Pokémon Modifier

There are two roads from Yinyu City to Fuyan Town. The first one goes directly west across the mountainous forest between the two cities.

As for the second route, you need to start south first and make a circle from Zijin City.

Most trainers traveling abroad will prefer the latter when faced with this choice, because there are a large number of wild Pokémon living on the first road, many of which are more dangerous.

But for Populus euphratica and Axiodon, this is a rare and good opportunity for experience.

So after looking at the map, he gave the command to the fire-breathing dragon to continue flying west.

As a result, on the way, a heavy rain suddenly began in the sky.

The rain was coming fiercely. One second it was sunny, but the next second it became gloomy. The massive rainstorm turned Charizard and Populus euphratica into two drowned rats.

Populus euphratica: "..."

As expected of Inyu City, which is famous for its frequent heavy rains.

Populus euphratica quickly made the fire-breathing dragon make an emergency landing. There happened to be a conspicuous cave nearby, and one man and one dragon hurriedly hid in it.

As a result, it was discovered that several trainers with Pokémon had gathered in this cave.

They were not surprised to see Hu Yang coming, and a few of them nodded to him in a friendly manner.

It was raining heavily outside and there was no way to continue on the way, so Populus euphratica found a corner in the cave and used the flames on the fire-breathing dragon's tail to roast his wet clothes and hair.

Charizard held its tail in front of its body with its claws and fixed it, so that Populus euphratica could dry the clothes more conveniently.

Hu Yang felt very happy to have such a well-behaved and sensible guy by his side, so he reached out and touched Charizard's lowered head.

At this time, the brown-haired boy next to him walked to the cave, looked at the gloomy sky outside, and said solemnly: "The weather in this place is so strange."

"This is already the fifth heavy rain in two hours, right? I don't know what kind of weather will happen next..."

Hu Yang, who had just arrived here, was stunned for a moment, and a question mark appeared on his head.

As a result, the next second, he saw the heavy rain outside suddenly stop, and then hailstones of different sizes fell from the sky.

Hu Yang:?

Is there a trainer around here who lets Pokémon practice weather-changing moves?

"Hail...it's going to be snowing next, right?" A young girl trainer holding Xiangwei Miao sighed upon seeing this.

As soon as she finished speaking, the weather outside changed again.

The hailstones that could smash people's heads into pieces disappeared and were replaced by white snowflakes.

Populus euphratica: "..."

So some trainer is really having Pokémon practice weather-changing moves around here, right?

A group of people were trapped here by this weird weather. The rain, snow and hail outside did not stop until Populus euphratica dried their clothes that were soaked by the rain.

Just before noon, there was a sudden sound of vehicles driving in the heavy rain outside.

Then, a van pulled up outside the cave.

A young man in a white coat got out of the driver's seat, with a Pokémon that looked like water droplets and bubbles floating on his shoulder.

"Sorry!" the young man said with a hint of apology on his face.

Hearing this, all the trainers looked at each other with confused expressions on their faces.

Seeing this, the young man took the initiative to introduce himself and explained the reason for the weather: "I am Balu, the director of the nearby weather institute. These weathers are caused by the research of our institute!"

"I'm really sorry for causing you so much trouble!" The young man who called himself Balu apologized.

He paused, looked at everyone, and invited: "If you can, please come to our research institute to take a rest!"

For example, change out of wet clothes, take a shower, have lunch, etc.

"That'll be troublesome!" The trainers trapped here accepted the invitation.

Hu Yang thought for a while and agreed.

If he remembered correctly, this weather institute is also a very important location in the game.

After taking back the Pokémon balls around them, the group got into the car.

Balu was responsible for driving in front, and the floating bubble on his shoulder looked back at everyone curiously.

The girl holding Xiangwei Miao was puzzled: "Mr. Balu, how did you find out that we were trapped here?"

Balu glanced at the rearview mirror and explained: "I saw your figures from the monitoring equipment in the institute, so I rushed over immediately."

The weather research institute was not too far from the cave, so everyone quickly arrived in front of a large building.

Above this facility stands a machine that looks like a huge satellite, which looks very eye-catching.

As soon as they got off the bus, a group of trainers couldn't help but look up at the large machine.

