I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

Sheath hadn't researched this question much, since she didn't really know whether Steelix ate Diglett or not, nor was she interested in finding out. In the Pokémon world, this kind of thing wasn't uncommon, after all, Ekans would eat Rattata.

After reporting the incident, Heath placed two warning signs 150 meters before and after the pothole to prevent vehicles from missing them and then being unable to brake in time. He then returned to his food truck, intending to drive it to his usual stall location.

"Heath, what's going on?" Before Heath could leave, Officer Jenny arrived riding her Arcanine. Officer Jenny's Arcanine was smaller than Officer Jenny's Arcanine, which was simply a matter of training. However, Officer Jenny's Arcanine was still quite strong, but unfortunately, it didn't have many opportunities to show its abilities.

To be precise, the N.J.s in Changqing City haven't had much of a chance to perform. The last time the Changqing City chemical plant had a problem, that was when the N.J.s were quite busy. Many times, the N.J.s in Changqing City acted as firefighters.

"Sister Ling, a Steelix just chased after a Diglett." Heath shrugged. What could he do? Steelix was quite strong, and it looked like it was still angry. It was an enraged wild Pokémon. Unless you could subdue it instantly, it was best not to bother it. That was common sense.

This brings us to Lance's dark history. According to a Ms. Kiku who wished to remain anonymous, when Lance was young, he once insisted on interfering in the family dispute of a Dragonite couple because he was a member of the Dragonite family. As a result, Lance was chased by the enraged female Dragonite all the way from the Indigo League to Viridian City. If it weren't for Officer Jenny from Viridian City intervening, Lance would probably have been chased all the way to Pewter City.

Therefore, in the Pokémon League, in terms of sheer strength, Lance is the strongest. However, if we consider seniority, then Agatha Christie is the strongest. Her advanced age has given her a long life experience and knowledge, allowing her to know a lot of inside information.

"Steelcore? This is really rare. This kind of Pokémon is rarely seen in the wild. I've reported this to the Ministry of Transportation. You can go around it from the side." Officer Jenny looked at the cave in front of her. Steelix's huge body made a very large hole, which was easy to recognize at a glance.

However, the cement here is no longer usable and needs to be repaired. In addition, the material bricks used to repel wild Pokémon need to be reinstalled.

That thing can drive away most wild Pokémon with normal brains, but it's useless against those enraged wild Pokémon.

Heath nodded with a smile, then planned to go back to the dining car and continue setting up his stall, but before Heath could drive off, Officer Jenny came over.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. The president of the Psyduck Merchant Guild is coming today. I heard he'll be bringing some unique products that are only available in other regions. You can go and take a look if you're interested." Officer Jenny said to Heath. Heath was taken aback for a moment, then nodded happily. This was truly good news.

The Psyduck Trading Company is the same company that sponsored yesterday's anime convention. Its president, Psyduck, is quite an anomaly in the Pokémon world. Heath had heard many stories about President Psyduck, but he never expected to run into the Psyduck Trading Company here. However, the local specialties offered by the Psyduck Trading Company were something that Heath really cared about.

The Kanto region is somewhat different from other regions, so some of the unique ingredients found in other regions are not available in Kanto. Heath heard that the region that recently joined the Pokémon League has some very unique berries and some unusual foods.

“The Psyduck Merchant Guild, we can go check it out sometime.” Heath stroked his chin, thinking it was a good idea.

After a brief hiccup, Heath drove his food truck to his usual spot, but as soon as he parked, he found that there were already customers in front of his truck.

"Mr. Fujiyama? You're here so early again." Heath looked at Mr. Fujiyama with a smile. If it was Mr. Fujiyama, it didn't seem strange at all. After all, Mr. Fujiyama was a well-known fitness enthusiast. He was either in the fitness world or on his way to the fitness world every day.

"Haha, I was so excited today that I couldn't sleep, so I got up early." Mr. Fujiyama's muscles twitched as he laughed, and Heath smacked his lips.

While moderate exercise can attract the opposite sex, excessive exercise can attract the same sex. Many guys think that as long as they build up muscles, they can make beautiful women shout "I'm in!" But in reality, the prerequisite for making beautiful women shout "I'm in!" is that they also need to be good-looking. It's like how Daniel Wu's muscles look very attractive, but what if it were Zhao Si?

Therefore, Heath's training requirements are simply to follow those of Officer Jenny; he doesn't need such exaggerated pectoral muscles.

"Has something good happened?" Heath looked at Mr. Fujiyama curiously. He wanted to experience this feeling too. In his previous life, Heath would occasionally buy a lottery ticket on a whim and then take a nap, but he never won. However, he could understand the excitement.

