Joyful Pokémon Get Stronger? Then I Won't Be a Trainer - Part 14

It's time to evolve!

"Want to evolve?"

Lin Feng used Evergreen Power to ask the past.

o_o ...: "Bloop bloop~"

Two bubbles represented the Feebas's emotions.

"Alright, got it."

Lin Feng smiled, picked up the fish tank, and walked back to the Plantation. He poured the water and the Feebas directly into the pond.

"Bloop bloop?"

This time, the Feebas was clearly panicked.

The overly spacious swimming area made it think it was being "released" again.

"Don't worry..."

Lin Feng took out a Nourishing Energy Cube and handed it to the Feebas in the water. "I'm not putting you back in the river this time. Just help me guard the Plantation here, and water the plants while you're at it~"

After conveying the meaning through Evergreen Power, Lin Feng pulled out the Perfect-grade Prism Scale.

"Perfect-grade... combined with your current beauty, it should boost your aptitude quite a bit, right?"

With Lin Feng's reassurance, the Feebas's emotions stabilized significantly.

It let Lin Feng pick it up and place the Prism Scale over the spot where its scales were missing...

As if some ritual was complete, a dazzling White Light enveloped the Feebas. Within the light, the Feebas's originally small body began to stretch and elongate, becoming slender.

In just a moment, it grew to a length of seven or eight meters.

When the White Light faded, the creature before him truly made Lin Feng reluctant to blink.

Its slender body was creamy and full, with two flowing pink whiskers like willow catkins on its head, and two wider ribbons around its neck.

Its tail fanned out in overlapping shades of blue and light red, casting a shimmering, iridescent glow.

No wonder they said that in the Pokémon World, nothing was more beautiful than a Milotic.

In that moment, Lin Feng truly felt that beauty.

[Pokémon: Milotic] [Gender: Female] [Ability: Marvel Scale] [Aptitude: Golden] [Strength: Level 23-28] [Skills: Water Gun, Water Pulse, Tackle, Enchanting Voice, Aqua Ring, Twister, Dragon Tail, Recover] [Friendship: 97 (It trusts you unconditionally)] [Joy Value: 70 (In a good mood.)]

Chapter 14: Using the Grass Whistle in the Grass Whistle! Advanced Edition!

Golden Aptitude...

The Feebas had only been Green Aptitude before. Lin Feng had expected a jump, but he never imagined it would be this big.

It had gone straight to Golden Aptitude.

"Yooou~?"

[Congratulations, host! Milotic's Joy Value has increased from 70% to 98%. Reward: 20 bags of Golden Fertilizer, one Intermediate Rare Candy (moderately boosts Energy Strength), and one Rain Dance skill disc.]

Just then.

Milotic also snapped out of the afterglow of evolution, staring in disbelief at her own reflection on the water's surface.

Her mind had never been clearer.

Evolved?

Every Feebas knew it could evolve into a Milotic.

But they also knew how low the probability of a Feebas evolving into a Milotic was.

Most Feebas would stay Feebas for their entire lives...

Only a rare few might succeed in evolving through some accident.

It was as dreamlike as a Carp Leaping Over Dragon Gate.

So, the Feebas had never imagined that one day, it too could evolve into a Milotic...

It had thought Lin Feng's words back in the fish tank were just to cheer it up.

"Yōu yōu~!" (Evolved~!)

"Yes, you evolved!"

After evolving into Milotic, Lin Feng's Evergreen Power could now clearly understand the meaning expressed in her words.

"Yōu yōu..." (So happy~!)

Seeming a little too overjoyed, Milotic couldn't help but wrap her tail around Lin Feng's body, as if about to lift him high up.

The sudden loss of gravity and the suffocating sensation like being coiled by a python made Lin Feng shout out in discomfort.

Then, he watched as Milotic swam around with him in this small Water Reservoir.

"Alright, alright, Milotic, put me down."

Holding onto Milotic's body with both hands, Lin Feng said helplessly.

Although he could understand Milotic's emotions.

If this kept up, he'd really end up soaked, wouldn't he?

"Yōu~~"

A long, melodious cry rang out. Milotic seemed to realize this too, and her body gently, tremblingly set Lin Feng down.

"Your body's too big now; living in a fish tank is impossible. For now, stay here, watch over these plants, and help me water them when you have time, okay?"

"Yōu yōu~!"

Milotic nodded seriously.

After evolving, she could feel that her mind had become much sharper. Unlike before, when she had to take a long time to understand what Lin Feng meant after hearing one sentence.

"Then I'll leave it to you~"

Lin Feng said cheerfully.

"Téng téng~?"

Beside them, Snivy, who had witnessed all this, couldn't hide the shock on her face.

Although she also knew that Pokémon could evolve, a transformation like this—from ugly to beautiful, the most extreme sublimation—was truly the most incredible thing about life.

She should be evolving soon too, right?

Feeling the energy that had been stirring restlessly lately, Snivy suddenly felt a bit of anticipation.

"Don't worry, you're close too..."

As if sensing her mood, Lin Feng smiled and patted her head.

But inwardly, he still felt a little wistful.

The evolution had come too fast.

He hadn't gotten to hold her enough yet~

The next day.

July 12th.

Two days left until the Baby Cup began.

With Milotic in the Plantation, Lin Feng no longer had to get up early and stay up late supervising Squirtle's watering.

With Milotic's golden talent, after teaching her the Rain Dance skill disc, she had mastered it in an instant.

She could condense water vapor in the air within a small area to irrigate.

That was also the reason he had sent Squirtle back.

Since Rain Dance was already learned, this silly turtle could "retire."

Too bad...

Squirtle's arms were too short, otherwise in two days, he could have had it cut the pasture grass...

On the Bluestone Path.

Lin Feng looked at Snivy, who was full of fighting spirit, and couldn't help but nod.

The Plantation was temporarily established, so for the next period, he planned to focus on the Baby Cup!

Leaving two days for Baby Cup training should be enough~
