémon.

However, considering the online environment, Xia Mu was actually somewhat hesitant.

after all.

Just like how people from Shandong are good at taking civil service exams, and people from Yunnan have all been through the wrestling process.

There are also such special labels in the world of Pokémon.

Dark-type trainers have a terrible personality.

The Fire-type Trainer has a fiery temper and can cook.

However, if the team consists of Pokémon such as Masked Meowth, Serperior, Gardevoir, Buneary, Primarina, Milotic, etc.

emmm...

"Having a different colored elf as a signature character doesn't seem like a bad idea?"

Considering that he already had two Grass-type Pokémon, Xia Mu hesitated a bit.

Rather than focusing on one attribute, Xia Mu would prefer to become a trainer with multiple attributes.

And just then...

Looking at the trainers who were almost out of sight, Shin-chan, who had long since run out of breath and didn't want to stay cooped up in the car any longer, couldn't help but pat Natsuki's hand.

As the fragrant scent emanating from Xin Ye Miao filled Xia Mu's mind, it cleared up.

"Holy crap, whether or not they catch them is another matter, the real hot topic is this kind of story about chasing after shiny Pokémon!!"

Finally realizing why she had gone out, Xia Mu immediately stood up, grabbed her backpack, and ran towards the car door.

"Master, I'm not coming back either!"

Watching Xia Mu disappear in a flash, the driver's eyes behind his sunglasses revealed a smile.

"Another batch..."

At this time.

Unaware that the driver seemed to have other ideas, Xia Mu was holding up her phone and chasing after the large group.

"Brothers, we encountered a heterochromatic elf on our way to the wilderness scenic area, and are currently in pursuit..."

but.

Compared to other trainers who send out mount Pokémon like Fire Horse, or release Flying-type Pokémon to chase after them from the air.

Having only two legs and having set off later, Xia Mu gradually fell behind, to the point where she could no longer see the backs of the others.

"I definitely want to get a mount Pokémon someday!"

"Guys, not having a mount Pokémon is a real disadvantage in a situation like this. Or at least having a flying Pokémon to lock onto a target from the air would be helpful..."

While muttering some nonsense, Xia Mu's mind was already starting to think about what kind of high-value mount spirits he could find.

A goat as a mount? A Growlithe? Or perhaps Milton and Guleton from the Padida region?

Speaking of which...

The Padiya region seems to be home to the Orange Academy?

That is Guleton.

But it seems like there's also an Orange Academy in the anime's world?

Which Flying-type Pokémon is the best?

However, flying-type Pokémon aren't the only ones that can fly.

We should catch a reliable one, since we need to fly...

My steps never faltered, and my mind was filled with countless thoughts.

My head, burning from the heat, was filled with all sorts of strange thoughts.

next moment.

"Meow!!"

With Shin-chan's loud reminder, Natsuki finally realized how dangerous he was doing.

Daydreaming while running at high speed is practically asking for a fall, isn't it?

but.

By the time Xia Mu realized this, it was already a little too late.

Suddenly, the ground beneath my feet gave way to emptiness.