"It's nothing much, I just pre-ordered a Pokémon egg from a new region from the Psyduck Trading Company. They'll bring it over when they come today. I'm so excited about having a new Pokémon companion." Mr. Fujiyama smiled smugly. Hiss was taken aback. A Pokémon egg from a new region?

Pokémon games are not allowed to be traded for money, but Pokémon eggs are allowed to be traded, specifically Pokémon eggs that have been certified by the Pokémon League.

"What Pokémon is it?" Heath asked curiously, as he hadn't been to that new region yet.

"It's a Grass-type Pokémon called Leafcat, a pretty nice name." Mr. Fujiyama chuckled, while Hiss's expression turned strange. Leafcat and Mr. Fujiyama together instantly reminded Hiss of Litten from the Alola region. That little guy was also very cute at first, but unfortunately it evolved.

Chapter 294 Instant Coffee

Heath stroked his chin thoughtfully. He'd heard of Newleaf Meowth. It was a Pokémon from the newest region to join the League, and was said to be the type of Pokémon that would be perfect for a new trainer to use as their starter Pokémon, with a status somewhat similar to Bulbasaur from the Kanto region.

However, it seems to be much more popular than Bulbasaur. Heath thinks that the other cat's design is a big plus for it.

To be honest, Bulbasaur is really unfortunate. Despite being one of the Grass-type starter Pokémon, its popularity can't compare to Charmander and Squirtle. Every year, the Pokémon survey released by the League shows that Bulbasaur has the lowest adoption rate among the starter Pokémon.

Bulbasaur's position is somewhat awkward, but in fact, Bulbasaur's strength is quite good; it's just that not many trainers know how to use it effectively.

If those tacticians from the past were to transmigrate here, just one Grass-type Pokémon would be enough for them to develop countless dirty tactics.

"Mr. Fujiyama, what would you like to eat?" Heath asked with a smile. Although Mr. Fujiyama was clearly excited, he still had to eat. Skipping meals could easily lead to gallstones and other diseases, a finding from the Joey family's research.

In addition to treating Pokémon, the Nurse Joy family also serves as human doctors. Their journal, the League of Medicine, has an impact factor of 73 and is recognized as an authoritative medical journal. Ms. Jessie once complained that doctoral dissertations at her academy were required to have an impact factor of at least 5.

It was truly tragic. Heath, who didn't study medicine, was completely unaware of these things. Fortunately, although Miss Musashi was expelled, she still knew something about medical school.

"Hmm... How about a cup of coffee for me today? Do you have coffee here?" Mr. Fujiyama hesitated for a moment before asking. Heath was taken aback; he really hadn't expected Mr. Fujiyama to want to order coffee from him. This was quite a strange thing.

However, Heath does have it here.

“I have some instant coffee here… want some?” Heath pulled out a small bag. It was a Cosmos coffee, which wasn’t particularly popular among instant coffees, but it was available almost everywhere. Compared to other instant coffees, Cosmos coffee was more affordable, costing 1.50 Union Coins per bag.

Their main slogan is "Delicious coffee at a low price".

“Kanglong…” Mr. Fujiyama hesitated for a moment. He usually drank his own hand-drip coffee, but he also knew a bit about instant coffee. He had to admit that although these instant coffees were not as good as his own coffee, they were indeed stronger in the market.

In the end, Mr. Fujiyama opted for a packet of Dragon instant coffee, along with a chicken breast sandwich, which Heath had recommended to him.

"You should have bought a pack of Phoenix Coffee; that stuff tastes better." Mr. Fujiyama rested his chin on his hand, patiently waiting for Heath to make the sandwich. The instant coffee was already brewed, but the chicken breast sandwich would take a while, since Mr. Fujiyama had high standards.

"That stuff is very expensive." Heath shrugged helplessly. It was Ho-Oh instant coffee. He didn't know if they had paid Ho-Oh royalties, but the price and reputation of Ho-Oh coffee were indeed very high. One packet cost twenty Alliance Coins, and the amount of coffee made was the same as that of Kangaskhan coffee.

“That’s true, one pack of Phoenix King is about enough to buy…” Mr. Fujigami hesitated for a moment, seemingly doing mental calculations.

"Around thirteen packs." Heath sighed. People in the Pokémon world aren't very good at math and especially like using calculators. That's how Heath was when he went to the supermarket. Heath thought that maybe he could try to promote the multiplication table in the future and maybe even get the title of educator.

“Ahem, yes, thirteen packs. But it seems that Kangaskhan Coffee is also launching its own high-end brand, called Super Kangaskhan Coffee.” Mr. Fujiyama coughed awkwardly twice, and Heath smiled.

