Chapter 8: Outskirts of the Forest
On the second day of winter vacation, Su Hao and Xiao Suizhuan took a steel-armored crow taxi to an unknown forest outside Yangcheng.
The Nameless Forest has been explored countless times by trainers from inside and outside Yangcheng, and the distribution of Pokémon inside has long been familiar to waves of trainers.
Most of the outer areas of the Nameless Forest are filled with novice-level Pokémon. Only by walking a certain distance into the interior can you encounter ordinary-level Pokémon.
Therefore, this forest is the first choice for novice trainers to fight in the wild and capture the animals every year.
Although the ecology here is very suitable for novice trainers to come and explore, in recent days, most trainers have been struggling with their initial Pokémon or pecking each other with novices.
Taking advantage of the fact that the surrounding area is not congested yet, Su Hao can enjoy the battle with Xiao Suizhuan.
----------
After Su Hao entered the forest with Diamond, no Pokémon attacked him immediately.
Many Pokémon with strong desire to attack, such as Orb-Spinner and Rattata, simply closed their eyes and pretended not to see Su Hao and Diamondback after seeing them.
Because people come here every year, most of the Pokémon outside here are reluctant to jump out and attack people. After all, it would be too uncomfortable to hit one and have many people come immediately after.
As expected, just like in the guide, the Pokémon on the periphery here may not work without food.
Su Hao had no choice but to take out a small box of general elf food from the backpack he was carrying.
Su Hao took out a handful of elf food and walked lightly to where little Dara was pretending to be blind.
After Su Hao walked five meters away from Little Lada, Little Lada, who was pretending not to be able to see, immediately opened his eyes and bared his teeth at Su Hao and Little Suitzuan.
Although Ratada was wary, the longing look in its eyes as it looked at the elf food in Su Hao's hand betrayed itself.
Su Hao noticed this and immediately released his waveguide, connecting to the little Rattata and conveying his goodwill to it.
While Bo Dao was conveying his goodwill, Su Hao said to Little Rada, "We have no ill will. As long as you fight my Little Diamond once, the food in my hand will be yours, and if you are injured, we will also treat you."
"Radarada!" After hearing this, Little Ratha felt that the human in front of him was quite trustworthy, and directly took a stance to fight against Little Diamond.
Pokémon: Rattata
Attributes: [General]
Gender: [♂]
Features: [Escape]
Level: [12]
Moves: [Impact, Tail Shake, Lightning Flash, Gather Energy, Bite]
Little Rada is four levels higher than Little Diamond, but Su Hao predicts that Little Diamond can still easily resolve the battle.
As a mouse Pokémon, Rattata has a very small lavender body and agile movements, especially its front teeth.
The incisors are the Rattata's primary means of attack.
It's sharp enough to bite through even hard wood with ease.
Rattata first used Normal-type energy to gather on its front teeth. According to Su Hao's observation, it should be a Normal-type move [Gathering Energy]. Gathering Energy allows the Pokémon that uses it to capture the opponent's weaknesses more accurately.
After using the energy, Little Radamant immediately used the [Bite] move to rush towards Little Diamond.
"Use impact!" Su Hao chose to let Little Diamond hit head-on.
"Na na!" Little Broken Diamond's body showed a white luster, and he ran straight into the incoming Rattata.
"Bang——" There was a collision sound, and as expected, little Rada was knocked away by little Diamond, and little Diamond was not hurt at all.
The knocked-out Rattata struggled to get up, but was so knocked that he lost all strength, so he could only watch Su Hao walk over.
Su Hao took out the wound medicine spray from his backpack again and sprayed it on Ratada's somewhat red and swollen head.
The medicine took effect quickly. Su Hao left the food he had promised to give to little Rada there, and continued to look for his opponent with the little diamond.
Under the temptation of Su Hao's food, many wild Pokémon were knocked down by Diamondback's heavy punches.
