Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game.

The snow, which had been falling on and off for ten days, finally stopped, and the long-awaited sunshine once again streamed into the yard, but it didn't bring much warmth.

The old saying goes that it's not cold when it snows, but it's cold when the snow melts; that's probably what it means.

For Xia Chen's family, today is a very important day.

Because today is the time, as Miss Joy said, when Sticky Baby is most likely to hatch.

Xia Chen and Ming Yi had both experienced several incubation processes together, so they weren't too flustered.

However, since the target for hatching is an elf egg from thousands of years ago, we should still be cautious.

I stayed there from morning until afternoon, and then from afternoon until after dinner.

The restless, shaking egg finally made its first crisp sound.

Gardevoir, with its most acute mental senses, was the first to notice the anomaly and ran to the Pokémon egg. Xia Chen and Ming Yi then belatedly gathered around and saw the first crack that had appeared on the egg.

After achieving the breakthrough from zero to one, the incubation speed became much faster afterwards.

A crackling sound came from the eggshell, and visible cracks appeared one after another on the pale purple-patterned eggshell, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Immediately, the iconic white light that appears when a sprite hatches suddenly appears.

This means that after being dug out of the ruins and having been incubated for nearly a hundred days with great difficulty, the Sticky Baby has finally hatched!

Mingyi consciously stepped aside to ensure that the first person Gooboo saw after it came out was its future trainer.

However, her worries were obviously unnecessary. Sticky Baby, who had been in the egg for three months, spent all his time either drawing talents or listening to Xia Chen or the elves talking outside.

How could she possibly mistake Xia Chen, whom she had longed for for so long?

Having just hatched from her egg, she leaped from the table with an energy and speed completely unlike that of a newborn elf, and pounced on Xia Chen's face.

If Gardevoir hadn't sensed the affection in Goomy's emotions, she would have intercepted the "facehugger" in mid-air.

Thus, Xia Chen's first encounter with his sixth Pokémon began with a face hug.

…………

"Sticky Baby, come down quickly, I can't breathe!"

Xia Chen tugged at the unusually lively Nian Nian Bao, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Having your face smeared with a soft, slimy object covered in sticky liquid is not a pleasant experience.

In ancient times, there was a cruel torture method that involved covering the prisoner's face with a wet towel. However, the body of the sticky baby was even more airtight.

"Sticky~"

Sticky Baby responded shyly, then nimbly jumped back onto the table.

Its swift and elusive appearance makes it seem nothing like an elf that has just hatched from an egg.

Xia Chen was surprised, but not entirely unexpected.

Firstly, Gooo is actually a resurrected Pokémon egg that was about to hatch a thousand years ago, so its abnormality is also a kind of normality.

Secondly, Xia Chen had become accustomed to his Pokémon each possessing unique skills; the first five were all abnormal, and if the sixth were normal, that would be abnormal.

Xia Chen even speculated that Noodle Baby's "special skill" was to "cultivate" inside the egg, just like the protagonist of Gou Daowen's novels in his previous life, who was invincible from birth.

Now it seems that this is not the case.

But so be it if I guessed wrong, I don't care about that anymore anyway.

In comparison, Xia Chen was more concerned about Nian Nian Bao's excessively affectionate attitude towards him.

Although Ralts was hatched from the egg by its own hands, it took Ralts several days to build up its bond with it. But Gummy, on the other hand, had its bond maxed out as soon as it hatched.

It seems that my three months of "egg teaching" have been quite effective.

The arrival of the new companions was also welcomed by Senbu and the others.

Watching a dead egg buried deep in the ruins for thousands of years miraculously come to life and even hatch under their witness, they also had a feeling of "my family has an egg that has just been raised".

Xia Chen smiled slightly and joined his friends in welcoming this special little guy.

"Sorry for the wait, welcome to a thousand years in the future, Sticky Baby."

"From today onwards, we're family!"

"Sticky~"

Sticky Baby's jelly-like body bounced around as if she were dancing; clearly, she hadn't recovered from her excitement yet.

"By the way, Little Dragon, didn't you prepare a gift for us? Aren't you going to give it to Noodle Baby?"

Xia Chen wasn't sure if he was using the word "sister" correctly.

As for their actual age, the thousand-year-old Gooob is the grandmother of all Pokémon, but theoretically the little one has only just hatched from her egg, so her mentality and physical condition are indeed those of a younger sister.

"Messi~"

Overjoyed at escaping the lowest status in the family, Doronmesia spun around in a circle, then magically produced a steel and dragon attribute gem from behind her back and handed it to Gooo.

