Chapter 949: Paw Print Hill and Rock Dog

Night fell quietly. Tonight, Xiaozhi ended his special training early and walked towards home with Pikachu, Eevee and others.

When they passed through a quiet forest, Pikachu and Eevee on their shoulders suddenly shouted in unison: "Pikachu!" "Eevee!"

At the same time, a blue light flashed on Xiaozhi's body, and the power of the wave extended out, and a rock dog was seen limping towards them.

"Rock Dog?!" Xiaozhi couldn't help but exclaimed.

Isn't this Rock Dog the one that Professor Kukui fostered at home? Although it is not the professor's Pokémon, Xiaozhi once heard from the professor that this Rock Dog came to his home by chance, and after eating the Pokémon food given by the professor, it became very close to the professor and stayed in his home. However, at this moment, the Rock Dog is covered with scars and looks very weak.

When Rock Dog came out from the depths of the forest and saw Xiaozhi and the others, he immediately ran over excitedly. Pikachu, Eevee and other Pokémon landed and greeted him enthusiastically.

Rotom flew over and circled Rock Dog a few times to check for injuries, "These are scrapes, cuts and scratches, and there are also burns, Lotom!"

Hearing Rotom's words, Xiaozhi stepped forward, carefully picked up Rock Dog, and looked at its wounds. "Where did you go to fight, little guy? You got so many wounds?"

After saying that, Xiaozhi activated the power of Tokiwa, and a gentle force surged out from his hands and slowly injected into the body of Rock Dog.

With the infusion of Evergreen's power, the wounds on the rock dog began to heal slowly. A green halo bloomed from its body, and after a short while, its injuries were completely healed.

The rock dog felt the changes in its body and barked excitedly, wagging its tail and rubbing Xiaozhi with the rock attached to its neck.

This is the rock dog's way of greeting people in a friendly way, but for ordinary people, being touched by such rocks would be quite painful. However, for Xiaozhi, it is not a big deal at all.

Since Ash lives not far from Professor Kukui, Rockdog often comes to play with Ash, so they have a good relationship.

Xiaozhi stared at the rock dog in front of him, his eyes flickering with thought. Suddenly he raised his eyebrows, as if he had thought of something important: "Are you going to evolve soon?"

Rock Dog is a Pokémon that has a close relationship with humans. Since they met, Rock Dog has always been very docile and well-behaved. However, it was already late at night, and Rock Dog was still going out to fight. This abnormal behavior made Xiaozhi realize that Rock Dog might be about to change.

In fact, as they grow up, their tempers will gradually become more aggressive. When they start to make long, distant barks at dusk, it often means that they are about to evolve. What is more noteworthy is that when they evolve, they will temporarily leave their trainer and will return to their trainer after the evolution is completed.

So Xiaozhi brought Rock Dog to Dr. Kukui's research institute. Unexpectedly, Dr. Kukui had already attached great importance to this matter and installed multiple cameras at home to record the status of Rock Dog at home.

It can be seen from the video that this is obviously not the first time that the rock dog has returned home seriously injured, but it has had similar experiences many times.

"Huh? Xiaozhi, you're here!" Dr. Kukui was studying today's video. When he saw Xiaozhi coming back with Rock Dog, he guessed what had happened and quickly asked him to watch the video together.

When Rock Dog saw his own figure appear on the screen, he barked excitedly.

The video shows that at first, the rock dog behaved normally, playing alone at home and waiting for the doctor to return.

"I'm more interested in the latter part." Dr. Kukui fast-forwarded the video to dusk. The rock dog seemed to be summoned by some mysterious force, dropped the ball in its hand, became extremely excited, and then rushed out of the small door that Dr. Kukui had specially left for it.

"Then you brought it back." Dr. Kukui turned off the video and explained, "It was about this time last night. When I returned home, I found the rock dog lying on the ground, covered in wounds. So I quickly treated it."

Xiaozhi gently touched the rock dog's head, and the rock dog immediately rubbed it with the rock on its neck, seeming to enjoy the touch very much.

Then Xiaozhi had an idea and told Dr. Kukui his guess. After thinking for a moment, Dr. Kukui agreed with Xiaozhi's opinion.

So they decided to wait until dusk tomorrow and then quietly follow the rock dog to see where it went.

After the class ended the next day, Xiaozhi and Dr. Kukui hurried back home, but did not rush into the house. Instead, they found a place to hide not far from Dr. Kukui's research institute.

Through the cameras installed in the institute, they can clearly observe the rock dog's every move in the house.

Dr. Kukui specially prepared a doll of the same size as the rock dog as its new toy.

Rock Dog likes this doll very much and often plays with it.

However, just as dusk approached, something unexpected happened.

The rock dog suddenly showed a ferocious expression to the doll, let out a low growl, and glared at the doll with bared teeth, as if warning the other party not to come near.

At this moment, the rock dog looks more like a ferocious wolf cub than a cute puppy.

It pounced on it, bit the doll fiercely, and then twisted its neck vigorously, throwing the doll away. If it were a real flesh and blood body, it would definitely be torn apart and horrible to look at.

This aggressive behavior shows that the Rock Dog is going through growth and change, and its final evolutionary form is the wolf!

At this moment, the rock dog seemed to be summoned by some mysterious force again. After a low roar, it quickly rushed out of the door and ran towards the depths of the forest without hesitation. It was so fast that it disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

Xiaozhi and Dr. Kukui are both in excellent physical condition, and they can easily keep up with Rock Dog. Finally, they came to a strange hill.

The sight before one's eyes makes one gasp: the red stone pillar is like a huge and ferocious claw, stretching from the ground to the sky, and it is particularly eye-catching in the forest.

At the top of the tallest stone pillar, two ferocious wolves were howling toward the sky. Their voices echoed throughout the forest, causing other Pokémon to respond.

Soon, those Pokémon in the forest who thought they were powerful gathered here, and the scene was spectacular.

A careful observation reveals that the two ferocious wolves are just different evolved forms of the Rock Dog - the Maned Rock Werewolf!

The evolution of the rock dog is closely related to day and night. During the day, it will evolve into a daytime form, showing a handsome giant wolf appearance. It has soft light brown hair and light blue eyes that reveal a mysterious light. There are four sharp bristles on its neck, which makes it look particularly majestic.

At night, the rock dog will evolve into a night form, which is completely opposite to the day form. It walks upright on its two feet, its dark red hair is like burning flames, and its eyes are red and full of evil. There is no mane on its neck, but instead there is a flowing mane behind its head and a sharp mane piercing its forehead, giving people a fierce and wild feeling.

"It's amazing that we can see both the day and night forms of Rock Dog here at the same time, Rotom!" Rotom excitedly stood not far from Xiaozhi and kept taking pictures to record this rare scene.

Dr. Kukui was also excited. He said excitedly: "So this is the legendary Paw Print Hill!"

At their summons, many powerful Pokémon such as Infernape, Megatron, Gallant, Toucan, Brave Eagle, Panda, and Charmander gathered together. They formed a circle on the platform in the palm of their hands and formed a huge arena.

These Pokémon all exude a powerful aura, as if they are ready for a fierce battle at any time.

Rock Dog has also joined in, jumping up and down excitedly, wagging its tail, and standing in a row with Pokémon of similar size, such as Vulture Girl and Arm Strength.

Together, they let out an impassioned roar, full of power, echoing in the dark night sky!

Apparently, the Rock Dog was also attracted by the summons of the two Wolfmen. Over the past few days, it has been fighting fiercely with other Pokémon here. Its body is covered with scars, but there is excitement in its eyes.

Amidst the noise, two Wolf Manes started a fierce duel!
