the pokémon world begins with being picked up by gardevoir

**Chapter 420: Detestable**

"Mister Steel, don't make things difficult for yourself. You're on my Territory, it's better to be obedient." Padru threatened.

"Oh dear, I'm so scared." Bai Feng said in an exaggerated tone. "I'd really like to see what you can do to me if I'm not obedient." As he spoke, he walked up to Padru, reached out, and lightly patted Padru's face twice.

Pat pat~~ It didn't hurt much, but it was extremely humiliating.

Padru felt utterly humiliated. How long had it been since he'd suffered such humiliation? The last time was when Archer came to Johto for an inspection, and now Archer was in Pokémon League Prison.

Bai Feng sneered. He loved seeing Padru's expression of being annoyed with him but unable to do anything about it.

"Officer Jenny won't be here for a while. Come on, take me to see your Factory!" Bai Feng said.

"No..."

Just as Padru was about to refuse, he found himself uncontrollably following Bai Feng out of the Office.

"No, we can't go!" Padru said, his face filled with panic.

Bai Feng said as he walked, "Can't go? It seems there's something very wrong with your Factory. Then I absolutely must go."

Padru finally stopped being stubborn. He pleaded, "Mister Steel, I was wrong. I shouldn't have provoked you, sir. I'll arrange for someone to send you back right away, alright?"

Bai Feng said dismissively, "Since you invited me here, it won't be so easy to simply ask me to leave now."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Padru seemed to understand something. "I can compensate you. Money, you name the amount, and I'll transfer it to you immediately. I guarantee you won't lack money for the rest of your life."

"Money?" Bai Feng chuckled. I have plenty of money, and it's clean. He glanced at Padru and said, "But I'm still interested in the secret inside your Factory."

"Mister Steel, please be merciful. As long as you're willing to leave, I can agree to any request you have." Padru never expected that all his efforts would bring back a 'grand ancestor'.

"You can agree to any request?" Bai Feng countered.

"Yes, yes, yes! Just say the word." Padru nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice.

"Then what if I ask you to turn yourself in?" Bai Feng said.

"You must be joking. Turn myself in... I'm an honest person, a law-abiding businessman..." Padru chuckled awkwardly.

"So, we can't reach an agreement?" Bai Feng spread his hands.

Bai Feng no longer paid attention to Padru and walked straight towards the Factory behind the building. The Staff Member inside the building saw their Boss following Bai Feng. Although they felt strange, they didn't stop them.

Padru really wanted to ask the Employee for help, but every time he tried to speak to anyone else, he found he couldn't make a sound.

Soon, Bai Feng arrived at Pal Company's Poké Ball manufacturing Factory. The security here was very strict, with guards everywhere patrolling with Pokémon.

However, since Bai Feng was accompanied by the company's Boss, no one dared to step forward and stop him, so he entered the Factory without any hindrance.

To Bai Feng's surprise, there weren't many people inside the Factory. He only saw machines running everywhere, with one semi-finished Poké Ball after another lying on the machine belts.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly heard crying, followed by bursts of scolding and angry shouting.

"You dare to run away?" Pat pat~~

"And you incited other Pokémon to run away!" Pat pat~~

"You've got some nerve!" Pat pat~~~

"If I don't teach you a good lesson today, you probably won't know how many eyes Ho-Oh has!" Pat pat~~~

"There are so many Pokémon in this world. If you don't do it, plenty of other Pokémon will!" Pat pat~~

...

Bai Feng followed the sound and found a man in a black uniform in the corner, angrily scolding a Machoke while fiercely whipping it with a whip. The Machoke was curled up, crying.

"Stop!"

Seeing this scene, Bai Feng was furious. He strode forward and snatched the whip from the man's hand.

"Who are you..."

Just as the man was about to explode in anger, he noticed Padru standing beside Bai Feng. His face changed, and he stammered, "B-Boss..."

Bai Feng sneered, handed the whip in his hand to Padru, pointed at the man, and said to Padru, "Whip him hard for me! Whip him until I'm satisfied!"

Padru really wanted to say no, but his body was out of his control.

"B-Boss, no!" The man instinctively retreated, but didn't dare to retreat too far.

Crack~~

Padru raised the whip and fiercely struck the man.

"Ah!!!"

The man screamed and fell to the Ground.

Crack crack crack~~~

Padru whipped him again and again. The man writhed on the Ground like a maggot, his mouth filled with continuous wails.

When the man was covered in injuries, Bai Feng waved his hand, signaling Padru to stop. Although Padru couldn't speak, his gaze towards Bai Feng was full of rage. If looks could kill, Bai Feng would have been ground to dust long ago.

Only the Machoke in the corner was completely confused, not knowing what had happened. The overseers usually beat them like this, and the Boss wouldn't just not stop it, he'd even praise them for being diligent. What was going on today? Had the sun risen from the west?

The Machoke couldn't help but look at Bai Feng. Was it because of this person?

Bai Feng walked up to the Machoke and saw that it was covered in injuries, with many places even scarred. He quickly took out a Potion and applied it.

Pokémon have strong body recovery ability. Normally, after getting injured, if medicine is applied promptly, they almost never scar. If scars are left, it means the injury was not only severe at the time but also wasn't treated with medicine promptly.

Feeling the cool sensation from the wound, the Machoke unconsciously shed tears. How long had it been since it was treated so gently, ever since it came to this Factory?

The pain from the wound was quickly disappearing, but the sense of loss in the Machoke's heart grew stronger and stronger. In a Factory like this, would they ever see a better day?

After treating the Machoke's wound, Bai Feng asked, "Are you an Employee of this Factory?"

The Machoke hesitated slightly, not immediately answering Bai Feng's problem.

Bai Feng said again, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to rescue you." He had already learned some of the situation inside the Factory from the four thugs before, otherwise, he wouldn't have insisted on coming to see the Factory.

Hearing this, the Machoke's eyes lit up. "Really? Are you really here to save us?" Before this, they had organized countless acts of resistance and run away attempts, but they were all suppressed by Pal Company's thugs.

"Of course. I've already notified Officer Jenny, and Officer Jenny will be here soon." Bai Feng nodded.

Padru behind him looked at Bai Feng with gaze that was practically spitting fire.

Hearing Bai Feng's words, the Machoke was so excited it shed tears. Finally... finally, their suffering was about to end.

Bai Feng helped the Machoke up and said, "Can you take me around the Factory?"

Yes! Yes! The Machoke nodded quickly.

Just like that, led by the Machoke, Bai Feng saw the working state of all the Factory Employee. He had wondered why there were so many people patrolling outside the Factory but so few inside. It turned out that all the Staff Member in this Factory were Pokémon.

Machoke, Tyrogue, Mr. Mime, Jynx, Marill... all the Workshop were filled with working Pokémon, and these Pokémon looked very thin and exhausted.

According to the Machoke's introduction, Bai Feng learned that Pal Company, in order to save costs, required them to work twenty hours a day, didn't let them eat their fill, only allowed them to sleep two or three hours a day, and they had to work the rest of the time. The overseers would crack their whips at the slightest disagreement.

As Bai Feng walked through the Factory, the sounds filling his ears, besides the sound of the machines running, were the sound of the overseers cracking whips and the sound of the Pokémon wailing.

This place was simply a living hell.

As Bai Feng walked, he used his mobile phone to film everything he saw along the way.

Padru, following behind Bai Feng, felt a sense of utter despair. He knew his Pal Company was finished, and his plan to create a second Team Rocket was finished!

After filming everything, Bai Feng ordered Padru to halt all work in the Factory. The overseers didn't understand what was happening and thought the Boss was giving them a break!

All the overseers lined up outside the Factory according to Padru's command, waiting for Padru to inspect the work. However, at that moment, the police siren sounded.

The Employee here knew exactly what kind of shady business they were involved in, so after hearing the police siren, they all felt like they were facing a great enemy, breaking out in cold sweat, and immediately wanted to run away.

However, Bai Feng controlled Padru and shouted, "Everyone stop! This is just a drill, follow my commands."

