Chapter Summaries

Lin Feng tested Alcremie's Metronome with Uncle Liang's Pokémon, and Alcremie summoned powerful moves that overwhelmed both Gyarados and Venusaur. The chapter ended with the onlookers stunned and Venusaur wary of Alcremie.

• Uncle Liang recalled a past Dominion Tournament match in which a Togekiss used Metronome to summon Burn Up and nearly defeated his Venusaur.
• Lin Feng agreed to let Alcremie test Metronome on Uncle Liang's Gyarados, and Alcremie called down Thunder, paralyzing it in one hit.
• Lin Feng healed Gyarados with a Super Potion and Evergreen Power, then Uncle Liang released his Venusaur for another test.
• Alcremie used Metronome again and summoned Stone Edge, launching Venusaur into the air and leaving it badly hurt.
• Lin Feng treated Venusaur while Blaziken and Dragonite watched, and Venusaur stared fearfully at Alcremie.

Lin Feng tested Alcremie's Metronome after its unexpectedly powerful moves, discovering that the moves it produced seemed tied to its state of mind. He concluded that Alcremie could draw on its own thoughts to shape Metronome, though the chapter left the exact limits of its ability uncertain.

• Alcremie recovered with an Energy Cube, and Uncle Liang recalled Venusaur before escaping from the strange lava pillars.
• Lin Feng asked Alcremie to use Metronome on him, but it refused until Dragonite volunteered and protected itself.
• Alcremie produced a weak Water Gun against Dragonite, then a tiny Ember and Attract against Blaziken and Gardevoir.
• Alcremie used Baby-Doll Eyes on Lin Feng, who melted at its cuteness and praised it.
• Lin Feng realized Alcremie's Metronome moves might depend on its intentions, connecting its earlier Shadow Force, Thunder, and Stone Edge to its wish to flee or defeat an opponent.

Lin Feng kept the lingering Stone Edge created by Groudon’s power and prepared to contain it, while Kyogre briefly awakened and sensed the earth power. The next day, another Pidgeotto evolved, and Ye Mu arrived in Wutong Town to visit the Miltank as local visitors discussed Lin Feng’s Pidgeot challenge.

• Lin Feng had Dragonite and Blaziken dig a trench around the persistent Stone Edge and planned to have Pidgeot guard it.
• Kyogre awakened in an undersea cavern, sensed weak earth power coming from the direction of the Donghua League, and fell asleep again after finding its rival inactive.
• On November 8, another of Lin Feng’s Pidgeotto evolved, leaving only two unevolved among the original group of twenty.
• Lin Feng considered the growing number of Pidgeot and the possibility of starting provincial express deliveries, then followed Rotom to meet a guest who had come to see the Miltank.
• Ye Mu arrived in Wutong Town and noticed its improved road and increased visitors as teenagers discussed Lin Feng’s Pidgeot challenge.

Ye Mu visited Lin Feng’s Breeding House and discovered that the Moo Moo Milk from the Miltank he had sold Lin Feng was exceptionally high quality. Lin Feng came out to meet him, while Sprigatito rested at home and watched him leave.

• Ye Mu overheard teenagers discussing challenge stages and rewards, then reached Lin Feng’s thriving orchard in early winter.
• Inside the Breeding House, Ye Mu saw the Pokémon staff, cakes, Energy Cubes, and Moo Moo Milk priced at nearly five figures.
• Indeedee and Rotom showed Ye Mu the milk’s certification and gave him a sample to taste.
• Ye Mu found the milk surpassed the quality of his own Miltank’s milk and asked to see Lin Feng’s Miltank.
• Lin Feng greeted Sprigatito, which had grown to a normal size and preferred resting quietly by the fireplace.
• Lin Feng entered the Breeding House and found Ye Mu waiting beside the register.

Ye Mu visited Lin Feng to check on the Miltank and was astonished by the Plantation’s powerful Pokémon, abundant harvest, and high milk output. After seeing that the Miltank were thriving, he said goodbye to Lin Feng and prepared to leave.

• Ye Mu asked whether Lin Feng had prepared winter fodder, and Lin Feng assured him that the Miltank’s food was ready.
• Lin Feng led Ye Mu through the Plantation, where Ye Mu saw the enormous milk yield, Dragonite, Serperior’s Grassy Terrain, and several other powerful Pokémon.
• Lin Feng showed Ye Mu the Cow Shed and its stores of liquor, then introduced him to the Miltank.
• The Miltank told Ye Mu they were happy, well-fed, and producing plenty of milk.
• Satisfied that the Miltank were thriving, Ye Mu prepared to leave, while Lin Feng invited him to stay for dinner.