Near dusk, the gray body of the Diamond that defeated Nidoran in front of him flashed with light, and its aura became more condensed again.
Su Hao treated Nidoran's wounds as usual, and after handing the food to Nidoran, he cast his eyes towards the panel of the little diamond.
Pokémon: [Diamond] [Mutation 7%]
Attributes: [Rock, Fairy]
Gender: [none]
Characteristics: [Eternally pure body]
Level: [11→12]
Moves: [Impact, Harden, Magic Shine, Meteor Beam, Reflective Wall, Light Wall, Primordial Power, Defense Deuce, Knockdown (New)]
At the end of the day, Diamond's level was directly raised to level 12, and he also learned a new move [Shoot Down], which can target Pokémon flying in the sky to a certain extent.
------------
After completing a day's training, Su Hao and Little Diamond took the agreed Steelix taxi back home.
Su Hao hung the empty backpack on the wall and took out the pink diamond out of thin air.
That's right, the backpack can conceal Su Hao's ability to take things out of thin air through the system, but there is no need to act in a private room for the time being.
After placing the pink diamond next to the small diamond, Su Hao turned on the computer in his room and found the Pokémon puzzle cartoon "Princess Pikachu and Her Knight Aledo" to play.
In addition to fighting, Su Hao also hopes that Diamond can have some other hobbies. After all, overtime work in the Shenzhou Alliance usually has a generous four-fold salary, and Pokémon also needs a combination of work and rest. Su Hao decided to let Diamond watch some cartoons today.
"Elf Princess Pikachu and Her Knight Eluredo" is an animated film that tells the story of Princess Pikachu and her knight Eluredo who were sent out in advance by the king after their country was occupied by villains.
Next, Princess Pikachu and Knight Aledo met many friends while traveling, and finally rushed into the kingdom castle with their friends, defeated the villain, and rescued the king.
The meticulous production coupled with the professional acting of Pikachu, who plays Princess Pikachu, keeps people watching even though the plot is very old-fashioned.
Not to mention the little Diamond next to him who was already fascinated by the pink diamond, even Su Hao himself thought that this cartoon was very interesting, and it was worthy of the Pokémon movie with an online rating of 9.8.
After just a quick look, Su Hao forced himself to sit on the desk beside him, took out his notebook, and began to organize today's training situation and future training plans.
Diamond currently has the skills of hardening and double wall, so there is no need to strengthen the defense for the time being.
On the contrary, before she transforms into Diancie, she needs to practice her attacking abilities.
As your diamond level increases, the opponents you encounter will definitely become more diverse.
There will definitely be opponents who use abnormal status moves. At this time, the slow speed of the small diamond will become a natural target, and it is basically impossible to avoid being infected with abnormal status.
Su Hao currently thinks of two solutions. One is the [Mysterious Guard] move, which can not be affected by the opponent's abnormal moves. Unfortunately, it will be more difficult for Little Broken Diamond and Dianxi to learn the Mysterious Guard, but through systematic cultivation Functions can be learned quickly.
It takes 1000 system currencies for Small Diamond to learn Mystic Guardian.
Su Hao and Xiao Sui Zuan fought for two consecutive days these past two days before they obtained 100 system currencies through the ever-present task of [Fight and Win].
Compared to the currency that would take some time to collect, Su Hao preferred the second option - improving the offensive capabilities of the small diamonds.
Su Hao remembered that the little diamond was described in this way in the Pokémon illustrated book in his previous life.
"It emits high-energy rays from the gem buried in its body, destroying all incoming enemies."
Diamond should be highly adaptable to light-based moves, such as Magic Flash, Meteor Beam, etc. You can start by using Diamond to use these attacks.
Just like that, Su Hao planned until the city became completely quiet. The little Diamond next to him had already fallen asleep while watching cartoons, and was carried to the crib by Su Hao.
Su Hao turned off the desk lamp, lay down on the bed and slowly fell asleep.