Gardevoir and Zoroark also took out the candies and berries they had specially saved for Goomy.

"Sticky~"

Sticky Baby accepted them without hesitation, high-fiving with its limp antennae and Doron Mesia's little claws to express its gratitude. Then, for some reason, the two dragon cubs suddenly started fighting.

After all, it was still a newborn elf. No matter how energetic it was, it got tired after playing wildly for a while.

Soon, the sticky, purple jelly-like baby fell into a deep sleep in Xia Chen's arms.

…………

At the very moment that Sticky Baby hatched, in the vast universe...

A meteorite, so small as to be almost invisible compared to Earth, streaked across the cold, desolate universe.

(The visitor from the Rift explicitly mentioned Earth.)

As if summoned by some unseen force, the meteorite seemed to have a mind of its own and suddenly deviated from its original trajectory.

The end of its newly redefined flight path is Earth.

Chapter 238 About the Legendary Spirit I Found in My Own Yard

The Spiritual Matter (7k)

"Welcome to today's Zhijiang Morning News. Today is January 21, 2024. Yesterday, many citizens in our city saw a fireball streak across the sky and land in the suburbs of Zhijiang City. The related video has also gone viral online."

"Our reporter interviewed astronomical experts on this matter. It is understood that this is a meteorite that suddenly visited the Earth. Because it was too small, it was not observed beforehand, and the public does not need to worry too much."

"Currently, no meteorite remains have been found. Experts say the meteorite may have burned up completely in the air. Meteorites are generally divided into stony meteorites and iron meteorites, which may have burned up during their high-speed flight."

January 21st, sunny.

As usual, Xianbu got up early to watch the morning news. Looking at this somewhat unusual news, she had a thoughtful expression on her face.

Meteorite falls are no big deal; hundreds of meteorites fall to Earth every year, as long as there aren't any strange sprites on them.

In my past life memories, two or three years later, a meteorite carrying two extraterrestrial visitors will fall to Earth and be used by Team Rocket, an evil organization based in Kanto and Johto.

In the end, even Rayquaza had to take action.

However, this meteorite shouldn't be the one that caused so much trouble in my memory; the timing doesn't match up.

But a year ago, around this time, I misjudged the Xerneas Horn that Eevee found. Could it be that I found another item belonging to a legendary elf this time?

There's a story called "dotting the eyes of a dragon," which tells of a very skilled painter who painted a giant green caterpillar—no, wait, Rayquaza—on the Sky Pillar, but didn't paint its eyes.

But if you throw this thing away, you're only keeping this time bomb away from yourself; its danger to humanity still exists.

At present, the existence of a second Deoxys is just speculation, but the possibility of this speculation is definitely not small.

Since it's difficult to build up humanoid versions of Xia Chen and Gardevoir, we started building up Xiaolong and Goomy from Milotic.

In the past life information, the two Deoxys had different personalities, one was more irritable and the other was more gentle, but they had a very good relationship.

For example, Mingyi's form in the Padiya region is Ubo.

Suddenly, a glint of intelligence flashed in the eyes of both elves—it was their eyes!

Without eyes, there is naturally no charm.

Not to mention the possibility of a special episode where Team Rocket finds them.

Deoxys's Crystal Core!

Upon closer inspection of the crystal, Xia Chen discovered that its color, shape, and the subtle supernatural aura it exuded all matched the core of Deoxys.

This was not something Xia Chen observed, but rather Miss Joey's professional assessment.

Little Dragon looked at his masterpiece and nodded in satisfaction.

Although the Deoxys with a green core in the movie is friendly to humans, he can't guarantee that this one is the same. What if it's that grumpy guy?

By the way, if there are two Deoxys, where is the other one?

Xia Chen suddenly woke up and turned to ask, "Sticky Baby, did you find another one? Uh, I mean, the same stone that might be emitting a purple light."

Little Duolong was extremely anxious watching from the side; he only wished he could speak human language.

It's not a difficult task, but there are many aspects to consider, such as food, drinking water, and bath water.

Golden orange!

Dorgon Messia was shocked.

…………

At that point, it won't just be a single city; a massive meteorite will be hurtling towards the Hoenn region!

If Rayquaza hadn't intervened in time, who could have withstood this thing?

I'm torn between two options.

Xia Chen suddenly felt that this crystal was a hot potato.

Little Dragon took it from Sticky Treasure's antennae and examined it curiously.

Only someone with a serious mental illness would release something that is practically the embodiment of a legendary spirit.
