I got the Pokémon

In the afternoon, Xia You and his group stood at the door and said goodbye to Professor Oak, Dr. Odamaki, Hanako and Xiao Jian.

After lunch, Xiaozhi hurried home to pack his luggage, and now he just came here to meet up with them.

"Then take care of yourself." As the most respected scholar, Professor Oak was the first to speak, "I wish you a successful challenge and all the best."

Dr. Odamaki and Xiaojian naturally also cheered and encouraged. Only Hanako was talking to Xiaozhi in a low voice, constantly reminding him of something.

"Okay, I know everything. I will take good care of myself, don't worry, mom."

Perhaps it was because he was the only one who was treated as a child that Xiaozhi felt a little embarrassed in front of so many people. After agreeing a few words, he quickly left Hanako and stood next to Xia You and the others.

"Then let's go."

Xia You nodded to Professor Oak on behalf of these people, and after him, Xiaoyao, Xiaozhi, Xiaosheng and Xiaogang also waved goodbye to Professor Oak and his companions. Then they left the Oak Research Institute and walked out of the town. Until they left Pallet Town, they could no longer be seen.

……

After leaving Pallet Town, since they had the same destination, the battle factory near Mt. Tsukimi, Xia You and Xiaozhi and the others did not go their separate ways, but traveled together temporarily.

This also made the conversation and laughter along the way more lively.

However, although they walked together, they were still divided into two distinct groups.

Xia You and Xiao Zhi walked side by side at the front, each of them playing the role of captain of their own team. Behind them were Xiao Yao and Xiao Sheng.

Although this pair of siblings walked together and talked in low voices, if you look closely at their positions, you will find that one is following Xia You and the other is following Xiao Zhi. It seems that Xiao Yao has changed her mindset and really regards herself as Xia You's partner.

At the end of the team, Xiaogang was carrying a bag and following Xiaosheng alone. While enjoying the scenery, he was also responsible for the rear guard work.

As we talked, time seemed to pass quickly and the road ahead didn't seem that long.

By the time the group felt tired and thirsty, they were already not far from Yuejian Mountain!

Looking back, seeing that Xiaosheng seemed exhausted and sweat appeared on his forehead, Xia You quickly ordered him to rest.

"Okay, let's rest here for a while and eat something. We'll try to get to Yuejian Mountain before it gets dark and camp there!"

As the oldest person in the group, he naturally has absolute command over the team. Neither Xiaozhi nor Xiaogang have any objection to this. Instead, they think it is normal to obey Xia You's command.

This also has to say what kind of image Xia You has among these people.

Powerful, reliable, and convincing.

And at this time, it is Xiaogang's turn to shine.

While Xia You and the others were collecting firewood, fetching water, setting up the table and placing tableware, Xiao Gang, like a house cook, tied an apron and cooked dinner skillfully and superbly. It didn't take long before the food was served to everyone with the help of the Pokémon.

"I'm gonna start now."

Looking at the delicious vegetable soup in front of her, Xia You picked up the spoon, took a sip, and then gave Xiaogang a thumbs up.

"It's really delicious! It's still as delicious as always!"

Xiaogang's cooking skills are indeed impeccable. Among the people Xia You knows, perhaps only Lijia can compare with him.

When praised by Xia You, Xiao Gang smiled a little embarrassedly.

Looking at Xiaozhi and the others again, perhaps because they ate Xiaogang's cooking every day when they were traveling, they didn't feel anything like Xia You did at this moment. They just felt that the food was as delicious as always.

It seems that their mouths have indeed been pampered by Xiaogang!

Suddenly remembering something, Xia You looked at Xiaoyao and said with a smile, "By the way, I have to state in advance that I only know how to cook simple dishes. If you travel with me, you will have to work harder in terms of food."

Xiaoyao's face suddenly fell.

In addition to shopping and dressing up, she is undoubtedly a food lover. It can be said that when traveling, the last thing she wants to do is to treat her stomach and mouth badly!

