"Dream!"

After finishing the snack in her mouth, the Misdreavus ran to a tree hole hidden by leaves again.

It casually used the shadows to take out another bag of snacks from the tree hole and started eating.

Dian gestured to the Beedrill, signaling it to continue observing its surroundings, and then went over to investigate.

After he removed the covering from the tree hole, he was completely petrified when he saw what was inside.

To sum up his current feelings in one sentence: poverty has limited his imagination.

He originally thought it would just be some Pokémon food at most, but in fact, there was a whole bunch of stuff that dazzled his eyes.

The most eye-catching item was an exquisite transparent box containing three Evolution Stones. Inside were two seven-pointed, Red, fist-sized Rock Head that resembled the sun, and a central Orange-Yellow, rhomboid Rock Head that looked as if flames were burning inside.

These three Rock Head are the Sun Stone and Fire Stone, two of the most valuable Evolution Stone.

There are also various other types of Pokéblock, and they're even deluxe editions. Each Pokéblock box, shaped like a can, is engraved with anti-counterfeiting marks and a representative Pokémon image indicating its category.

As for Pokémon treats, there were countless other items, including shiny oval pebbles, uniquely shaped leaves, and all sorts of other strange objects.

Once Dian saw those exquisitely packaged Pokéblock, he understood why those two brats looked down on his stuff. It turned out they had robbed the wrong person, mistaking a poor man for a rich man. They deserved it!

He glanced at the Pokéblock and other odds and ends in his backpack, then without a word, emptied everything out. This was the time to rob the rich and help the poor!

"Beedrill, go and take these Pokéblock to the Beedrill in this Forest as a thank you gift. Skiploom, give these to the Sunkern as well."

While sending out the disassembled Pokéblock, Dian packed up the finely packaged canned goods, and of course, the most important Evolution Stone were placed away first.

He thought for a moment, then took out a Sun Stone, intending to hand it to the Sunkern he had just met. Meeting is fate, so why not let this little one have its wish fulfilled and evolve sooner?

Unexpectedly, the Sunkern glanced at the Sun Stone in his hand indifferently, seemingly unconcerned.

"Qian, huh?"

A blue Berry suddenly fell from above. A Sunflora on a branch shook its head and then gestured to him with its hand.

He was holding a Sun Stone in his leaf-like hand, and tossed it around nonchalantly.

Dian's eyes widened instantly. This was what it meant for a tycoon to flaunt their wealth...

His heart couldn't take it anymore, so he chose not to watch.

Dian put the Sun Stone back into his bag. As for the box, he wiped it with a cotton cloth and put it back in the tree hole. Even though this was Robin Hood-style charity, he had to be careful.

After all, this thing is too precious. If the original owner marked it and he happens to stumble upon it, then it won't be the so-called Robin Hood-style act of robbing the rich to help the poor, but rather him taking the blame for those two brats.

Although it's true that he took the items, they were the spoils of war lost by those two brats. As for where they came from, well, the Emperor doesn't know.

Finally, Dian filled one of his backpacks to the brim again, until he couldn't fit any more in, and then he stopped.

He looked at the backpack, which seemed about to burst, with a regretful expression. There was simply no more room for it.

The sound of clicking and banging could be heard all around.

The Glutton, including the Misdreavus, were devouring the food with gusto, while a kind of blissful dilemma was creeping into their minds.

Even the Sunkern next to it were happily eating these things.

"Akane, Akane, Akane, Akane..."

One by one, Sunkern carried cans of Pokéblock back to their homes, while Beedrill shared the food nearby.

Finally, when the entire tree hollow had been almost emptied, he finally understood the spirit of the revolution: to overthrow the landlords and distribute the land, and to bring harmony to the family.

After resting for a while, he was exhausted from being forced to eat, feeling both pained and blissful.

After eating something in the shade, he recalled Zubat, then had Beedrill continue leading the way. He picked up Skiploom, who had said goodbye to Sunkern, re-oriented himself, and headed towards Violet City.

Once I get a signal, I'll contact Azisa and give her one of the Sun Stone if she needs it, as a way of repaying her previous kindness. I'll also ask her about other things while I'm at it.

Before leaving, the Misdreavus's eyes darted around, and it quickly covered the tree hole again.

Not long after Dian and the others left, two stealthy figures slowly emerged from the bushes nearby.

"Ta-qiu."

Little Sentret pricked up its ears to listen, then ran forward. A flash of light appeared beside it, and suddenly the figure of the Kecleon appeared.

The two of them carefully ran to the tree hole and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the leaves on it.

"Oh."

The Kecleon felt incredibly hungry. It rubbed its stomach; ever since it ate the food brought by the Trainer, it could hardly swallow ordinary Berry.

It slowly parted the leaves that were covering it, then froze, "Ray?"

The Kecleon covered itself with the leaves again, then rubbed its eyes, patted its face, and sighed. "Seriously," it thought, "That Furret was too fierce. It has such a cute face, yet I've made it Illusion."

It shook its head, then looked around again. Hmm, no problem, that's fine now.

"Oh!"

The Kecleon happily took the leaf, then felt utterly drained, as if all its energy had been drained away. "Thunder... oh..."

Hearing this, Sentret felt a sense of panic. He squeezed in front of his companion, and when he looked around, everything went black. Sentret was completely disoriented.

Snap!

Little Sentret collapsed to the ground and immediately began to scream at the top of her lungs, "Ta-qiu!! Ta! Qiu! Ta-qiu-qiu!!"

Only the Kecleon remained standing there, holding a leaf, seemingly lost in thought. Upon closer inspection, its pupils appeared vacant, as if its soul had vanished.

"Qian?"

Upon hearing the sound, the Sunkern peeked out with its big eyes, blinked, and then hid again, ignoring the two mischievous children's wailing and crying.

Unaware of the immense psychological damage inflicted on the two mischievous children, Dian Zheng, having delivered a perfect critical strike, stared speechlessly at the great river before him.

I really don't know why they built a broken bridge over the river... Was it for sightseeing...? What a rip-off!

Luckily, he can fly—no, I mean, he can get his Pokémon to carry him, otherwise he would have to go in circles or find a way to cross the river.
