There seems to be something wrong with these Pokémon

The sun shines on the fine sand, and the golden sand and the blue sea complement each other.

The sea breeze, with its moist scent, brushed past two figures walking on the beach.

Sakuya Ye smiled as she watched the Pokémon running wildly on the beach.

Ibrahimovic sometimes stopped and sometimes turned around to chase the surging waves.

Whenever waves hit the beach, it would curiously stretch out its paws and slap the naughty waves.

Sakutani Ye and Kitazawa Lingyou walked slowly on the footprints of varying depths left by Ibrahimovic, and silence spread between the two.

Kitazawa Lingyou lowered his eyes and pursed his lips slightly. After a while, he spoke to break the silence.

"I actually..."

"Is that true?"

Kitazawa Lingyou was startled and turned to look at the boy.

"It's easy to destroy trust, Lingyou."

Shuoya Ye looked up at the long-winged gulls spreading their wings over the sea, and spoke in a gentle tone.

"Concealment is just a veil, but lies are a sharp knife." He raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"If you haven't figured out how to start the conversation yet, so you're just making up a lie, then there's no need to explain—"

Kitazawa Lingyou's eyes darkened.

The moment he realized the boy's attitude towards him had changed, the rationality that he had always been proud of collapsed in an instant.

He knew that the boy had noticed something.

Yes, this is not surprising.

The boy was not a dull person, and he did not hide those secrets.

Perhaps... in his subconscious mind, he was expecting the young man to reveal the unspeakable secrets between them and put an end to it all.

His breathing gradually became faster, and he stared at the boy's slowly opening lips as if he was awaiting a judgment.

“…It’s okay. I can wait.”

The unexpected answer made Kitazawa Lingyou look surprised.

Shuoya Ye saw the black-haired boy's pupils suddenly widen and laughed out loud.

"When you are willing to tell me, I will be a good listener."

"So until then, keep yourself safe, okay?"

Kitazawa Lingyou only felt his throat tighten, and a few syllables lingered between his lips and teeth for a long time before he slowly uttered them.

"it is good..."

Eevee's rapid cry immediately attracted Sakuya Ye's attention.

He hurriedly ran after Ibrahimovic, and stopped at the edge of the coastline with Ibrahimovic to the rhythmic sound of drums.

Kitazawa Reiyuu hurriedly caught up, and when he opened his mouth to ask, he caught a glimpse of two people, one big and one small, beside him with almost the same shocked expressions.

"What?" He followed the line of sight of the man and Pokémon, "This is the White Sea Lion, the Sea Lion Pokémon."

"I know it."

Sakuya Ye squatted down, afraid of disturbing the Pokémon whose body was as white as snow, and spoke in a low voice.

"It's like a musician." He nodded his head as the white sea lion slapped its belly with its hands, smiling, "Ibrahimovic thinks so too, right?"

Eevee nodded, his tail wagging rapidly.

The white sea lion lay belly up on the soft sand, enjoying the joy of sunbathing.

The hands seemed to have a special rhythm, patting rhythmically on the round belly.

musician?

Kitazawa Reiyu was stunned for a moment, looked at the two people, one adult and one child, who were concentrating, and after a moment's hesitation, forced himself to appreciate the so-called "music".

After just one minute, Kitazawa Lingyou took a few steps back with a frown on his face.

I couldn't hear the music, but it was really noisy.

He looked up at the man and the Pokémon who were still immersed in the "music". Helplessly, he sat down and stared at the boy's serious and gentle profile.

It is the warmth that is hard to find in memory...

"Hey! Classmates! Come over here and help!"

The call from afar brought Shuoya Ye back to his senses from the excellent performance of the White Sea Lion, and he looked back.

But she happened to meet Kitazawa Reiyu's eyes.

Kitazawa Lingyou did not avoid or dodge, but raised his thick eyebrows.

It seemed to be asking, "What's wrong?"

"Is that Teacher Andy's voice?"

Shuoya Ye stood up carefully, and after making sure that he had not disturbed the white sea lion, he continued, "He seemed to be asking for help. Is there something wrong?"

"Go and see."

Although Kitazawa Reiyuu said this, his butt still did not get up from the beach.

He glanced at the drone speeding through the air not far away and questioned Andy's call.

"Ibrahimovic."

Following Sakuya's call, Eevee, which had already stood up with him, quickly jumped into the trainer's arms along his outstretched arm and moved its ears.

Set off! ! !

----

When the two arrived at the gathering place, they stood together with the classmates who had just resolved the [Beach Riot Crisis].

Unlike the other students who were in a mess, the two of them, who were spotless and even had clean hair, received resentful stares.

Jill quickly pulled them to her side.

She supported her waist with one hand and pointed at Andy, who was standing in front of everyone with a panicked look on his face.

"The teacher suddenly called us over, as if there was something important..."

"A king whale is stranded!" Andy shouted at the top of his voice amidst the complaints, "Quick! Students whose hunting cursors are still working, come with me to help!"

"If it's out of the sea for a long time, it will suffocate and die!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the student group fell silent.

They looked at each other, and finally Nicole stood up with a messy hair.

"Teacher, what can we do?"

Andy took a deep breath, seeming to be very angry.

