Pokémon Modifier

"Hey, why did you three sneak out again?"

The voice of the research assistant came from behind the three Gosanjia.

Not far away, Populus euphratica and Dr. Yamanashi, who were stroking Pachiriz's big fluffy tail, heard the sound and turned around to see three familiar Pokémon.

Seeing Dr. Yamanashi, the research assistant showed a sheepish smile, nodded to Dr. Yamanashi, and shouted: "Doctor."

Dr. Yamanashi cast his eyes on the three Pokémon and said in surprise: "The three of them..."

Research assistant: "I don't know the reason. I was treating them just now, and as soon as I took out the healing spray from the medical kit, they disappeared."

Hearing this, Dr. Yamanashi's mind flashed to the scene of the three Pokémon fighting in the living room just now.

He looked at the boy holding Pachlitz next to him and immediately understood what was happening.

Bogaman and the others regarded Hu Yang as a new trainer who came to the research institute to receive the initial Pokémon.

In this case...

Dr. Yamanashi looked at the boy beside him and asked with a smile: "Hu Yang, what do you think of these three children?"

Um?

Hu Yang, who was touching Pachilitz's little paw, didn't think much. He raised his head and glanced at the three Pokémon, and said casually: "They are all pretty good."

Of the three royal families in the Sinnoh region, to be honest, the one that impressed him the most was the Little Fire Monkey.

Because Xiaozhi's little fire monkey left a deep impression on him.

As for Bogaman and Kusanagi, they all have their own characteristics and are very cute compared to the three royal families in the Fengyuan area.

All in all, these three Pokémon are docile and willing to get close to people, making them very suitable for new trainers to train.

Dr. Yamanashi nodded gently and continued to ask: "So, are you interested in choosing one of the three of them to travel with?"

Hu Yang was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "You mean, you want to give me a Pokémon?"

Dr. Yamanashi hummed, nodded and said, "Of course, if you are willing."

Populus euphratica: "..."

As expected of Dr. Yamanashi, the precious Gosan family gave it away as it was told.

He held Pachlitz and looked up at the three Pokémon.

Sensing his gaze, Bogaman, Little Fire Monkey and Grass Turtle all became energetic and looked towards him with expectation.

Seeing this, Dr. Yamanashi walked up to them, stretched out his hand to look at the little fire monkey, and took the initiative to introduce:

"This Pokémon is a fire-type fire monkey with a very lively and cheerful personality."

The three Pokémon immediately realized that they had now entered the stage of selecting the initial Pokémon.

This means that the trainer has not chosen the blue and white squirrel to be his starting Pokémon!

For a moment, the three Pokémon were excited and all became energetic.

Hearing his name, the little fire monkey jumped twice on the spot and let out a lively cry: "Cackle, gurgle!"

Dr. Yamanashi continued to introduce with a smile on his face: "This Pokémon is a grass-type Turtle. Its character is very honest and steady. It is a very reliable and trustworthy guy!"

The grass seedling turtle did not jump up excitedly like the little fire monkey, but stayed in place and said happily: "Uh-huh~"

"As for this child..." Dr. Yamanashi walked towards the last Bogaman. He paused and said, "This is a water-type Bogaman. It... is also a very cute Pokémon!"

After hearing the words of praise for himself, Bogaman nodded his little head repeatedly, raised his little hand and waved to the opposite side: "Bogaboga!"

Hu Yang nodded.

After the introduction, Dr. Yamanashi looked up at Populus euphratica and asked, "So, have you decided which Pokémon you want to choose for your trip?"

Which one to pick...

Hearing this, Hu Yang turned his attention to the little fire monkey on the far left.

The little fire monkey has orange fur and looks very warm.

If you can hold it in your arms in winter, it will feel great.

Hu Yang was in a daze.

At this moment, he suddenly heard an extremely disappointed and sad cry: "Bojia..."

He turned his head and saw that Pogaman on the far right had a very human expression on his face, his head lowered, his small body showing a visible loss, and he looked like he was about to cry sadly.

"Uh..." Hu Yang blinked.

Although Bogaman's appearance is very similar to that of Penguin, it is still very different in some details.

For example, its body color is mainly light blue and dark blue, its eyes are surrounded by white, and it has a very small and cute yellow beak, as cute as a child.

Of course, the most attractive thing is the soft light blue fluff covering its body.

The fluff helps Pogaman withstand the cold in the winter.

Little Fire Monkey...Pogaman...

They all seem pretty good.

As for the grass seedling turtle in the middle, Populus euphratica took one look and already made a decision in his heart.

