Dual-career Pokémon trainer

Yinyu City is a small city located between the technological city of Zijin City and the port city of Shuijing City. Perhaps it is a bit strange to call it a small city in some sense.

After all, unlike the cities that people usually know, many houses here are wooden houses built on trees. Although there have been some improvements in recent years, even some modern-looking buildings have been added on the nearby land.

But overall, you can still see that this place is full of natural atmosphere.

However, many people still know about this city deep in the forest, and some even come here specifically for this reason. In addition to the two huge cities on the east and west sides, there is also a very important place.

One of the eight major gyms officially certified by the Hoenn Alliance, the Inyu Gym is located here.

"Although I've heard that most people in Inyu City live in trees, I didn't expect this to be the case."

Looking up at the small wooden house in the woods that seemed to be formed naturally and seemed to have grown out of the trees, Lukia's eyes were filled with shock.

“Oh, are there people from other places coming to join the celebration?

Welcome to Inyu City."

Just then, a passerby who was walking over from the opposite direction seemed to have heard Lukia's words and answered happily.

"Celebration! Is there a celebration here?!"

Hearing the other party's words, Lukia was even more surprised.

“Yes, our Yinyu City’s annual Wing Carnival is being held these days.

Didn’t you come here specially?”

The passerby was also a little confused and thought that they had come from far away specifically to attend the carnival.

“No, but I’m also interested.

Please tell me where it is! "

"You go forward..."

......

After a while, Lukia and Lin Jing also arrived at the carnival venue.

"Hehe, come to think of it, I thought you were going to say you wanted to challenge the gym first."

Looking at the carnival venue that was already visible to the naked eye, Lukia had a look of embarrassment on her face.

Instead, Lin Jing responded with a helpless look.

“Of course the first thing to do when arriving in town is to go to the Pokémon Center for treatment.

Come to think of it, we've been to the Pokémon Center several times in the past few days, are you still not used to it?"

"Well..."

Hearing this, Lukia felt a little embarrassed.

That’s right, just after asking for directions, Liuqia was interrupted by Lin Jing when she was about to leave.

The reason is of course because they have been in the wild for two more days. Apart from anything else, they have to check the Pokémon at the Pokémon Center first.

This is also Lin Jing's habit.

"Alright, alright, now that everyone has rested, let's have fun.

As for the gym, there is no need to rush, since the gym is here and they won’t run away.”

Lin Jing waved her hand to indicate that she had no intention of continuing to blame the other party.

"Good!"

After jumping happily on the spot for a while, Lukia immediately went into the carnival venue.

She could no longer contain her excitement at the sight of all kinds of Pokémon masks, small ornaments or wood carvings made from tree trunks near Inyu City, and of course many small games that made her covet them just by looking at them from afar.

“Okay, if you guys want to play or buy anything, go ahead.

Just don’t affect other people as usual.”

Seeing that Lukia had already rushed out, Lin Jing turned his gaze back to the dozen or so companions around him.

"Fly, fly. (Just play with Jing.)"

The ribbon on her wrist was still there, and the Fairy Eevee at her feet rubbed Lin Jing's calf affectionately.

“Hua Ye Hua Ye! (I want to go see if there is anything delicious here!)”

After saying this, Hua Yeti had already taken some money from Lin Jing and flew away directly, performing the whole set of movements with ease.

"Awoo... (I'd better follow you...)"

Feeling the envy and the gazes of people around him wanting to touch him, Windy Dog felt a little helpless.

It’s good to follow Lin Jing. If someone is interested in it, this guy can help block it.

If I go out by myself, some of those guys will come over on their own.

Some would even say something like making it his Pokémon.

As a result, after that time, it rarely left Lin Jing's side whenever they went shopping together.

I don’t know what’s wrong with these humans. So many of them are interested in its fur like Jing.

Is it so nice to touch...

The next ones are the bouncing little diamonds, Pokkigu, and the flower therapy ring.

"Missi Missi! (Little Diamond wants to play with everyone!)"

"I've seen it a long time ago."

Looking at the little diamonds jumping around and wishing they could be as tall as themselves, Lin Jing readily took out a few bills.

These little guys love playing these little games the most.

However, Lin Jing did not let the other little guys go.

After all, their strength is not as great as that of their predecessors. It would be bad if they encountered any problems or were abducted.

It is worth mentioning that Vulpix originally wanted to play with Diamondback and the others, but was unfortunately pulled back by Lin Jing.

Maybe because of the number of creatures he had captured, Lin Jing subconsciously regarded this little guy as the leader of the second team.

Since you are the boss, how can you let this guy go out and play by himself?

"Okay, the rest of you stay with me, and remember not to run around.

Otherwise, be careful of being kidnapped by others."

Lin Jing rubbed the doll's head with a playful smile on his face.

“Is it okay or not… (I’m not that stupid…)”

Almost all the dolls were ashamed.

