Chapter 289 Settling New Partners

Watching Anja, Diancie, and Munchlax interact, Miss Skirt couldn't help but stare blankly.

The harmonious atmosphere between Anjie and Diancie reminded Miss Skirt of the time when the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile and Xiao Chen spent time together, which was also so harmonious and intimate.

But it was all an illusion.

While Miss Skirt was lost in thought, Anja introduced it, along with Flower Leaf and Flower Bebe, to Tianxi and Munchlax.

"Tianci, Snorlax, and these are Miss Skirt, Leafy, and Flabby. Due to some special reasons, they will be staying with us for a while."

Upon hearing this, Diancie immediately extended a friendly welcome to Miss Skirt, "Hello, I am Diancie, welcome to Nibel Plateau."

"Gang~ Gang~" The little Snorlax greeted Miss Skirt and the others with a smile.

Miss Skirt was quite friendly towards Pokémon, responding gently to Diancie and Munchlax.

"Lidi~Lidi~" Hello, nice to meet you.

"Whoosh~"

"Rabe~"

The Flower Leaf and Flower Bebe also greeted Snorlax and Diancie very warmly. They flew to Diancie's side and excitedly circled around her. They sensed a very comfortable aura emanating from Diancie.

Then Anjie added, "Oh, right, I also brought back some companions. We need to take good care of them."

With that, he led the Pokémon out of the house.

As soon as he stepped outside, he saw Flareon, Jolteon, Vaporeon, and Umbreon rushing towards him.

"Shawo~" Anjie, you're back!

"Sander~" We miss you so much!

……

Four Eevee dogs circled around Angel, rubbing their heads against Angel's legs, expressing their longing for Angel during this time and their welcome back to Angel.

Anjie crouched down and patted the heads of the four Eevee dogs one by one, then said mysteriously, "I've brought you back some new companions."

Upon hearing this, all four Eevee creatures looked up at him.

Anjie took out a Poké Ball, and the next second, Glaceon and Salamence appeared outside.

The Ice Eevee, which is as big as a calf, startled the other four Eevee when it appeared.

"Gray~Gray~" Seeing the four of its kind looking at it in surprise, Glaceon raised its smiling face and greeted them in a friendly manner.

Angel had told it about the existence of Flareon, Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Umbreon long beforehand, so it had been eagerly anticipating meeting them.

Glaceon's smile instantly broke down the barriers between them, and the other four Eevee's huddled close to Glaceon, nuzzling against it with their heads.

Glaceon is the largest of the five Eevee, and it has to lower its head to interact with the other four Eevee.

Then Angel introduced Salamence to the Eevee and the others.

"This is Salamence, Glaceon's good friend."

"Awoo~" Salamence waved its claws and greeted the Eevee.

Seeing Glaceon meet so many of its kind, it was very happy for Glaceon.

At first, the Eevee friends were startled by Salamence's fierce appearance, but seeing how friendly it was, they happily responded to it.

"Blacky!"

"Pfft~"

……

After everyone got to know each other, Angel said to the four Eevee, "Glass Eevee is new here, why don't you take it around and show it around!"

"Sawa~" Leave it to us!

"Mizuki stepped forward and said."

Then the five Eevee dogs walked away chatting and laughing.

After the Eevee and the others had gone, Ange said to Diancie and the others, "Let's go settle the other friends!"

"Hmm, where to next?" Tianxi asked.

Anjie replied, "Go to the hive."

So the group headed toward the hive, while the Salamence flew overhead.

Halfway there, Salamence spotted Latios and Latias, and happily flew towards the siblings to enjoy the scenery of the Nibel Plateau with them.

When Anjie and his group arrived at the hive, they did not see the two bees.

"They should be over in the flower field by now," Tianxi said.

No sooner had Tianxi finished speaking than two bees returned, chatting and laughing, carrying pollen with them.

"Honey~" It's Anjie!

"Honey~" Angie is back!

Upon seeing Anjie, they immediately sped up and flew back to the hive.

"Honey~" Anjie, I miss you, I miss you!

"Honey~" Anjie, why are you only coming back now!

Two bees flew around Anjie like enthusiastic little dogs.