Padru, controlled by Bai Feng, was saying things he didn't mean, and his heart was filled with immense hatred.

"Yes!" Oh, so that's what it was. Now the Employee were relieved and waited calmly for Padru's instructions.

Midway, Bai Feng made another telephone call to Officer Jenny. Before long, Officer Jenny arrived with people and surrounded the entire Pal Company.

It wasn't until Officer Jenny rushed in with Arcanine and handcuffed Padru and the Employee that they realized they were finished.

Bai Feng personally handed the video he filmed in the Factory to Officer Jenny. After watching it, Officer Jenny was furious and also felt deep self-reproach.

Such a place of evil had taken root in Goldenrod City, and she, as the security administrator of Goldenrod City, was completely unaware. It was simply a great dereliction of duty.

The more guilty she felt, the more her gaze towards the people from Pal Company was filled with rage.

"Mister Bai Feng, thank you for your help. On behalf of the Goldenrod City Police Department, I express our gratitude."

Bai Feng waved his hand and said, "No need for thanks. Please properly arrange the rescued Pokémon. They've been exploited for so long, they must have suffered considerable psychological and physical trauma."

Officer Jenny saluted Bai Feng again. "Please rest assured, we will definitely arrange everything properly."

Bai Feng nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, the Machoke brought a Mr. Mime and a Jynx to Bai Feng's side and solemnly expressed their gratitude. The three of them were representatives of the Pokémon in the Factory.

Bai Feng patted the Machoke's shoulder and said, "Heal your injuries well, live well. Things like this won't happen again in the future."

The Machoke nodded, its eyes full of tears.

"You too." Bai Feng said to Mr. Mime and Jynx.

At this time, Padru was being escorted by a police officer and passed by Bai Feng. He already knew that the Mister Steel he wanted to catch was an imposter, so he was absolutely furious and immediately started cursing at Bai Feng.

"You despicable scoundrel! How dare you trick me! Strongest Trainer in the League? Bah! It's all nonsense!"

The police officer angrily kicked Padru, and Padru immediately yelped in pain.

Bai Feng laughed, "You still have the energy to curse at me? You'd be better off thinking about how you're going to spend your days in Prison from now on. With your crimes, you're definitely going to rot in Prison!"

Padru: ...

Finally, Padru was led away dejectedly.

Afterwards, because Officer Jenny was busy, Bai Feng stood aside alone, watching the police officers arrange the Pokémon from the Factory to get into the vehicles. These Pokémon would later be distributed to Pokémon Preserve throughout Johto, and there would be dedicated people to treat their injuries.

After watching for a while, Bai Feng said to the Slowpoke in his arms, "See? How scary it is outside. You have to be careful of people from now on, otherwise, you might end up being sent to a similar Factory to do part-time work."

Hearing this, the Slowpoke trembled, holding onto Bai Feng's arm tightly with its four claws and one tail.

After the matter with Pal Company was resolved, Bai Feng used the Summoning Circle to return to Mr. Steel's Home. However, neither Mister Steel nor Qianhui were at Home.

After inquiring with the neighbors, he learned that Qianhui had accompanied Mister Steel to the Hospital.

After all, Mister Steel was old. After being roughed up by those four thugs, his body was bound to feel uncomfortable.

When Bai Feng arrived at the Hospital, Mister Steel had already woken up and was talking with Qianhui. The grandfather and granddaughter were chatting and laughing. Mister Steel seemed to be fine.

Meanwhile, his Unfezant was sleeping soundly by the Hospital Room bed.

Knock knock knock~

Although the Hospital Room door was open, Bai Feng still knocked.

"Brother Bai Feng, you're here!" Seeing that it was Bai Feng, Qianhui happily welcomed him in.

Bai Feng nodded, patted Qianhui's head, and then looked at Mister Steel on the bed and asked, "Mister Steel, are you alright?"

Mister Steel smiled and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine. Just minor issues. I owe you a lot this time." He had just accidentally twisted his back while struggling.

"That's good, that's good." Bai Feng completely relaxed.

"Brother Bai Feng, please sit." Qianhui brought over a stool and said.

"Right, what happened after you chased after them?" Mister Steel asked.

When he woke up, he didn't see Bai Feng, and he heard Qianhui say that Bai Feng's Unfezant had brought him back alone, so he knew Bai Feng must have gone to track down the people who kidnapped him.

"The matter is resolved." After sitting down, Bai Feng told Mister Steel about the Pal Company matter.

"How scary." Qianhui said with a pale face after listening.

"Truly evil. It's a good thing you went." Mister Steel said with sympathy.

Ring ring ring ring~~~

Just at this time, Qianhui's mobile phone rang. Qianhui picked up the mobile phone, looked at it, then looked at her Grandfather and whispered, "Grandfather, it's Dad."

Hearing this, Mister Steel's face sank, and he said sternly, "Answer it, let's see what he says! His old man is almost dead, is he coming back or not?"

(End of Chapter)

Bai Feng learned for the first time that Mister Steel and his son didn't have such a good bond.

However, that was someone else's family matter and had nothing to do with him, so after chatting with Mister Steel for a while, he left the hospital.

Leaving the hospital, Bai Feng took Ursaring home. After arriving home, he called over Big Bear and Second Bear, then released Ursaring and said to them, "This guy is a bit defiant. Help me give it a good welcome."

Big Bear and Second Bear's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"Can we use it as a training sandbag?"

"Yes, of course." Bai Feng nodded. "The important thing is to discipline it to be obedient."

"We know!" Big Bear and Second Bear happily dragged Ursaring away excitedly.

Just now, with Bai Feng present, Ursaring was very well-behaved. But once they were out of Bai Feng's sight, it suddenly revealed a mischievous smile.

Hehe~~ To actually trust me with other Pokémon so easily, don't blame me then!

Ursaring still thought Big Bear and Second Bear were easy to bully at this moment, so it suddenly pulled its claws free from Big Bear and Second Bear's grasp, then raised a fist flashing with lightning and fiercely smashed it towards Second Bear.

"Get lost!"

However, to its astonished gaze, Second Bear lightly caught its fist.

Second Bear: "You little rascal, still trying to pull a fast one in front of me!"

Ursaring: ()??? What happened?

Big Bear grinned at Ursaring, "No wonder Bai Feng told us to give you a good welcome, you really are defiant!"

Second Bear grabbed Ursaring's arm and swung it around like a rag. While swinging it, it ran quickly, shouting loudly, "Little One, Little Two, Little Three, Little Four, hurry up, we have a training target!"

Seeing this, Big Bear also happily ran along with Second Bear.

Only after running into the Deep Woods did Big Bear and Second Bear stop. Meanwhile, the four Treasure Island Panda siblings walked out of the forest with smiles on their faces. The "One, Two, Three, Four" Second Bear mentioned earlier referred to them.

*Bang!*

Ursaring was directly thrown onto the ground by Second Bear. Its head was spinning, and it hadn't figured out what had happened yet. It was still trying to recall: How was my fist caught just now?

The Treasure Island Pandas looked at Ursaring and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with it?"

Second Bear said with a grin, "Bai Feng told us to discipline it."

Hearing this, the four Treasure Island Panda sisters instantly understood and couldn't help but shiver, recalling the days when they were disciplined.

Thinking back now, that experience was truly a living hell, but...

The four Treasure Island Pandas all looked at Ursaring, a scheming smile appearing on their faces. Today, it was finally their turn to discipline another Pokémon. They were eager to experience the feeling of being the "superior".

The Treasure Island Panda Sister walked up to Ursaring and gently pushed it. "So you're the kid who's going to be disciplined?"

Ursaring, which had just stood up, was instantly pushed back down onto its butt. Full of anger, Ursaring raised its fist, ready to attack the Treasure Island Panda Sister.

However, the same situation occurred. The Treasure Island Panda Sister steadily caught its fist.

Again? Ursaring: ()??? What is going on?

Before Ursaring could think further, the Treasure Island Panda Sister let out a shriek and said in an affected tone, "Oh dear, it's bullying me!"

