Chapter 289: Settling New Partners

Watching the interaction between Angie, Diancie, and Munchlax, Miss Petilil couldn't help but space out.

The harmonious atmosphere between Angie and Diancie reminded Miss Petilil of the scenes between the Bonehide Krookodile and Xiao Chen, which were also so harmonious and intimate.

But all of that was an illusion.

Just as Miss Petilil was spacing out, Angie introduced it, Floette, and Flabébé to Diancie and Munchlax.

"Diancie, Munchlax, this is Miss Petilil, Floette, and Flabébé. Due to some special reasons, they will be staying with us for a while."

Upon hearing this, Diancie immediately extended a friendly welcome to Miss Petilil, "Hello, I'm Diancie. Welcome to Nibel Plateau."

"Gang~ Gang~" Munchlax also greeted Miss Petilil and the others with a smile.

Miss Petilil was very friendly towards Pokémon, and it responded to Diancie and Munchlax in a gentle manner.

"Li Di~ Li Di~" Hello, nice to meet you.

"Hoo La~"

"Labe~"

Floette and Flabébé were also very enthusiastic in greeting Munchlax and Diancie. They flew to Diancie's side, excitedly circling around it, sensing a very comfortable aura from Diancie.

Then Angie added, "By the way, I've brought back some more partners, and we need to settle them in properly."

With that, he led the Pokémon out of the house.

As soon as he stepped out, he saw Flareon, Jolteon, Vaporeon, and Umbreon rushing towards him.

"Shawa~" Angie, you're back!

"Sander~" We missed you so much!

......

The four Eevee surrounded Angie, constantly rubbing their heads against Angie's legs, expressing their longing for Angie during this time and welcoming Angie's return.

Angie squatted down and patted each of the four Eevee on the head, then mysteriously said, "I brought you new companions."

The four Eevee looked up at him in unison upon hearing this.

Angie took out a Poké Ball, and the next second, Glaceon and Salamence appeared outside.

Glaceon, which was as big as a calf, startled the other four Eevee as soon as it came out.

"Glace~ Glace~" Seeing the four members of its own kind looking at it in surprise, Glaceon raised a smiling face and greeted everyone friendly.

Angie had already told it about the existence of Flareon, Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Umbreon in advance, so it had been looking forward to meeting everyone.

Glaceon's smile instantly broke the barrier between everyone, and the other four Eevee affectionately gathered around Glaceon, rubbing their heads against it.

Glaceon was the tallest of the five Eevee, and it had to lower its head when interacting with the other four.

Then Angie introduced Salamence to the Eevee.

"This is Salamence, Glaceon's good friend."

"Ao Wu~" Salamence waved its claws and greeted the Eevee.

Seeing Glaceon meeting so many of its own kind, it was very happy for Glaceon.

At first, the Eevee were startled by Salamence's ferocious appearance, but seeing Salamence's friendly attitude, they happily responded to Salamence.

"Blacky!"

Vaporeon stepped forward and said.

Then the five Eevee left, chatting and laughing.

After the Eevee were gone, Angie said to Diancie and the others, "Let's continue to settle the other partners!"

"Well, where to next?" Diancie asked.

Angie replied, "To the Hive."

So the group walked towards the Hive, with Salamence flying above Angie's head along the way.

Halfway there, Salamence saw Latios and Latias, so it happily flew over to the siblings and enjoyed the scenery of Nibel Plateau with them.

When Angie and the others arrived at the Hive, they didn't see the two Combee.

Diancie said, "They should be at the flower field right now!"

As soon as Diancie finished speaking, they saw the two Combee returning with pollen, chatting and laughing.

"Honey~" It's Angie!

"Honey~" Angie is back!

Upon seeing Angie, they immediately excitedly sped up and flew back to the Hive.

"Honey~" Angie, miss you, miss you!

"Honey~" Angie, why are you only back now!

The two Combee circled around Angie like enthusiastic puppies.