But since she had already made the decision, she still smiled bitterly and said, "It doesn't matter, I can just eat something on the way, but when I get to the city, I will definitely have a big meal!"

Everyone chuckled.

Xiaoyao loves to eat delicious food, this is something everyone knows!

Just as everyone was enjoying dinner, the grass near them swayed and a wild Pokémon with a pink, star-like outline emerged from it.

"Eh?" Xiaosheng asked puzzledly when he saw it, "Why would a baby appear in a place like this?"

Just like Xiaosheng said, this is indeed a leather baby.

As the original unevolved form of Pippi and Pixie, Baby Pippi has a pink body, two small black eyes, two brown ears like star horns, a small mouth, and a small curl on the forehead. It looks cute, but not that cute.

It is no wonder that Xiaosheng is curious. After all, according to the habits of the Pibaobao, they usually only appear at night, will not be too far away from the place where the meteor fell, and most of them live in mountainous areas.

But now this place is not only a plain, but it is also dusk. It is really strange that it can appear.

But then I thought again, this place is very close to Yuejian Mountain, which is the habitat of Pibaobao, Pipi and Pixie, so it seems understandable.

It must be because it was playful, so it left Yuejian Mountain and smelled the aroma of food, so it couldn't help but run over.

But for a wild Pokémon, especially a rare one like this, this is undoubtedly very dangerous and is tantamount to walking into a trap.

Fortunately, it met people like Xia You and Xiaozhi, who had no interest in Pokemon. If it were other trainers, they would probably take out the Poké Ball the first time they saw it.

And because he realized that these people had no hostility, Pipo courageously jumped towards them, and then, like a curious baby, he looked at this Pokémon and then that Pokémon from time to time, making Xiaozhi, Xiaoyao and the others' Pokémon speechless and helpless.

"It seems like it's a bit familiar..." Xiaosheng looked at it for a while and shook his head, "It doesn't look like it's lost."

"Are you hungry?"

Xiaoyao stood up and walked to the front of the Pokémon, wanting to see how it was doing. However, compared to how it treated other Pokémon, this Pokémon was obviously very wary of humans. After seeing Xiaoyao approaching, it actually hid behind her Snorlax.

There was no choice but Xiaoyao could only stand where she was.

Fortunately, there was a group of enthusiastic Pokémon around. With their friendly greetings, the Pokémon quickly let down its guard and became friends with them.

For Xia You and the others, this was just a small episode.

In the original anime story, with the appearance of this Pokémon, Ash and his friends were attacked by the three members of Team Rocket, but with Xia You here, those three guys didn't dare to show up!

And if they don't show up and cause trouble, there will naturally be no follow-up.

Things seemed to end here.

After preparing some food for the baby, the group set off again after dinner.

Maybe because they got along well, it only took Pi Baobao more than half an hour to become familiar with them.

The sun slowly sets, and as night slowly covers the earth, the surrounding environment also darkens.

Although it was getting late, it was only half a day since they started from Pallet Town and they had just eaten dinner, so they still had plenty of strength and energy. So they did not camp here, but continued to move towards Yuejian Mountain.

However, just when they arrived at the foot of Yuejian Mountain and before entering the mountain area, they met Pippi and Pixie who came to look for Pibaobao.

These two Pipi and Pixie should be Pibaby’s family members, which can be seen from their anxious expressions.

After exchanging the Pi Baby with them, the group was about to leave, but the Pi Baby stopped them.

At first, everyone didn't understand what it meant, but they soon realized that it was inviting them to visit the interior of Yuejian Mountain!

This is really unexpected.

Several people looked at each other and discussed in a low voice. Including Xia You, they all agreed that sleeping inside Yuejian Mountain for a night might be a better choice than sleeping outside.

Following behind Pi Baobao, along the winding mountain path, the few of them came to the halfway point of the mountain and entered the Yuejian Mountain Cave. They also saw the huge round meteorite placed under the moonlight deep in the cave.

As the moonlight shone, groups of Pixies and Pixies danced around the rocks, looking both cheerful and mysterious.

