Chapter 107 Li Meining is warming up
The wetland is beautiful, lush, and full of aquatic plants. As soon as Li Shuwen got out of the car, he took a deep breath and immediately felt refreshed.
Li Meining was very excited, "The environment in the Great Wetlands is so good, the Pokémon in the Wild Area must be growing very well!"
"I'm determined to catch the best Fighting Pokémon!"
Li Shuwen offered a reminder: "Since you're going on a trip, don't limit yourself to just catching Fighting-type Pokémon."
"You can catch any Pokémon you encounter that suits your taste."
Li Meining rubbed her hands together, eager to try her hand at it. "Then I'm going to use all thirty of my field balls!"
Li Shuwen turned his head. "Shinji, do you have any Pokémon you plan to catch?"
Shinji shook his head. "No, I have high standards for Pokémon. Although there are many Pokémon in the Wild Area, they may not meet my standards."
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "The Wild Area is very vast; perhaps a very rare Pokémon is hidden in some corner."
"It all depends on our luck and whether we can run into him."
In the anime, Ash only visited the Safari Zone once in the Kanto region.
I was very lucky to encounter a mother and baby dragon (Hydra) and a baby dragon (Minidra).
However, Ash's confidence may have been greatly undermined by the fact that he caught thirty Tauros in the Safari Zone.
Since then, Ash has never been to any other wild areas.
What rare Pokémon can be found in the wild areas of the Great Wetlands?
Li Shuwen didn't know either.
If Dratini is found in the Kanto region's Safari Zone, then Gible should also be found in the Sinnoh region's Safari Zone.
Li Shuwen had already exhausted himself with just one Heartscale Gible, so he had no plans to breed another Gible for the time being.
The three arrived at the entrance to the wilderness area, and Li Shuwen said to the ticket window, "Please give us three tickets."
The staff member smiled and said, "No problem, it'll be 1,500 in total. You can only use the Field Balls specially provided in the Wild Area to catch Pokémon."
"There are numerous cameras inside the Wild Area. If anyone is found illegally using Pokémon battles to catch Pokémon in the Wild Area, they will be subject to a fine of up to 500,000 yen."
"Or you could be arrested by Officer Jenny and sent to a detention center to reflect on your actions. If there are no further questions, please go to the entrance to collect thirty Field Balls."
Holding their tickets, the three arrived at the entrance and saw a middle-aged cowboy standing there.
He had a cigarette in his mouth, but it wasn't lit, and a revolver was tucked into his waistband.
"I'm Octavian, the security guard for the Wilderness area. Don't let me find out if you've done anything wrong."
Octavian patted the revolver at his waist. "Otherwise, don't blame me for greeting you with my old buddy."
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "I'm the prospective Gym Leader of the Veiled Dojo, so please rest assured. May I ask where the Wilderness Area is?"
Octavian did not change his attitude just because Li Shuwen was the prospective headmaster. He coldly pointed to the basket in the corner.
"Each basket contains thirty field balls; take one basket and put it in."
Carrying her basket, Li Meining entered the field area and, after getting away from Octavian, couldn't help but complain, "What kind of person is he? So fierce!"
Shinji explained casually, "He just wanted to intimidate the trainers who enter the Wild Area and reduce their workload."
"Five hundred dollars isn't expensive. Although you might not be able to catch a single Pokémon with thirty Field Balls, if you find a Pokémon you like, you can definitely spend another five hundred dollars to buy thirty more Field Balls."
Li Meining's eyes lit up. "Can I go back now and buy thirty more field balls?"
Li Shuwen shook his head with a smile, "No, one ticket per day, and only thirty field balls are provided per day."
Under normal circumstances, with thirty field balls, as long as your luck isn't too bad, you should be able to catch one or two Pokémon.
Compared to the 500 yuan entrance fee, the price is incredibly cheap.
Ash used 500 coins to catch 30 Tauros, which was actually a great deal.
