Pokémon Padea Adventure: The Journey Continues

Chapter 51 Little Girl Aster and Sea Gopher



I saw a little girl wearing a white puppet costume, which was exactly the same as the white unknown Pokémon that had popped up on the beach and then shrunk into the sand. It was no wonder that Xiaozhi mistakenly thought that the other party was a Pokémon.

Seeing the other party burst into tears, Xiaozhi immediately said in a hurry.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, I thought you were a Pokémon. Stop crying..."

Xiaoqing, Paipa and others came after hearing the sound and asked.

"Xiao Zhi, what's wrong with you?"

Only then did Xiaozhi tell them that he mistakenly thought the little girl wearing a white puppet costume half-buried in the sand was a Pokémon.

Xiaoqing and Xinyemao spent a lot of energy on coaxing the little girl to stop crying... The little girl who calmed down introduced herself.

"My name is Ziyuan, and I am a resident from Niangguang City. I want to catch a sea rat and make it my own Pokémon..."

"It turns out that these Pokémon that stretch and hide in the sand are called sea rats..."

Ash said while flipping through Rotom on his phone.

"Sea Rat, a glutinous eel Pokémon, has a water type. Sea Mouse has a white extendable body and a red nose. It looks very similar to a Gopher at first glance, but it is a completely different type. When it is in the sand, What the body looks like and how long it is are still a mystery.

Sea gophers live on the coast or in the sea, and they look like Padian gophers. But since their habitats and food are different, it can be seen that they are completely different species. According to the research results, both species seem to have accidentally formed similar body shapes in order to dive into the ground or sand and adapt to their living environment. It has an excellent sense of smell. Even if it is 20 meters away, it is always wary of its surroundings. It is timid. Once it detects the smell of other Pokémon, it will shrink into the sand and hide, and it will reveal its body from the sand. Some come to eat food from the sea. "

Xiaozhi suddenly realized and said.

"Because he is timid and has a keen sense of smell, he can immediately retract into the sand every time he approaches me."

Aster replied.

"That's right, because Haitian rats have such special characteristics, that's why I came up with the idea of ​​using cross-dressing to get close to wild Haitian rats... Originally, everything was going quite smoothly. There were quite a few Haitian rats from My head poked out from beside me, but unexpectedly it was destroyed by your sudden appearance, Xiaozhi."

Ash and Pikachu scratched the back of their heads in embarrassment and apologized.

Piper patted Xiaozhi and said.

"Although Xiaozhi and Pikachu did something wrong. They ran into the territory of the Haitian rats without understanding their habits and frightened them... But, Aster, your behavior is also very dangerous. First of all, You are half-lying in the sand. If the sea suddenly rises, your life will be in danger. Secondly..., let me ask you first, do you have a Pokémon with you to protect your safety?"

Aster shook her head and replied.

"No, my parents are both office workers, not Pokémon trainers, and I'm not even ten yet, so I can't get my own primary Pokémon, so I want to catch a sea rat to become mine. Pokémon.”

Piper continued to ask.

"Then do you know how to catch Pokémon? You have to first fight Pokémon to weaken your opponent's physical strength, and then wait for an opportunity to throw an empty Pokémon ball. After catching the Pokémon, you have to wait for a while with the red light flashing. Time, after this series of work stops, can we truly capture the Pokémon. Do you have any free Poké Balls?"

Hearing this, Zi Wan's eyes rolled in her eyes, she said "Wow" again, covered her face and started crying. At this time, it was Pipa's turn to feel at a loss. She could only pity Xiaoqing who had finally managed to calm Aster from crying, and now she had to do it all over again.

"Okay, little sister Zi Wan... don't cry. Brother Pipa didn't mean that... Pipa, come over and apologize to Zi Wan!"

"I'm sorry, Aster..., I didn't mean to bully you."

At this moment, Xiaozhi, who was still embarrassed, laughed and said from the side.

"Isn't it just empty elf balls and catching wild sea rats? I have all of these..."

With that said, Xiaozhi took out an empty Poke Ball and handed it to Aster. Aster stopped crying and took it ignorantly.

"...I'll help you and let's catch the sea rats together!"

Aster suddenly stopped crying, looked up at Xiaozhi with bright eyes, and said expectantly.

"Really!"

Although Aster was finally coaxed, Xiaozhi fell into a trap dug by himself again. Xiaoqing and Pipa couldn't help but remind Xiaozhi.

"Hey, Xiaozhi! Just now you have seen the vigilance and avoidance ability of wild sea rats. You can't even get close to them. Are you confident that you can fulfill the agreement you just made with Zi Wan?"

