Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Chapter 373 The nursery is really too expensive.

Three days before the Spring Festival.

Shuangye Town.

"Xiao Shui, what should we do now? It's eaten all the food around here."

Officer Jenny hurried into the Pokémon Center, looked at her best friend, and said...

Nurse Joy had just finished bandaging the wounds of a somewhat chubby Pokémon. Looking at Officer Jenny, she asked, "Did it do anything else after eating?"

Miss Officer Jenny shook her head. "No, she's just lying there sleeping, and I can't wake her up."

"Maybe it's just hungry? It might leave on its own once it wakes up."

"It has eaten all the food around it, and the other Pokémon have protested."

Miss Officer Jenny said wearily, "Ever since it came over last night, it has been sleeping the whole time. After waking up, it has been eating the whole time. It has already eaten three meals and still hasn't left."

Miss Joy patted the teddy bear that was snuggling up to it, then looked at her best friend and said, "Let's go take a look."

Miss Officer Jenny nodded, and after Miss Joy finished packing her things, she led her out of the Pokémon Center.

The chubby bear behind him glanced at his grandfather. Grandpa Yuba hesitated for a moment, then followed with the overly round chubby bear.

Nurse Joy followed Officer Jenny to the scene and immediately saw a Pokémon lying in the middle of the road, fast asleep.

"So that's what it was—"

Miss Joey suddenly realized, "No wonder he's so greedy."

She looked at Officer Jenny beside her and asked, "Why not try moving it to a safe place so it can continue sleeping?"

"I tried it. After it woke up and ate its food, it went back to sleeping in the middle of the road."

"Hmm—this is really a headache. Should we see if any trainers are willing to capture it?"

"I've asked around, and many trainers who came over were scared away when they saw how much it ate. Who could afford to raise it? Look around, all the berries have been picked and eaten. Many wild Pokémon are protesting."

Miss Joey looked around and found that the trees that were originally full of fruit were now empty, with only a few fruits hanging on them.

"Let's try driving it away?"

"Don't let its gluttony and love of sleep fool you; it's actually quite powerful. Arcanine's attacks are like a tickle to it."

While Officer Jenny was speaking, the Pokémon woke up. It scratched its belly, which rumbled, got up, looked around, and started looking for food. After finishing the remaining berries, it turned its attention to other places and slowly walked over.

A mongoose slash appeared from the forest; I stared at it.

It stopped, hesitated for a moment, turned around, and went to another spot.

"If this continues, it won't be long before it eats all the food in the surrounding area."

Miss Officer Jenny spoke up.

Miss Joey is thinking of a solution.

"One?"

Do you want me to help you beat it up?

Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy turned their heads at the same time and found that it was the round, cuddly bear that had just received treatment at the Pokémon Center.

At this moment, Circle Bear was looking at Miss Officer Jenny and Miss Joey and asked a question.

Grandpa Yuba followed behind.

Grandpa Yuba patted Bear and then looked at Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy, saying, "Actually, for this kind of problem, you should ask Fang Yan. He probably has a better solution for Pokémon-related issues."

"That's true."

Officer Jenny nodded, then mounted her Arcanine and headed towards the breeding house.

Grandpa Yuba and Nurse Joy stayed behind to observe the Pokémon as they ate.

Fang Yan dismounted from the back of the Nine-Tailed Fox and was immediately drawn to the round, cuddly bear. He walked over to the bear and patted its belly.

"Speaking of Circle Bear, don't other bears usually lose weight during hibernation? How come you've gotten even rounder?"

My stomach feels bloated.

Circle Bear scratched the back of its head sheepishly.

"One one one one".

Hehe, Grandpa prepared lots of delicious food for me during the winter.

I did a quick check on Quan Quan Xiong's physical condition. All his physical indicators were good, but he was just too robust.

"Grandpa Yuba, I suggest you control the amount of food the teddy bear eats. Aren't you afraid it will eat you out of house and home?"

Fang Yan helplessly offered his suggestion to Grandpa Yongchang.

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely pay attention, hehe."

Fang Yan rolled her eyes at Yuba's answer.

Well, that's like saying nothing at all.

Then Fang Yan looked at the gluttonous and sleepy Pokémon that Officer Jenny had told him about.

Fang Yan was speechless as he looked at the Pokémon lying on the ground fast asleep again.

"Oh, it was you!"

I always feel a little uneasy when I hear dialects.

The Pokémon that is fast asleep has dark blue skin, white skin under its head, belly and feet, two big ears on its head that stand up high, big eyes but small pupils, two small sharp teeth in its big mouth below its eyes, and three nails on its feet hidden under its long fur.

