Not a trainer this time.

Chapter 477: The Farfetch'd River has produced gold, spring for gamblers!

Unfortunately, the Dan Emperor did not come.

Ever since he learned the truth about the Galar region from Princess Crown of Buds last time, Dantei began to secretly investigate the matter of Infinite in the Galar region.

In addition to having to serve as a champion to accept challenges from trainers and various exhibition matches, Dandi is now almost busy to death.

Seeing this, Naoki could only reply: Okay, let’s fight again next time we have a chance!

The Dan Emperor responded quickly.

[Dante: Don't worry! After everything in the Galar region is over, I will visit your ranch, and I will definitely fight you for three days and three nights! ]

【King Yi: ……】

After the small talk, Naoki started asking Dan Di about serious matters.

[King Yi: Have you been to Weimei Forest? ]

Last time, King Leiguan and Emperor Dan said that he could go to Weimei Forest to look for Cang Xiang and Zangmarant and seek their help. I wonder if Emperor Dan has found them now.

[Dante: I have been there. I successfully met Cang Xiang and Zang Marant, and told them what the Bud Crown told me, but the two Pokémon told me that it is not the right time yet and asked me to come back later.]

Hmm? Not the right time?
Looking at the reply above, Naoki was slightly stunned.

He turned around and told the Crown King about this.

After a brief moment of contemplation, the Rape Crown King explained:

"Perhaps it's because the human being who can make the decaying sword and shield shine again has not yet been born."

"With the current power of Cang Xiang and Zang Marant, they are still unable to defeat An Ye."

Naoki immediately understood. Wasn't this talking about the protagonist of Sword and Shield and her rival?
That is Xiaoyou and Dandi’s younger brother Hepu.

However, Hep is only about five or six years old now, still a little kid...

The weapons of Cang Xiang and Zang Marant have been decayed by time, and it takes their courage and faith to make them shine with new light.

What surprised Naoki was that Dan Di didn't have the power to make the Sword and Shield of Decay shine?

Or is this opportunity exclusive to the protagonist?

Just when Naoki was feeling surprised, Dandi made a video call directly.

Naoki pressed the answer button.

The next second, Dandi's cheerful and handsome face appeared on the screen.

After a simple greeting, Emperor Dan started talking about another matter.

"By the way, the last time I went to the Weimei Forest, Cang Xiang and Zang Marant specifically asked me about the current location and situation of the Bud Crown King."

"Hmm?" Naoki was a little surprised: "Then what?"

Dante scratched his head and said, "I told them the location of your ranch and showed them the photos that the Rape Crown King posted online."

That was a photo of the Bud Crown King sitting in the garden and enjoying afternoon tea elegantly.

"Then Cang Xiang and Zang Marant seemed to be relieved. After expressing their gratitude to me, they disappeared into the depths of the Weimei Forest." Dan Di said.

Naoki nodded: "Maybe they are just worried about the Lotus Crown! After all, the Lotus Crown's condition was not very good before. Now that they see that the Lotus Crown has recovered, Sora and Kuramarante can rest assured."

"Yes!" Dan Emperor was also very emotional.

He later made a special trip to the Crown Snowfield and investigated the legend of the Bud Crown King in the Frozen Village. He knew very well the situation of the Bud Crown King in the past.

If it weren't for Naoki, this great Pokémon king would probably still be wandering alone in the vast snowfield.

And the things He did would most likely be buried under the snow and never be known to the world.

The Galar royal family will continue to promote themselves in the Galar region based on their stolen achievements.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door behind Emperor Dan.

Only then did Naoki notice that he seemed to be backstage at a certain conference.

Hearing that voice, Dantei grinned and said goodbye to Naoki:
"No more talking. I have to go have a Pokémon battle with the challenger. Let's talk next time when we have time!"

Naoki said hello.

After hanging up the phone, Naoki shared the remaining leaf cakes with other grass-attribute Pokémon on the ranch.

Not only that, he also asked the Eevees to take some to Oliva and the others on the World Tree.

Although the leaf cake cannot make Oliva and the others become the same as mount goats, it can still bring them significant improvements.

Naoki turned around and went back to his room to cook.

Meanwhile, Farfetch'd looked determinedly at the wooden dummy that was broken into pieces by his mount Goat's Holy Sword of Grass.

After a moment, the fire of struggle was rekindled in its heart.

*
"What? You plan to continue eating the berry platter to learn powerful moves?"

In the kitchen, Naoki, who was cooking, sensed Farfetch'd's thoughts and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Quack!" The Onion Duck nodded.

When he saw its appearance, Zhishu immediately understood.

Farfetch'd has just witnessed the powerful sword skills used by its mount goat, and it wants to have them too!

