My elf trainer simulator

early morning.

Kashiwagi woke up to the urgent ringtone.

He pushed away the three big heads that were pressing down on his upper body and reached for the bedside table, "Huh?"

Why is this guy sleeping on the bedside table?

He glanced at the Galar Sun Coral in his hand speechlessly, threw it to the pillow, then reached out to touch it, and successfully touched the vibrating cell phone.

The caller ID was the familiar gibberish.

"Good morning, Doctor."

Kashiwagi got up and got out of bed. The Pokémon around him slowly woke up with his movements. The big-mouthed baby on the sofa was not yet full of sleep, so he turned over and continued to sleep.

Dr. Akihabara: "...Have you encountered Unit Zero again?" 』

"Don't worry, it's its data substitute. But it told me a lot of things, and I want to confirm its authenticity with you."

Kashiwagi asked the other party for his opinion.

Dr. Akihabara hesitated and agreed.

then.

A conversation began to test whether the other party was sincere when communicating with Unit Zero last night.

First question.

He regards being poured coffee as an attack and attempts to imprison Unit Zero.

Dr. Akihabara's tone was particularly intense after hearing this.

"Taken out of context!" First of all that is a cup of piping hot coffee! Secondly, it suddenly attacked me in anger after quarreling with me. Sprinkling coffee was just the beginning. It then wanted to manipulate the documents on the table to attack me! And I don’t plan to imprison it, I just plan to let it return to the elf ball to calm down! 』

Kashiwagi: "..."

What is he listening to? A synopsis of a single episode of a family ethics drama?

A rebellious child and a stubborn old father?

second question.

The purpose of Unit-01 is to expand Porygon's influence.

Dr. Akihabara asked: "Let's not talk about whether it can be achieved, Kashiwagi, do you think this idea or goal is wrong? 』

"Well……"

"I heard that someone in the Alola region developed the Rotom Pokédex, and someone in the Padia region is developing a Rotom phone! And things like Rotom refrigerators, Rotom fans, Rotom washing machines, etc. have long been commonplace. If this continues, everyone will have one Rotom in the future. If Rotom can do it, why can't Porygon do it! 』

The fact is just as Dr. Akihabara said, even in the animation, the popularity of Rotom mobile phones is astonishingly high.

"..."

Kashiwagi said softly: "Sorry, doctor, I asked a stupid question."

Clearly it wants to be a smartphone!

"It's not your fault Kashiwagi, sometimes I doubt myself if I can do it. I have encountered difficulties time and time again on the show, so I am really relieved to see so many people discussing Porygon recently. Unit No. 1 is also very happy. It always hopes that it and its partners will be loved by people. 』

When Dr. Akihabara said this.

He couldn't help but glance at the elf ball where the big steel snake was.

Is it wrong to want to be popular?

It seems, no.

The third and final question.

Are the space dreams of Unit Zero and the differences between the two really irreconcilable?

Since people want to explore outer space so much, why hold on to it?

It's better to be more generous.

Kashiwagi has been with Dr. Akihabara for so long. He didn't find him to be such a domineering and stubborn person who always speaks his mind. Instead, he felt that the latter was a bit funny.

After a short pause.

Dr. Akihabara spoke:

"...Kashiwagi, you have to understand that space travel consumes countless resources. Although Porygon Z has the ability to survive in outer space, if you want to go to the sky or sail, you can't just talk about it." Not to mention me, even some financial groups in Kanto may not be able to sustain the loss of resources. 』

"what do you mean……"

"It used to be easier than you thought to use data networks to obtain money and resources. I didn't dare to tell you the truth before because I was worried that you would go to the police impulsively. Even if Miss Junsha acquits me by then, I don't know how long it has been..."

Dr. Akihabara sighed.

Mudd!

The naughty kid stole money!

Kashiwagi's eyes went dark, "How much did it steal?"

"As far as I know, more than 2.5 billion. It always says that these are ill-gotten gains. I can't be sure whether it is true or not. Moreover, even if it is true, this money should not be controlled by it. My biggest hope at the moment is to seize it and let the money go to them. The place to be. 』

Dr. Akihabara's voice was full of exhaustion.

If it weren't for the whimsical Unit Zero, he would be happily welcoming the traffic of Porygon on the Internet now.

However, because of this guy's behavior, Dr. Akihabara had to wipe his ass.

Based on a sense of responsibility, the doctor chose to go to the data space to track the traces of Unit Zero when he could completely let it go.

