Wild Area.
A great place for new Trainers in the Kanto region to add to their Pokémon roster.
This area has a large number of wild Pokémon, and Trainers can go to the Wild Area manager to receive special Wild Area Poké Balls.
Here, one can briefly enjoy the feeling of being a "One-Ball Master."
No need to battle, you can capture them just by throwing the ball.
Of course, there is a limit to the quantity.
Each Trainer is limited to receiving thirty Wild Area Poké Balls.
Thirty balls mean thirty capture opportunities.
These rules are all to protect the ecology of the Wild Area and the wild Pokémon.
Before this area was regulated, I don't know who started the rumor that there were Dratini here.
They said this was a sacred place.
As a result, a large number of Trainers swarmed in, capturing and battling without restraint, destroying the ecological environment here completely.
Later, it was only after the League and the government joined forces that this area was temporarily regulated.
However, so many years have passed.
No one has actually seen a Dratini here.
The legendary color of this area has greatly diminished, and it has slowly become a place for newcomers to add to their Pokémon.
Roy collected his thoughts and his gaze fell on Delia.
The task of assisting Delia in capturing Pokémon had one last Pokémon remaining.
It just so happened that the Wild Area was the most suitable place.
"Delia." Roy looked at Delia and asked with a smile.
"There are so many Pokémon in this Wild Area, is there any you want to capture?"
Delia heard this and also looked over.
Her gaze followed those few running Tauros, watching their muscular bodies and rampaging appearance.
She also looked at those few Dodrio, their three heads turning independently, kicking up dust as they ran.
Delia shrank her neck and said somewhat embarrassedly.
"It feels... the Pokémon in this Wild Area are all so wild."
"I might not be able to handle them."
She paused and added.
"But if there are any as obedient and cute as Eevee and Gloom, I could capture one."
As she spoke, Delia lowered her head to look at the Gloom and Eevee by her feet.
Although Delia didn't usually let her Pokémon battle, the Oddish had always been following in Roy's team, leeching experience.
After leeching, it actually reached level 28 and evolved into a Gloom.
A small blue-purple body with a huge flower bud on its head, swaying as it walked.
Although it wasn't as cute as Oddish after evolution, under Delia's gentle care, this Gloom was exceptionally docile.
It was incredibly well-behaved.
And just as Janine said, an obedient Gloom has no smell at all.
Not only is it not smelly, but it also carries a faint floral fragrance.
Gloom was squatting at Delia's feet, happily shaking its head.
And what about Eevee?
It was bouncing on the grass chasing a Butterfree, looking incredibly energetic.
Roy looked at the Eevee bouncing happily on the ground, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
"I know Gloom is obedient."
"As for Eevee..."
Roy intentionally dragged out his tone, his voice full of doubt.
"Is it really obedient too?"
As soon as the words fell.
The Eevee on the ground immediately perked up its ears.
It turned its head sharply, its brown eyes full of defiance.
Eevee: ???
It understood!
This detestable Pikachu Trainer was badmouthing it again!
Eevee didn't say a word, turned its head, and rushed towards Roy's pant leg.
Bite!
Bit down hard!
"Hey, hey, hey! Again?"
Roy looked down at the Eevee hanging on his pant leg, unable to laugh or cry.
Eevee bit the pant leg without letting go, making "woo-woo-woo" sounds in its throat, expressing strong protest.
Detestable Pikachu Trainer!
If I had known, I should have bitten your pant leg hard back then and not let you enter the master's bedroom!
"Pika Pika!"
Pikachu on the side hurriedly ran over, grabbed Eevee with its paws, and dragged it backward.
Pikachu dragged it while soothing Eevee.
"Pika Pika ~ Chu ~"
(Alright, alright, the master is joking, don't be angry ~)
Eevee was dragged by Pikachu, its four paws scratching four shallow drag marks on the ground, but its mouth still didn't show any intention of letting go.
Pikachu leaned into Eevee's ear and whispered a few "Pika Pika"s.
No one knew what it said.
Eevee's ears moved, and the strength in its mouth loosened a bit.
Then slowly, it let go of Roy's pant leg.
Eevee looked up at Pikachu, then turned to glare at Roy, huffed, and walked away with its tail up.
