The three of them headed towards the Sakuragi Research Institute. The journey was not short and it would take another few minutes to walk.
Being bored, ash couldn't help but took out the illustrated book again because his hands were itching.
"I'm already at level 2H now, what do I need to do to upgrade to level 10H?"
ash thought about it and shouted, "I can beat ten Team Rockets!" This
is obviously much higher-level than "I can beat two Team Rockets".
"Beep. 10H Trainer Request: Capture 12 Pokémon and obtain 8 badges."
The illustration replied promptly.
"8 pieces?"
ash frowned. He only had 3 badges now and the road ahead was very long.
But he has already captured 7 Pokémon, and it looks like he will be able to accomplish that goal even faster on this side.
Maybe if you go to the Sakuragi Research Institute, you can get a new Pokémon?
As we all know, the research institute is where you can get Pokémon tickets.
Bored on the way, the three curiously switched the atlas interface to unlock achievements, which still showed that 3 achievements had been unlocked.
[The Road to Movie King], [Food Chain], and [Longevity Bond].
The one at the top is [Pokémon King]. According to it, if he unlocks all the achievements below, he can become the so-called "Pokémon King".
Damn it, he clearly wants to be a Pokémon Master!
However, maybe because Xiaozhi's level has been raised to the 2H realm, this time there are several new achievement prompts below.
"[Renaissance]Achievement: Obtain a Fossil Pokémon."
"[Egg-Laying Rooster]Achievement: Obtain a Pokémon Egg and successfully hatch it."
"[Great Onmyoji]Achievement: Capture a machop (specify gender: female), capture a Gardevoir (specify gender: male), capture"
There are a few Pokémon in the back that ash has never heard of, which looks very mysterious.
"It's very troublesome."
brock's eyes were deeply wrinkled.
misty also came up and took a closer look. Although the illustrated book gave several achievement information, almost none of them could be completed in a short time.
"It seems that this is the only one left."
She dragged the screen to the end, and ash quickly took a closer look.
"[Once a teacher, always a father (level 1)]: Teach a newbie how to properly catch Pokémon."
"Teach a newbie how to catch Pokémon?"
ash pondered for a moment, frowning. He was still a newbie who knew nothing a few weeks ago.
But he is now a man who owns 7 Pokémon after all. Although excluding those captured without combat, it seems that there are only two left: Toolbird and Bulbasaur. It's
not a big problem. He knows how to capture Pokémon.
"I've decided. I'm going to go to the Sakuragi Research Institute and see if there's anything I can teach the newbies. I want to become a teacher for a day!"
ash waved his thumb and led brock and misty to that direction.
Sakuragi Research Institute was located in a marginal area of Vermilion City, and the house price was neither high nor low.
In front of here is a quaint little villa, which serves as the main building of the institute and is used for daily office operations and communication with outsiders.
Behind the villa is a large artificial green park, which is used for the Pokémon in the research institute to rest and live.
Although the size of the area is far from comparable to the backyard of the Oak Research Institute in Pallet Town.
After all, the latter is located in the countryside, the house price is not high, but the area is still very spacious, and it will not feel crowded even if you put a hundred Pokémon in it.
The door was not closed, and the three of them walked in without thinking and came to a room that looked like a public living room.
They had already made arrangements in advance.
At this moment, there were three people sitting in the hall, all wearing white academic research coats, looking like scholars.
The leader was a middle-aged man with brown hair and a square face, but he looked very friendly and amiable.
It was the person they were handing over to this time, the director of the Sakuragi Research Institute.
Dr. Sakuragi.
It is said that he was half a student of Dr. Oak in his early years, and his knowledge and research were highly recognized by Dr. Oak.
In autumn, Dr. Oak and Masaaki often set up a rack in the backyard to eat plump Kanto crabs.
In the summer, Dr. Oak would often eat meaty and fragrant Ho-en lobsters with Dr. Sakuragi in the backyard.
After all, the ones we caught all had red shells.
We are also old friends.
"Finally you're here! Let me introduce you. These are my two assistants, Pokémon graduate students, Kikurai and Renji, and I'm Professor Sakuragi. I'm Professor Oak's fan, so I'm half a disciple."
Professor Sakuragi smiled and held out his hand.
ash did not dare to be negligent and immediately stretched out his hand to shake hands in response.
