Huayuan Town.
In the lush green flower fields on the outskirts, two young men were carrying a large camera and pointed it at the female host in formal attire and holding a microphone in front of them.
"There is a fragrance in the wind, the smell of flowers. Hello everyone, this is a special interview program in Zhuqing City. I am the host Huaquan."
After Huaquan smiled and said hello to the camera, he continued: "According to the previous itinerary plan, we came to Huayuan Town today, but what I didn't expect was that we would meet a very famous person here. .
"You can guess who it is first. The key information is - it's not just a trainer."
After a short wait, Huaquan turned slightly and handed the microphone to the side.
But the camera still stopped in place, and the two people holding the camera remained motionless as if they were slow to react.
It wasn't until Hua Quan stared at him with livid eyes that the two of them quickly moved the camera as if they were just waking up from a dream.
A slender woman wearing light-colored casual clothes appeared in the camera. Her dark blue hair was simply tied into a bun, and a red hairpin was stuck above her left forehead. She had a beautiful face and looked very youthful.
Huaquan quickly regained his smile and said loudly: "Dang, dang, dang~ That's right, Miss Caiko, the very famous top coordination trainer in the Sinnoh region who has won several gorgeous large-scale celebrations!"
"Hello everyone."
Caiko smiled and raised her hand in greeting.
"This is the first time Miss Caiko has appeared after retiring. We are very happy to receive this honor."
"No, me too."
"Because we have communicated with Ms. Caiko in advance, some topics that are not that important have been skipped directly. I believe many viewers are very curious about a question, and that is why Ms. Caiko suddenly disappeared at the peak of her career. Have you returned home?" Hua Quan, the female host, asked curiously.
Caiko pondered for a moment and said slowly to the camera: "Because I have basically finished the honor of coordination trainer that I love, so I had the idea of taking a break. I just had a child at that time, so I just decided I chose to withdraw."
"Huh? Does Miss Caiko already have a child?"
"Yes, a very clingy little girl. When she heard that I was coming to Flower Garden Town to collect flower seeds, she insisted on coming with me. She is obviously not interested in flowers at all."
Speaking of her daughter, Caizi smoothed a few strands of hair from her forehead and showed a gentle smile on her lips.
Huaquan immediately expressed that it was not convenient for him to interview his daughter. After thinking deeply, Caizi nodded and waved to someone not far away.
A petite figure who also had dark blue hair and looked about six or seven years old was led by a man and ran towards here quickly, shouting in a childish and sweet voice.
"Mom~~"
Cai Zi also knelt down at this time, smiled and stretched out her hands to welcome him in a hug.
It was such a warm scene of a family of three, and one could not help but laugh at the aunt. Huaquan quickly asked his colleagues to take a complete picture of it.
But no matter how she winked, her colleagues carrying the camera looked blankly at the sky as if they couldn't see her at all.
"These two idiots who like to be in a daze! I will ask the boss to fire you when you get back!"
Huaquan roared in his heart and was about to go outside the camera and kick these two people directly.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew. Before Huaquan could react, he saw a huge shadow that could cover the entire nearby area instantly descend in the direction the two of them were looking.
Raising her head, she saw a figure with hollow purple wings that was so huge that it even surpassed the largest Pokémon in her memory, the Howler King. It bent over and stretched out its semi-mechanized arm. ground.
Then, a young man in casual clothes jumped down and came to Huaquan.
"Excuse me, do you know where there are Gracidia flowers? I've been looking for them for a long time and haven't found them."
"Grassi...what?"
"Gracidia."
"I haven't heard of..."
The young man's face darkened, he nodded and said, "Sorry to bother you."
After saying that, before Huaquan could react, the young man turned around and left directly.
At this time, a voice sounded.
"Are you looking for Gracidia flowers?"
Caizi, who was holding a little girl not far away, stood up and said softly: "This kind of flower is very rare. Before it blooms, it is not much different from ordinary flowers. Moreover, the flowering period is very irregular, so it is difficult to find it. But if I remember correctly If so, there is a flower field of Gracidia under the valley in the northwest."
When the young man heard this, he thanked him very solemnly.
As another gust of wind blew, the giant Pokémon and the boy sped towards the northwest.
Several people were left looking at each other.
The little girl held in Cai Zi's arms looked at the retreating figure and asked curiously: "Mom, Gera... what kind of flower is a flower? Why haven't I heard you say it?"
