He knows Pokémon better than me.

The next day, Ash went directly to the Pokémon Center and tried to register his Entei for a ride.

Since there is an upper limit on the number of Pokémon that a trainer can carry, the official inspection is quite strict, and there will be special personnel to check whether the registered Pokémon are qualified to be used as mounts.

And what kind of riding skills you are good at, and what kind of riding you can do.

If the person registering is a Pikachu or something like that, he will be directly rejected.

"I wonder if they have investigated Emperor Yan?"

Xiaozhi felt a little bit evil in his heart.

Normally, we check Kentaro and the long-haired dog. If a Entei suddenly comes out, it will probably scare all the experts!
However, the Pokémon Ride is currently only being tested in the Alola region, and the inspectors are all in the Alola region. If it is to be inspected in the Kanto region, it will probably take ten days or half a month.
So Xiaozhi temporarily teleported Entei over to facilitate the inspection and registration.

“Beep! So this is how it works.”

Rotom also noted it down in amazement. The principle of the riding device being able to even release free-range Pokémon was actually quite simple.

A specific communication device is placed on the Pokémon. When the trainer starts the Pokémon ride, the communication device will remind the mount partner to go to the nearest transmission device for transmission.

Officials will also install private charging stations with convenient transmission devices in the backyards of the free-range animals, so that even Pokémon can respond to the transmission and enter the riding device by themselves.

Of course, if the transmission is over long distances, there will generally be a delay of several seconds.

Xiaozhi nodded. He had already made an appointment at the Pokémon Center. Someone would come to Kukui's house tomorrow to install the teleportation charging station.

Of course, a charging station will be installed in Dr. Oak’s backyard for easy use.

"Then I can show it off in the next cycling class~!"

Xiaozhi wants to introduce his Pokémon to Kage and others!
There were no classes in school that afternoon.

The sun was shining hotly on the beach without any shelter, and a layer of white mist could be faintly seen floating on the ground.

But it's not a big problem. Xiaozhi is sitting leisurely on the steps of the wooden house eating watermelon, while Pokémon such as Rooster, Rowlet, and Eevee are playing games beside him.

“Meow~!”

Even the Litten came and jumped directly onto the wooden shelf next to it, curling up its body and preparing to take an afternoon nap.

Although Xiaozhi has not officially captured Litten yet, the latter often comes to Kukui's cabin on weekdays and they have a good relationship.

So Xiaozhi looked around and found that he was about to put together a team of "Cat, Dog, Rat, Bird" plus an Eevee.

“You have to keep exercising.”

Currently, they are all in the elementary baby form, and it may be difficult to fight against an expert.

Just as I was thinking this, two figures suddenly walked over from the distance on the beach.

Xiaozhi was stunned. It was neither Man Yue nor Dr. Kukui. This small beach was usually visited by few outsiders, because there was a more popular and vast beach over the Ten Carat Hill, near the city of Haole.

Tourists usually choose to visit that side.

It wasn't until the people came closer that Xiaozhi realized they were a combination of a human and a Pokémon.

The one on the left is a blond boy, about the same age and height as him, with short flowing blond hair hanging down in front of his forehead, covering half of his face, looking quite childish?
He has fair skin and is quite handsome, but his facial expression appears particularly serious and cold.

Dressed in all black, he looks like a rock guitarist in a band.

However, the Pokémon next to the opponent attracted Xiaozhi's attention more——

This is a werewolf-like Pokémon that walks upright. It is a head taller than the blond boy. Its hair is gray and red, and the hair on its back rebelliously flips up and falls in front of its forehead.

With sharp claws on its limbs and bloodshot eyes, it's not a docile Pokémon at first glance. "Beep! It's the night form of Lycanroc, the evolved form of Lycanroc~!"

Next to him, Rotom immediately broadcast the report.

It can be said that the image and temperament of the Rock Dog that has evolved into the night form are completely opposite.

"Is this the evolution of Rock Dog? Pretty cool."

Xiaozhi, on the other hand, held the back of his head and leaned back, holding a slice of watermelon in his other hand, and spoke leisurely.

Not to mention, his appearance and temperament are a bit like his Zoroark?
The man and the wolf seemed to be walking towards them.

Are you here to see Dr. Kukui?

After a while, the blond boy walked straight to the front of the wooden house and his cold eyes fell on Xiaozhi.

Especially when he saw Xiaozhi wearing a sweatshirt and shorts, eating watermelon leisurely, with a few watermelon seeds stuck in the corners of his mouth, he frowned.

"Oh Alola~ Are you here to see Professor Kukui? He's not home!"

Xiaozhi wiped the juice from his palms, stood up and said enthusiastically.

The other party shook his head, his eyes fixed directly on Xiaozhi and Pikachu who was sleeping soundly beside him.
Well, this should be the person.

"I'm not here to see Professor Kukui, I'm here to see you, Satoshi from Pallet Town!"

Gladion's pupils shrank, and he was completely certain in his heart.

"Do you know me?"

Xiaozhi scratched his head. It looked like he was coming with great force. Was he here to seek revenge?

But he is unfamiliar with the Alola region. Could he be a foreign aid hired by Team Skull?

"Yan-ao!!"

The rock dog that had just been tamed even bared its teeth and started barking, but the fierce-looking night evolution form next to it made it dare not act rashly.

"My name is Gladion. I'm training with Pokémon to become stronger, so I'm looking for powerful trainers and Pokémon."

Gladion introduced himself seriously.

I'm not here to seek revenge, I'm just here to challenge you!
He had been training on other islands before, and recently happened to come to Melemele Island. The only big thing he heard on the island was that a trainer from outside the area with Pikachu became the new teacher at the Pokémon School.

Not only did he defeat the island guardian, Tapu Kokoro, on the first day of school, but he also easily won the championship in the subsequent full-strength celebration.

Now, Xiaozhi has an extremely outstanding reputation in Melemele Island.

"So it was you who defeated Tapu Kokoro head-on?"

Gladion couldn't help but look at Xiaozhi again. He looked like a complete country boy and he didn't see any signs of being powerful at all.

How is it possible to defeat Tapu Kokoro? !

"Fight me! I want to see the strength of the trainer who can defeat the guardian of the island!"

Gladion didn't waste any time. He shouted coldly and challenged Xiaozhi directly.

If you are really an expert
It should make me stronger faster! (End of this chapter)