Immediately, Big Bear, Second Bear, the Treasure Island Panda Younger Sister, the Treasure Island Panda Brother, and the Treasure Island Panda Younger Brother—five Pokémon—surrounded Ursaring, watching it with dangerous gazes.

Ursaring: =(*)

In an instant, the five bears attacked together.

Big Bear: (皿)=3

Second Bear: (σ;*Д*)=3

Treasure Island Panda Younger Sister:

(*O)=3

Treasure Island Panda Younger Brother, Treasure Island Panda Brother:

(◣д◢)=3

After a round of group beating, Ursaring lay on the ground, bruised and swollen, while Big Bear, Second Bear, and the others were fully satisfied.

What a hearty and satisfying sparring session!

The Treasure Island Panda Sister dragged one of Ursaring's hind legs and walked towards the deeper part of the forest, chatting and laughing with Big Bear and Second Bear.

Ursaring: (;`) Help!

After handing Ursaring over to Big Bear and Second Bear, Bai Feng didn't bother with it anymore because, after that, he received a telephone call from his Brother, Red. It turned out that the couple had returned from their trip outside and asked him to come to Pallet Town for dinner today.

After hanging up the telephone, Bai Feng took White Night and the others with him to Pallet Town via the Summoning Circle.

When Bai Feng appeared at Red's Doorway, Delia was returning from outside with Blissey and Mr. Mime. They were carrying many bags, clearly having just come back from the Vegetable Market.

"Bai Feng! White Night!"

Seeing Bai Feng and White Night, Delia exclaimed, quickly dropped the things in her hands onto the ground, and then flew into White Night's arms.

"White Night, long time no see!"

"Gardevoir~ Gardevoir~"

White Night also happily hugged Delia.

After a round of "pouring out their hearts," Delia quickly said to the mother and son, "Come, come inside quickly."

Bai Feng quickly stepped forward to help Delia carry the things into the house.

Upon entering the house, Slowpoke, Zorua, Delphox, Primarina, Heliolisk, Meganium, Diancie, Tyranitar, Big Meng, Second Meng, Deoxys, and Unfezant all came out of their Poké Balls.

"Everyone's here!" Delia greeted everyone happily one by one. She loved seeing the house lively and bustling.

"Delphox, you've evolved! Congratulations!"

"Maho~" Thank you.

Delphox responded to Delia with squinted eyes.

"Oh dear, Bai Feng, you caught another Slowpoke? It's so cute." Delia hugged Slowpoke and pinched its soft little face.

"Ya~~ Don~~" Slowpoke slowly moved its face closer to Delia, but unfortunately, Delia had already turned around and picked up Zorua.

"Zorua, long time no see, you're still so cute."

"Zoro~ Zoro~"

Zorua happily rolled around in Delia's arms.

Recently, Primarina had been very jealous of Slowpoke because Bai Feng took Slowpoke everywhere and would hold it in his arms. So, hearing Delia praise Slowpoke made it feel unhappy.

Hmph! Cute? What's so cute about it! How could it be even one ten-thousandth as cute as me?

Thinking this, it also moved closer to Delia.

It had to be said that Delia's cheerful and gentle nature was very popular with Pokémon. Bai Feng suspected that Ash Ketchum's terrifying affinity for Pokémon was inherited from Delia.

Seeing the house crowded with Pokémon, Bai Feng quickly said, "You all go out and play. Come back when dinner is ready."

This time, Bai Feng had also brought Red's Pokémon back. They hadn't seen Red for a long time either.

"Oh right, where's Big Brother?" Bai Feng asked.

"He should be upstairs," Delia pointed to the second floor.

Speak of the devil, no sooner had Delia spoken than Red came downstairs. "Bai Feng, you're here!" He smiled and greeted Bai Feng. "I was just talking about you with Professor Oak."

"Professor Oak?" Bai Feng looked puzzled. "Talking about what?"

"I heard you caught four more incredible Pokémon. The Professor was thinking about when he could ask you to let him see them!" Red said.

"Oh, that's what it is. He can contact me anytime, how could I refuse?" Bai Feng suddenly understood.

But Professor Oak's information is really well-connected. It's only been a few days since he caught Chien-Pao and the others? It must have been the Archaeological Team that leaked the news.

"True. I'll also take a look at those four unique Pokémon later, I'm very curious too." Red nodded, then added, "Have all my Pokémon come back?"

"They're all here, outside!" Bai Feng said.

"I'll go see." Red hadn't seen his Pokémon in a long time and missed them very much. Saying this, he quickly walked outside.

Seeing this, Delia said, "Bai Feng, you go too. I'll call you when the food is ready."

Leaving his Sister-in-law busy at home alone, Bai Feng felt a bit embarrassed, so he said, "No, I'll help you, Sister-in-law."

Delia directly pushed Bai Feng outside. "I have Blissey and Little Mime helping me, I don't need you. My kitchen is small, it can't fit too many people."

The "Little Mime" Delia mentioned was Mr. Mime. This Pokémon was caught by Ash Ketchum on his way back to Pallet Town once and usually stays at home with Delia. When Delia and Red go traveling, they also bring it and Blissey.

Bai Feng had no choice but to go outside the house to find Red.

Red was being affectionate with his Pokémon. Because they hadn't seen him for a long time, his Pokémon were a bit overly enthusiastic towards him.

"Hahaha~~ Everyone, don't get too excited." Red's hearty laughter filled the courtyard.

Red's Arcanine immediately jumped on him, knocking him to the ground, and kept licking his cheek with its tongue. After seeing Bai Feng come out, he waved and shouted, "Bai Feng, do you want to have a Pokémon race with me!"

Bai Feng walked over and looked at the Arcanine whose fur was like flames, and said, "You want to race me with Arcanine?"

Red nodded. "Yeah."

Bai Feng was speechless. "Who do you expect me to race against you with? Meganium?" How could his Meganium possibly outrun Red's Arcanine?

Red thought about it and also felt that a ground riding race with Bai Feng was a bit unfair, so he said again, "Then let's compete in an aerial race!" Saying this, he beckoned, and immediately Charizard descended from the sky with an imposing aura.

Looking at Charizard showing off, Bai Feng playfully slapped it. "Who usually takes care of you? Now that Big Brother is back, you're helping him bully me?"

Charizard didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, it put its hands on its hips, raised its head, pointed its chin at Bai Feng, and looked completely challenging.

Red imitated Charizard's actions and expression and challenged, "Just say whether you dare or not!"

"Alright, alright, using provocation, huh! Today I'll compete with you!" Bai Feng beckoned to Unfezant. Unfezant let out a call and landed beside Bai Feng.

"Then let's begin!" Red quickly flipped onto Charizard's back. Charizard flapped its wings and shot into the sky like a rocket.

"You're starting early?" Bai Feng shouted, quickly flipped onto Unfezant's back, and followed suit.

"Coo coo coo~~~" Unfezant rapidly flapped its wings, chasing after Charizard.

"Hahaha~~~ Bai Feng, it looks like I'm going to win today!" Just as they were within reach of Wonderful Mountain's mountain top, Red's triumphant voice came. "Whoever loses today has to do the dishes after dinner!" Red already felt victory was assured.

According to the distance between the two at this moment, Charizard was indeed slightly better.

"Alright, so you were waiting for me here, huh!" Bai Feng "angrily" roared. Suddenly, his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the original spot with Unfezant.

When he reappeared, he was already waving at Red on the mountain top of Wonderful Mountain.

Red: ω)

You can do that?

Landing beside Bai Feng while riding Charizard, Red said in annoyance, "How can you cheat like that?"

Bai Feng said with a chuckle, "Who told you to start early? It's only fair if I use Teleport from behind."

"That's too much bullying," Red said.

"Roar~~~" Charizard also followed suit, looking unconvinced.

"Just say whether you admit defeat or not," Bai Feng said.

Red reluctantly said, "Fine, you win!"

"So this is Wonderful Mountain!" Bai Feng looked around. This was his first time visiting Wonderful Mountain.

