How can I be a trainer when my girlfriend is so cute?

Deep Gray City, a city located at the foot of a high mountain, faces the Evergreen Forest and backs onto Mount Tsukimi. Like Baidai City, it is located right in the middle of the largest forest and mountain range in the region.

Compared to the ruins of Baidai City and the bustling Niangguang City, Deep Gray City is just like other cities in Kanto. Apart from the Deep Gray Science Museum and the Deep Gray Gym in the northwest corner of the city, there seems to be nothing else to remember about this city. Even Kanto locals sometimes forget that there is such a city located between the Evergreen Forest and the Moon Viewing Mountain.

The day before yesterday, after encountering the photoelectric lizard in the wetlands of Shitsugen City, Qishu captured it into the Poké Ball without hesitation, and then hurriedly left the hunting area and went to the Poké Center. After the photoelectric lizard's body recovered a little, the two immediately boarded a plane to the Kanto region, and after arriving in Golden City, they changed buses all the way to Deep Gray City, a small town nestled at the foot of Yuejian Mountain.

"Let's go to the Deep Gray Science Museum first. I heard there are a lot of fossils there!" Walking on the dark gray streets of Deep Gray City, Qi Shu still had that excited expression on his face.

Unfortunately, no fossils have been found in the Padia region so far, so we have high expectations for the strange tree in the Deep Gray Museum.

The Dark Gray Museum is located in the northwest corner of the city. From the outside it looks like just an ordinary two-story building, but once you walk in it is a different world.

After buying tickets at the front desk and entering the exhibition area, the first thing that caught their eyes was a huge pterosaur skeleton fossil.

"So handsome!" Even though billions of years had passed, Fang Ci couldn't help but think of the majestic pterosaurs that dominated the sky in ancient times when he looked at the hideous fossil in front of him.

Next to the fossil pterosaur skeleton, the sickle on the forearm of the sickle-helmet fossil still shines with a cold light.

Behind these two majestic skeletons is a row of glass display cases, in which fossils from various regions are regularly displayed.

"Wow, this amber is so beautiful! Is this also a fossil?" Among the gray stones, Qishu saw the secret amber that was sparkling like a gem at a glance.

"That's right, beautiful lady. This is the secret amber of fossils containing the genes of fossil pterosaurs. However, I feel that its beauty is not even one-tenth as great as yours. I wonder if I would have the honor to have dinner with you tonight?" As soon as Qi Shu finished speaking, a squinty-eyed dark-skinned boy with a hedgehog head and wearing an orange vest and a green waistcoat, who looked about the same age as Fang Ci, slid down on one knee in front of Qi Shu and, as if by magic, took out a red rose from somewhere in his hand.

"Wow!" Qi Shu was startled by the sudden appearance of the young man. He let out a strange cry and immediately hid behind Fang Ci.

"No~" Looking up at the strange tree hiding behind Fang Ci, the boy's squinting eyes instantly lost their light, and his whole body stood still as if petrified, and the rose in his hand also withered magically.

"Qua~"

Just as Fang Ci and the other man were still in a daze, a red light flashed, and a bad frog suddenly appeared behind the boy, skillfully dragging the 'petrified' boy out of the exhibition hall.

"What's going on, what a weird guy?" After this inexplicable incident, the two looked at each other and found that the other's face was filled with the same confusion as their own.

"I'm not sure, but he said that this is a secret amber containing the genes of fossil pterosaurs. I guess those scientists are using this to resurrect fossil pterosaurs!" Fang Ci looked at the amber with excitement in his eyes. Nowadays, the technology of fossil revival is very mature. Some areas have even begun to plan to release the resurrected fossil elves into the wild.

"Doesn't that mean that the amber in here can also be revived into a fossilized pterosaur?" Qishu looked at the amber in the glass cabinet, his big, sparkling eyes full of curiosity.

"Yes, by the way, as long as you bring fossils here, this museum will also provide fossil resurrection services!"

Before Fang Ci opened his mouth, a familiar voice sounded again. The two turned around and found that the squinty-eyed boy who had just been dragged away by the bad frog had returned to the door again at some point. However, there was no trace of awkwardness on his face this time. His sharp face was full of seriousness and determination, and he was completely different from just now.

Noticing the two people's puzzled looks, the squinty-eyed boy hurriedly introduced himself: "My name is Xiaogang, my dream is to become a Pokémon doctor, and I am currently the gym leader of the Deep Gray City Gym located in the center of this city."

"How amazing! He looks about the same age as me, but he's already a gym trainer?" Upon hearing that the boy in front of him was actually a gym trainer, Qi Shu, who had not yet received his father's approval to inherit the gym, immediately showed an envious expression.

"My name is Fang Ci, and her name is Qishu. We are both trainers traveling here from Niangguang City in the Padia region." Fang Ci also introduced.

"The Padia region, those two really came from far away, and you are most welcome to Deep Gray City." Xiao Gang's tone was full of enthusiasm, and he was not at all embarrassed about what had just happened.

"Mr. Xiaogang, you just said that this museum can revive fossils?" Qishu asked curiously.

"That's right, but the guests have to bring their own fossils for resurrection!"

"I remember that Yuejian Mountain seems to be rich in fossils." After hearing Xiaogang say this, Fang Ci instantly remembered some travel guides he had seen before coming here.

"That's right. Fossil excavation was once a major feature of tourism in Yuejian Mountain." Xiaogang said with some pride.

“Before?” Fang Ci immediately grasped the key point from Xiaogang’s words.

"That's right, you two came at a very bad time. The deep gray cave that was open to tourists for excavation two days ago has been temporarily closed due to the attack of Team Rocket." Speaking of this, Xiaogang's tone suddenly dropped.

"Team Rocket?" Fang Ci and Qi Shu both felt unfamiliar with this name.

"Team Rocket is an evil organization active in the Kanto and Chengdu regions, engaging in various illegal activities with the goal of stealing other people's Pokémon." Seeing that the two didn't know about Team Rocket, Xiaogang explained.

"How could there be such a guy!" After hearing this, Qi Shu immediately became indignant.

"Yes, it was this group of hateful guys who attacked the cave and this museum while I was away two days ago. That's why I came here today." Xiao Gang scratched his head with a headache, which showed that he also found this kind of thing very difficult.

"Has this museum also been attacked?" Fang Ci and Qishu were a little surprised when they heard this. After all, it seemed that the museum was still operating normally and nothing inside looked like it had been attacked.

"That's right, but the Rocket Team that attacked here is said to have only stolen one thing. I came here to ask the curator about the situation." Xiaogang's tone was somewhat puzzled. After all, many precious fossils and antiques in the exhibition hall were safe and sound, which was not in line with the Rocket Team's usual style.

"Mr. Xiaogang, Fang Ci and I are also gym trainers of the Niangguang Gym. Could we go with you to see if we can help?" Xiaogang had just finished speaking, and Fang Ci hadn't said anything yet, but Qishu on the side took the lead and showed the identity card of his own Niangguang City gym.
