There seems to be something wrong with these Pokémon

The sun is shining and the breeze is blowing.

It was a perfect day for traveling. Bobo and Pidgeot were circling in the sky, chasing each other and playing happily.

If you ignore the discordant voice, this scene will surely fascinate many professional Pokémon photographers.

"Really?" Xiao Mao pounded his sore thigh and complained irritably, "Why should I give up taking a car and walk with you? If we took a car, we might have already reached Viridian City by now."

Xiaoye had heard this sentence countless times along the way. Although Xiaomao always looked regretful, his pace was always one step faster than others and he never stopped to rest.

"It's almost noon now, how about we take a break before setting off again?"

"you are tired?"

Xiao Mao turned around after hearing this, and shrugged helplessly after getting Xiao Ye's affirmative answer, "Then take a rest, but if you want to complete the journey by walking, you can't hold on with your physical condition."

"Well, I'll pay attention."

Xiao Ye grabbed Xiao Mao's wrist and took him to sit under the shade of a tree.

"What I mean is, if you change your mind, you can still travel in my car after arriving in Tokiwa City." Xiao Mao sat down, supported himself with his hands, closed his eyes and felt the breeze soothing his cheeks.

"I'll think about it carefully." Xiao Ye nodded and took out the cakes, bread and other food that he had baked yesterday from his backpack. He even took out a few cans of Moo Moo fresh milk produced by the big milk tank.

He shared the food with Xiao Mao, took out Snake's Poké Ball and released it.

The summoned Vine Snake looked around and saw no enemy. He looked at the small piece of fragrant cake in front of him in confusion.

"I forgot to prepare food for the Pokémon, so I can only ask you to try this."

Confused, the vine snake stretched out its vines and poked the soft and chewy cake, but it got stuck to the cream on the top and couldn't get rid of it.

Seeing this, Xiaoye quickly took out a handkerchief to help it wipe off the cream, and patiently explained, "This thing is called cake. It is a kind of dessert that we like to eat. It may taste sweet."

Vine Snake indicated that he understood, stretched out his short hands to lift up the cake, and bit off a small piece.

"After all, this is human food, so it may not suit your taste. If you don't like it, don't force yourself." Xiaoye raised his hand, and a blue fruit appeared in his hand. "Professor Oak gave me a few blue orange fruits before. If you really think the taste is weird, you can try this. It should be more in line with your eating habits."

But the vine snake completely ignored the fruit that looked plump and juicy. After tasting the cake, its eyes lit up and it immediately took another bite, its face full of happiness.

"It seems that the vine snake can still accept this kind of food." Xiao Ye smiled and put the fruit in his pocket in case of emergency.

He turned to Xiao Mao and said, "Let Squirtle out to taste the cake. I have prepared a lot, don't worry."

After hearing this, Xiao Mao also took out the Poké Ball. As a white light flashed, Squirtle also got a cake with a small apple on it.

When Snake saw Squirtle coming out, he walked up to the hesitant Squirtle with the half-eaten cake in his arms, and described how delicious the cake was with shining eyes.

Squirtle nodded doubtfully, dipped his paw into a little cream, and put it in his mouth to taste it.

"Jenny——!"

Squirtle's face was distorted, and his two short hands kept scratching his chin.

"It seems that Squirtle is still not used to this taste." Xiaoye's expression tensed, and he hurriedly poured the two bottles of Moo Moo Milk in his hand into the plate and placed it in front of Squirtle and Snake. At the same time, he gave Squirtle, who was in so much pain that he was spitting water, a few blue orange fruits.

Snake looked suspiciously at the cake with a small corner missing that Squirtle had thrown on the ground, and used its vines to pick up a little bit and put it to its mouth.

[You smell the same as me, why are you reacting so strangely?] A big question mark appeared on Snake's head, and he asked the grim-looking Squirtle.

[This tastes weird.] Squirtle cried half dead, [And I don’t like sweet tastes.]

