Pokémon Legends Ash
Chapter 30: Tokiwa Gym, the monkey monster causing trouble?
In a restaurant in Tokiwa City, Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia were enjoying a delicious lunch.
The next target is Tokiwa Gym, so Xiaozhi needs to fill his stomach, after all, no one goes to the battlefield on an empty stomach.
"Is this the Tokiwa Gym? It's so huge!"
After lunch, Xiaozhi and his friend successfully arrived at the Tokiwa Gym after asking a few local passers-by.
This building is huge, much bigger than the Pokémon Center. When Xiaozhi stood in front of it, he seemed as small as an ant.
"Young man, are you here to challenge the Tokiwa Gym?"
"Grandpa? Who are you?"
As Xiaozhi was gazing at the grandeur of the Tokiwa Gym, an old man in simple attire appeared.
“Ahem! I’m just a passerby from Tokiwa Gym, hahahaha~”
The old man deliberately dragged out the tone to arouse Xiaozhi's curiosity.
After hearing this reasonable yet not quite reasonable answer, Xiaozhi lowered his head in disappointment.
"Young man, are you going to challenge the Tokiwa Gym?"
"Yes, grandpa."
"Your arrival is really unfortunate. The gym leader of Tokiwa Gym has been busy recently and has been out for a while. I don't know when he will be back.
Look, isn't there a lock? And a notice."
The old man pointed to the Tokiwa Gym behind him, and Xiaozhi quickly ran to the gym entrance.
Just as the old man said, the door of Tokiwa Gym was locked, and a notice next to it said that the owner had gone out for something and would not be back for the time being.
The specific time of return is not marked, it could be tomorrow or today.
The time of return has not been determined, and Xiaozhi cannot wait here forever.
"Don't be sad, Xiaozhi, you are not even qualified to fight the Tokiwa Gym Leader right now.
Let's be pragmatic and go to Nibi City first."
"Pika Pika!" (She's right, you want me to be beaten to death by a ground-type Pokémon!)
"Yeah... I see. Thank you, Misty and Pikachu."
Xiaozhi hugged the excited Pikachu and used his strong hands to make Pikachu breathless.
"So what are your plans next? Go straight ahead, or stay in Viridian City for a few days?"
"Let's stay in Viridian City. I want to find some way to make money. I can't rely on my mother alone to support my travel expenses."
As if he was thinking of Hanako, Xiaozhi felt somewhat sad when he said this.
“You can go to the Pokémon Center and ask Miss Joy. Occasionally there will be wild Pokémon causing trouble in cities or towns, and there will also be some small competitions.
She will tell you everything, but I don’t know if they exist in Viridian City now.”
"Why don't we just ask? Let's go, Pikachu!"
Xiaozhi jumped down the slope beside the Tokiwa Gym with Pikachu in his arms, the soles of his shoes rubbing against the muddy ground, as if sparks were about to fly.
This road goes directly to the city of Tokiwa, so you don't have to return by the same route. After going around a big circle, you will arrive in Tokiwa City. It is a very convenient road.
Anyone passing by Tokiwa Gym who wants to go to the city will basically take this route.
Seeing this, Xiaoxia could only follow Xiaozhi's steps and slide down the slope.
Xiaozhi and his friends returned to the Pokémon Center again, and the sun was about to set.
On the way, I met an old man lying on the road and sleeping. I kept calling out to him and wasted a lot of time. In the end, it was his granddaughter who came out and dragged him away.
Miss Joy was cleaning. When there were no trainers visiting, she would take a little time to clean.
The purpose is to let you see the clean Pokémon Center when you open the door, so that you can calm down.
"Ms. Joy, are there any commissions or competitions in the near future?"
"Commission? It seems like there is one..."
Listening to Xiaozhi's question, Miss Joy seemed to remember something and told the story.
"Recently, street lights in Tokiwa City have been malfunctioning, according to the information provided by the maintenance electrician.
The criminal is a very mischievous monkey monster that only appears at night. It treats many street lamps as sandbags and keeps damaging them with its fists.
Junsha also tried to catch it, but it was dark at night and he was quite agile behind her, so she lost it every time.
If you catch it, the Tokiwa Police Department will reward you with a small gift, but they didn't tell me what it is.
As for the competition, there will be one in a few days, the P1 Fighting Grand Prix, and the trainer will be the winner.
Not only can you win the P1 Grand Prix gold belt, but you can also get generous prizes and bonuses, and the prizes are different every year.
As for the prize money, I remember it should be 30,000 Baoke Yuan."
Thirty thousand Baoke yuan!