After walking two steps, it turned back and bit the air at Roy's pant leg, as if to say — If you talk nonsense next time, I'll really Bite you!
Then it hopped away to play on the side with Pikachu.
The two little guys were chasing and playing on the grass, rolling into a ball.
Delia watched this scene and smiled gently.
Her smile was like the spring breeze, warm.
"Eevee is also very obedient."
Delia's voice was soft.
"I like it very much."
The look in her eyes when she looked at Eevee was full of love.
Roy looked down at the row of small tooth marks on his pant leg, then looked at Delia's gentle smile, and shook his head helplessly with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes, obedient, obedient, very obedient."
"But seriously."
Roy's gaze swept across the vast Wild Area in front of him.
"In such a big Wild Area, there must be a Pokémon you like."
"I'll help you find it when the time comes."
Delia's eyes lit up when she heard this.
A faint blush appeared on her face, and the smile on the corners of her mouth deepened.
"Really? Then thank you so much, Roy."
Delia looked at Roy, the tenderness in her eyes almost overflowing.
Roy felt a bit embarrassed by her gaze and scratched his head.
"What's there to thank, I already promised anyway."
Delia nodded, the light in her eyes undiminished.
She felt sweet in her heart, extremely happy.
Roy said he would help her find a Pokémon.
Roy always remembered the things he promised her.
This feeling is really good.
Misty stood on the side, watching the two of them talking, and finally couldn't help but interject.
"Does this need looking for?"
Misty put her hands on her hips, looking confident.
"Just go to the water!"
"The Pokémon in the water, those that are cute, beautiful, obedient, and smart..."
Misty counted the advantages with her fingers, getting more excited as she spoke.
But she suddenly paused, her expression changed slightly, and she hurriedly added.
"Except for Gyarados!"
"Except for Psyduck too!"
As soon as the words fell.
A poké ball hanging on Misty's waist moved.
Psyduck: Ga?
What do you mean?
It seems like someone is calling me?
Misty looked down, pressed the Psyduck's poké ball with a dark face.
"I didn't call you! Don't come out!"
She patted the poké ball, confirmed that Psyduck was quiet, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Roy looked at her like this, and the smile on his lips grew stronger.
"Last time at the Fuchsia Gym, didn't Psyduck show its power?"
Roy deliberately poked her weak point.
"You still dislike it?"
When Misty heard this, the expression on her face couldn't be more complicated.
She sighed deeply, her voice full of melancholy.
"Don't mention it..."
"Since that time, it has never successfully used Confusion again."
"Not even once."
Misty said, her expression as if she were recounting some painful memory.
"When we were at the Reserve earlier, I told it to help me guard the side and not let bugs near me."
"Guess what it did?"
Roy raised an eyebrow.
"What did it do?"
"It pondered for a long time, then ran out with a confident face."
Misty's mouth twitched.
"After a while, it came back."
"It brought a Caterpie."
"Fortunately, Eevee reacted quickly and knocked the Caterpie away with its tail!"
"Otherwise, I would have petrified on the spot!"
As she said this, Misty looked gratefully at Eevee who was playing with Pikachu.
"Eevee, thank you!"
Eevee heard someone calling it, stopped playing with Pikachu, and tilted its head to look at Misty.
"Bui?"
"When we get to the next city, I'll buy you something delicious!"
Misty held up a finger and promised solemnly.
"Anything you want to eat!"
Eevee's eyes lit up immediately.
It jumped up happily, its four little paws bounced several times on the grass, and then it rushed to Misty's feet and rubbed against her.
"Bui-bui~!"
(Sister Misty is the best!)
Then it ran back to play with Pikachu.
The two little guys rolled into a ball on the grass, chasing each other, playing happily.
Pikachu was tackled to the ground by Eevee, making "Pika Pika" sounds of laughter.
Eevee lay on top of Pikachu, shaking its tail triumphantly.
The sunlight shone on them, and their fur was glowing.
Delia looked at them, her eyes full of affection.
"Eevee and Pikachu get along really well now."
"Isn't that so."
Misty crossed her arms and nodded with satisfaction.
"Much better than with some people."
As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Roy.
Roy's pant leg still had tooth marks.
"Hey, hey, hey, is someone being insinuating?"
Misty stuck her tongue out at him and made a face.
