The scrolling is difficult to stop.
This is similar to a game.
Kashiwagi could see that Otsuka wanted to stop the rolling stone, but he couldn't do it for a while, so the two of them had to dodge the flying boulder like playing dodge ball.
Longlongshi did not attack him intentionally just now.
Seeing Otsuka trying his best to dodge the rolling stone, Kashiwagi really believed it.
At first, he was the only one dodging, but as the rolling speed of the rumble stone continued to accelerate, the situation became uncontrollable. The inertia reduced the independent operation space of the rumble stone to the minimum. As a trainer, Otsuka had to join Kashiwagi's. ranks.
"Tell Cocoa to pull it out more!"
"You make the rumble stone stop."
Faced with Otsuka's hoarse shouting, Kashiwagi ruthlessly rejected his proposal. At this moment, the power of the rolling must be at its highest, right? If you don't keep it together, you will have to jump to the street if you touch it.
"I--"
Boom!
Before he finished speaking, the Longlong Stone hit the barbed wire fence fiercely. The huge momentum caused it to be directly embedded in it and broke several wires.
The violent sound attracted more attention.
"Good opportunity! Iron Head!"
Kashiwagi shouted, and Kokodora, who had been lurking underground, emerged and bumped into the already half-dazzled Rumble Stone.
The barbed wire fence, which had been forced to stretch due to metal fatigue, exploded suddenly, and the rumble stones fell to the field, causing people to look up to the sky with circles in their eyes.
"It looks like I won." He announced the result of the game to Otsuka who was shaking with anger. He ran to the edge and squatted down to high-five Kokodora, "Ah! Victory!"
"Goo!"
Cocodola smiled with crooked eyebrows.
"Let me interview you. I have a weak ground attribute here, so why do I need to use rolling?" Kashiwagi looked at Otsuka curiously.
Otsuka said indignantly: "Who knew your Pokémon could dig holes! And it stayed underground all the time without coming up! How shameless!"
"No, can't you?"
"...One more round!"
Otsuka gritted his teeth and used the Poké Ball to take the Rumble Stone back, "I don't believe it!"
"Is there any energy left?"
Kashiwagi did not agree directly, but turned to ask Cocodola.
Having been in the ground almost the whole time, it was full of energy and naturally took on the challenge enthusiastically.
Otsuka cut Kashiwagi into pieces in his heart and swore that he had never seen such a shameless person.
How could there be no spare energy!
"Pangotha! Get ready to fight!"
He must win once, otherwise he will faint from anger here.
——
noon.
At the end of the three battles, Kokodora and Otsuka fought all the Pokémon. Some won and some lost. The loser fell asleep from exhaustion in the middle of the battle.
Kashiwagi looked at the countdown in the corner of his eye and found that it seemed to have shortened a little, probably less than half an hour.
Is it possible...
Can battle shorten the simulator loading time?
Three shows lasted almost half an hour!
This is great too!
It's just that Cocodola's physical strength is not enough to support it in playing more games, which is a pity.
But he is very happy to be able to shorten it. You must know that the simulator is his strong support!
For a while.
Kashiwagi's mood became even happier, and when he looked at Otsuka, he felt more pleasing to the eye.
"You really like rolling. Is this move so good?"
He said strangely that a total of three Pokémon, Dungeon, Rumblestone and Pangolin, all used rolling.
It's just that the control ability of Dunjia and Pangolin is stronger than that of Longlong Stone. They stopped when they told them to stop. Longlong Stone couldn't stop even if it wanted to, so it was picked up by Coco Dora.
"I want you to take care of——"
"Um?"
"...Because rolling to an advanced level can resist many moves."
"Oh? Real or fake?"
"Of course it's true! I saw it with my own eyes. Just rolling can ignore a whole bunch of moves like water guns, flames, etc. That kind of power is really powerful!"
Otsuka's face was full of admiration, like a fan of a certain celebrity, except that his fan was a powerful trainer.
"That's it."
Kashiwagi nodded and prepared to leave.
Before he understood the entire structure and important personnel of the dungeon, he did not plan to stay too long, whether it was to find something to eat or to treat Cocodora's injuries.
I offended too many people just now, and I might get tripped up.
However, not far after he walked out, Otsuka behind him looked confused and chased after him.
"etc!"
"What's wrong?" He tilted his head.
"The communication evolution you mentioned before... I want to know more about it in detail." Otsuka seemed to find it a bit difficult to speak, and he hesitated, "Hua, you can spend money to buy it."
Kashiwagi looked at his expression, thought about it and said, "I don't need the money, just treat me to a meal. I'll let you know when I treat you."
Although this person is a little brainless, he is not too annoying. He just learned Soshiro's PUA method and put it to good use.
Otherwise, this week will be a bit uncomfortable. Being independent all the time will easily aggravate the subconscious alienation and rejection around you, making it difficult to integrate into the larger environment and work in a low-key manner.
"Ah? Really?"
Otsuka was a little surprised, and quickly turned his head, "I'd better buy it, I don't want to owe you any favors."
"I'm too lazy to think about the price. Please or not, I'm leaving." Kashiwagi didn't want to argue with him anymore, bought a bottle of drink from the vending machine, and left without looking back.
Upon seeing this, Otsuka hurriedly chased after him, "I know there is a good shop nearby!"
"Go back to the ground and eat."
"Let me tell you what delicious food is on the ground..."
"That's a lot of nonsense. If I tell you to go back to the ground, go back to the ground."
The two gradually walked away.
The group of people who stayed in the venue looked at each other. Just now, the two of them were hating each other. Now they are chatting and going to eat. What's going on?
Return to the ground.
Kashiwagi first looked around for Narihiro and others, and after learning from a certain Quicksand team member that they had left long ago, he took Otsuka to the Pokémon Center near the Sand Team's station to take care of the sleeping Kokodora.
Afterwards, he took Otsuka to Qingyi Street and had lunch in a familiar shop.
This guy was resistant at first, hating this thing and that thing, but he soon started feasting, and it was obvious that he was very hungry.
While eating, Kashiwagi explained to him.
"Communication evolution is the phenomenon of using a specific machine to exchange each other's Pokémon. During the exchange, they evolve. You have been cultivating Pokémon for a long time, right? How come you don't even know about this?"
He was very surprised, "This should be the foundation among the foundations. It's the same as attribute restraint. You can know it just by asking. Didn't anyone tell you?"
Upon hearing this, Otsuka's originally excited expression suddenly turned gloomy, "...No."
"Well...have you ever gone to school?"
"...No, there's no need for this! So what if you go to school? Can you feed people? Can you defeat those who bully you?"
"So you are illiterate just like me." Otsuka's resistance did not bother Kashiwagi. "Is it because your family doesn't let you go to school?"
"What does this have to do with you!"
"It doesn't matter, I'm just asking. After all, I'm the only one in the family. Your father is also a member of the Quicksand Team? Captain?"
"...No, ordinary, and he has already 'retired'."
Otsuka's attitude changed from fierce to silent.
