Elf: I Am a Farmer

Chapter 89 An Encounter with the Shuttlecock Grass Clan

"That might be true. Anyway, I haven't noticed any negative effects this change has had on the turkeys!"

Chiba Kaede could only continue along with what Dr. Oda Birch had to say.

"This situation is very rare. I plan to simulate an environment full of fire-type energy and let the Torchic egg hatch in it to see if the same thing happens with your Torchic."

Professor Birch wasn't sure if this was an isolated case, but if Torchic could be hatched in that kind of environment, it would definitely increase Torchic's affinity for fire-type energy.

"Then I wish you success, Doctor. Also, if the Torchic exhibits any unusual behavior, I will communicate with you immediately."

Chiba Kaede also had his own thoughts on this. After all, Torchic hadn't started training yet, and he didn't know if any unusual situations might occur under these circumstances. Having the knowledgeable Professor Birch as a supporter would be the best thing ever.

"If that's the case, that would be wonderful!"

Professor Oda was delighted to hear what Chiba Kaede said, feeling that the boy's character and temperament suited him perfectly, and his favorability towards him rose to a new level.

"By the way, Doctor, these are the Pokémon fossils I obtained."

Chiba Kaede hadn't forgotten the purpose of her trip, so she quickly took out the elf fossil from her backpack and handed it to Professor Birch.

"Yes, it is indeed an elf fossil, and it is very well preserved; it can be resurrected."

After carefully examining the Pokémon fossil, Professor Birch gave this conclusion that satisfied Kaede Chiba. 👮🔥 ❻➈ˢ𝐇ùЖ.𝔠𝐎爪🎁🐊

Previously, although he knew that fossil resurrection was possible, he was still unsure whether the Pokémon fossil he had obtained was suitable for resurrection.

Now, with Professor Birch's assurance, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Professor. If there's anything else I need to assist with during the revival of the Pokémon fossil, just let me know!"

Chiba Kaede said excitedly.

"It's good that you have this intention. I need about a week to prepare before I can fully revive the Pokémon inside. Then, give my gym about a week to conduct research. After that, you can come and pick up the revived fossil Pokémon."

Dr. Oda Birch gave an estimated time for the revival, as well as the time her research would take.

"No problem, then I won't bother you any longer, Doctor. Just contact me to come and pick it up after you've finished studying the resurrected fossil Pokémon."

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Chiba Kaede did not linger any longer. After all, both sides were quite busy. Well, it was the other party who was busier, while he was not short of time.

"Then I won't stop you. I need to hurry up and prepare the materials needed to revive the spirit fossil."

Dr. Odama smiled and said goodbye to Kaede Chiba.

This was not an excuse; reviving fossils using a fossil revival device is not as simple as it seems.

The genes of the elves were extracted from the fossils and recombined into elves. The resurrected elves did not look exactly the same as before, and they also lost their past memories.

Pokémon resurrected through fossils generally possess the Rock type, which confirms that the resurrected Pokémon is not exactly the same as its original form from ancient times, but rather that its genes have been altered to some extent due to being sealed in rocks for a long time.

The cost of the nutrient solution and various materials required for this revival process is not a small amount. If it weren't for Dr. Odamaru's research needs, it would be difficult for Chiba Kaede to raise the funds in a short period of time on her own.

Having successfully completed the purpose of this trip, Chiba Kaede was in a very good mood, as if a burden had been lifted and a major task had been accomplished.

As Chiba Kaede's number one underling, Swellow's mood improved when it saw its trainer so happy, so its flight path became somewhat unpredictable.

"Ugh, Great Swallow, stop spinning!"

Once Swellow gets excited, even its trainer, Kaede Chiba, can't handle it.

However, his body couldn't take it anymore; he felt like the breakfast he ate in the morning was about to come out of his stomach, and he couldn't stop it.

At this point, the Great Swallow would behave itself for a while, until Chiba Kaede calmed down her urge to vomit, and then it would begin to solidify and sprout again.

"That King Swallow deliberately humiliated me. I'll remember this grudge and give it a good beating when we get back!"

Chiba Kaede covered her mouth with one hand to prevent herself from vomiting, but in her heart she was silently making a fuss about Da Wang Yan.

"That's a shuttlecock grass. The giant swallow is flying towards the shuttlecock grass."

Chiba Kaede glanced diagonally downwards and noticed a group of shuttlecock grasses flying in the air, heading in the opposite direction from them. If he hadn't seen them just now, he would have missed them entirely.

After hearing the trainer's words, Swellow temporarily abandoned its mischievous intentions and obediently flew towards the Jumpluffs, although it didn't understand why the trainer wanted to get close to them.

Chiba Kaede didn't expect to be so lucky, encountering a group of shuttlecock grass on her first trip. Of course, this may also be largely due to the fact that shuttlecock grass is not rare.

If we can bring these shuttlecock grasses back to the farm and teach them how to grow grass, then it will be much easier to grow any crop in the future.

Soon, the giant swallow flew to the group of shuttlecock grass. The shuttlecock grass was not on guard against their arrival and just looked at them curiously.

Because of their light weight, shuttlecock grass can float gently in the wind, so they usually move around with the wind, going wherever the wind blows.

After a trainer catches a Jumpluff, they need to be very careful of sudden strong winds, otherwise it will be very troublesome to find the Jumpluff after it is blown away.

"Come out, shuttlecock flower!"

Chiba Kaede remembered that she had brought a shuttlecock with her on this trip, so she released it.

The shuttlecock grasses were overjoyed to see the shuttlecock flower, and they flew around it, occasionally rubbing their faces against it.

The shuttlecock was overjoyed to see so many of its kind; it touched one and hugged another.

It was originally a member of a large herbaceous plant, but it got separated from the main group and was later brought back to Chiba Farm by Chiba Kaede, where it has lived ever since.

"Shuttlecock flower, I'd like to ask you to help me communicate with the shuttlecock grass to see if we can let them live at our Chiba Farm."

Seeing that the time was right, Chiba Kaede explained her purpose to Shuten-dōji.

Upon hearing Chiba Kaede's words, Shuten-dōji's eyes lit up, even though she hadn't had any particular thoughts before.

There are only three of these shuttlecocks living at Chiba Farm, and they often have to be separated because of their trainers.

If these shuttlecock plants could be brought to Chiba Farm to live, they wouldn't feel lonely, since shuttlecock plants prefer to live in groups.

The rest of the time was devoted to the shuttlecock flower. It fluttered up and down, chattering and introducing something to the shuttlecock grass around it. Whenever it saw a shuttlecock grass with a different opinion, it would personally go up to it and persuade it until it nodded in agreement.

About half an hour later, the shuttlecock grasses finally reached a consensus and decided to follow the shuttlecock flower leader to live on Chiba Farm.

The shuttlecock flower looked somewhat exhausted, indicating that it had put in a lot of effort to persuade all the shuttlecock grasses.

While the shuttlecock flower was persuading the shuttlecock grass tribe, Chiba Kaede was also busy. He quietly signaled the Great Swallow to change the direction of the airflow in this area, pushing the shuttlecock grass towards Chiba Farm.

By the time the shuttlecock grasses agreed to settle at Chiba Farm, they were already almost there without even realizing it.

Chiba Kaede had made two preparations. Even if the shuttlecock flower failed to persuade the shuttlecock grass, he planned to take them to Chiba Farm first and let them experience life there. If he still couldn't keep them by then, it would only prove that he and the shuttlecock grass were not meant to be.
