Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 667 Do you have any Pokémon that are even slightly more reasonable? (Seeking monthly votes!)

Carlos region, City of Wings.

This is a small city located in the northwest of the Carlos region, yet it is also known as a leisure and vacation resort.

With the sea, mountains, and forests all present, coupled with a rich natural cultural atmosphere, this small town exudes a tranquil and comfortable feeling.

The grass grows and the orioles fly.

On the vast grasslands of Biyi City, a gentle breeze swept by, causing the green waves to surge. Shuttlecocks fluttered in the wind, eventually colliding with the cotton balls in mid-air.

"What brings you to Biyi City?"

The short man, dressed in a dark green work uniform with a large pair of scissors at his waist, looked cheerfully at the "big customer" in front of him.

As he spoke, he began pruning the excess branches of the decaying wood spirit beside him.

This is none other than the Gym Leader of Wing City in the Kalos region, known as "the old tree that is still blooming now," Mr. Fu!

The person resting on the grass in front of him was naturally Jing He, and Daye, who had come all the way with him.

"I recently caught a Grass-type Pokémon." Jing He smiled as she tossed out a Poké Ball and summoned Snivy.

"Shinni!"

As soon as the vine snake appeared, it crossed its arms, glanced sideways at the smiling Jing He, and then...
It climbed onto Jinghe's head.

Upon seeing the Snivy, Grandpa Fu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but praise it:
"What an excellent Snivy they've trained!"

Before Jinghe could speak, Tengteng Snake wrinkled its nose and barked at Master Fu.

"Sss~!"

Even if you praise me, I won't be happy!
Then it jumped down on its own and ran to the side to photosynthesize, but judging from the way its body swayed slightly with the grass, it was obviously in a good mood.

"Photosynthesis is also quite good." Grandpa Fu's smile remained unchanged.

For Grass-type Pokémon, mastering photosynthesis is crucial.

"Master Fu, please go ahead with your work. I'll come to you for advice when I'm done." Jing He said, as he swept his hand across his waist and summoned the little ones.

"哓GA!"

Gengar emerged from Jinghe's shadow and saw the group of Sunflowers not far away. It couldn't help but drool at the corner of its mouth.

Slurp—

Meanwhile, the sunflower monsters not far away, who were basking in the sun contentedly, suddenly felt a chill run through their bodies, a cold air rising from their feet to their heads.

who? !

Which treacherous subject wants to harm me?
"Hulu——"

Coach Xiong took a deep breath, his expression becoming somewhat intoxicated.

Ah—great nature, this is the scent of a gift—

"Gucha!"

Suddenly, Azure Flame Blade Demon raised the blade in his hand, pointing it at two giant flower and a giant flower that were arguing over a tree fruit not far away.

Hey! Let go of that tree fruit, let me have it!

Swah——

Azure Flame Blade Demon moved with incredible speed, its form transforming into a streak of dark blue flame, flashing past between the Giant Flower and the Queen of the Hill.

click!
The plump, juicy pomelo was immediately split in two, falling into the hands of the Echinocactus and the Queen of the Night.

The two Pokémon stared blankly at the berries in their hands, and after a brief moment of surprise, they became delighted.

This is a very fair way to divide it!

However, before they could enjoy the fruit, they heard...
Clang!
With his back to them, the Azure Flame Blade Demon slowly placed the blade at his waist, tilted his head back at a 45-degree angle, and sheathed the blade!

呲——

A path formed by eerie blue flames slowly began to appear on the ground.

See this scene.

The Queen of the Night Flower and the Eel Flower swallowed almost simultaneously, a drop of cold sweat slowly trickling down their foreheads.

And then.
The Queen of the Night and the Giant Eel Flower, with perfect understanding, split their respective fruits in half again, handing one half to the Azure Flame Blade Demon with a sheepish grin, "thanking" it for its "assistance".

Azure Flame Blade Demon declined briefly, then accepted half of the tree fruit, and couldn't help but close his eyes and take a deep breath.

