Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: You Don't Even Look at Me!

"Souvenir Poké Ball?"

Hearing Alex's words, Emma and Lily were both unfamiliar with the term, but they were getting used to it.

After all, Alex often mentioned things that were new to them.

"Boss, what is this Poké Ball for? And this..."

A must-have item for a Trainer?

Lily took the delicate white Poké Ball from Alex's hands curiously, examining it without understanding its purpose.

But what Alex said just now is that this is for capturing Pokémon? And for Pokémon to rest?

Are you supposed to make a Pokémon enter this Poké Ball?

Just kidding, how can such a big Poké Ball fit a Charmander?

"It's hard to explain fully now, but I can tell you that a Pokémon is truly yours only if you capture it with a Poké Ball."

"Also, Charmander and Squirtle are small now, but as adults, they won't be as petite as they are now."

"So having them in Poké Balls is essential."

Alex explained to the two with a smile, knowing that the standard body heights of Blastoise and Charizard are no less than that of an adult male, and this is still an average size.

If raised well with good nutrition, they will only grow bigger, and it would be cumbersome to take them out otherwise.

"But how is this used?" Emma asked suspiciously, subconsciously trusting Alex's words.

"The Poké Ball in your hands is empty; try throwing it at your Pokémon."

"..."

Emma and Lily exchanged puzzled looks but decided to try throwing the Premier Ball at Charmander and Squirtle.

In the next moment, the eyes of the two girls widened in awe.

The moment the Premier Ball touched the two Pokémon, it opened instantly, wrapping Charmander and Squirtle in red light, and then they were absorbed into the Premier Ball.

This was an incredibly astonishing scene, leaving Lily with her mouth agape in disbelief.

What just happened?

After the Pokémon were absorbed, the indicator light in the center of the Premier Ball slowly flashed.

One, two, three...

Ding~

After a crisp ding, the Premier Ball fell to the ground and settled down.

"It seems to have worked smoothly, which indicates that Squirtle and Charmander have fully accepted you."

Seeing this scene, Alex remained calm and smiled.

"No... Boss, what is this?!!"

"Ah, well..."

But clearly, the two girls were far from calm.

This is so strange, isn't it? A ball actually contained two such large creatures?

Is this some kind of magic?

"Don't make such a fuss; the Poké Ball works like that."

Alex looked at the two and raised his eyebrows. Indeed, Poké Ball technology is really shocking to people in this world...

After all, it's not scientific at all. A living creature can turn into light and fit into such a small Poké Ball. Who would believe it?

"But this is too..."

Emma looked at the Premier Ball on the ground, still not quite grasping the concept.

What kind of technology is this? Bio-compression? Or warp technology? It's so implausible.

"Boss, are you really an alien?"

After a while, Lily calmed her turbulent heart and looked at Alex with suspicion.

"You are the aliens, and your whole family is aliens."

Alex replied humorously.

"It doesn't seem to be." Lily blinked and tapped Alex's face with her small hand. The body temperature was normal, and the skin texture was normal.

"Miss Lily, although you are a guest, I still want to remind you that it's not polite to touch someone without their consent."

"Touching doesn't make me lose anything. Do you know how many boys in school want to touch my hand, and I don't even bother to look at them!"

Lily pouted and muttered, really stingy.

"Hmmmm." Alex agreed.

What was that supposed to mean? What do you mean?

Seeing Lily staring defiantly at Alex, what was with that perfunctory expression and tone?

Miss Lily was almost named school belle this year, you know? Do you know how long the line is of people chasing after me?

You don't know, you just despise me! You don't even look directly at me!

How annoying!

"I still can't imagine, boss, did you research this black technology yourself?"

Emma didn't have a chance to intervene as her best friend examined the Premier Ball, and after pressing the button in the center, the Premier Ball opened again.

The white light flew out, Squirtle reappeared, and Emma looked at the Premier Ball in her hand.

Wow, this is too amazing, isn't it?

"No, you'll find out more later."

Alex shook his head. Certain technologies in the Pokémon world are indeed too advanced for this world.

Poké Ball technology, space backpack technology, Poké Ball teleportation technology, and more.

After all, the technology in the Pokémon world is very advanced, especially the ultra-large metropolis in Ultra Space.

The humans of the Ultra Metropolis even used technology to deprive the Ultra Necrozma of its light and suppressed it in the Ultra Metropolis Tower.

What is this concept?

That's Necrozma, the absolute pinnacle of the Pokémon world!

But it is precisely because the ancestors of the metropolis people took away the light of Necrozma and imprisoned it, which caused the world of the metropolis to lose its light, cutting off its vitality and bringing it to the brink of extinction.

It can be seen as poetic justice, but unfortunately, it is their descendants who bear this sin.

"But with this, you can really carry Charmanders with you."

Seeing that Alex was reluctant to talk about it, Emma and Lily didn't press further. The mysterious shop and the mysterious owner had already become a part of their understanding.

Lily put Trapinch into another Poké Ball to capture it and then released her two Pokémon, smiling with satisfaction.

Seeing the two girls were very satisfied, Alex also smiled.

It was a good start.
