Not a trainer this time

This time Naoki learned a lesson. Because there were too many Pokémon in the ranch, in order to avoid not getting enough points, the buns he made were very small.

In addition, the Phoenix King's rainbow feathers are quite large, and this pot of Naoshu can steam more than twenty steamed buns.

Although there is not enough food for all the Pokémon in the ranch, it can still make the best use of everything.

I just don’t know if Phoenix King will be furious after knowing that he made its feathers into steamed buns...

According to the setting in the game where players can summon the Phoenix King through rainbow feathers, it is very likely that the Phoenix King can sense the existence of feathers.

If that was the case, King Feng might have known about him turning feathers into steamed buns by now.

Naoki suddenly felt worried. Will King Feng come over to punish him?

But as a chef who can make magical dishes, he couldn't control himself when he saw that feather!

"Forget it, if Phoenix King comes over and gets angry, I'll apologize to him then." Naoki thought, he actually quite liked Phoenix King in his heart.

Because although the Phoenix King left Yuanzhu City because of the war between humans, it never gave up on humans from the beginning to the end. Instead, it kept wandering in the sky and gave rainbow feathers to kind-hearted humans.

Thinking of this, Naoki took this pot of steamed buns and found the Pokémon playing in the snow.

First of all, the Pokémon that need these sacred buns the most are the three Eevee brothers who evolved early.

For Fire Eevee, the sacred steamed buns can enhance the power of the flames in its body.

Although it has no effect on Leib and Water Eevee, it can help them strengthen their physiques and make them grow stronger.

Ash bibimbap is no joke.

The three Eevee ate the steamed buns one after another. The changes in Ray Eevee and Water Eevee were not obvious after eating them, but Fire Eevee was different.

"Booy?!"

Hearing an exclamation, Huo Yibu turned around nervously, because bunches of golden-red flames shot out uncontrollably from its body.

The Water Eevee on the side was very nervous when he saw this scene. He immediately opened his mouth and used the water gun at the burning Fire Eevee.

The flames were extinguished by water cannons, and large plumes of white smoke came out.

But then, before the Ibrahimovics could breathe a sigh of relief, another fierce flame shot out.

Mizuibu wanted to do it again, but Naoki quickly stopped it.

"Don't worry, this won't hurt Fire Eevee."

"Boo?" Shui Yibu stopped and stayed next to Naoki to watch the changes in Fire Yibu.

I saw the flames on Fire Ibrahimovic burning more and more intensely, as if there was a volcano in its body.

Fire Eevee felt that his whole body was now full of power, and the flames condensed in his throat. He closed his mouth tightly, and his cheeks were held up high by the huge fire attribute energy.

It wasn't until he couldn't hold on any longer that Huoyibu violently sprayed out the flames with a loud roar.

The long flame turned into a thick fire snake, and the scorching heat instantly melted the snow on the ground.

Brothers Shuiyibu and Leiyibu stared at this scene in stunned silence.

"Bu Yi!" is so powerful!

"Buyi!" Huoyibu's face was filled with excitement.

Seeing this, Naoki guessed that the energy contained in the sacred steamed buns ignited the fire Eevee's flames. Its body could not contain it, so it exploded.

But looking at it now, Fire Ibrahimovic's transformation has been completed.

Because Naoki noticed that the orange-red fur on its body had become darker, and it was very similar to Entei, one of the three holy beasts.

Naoki nodded with satisfaction. Well, in this way, the bodies of the three Eevee that had been lost due to early evolution would be made up for.

He said goodbye to the Eevee and turned around to go to the World Tree to feed the steamed buns to the three Pokémon of the Heroes Expedition.

On the way, Zhi Shu conveniently fed a sacred steamed bun to Pokémon such as Gullton, Ergui, Kuailong, Baboo, Frost Milk Fairy, Flapping Hair, and Motorized Lizard.

When he arrived at the reverse world, he only had three steamed buns left.

But here we only see Lightning Birds, but not Mengmeng or Baby Bear.

It wasn't until Naoki called out that the two Pokémon appeared.

One Pokémon for Mew, Baby Bear, and Zapdos.

"alright!"

After the buns were distributed, Naoki clapped his hands with satisfaction.

He just didn't see Meng Meng and Baby Bear in the tree, so he asked, "Where were you just now?"

"miu!"

Mew looks very happy.