Lin Feng reunited a customer with his Treecko and learned the man was pursuing a childhood dream of becoming a Trainer. He then began planning a dish to attract Giratina, settling on using Pujiu Wine and deciding to buy chocolate.

• Ye Mu left town after seeing Lin Feng's flourishing Plantation and realizing how much it had grown.
• A customer brought his Treecko to visit Lin Feng, and the timid Pokémon warmed to him and accepted an Energy Cube.
• The customer explained that he had caught Treecko to fulfill his childhood dream and planned to try Lin Feng's Sky Challenge with it.
• Lin Feng considered Giratina's fondness for Pujiu Wine and Ghost-type Pokémon's need for Life Energy while planning a dish.
• Lin Feng got the idea to make something with Pujiu Wine and flew to the Plantation to buy chocolate.

Lin Feng made Chocolate with Liquor in many flavors and discovered that the Moo Moo Milk version had effects suited to getting Giratina drunk and docile. He tested it on Blaziken, which passed out after eating four pieces.

• Lin Feng made assorted Chocolate with Liquor, including a large Moo Moo Milk version intended for Giratina.
• Lin Feng found that the Moo Moo Milk Chocolate with Liquor had effects including Poor Alcohol Tolerance, Drunk, Sweetheart, Don't Be Angry, and Truth Serum.
• Lin Feng called over Blaziken to test the chocolate and warned it that the filling contained alcohol.
• Blaziken insisted it could handle the liquor, but it became dazed after three pieces and toppled over while reaching for a fourth.
• Lin Feng caught the drunk Blaziken, which mistook him for several people and hugged him.

Lin Feng’s delivery service increased orders at the Breeding House, and he learned that Primarina had evolved. Primarina reunited with Lin Feng and received so much praise from the gathered Pokémon that it blushed and was left at a loss.

• Lin Feng placed Chocolate with Liquor on wine barrels to lure Giratina and returned to prepare lunch.
• As a cold snap drove visitors away, Lin Feng’s province-wide delivery service brought a surge of orders, and he called down the last unevolved Pidgeotto.
• Gardevoir told Lin Feng that Primarina had evolved and teleported him to the Plantation.
• Primarina joyfully told Lin Feng it was happy to have evolved after being abandoned and losing hope.
• Alolan Vulpix and Dragonite praised Primarina’s appearance and voice, leaving it embarrassed and attracting the Eevees’ attention.

Lin Feng prepared Energy Cubes with an incomplete Silver Feather to help the Pidgeot control wind and fly faster. After feeding his Pokémon at lunch, he gave Serperior extra liquor chocolates when she wanted more, and she went to her room to sleep it off.

• Ajiu, Asan, and Awu praised Primarina until she dove into the water and hid from Milotic’s admiring gaze.
• Lin Feng inspected Primarina’s status and then went to the kitchen to cook with the incomplete Silver Feather.
• Lin Feng and Gardevoir made twenty-one SSS+ Energy Cubes that gave Flying-type Pokémon greater control over wind, increased flight speed, and the Favor of the Sea.
• Lin Feng and Gardevoir fed the Pokémon in the garden, and Lin Feng gave Serperior extra Peachy Fruit-flavored Chocolate with Liquor when she remained unsatisfied.
• Serperior ate enough chocolate to become flushed, then returned to her room to sleep while Lin Feng prepared to distribute the Energy Cubes to the Pidgeot.

Lin Feng fed his Pokémon before giving the Pidgeots Ocean Current Energy Cubes, which granted them powerful control over wind. After seeing one Pidgeot unleash and quickly stop a gale, Lin Feng considered using their new abilities in a Sky Challenge Plus.

• Lin Feng fed Chocolate with Liquor to the Pokémon that gathered around him, while Gardevoir declined and helped the Indeedee sister clean up.
• The last Pidgeotto evolved into a Pidgeot, and Lin Feng gave each Pidgeot an Ocean Current Energy Cube, warning them to control their energy.
• The Pidgeots felt they could create wind without flapping their wings, so Gardevoir carried one above the forest to test its power.
• The Pidgeot unleashed a gale across the forest, then stopped it immediately when Lin Feng called out.
• The Pidgeot discovered it could control the wind like a limb and flew at more than twice its former speed, reassuring Lin Feng about its takeout deliveries.
• Lin Feng proposed adding a Sky Challenge Plus featuring Pidgeot attacks and strong winds, while Gardevoir recalled his earlier plans for her.