The three of them walked along, chatting and laughing.
The wind on the prairie blew over, carrying the smell of soil and grass.
The sun shone warmly on the few of them.
A few wild Rattata poked their heads out of the grass, saw someone passing by, and then swished back in.
In the distance, the herd of Tauros was still running, their hooves sounding like thunder.
Everything was so leisurely, so free.
After walking for about half an hour.
The three came to a building.
This was a large courtyard in a western cowboy style, with wooden fences, red-tiled roofs, and a large wooden sign hanging at the entrance.
It said — Wild Area Management Office.
Some hay was piled in the corner of the courtyard, and a few hitching posts stood beside it, which really had a bit of a western movie feel.
Just as he stepped into the courtyard, a familiar electronic prompt sounded in Roy's mind.
[Ding! Triggered mission: Great Wild Area Capture!]
[Mission content: For every Pokémon captured in the Wild Area, you can get a rare candy reward!]
[Level classification: Capture a Pokémon under level 30 to get one Basic Rare Candy! Capture a Pokémon over level 30 to get one intermediate rare candy!]
[Special reward: Capture the Dratini / Dragonair / Dragonite species, you can get a Top-tier Dragon Scale — special evolution item, providing an additional 10% increase in Dragon-type skill power!]
Roy looked at the mission panel floating in his mind.
The corners of his mouth curled up bit by bit, and the smile couldn't be stopped.
The Wild Area is the same as the previous Reserve, you can't level up, you can't battle, and the team level will stay here for a long time.
He was just worrying about this.
As a result, the system sent benefits directly.
Thirty Wild Area Poké Balls.
That's equivalent to thirty capture opportunities.
Even if only half are captured, that's a dozen rare candies!
Although Basic Rare Candy has a general effect, it can't handle the large quantity!
Not to mention the intermediate rare candy for over level 30!
Roy calculated quickly in his heart.
There are quite a few wild Pokémon over level 30 in this Wild Area.
The leading ones of that group of running Tauros outside definitely have over level 30!
And those Dodrio, Rhyhorn, Kangaskhan...
If you are lucky enough to encounter a few high-level Pokémon, one wave of intermediate rare candy will be credited, and the level of the entire team can jump up a notch!
And...
Roy's gaze fell back on that special reward.
Top-tier Dragon Scale.
Special evolution item.
Provides an additional 10% increase in Dragon-type skill power!
Dragon-type skills are already strong, and increasing the power by another 10%, that output is simply explosive!
The shadow of his Shinny Horsea flashed through his mind instantly.
Seadra evolving into Kingdra happens to need a Dragon Scale!
And Kingdra is a Water and Dragon type, coupled with this Top-tier Dragon Scale, 10% Dragon-type skill power increase...
That scene is too beautiful to imagine!
However...
Roy suppressed the excitement in his heart and analyzed it calmly.
Capturing other Pokémon is fine.
Thirty Wild Area Poké Balls, just throw them, and be a "One-Ball Master" once.
If you hit it, you earn it, and if you don't hit it, you don't lose it.
But this Dratini...
It is indeed a bit hard to find.
The Wild Area is too big.
Grasslands, forests, mountains, rivers, lakes...
There are all kinds of terrains, and the area is ridiculously large.
Moreover, when the League blocked the news back then, they deliberately suppressed the rumors of Dratini.
After so many years, most people took this as a rumor.
But Roy knows.
In this Wild Area.
There really are dragons.
And it's a pair of top-tier mother and daughter dragons!
A Dratini, a Dragonair!
Mother and daughter dragons!
If this can be captured together...
Roy's heartbeat quickened a bit.
He took a deep breath to calm himself down.
He didn't remember the specific location very clearly.
Only roughly remembered it was in a pond in a big mountain.
There is a pool in the mountain, and there is a dragon in the pool.
In that kind of place, ordinary Trainers simply can't find it.
But he is different.
He has Aura.
Aura expanded, slowly exploring.
It's just a matter of time.
As long as it's found, two Wild Area Poké Balls thrown out...
Top-tier Dragon Scale in hand!
The evolution item for Kingdra is here!
The team's strength takes off directly!
The more Roy thought about it, the happier he became.
The smile on his face was almost reaching his ears.
