"Beachcombing refers to collecting seafood from the beaches or reefs on the coast during the ebb of the tide."
The next morning, when the tide was low, Mr. Lu led Lilia and the others to Akara Island's famous beach.
Mr. Lu explained, "The most important thing is to know how to identify the Pokémon in the sea … Today's field practice class is' beachcombing '."
"Sounds interesting!" Mamane laughed.
"When I was young …" Lily recalled, "My father often took me and my sisters to the beach to gather seafood."
"I remember that Katch's house is on Akara Island, right?" Maio asked.
"Yes, come to my house at noon. I invite everyone to taste Moo Moo fresh milk," Katch said with a smile.
"Beep beep … Today's Pokémon question is Lotto!"
Lothom's illustration book flapped its mechanical arm and flew out from Mr. Lu's back. "The symbol and guardian of Akara Island are —"
"Pink and Karp Butterfly," Lilia replied. "It is said that its scale powder has the effect of healing injuries."
"Ding ding, full marks, Lotto!" Lothom said loudly.
Lilia smiled shyly and was a little embarrassed. After all, today's field practice class was very difficult for her.
"Okay, Little Luo, switch to live broadcast mode."
Lu Ye rolled up his trousers and sleeves and said, "Today's popular science program — Alola beachcombing!"
…
Guandu, Really New Village.
"Xiaozhi!"
Auntie Hanako was hanging clothes downstairs. She looked up and shouted, "If you don't get up soon, the ship to Alola will be late."
Xiaozhi and Pikachu on the second floor were suddenly awakened. Then, 100,000 volts exploded, and electric light shot out from the window.
"This child …" Auntie Hanako smiled helplessly.
Xiaozhi shook his head and endured the 100,000 volts head-on. He turned on his phone with a refreshed expression.
"We will arrive at Alola tomorrow," Xiaozhi muttered to himself. "I have to contact Mr. Lu in advance …"
Suddenly, Xiaozhi's eyes were attracted by the long-awaited live broadcast notification.
The live broadcast room was titled 'Did Mr. Lu eat today?' and the subtitle was' Alola beachcombing! Appraise Ocean Pokémon! "
"Mr. Lu's popular science video?"
Xiaozhi scratched his head in a daze. Shouldn't this be Dr. Ohki's job?
Suddenly, Xiaozhi realized that Mr. Lu was also a Pokémon Scholar. He felt relieved and curiously clicked into the live broadcast room.
The bullet screen in the livestream was flooded with comments. The number of viewers exceeded ten million, and a large number of gifts and special effects flashed back and forth.
This was the first time Mr. Lu had broadcasted since the Desert City incident. He had disappeared for almost half a year, and now he was back as a "beachcomber and science blogger".
"Mr. Lu, you can always come up with something new for me!"
"Wasn't the tactics I taught you last time not enough? Now you're finally going to the scene?"
"Mr. Lu, can you show me how to lie on the sand?"
"Go ahead and throw the Fist Sea Cucumber back into the sea!"
The extraordinarily handsome black-haired young man in the video was facing the camera from a third-person perspective. Behind him were Lili and the other students.
Lu Ye smiled and said, "Yes.
"Today I'll take you to the beach and introduce you to Alola's Ocean Pokémon."
The camera panned to the first-person perspective. Mr. Lu was holding Lothom's illustration book and stepping on the soft beach.
The tide was low. Looking at the beach, there were small sandbags one after another. Among them, there was half a red shovel inserted into the soil.
Lu Ye said, "That red shovel … Judging from its size, it looks like a Sandhill doll. If you pull out the shovel, you'll be controlled by it and keep building sandcastles on the beach."
Sergei recalled the experience of being controlled by a Sandhill doll and building sandcastles all night. His face turned pale.
"Mr. Lu, what should we do with it?" Water Lotus looked up and asked.
"If we leave it alone, it will wander away on its own … When the life energy dissipates, it will become an ordinary shovel."
