Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

Tonight, Treecko Koala came back especially late. It was drunk and didn't even eat dinner, going straight to its cabin to sleep.

After dinner, the other Pokémon gradually returned. Angie, along with Diancie, Gardevoir, Gallade, and Espurr, cleaned and washed all the dishes.

After Gardevoir and the others also went home, Angie, Munchlax, and Drizzile went to the cooking training room to train. It had been a while since they trained, and Angie was full of energy.

Diancie still played the role of the strict coach, harshly supervising and guiding Angie and the others in their special training.

Because the unlocked recipes had increased, Angie and the others' training content also increased accordingly.

Wooloo and Metagross didn't need to train. They were first curious and explored the training room, and then Metagross teased Wooloo.

Angie and the others had to train for 10 hours, which was too long. Wooloo gradually started to get bored, so Angie handed it the phone, letting it go out and play with Metagross.

There was no signal in the training room.

Metagross also really wanted to learn about the human world through the internet and pick up some knowledge, so it was very happy to go out with Wooloo.

"Drizzi~ Drizzi!" I'll learn too! I'll become stronger if I learn!

Seeing that Munchlax was learning, Drizzile, of course, wanted to learn too. Drizzile will never be weaker than anyone!

Just as Angie took out the "Cultivation Manual" intending to study with his two disciples, he suddenly thought of Wooloo, "Why don't we call Wooloo over to learn together!"

It's a good opportunity to temper that little guy's overly lively personality.

"Mun~"

"Drizzi~"

Munchlax and Drizzile both agreed.

"Drizzi~~" I'll go get it!

With that, Drizzile ran outside in a puff of smoke and soon came back carrying Wooloo by the neck.

Metagross also came back with Wooloo.

Wooloo was brought to Angie looking confused.

"Woo?" What are you going to do?

Wooloo had a bad feeling.

Angie said to it with a smile, "Wooloo, come, let's learn together."

"Woo~ Woo~" No, I want to play on my phone.

Wooloo shook its head and subconsciously backed away, but Angie grabbed it.

Then, Angie led the three Pokémon to form a circle and explained the cultivation method of Aura to them.

Munchlax listened attentively, and Drizzile also looked serious. When they encountered something they didn't understand, they would actively ask Angie for advice.

In fact, Angie was also a novice, and he was also ignorant of many things. Therefore, he and his two disciples basically discussed and cultivated together. When they encountered something they didn't understand, Angie would verify it with his two disciples.

Angie would also guide the Aura power in his body out, allowing his two disciples to personally feel this special power that exists within all living things.

Only Wooloo was completely confused.

Seeing that Angie and the others were cultivating so seriously, Diancie didn't idle either.

It came to Metagross and said, "Metagross, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Meta~~" Metagross nodded.

Diancie: "Let's go outside to talk."

Although Metagross was puzzled, it still followed Diancie out.

In the living room, Diancie said to Metagross, "I would like to ask you to help develop a training plan for Frillish."

As a Psychic-type Pokémon, Metagross should be able to give some advice on Frillish's cultivation.

"Meta~~"

Metagross, of course, agreed without hesitation.

So the two Pokémon nestled on the sofa in the living room and began to whisper.

Metagross actually had no experience in guiding others in cultivation, but it didn't matter. It had Robert 2. After searching the internet, a large amount of training methods related to Psychic-type and Water-type Pokémon, as well as Frillish's breeding information, quickly gathered in its mind and was summarized, screened, and integrated by its brain, which was comparable to a supercomputer.

Now, it not only had a clue about Frillish's cultivation plan, but it also had ideas for its own cultivation plan.

Metagross's ability was too strong. It was not only powerful, but also had excellent information acquisition, learning, and calculation abilities, so Diancie's eyes became brighter and brighter as it looked at it.

Soon, Diancie had a complete and detailed training plan in her hand.

"Metagross, can I still come to you to discuss things in the future?" Diancie asked with a burning gaze.

"Meta~" Of course.

Metagross nodded happily.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye. Angie led the three Pokémon out of the room, and Munchlax and Drizzile looked disappointed.

