Pokémon Padea Adventure: The Journey Continues

Dunzi, who met him in the "Baked Hollow", immediately became alert after hearing what Paper said.

"What! From your tone, Papa, you also want to participate in the cooking competition in "Baking Town" with the theme of "Spicy Flavor"? "

Piper nodded and continued.

"That's right. I got the Sweet Badge in Deep Bowl Town and the Bitter Badge in Glass Bottle City. So far, I have two Taste Badges. I only need one more badge to qualify for the Cooking Finals."

After hearing the number of badges that Papa had, Dunzi puffed out her petite chest and said with disdain.

"What? So after I lost to you that time, you only got one more badge. Your progress is so slow... After that, I got two "Taste Badges"."

"So I can have another match with you before the finals. After this "Spicy" cooking competition, Papa, you should also think about where to get another badge, because this "Spicy" badge belongs to me!"

Papa looked at Dunzi's nonsense, just smiled and replied.

"Well, let's hope we can have a great game!"

Looking at the gentle Papa, who was not angered by his words, Dunzi said softly, "Tsk."

"It's boring..."

Xiaozhi, who was behind Dunzi, was curiously observing Dunzi's Charizard. Dunzi's Charizard was smaller in size and was a female Charizard.

Xiaozhi's actions and constant probing actually angered Charizard. A "cross" of blue veins appeared on Charizard's forehead, and then a flame spewed out of its mouth and attacked Xiaozhi's face.

"Ouch!"

“Ah… it’s so hot!”

After a burst of flames, people began to notice the chaos between Ash and Charizard. After being attacked, Ash turned dark, had a charred afro hair, spewed black smoke from his mouth, and fell heavily to the ground.

"Xiao Zhi, are you okay!"

Everyone immediately gathered around him. Xiaoqing and Piper squatted down to check on Xiaozhi's injuries, while Dunzi pulled Charizard over and scolded him.

"Charizard, what's wrong with you?"

Then he apologized to Xiaozhi.

"I'm sorry, Xiaozhi! My Charizard is usually very docile. Even during the time when it was training in the valley where many Charizards lived, it would not take the initiative to attack all kinds of rude wild Charizards. What happened?"

As soon as Dunzi finished speaking, Xiaozhi quickly stood up and recovered from the attack, which made Xiaoqing and the others admire Xiaozhi's recovery ability. They didn't know that this was already a piece of cake for Xiaozhi, who was familiar with Charizard's "Jet Flame".

After standing up, Xiaozhi immediately comforted Dunzi.

"It's okay, Dunzi, don't blame Charizard. I'm also used to being attacked by Charizard. This is nothing..."

Listening to Xiaozhi's advice, he felt confused about what he meant by getting used to Charizard's attacks. Just as Xiaozhi was curious about what Dunzi had just said, about Charizard training in a valley with a group of wild Charizards, Xiaozhi was about to ask for clarification, but was interrupted by another commotion.

"Dunzi, the valley you just mentioned where wild fire-breathing dragons live, could it be..."

"Motorcycle, motorcycle..."

A roar of Pokémon came from the exit of the "Baked Hollow", and then a few black shadows jumped over the heads of Xiaozhi and his friends. Looking at the figures walking away, Xiaozhi and his friends realized that they were the three Motorbike Lizards returning.

Xiaoqing then immediately shouted.

"Wait! Those three motorcycle lizards, please help us climb up this huge terrain..."

Before Xiaoqing could finish her words, she saw the agile motorcycle lizard quickly leave here and disappear without a trace.

Xiaoqing lowered her head in depression, while Dunzi beside her laughed.

"Haha, Xiaoqing! Do you want to climb up this huge drop? No need to rely on the Motorcycle Lizards, my Charizard can do it for you!"

Xiaoqing recovered from her depression and said after slapping her forehead.

"Yeah! Dunzi's Charizard can fly... I didn't think of that..."

