Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World
#86 - Bud Crown King Doll
The moment the words were spelled out, the surrounding environment seemed to remain unchanged!
Guangtai glanced at the luminous moss in the flower pot, then opened the window to look at the nearby land.
The land illuminated by the setting sun remained the same, with no signs of an 'early harvest'.
Whoosh—the wind blew in through the window, carrying a white vanilla bean. Guangtai held it, speechless, unsure whether it was brought about by his scholarly abilities or the power of Calyrex.
"As expected, it's Calyrex the weak."
Calyrex was the legendary king who ruled Galar in ancient times, classified as the King Pokémon. It possesses great intelligence and is said to see through everything—past, present, and future. Also known as the King of Bountiful Harvests, it has the power to heal hearts and make plants sprout. It is said that when it waves its right hand, hundreds of flowers bloom and grass grows lush, and when it waves its left hand, the fields become fertile and crops abundant.
Furthermore, Calyrex differs from many Legendary Pokémon in that it gains power by absorbing faith. If it loses faith, its power weakens.
As for its appearance, it looks like an upright rabbit with a giant broccoli on its head?
Of course, Calyrex isn't the only Pokémon with similar powers. There's Celebi in the Johto region, known as the Guardian of the Forest, and Shaymin in the Sinnoh region, a Mythical Pokémon that can transform barren land into a sea of flowers. However, Calyrex is more specialized in cultivating crops than they are.
However, over the long passage of time, the people of the Crown Tundra forgot about the legendary king. The disappearance of faith caused Calyrex's power to plummet, even to the point where it couldn't control its two steeds, let alone ensure a bountiful harvest.
Additionally, the wooden statue of Calyrex in the Crown Tundra is missing its head. Its statue is worshipped in the wrong form and treated as a local tourist attraction. The fact that no one noticed the error in the sculpture is a major factor in Calyrex's loss of power.
"Celebi's power is more effective in the Johto region, but now that I've spelled out Calyrex's name, I naturally have to do something."
Guangtai muttered to himself and sincerely made a wish:
"Legendary King of Bountiful Harvests, please protect the land of Shindu!"
This might provide Calyrex with some faith. Of course, in Guangtai's view, the power Calyrex needs is more like 'remembrance' than traditional faith.
It needs people to know it exists, to know what it looks like, to call its name, to believe in its power, and to remember its achievements.
However, having only his own faith is not enough, and Guangtai thought of another way.
Previously, a customer had suggested he make merchandise like dolls and had pre-ordered a Lapras doll with no time limit. At the time, she also inquired about Ice-type items.
He couldn't obtain items like Never-Melt Ice, but perhaps Volo, the traveling merchant, might have some.
However, making dolls was no problem. After acquiring a batch of goods from the village, the workshop had enough materials to sew a batch of dolls.
This was when the 'Powerful Textile Craft' would come in handy.
Although most of the time he only used this craft to make Focus Sashes, it could actually be used to make special cloth products with powerful effects!
"It might be a little boring to make ordinary Substitute Dolls or Clefairy Dolls. The customer ordered a Lapras doll, so before making the Lapras doll, I have a bold idea."
"I'll try making a Calyrex doll first!"
Guangtai retrieved needles, thread, cotton, and sturdy fabric. He also found paper and a pen, first sketching out Calyrex's rough image, and then making it according to the description on the drawing to reduce the probability of errors.
"My memory is still clear... It's done."
This was just a simple drawing, not exactly a work of art, but Guangtai found that his painting skills were decent, and the things he drew always had a relic-like style. Perhaps, as he had thought before, the carving style he obtained from the Shindu Ruins could not only be used for carving but also helped with painting.
Guangtai began to sew the fabric according to the shapes in the drawing. The village didn't have many fabric colors, but fortunately, Calyrex didn't have many colors on its body.
Green, blue, gray, white... These basic colored fabrics were cut into specific shapes by Guangtai, while cotton and Pokémon materials were stuffed in for sewing. Since Calyrex is a Psychic/Grass-type Pokémon, Guangtai chose Abra's fur + Petilil's leaves, along with some Grass-type related materials, to fill the doll.
