Not a trainer this time

"One thing, one thing!"

As soon as he returned to the ranch, the baby bear happily ordered food from Naoki. He wanted honey buns, honey gummies, and honey drinks!

"Okay, I'll do it for you." Naoki was also very happy. He turned to look at the Pokémon next to him and asked: "Mew, Victini, Zapdos, Hupa, what about you? "

Mengmeng immediately thought of sweet energy cubes, "miu!"

"Nini~" Victini wanted to eat cookies.

Lightning Bird said with a defiant expression: "Chirp!"

Hoopa looked impatient: "Hoopa wants to eat donuts!"

"Okay, no problem, I'll make it for you right away." Naoki touched the heads of several Pokémon, then turned around and returned to the kitchen to make snacks for them.

The honey gummy honey buns that Baby Bear wants to eat, the energy cubes that Mew wants to eat, and the cookies that Victini likes are all snacks he has made before, so they are not a problem for Naoki.

As for the donuts Hoopa wanted to eat, he really hadn't made them yet.

But this is the Internet age. Although Naoki didn't know how to make donuts, he saw the donut making process through Rotom's mobile phone in less than a minute.

Knead the dough, ferment it, and fry it in a pan…

It's pretty simple.

Naoki recorded the making steps in his mind, and then began to prepare the ingredients needed for these snacks.

At the same time, in the ranch, the heroes expedition team, who had not returned for a long time, looked at the strange and familiar things around them with curiosity.

The environment is unfamiliar to them, but the Pokémon living on this grassland are very familiar to them.

Pokémon such as Frostnake and Ergui who were familiar with the Bears and the others saw the Heroes expedition team coming back and ran over to say hello to them.

"Bonnie~"

"One!"

Hupa looked at so many Pokémon around him and looked very excited, "It's so lively here!"

Baby Bear nodded in agreement: "One!" That's right! Everyone here is a good friend who plays together!

"Hupa likes it here!" Hupa danced happily.

For a time, the entire ranch was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Because it was Hupa's first time here, Mengmeng and Baby Bear acted as his tour guides, taking him to visit the place where everyone lives.

The farmland cultivated by Zhishu, the place where Babu marmots and hens live, the ducks by the pond, the flocks of braided sheep pastures, and the garden where King Lei Guan drinks tea and sunbathes in the sun.

After walking around, Hupa seemed even more excited.

"Hoopa is so happy!"

Suddenly, Hupa saw three "big guys" on the grass not far ahead.

Beside them, stood a very small human cub.

"Who is that?" Hupa asked, curiously flying forward and circling around the small tree.

Mengmeng, Baby Bear and Victini also followed. They surrounded this strange human cub, and an incredible idea suddenly appeared in their minds.

Could this child be...!

But why did she grow up so fast?

Baby Bear clearly remembers that when they set off from the pasture for a trip, the little tree was just a little bit old, couldn't even speak, and lay in the crib all day long sleeping.

But now, the little tree can actually walk!

"What's wrong?" Seeing that several of his companions were silent, Hupa asked in confusion.

Only then did Baby Bear come back to his senses: "One!" (She is Naoki's baby, named Xiaoshu!)

"Miu..." Meng Meng rarely came into contact with humans before, but now he has seen with his own eyes how much the little tree has changed, and it has been a long time since he came back to his senses.

Compared to Mew, Victini knows more.

It used to live in the "Earth Sword" castle with the old king, and had seen many human beings from birth to old age.

"Xiaoshu..." Hupa murmured and repeated the name, and then happily flew to Xiaoshu and introduced himself to her: "Xiaoshu, I am Hupa, Hupa!"

Xiaoshu looked at the Pokémon in front of him, then stretched out his little hand and hugged it: "Huba!"

"It's Hupa!" Hupa corrected.

"Huba!" Xiaoshu still insisted.

Hu Pa is very helpless, okay, Hu Pa will be Hu Pa...

Since this is the first time they meet, it wants to give Xiaoshu a gift!

Thinking of this, Hupa flashed, only to hear a bang, and in a puff of smoke, his appearance changed drastically, from a small Hupa to a one with six thick arms, a big tail, and a fierce look on his face. Big Hupa.