Lin Feng welcomed Mewtwo back and received the black Poké Balls it had made, which could restrain powerful Pokémon. At the challenge grounds, Lin Feng introduced a harder Plus version of the Sky Challenge, leaving the challengers facing Pidgeot’s sustained winds.

• Lin Feng found Giratina had taken the wine barrel and Chocolate with Liquor, so he left out another, smaller serving.
• Mewtwo returned after more than twenty days away and showed Lin Feng a black Poké Ball it had completed.
• Mewtwo explained the balls could restrain Pokémon as strong as Goodra, and Lin Feng accepted a Storage Ball containing many of them.
• Lin Feng went to the challenge grounds, where Lu Huo complained that the Sky Challenge was too difficult for his Pikachu.
• Lin Feng had Pidgeot maintain strong winds across the field and announced a Plus version of the Sky Challenge, requiring challengers to dodge or attack within the winds.

Lin Feng introduced a more difficult Sky Challenge format and agreed to show the final stage after the group asked to see it. He chose Gardevoir to face the Pidgeots, and she reluctantly accepted despite having just returned and started eating.

• Lin Feng explained that challengers could choose a wind-enhanced Sky Challenge with double rewards.
• The group asked Lin Feng to demonstrate the final-stage challenge, and he brought the enormous Pidgeot leader down for them to see.
• Lin Feng described a final stage requiring challengers to endure attacks from every Pidgeot for three minutes and then hit each one with a move.
• Lin Feng decided Gardevoir was the best candidate to face the Pidgeots, aside from Mewtwo.
• Gardevoir stopped cooking for Mewtwo, put away her apron, and agreed to take the challenge.

Lin Feng brought Gardevoir to the challenge area and announced that she would face all the Pidgeots in the final-stage challenge. As the Pidgeots unleashed a powerful wind around her, Gardevoir remained completely still, and Lin Feng urged them to attack.

• Lin Feng led Gardevoir out of the Breeding House, drawing surprised reactions from the waiting challengers who recognized her as a Shiny Pokémon.
• Lin Feng explained that the final stage required dodging attacks from all the Pidgeots for three minutes, and the crowd worried that Gardevoir might be hurt.
• Lin Feng assured everyone that Gardevoir could clear the challenge and invited them to record her performance.
• Gardevoir floated into the center of the Pidgeots’ formation as they created a fierce, controlled gale around her.
• The wind surrounded Gardevoir without moving her gown, while the spectators felt only a gentle breeze; Lin Feng then promised the Pidgeots an extra lunch meal if they hit her.

Lin Feng demonstrated the Sky Challenge as Gardevoir dodged the Pidgeot flock’s attacks and then effortlessly restrained them all. The onlookers were left amazed, while Lin Feng led Gardevoir away to prepare a meal for the Pidgeot.

• Pidgeot Boss led the flock in attacking Gardevoir, which used Teleport to evade their strikes.
• Lin Feng explained the Pidgeot’s attack cues and told the crowd to observe battles and give timely instructions.
• When the three-minute challenge ended, Gardevoir restrained the Pidgeot flock with psychic power and flicked each one on the head.
• Lin Feng called the demonstration the final level of the Sky Challenge, then left with Gardevoir to make the Pidgeot a meal.
• The Pidgeot returned to their posts as the challengers asked to share and post recordings of Gardevoir’s display.

Lin Feng reassured Feng Yang about the strange gale and watched Mewtwo grow closer to the Breeding House’s Pokémon. He then taught Mewtwo to make dumplings and found the Pujiu Wine was being consumed faster than before.

• Lin Feng explained the abnormal wind pillar to Feng Yang and sent him the Sky Challenge video link.
• Feng Yang recognized the energy as connected to Lugia and the Legendary Birds, then decided he wanted to see what challenge had caused the commotion.
• Lin Feng found Mewtwo letting Goodra hold his hand after she eagerly sought his attention.
• Mewtwo learned to make dumplings with Lin Feng and agreed to cook all the Pokémon’s Winter Solstice dumplings.
• Lin Feng checked the Pujiu Wine Barrels, found that a barrel and the Chocolate with Liquor had disappeared in two days, and replenished the chocolate.