Lu Ye looked at the bullet screen and said in a daze, "You want to see the shovel pulled out?"
"That's right … Real knowledge comes from practice."
Lu Ye rubbed his chin and said, "This shovel is too small. I'll find a bigger one later and dig out a Devouring Sand Castle for you to see."
The bullet screen was flooded with "Hhhhh".
"Devouring Sand Castle: Don't come over!"
"As we all know, a shovel is the only standard to measure a Pokémon's strength."
"Bankyras is ecstatic!"
The camera continued to move. Mr. Lu explained to the students while squatting down.
"The Pokémon on the beach generally have the habit of 'lying in sand' … There should be a Fist Sea Cucumber inside. Sure enough, the sand is so shallow that it has been dried by the sun … Water Lotus, throw it back into the sea."
"Yes ~" Water Lotus picked up the Fist Sea Cucumber and threw it hard. She shook her sticky hands and squatted down to wash it in the puddle.
"The Fist Sea Cucumber secretes mucus, which affects the experience of beach tourists. Therefore, in Alola, there is a daily profession called the 'Fist Sea Cucumber Throwing Worker' who is responsible for throwing the Fist Sea Cucumber back into the sea."
Mr. Lu said, "In addition, the mucus of the Fist Sea Cucumber can be made into a very popular beauty product … Once it spits out all the mucus, it will spit out a highly toxic substance."
"This sandbag is a Baddie Star … Little Thorn poked a small hole in the sandbag. It likes to eat Sun Coral and has paralyzing toxins. Let's not provoke it."
Lu Ye shouted, "Geng Gui, throw it back into the sea!"
"Haha ~" Geng Gui smiled, scooped up a large handful of sand, and threw the Baddie Star and the sandbag back into the sea.
The bullet screen was filled with question marks.
"Baddie Star: Are you polite?"
"How dare you disturb my lying in sand? In a fit of anger, you turned into a super baddie star!"
Lu Ye looked around the beach, and his eyes fell on the small puddles where the weak fish were flapping their tails and shivering.
"The weak fish are weaker than the King Carp, but once they return to their group, they can gather into a huge form and are called 'sea monsters' by the fishermen."
Lu Ye sighed. "Unity is strength … This one is too small, throw it back into the sea too."
"This is a Thousand Needlefish with a threatening characteristic … When it is angry, it will puff out its cheeks. Come, be angry."
Lu Ye held the Thousand Needlefish and faced the camera, shaking it back and forth.
The Thousand Needlefish couldn't bear the humiliation and puffed out its cheeks in anger, turning into a round Thorny Pufferfish.
Because the Thousand Needlefish couldn't swim, it lay on the beach and could only be picked up by the large-mouthed seagulls.
Mr. Lu wiped his shoes with the angry Thorny Pufferfish and sent it back into the sea.
"On the beach of Alola, you have to be careful of this Pokémon called Dizhu … It lives in the sea and comes to the beach to look for food.
"There is also this ugly fish called Tooth Grinding Colorful Skin Fish. The sound it makes when it grinds its teeth can cause a mental attack, and even the Mega Tooth Shark will be driven away.
"Of course, there are also Pokémon that are close to humans, such as Mambo the Nanny and Laplace … They can heal injuries and protect people who fall into the water."
It was almost noon, and the group continued to walk on the beach and encountered new sandbags.
Lu Ye flipped the sand and said with a subtle expression, "This Pokémon that looks like two feet is called Turtle Feet …"
Its prototype was a barnacle from the sea … Its appearance was hard to describe, and the Turtle Feet Giant Armor that evolved was one of the ugliest Pokémon in Mr. Lu's heart.
Mr. Lu stood up and planned to lead the students to lunch.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the inverted sand shovel and the huge sand dune.
For a moment, Mr. Lu's eyes lit up and he said,
"This sand shovel is huge. It's probably the Giant Devouring Sand Castle!"
The bullet screen was filled with "Ohhhhh."
"My favorite beach show – Pulling the Sand Shovel!"
