Dawn of Pokémon

Early morning on April [-]th.

At the entrance of the Honglian City Third Hospital, there were far fewer medical staff and injured patients coming and going.

Most of the injured who were rescued in time have received treatment and their injuries are gradually improving.Of course, there were also many bodies that had lost their temperature and were sent into the flames, turned into ashes and danced into the sky - and finally, the traces of life were silenced in the land of the southern island.

Xiaoye and Xiaotian had arrived at the hospital entrance early, waiting quietly for their partners to appear.

When the Phoenix King's Fire exploded, Xiaojie and Xiaoling were in a glass room. The impact they received was not great and their injuries were relatively minor.However, because the treatment of mental trauma is too time-consuming, they are the last to be discharged from the hospital.

——It even makes the patient so bored that he is almost "mentally" traumatized again.

"Here we come." Xiaoye said with a smile when she finally saw the familiar golden retriever swaying in her field of vision.

Xiaojie and Xiaoling walked out of the hospital one after another.Breathing the fresh air without the smell of medicine for the first time in a long time, Xiaojie couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, "I finally made it to the hospital. Xiaoling... eh?"

The golden-haired boy watched in stunned silence as his sister rushed straight out and hugged the smiling purple-haired girl opposite.

The electric mouse was so frightened that he quickly jumped onto Xiaotian's shoulder next to him.

"Xiaoye, Xiaotian, I finally see you alive. Wuwuwu. After being locked up in the hospital for so many days, I thought I was going to be suffocated to death..."

Xiao Ye laughed heartily and said seriously: "Long time no see. It's really a narrow escape from death when I hear you say that."

"That's right, I can stand here now all because of my terrifyingly strong willpower!"

"Xiao Ling...you are too exaggerated." Xiaojie walked up to everyone and said hello with a look of laughter and tears on his face, "At least the doctor didn't ban us from using mobile phones."

And therefore bombarded Xiaotian's inbox.

"What are you talking about, brother." Xiaoling turned her head and criticized with a serious face: "We have gone through such a battle, it's not surprising that someone died in the middle? It's not easy for all four of us to be intact. It's too much for you to be so cold when we meet again without any harm."

Xiaojie: "..."

What you were complaining about just now was that the hospital was so boring that you almost died!

The twin brothers suddenly wanted to hit a wall.

"I was so nervous for the few minutes when you two were teleported out." Xiaoling hugged Xiaoye again, "It's great that everyone is safe in the end."

"I was also very nervous when you used the Sun Armor to deal with Ishihara." Xiaoye continued with a smile and patted the girl's back gently.

Xiaojie shook his head and sighed helplessly, "Really...it made the atmosphere as if this Iceberg boy and I had to give each other a hug on occasion."

The silver-haired boy seemed to think seriously for a moment, looked at Xiaojie expressionlessly, and opened his arms.

Xiaojie: "...I don't want it!" (crazy)

After leaving the hospital, the first thing the golden retriever brothers and sisters had to do was of course go to the Pokémon Center to get back the Pokémon they had stored for a long time - a touching reunion with the Pokémon was also a necessary process.Afterwards, the hungry four made breakfast on the spot at the Pokémon Center.

"To celebrate the survival of all members, let's have a touching picnic at Honglian Volcano" - Xiaojie and Xiaoling came up with this plan during the meal.

Xiaoye and Xiaotian naturally had no objection, although they both suspected that the main purpose of the two people opposite was to stretch their rusty bodies after being locked up in the hospital for too long.

After all, as a traveling freelance trainer, everyone has picnics every day, so it’s really nothing special.

So, after eating breakfast, they put on their backpacks and took all their Pokémon with them. The four trainers who participated in this major event slowly and leisurely headed towards the Red Lotus Volcano like ordinary tourists.

After arriving at the foot of Honglian Volcano in a tourist bus, the four people got out of the bus and began their mountaineering journey.

The bus driver expressed quite a surprise that he could still attract tourists - after the news of the three-god bird attacking Honglian Island was reported, almost all scheduled tour groups were cancelled, and idle tourists disappeared without a trace.The driver was really puzzled that young people like Xiaoye and the others would insist on visiting Honglian Volcano at this time - the reason was mostly classified as "young people's willfulness".

Due to the impact of the disaster, most hot spring hotels and restaurants near Gurren Volcano have been closed.Fortunately, they didn't really plan to travel, so they bypassed the developed scenic area and went straight into the uninhabited area of ​​Honglian Volcano.

That's where trainers should go.

The lives of wild Pokémon have not been affected.They were still looking for food, fighting with each other, and occasionally attacking trainers who appeared nearby.The four people traveling together also sent out their original partners to fight against the wild Pokémon.

