Chapter 146: The Treasure

Chapter 146: The Treasure As Yuga returned to the spot where he encountered the Duskull, he suddenly heard bursts of eerie laughter. This time, it seemed like there was more than one entity.

Unconsciously, Yuga felt the air around him grow heavy.

Linoone was still asleep, rendering Yuga unable to use its Odor Sleuth to locate the Ghost-type Pokémon. However, Yuga had another plan.

"Vivillon, use Psybeam."

At Yuga's command, the two antennae atop Vivillon's head emitted a colorful beam that swept across the area.

Wherever the beam touched, it turned into powder. Before long, the Ghost-type Pokémon hidden in the darkness started to fall, dazed and disoriented.

Gastly, Misdreavus, Shuppet, and others, including the Duskull Yuga had encountered earlier, all succumbed to the beam's effects. Yuga casually counted and realized there were more than ten Ghost-type Pokémon here.

They were probably the ones that Duskull, whom Linoone had "educated," had called over for assistance.

It was fortunate that these Ghost-types were of relatively low levels. Otherwise, Yuga would have had a difficult time. After all, these eccentric Ghost-type Pokémon didn't follow conventions like straightforward Clawitzer, making them harder to manipulate.

The floating Ghost-types tried to flee.

"Vivillon, use Psybeam to capture that Misdreavus."

Yuga didn't mind the other Pokémon, except for the Misdreavus. Yuga didn't intend to let it go; it was the only high-potential Pokémon among the Ghost-types, and it had a blue potential.

Yuga planned to give it to Robert. After all, he had managed to capture so many Pokémon since arriving here, while Robert had obtained nothing. Yuga felt a bit guilty about this.

Knowing that his usual Pokémon wouldn't interest Robert, Yuga decided to give him the Misdreavus, as it was a perfect fit for his role as a coordinated Trainer.

Speaking of which, Robert's Pokémon had very high potentials. Except for Chimecho, who had a green potential, all his other Pokémon were either blue (Baltoy, Cinccino) or Indigo (Milotic).

Yuga's Pokémon also had one green (Chimecho), two blue (Absol and Florges), and one Indigo (Vivillon).

Capturing the low-level Misdreavus with Psybeam was simple. Vivillon tapped it gently, causing it to lose its battling capabilities.

After storing the Poké Ball containing Misdreavus, Yuga couldn't help but feel lucky. To his surprise, he had encountered two Pokémon with blue potentials consecutively.

Returning to the spot where they had split up, Yuga found Robert had returned.

"Why were you so slow? Did something happen?" Robert seemed a bit worried after Yuga's prolonged absence.

Yuga smiled and shook his head. "Nothing much, just encountered a few Pokémon attacks, all resolved."

"For a few days of absence, did you find anything on your side?" Now that Yuga was indeed alright, Robert inquired about the results of Yuga's exploration.

Yuga shook his head again and said, "No gains, I reached the end and found a nest of Clawitzer. Nothing else. But I've brought you a gift." Saying that, Yuga took out the Poké Ball containing Misdreavus and handed it to Robert.

"Pokémon?" Seeing Yuga offer the Poké Ball, Robert didn't accept it; instead, he asked with suspicion.

"Yes, your kind. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!" Seeing Robert's lack of reaction, Yuga simply placed the Poké Ball in his hand.

Robert took the Poké Ball and released the Pokémon inside.

When the Misdreavus emerged from the Poké Ball, it opened its eyes in bewilderment. Startled upon seeing Yuga and Robert, it instinctively tried to flee.

However, just as it was about to make a move, Robert's Chimecho restrained it.

"Misdreavus, this will be your Trainer from now on. As long as you behave well, he won't mistreat you." Yuga pointed towards Robert and addressed Misdreavus.

"Drooow."

Glancing at Robert, Misdreavus reluctantly nodded under Yuga's "intimidation."

"Misdreavus, I look forward to working with you." Despite not understanding why Yuga insisted on giving him this Misdreavus, Robert chose to keep it out of trust for his friend.

After recalling Misdreavus, Robert thanked Yuga, "Thank you for the gift. I'll take good care of it."

With the matter of Misdreavus settled, Yuga asked, "Did you find anything on your side?"

Standing in place, Robert replied, "I think I've found their storeroom and obtained a batch of treasures." He gestured towards Chimecho.

Chimecho understood his gesture and used psychic power to levitate four boxes from the darkness: three large ones and one small.

"Treasures? What's inside these boxes?" Yuga asked curiously. If they were considered treasures, they should contain valuable items.

Right after Yuga asked, Robert's Chimecho opened the first box. The contents inside were dazzling, emitting countless red glows that nearly blinded Yuga's eyes.

Inside were numerous Fire Stones.

"So many Fire Stones!" Yuga exclaimed, astonished.

However, the surprising revelation was yet to come.

The second box contained an abundance of Thunder Stones, while the third was filled with Water Stones.

Indeed, they were treasures. These many Evolution Stones must have been worth a fortune.

The contents of the fourth small box were comparatively fewer, but they were still valuable: a Prism Scale, a King's Rock, a Dragon Scale, a Light Clay, a Spell Tag, and a small black box.

"Let's divide these items." Robert suggested.

"But... it doesn't seem right... after all, you found them," Yuga hesitated. He really desired these items, but he felt a bit embarrassed.

"What's wrong with that? You were the one who discovered this place. There's a saying that the discoverer should have a share. Besides, didn't you also give me a gift?" Robert looked at Yuga, who was practically glued to the items with his eyes and even refusing, making it quite amusing.

In the end, unable to resist the temptation, Yuga agreed.

Ultimately, they split the Evolution Stones evenly, with each taking one of each type.

As for the final box, since Robert had found it, he first chose the King's Rock, the Dragon Scale, and the Spell Tag. Yuga received the Prism Scale, the Light Clay, and the mysterious black box.

"By the way, I tried to open this black box before, but I couldn't. I don't know what's inside," Robert suddenly remembered something and told Yuga.

Excitedly, Yuga replied, "In situations like this, the most valuable item among all these is usually inside. You better not regret it when you open it."

Robert nonchalantly responded, "I hope not, and I hope you won't regret either."