After the agreement, Xiaozhi and his friends put the Earth Dragon, Qilin, and Bugger, who had helped them overcome the huge terrain ups and downs and were exhausted and panting, back into the Poké Ball.

Afterwards, Charizard transported the four trainers, including Satoshi and Dunzi, in two batches and sent everyone to the upper floors. Now they were only a few steps away from the exit, so Satoshi and the others rushed into the light without stopping.

After exiting the "Beigu Cave", the scenery on the huge rock suddenly opens up, and what comes into view is a vast expanse of green grass. After walking up the slowly ascending road, a small town with an exotic atmosphere appears.

Xiaozhi and his friends watched while walking towards the town. They saw that "Beigu Town" was not completely located on the top of the giant rock, but was a concave basin-like terrain in the area of ​​the giant rock.

This fashionable town lies quietly on the top of a huge rock. In the concave terrain, there is a circle of raised mountain walls surrounding the top of the mountain, which protects the town from the fierce hurricanes from high above, making the town seem to be living a peaceful life.

The main industry of "Beigu Town" is pottery making. The town's architecture is also full of exotic style. Most of the buildings are decorated with mosaic murals. The artistic atmosphere here is no worse than that of "Shenbo Town".

After landing safely in "Bagu Town", Xiaozhi rarely shouted that he wanted to challenge the "Bagu Gym". At this time, Xiaozhi was eager to try after seeing the powerful Charizard of Dunzi, and his blood as a Pokémon battle fanatic was boiling again.

Then Xiaozhi was about to ask Dunzi for his physical strength to fight Pokémon, but he was interrupted as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Dun..."

"Okay, Papa and everyone, I have to go to the town's "Pokémon Center" to register first. Papa, don't forget... I have to leave first to train for the upcoming "Spicy" cooking competition. Bye..."

After Dunzi finished speaking, he left in a hurry. Xiaozhi stood there awkwardly, then became dejected.

Afterwards, Xiaozhi and his group slowly walked into the town and also went to the "Pokémon Center" in the town to participate in the cooking competition with the theme of "Spicy".

Xiaozhi and Xiaoqing were waiting outside for Papper to complete his registration. After Papper finished filling out the application form and came out, he said to Xiaozhi and the others.

"Phew! Registration is closed, but the cooking competition hasn't started yet. I heard that it's because Ms. Lip is holding the last show of her own brand's touring model show in "Baking Town". Not only has the cooking competition been postponed, but she has also had to give up her gym challenge job at "Baking Gym". "

When Xiaozhi heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue. On the one hand, his request to spar with Dunzi's Charizard was not met, and on the other hand, even the gym challenge they came for could not proceed.

Piper continued.

"Since we are here and the two games cannot be held, let's follow Miss Joy's suggestion and go visit Ms. Lip's model show, which is located at the high tower in the town."

Following the direction of Papa's finger, there is indeed a towering iron tower standing in the town of "Beigu Town". On the first floor of the building under the iron tower, there is a logo of the Padiya Alliance Gym in front of it, indicating that this is the "Beigu Gym".

The huge building above it that resembles a French iron tower is said to be an artistic building that Lip, a top makeup artist, learned after traveling overseas.

Xiaozhi and his friends learned in advance that they would not be able to perform the gym challenge today, so they did not go to the front desk on the first floor to sign up.

After climbing up to the second floor through the stairs next to the first floor, everyone was impressed by the majesty of the huge iron tower in front of them. Looking up at the hollow iron tower structure above, the view was wide. There was a large square under the towering iron tower. Tourists from all over the world sat on the two rows of seats on the left and right. A long red carpet was spread out in the middle, on which the models walked the catwalk. The flash shutters of the audience on the left and right kept clicking, wanting to record the beauty of the model show.

When Xiaozhi and his friends first arrived here, a fashion show was going on, so they went to an empty seat and sat down to enjoy the show together.

