"If you look closely now, there are some vague parts in the information of many Pokémon..." Guan Liyuan said while looking at the illustrations.

"That's right. Although the information in the illustrations is updated in real time every month, except for some common Pokémon, although the race values ​​of other Pokémon are easy to determine, many habits cannot be concluded by studying only a few individuals." Xiaoxia said.

Guan Liyuan also found that many Pokémon whose evolution conditions in the games he knew were "communication" or "carrying special props to communicate" still had unknown evolution conditions in this world.

However, Guan Liyuan thought about it carefully and realized that the real condition should not be "communication evolution".

"Communication evolution" refers to some Pokémon that need to connect with friends in the game and then exchange Pokémon. The exchanged Pokémon will evolve, such as the evolution of Alakazam, the evolution of Haunter to Gengar, and the evolution of Gorilla to Magnus.

However, in the real Pokémon world, the principle of "communication evolution" is not scientific, and wild Magnus and Gengar also exist. The most important thing is that if it really only needs to be exchanged to evolve, it would not have been discovered for so long!

So far, there are cases where humans have cultivated this type of Pokémon and caused them to evolve, but because there are not many examples, their evolutionary conditions are not clearly understood.

Guan Liyuan had discovered before that the breeding of Pokémon in this world is not as simple as in the game, where you can raise a male and a female Pokémon from the same egg group together and then wait for them to lay eggs. Some Pokémon are extremely difficult to breed artificially, so Xiaoxia questioned whether he could open a breeding house.

At this time, Guan Liyuan and Xiaoxia were walking at the foot of Yuejian Mountain after dark, preparing to go to the "haunted hotel"...

The original name of this hotel is "Wakamatsu Hotel", and the owner has been operating here for more than 30 years. Because this "town" is just a collection of shops that serve trainers who come to Yuejian Mountain, it is not a real town. The flow of people who come here to work and run businesses is also very large. The owner of Wakamatsu Hotel is one of the few old "locals"!

Although Guan Liyuan and Xiaoxia heard some rumors about the haunted "Rukamatsu Inn" when they were at the Pokémon Center, it only made them more determined to find out the truth...

"You are really brave... Most girls wouldn't go there at this time, right?" Guan Liyuan said, looking at Xiaoxia in surprise.

"Of course! It's just a supernatural legend, but it can't scare me!" Xiaoxia said proudly.

"If I had this kind of courage when facing insects..." Guan Liyuan muttered in a low voice.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" The word "threat" was written on Xiaoxia's face.

"Ahem, I mean it's thanks to you that you gave me the courage..."

After traveling with Xiaoxia for more than a month, Guan Liyuan naturally knew her weakness of being afraid of insects.

Whether it was an ordinary insect or a Pokémon that looked like a bug, Xiaoxia was very resistant...

But when facing a bug-type Pokémon that didn't look like a bug, she didn't show any abnormality, so Guan Liyuan judged that she was simply afraid of insects, not that she had any opinion on bug-type Pokémon!

Guan Liyuan originally thought that Xiaoxia would give up going to Wakamatsu Inn because of the "haunting", but he didn't expect Xiaoxia to be a bit foolish and bold when it comes to things other than bugs.

"But Wakamatsu Inn is really far from other people's shops..." Guan Liyuan said.

Although there is no concept of a "small town" here, but it is more like a supply station, the location of Wakamatsu Inn is indeed not very sociable.

Other people's shops are all around the Pokémon Center, and Wakamatsu Inn is actually about a kilometer away, standing alone at one of the entrances to Tsukimiyama.

The two walked for a while, and then they saw a hotel that looked a bit shabby in the distance. There were only some lights in the lobby, and other places were dark. It should be really uninhabited!

However, just as Guan Liyuan and Xiaoxia approached, they heard that the lobby seemed to be "bustling"...

"We are so lucky, there is actually a hotel here, let's stay here tonight!"

"Suddenly there is a hotel in the wilderness, Xiaozhi... don't you think it's suspicious? Otherwise, let's go camping..."

"Huh? Why camp when there is a hotel?"