Balu followed their gazes and explained with a smile: "That is the weather control machine developed by our research institute. It stores data-like temperature and weather patterns and can control the weather in the Hoenn area.

"But it's still in the experimental stage, and some equipment is still unstable, so you just encountered that bad situation. But don't worry, our researchers have repaired it and ensure that it won't happen again. That’s what happened just now.”

Suddenly, the group of people officially entered the Weather Research Institute under the leadership of Balu.

Many researchers in the institute feel sorry for the trouble caused to this group of trainers.

As compensation, they provided food and hot water to this group of trainers to rest.

Hu Yang took out clean clothes from his backpack, went to the room prepared by Balu and took a hot bath.

When he came out, he suddenly heard an alarm sound coming from outside.

Hu Yang paused, quickly dried his hair, and came to the research room with other trainers.

"Mr. Balu, what happened?" a trainer asked.

Balu was looking for something on the computer with a solemn expression. The researcher in a white coat next to him looked a little anxious:

"Someone knocked out our researchers and stole our research materials from the computer room!"

At this time, the computer screen in front of Balu flashed, and then a human face appeared on it.

"Director Balu, our marine team has accepted your research materials! Thank you very much, goodbye!"

After saying that, the screen went black.

"Team Ocean...it's them!" Balu frowned.

"Mr. Balu, what kind of research data is that?" a trainer asked.

Hu Yang: "..." There are actually people who directly ask for confidential information that others have researched.

Hu Yang was speechless.

But regarding this issue, Balu did not hide it, but said solemnly: "It is information about the two ultra-ancient Pokémon in the Hoenn region."

Over the years, the weather research institute established here has been monitoring the weather in various places in Hoenn, in addition to researching equipment that can control the weather.

According to their investigation, strange and abnormal weather will occur on certain roads in the Hoenn region at certain times.

For example, sometimes, it is obviously raining in that area, but a small part of it is sunny.

Another example is that it is clearly sunny above the sea, but part of it is raining.

After initial confusion and exploration, they speculated based on ancient legends circulating in the Hoenn region that the cause of this abnormal weather was likely to be related to the two ultra-ancient Pokémon.

But this is just speculation.

The frequency of these unusual weather patterns varied from place to place, and it took them decades to find any clues.

But now, it has been snatched away by the Ocean Team.

"But fortunately the information is not complete yet." Thinking of this, Balu felt a little lucky again.

In this way, even if they get the information, they won't be able to find the locations of Kyogre and Groudon.

Hearing these contents, Hu Yang was a little confused.

This plot...why is it advanced?

…

Shuijing City, Marine Team Base.

Shui Wutong exposed her dark, muscular chest and listened to the reports from her subordinates on the communicator:

"Report to the boss, we have successfully obtained Kyogre's information from the Weather Research Institute!"

Shui Wutong said with satisfaction: "Very good!"

Members of the Ocean Team spread across Hoenn to investigate Kyogre's information.

About a week ago, Shui Wutong received a report from one of his subordinates.

The report said that they met Champion Daigo while investigating Kyogre, and the other party seemed to be investigating the two ultra-ancient Pokémon.

The clever subordinates thought that as a champion, Dawu might have some ways that they didn't know about, so they followed Dawu secretly.

As a result, they actually found some ruins that had not been discovered before, and those ruins also recorded information about Kyogre and Groudon.

Thinking of this, Shui Wutong showed an excited smile on his face.

His great ideal has finally taken another step forward!

At this time, the subordinate hesitated and said: "It's just that the information on it is incomplete, and the researchers at the Weather Research Institute are not sure whether Kyogre is the cause of these abnormal weather."

Hearing this, Shui Wutong frowned. He thought for a moment and said simply: "Then first find a few people to pay attention to the movements at the Weather Research Institute."

Maybe they will be able to make new discoveries over time.

"yes!"

Shui Wutong nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good. Other plans in Yinyu City are temporarily cancelled. Let the members operating near Wudou Town, Chenghua City and Karnaz City gather in Kaina City! Let's gather in Kaina City! Let’s go visit that guy in Kusnogi.”

Kusnogy, director of the Museum of Marine Science in Kaina City, is also the owner of the Kusnogy Shipyard.