The sun gradually set, and the light outside the window began to fade. The Pokémon sat in the fields, watching the sun rise and set, the stars rise, issuing joyful cries, and their relationships became closer.
And Guangtai finished making the doll!
"Filling complete, the final sewing is done!"
Guangtai looked at the doll in his hand, about 20 centimeters tall. This size was considered a small doll, and the fabric was sturdy cloth, not plush, so the surface felt a little hard, but the craftsmanship was very exquisite. Immediately, some thoughts began to emerge in his mind:
[Craft: Pokémon Doll - Calyrex design.]
[Description: A doll sewn according to the appearance of the legendary King of Bountiful Harvests, using a unique craft and adding materials from Pokémon of corresponding types, creating a spiritual resonance, so this doll has corresponding unique abilities.]
[Effect 1: Heart Healing - The Calyrex doll can heal injured hearts, relieve psychological barriers, and strengthen mental power.]
[Effect 2: Bountiful Faith - The Calyrex doll can make plants sprout and flowers bloom. The more you believe the Calyrex doll can do this, the faster the plants will grow; disbelief renders it ineffective.]
[Effect 3: This is an item that can attract the attention of Pokémon, and may allow you to escape during battles with wild Pokémon.]
"It works if you believe, and it doesn't if you don't. It really is a Calyrex-characteristic doll. Speaking of which, aren't the first two abilities the powers Calyrex itself possesses?"
"But, as expected, dolls made of hard fabric don't look very good. It's better to use plush fabric. It just so happens that my goods haven't arrived yet, so I'll buy some more plush fabric. I still have some funds left."
As for the third ability, don't all doll-like items have this ability? It's just throwing it out to distract wild Pokémon!
Afterwards, Guangtai decided to send a message to that Unova customer.
"Psychic Glasses," "Gravity Bracelet," and "Calyrex Doll"—these three items should satisfy that customer's requirements to some extent!
At the same time, promoting the Calyrex doll could expand Calyrex's faith to some extent, allowing its power to recover. Guangtai helped Calyrex because he wanted to establish a connection with it to fleece it, and more importantly...!
The latest novels are first published on 69shu!
Calyrex possesses the ability to make a plant called 'Gleaming Flower' bloom, and the fabric woven from Gleaming Flowers and the manes of the two steeds is called 'Fabric that Shines in the Light,' a dreamlike material. The important item 'Reins of Unity' needs this material to be made!
"I really want to see that material in person!" A look of longing rarely appeared in Guangtai's eyes.
-----
The southernmost part of the Galar region, Crown Tundra.
Just like the image in Guangtai's memory, Calyrex, with its small, upright rabbit-like form and a huge crown-shaped bud on its head, opened its eyes from a weakened state.
A faint power of faith came from a distant land, very accurate. There was no doubt that someone in this world remembered its appearance and might even know its story.
Incredible!
Even the descendants of the humans it had protected, the villagers of Freezington, could not accurately say its appearance and name. Although the fairy tale of the King of Bountiful Harvests still circulated in this ancient land, its real name... the villagers said 'Lei Guan Yang' and 'Lei Gan Tang'!
That was too far off, a bit too outrageous!
Now it had lost its faith, lost its power, and even its two steeds had abandoned it and left! How long would this desolate situation last?
Calyrex sensed the power of faith from that distant land and couldn't help but feel sad.
『I miss my steeds, my faith, my reins...』
While feeling emo, it used its weak power to sense the direction of the faith and vaguely saw something through the distant space... Was that its head?
Was it a doll?
Calyrex stared at its doll through the distant space. For some reason, it suddenly felt that the depressed emotions in its heart had disappeared a lot, and its mental state gradually improved.
Without a doubt, although separated by a great distance, Calyrex had a feeling that the change in its mental state just now was caused by seeing 'its doll'!
『Who are you? This power seems to come from me, but it's not quite the same...』
『...Even if I ask here, you won't be able to hear my voice. If only we could meet somewhere...』
『Too far away... If only you were in Galar.』
Calyrex closed its eyes again with regret. It was still a bit weak, so it needed to rest for a while.
The dream seemed to become a little pink.