The biggest eater in the Pokémon world.

The nightmare of the Orange Islands.

Snorlax.

"Where did this little Snorlax come from?"

He asked in a dialect.

"I don't know. It appeared here one night two days ago. Seeing that there was plenty of food, it simply decided to stay here. It sleeps, eats, and sleeps again after it's full."

Officer Jenny said, "I tried having Arcanine chase it away, but the Flamethrower felt like a tickle to it."

"If that's the case, then it should be a Munchlax with the Thick Fat ability, as its Ice and Fire-type moves are halved in power."

I made a guess based on the dialect.

"However, we should first determine why it came here."

After speaking in dialect, he focused intently on the little Snorlax, who was sprawled out and fast asleep.

【Snorlax】

Gender: Male

【Attribute: Normal】

[Characteristics: thick fat]

[Introduction: Because its birthplace could not support itself and its brothers and sisters, it chose to leave and find a place where it could survive. It traveled from the northernmost part of the Sinnoh region all the way to the southern part of the Sinnoh region. Along the way, it ate all kinds of food, whether it was fresh and juicy berries, leftovers piled up as fertilizer, or even rotten food. It ate them all without any concern. This resulted in it having an iron stomach and developing a particularly good appetite. Its appetite was much greater than that of other Munchlax.]

dialect:----

"It was probably looking for a place to live where it could get enough to eat. Food was plentiful near Futaba Town, so it set its sights on this place."

He spoke in a dialect.

"It's fine for it to stay here; it hasn't harmed any passersby or Pokémon in the past two days."

Officer Jenny spoke up, "But the problem now is that at this rate, the food around here will probably be gone very quickly, and other wild Pokémon also need this food to survive."

It can eat so much! One of its Pokémon devoured enough food in two days to sustain many other Pokémon for over ten days.

If it's allowed to eat indiscriminately here, there will probably be no food left around soon.

This makes it an easy target for other wild Pokémon, making it vulnerable to attacks from them.

"Um, dialect—"

"I refuse."

Before Miss Joey could finish speaking, Fang Yan rejected her without any politeness.

"I haven't even said what it is, and you've already rejected me?"

Miss Joey stared at Fang Yan and pouted.

"I guess Little Water wants me to take it back to the nursery, right?"

"hey-hey."

Miss Joey laughed shyly when Fang Yan guessed her thoughts.

Fang Yan shook his head without hesitation, "No, the nursery refuses to take it back."

Why?

Looking at the sleeping Snorlax, Fang Yan said, "The nursery can't afford to keep it anymore—"

"Now, the two giants, Mighty and Mighty, in the nursery eat five meals a day. Every time they eat, Gengar gets lured in and joins them. Rhyperior and the Lapras siblings also have a particularly good appetite. Mount Goat and Miltank are fine; they can eat the hay from the nursery from now on. But little Shana, her appetite has been getting better and better lately too."

"And there's Ninetales, Miss Skirt, and the others. Oh, and that shameless Pokémon from Ash Town often comes over to freeload and eat."

"We can't afford to raise them anymore, sisters."

Fang Yan's heart was filled with tears.

Snapped!

Nine-Tailed Fox lashed out at Fang Yan's back with its tail, glaring at him angrily.

"call out!"

You think I ate too much?!

Dialect: -- We're doomed!

(A)

Fang Yan quickly comforted Jiuwei.

"No, that's not true. What I mean is, being able to eat is a blessing, being able to eat is a blessing. I'm so happy to see your appetites getting better and better."

"call out?"

Really?

"real."

"Then take the little Snorlax back with you."

"Of course—no!"

Fang Yan looked at Miss Joey and said, "Sister Xiao Shui, you're so mean, you almost dragged me in."

Miss Joey, realizing her intentions had been exposed, gave an embarrassed chuckle.

"So what do we do now? Send it to a place where there's plenty of food?"

Miss Joey asked.

"This is the only way."

He nodded in agreement.

"Fang Yan, why don't you take it back to the breeding center and see if any trainer will come and take it away?"

"I refuse—"

"Anyway, in the next few days, a lot of people who are planning to travel will go to the breeding center to buy Pokémon eggs or adopt Pokémon. I'll ask the League to give you a batch of Pokémon eggs for free, how about forty? Then I'll talk to Sandstone Town and see if Professor Yamanashi has any rarer Pokémon eggs, and ask your breeding center to sell them as well."

"Of course, no problem."

