This time out, Aoki left Weavile and Honchkrow, who had just evolved successfully, in the backyard.
Now their level has reached level 39, only one step away from the elite level.
However, those who have just upgraded cannot immediately upgrade their level again, and it takes a certain amount of time to train and accumulate.
And this time Aoki and Steven go out, Weavile and Honchkrow are not suitable to appear in front of Steven.
Since you can't get exercise when you go out and can only stay in the Pokéball, why not just stay in the backyard and not go out?
You can also exercise freely here, and almost no one will show up.
Weavile and Honchkrow are bored and can go to the backyard to find some wild Pokémon to fight and exercise.
So after telling the reason for this matter to Weavile and Honchkrow, although the two Pokémon were a bit reluctant, they still agreed.
After all, they are not suitable to appear when they are in the Aoki Alliance.
Fortunately, Aoki bought them some skill TMs this time, and it will take some time to practice these skills after learning them.
Then the Pokémon that Aoki went out with this time were mainly Slowking and Skorupi, and Haunter would stay in Aoki's shadow alone as the last line of defense, and he didn't need to show up until an emergency.
And Aoki's Haunter has been exposed before, representing his alliance identity.
Then there are Torchic, Poliwag, Aron, and Mudkip.
In addition, Slowking and Skorupi happened to be the standard six Pokémon of the alliance.
Finally, add a Tropius as a flying tool. This is all the Pokémon that Aoki brought with him this time.
As for Larvitar, just stay in the backyard for the time being, and Aoki will leave enough food.
When they learned that they were going to go out with Aoki to practice, Aron and the others were overjoyed.
It's finally time to start fighting!
This is the first step of their growth in Aoki's hands!
...
The next day.
After finishing packing, Aoki took the Tropius and left Verdanturf Town again.
When flying away, Aoki saw from a distance that the construction of the Pokémon Center was almost completed.
The efficiency of this alliance construction team is really no one else.
Aoki also saw a group of people in black suits entering Verdanturf Town with various instruments and notebooks in their hands.
These men wear the Devon logo on their chests.
It was Steven who sent the investigation and data collection personnel from Devon Corporation yesterday.
The efficiency is also really high.
Regarding this, Aoki was quite relieved and left directly in the Tropius.
...
At the entrance of the Pokémon Center in Verdanturf Town, Aoki, who was dressed in the uniform of a league trainer, was waiting at the entrance.
Although the agreed time was twelve noon, Aoki arrived twenty minutes earlier.
Fortunately, Steven didn't keep Aoki waiting for a long time. So far, he wears a wide hat, and when looking at him, only the nose and mouth can be seen, and the eyes are hidden under the hat.
He was still wearing the same small black suit, and the neat clothes were ironed very neatly.
Even if the appearance is covered, Steven's outstanding temperament still has a high rate of turning heads in Verdanturf Town.
It is much better than someone like Aoki, who looks ordinary, wears ordinary clothes, and can't be found in the crowd.
Just when Steven walked over, Aoki also saw some girls on the street in Verdanturf Town, pointing at Steven, looking shy, apparently discussing how to approach him.
"What's the use of wearing a hat if you're dressed like this?" Aoki looked at Steven, walking in with a speechless expression on his face.
Only after getting closer can I see Steven's sly eyes shining under his wide hat.
Dressing like this has been his habit since childhood, but he can choose to wear a hat to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"Wear a hat so as not to be recognized by others. Then I probably won't be able to escape this time." Steven spread his hands.
Although the rate of turning heads is still high, at least you won't be recognized, that's enough.
Aoki was a little speechless.
"Let's go, let's go straight up from here." Steven pointed to the mainland behind the Pokémon Center in Verdanturf Town.
Verdanturf Town is located on the back of Mount Chimney. Due to the perennial wind direction, there will never be volcanic ash in this area of Verdanturf Town.
As a result, most people who want to climb Mount Chimney start from Verdanturf Town.
This is also one of the main reasons why Verdanturf Town can develop.
In order not to be so obtrusive, of course, the two walked from Verdanturf Town to Mount Chimney like other trainers.
There may be more people at the beginning, but relatively, there will be fewer wild Pokémon that suddenly appear, and the degree of danger will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, although there are many people in the first half of the mountain, it is much more convenient to move forward.
When reaching the middle stage, the number of people will drop sharply, and many trainers do not have the strength to go beyond the middle stage.
Because at this time, the level of wild Pokémon on the mountain will be higher, and the number will also increase significantly.
The trainers who can reach this step are not weak.
But how many such trainers can there be?
After walking through the middle section and reaching the mountainside of Mount Chimney, that is when we really entered the dangerous zone.
There are many powerful Pokémon in it. If you are unlucky, it is not impossible to meet a quasi-champion or even a champion.
If you really encounter it, you can ask for blessings if you can escape.
So many people go to Mount Chimney, but most of them just join in the fun.
Not many people have ever reached the real top of the mountain.
Those who are strong are too lazy to go to the hot environment like Mount Chimney to find invisible opportunities, and those who are weak cannot go up. Only those trainers who really like adventure will go to the top of Mount Chimney.
The summit of an active volcano.
Do you really think that anyone can bear such a temperature?
Steven and Aoki walked on the road, and the rate of turning heads was really high.
But it has nothing to do with Aoki, it's all about looking at Steven.
But even so, it made Aoki feel a little uncomfortable.
Being ignored all the time, even if you don't care, you will feel a little uncomfortable, right?
"I said, Steven, do you do this every time you go out?" Aoki asked.
"Yes, this hat is my favorite one. Actually, I don't like wearing hats, but I can't help it. He's so handsome." Steven stretched out his hand and lowered the brim of the hat, lowering his head and said.
"..."
You don't get my point at all, do you?!
Wearing this hat is very mysterious and attracts more attention, don't you know it?
Maybe if you don't wear it, you won't have such a high return rate.
"We still don't have to leave. I feel like I'm locked in a zoo." Aoki felt a little headache.
Steven glanced at Aoki in surprise.
So high-profile? Fly directly?
If Aoki knows Steven's thoughts, he will definitely give him a brain seed. Whose reason is it? Don't you have any idea?
