Near noon, the rain finally stopped.
The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing bright but not dazzling sunlight.
Zhi Shu took off the hood of his raincoat, looked at Kuailong who was entering a state of enlightenment not far away, and asked Gu Ledun beneath him:
"Gu Ledun, do you think Kuailong can successfully understand praying for rain?"
Therefore, Luden opened his mouth and yawned: "Ah, geez..."
Suddenly, Kuailong opened his eyes fiercely.
Then, the sky moved.
Not long after they dissipated, the dark clouds came back again, gathering and colliding with each other on Kuailong's head.
Looking at this scene, Naoki felt a little excited.
Success?
However, the expected rain did not come.
The dark clouds gathered and dispersed quickly.
The weather became sunny again.
Seeing that praying for rain failed, Kuailong looked up at the sky blankly, seeming a little confused.
Zhi Shu rode Gu Ledun and flew to its side and asked, "How is it?"
"Ouch..."
Naoki followed its gaze toward the sky, thoughtfully, and asked: "Is it the same as the one hundred thousand volts just now?"
Kuailong felt it carefully, and then a blank look appeared on his face.
It doesn't understand either.
Seeing this, Naoki fell into deep thought.
The power of One Hundred Thousand Volts among electric-type moves can be ranked high, and correspondingly, its learning difficulty will also increase.
Judging from Kuailong's performance just now, it seemed to be imitating the process of lightning striking it and then being launched out by it.
But he didn't realize the essence of one hundred thousand volts, so he failed to use it.
What about praying for rain?
Kuailong had just successfully summoned the dark clouds, and was only one step away from successfully praying for rain, but failed at the critical moment.
However, Kuailong seemed to have successfully realized something from the rain.
This is enough, at least it can summon dark clouds. As long as you practice more, you will be able to pray for rain one day.
After all, this is the first time I've used it, so it's already pretty good.
Zhi Shu was satisfied, and he couldn't help but think that Kuailong seemed to have become smarter.
Although it understood the Thunder Fist by accident, Praying for Rain learned it on its own.
For an ordinary Pokémon, this is really an exaggeration.
Or was it that the thunder just split open the dragon?
But then I thought about it, Kuailong understood Dragon Tail within a few days before, which shows that its understanding is not that bad, but its brain is relatively straightforward and it doesn't know how to use the moves.
Thinking of how it had been deceived by him before, Naoki thought it was possible.
And this fast dragon works hard enough!
If this is the case, then he has found a treasure!
The few people returned to the ground, and Zhi Shu led Kuailong to the farmland area and planned the next training direction for it.
"Don't worry about the 100,000 volt thing. Let's use the faster rain prayer first. From now on, you can practice rain prayer here!"
"Ouch~" Kuailong readily agreed. Even if Naoki didn't say anything, it would work hard to practice praying for rain until it successfully used this move.
Seeing this scene, Naoki smiled and said: "After you finish practicing, I will leave the work of watering the ground to you!"
"Huh?" Kuailong blinked, looking puzzled.
Naoki did not explain to Kuailong, but told it a story.
The protagonist of the story is a Pokémon named Keldeo.
It has a hard-working character and practices drawing and swinging its sword every day. After drawing its sword ten thousand times, it finally mastered a unique magic move.
With just one move of the Holy Sword, he defeated Kyurem, the legendary Pokémon known as the strongest dragon.
At this point, Naoki changed his subject and said with exaggerated rhetoric:
"Maybe you can only make it rain in this small area now, but as long as you keep practicing, one day, the whole world will be covered in rain, and all Pokémon will look up to you."
"Ouch!"
Kuailong's eyes lit up with a "swish" sound.
Although I don’t know what Kyurem is and who Keldeo is, these sound very powerful!
It immediately took over the watering task, turned around and stood in front of the farmland area, and began to practice praying for rain.
Naoki: "..."
Sure enough, he is still so innocent!
He patted Kuailong on the shoulder with a smile on his face: "Work hard!"
Let Kuailong practice here, Naoki turned around and took off his raincoat, casually put it on the fence, and then walked towards the chicken hut.
On the way, Zhi Shu continued to think about whether there was any food that could help Kuai Long.
But due to his limited thinking, he couldn't think of any food that could increase the dragon attribute of Pokémon.