Snake withdrew his gaze, finished his cake in one or two bites, trotted to Squirtle and patted its shell to comfort it, then turned around, picked up the cake that Squirtle despised, and started eating it again with satisfaction.

"Xiao Mao, eat something too. You'll have more energy to continue on your journey."

After seeing that there was no problem with the Pokémon, Xiao Ye finally began to enjoy his lunch. At the same time, he greeted Xiao Mao who was still sitting aside to rest.

Xiao Mao had almost finished his rest by now. He moved over, picked up the long strip of bread, and was about to take a bite.

A dark shadow suddenly rushed out from the big tree they were leaning against, passed by Xiaomao's nose and snatched the bread that was about to be put into his mouth.

Xiao Mao, who had already opened his mouth and was about to bite down, obviously had not expected such a sudden change to happen. When he took a bite, his two rows of teeth knocked against each other.

"Ouch!" Xiao Mao covered his sore teeth and exclaimed, "What the hell!"

"It's Bobo!" Xiao Ye saw the black shadow clearly. Before Bobo ran away, he quickly commanded, "Vine Snake, catch it, use the vine whip!"

The vine snake that was named was stunned, and reluctantly put down the cake it had just bought. It immediately stood up, stretched out its green vines from both sides, grabbed Bobo who had not yet flown far, and pulled it back to the ground.

Bobo, who was forcibly pulled down from the air, flapped his wings, trying to break free from the control of the vines.

But the strange thing is that even after falling from such a high place, Bobo still held the bread he snatched from Xiaomao's mouth tightly with his claws and was unwilling to let go.

"Ha, you've been caught!" Xiao Mao's eyes were ablaze with anger. "Let's see how you can run away. As an apology for my teeth, you should be subdued by me obediently."

"Leafy let it go, Squirtle use water gun!"

Xiao Ye obediently let the Teng Teng Snake untie the restraints on Bobo, and a stream of water sprayed out from his side, shooting towards Bobo.

"boom--"

The sand was flying and the sound of the waves inside had stopped.

Xiao Mao smiled, took off the Poké Ball from his waist, gave it a light kiss, and threw it into the center of the smoke.

"Go ahead, my Poké Ball."

Xiao Ye also nervously watched the trajectory of the Poké Ball. This was the first time he saw a Pokémon being captured, and he couldn't help but get excited.

But they only heard the dull sound of the Poké Ball hitting the ground, and did not hear the clear prompt sound of the Pokémon entering the Poké Ball.

"JennyJenny——"

Just when they were confused, Squirtle behind them suddenly shouted, and Xiao Mao and Xiao Ye immediately turned around to look.

Bobo, who had just been lying on the ground unable to move, had now run to where their lunch was placed, and was enjoying their desserts and milk with relish.

Even the cake that the Vine Snake carefully put down and planned to eat after the battle could not escape Bobo's clutches and had already gone into its stomach.

Instantly ignited by anger, Snakevine attacked Pidgeot on its own without waiting for the trainer's instructions, and the vine whip hit Pidgeot's body.

Bobo cried out in pain from being hit and quickly hid behind Xiaoye, who was emitting the aroma of food. He took a blue orange fruit from his pocket, stood on Xiaoye's shoulder and started eating it.

When Snake saw that the Pidgeot who ruined its delicious food flew onto its trainer's shoulder, it became even more furious and immediately turned its vines to fly towards Xiaoye.

"Wait! Vine Snake!"

Xiaoye's face felt itchy from being rubbed by Bobo's fur. When he saw the vines rushing towards him, he hurriedly tried to stop them.

Forced to stop, the vine snake could only reluctantly retract its vines, take another piece of cake from Xiaoye's bag, and eat it alone in a sullen manner.

Xiaoye turned his head and looked at Bobo, and under his urging gaze, he tentatively took out another blue orange fruit and put it in his hand.

Bobo's eyes lit up and he immediately bent down to start eating, which scared Xiaoye who thought he was going to be attacked.

