"Love is like a gust of wind, it blows and then it leaves."
Ye Feng hummed the lyrics of Alan's song.
Suddenly, he realized that Alan's lyrics, which he hadn't paid much attention to before, now seemed very profound!
Look, this lyric, wasn't it his exact situation?
Get it done and leave.
"So good, Mitzuko."
His mind was still replaying the pleasure Mitzuko had given him.
Unknowingly, he had already entered the Verdanturf Town forest.
Verdanturf Town forest, although a large forest, due to its location, there were many people in the forest, playing and picnicking here.
But even more were catching Pokémon!!
"Hahaha!! I caught it! I caught a Weedle!!!"
At this moment, not far ahead, a little boy excitedly looked at the Poké Ball in his hand and exclaimed.
The other children, seeing this, looked a bit envious.
After all, because of Ye Feng's Rayquaza, Weedles were now hard to find in Verdanturf Town forest.
"Alas, but this is already the 345th Weedle I've caught."
The little boy who caught the Weedle suddenly became dejected again.
If he hadn't seen Ye Feng's Weedle evolve into Rayquaza with his own eyes, he would never have believed that a mere Weedle could evolve into a legendary god-tier Pokémon.
Ye Feng walked past them.
At first, the boys didn't notice him at all, as Verdanturf Town forest was always bustling with people.
But Ye Feng's aura was special, and one of the boys, by chance, caught a glimpse of him and recognized him.
"Ye Feng! Is that you, Ye Feng?!"
Hearing Ye Feng's name, the little boys immediately surrounded him, all very excited to see him.
Ye Feng: "Yes, I am Ye Feng."
Upon hearing his direct confirmation, the little boys were first excited, then they asked, "Brother Ye Feng, can we ask you something?"
Ye Feng: "What is it?"
"It's about what kind of Weedle can evolve into Rayquaza?!"
"This, shiny ones have a higher chance."
"Shiny?!"
Hearing this, the little boys looked troubled.
"But we've been catching bugs for so long, let alone catching a shiny one, we haven't even encountered one."
Ye Feng remembered that shiny Weedles were golden.
"But, I remember Brother Ye Feng's Weedle wasn't shiny either?"
The one who asked this question was the boy who had caught 345 Weedles and hadn't given up.
"Mine was indeed not, but it was the child of a shiny and a normal one."
Ye Feng continued to talk nonsense with a serious expression: "Anyway, this kind of thing depends on luck, you can't rush it."
The little boys still had questions, but when they looked up again, Ye Feng was already gone like a gust of wind.
Ye Feng didn't want to continue answering the questions of a few brats, so he continued on his way. Along the way, in Verdanturf Town forest, he encountered a Pokémon protection area.
Although it was called a protection area, it was far inferior to the Safari Zone in Kanto.
There were very few Pokémon.
Ye Feng didn't have much interest and simply passed through.
After that, he also arrived at a flower shop run by three sisters in the forest.
He had a pleasant conversation with them, exchanged contact information,
He also bought some of their flowers, supported their business a bit, and then left. After leaving the flower shop, he traveled for a while more and then exited Verdanturf Town forest, arriving in Rustboro City.
Rustboro City: A city that pursues the fusion of nature and science.
Rustboro City is the largest city in western Hoenn.
The headquarters of Devon Corporation is located here.
Devon.
Dominating the commercial landscape of Hoenn, it is also extremely large in the global business world, ranking among the top few.
Its company's industries are vast and varied.
Industrial products, daily necessities, trainer supplies, medicines, etc.
There are also various types of Poké Balls, Great Balls, Ultra Balls, Heavy Balls, and Fast Balls.
In addition, it independently developed products like the PokéNav and the portable GPS navigation system that Ye Feng is currently using, which will absolutely not get him lost.
It is said that the technology for fossil revival has been successful, and they are also researching machines for communicating with Pokémon.
In short, it is a massive company.
Originally, there was another company in the Hoenn region that could contend with it.
That was the Grandleaf Holdings Company in Mauville City.
At that time, they dominated Hoenn together with Devon.
But later, because the company's main business was energy excavation, it was shut down, and it eventually went bankrupt.
As for whether there was a conspiracy behind the bankruptcy of such a giant, it is unknown. After that, Hoenn had only one ruler.
It is also because of this that Devon has grown to be comparable to Silph Co. in Kanto.
Evenly matched.
In addition, it is the second most populous city in Hoenn.
As Ye Feng entered Rustboro City, his greatest feeling was its immense prosperity.
But he had been to big cities before.
Therefore, he went directly to the Rustboro Gym.
The exterior of the Rustboro Gym looks like a giant stone, a design that could win an award.
Upon entering and inquiring with the staff who were cleaning the battleground, he learned that the Gym Leader of Rustboro Gym, Roxanne, was usually not at the Gym but at the Pokémon Trainers' School in the city.
Therefore, Ye Feng headed to the Pokémon Trainers' School.
The Pokémon Trainers' School was similar to the beginner Pokémon school Ye Feng attended in Johto.
They were both schools that taught Pokémon knowledge.
However, both of these were for commoners, unlike the one opened by the privileged families in Kanto.
In this Pokémon Trainers' School in Hoenn, there were both young children and older children.
Usually, in addition to learning Pokémon knowledge, they would also engage in Pokémon battles and the like.
Then, they would also learn some ordinary school curriculum knowledge.
After all, not everyone who wants to become a Pokémon Master can make a living solely through Pokémon.
Ye Feng arrived here.
For some reason, he felt a sense of oppression.
Hmm...
It must be the fear of going back to school, which he hadn't experienced in a long time...
"If my eyes don't deceive me, you must be Ye Feng, correct?"
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a sharp suit appeared in front of Ye Feng.
Ye Feng extended his hand: "Yes, hello. May I ask who you are?"
"I am the principal here."
The principal showed a very polite smile.
"I watched the two-crown competition, and I believe no trainer in our Hoenn region can defeat you, including our Elite Four and the Champion."
Ye Feng: "Yes, that's right, I am invincible."
Hearing this, the principal fell silent for a moment.
He was actually just flattering Ye Feng and never expected that Ye Feng would be so arrogant, just like on television.
"Oh, let me guess the reason for Mr. Ye Feng's visit. If I'm not mistaken, you must be here for Roxanne."
"Are you here to challenge her?"