"Kucha."

It feels so familiar and prestigious!
Of course, just as there are Pokémon from Fu Ye's farm that "mess around" with the farm's Pokémon, there are also Pokémon from Fu Ye's farm that have their eyes on Old Jing's family, for example...
A Bricaron that looks quite "prestigious" on the farm.

After hesitating for a long time not far away, he seemed to have mustered up his courage and walked up to Bangiras, who was sitting on the ground, engrossed in his meal.

fidgeting
“Bri.”

Bricaron blushed and handed a delicate pink flower to Bangiras, looking like she was trying to curry favor.

This action.

It not only attracted the Pokémon that originally lived on the farm, but also made the little guys in the old Jing family turn their heads.

A Pokémon has actually taken a liking to Tyranitar?
Jinghe was also quite surprised.

On one hand, it was unexpected that its Tyranitar had only evolved not long ago and seemed somewhat attractive.

On the other hand, it was unexpected that this was a female Bricaron.

After all, Bricaron, the final evolution of the Grass-type starter Pokémon in the Kalos region, has a male-to-female ratio of 7:1, making it a typical "bachelor" Pokémon.

Female Bricaron are relatively rare.

"Banji?"

Bangiras, who was stuffing a meteorite into his mouth, sniffed, as if he had smelled the fragrance of flowers, and looked up blankly at Bricaron.

Bricaron's expression immediately became even more shy, and the blush on her face became more pronounced, but she showed no intention of putting down the flowers she was holding.

Upon seeing this, Bangilas suddenly understood.

It scratched the back of its head and grinned.

"Banji~"

Thanks!
Then he took a big "whoosh".

He ate the flower from Bricaron's hand, along with part of its stem.

Tyranitar thought to himself: "The Pokémon on this farm are actually quite nice. They know I'm getting a bit bored eating just meteorites, so they brought me some side dishes. Hmm, they taste pretty good!"
Bricaron stared at the bare root in his hand, completely frozen in place.

They ate it?!
Many Pokémon who witnessed the whole process stumbled and almost fell over.

Jinghe couldn't help but rub his forehead.

This time he didn't blame Yukshi.

After all, Uxie is the "god of wisdom," and Uxie's Claw, while causing Tyranitar's wisdom points to "give way," should clearly be blamed on Memrid, the god of emotions.

However, judging from this situation, it seems that Bangilas might not be able to find a partner in the future.
"Come, have some tea. It's all grown by myself."

After pruning the rotten branches of the tree, Grandpa Fu sat down on the edge of the field with Jinghe.

"Genga?"

Tea?
Upon hearing that there was tea, Gengar, who had been searching for something in the grass, suddenly raised its head and floated over immediately.

"Gengga, genga?"

It pointed to its mouth with both fingers.

Could I have a drink too?
"Do you want it too?"

So, Fu Ye happily poured a cup for Gengar as well.

Then I saw it.

Fu Ye, Jing He, and Gengar, two people and one Pokémon, sat on the edge of a field, enjoying the sunshine, the warm breeze, the undulating grassland, and the fragrant green tea.
The years are quiet.

"How is it?" Master Fu suddenly asked.

"pretty good."

Jinghe likes to drink coffee, but he doesn't completely dislike tea. If it's a particularly mellow and sweet tea, he's quite willing to try it.

"Genga."

However, Gengar smacked its lips and shook its head as if to say "no, no."

Seeing this, Master Fu wasn't angry; he simply smiled and asked:

"dislike?"

"Genga?"

Gengar waved its hand, and then
He took out his special "tea canister" from his mouth, scooped out some tea leaves, poured in boiling water, and handed it to Grandpa Fu.

"哓GA!"

Come on! Try mys! This is the real deal!

"Master Fu." Jing He's lips twitched, and she was about to remind him when Master Fu, looking quite expectant, blew on the air and took a sip.

next second.

