Chapter 161 The Shock Brought by Regirock
Chapter 161 The Shock Brought by Regirock
Seeing Professor Oak's hands trembling from the shock, Brock confirmed the news again, even mentioning that he had already told his father.
Brock's father is the Gym Leader of Pewter City, and he will be the Gym Leader in the future. So there's no need to lie to them.
After hearing Brock's words, Professor Oak recovered from his shock. He was, after all, a Champion-level Trainer; he couldn't afford to lose face in front of a bunch of children.
However, he also roughly knew why Wu Neng hadn't informed the Alliance. It was probably because of Xiao Gang's relationship with Xuan Mingtian. If his son had such a friend, he wouldn't have told the Alliance about this either.
"But judging from Xiaotian's words, is he trying to convey the message to the League through his own words? But it doesn't matter, he has four such Pokémon protecting him, so he can basically do whatever he wants in Sinnoh."
At that moment, Professor Oak thought to himself, "In that case, I should inform the League."
"Xiao Tian, then hurry up and take us to see it! I can't wait!"
Xuan Mingtian then walked towards the indoor training ground on his own, followed by a number of people. Some wanted to witness Regirock's heroic figure, while others just wanted to take another look at it.
After all, every time they saw that magnificent body, they realized that this was the so-called legendary elf.
In less than fifteen minutes, everyone had gathered at the training ground. Xuan Mingtian casually pulled out a Poké Ball containing Regirock.
"Bang~ Chirp~"
The sound of the Poké Ball opening was accompanied by the appearance of a figure as tall as an adult.
"Rei~Regirock": Boss, what's up? Or do we need to fight?
After Xiao Ke's translation, Xuan Mingtian understood its meaning.
"Little Stone, I didn't send you out to fight. My friends and family want to get to know you."
Upon hearing Xuan Mingtian's words, Regirock immediately ceased its battle stance. It then made a fist-and-palm gesture, the only way it could greet people since it had no hands.
"Regi~Regirock"
"Everyone, it's saying hello to you."
At this moment, Xuan Mingtian told people the general meaning of it.
"Hello…"
As the chorus of greetings rang out, Regirock withdrew his fists, quietly awaiting Xuan Mingtian's command.
"Xiao Tian, this is incredible. I never thought you could actually subdue them."
In contrast, Professor Oak, while speaking, had already moved to Regirock's side and was constantly stroking its rocky body.
"Xiao Tian, how strong is it? It feels about the same as your tropical dragon."
Tropius is actually just as strong as Regirock, both being mid-Champion level Pokémon. However, Tropius achieved its strength through training, progressing step by step from Elite level.
Regirock, on the other hand, was granted this power, and although its internal energy was almost the same as the former, its combat experience was pitifully small, since it had only ever guarded Regigigas since its creation.
"Its strength is similar to that of the Tropius, both at the mid-Champion level. However, the latter can easily defeat it."
"A mid-stage champion? It can't be that weak. According to the information from the league, it should be at least a level three god. How come it can't even beat a tropical dragon?"
Having already searched his mind for information about the three legendary Titans and Regigigas, Professor Oak said with a puzzled expression.
“Professor Oak, what you’re talking about are the three legendary Regirocks of the Hoenn region. Regigigas created them a long time ago, and the one next to you was created during its final slumber, precisely to prevent humans from disturbing it.”
In an instant, Professor Oak realized something. He knew that the three Legendary Regiments were all created by Regigigas, who was sleeping in the Sinnoh region. Creating three more Regiments would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?
Just like Ho-Oh's Royal Guards, they were all resurrected and granted power. Moreover, the Royal Guards aren't only found in the Johto region, but also in other areas. It seems Ho-Oh has resurrected quite a few Pokémon while roaming around.
"Hey Xiaotian, could I take it back to Zhenxin Town tomorrow and get it measured while I'm at it?"
“Professor Oak, there’s no need for that. I’ll have someone build a research lab at the manor later, and you and Granny Iris can conduct your research here. After all, Brock’s Geodude and Larvitar need its guidance and training.”
Xuan Mingtian could not agree to Professor Oak's request to take Regirock away. Even if Professor Oak had no ill intentions, it was impossible, because Regirock already had an owner.
"That's wonderful! I was planning to stay here a few more days. This arrangement is perfect."
It seems Professor Oak didn't have any ulterior motives; Xuan Mingtian was just overthinking it.
"Xiaotian, could you let your Tropius guide my Dragonite? It's been stuck at the semi-champion stage for a long time."
"Uh, Professor Oak, you must have Champion-level Guardian Pokémon at home, right? Then why do you need my Tropius to guide you?"
This question stumped Xuan Mingtian, especially since the other party also possessed a Guardian Spirit, and a Champion-level one at that, though he didn't know which one. But wasn't this a bit too frivolous?
"I also want the guardian spirit in my house to guide it, but the spirit's type doesn't match. There isn't a trace of dragon-type energy in its body."
After hearing Professor Oak's explanation, Xuan Mingtian understood. It seemed the guardian Pokémon in the former's house wasn't even a dragon!
However, despite being a Grass/Flying type, Tropius possesses Dragon-type blood and energy.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to use Dragon-type skills, and Xuan Mingtian had also told it that it should use Dragon-type skills more often and sense Dragon-type energy more frequently in the future, striving to achieve even greater success.
"Professor Oak, this is putting me in a difficult position. Getting guidance from a Champion-level Pokémon is something you can only dream of. Let alone a Tropius with Dragon-type energy."
Xuan Mingtian then subtly made a request, wanting guidance from a champion-level Pokémon. That would come at a price; after all, there's no such thing as a free lunch.
Even the mustard greens standing nearby didn't plead for Professor Oak.
"Xiao Tian, I understand all of this. Tell me, what do you want?"
"Alright then, let me ask first. What type of Pokémon is your guardian spirit?"
As the transaction began, Xuan Mingtian certainly couldn't miss the opportunity to learn about his family's guardian spirit.
"My pet is a Moltres, a descendant of the legendary one."
"hiss……"
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone present gasped in astonishment. This news was truly explosive; no one had expected the Oak family to have connections with Moltres. Although only a third-tier deity, their strength was already considerable.
