Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 127 Night Thief Salamander

Li Shuwen looked at his clothes again, which were also covered in dust from Eevee, and couldn't help but complain, "What have you been doing? How did you get yourself all covered in soot?"

Ibuki proudly raised its head, "Ibuki!"

Jumping down from Li Shuwen's arms, Ibu vividly showed Li Shuwen what he had done that day.

It must be a vicious Pokémon that came and bullied Eevee's friends, trying to take over their territory.

Eevee arrives as a hero, leading his friends to drive that guy away.

And this coat of coal dust is thanks to him.

Li Shuwen was a little curious, as Pokémon that could spray black ash were not common.

This Pokémon, which appears to be of the Fire type, is also quite ferocious.

If he's unhappy, he can arbitrarily use flamethrowers on the piles of debris in the old town of Veil City.

The fire started by setting fire to debris, which in turn set fire to the wooden buildings in the old town, causing a massive fire.

Judging from its territorial behavior, this Pokémon must have just arrived in Veilstone City.

Leaving such Pokémon in Veilstone City could pose a safety hazard.

We must find him and provide him with safety education.

Li Shuwen put his hand on Ibu's shoulder and looked at Ibu seriously.

"Ibrahimovic, I have a very important task for you!"

Ibrahimovic's expression also turned serious as he stared intently at Li Shuwen.

"Eevee!"

Li Shuwen nodded. "Very good, very energetic! I need you to help me find that Pokémon that you chased away!"

Ibrahimovic blinked blankly, then nodded vigorously.

"Boo!"

Leave it to him without worry!

Eevee had battled this Fire-type Pokémon before and was very familiar with its scent.

Ibrahimovic believes that if they start their search from where they drove him away, they will definitely find him!

Li Shuwen waved to Elrethoat and Sirfetch'd.

"You two, come with me to take care of something."

The Armored Dragon and the Infernape were exchanging punches in a heated exchange.

The scoundrel also threw a serious punch, trying to break through the Goomy's defense.

And carefully dodge the snail shell attacks of the Golem.

Even the Nymph is very focused on its battle training.

Following Ibrahimovic, Li Shuwen arrived at an amusement park made up of piles of discarded furniture.

Lulili, Mushroom, Furball, Egg, and Ubo.

Although Eevee said they were able to defeat that Pokémon because he was brave enough.

Actually, it was Lulili and Wubo's water guns that made the other side flee in panic.

Upo poked his head out of the tin bucket full of water. "Upo?"

Ibrahimovic looked up and proudly introduced Li Shuwen behind him to Upo.

Li Shuwen smiled and waved to Wu Bo, "Hello, Wu Bo."

Lulili, Mushroom, Fur Ball, and Egg are all fast asleep, huddled together on a worn-out sofa.

Defeating the Pokémon vying for territory had drained them of too much energy.

Ibrahimovic revealed the task Li Shuwen had given him, and Upo jumped out of the bucket.

"Upo!"

He was also willing to lend Li Shuwen a hand.

Li Shuwen took out a handful of Pokémon food from his pocket and handed it to Upo. "Thank you, Upo. Eat something to recover your strength."

Ubo devoured the elf food in Li Shuwen's hand.

Since arriving in Veil City, Upo has eaten quite a lot of food made by humans.

But the fairy food I ate today tasted the best. As soon as I ate it, I felt a surge of energy in my body.

Before leaving, Li Shuwen also placed a large pile of Pokémon food next to the old sofa, enough for Ruri's four Pokémon to eat.

Ibu lowered his head to sniff, leading Li Shuwen to a secluded alley.

Two supersonic bats were quietly sleeping on the outer edge of the wall, waiting for nightfall to begin their hunt.

After passing through the deep alley, you will arrive at the bustling commercial street.

The familiar aroma of barbecue wafted over, and Uncle Fu's barbecue shop was not far away.

All of these shops, led by Uncle Fu, are wooden buildings.

Once a fire starts, it can easily spread to other buildings.

In the alleys between the shops, there are usually piles of miscellaneous items.

Some Pokémon that live in the city search for treasure among these odds and ends.

A black lizard was lying in the alley, its eyes fixed intently on the barbecue that Uncle Fu was making.

Saliva kept drooling from his mouth.

Uncle Fu brought out the barbecue, and the Night Thief Salamander immediately rushed out from the alley.

They were preparing to spray poison gas at Uncle Fu.

A righteous voice rang in Uncle Fu's ears.

"Gallade, Psychic!"

Uncle Fu turned his head and saw Li Shuwen release a majestic Pokémon.

Its eyes emitted a blue light, pointing directly at him from a distance.

Uncle Fu looked surprised. "Shuwen, what are you doing?"

The fire lizard, its body under control, flew out of the shadows.

"Uncle Fu, it's this little guy, trying to snatch the barbecue from your hand."

Uncle Fu was also somewhat surprised. "Since Officer Jenny took office five years ago, there hasn't been a case of wild Pokémon living in the city stealing food in Veilstone City for a long time."

"This guy... I don't think I've ever seen him before?"

Li Shuwen nodded. "Salamander is a Pokémon from the Alola region. There shouldn't be any Salamanders naturally inhabiting the wild in the Sinnoh region."

Li Shuwen hasn't encountered any challengers using the Night Thief Salamander recently.

I don't understand why Salamence was abandoned by its trainer.

Gallade controlled Salamence and flew to Li Shuwen's side.

Li Shuwen said gently, "Night Thief Salamander, I have some food here that's suitable for you. I'll have Gallade release you in a bit."

"Don't wander off, just eat."

Li Shuwen grabbed a handful of Pokémon food, and Gallade put Salamence on the ground, releasing the Psychic control that was holding him.

The fire lizard grabbed the elf food and stuffed it into its mouth.

Judging from the fire lizard's behavior, he may have been hungry for a long time.

"Uncle Fu, call Miss Officer Jenny and ask her to come and pick up the Night Thief Salamander."

"I see!"

Uncle Fu nodded, served the dishes to the customer, and immediately went back to make a phone call.

Miss Officer Jenny responded quickly, and her sidecar motorcycle soon stopped in front of Uncle Fu's barbecue restaurant.

As they entered the barbecue restaurant, Miss Officer Jenny saluted Li Shuwen.

"Librarian, Uncle Fu said you think this recently abandoned fire-stealing lizard could potentially pose a safety hazard?"

Li Shuwen nodded, "Salamander is a Poison and Fire type, both of which are types that can easily cause harm, whether it's poisoning people or Pokémon, or starting a fire."

"This would threaten the safety and health of the people of Veil City. Just now, driven by hunger, he tried to attack Uncle Fu to steal food, but fortunately I stopped him in time."

Ibu raised its head, "Ibu!"

Li Shuwen bent down and patted Ibu's little head.

"That's right, thanks to Eevee, I found Salamence."

Officer Jenny frowned. "I'll contact Nurse Joy right now and see if any trainers have brought Salamence to Veilwall City."

Trainers can release Pokémon, but they cannot release them maliciously.

For example, releasing Sandshrew into a pond, or releasing Salamence, which is not in the Sinnoh Pokédex, into Veilwall City.

Invasive species need to be returned to their native habitat for release.

This trainer must be arrested and severely punished!

Officer Jenny narrowed her eyes, revealing a murderous aura.