"What's wrong with this Pidgeot?" Xiao Mao's face was full of disgust. "Why is he just like that idiot Xiaozhi, looking like a starving ghost reincarnated."

"I don't know." Xiao Ye shook his head and took out a blue orange fruit and handed it to Bobo. "But it looks like he has been hungry for a long time, so he suddenly attacked us just now, just to eat."

"Fortunately, I didn't catch it." Xiao Mao's mind flashed with the image of Xiao Zhi with wings surrounding him every day asking for food, and he felt a little scared.

Afterwards, Xiao Ye took Bobo back to tidy up the messy lunch, while Xiao Mao took out another piece of bread. When he opened his mouth, he kept glancing at Bobo, fearing that it would suddenly attack again.

"No, Pidgeot. You can't eat anymore." Xiaoye looked at Pidgeot's eager eyes and refused. "Eating too much at once is not good for your health. Each Pokémon can only eat so much."

He pointed at the lunch in front of Snake and Squirtle and said, "Look, the two of them combined don't eat as much as you do. You definitely can't eat any more."

When Bobo heard this, his head immediately drooped, but after a moment it seemed as if it had thought of a good idea, and spread its wings and flew towards the treetops.

"Ha, you run away after you're full. You're exactly like Xiaozhi." Xiaomao snorted coldly, and finally felt relieved to eat his bread.

Just as he opened his mouth again, a black shadow fell from the tree again and hit Xiao Mao's head hard, knocking him to the ground.

“JennyJenny——!”

"Squirtle?" Xiao Ye looked up at the tree in disbelief. "Why is there a Squirtle on the tree?"

Xiao Mao, who was stunned by the blow, covered his head and climbed up, saying in pain, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could Squirtle come from..."

Xiao Mao was stunned. There really was a Squirtle falling from the tree and hitting him on the head!

"Squirtle——" Xiaomao's Squirtle seemed extremely excited when he saw his companion. He ran towards the Squirtle that fell from the tree, and the Squirtle that fell from the tree also ran towards Xiaomao's Squirtle at the same time.

Just when they were about to hug each other, the Squirtle that fell from the tree kicked Xiaomao's Squirtle away and ran straight towards Xiaoye, staring at the cake in his hand.

"Do you want to eat it too?" Xiao Ye held up the cake in his hand, neither putting it down nor holding it up, and asked awkwardly, "Did Bobo tell you that?"

The Squirtle that fell from the tree nodded, jumped up without hesitation and snatched the cake from Xiaoye's hand, ate it in one bite, and then climbed up the tree again while wagging its tail.

"You must be kidding." Xiao Mao comforted the hurt Squirtle while staring at Squirtle climbing the tree with wide eyes. "How can Squirtle climb a tree?"

But that was the fact. After a while, the agile Squirtle disappeared and hid in the tree canopy.

"I don't think Pidgeot will advertise this place as a place that provides free food to other Pokémon." Xiaoye sighed and took out the last piece of cake from the bag. "If you come again, there will be no food..."

Before he finished speaking, a black shadow appeared again and landed in front of Xiao Ye.

"This is..." Xiao Mao stretched out his fingers tremblingly, feeling that his common sense was challenged.

The vine snake was also stunned, and it didn't react when the cake in its hand fell to the ground.

"Vine snake?" Xiaoye's brain nerves were severely stimulated, and he looked dumbfounded even when the last piece of cake in his hand was snatched away by the vines of the vine snake.

"Isn't this a Pokémon from the Unova region? Why did it appear in the Kanto region?"

While this vine snake was busy eating, Xiaoye's vine snake was talking to it excitedly, just like Xiaomao's Squirtle before.

Maybe the vine snake thought that Xiaoye's vine snake was too noisy and disturbed its mood for eating, so it rolled up Xiaoye's vine snake with two vines and threw it out.

"Vine Snake!"