Xiaozhi couldn't believe what Joey said. Don't think that 30,000 Pokémon are a small amount. If you exchange them for ordinary Poké Balls, you can buy 150 of them.
However, Xiaozhi did not need so many Poké Balls. Professor Oak had already given him some before he set out.
I have at least dozens of Poké Balls in my hands, as for the 30,000 yuan bonus.
Among them, Xiaozhi planned to use 20,000 as travel expenses to replenish travel supplies. After all, he would be passing through the Viridian Forest next.
This will certainly consume a lot of food. Although there are fruit growing in the wild, it is impossible to pray for fruit for every meal.
That is also the food source for wild Pokémon. It's okay to eat it occasionally, but eating too much will destroy the ecological balance.
As for the remaining 10,000, he planned to save it and put it in his trainer card for emergency use or to buy something interesting when he saw it during his travels and send it back to his mother as a gift.
"Okay, okay, stop imagining things. You may not win yet."
Looking at Xiaozhi standing there in a daze, Xiaoxia directly told him what he was thinking.
But this is normal. Xiaozhi is only ten years old now, and this is the age when he likes to fantasize and show off the most.
"No! I will definitely win, but the more important thing right now is that monkey monster!
We will go to the block to wait at night and we must catch it!"
"Okay~ Then let me accompany you, Senior."
Xiaoxia puffed out her chest, shook her head helplessly, and spoke in a tone like an adult playing with a child.
"Oh right! I almost forgot one thing!"
Ash said, walking towards the phone area in the corner of the Pokémon Center, looking panicked.
The main thing was that I remembered that before I left, my mother told me to call her when I arrived in Tokiwa City.
It took her so long to realize that Professor Oak might have already told her.
“Beep, beep, beep…”
"Hello, is this Satoshi? Have you arrived in Viridian City yet?"
That’s a close call. It looks like Professor Oak didn’t tell my mother.
Hearing his mother Hanako's voice, Xiaozhi finally let go of his worries and said casually:
"Yes, Mom. I'm already in Viridian City. I'm at the Pokémon Center now."
"Then you have to buy some food for yourself. If you need money, tell your mother. Keep warm on your trip and don't catch a cold..."
Listening to his mother's chatter, Xiaozhi nodded patiently in response.
Behind him, Xiaoxia was also listening to Hanako's nagging to Xiaozhi, with envy in her eyes.
Because Misty is about the same height as Satoshi, standing behind him cannot completely block his view, which also allows Hanako to discover the other person's presence.
"Xiaozhi, who is that behind you?"
"Hmm? Behind me?
Ah~ This is Xiaoxia, mom.
She is a senior whom I met on the road. She taught me about Trainer Cards and some things about Pokémon Center.
We are currently travelling together.”
"Oh, thank you so much, Xiaoxia. My Xiaozhi is a little stupid. Please take good care of him."
"No, no, auntie, I am also very grateful to Xiaozhi, he also helped me a lot."
Xiaoxia was suddenly pulled into the topic by the mother and son and became at a loss, as if she was meeting her boyfriend's parents for the first time.
Her cheeks flushed and she didn't know how to face the other person.
"Haha~ Okay, okay, I still have things to do. Xiaozhi, you and Xiaoxia have to work hard~"
Hanako blinked at the two of them, as if there was something else behind her words, and her meaningful smile made Xiaozhi stunned.
"Mom, what is she talking about? Do you know? Pikachu."
Xiaozhi scratched his cheek and looked at Pikachu on the side.
“Pika~Pika Pika Pika Pika…” (Alas~ Xiaozhi, you are really hopeless…)
Pikachu shook his head, feeling helpless towards his wooden trainer.
Xiaoxia, who was standing beside him, blushed and pulled Xiaozhi over and said, "Let's go! It's already night!"
"I understand, but Senior Xiaoxia, please don't pull my collar! I'm a little out of breath..."
The moon hangs in the dark night, clouds float in the sky, and the scattered moonlight appears and disappears from time to time.
In a bush beside a street in Tokiwa City, four figures appeared and disappeared, and a yawn was heard.
"Ha~~ I've been squatting for an hour or two. Will that monkey monster really come?"
"Of course it will. I asked Miss Joy, and this is the last street lamp that has not been destroyed by the other party! It will definitely come here!"
Xiaozhi's attitude was unquestionable, and he seemed to believe from the bottom of his heart that Monkey King would definitely come here.
Half an hour passed quietly, and Xiaoxia had already dozed off on Xiaozhi's shoulder. Pikachu and Monkey King also did the same, and sleepiness forced them to lie down beside Xiaozhi.
