Although this was an unusual best-of-three game...it was obvious that the third game was of little significance and could only be described as a tie with one win and one loss.
"Hmph, if you lose, you lose...I can't accept such a draw."
As if aware of Xiaozhi's thoughts, Shinji snorted coldly.
However, when faced with the friendly post-match handshake extended by Xiaozhi, Shinji did not accept it, but looked away indifferently.
"Fighting is fighting, there is no need to do meaningless things."
This made Xiaozhi frown and take back his palm, and couldn't help but say:
"I hope your fighting skills will be as good as your mouth next time."
Shinji: "..."
This was undoubtedly a provocative statement that made Shinji's brows jump.
Even Dr. Yamanashi felt nervous, fearing that in the next second, Shinji would punch Ash in the face.
However, Shinji did not use force next time. After secretly remembering Xiaozhi, he nodded to Dr. Yamanashi next to him, turned around and left, his attitude seemed very cold.
"By the way, and you...!"
While walking, Shinji suddenly stopped and threw a Poké Ball into the air.
boom!
A red light flashed, and he saw him releasing Mukeer, who had won the first battle before.
This is not a simple release, but a more direct release.
"Mugu~!"
Freed from the restraints of the Poké Ball, this Muckel returned to the state of a wild Pokémon, fluttering its wings and flying into the distance, and soon disappeared.
"Hey!! Why do you want to release your own Pokémon at will!!"
"Yes, this Muke helped you win the game just now!"
This scene immediately puzzled Xiaozhi and Xiaoguang, and they couldn't help but yelled.
You want to say that for a certain purpose, you have to release the animals as a last resort... What does this kind of direct release mean?
However, Shinji did not turn his head and left straight away, but he replied coldly:
"I can catch as many of these guys as I want... all I need is the strongest one."
When Shinji walked away, Xiaozhi and Xiaoguang still had a bit of anger on their faces. It was obvious that Shinji's impression in their hearts was not good after their first meeting.
"..."
Dr. Yamanashi did not refute or correct anything.
A trainer doesn't have only one outlook... As long as he doesn't torture or abuse his Pokémon, he won't stop it.
And looking at the released Mukeer, he didn’t even turn his head to show any nostalgia for his trainer, but flew straight away...
Since there are no bonds, there seems to be no problem with such a release?
"There are many types of trainers, and there are indeed some like Shinji who value the racial aptitude of the Pokémon itself..."
Seeing that both of them looked angry, Dr. Yamanashi could only comfort them like this.
Obviously, the two people in front of me are the same type of trainers, and they pursue emotional bonds more...
This also made Dr. Yamanashi smile.
Compared to rational and ruthless rationalists, he still prefers emotional trainers like Xiaozhi and Xiaoguang, and values the bond with Pokémon...
...
After the battle, several people returned to the research institute... Xiaozhi and Xiaoguang's backpacks were still in the house.
It was getting late, and the two people who had agreed to go together planned to stay overnight at the Elf Center first, and then head to Changshou City together tomorrow.
"Hey, who is...?"
But when they walked back from the backyard, Xiaozhi's sharp eyes suddenly found a person standing at the back door of the research institute, looking around curiously.
Wearing a dark blue classic travel coat and strappy straw sandals, it looks quite weird.
As for the ancient boy who had just woken up from his slumber, his eyes suddenly lit up after seeing Xiaozhi and his party, and he hurried over.
Gulu~!
Gulu~!
As if to speed up, he even made several rolling movements on the ground during the running process, which was very flexible.
Even at this speed, it doesn't seem to have accelerated much...?
More like a strange hobby.
"Captain Magamu! Xiaozhao! So you are here too...! It scared me to death. I thought I had traveled through time again?!"
When he ran up to him, he couldn't help but pat his chest and rejoice.
His eyes also skipped Xiaozhi and fell on Dr. Yamanashi and Xiaoguang next to him.
"?" "?"
Just this title made the two of them look at each other, and then looked at the young man in ancient costume with doubtful expressions.
Well, I can’t say that it’s a new face, I can only say that I don’t recognize him at all... I’ve never even heard of the name.
"Hey, aren't you...?"
When he took a closer look again, the face of the young man in ancient costume froze, and he naturally noticed that the two people in front of him were still somewhat different from the two people in his memory.
Although the appearance, body shape and stern expression are very similar...
But Captain Magamu's hair and beard are all black, not the gray look in front of him.
Especially in terms of temperament, the captain Magamu he knew was a great sumo wrestler, and he even wore thick armor to compete with him because of his ideals...
It was the powerful aura of a warrior + a leader, so even if he defeated the former, he would not dare to be careless.
But the "Captain Magamu" in front of him, although his face looked equally fierce, revealed more of a learned and rigorous side.
And this girl who is very similar to "Xiao Zhao" is also the same. She is similar in appearance, but up close, she is completely different.
"You traveled through time again...?"
Xiaozhi paid more attention to this word and subconsciously repeated it.
So, does this guy exist in the Sinnoh region, similar to himself and Xiaomao Xiaolan?
I don’t know why, but every time Xiaozhi comes to a new area, not only will Pikachu be slashed, but there will also be extremely special novice trainers in this area, who are vaguely related to similar individuals in other worlds.
Since he has actually traveled through time during the Black Rayquaza incident, Xiaozhi knows the concept of "parallel time and space".
But look at this posture...
So this time, did the other person's whole person directly travel from other worlds?!...
...
When several people returned to the institute, Dr. Yamanashi dismissed the other researchers, leaving only the four of them.
"I rescued you from a space-time vortex crack, and you suddenly fell out of it..."
Dr. Yamanashi said, these words made Xiaozhi secretly frightened.
Sure enough, the whole person just passed through?!
"..."
Sitting on the bedside, the young man in ancient costume lowered his head, obviously realizing that he had traveled through time again.
Looking at the two familiar faces, after some hesitation, he chose to tell a few people about his origins.
"My name is Mingyao, and I come from the Xicui area, a place called Jingjing Village...but that's not my hometown either."