It covered its mouth and laughed for a while, and then launched a move: teleportation.

The next second, Naoki felt that he had changed to a different place. There was no longer a void around him, but a small wooden room filled with toys.

Seeing those toys, Naoki reacted instantly.

"Is this a secret base you built with secret power?" he asked.

Obviously, this is already inside the World Tree.

"miu!" Meng Meng nodded repeatedly, yes! This is the secret base of the Heroes Expedition Team!

Naoki looked around and nodded: "Very good. I will build two small beds for you in a while and bring them over, and then you can sleep on them."

"miu~miu~"

Hearing this, Mew happily flew around Naoki.

And the baby bear also coquettishly said with a happy face: "One~"

Just as he was told, that afternoon, Naoki used the only remaining wood in the ranch to build two small beds suitable for Dream and Baby Bear, and sent them to their secret base.

The two Pokémon were very happy. That night, they stayed at the secret base and slept peacefully with various toys.

The Lightning Bird was sleeping on the branches of the World Tree.

With a fixed base and stable supplies, judging from the current situation, the Heroes expedition team has begun to take shape.

At this time, if that Pokémon is around, it can provide more help to the Hero Expedition.

Yes, that's the super-demon god of light, Hupa.

Hupa's ring can travel through space. Even in the remote Sinnoh region, as long as Hupa is there, you can get there from Padia in an instant.

If Hupa also joins the heroes expedition team, it will be more convenient for the baby bears and their journey.

But Hupa is still sealed in the Desert City in the Kalos region...

Thinking of this, Naoki found the Hero Expedition Team early the next morning and told them the story of Hupa.

"A long time ago, in a desert town called Desert City, a Pokémon named Hoopa appeared in front of the people there."

"Hupa took some food, but then gave the town a lot of money, which made the town more and more prosperous and the people there worshiped him very much."

"Until one day, people in the town wanted to see how powerful it was, so they asked Hoopa to fight other Pokémon. In order to prove that he was strong, Hoopa defeated many powerful Pokémon."

"The moves it used were extremely powerful and destroyed the entire town. At that time, a human came to Desert City. He sealed Hupa's power, so that Hupa could only live an ordinary life."

"Until Hoopa understands the meaning of punishment, it will have to live on the appearance of little Hoopa. Not only that, it has also lost the ability to freely travel through the aura."

The three Pokémon on the Hero Expedition listened quietly to Hoopa's story.

When Naoki finished speaking, Baby Bear asked in confusion: "One?"

Naoki explained: "Hupa's personality is very similar to yours. Although it is very naughty and playful, it is a kind-hearted Pokémon. If you encounter it in the future, you can invite Hoopa. Join the Heroes Adventure Team.”

Meng Meng was a little worried: "miu?" (It's so powerful, won't it destroy our pasture?)

Naoki: "So, you have to help it understand the meaning of friends and punishment. By then, Hupa will surely be able to control his power."

But the premise is that the heroes expedition team can meet Hupa.

Upon hearing that Hupa also needed help, Baby Bear immediately patted his chest and promised, "One thing, one thing!"

No problem, they'll try to help Hoopa!

Helping Pokémon in need is the purpose of the Hero Adventure Team!

Saying goodbye to Baby Bear and Dream, Naoki delivered the basket of tree fruits he had brought this time to the tropical dragon.

Although the grass-type tropical dragon can replenish nutrients in its body through photosynthesis, it cannot deny food to others.

That would be too much.

Seeing a basket full of fruits, the tropical dragon showed a happy expression.

It made a friendly cry to express its gratitude, then lowered its head, buried its head in the basket and ate the fruit.

Naoki looked at this scene with a smile: "Eat, eat! If it's not enough, there will be more in the ranch!"

Now with the help of the green grass energy from the mount goat, the fruit trees in the pasture will bear fruit very quickly.

In just three days, the empty branches will be filled with huge and plump fruits.

Not far away, the mounted goats were happily eating grass dumplings.

Looking at this group of Pokémon with shiny coats and strong bodies that he raised, Naoki's heart was filled with a sense of satisfaction.

Soon, Tropical Dragon finished the fruit in the basket. When Naoki was about to leave here and return to the pasture with the empty basket, Tropical Dragon lowered his neck and gave the banana fruit on his neck to Naoki.

"For me?" Naoki was a little surprised.

The tropical dragon nodded its huge head happily.