There is no need for deliberate instructions - the opponents are just wild Pokémon without trainers. The team fighting skills honed day and night during this period have been deeply engraved in their bodies, and they can do it just by feeling. Simple combo.

——It is worth mentioning that Xiaoye’s Charizard, which finally evolved into its final form, was extremely excited all the way, and once again persistently hooked up with all its friends to show off its tall and burly body after evolution.

Even though Yan was half a head taller than him, he didn't care at all and continued to show off.

So much so that Yan showed an unserious black face.

"Hey, don't you think the four of them feel great?" Xiaoling whispered to the other three, her eyes narrowed into a crescent shape due to pleasure, "I didn't even notice - when did it start? Have they become such a tacit understanding?"

The four Pokémon leading the way never received instructions from their trainers from beginning to end.Despite this, they did not lose their pace, and still repelled all incoming enemies in an orderly and decisive manner.

"It usually takes about a month to get Pokémon used to the team battle mode." Xiaotian said, staring at the backs of the four Pokémon in front of him, "They learn much faster than I expected. "

"Maybe it's because we were born to be partners." The golden-haired boy put his hands behind his head and said with a smile.

His tone was sincere, full of heartfelt joy and the unique excitement of a boy - even though just a moment ago he refused to hug one of the people he was "born to be a partner with."

Since the Pokémon were unexpectedly overly capable, the four trainers were left idle.The road up the mountain that should have been more vigilant became easy and fast, and the clear laughter of boys and girls echoed in the forest from time to time.

"Sure enough, it's better to be in the wild - next time you must be careful to avoid mental trauma. Treatment is too time-consuming." Xiaoling jumped on the rocks in the mountains, seeming to be still satisfied with the forced hospitalization for four days and five nights. Feeling frightened.

"Speaking of it, Xiaoling." Recalling the scene at that time, Xiaoye asked, "Why were only you and Xiaojie injured at that time? Maybe the doctor's attack was only aimed at people with super powers?"

But... is there really a clear line between ordinary people and people with super powers?

Xiaoye learned basic knowledge about superpowers at Yamabuki Academy and has some doubts about her own judgment.

"Um..." After hearing Xiaoye's question, the blond girl's expression became a little strange.

She stopped smiling and didn't reply for the time being.His expression seemed to be thinking, but also hesitant - and sad.

"no."

Before Xiaoling could answer, her brother's voice sounded first.

All eyes turned to him.Xiaojie seemed calmer than his sister, "The ones being targeted are not the superpowers, but the superpowers of the Xia Yang family."

The superpowers of the Xia Yang family...?

Xiaoye became more and more puzzled, but the expressions of Xiaojie and Xiaoling made her realize something more.

"I'm sorry, if this question will embarrass you, just pretend that I didn't ask anything." She said immediately.

After hearing his partner's eager apology, the golden-haired boy was stunned, "No, that's not the case. Don't say such unscrupulous words. How do you say it..."

Xiaojie seemed a little unsure of how to express himself.While he was silent, Xiaotian said: "I remember that person said, 'I often see your family's name recently', and then mentioned 'the shapeless waste made by Levins' who claimed to be the leader of the livestock." Experimental subject'. Based on this information, I can probably guess something."

After a moment of silence, Xiaotian said: "If it's not convenient to talk about this matter, I won't ask further."

"No, no, it's really not true!" Xiaojie suddenly became anxious, "...To be honest, we have been asked by our family to keep this matter secret and cannot tell anyone."

Seeing Xiaotian and Xiaoye both nodding, Xiaojie suddenly grinned, "Although the family's orders cannot be violated casually, I promise—"

"If one day this ban is lifted, or if I need help to solve this matter - I will definitely find you two first to explain everything."

The blond boy solemnly said his vow, and then whispered, "Although it may be a very disappointing topic..."

"We will definitely listen attentively then." Xiaotian nodded and answered calmly without being arrogant.

Both Xiaoye and Xiaotian clearly remember the scene at that time - especially the expressions of their two partners. They may never forget it.

What kind of longing is behind that look that is mixed with sadness, anger and a bit of nostalgia?

They didn't pursue the question that day.But they all remembered their companion's answer deeply in their hearts.And looking forward to one day in the future, the blond boy and girl will happily tell them that the matter has been resolved, or——

Ask them for help without thinking.

The heavy topic was quickly over.The foursome’s climbing trip continues.

Although--

"The desert dragonflies... actually left us while we were so engrossed in chatting!"

"They don't even look behind them..."

"Hahahahaha, so interesting!"

"This isn't fun!"

"What does it matter? Xiaoye, I'll leave it to you to do the waveguide detection!