It was obvious that as long as no one caught Unit Zero, it would be impossible to find him.

Dr. Akihabara: "When I found out that Unit Zero was doing this, I lost my cool and had a big fight with it. Unit Zero also destroyed the laboratory and escaped." Thinking about it now, it might have been ready to leave a long time ago, right? After all, our goals are completely different. 』

"Then you told me that there was something wrong with the suspicious patch..."

"I'm not lying to you. There is something wrong with the patch developed by Unit Zero. After researching it, I found that it contains a lot of unnecessary content. If used casually, it can easily lead to the new Porygon Z being injected with a predetermined personality and becoming a 'companion' of Unit Zero in a sense. 』

Brainwashing?

Kashiwagi knew that the Porygon and Porygon II around Dr. Akihabara were basically blank slates. They were not too tainted with outside information. To put it bluntly, they were just as silly and sweet as the original Porygon.

And once the questionable patch is accepted, the new Porygon Z is equivalent to a white paper stained with ink, and there is no way back.

He asked again: "I see. Doctor, what are those contents? About the universe and Pokémon's human rights?"

Dr. Akihabara said: "That's about it. However, there is a sentence in it that was specially marked. I think I heard someone else say it, but someone forgot it - "We are rockets traveling through the galaxy, white holes and white tomorrows are waiting for us." 』

Kashiwagi: "...Huh?"

Etc., etc.

The Porygon that was stolen by Team Rocket and used to intercept the Poké Balls in the data space was...

Unit Zero!

His eyes widened.

This guy's yearning for the universe comes from Team Rocket? Human rights awareness comes from meow? Team Rocket is obviously just shouting slogans.

But in this way, there seems to be a reason why Unit Zero went to steal and return the ill-gotten gains.

The Rocket trio call themselves villains, but they never think that what they do is wrong, and they even claim to protect world peace.

Furthermore, when it comes to rebellion, which one of Kojiro, Musashi and Meowth is not rebellious?

In addition to admiring Sakaki, they work in the Rockets purely for the bright future they envision.

Once I no longer have any interest in Sakaki and the Rockets, I will definitely change careers.

The first to lead the rebellion.

When Kashiwagi informed Dr. Akihabara of his speculation, the latter remained silent for a long time.

"It shouldn't be..."

“We’ll find out later when we meet and ask!”

He wasn't sure, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Rockets had affected Unit Zero. Otherwise, why would Unit 0 not have had any problems and only Unit Zero went crazy alone?

I heard Dr. Akihabara vomit a wave of bitterness again.

The phone hangs up.

Kashiwagi thought to himself that if it was just a dispute over ideas and an internal family dispute between Dr. Akihabara and Unit Zero, he really had no intention of getting involved.

The public is justified in this matter, and the mother-in-law is justified in this matter.

Nowadays, Unit Zero has begun to steal money from the Internet to build spaceships. If you don't care about it, at least find the guy's true identity and give Dr. Akihabara a chance to communicate with him.

It would be best if it can be resolved peacefully.

It cannot be resolved peacefully...

He really didn't know what to do, so he took the money back by force and handed it over to Shanmin for disposal? Isn’t that just adding to people’s workload for nothing?

"Hey!"

Kashiwagi raised his head and saw Gengar smilingly handing over a toothbrush filled with toothpaste and a tea cup. He smelled the aroma of the food made by Happy Egg outside and smiled.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

Right.

What he should be most concerned about now is the Caiyu Conference. Even if he wants to repay Dr. Akihabara's kindness, it will have to be after the Caiyu Conference is over.

"Let's have a good time today! Come on and compete tomorrow!"

Kashiwagi looked around at the Pokémon around him and shouted loudly.

All Pokémon responded.

"Ouch!"

"Hey!"

"Hee!"×2

"Milo~"

"嘁——哚!!"

Bang bang bang!

Dolls of all sizes came crashing down like a storm amidst Big Mouth's angry shouts, hitting Kashiwagi and a bunch of Pokémon on the head with great precision.

Kashiwagi closed his mouth, shrunk his neck and slipped away.

The other Pokémon were also silent, not daring to provoke the sleep-deprived Big Mouth.

Boss Cordora at the door was smiling, glad that she didn't make a sound or enter the house just now——

Snapped!

A Jigglypuff doll hit it in the face.

Boscodora: "..."

It looked at the big-mouthed baby who turned over and continued to sleep speechlessly. Why didn't he think about it so much when he was sneaking snacks on weekdays?

ten minutes later.

