Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

After tidying up the room, Magearna said to Spiritomb:

"Do you want to take the Shuckle out to meet everyone? Everyone should be back by now."

"Okay!" Spiritomb happily agreed.

When Magearna brought Spiritomb and the Shuckle out of the staff dormitory, they indeed saw everyone returning one after another. Diancie happened to be bringing the Passimian, who had already settled in, down from upstairs.

So Magearna and Diancie took the opportunity to introduce Spiritomb, Passimian, and the Shuckle to everyone.

Spiritomb really had a bit of a social butterfly talent. Before long, it was getting along with the other Pokémon. Passimian and the Shuckle were also quickly integrating into their new family.

Soon, Anjie and the others had prepared dinner, and the Pokémon happily began to eat.

Anjie asked Spiritomb, Passimian, and the Shuckle, "How is it? Do you want to eat some more? That little bit of cold noodles from this afternoon probably wasn't enough, right?"

Spiritomb, Passimian, and the Shuckle looked at the sumptuous dinner and couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

In the end, they couldn't resist the temptation of the delicious food and had dinner with everyone.

When Komala came out for dinner and learned that Passimian, Spiritomb, and the Shuckle had come to join it, it was immediately stunned.

Although its expression didn't change much, Anjie could tell that it was probably happy, otherwise, it wouldn't have specially taken out its treasured wine and had a great drink with Passimian.

Being with Komala, Passimian became much more talkative. It chattered and mumbled, drinking and talking with Komala.

Of course, it was mainly Passimian talking, and Komala listening.

After dinner, Magearna, Diancie, and Robert 2 were cleaning up, while Metagross and Fidough were taking Passimian on a tour of the house.

Gengar was still at work outside and hadn't returned yet.

Anjie sat on the steps at the entrance with Munchlax and Sizzlipede, holding Komala in his arms, with Volcanion dozing off not far away.

Anjie looked at the night sky and said with worry, "I wonder how Charcadet and Lechonk are doing. Did they find Xerneas?"

"Gang ~"

Munchlax patted his master's back, comforting him.

"Ji mie ~ Ji mie ~" Everything will be fine!

Sizzlipede also said.

"Hopefully." Anjie nodded.

After staring at the night sky for a while, Anjie suddenly thought that he might as well claim the reward for completing the Passimian capture task now.

However, when he opened the system, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

[Temporary Task] Help the princess of the Ore Country find Xerneas -- Completed, reward pending.

[Capture Task] Capture Passimian -- Completed, reward pending.

There were two completed tasks.

The temporary task was completed, which meant that Charcadet and the others had found Xerneas?

Great! A smile appeared on Anjie's face, and he also breathed a sigh of relief.

Since they found Xerneas, it meant that Charcadet and Lechonk were fine.

"Gang ~"

Seeing the smile on his master's face, Munchlax snuggled into Anjie's arms and nuzzled him.

Anjie rubbed its head and said with a smile, "You really are my joy."

Komala was uncomfortable being nuzzled by Munchlax and rolled out of Anjie's arms. Before long, it rolled over to Passimian, who held it in its arms.

Seeing Komala leave, Munchlax simply leaned into Anjie's arms, resting its head on Anjie's lap.

Anjie gently stroked Munchlax's soft belly while claiming the task rewards.

"Congratulations, Master, for completing [Temporary Task] Help the princess of the Ore Country find Xerneas.

Reward: 'Complete Dessert Collection', Constitution +3, Individual Value +2."

Seeing this reward, Anjie was overjoyed. Dessert recipes were finally unlocked, and Magearna would be thrilled.

Anjie flipped through the cookbook and found that the content of the 'Complete Dessert Collection' was similar to 'Noodles', containing both ordinary and advanced recipes.

Generally, the main ingredients of advanced recipes were definitely ingredients related to Pokémon.

But are wine and juice considered recipes?

Anjie didn't understand, so he simply didn't think too much about it. Anyway, eating and drinking go hand in hand. He opened the cookbook interface and casually flipped through the contents of the two cookbooks.

The content of 'Wine' was very rich, recording the brewing methods of various types of wine, such as white wine, red wine, fruit wine, and so on. Moreover, all categories of wine belonged to the category of advanced recipes.

Looking at 'Juice Drinks' again, the content was also very rich, but it contained both ordinary and advanced recipes.