Xiaozhi thought for a while and replied carelessly.

"Well..., what the hell! The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge."

Xiaoqing and Pipa were speechless for a while, each thinking silently in their hearts.

"Sure enough... it's Xiaozhi's way of doing things."

As the waves came, Xiaozhi and the others retreated further away from the sea water so that their shoes and trouser legs would not get wet by the sea water. The sea water receded, and the sand dried by the sun was filled with moisture again. The sea gophers that had been hiding in the sand poked their heads out again one by one.

Aster, who had been paying attention to the wild sea rats for a long time, was not surprised. On the other hand, Xiaozhi and the others' eyes lit up, and Xiaozhi said happily.

"It turns out! When the sea water rises and recedes, it can attract the sea rats to come out. This is too simple. Can't I catch them again..."

Just do it. As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaozhi immediately called Pikachu. The two of them were like cunning rabbits who had lost their legs. Xiaoqing and Pipa didn't have time to remind them.

"Xiao Zhi! Don't be impulsive..."

Xiaozhi and Pikachu once again swept through the group of Haitian rats that had just emerged, but the result was still the same, no one was spared, and the wild group of Haitian rats once again hid in the sand.

Ash and Pikachu looked embarrassed.

"Odd, strange! Why is it like this again..."

The disillusioned Zi Wan burst into tears again, and Xiao Qing immediately said angrily.

"Ash, Pikachu! You all know that the sea rats will retreat into the sand, why are you still so rampant?"

Faced with Xiao Qing's rare aggressive momentum, even the crying Aster was shocked. Ash and Pikachu scored twice and once again scratched the back of their heads in embarrassment and explained.

"It's strange. I thought I was mentally prepared, but I still underestimated their speed."

Xiaoqing sighed and said.

"Tell me, what should I do now?"

Xiaozhi said disapprovingly.

"Then wait for the next high tide..."

"Waiting for high tide? I don't know when the next time will be."

Aster spoke at this time.

"It won't take long. It's the windy season in the East Padia Sea recently. Soon the annual Pokémon surfing competition in Nianguang City will be held here, so there are often waves hitting the beach. This is also the case during this period. It’s the time when wild gophers appear in large numbers, and that’s why I go out to capture gophers.”

Xiaozhi was overjoyed.

"Really! That's great. There are so many opportunities to try and make mistakes. Just leave the catching of sea gophers to me."

After talking for a while, the waves washed up on the beach as expected, and the Haitian rats poked their heads out one after another. Xiaoqing immediately stopped Xiaozhi and said.

"Wait a minute, Ash!"

Xiaozhi looked confused.

"I'm here, what's wrong?"

Xiao Qing then put down his outstretched hand and walked away from the road in front of Xiao Zhi.

"I thought you were going to run out again... have you thought of a way to catch the sea gophers?"

Xiaozhi said confidently.

"Of course, we just can't catch up because of our speed! I let the Pokémon I have on hand come out to chase and intercept them, and one of them can catch one of them."

After saying that, he threw the elf ball high and released the fire crocodile, water duck, and mini fu. Xiao Qing also saw the appearance of the Fire Crocodile, and quickly hid behind Zi Yuan, while Zi Yuan looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Okay everyone, we are going to use all our strength to catch one of the sea gophers on the beach, come on!"

"Pika! Gongga! Gada! Fume!"

After that, let’s attack each other!

Pikachu's lightning flash was obviously not suitable for use on the beach, and the soles of his feet slipped and he slipped out again.

At the moment when Minifu was chasing after her, she fell to the ground and declared defeat even before she could get close to the Haitian Rats. She burst into tears.

The short legs of the crocodile were running around happily on the beach, disturbing a group of sea gophers and retreating into the sand. It was more fun than responsibility.

The water duck looked disdainful and stood there, thinking that its white feathers did not touch the slippery body fluids of the sea gopher at all...

Another round failed, and only Xiaoqing, Piper, and Aster were seen enjoying the shade under a big tree. New Leaf Cat also fell asleep snoring beside it. Xiaoqing shouted in the direction of Xiaozhi.

"This is the first time and we haven't caught the sea rat yet. It's too hot at the beach. If we don't catch it again, we will go to the city!"

"It's almost time. I'm about to get the hang of it... Give me another chance and I'll be able to do it next time!"

After hearing this, Xiao Qing shook her head and whispered softly.

"Next time... I don't know how many times I have heard this sentence."

