Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

Chapter 226 Where Did Eevee Go?

Taking the light rail from Bakkal City, An Jue and the others quickly returned to Azoth.

Because they returned after noon, the Snorlax Cub House was already closed.

An Jue brought Diancie and the others back home through the space tunnel, then walked to the balcony on the third floor.

From afar, he could hear the voices of Snorlax Cub and Bababooibee coming from downstairs.

"Gura ~ Gura ~ ~"

"Babu ~ Babu ~"

An Jue looked forward and saw Snorlax Cub and Bababooibee sparring on the grass outside the fence.

An Jue waved at them, "Snorlax Cub, Bababooibee!"

Hearing An Jue's voice, Snorlax Cub suddenly looked up, and then a huge surprise burst out on its face.

"Gura ~ Gura ~" At this moment, it didn't care about sparring, and ran towards the house.

"Babu ~ Babu ~" Bababooibee also shouted excitedly, closely following Snorlax Cub into the house.

An Jue had just walked to the stairwell when Snorlax Cub had already pounced on him, followed closely by Bababooibee.

An Jue was instantly knocked to the ground by the two Pokémon.

"Gura ~ Gura ~" Master, you're finally back, I miss you so much!

"Babu ~ Babu ~" Me too! Me too!

An Jue lay on the ground, hugging them both.

"Okay ~ Okay ~ I'm back now."

Snorlax Cub was immediately coaxed by An Jue and became very happy.

"Gura ~ Gura ~" I like Master the most.

An Jue hugged its neck and said, "I like Snorlax Cub the most too."

"Babu ~ Babu ~" What about me? What about me?

Bababooibee immediately asked impatiently.

An Jue pinched its chubby face and said, "Of course I like Bababooibee the most too!"

His words left Diancie speechless, how many parts are you going to divide your favorite into?

"I said, you three are enough! You're blocking the stairwell here, are you going to let people pass?"

The housekeeper spoke, and An Jue, Snorlax Cub, and Bababooibee quickly shrank their heads and got up, making way.

"Passi ~ Passi ~" Seeing this, Passimian covered its mouth and snickered, then leaped up and quickly disappeared.

It went to find Komala, Shuckle, and Duskull, it missed them so much after not seeing them for a few days.

"Snorlax Cub, Bababooibee, let's go." An Jue held Snorlax Cub's left hand and Bababooibee's right hand, happily walking downstairs with them.

"Baltoy, keep up!" He didn't forget to turn his head and remind Baltoy.

Aegislash didn't need An Jue to remind it, it had been following An Jue closely.

Downstairs, An Jue released Volcanion and Galvantula.

Volcanion went to the kitchen on the second floor to find Magearna as soon as possible, it was injured and needed comfort.

And Galvantula sprinted towards the outside.

Nibel Plateau's wide grassland, I'm back!

Galvantula ran wildly on the grassland as soon as it went out.

Beside the flower bed in the square, Mareep was sitting in front of the drawing board in a daze, only half of the painting in front of it was finished.

In the flower bed, three Combee were flying around in the blooming flowers, and what Mareep was painting was this scene.

At the edge of the flower bed, Musharna and two Araquanid were napping there.

Diancie wasn't home, and they all looked listless.

Just then, they seemed to hear Diancie's voice.

"Everyone, I'm back!"

Mareep slid off the stool, turned around and saw Diancie, and ran over as soon as possible, then plunged into Diancie's arms.

Although it didn't make a sound and didn't have any expression on its face, Diancie could already feel its longing for her.

Diancie gently stroked Mareep's soft fur and said, "Mareep, I'm back!"

Musharna and two Araquanid also quickly came to Diancie, telling Diancie about their longing for her these days.

An Jue asked Snorlax Cub, "How are the new members doing?"

Snorlax Cub replied, "Gura ~ Gura ~ Master, don't worry, everyone is fine!"

"That's good." Saying that, he rubbed Snorlax Cub's head and said, "Thank you for taking care of the house."