"What can you do? Look at the hunting cursors in your hands! Go and help send the whale king back to the sea!"

Andy raised the hunting cursor in his hand that was emitting black smoke, and said through gritted teeth, "If a Raichu hadn't appeared out of nowhere and damaged my hunting cursor, why would I need you?"

Looking down along Andy's hand, the burnt shirt seemed to prove that what he said was true.

"Don't waste time!" Andy turned and ran away anxiously, "Everyone! Follow! If you meet useful Pokémon on the road, use the hunting cursor to capture them in time and ask for help from the Pokémon!"

"An adult king whale weighs up to 400kg."

Among a group of students who started running, the three people standing still stood out.

Kitazawa Lingyou ignored the confused looks of the students around him and continued, "If you want to borrow the power of Pokémon, Grass-type, Water-type, and Fighting-type are the first choice."

"Grass-types can use vine whips to help, fighting-types have great strength, and water-types..."

Jill glanced at Psyduck beside him, "What can I do?"

"Keep it moisturized to maintain the life of the whale king." Kitazawa Lingyou said lightly, "You can't expect marine life to survive for too long on land under the bright sun."

"Let's go over and take a look first." After a brief hesitation, Shuo Guye made a decision and followed the main force.

Neither of them had any objection to this.

Psyduck even followed in his footsteps the moment Sakuya Ye opened his mouth.

"Hey, Keda——"

Jill looked at the two Pokémon who were in perfect harmony with each other, and her outstretched hand was suspended in the air before she slowly retracted it.

As Kitazawa Reisuke passed by him, he heard a whisper.

"That's great, Psyduck."

----

"Oh my god..."

Jill stopped and stared at the behemoth in front of her in disbelief.

"Isn't this too big?!"

Hearing the wailing of the Roaring Whale King, Shuo Guye did not stand there in a daze like the other students who had never seen the world, but immediately gave the order.

"Psyduck, pray for rain!"

A dark cloud hung over the whale king.

As drops of rain fell, the King Whale's constant rolling on the beach finally eased a lot.

"What are you doing standing still?"

Andy looked at the group of useless students with disappointment.

"Help!"

"Oh, oh! Here it comes!"

Andy watched helplessly as many students ran to the Howler Whale King in the rain, and stretched out their hands to push him with all their strength.

He only felt a mouthful of old blood rising up to his throat, and after beating his throat for a long time he was barely able to make a sound.

"Use the Hunting Cursor!" Andy rolled his eyes and held his forehead with his hand. "Stop, Sasuke! I told you to use the Hunting Cursor to find Pokémon that can help, not to use it to capture King Whale!"

He roared, "Have you forgotten everything you learned in class? What's the point of catching the king whale with a hunting cursor? Is it showing signs of anxiety or uncontrollable behavior now?!"

The student who was scolded shrank his neck and ran away dejectedly under the teacher's fiery gaze.

After a while, he caught a metalpod from a coconut tree and excitedly brought it to Andy to claim credit.

Andy stared at Metapod: ...

"Looking for someone who can help..."

Andy suppressed his anger and squeezed out the last words from between his teeth.

"Whoever causes trouble for me again will fail the course!"

the other side

"I have an idea."

Shuoya Ye said to Jill, "We can use the freezing ray to create an ice layer to reduce friction and help the whale king return to the sea."

"The ice..." Jill looked back at the whale king who was several people tall, "Can you withstand it?"

"I can't bear it." Kitazawa Lingyou shook his head.

Sakuya Ye smiled and pressed down Psyduck's raised hand.

"So we can't just rely on Psyduck's power. We also need to find other water and ice Pokémon."

"No problem!" Jill raised the hunting cursor, "The beach is full of water Pokémon, leave it to me!"

After saying that, she looked at Sakutani Ye and Kitazawa Lingyou with a little worry, "But you, you have neither Poké Balls nor Hunting Cursors..."

"Ibrahimovic is here."

But Psyduck's raised hand was pressed down by Sakuya again, and Eevee puffed out his chest proudly.

"We need to trouble Psyduck to continue to provide water for King Whale, so please stay here for now."

Psyduck, who was pushed next to Eevee to show off, was not disturbed at all. He patted his chest and showed a determined expression.

I'll take action, don't worry!

Sakutani Ye rubbed Psyduck's furry head several times until Eevee came up to him in dissatisfaction. Then he withdrew his hand, picked up the vying Eevee in his arms, and stood up.

"Let's split up and try to resolve this as quickly as possible."

Sakuya Ye smiled at Jill who still seemed to have concerns, "Rangers have their own solutions, and trainers have their own solutions."

"Nothing a Pokémon battle can't solve, right?"

"OK then."

After realizing that she was worrying too much, Jill looked towards the place where the Pokémon were gathered not far away.

"There seem to be a lot of water Pokémon over there..."

"Then let's be responsible for finding ice-type Pokémon." Sakuya Ye looked at Kitazawa Reiyuu.

He understood and said, "White Sea Lion, Thorny Shell, Lapras, Seal Ball, Sea Lion, Difang Sea Lion. These are the Ice Pokémon that appeared on this beach."

"Operation to rescue the king whale is on!"