Jing He could clearly see that Grandpa Fu's complexion had changed from its original healthy tone to a reddish hue.
"Ahem." Master Fu, his face flushed, quickly coughed twice. "Hmm, good tea."

This is just too much!
"Giggle! (▼O▼)"

Gengar stood with his hands on his hips and nodded in satisfaction.

This old man knows tea, that's good.

"Ahem, well, Jinghe, after watching for a while, do you have any thoughts?" Master Fu quickly changed the subject.

Jing He nodded thoughtfully.

"I learned something."

I did learn something.

For example.

Although Grass-type Pokémon are called Grass-type, they actually have some branches.

For example, some plants directly promote plant growth, such as the riding goat and the Queen of the Night flower.

There are also those that aid in ecological digestion to indirectly promote plant growth, such as the wood sprite, the giant food flower, and the stinky flower, which accelerate the conversion of decaying vegetation into nutrients in the soil.

There are also Grass-type Pokémon that can produce some fruits, such as Sunflower, Goat, Tropius, and so on.

These different types of Grass-type Pokémon have very different uses for the farm.

Grandpa Fu smiled, rubbing his white goatee on both sides of his chin, and nodded in satisfaction.

"I heard that you have a large collection of books, Master Fu?" Jinghe asked.

"Most of them are books about farm affairs, and some of my experiences and insights," Uncle Fu waved his hand dismissively.

However, this was extremely tempting for Jing He.

"Could I borrow some to take a look?"

"Of course," Master Fu replied with a smile.

After a brief pause, he added, "But before that, Jinghe, how about a match?"

"Battle?"

Jing He was taken aback.

Seeing that Master Fu's complexion was rosy and youthful, and he even seemed a little excited, Jing He couldn't help but look at Gengar with a questioning look in his eyes:
Did you put stimulants in your Vitality Root Tea?

Gengar shrugged.

Nothing.

It's just pure Vitality Root Tea, only made by grinding Vitality Root into powder. One sip refreshes the mind, two sips eliminate fatigue, and three sips grant immortality! Yay!
Jing He: "."

"Didn't you also want to ask some questions about Grass-type Pokémon, or Snivy?"

"In Pokémon training, or rather, Pokémon battles, and in terms of raw skill, this old man definitely can't compare to you," said Grandpa Fu.

"But in fact, if it's just Grass-type Pokémon, I think I have some insights."

That's true
Fuku's age is probably around the same as Professor Oak and Elite Four member Kiku.

Although his strength may not be particularly outstanding, he has served as the head of the Winged Dojo for decades and managed a large farm. It would be impossible to say that he has no strength.

Also.

Collecting other people's experiences in training Pokémon is definitely a good idea.

"Pokémon battles are always the best way to test everything."

As Master Fu stood up, a goat he was riding had already run to his side quite tacitly.

"Of course I can't refuse an invitation from an elder." Jing He also stood up and called out, "Wisteria Snake!"

"Shinni!"

Tengteng Snake immediately came to Jinghe's side, looked at Master Fu opposite him, and the robust goat riding beside Master Fu, and its small eyes lit up slightly.

This is a formidable opponent!
It's all about exchanging skills and sharing experiences, so there aren't any particularly strict rules; it's just a simple one-on-one session.

Da Ye acted as the temporary referee.

Mounted Goat VS Sniper.

"In that case, I, the old man, will go first," said Master Fu, and immediately began to give orders.

"Old friend, the grassy field!"

boom! !

Master Fu's goat mount raised its front legs high and then landed lightly.

hum-

A surge of emerald green energy instantly spread outwards from the mountain goat, turning the already lush green grassland into a shimmering emerald glow, with wisps of energy rising into the air.

[Grassy Terrain: Pokémon on the field receive a benefit from the terrain every so often, restoring their stamina and increasing the power of Grass-type moves.]

"Shinni!"

Snivy squinted, trying hard to memorize the scene of its goat performing on the grassy field.

