Pokémon: I have a game menu

After walking out of the cave for a while, the three met an old man with a yellow backpack and a white helmet. It was normal to have people in the underground passage. The exploration suit could be bought in almost every town in the Sinnoh region. There were still many people interested in the underground cave. It would be strange if Naoki and the other two were the only ones in the cave.

However, this uncle was definitely not an ordinary person, as he could attract the attention of Naoki and the other two. He took the hammer from his exploration kit and hammered the wall on the side of the cave. His movements were bold, but his expression was extremely focused, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

"Oh! Found it! Found it!" The uncle smashed it with a hammer, and a huge red jade appeared. Then, the uncle put down the hammer, changed to a mattock, and carefully knocked open the rock layer on the surface of the red jade. Then, he gently scratched it with his gloved hand, and the red jade fell into his hand.

"Huh?! Are you three here to explore the underground cave as well?" The uncle turned around and jumped in fright. He was so serious that he didn't notice that there were three more people behind him. When he found out that there were only three young children behind him, he immediately relaxed, smiled, and raised the red jade in his hand.

"I didn't expect that kids like you would like this kind of place! Do you want me to teach you how to mine the treasures inside the walls? I have quite a bit of experience!" The uncle smiled, and that smile was like that of a fisherman who caught a big fish and got lost near his home.

"Uncle, won't there be any problems if you knock on the wall of the passage like this?" Minghui asked. He was very realistic. This was an underground passage. If it collapsed accidentally, even if he had Pokémon with rock or ground attributes, he might not be able to release them in time to save people.

The uncle smiled and nodded, "If you knock too hard or too many times, the wall will collapse. But even if the walls collapse, there is no danger. They will return to their original state soon, but the treasures in the original wall will usually disappear."

"Restore it to its original state?" Ye Zi asked doubtfully.

"The underground passages here are protected by a mysterious power and can continuously produce various treasures. How about it? Do you want to come and learn from me how to dig for treasure?" the uncle asked.

Naoki looked at the wall. In the game, there was a chance to dig out various Arceus slabs needed for the current mission from the walls of the underground cave in the Sinnoh region, and they could be obtained repeatedly, which meant that Arceus slabs were not the only items. But Naoki was not sure if this was the case in reality. If so, maybe he could try to spend some time mining here.

"Uncle, you have rich experience in treasure hunting. You must have been doing this for a long time, right?" Naoki asked.

"Of course, it's been nearly twenty years." The uncle nodded, looking proud.

"Uncle, have you ever dug up that kind of rectangular stone slab when you were treasure hunting?" Naoki asked again.

"Rectangular slab of stone?" The uncle was silent for a moment.

"More than ten years ago, I did dig up a rectangular stone slab that looked very similar to the green fragment, but it was larger and complete. I later sold it to the Relics Fans Association."

Naoki's eyes lit up. The slate that looked very similar to the green fragments was most likely the emerald green slate that represented the grass attribute. Naoki quickly asked, "Uncle, where is the Ruins Fans Association you mentioned?"

The uncle looked at Naoki with some surprise. It was not uncommon for children of this age to like collecting all kinds of stones, but not many were so persistent. The uncle hesitated for a moment and said, "The Ruins Fans Association is not an association in the Alliance. It is located in the northern part of the Sinnoh region. A few years ago, the Pokémon League originally wanted to set up a new alliance headquarters there, but a war broke out there, so the matter was left unresolved."

"If you really want that stone tablet, you can pay attention to the news over there. When the war over there stops, the Pokémon League should continue to try to move in there. When you grow up a little, maybe you can go over there and take a look."

Naoki was silent for a moment. It was indeed very difficult to deal with a region where the Pokémon League had not yet settled in and was still in the midst of a war. There were too many places in the world without a Pokémon League, just like the Alola region in the seventh generation. Originally, there was no Pokémon League. It was Professor Kukui who traveled across the ocean to the Kanto region to request the Pokémon League to settle in the Alola region.

The Alola region is protected by the "Island God" and can actually live well without the Pokémon League, but most places in this world are in chaos. After all, the power of Pokémon as a weapon is more terrifying than most firearms, and there will always be ambitious people who try to use the power of Pokémon to do something.

It seems that this main quest is much more difficult than imagined! Naoki sighed in his heart. If the Arceus tablet is the only item, and it is really scattered "all over the world", including places that the Pokémon League has not yet known, this quest may not be completed in a lifetime.

"Uncle, thank you for the information." Naoki felt that the task of collecting stone tablets would most likely require the help of the entire Pokémon League. If he wanted to find more than ten stone tablets around the world by his own strength, he would probably die of old age.

"You're welcome! You're welcome! So do you want to learn how to dig for treasure?" The uncle waved his hands, very happy that Naoki listened to what he said.

Naoki clearly realized that he had a long way to go, and decided to just let it go as it was before, thinking that since it was already like this, he might as well just give up and forget about treasure hunting. For a non-African like him, he would only dig up some junk.

"Are you interested?" Naoki looked at Ye Zi and Minghui.

Ye Zi didn't express any opinion, and it was obvious that she had no interest, but if Naoki was interested, she would probably stay and accompany him.

Minghui scratched his head: "Although I really want to learn, our main task today is to catch Pokémon, right?"

It seems that Minghui is not interested in stones. It seems that there are no Pokémon with rock, ground, and steel attributes in his team. If Minghui and Daigo knew each other, their relationship would not be very good...
