Chapter 236 Gardevoir
Her smooth blue hair fell over her shoulders, her arms changed from white to blue, and her upper body looked like she was wearing a blue long-sleeved shirt. The orange structure on her chest and back was slightly raised at the front, forming a heart-like structure. Her loose and flowing white skirt covered her slender legs, making people sigh that this was the epitome of a graceful lady.
Wei Xin turned his head and saw a fair face behind him, with amber eyes blinking, looking at him with a smug expression.
gaze.
She playfully reached out and pinched Wei Xin's cheek, just as her trainer had done to her before.
"It actually evolved directly?" Wei Xin grabbed Gardevoir's hand, supported her waist, and pulled her into his arms. Under Wei Xin's gaze, Gardevoir's face turned red, and she shyly covered her eyes, struggling to get out of Wei Xin's arms.
You little brat, you dare mess with me!
"She's so beautiful!" Korne exclaimed. "And she's so tall too."
A typical Gardevoir should be around 1.6 meters tall, about the same height as her, but the Gardevoir in front of her was half a head taller than Wei Xin, and looked to be close to two meters tall, and was also a whole size larger.
"It should be because it has good nutrition and has gone through a relatively complete breeding cycle," Wanlong said. "Pokémon that evolve too early due to insufficient breeding cycle will be relatively smaller than their peers, but Gardevoir that has grown to this size—Wei Xin's one—should be considered an extremely special case."
Even the Gardevoir in Karni's hands, hailed as the world's strongest, was only a few centimeters taller than its kind.
"Congratulations, Gardevoir!" Diancie lifted her air skirt to offer her sincere congratulations. Gardevoir bowed in return, and the two smiled at each other. Sylveon jumped out, and after a careful look, felt like the sky was about to fall.
Could it be that Kirlia sensed Diancie's threat and chose to evolve directly? How despicable!
First it was Diancie, the Jewel Princess, then Gardevoir, the Pokémon that's been through a lot. Her own ranking in terms of looks and status at home is probably going to drop out of the top three. Why can't she evolve a level higher? — Sylveon is suffering, but she won't say a word.
"Everyone, let's leave the mine first." Wei Xin looked away from Gardevoir and instructed, "There are too many small diamonds, so let's find a temporary mine to rest in. Diancie and I will come back to pick you up after we find a suitable place to stay."
"Okay!" Tianxi readily accepted. Wei Xin placed them in the cave where Bangiras used to live. Afterward, the group headed towards the land along the way. Wei Xin also made some marks along the way to facilitate the exploration team from Donghuang to come in and investigate.
After about a day and a half, the group finally approached the ground. Wei Xin gave everyone a pair of sunglasses to prevent the strong light changes from harming their eyes. Ke Erni couldn't help but marvel at how thorough Wei Xin's preparations were.
Leaving the mine, the bright sunlight shone on everyone's faces. Everyone took a deep breath of the wild, free, and fresh air, feeling as if they had been transported to another world, even though they had only been in the mine for a little over a week.
"What's the next step?" Wanlong asked with a yawn.
"First, everyone should go to the hospital for a full check-up, and then—go home."
As Wei Xin was speaking, he felt someone tugging at his trouser leg. He turned around and saw a little guy pointing to the other side. Wei Xin turned to look and saw the giant blacksmith, carrying a huge hammer, being pushed by his companions as he awkwardly walked up to Wei Xin.
"What...you're planning to let me take the Great Blacksmith away?"
In the next mine, they harvested Taleborg, Diancie, and a group of small diamonds, found the Great Zero Mine, Kirlia evolved into Gardevoir, and also caught Giant Blacksmith—Wei Xin's harvest on this trip was even greater than the Hoenn event. The last time he expanded his team so much was when Hunter J delivered the package.
"Tooth!" Tooth and his companions nodded.
"Master blacksmith, what's your opinion?" Wei Xin asked with a smile.
"Meow!" The Great Blacksmith nodded. From now on, Tooth and the others would live with the Little Diamonds until they were able to protect themselves.
She can now go on adventures.
"Well then, welcome to this family." Wei Xin rummaged through his backpack, selected the Sweet Ball, a girly pink one, and placed it on the ground.
The skilled blacksmith, facing the sweet ball, swung his hammer without a word and struck hard—
"Hey!" Wei Xin exclaimed. "Big Fool Chun, what are you doing?" The Great Blacksmith smiled mischievously, gently pressing the hammer against the Sweet Ball, which turned into a red light and entered it.
"Naughty little guy." Wei Xin hung the Great Blacksmith's Poké Ball on his waist.
"Gardevoir, Sylveon, Diancie, Togepi, Greatsmith, and Mimikyu." Korrina listed the Pokémon Wei Xin possessed. "Could Mr. Wei Xin be a Fairy-type trainer specializing in this type?"
A person's energy and knowledge are limited, and the result of doing many things without mastering any is usually mediocrity. Therefore, many experienced trainers choose to specialize in the Pokémon types they like or are good at, and there are also trainers like her who, as gym heirs, choose elite education.
