Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 Eevee Can't Attack

  Pokémon language is a subject that cannot be avoided by Pokémon scholars in any field. If the language of all Pokémon can be truly deciphered, various problems that have plagued the academic community for many years may be solved.

  However, unlike the clear directionality of human language, the syllables of Pokémon language are too simple, and different meanings are expressed only through subtle tones and frequencies. The pronunciation patterns of different types of Pokémon are also different, which poses a huge challenge to deciphering the Pokémon language.

  Well... in a sense, I suddenly have a skill that can save me decades of detours. Maybe I should go back to Pallet Town and discuss the issue of salary and benefits with Professor Oak?

  "Hey, are you listening to me?"

  The complaining voice beside his ear interrupted Qianye's thoughts, and he turned his head to look at the orange-haired girl walking beside him.

  Dressed in a clean and neat style, with a very personal hairstyle, tiny orange strands of hair hanging down her cheeks, and a wild swan-like white neck held high. Following the line of sight down, one can see the delicate clavicle, with two clear lines, wild yet natural.

  What? You ask me why I don't continue describing it? Please, as a young man in Kanto in the new century, I will not do such vulgar and rude things as staring at a girl's breasts! Besides, there is nothing to see on the plain without any mountains...

  "Ah, I was just thinking about something else... sorry sorry."

  "It's okay." Although she said that, for some reason Xiaoxia suddenly felt very unhappy. Could it be that Xiaozhi, that annoying guy, was saying bad things about me?

  After a certain Pallet Town boy was innocently blamed, Xiaoxia calmed down a little and then spoke:

  "Since you didn't hear me just now, let me introduce myself again - I'm Xiaoxia, from Cerulean City."

  "I'm Qianye from Pallet Town."

  Pallet Town again? Xiaoxia glanced at the Nibi badge on her waist and the two Pokémon, one black and one white, surrounding Qianye, and she understood something in an instant:

  "Are you also a trainer who is traveling to gain experience?"

  Another person who thinks he is a Pokémon trainer... Qianye was too lazy to correct this misunderstanding of him. He just responded vaguely without giving a clear answer.

  However, this reaction made Xiaoxia more resolute in her judgment. She had originally approached him out of curiosity about his conversation with Pokémon, but as they chatted, she discovered that his knowledge of Pokémon was so rich that it was exciting, and with that new dark gray gym badge—

  There is no doubt that this is an extremely powerful Pokémon Trainer... and judging by his knowledge, he is definitely not a newcomer!

  Not knowing that he had been given some strange settings in other people's minds, Qianye just felt that it was almost time to separate. After all, if they took a few more steps forward, they would be out of the scope of Nibi City.

  "Well, it was really fun chatting with you. I look forward to seeing you again next time... By the way!"

  As she waved goodbye, Xiaoxia suddenly remembered something. She quickly took out a piece of letter from her backpack and said, "You are going to Hualan City next, right? Can you do me a favor? Please give this letter to the three water ballet sisters in Hualan City..."

  …

  Mt. Tsukimi is a famous mountain close to Nibi City. More than 90% of Nibi City's specialty stones are mined from the caves of Mt. Tsukimi. At the same time, it is also the fastest passage from Nibi City to Cerulean City.

  However, convenience and speed also bring certain risks. The Moon Viewing Mountain Cave is the habitat of many Pokémon, some of which are quite aggressive, and there are many cases of travelers being attacked. But on the other hand, this is also a good place for new trainers to expand their teams.

  In the dim light, several Zubats and Gulps folded their purple wings and quietly hung upside down on the stalactites. Suddenly, they seemed to smell something, made a few piercing noises, and flew away in all directions.

  One of the young Zubats flapped its wings and flew through several caves with a clear purpose, finally landing on the shoulder of a black-haired boy who was walking.

  "Ha, you smelled it. You have a really good nose."

  Qianye chuckled and took out a blood bag from the backpack behind him. This was something he had prepared in advance at the Pokémon Center in Nibe City, but he didn't expect to use it so soon.

  The bat Pokémon that lives in the caves of Mt. Tsukimi all year round has always had a bad reputation due to its habit of sucking blood, but what few people know is that their population is quite united. The Big Mouth Bat that successfully obtains food will share the blood it has sucked with its hungry companions.

  One thing that Pokémon scholars must remember is to let go of all their fear and disgust towards Pokémon, because these things will breed prejudices that cloud cognition. This was the first sentence that Professor Oak said to Qianye when he first entered the institute, and he has always kept it in mind.

