Chapter 921 Riolu

Leave Umbreon and Flame Chicken outside the tent and let them watch the campfire and also be responsible for the night watch.

After all, we are at the edge of the forest, and wild Pokémon will run out from time to time, especially late at night, which is the best time for those ferocious Pokémon to be active. If you don't keep watch, it will be easy for them to break into the tent.

Of course, the most important thing is that night watch is not just about guarding against Pokémon.

Human beings are always the most dangerous and unpredictable creatures in the world! No doubt about it!

Therefore, guarding against one's own kind is far more important than guarding against Pokémon!

After arranging all these and adding some branches to the fire, Xia You simply washed up and went into the tent.

Although he didn't fall asleep immediately, the entire camp became completely quiet at this moment.

Only the occasional breeze and the creepy chirping of some unknown bird Pokémon in the forest occasionally echoed and sounded in the night.

The flame chicken sat in front of the campfire and poked it gently with a wooden stick, so that the flame would not go out but also burn slower.

Beside it, the Moon Eevee looked up at the bright moon, then glanced around with a scrutinizing gaze. After confirming that everything was normal, it lay down on the dry ground.

Crackling...

The firewood made a sound under the burning flames.

I don't know how much time passed, but Umbreon's eyes suddenly opened, and even Flammel pricked up its ears.

The two Pokémon listened attentively, and soon they saw a dark shadow quietly approaching from the other end of the camp under the cover of night.

This immediately alerted the two Pokémon.

They stood up almost at the same time, and then divided into two groups, one on the left and one on the right, and moved lightly to encircle the black shadow.

When they approached quietly, they found that it was actually a small Pokémon that was rummaging through the garbage piled nearby, as if trying to find something.

The garbage was filled with food scraps from Xia You's recent cooking, but since almost all of it had been eaten by the Pokémons, there was actually nothing edible except for the smell.

But obviously, this tiny Pokémon didn't know this and continued to search there carefully.

Just at this moment, Umbreon let out a low growl, which suddenly scared it.

When the Pokémon turned around, the moonlight happened to shine on it, and the bright light coming from the tent also allowed Flammel and Umbreon to see its appearance clearly.

It was less than one meter tall, with a blue body, like a standing puppy, with two sharp bumps on its head, drooping black ears, and a tail. Although its face could not be seen clearly, its eyes were glowing red in the night!

After being startled, this Pokémon did not run away. Instead, it threatened Flammulina and Umbreon, as if to tell them not to meddle in its business.

In the tent, Xia You, who had not yet fallen asleep, heard the noise outside and came out in her pajamas.

When he saw the Pokémon clearly, his eyes lit up.

"Eh? Riolu!?"

That’s right, the Pokémon that appeared in the camp was a Riolu!

Speaking of this kind of Pokémon, many people should be familiar with it.

As the original form of Lucario, Riolu can use a strange energy called "wave guide", which can read people's hearts and use it for combat. It can also observe the emotions of people and Pokémon, as well as the appearance of nature in the form of waves, and even see whether people's hearts are good or bad. It can use wave guide to communicate with companions without even speaking, and generally will not easily approach dangerous opponents. It can be said that it is a very unique Pokémon.

This so-called waveguide is a kind of biological energy possessed by every person and Pokémon. Although it is often mistaken for superpowers or psychic energy, it is actually a kind of biological energy vibration that can only be controlled by trained humans and some Pokémon.

Throughout history, there have been some people who were able to sense this wave energy and control it, use this power to do good, and pass on the techniques to other people who could use the wave. Therefore, they were called wave messengers. There were also some well-known heroic deeds, and they were called wave warriors.

Xia You naturally didn't want to be a messenger or a hero of the wave, but he was still very interested in taming a Riolu.

This kind of Pokémon is really cool and handsome!

I can’t say that this is the case for everyone, but a large number of trainers have already fallen in love with this Pokémon just based on its appearance.

But unfortunately, as people know, Riolu can sense the good and evil in people's hearts. Although many people want to capture it, only a very small number of people can become this kind of Pokémon trainer.

And Xia You is one of these people.

Whether in previous games or anime, Riolu has always been his favorite Pokémon. Therefore, long before coming to Sinnoh, Riolu had been on his list of must-captures. Now that he sees it with his own eyes, he naturally can't miss it.

Although Xia You didn't know what kind of person he was in the eyes of Riolu's guide, he also thought that he was a good person except for his lifestyle.

But in fact, he never wanted Riolu to use the wave to identify himself.

For him, all he has to do is defeat and capture Riolu like he captures other Pokémon!

This is undoubtedly the simplest and most effective method.

After seeing the human figure, this Riolu was quite decisive and turned around and ran away.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

But now that Xia You has discovered it, how can I let it go so easily?

"Follow me!"

Following his order, Flammulina and Umbreon jumped out at the same time, following Riolu and heading back into the forest.

Seeing this, Xia You released the Charizard and asked it to stay to protect the sleeping Xiaoyao and the camp, then ran into the woods.

I have to say that this Riolu has very good endurance and is very familiar with the terrain of the forest. It turns left and right, occasionally going into the bushes, and occasionally going around a big tree, and soon left Xia You far behind.

But it can get rid of Xia You, but it can't get rid of his Pokémon.

The night and the complex forest are the greatest protection for wild Pokémon, but in front of Umbreon, all of this is ineffective.

In the name of the moon, under such a night, the Moon Eevee can be seen even more clearly than during the day.

This also allows it to follow Riolu closely. No matter where Riolu runs, it will always be eye-catching in its eyes.