"F * ck, this sand shovel is too big. It has lived for at least a few decades!"
"Last time, I explained the danger of the Giant Devouring Sand Castle, but many people didn't believe it. They said that the Giant Devouring Sand Castle looked cute … Today, I will take you to see it with your own eyes."
Lu Ye walked slowly to the red sand shovel inserted in the sand dune. His palm was bathed in the blue light of the waveguide, and he said, "The following are dangerous moves. The best way to deal with the Giant Devouring Sand Castle is to control your hands …
"But this Giant Devouring Sand Castle is too big. It is easy to hurt tourists if it stays here. I will disperse some of its sand."
Mr. Lu looked behind and shouted, "Shuilian, take everyone back!"
Shuilian was the child of a fisherman's family. She knew the threat of the Giant Devouring Sand Castle. Moreover, this sand shovel was buried deep in the sand dune. It was probably more than 10 meters high. It could be called an overlord Pokémon!
She nervously pursed her lips and reached out to protect Lilie. Maho and Sergei stared in surprise, "The sand shovel has been pulled out!"
A ghostly energy similar to a curse came from their palms. They tried to control it, but it was easily removed by the power of the waveguide.
Lu Ye held the sand shovel in his hand and looked up at the giant Giant Devouring Sand Castle that rose from the ground and covered the sky. He couldn't help but sigh,
"The king of the sand, it can be called the best!"
The Giant Devouring Sand Castle in the illustrated book was only one meter high, but the one in front of them was more than 10 meters high. This was because the Giant Devouring Sand Castle could continue to increase its size and threat level with age.
The Giant Devouring Sand Castle that appeared in the anime almost destroyed the Kukui Research Institute. Its size was about the same as this one.
A giant sand castle appeared in the camera, with the windows as eyes and the gate as a big mouth. It waved its arms angrily and tried to take back the sand shovel!
The fans were shocked and couldn't help but talk about it.
"The sand shovel has been pulled out. It feels a little pitiful …"
"This thing can absorb life energy. It is too dangerous if we don't disperse some of its sand."
"My goodness, Mr. Lu's sand shovel is bigger than other seaside bloggers'!"
Rumble!!
The Giant Devouring Sand Castle's body covered the sky and the sun. The sand on the beach kept gathering toward it. Its body was full of angry red aura, causing the beach to rumble and tremble.
The island's guardian, Karpo Butterfly, rushed over from the ruins of life immediately and floated over the sea.
Its appearance was mainly pink. Its upper body was black, and its lower body was like a pink cocoon. The scale powder it scattered could not only heal injuries, but also make people lose their resistance.
Lu Ye and the others on the beach were reflected in Karpo Butterfly's eyes. He was slightly surprised.
There was a very strange wave guide on his body …
Moreover, this trainer was trying to deal with the overlord, the Giant Devouring Sand Castle, alone?
"Go, Bankyras!"
Lu Ye threw out the dark ball and shouted, "Use Crush!!"
Red light bloomed. Bankyras stomped on the ground with large strides, his eyes fierce.
"Bankyras!! (✪ ω ✪) "
The double restraint of the evil element, coupled with the suppression of the food chain, made the Giant Devouring Sand Castle tremble slightly.
"Roar …"
I don't want this sand shovel anymore, okay?!
Bankyras opened his big mouth and bit the bottom of the Giant Devouring Sand Castle. A large amount of quicksand kept spilling out, as if he had taken a bite of a cream quicksand cake.
This sand was not the Giant Devouring Sand Castle's main body, but sand gathered through the "sand collection".
"Roar ~! (//o/) "
The Giant Devouring Sand Castle's body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, stirring up violent sand, trying to use the sandstorm to attack Mr. Lu and the others.
"Onion Ranger, clear the thick fog," Lu Ye said.
"Ga! (. ・ `Ω ́ ・) "
A red light flew out of the commemorative ball. The Onion Ranger held a long onion and a shield and kept waving the onions, like an invisible wind wall isolating the sandstorm.