Ten hours had passed in the training room, but they didn't feel any Aura power appear in their bodies.

As for Wooloo, it wasn't disappointed at all. If it didn't cultivate it, it didn't cultivate it. It yawned as it walked.

"Woo~ Woo~" Can I go to sleep?

Wooloo tugged at Angie's pant leg and asked.

"Okay, okay! Go quickly." Angie shook his head helplessly.

"Woo~~"

Wooloo responded, rubbed its eyes, and went back to its room groggily.

Angie then said to Munchlax and Drizzile, "You guys go back to sleep too. It's okay if you didn't cultivate it. Let's keep up the good work tomorrow!"

"Mun~~"

Munchlax immediately regained its energy upon hearing this. Master is right!

"Drizzi~~"

Drizzile also nodded vigorously. That's right, it's so powerful, it's impossible not to cultivate it.

Then, Angie, Munchlax, Drizzile, Diancie, and Metagross each returned to their rooms to sleep.

Before going to sleep, Angie planned to claim the rewards for the daily tasks as usual.

However, when he opened the system's task bar, he was surprised to find that a daily task had been added.

[Daily Task 1] Train in the cooking training room for 1 hour - Completed, reward to be claimed.

[Daily Task 2] Host 10 Pokémon - Completed, reward to be claimed.

[Daily Task 3] Perform 1 Aura cultivation - Completed, reward to be claimed.

This was naturally a good thing for An Jielai. In any case, he had to train his Aura every day. Although the rewards for daily tasks were generally average, there was still a certain probability of hitting the jackpot. One couldn't be without ambition!

Harboring this ambition, An Jie claimed his daily task rewards one by one.

Congratulations, Master, for receiving the reward: 1 Poké Ball.

An Jie took it out to look. Just a normal red and white ball. Not very useful. He hadn't even used up all the Poké Balls he received from the professor!

Congratulations, Master, for receiving the reward: 1 Large Mushroom.

An Jie took out the Large Mushroom. It wasn't particularly large, not even enough to stir-fry a plate, but the quality was indeed much better than ordinary mushrooms.

He put away the Large Mushroom and continued to claim the last reward.

Congratulations, Master, for receiving the reward: 1 bag of Waterside Herb seeds.

Seeing the final reward, An Jie's eyes lit up.

Waterside Herb was exactly the main ingredient needed for the advanced recipe 'Fish Food'!

He had been having a headache about this. Waterside Herb wasn't sold on the market, and the system store didn't provide seeds for this special plant either.

He didn't expect to get a pillow when he was sleepy.

An Jie took out the Waterside Herb seeds. There was a whole bag full, completely enough for him to use.

Waterside Herb was a plant unique to the Pokémon world, only growing near waters with clear water quality. Artificial cultivation was very difficult, so it usually only appeared in small quantities as a seasoning on the market.

If it weren't for the recipe given by the system, An Jie wouldn't have known that this thing could also be used to make fish food.

Lake Nibel's water quality was top-notch. It should be able to be cultivated successfully!

Putting away the seeds, An Jie burrowed into his quilt and fell into a dream before long.

The next day, An Jie got up early and called Snorlax, Drizzile, and Stufful to go for a run.

Snorlax, who used to have trouble getting up, was particularly active today because its master was going to run with it after a long time, so it was particularly excited.

After getting up, it followed closely behind An Jie, like a little tagalong. Diancie and Drizzile made fun of it, but it just grinned foolishly. As long as it could be with its master, it would be in a good mood and wouldn't care if others made fun of it.

Today, the role of having trouble getting up fell to Stufful.

Even after going downstairs, Stufful was still drowsy.

The air in the Nibel Plateau in the early morning was particularly fresh. An Jie ran towards the rising sun, followed by Snorlax, Drizzile, Krookodile, Hariyama, Lairon, two Farfetch'd, and Galarian Articuno.

Each of them carried weighted training gear that An Jie had bought for them.

Stufful hung far behind at the tail of the team, even slower than the physically cumbersome Lairon.

