Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

The next morning, Kotai woke up early. Although he had done a lot of work yesterday, his body seemed stronger, and his mental state was excellent.

Perhaps this was the change those knowledge had brought to his body. People with psychic abilities and superpowers always have bodies and minds that are different from ordinary people.

July 5th, cloudy. Kotai watered the Turtwig as usual and received a message from Steven, who expected to arrive in the afternoon.

After that, while making breakfast, Kotai suddenly thought of something. He poured Rollout Beans, Twinkling Honey, Smoke Potatoes, and Attract ingredients into a pot, boiled them, poured them into molds, and placed an Ice Stone on top. The cold ice-type energy gradually cooled the paste inside, after which he plated and sliced it.

『You obtained "Lustrous Yokan"!』

『Description: A special product unknown to Celestic Town, capable of removing all status conditions from a Pokémon.』

『You additionally completed a crafting task and obtained a crafting reward!』

『Cooking Food Craft (C+): You can create different hot foods. Through your cooking, the food will have unique effects, bringing buffs and enhancements to Pokémon.』

『Unique Buff: Stamina LV1 - Slightly increases stamina after consumption, making it harder to tire.』

"So, I only needed to make a unique snack to unlock the hot food craft. But although Lustrous Yokan is boiled, it's actually eaten cold."

Kotai looked at the finished Lustrous Yokan, took a bite himself, and his energy seemed to increase. The feeling was obvious!

The effect should be even better if Pokémon absorb it!

Subsequently, Kotai opened his Rotom Phone and searched for the recipe for Pokéblocks.

He had already completely mastered the Attract food crafting route, and now he had cooking food as well. A C+ level craft was already quite impressive. And as Pokéblocks were originally very famous in the Pokémon world, he might be able to try learning it.

Perhaps the Pokéblock craft is B.

Hoenn's Pokéblocks are the most famous in all regions, thanks to the fertile Hoenn soil, which can grow many unique berries that cannot be grown in other regions. General Pokéblocks are made by mixing 2-4 berries in a Berry Blender, or by using a Pokéblock Kit or Berry Blender. However, Kotai didn't have a Berry Blender, so he could only try making them manually.

Pokéblocks can provide Pokémon with necessary nutrients. The smoothness of the berries will affect the fineness of the Pokéblock, and the fineness will increase the Pokémon's sheen. The blocks will also enhance the Pokémon's "Coolness, Beauty, Cuteness, Strength, and Cleverness" - the fifth aspect of Pokémon besides base stats, EVs, IVs, and condition stats.

There were many videos about Coordinator Trainers online. Kotai quickly found a video about making Pokéblocks, posted by someone with many likes. Looking at the person - a blue coat, elegant demeanor, white silk scarf-like hairstyle, small toothbrush mustache, and a square face.

"This is Wallace's teacher, Juan!"

Juan is the former Gym Leader of Sootopolis City, and also the famous runner-up of the Hoenn region, the teacher of Coordinator Master Wallace. While Steven runs off to dig for rocks and Wallace is temporarily the Champion, Juan will reassume his role as the Gym Leader of Sootopolis City, specializing in Water-types and also being a well-known Coordinator.

Kotai followed Juan.

Juan's video explained things in detail:

".The flavor and color of Pokéblocks depend on the types and amounts of berries mixed. The number of Pokéblocks produced equals the number of berries used. For manual production, grind the desired berry powders, add Moomoo Milk and powdered sugar."

"If viewers have the means, they can use a Berry Blender and Pokéblock Machine to make them. During the process of these machines, the berries are densely compressed and mixed. During the production of such Pokéblocks, there is a certain chance of creating Great Pokéblocks. After Pokémon eat them, the corresponding flavor stat increases even more."

"Handmade versions can also make Great Pokéblocks, but the higher the quality of the Pokéblock, the more precious berries are needed. Those with the means can try. Different block colors also correspond to different flavors."