"My name is ash, and I am currently training with my Pikachu to become a Pokémon Master."
"I'm brock, the trainer of pewter Gym."
"I'm Misty, the Cerulean Gym trainer."
After everyone exchanged greetings, the gentle woman with long blue hair, Kikurai, and the science guy with messy yellow hair and glasses, Renji, also came over curiously.

According to Professor Oak, the person who came this time is the best trainer in their village.
But now, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a novice trainer.
You know, Professor Oak is a great man, so he wouldn't do anything without a purpose.
"Haha, Mr. Oak has been praising you to me. I wonder how long Xiaozhi has been a trainer?"
Sakura asked tentatively.
"Three weeks."
Xiaozhi answered subconsciously, but quickly added:
"It's the third anniversary. Today is exactly the third anniversary, hehe."
He suddenly realized that he now represented the face of Pallet Town, and aah immediately sneered with his eyes closed, exaggerating his work experience.
Three weeks is almost equal to one month, one month is equal to half a year, half a year is not much different from a year, and one year is not much different from three years,
so 3 weeks = 3 years, which makes sense logically.
After all, ability is the most important thing!
Dr. Sakuragi did not doubt him. After all, Dr. Oak would not lie to him. Then he smiled slowly and said:
"It's been three years, you look so young."
Is it true that people in palet Town become trainers 3 years in advance?
Or has this boy never grown up?
I really want to see if he will still look this young in 20 years.
After a round of greetings, everyone finally got down to business.
"As I mentioned on the phone before, there seems to be a certain wild Pokémon living inside our research institute that is hard to detect. It likes to cause trouble on a daily basis, but it's nothing serious and not a big deal."
Professor Sakuragi scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly:
"Maybe it's just lonely and wants to attract people's attention. I quite like this feeling."
"It's just that our Sakuragi Research Institute will soon be officially open to the public. This is a port city with a lot of people and noise. It doesn't matter to us, after all, we are used to it. But the guests who come here may not like this environment. Once we offend these people, it will be troublesome."
"Besides, we have the most outrageous news media in Vermilion City. Once they smell something unusual here, they will make up stories and magnify small things infinitely, then it will be a big problem."
After all, we still have to eat and live our lives. The research institute cannot go bankrupt because of such a small matter.
Hearing this, ash and the other two nodded cautiously.
They had only been there for less than a day, but they had already experienced the horror of the Vermilion Leaf City news media.
"So our mission is to find this Pokémon? I understand."
ash's face lit up. Another way of understanding it is to let him tame this troublemaker.
blood money.
"Then I'll leave it to you. The three of us have to go out for something later, so I'll leave everything here to you, ash."
Sakuragi smiled helplessly and patted ash on the shoulder.
They are researchers with low combat capabilities, so they can only entrust outsiders with the task in a rather awkward manner.
"Of course, I won't bother you in vain. If you can really solve this paranormal incident, I will give you three tickets for the St. Ann's cruise ship that will sail the day after tomorrow."
Before leaving, Dr. Sakuragi added one more sentence.
Hearing this, the three people's eyes lit up. They were waiting for you to say this!
Not long after, Professor Sakuragi and the other two left.
In the huge Sakuragi Research Institute, only Satoshi and his two companions were left.
They were working out a strategy on how to lure out that troublesome Pokémon.
"If there is another newbie at this time, I can tame the troublemaker and complete the illustrated achievement at the same time."
ash suddenly sighed.
Not long after he uttered this sentence, he heard a voice coming from the gate.
"Hey, hey, hey, is chloe here? I'm here to play with you!"
The voice sounds rather childish, so he should not be very old.
When the person walked into the room, the three of them took a closer look.
This person was a young man with short black hair, a few small curls and dark skin, even similar to brock's. He looked confused when he saw the three people.
Judging from his age, he should be about the same age as ash.
"Who are you?"
"Let me ask you first, are you a trainer?"
ash's eyes widened as if they were bells, and he asked first.
"Well, I have to wait a year before I can claim the Pokémon."
The dark-skinned boy answered subconsciously.
Hearing this, ash's eyes suddenly became brighter than ever before, and his tone sank.
"It's decided to be you. I want to be your father. I want to teach you how to catch Pokémon!"