Red nodded and asked, "Want to look around here?"

"Okay!" Bai Feng nodded. Anyway, with the Summoning Circle, they could go home anytime.

(End of Chapter)

Bai Feng and Red hadn't walked far when they saw an Onix pass by them.

The Onix here had a gentle nature. Even seeing Bai Feng and Red, two strangers, it didn't panic at all and continued crawling forward unhurriedly.

After walking a few more steps, the two successively encountered Pokémon like Sandshrew, Graveler, and Rhyhorn. These Pokémon ran away immediately upon seeing Bai Feng and Red, completely lacking the Onix's grace and calmness.

"As expected of Mt. Myiacha, it's truly a paradise for Rock-type Pokémon," Bai Feng exclaimed.

"It's said that the rocks in Mt. Myiacha contain mineral components that aid the growth of Rock-type Pokémon, which is why Rock-type Pokémon gather here in large numbers," Red explained.

"So that's how it is," Bai Feng suddenly understood.

"How about it? Want to catch a Rock-type Pokémon to train?" Red asked with a smile. "The Rock-type Pokémon in Mt. Myiacha have strong growth potential. Bruno's Onix was caught here."

Hearing this, Bai Feng waved his hands repeatedly. "Let's not. I don't have any plans to train new Pokémon." If Slowpoke hadn't insisted on following him, he wouldn't have even planned to catch Slowpoke.

As for the Onix Bruno mentioned, Bai Feng knew about it too. When Elite Four Bruno caught it, Ash Ketchum and the others were also present. That Onix was a special individual, its size was far larger than a normal Onix.

"Right." Bai Feng indeed had no need to catch new Pokémon at the moment, and Red had just mentioned it casually.

"Oh, right, I heard from Ash Ketchum that you gave him a Mega Stone and a Key Stone?" Red suddenly said again.

"Yeah, but the Key Stone was something I got from Professor Oak, just passing it on as a gift," Bai Feng nodded.

Hearing this, Red just smiled and didn't say anything. He and Bai Feng were biological brothers. Bai Feng, as the Uncle, giving his nephew a gift was nothing much to comment on.

The two walked and chatted, when suddenly a loud noise came, and the two of them swayed.

"What's going on?" Bai Feng said, holding onto the ground.

"It seems to be coming from over there," Red said after stabilizing himself.

"Should we go take a look?" Bai Feng asked.

"Let's go!" Red nodded.

Immediately, the two rushed towards the direction the commotion came from. As they got closer, they could even hear the roaring sounds of Pokémon.

"It seems like wild Pokémon are fighting," Bai Feng theorized.

"Possibly," Red nodded in agreement.

Indeed, after climbing over a small hill, Bai Feng and Red saw a Steelix and a Golem engaged in a fierce battle.

Steelix are rarely seen in the wild because, without human intervention, an Onix needs to be tempered through countless trials on its body and accumulate experience over long years to evolve naturally into a Steelix.

Therefore, usually, wild Steelix are very powerful.

There are many Onix in Mt. Myiacha, so it's not strange for Steelix to appear, but what surprised Bai Feng and Red was that the Golem clashing with the Steelix was also very powerful. The two Pokémon exchanged blows and were actually evenly matched.

Of course, what caught their attention was the huge cave next to them that appeared because of their battle.

"That is..." Bai Feng said doubtfully.

"It doesn't look like it was formed because of their battle," Red said.

Bai Feng nodded. "It looks more like it was originally empty there, and then it collapsed because of their battle."

Just as the two were talking, the Steelix and the Golem, due to their battle, surprisingly both fell towards that bottomless cave.

"Hey~~~"

Seeing this, Bai Feng quickly used Teleport to get above the cave and used Psychic Power to pull the two guys back, but they were too heavy. Bai Feng was almost pulled into the cave by them.

Fortunately, his Psychic was strong enough now. After some effort, he finally pulled the two Pokémon up.

The two Pokémon also felt lingering fear. That cave was pitch black, and they didn't know how deep it was. If they fell, they might be seriously injured.

Bai Feng said speechlessly, "Why were you two fighting? And so fiercely!"

Hearing this, the Golem suddenly climbed up from the ground and pointed at the Steelix, shouting incoherently. It was very incoherent. After a long time, Bai Feng barely managed to figure out the reason.

It turned out that the Steelix wanted to eat a Geodude, and the Golem saw it. If the Golem hadn't intervened in time, the Geodude would have been crunched by the Steelix.

Hearing the Golem's accusation, the Steelix immediately objected. It didn't do it on purpose. It had just woken up, its head wasn't clear, and it just wanted to find something to eat. The Geodude looked so much like a rock that it didn't see clearly, which was why it bit down.

Who knew the Golem was relentless and insisted on teaching it a lesson, so the two Pokémon started fighting.

Bai Feng said speechlessly, "Isn't this all a misunderstanding? It'll be fine once it's cleared up!"

Just then, Red ran over. He looked at Bai Feng with concern and asked, "Bai Feng, are you okay?"

Bai Feng shook his head and said to him with a smile, "I'm fine."

Hearing this, Red sighed in relief.

Since the misunderstanding was resolved, the two Pokémon stared at each other for a moment, then left separately.

The Steelix burrowed its head into the ground and disappeared in an instant. The Golem, leading a few Graveler and Geodude, left with heavy steps.

After the Pokémon left, Bai Feng craned his neck and took a look into the cave. "What's in here?"

Red also craned his neck to look inside. "I don't know."

Unfortunately, the bottom of the cave was pitch dark, and they couldn't see clearly at all.

"Should I go down and take a look?" Bai Feng suggested.

"Let's go together," Red said. He was very worried about letting Bai Feng go down alone.

"Okay then, together," Bai Feng nodded.

The two waved towards the sky at the same time. Charizard and Unfezant immediately descended from the sky. The two held onto their respective Pokémon's feet and slowly descended towards the bottom of the cave.

Charizard's tail was burning with bright flames, illuminating the dark environment around them, so they wouldn't be completely in the dark.

The cave was indeed very deep. Bai Feng and the others flew all the way down for who knows how long and still hadn't landed.

*Splash splash~~~*

Suddenly, faint sounds came.

"What's that sound?" Bai Feng listened carefully.

"It sounds like... the sound of flowing water," Red replied after listening carefully for a while.

The cave was very quiet. As soon as the two spoke, echoes would ring out.

*Screech screech screech~~~*

Suddenly, another noisy sound rang out. Countless Zubat flew out from the darkness and flew towards the top of the cave. Seeing their panicked state, they must have been scared by Bai Feng and Red's voices.

"There are even Pokémon here?" Red said in surprise.

"That means the space below isn't closed," Bai Feng said.

Red nodded. Indeed, if it were a closed space, the Zubat wouldn't be able to survive.

After a while longer, the two finally landed. A rushing river appeared in their line of sight.

"An underground river?"

It seemed the sound of flowing water from before came from this underground river.

After landing, Bai Feng and Red used Poké Balls to return Unfezant and Charizard. The narrow environment here wasn't suitable for Flying-type Pokémon to move around.

Then Bai Feng controlled the Summoning Circle, reached his hand in, and before long, pulled out a Flashlight. He clicked it on, and the surrounding environment instantly became bright.

Red didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "This thing of yours is really convenient."

"Let's walk along the river and see if there's anything here," Red said. The spirit of exploration in a Pokémon Trainer made him couldn't help but become curious about what was ahead.

Hearing this, Bai Feng nodded.

The two walked along the rushing river all the way forward. They didn't know how long they walked, and still didn't see an exit. After walking for who knows how long again, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared before them.

"It's the exit!" Bai Feng exclaimed.

The two couldn't help but quicken their steps.

Towards the light, Bai Feng and the others walked out of the underground space. What appeared before them was a mountain valley filled with birds singing and flowers fragrant.

The valley wasn't large in area. They could see that it was surrounded on all sides by tall and steep cliffs. Except for the sky, there was no passage leading outside. It would probably be very difficult for people from outside to get in.

