Elf: This little Mao is very different.

"Hello, welcome to the Black Gold Gym!"

When Xiaomao, Mei and Toruko stepped into the Kurokin Gym, a man wearing a helmet at the front desk of the gym hall immediately stood up after seeing Xiaomao and the other two.

"Hello, we are here to challenge the Black Gold Gym." After seeing the staff of the gym, Xiao Mao immediately came to the counter and said.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Hyota, the trainer of the Kurokin Gym, here?"

"Sorry, Gym Master Hyota is not in the gym right now." After hearing Xiao Mao asking about Hyota's situation, the staff shook his head and said.

"Oh, how could this happen?" Mei felt a little disappointed after hearing that Hyota was not in the gym. If this happened, they would not be able to challenge the gym for the time being.

"I'm so sorry." As for the staff of the Kurokin Gym, after seeing Mei's performance, they immediately showed embarrassed reactions.

"But you can make an appointment with me. If nothing goes wrong, you can challenge the gym tomorrow." But then the staff member changed the subject and made a suggestion to Xiao Mao and the other two.

"Okay, please."

The Black Gold Gym trainer was not in the gym, so Xiao Mao and the others had no choice but to leave the relevant information. The rest of the things can only be discussed tomorrow.

"Really? The gym trainer isn't even in the gym. We really made this trip for nothing!"

After walking out of the gym, Mei, somewhat reluctantly, began to complain.

"Well, every gym trainer has their own life. It's inevitable that they'll be away for a while. Don't worry about it."

When Toruko heard Mei's complaints, she comforted her.

"Okay." At this point, Mei has no other choice but to complain. She can't get the gym trainer back!

As for Xiao Mao, after hearing Toruko's words of comforting Mei, he couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart. What does it mean to be away for a period of time occasionally?

Based on the plot of his previous life, Xiao Mao can draw a conclusion that if no one challenged the Black Gold Gym, Hyota would probably not be willing to come back at all.

Moreover, at the gym in Yuanzhi City, the gym trainer there simply closed the gym in order to go out for a trip.

"Xiao Mao, do you have any suggestions for the rest of the day?"

Just when Xiao Mao was thinking about the gym trainers in the Sinnoh region, Mei's words pulled Xiao Mao out of his thoughts.

"What did you say?" Xiao Mao, who had just woken up, did not hear Mei's question clearly.

"What were you thinking about just now? Why were you so engrossed?" Mei noticed that Xiaomao had come back to his senses and asked curiously.

"I'm just thinking about one thing." Xiao Mao shook his head gently.

Seeing that Xiaomao was unwilling to talk, Mei didn't pursue the matter further but repeated what she had said before.

"We can't just go back to the Pokémon Center now."

From Mei's tone, it can be seen that she doesn't want to return to the Pokémon Center now, she wants to play.

"How about we go to the Kurokin Coal Mine?" Xiao Mao thought for a while and thought of a place, so he suggested it to Mei and Toruko.

"Black Gold Coal Mine?" This was the first time Mei and Toruko heard this name.

"The Black Gold Coal Mine is located in the south of Black Gold City. It was dug by the Black Gold Gym trainer Piaotai. It is a very important place in the city. The Black Gold Coal Mine provides the energy needed by Black Gold City. Most of the livelihoods in Black Gold City basically rely on it."

Xiao Mao briefly introduced the matters concerning the Kurokino Coal Mine to Mei and Toruko.

"Why should we go to the Kurokino Coal Mine?" After hearing some information about the Kurokino Coal Mine, Mei had no interest in it.

"In addition to developing corresponding coal, the black gold coal mine can sometimes excavate fossils of ancient elves." Looking at Mei and Toru who were not interested, Xiao Mao immediately added a piece of information.

"Ancient elf fossils!" After hearing this, Mei and Toruko became a little interested.

"Besides that, if the information I received is correct, Mr. Hyota, the trainer of the Kurokin Gym, should be at the Kurokin Coal Mine."

The next piece of news from Xiao Mao was a decisive blow, causing Mei and Toruko to immediately change their minds.

"You said Mr. Hyota is in the Black Gold Coal Mine?" Mei felt a little bit unbelievable about the news that Xiaomao said.

"Of course." Xiao Mao nodded, then told Mei and Toruko what he had learned about Hyota.

"Piao Tai is very fond of elf fossils, so he is very interested in the black gold charcoal pit where elf fossils can be excavated."

"That's how it is!" After listening to Xiaomao's explanation, Mei suddenly understood.

"Then let's go over there quickly!" After hearing that Hyota might be in the Black Gold Charcoal Mine, Mei became impatient.

"it is good!"

So after Xiao Mao found the location of the Black Gold Coal Mine on the map, he took Mei and Touko and walked towards there together.

After a while, Xiao Mao and his friends arrived at their destination, which was the Black Gold Coal Mine.

"This is the Black Gold Coal Mine!" Mei stood at the entrance of the Black Gold Coal Mine and looked at the situation inside with curiosity.

At the Black Gold Coal Mine, in addition to the busy workers coming and going, there are also many strong men and women, plus various excavation equipment, giving people a busy feeling.

"The Black Gold Coal Mine is the energy center of the entire Black Gold City. The livelihood of the entire Black Gold City depends on it, so it is inevitable that there are so many people here."

Xiao Mao also noticed Mei looking around with surprise in her eyes, and continued to explain.

"That's it."

Before Mei could continue asking, Xiao Mao told her some information he knew.

"In the Black Gold Coal Mine, in addition to these busy workers, there are also many trainers."

As Xiao Mao spoke, he searched for figures that were completely different from the other busy people. It was obvious that these people were trainers, not staff members of the Black Gold Mine.

"Trainer?" Touzi became interested in the existence of a trainer in the Black Gold Mine, so she asked Xiaomao.

"As a gym trainer, Hyota allows trainers to train their Pokémon in the Black Gold Coal Mine. So there are often trainers here, coming to some remote places to conduct training activities."

Xiao Mao pointed at several figures who were training elves and said to Touzi.

"I see. It seems that Mr. Hyota is a man with good predictions." After Xiao Mao's introduction, Mei and Toruko also had a certain understanding of the Kurokino Coal Mine.

Just as Xiao Mao and the other two continued to watch the black gold charcoal pit, they suddenly noticed that a lot of people had gathered at the entrance of one of the caves.

"That place is..."
