Elf: Seriously? You only get a cheat code when you're about to die?

Chapter 200 Each with Their Own Reasons

"Miss Joy, help!" Angie shouted anxiously after entering the Pokémon Center.

Miss Joy was writing at her desk when Anger suddenly shouted, which startled her.

However, upon seeing the unconscious Digger Rabbit and the listless Mischievous Panda, her expression immediately turned serious.

Chansey immediately pushed a small cart over.

"Miss Joey, please take a look at my naughty panda and digger rabbit! They have very high body temperatures, and digger rabbit has even fainted."

As Ange placed the two Pokémon on the stroller, he told Nurse Joy about their situation.

The mischievous panda was visiting the Elf Center for the first time, so it was a little scared sitting in the stroller. It opened its arms, wanting Angie to carry it back.

Anjie quickly hugged it and patted its back, saying, "Good boy, let's go see the doctor first. You won't feel so bad after the doctor's visit."

"Ya cha~~" The mischievous panda nodded gently, seemingly calmed down.

Miss Joy said, "I already know the situation. Your Highness, please wait outside. I'll check on Naughty Panda and Digger Rabbit first."

Anjie nodded. "Thank you for your trouble, Miss Joey."

Watching Miss Joy and Chansey take Mischievous Panda and Digger Rabbit to the clinic, Angie found a place to sit down and waited anxiously.

At this moment, Mk Eagle came to his side and gently nuzzled Angel's cheek with its head.

"Muck~ Muck~" Don't worry, with Miss Joey here, everything will be fine.

Having experienced Gardevoir's difficult childbirth, Staraptor has great confidence in Nurse Joy.

"Yes, I know," Ange said, patting Mk Eagle's neck.

About an hour later, Miss Joy came out of the examination room with Chansey. Angie quickly went up to her and asked:

"Miss Joey, how are things? Are my Digger Rabbit and Mischievous Panda alright?"

Miss Joy smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, Digger Rabbit and Mischievous Panda are both fine."

Upon hearing this, Anja and Muke Eagle both breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he asked in confusion, "Why did my naughty panda and digging rabbit suddenly get fevers? And such high fevers at that?"

Miss Joy explained, "Both of these Pokémon have reached the stage where they can evolve, but for some reason, they have been holding back, which has caused a stress response in their bodies."

Evolution is Pokémon's nature. Except for Pokémon that require specific evolution conditions, if other Pokémon reach the evolution stage but refuse to evolve, their bodies will naturally experience various disorders, and fever and fainting are common phenomena.

After Miss Joey's explanation, Angie suddenly understood.

"Your Highness can ask them why they are unwilling to evolve, and then address the problem accordingly. If they really are unwilling to evolve, then make them wear the Eternal Stone."

Everstones can suppress evolutionary factors within Pokémon, so Pokémon don't have to worry about developing health problems.

Miss Joey gave Angie some advice.

In this situation, Nurse Joy will not urge the Pokémon to evolve; whether or not to evolve is the Pokémon's own choice.

Evolution isn't everything in Pokémon, especially since Pancham and Bunny Dwarf aren't battle Pokémon.

Furthermore, not all Pokémon used in battles necessarily pursue their final evolved form. For example, Chansey and Porygon2 can achieve brilliant results by equipping Evolution Stones without evolving.

"I understand." Anjie nodded.

Miss Joy added, "After taking the medicine, the two Pokémon's condition has stabilized and they can leave at any time."

However, please evolve them or equip them with an Everstone as soon as possible to avoid a recurrence of stress, as this reaction only gets stronger with each iteration and is very bad for the Pokémon.

"I understand, thank you, Miss Joey," Angie said again.

Miss Joey smiled and left with Chansey.

As soon as Miss Joy left, Ange took Muck Eagle into the examination room.

When Digger Rabbit and Mischievous Panda saw Anjie enter the room, they jumped off the bed excitedly and rushed into Anjie's arms one after the other.

After catching them, Anjie pretended to be angry and said, "You're all energetic now? Why were you all so listless before?"