Although the sea breeze brought by the endless seaside is not too hot, the sun's rays on a cloudless day are a bit harsh. Xiaozhi raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his chin and said.

"It's strange. I can't catch it no matter how I try. Could it be that my method is wrong..."

Just when Xiaozhi was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Fire Crocodile playing nearby. He was in a good mood and spoke eloquently, as if he was singing. Unexpectedly, after getting excited during the singing, he launched a singing attack. The shocking sonic attack caused rocks to fly out from the ground, and fell in the air, hitting the sea rat in the sand.

Xiaozhi immediately had an idea and thought to himself.

"By the way, of course the sea rats living deep in the sand will know the vibration caused by movement on land, so we caught it from the air..., but now we don't have any flying Pokémon at hand, so... "

Xiaozhi immediately called Pikachu back to him, then put the three Pokémon he had just released back into the Poké Ball, took out one of the Poké Balls, and leaned back with the Poké Ball in his hand to charge up.

"You can use the Poké Ball to charge up energy in the air..., go ahead, Water Duck!"

Really afraid of what comes, the summoned Teal looked confused in the air and flew towards a slimy sea gopher. The panicked Teal in the air danced and appeared on the beach against the bright sun. The swaying black shadow of the Teal was accidentally spotted by the Haitian Rat that was the target... and the moment it landed on it, it immediately retracted into the sand.

"it's a pity!"

Xiaoqing and the others behind them made sounds of regret. Runduck was panting heavily with lingering fear... but before he could turn around, Xiaozhi used the Poké Ball to subdue him again.

After a moment of peace, the Teal appeared in the sky again... It turned out that Xiaozhi was using his old trick again. This method indeed greatly reduced the risk of being discovered by the Sea Rat. It's just that this was obviously an unintentional development of the fire crocodile, but it was implemented by the mysophobic Runduck.

Fortunately, Runduck has gained experience in the first "air attack" and knows that it only needs to attack one of the sea rats to lose the ability to fight. He immediately changed into a comfortable position in the air, and the wing flapping attack was slashed hard, hitting the side of the sea hamster's abdomen... However, the power of the wing attack was removed by the sea hamster's own lubricating body fluid.

The powerful and heavy attack hit the sand, and the huge impact shook the whole place, causing other sea rats to shrink into the sand.

Xiaozhi slapped his forehead and shouted.

"Damn it, it actually happened like this! The sneak attack failed, and the snake was frightened..."

Just when Xiaozhi was thinking this, and Runduck also thought that the farce could come to an end, two mud-throwing attacks hit Runduck and Xiaozhi in the face respectively... He pushed aside the soil and looked up, it turned out that it was the person who had been hit just now. The sea gopher who had been cut into the side by Runduck didn't move away, and was confronting Xiaozhi and Runduck angrily.

The strange thing is that in addition to the scars on the body of this sea gopher caused by the wing attack of the teal duck, there is also a red scar on the top of its head. Taking a closer look, it turned out that this sea rat was the same one that the Fire Crocodile accidentally injured before... Xiaozhi was overjoyed.

"It's just what I want. The other party is very angry, so we can complete the Pokémon battle normally, right, Water Duck..."

Seeing that the duck didn't respond to Xiaozhi, Xiaozhi turned his attention back to the duck. He saw that the duck's face was also flushed, and the dirty mud soiled his white feathers.

Ignoring Xiaozhi's command, the two white and red Pokémon were attacking each other fiercely with water gun attacks. The eyeless water gun attacks were scattered in all directions, almost hitting Xiaozhi and Pikachu, and all creatures within a dozen meters. Emergency evacuation.

Suddenly, the sea rat stretched out its body hiding in the sand, leaned back and swung it down like a whip, and used a throwing attack to attack the water duck...

The glaring Teal Duck resisted with a water gun, but the water gun attack of the Teal Duck changed its shape. The water gun attack was pressurized and sprayed out like a blade. It was so fast and powerful that even the sticky bodily fluids of the Sea Gopher could not defend it... …

Xiaozhi said hesitantly.

"This is……"

Piper provided timely tips.

"Xiao Zhi, that's the Water Wave Knife. The duck has learned a new skill."

...The Haitian Rat who was hit in the vital part fell to the ground, finally! This group of Haitian rats, which were like frightened birds and could hide in any disturbance, lost their fighting ability due to the efforts of the teal ducks.

Xiaozhi immediately threw the blank Poké Ball. After a while, the capture was completed and everyone cheered.

"Great, I've tamed the sea rat!"
