“Yes, it will evolve sooner or later. The sooner it evolves into Alakazam, the sooner it can adapt to the Alakazam form,” said Shigeru.
For Kadabra to evolve into Alakazam, it needs to perform a link exchange. By linking and exchanging, the cells in its body are stimulated, and it can evolve into Alakazam.
“Alright, let’s trade again in Vermilion City.” Sabrina didn’t object. She also planned to train Kadabra to become Alakazam, so it didn’t matter whether it evolved early or late.
Since early evolution has advantages, let's evolve early.
"Kira!"
"Kira!"
Both Kadabra looked bewildered. If the goal was to evolve them, why bother with training? Wasn't that redundant?
...!
Two days later.
Shigeru and Sabrina rode their bikes to Koba City.
Koroba City is an important seaport in the Kanto region, located at the southern entrance to the sea, receiving merchant ships from all over the world, and auctions are also popular here.
Little Elf Center.
Having agreed to let each other evolve their Kadabra, Gary and Sabrina handed over the other Pokémon to Nurse Joy for treatment, leaving Kadabra with them, and went to the switchboard inside the Pokémon Center.
Sabrina and Gary placed the Poké Ball containing Kadabra on the slot of the machine, then pressed the switch to activate the exchange. Two beams of blue light shot out from the port, hitting the Poké Ball, which instantly disappeared.
Next, the classic Poké Ball switching scene appeared on the switch screen, the port emitted blue light again, and the Poké Ball reappeared on the slot.
"Exchange successful!"
The switch emitted a beep.
Gary and Sabrina exchanged a glance and simultaneously opened the Poké Balls in the slots.
"Come out, Yongjila."
The two said in unison.
Great! Great!
"Kira!"
"Kira!"
After the two Kadabra emerged from their Poké Balls, the power of the exchange activated their cells, instantly triggering an evolutionary reaction, and a dazzling white light enveloped the two Pokémon.
Instantly, a group of trainers at the Pokémon Center were drawn to the light of evolution.
The two Kadabra's bodies became thinner and longer. Their originally thick and long tails had disappeared, replaced by a thin, old-looking Alakazam with two long golden whiskers on its muzzle. Alakazam's facial features were no different from Kadabra's, except that the five-pointed star mark on its forehead had disappeared, and its forehead was slightly protruding, which meant it had grown a brain.
"Hu!"
"Hu!"
The two Alakazam looked at each other, both having successfully evolved, and felt their mental energy multiplying.
"Alright, we can switch back now," Xiao Mao said.
"Ah."
The two players retrieved Alakazam into its Poké Ball, placed it back on the Switch, and swapped their Alakazam back together.
Chapter 40: Kuroba City
After exchanging back their Alakazam, the two released their Alakazam to examine it closely.
Sabrina communicated with her Alakazam using telepathy, asking about any changes in Alakazam.
Gary doesn't have psychic powers, but with his Eye of Insight, he can see Alakazam's attributes perfectly clearly.
[Elf: Alakazam]
[Attribute: Super Power]
【Level: 20】
[Potential: Quasi-king]
[Characteristic: Mental Strength (Possesses a trained mind that does not flinch in the face of an opponent's attacks. Unwavering even intimidation.)]
[Skills: Teleportation, Telekinesis, Illusion Ray, Reflection Barrier, Miracle Eye, Immobilization.]
【Intimacy Level: 180 (Maximum 255)】
After Alakazam evolves, it awakens the skill "Immobilize".
This skill is pretty good; it can seal one of the opponent's skills. Even if a Pokémon has many skills, it will feel awkward to fight if its signature skill is blocked.
“Young lady, may I exchange my Rada for your Alakazam?” At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit walked over and asked.
Xiao Mao's eyebrows twitched wildly. The other party was treating Sabrina like she wasn't human, trading Raticate for Alakazam, as if Sabrina was some NPC in the game who always traded rare Pokémon for trash Pokémon.
“Sorry, Alakazam is my first Pokémon, and I don’t intend to trade it,” Sabrina coldly refused.
Seeing that Naz refused, the middle-aged man in the suit looked at Xiao Mao.
Before the other party could speak, Xiao Mao spoke up, "Uncle, there's no need to trade Rattata, which is a Pokémon that can be found everywhere. We're not kids."
"...Goodbye." The middle-aged man in the suit had indeed been hoping to find a bargain, wanting to see if Natsume and Shigeru were unaware of the value of his goods, but he never expected to make a fool of himself.
After Alakazam completes its evolution.
Xiao Mao and Na Zi found a well-known restaurant nearby for dinner. Since they were traveling, they naturally wanted to try the local specialties of each city.
Naza had no objections and obediently followed Xiao Mao's arrangements.
Finally, the two chose a nice seafood restaurant.
"Shigeru, when are you planning to challenge the gym?" Sabrina asked.
Gary's main purpose in coming to Vermilion City was to obtain the Gym Badge. Now that he has arrived in Vermilion City, it's time to start challenging the Gym.