Will it really come?
Just when Xiaozhi himself began to doubt, the bushes opposite Xiaozhi moved and a monkey monster poked its head out from it.
It kept looking around and seemed very cautious.
Seeing this, Xiaozhi took the opportunity to poke Xiaoxia with his elbow, and woke up Pikachu and Monkey King in the process.
"Pikachu, Monkey King, wait for the opponent to get close to the street lamp and then attack. Pikachu will use electric shock first, and Monkey King will then hold the opponent down!"
"What about me? What do I do?"
"Just tie it up with me when the time comes."
"Understood!"
Xiaoxia nodded heavily, and the two Pokémon huddled together, staring closely at the monkey monster who walked out of the bush but was still looking around.
Xiaozhi looked at the other person and finally understood why he had not been caught once before.
This is really too cautious. After walking only a few steps, he looked around many times.
If they hadn't been waiting here for so long in advance, they might have let it run away.
After a few minutes, the monkey monster finally approached the street lamp.
He stretched out his fist and was about to hit it down when a crackling sound was heard.
The golden electric current illuminated the surrounding darkness, and the figures of Xiaozhi and his companions appeared before it.
It was startled, but its long-standing instinct drove it to run away.
Unfortunately, Ash had anticipated this situation and had Pikachu release the electric shock ahead of time.
The electric current was like a snake, wrapping around the monkey monster's body, sending a tingling sensation all over its body. Although it wanted to escape, its legs wouldn't obey it, and it fell to its knees.
"Monkey monster!"
Xiaozhi's Monkey King jumped, using the street lamp as a springboard, and covered his hands with the energy of splitting tiles, directly pressing it to the ground and making it unable to move.
"Now, Xiaoxia, let's go ahead and tie it up!"
Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia took the opportunity to take out the rope they had prepared in advance and caught the monkey monster that destroyed the street light.
In the police station at night, the police on duty was flipping through the newspaper to kill time. There were no cases at ordinary nights, so he was so relaxed.
But today is different. Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia brought Monkey King into the police station.
"Is that a monkey monster? Did something happen?"
The policeman who was reading a newspaper caught a glimpse of Xiaozhi and his group at the door and quickly sat up straight.
"Um... Mr. Policeman, this is the monkey monster that destroyed the street lights. We caught it."
"A monkey monster destroying street lights? It seems to be true. Let me check."
As the policeman spoke, he walked to the notice board nearby, looked left and right, and then tore off a notice.
"Um………"
He placed the notice next to the monkey-troublemaker's face and checked it carefully.
"Hmm... that look, that disdainful corner of his mouth, it looks like this is it! Please give it to me and register it."
"Ok."
Xiaozhi nodded, took the registration form handed over by the other party, and wrote down his personal information.
"By the way, are you guys living in the Pokémon Center now?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing serious, just confirming your current address. After all, you don't look like locals.
We will deliver the commissioned reward to the Pokémon Center tomorrow, and Miss Joy will give it to you then.
Thank you for your contribution to Changpan City. This monkey monster has destroyed many street lights, and the Alliance pays for the repairs every time.
We were all very worried, but this monkey monster was too cautious. We almost caught it several times, but it still escaped in the end. "
"Really? We were just lucky."
After completing the registration, Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia returned to the Pokémon Center.
It was late at night and everyone was asleep. I was already very sleepy while on stakeout, and it was already midnight when I returned from the police station.
Xiaoxia almost fell asleep while walking on the road, but she managed to hold on and successfully returned to the Pokémon Center.
But once she was in bed, she fell into a deep sleep, and the same went for Pikachu.
Only Xiaozhi was there. He used the moonlight to open the basic waveguide training manual that Xiba had given him.
According to the above content, it would be best for him now to meditate to be able to sense the waveguide at any time.
This stage is more difficult and requires the most patience, but there are auxiliary methods.
It was the pair of gloves. After Xiaozhi used the gloves to sense the waveguide several times, he took them off and sensed the waveguide on his own. He repeated this over and over again, sitting on the bed all night to practice sensing the waveguide.
Because of constant practice, he didn't even know when he fell asleep.
[Xiaozhi starts to think about making money. His goal is to win the P1 Fighting Grand Prix in Tokiwa City. Will there be strong opponents waiting for him?
The police commission has been successfully completed, what is the prize?
He is also continuing to practice waveguide, and it seems that Xiaozhi will be able to master waveguide in the near future.
What adventures await him next? Please look forward to the next chapter... To be continued...]