As Juan spoke in the video, he gave a manual demonstration, which Kotai watched carefully.

"I see, the key to manual production is actually similar to making chocolate bars. As long as you can make chocolate, you can make handmade Pokéblocks. And the process is very similar to Rare Candy."

"However, the quality of handmade blocks differs greatly from those made with a Berry Blender. Ordinary quality Pokéblocks are suitable for home use and don't cost much, like Oran Berry blocks, which are very cheap."

Kotai watched the video and began to make them.

However, it seemed impossible to directly steal the other party's skills by watching the video. Or perhaps it was because the video was "edited" and incomplete?

The grinding and boiling parts went without saying, while the cooling part frequently used the Ice Stone. Kotai thought this stone was really useful. With this stone, he didn't even need a refrigerator. The Ice Stone that Wangluo sold him was really effective. It was probably chipped off from a permanent frozen rock or Eternal Ice.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have said you were a profiteer. At least the Ice Stone is extremely useful!"

Now that the Lum Berries had been harvested, Kotai would of course add the Sinnoh Forest Lum Berries to this Pokéblock!

『You obtained: Lum Berry Pokéblock (Great Pokéblock)!』

『Description: A Pokéblock made with Lum Berries and various berry powders, with multiple flavors, but mainly bitter.』

『Effect: Enhances Pokémon's Strength and Cleverness, increases Pokémon's sheen and growth, restores some HP, rich in many nutrients and energy, beneficial to Pokémon's growth.』

『Tip: Eating too much will cause bloating.』

『You additionally completed a crafting task and obtained a crafting reward!』

『Great Pokéblock Craft (B+): The craft of making high-quality Pokéblocks. You have completely mastered the mixing ratio of berries. The Pokéblocks you make have relatively advanced effects.』

Yellow-green blocks should generally be mainly sour, but if you add Lum Berries, you will make bitter blocks.

"Huh?" Turtwig happened to run over. It seemed to have been watching by the flower pot for a long time. Kotai handed the finished Lum Berry block to Turtwig: "Want to try it?"

Turtwig tilted its head, thought of the Attract and mushrooms it had eaten before, and its eyes gradually sparkled.

More delicious food!

If it were in the wild, it would need to be more cautious about what it ate, but after being caught, it didn't have so many concerns. Turtwig took a big bite of the Pokéblock, chewing constantly. Its careful nature liked bitter flavors and disliked astringent flavors. Turtwig liked this flavor of block very much and chewed happily!

Abnormal sounds came from its back and head. Kotai noticed that the powerful herbs and the tender leaves on its head suddenly unfolded and became more beautiful and smooth!

"Increase sheen, how did it increase on the head and herbs? Is it because it belongs to the plant group?"

Kotai chuckled, carefully observing Turtwig's leaves and the plants on its back. After Turtwig devoured several Pokéblocks, it felt like it couldn't eat anymore. Its cheeks puffed up, its stomach bloated, and it let out a big breath!

"Na (hiccup) ~"

"Oh dear, you can't eat too much of this!"

Turtwig's eyes narrowed and it lay down on the kitchen floor.

Doublade floated into the kitchen, very angry to find that Kotai was secretly cutting berries without it. Clearly, it was the kitchen knife!

Then it saw the round Turtwig lying on the ground.

Whose grass pig ran in?

Doublade lifted Turtwig high with its ribbons.

"Yowoo~"

The latest novel is first published at Six 9 Books Bar!

Child, when you are full, the whole kitchen is chanting your name.

"Ah, Doublade, please absorb some of Turtwig's nutrients. It seems to have too much nutrition!"

Kotai remembered that Doublade's previous setting was to absorb the life energy of surrounding creatures, so it could also be used to aid digestion!

This sword has so many functions! A digestion-aiding sword?

"Yowoo~"

Doublade blinked its eyes, suddenly thinking of a good idea. It muttered yowoo-woo - although as a knight's sword, it wasn't used like this, if it added a fat reduction business to the workshop, many people would come for it, right?