Lin Feng discovered a mutated Peachy Fruit Tree whose fruits let Pokémon change size, and Serperior wanted to become small enough for him to hold again. Lin Feng made a limited-time version of the fruit’s effect and left the tree under Serperior’s watch.

• Serperior led Lin Feng to a Peachy Fruit Tree bearing five mutated fruits that allowed consumers to change size according to their wishes.
• Serperior asked to become small enough for Lin Feng to hold it like he had when it was a Snivy, and Lin Feng agreed to study a temporary version of the effect.
• Lin Feng picked the five fruits and decided to reserve two while using the others to make Energy Cubes.
• Lin Feng made twenty cubes that allowed size changes up to twice the consumer’s original size, then made forty cubes that allowed changes up to three times the original size for eight hours.

Lin Feng made Size-Changing Energy Cubes that let Pokémon adjust their size, and Alolan Vulpix chose to evolve after learning she could stay small afterward. She became Alolan Ninetales and discovered that her larger body made her old leap into Lin Feng’s arms impossible.

• Lin Feng made A+-class Size-Changing Energy Cubes from Peachy Fruits and explained their effects to the Pokémon at lunch.
• Alolan Vulpix asked whether she could shrink after evolving, and Lin Feng confirmed that she could use the cubes to do so.
• Serperior told Lin Feng that five more Peachy Fruits had grown, easing his concern about the supply of cubes.
• Lin Feng gave Alolan Vulpix the SSS-class Ice Stone, and she evolved into Alolan Ninetales.
• Alolan Ninetales pounced on Lin Feng and licked his face, then used her tails to lower herself beside the Eevees.

Lin Feng watched Alolan Vulpix evolve into a powerful Alolan Ninetales and discussed with several Pokémon when they wanted to change size. As construction neared completion, he looked forward to moving everyone into the new house and its custom rooms.

• Alolan Ninetales declined Lin Feng's Energy Cube, while Serperior also said she was not ready to use one.
• Lin Feng asked Primarina and Milotic whether they wanted to live in a large aquarium at the villa during winter, and both agreed.
• Gardevoir returned and told Lin Feng that the new house would be finished in five or six days.
• Lin Feng thought about the house's Pokémon-sized rooms, lighting, sleeping spaces, and the aquarium planned for Primarina and Milotic.
• The Indeedee siblings carried the Alcremies toward the Breeding House, while Dragonite flew back to his post.

Lin Feng was pulled into the Distortion World, where Giratina confronted him about the dwindling Pujiu Wine and Chocolate with Liquor. He negotiated a passage back and permission to take some Reversed Soil, then returned safely to the Cow Shed.

• Lin Feng entered the Cow Shed and was dragged into the Distortion World.
• Lin Feng saw Giratina beside the Pujiu Wine Barrel and learned it had summoned him because the Chocolate with Liquor had decreased.
• Lin Feng explained that the treats were his and proposed trading Pujiu Wine and Chocolate with Liquor for free passage into the Distortion World.
• Lin Feng asked to take some Reversed Soil, and Giratina agreed to his requests.
• Lin Feng returned to the Cow Shed, where Serperior and Gardevoir checked that he was unharmed.

Lin Feng explained to Gardevoir that he had lured Giratina with Chocolate with Liquor, and Gardevoir scolded him for taking the risk without backup. Later, Serperior admitted it wanted to get stronger, leaving Lin Feng wondering which Legendary Pokémon could help it.

• Lin Feng told Gardevoir that Giratina was connected to the Distortion World and that he had used Chocolate with Liquor to draw it out.
• Gardevoir reprimanded Lin Feng for risking a confrontation with Giratina and told him to wait until Mew and Mewtwo were home next time.
• Serperior left for the Plantation, determined to get stronger after hearing about Giratina and Rayquaza.
• Lin Feng planted several seasonal vegetables in flowerpots using soil from the Distortion World.
• Lin Feng found Serperior using Grassy Terrain in the Plantation, and Serperior told him it wanted to get stronger.
• Lin Feng considered how Alolan Ninetales and Blaziken had grown stronger and began thinking about Legendary Pokémon associated with the Grass type.
