He had heard a rumor before: Humans in the Pokémon world are actually a special kind of Pokémon.
Twenty minutes after eating the Pecha Berry, Alex saw that the poison marks on his side began to fade away.
This phenomenon further verified the authenticity of the rumor.
Perhaps this is the reason why some people with special abilities are born among humans?
For example, the power of Viridian, psychic abilities, and the power of aura.
Seeing this scene, the Skwovet was about to leave with its chubby body twisting after making sure Alex was all right.
Alex quickly stopped it and glanced at the Pokémon's detailed information by the way.
[Species: Skwovet ♂]
Type: Normal
Ability: Gluttony
Base Stats: 460 (HP: 120, Attack: 95, Defense: 95, Special Attack: 55, Special Defense: 75, Speed: 20)
Known moves: Tail Whip, Tackle, Bite, Stuff Cheeks
Current mood: Conflicted, happy
Physical condition: Minor injury (muscle tissue strain on the right leg, recovery period is about 1.5 days.)
Fatigue (Physical exertion after strenuous exercise leads to poor mental state.)
Friendliness: 38 (a little guy who likes to be close to humans)
"Squeak?" The Skwovet turned around and made a suspicious sound, as if asking if there was anything else?
Alex asked, "Do you know in which direction I can find a human town?"
"Squeak..." The Skwovet made a thoughtful gesture and quickly pointed out a direction.
Alex looked happy, thanked the Skwovet, turned around, and continued walking in that direction.
As he walked, he compared the detailed information of the two Pokémon.
Archeops's base stats and moves have been modified. Except for these two, there is not much difference from normal Pokémon.
The only difference is that Archeops's current emotions are a string of garbled characters, while the emotions of the Skwovet are clearly and straightforwardly displayed in front of him.
Thinking of this, Alex looked at the information of other Pokémon on the roadside.
Sure enough, he saw words such as "vigilant" and "nervous" in the mood column above.
"Could it be that Archeops can't understand human language because it has been modified?"
Or in other words, modifying the Pokémon would cause irreversible damage to the Pokémon's brain? so as to make it a fool?
Alex was a little uncertain.
This tool of his has been with him for many years. Before time travel, this thing was what he relied on.
At first, he was very pleasantly surprised that it traveled through with him, but now that he thought about it carefully, he felt something was not quite right.
The three templates "Ability Modification," "Base Stat Modification," and "Individual Stat Modification" were lost, and now he can only use the three items of identification, move teaching, and shiny modification.
You can't lose halfway, right? Alex has read so many online novels and has never heard of such a thing.
But...
The matter of time travel itself is quite unbelievable, and it would not be surprising if anything else happened.
After careful consideration, Alex decided not to use other functions on Pokémon except identification until he got the truth.
After all, the Pokémon here are not data in the game; they have flesh and blood, emotions, and intelligence.
Without means of transportation, the range of human beings is always limited.
Until dark, Alex did not see the shadow of the human town.
It rained unseasonably.
In desperation, Alex had no choice but to stop on his way, found a tree hole in a big tree, wrapped his clothes around himself, and got in.
I am really unlucky.
Seeing the heavy rain outside, Alex showed a wry smile on his face.
But there are also some things to be happy about.
That is to find a temporary safe haven and find a wild fruit tree full of fruits not far away.
Because his clothes were still a little damp, Alex let Archeops out and hugged it to keep warm.
Archeops was very obedient in this situation. Although they couldn't communicate with each other, they had a perfect understanding at this moment.
The autumn rain was continuous, and the wild Pokémon in the forest were looking for shelter from the rain.
After the initial noise, the forest quickly quieted down, leaving only the sound of rain all over the sky.
In the drowsy environment, a few Seedot hid in a row in the dense bushes, and the usual Dustox, which usually flew randomly, also obediently lay in the shadow behind the tree trunk where the rain couldn't reach.
Alex took the berries out of his clothes, gave half to Archeops, and kept the other half for dinner and tomorrow's breakfast.
Although it wasn't filling, it was better than nothing.
At this time, there was a sudden noise outside.
Alex looked up and saw a tail that was drenched in the rain looking at him.
The Furret obviously didn't expect that there would be a ten-year-old boy hiding here; it was frightened, turned around, and ran into the grass.
Alex: "..." Is he so scary?
In the past, Alex could not fall asleep until the early morning, but today he ran around like a headless chicken in the forest all day, coupled with the hypnotic sound of the rain, he quickly closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, it was dawn and the rain outside had stopped.
More importantly, Archeops was also gone!
Alex was shocked and quickly climbed out of the tree hole. At this moment, Archeops flew back from the sky.
Alex breathed a sigh of relief.
Archeops landed on the ground, opened its mouth, and spat out a very fat Magikarp from inside.
"Gah!"
Alex looked happy, uncertain: "Is this for me?"
Archeops stopped talking again; it had just eaten a full meal, and now it was using its beak to straighten its feathers.
Alex was very disappointed; is it still impossible to communicate?
He looked at the dying fish on the ground. Without a fire, he couldn't roast it, and he wasn't hungry enough to eat it raw.
After thinking for a while, Alex picked a few large leaves from the tree, wrapped the fish in them, put them into a package made of a coat, and carried them on his back together with the remaining berries from yesterday.
Out of various considerations, Alex did not put Archeops back into the Master Ball this time.
He tried to give it an order to follow, but Archeops tilted its head, looking dull.
Alex tried not to call it again, and walked forward by himself for more than ten meters. This time, Archeops followed him by itself, hanging on his shoulder like Nakoruru's Mamahaha.
"You know how to find a place..." Alex said helplessly.
It had just rained, and the forest seemed very humid. Being in such an environment was uncomfortable, and Alex felt as if fifty Caterpie were crawling and wriggling on his body.
After walking forward for a certain distance, there was a sudden sound of human speaking not far away.
Alex instantly became excited.
He concentrated and held his breath, and after confirming the direction of the sound, he ran directly in that direction.
From a long distance, he saw two men wearing the same uniform and carrying Pokémon.
In front of them lay a petite white Pokémon.
Two huge Mightyena approached from different directions and let out a deterrent growl.
Um? Something seems wrong.
Alex stopped and hid behind the bushes with Archeops, only showing part of his eyes to look over there.
"Damn it, I finally caught this little thing!" Standing on the left side, the man with a stronger figure cursed.
His accomplice grinned when he heard this: "This time it will definitely sell for a good price!"
At this time, Alex finally saw the appearance of the white figure clearly.