"Bankyras, use it to vent your anger!!" Lu Ye shouted.
Bankyras roared loudly and crashed into the Giant Devouring Sand Castle's body. Then, he stepped on the sand, and a pitch-black evil halo suddenly spread out and exploded with a bang!
The bullet screen was full of "tears".
"Devouring, Sand, Castle …"
"Who is guarding this beach? The Giant Devouring Sand Castle! "
"Mr. Lu raised the combat power of the beachcombing trainers by himself."
Sand flew everywhere, and a large amount of sand flowed out of the Giant Devouring Sand Castle's body.
Lu Ye looked at his palm, and the sand shovel in his palm was gradually shrinking.
The flying sand dispersed, and Lu Ye saw that the Giant Devouring Sand Castle had returned to its basic form of one meter, so he put the sand shovel back on the Giant Devouring Sand Castle's head with relief.
"Roar ~ ~ (- ^ O ^ -)"
The sand shovel came back, and it slipped away ~
The Giant Devouring Sand Castle dived into the sand with the sand shovel on its head, moved quickly, and escaped from the sand.
Ding.
Water Lotus made a soft sound of surprise, and her gaze fell on the shallow sand pit, where half of the shining purple pure crystal was exposed.
"Mr. Lu." Water Lotus picked up the purple pure crystal and handed it to him. "This seems to have been dropped by the Giant Devouring Sand Castle!"
"Let me see … Ghost Z."
Lu Ye pondered and nodded. "No wonder the Giant Devouring Sand Castle's body was so exaggerated. It should have been affected by the Z pure crystal."
None of the students had subdued the ghost-type Bao Ke Meng. Ghost Z, which was famous for its abnormal state and curses, was more suitable for Mr. Lu.
Lu Ye looked at the camera and said,
"Take this Ghost Z … Let's continue to walk and see if we can meet Competitive Crabs and Big Pincer Crabs!"
…
At sunset, Mr. Lu and Dr. Kukui led the students to the mansion of the King of Akara Island, Liz, for a banquet.
Liz was a woman with a straightforward personality. She had a well-proportioned figure and tanned skin.
She smiled and said, "I've learned about what happened this morning … Mr. Lu, thank you for your generous treatment of the beach and solving such a big hidden danger."
"I'm just taking the students to an outdoor practice class and doing a popular science program."
Lu Ye said that he got Ghost Z from the Giant Devouring Sand Castle and wondered if he should return it to the King of the Island.
"Of course it belongs to you," Liz said with a smile. "Ghost Z is also very suitable for you and your partner, Geng Gui."
"That being said …" Lu Ye said, "I'm still more inclined to use Evil Z."
Although Geng Gui's Dark Black Hole wasn't his strongest skill, it was still his strongest skill.
Ghost Z's Shadow Ball was also very powerful, but it was still inferior to the illegal Dark Hole.
Dr. Kukui took a sip of Phoenix Juice and said half-jokingly,
"You can try to create your own full-strength posture and build a Z move exclusive to Geng Gui."
Lu Ye was slightly stunned and listened to Dr. Kukui continue.
"Although Geng Gui Z has not been discovered … Geng Gui is a Pokémon with infinite possibilities, Mega evolution, Mega transformation …"
"With the bond between the two of you and your strength as a Legend, you might be able to create a unique Z move," Dr. Kukui said with a smile.
"Geng Gui Z …"
It was similar to the combination of Pikachu Z and Electric Z. Smart Skin Z's Ten Million Volts.
Lu Ye looked at Ghost Z and Evil Z in his palm and fell into deep thought.
The prerequisite for Z moves was to first build a full-strength posture, which was the awkward dance …
Xiaozhi and Pikachu's Ten Million Volts. The full-strength posture was the Pikachu wearing Xiaozhi's hat.
If Geng Gui Z was feasible.
Then wouldn't the full-strength posture of Geng Gui and I be … patting shoulders?!
Mr. Lu murmured, "It feels feasible …"