"Okay!" Naoki nodded and agreed. Anyway, Farfetch'd no longer had to worry about forgetting his moves.

After countless times of forgetting and re-learning, the methods of using those moves have long been deeply engraved in its mind.

Even if the brain forgets, the body still remembers the movements and can quickly regain them.

Thinking of this, Naoki made five servings of fruit platters for Farfetch'd in one go and let it try out the five in a row.

At the same time, we also prepared some stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets for Pokémon to help Farfetch'd digest the food it eats.

The Onion Duck went out with five plates of fruit platters in high spirits.

Naoki stayed in the kitchen and continued preparing lunch.

In the open space in the pasture.

The Farfalle looked determinedly at the five fruit platters in front of it.

The first one, a familiar feeling came over him, and Farfetch'd felt that he had forgotten the Iai Hatch.

For this kind of thing, the Onion Duck has long been accustomed to it.

It was neither panicked nor anxious, but continued to pick up the next fruit platter.

In the second serving, Farfetch'd forgot about the combo.

In the third one, Farfetch'd understood meditation.

In the fourth one, Farfetch'd mastered the Feather Dance.

The fifth one.

As the last portion of the fruit platter entered its stomach, the Farfetch'd suddenly opened its eyes and felt an unprecedented power.

The next second, a layer of blue light appeared in its determined eyes.

Powerful spiritual power surged from Onion Duck's body to the super onion in its hand.

The green onions began to glow.

"Gah!"

The right wing swung forward violently, and the huge glowing onion swept forward. An invisible spiritual blade was thrown out from the onion, accompanied by a crackling sound, and the grass in front was instantly cut into an extremely flat surface.

"Gah?!"

After the move was completed, Farfetch'd looked at its wings in surprise.

The brain told it that the name of that move was Spirit Sword, and it was a move with super power attributes!

Realizing the extraordinary nature of this move, Farfetch'd immediately found Naoki, pulled him outside, and showed him his newly learned move.

Looking at the extremely smooth lawn, Naoki recognized the moves of Farfetch'd at a glance.

That is the exclusive move of the paradoxical Pokémon, Leafy, which is based on Biligion, the Psychic Sword!
[Spirit Sword: A psychic move that uses an invisible blade to split the opponent. When in an electric field, the power of the move will be enhanced.]

Although it is not as powerful as Palkia's Sub-Sky Slash, it is still a powerful move.

Especially when using it, the spiritual power will make the onion glow and turn into a lightsaber, which looks very cool! "This is the Spirit Sword, it is the exclusive move of the special paradox individual of the legendary Pokémon Biligeon, Ironleaf, it is very good." Naoki introduced to Onion Duck.

Farfetch'd has always relied on melee attacks as its means of output, and now it has an additional move that allows it to release sword energy attacks remotely, which is quite good.

It can just make up for the shortcomings of Farfetch'd and expand its attack range.

Sure enough, when it heard the word "legend", Farfetch'd's face lit up with excitement.

At this moment, a feeling of sweetness after bitterness suddenly surged in its heart.

Think about it, it has a miserable life!

In order to comprehend powerful moves, he kept eating tree fruit platters, not only did he become a big fat duck, but he also almost died of overeating.

And now, it has finally come to fruition.

The spring for gamblers has arrived!
Because it was too excited, the Farfetch'd started dancing on the spot and laughed "quack quack".

Naoki: "..."

The gambler Farfetch'd is not a pure one!
Normally at this time, shouldn't one be dissatisfied with the Spirit Sword being too weak and turn to pursue the more powerful Sub-Sky Rift Slash?
After all, when Farfetch'd came to the ranch, it was doing so in search of a way to cut off the waterfall.

Naoki wanted to warn it, but seeing Farfetch'd being so excited, he thought about it and decided to give up.

Otherwise, it would be disastrous if not only he failed to comprehend the Sub-Sky Slash, but he also forgot about the Spirit Sword.

*
The sun was scorching outside the window. The dazzling sunlight was scorching the earth. The crops in the fields were wilting in the sun. Even the cicadas in the back mountain that had been chirping all summer had stopped chirping.

After lunch, Naoki lazily stayed at home and enjoyed the air conditioning.

The Pokémon who were not afraid of the heat sat under the eaves and ate watermelons leisurely.

At this time, a trainer came to the ranch, carrying a backpack and sweating profusely from the heat.

"Mr. Naoki, I finally collected enough badges. Now I should be able to challenge the Green Grass Trial, right?"

Under the eaves, a young man looked excitedly at Naoki who opened the door for him.

Naoki: "..."

He still remembered this young man. He had once come to the ranch in the spring with a fire crocodile, wanting to challenge the green grass trial.