Immediately afterwards, a halo flew out from Hupa's arm, and Hupa put his hand into it and fumbled: "Hupa laolao——!"

But before it finished speaking, it suddenly heard a burst of crying.

Hupa was stunned. When he looked down, he saw Xiaoshu crying and hiding among the three majestic-looking Pokémon behind him.

The three holy beasts cast disapproving glances at Hupa.

Hupa scratched his head in confusion.

What's the matter? Why did Xiaoshu cry suddenly?

Meng Meng couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering: "miu!"

Baby Bear explained: "One!" (She was scared by you!)

Hearing this, Hupa immediately understood.

It decisively transformed back into Little Hoopa, and then summoned the halo again.

The next second, donuts and candies fell from the sky, like a rain of candy, and piled up into a hill on the grass.

Xiaoshu's eyes were indeed attracted by this scene. She seemed to know that this Pokémon had no ill intentions towards her, so she was no longer afraid. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the building made of candies and donuts. of hills.

Hupa popped his head out from behind the hill. He smiled and said, "Hehe, this is Hupa's gift to you!"

Xiao Shu was amused and giggled. She laughed and clapped her hands.

Seeing this scene, the three holy beasts looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

*

Because it took too long to wake up the dough, Naoki’s donuts weren’t ready until the afternoon.

When the donuts came out of the pan, its information immediately emerged from Naoki's mind.

[Donuts (B+): Donuts made with flour, eggs, and fresh moo milk.

Cooking effect: Sweet Honey lv2, greatly improves the friendliness of Pokémon that likes sweets, making it easier for them to get close to you.

Rating: A favorite for sweet tooth lovers! 】

"Sweet honey..." Naoki read out the name. Although this effect didn't have much effect, it was at least better than nothing!

Naoki brought the still steaming donuts to Hoopa, who was already waiting on the sofa.

Even though Hoopa had already eaten a lot of donuts in the morning, he still ate happily.

Donuts, delicious donuts, you can’t get enough!

And Hupa also discovered one thing. The donuts made by Naoki seemed to be particularly sweet, and when he tasted them, he felt the taste of happiness!

Hupa was particularly happy eating there, and Zhishu began to discuss with Qishu about this year's New Year.

It is already December 20th, and in 10 days, it will be the 204th year of the alliance calendar, which is also the seventh year since Naoki came to this world.

Before he knew it, he had started his own family, had his own children, and lived a happy life.

How should we celebrate the Chinese New Year this year?

Regarding this issue, Qishu gave suggestions.

"Celebrate the New Year at home! Hehe, in fact, as long as everyone is together, it doesn't matter where you celebrate the New Year!"

Naoki quite agreed with this: "That's right."

In this case, just live normally as before.

On the last day of December in the alliance calendar year 203, Naoki went to Ohana Town to buy some fireworks and new year goods.

In the evening, the family and the Pokémon eat New Year's Eve dinner in the pasture and set off fireworks.

With the sound of the midnight clock, 203 officially came to an end, followed closely by the new year 204.

As soon as the New Year is over, the snow begins to melt and everything begins to revive in the spring sunshine.

The temperature is gradually getting warmer everywhere, and the family has officially decided to move back to the Padia area.

With Hupa here, this move was very convenient. It transformed into Liberation Hupa, and its six auras flew out and landed at the same time, forming a series of portals connecting the Padia region.

Mounted goats, braided sheep, large milk cans, and ghost horses lined up to walk through the portal.

Soon, only Naoki's family of three and Gulton and the others were left at Alola Ranch.

"Does Naoki want to go back now?" Hupa looked over and asked.

Naoki shook his head: "I still have something to do."

"Then Hupa is waiting for you here!" Hupa put away his halo.

Naoki rode Gulton to the place where he had been fishing.

He shouted for a while, and soon the ball sea lion swam ashore.

"Qiuqiu Sea Lion, we are leaving. Do you want to go with us?" Naoki asked.

"Qiuqiu?" Qiuqiu sea lion looked over in confusion.

