Pokémon from Galar

Yuri, who was standing next to Mary, tugged at Mary's skirt and whispered:

"I thought Ultra Beasts were all the dangerous kind. I didn't expect there to be some that don't even require a battle."

"Well, Ultra Beasts are essentially Pokémon from other worlds. Suddenly arriving in a strange world where they can't communicate and don't know how to get back, they easily become aggressive. Plus, Ultra Beasts that can pass through Ultra Slots are generally very powerful..."

"Oh... I think I understand."

Yuri nodded, but her gaze towards the clown in front of her gradually changed. It was a Pokémon that was strong but didn't like to fight. Instead, it loved to perform, which made it easy for people to like it in many ways.

The group contacted the island's queen, Liz, and then met up near the Ruins of Life. As soon as Liz appeared, she boldly and curiously approached the clown with the head and began to examine him closely.

Liz has a high affinity for Pokémon and likes them quite a bit, so when she suddenly received a message from Mizuki saying that there was an Ultra Beast that wanted to settle in Alola, she was naturally very curious.

After looking around for a while, he realized there were people he was meeting for the first time there, so he turned back, coughed a little awkwardly, and then looked at Mary and Yuri.

“Ahem… Alola, I am Liz, the Queen of the Islands. You must be Marie and Yuri. I’ve heard Mizuki mention you before.”

"Alola, Miss Liz."

After exchanging greetings, and knowing the matter was serious, Miss Liz appeared quite reliable. She took the initiative to calm down the clown with the banged head, who didn't really need any comforting, and then led everyone into the Ruins of Life.

Tapu Lele is somewhat capricious, so Liz can't guarantee they'll see the Patronus. However, Bang-Headed Clown can stay with her for now and be taken care of.

The main reason is that Mizuki also has other Ultra Beasts to deal with, and she can't stay by their side all the time. Besides, they don't plan to let Bang Head Clown enter the Ultra Sphere.

However, before Miss Liz could lead everyone to the altar to pray, Tapu Lele took the initiative and flew out from somewhere, appearing in front of everyone.

"It really happened!!"

Yuri exclaimed softly, "This is the legendary guardian deity of Alola! To see it is such a huge stroke of luck!"

Tapu Lele, supporting its pink shell, smiled as it observed the humans and Pokémon who entered, before its gaze settled on Bombardier.

Bang-headed Clown bowed and then began gesturing wildly again, while Miss Liz and Mizuki added explanations from the side. Judging from Tapu Lele's sly smile, it seemed like things were going to work out.

For the Tapu family, who have been guardians for a very long time, whether a Pokémon or a human has malicious intent is very obvious, but she sensed considerable sincerity from Bombshell.

The island's queen, Ms. Liz, offered to take care of him, and Tapu Lele agreed almost without hesitation. Alola originally belonged to everyone, and there was no need for them to acknowledge him if he stayed there.

However, since humans had come specifically to ask for her opinion, Tapu Lele had no choice but to pretend to give permission.

Seeing that the matter was over, Mary took two steps forward, bent down, and offered a sincere thank you to Tapu Lele. Both the healing and the domineering aura were gifts from the Tapu family, so thanking them in person was not excessive.

Chapter 173 Hatching, the Ball-Ball Sea Lion and the Ice Six-Tailed

"I think we're almost done with the Ultra Beasts stuff. There should be one or two left. Thanks for your help, Mary."

After handing the clown with the banged head over to Miss Liz, Mizuki, walking back, suddenly started a conversation.

Upon hearing this, Mary paused for a moment before realizing what it meant, then looked over curiously.

"Huh? How was this determined?"

"Didn't I mention that when Lillie's mother opened the Ultra Slug, about ten Ultra Beasts came out of Alola? That number is certain."

"...This is the first time I've heard of it."

Mary always thought that each time the Ultimate Cave opened on-site, the monsters would run out.

"Haha~ So the mission will be over in the next few days, and I can go visit you, Mary."

"Miss Mizuki, would you like to visit our world?"

