Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

An J suspected something was up, so he walked over and found that everyone was gathered around the Alolan Vulpix Pokémon egg that Professor Oak had given him.

Furthermore, the egg was flashing with white light.

An J said in surprise, "Is it... hatching?"

Professor Oak nodded and said, "That's right. I didn't expect it to hatch so soon. I thought it would take a while longer."

An J didn't expect it either, but he guessed that it was most likely due to the combined influence of Xerneas and the Fairy Plate.

After Professor Oak gave the egg to An J, Diancie had been taking care of it, and Xerneas would use its Fairy Aura to bathe it every once in a while.

Influenced by the Fairy Plate, Xerneas's Fairy Aura was now even stronger than before, which naturally had a greater impact on the unborn Vulpix.

"When did this start?" An J asked Diancie.

And so, everyone continued to gather around the table, quietly waiting for Vulpix to hatch.

At this moment, Snorlax, Ditto, and Aegislash came out of the kitchen, intending to tell everyone that dinner was ready, but seeing everyone quietly waiting for the birth of a new life, they silently swallowed the words they were about to say.

Time passed by, and soon it was noon at 12:00 PM. At this moment, the Pokémon egg suddenly shone brightly.

Professor Oak said in a low voice, "It's about to be born!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Pokémon egg turned into a ball of light.

Then, in a burst of twisting, the ball of light transformed into a white fox Pokémon.

"Goon?"

The newly born little Vulpix blinked its innocent and ignorant blue eyes, blankly observing its surroundings. When it noticed that many people were watching it, it seemed startled and suddenly shrunk into a ball.

It looked around, and when it saw Diancie, it suddenly looked surprised and jumped into Diancie's arms.

Diancie was taken aback by its actions.

"Goon~ Goon~" Vulpix rubbed its head against Diancie's cheek, acting very affectionately.

Professor Oak said, "Diancie has been taking care of Vulpix recently, so Vulpix must have remembered its scent."

"That's right," Professor Magnolia nodded in agreement.

An J looked at Vulpix and said, "Vulpix, I'm An J, this is Nibel Plateau, and this will be your home from now on. Please take care of me."

"Goon~" Vulpix blinked its big eyes at An J, but didn't respond.

At this moment, Diancie gently patted Vulpix, and Vulpix understood and silently extended a paw towards An J.

An J smiled and reached out to hold its paw, and the two officially became partners.

Vulpix

[Type] Ice

[Ability] Snow Warning

[Gender] Female

[Moves] Tail Whip, Powder Snow, Baby-Doll Eyes, Moonblast.

[IVs]

HP: 31

Whether it was influenced by Xerneas, the Fairy Plate, or it was simply born that way, Vulpix's IVs were all perfect.

What a talented little guy.

"Snor~ Snor~" Dinner is ready!

At this time, Snorlax's voice rang out.

Hearing this, An J quickly invited everyone to take their seats, "Let's eat, let's eat! Everyone must be hungry, right?"

Professor Oak rubbed his stomach and said, "I've been hungry for a long time."

Cynthia smiled and said, "Me too."

After everyone was seated, they realized that Snorlax and the others had made a table full of delicious dishes.

Professor Oak rubbed his hands together and said, "Today's meal is really sumptuous!"

"Snor~ Snor~"

Snorlax patted its belly and replied to Professor Oak. An J translated for it:

"Since Cynthia and Professor Magnolia are here as guests today, we specially made a good meal to entertain them."

"Passi~ Passi~"

At this time, Passimian brought a few bottles of wine and placed them on the table. An J continued to translate for it: "Since we rarely have guests, let's have a drink."

"Passi~ Passi~" Fruit wine for the children, and baijiu for the adults.

Passimian distributed the wine glasses to everyone while speaking, with An J continuing to translate for it.

Soon, everyone happily enjoyed the food and wine, chatting and laughing in a lively atmosphere.

An J kept putting food on the plate in front of Vulpix, smiling and saying to it, "Eat more."

"Goon~" Vulpix gave An J a sweet smile and then continued to bury its head in eating.

Professor Magnolia took a sip of baijiu, feeling the hot stimulation in her throat, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Good wine!"

