Elf: This little Mao is very different.

“This forest is so lush!”

After obtaining the basic badge of the Shippo Gym in Shippo City and Mei also completed the goal of beating the Emperor Xiaoshu, Xiaomao and the others left Shippo City and headed towards the next gym city, which was Feiyun City in the Unova region where Xiaomao and the others had just arrived.

However, when Xiaomao and his companions were traveling from Qibao City to Feiyun City, they happened to pass through a forest.

Xiao Mao, strolling in the forest, glanced at the dense trees around him and sighed.

"The Blue Car Forest is the largest forest in our Unova region. There are a large number of wild elves living here, and the number and variety of elves are extremely large.

Therefore, many trainers go to this forest every year just to capture the Pokémon they want."

Mei, who was standing by, introduced him to Xiao Mao proudly.

"However, compared to the Tokiwa Forest in your Kanto region, our Yaguruma Forest is still far inferior." Toruko also interjected at this time.

"Evergreen Forest is a paradise for Bug-type Pokémon, and our Blue Carriage Forest is also a paradise for Grass-type and Bug-type Pokémon. Many Grass-type and Bug-type Pokémon live here, including Bug Pokémon, Kapok Ball, and Lily Root Doll, etc."

"It sounds great." After hearing this, Xiao Mao immediately became interested.

Especially after hearing about the Lily Root Doll, Xiao Mao also wanted to conquer her. After all, both the Lily Root Doll and the evolved Miss Skirt are in line with Xiao Mao's aesthetic taste.

"However, since the Yakuri Forest is very large and the environment inside is extremely complex, many trainers passing by here always get lost, and this is something we need to pay attention to."

Toruko seemed to remember something, so she reminded Xiaomao and Mei.

"Don't worry, we've been here once and are very familiar with it." However, Mei didn't seem to take Tohko's reminder seriously. Instead, she spoke quite confidently.

“No, Xiao Mao, I’m not worried, I’m worried about you, Mei.

Tell me yourself, how many times have you been lost?"

However, Toruko's subsequent complaints made Mei smile awkwardly.

"It's not the same thing as a human stumbling, a horse stumbling!" But Mei still said stubbornly: "I will definitely not get lost this time."

"Forget it." Xiao Mao remembered Mei's mysterious sense of direction and immediately refused.

"Let me lead the way myself from now on. I also want to take a closer look at this Yakatsura Forest."

"Okay then." After hearing Xiao Mao's words, Mei had no choice but to agree.

Afterwards, Xiao Mao followed the map and took Mei and Toruko for a walk in the Yaguruma Forest.

While they were looking at the beautiful scenery on both sides of the road, they were also paying attention to the elves passing by to see if there were any suitable ones for them.

Although I didn’t gain much from capturing elves, I did see a lot of beautiful scenery, so it can be said that I gained a lot.

"what?"

Just when Xiao Mao and his friends were passing by a very tall towering tree, Xiao Mao suddenly sensed something and stopped.

"Xiao Mao, what did you find?" Seeing Xiao Mao stop walking, Mei immediately knew that Xiao Mao had discovered something, so she asked curiously.

"What is that?" Xiao Mao stopped and did not answer in a hurry, but looked up.

Mei and Toruko immediately looked up following Xiaomao's gaze, and saw something that looked very similar to a cocoon hanging on the tree.

"That thing feels a little familiar!" At this time, Touzi felt that the thing that looked like a cocoon was more and more familiar.

"I feel the same way." Mei also has this experience: "But I just can't remember it clearly!"

Just when Mei and Toruko were wondering where this thing was, it happened to move.

As the cocoon-like thing fell from the tree, it flipped over several times and suddenly turned into a person.

And the cocoon-like thing seen before was this person’s cloak.

"You are... Mr. Ati!" After seeing this man's true face, Mei immediately recognized him.

"It's really Mr. Ati. I was wondering if that cocoon looked so familiar!" Touzi now completely remembered it.

When they were traveling in the Unova region before, they also met Atishen dressed in cocoon costume in the Arrow Forest.

"Hello, Mei and Toru!" Seeing Mei and Toru, whom he was familiar with, Arti greeted them with a smile.

"Arti? You must be the gym trainer of the Feiyun Gym!"

At this moment, Xiao Mao looked at the familiar person in front of him and immediately remembered him.

"Hello, I'm Arti, the trainer of Feiyun Gym." After seeing that he was recognized, Arti smiled and nodded to Xiaomao.

"Excuse me, who are you..." However, Mr. Yati didn't seem to know Xiao Mao, so he started asking.

"Let me introduce you. This is Xiao Mao from Pallet Town in the Guandu region. He will challenge Mr. Arti at your Feiyun Gym next."

After seeing Arti put Kugou on Xiaomao, Mei immediately introduced him.

"So you are Xiao Mao, the champion of the last Lily of the Valley Conference!" After hearing Xiao Mao's name, Ati immediately remembered him.

"Hello, nice to meet you, Mr. Ati." After seeing Ati recognize him, Xiao Mao greeted him with a smile.

"Me too, Xiaomao!" After seeing Xiaomao, Yati smiled and nodded.

But then Arti's tone changed slightly, and he said, "But as for the gym challenge, I'm afraid I can't complete it now. I still have to stay in the Yakuri Forest for a few days."

"It's okay, we can wait." Xiao Mao had no objection to this.

"That's good." After seeing Xiaomao's understanding, Yati also seemed very happy.

"Mr. Yati, you are not still sketching in the Yaguruma Forest, are you?" After hearing the conversation between Xiaomao and Yati, Touzi reacted instantly.

"I can't help it," Arti said helplessly, "I'm really lacking inspiration at this time!"

"For an artist, lack of inspiration is a very serious matter."

"That's true." Although Mei couldn't understand, she could roughly understand it by looking at Arti's bitter expression.

"In addition to being a gym leader, Arty is also a Pokémon observer who is good at sketching. He is always pursuing artistic inspiration, and will fall into depression and contemplation when he can't find inspiration for a while, so he often goes in and out of the Yakuri Forest to pursue inspiration."

Touzi, who was standing by, also briefly introduced Yati to Xiaomao.

"So, judging from Mr. Yati's appearance, you have found the inspiration you wanted?" Xiao Mao looked at Yati, who was a little happy, and asked curiously.

"I didn't get any inspiration, but I did make a major discovery." After saying that, Arti revealed a mysterious smile.