Anjie happily interacted with the two bees; he stretched out his palm, and the two bees gently landed on it.

Anjie asked, "I brought back some new companions this time. Would you like to live with them?"

Although Anjie wanted to put the Beedrill and the three honeybees together, he still felt it would be better to ask the three honeybees for their opinion first.

If the three-horned bee doesn't want to live with the bee, it will rebuild a hive.

However, he was clearly overthinking it; the three bees were very welcoming of their new companions.

"Honey~" Yes! Yes!

"Honey~" Yes! Yes!

The hive that Anjie built for them was very large, but only the two of them could live there. Sometimes, the two bees inevitably felt a little lonely, so they were very happy to welcome the arrival of their new companion.

Seeing that the two bees agreed, Angie took out a Poké Ball and released the Beedrill.

"Hiss~ Hiss~"

After emerging, the bees looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings with a blank expression, and then all their eyes fell on Ange.

Anjie smiled and introduced to them, "This is where you will live from now on. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask the three bees. They are your roommates."

"Honey~ Honey~" When the two bees heard Anjie mention their names, they immediately greeted the bees in a friendly manner.

"Hiss~ Hiss~"

The bees responded in a friendly manner to the two bees.

Next, Ange placed the bee bees' original hive into the honeycomb, and the bee bees officially settled in the Nibel Plateau.

After the hive was set up, the leader of the bees flew into the hive, took out some of their stored honey, and flew to the two bees.

"Hiss~ Hiss~" Here you go, eat, it's delicious!

It kindly offered honey to two bees.

The two bees looked at Anjie with suspicion. Anjie smiled and said, "Quickly accept this; it's a gift from the Beedrill to welcome you!"

"Honey~"

"Honey~"

The two bees happily accepted the honey and began to savor it in small sips.

"Honey~" It's so delicious!

"Honey~" So sweet! So sweet!

The two bees ate and praised each other. The stinging bees were very happy to receive praise for their own honey, and they all gathered around the three bees, talking to them all at once.

Seeing the three honeybees and the bees getting along well, Anjie smiled with satisfaction.

"Three bees, would you please take the bees around and explore? They've just arrived in the Nibel Plateau and don't know their environment yet."

"Honey~"

"Honey~"

The two bees readily agreed and then led the stinging bees toward the flower field.

For bees like the three-necked bee and the giant bee, the most important place is, of course, the flower field!

After watching the bee and the three honeybees leave, Angie led Tianxi and the others home, just as the white butterflies fluttered down from the sky.

Lady Huajie used a vine whip to pull two colorful butterflies, which carried her through the air.

As a butterfly lowered its head, it saw Anjie waving at them, and happily swooped down.

"Li~~"

Seeing this, the other butterflies followed their companions and swarmed towards Anjie.

Lady Huajie landed with the colorful butterfly and saw Huayedi and Huabeibei following Anjie.

"Luo Jie~"

Similarly, the flower petals and buds also saw Lady Flower.

"Whoosh~"

"Rabe~"

They flew to Lady Flower's side and looked at her with curious eyes.

Lady Flower was seeing her kind for the first time. She stretched out her arms, and Flower Leaf and Flower Bud immediately understood and sat down on them.

While Anjie was interacting with the butterflies, Lady Flower Clean also had a friendly chat with Flower Leaf and Flower Bud.

Flower Leaf and Flower Bud admired Lady Flower, their final evolved form, and chattered excitedly with her, making their teacher, Miss Skirt, quite envious.

Honestly, you're so easy to get close to people, be careful you don't get sold out!

After the chat ended, Mrs. Flower invited Flower Leaf and Flower Bud to visit the orchard together.

Mrs. Hua Jie is very proud of the orchard she has cultivated.

The flower petals and buds were very excited, so they all looked at Miss Skirt.

Miss Skirt hesitated, but Ange persuaded her, "Let them go. There's no danger on the Nibel Plateau."

Miss Skirt snorted and waved impatiently at the students.

"Lidi~Lidi~" Go on, go on!

"Whoosh~"

"Rabe~"

The flower petals and buds immediately cheered excitedly.