Not to mention the flame chicken.

Its excellent jumping ability means that it doesn't need to walk on any complicated ground to avoid branches and stones. It can just jump lightly onto the tree trunk and follow easily.

It can be said that in front of these two Pokémon, no matter how Riolu runs, it will not be able to escape.

For Xia You, all he had to do was follow the trails left by Blaziken and Umbreon, and he didn't have to worry about losing his target or getting lost.

After just a few minutes of chasing, Riolu was trapped by two Pokémon under a huge rock, with nowhere to run.

Looking at the two Pokémon that were eyeing him hungrily, Riolu growled, trying to scare them away, but unfortunately, no matter how he threatened them, the two Pokémon in front of him remained indifferent.

And through the wave guide, Riolu felt their powerful strength, which made him dare not act rashly.

In short, it can't run away, and it can't fight back, so it's stuck here.

Just at this time, Xia You also arrived.

He wasn't surprised at all to see Riolu being caught up by two Pokémon, in fact, it would have been shocking if Riolu actually got away!

When he saw Xia You, Riolu looked over as if he was facing a great enemy.

Smiling at it, Xia You took out a can of Pokémon food from his pocket, opened it, and shook it at it.

"From the look of you just now, you must be hungry, right? I have some delicious food here, would you like to try it?"

Unfortunately, the trick of tempting with food doesn't work on all Pokémon.

Faced with this fragrance, Riolu's Adam's apple moved, but he remained unmoved and just continued to stare at Xia You.

In fact, Riolu came to the camp to look for food not because he was hungry. After all, there were fruits growing everywhere in such a big forest. How could he be hungry?

It's just that human food smells so delicious that it arouses its appetite!

This is also why Riolu waited until so late, until everything was quiet, before sneaking up to the camp and searching for food leftovers.

But I didn’t expect that these two Pokémon raised by humans were so alert!

Even though it moved very quietly and carefully, it was still discovered and chased all the way here.

Of course, even if someone finds out, it doesn’t matter. The worst that can happen is that you can just run away.

But what really makes it difficult is the powerful waves emitted by the Pokémon raised by these two humans, as well as the terrifying energy contained in this human!

Yes, as is widely known, it can indeed see this form of energy in living things and tell whether they are good or bad, and whether they are powerful or not.

From childhood to adulthood, it has seen many other humans, but no matter who they are, the energy contained in them is not as terrifying as the man in front of it!

What did it see?

It saw a phoenix-like vitality and a coordination ability from the deep sea, which radiated from the depths of this man's soul, protecting and influencing him.

Actually, it’s nothing, it just makes it feel that this human being is very special.

But what really terrified it was the powerful pressure emanating from the Pokémon around the man's waist and below his body!

In its eyes, with just a little perception, it can sense these forces, which are so clearly visible, and through the form of waveguides, it can hardly breathe!

That feeling is like being stared at by many pairs of malicious eyes at the same time!

Under such pressure, the good or bad character of this man has become the most inconspicuous and the least likely to attract its attention.

Xia You naturally didn't know what Riolu was thinking or what he was afraid of.

Seeing that this trick didn't work, he could only put the can away and took out a Poké Ball from his waist bag.

And this action made Riolu extremely nervous.

But in the next second, as the man threw the Poké Ball, a frog-like Pokémon appeared in front of it under the flashing blue light, which made Riolu breathe a sigh of relief.

It can be said that the wave emitted by this frog-like Pokémon is the weakest one on this man, and is almost equivalent to himself.

On the side, seeing Xia You sending out Frog, Blaziken and Umbreon naturally knew what their trainer was going to do, so they all took a few steps back, leaving some fighting space for the two Pokémon.

Xia You also spoke at this time.

"Well, since soft tactics don't work, I'll have to use hard tactics. Whether you like it or not, you have to fight my Pokémon now. But as long as you can defeat Frog, I'll let you go and I won't regret it. But if you lose, you can only become my Pokémon."

Riolu didn't answer him, but his eyes were still on the Frog, with a cautious look.

The croaking bubble frog croaked twice, staring with its big frog eyes and looking back.

Although they were still very weak, in their most basic form, and their bodies did not look that strong, the will to fight was slowly forming on this field.

Just as the sound of a bird chirping in the distance broke the brief silence, the two Pokémon moved at the same time.

The bright moonlight facilitated the battle and also allowed Xia You to see what was happening more clearly in the dark.

I saw the Bubble Frog leap forward and then spray water from the gun at Riolu. At this moment, Riolu flipped to the side, dodging the attack of the water gun and quickly ran towards the Bubble Frog.

In terms of attributes, as a Pokémon with pure fighting attributes, Riolu at this stage is undoubtedly better at close combat, which means that it can only use effective attack methods when it is facing Froggy head-on.

Xia You naturally wouldn't let it do as it wished.

After all, before Frog's strength has grown, it is still very disadvantageous to fight against a Fighting-type Pokémon.

“Use foam.”

His voice came out softly, which made Bubble Frog, who was about to rush over to fight Riolu, stop in time. He reached back and grabbed a lot of foam and sprinkled it on Riolu.

Even though Riolu had never dealt with Pokémon like Froggy before, and didn't know what the white bubbles flying towards him were, he still instinctively avoided them.

In the next second, its figure disappeared right in front of the Bubble Frog, and then it rushed towards the Bubble Frog from the flank at an extremely fast speed!

"It's a flash of lightning..." Xia You nodded, but also smiled, "In that case, let's use the same move, Bubble Frog, use a flash of lightning!"
