Pokémon Breeding Guide.

Chapter 417 Aroma City, Ma Xiu

"It's too late for the Hoenn Alliance to regret it now. Their higher-ups probably hate themselves for signing the unlimited greening development rights back then."

Bamboo and the Cold Season:

In a sense, even with the help of Pokémon skills, Giovanni's speed in planting trees and restoring the ecology is a bit too fast.

This is because they're afraid the Hoenn League might suddenly back out.

Zhu Suihan began to count how many alliances and regions he remembered.

Let's hope Giovanni doesn't end up creating a Viridian Forest in every region through various means; that would be a real mess.

He had witnessed Giovanni and Beedrill's bond transformation.

If someone in the future suddenly decides to fight Giovanni, this middle-aged man will simply shout, "Witness our bond!" and create a spectacular phenomenon.

The power of the Viridian Forest from all over the world instantly underwent a nine-colored sublimation and converged at the top, pouring endless power into the body of Beedrill in its Holy Knight form.

Thinking of that possibility, Zhu Suihan couldn't help but twitch his fingers.

Not bad, not bad, that's more interesting.

With enough effort, both partners and trainers will become stronger, and there will be many diverse and fruitful training outcomes.

"Oh, by the way, what brings you here? Have you got the soil analysis results over there?"

"I almost forgot."

Watari slapped his forehead: "So far, there's a result; it's the Carlos region."

Zhu Suihan nodded, not too surprised by the result.

Currently, there are very few areas he hasn't visited, but none of the areas he has visited have triggered such a strong reaction from the insects.

If you're not in a mainstream region, you might really have to try your luck outside of the league.

Or there's an even more outrageous possibility: that the insect's hometown is in a place similar to a time-space realm, which would be even more significant.

"So how did they get here?"

"When people flee, it's not surprising that they go anywhere; it's common for them to run from the southernmost point to the northernmost point."

Du thought for a moment: "The people in the history research department said that even in the dark ages, this family was considered to be one of the most notorious."

"Besides the rebels from back then, there are probably quite a few nobles who want to kill them, so it's impossible for them to hide in a similar place with their own kind."

Du closed his eyes: "The noble settlements outside the borderlands are like opening blind boxes. Wasn't that the Emperor Fang Sea Lion family last time the same thing? There aren't many Emperor Fang Sea Lions here in Quartz."

"Didn't you go to Galar? Maybe you'll run into some nobles from Kanto and Johto who fled there."

Upon careful consideration, Zhu Suihan found that there was actually nothing wrong with what he said.

Many people moved to other regions during the League era, and a representative example from the Carlos region is the Dragon Elite Four member, Dorasena.

The other party's grandparents seem to be from the town of Kami in the Sinnoh region.

There's also Marshall, the Gym Leader of Lavender City. Her hometown is the Johto region, and all the trainers in her gym wear long-sleeved kimonos.

The last part seems to have something to do with the kimono-clad girl in Enju City; it's the origin of all things.

No wonder that kid Akin likes it so much.

Du tossed a box: "I also brought some of that bottle of soil for you. As for Carlos, I suggest you go to Aroma City and ask around. That city has a long history and might have more information on this."

After all, the alliance only needs to address the issue of "noble status," but has no intention of tracing back to the source.

"So there's not much information worth telling you over there. If you don't know anyone in the Carlos region, I can introduce you to someone."

Zhu Suihan brought over a cup of coffee.

"I'll find my own way, but my advice to you is to retire early."

He took the cup and said, "Wait, why is this coffee green?"

"Because this is the price of power."

Zhu Suihan waved his hand: "I've prepared a potion for you. Don't worry, it's safe for people to drink. Just arrange your work for now and then have a toast before bed."

Watari: "Just to be on the safe side, let me ask one more question: how long will this potion keep me asleep?"

"It depends on how tired you are. This thing is essentially a conditioning treatment, allowing your body to recover to its proper level through natural repair."

Zhu Suihan paused for a moment.

"Yes, that's why you need to eat properly before bed, otherwise you might wake up hungry halfway through your recovery."

"If the repair is interrupted halfway through, the effect won't be very good, and you also have to take into account your midnight binge eating."

Du put the coffee aside with satisfaction.

"Okay, thanks."

That's right, this is what Suihan's products should look like, and it's what they should use in their private lives.

He would only feel at ease if there were some harmless side effects!

When are you leaving?

Zhu Suihan shrugged: "It has to be now. Anyway, everything is in my incense burner. I can't possibly wait here for the next batch of trainers to come and propose to me."

Du looked his good friend up and down, muttered a few words like "I don't see what's so good about you," and then left with his coffee.

"Of course, it's only wrong if you can tell."

Zhu Suihan took out his phone and checked the flight information: "By the way, does the plane that Loz arranged for us support flying to Carlos?"

This is a small matter, so it's definitely not a problem, and there's no need for it in our family.