Hearing this, Passimian's face showed a look of pride.

Then, Professor Magnolia asked in confusion, "An J, didn't you say that Giratina is here with you? Why haven't I seen it?"

An J explained, "You've misunderstood. Giratina isn't here with me. It just comes to visit occasionally."

Hearing this, Professor Magnolia looked disappointed, "It seems my luck isn't good. I didn't catch Giratina's visit."

Professor Oak said, "If you wait a day or two, Giratina will definitely appear."

Professor Magnolia thought for a while and asked, "An J, I wonder if I have the honor, like Oak, to study at Nibel Plateau for a period of time?"

An J readily agreed, "Of course."

Hearing this, Professor Magnolia looked surprised, "Then I'll be bothering you for a while."

After lunch, Professor Magnolia, Cynthia, Professor Oak, and Blue went to continue researching the legendary Pokémon, while An J went to receive the people sent by Diantha.

Diantha had only said in the morning that she wanted to build a gym, and in the afternoon she sent people with a construction team and materials.

In fact, she had already prepared everything, waiting only for the approval to come through. Now that the approval was successful, construction could naturally begin immediately.

As soon as the construction team arrived at Nibel Plateau, they discussed with An J and then started working enthusiastically.

Unlike the cold outside, Nibel Plateau was warm like spring, very comfortable, and the workers were particularly energetic.

An J watched at the construction site for a while, and suddenly saw Poliwrath appearing on the shore not far away.

He walked over and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Why are you here?"

"Poliwrath~ Poliwrath~"

Poliwrath explained its purpose. It turned out that the Lapras were about to leave Nibel Plateau.

Every year in autumn, the Lapras would leave Nibel Plateau to migrate, and would not return until the following spring or summer.

Because of An J's careful management, Nibel Plateau had undergone tremendous changes this year, so they postponed their migration time, which was pushed back to winter.

Today, they had finally made up their minds to set off.

After listening to Poliwrath's explanation, An J quickly ran towards Nibel Lake, rushing to say goodbye to the Lapras.

By the time An Jue arrived at the lake, everyone had already gathered on the shore, and the Genesects were also gathered there.

Everyone looked at the Genesects with reluctance, saying things to them one after another.

Seeing An Jue arrive, everyone spontaneously made way for him, and the Genesects also gathered at the shore.

“Woo~” The Genesect leader swam to the front, gently nuzzling An Jue’s neck, bidding him a tender farewell.

An Jue stroked the Genesect’s cheek and said, “Actually, you don’t have to migrate. It’s fine if you stay here.”

“Woo~” The Genesect leader shook its head. If they continued to live so comfortably, the enterprising spirit passed down from generation to generation would gradually be worn away.

An Jue said helplessly, “You guys are too strict.”

“Woo~” The Genesect leader didn't act coy. It told An Jue that they would be back by next summer at the latest. The current separation was only for the sake of future reunion.

An Jue didn't expect that he would be comforted by a Pokémon, so he nodded and said, “Okay, everyone and I will wait for you.”

“Woo~~” After the farewell, the Genesect leader raised its head and let out a long, melodious cry, then took the lead and swam towards the distance.

The other Genesects followed suit.

Watching the Genesects' figures get further and further away, the Bunnelby, Sawsbuck, Pancham, and Swablu all silently wiped away their tears.

“Gong? ?” Whimsicott, nestled in Diancie's arms, didn't understand what separation meant. It looked up at Diancie, asking curiously why everyone was crying.

Diancie patted Whimsicott's back and said, “Everyone is reluctant to see the Genesects leave.”

Whimsicott understood even less. “Gong~ Gong~” Why did the Genesects have to leave? Wasn't this their home?

Diancie explained with a smile, “Because they have their own path to walk.”

Whimsicott asked, “What path?”

Diancie shook her head, “You'll know in the future.”

It wasn't until the Genesects' figures completely disappeared on Lake Nibel that everyone gradually left.

An Jue stood by the lake for a while before preparing to turn around and leave.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a system notification.

He paused, then opened the system to check.

As soon as he opened the system, the taskbar popped up, indicating that a task had been completed.