Shui Wutong recently heard that he had ordered the design drawings of a submarine named "Haiyuan 1" from Dewen Company, which can dive into the deep sea area.

If they have that design drawing, then they can build Haiyuan 1 and enter the vast sea to find traces of Kyogre.

"receive!"

…

Three days later, at the entrance of Chenghua Forest.

Here Yushu met an old man whose Pokémon was captured by Team Ocean's men.

The old man's name was Hutch. According to him, the Marine Team's men wanted him to drive a ship to take them to Kaina City. After he refused, they captured the long-winged gull named Xiaopi in revenge.

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring Xiaopi back to you!" the young man promised.

…

Chimney Hill.

A gentle-looking man wearing glasses looked calmly at the silent volcano.

"Report to the boss! The Ocean Team is gathering towards Kaina City!" a member of the Lava Team reported.

The man known as the boss narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this. After a long time, he pushed up his glasses with his hand and said calmly: "I know, in this case, we should start taking action."

If this volcano is allowed to erupt, then the ultra-ancient Pokémon that can only create land must be able to feel it, right?

But at this moment, a group of people in blue uniforms surged up from the bottom of the mountain.

Shui Wutong, who was wearing the iconic headscarf of the Marine Team, looked at the man who was so calm that he looked a little nervous, grinned, and said:

"Hey! Isn't this bad?"

If the volcano erupts forcibly, the natural balance will inevitably be broken and tilt towards the side that the Ocean Team does not want to see.

From Shui Wutong's point of view, it would be better for this volcano to become completely silent, because in this way, the balance of nature will tilt towards Kyogre, the god of the ocean.

Hearing this, Chi Yansong turned around calmly and looked at the person.

Shui Wutong looked into his eyes and reminded: "If this volcano is activated and erupts, the ecology near Chimney Mountain and the Pokémon living here will suffer!"

Chi Yansong looked at him coldly and said nothing, but said calmly: "In order to achieve that ideal, these sacrifices are necessary. After the incident is over, I will create a better world for them."

A bigger, broader world.

Hearing this, Shui Wutong showed a cheerful smile on his face, and sighed with a grin: "We are really not suitable to live in the same world!"

Chi Yansong was noncommittal.

Shui Wutong put away his smile and said: "In that case, let us fight for the ownership of this volcano!"

Chi Yansong said nothing.

He calmly took out a red and white ball from his pocket.

The war is about to break out.

…

In the vast mountain forest to the west of the Weather Research Institute.

Populus euphratica continued to shuttle through the dense forest with Axetooth, looking for powerful wild Pokémon for special training.

As he expected, this area was home to a large number of wild Pokémon.

Always facing north, stand motionless on the ground with your nose pointing north,

Wearing Iron Kai, the huge Boss Cordora,

The thunder beast that carries lightning on its body and shuttles through the mountains and forests,

Like a hunter, Mongoose Zhan hides in the grass.

After commanding the Ax-tooth Dragon to defeat a mongoose, Hu Yang took out the moo milk to replenish physical strength and energy and handed it to the Ax-tooth Dragon and said: "Take a rest!"

"Nah."

The axe-toothed dragon took it obediently, started pouring the milk into his mouth.

The wild meerkat next to it, which had lost the ability to fight, moved its nose while watching this scene, as if sniffing the sweet smell in the air.

Seeing this, Populus euphratica released Charizard, let Charizard help it recover its strength, and then gave it a bottle of Moo Milk.

Holding Moo Milk in his arms, Mongoose Zhan looked at Populus euphratica, then turned around, and quickly disappeared into the forest.

Hu Yang took out a wet wipe and helped Axetooth wipe away the dirt and dust on his body from the battle.

Two full days have passed since he arrived at this place.

In the past two days, the strength of Axetooth Dragon has improved a lot compared to before.

But it still hasn't evolved.

Populus euphratica is a little helpless, but evolution cannot be forced.

Next, he was going to leave this place, find a town to rest, and then go to Fuyan Town to play the gym.

Because he and the Axiodon had been crawling around in the wild for two days, and his body had become dirty.

Hu Yang wanted to take a hot bath and make herself cleaner.
