Chapter 184: Qingming Festival in the Pokémon World
In the world of Pokémon, fighting is as natural as breathing. Basically, anyone with a Poké Ball on their waist cannot resist the temptation of fighting. In Heath's opinion, Miss Saya is probably a similar type.
"Fight? If you want to challenge me, you have to go to Deep Gray City to register first, and then pass the mineral identification test." Wu Neng became interested. He looked at Saya curiously, with some kindness in his eyes that an elder has towards a young person.
Saya was stunned for a moment. She really didn't know there were these strange rules. Heath looked at Saya with a strange expression. This girl came out to be a trainer without knowing anything? No wonder the Joey family was worried about Saya. If it was Heath, Heath himself would not be worried.
"Ms. Saya, before challenging a gym you need to pass the assessment set by the gym owner. You must know this, right?" Heath reminded Saya with a smile. Saya smiled awkwardly, then ran away quickly with a red face. The excuse she used was something weird like 'I forgot to turn off the gas in the hotel I was staying in', which made Heath feel both amused and helpless.
"Girls nowadays are really shy." Mr. Takeneng said with a smile. Heath handed the prepared braised chicken to Mr. Takeneng, Sakaki and Nancy, then wiped his hands and looked at Mr. Takeneng strangely.
However, Heath did not say anything, and the strong aroma made Wu Neng, Mr. Sakaki and Nancy unable to resist, so they picked up their chopsticks and started eating this unique meal. Heath also told Wu Neng, who was eating it for the first time, some tips on eating braised chicken.
After Wu Neng poured the soup of the braised chicken into the rice and took another bite, he couldn't help but reveal a satisfied expression. Mr. Sakaki also looked at Heath with satisfaction. The braised chicken made by Heath tasted better and better, which made Mr. Sakaki feel amazed.
"Mr. Sakaki, is everything okay in Evergreen City?" Heath looked at Sakaki and asked. It's not like he hadn't asked Sister Feng about Evergreen City, but Sister Feng was very busy most of the time, and the occasional reply she gave was just a few words like 'fine, don't worry', which made Heath feel like he was talking to his own mother.
"It's fine, just the same as usual, but Heath, you don't set up the stall every morning, so everyone is a little uncomfortable." Mr. Sakaki picked up a piece of chicken and stuffed it into his mouth with a smile. The fragrant and flavorful chicken was tender and delicious. It felt like you could even swallow it after taking a bite. Coupled with the rich sauce of the braised chicken, Mr. Sakaki couldn't stop.
Heath couldn't help but smile when he thought of all the various guests. They always had to say goodbye, there was nothing to say about it. It would be a pity not to travel in the world of Pokémon, and Heath had to embark on the journey in order to complete the mission.
"You'll get used to it slowly. By the way, Mr. Code came to my place today and bought a takeaway." Heath looked at his phone. His phone just vibrated. It was a message from Mr. Asong. He said that the eel rice made by Heath was very delicious. The manager in his company was very interested after seeing it and wanted to order one for tomorrow.
Heath replied to the message quickly. Heath had done a lot of takeout before, so he just needed to ask about the types and quantities of food that needed to be provided tomorrow, and he could basically start preparing the ingredients.
"Code." Sakaki's eyes flashed. Code is a very smart and old Alakazam with very strong superpowers. But for some reason, Code did not become a researcher but became a courier instead.
But this doesn't seem strange. There are all kinds of talents in Changqing City. Sakaki, hiding in the dark, has seen a lot of interesting things.
However, the development and expansion of Team Rocket will need to be restricted. Sakaki feels that he does not have the strength to confront the League head-on. To be precise, most of the dark organizations do not have the strength to confront a behemoth like the League head-on.
Team Rocket needs an opportunity, and the dreamy gene clone plan is Team Rocket's opportunity. As long as they can create a powerful Pokémon comparable to a legendary Pokémon, Team Rocket can try to reach out from the darkness.
"Mr. Code is very interesting, but I don't know where he learned his translation accent." Heath smiled. He didn't notice Sakaki's eyes.
"Speaking of interesting things, I think tomorrow's Quartz League is the most interesting thing." Sakaki showed a mysterious smile.
Heath suddenly became interested. What day is tomorrow? Heath couldn't quite remember, but vaguely remembered that it was a day to commemorate deceased relatives and Pokémon, which was somewhat similar to the Qingming Festival in his previous life, except that the Qingming Festival here also had the meaning of commemorating deceased Pokémon.
Heath has been in this world for four years and has lived this kind of life for four years. Every time this season comes, it is particularly easy to rain, and everyone's mood instantly becomes depressed. Heath will also go to worship his predecessor's parents, although he has only inherited their identities.
"Isn't it just that the new champion of the Sinnoh region, Takeran, is coming to visit the Kanto region?" Mr. Takeneng said nonchalantly. He had finished eating. The speed was very fast. No wonder he could have eleven children.
However, when he heard Zhulan's name, Heath couldn't help but think of this person's other name, which is also relatively easy to remember, Shirona.
Sinnoh champion Shirona is a very powerful league champion . In the game Diamond and Pearl, Sinnoh champion Shirona still made many players taste the taste of defeat. She is also a very powerful champion, but Heath remembered that the title of the strongest champion was later taken away by Dante from the Galar region.
"Sinnoh Champion?" Although Heath was very clear about the identity of the Sinnoh Champion, he was definitely going to pretend that he didn't know.
"Well, the Sinnoh champion is a very powerful girl. Her fighting style is aggressive and she has the demeanor of a king. According to the tradition of the league, new champions often need to go to other regions for exchanges. In fact, it is also a way to publicize one's own strength. It is an established habit." Mr. Wu Neng shrugged. In fact, this time's gathering of gym leaders was also due to this reason.
Heath touched his chin. He really didn't know there was such a custom among the alliances before. Why did it feel like a show of muscles?
"After all, this is also a way to attract talents to settle in their alliance." Sakaki calmly took a sip of milk tea.