Naoki smiled and explained: "We came here for vacation. Now that winter has passed, we have to go home. We may not have the chance to fish here again in the future. I thought that in that case, I might never see you again." So I wanted to come over and ask you if you want to go back with us."

What he said is correct. Although they will come to the Alola region for vacation in the future, wild Pokémon may not always live in the same place.

During this period, it is possible that the sea lions in Qiuqiu left this coast and went to other places. In that case, it would be difficult for them to meet again.

Qiuqiu sea lion understood. It blinked as if it was thinking seriously.

Zhi Shu was not in a hurry, patiently waiting for Qiu Qiu Sea Lion's answer.

After a while, Qiuqiu sea lion gave the answer.

"Ball!"

During this time together, he quite liked this human being. He was not angry when he ate so much of the other's bait. Not only that, he also brought him a lot of delicious food.

However, it seems that there is still a commission that has not been completed.

"Qiuqiu..."

Taking advantage of others' short hands and eating their soft mouths, it has been helping to find traces of the Pokémon named Kyogre.

It's a pity that there has been no news after such a long time.

Naoki was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I'm just curious about that Pokémon, I don't necessarily want to find it."

If that little Kyogre really came to the Alola region from another world through the Ultimate Cave, it might not have appeared at this time.

The ball sea lion suddenly realized: "Ball!" So that's it!

Naoki smiled, and then extended his hand to invite: "Now, can you go back with us?"

"Ball!"

The ball sea lion jumped up happily.

"Gulton, let's go!"

The purpose of this trip has been achieved, Naoki rode on Guulton and returned to the ranch.

"Hoopa, please!" Naoki said.

"Leave it to Hoopa!" As Hoopa's voice fell, a light spread in front of Naoki.

Before going in, Naoki looked at the Pokémon of the Great Hero Expedition Team and asked: "Do you want to stay here?"

"Miu!" Mew nodded his little head.

That's right! They found that this place called Alola Region is quite large. In this case, they will start their journey from this place this time!

"Okay." Naoki nodded with a smile: "In that case, I wish you a pleasant journey!"

"miu~"

"Goodbye, Hoopa, Baby Bear, Dream, Zapdos!" Naoki waved to them, and then passed through the halo with Gultun and the others.

The next second, they crossed countless spaces and returned to Tree's home.

Looking at the familiar scene around him, Naoki couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Finally back!

After three months away from home, the ranch seemed a bit messy. Next, they had to tidy up the ranch!

The group divided the work and cooperated. Yan Di, Lei Gong and Shui Jun were responsible for taking care of Xiao Shu, Qi Shu and Ai Guan Shi were responsible for cleaning the house, and Naoki took Gultun and Motor Lizard to work on the ranch.

After a winter, the grass on the lawn grew messy. Naoki took a lawn mower and trimmed the lawn clean and flat.

There were many leaves on the ground. Dragonite used Storm to blow, and the leaves flew all over the sky.

"Gah!" Motor Lizard opened his eyes wide.

Gulden also glared at Dragonite.

Dragonite scratched his head embarrassedly. It just wanted to help blow the leaves together with Storm! As a result, it accidentally failed to control its strength and overexerted itself.

It hurried forward and picked up the leaves with its claws.

"Ah Gah..."

Gulden and Motor Lizard looked at each other helplessly, and then stepped forward to help.

There were also many ripe fruits in the orchard and apple orchard. After a winter, these fruits have begun to rot and look dirty.

Naoki put on gloves and kept shuttling in the orchard to pick up the fruits on the ground and throw them away.

No one has lived there for a long time. Maybe because of the lack of popularity, the Pokémon House where the Chicken House and the Milk Tank live are a bit dilapidated.

I don’t know if it was damaged by wild Pokémon, but there was a hole in the roof of the chicken coop.

Naoki took a ladder and a wooden board, climbed up and repaired the place where it might leak.

Naoki went around the periphery of the ranch again, checked the damage of the fence, and then found tools to repair the fence.

When all the work was completed, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

After everyone's hard work for an afternoon, the whole ranch was brand new.

Naoki looked at everything in front of him with satisfaction, as well as the Pokémon playing in the ranch, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Well, now it finally looks like a home again!"
