Not a trainer this time

March 31, 202 in the Alliance Calendar, the last day of spring, Niangguang Gym was on rest today, Qishu stayed in the pasture, helping Zhi Shu with some simple tasks.

Once spring is over, hot summer follows. Before the season changes, all crops in the farmland must be harvested and then sown with summer crop seeds.

The couple piled the harvested crops into the warehouse together, and then went to the orchard to pick ripe tree fruits.

Qishu went to the chicken hut to collect eggs with the help of Babu Woodchuck, while Naoki went to collect rock salt from the underground cave where the Salt Djinn and the Three Gophers lived.

By the time everything was done, it was already noon.

Qishu took out a handkerchief from somewhere, stood on tiptoes to wipe Zhishu's sweat, and then said with a smile:

"Are you tired? I'm going to cook. I've recently learned two new dishes. Let me give you a taste of my cooking!"

Zhi Shu bent down to make it easier for Qi Shu to wipe his sweat. A smile appeared on his face and he said, "Okay, then I'll go to the apple orchard to see how the apples are growing."

"Yeah, let's go!"

Qishu went home to cook, while Zhishu took Gullton to the apple orchard on the other side of the river.

There are a lot of apple trees planted here, and each apple tree bears large and plump fruits. After being cultivated by Zhishu and Mount Goat, its quality is no less than the red apples from Beishang Township. .

But often this kind of top-quality apple will attract many Pokémon, and Fruit Gnawer is one of them.

There was a fruit-gnawing insect on the tree before, but that one had evolved into a plum dragon and was sent to live on the World Tree by Naoki.

After carefully checking the apple orchard, Zhi Shuguo unexpectedly saw several newly moved fruit-gnawing insects.

Therefore, Luton stepped forward and sniffed their bodies. The fruit-gnawing insects were so frightened that they immediately shrank and shivered.

Naoki: "..."

"Okay, Guluton, stop scaring others." Naoki said helplessly.

Naoki had no intention of driving these Pokémon away.

The fact that fruit-gnawing bugs are willing to live in the apple orchard means that his apples are growing well, and the food intake of fruit-gnawing bugs is very small. If the scale is not particularly large, the damage to the apple orchard will be minimal.

As for whether fruit-gnawing insects will multiply in large numbers in the future and lead to disasters...

Naoki thinks we should talk about it later!

At worst, he will call on the new trainers who come to the ranch to challenge him and entrust them with the task of conquering the fruit-gnawing insects.

After checking the apple orchard, Zhishu went to the braided sheep pasture to check on the condition of the braided sheep.

This group of braided sheep were lying leisurely on a hillside, basking in the sun and eating grass.

Just looking at them makes people feel relaxed and happy, and their mood even gets better.

Zhi Shu stayed here for a while, and not long after, he heard Qishu's cry.

"It's time to eat!"

Naoki stood up, smiled and said to Gu Ledun:

"Let's go, let's go back!"

"Ah!" So Luden immediately stood up and followed.

When one person and one Pokémon returned home, his little sister, Ai Guiyang, had already brought the food to the table.

The table was covered with food, which looked very rich.

Qishu grinned and said: "How is it? My sister and I prepared it together!"

"Aye~" The younger sister Ai Guanshi on the side also nodded happily.

Steamed sea bass, pan-fried pork chop, mapo tofu, cold cucumber, steamed egg with shrimp...it looked very rich. Naoki gave a thumbs up without hesitation: "It's amazing!"

"Hey, don't look who I am! Call everyone back for dinner! I've also prepared special goat's milk snacks for Babu and Eevee!"

As Qishu spoke, the expression on her face suddenly became a little ugly. A feeling of vomiting came to her heart, and she subconsciously covered her mouth.

"Ah gah?"

Guledun and Electric Belly Frog, who were waiting for the meal, immediately looked over here.

Um? Noticing this scene, Naoki frowned and quickly stepped forward to pat Qishu on the back:

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Are you tired from working in the morning? Don't do it next time, just leave it all to me."

After a while, the feeling subsided a little, and Qishu looked a little lackluster.