This made Naoki feel a little distressed.
What if you start with something unconventional?
Such as dragon teeth, dragon scales and so on.
Can grinding these things into powder and making them into dishes for Kuailong can strengthen it?
Naoki wanted to try, but it was difficult to obtain these two things.
Although the teeth and scales can be extracted directly from the dragon, this dragon is still very young and has not reached the age to shed its scales and teeth.
Forcibly removing the scales and teeth will cause considerable harm to the animal, which can hurt it to death.
Naoki continued to think.
His brain was running rapidly, from Pokémon's moves, to props in the game, to various dragon-related items.
At this moment, Naoki suddenly noticed a move.
That is the grace of nature!
Nature's Grace: A general move that gains power from tree fruits to attack. Depending on the fruit carried, the attributes and power of the move will also change accordingly.
According to this move, it can be deduced that the tree fruits also contain different attribute energies!
Tree fruits related to dragons...
Information about several tree fruits came to Naoki's mind.
Leba fruit, lemon fruit, Jiazhen fruit, berry fruit.
So, can we start from these kinds of tree fruits?
Although it was possible to make dishes using tree fruits, Naoki had a better idea.
That's Baofen and the Energy Cube!
Both of these are Pokémon snacks made from tree fruits.
Thinking of this, Naoki made up his mind to go to the town to visit the dessert shop after it clears up tomorrow.
As for now, he has to settle the newly hatched chicks.
Entering the chicken hut, Naoki deliberately looked around and observed the situation inside the house.
The small plum blossom footprints on the floor were still there, but other than that, nothing else appeared.
This shows that the other party did not visit here during this period.
Naoki didn't think much and decided to look back.
Newly hatched chicks are very fragile and immature. They need to be kept in a warm environment with adequate water and appropriate feed.
Yes, the right amount of feed.
Unlike Pokémon, these little yellow chickens are not very smart, and they do not feel obviously full after eating.
Therefore, as long as there is food in the feed trough, they will keep eating until they finally starve themselves to death.
Therefore, Naoki canceled the free-feeding system in the chicken hut and adopted artificial feeding until the group of chicks grew up before reinstating it.
He added an appropriate amount of feed to the feed trough, and closed the doors and windows of the chicken house tightly to prevent the chickens from running outside, or from cold wind and rain blowing in.
After all this work, the time came to noon, and Naoki began to prepare lunch for many Pokémon.
After lunch, he started to make green grass dumplings with glutinous rice flour and green grass.
Because the horse lamb ate too quickly, he steamed a lot this time. He was busy until four o'clock in the evening, when the green grass dumplings came out one after another.
After putting the grass dumplings away, Naoki glanced at the time.
Oops! It’s already half past four, and we have to start preparing dinner again soon!
After a busy day, Naoki felt physically tired and his wrists were a little sore, feeling like he was exhausted from a farming game.
He moved a small bench and sat under the eaves, looking at his prosperous pasture. Although he was physically exhausted, he felt very satisfied in his heart.
"Huh, it would be great if there was a hot spring!"
When you are tired, you can go in and take a dip to relax.
But unfortunately, Zhiqin Town is located in the northwest of Padia. The nearby terrain is dominated by plains, snow-capped mountains and lakes. Without volcanoes, hot springs would naturally not be possible.
However, it's not completely impossible.
Naoki suddenly thought of a dish he once made - hot iron cubes.
That dish has an additional effect, that is, when it is eaten by Xi Dolanen, its favorability will be slightly increased.
If I could abduct Xi Doranen...
At that time, all we need to do is dig a cave under the pasture, let Sidoran create magma to live in, and then build an artificial hot spring on the surface.
Sidroane got a breeder and a new house, and he got a hot spring.
Then you can take your cute Pokémon to soak in the hot springs.
This kind of life is a beautiful thing to think about!
However, the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is very skinny.
The old-fashioned wall clock in the house chimed on time. It was five o'clock and he was going to prepare dinner.
Looking at the pile of ingredients in front of him waiting for him to process, Naoki couldn't help but take a deep breath.
no! The family also needs a Pokémon that is good at housework to help him handle the ingredients and organize the housework!
For example, the love steward and the magic wall doll.
Both of these are Pokémon that are very good at housework.