Angie happily interacted with the two Combee, extending his palm, and the two Combee gently landed on it.

Angie asked, "This time I've brought back some new partners, would you like to live with them?"

Although Angie wanted to settle Beedrill and Combee together, he still felt it was better to ask the Combee for their opinion first.

If the Combee didn't want to live with Beedrill, then he would build another Hive.

But he was obviously overthinking it, as the Combee welcomed new partners very much.

"Honey~" Willing! Willing!

"Honey~" Willing! Willing!

The Hive that Angie built for them was very big, but only the two of them lived there, and the two Combee sometimes couldn't help but feel a little lonely, so they welcomed the arrival of new partners very much.

Seeing the two Combee agree, Angie took out a Poké Ball and released the Beedrill.

"Spi Bi~ Spi Bi~"

The Beedrill looked around at the unfamiliar environment in confusion after coming out, then their eyes all fell on Angie.

Angie smiled and introduced, "This is where you will live from now on. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask the Combee, they are your roommates."

"Honey~ Honey~" The two Combee heard Angie mention their names and immediately greeted the Beedrill in a friendly manner.

"Spi Bi~ Spi Bi~"

The Beedrill also responded to the two Combee in a friendly manner.

Then Angie placed the Beedrill's original Hive into the honeycomb, so that the Beedrill officially settled in Nibel Plateau.

After the Hive was settled, the Beedrill leader flew into the Hive and took out a portion of the honey they had stored, flying to the two Combee.

"Spi Bi~ Spi Bi~" Give to you, eat, delicious!

It friendly handed the honey to the two Combee.

The two Combee looked at Angie in confusion, and Angie said with a smile, "Hurry up and accept it, this is the Beedrill's greeting gift to you!"

"Honey~"

"Honey~"

The two Combee happily took the honey upon hearing this, and then tasted it in small sips.

"Honey~" So delicious!

"Honey~" So sweet! So sweet!

The two Combee praised while eating.

The Beedrill were very happy to receive praise for the honey they had brewed, and they gathered around the Combee, talking to them all at once.

Watching the harmonious interaction between Combee and Beedrill, a gratified smile appeared on An Jie's face.

"Combee, would you mind taking the Beedrill around for a bit? They're new to Mount Nibel and don't know the environment here yet."

"Hani~"

"Hani~"

Two Combee readily agreed and flew towards the flower field with the Beedrill.

For Combee and Beedrill, the most important place is, of course, the flower field!

After watching the Beedrill and Combee leave, An Jie headed home with Diancie and the others, when Vivillon fluttered through the air.

Florges used its vine whip to pull two Vivillon, having them carry it as it flew in the air.

One Vivillon looked down and happened to see An Jie waving at them, so it happily swooped down.

"Lee~~"

Seeing this, the other Vivillon followed their companion and swarmed towards An Jie.

Florges landed with the Vivillon and happened to see Floette and Flabébé following An Jie.

"Roze~"

Likewise, Floette and Flabébé also saw Florges.

"Hula~"

"Labe~"

They flew to Florges' side and looked at it with curious eyes.

This was the first time Florges had seen its own kind, and it stretched out its arms, and Floette and Flabébé immediately understood and sat on them.

While An Jie was interacting with the Vivillon, Florges, Floette, and Flabébé were also communicating amicably.

Floette and Flabébé greatly admired Florges as their final evolution and chattered to Florges, making their teacher, Lilligant, very jealous.

Honestly, getting so close to others so easily, be careful you don't get sold!

After the chat, Florges extended an invitation to Floette and Flabébé, inviting them to visit the orchard together.

Florges was very proud of the orchard it had cultivated.

Floette and Flabébé were very tempted, so they all looked at Lilligant.

Seeing this, An Jie persuaded, "Let them go, there won't be any danger on Mount Nibel."

Lilligant snorted and waved impatiently at its students.

"Lidee~ Lidee~" Go on, go on!

"Hula~"

"Labe~"

Floette and Flabébé immediately cheered excitedly.

