I'm popularizing ecology in the Pokémon world.

Chapter 63: Subduing is a Responsibility

Chen Mu accepted the medal from the Governor-General of Guandu with a slightly bewildered expression.

Then, in the next instant, several rows of Magneton floating in the air appeared before us, each with a camera or video camera hanging below it, and the flashes went off in a flurry.

Even amidst the rapid clicking of camera shutters, he immediately spotted a particularly crisp sound.

Because it wasn't a sound that rang in his ears, but rather a sound that resonated directly in his mind and consciousness.

【bite--

The current crisis mission is complete!

Crisis area: Viridian Forest

Crisis Level (at final settlement): 15

Task Settlement Evaluation: Excellent

Basic reward: Eco Points x7

Bonus Reward: "Legendary Ability" Everlasting Power (Direct exchange price in the shop: 188 Eco Points)

After the system notification finished playing, Chen Mu immediately felt a cool sensation flow through his entire body, refreshing and invigorating.

He could almost hear the rustling of leaves, as if the Viridian Forest was conveying its gratitude to him from afar.

At the same time, the Governor of Kanto Province on the platform took this opportunity to formally announce to the public a series of protection and rescue measures that would be implemented for the Viridian Forest.

The most significant of these is the tunnel construction plan that Lijia had previously revealed to Chen Mu.

Once the tunnel is completed, not only will the migration of several Eevee evolutions become more convenient, but the League can also use the tunnel to further divert some suitable Pokémon from the highlands to Viridian Forest, thereby accelerating the ecological recovery of Viridian Forest.

With the official announcement of these conservation plans, it is believed that in a few years, Viridian Forest will completely shed its stereotype as a beginner leveling area and usher in a true rebirth!

This is perhaps why the system finally determined that Chen Mu had completely resolved the crisis.

After these delightful announcements were made, the governor left the podium.

After coming down from the stage, he approached Chen Mu again.

"Professor Chen, hehe, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Besides the honor of the alliance, I have a small gift that I would like to give you personally. I hope you will not refuse."

"You're too kind."

Chen Mu accepted it with trepidation.

Upon receiving the gift box from his secretary, Chen Mu discovered that it contained two beautifully packaged skill discs.

All of these are moves that Ralts can learn, and one of them is the very useful Fairy-type move "Dazzling Gleam"!

The other one is quite interesting; it's actually a "finger gesture".

Finger wagging, also known as finger shaking, has the effect of randomly activating a move that the Pokémon is aware of, regardless of whether it has learned it.

It is arguably the most random Pokémon move, bar none.

I wonder what the governor's motives were in sending him that disc...

Having received the gift, Chen Mu was naturally embarrassed to leave directly and was forced to stay and chat with the governor for a long time.

After a series of polite, official, friendly, and thorough exchanges, Chen Mu finally gained some understanding.

The governor probably didn't want to get too close to the Rockets in the future, which is why he offered such a huge reward.

Would you call this playing both sides and getting something for nothing? Chen Mu wondered to himself.

He had previously accepted gifts from the Rockets.

At that moment, he couldn't help but feel quite proud of himself; he was even able to eat his way from the previous customer to the next! (Laughs)

After the slightly awkward pleasantries with the important figures, the joyous celebration began.

The town was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, and there were banners and promotional signs for the festival everywhere.

As the one who invited him, Lijia took the initiative to show Chen Mu around.

During this time, they also encountered three children, Minami, Kiyoshi, and Kurosaki Hidemasa, as well as their parents.

Minami was currently wrapped her beloved Arbok around her neck, and she was very happy.

However, this has also caused a significant rift in her friendship: her best friend Qinglian now refuses to stand with her no matter what, and usually keeps a distance of several meters.

During their stroll, they also saw many people causing various problems after the hunting season ended.

Someone was chasing after their newly captured Flying-type Pokémon, pleading humbly, "My little darling, please come down!"

Some people's newly captured Pokémon are so curious that they run around in the crowd, making their trainers anxious.

Some people walk confidently down the street, unaware that the hair on their heads has long been eaten away by the stinging insects on their heads.

Chen Mu and several acquaintances strolled leisurely along the town's pedestrian shopping street, occasionally amused by the embarrassed trainers around them.

Suddenly they heard complaints, seemingly from several novice trainers who were fed up with the status quo.

"This is so annoying! Pokémon caught from the wild are such a hassle! They're curious about everything in the city and get easily startled and stressed. I'm almost having a nervous breakdown from all this!"

"I don't care anymore, now I put my Pokémon back in their Poké Balls every time I go out! Otherwise, I'll be driven crazy by all the annoyance!"

"I hate those dangerous and troublesome Pokémon the most!"

Immediately, someone turned around and noticed the Arbok on Minami's neck. He was disgusted and fearful, so he took several steps back, spat hard, and then turned and walked away.

This made Minami a little disappointed. Being shy, she instinctively reached for the Poké Ball at her waist, intending to recall the Ekans that had frightened her.

However, Chen Mu stopped him.

"You don't need to worry about that person. It's not good to keep Pokémon locked in Poké Balls all the time."

"Hey? Teacher Chen, won't what I'm doing bother others? Arbok has only just arrived in the human world, I'm afraid it will stress and scare other people."

Chen Mu stopped her again and solemnly advised her, "If the Arbok is stressed, go and comfort it and help it get used to the human world!"

If it accidentally frightens someone, then take it with you to apologize, actively address the issue, and take responsibility.

Instead of taking the easy way out and putting it back in the Poké Ball and ignoring it from the start.

When wild Pokémon first enter the human world, they always have to go through a gradual adaptation process. We can't just abandon them because we're afraid of the trouble, otherwise they will never be able to integrate into their new living environment!

Taming is not only a pleasure, but also a responsibility.

We cannot only appreciate the emotional value that Pokémon provide, and then discard them when faced with situations that might cause trouble.

"Then you shouldn't have taken them out of the wild in the first place!"

Upon hearing Chen Mu's words, Mei Bo immediately perked up again.

Even Qinglian seemed thoughtful and embarrassed by what was said.

She then took the initiative to approach, mustered up her courage, and reached out to touch the Arbok on Minami's neck.

She also apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, Minami, I shouldn't have been avoiding you and your snake lately."

"It's okay, we're good friends~"

Seeing the two girls reconcile and Arbok gradually getting used to being touched by humans, Chen Mu couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

This is the warm and wonderful Pokémon world he knows.

When he turned around, he caught a glimpse of someone trying to cover up their camera lens as it was being put away.

Upon meeting her gaze, I saw Rika smiling happily.

"Oh, I hope Teacher Chen won't mind me uploading this video?"

"..."

Ha, it seems that even in a warm and cozy world, there's no shortage of cunning and mischief.