So Flower Leaf Stem and Flower Bud followed Lady Flower and the Pink Butterfly and flew away again.

On the way back, Anjie saw the Dragonite practicing delivering takeout, each carrying a small satchel.

Miss Skirt asked疑惑地问道, "What are they doing?"

Anjie explained, "I'm practicing delivering food."

"Delivering takeout?" Miss Skirt asked, puzzled.

"It's a service where people order food online from our store and we deliver it to their door," Tianxi explained.

After spending time with Anjie, Miss Skirt already knows what the internet is, but even so, she still finds it incredible.

The internet, what a convenient tool!

It exclaimed in amazement, "Humans are truly incredible; they can even do something like this!"

Diancie laughed and said, "Indeed, humans are truly incredible creatures. Although they don't possess the various powers and abilities we have, they have a level of creativity that we can't match."

Miss Skirt fell silent upon hearing this. The more she came into contact with humans, the more her aversion and hatred towards them wavered.

Is it really wrong?

Thinking this, it turned its head and stared blankly at Anjie.

Just as Anjie finished waving to the Dragonite, he looked down and saw Miss Skirt staring straight at him.

He looked at himself and asked in confusion, "Miss Skirt, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with me? Or is there something dirty on me?"

"Hmph~" Miss Skirt snorted lightly, turned her head, and walked forward without looking back. "Nothing!"

Ange looked at Diancie and Munchlax with a questioning gaze, completely bewildered.

Tianxi shrugged at Anjie, indicating that she didn't know what had happened either.

"Gang~" The little Snorlax shook its head in confusion.

As he walked to the wall, Anjie saw the Orlyu sisters sunbathing with their arms outstretched. He slapped his forehead and said:

"How could I forget about that! We haven't even planted the red butterfly grass we brought back yet!"

Diancie asked疑惑地, "Red Butterfly Grass? What's that? Your new ingredient?"

Anjie explained, "It's not an ingredient, but a very beautiful herb. It would look very nice to plant it near my house."

Upon hearing this, the little Snorlax raised its hand and said, "Master, Master, let's plant them together!"

Anjie rubbed the back of its head and said, "Okay, let's plant them together."

Just then, Gengar, Stringman, Thrashing Monkey, and Babutop learned that Ange had returned and came looking for them.

"Babu~" Babu immediately rushed into Anjie's arms.

"Babu~ Babu~" Anjie, I miss you so much!

Anjie pinched its cheek and asked, "Did you miss me, or did you miss the food I cooked?"

Babu Tubo, thick-skinned as ever, readily admitted, "I want them all, I want them all!"

Anjie was amused by it and pinched its cheek hard, saying, "You little rascal... if you keep eating, you'll turn into a fragrant pig!"

"Babu~ Babu~" Babu covered his face and giggled, silently breaking free from Anjie's embrace, pinching his chubby belly to show that he didn't care if things changed.

Anjay then looked at Inteleon, Gengar, and Throwing Monkey and said, "You all worked hard while I was away!"

The work in the shop is not easy; without the support of his apprentices, his shop simply wouldn't be able to stay afloat.

"Geng~ Geng~~" It's not hard! It's not hard!

Gengar smiled and shook its head. It liked its current life and work and didn't find it hard at all.

"Indeed~"

"Percy~"

Both Thousand Faces and Throwing Monkey echoed Gengar's sentiments.

Anjie said, "Since everyone's here, let's plant some red butterfly grass together!"

He then looked at Miss Skirt and said, "Miss Skirt, you are skilled in cultivating herbs. Could you help us see where would be a suitable place to plant the Red Butterfly Grass?"

Miss Skirt was silent for a moment before nodding gently.

So Anjax and the other Pokémon followed Miss Skirt around, exploring the area.

After a long while, Miss Skirt stopped on a patch of ground not far from the pond behind the house and said, "This is the place. This is the most suitable spot."

Seeing this, Anjie happily said, "Alright, let's plant them here then."

As she spoke, Anja took out the Red Butterfly Grass, while Snorlax and Booggle happily ran over carrying a bunch of shovels, spades, and other tools.

Anjie picked up a shovel and shouted, "Let's get to work!"