This time it sent out all five banana fruits around its neck in one go.

The harvesting characteristic was triggered again, and two banana fruits appeared on the chin of the tropical dragon.

Seeing this, Tropical Dragon gave the two banana fruits to Naoki.

This time, perhaps due to the cooldown of the Harvest trait, no more fruit appeared on the Tropical Dragon's chin.

Although he had seen it last time, Naoki couldn't help but feel magical when he saw the harvest characteristics again.

I have to say, Pokémon is truly a magical creature!

Naoki glanced down at the bananas in the basket.

[Tropical Dragon's Banana Fruit: The fresh fruit picked from the Tropical Dragon has a sweet taste and a full texture, and can be used to make dishes. 】

"Thank you, I like these fruits very much." Naoki reached out and touched the tropical dragon's head.

Then he said goodbye to the tropical dragon and returned to the ranch.

"I wonder what kind of effects Tropical Dragon Banana will have when made into dishes."

With anticipation, Naoki went to the kitchen, and after thinking about it for a while, he prepared to make a hot fried banana.

First, coat the peeled bananas in egg wash and bread crumbs.

Next, heat the oil in a pan, and when the oil is about the same temperature, add the prepared bananas.

The oil in the pot was sizzling, and soon the bananas were fried into golden brown.

Naoki turned off the fire and put the fried bananas into the white porcelain plate with chopsticks.

[Fried Banana (C): A dish made by deep-frying the fruit from the neck of a tropical dragon. It is crispy on the outside and waxy on the inside. The sweetness of the banana neutralizes the taste, making it taste sweet but not greasy.

Cooking effect: The fruit is ripe and is limited to the tropical dragon. After the tropical dragon eats it, the growth rate of the fruit will be greatly increased.

Evaluation: As the saying goes, you are what you eat! 】

Naoki: "..."

"Did it speed up the growth of Tropical Dragon Fruit?" Naoki murmured.

If he remembered correctly, tropical dragon fruits ripen twice a year under normal circumstances.

Wild tropical dragons will spread pollen from their necks in spring and fall, and by summer and winter, the fruits on their necks will be fully ripe and ready for harvest.

This growth cycle is too slow compared to other Pokémon.

Judging from the current situation, Tropical Dragon eats a lot of tree fruits every day, and what is produced is not as much as it is consumed.

I really don’t know how the Tropical Dragon Ranch in the Alola region makes money. They can’t sell these bananas at a high price, right?

Naoki thought it was impossible, because he remembered that the Tropical Dragon illustrated book clearly stated that children in the Alola region would eat Tropical Dragon bananas as snacks.

“I don’t know what the cooking will look like after it’s accelerated.”

From two crops a year to three or four crops a year?

That remains to be seen.

After pondering for a moment, Naoki found the tropical dragon, fed it fried bananas, and gave the remaining fried bananas to the Pokémon in the pasture.

*

In winter, except for Zach, almost no one would come to the countryside, let alone the trainers passing by.

No one came to the ranch, and Naoki was happy to be free. Besides feeding Pokémon, he didn't need to do any farm work.

Therefore, Naoki stayed at home all day watching TV, browsing the web, and petting furry Pokémon.

The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it came to the end of the 199th year of the league calendar.

On this day, the Rotom mobile phone developed by Rotom Technology Company was finally released.

Once this mobile phone, which was easy to carry and came with its own Pokémon guide, communication, and map navigation, came out, it immediately caused an uproar around the world.

On the third day of the sale of the Rotom mobile phone, the mobile phones in major stores were snapped up by enthusiastic people.

Some people buy it for work, some use it as a camera, and some parents buy it as a gift for their son who is about to go on a trip.

And those who cannot buy mobile phones can only look at Rotom Technology Company with resentment.

Nikkar, the boss of Rotom Technology Company, was also shocked by the popularity of this Rotom phone.

Although he had expected it in advance, he didn't expect it to be so hot.

Facing those people who had not bought a mobile phone, he could only hold a press conference and announce that the company would produce the next batch of Rotom mobile phones as soon as possible to ensure that everyone can use the new mobile phones.

In this case, Internet companies located in major regions have also noticed this new type of portable mobile phone.

They have begun to develop electronic apps suitable for Rotom mobile phones.

All of a sudden, all kinds of software have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, from communication and dating to current affairs forums, to various video websites, live broadcasts, and mobile games.
