Chapter 88 Take Me With You

The lights were still on in Gardevoir's styling shop at dusk.

Diancie, with a pink gem on her head, was curiously looking around at everything in the room.

Judging from its adorable and silly demeanor, it's probably the same one I saw at Mount Tsukimi.

"They've followed us all the way to Golden City."

Tianxi nodded.

The last time Ye Luo saw it was at the New Year's Eve celebration in Cerulean City. Ye Luo thought it had been taken away by its two companions.

They should at least return to the kingdom of tiny diamonds.

"But now I see it again," Ye Luo asked, puzzled.

"So what happened?"

"Chirp (slipped out)."

Even without the translation of "Friendship Bell," Ye Luo could tell what was going on from that cheerful sound.

It probably slipped out quietly when its companions weren't looking.

"But I'm still a little curious about how you found this place."

"Chirp."

I didn't understand that sentence, but Ye Luo had a Pokémon to help translate it.

[waveguide.]

Gardevoir translated the sentence using telepathy.

The falling leaves sensed something amiss.

"They can sense something from this far away using waveguides?"

Gardevoir answered his question.

[As I mentioned before, Ye Luo's waveguide is quite unique and not easily confused with others' waveguides. Moreover, each person's waveguide is inherently unique, and with practice, it's easy to distinguish. 1]

Ye Luo believes that what Gardevoir can do, other Pokémon may not be able to do.

Gardevoir can indeed use its psychic powers to locate objects with extremely high accuracy, but this is only possible if Gardevoir's psychic power is strong enough.

In contrast, Diancie isn't even a Psychic-type Pokémon, yet she possesses a certain degree of Aura Sensing, so she might actually have some talent.

Looking at Diancie in front of her, she wondered if it had run all the way from Cerulean City to Goldenrod City just to find her.

Ye Luo put on the translation earring and curiously took a cookie from Raya's hand.

"Tianci, let me ask you something: you came here just to find me?"

"Chirp?"

Diancie tilted her head, her comprehension of long sentences still a bit slow, and then nodded.

"Chirp (Take me with you)."

"what?"

Does it know what it's saying? It ran all the way from afar just to give itself to its trainer.

Tianxi took a bite of the cookie, and her eyes immediately lit up. She had never eaten such delicious food before.

"Chirp (I'm going with you)."

Ye Luo felt that this legendary Pokémon was a bit dull, but when he thought about it, he realized that it was originally just a small diamond that was accidentally modified by Team Rocket and mutated into Diancie. Even with the change in appearance, it was still a small diamond that could be found anywhere.

Without the passage of time, Pokémon tend to appear rather simple.

Pokémon can travel with humans for any reason, such as being given a piece of food.

It could be to become stronger together, or to see a wider world.

Ye Luo didn't really want to catch any new Pokémon, mainly because there were already enough family members, and too many Pokémon would be too much to take care of.

After finishing her cookie, Tianxi asked Raya for another one, clearly indicating that she didn't want to leave.

After receiving the cookie, Diancie happily jumped over and took half of it.

"Here you go."

Ye Luo hesitated a bit. This behavior has many different meanings in Pokémon, but for now, the meaning of "sharing food means becoming a companion" is actually more obvious.

After thinking it over, Ye Luo finally accepted the half cookie and asked.

"Are you really planning to come with me?"

"Chirp."

Tianxi smiled and nodded.

There's another problem with falling leaves.

"What about your companion?"

Although the two little diamonds seemed strict with Diancie, they were actually quite concerned about her safety.

After discovering that Diancie had run away in Tsukimi-yama, they went through mountains and rivers to come and bring her back.

When talking about her two little diamond companions, Diancie clearly turned her gaze away.

Clearly, it hadn't thought about that at all; it just ran away without considering what might happen to its companions.

"A couple of tiny diamonds might search the whole world for you, is that okay?"

"Chirp."

Tianxi actually shook herself and laughed as she called out.

"Chirp (This time I've eliminated the traces very cleanly, they won't be found)."

Specifically, Diancie has become more skilled at using her mental power, and can now conceal the mental fluctuations she emits. Having run this far, it's impossible for her companions to catch her.

"Chirp (They'll give up soon if they can't find me)."

"That's how certain Tianxi is," he said.

This Diancie seems a bit too willful; could her personality be considered stubborn?

Theoretically, Leaffall still has a way to send it back. Both Arcanine and Latias travel very fast between cities, covering a distance of only a few minutes. However...

"Fine, I'll take you in. You'll be my Pokémon from now on."

2

Considering how persistent it is, it would be too much trouble to send it back.

"Chirp (Nice to meet you!)"

Diancie jumped over happily, but the rocky body pressed against her was not comfortable at all, as if she had been hit by a stone.

Ye Luo picked up Diancie again and gave her a heads-up.

"However, now that you're my Pokémon, you'll have to listen to your trainer from now on. I have a job to assign you."

The next day, a new character appeared in Gardevoir's hair salon: a beautiful Pokémon with a pink gem on its head, working as a shop assistant.

Xiao Feng has an important date today and plans to get a beautiful haircut before the date, so she pushes open the door.

"Chirp (Welcome!)!"

As soon as you push open the door of the styling shop, a pink Pokémon dressed as a maid politely nods and greets the customer.

Xiao Feng was a little shocked when he saw the beautiful pink gemstone and couldn't help but speak. His Monini did the same.

"Oh, beautiful!! How can there be such a beautiful Pokémon in the world!"

"Chirp!"

The way the guest knelt down on one knee startled Tianxi, who looked at the owner inside the room, at a loss for what to do.

Since we cater to high-quality customers who are willing to spend money on styling and hairdressing, it's normal to have some customers with eccentric personalities among them.

However, they wouldn't do anything to harass the employees; they just behaved a little strangely.

In the world of Pokémon, those who excel in an industry tend to stand out from the crowd.

This will only allow Diancie to adjust to the work environment a little.

"Oh, boss, you're here too! Is this elegant new employee the greeter? She's absolutely amazing!!"

The fact that Xiao Sa would mix English into her spoken English left a deep impression on Ye Luo, and Xiao Sa was also a regular customer of this store.

He is half Unova, has shiny blond hair, and speaks in a strange way, but he's actually a nice person.

They can also do magic tricks.

Xiao Feng clenched his fist, then conjured a rose from his empty palm and gave it to Diancie.

She then sat down in the hair salon chair with an arrogant, self-assured dance-like gait.

"Please give me the perfect hairstyle, thank you, Lady."

Gardevoir wished she could knock this guest unconscious with a Thunder Punch right now, but she held back after thinking about it.

Work is work. Under the singing and playing of West Lion Hair, Xiao Feng listened to an impromptu opera and got a fashionable haircut while doing so. Perfect.

"I'll be back, Boss."

With a sarcastic flick of its fingers towards Leaffall's forehead, Little Sarcastic slid out as if sliding on the ground. Gardevoir sighed.

Every time I receive such an outspoken guest, I feel immense pressure. I need to take a good breather from the trainer later.

Diancie skipped over to Ye Luo, holding up the rose in her hand, unsure of what to do with it.

"It was a gift from a customer, so put it in a vase."

Ye Luo took the rose and put it in an empty vase. Xiao Feng always brought two roses, and he had prepared a vase in advance to hold them.
