I Tamed a Pokémon and Traveled to This World

"Bulbasaur, use Vine Whip!"

At Ethan's command, two Vine Whips suddenly shot out from the bulb on Bulbasaur's back, striking fiercely at Eevee. However, this Eevee clearly excelled in speed. Its four limbs moved rapidly, and it easily dodged the Vine Whip attack. Once safe, it even glanced at Bulbasaur and let out a provocative cry! This instantly enraged Bulbasaur!

"Bulba! Bulba!"

Bulbasaur's eyes sharpened, and it almost instinctively charged forward! But just as it began to move, Ethan quickly stopped it.

"Bulbasaur, don't let its cries affect you. Continue to use Vine Whip!"

This was the biggest difference between a wild Pokémon and a Trainer's Pokémon! Before being caught, it would have charged headlong into such a provocation, but now, things seemed a bit different…

Obeying Ethan's command, Bulbasaur's two Vine Whips launched a relentless assault, as if tireless. Seeing this, Ethan nodded in satisfaction, then calmly instructed, "Very good. Maintain that attack frequency and drain its stamina!"

At first, Eevee seemed to have the upper hand, still trying to rely on its speed to dodge the Vine Whips. However, as its stamina severely depleted, Bulbasaur finally seized an opportunity and landed a powerful whip!

Whack!

Eevee cried out in pain, then suddenly exerted force, ramming its body into Bulbasaur.

"Switching to a head-on strategy?" Ethan smiled faintly, then ordered, "Bulbasaur, don't be afraid! Use Tackle!"

Under Ethan's direction, Bulbasaur also moved its four limbs, running quickly, and charged into Eevee. The next second, the two Pokémon collided. With a loud thud, they both fell backward in opposite directions.

This collision seemed to have injured them both quite a bit. They stumbled back several steps and lay there. Fortunately, neither had lost the ability to battle. After struggling for a few moments, both stood back up.

However, due to its stamina, Bulbasaur recovered consciousness first, shaking off the dizziness in its head. Seeing Eevee still standing there, and without Ethan needing to give a command, it extended its Vine Whip and struck Eevee again.

Eevee was utterly unable to dodge. After taking several direct hits from the Vine Whip, it completely lost the ability to battle. Seeing this, Ethan decisively threw a Poké Ball, easily catching it.

Excellent.

Looking at the Poké Ball lying quietly on the grass, he was very satisfied with this battle. It also meant that Bulbasaur had truly begun its transformation from a wild Pokémon into a Trainer's Pokémon!

And most importantly, he had successfully caught his third Pokémon!

Cerulean City Pokémon Center.

After two days of long travel, Ethan finally arrived here. After resting for a night and enjoying the free breakfast provided by the restaurant, Ethan took his three Pokémon and headed straight for the Cerulean Gym!

After some time together, both Bulbasaur and Eevee had adapted to their new roles. And through playing and training, Ethan's relationship with them had grown even closer. At the very least, they had fully acknowledged Ethan as their Trainer and could completely follow his instructions!

Leaving the Pokémon Center, just as he stepped onto the street, Ethan noticed something posted on a nearby bulletin board. Upon closer inspection, he discovered it was a wanted poster! From the blurred photo on the poster, the wanted criminals were clearly Jessie and James of Team Rocket!

His gaze shifted downwards, revealing a large line of text below: "Pokémon thieves active in the area. Please be vigilant!"

Seeing this, Ethan couldn't help but shake his head and smile. Regardless of what Team Rocket had done in the anime or their origins, in the eyes of the police, they were always just Pokémon thieves.

However… Ethan secretly found himself looking forward to meeting them soon!

The Cerulean Gym's design resembled a giant circus tent. Under its round, colorful canopy hung a massive Seel signboard, which was very conspicuous from a distance! According to Nurse Joy at the Pokémon Center, the current Gym Leader wasn't Misty yet, but rather her three older sisters, known as the "Water Lilies" and the "Cerulean City's Three Beautiful Sisters"—Daisy, Violet, and Lily.

How to describe these three? Their strength was truly hard to gauge.

