Chapter 522 The Well of Slowpoke
Due to the worship of Ho-oh and Lugia, the ancient capital area generally followed the tradition of harmonious coexistence with elves.
When a girl named Xiao Huang walked into the Elf Center with a Slowpoke, the news that someone maliciously cut off the Slowpoke's tail quickly spread like wildfire.
People in the whole town felt unusually angry. Under the leadership of Mr. Steel, many trainers went to the Well of Slowpoke to investigate.
Ah Jin, who witnessed the whole process, had a suspicion about this incident.
That red-haired bastard should be nearby. Did he do this?
But the other person doesn't seem like someone who would waste time on such things.
It's better to talk to Xiao Huang and investigate the clues.
Then he came to Xiao Huang, who was waiting worriedly for the end of Slowpoke's treatment.
"Xiao Huang, long time no see." Ah Jin noticed the 4 Poke Balls on the opponent's waist, "Have you recently made up your mind to become a trainer?"
Not long ago, there was only one Pikachu and a little Gueran, but now they are all full. Could it be that they have gained something from the distortion of time and space?
Xiao Huang, who was full of Slowpoke, didn't react for a moment. After being stunned for a moment, he smiled and said: "I have always been a trainer."
After that, she released all the elves. Except for Qiuqiu, who was originally beside her, the other elves in the three elf balls were——
Little Guoran, Little Ratta, Green Caterpillar.
"This is little Guoran, and there are also the new little Lala and Little Caterpillar!"
Ah Jin's eyes went dark.
Two house rats, one house bug, and a little Gueran who doesn't fight back when beaten, your lineup is too abstract!
"I met them when I was fishing near the Alfu ruins before. They are cute, right?"
"Very cute, too cute." What else could A Jin say.
After that, Ajin learned about Xiao Huang's recent experience.
When she came to Juniper Town, she originally wanted to see how Slowpoke fished with its tail, but she unexpectedly found a spiritless Slowpoke in the corner.
After questioning, she learned that some people had been cutting off their tails in recent times.
Since the Slowpoke in Jupi Town don't really need their tails for fishing, they have never been too lazy to resist, and don't think there's anything wrong with the thing falling off.
But there was something wrong with the one that Xiao Huang picked up.
"Its regenerative power seems to be stronger than that of other Slowpoke beasts. Its tail grows much faster. And because it is unlucky, its tail has been cut off many times..."
Regeneration requires nutrients, and the people in Juniper Town actually don't feed them too much food out of pampering, causing the Slowpoke to become slightly malnourished.
But this is still a trivial matter. The problem is that frequent tail docking causes the Slowpoke's wounds to become infected, and the habitat is too humid, causing the infected parts to gradually develop lesions.
So Xiao Huang took it to the elf center.
After listening to the other party's story of rescuing Slowpoke, Ajin nodded: "So that's what happened. Outsiders need to find out if Slowpoke's tail is infected and inflamed. I don't think the people in Jupi Town love them much."
As soon as he said this, he was immediately met with malicious looks from some locals in the elf center, and Ajin stared back in dissatisfaction.
"But... maybe it's just a coincidence that I didn't notice it." Xiao Huang retorted in a voice as loud as a mosquito, "It's not entirely their fault."
After all, not everyone can understand the inner thoughts of the elf like Xiao Huang.
In fact, she was not the Slowpoke found outside the Well of Slowpoke, but used some special ability to learn about the situation from the elf.
The people of Jupik Town regard the Well of Slowpoke as a sacred place. They would not enter it at will unless there is no cleaning or other special circumstances. They only send people to guard it nearby.
Due to the serious disease, the Slowpoke was actually so uncomfortable that it had not gone out or eaten for two or three days, so Xiao Huang secretly sneaked into the Well of Slowpoke to bring it out...
About an hour later, the trainers who had previously gone to investigate the Well of Slowpoke returned to the Elf Center one after another.
The two learned from their mouth that even though they had searched everything inside, they could not find anyone hiding inside.
I found a lot of Slowpoke with its tail cut off.
According to Mr. Steel's speculation, the criminal probably sneaked in during the night and cut off Slowpoke's tail.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, he temporarily asked most of the people to wait in the elf center, planning to attack the prisoner from both inside and outside!
Seeing that the townspeople looked like they were going to fight to the death tonight, Ah Jin suddenly thought of intervening.
Although he felt that this incident was not caused by Hong Mao, but what if it happened?
If the townspeople caught the other person and sent him away to Junsha, wouldn't they have no chance to beat him up to get revenge and vent their anger?
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at the girl beside him: "Xiao Huang, if you look at the days, that red-haired thief should be nearby. Do you think he did this?"
After all, Xiaoyin has a criminal record.
"It seems possible?" Xiao Huang thought thoughtfully. From the Slowpoke's mouth, she learned that the color of the people who cut off their tails was very red.
Could it be that Slowpoke is referring to red hair?
Ajin nodded: "Yes, since the other party is a habitual offender, we can't act rashly! So I have an idea..."
…
While someone was deceiving the ignorant girl, Xiaozhi and his team were picking cones in the back mountain.
After returning to Mr. Steel's house, I found that the old man looked a little breathless and his expression was extremely unkind.
After asking, I found out that the Slowpoke Wells had their tails cut off by bad guys.
"This must be Team Rocket's doing!" Xiaoxia, who already had a personal grudge with the other party, was immediately filled with indignation. "Xiaozhi, let's go. We must teach them a lesson this time - use the iron tail to tear Musashi's long hair." Cut it!"
"Okay!" "Pikachu!"
"etc!"
However, before Ash and Misty, who rushed out with Pikachu without thinking, could go out, Mr. Steel called them back.
"Unplanned commotion will only scare people away, and may even disturb those Slowpoke beasts!"
Slowpoke is the belief of the people in Juniper Town, and there is absolutely no room for mistakes.
"The leader of the Hinoki Gym is not here for the time being, and most of the trainers in the town are weak, so I would like to ask you to sneak into the Well of Slowpoke and hide..."
Two gym owners, one runner-up in the Quartz Competition, and Dr. Omu, are definitely better than the group of trainers in town who only know how to play with bugs.
Let Zhi Gangxia and the others go in and stay there. They will attack immediately when the prisoner appears, and then they will attack with other trainees from home and outside.
This way, we should be able to catch the Slowpoke without harming them.
"No problem Mr. Steel, just wait for the good news from us! We are the best at dealing with Team Rocket!"
"Pickup!"
Zhi Gangxia and the others left immediately, planning to compete with Team Rocket after a long absence.
After the three of them went out reliably, Mr. Steel walked into the back room holding the cones picked by the three of them.
After letting outsiders help so much, we might as well help them get more Poké Balls.
The old man who was thinking this way accidentally glanced at the ancestral hall in the inner room.
But they discovered that the ancestral hall dedicated to the gods had undergone incredible changes!