"No rush. We've come all this way to the beach, let's enjoy ourselves for a few days. Oh, and let's buy a camera later and take some photos to remember this place. Nazi, you're so pretty, you'll definitely look great in photos," Xiao Mao said.
"Oh."
Sabrina originally wanted to ask about challenging the dojo, but after being praised by Shigeru, she didn't know what to say. However, Sabrina was still a little happy to hear Shigeru say that she was pretty.
After lunch.
Xiao Mao bought a camera at a nearby store and then took his pet to the nearby beach to rest.
Naza also changed into a swimsuit from the Dead Reservoir, giving Xiao Mao a good eye feast.
Don't let Naz's young age of 15 fool you; she's already blossoming into a beautiful young woman and is quite accomplished. In a few more years, she'll definitely be a top-tier mature woman.
"Xiao Mao, do I look good like this?" Sabrina asked with a slight smile.
"Of course you look good. You look so good that I can't even remember how cold you used to be," Xiao Mao said.
"Let's not talk about the past." Naza didn't want to bring up her dark history, since her personality split was caused by her own cultivation mistakes.
"Okay, then I'll take your picture." Xiao Mao took out the camera he had just bought. As a successor to Edison Chen, a mature man must always carry it with him.
Although Nazi is aloof, she is still a girl at the prime of her youth and naturally loves beauty. Even though she has never been a model, she knows what poses are appropriate for a photoshoot.
Nazja has such a great natural look; even with Xiao Mao's average photography skills, he still managed to make her look incredibly beautiful.
"Wow! Where did this girl come from? She's so beautiful." The two were having a great time when a discordant voice came from behind them, and a blond, burly man walked over shirtless.
Xiao Mao felt dissatisfied immediately, knowing at a glance that the other party was not a kind person.
Moreover, the blond-haired man ignored Xiao Mao and walked directly towards Naz. Xiao Mao instinctively stepped forward to block the blond-haired man's path.
"Little boy, get out of the way. I want to get to know this beautiful young lady," the blond man said impatiently.
"She's my friend. I hope you'll behave yourself. If you know what's good for you, get lost," Xiao Mao warned.
"What... a baby can have a girlfriend already? You're not even fully grown yet," the blond man mocked.
Xiao Mao was furious. He was only 10 years old and his hair hadn't even fully grown yet, but as a man, how could he allow a strange man to flirt with his female companion?
"I'm still a baby, and I've already found a girlfriend. When you were my age, you probably hadn't even held a girl's hand," Xiao Mao retorted sarcastically.
"You brat, you're asking for it." The blond giant wasn't exactly known for his good temper either. As if Xiao Mao had hit a nerve, he immediately threw a punch at Xiao Mao.
Xiao Mao was not in a hurry at all. He reached out and grabbed the man's wrist, then performed a backflip and an over-the-shoulder throw, sending the blond giant flying.
Even Naza, who was about to lend a hand, was so shocked that she opened her mouth wide. She never expected that such a thin and weak Xiao Mao could throw that big sweaty guy out.
"Kid, you...!" The blond giant was also a little stunned. Although he wasn't injured, he could tell that Xiao Mao was a trained fighter and had terrifying strength.
Gary has been competing with Ash since childhood, but he doesn't have the physique of a super rookie, so he can't be Ash's formidable rival.
Furthermore, Gary had also studied under the Fighting Master Asahi. Asahi is a man who can fight Fighting-type Pokémon in melee combat. As his apprentice, Gary's fighting skills are quite high, and most adults are no match for him.
"You wait, I'll remember you." The blond giant wasn't stupid; he'd been in street fights before. He knew Xiao Mao was a trained fighter as soon as they exchanged blows, so he left after uttering those threats.
"Xiao Mao, are we just going to let him go like this?" Nazi asked.
What do you mean by that? Do you want to turn the other person into a doll?
This isn't the Goldenrod Gym; if you did that, you wouldn't get arrested by the police.
“Although he didn’t have good intentions, he didn’t take any real action. A lesson is enough. Let’s continue playing,” Xiao Mao said.
"Ah."
Naza also forgot about the unpleasantness from earlier and joined Shigeru in enjoying the nearby water recreation facilities.
The two continued their stroll until dusk before stopping.
During this time, Xiao Mao discovered that Na Zi wasn't as cold as she seemed. When she participated in exciting activities, she still felt thrilled and happy, just like any other girl.
The two also chose to have dinner at a barbecue restaurant that evening, since they had spent the day having fun and eating well.
Chapter 41: Vermilion Gym
"Xiao Mao, thank you, I had a lot of fun today." Nazi sincerely thanked Xiao Mao as she accepted the skewers he offered.
This was the first time in her life that Sabrina had been so happy. Although it was very close to Vermilion City, Sabrina had never been there before, and this was the first time she had ever seen the ocean.
"Just be happy."