Xiaoye quickly flew over and caught the vine snake, but it looked like it had lost its soul, with tears about to burst out of its eyes.

"Why do all the Pokémon on this tree look so counterintuitive?" Xiao Mao was so shocked that he didn't forget to complain about Xiaozhi. "Why not just name this tree 'Xiaozhi Tree'? That brainless idiot will definitely be very happy after hearing it."

"It's all..." Xiao Ye touched the big leaf tail of the vine snake to comfort it, and was suddenly reminded by Xiao Mao's words. He lowered his head and whispered in the ear of the vine snake.

The vine snake nodded after receiving the order, and slowly approached the vine snake without making any sound.

At this time, the vine snake that had just eaten its fill obviously did not feel the approaching danger and lay on the ground with its round belly.

A vine whip suddenly tied it up, and as the feeling of weightlessness came, it was greeted by the white glowing head of a small-leaf vine snake.

How could it have known that something like this would happen when it had just eaten and drunk its fill? It lost consciousness without even putting up a fight and fell to the ground.

As the vine snake lost its ability to fight after falling from the tree, its previously smooth shape began to deform and stretch, and its green and cream color gradually faded.

The Pokémon, whose body was soft and flexible, did not stop transforming until it turned into a pool of purple.

"What is this...?" Xiaoye took out the Pokémon encyclopedia and obtained its information after a "beep".

"Ditto, the transformation Pokémon. It can freely reorganize the cells of its body and has the ability to transform."

"It's Ditto!" Xiao Mao finally figured out the weirdness of the tree. "I was wondering how could a tree be full of starving ghosts like Xiaozhi."

"Strange." Xiao Ye frowned and compared the fainted Pokémon in front of him with the Pokémon in the illustrated book. "The color is not right. The color of this Ditto seems to be purple, while the one in the illustrated book is more pink."

"Really?" Xiao Mao took out the illustrated book and looked at it. "It seems to be different. Let's ask grandpa when we get to Tokiwa City. He will definitely know."

"What shall we do with it?"

Xiaoye was in a dilemma. He couldn't carry it all the way to Tokiwa City, right?

"Stupid." Xiao Mao had three black lines on his head, and he raised the Poké Ball and shook it. "Of course we have to capture it! Are you going to let this Pokémon, which has troubled us for so long, go?"

"Then do you want to subdue Xiaomao?" Xiao Ye asked.

"I don't want it." Xiao Mao's face froze, and he thought of the scene where Xiaozhi with wings flew around him. "I don't want this Pokémon that looks exactly like Xiaozhi. You can capture it yourself."

"It's actually quite cute." Xiao Ye poked Ditto's body. He was fascinated by the extremely elastic touch. "But let's wait until it wakes up and ask its wishes."

"It's up to you." Xiao Mao brushed off the dust on his body, put on his schoolbag and waited. "It shouldn't be unconscious for long."

At this moment, Ditto slowly woke up, his two big eyes blinking, and he didn't know what had happened.

It remembered that it had just finished its meal, and the next second it seemed to be hit by something and lost consciousness.

Suddenly, a familiar aroma of food wafted over, and it looked in the direction of the scent.

Xiaoye put his hand in front of Ditto, with a Poké Ball in his hand.

"Ditto, would you like to join me on this journey?"

Ditto blinked his small eyes, and his thoughts were very simple.

Follow this person = have delicious food = be able to eat enough

So it nodded decisively and hit the Poké Ball by itself. After hearing a clear "ding" sound, this greedy Ditto joined Xiaoye's team.

"Please take care of me, Ditto."

Xiaoye's heart was pounding and her face flushed.

This is the first Pokémon he captured! This is his Ditto!

"Congratulations, Xiaoye." Xiaomao picked up his backpack and said, "I don't want to interrupt you, but thanks to it, our food supply has been completely eaten up. If we can't reach Changpan City today, we'll see Miss Junsha riding a motorcycle to look for our starving corpses tomorrow."

"So let's get going quickly."