Mewtwo said: "My suggestion is to listen to Dudu. That place called Lavender City is indeed a good place to do research."

For searching information that is less official, or in other words, more akin to unofficial history, modern metropolises are not as convenient as some historically rich towns.

With Sui Han's luck, he might just stumble upon clues by wandering into some historically significant places.

"Okay, let's head to Aroma City."

Zhu Suihan had just snapped his fingers when he involuntarily stopped for a moment.

How did he get caught up in this "I have to go" scenario again?

The last time I went to the Sinnoh region was for Piplup, but this time it's for the Bugs' enhancement plan and homecoming plan.

The only thing they have in common is that both Sinnoh and the Kalos region have their own old friends.

"hiss--"

Zhu Suihan gasped, hoping that Zygarde had vented his anger back then, otherwise he would have to fight again this time.

No, no, that's not true. I believe in the character of legendary Pokémon. Legendary Pokémon are the pride of the Pokémon world!

"Carlos has arrived. Is anyone suddenly feeling excited and wanting to shout?"

The dragon approached and whimpered, "Huh?"

Alcremie is more direct: "Kemi."

Are you out of your mind?

Zhu Suihan stroked his chin: "No, I thought this land had some kind of magic."

He couldn't remember which place in his previous life Kalos was based on, but his memories of Ash were still quite vivid.

As I recall, Ash was incredibly cheerful in Kalos, and as soon as he got off the plane, he exclaimed, "Ash from Pallet Town is here!"

There is a kind of beauty in "reaching the world's highest city".

At the start of the Carlos Tournament, before the first match even began, he declared his victory by declaring that he would "win the championship," which garnered a lot of attention.

Ash's actions would probably make those Contest Trainers in the anime, who crave attention, so angry they'd bite their handkerchiefs.

Although it might seem a bit silly, shouting a few words in that kind of situation definitely attracts a lot of attention.

Alpha took flight: "Fragrance City, so should we go straight to the League branch, or visit the Gym Leader of Fragrance City, Marie?"

"Dad, I just looked it up. It seems that the most historically significant thing in Fragrant City is that tree. It's said to be 1,500 years old."

But it's clear that the tree won't tell them any information; it's only a possibility if the tree becomes a rotten wood spirit someday.

"Go find the gym leader; the league branch probably can't help us much in this regard."

Compared to the staff in the Alliance branches who may come from other towns, the head of the academy is the true local of Aroma City.

Zhu Suihan smiled and said, "Anyway, given our current reputation, we can just go and pay them a visit, unless they are busy with official business."

Egui Pong: "Boni."

If an ordinary person said that, then the dojo master would really have been busy working back then.

The historical character of Aroma City is not limited to that tree that can be seen from any direction; everything in the environment tells the story of this city's history.

"Kemi".

Alcremie crossed her arms, thinking how wonderful it would be if she had the ability to "hear the voice of all things," so that she might actually be able to hear what the trees were saying.

"Forget about it, you who own the Cream Fruit."

Zhu Suihan placed Shuangnaixian on his shoulder: "Maybe seeing you will give Ma Xiu Guanzhu a burst of inspiration to create more unique and better-selling clothes."

Ma Xiu is a well-known fashion designer in the Carlos region, and also a curator whose side business is more successful than her main job.

"These days, not many people take being a dojo owner seriously."

Zhu Suihan arrived at the dojo's front desk: "Hello, I'd like to see Dojo Master Ma Xiu, but not for a dojo challenge."

The girl in the kimono at the front desk had a big smile on her face.

"Okay, we'll register you now. Please tell me your name."

"Bamboo Suihan."

About ten minutes later, Ma Xiu appeared in the reception room, bowing with a professional smile on her face.

"I have long admired your name, Mr. Suihan. May I ask what brings you to Xiangxun City from so far away?"

Bamboo Suihan:

"Excuse me for being so forward, but have I disturbed your work?"

Ma Xiu covered her mouth and chuckled: "That's not it. I'm just used to speaking like this, and I sometimes use the old-fashioned term 'this concubine'."

Zhu Suihan remembered that Master Bao, in the story of Pasio, Ma Xiu often used "people" as a prefix in conversation.

Never mind, as long as it's not about me.

Zhu Suihan took out the box of soil: "I came here this time to find a place. The soil artwork inside the box is said to have belonged to a nobleman in the Carlos region."

Ma Xiu understood: "I get it now, what kind of artwork is it?"

"The main ingredient is soil, with some locally sourced additives. It smells like home."

Ma Xiu frowned: "Mr. Sui Han, is it in a hurry?"

"There's no rush."

Ma Xiu continued to smile: "That makes things much more convenient. I don't know much about scents, but Zhi Mi will come over in a couple of days to exchange ideas with me."

"That guy who's obsessed with cooking is very sensitive to smells. I can ask him for you; I'm sure Jimmy would be happy to help."