"That's a good suggestion," Wanlong said. "I remember that Donghuang doesn't have a Fairy-type Gym Leader yet. Weixin, would you like to consider it?"
Because of its vast territory and large population, the Eastern League planned to establish 18 gyms with different types after promoting Pokémon battles. However, due to the scarcity of Fairy-type Pokémon and the fact that most Fairy-type Pokémon do not like to be near humans, they have not been able to find suitable candidates.
It has been said that suitable Pokémon and trainers attract each other, and Wei Xin's ability to assemble a complete and powerful Fairy-type team in a short period of time clearly shows that he has a talent for this.
"Let's forget about it," Wei Xin said, indicating his refusal. He didn't want to turn his hobby into a job.
Afterwards, everyone went to the hospital for a full check-up. Everyone was fine. Korni was relatively weak because she was trapped in the mine. Fortunately, as a fighter, her physique was far superior to that of ordinary people. She could be discharged after applying some medicine and replenishing her nutrition.
That's how it is for athletes; if they get injured, they can choose to breathe to replenish blood.
After handing Spinner and Emezio over to Miss Officer Selina and giving their statements, the group planned to rest for the night in Shanxi.
In the hotel, Wei Xin turned on his phone and found that many people had sent him messages. Mary, needless to say, sent him two messages a day without fail. After Wei Xin replied to the messages, she would reply even instantly, saying that she and Cai Dou were on a trip. Instead of choosing normal transportation, they chose to rent motorcycle lizards for a long-distance journey.
Along the way, they encountered a bandana-wearing thug who could Mega Evolve. After being defeated by Mary, he joined the team. Wei Xin had never seen him before. Unfortunately, Mary forgot to take a picture at the time, so they could only wait until Mary learned Mega Evolution.
There's also Lillie. When Wei Xin went down into the mine, Lillie left Jirachi Island and received a message from Wei Xin, knowing that he was going down into the mine. Even though Wanlong and Papa were with her, she was still worried and would send him a message every few days.
In the last two days, he even became somewhat anxious, worried that he might have encountered danger in the mine.
"I'm worried that I'll become a young widow at such a young age," Lillie complained.
"Ergui Peng? That's adorable—" Wei Xin spent quite a bit of time calming the little girl down: "Alright, I'm out safely now. How about I come to Fangyuan to keep you company in a few days?"
Wei Xin didn't find it annoying at all; on the contrary, he felt it was nice to be cared for and to have a relationship with someone. He even felt that the lividity had faded.
The two then chatted on the phone for quite a while. Lillie shared the development progress of Jirachi Island. After numerous procedures and contracts were signed, she immediately found someone to design and develop the island. With the help of the Gym Leader of Lavender City, Jirachi Island has established a basic power system, which allows for large-scale development.
Although the white-bearded old man from Zijing City was somewhat abstract and weak—Wei Xin hadn't even considered the lineup when he fought him back then—his talent in power and urban design was still outstanding.
Lillie also plans to develop and utilize the energy generated by the Haitian volcano, and for this purpose she has found a very professional doctor, but she has chosen to keep the identity of this doctor a secret.
The little girl actually has a secret she's hiding from me; it seems she needs to be interrogated. — Wei Xin then shared his experiences in the mine. Lillie developed a strong interest in Diancie, or rather, no girl could resist Diancie.
Just kidding, actually boys can't do it either.
"By the way, Lillie, is there a way to connect Jirachi Island to the underground?"
"You're planning to move the Diamond Scraps to the area beneath Jirachi Island? Theoretically, it's feasible. The Hoenn region is rich in natural resources, including plenty of underground minerals. Plus, there's a huge, natural underwater cave right next to Jirachi Island. If we can tunnel it deeper underground, it should be enough for the Diamond Scraps to live in."
"What do you think, Diancie?" Wei Xin looked at Diancie, who was curiously examining the items in the hotel. It was Diancie's first time leaving the underground world, and she was extremely interested in everything above ground.
"Absolutely, thank you for your trouble, Lord Lao Weixin and Lady Lillie," Tianxi said politely. "My people and I have the ability to alter the underground environment."
"Then it's settled! I'll send someone to arrange it tomorrow. You've really given me a huge project," Lillie said, yawning. "I'm not talking to you anymore. I have a ton of things to do tomorrow. Even Higana has been working non-stop these past few days. Remember to come see me early."
"I miss you," Lillie said softly. Wei Xin replied and then hung up the phone.
Wei Xin also yawned. The cave environment was terrible, and his sleep quality was poor. Even his boundless energy couldn't stop his physical exhaustion. So, he used his last bit of strength to charge Rotom, and his eyelids could no longer be controlled and drooped.
Before his sight disappeared, he saw Gardevoir and Sylveon jump out of their Poké Balls and gather around the bed with Diancie.
As his consciousness faded, he vaguely heard snickers coming from the room, one after another.
He had no idea what happened after that.