So it had so many functions!

Doublade thought, its eyes rolling around, and carried Turtwig out, while Turtwig was hiccuping all the way!

"Learned two food preparation skills, this time the customer base has expanded again. Breeders can also buy food props from me, but limited by the raw materials."

The Lum Berries grown in his orchard were obviously not enough, so he also had to cultivate Lum Berries and other berries in the Ruins Forest. The fruits cultivated by his hand were of better quality, but before that, it was also feasible to buy some ordinary berries from other regions to supplement the materials.

But Kotai also thought that if he wanted to sell Pokéblocks, he seemed to need a breeder or raiser's license, so he searched online and found that it was true, that is, he had to take the exam. He didn't have that kind of certificate.

"It seems I still need to study for a while and then take a breeder's license."

It was no problem to make them at home, but to sell them, you had to have a certificate. This was to prevent unscrupulous people from selling inferior Pokéblocks and fake and shoddy products.

Since the Lum Berries were harvested, Kotai packed a few Lum Berries and sent them to the village.

"This is indeed the miracle fruit, Lum Berry... I didn't expect you to really find it. Among the berries, this is considered rare. Now the pharmacy can prepare more medicines."

The old man from the pharmacy was very grateful to Kotai for sending these Lum Berries. Although there was internet near the village, the villagers did not have Rotom Phones. Usually, if people who investigated the ruins came over, the villagers would trade with them. If not, everyone would live their traditional, secluded lives.

The old man from the pharmacy prepared a new medicine, crushing the Lum Berries, and Kotai watched from the side, looking at the ratio of medicines prepared by the old man from the pharmacy, adding Lum Berries and Energy Roots, information gradually appearing in his mind:

『You actively learned a craft!』

『You obtained: Potent Herbal Medicine Craft (B)!』

『The effect of the medicine you prepare will be additionally increased by 50%. You can use different berries and herbs to make potent herbal medicines with unique effects!』

『Can make: Full Restore, Revive Shard, Revive, Great Herbal Medicine.』

Unlocked the crafting method of the Revive series, and also Full Restore, Kotai was slightly happy, and the old man handed one of them to Kotai after making the medicine.

"This one is my thank you gift. It's a Celestic secret medicine. After eating it, it can enhance physical strength and eliminate diseases. Once there was a disease among the berries here, which caused me to lose a lot of the berries I had accumulated."

Fruit tree infectious disease? Kotai didn't expect to hear such a thing in the Pokémon world, but thinking about it carefully, in the game, the berry garden in the Kalos region seemed to mention a similar situation.

Kotai took the medicine. The crushed Lum Berries and dried medicinal materials were mixed and tanned, becoming a pill-like medicine.

『Craft: Celestic Secret Medicine』

『Description: A secret medicine circulating in ancient Celestic, which can strengthen the body and eliminate diseases. If Pokémon eat it, all of the Pokémon's physical abilities will increase slightly, which can make it break the limit!』

『Through potent herbal medicine making skills, you can make Celestic secret medicine.』

Physical fitness! This was once again seeing something that could strengthen physical fitness, and it was all physical fitness! That is to say, speed, strength, skill, endurance, and jumping ability would all grow, but there was no effect of strengthening attribute energy.

Its core material and Rare Candy were both Lum Berries, so he was afraid he would have to set up an orchard specifically for Lum Berries.

In the Johto region, the medicines that enhance physical fitness were "apricon juice" and the old man's secret medicine, but apricon juice could only temporarily enhance physical fitness for a period of time, which was time-limited, and could not exceed the upper limit of the Pokémon's maximum physical fitness at the same time.

After bidding farewell to the old man from the pharmacy, Kotai returned to the workshop. The roar of Charizard groups sounded in the sky. A large number of Charizard appeared in the distant horizon, gathering like a dragon legion!

Also, huge hot air balloons?!