The two Pokémon knew that Angel wasn't really angry, but Angel's words still made them shyly bury their heads in Angel's arms.

Anjie continued, "If you two don't want to evolve, you can just tell me. I'll buy you Everstones. Why do you have to secretly endure it and even make yourselves sick!"

Am I really that untrustworthy?

The two Pokémon lowered their heads in even greater shame.

"Do you know you were wrong?" Anjie asked with a stern face.

"Yay!" Got it.

"Hobi~" Got it.

The two Pokémon nodded quickly, replying in voices softer than a mosquito's buzz.

"That's good." Anjie's expression softened. "Now can you tell me why you don't want to evolve? What's wrong with evolving?"

Ange has always believed that evolution is a natural law in the process of Pokémon life evolution, so he supports the evolution of every Pokémon.

Seeing that both Pokémon had their heads down, Anja pointed to the Mischievous Panda and said, "You go first. You're usually the most arrogant one."

Although the mischievous panda hesitated, he eventually revealed why he was unwilling to evolve.

It turns out that Panda's parents are also native Pokémon from the Nebel Plateau. Its mother is a Pandaren, and its father is a Ursaring.

After the mischievous panda was born, the family of three enjoyed a happy time together.

The mischievous panda thought that this peaceful and tranquil time would continue forever, but one day his father, Circle Bear, suddenly suggested that he go out and explore.

The mischievous panda and the domineering panda had no idea where it got this idea from, but Circle Bear was very determined and no one could persuade it otherwise.

On the day Circle Bear set off, Domineering Panda suddenly made a decision: she would follow her husband out to explore the world.

The mischievous panda was quite shocked. Its parents were gone. What was it going to do?

So it suggested going with its parents, but both Circle Bear and Tyrant Panda objected.

The outside world is unknown, and the mischievous panda is still so young, how can he go out on an adventure?

Staying on the Nibel Plateau, with the care of everyone, they believe the mischievous panda will grow up safely and healthily.

However, in the eyes of the young, mischievous panda, his parents had abandoned him heartlessly and irresponsibly.

Since then, the mischievous panda has harbored a seed in its heart that it does not want to evolve into a domineering panda like its mother.

After listening, Anjie sighed, "These are indeed irresponsible parents."

He thought for a moment and said to the naughty panda, "Your mother is your mother, and you are you. How can you be the same? The domineering panda and the domineering panda are not the same either!"

For example, the domineering panda we encountered in the western mountains was very dutiful in raising the mischievous pandas, even though those mischievous pandas weren't its own offspring.

"Ya cha~ ya cha~~"

However, the mischievous panda resolutely shook its head; it didn't want to evolve, and it felt that it was fine as it was.

Anjie said helplessly, "Alright, after we leave the Pokémon Center, I'll take you to buy an Everstone. You can take the Everstone off whenever you want to evolve."

After saying that, he looked at Digger Rabbit and asked, "And what about you?"

Upon hearing this, Digger Rabbit lowered its head and remained silent.

Just then, Ange noticed that the Mk Eagle pecked at him with its beak, and he looked at the Mk Eagle in confusion.

"Muk~ Muk~"

The eagle hopped out of the examination room and gestured for Angie to follow it.

Anjie placed the Digger Rabbit and the Mischievous Panda on the bed with a puzzled look, and then followed the Hawk out.

After Anjie left, the mischievous panda sighed, gently patted the dug rabbit's shoulder, and gave it a hug.

Anjie walked to the door of the examination room and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Mk Eagle?"

"Muk~ Muk~"

The Hawk told Ange why the Digger Rabbit refused to evolve.

Starhawk hadn't thought of this before, but when it learned from Miss Joy that Diggard got sick because it didn't want to evolve, a realization flashed through its mind.

It turns out that the Digger Rabbit wasn't born living on the Nibel Plateau.

Long ago, it lived with its tribe in the mountains to the north.

However, compared to other diggers in the group, Angie's digger is the smallest and thinnest.