Because of Ash's Magic Wall Doll in the anime, the fact that the Magic Wall Doll can do housework has become deeply rooted in people's hearts.
It can clean the yard, wake up Xiaozhi, and wash the dishes. Not only that, it is also very smart and an excellent housework expert.
The housework ability of Tussy is not inferior to that of the Magic Wall Doll. After all, this is the Pokémon that serves as Ms. Joy's assistant in the Galar region.
There are both male and female escorts, and different genders are good at different things.
The male love steward is like a housekeeper, always staying by his master's side to take care of everything. He will use his mental power to predict the trainer's actions and take care of his daily life.
The female caretaker is very good at raising children. She hates fighting and can exchange information with each other through the collision of horns between partners.
But both males and females will diligently take care of humans and Pokémon everywhere in search of joy and a happy mood of gratitude.
This is because positive emotions are the source of its energy, and it uses its horns to receive the positive emotions of other creatures and then convert them into its own energy.
However, there does not seem to be a Pokémon like the Wall Doll inhabiting the Padia region.
And there are some who love to take care of themselves.
"It seems that I have to pay more attention to the information about the caretaker in the future." Naoki thought.
Since today was too busy, Naoki went to bed early after dinner.
Early the next morning, Naoki woke up from his sleep, feeling sore all over and dizzy.
His heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but think: "Is it possible that I have a fever?"
No way? Wasn't it just that it rained for a while yesterday?
Sitting up from the bed, Naoki looked around and started thinking with his groggy brain.
There was no thermometer or fever-reducing medicine at home, so it seemed like he would have to go to the hospital in town.
At this time, Gulton and Motorized Lizard, who were lying beside the bed, noticed his condition and came forward with worried expressions on their faces.
"Quaao..."
"Ghiss..."
Naoki touched their heads one by one and said with a smile: "It's okay. It's probably a fever caused by the rain. It's a minor illness. I'll just go to the town to buy some medicine and come back later."
With that said, Naoki got up and started preparing breakfast.
Therefore, Luton and the Motorized Lizard followed closely behind and never left.
Frosty Milk Fairy and Mini Fu also looked worried.
Frost Milk Fairy jumped onto the stove and said sadly: "Ma..."
Kuailong, who came out of the elf ball and was about to deliver milk, immediately looked remorseful after learning the news.
"Woo..."
If it wasn't for him to practice praying for rain, Naoki wouldn't have gotten sick.
Kuailong was filled with self-blame.
Seeing their appearance, Naoki suddenly felt dumbfounded. He sniffed and began to give instructions to several Pokémon:
"It's really okay, Kuailong. You go and give the goat's milk to Mrs. Dantès first. Therefore, Minifu, the frost-milk fairy of Leton Motorcycle Lizard, please go and wait aside. Don't crowd here."
Kuailong went to deliver milk with worry in his heart.
The Gullton Pokémon who stepped aside looked at each other, exchanged a few words with each other, and then began to help Zhi Shu with the work of the ranch.
Therefore, Luton went to water Zhi Shu, Motor Lizard went to feed the mount lamb, and Frost Milk Fairy brought salty food to the salt house where the Salt Stone Treasures lived.
When Bad Butterfly under the eaves saw this scene, she also flew in and stood beside the bed and looked over worriedly.
The little Mini Fu couldn't do anything but dangle around anxiously.
Naoki looked at this scene amusedly, but for some reason, when he saw the backs of these Pokémon, he felt like "I have a baby who has just grown up" in his heart.
That kind of feeling is like a child raised by oneself who knows how to help his parents with work.
Not bad, you are sensible.
Naoki smiled happily and continued to prepare breakfast.
Because of my health, today's breakfast was very simple. I fried a few eggs, sliced tomatoes, and used them to make sandwiches.
The sandwiches were just finished and a few Pokémon returned.
Naoki's appetite was not very good, so he let them eat first, while he went to the chicken hut and fed the chickens himself.
At this moment, he made a series of small plum blossom-shaped footprints in the room.
It had just rained and the ground was not completely dry yet. The unknown creature probably accidentally got mud on the way here, so it left footprints again.
It looks like a creature that walks on all fours.
The other party's goal is very clear, it is still the chicken feed in the trough.
This time, Naoki was a little cautious and prepared to make a trap to see if he could catch this "thief".