"I don't know what's going on recently..."

Hearing this, Guluton seemed to understand something. It suddenly realized and turned its gaze to Qishu's belly: "Ah, geez!"

After it made such a cry, other Pokémon around it also looked over.

Motorcycle lizard, little sister who cares about the maid, fairy Eevee, Babu groundhog...

"Huh?" Qishu looked puzzled: "What's wrong with my stomach?"

Seeing this situation, Naoki was stunned, and an unbelievable thought suddenly came to his mind.

Could it be...? !

The next second, the two looked at each other, and Qishu miraculously understood what Naoki meant.

Vomiting, getting tired easily, loss of appetite...could she be pregnant with a baby?

"It can't be true, right?" Qishu felt as if he was in a dream.

"I don't know. After eating, go to the hospital for a check-up." Naoki forced himself to calm down and helped Qishu sit down: "Are you feeling better now? Let's see if there is anything you want to eat. You won't be able to eat again without me. I’ll do it for you alone.”

"Hehe!" Qishu giggled: "I want to eat the boiled fish you made!"

"Wait, I'll do it right away." Zhi Shu looked at Babu and Guledun: "You eat first, don't wait for me!"

He hurried to the kitchen, took out the fish he bought from the Zhiqin market in the morning from the refrigerator, and started cooking it.

At the dining table, Qishu caressed his belly with a curious expression on his face.

Is she really going to have a baby?

The Pokémon on the side also realized what had happened.

A happy expression appeared on my sister's face: "Oh~" It seems that there will be another little life in the family soon~

Therefore, Leton is looking forward to it very much. Little master, will he be able to see his little master soon?

The scene of the last parting was still vivid in my mind. The little master took its paw and asked it when it would come back...

And now, it really wants to say something to its little master: It is back.

Babu Groundhog, on the other hand, was full of curiosity. He also had a mother and a father and knew what it meant to have a baby.

Naoki's children... they can become good friends like in "Warm Lava Bug House" in the future, right?

"Bamo!" I'm so looking forward to it! Then they can play hide and seek together!

Zhi Shu quickly made a bowl of boiled fish. After lunch, he handed over the affairs of the ranch to his siblings, while he drove Qishu in his car and went to Guluton and Motorized Lizard. I accompanied him to Zhiqin Town Hospital.

The doctor at the hospital was startled by Gu Ledun. After understanding the purpose of their visit, he began to examine Qishu.

Soon, the results came out.

"Congratulations, this lady already has a baby in her belly." The doctor smiled and looked at the young couple.

Hearing this, Naoki felt a loud bang and was stunned.

What? Really pregnant...

Does this mean that he will be a father soon? !

The image of a lovely child in the future, holding his hand and calling him daddy in a childish voice, appeared in his mind, and Naoki suddenly felt tears filling his eyes.

Very good!

"Be careful when you go back. Don't overwork yourself. Pay more attention to rest and supplement nutrition, so that the baby will grow up healthily." The doctor warned.

"Okay!" Zhi Shu's mind started to heat up, and he said to Qishu on the way back: "From today on, you can rest at home, don't go to the gym, and take a pregnancy leave with Yici!"

Although Qishu was also very excited, when he saw Naoki like this, he was speechless: "...How can it be so exaggerated?"

"You also heard what the doctor said." Zhi Shu repeated: "Pay attention to rest and don't overwork yourself. Zhiqin Town and Niangguang City are so far away, and Kuailong flies too fast. What if you accidentally get sick?"

"I shouldn't be that fragile, right?" Qishu felt a little unconfident after hearing these words. She originally thought it was nothing.

"You still have to pay more attention." As he said that, Zhi Shu took out his mobile phone, dialed Ye Ci's number, explained the situation to her, and wanted to help Qishu apply for a long vacation.

"Congratulations." Yeci's smiling voice came: "It's just... if Niangguang Gym is not operating for such a long time, it will affect this year's league competition."

Yeci's voice sounded a little embarrassed,

This year, the Padian League has undergone reforms and plans to hold league competitions similar to those in other regions, allowing trainers who have collected eight badges to compete against each other to determine the strongest.