Among the flowerbeds all over the valley, Bai Feng and the others saw many Pokémon, including Butterfree, Beedrill, Oddish, Gloom, Nidoran♀, Nidoran♂, etc. They were happily playing and frolicking in the flowerbeds, looking like a peaceful scene.

The valley was also covered with fruit trees, full of fruit, ensuring that the Pokémon living here wouldn't suffer from hunger.

Just then, Bai Feng and the others suddenly heard a burst of singing.

"Puu puu puu ring~~~ Puu puu puu ring~~~"

"It's sing!" Bai Feng subconsciously covered his ears. Seeing this, Red followed suit.

Immediately, the two saw a Jigglypuff of huge size and covered in black patterns all over its body floating in the air. It was still holding a bronze bell in its hand as a microphone to sing.

As the Jigglypuff appeared, all the Pokémon hid in a panic. However, it seemed they weren't afraid of the Jigglypuff, they just didn't want to listen to the Jigglypuff's singing.

"That's... an Ancient Jigglypuff?" Bai Feng said in surprise.

He had heard Ash Ketchum and the others talk about this Pokémon. After this Jigglypuff used its sing to hypnotize the Ancient Gengar and Ancient Alakazam, it disappeared along with those two Pokémon.

At that time, Ash Ketchum and the others also fell asleep because of the Jigglypuff's singing, so they didn't know the whereabouts of the three Ancient Pokémon.

So, did they hide themselves in this mountain valley?

If the Jigglypuff is here, does that also mean Alakazam and Gengar are also here?

As expected, just as Bai Feng's thought arose, they saw a similarly huge Gengar and Alakazam appear in the air. They had black patterns on their bodies similar to the Jigglypuff's.

"Gen~~Gar~~~"

"Ala~~kazam~~~"

The three Pokémon floated around in the air, bumping into each other, having so much fun. You could tell at a glance that they had a good relationship with each other.

Ash Ketchum and the others also told Bai Feng that Gengar and Alakazam must have been re-sealed by the Jigglypuff. Now it seems that's all nonsense. Clearly, the Jigglypuff took them and quietly hid to live a good life!

The three of them, Jigglypuff, Gengar, and Alakazam, were clearly just acting.

Just then, Alakazam seemed to sense something. It suddenly turned its head and looked over. Immediately, two beams of light shot out from its eyes, aimed directly at Bai Feng and Red.

Bai Feng was startled. He quickly used Teleport with Red and disappeared from the original spot.

Boom!!!

With a loud noise, the place where Bai Feng and the others had just been standing was blasted into a giant pit by Alakazam's Psybeam. Along with it, the passage they had just used to enter the valley was also blasted and collapsed.

After being reminded by Alakazam, Jigglypuff and Gengar also discovered the presence of the two. The two Pokémon, who had just been smiling, suddenly their faces turned grim.

They exchanged a glance. A cold glint flashed in their eyes. They hid here precisely because they didn't want to be discovered and thus disturb their peaceful life.

Since someone had discovered this place, they couldn't let these two people leave.

In an instant, the three Pokémon surrounded Bai Feng and Red completely. They floated above Bai Feng and Red's heads, looking down from above at the two. Coupled with their enormous bodies and bodies covered in black patterns, they were very imposing, exerting pressure.

"Gen~~~" A red light flashed in Gengar's eyes. It seemed about to launch an attack on the two.

The two were startled. Red immediately sent out Charizard.

"Charizard, Flamethrower!"

"Roar~~~"

Charizard roared, and a scorching column of fire shot out. The surging torrent of flames hit Gengar's body, knocking Gengar off balance.

Gengar was attacked, and the other two Pokémon instantly became enraged. Seeing this, Bai Feng quickly used the Summoning Circle to summon Delphox and Diancie.

"Big Brother, leave Gengar to you. Jigglypuff and Alakazam are mine," Bai Feng said.

"Okay!" Red nodded.

At this moment, Jigglypuff had already started its attack. Its most proficient attack was sing. The bronze bell in its hand had the function of amplifying sound, so its singing had an extremely strong hypnotic effect.

However, Bai Feng was already mentally prepared. So, at the moment Jigglypuff's singing rang out, he said to Delphox, "Delphox, Psychic Noise!"

As Bai Feng finished speaking, Delphox emitted strange sound waves around its body. This kind of sound wave was formed by vibrating the air with Psychic Power and had an extremely strong disruptive effect.

This move was something Delphox learned on its own after fusing with the Zhi Huo Crystal.

As expected, with the interference of Psychic Noise, Jigglypuff's singing immediately lost its rhythm. It couldn't continue singing at all.

Several times it tried to continue singing but failed. Jigglypuff was extremely angry, but at this moment, Diancie's attack had arrived.

One after another, sparkling diamond spears shot towards the sky, aimed directly at Jigglypuff.

Seeing this, Alakazam again burst forth with two beams of light from its eyes. The moment they collided with the diamond spears, the diamond spears were shattered and scattered, falling to the ground.

Ancient Pokémon are indeed powerful.

According to the news Ash Ketchum heard from Dr. White, Gengar and Alakazam came from the Ancient Pokémania Civilization. According to the records in the Sealed Ruins, it was these two Pokémon that destroyed the Pokémania Civilization.

Whether the truth is really as recorded in the ruins is already unknown, but it is enough to provide proof of the power of Gengar and Alakazam.

Diancie's attack was blocked. Delphox used Mystical Fire towards Alakazam without hesitation.

(End of Chapter)

Chapter 423: Subdued

Alakazam crossed the two spoons in its hands, and a Light Screen appeared in front of it and Wigglytuff, successfully blocking Delphox's Mystical Fire.

Wigglytuff wasn't giving up and wanted to continue singing. Just then, Diancie launched Stone Edge again, and several diamond spears shot out.

Alakazam's Light Screen couldn't block Stone Edge. The bell in Wigglytuff's hand was immediately struck and sent flying.

"Purin~ Purin~"

Wigglytuff panicked and tried to chase after the bell, but at that moment, a golden ring suddenly appeared, and the bell fell into the ring and vanished.

Meanwhile, a spatial portal appeared in Bai Feng's House. With a loud noise, the bell fell to the ground, smashing cracks into the floor. Audino and Hatterene, who were cleaning, were startled by the sudden commotion.

Back with Wigglytuff, seeing the rapidly disappearing ring, it was dumbfounded. It floated around in the air in a panic, desperately searching for the bell's trace.

Just then, Diancie hit it with another Stone Edge.

Intense pain struck, and Wigglytuff finally reacted. No matter where its bell went, it must be related to the Human who suddenly intruded here.

It puffed up its chubby cheeks and suddenly flew towards Diancie and Delphox, using Body Press.

With its large size, if it were hit, wouldn't it be flattened?

Seeing this, Bai Feng quickly used Teleport to take Diancie and Delphox away.

Boom!!!

With a loud noise, a large pit appeared where Bai Feng and the others had just been. Half of Wigglytuff's body was stuck in the pit.

Seeing its attack miss, Wigglytuff was very angry. It raised its hands and furiously pounded the ground repeatedly. Immediately, the ground cracked and shook violently from its pounding.

Alakazam, who was clashing with Delphox, saw this and felt frustrated, wishing Wigglytuff would attack the opponent instead of pounding the ground in anger.

Taking advantage of Wigglytuff being blinded by anger, Diancie immediately used its signature move. Countless pink diamonds gathered in its palm, transforming into a storm that swept towards Wigglytuff the next second.

Looking at the surging diamonds, a hint of fear flashed in Wigglytuff's eyes. It suddenly opened its mouth and emitted waves of sound. The resulting sound waves collided with the storm of diamonds. In an instant, countless pink diamonds scattered in all directions, while rolling air waves also surged outwards.

But clearly, Wigglytuff lost to Diancie in the strength comparison. Its Boomburst was defeated, and the remaining diamonds crashed onto its body with a clatter.

"Purin~ Purin~~"

The intense pain caused Wigglytuff to cry out in distress.

