Chapter 385: Dratini's Thoughts
More and more, it gave him some unusual ideas.
Just like now, Hikaru really wanted to press Sakura (Xiao Ye) against the wall and then kiss her back.
But human rationality wouldn't allow him to do so.
Moreover,
A space beside the two of them suddenly tore open.
Then, a small pink cat drilled out from within.
Undoubtedly, it was Mew.
The little cat's appearance didn't cause Sakura (Xiao Ye) much surprise.
After all, living right next door to Hikaru, and with Mew visiting every day, the two were bound to run into each other.
After they met,
Hikaru had told Sakura (Xiao Ye) Mew's story.
Only, she didn't know that the little cat's appearance had once again suppressed Hikaru's mischievous thoughts.
"Hee hee~"
Mew looked left and right, seeming to know it had missed something.
"Mew~"
Mew floated around, finally settling on Hikaru's head, eagerly wanting him to tell a story.
In its long life, few things had fascinated it so much.
Hikaru didn't waste words and immediately summoned all his Pokémon.
Sakura (Xiao Ye) also tagged along and listened to a rambling story.
Half an hour later.
After finishing all these matters, Hikaru watched Sakura (Xiao Ye) leave, then let out a long sigh and sat on the bed.
Beside him were still Dratini, Bulbasaur, Garchomp... and Latias.
The earlier Pokémon had already matured in terms of combat power. These few little ones that came later were far behind Charizard and the others.
So, Hikaru's recent focus had been entirely on them.
However, what gave him a bit of a headache was.
Dratini seemed somewhat indifferent to battling and rather lazy about learning moves. It just liked to fly around in the sky. Instead, it was very interested in those flashy ways of displaying moves.
Latias had reported this situation to him.
"Nuu nuu..."
Dratini somewhat timidly flew to Hikaru's side.
The current Dratini was already level 22. It had undergone three sheds, and its body was now about a meter long.
The three pre-evolution sheds were all complete; he reckoned it should evolve soon.
"Woo woo..."
And listening to its cry, Hikaru tapped its head.
Dratini, born in a honey pot, lacked too much sharpness.
In short, it didn't have enough patience to hone its skills like Charizard and the others.
But it longed for good-looking moves.
On this point, Hikaru had tried showing it Pokémon Contest performances.
Unsurprisingly,
Dratini was very interested in Pokémon Contest battles.
If possible, it was fine if it didn't like battling, but it still had to learn moves.
After all, whether it was Pokémon Contests or battles, Pokémon needed solid control over their own energy.
Moreover, the current Dratini was still young; perhaps it would develop new ideas in the future.
It was just right to equip it with the [Infinite Charm] entry first.
Hikaru had originally planned to see if he could capture a Feebas and raise it into a Milotic.
"Alright... just learn the moves you like."
Hikaru didn't force it.
Dratini cheered, its eyes narrowing into a line, then returned to the training house.
Hikaru then beckoned to Bulbasaur.
"Saur?"
Bulbasaur hopped over doubtfully.
Its big eyes stared intently at its trainer.
After such a long period of training, and with Hikaru's continuous supply of energy cubes, the current Bulbasaur's level was fixed at 44.
Four months.
To grow to Lord level, this was unthinkable for other Pokémon.
"Here's something good for you."
Hikaru equipped it with the [King of Slackers] entry he got from this week's draw.
"Saur, saur!" (Thank you, Master!)
Feeling the change in itself, Bulbasaur's spirit immediately lifted, and it then solemnly thanked Hikaru.
Speaking of which,
Its personality was rather like a combination of Charizard and Lucario.
Having clear goals while also being very calm.
Perhaps its childhood experiences had already given it a sense of crisis.
If it didn't become strong, it couldn't even protect its own territory.
Hikaru pondered for a moment, then asked Bulbasaur, "Bulbasaur, do you want to go back to the Qinling Mountains to see your species, your parents?"
For a Pokémon like it, not raised by Hikaru from a young age, Hikaru also needed to consider the ties of family.
A flicker of interest passed through Bulbasaur's eyes, but it soon shook its head firmly, "Saur, saur!" (I want to go back after I become very strong!)
Hikaru patted its head, comforting it, "Then take it slow, don't rush too much."
The Venusaur clan,
After driving away that Salamence, under Mew's guidance, had returned to the side of the World Tree.
With Mew keeping an eye on them,
Probably no accidents would occur.
After recalling Bulbasaur, Hikaru finally turned his gaze to Garchomp.
Ever since Tyranitar successfully evolved,
The purple entry [Stop Involution] had naturally been equipped on Garchomp.
Little Shark...
It couldn't be called Little Shark anymore.
Its size was now only a little shorter than Hikaru.
Garchomp also lived up to expectations and was now level 36.
Moreover, it seemed to have become a bit calmer recently, not as jumpy as it was at the beginning.
"Gaga!"
To it, Hikaru finally just said, "Keep up the good work."
Garchomp's education.
Hikaru didn't need to worry at all.
Charizard would teach it how to be a dragon.
After arranging a series of matters.
Hikaru was just about to think about whom to wish for tomorrow's Monthly Entry.
The first few Pokémon were temporarily not considered.
That left Bulbasaur, Dratini, and Garchomp.
Garchomp had [Blade Warrior].
[Purple Upgradable Entry (Blade Warrior) – When a physical attack hits the opponent, it will ignore 20% - 40% of their defense by probability. At the same time, there is a small chance to ignore the effect of Protect!]
It was now only halfway to upgrading to red.
By the time Garchomp evolved, this entry would probably also upgrade to red.
So, Garchomp was temporarily not considered.
That left Bulbasaur and Dratini.
Little Dratini hadn't evolved, and it didn't have much desire for battling.
Temporarily no need to consider it either.
So, in the end, the need fell upon Bulbasaur...
"SubToxic... SubToxic..."
After muttering for a while,
Hikaru really couldn't think of what Bulbasaur needed.
Entries like [Child of the Forest], [Quick Recovery], [Rhythm Master] were already equipped on it.
Moreover, the unevolved Bulbasaur didn't have a bulky form.
As long as it was in a forest, its SubToxic strategy was unbeatable within its tier...
"If all else fails, I'll just go for Entry Duplication..."
After pondering for a long time, Hikaru still hadn't thought of what tomorrow's entry needed to be.
Just as he was about to lie down, a pair of small hands rested on his shoulders.
Clearly, it was Latias giving him a shoulder massage...