However, upon hearing the name Mega Kangaskhan, Heath couldn't help but gasp. Mega Kangaskhan was simply disgusting in battle, forcing a two-on-one situation. Fortunately, this was reality, so it should be a little better.

While Heath and Mr. Fujiyama were talking, a series of large trucks sped past on the quiet streets of Evergreen City. Heath had good eyesight; he could see the Psyduck Company logo printed on these trucks. Mr. Fujiyama's eyes widened in surprise.

Heath thought Mr. Fujiyama was probably trying to awaken his superpowers and then check where his Pokémon egg was.

However, right after those passing trucks, a very low-key car appeared. It was all black, but the four Officer Jennys on motorcycles escorting it made Heath realize that this person was no ordinary person. This must be the president of the Psyduck Merchant Guild, right?

Heath could even see the team leader, Officer Safran, observing the surroundings with a serious and focused expression. When she saw Heath, she only paused for a moment before continuing to look at other places.

Heath had no intention of disturbing them, and waved with a smile before continuing to make her chicken breast sandwich.

Making bland chicken breast taste delicious is a complicated task, but fortunately, Heath has gained experience cooking for Mr. Fujiyama, so it's not too difficult for her now.

"Your cooking skills are getting better and better." Mr. Fujiyama smelled the aroma in the air, his gaze lingering on the spot where the truck had left. The Psyduck Merchant Guild was gone, and there was no cliché scene of the guild leader being attracted by the delicious food to come and eat. Heath was a little disappointed.

"It's alright, but you can tell Mr. Fujiyama is really excited." Heath smiled. Mr. Fujiyama's eyes were practically glued to the truck, which was quite surprising.

But for Mr. Fujiyama, this seems perfectly normal, since he has always been like this.

"Do you want to go and take a look at the Psyduck Merchant Guild's venue?" Mr. Fujiyama took his sandwich, took a bite, and asked vaguely.

Heath nodded. The Psyduck Merchant Guild would bring specialty products from different alliance regions, and Heath planned to go and take a look. It should be quite interesting, and who knows, it might even broaden his culinary knowledge.

"Hehe, I'll show you my new Leaf Cat tomorrow." Mr. Fujiyama grinned like a pervert. Heath glanced at Mr. Fujiyama and thought, "Hopeless. Mr. Fujiyama is definitely a cat lover. Didn't he see that Machamp is unhappy?" It seems that the fight between Mr. Fujiyama and Machamp later will be very exciting.

Pokémon can get jealous too, after all, these clever little guys are much smarter than the pets from my previous life.

Chapter 295 Strange and Unusual Ingredients

"Oh, it's been a long time, Heath. It's such a happy thing to see you in the morning." Mr. Yaning stood in front of Heath with dark circles under his eyes and a tired look on his face. Heath looked at Mr. Yaning in surprise. How come Mr. Yaning looked decades older in such a short time?

“Mr. Yaning…you need to be moderate.” Heath looked at Mr. Yaning with a troubled expression. He remembered that Mr. Yaning had previously experienced a calamity for men. As the saying goes, men are proactive before marriage and passive after marriage. Mr. Yaning’s wife wanted to have another child, which made Mr. Yaning very busy.

But I never expected that I would be working so hard until now.

“What are you thinking? My wife is pregnant. I just feel… sigh…” Mr. Yaning sighed again. Heath’s lips twitched. Heath almost broke the pancake batter with that sigh.

“I just think that taking care of children is really not an easy thing.” Mr. Yaning finished what he hadn’t said earlier. Heath was stunned for a moment. Taking care of children?

Could it be that you super evergreens have finally stopped pretending? You've completely broken free of the ten-month restriction and are now living the ideal life of giving birth immediately after only one month of pregnancy?

“I enrolled in a new dad training course recently, and then I got sprayed while changing my child’s diaper…” Mr. Yaning didn’t notice the strange expression in Heath’s eyes. He was still talking, but Heath stopped him. He didn’t want to hear what was coming next at all.

The word "diaper" combined with the word "spray" was enough to conjure up some disgusting images for Heath.

“Mr. Yaning, I remember you should already have a child, right? Why are you still registering?” Heath looked at Mr. Yaning helplessly. This was a breakfast stall, and there were still customers waiting. Didn’t he want to let others eat in peace?

Didn't you see that the girl behind Mr. Yang Ning in line started giving him a rather unfriendly look?

"Of course I did, but I was very busy at that time, so my wife took care of the children." Mr. Yaning chuckled and scratched his head, then took the jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) that Heath handed him, paid for it, exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then quickly left.

Everyone has to go to work; blocking others from buying breakfast will get you yelled at.

Heath's return brought him a large number of repeat customers. Perhaps this is what they mean by absence makes the heart grow fonder. Business was much better than before. However, Heath did not intend to stay for more than a few days. He still had to complete the Golden Finger's mission and learn about the local delicacies of other places.