It was another move I hadn't learned before, and it seemed quite useful. Even I could feel a subtle increase in my power.

of course.

The goat mount that uses this move will undoubtedly receive a greater boost.

Not only because the user of the Grassland is a riding goat, but also because the riding goat's characteristic is "grass fur".

[Grass Fur: Pokémon with this ability will receive a 50% boost to their Defense when on Grassy Terrain!]

This is not.

As the grasslands expanded, the already thick, leaf-like green fur on the mountain goat's back quickly grew back, significantly enhancing its defensive capabilities.

But for Jinghe and Tengtengshe, this is actually good news.

At least the goat mount's characteristic isn't "herbivorous," otherwise there would be no point in fighting it.

"Snivy, widen your eyes," Jing He commanded.

"Hisni! (#｀Van)"

The Sniper coiled its body slightly, like a snake waiting for its chance to strike, and stared at its mount, the goat, causing its increased physical defense to return to its original level.

At the same time, the eyes of the Snivy revealed a hint of coldness, as if it were being watched by a snake.

Master Fu smiled slightly.

"Ride a goat, slide on the grass!"

For an instant.

Despite being some distance from Snivy, the mountain goat suddenly leaped across the lush grass, charging towards Snivy at an incredible speed, as if surfing.

It moved so fast that it arrived in front of the Snivy in the blink of an eye.

[Grass Slide: When using this move on a grassy area, the move's priority increases by 1]

First strike!

Well known.

In Pokémon battles, the priority of moves is a hidden attribute that is quite unreasonable.

Although in the real Pokémon world, priority isn't exaggerated to the point of directly determining who goes first, it still largely determines some advantages and disadvantages.

Jinghe really liked having the Great Blacksmith use the high-priority move of a surprise attack with a high-five as his starting move.

however.

When the goat, looking confident, charged at Snivy at incredible speed, it was met with Snivy's suddenly raised, disdainful, proud, and piercing gaze.

"Shinni!"

Two vine whips flew out from the Sniper's body, bracing against the ground and lifting its body up!
"Ok?"

Master Fu was taken aback.

How could you dodge such a preemptive strike so easily?

pat-

The vine snake landed lightly, its whip retracting. Despite being shorter than its mount, the goat, the little creature now gave the goat the feeling of looking up at a queen.
The Queen's majesty?
Does the Pokémon Snivy have this characteristic?
Both Master Fu and his goat were clearly taken aback.

Jinghe, on the other hand, is already quite familiar with and accepting of this situation.

So what if I'm a little proud and have a bit of queenly authority?
In the Ganges!

"Snivy, draft it!"

“Shinni! (｀ε)”

It's my turn to fight back!
The speed of the Snivy instantly increased to its maximum, and it continued to increase its speed by drafting.

Speed ​​is Snivy's advantage, so naturally it should maximize its advantage.

"Mounted Goat, Swift Leaf Blade!"

But as expected of the oldest gym leader in the Kalos region, Fu-ye quickly recovered after a brief moment of surprise and gave the most correct command.

rustling-

The mountain goat swayed slightly, and immediately, emerald green leaves, enveloped in fluorescence, floated from its back.

But these sharp leaves remained dormant, instead forming a barrier around his body.

This is the signature move of Master Fu and his goat.

In the original work, when Ash challenged Fuchsia, Froakie's move was easily countered by his mount, Goat.

But Jinghe is not Ash Ketchum, and Snivy is not Froakie.

"A rattan whip." Jing He squinted.

Swoosh—swoosh—

As the vine snake ran, it kept an eye on the barrier formed by the flying leaf blades, while also drawing its vine whip.

In its view, the goat's move coincided with its understanding of certain moves.

However, this is still a battle.

"Release it!"

Seeing that the Snivy was about to break through the "barrier" of the Leaf Blade with its vine whip, Fuye launched a counterattack, seizing the opportunity when the Snivy was launching an attack!
call--

In an instant.

