Chapter 172 Cemetery Protection Area
"Flower therapy rings, use flower therapy!"
"Sticky Beauty, the Drop of Life!"
Ever since he obtained the Flower Therapy Ring, Ye Kai's visits to the Pokémon Center have decreased dramatically.
This is so convenient.
When the two Pokémon used their skills together, they fully restored the HP of all the dozen or so Pokémon in the team in less than two minutes.
The Pokémon Center has been completely converted into a hotel.
It was getting dark, and it was already 6:30 pm, but it wasn't dark yet.
This shows how short the summer nights are.
There are quite a few wild spirits in this mountainous area.
In particular, the ultrasonic waves released by Zubat often harass passersby and Pokémon.
Once you're in a state of confusion, they'll take the opportunity to fly over and suck your blood.
These annoying guys aren't strong, but they have the advantage of being numerous.
Once you've gotten rid of the entanglement...
A huge cemetery came into view, the hillside densely covered with white tombstones...
Of course, the protected area and the cemetery are separated.
"Hey bro, wanna go into the protected area to catch Pokémon? 10 Poké Balls for 60."
"I'm not just here to catch Pokémon, here's the thing."
He then explained his purpose for coming.
"Oh, I see."
"But Lao Yang isn't here, so how about this?"
The forest ranger the boss recommended doesn't seem to be here today.
The young man's eyes darted around, as if he had thought of something.
"It's the same if you look for me, come out, you chandelier spirit!"
A giant chandelier, burning with purple flames, emerged.
"It also has magic tricks, just give me 30..."
This person is very likely a resident trainee; why wouldn't they want to earn extra money?
Ye Kai could understand his situation very well.
But what does your residency training have to do with me?
"15."
Cut it in half directly.
"...Okay, don't try to bargain with me. I'll tell you the distribution of Pokémon in this protected area, and I guarantee you won't lose out!"
The two quickly reached a deal.
He entered the cemetery reserve with 10 hunting balls.
Currently, Ye Kai has very few Pokémon that can learn the Trick Space skill; there's only one Slowpoke.
As a space manipulator, Slowbro's task is too heavy.
Having to both output content and create space doesn't seem like the best option.
However, he also had a spirit, namely the Mother's Love Servant.
It can also learn "Look at me" and magic space.
He's an absolute god in doubles!
Unfortunately, there is no doubles in this world for now, and there may not be in the future.
Battles between multiple Pokémon can only exist in deadly duels in the wild!
Ye Kai snapped out of his thoughts.
Regardless, I'll learn the skills first before trying to catch any Pokémon.
"Come out!"
He released Indeedee and Slowbro, and then took out the Psychic-type Energy Cube.
After arranging these things, we entered the secret realm of the cemetery.
Humans can't offer much help in teaching moves between Pokémon.
It all depends on the spirit itself.
So let them handle it themselves; that doesn't prevent them from catching Pokémon.
This cemetery conservation area is quite interesting.
Although it's eerie, the most common Pokémon are Night Watchers and Misdreavus.
Their bodies flicker and they appear frequently.
A dream demon, seeing Ye Kai approach, was about to attack out of curiosity.
Their path was blocked by the double-explosive gas.
Don't be fooled by the appearance of double-explosive gas.
It's similar to the Gastly family; they're both from the same egg group!
Seeing the big guy's menacing look, the dream demon turned tail and ran.
"Want to run?"
The Crobat immediately fired a Shadow Ball, knocking it down.
They arrested him on the spot.
Ghost-type Pokémon only appear at night and are rarely seen during the day.
The area designated for tombstones within the protected area is off-limits to visitors.
That is the final resting place for the locals and elves after they die.
These are places that are usually only open for worship on special holidays.
In the darkness, clusters of will-o'-the-wisps appeared...
Some are bluish-green, some are sky blue, and some are blood red.
An inexplicable fear gripped him.
However, this level is nothing compared to the Azurezorclaw in the Forest of Death.
Not only Ghost-type Pokémon are here, but many other types of Pokémon are also associated with the dead.
