Pokémon orphanage

What do you need to do to adopt a Pokémon in the Pokémon world?

The first step is to fill out the form.

The Alliance requires adopters to register relevant information to prevent Pokémon from being abandoned again. It also mandates that Pokémon orphanages have to conduct regular follow-up surveys on adopted Pokémon to confirm there's no reselling or abuse.

However, these measures are well-managed to avoid annoying adopters to the greatest extent. Follow-up visits are required only once a year and last for just two years. After two years, there's no mandatory requirement for further visits.

That's a good thing.

But he met some people whose adoption requirements were almost as long as a book.

Very thick.

They also required random video checks. If you failed three sudden video checks, your adoption qualification would be revoked. Then you'd have to undergo checks every month, which was very cumbersome.

Taylor knew these strict requirements were meant to prevent people from adopting and then abusing animals.

However, such strictness also made Taylor lose the idea of adopting.

"Ms. Rhea, according to the requirements of the Alliance's 'Pokémon Adoption Policy 2.0 Implementation Version,' I will contact you within this year and make a return visit, and then discuss it with you," Taylor said politely.

Rhea had done enough homework and accepted it easily.

Then Officer Jenny took Rhea away, along with Nova and Dusk.

Seeing the two little guys reluctant to leave, Taylor squatted down and rubbed their heads.

Kuro and Bonk were standing behind Taylor, looking at their companions. Although Casey did not come out, Taylor knew she was also paying attention to this place.

Recruiting new members and saying goodbye are compulsory courses in the Pokémon orphanage.

"Nova, Dusk, you must have a happy time when you go out in the future, okay?" Taylor said gently.

Nova rubbed Taylor's hand affectionately, and its tail curled again and again.

Dusk, the Poochyena, expressed its emotions in a much simpler way.

It came over and licked Taylor's face.

After sending off the two children who were reluctant to leave but still had to rush toward a new life, Taylor took a deep breath and stood up.

Then he took out a notebook from his pocket.

He found the names of Nova and Dusk and drew a circle around them.

"Two more children have been adopted," Taylor looked at the notebook in his hand.

Listed above were all the stray Pokémon Taylor had taken in. There weren't many of them, less than two pages. After all, Taylor had only run this Pokémon orphanage for two months.

Officer Jenny also followed Rhea away, as she still had official business to attend to.

After resolving the issues with Nova and Dusk, Taylor returned to his infirmary, opened the door, and looked at the Teddiursa that was brought in that morning.

The Teddiursa was sleeping soundly, and Taylor could feel the sleepiness coming from its spirit.

It would take a long time for the little guy to recover, so Taylor didn't stay for too long, as he had some other things to deal with today.

Taylor returned to his office, changed into some decent clothes, put on his briefcase, and walked out of his office.

"Casey, remember to guard the house! Kuro, call me if anything happens!" Taylor shouted, and the leaves on the side floated up, flew up and down, and fell down. Kuro made a crackling sound, and Taylor knew that the two little guys had heard it.

Casey is the name Taylor gave his Abra.

Pushing his old bicycle out of the door, Taylor saw the shadow of the Viridian City Gym not far away.

"Kanto, Viridian City, Giovanni, what the hell is this start?" Although it was not the first time he saw the Viridian City Gym, Taylor still couldn't help but complain.

When he traveled to the Pokémon world, Taylor didn't know where he was. After he got the system's novice gift package, obtained an identity and a Pokémon orphanage, Taylor realized that he had been sent to Viridian City.

The good news is that Taylor has mastered the Power of Viridian, a very unique power in the Pokémon world.

The bad news is that Giovanni also has the Power of Viridian.

Perhaps it was a strange connection between the owners of the Power of Viridian, Giovanni also knew that Taylor possessed the Power of Viridian, and once tried to pull Taylor to become an elite trainer in the gym, but was rejected by Taylor.

What kind of Pokémon joke is this?

Join Giovanni's gym?

I'm afraid that after just a few days of joining, Giovanni will test me and see if he can be recruited into Team Rocket.

Taylor doesn't want to board Team Rocket's pirate ship.

"Let me see," Taylor took out his phone from his briefcase and took a look at it.

In addition to entertaining people who came to adopt Pokémon today, he also needed to make a return visit.

The person to visit was an old man, about eighty-three years old.

People of this age are not allowed to adopt Pokémon. After all, no one knows when the old man will leave this world, and then the Pokémon will have to face the question of who will be responsible.

However, because the old man was a soldier and had made many contributions to the Alliance, the Alliance specifically explained it, so Taylor naturally gave him the convenience.

Of course, the most important thing is the old man's matching rate of up to 80%.

"Huh, No. 32, Bilan Street, Viridian City?" Taylor looked at the information in his hand, then got on his bicycle and hurriedly rode toward the target location.

When he arrived at the old man's door, Taylor saw the adopted Pokémon at first sight.

"A-Bo!" Taylor waved his hand. Arbok, who was lazily basking in the sun, suddenly raised its head and stared at Taylor with a pair of cold snake eyes, but soon it recognized Taylor's identity.

"Young friend Taylor, have you had your meal?" An old man pushed open the door, and when he saw Taylor, a smile appeared on his face.

"Grandpa Hick, I've already had breakfast," Taylor quickly stopped the bicycle, locked it casually, and smiled a little stiffly.

Hick is the adopter of Arbok, but at that time Arbok was still an Ekans instead of Arbok. Unexpectedly, only two months later, Ekans evolved into Arbok. This really surprised Taylor.

At this time, Arbok also crawled to Taylor's side. It spit out its tongue, wrapped its tail around Taylor's leg and rubbed it affectionately.

"Okay, A-Bo, let me go in first," Taylor touched A-Bo's head, feeling both amused and helpless. This guy has evolved, but he still hasn't changed his habit of curling his tail around people to express his love.
