Pleased Pokémon Make You Stronger? Then Don't Be a Trainer, Section 49

"Heh... with this, this kid shouldn't be so anxious anymore."

Chapter 53: Trainers Flock to Town in Search of Gardevoir!

July 28th.

The first day after the cow shed was built.

The second day since Pidgeotto absorbed Moltres's Divine Feather.

Perhaps it was due to the promotion by that content creator a few days ago, but the Breeding House had seen more customers lately, and the Pokémon they brought along were generally much stronger.

This allowed Lin Feng to receive much richer rewards from their Pokémon.

Occasionally, he would be rewarded with good Berries.

Moreover, a mysterious piece of news had somehow spread and was rapidly propagating.

"Are you here in Wutong Forest to find a Gardevoir?"

"Yes, yes, you too? What a coincidence, me too."

"Alright then, we're rivals!"

"Damn it... how about a battle between Trainers? Whoever wins gets to have the Gardevoir!"

Conversations like these were happening outside the Breeding House from time to time.

It was as if someone was deliberately spreading this news, luring Pokémon Trainers to search for Gardevoir in the forest.

Watching another middle-aged Trainer hurriedly purchase Stamina Energy Cubes in the shop, Lin Feng fell into thought.

Wutong Forest was developed ten years ago. According to statistics from that time, the most common Pokémon there were Beedrill and Spearow.

Especially in the central area, which was a sea of flowers, the number of Beedrill was particularly high, almost dominating the entire area.

"The Trainers these days seem to be getting stronger and stronger. Could it be that the news is true?..."

Listening to the system's notification sound, Lin Feng felt a stirring of desire.

This was a Psychic-type Pokémon that had already reached its final evolved form! A Gardevoir that almost no one could refuse.

For him, with just a little bit of training, he could directly bring it to work (scratch that) as an employee!

Of course, the prerequisite was that the Pokémon had a desire to find a Trainer.

If it yearned for freedom, then there was nothing he could do.

Compared to battling and capturing, Lin Feng preferred to "tempt" Pokémon with his delicious food and actions.

Moreover, after being in this world for so long, he hadn't truly and actively gone out to capture Pokémon in the wild.

"Let's go!"

Lin Feng made up his mind and immediately went to the Plantation.

Then he looked at Pidgeotto on the tree, "Pidgeotto?"

Compared to a few days ago, Pidgeotto today was undoubtedly much more confident, radiating a dazzling glow all over its body, with a faint hint of fire flickering.

Upon closer inspection, its feathers indeed had a faint flame flickering, making its already orange-yellow feathers appear even more magnificent.

"Pidgey~"

Pidgeotto swooped down, trailing a brilliant tail flame, and affectionately nuzzled Lin Feng's head.

[Pokémon: Pidgeotto]
[Gender: Male]
[Ability: Keen Eye]
[Potential: Red]
[Individual Values: HP (24) Attack (28) Special Attack (27) Defense (17) Special Defense (17) Speed (26)]
[Strength: Level 24-27]
[Skills: Gust, Tackle, Quick Attack, Whirlwind, Air Slash, Steel Wing, Gale Wings, Twister, Mist, Heat Wave.]
[Affection: 98 (Trusts you unconditionally!)]
[Joy Value: 75 (Get stronger quickly and reclaim your territory!)]

After absorbing a Moltres's Divine Feather, although its body now carried flames and it looked more like Moltres, it had actually only learned the Heat Wave move.

But its potential had indeed increased significantly.

The destination this time was Wutong Forest, and the one most familiar with Wutong Forest would naturally be Pidgeotto.

Therefore, for this trip, Lin Feng planned to bring it along with the Grass-type Snivy.

"I need you to accompany me to Wutong Forest... the location of your territory. I want to find a Pokémon."

"Pidgey? Pidgey!"

Upon hearing that they were going to its homeland, Pidgey immediately perked up and nodded seriously.

"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you to enter the Poké Ball for now."