"The Gracidia flower is a flower of gratitude that is said to bloom on glaciers and has a special meaning."
"Is it so powerful?"
The little girl's eyes sparkled with inexplicable brilliance.
"Then the big brother who was looking for this kind of flower just now must be very good, right? And there is such a big Pokémon, so handsome!"
"should be."
Recalling the aura emanating from that Pokémon just now, Caiko nodded.
"Mom, can we follow and see what that big... that kind of flower looks like?"
Hearing this, Caizi couldn't help but smile and said: "But aren't you not interested in flowers? Why do you suddenly want to see flowers again? You actually want to see that big brother, right?"
The little girl blinked her big eyes and said, "Is it okay?"
"sure."
Caizi smiled and said: "But you must tell your mother the reason first. You will not suddenly have such an idea before."
Although she is a little clingy, sometimes naughty and stubborn, this is the first time that her daughter wants to follow a stranger to see her, which makes Cai Zi curious.
"Because...because when I saw that big brother just now, I felt very familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere before." The little girl said seriously.
"Familiar... is it on TV?"
"no no."
The little girl shook her head like a rattle and said seriously: "It's the kind of thing I've seen with my own eyes!"
Seeing her daughter's determined look, Cai Zi couldn't help but be a little confused.
Obviously this is the first time he has traveled far away, and his daughter basically stays with him whenever he goes out. The other person's "characteristics" are so obvious, how could she have seen him but not him.
Regarding this doubt, after a brief reflection, Caizi decided to follow up and take a look.
…
Northwest of Huayuan Town.
After crossing a low mountain, a plain in a valley appeared in front of us.
Green grass spreads all over the field of vision, and in the middle of the valley, from where a stone is forward, there are green plants that are almost knee-high, and look like sunflowers that have not yet bloomed.
"It should be here, right?"
MechanicalGreymon looked at the scenery below and asked uncertainly.
"The location you just asked about is right here, and there are no other valleys nearby."
Qingliu took out the illustrated book and carefully checked the appearance of the Graxitia flower before it bloomed. After comparing it, he confirmed: "That's right, it's right here."
"Huh... I finally found it."
Mechanical Greymon breathed a sigh of relief and landed on the grass.
After arriving in Huayuan Town this morning, one person and one dragon began to look for the "destination" mentioned by Cai Zhong. However, even the residents of Huayuan Town, many shook their heads and expressed ignorance about this kind of flower.
Fortunately, after flying around Huayuan Town, and even being intercepted by Miss Junsha in the town who suspected it was a terrorist attack due to her size, she finally found her.
"If we meet again, I need to give him a solemn thank you."
While thinking about it, Aoyagi took out two Poké Balls.
Two red lights flashed, and the Cactus Beast landed in front of Qingliu, while the Blue-Eyed Double Explosion Dragon flapped its wings and stayed in the air, looking at him with a slightly dissatisfied look.
"Are you still angry?"
Because when I left before, I stopped it, which was already in a bad mood, and violently beat up a large-billed bird that actively provoked it, and put it into the Poké Ball, which made the Blue-Eyed Double Explosion Dragon a little unhappy.
But if he hadn't intervened at that time, the big-billed bird would probably have hiccupped. Even if he had intervened, he would probably have to lie down for ten days and a half.
"Nothing happens for now. The air and environment here are very good. Come out and relax. In addition, I will prepare your favorite dragon energy cube."
Aoyagi took out a full sack from his backpack, and the Blue-Eyed Double Explosion Dragon flew up and stretched out his claws to grab it.
After turning his head and glancing at Qingliu, he glanced at Mechanical Greymon and Cactusmon, and then he flapped his wings fiercely and flew towards the opposite mountain. Finally, he lay down on it, opened the bag and started to enjoy it.
"MechanicalGreymon, you should also take a rest. You haven't had a good time to relax recently."
Mechanical Greymon nodded, walked to the side step by step and sat down, looking into the distance with his big blue eyes, gradually falling into a trance.
But there seemed to be a hint of sadness in the depths of his eyes that were not easy to detect.
Qingliu silently watched this scene without saying anything, and looked at the cactus beast standing next to him.
"Although it hasn't bloomed yet, this is the flower field where Gracidia flowers are. How do you feel?"