So Floette and Flabébé flew away again with Florges and the Vivillon.

On the way back, An Jie saw Dragonite practicing delivering takeout, each with a small satchel on its back.

Lilligant asked suspiciously, "What are they doing?"

An Jie explained, "Practicing delivering takeout."

"Delivering takeout?" Lilligant didn't understand.

Diancie explained, "It's a service where people order food from our shop online, and then we deliver it to their door."

After spending this time with An Jie, Lilligant already knew what the internet was, but even so, it still found it incredible.

The internet, what a convenient tool!

It exclaimed, "Humans are truly incredible, they can even do something like this!"

Diancie smiled and said, "Indeed, humans are a very incredible species. Although they don't have the various powers and abilities that we do, they possess a creativity that we cannot match."

Hearing this, Lilligant fell silent. The more it came into contact with humans, the more its disgust and hatred for humans wavered.

Was it really wrong?

Thinking this, it turned its head and stared blankly at An Jie.

An Jie had just finished waving to the Dragonite and looked down to see Lilligant staring straight at him.

He looked at himself and asked suspiciously, "Lilligant, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with me? Or did I get something dirty on me?"

"Hmph~" Lilligant snorted and turned its head away, walking forward without looking back, "It's nothing!"

An Jie looked at Diancie and Munchlax with a questioning gaze, completely confused.

Diancie spread its hands towards An Jie, indicating that it didn't know what was happening either.

"Gang~" Munchlax shook its head blankly.

When he reached the edge of the fence, An Jie saw the Oddish sisters spreading their arms and sunbathing. He slapped his forehead and said:

"How could I forget about this! The Red Buttercup I brought back hasn't been planted yet!"

Diancie asked suspiciously, "Red Buttercup? What's that? A new ingredient you got?"

An Jie explained, "It's not an ingredient, but a very beautiful herb. It will definitely be very beautiful if planted at the door."

Hearing this, Munchlax raised its hand and said, "Master, Master, let's plant it together!"

An Jie rubbed the back of its head and said, "Okay, let's plant it together."

At this time, Gengar, Inteleon, Thwackey, and Dugtrio learned that An Jie had returned and happened to come over.

"Babu~" Dugtrio rushed into An Jie's arms at the first opportunity.

"Babu~ Babu~" An Jie, I miss you so much!

An Jie pinched its cheeks and said, "Do you miss me, or do you miss the food I make?"

Dugtrio had thick skin and generously admitted, "I miss both, I miss both!"

An Jie was amused by it, pinched its cheeks hard, and said, "You little rascal... If you keep eating like this, you'll turn into a fragrant pork."

"Babu~ Babu~" Dugtrio covered its face and grinned foolishly, silently breaking free from An Jie's arms, pinching its chubby belly to indicate that it didn't care if it changed.

An Jie then looked at Inteleon, Gengar, and Thwackey and said, "You guys have worked hard while I was away!"

The work in the store is not easy, and without the support of several apprentices, his store would not be able to continue.

"Geng~ Geng~~" Not hard! Not hard!

Gengar shook its head with a smile. It liked its current life and work and didn't feel tired at all.

"Inte~"

"Pashi~"

Inteleon and Thwackey echoed Gengar.

An Jie said, "Since everyone is here, let's plant Red Buttercup together!"

Saying that, he looked at Lilligant and said, "Lilligant, you are good at cultivating herbs, can you help us see where it is more suitable to plant Red Buttercup?"

Lilligant was silent for a while and nodded gently.

So An Jie and the Pokémon followed Lilligant and surveyed the area.

After a long time, Lilligant stopped on a piece of ground not far from the pond behind the house and said, "Here, this is the most suitable place."

Seeing this, An Jie happily said, "Okay, then let's plant it here."

Saying that, An Jie took out the Red Buttercup, while Munchlax and Dugtrio ran over with a pile of shovels, spades, and other tools.

An Jie picked up a shovel and shouted, "Let's get to work!"