Lin Feng took out Pidgeotto's Poké Ball and put it away. After thinking for a moment, he spoke to Milotic in the water reservoir, "Milotic, I might be going into the forest. Do you want to play in the river outside?"

These past few days, he had noticed a problem: the water reservoir was simply too small, which, to some extent, made Milotic a bit unhappy.

He thought that in the future, he would find an opportunity to widen the water channel a bit, so Milotic could go to the river as she pleased.

"Yu yu~?" (Take me with you?)

"Mm, there shouldn't be any battles this time, so I won't bring you. If you want to play, you can stay in the river."

"Yu..."

Milotic let out a somewhat disappointed "Oh," then shook her head and hid beneath the water's surface, staring intently at Lin Feng through it.

She conveyed that she was fine staying here and didn't need to play in the river.

Lin Feng didn't insist. He glanced at the Miltanks in the cowshed and saw they were eating green dumplings. Feeling like he had nothing else to explain, he went to his room.

Inside the room, Snivy was supervising Alolan Vulpix learning how to cover its paws with Ice-type energy.

Lin Feng didn't have very high expectations for Alolan Vulpix.

If it liked battling, it could become stronger through battles. If it didn't like battling, it could grow healthily and evolve at an appropriate time.

It was even okay if it didn't evolve.

But!

Alolan Vulpix absolutely had to learn how to cover its feet with Ice-type energy, because Lin Feng didn't want to watch it walk into the plantation every time and get its pristine white fur all dirty, and then step on the floor of the Breeding House.

Especially since it would also step on the bed.

He really didn't want to be mopping the floor all the time!

"Ying ying~?"

(/▽＼): "Ying ying ying~"

Alolan Vulpix on the ground, which had been diligently removing the ice from its paws, immediately became happy and showed off upon seeing Lin Feng, "Ying ying!"

Look, I can remove the ice from my paws!

"Good, well done."

Lin Feng praised it with satisfaction and gave it an Energy Cube as a reward. The little one happily hugged it and began to nibble.

He didn't waste any more words. After coaxing Alolan Vulpix into its Poké Ball, he explained the reason to Snivy.

Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Snivy said somewhat wistfully:

"Teng teng?" (So, you're getting new Pokémon again?)

Chapter 54: Guidance from Lucario

"Ah?"

Hearing Snivy's slightly resentful voice, Lin Feng was taken aback, then said, "Isn't that a good thing? I've always wanted to catch a Psychic-type Pokémon, so it would be more convenient to pick fruits and vegetables in the future."

"Teng teng." (I understand.)

Snivy pursed its lips, thinking that it was indeed the case, and nodded. However, it sighed silently in its heart.

It missed the time before it evolved.

But now that it had evolved into this form, would it still have a chance to snuggle in its Trainer's arms?

"Alright, let's go!"

Lin Feng didn't think much of it. He just informed Qin Shu, who was watching the shop, and then quickly headed towards Wutong Forest with Snivy.

Passing by the Bluestone Path, they soon arrived by the river.

This river had no bridges connecting it, acting as a barrier for some wild Pokémon trying to reach the town.

However, for Trainers with some strength, this was basically not a problem.

Only when one was in the wild would they realize how important a flying Pokémon was.

Walking along the river, until they were some distance away from the town, Lin Feng stopped when he saw an old wooden house on the opposite bank of the river. He then released Pidgeotto.

"Pi ge~"

Seeing the familiar place, Pidgeotto's spirit clearly lifted.

Lin Feng turned to Snivy, "Snivy, why don't you go into your Poké Ball first?"

Pidgeotto's body was still too small and could probably only carry Lin Feng alone. If he insisted on carrying both Lin Feng and Snivy, he would have to hold Snivy with his body.

"Teng teng? Teng teng!"

Snivy was stunned for a moment, then shyly indicated, "Teng teng..." (You can hold me like before...)

"Alright~" Lin Feng chuckled. Ever since Snivy evolved into its current form, he hadn't had the chance to openly hold it.