The situation with Delphox and Alakazam was the opposite. In a head-to-head strength contest, Delphox couldn't beat Alakazam, an Ancient Pokémon. However, it had Bai Feng assisting it. After Bai Feng linked with it using Mental Power Link, its strength surged.

The two Psychic-type Pokémon surprisingly abandoned move clashes and engaged in a primal psychic power showdown.

The two psychic power streams intertwined, pulling and twisting at each other. They went back and forth, making it difficult to determine a winner.

Just then, Wigglytuff's crying reached them, disturbing Alakazam's mental state. Delphox seized the opportunity, pouring out psychic power and pressing down on Alakazam.

Alakazam wailed, suddenly falling from the air to the ground, covering its head with its hands and rolling around.

Seeing the wailing Alakazam, Wigglytuff stopped crying. Anger flashed in its eyes. It abandoned Diancie and charged towards Delphox using Double-Edge.

Bai Feng activated the Summoning Circle, creating a spatial portal behind Delphox. Delphox jumped in without hesitation.

The spatial portal disappeared, and Wigglytuff's attack missed again. Delphox reappeared beside Bai Feng.

At this point, Wigglytuff finally understood how its bell was lost. Its body puffed up like a balloon with anger. The next second, it unexpectedly used Heal Pulse on Alakazam without any warning.

Alakazam, which had been rolling on the ground, floated back into the air. Its gaze towards Bai Feng and Delphox was filled with rage.

It was completely enraged.

Alakazam raised the spoons in its hands high, and brilliant purple radiance erupted. Two specks of light rose into the air and disappeared.

Not good, it's Future Sight!

Bai Feng quickly shouted to Delphox and Diancie, "Stop it quickly!"

Future Sight, as a Psychic-type ultimate move, requires time to accumulate power to activate.

Hearing this, Diancie and Delphox simultaneously attacked Alakazam with Stone Edge and Mystical Fire, respectively.

However, Wigglytuff suddenly flew in front of Alakazam, blocking the attacks.

Bang~ Bang~~

The two attacks hit Wigglytuff's body, and Wigglytuff wailed as it was sent flying.

Seeing this, Alakazam roared in anger. The radiance on its spoons became even more dazzling. Immediately after, two thick purple beams descended from the sky, heading straight for Diancie and Delphox.

"Diancie, Rock Tomb!"

Diancie understood. With a wave of its hand, several huge diamonds rumbled down in front, standing tall. The diamonds were rhombic and had many cut facets.

Just like that, the beams formed by Future Sight projected onto the rhombic diamonds were directly reflected away. Who would have thought that a move originally used to trap enemies could be used for defense?

Boom!!!

The reflected light pillars struck the surrounding Cliff Face, and countless shattered rocks fell from above.

Seeing this scene, Alakazam was dumbfounded. They could even defend against that?

Before Alakazam could react, a large Great shaped flame flew out from Delphox's wooden staff, carrying intense pressure and heading straight for Alakazam.

With a loud noise, Alakazam's massive body was sent flying by the flame, crashing headfirst onto the Cliff, and then losing consciousness.

Alakazam is inherently a frail Pokémon. While its attacks hurt, it can't take much damage itself.

The injured Wigglytuff was just getting up from the ground when it saw this scene. It paused for a moment, then a fierce look flashed in its eyes.

Waves of pink fog overflowed from its body, gradually covering the ground.

Misty Terrain?

Bai Feng frowned slightly. Then he saw waves of radiance flash across Wigglytuff's body again.

Seeing this scene, his face changed drastically.

Not good, it's Misty Explosion!

Misty Explosion is a desperate type of move. The user sacrifices itself to near-fainting to attack all Pokémon on the Field. Furthermore, if the user is a Pokémon on the Ground, the power of this move increases by fifty percent.

Wigglytuff clearly met the condition of being a "Pokémon on the Ground".

Almost without hesitation, Bai Feng held Diancie and Delphox's hands and vanished from their Original spot. When they reappeared, they were already at High Altitude.

No matter how powerful Misty Explosion was, it couldn't reach High Altitude.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the ground collapsed, and countless cracks appeared. When the smoke and dust cleared, Wigglytuff and Alakazam lay on the ground, their bodies tattered.

Bai Feng slowly descended towards the ground with Diancie and Delphox. He thought for a moment and took out some G-Max Sweetness to feed to the two Pokémon.

On the other side, the battle between Gengar and Charizard was even more intense. Gengar was probably the strongest of the three Ancient Pokémon.

Although Gengar's size was huge, its movements were incredibly agile. It spread its arms, and waves of Dark Pulse swept out, chasing after Charizard and Red.

Charizard, relying on its nimble body, carried Red and constantly flipped and turned in the air.

"Charizard, Fire Blast," Red calmly commanded Charizard.

Charizard roared, opening its mouth and spitting out a Great shaped flame, instantly scattering all the Dark Pulses chasing it.

Seeing that Dark Pulse couldn't hit Charizard, the shadow beneath Gengar suddenly flew up, transforming into streaks of black shadow that chased after Charizard.

This was Gengar's Night Shade. The way it controlled Night Shade was completely different from other Ghost-type Pokémon, as if it commanded countless agile clones.

The black shadows bared their fangs and claws, pouncing towards Charizard. Seeing this, Red commanded, "Use Heat Wave."

"Awoo~~" Charizard responded. It flapped its wings, and in an instant, rolling heat waves spread out from it, instantly engulfing all the pouncing black shadows.

The black shadows were all burned to ashes in shrieks.

Seeing this, surprise flashed in Gengar's eyes, and then it launched an even fiercer attack.

It first used Spite. A ghostly black shadow chased after Charizard. Charizard slammed on the brakes, stopped, and countered with a Shadow Claw, shattering the ghostly black shadow.

Next, Gengar used Curse. It first showed a painful expression, then projected a black light pillar onto Charizard's body. Charizard tried to dodge but was too late.

The cursed condition took effect. A look of pain flashed across Charizard's face. If the curse was left unchecked, Charizard's HP would rapidly drain.

However, this situation wasn't without a method. Red directly took out a Poké Ball and recalled Charizard. Then he quickly fell downwards, but immediately after, he sent Charizard out again. At this point, the cursed condition had disappeared.

Charizard accelerated and caught Red, then accelerated again to get behind Gengar.

"Charizard, after taking so many hits, it's our turn to make a move," Red said with a smile.

"Roar~~" Charizard roared with high fighting spirit.

"Charizard, Abyssal Flames!"

"Awoo~~"

Charizard flapped its wings, transforming into a streaking light that rapidly circled Gengar. Immediately, a ring of fire surrounded Gengar.

Boom!!!

The ring of fire suddenly erupted like a volcano, and countless flames engulfed Gengar.

"Gengar!!!"

Gengar shrieked. Cold black mist suddenly surged around its body, extinguishing the surrounding flames, but the special effect attached to Abyssal Flames had already taken effect: it was in the burn status.

The pain in its body made Gengar's expression somewhat frantic. It quickly swung its arms, controlling one Shadow Ball after another to smash towards Charizard.

Charizard nimbly dodged the attacks, then, under Red's command, used Fire Spin. A circular ring of fire trapped Gengar, leaving it unable to advance or retreat. At the same time, under the scorching flames, Gengar's HP continuously drained.

However, Charizard also fell victim to Gengar's move.

Gengar's ability is Cursed Body. When it is hit by an enemy attack, there is a chance the enemy will be afflicted with the Disable status. This meant that for a period of time, Charizard couldn't use Fire Spin again.

As time passed, Gengar's HP rapidly drained under the double torment of the burn status and Fire Spin. It was on the verge of collapsing.

In this situation, there was no way Gengar could turn the tide. It knew this well.

"Charizard, Air Cutter!"

Seeing Gengar about to fall, Red had Charizard deliver the final blow.

In an instant, countless Air Slash struck Gengar's massive body.

Suddenly, Gengar's face showed a fierce look. A dark light flashed in its eyes. In an instant, Red and Charizard felt as if something had targeted them.

