Intelligent Warfare

A Pokémon they did not recognize, but one that existed in the Pokédex.

At that moment, regardless of whether Porygon was beautiful or ugly, the trainers present had their curiosity piqued and crowded over to investigate its true identity.

The trainer who had called it "Pory-dog" earlier slipped into the crowd, clearly too afraid to show his face again for fear of being mocked by those around him.

Seeing more and more people gather to examine Porygon, Baimu felt this was a good opportunity to promote it, so he tugged on Dr. Akihabara's sleeve.

Understanding his meaning, the latter excitedly raised a hand.

"Ever—"

"Doctor, so you were here."

Before Dr. Akihabara could unleash the soaring passion in his heart, his opening words were abruptly cut off. A group of people parted the dense crowd and appeared before him.

At their head was Shelly, a smiling New Aqua Gang executive.

Seeing that the newcomers did not look friendly, the onlookers quickly scattered.

"Please come back with us. You still have work to finish, don't you?" She waved her hand, and two Team Aqua members immediately stepped forward to flank Dr. Akihabara from either side.

Baimu looked at them, then at the flustered Dr. Akihabara, and seriously began to doubt whether the New Aqua Gang had truly turned over a new leaf.

Why were they still acting so overbearing?

He exchanged a glance with Chansey, then looked toward the patrolling officers in the distance, intending to do something to draw their attention—

"Please come back with us!"

With a sharp shout, the two Team Aqua members flanking him bowed at ninety degrees. The inexplicable pressure made Dr. Akihabara terribly awkward, and he hurriedly grabbed his VR glasses, preparing to flee.

But Shelly had long known about his habit of running away.