"I choose——"

Upon hearing this, Pogaman, who had his head drooped, secretly pricked up his ears.

"Pogaman."

Hearing this answer, both the little fire monkey and the grass seedling turtle felt a little regretful, but seeing that the trainer had already made his choice, they didn't say anything more.

On the other hand, Pogaman, who was hanging his head and pretending to be sad, raised his head instantly, and several rays of light called "excitement" shot out from his round blue eyes.

"Boga!"

But soon, it coughed lightly and stood there pretending to be calm, but its bright eyes betrayed it on the spot.

Seeing Bogaman's reaction, Dr. Yamanashi smiled and said: "This child likes you very much! Take out the elf ball and try to conquer it!"

Hearing this, Hu Yang put down Pachlitz, took out a Poke Ball from his pocket, walked up to Bogaman, and squatted down.

Bogaman raised his head, glanced at him, and then at the elf ball in front of him.

Then he jumped up happily and touched the button on the elf ball with his hand.

The next second, a beam of red light shot out and took Pogaman in.

The elf ball shook a few times, and then became completely quiet.

This means that the conquest was successful!

…

Hu Yang decided to temporarily stay at Dr. Yamanashi's research institute today.

After he conquered Bogaman, Dr. Yamanashi suddenly received a call. After some advice on Bogaman's character, he returned to the research institute with his research assistant.

If a new Pokémon is captured in the team, according to the normal procedure, other Pokémon in the team should be informed of its existence.

So, after Dr. Yamanashi left, Populus euphratica released Bogaman again.

Pogaman looked very happy after leaving the elf ball: "Poga Poga!"

"Hello, Bogaman, I am Hu Yang." Hu Yang introduced himself: "From now on, I will be your trainer."

Populus euphratica... Bogaman nodded his little head to show that he remembered the name. He said cheerfully: "Bogaboga~"

Probably because he was too happy, Pogaman ran happily on the grass.

However, before it had even taken a few steps, there was a snapping sound, and Bogaman fell flat on the ground and fell onto the grass.

This scene was very clumsy and funny, but Hu Yang did not laugh at Bogaman. He just said in his heart: "It seems that the description in the illustrated book is true."

Pokémon like Bogaman always fall down when walking. Perhaps for this reason, its self-esteem is stronger than other Pokémon.

This strong self-esteem allows Pogaman to stand tall in any situation.

Hu Yang probably understood the reason why those trainers kept holding Bogaman while walking.

At the same time, Pogaman, who fell on the grass, secretly glanced at his trainer's expression, and felt slightly relieved when he saw that he didn't laugh at him.

Then he stood up, and the expression on his face quickly returned to happiness.

Seeing this scene, Hu Yang smiled, reached out and touched Bogaman's head, and continued: "Next, I want to introduce you to some new companions."

Hearing this, Bogaman raised his head in confusion: "Bogaboga?"

What's the meaning? Isn't this human a new trainer who just went on a trip? Aren't you its first Pokémon?

But the human in front of him didn't answer it, but took out several Poké Balls on his own.

In the streaks of white light, Pogaman saw a scene that was enough to turn him to stone.

The figures of Ancient Moon Bird, Gengar, Double Ax Battle Dragon, Fire-breathing Dragon, Kati Dog, and Metal Monster appeared on the grass in front of them.

Hu Yang skillfully touched the Kati dog's head, hugged Charizard, and finally cuddled up against the metal monster.

He smiled and introduced to Bogaman: "This is Kati dog, this one here is Gengar, and this is Charizard. From now on, they will also travel with us."

Seeing Hu Yang's appearance that he was obviously familiar with that group of Pokémon, Bogaman looked shocked, with a dull expression on his face: "Bogaman..."

"Woof woof!"

Kati Dog greeted Bogaman warmly.

Pogaman finally came to his senses, and then his eyes became determined. He jumped up and threw himself into Populus euphratica's arms.

Seeing Bogaman's behavior, Hu Yang was confused, but he still reached out and took Bogaman, held it in his arms, and touched its soft and fluffy belly.

Bogaman didn't know it, but proudly crossed his arms.

Gengar: "Kou Jie..." (What is it doing?)

Charizard said in confusion: "Ouch?" (Maybe he also wants to let Populus euphratica hug him like us?)

The double-axe battle dragon on the side sighed silently.

Hu Yang did not use the power of the waveguide and could not understand what Gengar and Charizard were talking about.

Seeing that Bogaman was willing to take the initiative to get close to him, he lifted Bogaman up with a smile.