Red inwardly thought, "Not good," and wanted to warn Charizard, but it was too late.

Gengar wailed, its last bit of HP taken away by Air Cutter. Immediately after, Charizard also wailed. It closed its eyes and directly lost consciousness, falling towards the ground along with Red.

Gengar had just used Destiny Bond.

Fortunately, Bai Feng was there. Seeing Red's situation from afar, he activated the Summoning Circle, creating a spatial portal below Red and Charizard, teleporting the Human and the Pokémon to his side.

"Ow~"

Red cried out in pain, crushed under the unconscious Charizard.

Seeing Bai Feng looking at him with a smile, Red said irritably, "You're still laughing."

Bai Feng quickly restrained his smile and said, "Not laughing anymore, not laughing anymore." As he spoke, he helped Red up and fed G-Max Sweetness to the unconscious Charizard.

After doing all this, Bai Feng looked at the once beautiful Mountain Valley, which was now a mess. The Pokémon living there hid in corners, trembling and afraid to come out.

Bai Feng thought for a moment, activated the Summoning Circle to open a spatial portal, and Meganium walked out.

He pointed at the shattered Mountain Valley and said to Meganium, "Meganium, could I trouble you to restore this place to its Original spot?"

"Ganu~~" Of course, leave it to me!

Meganium nodded in response and slowly walked to the center of the Mountain Valley. Green radiance surged from its body, then spread out like a carpet in all directions.

Wherever the green carpet passed, flowers and plants sprouted and grew again. Broken trees also grew branches/buds again and quickly grew large. In an instant, countless flowers bloomed on the branches/buds.

Seeing this scene, the Pokémon hiding in the corners couldn't help but slowly walk out.

As time passed, the shattered Flower Fields and broken trees disappeared, replaced by a more vibrant Mountain Valley.

"Pidgey~ Pidgey~"

"Bee~~"

Pidgeotto flew happily through the air with the Pidgey, finally landing on the treetop of a fruit tree.

"Uiiiii~~"

"Uoh~~"

Butterfree and Beedrill flew into the Flowerbeds in groups.

"Do~~ Dodo~~"

"Hana~ Hana~"

Gloom led Oddish running around.

...

Seeing the Mountain Valley become lively again, Bai Feng breathed a sigh of relief. After Meganium returned, he gently stroked Meganium's neck and said, "You worked hard."

"Ganu~ Ganu~"

Meganium affectionately rubbed against Bai Feng.

Red recalled Charizard and said, "Your Meganium's ability is amazing no matter how many times I see it."

"Of course," Bai Feng said proudly, hugging his Meganium.

"Purin~~"

"Hu~~"

Just then, two groans sounded. The unconscious Wigglytuff and Alakazam slowly opened their eyes.

(End of Chapter)

Chapter 424: Being Guests

After waking up, the two Pokémon were very confused. Weren't they just beaten badly? Why didn't they feel pain now?

Immediately, they saw Bai Feng and Red not far from them. Just as they were about to fly into a rage, they heard Bai Feng say, "Stop it, we didn't come here to battle you."

"Puri~ Puririn~~" You beat us so badly, and you say you didn't come to battle! Jigglypuff said angrily.

"Didn't you attack first? How is it our fault now?" Bai Feng said speechlessly.

"Puri~" Really? Jigglypuff looked at Alakazam and asked.

Alakazam nodded speechlessly.

Jigglypuff: ... My memory is bad, don't blame me.

When they saw Human coming here, they subconsciously felt it would negatively impact their lives, which is why they hastily attacked.

"You're worried that Human finding you will do bad things to you?" Bai Feng asked.

Jigglypuff and Alakazam nodded simultaneously.

"Then don't worry, we won't." Bai Feng said.

The two Pokémon looked disbelieving. They had seen too many Human lies. Back then, Pokémopolis sent the three of them to attack an enemy country, promising them freedom after success.

They did as told, but after achieving success, what awaited them was being imprisoned.

If Ash Ketchum and the others hadn't stumbled upon the Ruins by chance and accidentally broken the imprisonment, they wouldn't know how long they would have remained in the dark imprisonment.

What made them especially angry was that Pokémopolis had arbitrarily pinned the crime of destroying civilization on them. When they were imprisoned, Pokémopolis was still fine. Who knows how it was destroyed?

Just thinking about it made them angry. Detestable Human.

"You don't believe us?" Looking at the expressions of the two Pokémon, Bai Feng asked.

Jigglypuff and Alakazam nodded honestly.

"You can't beat us anyway. If we wanted to do something to you, would we need to rely on deception?" Bai Feng looked at the two Pokémon with a foolish expression.

(;`) That stings, it really stings.

After thinking carefully, the two Pokémon felt that what Bai Feng said made sense.

Right? Where's Gengar?

The two Pokémon only just remembered they had another partner!

"You're looking for Gengar? It's over there." Red said, pointing in Gengar's direction. At this moment, Gengar was still lying unconscious on the Ground.

"Puri~ Puri~"

"Hu~ Hu~"

Jigglypuff and Alakazam, their faces full of worry, flew towards Gengar.

Bai Feng and Red also came to Gengar's side and said to the worried Alakazam and the teary-eyed Jigglypuff, "Don't worry. Gengar will be fine, weren't you two fine too?" As he spoke, he took out a can of G-Max Sweetness and poured it into Gengar's mouth.

Before long, Gengar slowly woke up as expected, and its injuries gradually disappeared. Seeing this scene, Jigglypuff and Alakazam finally felt relieved.

After Gengar opened its eyes, it hadn't figured out the situation yet and subconsciously licked its lips, the sweetness in its mouth not yet gone. But then it saw Red again and immediately wanted to get up and battle him, thankfully being stopped in time by Jigglypuff and Alakazam.

Bai Feng looked at the three Pokémon with huge size and asked, "How did your size become so big?" Could it be like Dragonite, affected by Dynamax Energy?

"Puri~ Puri~" Jigglypuff patted its round belly and pointed to the pattern on it.

"Is it the effect of the pattern?" Bai Feng asked.

The three Pokémon nodded simultaneously.

"Can you shrink back down?" Bai Feng asked. "Living with such a huge size must be very inconvenient, right?"

"Puri~ Puri~" We can shrink! Jigglypuff said.

Immediately, under Bai Feng and Red's surprised gaze, the three Pokémon's size rapidly shrank, and before long, they became the same size as regular Pokémon.

"You can shrink?"

"Puri~ Puri~" Of course, we never said we couldn't.

"Is it also the effect of the pattern?" Bai Feng asked again.

"Puri~ Puririn~" That's right. Jigglypuff nodded.

"If you can shrink, why did you become so big?" Bai Feng asked.

"Puri?" Not allowed? Jigglypuff blinked its big eyes, its face full of confusion.

Bai Feng shook his head. "That's not it, isn't such a large size inconvenient?"

"Puri~ Puri~~~" We don't usually become that big, only when we're playing. Jigglypuff replied.

"Alright." He was worrying unnecessarily.

Through the subsequent conversation, Bai Feng and Red learned that the special patterns on Jigglypuff and the others were tattooed onto them by a Master. Not only could these patterns allow them to freely control their size, but they could also amplify their ability.

Of course, obtaining the patterns came with a certain price. For example, Jigglypuff could no longer evolve into Wigglytuff, and Gengar and Alakazam, after touching upon legend, were originally able to Mega Evolve on their own, but now they couldn't either.

Understanding the secret of the patterns, Bai Feng and Red couldn't help but exclaim that there were truly too many kinds of magical power in the Pokémon World!

At this moment, Red suddenly said, "I keep feeling like I forgot something?"

"Oh yeah, I have that feeling too." Bai Feng tapped his head.

Suddenly, the two brothers exchanged a glance, then their eyes widened. "Lunch!"

They were busy exploring the Mountain Valley and busy battling Jigglypuff and the others, completely forgetting that Delia was making lunch at Home.

It was almost past lunch time!

