Xiaozhi informed Kong Mu of Little Crocodile's condition. After a while of silence, the latter asked slowly:
"Speaking of Xiaozhi, what do you think of that trainer?"
Xiaozhi thought about it secretly and gave an answer.
"I don't think he's a very good person, and his personality is quite bad, but I don't see any problems with Pokémon for the time being...?"
Being able to establish a bond with his Pokémon in a short period of time, and even being able to escape immediately, Xiaozhi felt that it shouldn't be a big problem.
"Okay... maybe this is the fate of the little crocodile..."

Hearing this, Dr. Kongmu could only sigh secretly.
There are actually only two new trainers scheduled to come to him this year. If today's theft incident hadn't happened, the little Totodon might have had to wait until next year to meet his trainer and go on a trip.
"Xiao Zhi, if you see that trainer again in the future, if that person's character is not a problem and he has no problem with the crocodile, please ask him to come to my research institute."
Dr. Kongmu smiled bitterly.
After all, the latter even stole the illustrated book, which shows that he is a trainer with no identity at all.
This way you are not even eligible to register for the Pokémon League Tournament.
Dr. Kongmu, like Xiaozhi, also blindly guessed that the latter was a poor man who embarked on this criminal path.
Today's society is indeed developing rapidly, but the gap between rich and poor still exists, and it is impossible to meet everyone's economic and material needs.
Although he cannot help the world at the same time, Dr. Kongmu himself still feels that within the scope of his ability, he can raise a hand if he can.
"I see."
Xiaozhi nodded.
The red-haired trainer was half an old man, and Xiaozhi knew that they would meet again in the future...
...
the next morning.
After resting for a night at the Kongmu Research Institute, Xiaozhi and the three of them planned to say goodbye.
Dr. Kongmu returned the illustrated book to Xiaozhi, and now he has officially obtained the qualification to participate in the Johto Regional Alliance Conference.
"Oh, and this."
With that said, Dr. Kongmu held out another small incubator device, which now contained a wood-green Pokémon egg.
"Teacher Omu kept it with me before. He asked me to hand it over before."
Ash took the device and looked at the oval Pokémon egg with wide eyes.
The surface of the eggshell looked a bit frosted, and looked very simple. Xiaozhi could even feel the strong vitality and heartbeat coming from inside.
This was the reward Dr. Ohgi promised after he accepted the task of delivering the GS ball.
"Haha, this Pokémon egg has been in this state for almost two years. I estimate that it will be hatched in a few days. Of course, if you have nothing to do, you can go for a walk or ride a bicycle for a walk.
Speed up hatching.”
Dr. Kongmu said with a smile.
Generally speaking, a Pokémon's qualifications are actually directly proportional to the hatching time of the Pokémon egg.
Ordinary Pokémon eggs will hatch within ten weeks, and some can reach fifteen or twenty weeks, which means that about four to five months is already a very long time.
But this one lasted a full 2 years.
“The future is promising!”
Dr. Kongmu, who has studied Pokémon eggs for many years, gave this evaluation.
Although he has recently made a major discovery, riding on a Pokémon such as a pyro can actually speed up the hatching process, but not all ponies can do this, and Dr. Kongmu cannot directly draw a conclusion.
.
"Pokémon Eggs that we can look forward to in the future..."
Xiaozhi's eyes lit up.
After all, he now has two Pokémon Eggs on his body.
Of course, the other one is in the Schrödinger state of half-life and half-death, and qualifications and time have nothing to do with it.
...
Next, Xiaozhi and the other three packed up everything and prepared to hit the road.
It's just that his backpack didn't have enough space, because the wood-blue egg was about to hatch, so Xiaozhi had to temporarily store the blue-spotted egg back in the Oak Research Institute.
"Next, if you go all the way west along Route 1, you will reach Platycodon City where the Platycodon Gym is located..."
Dr. Kongmu was giving them directions before they parted.
As he was talking, he suddenly thought of something, and reminded him in a serious tone:
"By the way, let me remind you, don't tame Trumpet around there, or expose Pokémon like Trumpet on you."
"Trumpet bud?"
Xiaozhi and the three of them repeated in unison.
This kind of Pokémon is a real bad street Pokémon, right?
"Well, that city is a religious city. There is a Trumpet Bud Tower built in it. It believes in Pokémon like Trumpet Bud. There, the monks have a very high status. They do not allow ordinary people except them to capture or capture Pokémon at will.
It’s about having trumpet buds.”
Dr. Kongmu reminded.
The Johto area is different from the Kanto area. The inland area is actually very traditional, with many temples built with long traditions.
This is not only the case in Kikyo City, but also in the neighboring Yuanzhu City.
It is said that a few days ago, a young girl trainer from out of town accidentally tamed a trumpet bud on the roadside. As a result, as soon as he entered the city, he was forcibly carried to the temple by several monks.
Until now, I am still restricted from personal freedom.
Several people nodded with cautious expressions on their faces. After expressing their gratitude again and again, they said goodbye.
...
...
...
A few days later.
A leisurely afternoon.
On Route 2, in a flat jungle clearing, Xiaozhi and the others had put down their backpacks and were sitting on the ground to rest after enjoying Xiaogang's lunch.
To the west of Ruoye Town is Route 1 with open grassland, and then after passing an unknown town, there is Route 2, a combination of lawns, shrubs, and jungles.
I have to say that the greening in the Johto area is much better than in the Kanto area, with dense jungles everywhere.
And unlike the Kanto region, the oak and camphor trees here look very strange. Each one is an ancient tree more than twenty meters high. There are no branched leaves in the ten meters below, just dark brown and thick.
The tree trunk body.
More than ten meters above, there is a sudden explosion of lush branches and leaves, so densely packed that it is impossible to see what is on it.
"Didi. The characteristic skills of the Johto area: headbutt, hitting oak trees, camphor trees, and pine trees with your head. Under severe vibration, there will be a chance of falling berries, props, Pokémon, and other strange things."
"PS: It must be a headbutt move. Other moves that can cause shock will not work."
The illustrated book introduced the regional characteristics of the Johto area to a few people.
This is metaphysics. If you use a steel tail against a tree to create a vibration effect, even if you break the tree in half, no good things will come out.
Ash glanced around, and it seemed that the only one in his team who knew the "headbutt" trick was the violent fossil Pokémon Cephalosaurus.
However, it recently got very close to the Sky Overlord fossil pterosaur in the backyard, so Xiaozhi did not take it out today.
"Okay! Pikachu, it's time to move!"
Seeing that it was still early, Xiaozhi simply stood up and planned to take this opportunity to exercise.
He was about to arrive in Platycodon City where the first gym was located, and he didn't want to fail at the beginning.