After finishing the run, An Jie took several Pokémon to take a bath, and then moved several ceramic jars from the secret base's warehouse.

The ceramic jars contained the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs that An Jie had pickled earlier.

Snorlax and Drizzile surrounded him with expectant expressions, watching An Jie scoop out the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs from the ceramic jars.

"Today, our shop's menu will have new additions!" An Jie said.

With preserved eggs, An Jie could make preserved egg and pork congee, and the congee paired with salted duck eggs would be a perfect match!

"Gang~"

"Ji mie~"

Snorlax and Drizzile cheered in unison. They had also helped with the making of the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs, and now that the pickling was successful, they felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Stufful stood on tiptoes to look at the table, anxiously asking, "Bu~ Bu~" Is it delicious? Is it delicious?

Unfortunately, it was too short to see anything.

An Jie patted its head lightly, "You were half-dead when running, but you're full of energy when it comes to eating."

Stufful covered its head with a wronged expression.

Afterwards, An Jie divided the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs into two portions, one to be left at Diancie's Cafeteria for the Pokémon to eat, and one to be taken to Snorlax's Home later.

Then, An Jie began to prepare for the opening of the shop with the Pokémon, kneading dough and mixing fillings. During this process, An Jie used the methods in the 'Cultivation Manual' to comb through the Aura within the ingredients.

He didn't know if it was his imagination, but he felt that the dough he kneaded with Aura was more chewy.

After Gardevoir, Gallade, Ralts, Meowstic, and Espurr all arrived, An Jie took the processed ingredients and said, "Let's go!"

After a long absence from working at the shop, An Jie was full of energy at this time.

"Oh!!!"

Drizzile, Ralts, Meowstic, and Espurr cheered.

Now that An Jie had returned, the staffing arrangements for the two stores returned to their original state.

Snorlax, Diancie, Gardevoir, and Gallade were still in charge of Diancie's Cafeteria; while An Jie, Drizzile, Ralts, Meowstic, and Espurr were still in charge of Snorlax's Home.

The only change was probably that all the financial management of the store would be handled by Metagross, or rather, Robert No. 2.

Komala, the temporary cashier, was ultimately completely laid off.

Of course, this was a good thing for Komala. Being a cashier was just forcing it to do something it wasn't suited for.

Its ideal life was to eat, eat, eat and sleep, sleep, sleep, without having to worry about anything else. Now it had finally come true!

As expected, it had just finished breakfast in the morning and didn't know where it had run off to again.

An Jie arrived at Snorlax's Home, and he and Drizzile immediately got busy.

He made buns and steamed buns, and Drizzile cooked congee, with a new congee dish added today — Preserved Egg and Pork Congee.

Meowstic and Espurr weren't idle either, either wiping tables, sweeping the floor, or putting side dishes, bowls, and plates on the tables.

While busy, An Jie suddenly felt an Aura approaching him, so he whispered:

"Haunter, is that you?"

"Gastly~~"

On the ceiling, Haunter slowly appeared.

"Are you watching us cook?" An Jie asked.

"Gastly~" Haunter nodded.

Before An Jie discovered it, it would also secretly watch An Jie cook like this.

"Do you like cooking?" An Jie asked again.

Haunter hesitated for a moment. Did it like it? It didn't know. It only knew that it would feel very at ease when watching An Jie cook.

However, after hesitating for a while, it still nodded to An Jie.

Seeing this, An Jie asked, "Then do you want to learn how to cook with me?"

"Gastly~" Can I?

Haunter was a little excited.

"Of course." An Jie nodded, "As long as you're willing, as long as you're interested."

"Gastly~ Gastly~"

Haunter nodded excitedly, spinning around happily in the air.

An Jie smiled and said, "Okay, you can watch from the side first. When we go back later, you can come home with me, and I'll teach you how to cook."

"Gastly~"

Haunter nodded, obediently floating in the air watching An Jie.

Soon, the first steamer of buns and steamed buns was ready. An Jie discovered the uniqueness of today's buns and steamed buns the moment he opened the steamer.

They looked whiter, bigger, and softer.
