Pokémon: Master Pokémon has a fish-frying system.

Chapter 54 "Thunder God"

Let's set off! Hoenn Continent!

With Volcarona, a master-level mainstay in battle, returning to the team, Lu An felt even more confident about the Hoenn expedition.

That day, he boarded the last ferry and headed towards Hoenn.

After enduring the long torment of the waves, Lu An finally set foot on the land of Hoenn.

At the port of Shuijing City, Lu An, carrying a simple bag, looked around.

During his missions as an investigator, Lu An has undertaken many cross-regional missions, and he has visited the Hoenn continent quite a few times.

Merced City was a place he frequently stopped to rest.

It is one of the largest cities in the Hoenn region, known as "the place where the land stops and the sea begins".

More importantly, the Pokémon Association base in the Hoenn region is also located in Lilycove City, and he will go to the Pokémon Association to register his information next.

Don't get me wrong, it's not like Ash logging in with new trainer information.

Before setting off, he contacted Lancelot and asked him to get him a temporary Hoenn region search assistance warrant.

He wants to announce to the Hoenn Pokémon Association that he, the investigator, has arrived in Hoenn.

Logically speaking, since he was still suspended from his duties at this time, he should not have the so-called Hoenn region assistance search warrant.

However, this is only in theory.

After Lance told the old men that Lu An's purpose in coming to Hoenn was to cure Eevee, the old men, who had been making a lot of noise, fell silent.

After all, Ibrahimovic's importance to Lu An is self-evident. If they do not agree to give Lu An this temporary pass, then the Maslow tragedy may be repeated on them.

Therefore, after smoothing things over with the old men and saying a few nice words, Du successfully helped Lu An obtain a temporary certificate.

Lu An wiped away his tears; Du Zhen had truly borne too much for him...

In short, with this badge, he can access information about the three legendary beasts from the investigators and the official information of the Hoenn Pokémon Association.

This made his actions in Hoenn much easier.

Moreover, there is another Pokémon of his in the Hoenn region that is on a mission, so perhaps this trip to Hoenn will allow him to bring it back.

Lu An sorted out his thoughts, then slung his bag over his shoulder and headed toward the Pokémon Association base.

The documents that Du had obtained for him were very useful. After registering his information, Lu An found some information about the Three Sacred Beasts through official channels.

"Suicune, the embodiment of the North Wind, is suspected of having appeared on a remote island in the south..."

"Raiko, one of the Three Holy Beasts, was spotted near Route 110 in Slateport City and was battling someone. Entei, another of the Three Holy Beasts, was suspected to be accompanying him..."

"..."

"It's unclear why the three legendary beasts have appeared on the Hoenn continent, but it's suspected to be related to the whereabouts of their guardian deity—Ho-Oh..."

Lu An looked at the information in the official report and nodded.

With both pieces of information corroborated, it seems that Shui Jing's intelligence is indeed quite substantial. However, there is still not much information about Emperor Yan, only some scattered bits and pieces.

In contrast, Raikou's whereabouts have been sighted more often, which confirms that the three legendary beasts are indeed currently appearing in Hoenn.

Lu An looked at the second message.

"It seems that Lei Gong and Yan Di are together, and Lei Gong is currently fighting someone?"

"How come these two best buddies are teaming up again? As one of the three legendary beasts, why does Suicune always act so differently?"

"Moreover, every message ends with the three sacred beasts disappearing without a trace, making it impossible to pinpoint their exact location."

Although there was no more accurate eyewitness information, Lu An decided to go to Kaina City to take a look.

Perhaps we'll have more accurate information once we get there.

……

But sometimes things just don't go as planned.

Lu An, who had just stepped out of the Pokémon Association, was astonished to see a four-legged Pokémon resembling a saber-toothed tiger standing not far from the association.

Look at that yellow fur, strong limbs, and lightning-like tail, is that you, Thunder Drum?

"Hey, isn't that the Thunder God?"

"My husband, that's the Thunder God! My husband, that's the Thunder God!"

"Holy crap, it really is Lei Gong, one of the Three Divine Beasts!"

It wasn't until he heard the exclamations of passersby that Lu An snapped out of his daze.

The Pokémon with a pair of fierce fangs in front of you is none other than Raikou, one of the three legendary beasts and a member of Ho-Oh's guard!

Lu An suddenly remembered the information that Shui Jing had given him, in which he said that Lei Gong had appeared in Shuijing City and Kaina City.

However, the information in the association only indicates that Raikou appeared in Kaina City.

He initially thought that Shui Jing's source was wrong.

It seems that the information from Shuijing was not wrong; Raigong is still in Shuijing City!

Lu An thought that instead of aimlessly searching for Emperor Yan in the Hoenn Continent, he could try to communicate with Raikou and find Emperor Yan.

However, just as Lu An had this thought, the trainers in Lilycove City who had witnessed Raikou went crazy.

You should know that this is the Pokémon Association base, and the area around here is full of Pokémon trainers.

How many trainers can remain calm when facing legendary Pokémon?

If I were fortunate enough to subdue a level two god, then...

With this thought in mind, countless Pokémon emerged from the Poké Balls.

"Lucky Kappa, high-five surprise attack!"

"Hunting Swallowtail Butterfly, Paralysis Powder!"

"Flamingo, Sonic Punch!"

"Lazy ape...Lazy ape, what are you doing out here!"

Except for one trainer who used a lazy monkey, almost all the trainers who saw Raikou were trying to defeat it using various methods.

"Roar!"

Faced with the onslaught, this legendary Pokémon roared, and the cloud-like hair behind it stood on end.

"Boom!"

Dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky, and then countless bolts of lightning struck down from nowhere, hitting every Pokémon.

100,000 volts!

Raikou's attack was extremely fierce, leaving most of the Pokémon present completely bewildered.

"Roar!"

Raikou glanced disdainfully at all the trainers present, then jumped onto the roof beam and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute, Thunder God!"

"Don't run away!"

Upon seeing Raikou flee, the trainers who still had fighting power gave chase.

Inside the association, many staff members rushed out to try and calm the chaos caused by the appearance of the Thunder God.

However, upon seeing Lei Gong leap onto the roof beam and disappear, Lu An frowned slightly and did not rush to set off.

He had a very strange feeling about that thunder god just now.

It's not that it possesses overwhelming strength that ordinary Pokémon can't match, but rather that it's too weak.

Yes, it's not that it's too strong, but rather that it's too weak.

Even if Pikachu, a Champion-level Pokémon, had unleashed that 100,000 volt attack, it shouldn't have only this much power.

Did Raikou go easy on these Pokémon?

Or is it...?

No, we can't hesitate any longer. Even if we have some doubts or guesses, we have to find that Thunder God first.

With that in mind, Lu An set off in the direction where Lei Gong had disappeared.

Shortly after Lu An and the others chased after Raikou, a chubby guy wearing a mask, sunglasses, and a Hawaiian shirt walked out of the Pokémon Association base.

The guy gave a meaningful smile in the direction where Lei Gong disappeared.

"Hehehe."