But now, there is a problem at Niangguang Gym...

Qishu also felt that this was a bit uncomfortable: "It's not that exaggerated! I feel pretty good now, and Pokémon battles don't require intense exercise, you just need to use your mouth to command."

Naoki: "..."

He began to reflect on whether he was too nervous.

Ye Ci on the other end of the phone raised the corners of his mouth slightly as he listened to the conversation between the couple.

She pretended to be nonchalant and said, "However, if you can find an excellent trainer to help with the Niangguang Gym, I think Qishu can have a good rest."

"What?" Zhi Shu and Qi Shu were both slightly startled.

Yeci explained: "In the Padia area, this kind of thing is allowed. Qishu's gym is an electric-type gym. As long as you find six electric-type Pokémon, and their strength is not lower than the gym owner, A trainer at the level can help Qishu take over.”

Is this still possible?

Naoki was surprised, but the question was, where could he find a trainer who met this requirement to be the temporary master of the Niangguang Gym?

etc!

Naoki suddenly thought of something.

Although he is not a professional trainer, he still has some electric Pokémon around him, and their strength is not lower than the gym leader level.

So, can he?

Thinking of this, Naoki asked: "Can I?"

Hearing this, Qishu was slightly startled and looked over in disbelief.

But Ye Ci on the other end of the phone said with a smile: "Of course you can! Naoki, your strength is obvious to all of us. As long as you have six electric Pokémon, you can take over for Qishu."

Electric Pokémon...

Babu Tubo counts as one, Leibu counts as one, and the Lightning Bird is still on the World Tree and can also come to help.

In addition, there is Pikachu brought by Mewtwo, but including the Pokémon on the World Tree, there are currently only four Pokémon in the ranch.

"Of course, it's not limited to electric Pokémon." At this time, Ye Ci spoke again: "If the attribute of a Pokémon when it is crystallized is electric, then it can also appear in the gym battle!"

This solved Naoki's urgent need. There are so many Pokémon on the ranch and the World Tree, there must be Pokémon with crystallized electricity.

In this case, he just needs to go back and use the crystal energy to see which other Pokémon is crystallized electricity.

Thinking of this, Naoki agreed: "Okay, I'll take over."

"Then it's settled!" Ye Ci said with a smile: "I'll help you register the gym owner information, and the Brewing Light Gym can take a temporary break for three days. During these three days, you can get familiar with the work of the gym owner with Qi Shu first, and then go directly to the gym to receive challengers."

"Okay." Naoki nodded and agreed.

After the phone was hung up, the smile on Ye Ci's face could no longer be concealed.

"I am indeed a foresighted person." Ye Ci said.

Xin Li: "..."

*

After returning to the ranch, Naoki immediately began to use the Taijing beads to check the Taijing attributes of the Pokémon in the ranch.

From the mount goat to the Saltstone Giant, and then from the Saltstone Giant to the Braided Sheep.

However, after checking for a long time, Naoki regretfully found that none of the Pokémon in the ranch had the Taijing Electric attribute...

Qi Shu followed behind and said, "If it doesn't work, I can also give you the command of the Electric Belly Frog!"

"Don't worry, I'll go to the World Tree to have a look." Naoki replied, "If it doesn't work, I'll talk about it later."

After that, he passed through the reverse world and went to the World Tree to test the Taijing attributes of the Pokémon there.

Mienshao is Taijing Ice, Milion is Taijing Dragon, Oliva is Taijing Grass, Charizard is Taijing Flying...

Jirachi saw that it was so lively here, and ran over to join in the fun.

Naoki helped it check, and with a bright light flashing, a yellow light bulb with lightning runes appeared above Jirachi's head.

"Huh?" Jirachi looked at his head in confusion.

Naoki breathed a sigh of relief, the fifth "electric" attribute Pokémon was found.

"Jirachi, are you willing to do me a favor?" Naoki asked.

"Of course! Jirachi is willing!" Jirachi replied lively, because Naoki had helped it, so now it was its turn to help Naoki!