The cactus beast lowered its head, stepped on the ground, and dug its roots into the ground. After feeling it for a moment, it suddenly became extremely excited. Even the sound that usually maintained a stable decibel became louder at this moment.
"It's very comfortable. I've never seen such comfortable soil, and there seems to be an unusually warm but refreshing coolness in it. I feel like I can perform at my usual level here."
"That's good."
Although I don't know what Cactusmon means by being warm and refreshing, judging from its reaction, this place is just as Caizhong described, a place that can break bottlenecks and improve Cactusmon's strength.
"Then let's get started."
"yes."
The cactus beast happily took a few big steps forward, crossed the dividing line-like stone, and stood in the flower field.
The next second.
Several huge roots suddenly grew on the cactus beast's legs, piercing the ground and piercing deeply.
Then, the soil on the ground began to tremble slightly like an earth dragon turning over. The roots continued to grow and advance, rapidly spreading and expanding in all directions. In a few breaths, it had reached the previous fifty meters.
"It's so fast, at least twice as fast as before."
Although he was prepared, Qingliu was still a little surprised to see such a remarkable effect.
The key point is... Cactusmon still looks relaxed and effortless, which makes Qingliu a little expectant - here, what will be the limit that Cactusmon can reach.
Under Qingliu's gaze, the range quickly increased from fifty meters to eighty meters, and then to the previous limit distance of one hundred meters.
Qingliu knew that now was the critical point, and his expression became serious, and he quickly said: "Just use all your strength to expand to the limit, Cactus Beast, photosynthesis."
The cactus beast opened its arms, and the sunlight from all directions gradually gathered, turning into pure energy and integrating into its body.
"Use... Boom Bomb!"
The Zhuo Bomb is a grass-type move with a power of 90. It grows huge vines from its body and spreads seeds to attack. It can absorb the opponent's physical strength every round. Simply put, it is an upgraded version of "Parasite Seed".
There is no opponent at the moment, and Qingliu doesn't expect to be able to absorb anyone's physical strength. What he values is the ability to make the vines grow bigger when this move is activated.
At this moment, the cactus beast is rooted in the soil that can support Graxitia flowers. With the help of photosynthesis, the momentum of the whole body is getting stronger and stronger. Green grass energy surges throughout the body, and finally merges into the roots on its feet. middle.
And this is not the end.
Aoyagi and Cactusmon have one last move.
"Use... Crazy Plant!"
Crazy Plant, learned from Ms. Kikuno, has a power of 150. It is one of the two most powerful grass-type moves. It can mobilize all the grass-type energy and turn it into a huge mimic plant to attack.
Click, click, click!
In an instant, the already thick roots surged to several times their previous size. After the huge roots squeezed the ground where they landed, they squirmed crazily and ran towards the surroundings.
The next moment, whether under the soil or on top of the soil, it seemed as if there were thousands of troops galloping madly, and the ground shook more and more violently.
Even Qingliu had to squat half down to stabilize his body and prevent him from falling.
But he didn't have extra time to focus on balance. What he was more concerned about at the moment... was the cactus beast.
As he raised his head, he couldn't help but widen his eyes at the scene that appeared in front of him.
In just a moment, the flower field in the valley in front of me had completely changed its appearance. Big trees one to twenty meters high had grown out, and under the trees, extremely thick vines were entangled at their roots.
This huge scene has a sense of sight like a primitive jungle.
The cactus beast is standing in the center of this "primitive jungle".
Seeing this, Qingliu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
He knew it was a success!
Although I don't know how big the specific range is, the area in front of me is definitely far beyond the previous limit of 100 meters.
Even... twice as much!
So, how much energy can such a wide coverage area bring to the cactus beast?
With strong curiosity, Qingliu gave an order, and the cactus beast let out a huge roar.
The primitive jungle seems to have entered late autumn and winter directly from midsummer. The flowers, plants and trees have dried up, the branches and leaves have turned yellow and withered, and they have become rapidly dilapidated.
In the end, all the plants turned into energy groups that were so strong that they emitted bursts of intense white light, and were sent back to the cactus beast's body along the huge rhizome that still existed.
Buzz!
With a buzzing sound, powerful vital energy exploded in an instant. The aura on the cactus beast's body rose steadily, and a terrifying aura that far exceeded its own strength erupted uncontrollably.
Until the end... the giant swamp monster that was already infinitely close to Kikuno.