"Pika Pika..."

"Let's stay here! I'll treat you all. Tomorrow I'll ask you two to accompany me to investigate Yuejian Mountain."

When Guan Liyuan heard the voice of "Pika Pika", he suddenly felt that the gloomy atmosphere of the entire hotel was destroyed.

"There are actually other people staying here?" Xiaoxia saw that there were already three people in front of the counter.

One of them looked resolute and had a slightly spiky hairstyle. The other wore a red and white ball hat and a Pikachu sat on his shoulder... These two people looked about the same age as Xiaoxia, while the third one was much older, in his twenties, wearing glasses and a white coat, dressed like a researcher.

"Ah! It's you!" Xiaoxia suddenly pointed at the boy in the baseball cap and shouted.

"Eh? This girl looks familiar..." The boy in the baseball cap looked at Xiaoxia and showed a thoughtful look.

"Asshole! You bicycle thief, you dare to pretend to forget!" Xiaoxia immediately entered the revenge mode.

Although Guan Liyuan wanted to complain: In fact, it would be better if you didn't have a bicycle, at least you could walk slower on the way to get lost.

At this moment, a hoarse voice came over: "You guys, do you want to stay in the hotel or not? Don't disturb other guests!"

An old man who looked short because of his hunched back, with a wrinkled face, looked a little gloomy, and a fierce expression, was seen scolding at the counter.

Hearing the old man's words, the resolute boy who seemed to be afraid of ghosts was startled again, but at this moment, the old man looked at Guan Liyuan: "Hey! Brat, what are you doing with the Pokémon Encyclopedia? Do I look like a ghost-type Pokémon?"

"Ahem, no, no, I'll wipe the screen..." Guan Liyuan pretended to be fine.

The young man who looked like a researcher came over and persuaded her, "Forget it, beautiful lady, there may be some misunderstanding between you and Xiaozhi. Let's put it this way... this money is compensation for your bicycle." Xiaoxia

took the banknotes handed over by the researcher, took a look at them, returned most of them, and said, "I have ridden my new model of Xilang for two months. After the second-hand discount, it will probably cost this much... Don't be a thief in the future!"

Guan Liyuan naturally knew that Xiaoxia was not short of this little money, she just wanted to teach her a lesson.

"I'm not a thief. I was just in a hurry to treat the Pokémon." Xiaozhi retorted in a low voice.

"Huh? Is that so? That's understandable..."

"Okay! Let's clear up the misunderstanding. You guys are going to stay here tonight, right? I'll treat you all. Just treat it as a friend... Boss, open two big rooms." The researcher said.

"Eh? Two rooms?" Guan Liyuan asked in confusion.

"The rooms here are all Japanese-style empty rooms. There are nothing else in the rooms except tatami and bedding. We can live together, right?"

Indeed, it's not much better than camping...

Then Guan Liyuan, Xiaoxia, and the other three introduced each other.

As expected, two of the boys of similar age were Xiaozhi and Xiaogang, and the four-eyed researcher was named Nika, claiming to be a researcher at the Nibi City Fossil Museum.

It is said that he came to the core area of ​​Yuejian Mountain to investigate some things about Pipi. Tomorrow, he will ask Xiaozhi and Xiaogang to protect and assist him in the investigation...

[Appeared! The researcher really appeared... and behaved very suspiciously! With a recommendation letter from the Nibi City Fossil Museum, you can enter the core area of ​​Mt. Tsukimi, but there are no Pokémon? And they hired two obviously useless rookies! 】 Guan Liyuan didn't know where to start complaining. Xiaoxia

looked at Xiaogang, who seemed very scared, with a look of disgust and said, "Actually, there is a Pokémon Center one kilometer to the west. If you are so scared..."

"Xiaozhi, Researcher Nika! Let's go..." Xiaogang spoke immediately after hearing this.

However, Xiaozhi refused: "No... I just want to take a shower and sleep after walking all day."

Guan Liyuan whispered to Xiaoxia: "Why did you say 'west' but pointed to the east?"

"..."
