I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

Page 37

Seeing that Mankey was asleep, Gary stopped letting Exeggutor attack and threw a Poké Ball at Mankey.

boom!

The Poké Ball hit Mankey, and it was successfully captured.

When you use a Pokémon while it's asleep, it won't resist much, just like when you capture it after losing battle. However, it's best to put it to sleep during battle, as this will make the wild Pokémon feel like it has lost and make it more obedient.

However, just as Shigeru walked over and picked up the Poké Ball, a sound came from his pocket.

"You have reached the limit for the number of Pokémon you can carry. Any additional Pokémon you capture will be automatically transferred to Professor Oak's lab."

The next second, the Poké Ball in Shigeru's hand vanished into thin air.

"Ah, I forgot that all my spirits are full."

Shigeru slapped his forehead, forgetting that he already had six Pokémon. If he continued to catch more, he would be teleported to Professor Oak's lab.

"Xiao Mao, should we send it to Yuhong City?" Nazie asked.

There are no teleportation machines in the wild; if you want to bring the monkey monster with you, you'll have to use a teleportation machine to bring it here.

"Okay, I'll call Grandpa first."

Gary nodded, but decided to call Professor Oak first, since he wasn't sure about the Mankey's temperament.

Shigeru took out his phone and dialed the number for Ooki's lab.

"Hey, Gary, I've received the Pokémon that was sent to me. What Pokémon did you catch?" Professor Oak asked as soon as he answered the phone.

Professor Oak is very concerned about his grandson. Everyone else has already sent back several Pokémon, but Gary has only sent back one Butterfree so far. Although it's a shiny Pokémon, there's really nothing worth observing about it.

When Professor Oak saw the Pokémon teleport, he thought it was one of the other two trainers, but it turned out to be Gary who teleported it.

Professor Oak wanted to see what kind of Pokémon it was, but Gary called him right away.

"It's not some rare spirit, it's a monkey monster. That monkey monster seems to have a bit of a temper, and it was worried it might cause trouble for you, Grandpa, so it called to let you know," Xiao Mao said.

"Brother Oak, you underestimate your grandpa. I used to be a trainer too. It's just a Mankey. Do you think I can't handle it?" Professor Oak said, dissatisfied.

“Since Grandpa has said so, then I was overthinking it,” Xiao Mao said.

Professor Oak didn't press the matter further, and instead asked, "Where are you traveling to now?"

"Heading to Yuhong City."

"Oh, Rainbow City, so how many badges have you obtained so far?"

Five badges.

"You've got five badges already! You're really fast. Little Orange and Little Yellow only have three badges." Professor Oak said with slight surprise.

"Of course! I'm going to become a Pokémon Master, collecting badges is a piece of cake for me," Gary said smugly.

"You're really not modest, kid. You should hurry up and go to Celadon City. You should probably start breeding this Mankey yourself first," Professor Oak said.

"Yes, Grandpa, take care of yourself. I'll call you again when we get to Yuhong City."

...!

Xiao Mao and Naza embark on their journey again.

The next morning, we finally arrived in Yuhong City.

The two arrived at the Pokémon Center in Celadon City and handed their Pokémon over to Nurse Joy for care.

Gary carried Exeggutor with him and headed to the Pokémon Switch.

Because he needs to breed Mankey, Gary plans to put Exeggutor at Professor Oak's lab.

Exeggutor has now been successfully cultivated; the only remaining issue is training. All that's needed is to develop a training plan for the Pokémon and have someone supervise their training.

The persuasion work with the coconut tree has also been completed.

Dial the number for Oki Research Institute.

"Brown, your Mankey has pretty good potential." When the call connected, Professor Oak knew that Brown was calling to transfer Pokémon. He had also tested Mankey and could see that its potential was not low.

"Yeah, I'm going for the elite route. I don't plan to train Pokémon with poor potential... Wait, why is Grandpa wearing sunglasses indoors?" As Gary was talking, he noticed that Professor Oak was wearing sunglasses, even though Professor Oak doesn't usually wear sunglasses.

"Cough cough, it's nothing, I just have conjunctivitis and I'm afraid of infecting you," Professor Oak explained casually.

Xiaomao:? ? ?

Pink eye... It is indeed contagious, but can it be transmitted through a screen?

"Grandpa, please teleport the monkey monster over here," Xiao Mao said.

"Okay," Professor Oak said without further ado, placing the Poké Ball on his teleporter and pressing the teleport switch.