The tribal chief at the time particularly disliked it, feeling that it was slow in everything it did, seriously hindering the tribe's progress.

Because of the leader's neglect and indulgence, the Digger Rabbits of the same age in the group treated it like a little brother, ordering it around as it pleased every day, whether it was making it massage its waist and back or helping it find food.

Sometimes they even go so far as to steal food that should belong to the Digging Rabbit.

The Digger Rabbit never saw its parents after it was born, so it had no other members of its kind to protect it, and it was constantly bullied.

Later, all the Digger Bunnies of the same age evolved into Digger Bunnies, but Digger Bunnies did not evolve.

How can it evolve if it can't even get enough to eat every day?

This made everyone bully it even more, and they often demanded that Digger Rabbit practice fighting with them.

But how could the digging rabbits possibly be their match? Their so-called battle practice was nothing more than one-sided abuse.

Therefore, the rabbit is often covered in wounds.

Over time, Digger Rabbit developed a deep loathing for its evolved form, Digger Rabbit.

Later, the Big Flower family happened to pass by and saw that Digger Rabbit was being bullied. They stepped in to help Digger Rabbit, and Digger Rabbit was saved.

Later, persuaded by the Flower-like family, the Digger Rabbit left its pack and moved with them to the Nibel Plateau.

Many Pokémon on the plateau know about Diggory's past, so they usually take good care of it.

After being raised by the people on the Nibel Plateau for a long time, the Digger Rabbit gradually grew stronger.

The reason why the original Digger Rabbit was thin and small was because there was too little food available in its tribe. Otherwise, how could it have become strong and powerful after arriving at the Nibel Plateau?

After hearing about Jujue Rabbit's story, Anjie couldn't help but feel sorry for him, and he sighed deeply.

It seems everyone on the Nibel Plateau has their own past!

After understanding what had happened, Anjie pushed open the door and re-entered the examination room, picked up the rabbit again, and gently patted it, saying:

"If we don't evolve, we don't evolve. Even if we don't evolve, we can still live a more exciting life than anyone else."

"Hoobi~~" Juju Rabbit nodded, her eyes slightly warm, and she silently clenched Anjie's clothes with both hands.

"Alright, let's go. I'll go buy you the Everstone," Anjie said in a light tone, dispelling the heavy atmosphere.

"Ya cha~~"

The mischievous panda nimbly jumped off the bed, opened the door to the examination room, and walked ahead.

Anjie laughed, "Do you know where to buy the Everstone? You ran there so fast."

"Ya cha~ ya cha~"

The mischievous panda turned around and grinned foolishly at Anjie.

After paying the medical fee, Anjay left the Pokémon Center with Digger Rabbit, Mischievous Panda, and Starhawk.

After regaining its energy, the mischievous panda became cheerful again, holding the hand of the digger rabbit and hopping and skipping ahead.

The initially sad Digger Rabbit, influenced by the mischievous panda, started smiling again.

Angel brought them to the Pokémon shop where she had bought evolution stones for Bellossom and Vileplume last time, and easily found the location where Everstone was sold.

The Everstone is the cheapest of all the held items, costing less than 10,000 League Coins. So Angel bought five or six at once, just in case anyone else didn't want to evolve.

When he went to pay the bill with the Everstone, he passed by the Evolution Stone area and immediately spotted a Dark Stone that was as black as ink.

Dark stones are usually deep purple; if the purple is almost black, it means that its quality is quite high.

Anjie couldn't help but go over and take a look. Sure enough, the Dark Stone was priced at 15 Alliance Coins, which was half again as much as a regular Dark Stone.

Knowing that Lantana needs a Dark Stone to evolve into Chandelure, Ange still picked it up.

Anyway, he's not short of money. Since evolution stones are something that can affect a Pokémon's entire life, he should use the best ones if possible.

Although there is currently no research showing that using higher-quality evolution stones will have any benefits for Pokémon, using good ones is never a bad thing.

After leaving the Pokémon Shop, Angel put the two pendants decorated with Everstones on the necks of Rabbit and Panda respectively.