Yuri looked over curiously. In her mind, weren't champions always incredibly busy, with time to travel the world?

"Well, I was just taking a little break."

The main problem is that she is too young, and Alola has only just established a league. Mizuki's championship title is more of a symbolic one. The real concern is still that Dr. Kukui is worried about.

Otherwise, a champion wouldn't have that much time to let her run around everywhere.

After returning home and having lunch, Mary and the others planned to continue their daily training.

Although they said they would play with Yuri, their daily training couldn't be neglected, especially for rookie trainers like Marie and Yuri. Because of their exceptionally rapid growth, they couldn't afford to be lazy if they wanted to achieve good results in their first year.

I recently taught Baloo how to switch fields and take over, mainly because most battles against Ultra Beasts are team battles. These skills were specifically taught to help us coordinate our attacks more flexibly, but we haven't mastered them enough to use them in actual combat yet.

Ichigo learned the taunt technique, which proved to be incredibly effective. Before, she lacked the energy, but now she had the time.

Actually, as for Sis, Mari really wanted her to learn Trick Room and Magic Flame, but unfortunately she didn't have any TMs, so she could only ask her brother to buy them for her after they returned to Galar.

Little Chirp was lucky; Mari had a move called Pounce, which, when combined with Iron Wall, was a pretty good way to deal damage.

Mo's output methods are sufficient for now, but he has learned an additional Stand and electromagnetic wave. As for stable form switching, it is still somewhat difficult. He still cannot switch to the empty-bellied pattern form at will, but there is no other way but to slowly hone his skills.

Finally, there's Nicholas Ido.

When it was his turn, Mary suddenly realized that she hadn't named him yet.

"Speaking of which, we haven't named you yet."

"Oh~? (Name?)"

“Yes, Xuwuid is a bit long, and it’s the name of your entire race. It would be better to come up with a separate name for you to distinguish it.”

He, who already felt out of place with the other Nihilegos, naturally had no objections; on the contrary, he was quite happy.

"How about we call him Kyon... Pfft."

For some reason, a joke buried deep in her memory suddenly came to mind, making Mary unable to help but laugh.

"Oh, that's fine as long as Mary chose it."

Although it was a bit unconventional, seeing that Kyon himself didn't seem to mind, Mary didn't bother to think about it anymore, since she was terrible at coming up with names.

After settling these trivial matters, Mary then assigned Kyon his training tasks. He didn't know many moves, since there were no skill learning machines in that world, so recently she had him learn three status moves: Toxic, Reflect, and Protect.

The offensive moves include Power Gem and Venom Impact, which are sufficient for now, so Toxic was added to complement Venom Impact, while Reflect and Protect were added to compensate for the weak defensive capabilities.

Kyon's base stats are generally stronger than Suzu and Chiu, but due to his high Special Defense and low Defense, he'll be significantly outmatched by Chiu. However, he's much weaker than Pazu and Ichigo.

Overall, she's about the same level of skill as Siji and Xiaojiu. We can look forward to seeing how much she'll improve by the time the knockout stage comes at the end of this year.

After arranging the training plan for the six Pokémon, Marie returned to the house. It wasn't that she was being lazy, but rather that the incubator she and Yuri were carrying had finally given a notification that two Pokémon eggs were about to hatch.

"If I remember correctly, your eggs are a bouncy sea lion and a six-tailed lion."

Mizuki sat down beside them with great interest, staring at the two eggs that were about to hatch. Although they were both Alola Pokémon, she had never raised Vulpix before and was quite curious about it.

"Yes, yes, I'm really looking forward to it!"

Yuri nodded excitedly. Although she was sitting in the chair, she couldn't stay still at all. After all, it was the super cute Six-Tails. She had been looking forward to it for so long, and finally she could touch the real thing.

Mary played with the mysterious water droplet she had prepared beforehand as a gift for the sea lion Ball Ball, while Yuri prepared an ice that wouldn't melt, which was a rather valuable special item.