"Exeggutor, you must listen to Grandpa. You also need to supervise Grandpa's sleep from now on." Gary placed the Poké Ball on the slot.

Professor Oak: ? ? ?

One Butterfree wasn't enough to keep watch, so they also sent an Exeggutor.

Grandson, I still sleep very well.

After obtaining the monkey monster, Shigeru went to the common area and released it.

"grumble!"

When the monkey saw that it was Shigeru, it immediately climbed onto Shigeru's shoulder, as it greatly respected Shigeru as its trainer.

When they came out of the Poké Ball and saw it was Professor Oak, they immediately beat him up. If Butterfree hadn't been watching, Professor Oak wouldn't have just been wearing sunglasses.

"How was your day at my grandpa's?" Xiao Mao asked.

"grumble."

The monkey monster thought it was pretty good; it beat someone up to vent its anger, and then had a nice, peaceful sleep.

"It seems you get along very well with my grandfather."

Xiao Mao couldn't understand what the monkey monster was saying, but seeing that the monkey monster was very happy, they must be getting along very well.

"grumble!"

The monkey monster smiled and nodded, reflecting its optimistic attitude.

"By the way, I haven't checked your specific attributes yet." Xiao Mao wanted to see them from the start, but he was teleported away as soon as he was captured.

Chapter 53: Jade Rainbow City, the "Shamate" Teenager!

"grumble?"

The monkey monster looked puzzled. It was a fighting type, so what other type could it be?

Xiao Mao didn't stop there; he used his Eye of Insight to check the monkey monster's attributes.

【Elf: Monkey Monster♂】

[Attribute: Fighting]

【Level: 25】

[Potential: Quasi-King].

【Characteristic: Unyielding (When an opponent reduces a character's stats, Attack stat increases significantly.)】

[Skills: Grab, Random Grab, Charge, Kick Down, Earth Throw, Cross Slash.]

【Intimacy Level: 150 (Maximum 255)】

"Huh? What about a million-ton kick?"

After looking at the monkey monster's data, Xiao Mao was puzzled as to why it didn't have a million-ton kick.

Xiao Shigeru could understand why he didn't cause a big scene, since this skill requires the monkey monster to be level 29 to master, and he's only level 25 at the moment, so it's normal that he doesn't know it yet. But why doesn't he know the Mega Kick?

It's impossible that this monkey-dog learned the million-ton kick in the future. Could it be that the monkey monster has a high talent for martial arts?

"Is it Ash's?"

Gary is now starting to doubt whether the Mankey in front of him is Ash's, since Gary deduced that it has the potential to be an Elite Four member, while the Mankey in front of him only has the potential to be a near-Elite Four member.

Ash should have already arrived in Vermilion City. After that, he will head to Goldenrod City, and then Celadon City. It shouldn't take more than two months.

It's highly unlikely that a wild monkey monster could master a million-ton kick in just over a month without guidance from a master.

"do not care."

Xiao Mao didn't think too much about it. Even if he caught the wrong one, it didn't matter. A monkey with the potential to become a near-Elite Four member was already pretty good. Why would he need a luxury car?

"Monkey monster, do you want to learn a skill?" Xiao Mao stroked the monkey monster's furry head.

"grumble!"

The monkey monster nodded frantically. Being able to learn skills was naturally a good thing. Fighting-type monsters loved learning skills, especially those related to fists and feet.

"Let's learn this first."

Xiao Mao handed the million-ton kick to the monkey monster.

"grumble!"

The monkey monster immediately felt that it had mastered a new skill, and the feeling was exactly the same as when it awakened a skill. It looked at Xiao Mao in surprise.

The monkey monster thought that learning required diligent study, not like awakening racial skills where you suddenly learn them.

"Hehe, let me teach you another skill." Xiao Mao smiled and then taught the monkey monster the Sharp Stone Attack skill as well.

"grumble!!"

The monkey monster was shocked; it had mastered another skill, a Rock-type skill with tremendous power.

"You seem to really enjoy training, so I'll create a training plan for you tomorrow. You should definitely take it in," Xiao Mao said.

"grumble!"

The monkey monster nodded. It was a Fighting-type Pokémon that loved training, especially having experienced the feeling of instantly mastering skills.

I, the Monkey Monster, am sticking with you!

in the afternoon.

Gary retrieved his Pokémon from Nurse Joy and continued his afternoon training.