Not far from the entrance is a clear, azure lake, as smooth as a mirror.
Before we even reached the lake, a mosquito tadpole jumped out of the water.
Li Meining's eyes lit up, and she grabbed a field ball and threw it over.
His years of martial arts training allowed him to accurately hit the mosquito coil tadpole with his baseball.
Li Meining quickly grabbed the second field ball. If the mosquito coil tadpole broke free, she would immediately throw it, making sure the mosquito coil tadpole didn't get away.
Perhaps Li Meining's throw was too powerful, stunning the mosquito tadpole, allowing the field ball to successfully capture it.
Li Meining excitedly stepped forward, grabbed a baseball, and struck a pose, announcing, "I caught a Poliwag!"
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "To evolve Mosquito Coil Frog into Swimming Frog, you need a Water Stone; to evolve into Bullfrog King, you need a King's Certificate. It's up to you which one you choose."
"Furthermore, you'll need to obtain the evolution items yourself. Since you're going on a trip, I won't be providing you with any more assistance."
Li Meining blinked. "Does Poliwrath need items to evolve?"
Li Meining waved her fist, "But it's okay, a little water stone is no match for me!"
Li Shuwen nodded. "Having confidence is a good thing."
Several one-horned rhinoceroses were drinking water by the lake. Li Meining observed them carefully, trying to find the strongest one among them.
Shinji glanced at her. "The one in the bush, eating berries, doesn't even have the most basic eyesight, yet she wants to become a great trainer."
Li Shuwen smiled knowingly. Shinji was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and had a sharp tongue. It would be good to have him and his little sister traveling together.
Not only is there no need to worry about Li Meining's safety, but it's also believed that Li Meining can learn a lot of Pokémon knowledge from Shinji.
Looking over, Li Meining saw that the one-horned rhinoceros eating berries was no different from the others drinking water.
Li Meining strained her eyes, trying to find something unique about this one-horned rhinoceros.
Li Shuwen sighed, "Look at this one-horned rhinoceros's horn, isn't it bigger and shinier? That's a sign that it often uses its horn to fight and achieve victory."
"And his eyes, even while eating berries, were constantly observing his surroundings, and there was wisdom in his eyes."
"The other one-horned rhinoceroses drinking water show their irritability."
The one-horned rhinoceros has a small brain and can only charge around recklessly, sometimes even forgetting why it started running in the first place.
If you are accidentally chased by a one-horned rhinoceros, as long as you disappear from its sight, the one-horned rhinoceros will quickly forget that it was chasing you.
"This one-horned rhinoceros is intelligent, and I believe it's worth taming."
Li Meining only heard the last sentence: "They are worth subduing."
He immediately took out a Field Ball and threw it at the One-Horned Rhino.
The ball didn't even flinch; the One-Horned Rhinoceros charged straight out.
The poorly made field ball was directly damaged by the struggle of the one-horned rhinoceros.
The one-horned rhinoceros looked at Li Meining, snorted defiantly.
Li Meining threw five field balls in a row, but the One-Horned Rhinoceros managed to break free each time.
The one-horned rhinoceros's gaze grew increasingly mocking as it turned and left with disdain.
Li Meining's face turned red...
Li Meining gritted her teeth, "Brother, the Wild Area only says you can't use Pokémon, it didn't say trainers can't personally capture Pokémon, right?"
Li Meining began to move her hands and feet.
Li Shuwen: "..."
Silence is an affirmation, and Li Meining chased after the one-horned rhinoceros.
They stood in front of the one-horned rhinoceros.
The one-horned rhinoceros stomped its foot, lowered its head, aimed its horn at Li Meining, and charged forward.
Li Meining got into position and grabbed the charging rhinoceros with one hand.
He twisted his body, lifted the one-horned rhinoceros off the ground, and slammed it hard onto the ground!
The one-horned rhinoceros's four legs twitched, but it had already lost consciousness.