Don't be fooled by the champion casually giving away the Mysterious Water Drop; it's actually an item that can proportionally increase the power of water-type moves. It can be used for a very long time. While it's not impossible to buy, it's certainly not cheap.

After waiting for about ten minutes, with a click, the shells on both incubators opened one after the other, revealing the elf eggs inside.

It was initially predicted that Mary's Ball Ball Sea Lion might have a delayed hatching time, but unexpectedly, it happened to coincide with Yuri's.

I rubbed my hands together nervously, and saw cracks appear on both eggs almost simultaneously. Then, white light squeezed out of the eggshells, spreading little by little until it enveloped the entire egg.

bang——

After a crisp cracking sound, the eggshell broke and turned into light, disappearing into the air, and two adorable Pokémon appeared in front of the three girls.

“kon~”

"Ow~"

The snow-white six-tailed sea lion and the blue ball-shaped sea lion uttered their first sound of birth.

Yuri chuckled impatiently as she crouched down, bringing her gaze level with the Vulpix on the table. Marie mimicked her movement, meeting the curious eyes of the Sea Lion, and smilingly extended a finger to gently tap her small cheek.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Mary."

"Ow~"

Since she was just born, she couldn't express herself accurately yet, so Mary couldn't understand what they were saying. However, she still handed over the mysterious water droplet she had prepared and hung it around the neck of the sea lion, Ball Ball.

"Do you like the gift I gave you?"

"Ow~"

The sea lion, Ball Ball, raised its forelimbs and held the mysterious water droplet up to its face, examining it closely. It seemed to like it quite a bit, and Mary breathed a sigh of relief; at least it didn't dislike it.

Meanwhile, Mizuki stood behind, watching the two newborn little ones, and wondered if she should raise a few more new Pokémon herself.

Chapter 174 The King of Devouring Food

The two newly born Pokémon have a lot to take care of. Although they can run and jump, they are not suitable for training or battling, so Marnie and Yuri have lost much of their desire to play.

Mary is lucky; Meiyue has a very strong Primarina, which means that she can ask Meiyue to help Mary with early education for her bouncy sea lion during this period.

Of course, we won't need it for the next couple of days. We need to build a good relationship with the trainers first.

For example, right now, Mary is sitting on a rock in her swimsuit, watching the ball sea lion next to her diligently learning to blow bubbles and sing under the tutelage of the western sea lion.

Yes, singing.

Although they don't have lyrics, this breed has a very beautiful singing voice, so many Primarinas will go on to perform under the guidance of their trainers.

Behind Mari, the other Pokémon were doing their daily training. Because Mizuki and Mari's Pokémon were quite strong, their training grounds were set up quite far apart.

The person closest to Marie is Bal, who is giving Xiao Zuo special training. Xiao Zuo is close to the time to evolve, and without Marie having to make any special arrangements, Bal has already started to arrange Xiao Zuo's special training plan.

If nothing unexpected happens, after Xiao Zuo evolves, Baldr and Marie will be separated for a while, since both of them need to find a new Doromisia to take care of.

While it's fine for Mari to accompany her, she doesn't intend to get too involved in matters concerning the ecology of her species. Furthermore, it's unlikely that Xiao Zuo will continue to follow Mari after this, unless Yuri decides to subdue him.

"Aww—(Marilyn Marie, look, look!)"

The sea lion raised its head and carefully blew a bubble, but it was only about half a meter in diameter. This was the limit that the sea lion could do at the moment; any larger and it would burst.

"Great job! Keep it up!"

Mary raised her hand and deliberately poked the transparent bubble. Although it was formed from water, it seemed to contain a lot of energy manipulation techniques, so ordinary touches could not pop it directly.

If it were Mizuki's Seirin, the bubbles she blew would be even more solid, and even ordinary attacks might not be able to break them.

Ball Ball, the sea lion, hasn't been named yet. The little guy can't even speak properly yet, so there's no rush to name him.

After the sea lion finished making its little bubble, it turned around, held it up, and with a flick of its head, caught the little You, who had been waiting and floated over, inside.
