Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

Kotake immediately replied to Daigo's email, finally understanding that the gem collector who had inquired about the Eviolite was Daigo himself.

Honestly, just talking about the profession of "gem collector," there are quite a few in the Pokémon world. In the games, their trainer types are usually "Gentleman" and "Hiker," so Kotake didn't expect it to be Daigo!

Steven Stone, the champion of the Hoenn region, and a familiar face in Kotake's memory. After all, when playing the Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald versions, you would always see Steven, along with his good friend Wallace, who would always take turns being the champion.

The reason Steven always exchanged the champion title with Wallace was that he wanted to go out and dig for stones. Maybe they should just do a champion class like in the Paldea region, positioning the Elite Four as champion class as well, so Steven could go out whenever he wanted.

That's right, Steven has many rare stones in his possession. Kotake thought of the key thing and quickly sent a reply to Steven.

"I do have some rare stones here."

After receiving Kotake's reply, Daigo on the other side quickly sent back a message and added Kotake as a friend.

{"Hello, let me formally introduce myself. I am Steven Stone, a gem collector, passionate about collecting precious stones. Through some special channels, I learned about your shop and the unique stone you once sold called Eviolite."}

{"I have found the previous buyer and confirmed with them. You previously told me that Eviolite may appear in places where a large number of Pokémon gather. I have also done some research, but I haven't found anything yet."}

{"So, what about the rare stones you mentioned?"}

It's normal not to find anything; Eviolite is not something that can be found so easily.

Kotake immediately sent a message:

"Special rocks that fell off the Legendary Pokémon Regirock."

{"It's a stone from a Legendary Golem?! That's great!"}

Daigo seemed very excited. Kotake judged that the Daigo in this world had not seen the Regi trio, meaning he wasn't the Daigo from the Pokémon Adventures manga.

In the games and main series anime, the Hoenn Regi trio are not Pokémon that must be caught in the storyline, but rather puzzle-type Pokémon. According to the game content, the Hoenn Regi trio probably haven't been caught by anyone and are still sleeping.

After all, the Regi trio are everywhere, and in the games, anime, and manga, the only person who legally owns the Regi trio is Pyramid King Brandon, but his Regi trio are unrelated to the Hoenn Regi trio.

"By the way, I would also like to ask, do you have a Sun Stone and a Dusk Stone?"

{"Evolution stones? Sun Stones and Dusk Stones are quite rare stones. Unfortunately, I don't have a Sun Stone on hand, but I do have a Dusk Stone, which was excavated from Mt. Pyre a long time ago. If you need it, I can give it to you as a gift."}

Kotake was immediately happy: "That's great, but I can buy it with money."

{"No, this is a personal gift, please accept it. Actually, I also have a little selfishness. If you have an Eviolite, or find a new Eviolite, I hope to be able to purchase it."}

A new Eviolite... I actually have one on hand, but that's what I gave to Doublade.

While Kotake was pondering, Doublade suddenly made a sound, asking Kotake about the meaning of the words on the computer, and Kotake could only explain.

Unexpectedly, after listening, Doublade rolled its eyes.

"Yo wu~"

Since someone wants it, then it's okay to sell it to him!

Anyway, you won't need this stone after you evolve!

Kotake was a little puzzled. Doublade used to value gems very much. Why would it take the initiative to sell the stone to others?

Doublade's two ribbons hugged each other, as if making a gesture of folding its arms, even though it doesn't have a chest.

"Yo pu. Yo wu wu!"

I have a new plan. After seeing those seductive nation-building speeches from that terrible customer, I think there are still some things to learn from that guy's operations!

So, this is not a white sale, but a sale of favors!

With this stone as a foundation, this strong person will become your servant in the future!

If you want to be a king, you have to gather powerful people from all over the place as your subordinates. This is called winning people's hearts! I am paving the way for you!

How about it, I am still a qualified minister!

Plan complete!

Kotake was stunned, then sighed.

So that's what's going on, it's still related to that chuuni nation-building plan.

However, no matter what, Doublade is also helping me! Kotake collected his spirits:

"That's right, anyway, after you get the evolution stone, you won't need the Eviolite anymore, but it's a pity that there is no Sun Stone. Otherwise, Petilil could also evolve." Kotake looked at Petilil, who waved its leaves, indicating that it didn't matter!

"Wawa!"

I am very strong even if I don't evolve now!

Kotake thought for a while and decided not to reveal the Eviolite for the time being, and to talk in person after Daigo came. Before that, Petilil could use the Eviolite when she went to reclaim her habitat.