What was originally a protective "barrier" instantly transformed into a tornado of emerald green leaves, sweeping towards the Snivy.

Clearly, Master Fu and his goat's signature move is both offensive and defensive!

boom! !

The goat's flying leaf blade struck it before the vine whip of the vine snake could strike.

The little guy flew backwards.

"Master Fu is still very experienced," Jing He thought to herself, but she didn't mention that she was too worried about Tengteng Snake.

Because at the last moment before being struck by the Leaf Blade, the Snivy managed to retract part of its vine whip thanks to its extremely fast reaction speed, thus withstanding the maximum impact of the Leaf Blade "Tornado".

Besides
Both are Grass-type Pokémon.

The damage wasn't very high.

But
“Hisni!!(▼DRAN▼)”

The vine snake, which had been thrown backwards, immediately flipped over and rose again, its face revealing a fierce glint.

He was actually knocked away!

Since it started following Jinghe, it has been well-fed and cared for every day, and has trained diligently. It hasn't failed to grow at all, not to mention...
Then the vine snake raised its hand.

A small cluster of emerald green fluorescence appeared in its hand!

Upon closer inspection, one can be astonished to discover that it is actually a large number of leaves that have condensed into the shape of a small tornado.

He immediately swung his hand and threw it out—

It transformed into a surging tornado of leaves!

Leaf storm!

Ok?
This time.

Not to mention Master Fu, even Jing He was somewhat surprised.

Because in his Pokédex, Snivy clearly did not know the move Leaf Storm, but when he looked at it again, the words "Leaf Storm" were clearly listed in the "Moves Known" section.

Did you learn it at this time?
Do not!
Jinghe quickly noticed the difference.

It seems that Snivy's Leaf Storm move contains other techniques as well.
It's a flying leaf blade!

The mountain goat used its leaf-sharp blades to create a tornado, while the vine snake used its leaf-sharp blades to create a leaf storm.
For a while.

Jinghe looked somewhat bewildered.

Is this still the Snivy he remembers, the one that might have average talent but was quite hardworking and ambitious, and also a bit arrogant?
Leaf Storm + Leaf Blade: Is this what "mediocre talent" looks like?
more importantly.
Jinghe also noticed that behind the Snivy, two light green orbs of light were faintly emerging, with a shimmering green light flowing out and pouring into the Leaf Storm.
"This is."

Jing He felt a slight tremor in his heart, and his expression became even more bewildered.

Kyogre's Origin Wave?!
No, Root Pulse is a Water-type move, while Snivy is clearly a Grass-type move. So, it understood Root Pulse in its own way and then made some improvements to suit itself.

This learning ability is just as good as our little devil's, isn't it?

No wonder, no wonder the Snivy, despite photosynthesizing every day, doesn't seem to be consuming much food.
Good guy.

You're wearing Tyranitar's "Claw of Yggdrasil," aren't you?
boom! ! !
A massive storm of flying leaves swept out, engulfing the mountain goat mount, which was then also swept away and thrown into the air.

"Shinni!"

The sniper stood with its hands on its hips, its head slightly raised, looking down at its mount, the goat.

how?

"cough"

Master Fu raised his hand to stop his goat mount, glanced at the vine snake opposite him, and then at Jing He, whose face remained calm.

No wonder. No wonder everyone says that Teacher Jinghe likes to "suppress evolution" of Pokémon to maintain their baby form. Larvitar evolved into Tyranitar and faced Groudon head-on. This Snivy is probably no less impressive, right?
"Jinghe," Master Fu said slowly.

Do you have any Pokémon that are even slightly more reasonable?

With a snake like this, you still want to go on a pilgrimage?
Old man, I'd rather be asking you for guidance!

Jing He: "."

This time, you really can't blame me; I'm a "victim" too.
Da Ye, who was standing to the side, laughed heartily and said, "Uncle Fu, you'll get used to it. Teacher Jing He's Pokémon are like this."