Closing the cookbook interface, Anjie looked at his personal information interface.

Anjie

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Age: 16 (+500)

Constitution: 54

Intelligence: 22

Cooking Evaluation: A newbie whose cooking skills have just barely passed.

Through daily exercise, Anjie's Constitution had originally increased to 51 points, and now he had obtained 3 points through task rewards, so it finally reached 54 points.

This Constitution point reward is a bit generous!

With a Constitution of 54 points, Anjie was confident that he would definitely not lose even if he fought Passimian.

As for the Intelligence points, which were related to the strength of his Aura, they couldn't be increased through cultivation and could only be obtained through task rewards.

There were also 2 Individual Values, which Anjie unhesitatingly added to Munchlax's Defense.

Munchlax (Eviolite)

[Type] Normal

[Ability] Thick Fat

[Gender] Male

[Level] 51

[Moves] Tackle, Lick, Defense Curl, Recycle, Covet, Bite, Stockpile, Swallow, Body Slam, Fling, Amnesia, Take Down, Charm, Seed Bomb, Brick Break, Counter, Ice Punch, Thunder Punch, Fire Punch.

[Individual Values]

HP: 31

Attack: 31

Defense: 23

Special Attack: 31

Special Defense: 31

Speed: 31

Now Munchlax's level had crossed the threshold of level 50, and it could be considered a relatively powerful Pokémon.

With the double blessing of Anjie's food and the Exp. Share, Munchlax and the others' level increased very quickly.

However, as the Pokémon's level increased, Anjie had recently discovered that the leveling speed of Diancie and Munchlax had slowed down.

After sitting with the Pokémon at the entrance for a while, Anjie took the Pokémon to the cooking training room after Gengar returned from Wangcheng.

When Magearna learned that it could use the cooking training room to practice making desserts without consumption in the future, it excitedly gave Anjie a big hug.

The consequence of being too excited was that it fell flat on its face.

As for Passimian, it was its first time in the cooking training room. When it learned about the powerful functions here, it was extremely shocked.

When Anji further told it that it could use the Trainer's teaching system to generate step-by-step learning videos on how to brew wine, it became even more excited, jumping and hopping around in the training room until it calmed down after a good while.

However, when it actually started training, it realized that the training room wasn't all good.

Because it was a beginner, Dianxi's attention was entirely focused on it today. As long as it made the slightest mistake, the teaching whip in Dianxi's hand would crack against the table, and with each crack of the whip, its little heart would tremble uncontrollably.

Too scary!

It was so gentle and understanding during the day.

After the cooking training, Anji took his three apprentices and Bubo for Aura training.

Although Little Kabi Beast, Hensage Lizard, and Geng Gui still hadn't awakened their Aura, training with Anji every day had become their habit.

Touji Monkey, after learning that Aura power could assist with cooking, felt that it should also be helpful for brewing wine, so it voluntarily joined the training team.

On the other side, Black Night Demon Spirit, along with the Pot Pot, was planning to go to sleep. Just as one Pot Pot was about to turn off the lights, Black Night Demon Spirit quickly stopped it.

"Yo Nu ~ Yo Nu ~" Don't turn off the lights!

Lights are such good things!

They can illuminate the darkness. It didn't know before it came into contact with lights, but now that it has, it really likes them.

It's afraid of the dark at night.

The Pot Pot were speechless.

"Zi Bo ~ Zi Bo ~" You're too useless.

One Pot Pot said.

"Zi Bo ~ Zi Bo ~" That's right, that's right, you're a Ghost-type Pokémon.

Another Pot Pot said.

"Zi Bo ~ Zi Bo ~" That's right, isn't nighttime the time for Ghost-type Pokémon to revel?

Yet another Pot Pot said.

Black Night Demon Spirit retorted righteously: "Yo Nu ~ Yo Nu ~ Yo Nu ~" Who said Ghost-type Pokémon have to like the night?

I like daytime and bright places.

"Zi Bo ~ Zi Bo ~" Alright, alright, we won't turn off the lights.

The Pot Pot said.

After speaking, they all pulled up their blankets and nestled into their little beds to sleep.

Black Night Demon Spirit also burrowed into the covers and closed its eyes contentedly.

On Anji's side.

Halfway through their Aura training, Metagross rushed into the cooking training room with Robert No. 2.

