Pokémon that goes with the flow

Nibi City is truly worthy of being called the city of stone. Most of the buildings in the city are made directly of unpolished rocks. Even the buildings that are not stone will be decorated with rocks on the surface.

Hoshino and Scorpio just looked left and right, wandering around Nibi City to kill time, and finally walked around to the Pokémon Emporium to purchase the next supplies.

Thanks to the mission rewards and the bonus given by Miss Junsha, Hoshino's deposit exceeded the 5000 yuan mark for the first time, and the system became much more attentive.

【Ding! Dear~, take a look at the system mall, I have all these things here, I guarantee they are all top quality! 】

After hearing what the system said, Hoshino pointed at the price of the Pokémon wound medicine in his hand, which was 100 yuan a bottle. But it costs 125 yuan in the system mall. It can be said that the system mall is generally more expensive than buying it directly in the mall.

【Ding! Dear~, if you don’t have enough daily necessities, you can still look at other props. I have many practical props here, but they are definitely not for sale here! It’s absolutely worth every penny, dear! 】

(Hoshino: Let’s talk about it later when we need it.)

【Ding! Dear~]

Ignoring the hand extended by the system, Hoshino reached out to the can on sale, and happened to touch another person's hand.

"Ah, sorry." x2

The two apologized at the same time. Hoshino looked up and found that the man in front of him was an uncle with squinting eyes and a spiky head.

"Just take this can."

The uncle took the initiative to give the can to Hoshino, and Hoshino quickly thanked him.

"Thank you very much. What about you, uncle?"

"It's okay, I'll just go buy something else."

The uncle waved his hand, and then left with a shopping cart full of things. Next to the uncle was a Pokémon covered in rocks, and the shopping cart pushed by that Pokémon was also filled with products.

[Little Fist Stone, a rock Pokémon, lives in grasslands or mountains. Because it looks like a stone, you will step on it if you are not careful...]

"That uncle bought a lot of things."

Seeing that he had almost bought everything, Hoshino looked up at Scorpio.

"Scorpio, is there anything else you want?"

"Scorpion~"

Scorpio stuck out his tongue and licked his mouth, indicating that he still wanted the delicious canned food from last time.

"Okay, let's go buy it. Bobo happens to like it too, and Lord Chong should also like it."

......

"Auntie, have we met in Joban City?"

Looking at the aunt in front of him who was enthusiastically selling products, Hoshino felt like he had seen this scene before.

"Jiwan City? Oh! That's my cousin, little girl, have you met her before?"

"Uh, yeah, I bought this can there too."

"How's it going! Pokémon likes to eat it! These cans are a hot commodity these days."

While the aunt was selling the goods nonstop, she took out a photo. As expected, they were all exactly the same people, just like Miss Joy and Miss Junsha.

"Look, this is me, and this is my cousin. You bought something from my cousin, so we are acquaintances. How about this, for every two cans you buy from me, I will give you a new product sample bag. ?Others don’t have this kind of discount.”

"Ah, good, good."

In the end, Hoshino bought a lot of things under the unknowing promotion of his aunt.

【Ding! Take notes, take notes. 】

......

Time passed unknowingly, and soon it was afternoon. Hoshino once again stood in front of the door of Nibi Gym, pressed the doorbell, and the door of Nibi Gym finally opened slowly.

Passing through the dark corridor, he soon came to an empty hall. Looking around, he found that no one was here. Just when Hoshino was wondering if the gym trainer was not there, a rush of footsteps came from the corridor nearby.

"Sorry, sorry, I was busy just now and kept you waiting for a long time. I am the gym trainer Wu Neng. Are you here to challenge the gym?"

An uncle walked over quickly, even wearing a pink apron that he didn't have time to take off. If you take a closer look, isn't this the same uncle you met this morning?

"Um, yes, I am Hoshino from Zhenxin Town, here to challenge the gym. Sorry, did I disturb Mr. Wu Neng's busy work?"

"It's okay. This is the responsibility of the gym trainer. You cannot refuse the trainer who comes to challenge."

Having said this, Uncle Wu Neng had already taken off his apron and stood on the high platform.

"Challengers, please step back outside the white line. I'm going to open the battle arena."

Hoshino quickly retreated outside the white line. As Uncle Wu Neng snapped his fingers, the surrounding area instantly became brighter, and the entire venue began to shake violently.

Two steel plates carrying many huge rocks stretched out from both sides and merged in the middle to form the battle site.

"Then let me be the referee!" A childish voice sounded, and a child who was basically a miniature version of Uncle Wu Neng ran over and waved to Hoshino, "Hello, big sister, I am Dalang."

"Uh, hello, Dalang."

"This is my child, let him be the referee."

"Ah! I want to watch daddy play too!"

"I want it too! I want it too!"

Accompanied by a burst of chirping children's voices, a group of children also ran over and reported their names to Hoshino one after another, such as Jiro, Saburo, Shiro, etc. The key is that they all have the same face as Uncle Wu Neng. Can't tell the difference!

"Ah this..."

Although there have been precedents of Miss Joy, Miss Junsha, and the shopping mall aunt, it is still scary to see so many identical faces!

"You are serious, then stay still and don't get too close to here."

Amidst the overwhelming voices of agreement, although Uncle Wu Neng scolded him, he still couldn't help but raise a happy smile.

It wasn't until all the children were settled that Uncle Wu Neng looked at Hoshino again.

"Sorry for wasting time. Please forgive me for my child's immaturity."

"Uh, it doesn't matter, I don't care. By the way, are these all your children, Uncle Wu Neng?"

"Yes, they are all cute, I have another one who is traveling outside."

It seems that because of talking about his children, although Uncle Wu Neng has returned to his unsmiling appearance at the beginning, he feels much more easy-going.

"Yeah, they're all cute."

"Then let's start the game."

Uncle Wu Neng gradually became serious, and then looked at Dalang, who immediately raised his small flag.

"The gym competition of Sister Xiaoxing of Zhenxin Town has officially begun. There are only two Pokémon available. Only the challenger can change Pokémon. The competition begins!"

"Uncle, my first Pokémon is this kid."

Uncle Wu Neng did not take out the elf ball, but pointed to the field. At this time, a stone in the field suddenly moved. After shaking off the dirt on its body, the stone revealed gray skin, raised stone eyebrows, trapezoidal eye sockets, brown irises, and a pair of muscular arms.

It was the little fist stone who stayed with Uncle Wu Neng this morning.

"stone!"

"Little fist stone? The decision is yours! Scorpio!"

"Scorpion~!"

Scorpio, who was lying on Hoshino's head, flew directly to the field and opened his giant pincers, looking full of fighting spirit.

Hoshino's first gym match has officially begun!
