Unexpected Reinforcements
Just then, the entire Forest suddenly fell silent.
Gray figures suddenly appeared in various parts of the Forest, their sharp, cold glints filled with dissatisfaction and anger.
"Ta-qiu!!"
A small Sentret creature, twice the size of a small Sentret, jumped down from the tree, then put its hands on its hips and sternly reprimanded the small Sentret.
"Ta... Qiu..."
Little Sentret's ears perked up immediately, then it hugged its tail and remained silent.
"Thunder..."
The Kecleon behind him opened its mouth as if to say something, but when it saw the stern gaze of the Sentret, it immediately became timid and stopped talking.
Then the Sentret raised its tail, turned around, and revealed a pair of Sharpness claws.
Just as Dian Da realized something was wrong and was preparing to flee.
"Akane!!"
The Sunkern in the haystack seemed Astonish and cried out sharply.
"Akane?!"
"Akane! Akane!"
"Akane?!!"
As the Sunkern Growl, countless others responded in the Forest, instantly creating a tremendous commotion.
One by one, the Sunkern hopped out and immediately surrounded the group, then glared angrily at Sentret opposite them.
"Ta-qiu..."
Sentret took a step back and glanced upwards sideways.
"Oh!!"
A majestic voice rang out, accompanied by the appearance of an adorable white and brown Pokémon shaped like the letter "I," with a long, white and brown tail that was connected to its body, and small, delicate pointed ears.
If it weren't for its extremely authoritative voice, this Furret would actually look cuter than the Sentret.
"Ta-qiu."
Sentret retracted its claws, then immediately bound the two mischievous children with its tail, jumped behind Furret, and stood ready.
"Qian, huh?"
With a deeper, more resonant Growl, a Pokémon that looked like a sunflower darted out from the side and began confronting Furret.
"Oops!"
Furret shouted seriously.
"Akane, Akane!"
The Sunflora glanced at its own Sunkern, which was trembling with fear, and shouted back twice.
For a moment, the atmosphere froze, as if it had reached freezing point.
The Skiploom shielded the Sunkern behind its back.
Dian glanced around and quickly pulled the Misdreavus Miss, who was still engrossed in eating, back to the Sunflora's side. It was crucial to be on the right side now, or else they would be attacked from both sides.
The Sunflora glanced at the Palace and the Misdreavus, then let them enter its own territory.
This time, it was partly because of the Sunkern, and partly because the group of Sentret had crossed the boundary. In the past, it was fine if one or two small children ran in to play, but this time the leader led the whole group over, which made it nervous.
If we let them continue like this, how will we live together in the future?
Just when both sides felt that the fight was inevitable, suddenly, a loud, buzzing sound filled the air.
The Furret opposite them then adorably picked up its beautifully groomed long tail and gave the order to retreat, "Oh!!"
The Sentret behind it wasted no time, and a series of gray shadows quickly retreated.
When the Sentret had almost completely retreated, Furret back and gave the others a serious look before transforming into a white shadow and disappearing into the towering Daiki.
After seeing the look in Furret, Dian understood that Daiwei Li didn't care who started the fight or who was in the right; he was clearly someone who would side with his own people regardless of who was right.
That meaningful look was a warning that he should let today's matter slide, but if they encountered each other again, well...
As the Sentret Clan departed, the Sunflora gradually calmed down. It Yawn, then leaped and disappeared into the depths of the jungle.
The Sunkern colony then returned to calm and happily burrowed back into their homes.
"Qian, huh?"
Sunkern peeking out from behind the Skiploom quietly peeked out with one of its little eyes, looked around, and then chirped happily.
"Hana."
The Skiploom gently nuzzled against it.
The once weak and listless Hoppip has not only evolved into Skiploom, but also seems to have become stronger, showing the resilient side of the Grass-type Pokémon's personality.
Seeing the Skiploom's growth, Dian was greatly pleased. Then, looking at the Misdreavus beside him, still eating non-stop, carefree and happy, he sighed again.
"Dream?"
The Misdreavus lifted its head, which had been engrossed in its food, and looked around before realizing that the Sentret Clan had disappeared.
Moreover, the Sunkern population has also disappeared.
She tilted her head in confusion. Hadn't she already planned to run away? That's why she ate like crazy so as not to regret it. If she had known it would turn out like this, she would have savored it properly. Honestly!! Couldn't she have just said she was leaving earlier?!
Misdreavus frowned in displeasure. Suddenly, she glanced to the side and saw Beedrill with Zubat flying back quickly from afar.
Three Beedrill followed beside her. When they were almost there, the three Beedrill glanced at Misdreavus and the others, then turned and left.
Whoosh!
Upon seeing the two terrifying Pokémon appear, Sunkern once again hid behind Skiploom, peeking out with one small eye in fear, "Akane..."
"Hana, hana."
The Skiploom offered some words of comfort, then pushed the Sunkern forward.
"Akane..."
The Sunkern shakily greeted the Beedrill and Zubat.
"Sizzle, sizzle."
Zubat nimbly flew over and landed in front of Sunkern, tilting its head to look curiously at the timid baby, a Pokémon it had never seen before.
During its travels with Dian, it had seen many things it had never seen before, especially flying in the sun during the day without feeling any stinging sensation, which was incredibly novel to it.
When Dian saw the Beedrill smile, he knew that the buzzing sound earlier was from the Beedrill swarm here.
Beedrill in this world is a Pokémon with a very strong sense of community. So if you catch a Beedrill, you may not be attacked by other Beedrill in the Forest. Even if you anger a wild Beedrill, a competent diplomat will help you solve most of the problems, and you may even get some help sometimes.
He looked at the increasingly lively Zubat and nodded in satisfaction. For wild Zubat, evolving into the Golbat or even the Crobat is a research topic, and many Researcher are dedicating their lives to it.
However, once Zubat is captured, there is a systematic method for training and nurturing it to evolve. But this is just a theory derived from practice and may not be suitable for all Trainer.
However, some points are common: due to their long-term cave life, Zubat have almost completely abandoned their eyes.
However, for Zubat to evolve into Golbat, it must regain its ability to Perception light.
Furthermore, their lifestyle needs to be changed, allowing the Zubat to get used to flying in sunlight. This will gradually remove impurities from their bodies and purify their energy, thus laying a foundation for evolution and learning certain skills.