Both of them took out their mobile phones at the same time and immediately discovered that due to the special environment of the Mountain Valley, they couldn't receive a signal at all. No wonder they hadn't received Delia's telephone calls.

"We're finished, finished." Red anxiously paced around the Original spot. "Your Sister-in-law must be furious."

"Let's hurry back!" Bai Feng said. He could already imagine the scene of his Sister-in-law breathing fire from her mouth.

"Quickly, quickly." Red urged.

"Puri~ Puri~" Are you leaving? Jigglypuff looked reluctant.

Although they had been avoiding Human because they were afraid Human would do bad things to them, they were actually very lonely inside. Now that they had finally met two people who wouldn't harm them, they naturally didn't want to separate like this.

At this moment, Red had a sudden idea and said, "Do you three want to come to my Home as guests?"

Hearing this, the three Pokémon were tempted but also showed hesitation.

Seeing this, Bai Feng said, "If you want to go, go. With us here, no one can do anything to you."

"Puri~ Puri~"

"Gengar~ Gengar~"

"Hu~ Hu~"

Hearing Bai Feng's words, the three Pokémon finally made up their determination and decided to follow Bai Feng and Red Home.

"Then let's hurry and go."

Saying this, Bai Feng opened the Summoning Circle.

When the two brothers walked out of the Summoning Circle with the three Pokémon, they saw Delia standing on the steps at the Doorway, holding a rice scoop in her hand, looking at them furiously.

"Where did you two run off to? Your telephone calls wouldn't go through, were you trying to worry me to death? The food is getting cold and you still haven't come back!" Delia unleashed a barrage on the two brothers.

After the two begged for forgiveness, Delia gradually reined in her anger. It was then that she finally saw Jigglypuff, Gengar, and Alakazam following behind the two brothers.

"Oh dear, we have guests! Why didn't you tell me?" Delia said, her face paling, realizing her rude appearance had been seen.

Bai Feng, Red: ... You didn't give us an opportunity to speak either!

"Come in quickly, come in quickly!" Delia warmly invited the three Pokémon into the house.

It was the first time the three Pokémon had been welcomed so warmly by Human. For a moment, they were a little embarrassed. Jigglypuff awkwardly wriggled its little hands, Gengar nervously rubbed its beer belly, and Alakazam shyly scratched the back of its head.

As for the offending Bai Feng and Red, they were already being ignored by Delia.

The two brothers exchanged a glance, their faces full of helplessness and bitterness.

Inviting the three Pokémon into the Home, Delia pulled them to sit at the dining table and gently asked, "You haven't eaten anything yet, have you?"

Gengar rubbed its rumbling belly and nodded sheepishly.

Seeing this, Delia immediately and enthusiastically placed the dishes in front of them.

Seeing Bai Feng and Red standing still, Delia said crossly, "Aren't you two coming over to eat? Do you really want me to invite you?"

"Coming, coming." Red quickly pulled Bai Feng to sit down.

Although Delia was angry, she hadn't thought of letting the two brothers go hungry. With a soft heart, she still placed the abundant dishes in front of the two brothers.

Because today was specifically to invite Bai Feng for a reunion meal, Delia had prepared a very rich table of dishes. Just looking at them made one's appetite soar.

While eating, Red praised profusely, "Delicious, truly delicious! Wife, your culinary skill is getting better and better!"

What he said was true, but Red saying it at this moment inevitably carried the suspicion of trying to please her.

Bai Feng also quickly echoed, giving a thumbs-up, "That's right, that's right, it's simply too delicious."

Delia was amused by the brothers' exaggerated tone, and the little bit of anger in her heart finally disappeared.

"Puri~"

"Gengar~~"

"Hu~"

The three Pokémon's praise for Delia was truly sincere. Let alone being imprisoned for many years, even before they were imprisoned, they had never eaten such delicious food.

The people of Pokémopolis had always only treated them as tools for war. How could they possibly treat them sincerely?

Watching the two Human and the three Pokémon eat with enjoyment, Delia felt her own appetite improve considerably.

"Eat more, don't be shy."

"Treat this place like your own Home. If you want to eat something, just help yourselves, don't be embarrassed."

...

While eating, Delia continuously attended to the three Pokémon. As time passed, the stiffness on the three Pokémon gradually disappeared, and their natures gradually became livelier.

Although they were very old, most of their lives were spent in imprisonment, so their natures were very simple. Delia's gentle and warm nature easily allowed them to open their hearts.

After eating, the three Pokémon slumped onto the chairs, their bellies full.

Delia said, "You can come whenever you want in the future."

Hearing this, the three Pokémon immediately looked at Delia with teary eyes.

After eating their fill, Jigglypuff wanted to sing a song. It patted itself, but didn't feel anything. Only then did it remember that its microphone (Bronze Bell) had been taken by Bai Feng.

"Puri~ Puririn~~" Where did you put my microphone? Jigglypuff looked at Bai Feng with teary eyes. That was its most cherished treasure.

Bai Feng didn't expect Jigglypuff to be a crybaby and immediately said with distress, "Don't cry, don't cry, I'll send it back to you right away."

Saying this, he opened the Summoning Circle and teleported the Bronze Bell from his Home.

Originally, Lopunny, Hatterene, and Audino were gathered around the Bronze Bell, doing research. The sudden disappearance of the Bronze Bell left them completely confused.

The Bronze Bell landed with a "bang" in Delia's Home.

Jigglypuff looked at the recovered Bronze Bell and cried tears of joy. This Bronze Bell was also a special item. Jigglypuff clapped its hands, and the originally human-sized giant Bronze Bell quickly shrank, becoming the same size as a real microphone.

Jigglypuff held its microphone high, excitedly jumped onto the table, and was about to sing, but was stopped by Bai Feng.

Just kidding, normal people can't listen to your song.

Being stopped from singing, Jigglypuff was very angry, its little face puffed up.

Just as it was about to argue with Bai Feng, the doorbell rang Outside the Door.

"Who is it!" Red walked over to open the door.

"Red, it's me!" Professor Oak's voice sounded Outside the Door. "Bai Feng is here, right?"

"Yes, he's here." After opening the door, Red invited Professor Oak in.

Seeing a stranger, the three Pokémon immediately hid in the corner. Although they believed Bai Feng and Red were harmless, that didn't mean they trusted others.

Professor Oak naturally saw the presence of the three Pokémon at a glance. Seeing the patterns on them, he couldn't help but pay a little more attention.

"These three Pokémon are..."

Red quietly told Professor Oak the origin of the three Pokémon in his ear. Professor Oak's eyes lit up after hearing it. "Could you let me research the patterns on them?"

Red gently shook his head. "Not for now. They have a strong wariness towards Human. If you make this request now, they might misunderstand."

Hearing this, Professor Oak looked disappointed but also knew that what Red said made sense. "You're right, I won't force it then." To avoid being counterproductive.

If he couldn't research them, then so be it. There would be plenty of time in the future. Besides, his purpose for coming today was the four Disaster Pokémon in Bai Feng's hands.

"Bai Feng, I heard you caught four Disaster Pokémon. Could you let me research them?" Professor Oak rubbed his hands excitedly.

"I have no problem with it. If the four of them also think it's no problem, then it's fine." Bai Feng replied.

"Then quickly help me ask." Professor Oak was already impatient.

"Alright." Bai Feng said helplessly. "Let's go outside." Saying this, he got up from the chair and walked towards outside the house.

"Alright, alright." Professor Oak excitedly followed.

"Do you want to go take a look? Maybe you can even make friends." Red said to the three Pokémon in the corner.

"Puri?"

Jigglypuff looked at Gengar and Alakazam.

"Gengar~"

"Hu~"

Gengar and Alakazam hesitated for a moment, then nodded simultaneously.

"Then let's go." Red beckoned to the three Pokémon.

When he came out of the house with the three Pokémon, Bai Feng had already used the Summoning Circle to teleport the four Disaster Pokémon to the Yard. Professor Oak was excitedly circling the four Pokémon.

"These are the Disaster Pokémon? They truly are the only Pokémon in the world!"
