The trainer who wants to clear the game only wants to raise dragons.

Ziliu~

A burst of red light shot out.

Wrap the apple.

And quickly put it in.

Shaking~

The ball kept shaking.

The inward curl was suddenly broken free.

Fortunately, Bai Hong reacted quickly enough to catch the fruit-eating worm in time, otherwise it might have taken the opportunity to escape.

This guy is too clever. He pretended not to want to merge with the apple, but as soon as he was taken in, he immediately merged and resisted.

pop~

Kirachi clenched his fist.

He punched her with his comet fist.

The poor fruit-eating worm was killed just like that, its two eyes sticking out of the apple, bulging with circles, drooping backward.

Unbelievable! An apple with only an empty shell could withstand the damage from Comet Punch. Is this the benefit of fusion? It can share the base stats of the Fruit Eater.

pat~

Touch it again.

A red glow enveloped the fruit-eating worm.

They put it in.

This time, there was no suspense; Bai Hong successfully subdued the Fruit-Eating Worm. However, he was not satisfied with this and continued to search for moving apples, collecting as many as he could find.

The fruit-eating beetle hides inside apples. To avoid bird Pokémon, it habitually disguises itself as an apple, either hanging motionless on the tree or staying on the branch, using leaves as cover.

There are six wild apple trees nearby, none of them particularly tall. They would be hard to find unless you searched from the air, given their extremely remote location.

"Come out!"

Bai Hong released the Lizard King.

And of course, there's Gengar.

Sceptile can leap between branches, while Gengar will float, making it relatively easy to find Berrybugs.

"Catch the fruit-eating worms first, then pick the sour apples later. There are no sour apples in the secret realm." Bai Hong was riding on the back of the fire-breathing dragon, making it inconvenient to land because the soil on the ground was too soft.

The Lizard King just tried it.

Both feet are on the ground.

They immediately got hooked.

Fortunately, I managed to jump onto a tree branch in time.

The terrain in this area is a bit strange. At first glance, it seems safe and there is tender grass growing on the ground, but little do people know that there are hidden dangers underneath.

Only the area where the sour apple trees are rooted will not sink, like isolated islands in a swamp.

Just like that~

A glance at the Lizard King.

A sharp gaze locked onto it.

Click~

Knife up and down.

Easily cut off fruit-eating worms.

"Catch it!"

Because it was too sudden.

Bai Hong had no way to aim.

hey~

Watch me!

Gengar took the initiative and attacked first.

Use your mental energy to fix the apple in place.

"Good job!"

Bai Hong throws out a Poké Ball.

There was a snap.

The Poké Ball hit the apple.

It bounced upwards and burst forth with red light.

This time it was no problem either. He successfully subdued the second fruit-eating worm. Since it inhabited red sour apples, the color scheme was mostly the same, unless it inhabited a green sour apple.

Unripe, sour apples appear green, depending on whether fruit-eating insects are willing to live inside.

Jiejiejie~

Gengar conceals its form.

They appeared behind him in a cheeky manner.

The fruit-eating worm living inside the green, sour apple was startled. It was too late to escape; a shadow fist came flying towards its head, and a wave of dizziness awaited it.

Bai Hong skillfully threw the ball.

Gengar is there to retrieve the ball.

"The third one~"

Kira is counting them.

Subdue the fruit-eating worm.

It's simply too easy.

The fruit-eating insects disguised as apples trembled at the sight, wanting to escape but unable to, knowing they would be discovered with the slightest movement. This feeling was truly awful.

Furthermore, how could they be willing to give up the sour apple trees on which they depend for survival? What would they eat without sour apples?

Oh~

That apple is huge.

The Lizard King leaped over there.

Staring curiously at the very large, red, sour apple, its intuition told it that there must be fruit-eating worms inside.

Sure enough, the fruit-eating worm hiding inside couldn't control itself and took a bite of the fruit, which was noticed by the Lizard King.

The sound of gnawing.

Light and loud.

Therefore, it is not difficult to distinguish.

If you stick two eyes out from the top of an apple, even if you keep the stem, you will still be detected because the disguise has flaws.

"slap!"

Bai Hong gave the order.

He was worried that the Lizard King might use too much force and accidentally cut the very large, sour red apple in half, along with the fruit-eating worms, so he ordered it to use its slapping attack.

pop~

The Lizard King swung his elbow.

Tap the leaf with the back of your hand.

Even if she held back, she could still knock the fruit-eating worm unconscious; in any case, it was much gentler than before.

"The fourth one!"

Bai Hongshuang lost and received.

A bit over the top.

After putting away the Poké Ball.

They continued their search.

"Are there enough balls?"

"Sixteen more."

"Uh~"

Kira asked an unnecessary question.

In the past, Bai Hong would always carry twenty Poké Balls with him when he went out, so that he wouldn't run out of Poké Balls when he was catching Pokémon.

Judging from his posture, it seems he intends to collect all the fruit-eating insects. In any case, the secret realm has abundant tree fruit resources, so there's no need to worry about not being able to support a dozen or so fruit-eating insects. That's his confidence.

Before becoming the strongest champion, he had to consider whether he could afford to raise each Pokémon he caught and how much money he had left. He lived a difficult and frugal life.

Back then, I didn't even dare to consider Snorlax and Devourer. Pokémon that eat too much were ruled out, as were those with too long training periods. But now I don't have those concerns anymore.

Hey~

Geng ghost appears and disappears.

We caught another glittering fruit-eating worm.

As long as it lives in an unripe, green, sour apple, it will become a shiny fruit-eating worm. In fact, in terms of the fruit-eating worm itself, there is almost no difference between the ordinary and shiny ones.

Unripe, green, sour apples have extremely high acidity. Some fruit-eating insects are acid-loving and can therefore tolerate strong acidity.

Fruit~

The glittering fruit-eating worm tried to run away.