"That's not what I'm saying. I'm telling you to be careful not to fall again."

Lin Jing smiled as she gently poked the doll's somewhat furry face.

“Is it okay? (No, I’m not. I’m making progress too!)”

Almost Doll patted his furry chest confidently.

"Yes, yes, then I'll leave this battle to you.

This is your first time on stage."

Lin Jing also encouraged the almost doll.

After this period of hard training, almost all of them have become very hardworking.

That is why Lin Jing also advanced the time for it to officially participate in the battle.

“Is it okay? (I will definitely try my best!)”

The doll raised its little hand confidently, as if a raging fire had been burning behind it, expressing its fighting spirit.

"Awoo... (Um...I shouldn't interrupt you now, but aren't we here to have fun this time...)"

A big furry face came closer and Windspeed muttered.

"Almost~ (Ah~Σ(⊙▽⊙"a)"

After what Windy Dog said, Dabanwa seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water, and the raging fire that was originally burning behind him had completely disappeared.

Click~

"Okay, in that case, let's go play first."

Putting down his arms, Lin Jing took the lead with an unbearable smile.

(╯‵□′)╯︵ “Is that okay? (Jing, don’t run away. Delete the photo you just took!)”

"Haha! No way, there are still some similar dolls so don't chase them!"

"Is it okay? (How can I not chase after her?)"

The almost doll with bared fangs and claws shows that it is not stupid, so how could it not pursue you!

"Because if you chase me, I will..."

Paji~

"...wrestling."

........

On the other side, when Lin Jing was having fun at the carnival with his Pokémon, Lukia, who had entered the carnival earlier than them, already had two small jewelry pieces in the style of Inyu City on her body.

He was even happily licking the wings of the bluebird (crossed out), a white one.

Even so, her eyes never stopped moving. She first curiously looked at the goldfish stall and wanted to try to catch some.

Unfortunately, the thin paper net broke into pieces as soon as it entered the water with the slightest force.

Not only that, but he poured water all over her.

There are also games like throwing a ball into a hole.

According to the store, the best reward includes a starter Pokémon Porcupine from the Hoenn region.

Unfortunately, the highest basket was empty and no one hit the ball.

In the end, all that was given to Lukia in return was thirty packs of tissues.

Even so, after Lukia left, the number of people who continued to throw balls at the so-called Fire Chicken did not decrease at all.

It’s a pity that they all seemed not to notice that there was a red pattern half floating in the air in front of the red ball frame that symbolized the highest prize.

The owner of the small stall was counting money until his hands were tired.

He didn't recognize this hidden dragon, but he seemed to like sleeping and playing with the ball here.

What does it have to do with him if the ball doesn't go in?

Not long after walking forward, Lukia even came across a small stall that seemed to be selling Pokémon.

Originally, she was wondering why the sale of Pokémon was not a prohibited act, until she saw the Pokémon in front of her, Lukia suddenly realized.

"What...it turns out to be a Magikarp.

No wonder it was bought.”

"Hey~ little sister, what are you talking about?

Because Magikarp is often over-populated, it is also a rare Pokémon that can be bought and sold without special registration.

I am a legitimate business owner.”

As if he had heard Lukia's muttering, the mustached owner of the stall hurriedly explained.

“That’s what you said, but you also said it was Magikarp.

It’s everywhere.”

Lucia was still mumbling.

What's more, it's a water-type Pokémon.

“How can you say that?

And let me tell you, this Magikarp of mine is not ordinary."

"Not ordinary? It's just like an ordinary Magikarp."

Because of this, Lukia took another look, but no matter how she looked at it, she felt that it was just an ordinary Magikarp.

Even in this small fish tank, it is not as energetic as most of the Magikarp.

As soon as he finished saying this, the boss looked around, as if he was worried about being discovered by someone.

Finally, after pressing a button, the originally transparent box was covered by a promotional advertisement.

There seemed to be a sound of gears turning under the square fish tank.

After doing all this, the boss gestured to Lukia and finally stretched his neck and whispered in Lukia's ear in a tiny voice.

"Look, what I'm actually selling is this Magikarp."

Now the only view from which Magikarp can be seen is this opening looking down from above.

However, what Lukia saw at this moment was not the red Magikarp that she remembered, but a fish with a golden body.

"This is..."

"Yes, I tell you, this is a top-quality product that is hard to find among ten thousand Magikarp.

The carp among carps, the king of carps among carps, the golden carp!"

"Look at you, little sister. You are so pretty, you must be a kind-hearted child. That's why I told you the real Magikarp I sell.

How about buying it?"

In the end, the boss also showed his true colors.

"this..."

Hearing this, Lucia, who was supposed to have no interest at all, actually began to hesitate.

Golden Magikarp... Although I don't want it, this kind of golden scales will definitely be very good after being cultivated by a teacher or uncle...