Moreover, Heath is still very young and doesn't need to consider settling down yet. Even if he travels all over the Kanto Alliance, Heath will only be around twenty years old, so he's not in a hurry.

The morning rush hour gradually subsided after the start of the workday, and Heath finally had time to clean up the tables, chairs, and trash on the ground outside. Although Evergreen City is a big city, people in big cities also litter and spit everywhere. Fortunately, this didn't happen here, although there were a lot of trash bags, which Heath had to clean up every day.

"Tsk tsk, how come this place is so dirty and messy?" A familiar voice rang out. Heath picked up the trash bag from the ground and put it into his large pocket. Then he looked up and saw it was Ho-Oh.

"Good morning! Would you like something to eat?" Heath was somewhat delighted. Could it be that her mission was about to be completed? She just didn't know if Ho-Oh's satisfaction counted in the mission.

"Hmph, fool... cough cough, I brought something super, super troublesome today!" Phoenix said smugly, then she took out a bag and put it on Heath's cart. Heath walked over in confusion, opened the bag and took a look.

It seemed to be a flower, very white, with a very peculiar smell. Heath frowned involuntarily. This thing smelled like a mixture of durian, heather, and snail rice noodles. Every bite was the taste of life's inheritance, making Heath involuntarily cover his nose.

"You're planning to eat this?" Heath looked at Ho-Oh with a strange expression. This thing smelled irresistible, and he didn't know what Ho-Oh was thinking.

"Of course not! Please take a look below!" Ho-Oh's eyes widened, and only then did Heath notice some strangely shaped white cylindrical insects beneath these white flowers.

These things looked somewhat like weevils, but after taking them out, Heath discovered that these little creatures not only didn't smell bad at all, but also had a faint fragrance, a very light floral scent, somewhat like jasmine.

"You want to eat these?" Heath looked at the insects in his hand, exactly ten of them.

"Hmm~ You can't cook this, can you~" Ho-Oh said smugly. Heath laughed. What a joke! Even if Heath really couldn't cook it, he had a cheat code. He could just use the ingredient detector to take a look and he would know. However, Heath didn't think it was necessary to use it. After all, cooking insects was nothing special.

In his previous life, Yunnan Province in China had a very distinctive insect banquet, featuring all kinds of insects that could be made into various dishes. Heath had also tried it. To be honest, if you ignore their bizarre appearance, the insect banquet was quite delicious. However, people with high protein allergies couldn't eat it, since insects are considered high-protein and taste like chicken.

"Okay, just a moment." Heath was very calm. He had even drunk bee wine when he traveled to Yunnan Province.

It's a bee, not a madman, that's important.

Bee wine, as the name suggests, is made by soaking wasps or similar insects in alcohol to make a wine. It is said that drinking it can relieve rheumatism and has some therapeutic effects. However, Heath is not a doctor and does not know much about these things, but the taste is indeed very strange. After drinking it, he felt a tingling sensation all over his body, as if an electric current was shooting up from under his spine.

Besides that, Heath also really likes fried spiders. The abdomen of fried spiders has a very subtle texture. When you bite into it, it's soft and fluffy, like eating a fried soft apple. It's a very unique taste. Of course, there are also roasted scorpions, bee roe salad, and so on.

Heath knew exactly what these insects could be used for at a glance. Fried insects were a delicacy; after frying them, sprinkle some chili powder on them, and they became a dish. The taste was quite good. However, Heath didn't eat them, as they looked a bit awkward. He preferred fried grasshoppers.

"You can do that?" Ho-Oh looked shocked. People in the Pokémon world don't have the habit of eating insects.

“Of course, just wait a moment.” Heath nodded smugly.

Chapter 296 Please Open Your Eyes

Deep-fried insects may look disgusting, but they actually taste quite good. However, you need to overcome your psychological barrier. Otherwise, how can you eat them if you can't even put your mouth to it? So when Heath ate deep-fried insects for the first time, the other party deliberately found some that were not easy to identify and did not tell the guests what they were eating until they had eaten enough.

Although some people still couldn't accept it and ended up vomiting, at least they managed to swallow it.

However, looking at the writhing, motionless worms in the fryer, Heath decided to wash the pot properly later. Luckily, there were no other guests at the moment, otherwise Heath felt that he probably wouldn't be able to entertain them. Just the sight of frying worms in the fryer would be enough to make some guests with a phobia of germs refuse this unique delicacy.

"Hmph, do you really think it's edible to deep-fry this?" Phoenix King pretended to look at the other side with disdain, but the corner of her eye betrayed her true thoughts. This guy probably wanted to eat it terribly.