“Congratulations, Master, for completing the [Temporary Task] of building a desirable nest for Genesect.

Reward: Individual Value +2, Constitution +2, High-Tech Cannon Construction Platform * 1, Douse Drive * 1, Burn Drive * 1, Shock Drive * 1, Chill Drive * 1.”

Seeing the task rewards, An Jue was stunned.

The first two items were regular rewards, so An Jue wasn't surprised at all, but the following rewards surprised him. They were actually related to Genesect's exclusive move.

In the game, Genesect is a Pokémon that has undergone human modification, and its exclusive move, High-Tech Cannon, was created because of this modification.

However, An Jue's Genesect had not been modified. It was revived directly from a fossil, so naturally, it wouldn't have the High-Tech Cannon move.

Although An Jue didn't know what the High-Tech Cannon Construction Platform was exactly, he knew just by hearing its name that it was related to Genesect's exclusive move.

As for the Douse Drive, Shock Drive, Burn Drive, and Chill Drive, they were related to the attributes of the High-Tech Cannon move.

Under normal circumstances, High-Tech Cannon is a Normal-type move, but if Genesect equips the Douse Drive, High-Tech Cannon will change to Water-type.

Correspondingly, if it equips the Burn Drive, Shock Drive, and Chill Drive, High-Tech Cannon will change to Fire-type, Electric-type, and Ice-type respectively.

Thinking of this, An Jue couldn't help but feel a little excited. He should quickly go find Genesect and try out the new rewards!

So he walked towards the location of Genesect's nest. Since the system indicated that Genesect's nest had just been completed, it meant that Genesect was in the nest.

On the way, An Jue added the 2 Individual Values he had just obtained to Aegislash, increasing its Defense.

Aegislash

[Type] Steel, Ghost

[Ability] Stance Change

[Gender] Female

[Level] 63

[Moves] Fury Cutter, Shadow Sneak, Autotomize, Aerial Ace, Metal Sound, Slash, Payback, Night Slash, Iron Defense, Iron Head, Swords Dance, Sacred Sword, Wide Guard, Brick Break, Shadow Claw, Solar Blade, Psycho Cut, Air Slash, Swords Dance.

[Individual Values]

HP: 31

Attack: 31

Defense: 31

Special Attack: 31

Special Defense: 27

Speed: 31

That way, Aegislash would only have Special Defense that wasn't maxed out, with 4 points remaining.

Take it slow. With at most one or two more tasks, Aegislash could also be fully maxed out.

Soon, An Jue arrived at Genesect's nest. From afar, he saw Genesect happily flying around its newly built nest.

“Genesect!” An Jue shouted loudly and waved vigorously.

Seeing An Jue, it swooped down to the shore.

An Jue said with a smile, “Congratulations, the nest is finally built.”

“Cough cough~” Genesect flew around in the air happily.

“Come, come, I have a gift for you.”

Saying that, An Jue took out the High-Tech Cannon Construction Platform he had just obtained from his system backpack.

It was something that looked like a cannon barrel, which was used to fire the High-Tech Cannon.

Upon hearing that, Genesect flew to An Jue's side, looking at the thing in An Jue's hand with curiosity.

An Jue held the Construction Platform and gestured around Genesect, then a flash of inspiration hit him, and he aimed it at Genesect's back.

The moment it came into contact with Genesect, luminous lines appeared at its base, like veins.

These veins extended to Genesect's body, and the entire cannon platform instantly seemed to grow on Genesect's back, without any sense of disharmony.

An Jue quickly asked, “Genesect, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Genesect quickly shook its head, while constantly looking behind it.

There was nothing wrong, it was just that something suddenly appeared on its back, making it feel a little unnatural.

“That's good.” An Jue breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he said, “Try to see if you can use the High-Tech Cannon move now.”

Genesect nodded, then aimed the cannon at the distance.

After gradually adapting, Genesect found that it could control the newly built cannon with ease, as if it had originally grown on its body.

“Shoo!!!”

A white beam of light shot out of the cannon barrel, flying close to the water surface, leaving a long mark on the water.

“Not bad.” An Jue nodded in satisfaction.