In fact, for Xiaozhi and Xiaogang, this is their second time to come here, so it can be regarded as a revisit to an old place.

After all, they had come here when they first started their journey. Now entering the cave again, it seemed that everything had changed, yet nothing had changed.

What has changed is that they are no longer the young and inexperienced people who just started out, and have experienced growth and failure. What has not changed is that they are still traveling and are still the trainers chasing their dreams.

For Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng, since it was their first time seeing it, they were naturally very curious, and for Xia You, it also made up for the regret of not having seen it with their own eyes before.

……

After resting for one night in a cave on Mt. Yuemizan, the group set out again early the next morning.

After passing Yuejian Mountain, we are undoubtedly closer to the battle factory.

However, in order to arrive safely, they still need to cross a huge forest. If Xia You is not there, based on the experience and situation of Xiaozhi and his friends, the probability of getting lost in the forest is as high as 95%!

But because Xia You is here, they don’t have to worry about this problem at all.

Whether it's looking at a map, which will never go wrong, or even if they encounter a fork in the road, he will send Dragonite into the air to identify the direction. Because of this, they will almost never go wrong and can always move in the right direction.

I have to say that although this will reduce some surprises during the trip, it is also the most critical reason why Xia You can always create time and distance with Xiao Zhi!

Just as he was about to leave the forest, something cold fell on Xiaosheng's face. He looked up subconsciously and saw a large blue bird Pokémon with long and beautiful feathers flying high in the sky!

The thing that made him feel cold just now was the snowflakes falling from the bird Pokémon as it flew!

"Look! There's a beautiful Pokémon in the sky!!"

Looking in the direction of his finger, Xia You and the others looked up and saw the Pokémon.

"This...is this?"

But when Xiaozhi and Xiaogang saw the appearance of the Pokémon clearly, they were stunned at first, and then subconsciously looked at Xia You.

Feeling the gazes of the two people, Xia You looked at them in surprise.

"What are you looking at me doing?"

"Brother Xia You..." Xiao Zhi hesitated, "Does that mean..."

"That's right." Xia You nodded, "It's Articuno."

"Articuno!?"

Hearing his words, Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng were overjoyed and quickly took out the Pokémon Encyclopedia and aimed at Articuno in the sky.

Just when the brother and sister were busy looking at Articuno, Xiaozhi and Xiaogang looked at Xia You again.

Seeing the questioning in their eyes, Xia You shook her head helplessly: "Don't think too much, this has nothing to do with me. There is more than one Articuno in the world. There are even other forms of Articuno in the Galar region. Isn't it normal to meet one during the journey?"

Having said that, whether it was on Asia Island in the Orange Islands, where they saw the Three Sacred Birds battle against the Three Divine Birds, or on the Crystal Tower in Johto, where they witnessed the Three Sacred Birds battle against the Three Sacred Beasts, they were all deeply impressed by Xia You's Articuno, so the moment they saw Articuno, they immediately thought of him.

But just as Xia You said, this Articuno is obviously not Xia You's.

Articuno appeared for only a moment, and in just over ten seconds, it completely disappeared from their sight.

Because all their attention was on it, Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng did not notice the conversation between Xiayou and Xiaozhi. At this moment, the brother and sister were still immersed in the beauty of Articuno, savoring the fleeting stunning beauty.

"What a pity, it flew away." Xiaosheng shook his head in disappointment, and then sighed, "But I didn't expect to see such a beautiful legendary Pokémon as soon as I came to Kanto. It's really worth the trip!"

More than that!

The man next to you not only owns Articuno, but he also has collected the other two sacred birds!

Xiaozhi really wanted to tell Xiaosheng about this, but after looking at Xia You, he saw that the latter just had a smile on his face and didn't say anything, so he hesitated and didn't speak rashly.

Forget it, I'd better not mention Brother Xia You's bragging. Let's wait for Brother Xia You to talk to them himself about this matter.

"Yeah..." Xiaoyao was also very moved when she heard what her brother said, but she still asked in confusion: "But why is there an Articuno here? There are obviously no snowy mountains or ice fields nearby?"
