More than ten minutes later, Xia Mu's father Xia He drove back home.
The car stopped with a loud noise, so Xia Mu and Mu Xiuli went out together to greet them.
Xia He looks full of vigor and vitality. Although he is middle-aged, he is the type of mature, steady and handsome uncle.
It's also thanks to the fact that mom Mu Xiuli is a great beauty, intelligent and considerate, that she can completely control this dad whose looks alone can attract countless flowers.
Xia Mu spoke first and greeted him.
It was really what his mother Mu Xiuli said before that made him have great expectations.
Xia He nodded, then laughed and said, "I just heard from your mother that you went out for another day of training. Dad is really happy that you have finally taken this step."
For him, his son seemed like a different person after he woke up ten days ago. He was very worried at first, but now he is glad that his son encountered this disaster and got rid of the shadow of his childhood.
He was even more grateful to Riolu because it was the Pokémon that suddenly appeared after Xia Mu woke up, so he thought that it was because of Riolu that Xia Mu began to trust Pokémon and wanted to become stronger.
After some greetings, Xia He put his arms around Mu Xiuli and Xia Mu's shoulders and walked into the gate.
Growlithe and Riolu followed behind him, being very well behaved and not making any noise.
In fact, there should have been Kidosiri and Xiahe's Pokémon at home, but because Xiamu was afraid of them, they had been fostered with the gym master Xia Bo on the neighboring Red Lotus Island, and they only came back for a few days a month.
Now that Natsuki's shadow has disappeared, Kidosiri and Natsuki have also had the idea of getting their Pokémon back, but it has not been implemented yet.
"Dad, Mom said you prepared a surprise for me. Can you tell me now?" At the dinner table, Xia Mu found the right opportunity to ask.
The expression of expectation was not concealed.
After all, he has already adapted to this identity and integrated everything of his original body. He is Xia Mu.
"Haha, it seems your mother couldn't help but tell you, this is it." Xia He said with a smile as he took out a Poké Ball from his arms.
"What is this?" Xia Mu was even more confused.
Give him a Pokémon?
Mu Xiuli, who was standing by, saw Xia Mu was stunned for a moment, and explained: "The day after you woke up from the water, didn't you mention the golden carp? Our cargo ship always travels by sea, and your father has been asking people about it, and has also instructed all the crew members to catch the golden carp if they see it."
Golden Magikarp?!
Xia Mu was shocked.
Looking back now, it seemed like it was the second day after I traveled through time. I saw a large number of Magikarp on the coast, and then I sighed and said that it would be great if there was a golden Magikarp.
After all, as the first must-have shiny Pokémon in the game, the obsession with it is still very strong.
Unexpectedly, he just said it casually, but Xia He took it to heart.
It was inevitable that he was moved, and he suddenly felt a little ashamed.
At the beginning, I was still thinking about how to get along with my parents in this life, and how to carefully plan my life to make myself live a better life.
I was too calculating.
"What's wrong? Don't you like it?" Seeing a slight gleam in Xia Mu's eyes, Xia He patted Xia Mu's shoulder and asked.
Xia Mu hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, I just suddenly felt sorry for you…"
This can be considered as what he said to help his original self, completely untying the knot in his heart.
"Silly child, isn't it all over? Besides, you have never caused any trouble for mom and dad." Mu Xiuli touched Xia Mu's head, making Xia Mu feel the satisfaction brought by family love.
"Okay, don't think about unhappy things. Do you still want this Golden Carp King?" Xia He changed the atmosphere with his words.
Xia Mu stopped pretending and nodded, taking the Poké Ball: "Yes, this is a Shiny Magikarp. After it evolves in the future, it will also be a Shiny Gyarados."
relieved now. You have completely gotten rid of the past." Xia He was not worried at all.
He saw Xia Mu's growth and he was no longer the little kid he used to be.
Mu Xiuli looked at this scene and smiled with relief.
...
The family was very harmonious during the dinner.
After the meal, the family of three took Growlithe and Riolu out for a stroll, greeted the neighbors, and Xia Mu saw more Pokémon. It was not until they returned home that Xia Mu released the Golden Magikarp.
There was no big water tank at home, so Xia He used his connections to make one and had it delivered overnight.
The Golden Magikarp was obviously unfamiliar with the environment here, but as a Magikarp, it had a simple mind and did not think too much, and quickly adapted to the place.

---
Looking at the data and information of the Shiny Magikarp, Xia Mu had a comprehensive understanding of it.
It must be said that the qualifications of this Magikarp are actually average, and its personality is not outstanding either.
But if you go the dual attack route, it's still possible.
The individual value is very poor, but in fact, it is difficult for the individual value of wild Magikarp to be very good. It has to rely on later training to improve. In the game, it also relies on laying eggs to get high V individual values.
What a coincidence.
Originally, Xia Mu's plan was to take advantage of these two days to go out to sea and capture a large water-type Pokémon, so that he could cross the sea to the new island Pokémon City in ten days.
Or you can capture a Pidgeot, quickly level it up to level 36 and let it evolve into a Megapixel, so that it can carry you over.
Now that I have this Shiny Magikarp, I can upgrade it quickly and make it evolve.
In this way, crossing the sea will not be a problem.
But it's not easy to evolve the Shiny Magikarp.
It is currently unclear whether experience points can be shared by carrying it with you without engaging in combat. Even if Magikarp engages in combat, it will not be able to use skills other than leaping, and will not be able to finish off the enemy.
Xia Mu remembered that Magikarp could only learn collision at level 15, and there was also a frenzy at level 25.
If there is no other way, the only option is to buy a magic candy and let it reach level 15 to see if you can learn the collision skill.
If that doesn't work, we'll have to think of other ways.
Maybe we can let Riolu and Growlithe act like in the original story, and let Magikarp think that he has defeated Riolu and Growlithe?
You can try this, but Magikarp can only evolve at level 20.
Although there are only 6 levels left, there is still a long way to go.