It's better to keep this stone in my hands for a while longer, after all, it still has a big use now.

So Kotake agreed to Daigo's request, and the latter immediately sent a reply:

{"Then I will visit around July 5th-6th, is that okay? Let's talk in detail when we meet, I'm really troubling you!"}

Daigo seemed very excited, after all, as long as he talked about stones, he would show an extremely positive side.

In order to collect stones, he could even resign from the position of champion, he can be called a stone fanatic.

"Hoo, Daigo, Devon Corporation is very rich. This is a big customer. In terms of financial resources, only Mr. Burgeois can compare with him? No, Mr. Burgeois probably can't compare either, after all, in the game, this family seems to have gone bankrupt because of acquiring antiques?"

"Bai~"

"Yo wu~"

Petilil and Doublade were also happy beside him.

In short, I got a lot of orders again today!

"Okay, let's go make glass!"

After processing the orders in front of the computer in one breath, Kotake brought the two Pokémon back to the forging room and brought in a wooden bucket containing soft sand.

There is a lot of soft sand in the Rock Tunnel, and Kotake carried back a small half bag, as well as various minerals.

Although there was no Celebi's telekinesis to help on the way back, and the backpack became heavy, relying on the strong physique of humans in the Pokémon world, he still transported these materials back completely.

Unique glassmaking knowledge emerged in his mind.

Preparation: Sand, limestone, soda ash, wood ash.

Melting: Put the sand into the furnace and heat it to a high temperature above 1800°C, and the quartz begins to melt.

Shaping: Use a hollow iron rod to blow and shape the molten glass into various shapes.

Cooling: The glass needs to be cooled quickly after melting to form a uniform and transparent structure.

These are the general steps.

The unique glassmaking process provides the techniques and skills for making glass. As for the temperature of the flame, a small Charizard sculpture has already been placed in this room, plus the high temperature of the furnace, so there is no need to worry about the temperature.

However, Kotake suddenly thought of something, looked at Petilil, who was curiously observing in the forging room, and suddenly said, "By the way, let's try this?"

"Petilil!"

"Wawa?" Petilil turned her head in confusion!

"Use Sunny Day!"

Hearing Kotake's strange order, Petilil was very puzzled, but still used Sunny Day indoors!

Strong sunlight suddenly appeared on the ceiling, and it felt like there was no need for light bulbs. Using Sunny Day indoors can also be used as a light source.

Then Kotake pointed to the furnace:

"Adjust your power and use Weather Ball."

"Wawa?"

Weather Ball... Petilil remembered, it was a move she had obtained through work before!

"Wawa..." Petilil closed her eyes and began to gather strength. Soon, three bubbles were condensed in front of Petilil!

"Wawa!"

The weather bubbles condensed by Petilil burned with flames and were thrown into the furnace by Petilil, and the fire burst into flames!

"Okay, Petilil can participate in forging, the control of Weather Ball is very good!"

Let a grass-type Pokémon participate in fire forging?

That's because my grass-type Pokémon can use fire moves!

"Wawa!"

Petilil didn't expect this move to be used in this way, and she was very happy to be able to participate in another kind of work!

The normal time for making small glass is 2-3 hours, and the time for making large glass will be extended to 8 hours. Soon, the soft sand obtained from the ruins was made into glass liquid.

Kotake was wearing forging clothes and heavy heat-resistant gloves. He gently picked a ball of orange glass liquid with a picking rod at the mouth of the tube. Then, Kotake began to blow the glass liquid into a light bulb-shaped ball, and then began the shaping step.

Scissors, pliers, files, these are all tools that need to be used when shaping glass.

After a while, a "small glass whistle" made of soft sand was completed.

"Yo wu..."

Doublade looked at Kotake and Petilil working and suddenly felt a little lost.

Before the forging room was reopened, it had been following Kotake to carry out all the work, but it couldn't do the work in the forging room!

The steel type is afraid of fire, so it can't go up to shape it either. The red-hot glass products emit scorching heat, making it dare not approach!

"It's okay, every Pokémon has things that they are good at or not good at. You just need to do what you are good at."

Kotake comforted Doublade while looking carefully at the glass whistle he made.

『Completed a craft production!』

『Craft item: Earth Glass Whistle.』

『Description: A prop made of soft sand and common materials using a special glass firing process. Glass products with different attributes may be obtained by using Pokémon materials with different attributes.』

『Craft item effect 1: After the trainer or Pokémon blows it, the power of ground-type moves will increase by 25%.』
