Professor Oak was taken aback when he learned that there was a space of nearly several hundred square meters inside the Palossand, as he had never heard of such a space inside the Palossand.
Wow! It's a big castle!
Ash, looking like he'd never seen anything like it, hovered around Palossand.
Serena was also curious that this castle-like building was actually a Pokémon. Since Roy had only used Palossand in the qualifiers of the Edge Cup, Serena didn't know that Roy had this Pokémon.
"You Ash, that's Palossand, it's a Ghost type / Ground type Pokémon..."
Ash and Serena weren't listening to Gary's explanation at all, and the two of them followed Professor Oak into Palossand for a tour.
The Palossand even built a sand ladder on the city wall to connect to the ground, so that Ash and Serena could play there.
"Gary, do you want to come up and take a look? It's such a tall slide!!"
Ash, having slid down the sand ladder, couldn't wait to re-enter the gates of Palossand's Castle.
"Ignorant and incompetent!"
Although Gary complained about Ash, his eyes couldn't help but drift towards the sand ladder created by Palossand. He wanted to play on the sand ladder with Serena and Ash, but he was worried that they might be Ghost type Pokémon a little scared.
After all, he's just an eight-year-old child. Although he usually acts like an adult, he wouldn't lie to himself.
Seeing that Gary looked like he wanted to go in but was also a little scared, Roy put an arm around Gary's shoulder.
Gary turned around and saw that it was Roy.
"Shall we go inside and take a look?"
"Okay... alright, since you've put it that way, I'll go in and take a look."
Roy brought Gary into the space inside Palossand's body and took him to the city wall of Palossand.
Gary still complained, but his actions betrayed him as he joined the slide party.
The world is indeed full of wonders.
While the three little ones were still playing on the sand ladder, Professor Oak was awestruck by the enormous space inside Palossand.
Moreover, it's fully furnished with all the necessary appliances; no wonder Roy said he brought a home with him—it truly is a home.
Where does the electrical system within the Devourer Fortress come from?
Roy removed the Light Ball from the Palossand's body, explaining that the Light Ball generated electricity within the Palossand's body to power the household appliances inside.
So this is how Pokémon items can be used?
Professor Oak felt that Roy also had the potential to be Researcher.
Ash and Serena wanted to play a little longer inside Palossand, but Professor Oak urged the three of them to go back to their rooms to sleep and rest because it was getting dark.
There will be new tasks and activities at summer camp tomorrow.
After sliding down the sand ladder, Gary coolly turned and left the lab's backyard, while Ash and Serena reluctantly said goodbye to Lampent Palossand.
After waving goodbye to Professor Oak and the three little ones, Roy led Palossand to the Wetland Marsh Zone in the backyard of the research institute, which was also Palossand's favorite environment.
On the road to the Wetland Marsh Zone, Roy also saw a Slowpoke blocking a Psyduck's path.
Psyduck rubbed its big head with both hands, looking at Slowpoke blocking the way. Slowpoke slowly swished its tail.
"Reachable~Reachable~"
"Thump~ Thump~"
The two are just like Flash from Zootopia.
The key is still the two lightning bolts, taught by the same master, which can't break the move.
The two silly creatures stubbornly tried to control themselves for a long time.
Roy watched anxiously, figuring it would take several hours for the two to finish their conversation.
So he simply picked up Psyduck, carried it over Slowpoke, and placed Psyduck on the other side of the road.
"Reachable~"
Psyduck scratched its head, its three tufts of hair standing on end, still wondering how it got there. Could it be that it could fly now?
Until a hand was placed on his large head.
Psyduck looked up and saw Roy touching its head.
Roy also remembered that Misty also had a Psyduck, which, like Pichu God, was a concept god.
"Reachable~"
So, does this count as me petting a duck?
Psyduck's fur feels like a plush toy, and Roy would give it the same top-tier rating as Persian, but it's still not as good as Clefable 'Cute Charm.
After having a good time petting the ducks, Roy arrived at the edge of the Wetland Marsh Zone. The wetland was not large, and there were several Psyducks and Slowkings inside, which seemed to be Pokémon from two different groups.
Surprisingly, these two goofy Pokémon get along well together.
Even when they saw the colossal Palossand, the Psyducks and Slowpokes didn't budge an inch, displaying a very laid-back personality.
That makes sense. This is Oak Research Lab backyard, so there's no need to worry about safety. That's why these Psyducks and Slowpokes have no sense of caution at all.
"Then let's rest here for today, Palossand."
"Sand!"
After Roy entered the space inside the Palossand's body, the Palossand's body sank directly into the swamp, leaving only a golden shovel above the swamp.
This was Roy's first time spending the night inside the Palossand. The layout inside was just like his villa in the back mountains of the Rustboro Academy, so Roy felt no different from being at home.
Moreover... with a "click!" Roy snapped his fingers, and instantly all the lights in the castle turned on; the whole house was smart.
After doing all this, Roy didn't plan to go to sleep so early, as he still had 11 million Popularity Points left to use.
Roy first opened his own panel and spent 8.96 million Popularity Points to directly upgrade the Ghost Power to level 10.
Another beam of evolutionary light appeared on Roy's body. The Annihilape and the Misdreavus beside him were already used to it and didn't take it seriously.
Even after the light of evolution faded, a mysterious aura still surrounded Roy.
However, it seems that apart from the fact that the Ghost Power within his body has expanded several times over, nothing else has changed this time.
Roy didn't sense any change, and when he asked the Misdreavus and the Annihilape, they both Knob, indicating that they didn't sense any change in Roy.
Logically, 10% should be a turning point, so why hasn't it changed at all?
Well, at least the Ghost Power within him has increased. Although he said that, Roy was still a little disappointed, after all, this time he had spent nearly 9 million Popularity Points.
After this level upgrade, it will take 10.24 million Popularity Points to upgrade the Ghost Power to level 11.
Roy doesn't need to consider Tractor his Ghost Power for the time being.
Seeing that he still had 2.04 million Popularity Points left in the system, Roy opened the System Shop and refreshed it again.
The first item in the System Shop after refreshing it immediately captivated Roy.
1. Prop: Wishing Star
Effect: This is a stone found in the Galar region, imbued with magical power. It is said that whoever finds it will have their wishes granted.
Required Popularity Points for redemption: 1.8 million