The Everstones in the Elf Shop are all pre-processed and polished, and you can choose from matching chains in various styles and lengths.

After putting on the pendant, the two Pokémon curiously played with the Everstone.

Anjie asked with a smile, "How is it? Do you like it?"

The Everlasting Stone pendant can be used as both a carrying item and a decoration.

"Yay!" The mischievous panda grinned and nodded, looking rather vain.

"Hooray~" Digger Rabbit also looked delighted.

"Alright, in that case, let's go home."

Anjay then took several Pokémon home.

As soon as Anjie got home, she saw Diancie looking anxious. Even though she could already see the lively Digger Rabbit and the mischievous Panda, she still asked worriedly:

"Are Naughty Panda and Digger Rabbit alright? Why did they suddenly get sick?"

So Ange told Diancie about how these two had endured their illnesses to avoid evolving.

After listening, Tianxi said helplessly, "You guys, you can't do this again next time. If you need anything, just come to me and Anjie, okay?"

"Ya cha~"

"Hobi~"

The two Pokémon nodded obediently.

For some reason, even though Diancie is very gentle, the mischievous panda and the digging rabbit always feel an invisible pressure when facing her, and they don't feel as relaxed as when facing Angie.

"Alright, go have some fun," Tianxi said with a smile.

"Ya cha~"

"Hobi~"

The two Pokémon cheered and ran off.

Once outside, the mischievous panda started showing off the Everstone that Anjie had bought for it. Although no one understood what was so great about the Everstone, they still showed their support.

The mischievous panda was delighted by the praise.

During dinner, Anjie learned his lesson and, while everyone was present, made a special point of explaining what had happened that day. He told everyone that if anyone didn't want to evolve in the future, they could just tell him, and he would respect everyone's opinion.

Only a minority of Pokémon don't want to evolve. Apart from Pancham and Bungalow, no other Pokémon came to tell Angela that it didn't want to evolve.

After dinner, Anjie called out to the Ghost of Light, who was about to leave.

The ghostly light flew to Anjie's side and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Look what this is?" Anjie took out the Dark Stone and showed it to the Lamp Ghost.

"Lampoo~ Lampoo~"

Upon seeing the Dark Stone, the Ghostly Lamp let out a joyful cry and circled around the Dark Stone in Anjie's palm.

Anjie handed the Dark Stone to the Ghost of Light, saying, "Take it quickly."

The Spectral happily reached out and took the Dark Stone. The moment it touched the Dark Stone, a bright evolution light shone from it.

The light spread from the ghostly hand all the way to its entire body, and within the light, the ghostly form began to change rapidly.

Soon the light of evolution disappeared, and a brand new Pokémon appeared in front of Angel.

This Pokémon has a chandelier-like shape, a white body with black stripes, a pair of captivating golden eyes, four lampstand-shaped arms burning with blue-purple flames, and a cluster of flames of the same color burning on its head.

This is how you lure the Pokémon Chandelure, a Ghost/Fire type.

"Ta-la~ Ta-la~ Xiang-ta-la~"

After successfully evolving, Chandelure happily circled around on Ange's head, spewing out wisps of flame from its head and four arms, celebrating and expressing its joy like fireworks.

"Congratulations, Chandelier Spirit, you've finally reached your final evolved form."

"Champagne! Champagne!"

The Crystal Chandelier Spirit kept expressing its gratitude to Anjie, knowing that an evolution stone cost a lot of money.

Anjie laughed, "Why are you being so polite with me? Alright, go tell your friends about your evolution!"

"Ta-la~ Xiang-ta-la~" The crystal chandelier spirit nodded and then floated away happily.

That morning, Anjie had just finished get off work at the Snorlax House when his phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was Ayaka calling.

After the call was connected, Ayaka's voice came from the other end.

"Mr. Anjie, do you remember our previous agreement?"

Anjie replied, "Of course."

Ayaka said apologetically, "I was held up by something earlier. I was wondering if you'd still be willing to keep your promise?"