Following the street, without even needing to ask for directions, Ethan arrived at this official Gym. However, a large crowd had gathered in front of the Gym. Upon asking around, he learned that today was the three beautiful sisters' synchronized water ballet performance, and these people had gathered here specifically to watch the water ballet and enjoy the spectacle.

They claimed to like ballet, but they were clearly there to see long legs! Men, indeed, remain boys until the day they die!

But this meant… if he wanted to challenge the Gym, he would have to wait until the performance ended.

Ethan looked left and right. Cerulean City was just a medium-sized coastal city, largely similar in scenery to other places, with not much to explore. Since he had nothing else to do anyway, he bought a ticket and joined the crowd, entering the Gym to watch the performance.

Cough, cough. Of course, he wasn't there to look at legs; it was purely to pass the time!

Waiting, queuing.

Through a long corridor, Ethan followed the crowd into the Gym. What he first saw was a huge swimming pool! This was the venue for today's performance, and also, the Gym's battle arena.

Perhaps his timing was perfect, as Ethan had just found his seat and was about to sit down when, in an instant, the lights in the entire hall suddenly dimmed. At the same time, a female announcer's voice, through the loudspeakers, clearly reached everyone present.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for waiting. Our city's three beautiful sisters' synchronized water ballet show is about to begin!"

As the announcer spoke, spotlights around the hall illuminated the diving platform by the pool. There, three beautiful women in swimsuits were waving continuously to the surrounding audience!

The Cerulean City's Three Beautiful Sisters, making a dazzling entrance!

Upon seeing them, the audience erupted in thunderous applause and cheers. It seemed these three beauties were indeed very popular. Ethan also clapped along with the crowd, fully immersing himself in the mindset of an audience member.

It must be said that these three were indeed very beautiful. Especially their long, fair legs, which captivated most of the onlookers. They were simply too eye-catching!

As the music began, the atmosphere suddenly changed, signaling the official start of the performance! The next second, all three simultaneously jumped into the water, showcasing a magnificent water dance. The dance was pleasing to the eye, utterly captivating. As the music continuously transitioned, after an unknown amount of time, when they finally climbed back onto the pool edge and waved goodbye to the audience, Ethan suddenly realized how quickly time had flown. In a daze, more than an hour had passed! This was truly incredible… Beautiful things, indeed, make one linger!

Even though the show had ended, the surrounding audience seemed to want more, still full of praise for their performance.

"Daisy is so beautiful and gentle! She's simply the perfect woman!"

"Nonsense! Lily is clearly the most beautiful! Ah, her blue hair and dark red eyes have truly captured my heart!"

"Hmph, you really don't know how to appreciate beauty. If you ask me, Violet is the cutest woman among them!"

Ethan chuckled softly at the arguments around him. Since the performance was over, it was his turn next! He left via a nearby staircase, heading underground, and quickly found Daisy, Violet, and Lily in the aquarium. At this moment, the three of them were walking and laughing, clearly very pleased with today's performance.

"Did you see the audience's reaction? Today's performance was a huge success!"

"Exactly! It seems our special training during this time really wasn't in vain."

Seeing the three of them about to disappear at the end of the aquarium, Ethan hurried over and called out to them.

"Excuse me, Ms. Daisy, please wait a moment!"

Hearing Ethan's voice, the three sisters stopped. They turned around and, seeing Ethan, all showed expressions of surprise.

"Sir, the performance has already ended, you know. If you want to see it again, you'll have to wait until tomorrow."

Ethan shook his head: "Ah, no, I'm—"

However, before Ethan could finish speaking, Lily interrupted him: "Are you perhaps a reporter? Oh, I'm sorry, if you want to interview us, you'll need to make an appointment through our manager."

"A reporter?" Ethan shook his head again. "I'm not a reporter. I just came here to—"

"Not a reporter?" Violet crossed her arms and smiled, "Then you want our autographs, I suppose?"

Troublesome… These people simply wouldn't give him a chance to speak! Seeing Ethan's speechless expression, only Daisy noticed something amiss. Her eyebrows raised, and she couldn't help but ask, "Sir, could it be that you're here to challenge the Gym?"

"Of course," Ethan nodded as if it were obvious, then retorted, "Isn't that supposed to be your main business?"

It looks like Ethan is about to challenge the Cerulean Gym! I wonder how the battle will go against the three sisters.
