Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

The bell rang, the first exam ended, and after a short rest, Fang Yan was taken to the second exam.

This test requires you to observe the state of the Pokémon you are assigned and analyze its situation and illness.

There are many herbs and fruits around, as well as preparation tools, which are provided for candidates to prepare appropriate medicines according to the situation.

Fangyan was assigned a curly-eared rabbit that looked like a standing rabbit. It was all brown, with cream-colored feet and fluffy fur, and looked very cute.

Its two long ears curled up, and it let out a weak cry when it saw Fang Yan approaching.

Fang Yan looked at the curly-eared creature in front of her. It was so cute. She reached out and gently touched it. It was so fluffy.

【Curly Ear】

【Attribute: Normal】

[Characteristic: Escape]

[Mastered moves: slap, round eyes, flash of lightning, double kick, and acting cute.]

Mood: Cloudy

[Status: Fearful, worried]

[Friendliness: -10 (In a state of fear)]

[Introduction: I'm so scared, will he yell at me like the last person?]

Seeing the description on the status bar, Fang Yan glanced at Juanjuan'er again and found it trembling in Fang Yan's hand.

He knew that Curly Ear was in a bad mood and needed care, so Fang Yan gently comforted it, stroking its ears until one ear opened. Only then did he put Curly Ear down and use the herbs and fruits nearby to prepare a calming juice for it.

Seeing that it had drunk it, he picked up Curly Ear and walked toward the examiner.

The examiner was an elderly man in his sixties. He came up to the examiner carrying a curly-eared caterpillar and shared his discovery:

"The Curly-Ear expresses its emotions through its ears. Usually, one ear is curled up and the other is spread out to protect itself. When both ears are curled up, it means it is afraid. I guess this is because the person who came to take the test before scolded it, so it needs care and comfort..."

He spoke a lot in dialect, and the old man listened and nodded.

Finally, Fang Yan added, "I don't think it's suitable for it to serve as an assessor."

The old man looked at Fang Yan, reached out and took the curly-eared caterpillar from its hand, and then said, "You're right, we were indeed negligent in this matter."

"What breeders need most is the ability to observe changes in a Pokémon's mood, and you did very well in that aspect. You also did very well in solving this problem. Your name is Fangyan, right? You got a perfect score on the first test. I declare that you have passed this test. Someone will take you to apply for your breeder certificate shortly."

The old man patted Fang Yan on the shoulder and continued, "We'll get this curly-eared cat off the test, don't worry."

He smiled and said thank you in dialect.

"You have extensive knowledge and a great talent for breeding. Would you like to try for a higher level of breeder assessment and become a more advanced breeder?"

After listening to the old man's words, Fang Yan thought for a while. He came to participate in the assessment only so that he could get a discount on the purchase of Pokémon eggs at his breeding house and so as to receive the rewards from the system. Therefore, the novice breeder level was enough.

"I don't have that plan yet. The beginner level should be enough. I also run a breeding shop."

Fang Yan declined the old man's suggestion.

"That's a pity. How about this, think it over and come find me again. I'll give you my contact information."

The elderly man then gave Fang Yan his contact information, and then had other staff members take Fang Yan to the Breeders Association Center to obtain a breeder certificate.

While waiting for his documents to come out, Fang Yan stared blankly at the words in front of him.

[Achievement "Breeder": A breeder is someone who raises Pokémon. After many hardships, you have finally become a qualified breeder and fulfilled your great-aunt's wish.]

Me?! After going through countless hardships?! How come I didn't know?!

[Gift from Great-Aunt 1: Nursery Recipe]

[Received Grandma's Gift 2: Nursery Item List]

[Nursery Recipe: My great-aunt loved food all her life. This is a recipe book she researched throughout her life, containing all sorts of dishes. Obtaining this recipe will bring her blessing, making your dishes more likely to be loved by Pokémon. There's a chance it will trigger a "Food Blast," keeping Pokémon happy and cheerful, and perhaps even having unexpected effects.]

[Nursery Item List: Grandma loved making little gadgets for Pokémon to play with. This is her lifelong item list, containing many small items. Obtaining this list will bring Grandma's blessing; some of the items you make will quickly become popular with Pokémon, generally triggering an emotional breakthrough. Each item you make will have some small, unexpected effects.]

Looking at the truly generous reward before him, Fang Yan remained speechless for a long time.

After a long silence, he whispered, "Thank you, Aunt...Grandma."

At this moment, the staff member brought over his identification, and looking at Fang Yan's gentle smile, asked, "Wh...what's wrong?"

"It's alright," Fang Yan said.

"Oh, here is your breeder's certificate."

The staff handed him his identification, which contained his information and a line of prominent text:

Junior breeder.

"Thank you."

After thanking the staff in dialect and saying goodbye, Fang Yan went to find Ms. Officer Jenny.

"How is it?"

Miss Officer Jenny saw Fang Yan from afar and asked him a question.

Fang Yan didn't speak, but simply waved the document in his hand and handed it to Miss Officer Jenny.

"Sure, you passed on the first try."

Miss Officer Jenny returned the documents to him and lightly punched his shoulder.

Afterwards, when they passed the Pokémon Center, Fang Yan also told Nurse Joy about it, and Nurse Joy agreed.

He even took a photo and sent it to Xia Lan when he had a spare moment.

Xia Lan: I knew I hadn't misjudged you, you good lad.

After going to the market with Officer Jenny and buying a bunch of ingredients, Officer Jenny returned Dialect to the breeding house.

Just as Miss Officer Jenny was about to leave, she suddenly spoke:

"Oh right, I almost forgot. The Sinnoh League said that if you pass the breeder's exam, they'll give you a 50% discount if you buy Pokémon eggs from them. Plus, since you're the only breeder in Twinleaf Town and Sandgum Town, they'll give you an additional 30% discount."

Fang Yan did the math and exclaimed in surprise, "Then that leaves only 20% of the price?"

"To be precise, it's a fold."

Miss Officer Jenny smiled and said, "I've managed to negotiate a little more for you on top of that."

A 90% discount? What's the difference between that and giving it away for free?

"Thank you, Sister Xiaoye."

He sincerely thanked the women he had only recently met, saying they had really helped him a lot.

"By the way, if Xiaoshui and I find any Pokémon eggs in the wild, we'll bring them to you. Also, if anyone in Twinleaf Town needs to sell Pokémon or consign Pokémon eggs, I'll recommend them to you. I'll also contact my cousins ​​in Sandsand Town."

"Also, since your breeding center is just starting out, I only applied for thirty Pokémon eggs for you. You won't blame me, will you?"

"Miss Officer Jenny said jokingly."

Fang Yan listened quietly, and when he heard this, he laughed too.

"How could I possibly blame Sister Ye?"

"That's good, alright, go back now, I need to get back to work too."

After saying that, Miss Officer Jenny rode away on her police motorcycle.

Watching Officer Jenny's disappearing figure, Fang Yan turned around and went back to the breeding house.

At that moment, Gengar rubbed its eyes and came down from the ceiling.