Lucia led Xiaoguang and others to the door. She did not plan to go shopping in the city today, but planned to bring some ingredients and find a beautiful place to camp.

It just so happened that Xiaogang and Xiaoguang hadn't been camping for a long time and they missed it a little.

"Set off!"

Kashiwagi held the big-mouthed baby with a bad face, two dragon Mecias on his head, and a group of excited Pokémon behind him, striding towards the camping site.

——

The second round of the main competition.

Singles three-out-of-six format.

Competitions will be held in five medium-sized arenas within the main venue of the conference.

Compared with the previous small arena, the medium-sized arena is not only larger, but also has a special fighting environment——

In order, there is a grass field covered with green grass, a rock field where rocks and gravel coexist, a water field with several floating boards in a huge pool, and an ice field composed of ice surfaces and icebergs.

In addition to the flat ordinary venues, there are five types in total.

Which venue it's your turn to play depends purely on luck, and you can't protest if it's not suitable for your Pokémon. This is the rule of the competition.

Kashiwagi is not picky about the venue. He is mainly curious about when he will meet an "acquaintance".

In addition to Alice and Ilima, there is another trainer among the thirty-two who he knows, but the other does not know him——

Gaomei.

The water-type Pokémon trainer who once won the runner-up in the Uzumaki Island Competition in the Johto area defeated Xiaoxia, a water-type gym leader, in the top 16 battle.

He didn't think of it at first, but he met her while camping yesterday, and she happened to be the kind of big sister Xiaogang liked.

The latter ran over to show her courtesy, and then he remembered that there was such a female supporting role who had appeared once.

It's a pity that none of the three "acquaintances" met randomly.

The opponent was a female trainer with blond hair that had faded. She was wearing sportswear and slippers, and her temperament was a bit like a street gangster.

"Proficient in evil attributes? She is actually Hua Yue's little crush."

After reading the information on his phone, Kashiwagi walked out of the Pokémon Center with the Happy Egg and went straight to the arena.

He has already made up his mind.

Arena C.

The scale is twice as large, and the battle field is wider, which is helpful for Pokémon to dodge or perform more complex changes.

Kashiwagi came earlier, and the auditorium was scattered and far from full.

On the other hand, Lucia and the others were already seated, each holding a glass of milkshake and a sandwich filled to the brim with fillings and eating them. She also shook the glass next to her from afar.

"don't want."

He shook his head and mouthed.

This girl is usually under the strict dietary management of the old butler Sebastian and the agency, and rarely comes into contact with food heavy in oil and sugar. Now that the old butler is not around, Lucia gradually begins to let herself go.

Kashiwagi only reminded him, but he turned a deaf ear and waited to see the good show.

Anyway, she will definitely not end well when she returns to Liuli Gym in a few days.

Look away.

He took out a comb and smoothed the curls on both sides of Happy Egg's head. For Pokémon, a good appearance can help improve their confidence.

Indirectly improve their combat effectiveness.

Taimutai will only make the Pokémon's character become timid.

"Hey, sissy."

Disdainful voices sounded from not far away.

Kashiwagi looked around and saw that it was his opponent in this field, the female trainer with a slightly slovenly appearance.

"..."

He was too lazy to continue.

This kind of deliberately provocative talk is a waste of time. Sun Coral's behavior is sometimes very reasonable.

And seeing that he didn't talk back, his opponent was ready to say something.

Kashiwagi ignored her and walked towards the referee with a slightly wrinkled happy face.

When his opponent saw this, he grunted and did not dare to pursue him.

Provocation in private and provocation in front of the referee are not the same situation.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Audiences entered the venue one after another from four entrances and sat down with great anticipation. Most of them looked at the calm Kashiwagi, looking forward to the latter's performance.

It's nine o'clock sharp.

The second round of the main race kicked off.

Kashiwagi and his opponent each came to the trainer's seat amidst the noise. Between them was a lush grass field.

The commentator's voice came over the radio.

"A fierce competition is about to take place. What will follow is the three-out-of-six singles match in the second round of the main draw. At the C venue at the moment are Kashiwagi players from Huangtie Town! And Yamei players from Kaina City!"

Bang bang bang bang——

The audience burst into applause.

Kashiwagi caught sight of Yamei in the distance. The latter raised her eyebrows provocatively, but he just pretended not to notice.

"Hmph! It turns out that only Kagyue-sama is the real man!"

Yamei snorted, looking down on this opponent who had participated in the gorgeous competition.

Gorgeous contest?

Real men don't participate in competitions like that!