Hu Yang wanted to bury his face in the soft down on Bogaman's belly, but after thinking about it, he just met this Bogaman today. It would be bad if he was too perverted and scared it.

Therefore, Hu Yang just held Bogaman in his arms.

…

During dinner time, Bogaman sat alone and enjoyed his food happily.

Hu Yang sat not far away, watching the scene with Dr. Yamanashi.

Dr. Yamanashi said: "Pogaman is a Pokémon with a strong self-esteem. It is unwilling to accept charity from humans. In some cases, it will even refuse the food provided by the trainer and go outside to find food on its own."

"When many newcomers receive Bogaman, Bogaman will regard their feeding as charity and refuse to follow the trainer's instructions. Therefore, it is very difficult to have a good relationship with it."

Hu Yang nodded, keeping these words in mind.

As if he felt that the confidence of the boy next to him had been shaken, Dr. Yamanashi paused and then added:

"Of course, after getting along for a period of time, Bogaman will slowly start to accept the food provided by the trainer. As long as your relationship is better, those things won't be a problem."

"But one thing to note is that Bogaman has a strong competitive spirit. When there is a situation in your team that doesn't need it, or it feels that you don't need it, it is very likely to leave home secretly. Run away.”

Populus euphratica: "..."

His team includes the invincible Ancient Moon Bird, the self-navigating Rotom, the Gengar with a large storage space, the fire-breathing dragon that can fly people, the Kati dog that keeps people warm, and the special helper who can create a gravity field. The trained metal monster.

In this case, Pogaman wouldn't be so shocked that he would run away from home in frustration, right?

Hu Yang suddenly became worried.

After dinner, Dr. Yamanashi asked the assistants at the institute to prepare a room for Populus euphratica to rest.

Hu Yang wanted Bogaman to return to the elf ball, but looking at the elf ball, Bogaman refused with a serious expression.

"Boga!"

It stretched out its little hand and pushed away the elf ball handed to it.

"Huh? Don't want to stay in the elf ball?" Hu Yang looked at it.

Bogaman nodded quickly: "Bogaboga!"

Hu Yang was a little helpless.

He thought for a moment, and compared to large Pokémon like Charizard, Dual Ax Battle Dragon, and Metal Monster, it would indeed be easier for small Pokémon like Bogaman to stay outside.

After all, there are many trainers who travel with small Pokémon such as Pikachu, Eevee, Firemonkey, and Vulpix.

"Okay." Hu Yang agreed. Compared with five years ago, he has grown much taller now. It is still very easy to carry a Bogaman, which weighs less than ten pounds.

In order to become closer to Bogaman, Hu Yang slept with Bogaman in his arms that night.

Bogaman's body has a cool smell of cedar, which is quite refreshing.

Early the next morning, when Hu Yang woke up, he found that Bogaman's favorability had increased by more than ten points.

After washing up, Hu Yang was ready to say goodbye to Dr. Yamanashi and continue his journey.

But before he could tell Dr. Yamanashi, a familiar guy came into the institute.

It was a young man with a calm expression. He was wearing a black and purple jacket and a pair of loose black jeans. His whole person looked like he had an indifferent temperament.

Looking at the young man, Dr. Yamanashi asked in surprise: "Is it Shinji? Why are you here?"

The young man named Shinji glanced at the gentle young man not far away who was holding a weak-looking Pogaman. He quickly looked away and replied:

"I am going to attend the Lily of the Valley Conference in the Sinnoh region. I will pass by Zhensha Town and come to visit you, Doctor."

"That's it!" Dr. Yamanashi said with a smile: "Come in!"

Shinji nodded lightly and walked into the research institute.

Hu Yang also retracted his gaze from Shinji, looked at Dr. Yamanashi, and said, "Doctor, it's time for us to set off."

Dr. Yamanashi didn’t do much to persuade him: “In that case, let’s go!”

He looked at Bogaman and chuckled: "Little guy, remember to get along well with your trainer!"

Bogaman waved to Dr. Yamanashi and the grass turtle and little fire monkey who came out to see him off, and said goodbye: "Bogaboga~"

Dr. Yamanashi said: "Go!"

Hu Yang nodded, turned around and left the research institute, preparing to head to the next town.

But on the way, the scene from the Suzuran Conference in the anime appeared in his mind.

Since Ash's great rival Shinji is here, does that mean that the male divine beast Dakto, who has Darkrai and Latios, will also participate in this Suzuran Tournament?

Interesting, Populus euphratica became interested.

It would be great if I could meet him.