Snorlax Cub took the opportunity to rub its head against An Jue's palm.

Bababooibee immediately said upon hearing this, "Babu ~ Babu ~ There's me too! There's me too!"

An Jue rubbed the top of Bababooibee's head again and said, "Yes, yes, you've worked hard too."

Bababooibee was immediately satisfied, and even the pace of walking became much lighter.

An Jue continued, "Let's go see how the new partners are doing!"

"Gura ~"

"Babu ~"

Snorlax Cub and Bababooibee nodded, vying to lead the way for An Jue.

An Jue first went to see Lucario.

It was training with Inteleon in the cooking training room.

According to Snorlax Cub, they had entered the cooking training room after lunch and stayed there until now.

At the same time, An Jue also learned that Lucario and Inteleon were getting along very well.

This morning, Lucario went to Snorlax Cub House to help Inteleon, with Lucario using Aura to help process the ingredients, Inteleon's cooking skills were highly praised by the guests in the store.

Therefore, Inteleon was in a very good mood today, so it would be full of energy to bring Lucario to hone its cooking skills in the cooking training room.

Lucario is also very capable.

Lucario was grateful from the bottom of its heart to An Jue, who provided it with job opportunities and allowed it and Gothita and the others to no longer worry about food and drink, so it wanted to repay An Jue with all its strength.

After An Jue entered the cooking training room, he saw Inteleon and Lucario training intently, so he left quietly without disturbing them.

Then, in the kitchen on the second floor, An Jue saw Gothita, Wobbuffet, and Girafarig.

They were helping Magearna.

They had already learned from An Jue about their future work arrangements, so they took the initiative to come to Magearna to help.

Although they didn't understand cooking, they could help clean, wash pots and pans, saving Magearna a lot of trouble.

So Magearna liked these three hardworking and cute Pokémon very much.

An Jue didn't enter the kitchen, but stood in front of the kitchen window and glanced inside.

Wobbuffet was washing dishes.

Gothita was using psychic powers to control the rag to clean the stove.

Girafarig was also using psychic powers to control the broom to sweep the floor.

Magearna was making desserts while chatting with Volcanion, although An Jue couldn't hear what they were saying, Volcanion's expression looked like it was aggrieved.

This... it's like a macho man acting cute.

He seriously suspected that Volcanion was trying to win Magearna's care by selling misery.

Without disturbing the Pokémon, he quietly left with Snorlax Cub, Bababooibee, Aegislash, and Baltoy.

Back on the first floor, An Jue said to Aegislash, "Aegislash, go and rest for a while, don't keep following me, overwork is not good."

Aegislash hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement, it flew directly to the wall of the living room, hung itself on it, and then closed its eyes.

An Jue was no longer surprised by its strange way of resting.

When An Jue was planning to continue to visit the new partners, Gengar came back from outside.

"Gengar ~ ~" Seeing An Jue, it immediately gave An Jue a warm hug.

"Gengar, where did you go?" An Jue asked with a smile.

As soon as An Jue finished speaking, he saw two Golett carrying a bamboo basket walking over, the bamboo basket was full of various vegetables.

"Gengar ~ Gengar ~ ~" Gengar pointed to the vegetables and gestured, it turned out that it had gone to prepare the ingredients needed for tonight's noodle shop.

An Jue couldn't help but say, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Gengar ~ Gengar ~" Gengar shook its head, then smiled again and gave An Jue a hug.

It didn't feel hard at all, on the contrary, it felt very happy.

It was Master who gave it a place to belong, taught it cooking skills, and it felt that it was spending every day very fulfilling.

Because it was still early, Gengar didn't need to rush to prepare for the evening's work, so there was one more Gengar in An Jue's team.

Under Gengar's guidance, An Jue saw Goodra and two Goomy in the pond next to the vegetable garden.

