Chapter 139 Why are you so skilled at this?

night.

The Sunshine Dojo became much livelier with the arrival of guests.

Garchomp and Kommo-o, the absolute mainstays of this Master Tournament, are diligently studying their TMs.

"Kahoo?"

Hey little sister, what's wrong with you?

Kommo-o'-the-Tail only yawned slightly before Garchomp's death stare jolted it awake, and its gaze refocused on Milotic dancing enthusiastically on the screen.

Riolu didn't go on a trip for a long time, but stayed at the training ground, where Cyndaquil's Lucario tested its progress during this period.

Even through a thick wall, you could hear the crisp clanging sounds coming from their side from time to time.

Milton continued to maintain his passive, unambitious attitude, diligently fulfilling his duty of guarding the gym's gate.

Of course, if someone were to actually try to come in, it probably wouldn't react at all...

Everyone has their own things to do, that's great.

After scanning the dojo once, Qingyu originally planned to go to the movies with Eevee.

When he returned to the living room, he found that Cynthia was already sitting on one side of the sofa, with two Eevee dogs, one blue and one brown, lying symmetrically on either side of her.

Seeing Qingyu approaching, Zhulan quickly made way for her and smiled:

"Ibrahimovic has pretty good taste. He's been watching movies starring Karenina lately, which have been very successful at the Unified and Carlos box offices."

Qingyu paused for a moment, then looked up at the television screen.

The woman in front of the camera is the new champion of the Kalos region, the Kalos Little Beauty Queen, and a popular Hollywood actress from Unova Pokémon.

Karuni!
From the moment Qingyu first saw her at XY, she felt that this champion must have taken inspiration from many world-famous movie stars, such as Audrey Hepburn.

So when he saw this popular film called "Miare Holiday," he surprisingly had no desire to criticize it...

After all, it has a real-life counterpart, so it makes sense.

Sitting on the sofa, Qingyu's gaze quickly shifted to Eevee, who was resting its head on Zhulan's lap, looking quite content.

Damn it, your trainer is right in front of you!

Ibu, engrossed in watching the film, was completely unaware of Qingyu's somewhat murderous gaze, which instead drew a soft laugh from Zhulan.

"This child is still as affectionate as ever."

Zhu Lan spoke slowly, but to Qing Yu, it sounded somewhat provocative.

This is showing off, isn't it? It must be showing off!
Why are you so skilled!

Qingyu immediately reached out and pulled Eevee back into her arms.

Although Eevee grunted in dissatisfaction at his actions, it quickly quieted down and continued watching Gardevoir, the main character on TV.

I've never seen Gardevoir, the Pokémon Eevee, before.

But when Ibrahimovic first saw it on TV, he was absolutely blown away.

There are such beautiful and elegant Pokémon in this world!
I wish I could be this pretty...

Zhu Lan simply smiled at Qing Yu's tantrum and didn't take it to heart.

After gazing at the Eevee in Qingyu's arms for a while, a question suddenly arose in her mind, so she spoke:

"Speaking of which, I feel like Eevee should have evolved a long time ago. Is it because it hasn't decided what form it wants to evolve into, so it's been staying in its current state?"

As a "top student" who has been dealing with Pokémon in the research institute since childhood, Cynthia is certain that her judgment is accurate.

This Eevee was hatched by Qingyu in God and Town and has been with him since it was a cub, so there shouldn't be any problem with their intimacy level.

As for strength...

This is the least important factor for Eevee's unique evolutionary path.

Therefore, there is only one explanation.

"Ok?"

Hearing what Zhulan said, Qingyu scratched his head and subconsciously looked at Eevee in his arms.

Is Eevee about to evolve?

I do not know how?
It seems to have never shown any signs of evolving...

After noticing Qingyu's reaction, Zhulan was basically certain of her thoughts. Eevee is inherently a very sensitive and perceptive Pokémon, often keenly sensing its trainer's thoughts.

Even evolution is subtly influenced by the trainer.

It's probably because Qingyu has always let Eevee roam free that Eevee feels it's best to maintain the status quo, which is why it hasn't evolved yet.

They're such gentle yet awkward idiots.

If I hadn't reminded her, I don't know when Qingyu would have realized this.

"Perhaps you could try to discuss the future direction with Ibrahimovic."

After giving a faint smile, Cynthia picked up Glaceon, who was lying next to her and seemed very affectionate.

"Just like this child, because it loved snow when it was little, our goal from the beginning was to evolve into Glaceon."

"Buy~"

Even the aloof Eevee will unconsciously raise its voice when it's near its trainer.

After being reminded by Zhulan, Qingyu gazed at Eevee in her arms and fell into deep thought.

From the beginning, his idea was to let Eevee decide what form it should evolve into, and he would gladly accept it even if it evolved into the One King.

But now it seems that I have indeed overlooked a very important factor.

Trainers and Pokémon should always be one and the same.

Assisting one's Pokémon in evolving is a trainer's duty, so the previous idea seems somewhat irresponsible.

After figuring this out, Qingyu sighed.

As expected, there is still a lot of room for improvement on my path as a trainer.

Thinking of this, Qingyu gently picked up Eevee, stroked its head amidst its confused gaze, and then asked in a gentle tone:
"Eevee, do you really like Gardevoir?"

Qingyu knows that Eevee has recently watched a lot of movies starring Karune and Gardevoir.

"Buyi!"

Ibrahimovic nodded.

"Then... let's aim to evolve into Sylveon and try our best to catch up with that Gardevoir, okay?"

Qingyu smiled and spoke again.

"Buyi!"

Ibrahimovic nodded emphatically, his expression more serious than ever before.

If it's really as the trainer says, and I can emulate that Gardevoir...

It will try its best!

At this point, Qingyu and Yibu finally determined their future direction.

Gardevoir is certainly beautiful, but what if it could evolve into Sylveon...?

At least when it comes to cuteness, it definitely won't lose to Wifemon!
Sylveon evolves by having sufficient friendship or closeness with Sylveon, and also by learning at least one Fairy-type move.

Ibu knows how to be affectionate, so the conditions should be met.

Just as Qingyu was pondering, Eevee's body suddenly emitted a few rays of white light.

It is a sign of evolution.

This gave him quite a fright.

Although the evolutionary direction has been determined correctly, what if Eevee evolves now...?

Wouldn't the Eevee Z I got myself be useless?
Use it a few more times!

Fortunately, the evolutionary glow only appeared for a short while and quickly disappeared.

As Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief, Zhulan couldn't help but smile.

Sure enough.

Unlike its own Glaceon, Sylveon's evolution requires no external aids, only the bond between the two.

and so……

Given how close Eevee is to Blue Feather, it should be able to evolve at any time now, right?