On the red carpet, the models walking on the catwalk were tall and gorgeously dressed. In addition to their gorgeous clothes, their makeup was even more eye-catching.

Visitors communicate at the front desk of Xiaozhi.

"It's worthy of being a model show hosted by Ms. Lip. It's capable of going to other regions and touring the entire Padia!"

"No, Ms. Lip is not only an excellent model, but also a top makeup artist. Under her skillful hands, all models can show their beauty."

As they were talking, the model show seemed to be coming to an end. Just as Xiaozhi and the others were about to leave, they heard the host's voice on the radio.

"This fashion show hosted by top makeup artist Ms. Lip was supposed to end, but they decided to add another small show. It was from a reclusive fashion designer whom Ms. Lip had just met. His work debuted at the last show of this touring fashion show. It was also a brand new clothing display that had never been presented in other times and regions before!"

"Please stay for a while and don't leave. It's fate. I hope you will waste a little time to show some encouragement to this young fashion designer who is not very popular and low-key."

After listening to the news on the radio, the audience members who had stood up sat down one after another and discussed among themselves.

"What! There's a hidden program that doesn't appear in other performances... We've got a great bargain!"

Looking at the cheering expressions of the crowd, Xiaozhi and his group could only sit back in their seats and speak in a low voice.

"This is how the same thing?"

"I heard there's a new fashion show. Since we're here, let's take a look at it..."

"But, the designer is said to be like a mysterious dragon that is hard to find. What kind of person is he?"

This was not only the doubt of Xiaozhi and his friends, but also the doubt of all the audience members. What was said in the next broadcast answered everyone's questions.

"Since models nowadays need to spend some time preparing for their outfits and makeup, I would like to share some information about the fashion designer with the audience."

"It was not long ago that Ms. Lip came back from the overseas region, the Galar Region. She landed at the pier of the town of Zheqin in the Sea of ​​Zepadia by boat. At the Zheqin Market, she met a hidden fashion designer who was selling his original clothing in the form of an auction!"

The audience's eyes lit up at the fascinating story, and the story of a top makeup artist meeting a reclusive fashion designer made people's curiosity explode.

"…This is how Ms. Lip met the new fashion designer, and after some communication, they came to this cooperation. However, the young designer is extremely mysterious. The clothes he usually wears are also designed by himself. The bold color matching, style, and taste seem strange, which is hard to accept at first…"

The audience booed when they heard the introduction of the designer's taste on the radio. They were worried about the strange clothes that might be foreseen next. After all, it was hard to imagine what amazing works could be created by such a little-known grassroots designer.

Just as people were speculating like this, the radio sounded.

"Alright everyone, the models are ready, and this impromptu model show is about to begin!"

As lights and music reappeared, the models, who had been gorgeous and dignified, now changed into "strange" clothes that were different from those they had shown before. The bright colors and exaggerated designs made the people in the audience dumbfounded and they fell into a brief immersion.

Linjia's show didn't waste too much time, only showing a few of the designer's designs. Until the end of the show, the people present were still calm...

"What's going on? Is Linjia's show bad? I think it's pretty good..."

Just as Xiaozhi and the others thought so, the organizer, because of the quiet performance of the audience, sent a graceful woman wearing a light purple short dress, with hair as flowing as "auspicious clouds", and stepped onto the front desk in high heels.

The voice on the radio also introduced it at the right time.

"The next person to appear is Ms. Lip, a top model and makeup artist known as the 'super-powered magic makeup artist'. She will take the stage with a group of models to express her gratitude. Please welcome!"

"That's Ms. Lip, the gym leader of the "Baking Gym"!"

In the silent audience, Xiaozhi was the first to stand up, unable to suppress his desire to have a Pokémon battle.

Lip was also embarrassed at this time, wondering if the performance just now was not satisfactory. When she was about to say something to the audience, there was suddenly a burst of warm applause and cheers.

The crowd in the audience cheered and stood up, drowning out the figure of Xiaozhi who had just stood up in the back row.