Goodra and Goomy liked to be quiet and were not good at contacting others, and there were usually very few other Pokémon near the pond next to the vegetable garden, so they gradually liked this place.

When Ange arrived, the two Goomys were leisurely swimming around on the surface of the pond.

The Goodra was lying on the bank, its lower body submerged in the water, taking a nap with its eyes closed. Judging from the contented expression on its face, it must have been very comfortable at that moment.

Two Woopers were playing on its thick tail, which was above the water, using it as a slide.

Clearly, the Goodra and Goomys got along very well with the Woopers, Mudkip, and Whiscash brothers who lived in the pond.

Ange hadn't originally intended to disturb the Goodra and Goomys' leisurely time, but the Goodra happened to open its eyes at that moment and noticed Ange.

So Ange took the initiative to wave and greet it.

"Yo, Goodra."

"Goodra ~" Seeing Ange return, Goodra first looked surprised, then waved to Ange with a smile.

Having spent so much time with Ange, it and the Goomys no longer wanted to be as skittish as they had been at the beginning.

"Wooper ~ Wooper ~" Hearing Ange's voice, the two Woopers immediately jumped off Goodra's tail and quickly swam to the shore.

Ange walked to the edge of the pond and patted each of their heads, saying, "Wooper, have you become friends with Goodra and the others?"

"Wooper ~ Wooper ~"

"Wooper ~ Wooper ~"

The two Woopers nodded vigorously.

Ange smiled and said, "You're such good kids. Then I'll have to ask you to take care of Goodra and the others from now on."

"Wooper ~"

"Wooper ~"

Upon hearing this, the two Woopers immediately seemed to accept an important mission, nodding solemnly.

At this time, Mudkip and Whiscash also emerged from the water one after the other to greet Ange.

Ange then said to them, "Mudkip and Whiscash, you must also get along well with Goodra and the others."

Mudkip and Whiscash nodded.

The two Goomys had also swam to the shore, gathering around Goodra, listening to Ange instructing the Woopers and Whiscash to take care of them, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

However, along with the embarrassment, a warm current welled up in their hearts.

They knew that because of their special experiences, Ange had always been intentionally or unintentionally taking care of them in various ways.

After coming to the Nibel Plateau and seeing the living conditions of the Pokémon here, Goodra and the Goomys had completely fallen in love with this place, and at the same time, they silently recognized Ange in their hearts.

After sitting by the pond and chatting with the Pokémon for a while, Ange continued to look for the Eevees.

But where did the Eevees go?

Ange asked Gengar, but Gengar said he didn't know.

Just then, a Tropius flew over from the sky, so Ange waved to it.

After Tropius landed, it lowered its head to Ange, expressing its closeness to him.

Ange patted its neck and asked, "Tropius, have you seen the Eevees?"

"Trop ~ ~" Tropius shook its head.

"Okay, I'll ask the other Pokémon." Ange patted Tropius's neck and said.

"Trop ~" Tropius nodded, flapping its wings and flying back into the sky.

Leaving the vegetable garden, Ange came to the grassland and saw Solrock, which was suspended high in the sky, gathering solar energy.

"Solrock!" Ange called out loudly.

"Solrock ~ ~" Hearing this, Solrock quickly descended from the sky.

Because it had just been gathering solar energy, it was emitting a terrifying high temperature, scaring Ange and the others to quickly move away.

"Solrock ~ Solrock ~" Solrock smiled embarrassedly upon seeing this.

"Solrock, have you seen the Eevees?" Ange asked.

The Eevees? Solrock shook its head.

"I see... Then you continue to be busy, I'll go look elsewhere," Ange said.

"Solrock ~ ~" Solrock nodded and then rose into the sky again.

"Strange, where did these three guys go?" Ange wondered as he searched.

Munchlax, Sandygast, and Gengar were all looking around as they walked (flew), helping Ange to search, only Bronzor silently observed the surrounding environment.

This is where it will live from now on...

And so, Ange searched everywhere for the Eevees.