  The young Zubat did not take the blood bag immediately. Instead, it rubbed Qianye's neck affectionately before showing its fangs and biting through the seal of the blood bag.

  The unevolved Zubat didn't have a big appetite, and when its blood bag was less than half full, it burped contentedly. However, it didn't fly away after eating and drinking its fill, and continued to stay on Qianye's shoulder.

This is a symbol of friendship. When the fellow tribesmen in the cave see this scene, they will naturally not come to disturb Qian Ye and his group.

  "Why do we have to please them... If they really dare to attack us, we can just beat them until they dare not have any bad intentions."

  Kokodora on the other shoulder said lazily, and with just an accidental glance from her azure eyes, the Zubat's purple hair stood up unconsciously.

  "Don't always think of solving problems with violence."

  Qianye calmed Zubat down and looked at Kokodora helplessly. He really didn't know what to say to this problem child beside him. Kokodora was already like this, and if he evolved into Aoskodora, he wouldn't become some sadistic queen, hiss...

  Realizing that his thoughts were sliding in a dangerous direction, Qianye stopped immediately. It was a close call, he almost got attacked by his childhood dark history again.

  "Zuobat is fine, Kokodora is just..."

  Noticing that the little bat on his shoulder had moved again, he originally thought that it was still afraid of Kokodora's intimidation, but he soon realized that this was not the reason -

  Because a burst of noisy, abusive voices also reached Qianye's ears.

  "Woo?" Heizi raised his furry head and looked at him inquiringly.

  After hesitating for a moment, Qianye made a decision, "Let's go and see what's going on."

  The sound hit the rock wall and continued to echo in the cave. As the distance got closer, the noise became louder and clearer:

  "You can't learn this or that, so why are you still following me? Go back as soon as possible!"

  Qian Ye frowned and quickened his pace. After climbing over a low rock wall, he saw a boy not much different from his age with a sullen face, loudly scolding a little fellow with brown fur, long ears and a fluffy tail.

  That's... Ibrahimovic?

  Eevee is a Pokémon that is loved and watched by people all over the world. In addition to its cute appearance that appeals to both men and women, what is more important is that it has the richest evolutionary routes in the Pokémon world. Together with the new form of Fairy Sylph Eevee that was discovered in recent years, it has a total of eight evolutionary forms. Therefore, it is also called the "Evolved Pokémon" by the academic community.

  However, the popular Eevee didn't seem to be treated well by this boy. The hair around its body was drooping and its color was very dull. Its small body was covered with various scars, some of which were probably left by the invasion of various attribute energies during Pokémon battles, while others... seemed more like man-made products.

  The boy became more and more agitated as he cursed. In a rage, he raised his thigh and kicked Ibrahimovic: "Useless thing, don't you like being beaten? Then I'll let you be beaten to your heart's content!"

  After saying that, he was about to kick Ibrahimovic who had just been kicked to the ground. However, the huge pulling force from his shoulder made him lose his balance and he almost fell to the ground.

  "If you have something to say, why don't you just talk it out nicely? There's no need to use force." The boy turned around and saw Qianye's slightly unhappy face.

  He originally thought it was someone else's family affair and didn't want to interfere too much, but after seeing the boy starting to fight after a disagreement, he couldn't help himself.

  "Who are you..." I wanted to quickly get rid of this nosy guy who came out of nowhere, but the strength of the hand on my shoulder was so strong that I couldn't break free at all, and I even felt a faint pain of being crushed.

  "What do you know? This guy hasn't learned a single attack move since he followed me. Every time there's a Pokémon battle, he can only take a one-sided beating on the field. What's the use of having such a useless Pokémon!?"

  Hearing the boy's merciless rebuke, Ibrahimovic, who had just supported his body with his limbs, lowered his head dejectedly, and the light in his round eyes seemed to have disappeared.

  "If you like, I'll leave this kind of trash to you. Don't bother me anymore!"

  Feeling the force on his shoulder loosen slightly, the boy shook off Qianye's hand, glanced at the Eevee below, and strode forward without looking back.

  "Bu-yi!"

  Seeing his trainer ignore him and leave, Eevee screamed in panic and was about to take a step forward to catch up, but his leg injury recurred at this moment. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

  "Bu Yi..." The mournful voice echoed in the cave, but failed to cause the figure in sight to stop for even a moment until it completely disappeared.