Naoki breathed a sigh of relief.

Babu, Jolteon, Zapdos, Pikachu, Jirachi.

"..."

The only problem is that these Pokémon are too strong, which may be a little difficult for challengers, but the Brewing Light Gym, as an electric gym, can only use Pokémon with electric attributes...

Forget it, those trainers will suffer for these ten months, at most he will let them go!

Including Jirachi, there are currently five electric-attribute Pokémon.

He only needs one more, and he can have six electric-attribute Pokémon.

However, fate often teases people like this. After checking for an afternoon, Naoki never saw another electric-attribute Pokémon.

Although Babu Tubo's parents are also electric-attribute Pokémon, they work on the World Tree and are old. They are at the age of retirement and good life, and are not suitable for fierce Pokémon battles.

Naoki said goodbye to everyone on the World Tree and returned to the ranch.

"Have you found it?" Qishu asked.

Naoki shook his head: "There is still one missing."

"Then I'll leave the electric-belly frog to you!" Qishu said. She had already talked to the electric-belly frog today, and the electric-belly frog happily accepted this.

Naoki was about to say hello, but at this moment, he suddenly received a message from the King of Phoenix.

[King of Phoenix: Naoki, are you looking for an electric-attribute Pokémon? ]

Naoki was slightly stunned.

[Ho-Oh: Jirachi told me that it was happy to help you. ]

[Wing King: Yes, there is only one left. ]

[Ho-Oh: So, I think I can help you with this. ]

Ho-Oh refers to Raikou. According to the time, Raikou and the others will probably arrive at the ranch soon, right?

It just so happens that Raikou can help the Rainbow Hero and let them get to know each other better.

However, Naoki did not understand what Ho-Oh meant.

[Wing King: What? ]

[Ho-Oh: You will see it soon. ]

Seeing this message, Naoki was stunned.

See it? What is Ho-Oh talking about? Judging from what it means, is there a Pokémon on the way to the ranch?

Wait! Naoki suddenly thought of an electric-attribute Pokémon related to Ho-Oh.

It should not be Raikou, one of the three sacred beasts, right?

What is going on? Raikou and the others are on the way to the ranch?

Naoki was a little confused. After some contemplation, he quickly calmed down and decided to observe the situation before making a decision.

As for now... he should name his baby!

Late at night, Naoki sat at his desk and looked up information.

Seeing this, Qishu was very helpless: "Is it too early to name the baby now?"

"Too early?" Naoki asked puzzledly: "If you choose a good name now, you don't have to think about it later!"

Qishu thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case, so she also joined the naming queue.

In the end, the couple selected more than a dozen names together.

Hideki, Yuuki, Yuuki, Xiaoshu, Yuuki...

Looking at these names, both Naoki and Qishu were a little undecided.

"How about calling her Yushu for girls, and Yushu for boys?" Qishu suggested, but within a few seconds, she shook her head again: "It seems that Xiaoshu is not bad either! I really want them all!"

Naoki: "..."

He shook his head helplessly, thought about it carefully, and suddenly noticed Gu Ledun beside him from the corner of his eye.

Naoki brought the piece of paper to Gulton.

"Ah?" Gu Ledun raised his head.

Naoki smiled and said to it: "Guluton, we are going to give the baby in our belly a name, but we still can't decide which one to call it. Can you see what you like?"

With that said, Naoki read out the name on the paper.

"Youshu, Youshu, Xiaoshu..."

Listening to these names, Guluton blinked. He looked down at the paper placed in front of him. The image of his little master appeared in his mind, and then he raised his big paw without hesitation and put it in it. On top of a name.

"Xiaoshu?" Qishu saw the name, and she was very surprised: "Xiaoshu...Xiaoshu, hehe, it seems good, it sounds pretty cute!"

Therefore, Leden nodded in agreement: "Ah gah!"

"In that case, it's decided." Seeing the appearance of one person and one Pokémon, Naoki said with a smile: "If it's a girl, let's call him Xiaoshu, if it's a boy, let's call him Yushu!"