"What's wrong, Metagross?" Seeing Metagross in a panic, Anji asked in confusion.

"Anji, something happened!" Metagross said through Robert No. 2's voice, "Go out and take a look."

Metagross was originally teaching students at the secret fortress when suddenly Crow Boss flew in with the Dark Crows, asking it to find Anji.

Crow Boss originally came to find Anji first, but Anji and the others were all in the training room and couldn't hear the commotion outside, so Crow Boss turned around and went to find Metagross.

"What happened?" Anji asked.

"You'll know when you go out and take a look," Metagross said with a solemn expression.

While walking out, Anji instructed the Pokémon, "You continue training, I'll go out and take a look."

As he spoke, he picked up the Tree Pillow Bear.

The Pokémon nodded, watching Anji leave the training room.

After Anji walked out of the training room, he found Volcanion standing at the door.

"Why are you here too? Weren't you watching the soccer game?" Anji asked.

"I heard something happened outside, so I came to accompany you to take a look," Volcanion said with an arrogant expression.

"Okay, then thank you!" Anji said with a smile.

"Hmph ~"

Volcanion snorted and took the lead, heading outside.

When they got outside, Anji saw Crow Boss and the Dark Crows standing in a row on the wall, waiting for Anji with solemn faces.

"Ang ~ ~"

Just as Anji was about to ask Crow Boss what had happened, he suddenly heard a terrifying cry from somewhere in the night.

Hearing this sound, even Volcanion showed a grave expression.

"Gaa gaa ~ ~"

"Ya mi ~ ~"

Crow Boss and the Dark Crows flew around in a panic.

Anji shouted loudly, "Crow Boss, Dark Crows, calm down, what exactly happened?"

"Gaa gaa ~ Gaa gaa ~"

"Ya mi ~ Ya mi ~"

Crow Boss screamed and flew into the night, with the Dark Crows following closely behind.

Seeing this, Anji quickly took Tree Pillow Bear, Metagross, and Volcanion and chased after them.

While running, Volcanion created a fireball with flames and suspended it in front, allowing Anji to see the road under his feet.

"Volcanion, thank you," Anji said.

"Hmph, I'm doing it for myself," Volcanion said stubbornly.

Anji smiled without saying a word.

After running behind Crow Boss and the others for an unknown amount of time, Crow Boss and the Dark Crows finally stopped, and Anji also saw a dark shadow appear on the grass ahead.

In the dark night, the black shadow's pair of scarlet eyes looked over coldly and ruthlessly.

Even before seeing the black shadow's face clearly, Anji already felt a sense of oppression coming towards him.

"Ang ~ ~ ~" Sensing someone approaching, the black shadow let out a cry.

In the next second, a black-red energy beam struck from the direction of the black shadow.

"Gaa gaa ~ Gaa gaa ~" Anji, dodge!

"Ya mi ~ Ya mi ~" Dodge! Dodge!

Crow Boss and the Dark Crows shouted in panic.

Anji, however, dodged the attack nimbly and agilely, holding Tree Pillow Bear, at the moment the energy beam struck.

Having high Physique points is awesome, Anji felt that his reaction speed was much faster than before.

Seeing Anji being attacked, Volcanion wasn't going to let the opponent get away with it, and immediately launched its exclusive move, Steam Eruption, to attack the opponent.

Boom!

The scalding steam column, carrying a rolling torrent of air, bombarded the black shadow.

"Ang ~ ~ ~"

The phantom cried out, its voice carrying a hint of weakness.

It was burned! Anji keenly noticed the abnormality.

Volcanion's exclusive move has a certain chance to inflict a burn status on the opponent. Obviously, the black shadow was unlucky and won the lottery.

Just then, a system prompt sounded in Anji's ear.

Huh? At this time?

He quickly opened the system and saw a new task added to the taskbar at a glance.

[Feeding Task] Use Golden Manberry, Golden Nanab Berry, and Golden Pinap Berry to make a food to feed Yveltal — Pending.

Seeing this task, Anji was stunned.

So the black shadow opposite is… Yveltal? Yveltal, the God of Destruction?

So the three golden berries are to be used in this place?

Berries used to feed gods are indeed valuable items.

Volcanion was about to press the attack, but Anji quickly stopped it.

"Volcanion, wait!"

Hearing Anji's words, Volcanion stopped its movements.