But he was a rookie who had only a gym badge, far from meeting the requirements to challenge the trial.

Therefore, Naoki decisively rejected him at that time.

Now that he heard that the other party had collected enough badges, Naoki was a little surprised.

"Come in and take a rest first!" He noticed the sweat on the boy's forehead.

"Yes!" The boy was very excited and quickly followed Naoki into the living room: "Can I challenge the Green Grass Trial now?"

Naoki: "..."

Looking at the boy's expectant eyes, Naoki really wanted to say that his current goat mount is no longer the same as before.

The legendary goat mount that has been achieved is no longer something that ordinary trainers can challenge.

But looking at the boy's enthusiasm and hard work for the Green Grass Trial, Naoki was silent for a moment, then asked his sister, Ai Guanshi, to pour him a cup of mung bean soup to relieve the heat.

The young man thanked him and drank the whole bottle in one gulp.

After he finished drinking, Naoki asked, "Where's the stupid fire crocodile?"

When the boy heard Mr. Naoki asking about Charizard, he immediately took out a Poké Ball.

With a flash of white light, a crocodile Pokémon with fiery red scales suddenly appeared in the living room.

It turns out that the original Fire Crocodile has now evolved into a Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile!
Seeing this scene, Naoki was a little surprised.

"Growing so fast?"

"That's right! During this period of time, Bone Pattern Crocodile and I have been training hard and constantly challenging gyms!" The young man replied with fighting spirit.

Naoki felt the fighting spirit of a young man from the other party, and he smiled and nodded:

"Okay, in that case, I accept your challenge!"

If any trainer were faced with such a challenger, he would probably accept the other party's invitation to a battle.

Hearing this, the boy's eyes lit up: "Great!"

A moment later, the two arrived at the battlefield.

The boy sent out the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile, while Naoki sent out a Mount Goat.

He looked at the trainer opposite him and said, "During this period of time, not only have you gained something, but your mount goat has also grown. It won't be easy to win!"

"If it doesn't work once, try it twice. If it doesn't work twice, try it three times!" The young man was full of determination: "Neither the Bone Pattern Giant Crocodile nor I will give up!"

"Very good, very energetic." Naoki smiled slightly: "Then, show me your growth!"

"call out!"

The clear whistle of my sister Ai Guanshi sounded from the side.

The battle officially begins.

"Bone-patterned giant crocodile, use the Flash Flame Singing!" the young man spoke immediately.

The bone-patterned giant crocodile in front of him immediately opened its mouth wide, and flames spewed out of its mouth as if singing.

Start with the Flashing Flame Song?

Looking at the raging flames, Naoki whispered, "Mount goat, shadow clone!"

The mount goat's eyes grew determined, staring at the oncoming flames, its body flashing quickly, and in the blink of an eye, several identical shadows appeared all around.

One of the shadows was hit by the flames and disappeared as a phantom.

"Disappeared?!" The young man immediately reminded: "Since we can't find the location of the goat, let it have a good sleep. Bone Pattern Giant Crocodile, use Sing!"

The next second, a drowsy singing voice came out from the soul fireball on the tip of the Bone Patterned Giant Crocodile's nose.

However, Naoki didn't intend to give it this chance.

"Mount goat, earthquake!"

"Yeah."

The mount goat on the field responded in a deep voice. The next second, all the shadow clones raised their front legs and stomped heavily on the ground.

A powerful shock wave immediately rushed towards the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile from all directions.

[Singing] was interrupted, and the strong earthquake wave directly hit the Bone Pattern Giant Crocodile hard. The huge force directly made it lose its combat ability.

Instant kill!

Seeing this scene, the boy was shocked.

"Lose? So strong!"

Naoki sighed helplessly in his heart. It seemed that he had to change the challenge rules of the Green Grass Trial again.

"You have done very well." Naoki praised, "You have grown to this point in just a few months. In the words of the chief, you are already an excellent trainer."

The boy was smart and he heard the compliment in Naoki's words, but he still remained calm.

Because compared to Mr. Naoki, they still have a long way to go.

"I've decided!" The boy's tone became very firm: "I will continue to practice with the Bone Pattern Giant Crocodile. We will definitely challenge the trial again!"

After saying that, the boy put the Bone-Patterned Crocodile back into the Poké Ball, said goodbye to Naoki, and hurried away.

Naoki: "..."

Helplessly watching the other person's figure go away, Naoki slowly exhaled.

This kind of little episode in life is not the first time it has happened, and Naoki has long been accustomed to it.

Life goes on and time passes by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was June 200th of the 6th year of the Alliance Calendar.

This day is the day for the fireworks display.
