Chapter 20: You Don’t Even Look at Me Seriously!
“A Poke Ball?”
Upon hearing Guxin’s words, Bai Qianqian and Chu Kelian suddenly changed their facial expressions, yet they were somewhat accustomed to his words. After all, Guxin occasionally tossed out words that were strange to them.
“Boss, what’s the use of this Poke ball? And this…”
An essential tool for Trainers?
Curious, Chu Kelian took the white Poke ball from Guxin’s hand, sifting through it. She had no idea what this Poke ball was for. However, based on what Guxin had just said, it captured the Poke of Pokemon and allowed them to rest.
Did you need to stuff the Poke of Pokemon into this Poke ball?
Come on, this Poke ball was so small. How could it contain a Charmander?
“Now’s not a good time to explain to you. But I can tell you that after Pokemon are captured in a Poke ball, they belong to you alone.”
“Moreover, Charmander and Wartortle are still small now. Of course, it’s no problem. However, when they become adults, their size won’t be as petite as it is now.”
“So it’s necessary to use a Poke ball to hold them.”
Gusin smiled and explained to the two that the standard height of a Wartortle and a Charmander was no less than that of an adult male, and that’s considering their average size. If they were well-nurtured and well-fed, their extents would only get more extensive, and taking them out in the future would be troublesome.
“But how do we use it?” Trusting Guxin’s words subconsciously, Bai Qianqian asked in confusion.
“The Poke balls you have in your hands are empty. Try throwing them toward your Poke Pokemon.”
“…”
Bai Qianqian and Chu Kelian exchanged glances, utterly baffled. However, they still attempted to throw the Poke Balls toward Charmander and Squirtle.
But the next moment, the eyes of both girls widened instantly.
As the Poke Balls made contact with the two Pokemon, they instantly opened, enveloping Charmander and Squirtle in red light. Subsequently, their figures were shrouded, and they disappeared into the Poke Balls.
This scene was so incredible that Chu Kelian was left in stunned silence, her mouth agape.
What the hell?
After the Pokes were absorbed, the indicator light in the center of the Poke Ball began to flash slowly.
One time, two times, three times…
Ding!
With a clear chime, the Poke Ball fell to the ground, finally calming down.
“It seems to have gone smoothly. This also means that Wartortle and Charmander have fully accepted you.”
Seeing this scene, Guxin remained calm, smiling as he explained.
“Not… Boss, what is this?!!”
“Ah, this…”
However, these two girls were utterly dumbfounded.
This was just too bizarre, right? A ball managed to contain two creatures that were so big.
Was this magic?
“Don’t be so surprised. This is how Poke balls work.”
Guxin looked at the two girls raising their eyebrows, and indeed, the Poke ball was truly shocking to the people of this world…
After all, this was completely unscientific. A living creature had turned into light and entered such a small Poke ball. Who would dare to believe that?
“But it’s still so…”
Bai Qianqian stared at the Poke Ball on the ground, still not recovering from her shock.
What kind of technology was this? Filling living beings? Or was it subspace technology? It was just too unreasonable.
“Boss, you wouldn’t be an alien, right?
“Don’t make such a fuss. That’s how Poke Balls work,” Guxin replied, raising an eyebrow. The technology behind Poke Balls was too astonishing for people to comprehend.
After all, it defied all scientific logic. Who would believe a living creature could transform into a light beam and enter a small Poke Ball?
“But this is just…” Bai Qianqian trailed off, still in disbelief, as she looked at the Poke ball on the ground.
What kind of technology was this? Bio loading? Or subspace technology? It’s just too unreasonable.
“Boss, you’re not an alien, are you?” Chu Kelian finally managed to calm her racing heart and looked at Guxin suspiciously.
“You are the alien, and your whole family is alien,” Guxin replied angrily.
Chu Kelian blinked and gently touched Guxin’s face with her tiny hand. “It doesn’t seem like it,” she said. She felt his normal body temperature and the usual texture of his skin.
“Miss Chu Kelian, even though you’re a guest, I still want to remind you that it’s not appropriate to touch someone without permission,” Guxin responded, his tone firm.
“It wouldn’t hurt if you let me touch you. Do you know how many boys at school want to hold my hand? I don’t even pay attention to them!” Chu Kelian retorted, rolling her eyes.
“Hmm,” Guxin replied, seemingly uninterested.
What’s the point of saying “yeah”? What are you trying to convey?
Seeing this, Chu Kelian stared at Guxin with frustration. What kind of dismissive expression and tone was this? He didn’t even glance at me properly! How annoying!
Damn it!
“I still can’t imagine it, boss. Did you develop this high-tech gadget yourself?”
Bai Qianqian picked up a Poke Ball and examined it. After pressing the central button, the ball opened again. A white light emerged, and Squirtle reappeared. Bai Qianqian stared at the Poke Ball in her hand in awe.
Damn, this is too awesome!
“Not exactly, as you will see later,” Guxin shook his head. Some technologies in the Pokemon world are far more advanced than this world: Pokemon ball technology, space backpack technology, Pokemon ball transmission technology, and more. The technology in the Pokemon world is highly developed, especially in the metropolis within the ultimate space.
In the Ultimate Metropolis, humans used technology to strip Ultimate Necrozma of its light, suppressing and sealing it within the Tower of the Ultimate Metropolis. Could you imagine that? It’s Necrozma, the pinnacle of combat power in the Pokemon world!
“But it was precise because the ancestors of the people in the Ultimate City took away Necrozma’s light and sealed it that the Ultimate City lost its light. Without it, life withered away and was on the verge of extinction,” Guxin explained.
It was a case of reaping what they sowed, but unfortunately, their descendants bore the consequences.
“But with this technology, you can carry Charmander with you,” Guxin added.
Guxin didn’t want to elaborate, so Bai Qianqian and Chu Kelian didn’t press for more information. They had already accepted that the shop and its owner were mysterious.
Chu Kelian captured the Trapinch in another Poke Ball, subduing them, and then released the two Pokemon with a satisfied smile.
Seeing the two girls satisfied, Guxin smiled, too. It was a great start.