The Pokémon they encountered along the way were happy to see him return and came forward to greet him.

However, none of them had seen the Eevees.

According to Lunatone, it had seen the three of them around noon, but hadn't seen them since.

But where were the three Eevees at this time?

Actually, they didn't know either.

Originally, they were playing hide-and-seek with Tyrunt today.

Who knew that when it was their turn to be 'it', Tyrunt actually used Dig to hide underground.

How could they possibly find him?

So they could only give up and let Tyrunt come out on his own.

After Tyrunt came out of the hole, Flareon lay on the edge of the hole, looking at the deep cave, and suddenly had a whimsical idea: if Tyrunt kept digging, what would he dig to?

After it brought up this idea, the four Pokémon decided to play an underground exploration game.

Relying on Tyrunt alone to dig was not enough, so they also found Drilbur, Lairon, and Diggersby, who were good at digging.

And so, an exploration team consisting of Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Tyrunt, Drilbur, Lairon, and Diggersby was formed.

Before the exploration began, they needed to choose a place to start digging down from.

After thinking for a long time, they came to the bottom of the cliff at the edge of the Nibel Plateau.

It was the cliff where Paras and Parasect were growing mushrooms.

Of course, the location they chose was far from the mushroom-growing cave.

After the location was selected, the digging work began.

"Vaporeon ~ ~" With Vaporeon's order, Tyrunt, Drilbur, Lairon, and Diggersby's digging race began.

Under the hard work of the three Pokémon, a sloping downward passage gradually took shape.

Some of the mineral-containing soil produced during the excavation was eaten by Lairon.

And so, they went all the way down, not knowing how long they had dug, nor how deep they had dug, or what they had dug to.

The further down they went, the dimmer the light became, and Jolteon had to flicker a ball of electricity from its body for lighting.

As time went on, Diggersby gradually became afraid, so it said:

"Diggersby ~ Diggersby ~ ~" Why don't we just go back!

Drilbur immediately retorted: "Drilbur ~ Drilbur ~" You're too timid, it's just a little dark, what's there to be afraid of.

"Flare ~ Flare ~" That's right, that's right!

Although Flareon was also a little scared in its heart, for the sake of face, it pretended to be fearless, sticking out its chest and confidently walking in front of Vaporeon.

"Vaporeon ~ Vaporeon ~" Vaporeon looked at Flareon with admiration, and even licked Flareon's face.

So Flareon glanced at Jolteon triumphantly, sticking its chest out even higher.

╮ ( ╯ ▽ ╰ ) ╭ Jolteon sighed deeply.

In short, for the sake of face, no one flinched, and the adventure continued.

After digging for an unknown amount of time, a hard boulder blocked the path of the Pokémon.

Seeing this, Drilbur volunteered to go forward.

"Drilbur ~ Drilbur ~" Leave it to me.

Then it combined its claws together and used Rapid Spin.

Its claws collided with the stone, making a teeth-aching sound and sparks flying, but the stone was not damaged in the slightest.

"Drilbur ~" How could this be?

Drilbur looked at the front in a daze.

"Lairon ~ Lairon ~" Let me try.

Lairon stepped forward and said.

Hearing this, Drilbur could only retreat, its strength was indeed not as good as Lairon.

Lairon grabbed the ground with its four feet, then suddenly exerted force and rammed into the stone.

It used the Fighting-type move Take Down.

Unfortunately, the result was the same, apart from a loud noise, the stone was intact.

Then the three Eevees came on stage, they simultaneously used Shadow Ball to hit the stone, after an explosion, the stone was still unharmed.

"Diggersby ~ Diggersby ~" Why don't we just avoid this stone?

Diggersby suggested.

"Lairon ~ Lairon ~" That's the only way.

Lairon nodded.

Then everyone worked together to dig to the side, trying to avoid the stone.

However, they underestimated the size of the stone, after digging for a long time, there was always a boulder blocking the way.