Every now and then, dark crows and cooers would make frightening noises.
They were dragged out by the cross-bats and brutally beaten with acrobatic moves, then captured.
Suddenly, a ball of black flame tried to leap into Ye Kai's shadow, but was driven out by Mud!
It's a Haunter!
Mud fired a flamethrower, forcing it back.
Gastly let out a sinister laugh and tried to launch a powerful attack.
The Crossbat immediately condensed a shadow ball, and the black shadow ball grew larger and larger...
The slime covered him completely, forming a colorful, hollow foam ball.
The outer side provides protection.
"boom!!"
The Shadow Ball exploded, bringing two Gastlys and one Haunter to near death.
They are far inferior to the cross-bats.
The difference can be as much as 10 levels, or even more than 20 levels!
This result is normal.
Gastly and Haunter are Poison-type Poison-type, and Ye Kai has long desired them.
but……
These three have different aptitudes: one is grade D, and two are grade E...
Even with the system in place, raising one's qualification level by two levels would only result in a mere B or C grade.
He has traveled for so long and has broadened his horizons.
Ye Kai had absolutely no interest in elves of this caliber.
They can only be sold or used as customs duties.
Perhaps if we keep searching, we might find even more interesting sprites?
Just as he was thinking this, he saw a small cemetery.
This is an illegally constructed elf graveyard.
After all, cemetery plots are expensive, and many people and elves can't afford them.
A small dog was wandering around aimlessly.
It always surrounds that lonely cemetery.
It ran over affectionately when it saw Ye Kai.
The crossbat knocked it down in one hit.
Ye Kai's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he quickly subdued it.
"The Grave Dog is said to be the reincarnation of a stray dog spirit that died before it came into contact with humans."
"It loves being close to people and is afraid of being alone. Even if you only play with it for a short while, it will follow you around."
Looking at the description in the encyclopedia, he couldn't help but think of a certain movie from this world.
Hachiko, the loyal dog.
The overall plot is similar to the story of 8 Loyal Dogs that Ye Kai read in his previous life.
Anyway, I'm the type who cried buckets after watching it.
Then Ye Kai approached the tombstone and saw the owner of the tomb.
It is a Growlithe dog named Hello Kitty.
There is no epitaph.
It seems that it has a close connection with this grave-dwelling dog...
【Grave Boy♂】
Level: LV.13 (Normal)
Aptitude: B-rank (This Pokémon's maximum level is 80!)
Attribute: Ghost
Special ability: Picking up items (sometimes you can pick up items used by your opponents, and you can also find them during your adventure.)
Moves: Tackle, growl, howl, lick, tail wag, bite, roar, headbutt!
Carried Items: None
After all that effort...
It's strange that this elf only has a B-grade aptitude.
Of course, you can keep this sprite for yourself, sell it, or trade it with someone else...
Ye Kai was still not giving up.
Surely we can't not find a Gastly or Haunter with a C-rank or higher aptitude?
Time passed second by second.
Following the map provided by the forester, he explored almost the entire cemetery reserve.
Around 4:30 a.m.
"Hey, wake up!"
It shook the body of the forest ranger on duty.
"Ugh! Ahhh!! Holy crap?!"
"Don't greet people like that while you're on the night shift, it's scary!"
The forest ranger, still half-asleep, forced himself to look at the newcomer.
Who else could it be but Ye Kai?
"You're ruthless too, staying up all night to catch these ghostly things."
"Alright, let's release all the Pokémon we caught and see what they're like!"
Two Murkrows, one Misdreavus, three Gastlys, one Haunter, one Graveg, two Sableyes, and several Lidglings, Spectral...
There are a total of 27 elves!
He only wanted one Graveyard, a dozen or so Misdreavus, Gastly, Sableye, Lidgment, and the rest were all used as customs duties.
Ye Kai definitely profited from this.
We'll have to find a place to recycle or replace these sprites later.
P.S.: True to my word, I'll add an extra chapter once that post gets 10 replies.