Fang Yan agreed without hesitation after hearing what Miss Officer Jenny said.

"No problem at all. I can afford to raise both of them, so how could I not afford to raise one little Snorlax? I can raise two without any problem."

Fang Yan's face was beaming with smiles.

Joey: ————

Grandpa Yuba: ————

Officer Jenny: ————I knew it.

Nine-Tailed Fox: (Rolls eyes)

Gengar: ————

Gengar: "Kouhachi"

His initial arrogance followed by his later obsequiousness is laughable.

"Fang Yan, that's not what you just said."

Hearing Nurse Joy's words, Fang Yan looked at Gengar and said, "Gengar, didn't I just say that?"

Gengar shook its head.

"口桀一"

No, isn't that how it is all?

Miss Joey: "I'm really impressed by you guys."

Grandpa Yuba burst into laughter.

"How do I wake it up now? Let it come back to the nursery with you."

Hearing Officer Jenny's question, Fang Yan snapped his fingers, "Gengar."

Gengar pulled out a sweet jar.

Circle Bear: I want to eat ————

Gengar took out another jar and handed it to Ursaring.

Circle Bear immediately looked at Fang Yan.

The dialect just said to let it eat less.

"Eat up, it's alright."

Fang Yan patted its belly again and said with a smile.

It feels pretty good.

The Circly Bear opened the sweet lid, and a sweet fragrance immediately wafted out. The little Snorlax, who was lying on the ground in the distance and fast asleep, sniffed and drooled involuntarily. It opened its eyes, looked over following the fragrance, and found Fang Yan and the others. Then it looked at the Circly Bear, and the fragrance seemed to be coming from the jar in its hand.

It stood up, hesitated for a moment, and then walked up to the circle bear.

Um, could I have some?

Snorlax pointed at the Sweetie in Ursaring's hand and cautiously asked Ursaring a question.

The cuddly bear was eating something sweet with its paws. It was about to share it with little Kabi when it remembered something and looked at Fangyan.

"There's some more here, do you want it?"

When the little Snorlax heard Fang Yan's words, it looked at Fang Yan and noticed that the Gengar next to Fang Yan was holding a jar that looked exactly like the one that Ursaring was holding.

Snorlax: I want to eat—

It nodded and reached out to tug at Fang Yan's pants.

"Card----"

Can I have some? I really want some!

Fang Yan squatted down and rubbed its head. It felt quite nice to the touch, but it had a slight odor.

He frowned, reached out and touched the little Snorlax's fur, and found some rotten berries.

Miss Officer Jenny, Miss Joy, Nine-Tailed Fox immediately distanced herself from the dialect.

dialect:----

"Card."

The little Snorlax scratched its head and smiled sheepishly.

I remember now, this is what I wanted to save for later, I forgot about it.

Fangyan threw away the rotten fruit, then took the tissue Gengar handed him, wiped his hands, and asked Gengar to give him the sweet treat.

The little Munchlax couldn't wait to open the lid, smelling the sweet aroma specially made by the Queen Bee. It opened its mouth, held the jar to its mouth, turned it upside down, and all the sweetness flowed into the little Munchlax's mouth.

"Card----"

It's delicious.

Fang Yan patted its little head and said, "How about it? Do you want to come back to the nursery with me?"

"Card?"

Breeding house?

"Yes, there are lots of Pokémon there. You can play with them, and of course, there will be lots of delicious food, so you'll never have to worry about going hungry again."

"Card----"

Delicious————

The little Snorlax swallowed hard, then draped its entire body over Fang Yan's lap.

"Card."

I want to eat, I want to go to the nursery.

Fang Yan thought for a moment, then looked at the little Snorlax with a smile.

When Nine-Tails saw that smile, he shook his head.

Another Pokémon is about to fall for it.

"Snorlax, the food at the nursery is delicious! There's Bee Queen's special sweet treat, Momona and Gothic Lady's delicious food, and Alcremie's carefully crafted desserts—"

The little Snorlax's drool soaked Fang Yan's trouser leg.

"But Munchlax, you also need to work while eating at the nursery."

"Card?"

工—work?

"Yes."

"Card!"

Work! I have the energy! Work! Eat!

Fang Yan squatted down contentedly, "What a great little Snorlax."

After saying that, he was about to pick up the little Snorlax.

Fang Yan stood up without changing his expression, then looked at the little Snorlax hanging on his lap, "Alright, let's go back to the nursery together."

Why is Snorlax so heavy?

And so, the nursery welcomed another one—

Big eater —
