Dark Childhood: Starting from Arceus

And it's no wonder.

When he first arrived in the town, he found a prop shop near the Elf Center and inquired about it.

According to his understanding, in this world, except for wound medicine, tree fruits, and Poké Balls, most other items, such as various stones related to evolution, and portable items that can improve combat ability, are difficult to buy.

Even, when Lu Fan asked the clerk about certain items, the clerk had an expression that he had never heard of.

...... You must know that this kind of prop shop set up near the elf center with a blue roof is a unified chain store in the entire Sinnoh region where Lu Fan is currently located.

If one of the clerks in this kind of store has never heard of a Pokémon item, it can be assumed that 99% of the humans in this area have never heard of it.

...... All in all, many of the items that weren't very difficult to obtain in the original game can actually be frighteningly rare in this world.

The

Leaf Stone, which allows some Pokémon to evolve, is one of them.

"What's the matter, Ash, I don't think you have any Pokémon that need to evolve with Leaf Stones?"

Lu Fan's voice aroused Xiao Gang's doubts.

This made Lu Fan feel a little speechless.

Not now, can't I stay tuned?

But in fact, Xiao Gang's idea is more in line with the mainstream.

The vast majority of people in this world, even if they know that the Evolution Stone is a rare prop, will not have any special thoughts about it when they cannot use it for the time being.

Not to mention looking for it, even if the prop is in front of you, if it is a little more difficult to obtain, you will basically give up.

In fact, the organizers of this gorgeous contest are also like this.

They wrapped the ribbons that the victors could obtain around the Leaf Stone, completely treating the Leaf Stone as an ordinary ornament.

There is no mention of Ye Zhishi in the poster, obviously not taking this as a gimmick that can attract contestants.

Lu Fan had also stared at the ribbon in the poster for a while before he was finally convinced that the ornament was Ye Zhishi's.

Something suddenly occurred to him.

"By the way, Xiaoguang has already won two gorgeous contests before, right?

“...... In this way, the first time seems to be true, but the second time it seems to be an ordinary gem. "

Xiaoguang tilted his head, his cheek resting on his right index finger in thought.

After a while, she took two ribbons out of her bag and placed them on her left and right hands.

"It was thanks to Bogaman's active performance. "

Xiaoguang had a nostalgic expression on his face and smiled at the same time. Bogaman also crossed his head and waist, with a triumphant expression.

Lu Fan was stupid.

The ribbon lying on Xiaoguang's left hand was tied to a sky-blue stone.

There was also a snowflake pattern in the middle of the stone.

It was clearly the Ice Stone.

Although Lu Fan vaguely remembered that the Ice Stone seemed to be a prop that was added later generations, this was already in front of him, and it was the right thing to do to modify his cognition appropriately.

"Why、Why do you look like you want, I won't give it to you!".

Lu Fan's hungry appearance was really a little scary, and Xiaoguang immediately withdrew his hands and protected the ribbon on his chest.

Seeing this, Lu Fan, who understood that he had made a gaffe, hurriedly restrained his expression and asked calmly

"Xiaoguang, can you give me this?".

"Why?".

"Because Hikaru doesn't need a Pokémon that evolves with Ice Stones, does he?"

Hearing this, Xiao Guang was speechless.

This stupid thing really comes out of your mouth.

If it's ordinary, nothing commemorative, it's okay, and with her friendship with Ash, it's not that she can't send it directly.

But this Ice Stone is different...... Ice Stone, to be precise, tied with a ribbon.

Now Ash's request is like saying to the champion who has won both a medal and a trophy in a certain event, "Give me the trophy".

While a medal is all it takes to prove a champion, a trophy is also part of the honour.

The same goes for this Ice Stone.

It was a joint effort between Xiaoguang and Bogaman, and this honor could not be easily given up.

Bogaman probably thinks the same way, and the evidence is that at the moment it is constantly using the skill "peck" on Lu Fan.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, Pikachu, come and save me!".

But Pikachu just waved his hand and shook his head, looking helpless.

Xiaoguang didn't mean to stop Bogaman in the slightest, after all, this was completely the fault of the person who spoke nonsense.

What's more—

"Speaking of which, Ash, you don't have one, do you? A Pokémon that needs to evolve with Ice Stones. "

It's a reasonable counterattack, but Ash has been prepared for it

"As far as I planned, it should be soon. "

That's right, according to his reservation, a total of nine Ievees need to be subdued.

One of them retains its original form, while the other eight evolve into different forms, eventually gathering the Ibu family.

The Leaf Stone is a necessary item for Eevee to evolve into Eevee, and the Ice Stone is prepared for Eevee's evolution into Ice Eevee.

Of course, it is better to be able to directly capture the evolved form, but according to the results of Lu Fan's inquiry, there are almost no cases of the evolved form of Eevee being witnessed in this world, so it is necessary to prepare for the worst.

However, Lu Fan's statement failed to convince Xiaoguang, but it was better to say that if he could be persuaded in this way, there would be a ghost.

It's the same with Bogaman, who now has a longer beak and "pecks" harder.

"Death, death, Pikachu!".

At this time, Xiao Gang ran to talk to the big sister, and Pikachu followed him, biting the energy cube in small bites.

Both turned their backs to Lu Fan, as if they were "I don't know this guy".

Seeing this, Xiaoguang sighed and said to Bogaman:

"Bogaman, it's already okay. "

So Bogaman finally shut up, but he still stared at Lu Fan with a fierce expression.

"'There will be' something, how can there be such a predestination. "

"It's true, I'm willing to trade my Thunder Stone for it. "

Lu Fan took out a thunder stone from his bag, which was originally intended to be given to Pikachu to evolve into a thunder cube, but it was unwilling, so it kept it in the bag.

Having said that, the moment he took it out, Lu Fan regretted it, because he suddenly remembered that the Ibu family also included Reibu, who needed to evolve with the Thunder Stone.

Fortunately, Xiaoguang had no intention of exchanging with Lu Fan at all.

"Really, that's not the problem at all. "

Xiaoguang complained about Lu Fan's incomprehension.

For her and Bogaman, the Ice Stone is not just an evolution item, but a treasure that holds important memories.

If you want to say under what circumstances Xiaoguang is willing to give up this treasure from the bottom of his heart-

She thought of a solution.
