Pokémon from Galar

"Whether it's romantic or not is another matter, but be careful, if you make someone angry, they might use you as a whetstone for evolution."

Mary joked that she had indeed heard such an anecdote before. It was said that the unknown trainer's buttocks were almost whipped off, and he had to rest on the hospital bed for a long time before he could get up.

"Um... I don't think so, haha..."

Yuri scratched her head and smiled sheepishly, after all, it wasn't the first or second time she had provoked some wild Pokémon.

The two chatted casually as they walked to the lake. Surprisingly, there were vendors selling camping supplies and food there.

After giving a greeting, Mary set up camp not far away. Since Yuri wanted to see the legendary Farfetch'd here, it probably wouldn't be a short time.

The lake in this area is crescent-shaped and covers a considerable area. Combined with the large grasslands and forests, finding the Allium fistulosa is no easy task.

As for Marie herself, she plans to let Palmer continue to familiarize himself with moves of different types. Although the Fire-type moves he practiced recently weren't used in the gym battle, they weren't wasted.

Balu has learned a wide variety of skills, and it will take time to master them one by one to enrich his tactics and attack range. Fortunately, there is a lake here, and Mari plans to let Balu get familiar with the skill of diving.

After setting up the tent, Mary reached out and patted the Pokémon that had come to help.

"Thank you for your hard work~"

"Hey~ (It's okay~)"

Balu chuckled a few times, his body nimbly rolled twice in mid-air, and then Xiao Sa and Xiao You were launched out with practiced ease.

"nya—! (Wow, that was fast!)"

"nya~! (Hahaha~!)"

Still unable to understand the fun of the dragon race, Marie shook her head, then patted Baloo's tail.

"Baru, there's a lake right here. Why don't you practice your diving today?"

"Hoo! (No problem!)"

Balu didn't resist at all, patting his belly with both paws to show that he would practice hard.

Mary, curious, grabbed the tip of the translucent tail that was dangling in front of her and asked:

"Speaking of which, Pazu, what was your reason for specifically learning the diving skill using a TM?"

"Hehe~ (You mean this? Little Sasuke said he wanted to go swimming, and I remember you told me about the diving TM, so I dug it out and learned it~)"

"...I see."

Mary nodded, unsure how to comment. It was alright to learn a water-based skill specifically to take the child swimming. But thinking about it another way, since she could take Xiao Zuo swimming, her proficiency must be pretty good, right?

"Hey, Balu, your diving skills must be pretty good, right?"

"Roar! (It should be alright, but I've never used this move in combat, so I'm not sure how powerful it actually is.)"

Balu didn't intend to hide it. After all, he only learned the skill for fun and never thought of using it to beat anyone up. So he never tested its power and always canceled it before the energy burst.

"ok, I get it."

Marie nodded. Power was actually secondary; Marie's original goal was to help Palm get used to the aquatic environment, even though battling Water-type Pokémon in the water would definitely be stupid.

However, at other times, it might be able to force Pokémon with poor swimming ability into the water to create an advantage for itself.

"Ee~ (Then I'll help you practice.)"

Before Marie could even speak, Ichigo stepped forward. But there was no other way; Marie's Pokémon strength was severely polarized. Ichigo and Palmo were strong and could stand on their own, while Sue and Chip were just getting started and hadn't even evolved to their final stages yet.

Sis and Chiu are fine; Yuri's Pokémon can come over for training.

However, Ichigo and Palmon can only train against each other, because other Pokémon simply cannot withstand any of their attacks.

"Keep it up, Ichi-chan. When we get to Mizusho Town, I'll teach you a couple more skills."

Mary patted Ichigo's head and let the two of them go practice on their own. As for the TM, she had asked Sonia to keep an eye out for it before. It wasn't a particularly rare TM, so it should be easy to find one.

I-chan's skill pool isn't very deep. Unlike Pazu, who has already learned a lot of skills, I-chan doesn't know a lot of skills, but she has practiced each one very thoroughly.

Recently, Ichigo has been practicing Iron Tail and Poison quite well. With the team gradually expanding, it's time to learn a couple of new skills to supplement Ichigo's abilities and help the whole team connect.

The most basic thing... is to learn how to pass the baton and self-motivation first, so that you can be more flexible in future battles.

Although it won't be needed for gym battles for the time being.

Seeing Balu and Ichigo move slightly away, Mari, holding her skirt, sat down on the grass, beckoned to Suzu-chan to come over, and pulled her hand to sit beside her.

"Sis-chan, why don't you take a rest this afternoon and recover through meditation?"

"Chiru~ (I understand~)"

Sis leaned against Mary, staring wide-eyed in Ichiro's direction, seemingly not planning to meditate for the time being.

"Chirp chirp? (Where's Grandpa? Where's Grandpa?)"

Mary looked up at the little bird chattering in mid-air and said:

"Stop talking nonsense and get down here right now. If you say another word, today's massage will be canceled."

"Chirp—! (No, no! I was wrong! Mary-chan~!)"

The little chick shamelessly called out Mary's name, then flew to Mary, folded its wings, and landed on Mary's lap in a round and plump manner.

"If you make any more strange noises, I'll have Siss-chan push you into the water."

"Shut up!"

Little Chick decisively closed its beak, then tilted its little face and obediently enjoyed Mary's massage.

This is also part of the treatment process, so even though Marie complained, she still took good care of Chirp, after all, it was her Pokémon, and what she said earlier was just to scare it.

Chapter 59 The Green Onion Duck That Came to Our Door

The environment in this lake area is quite nice. Although it is not as bustling as the Wild Area, the Pokémon that roam around, as well as the jungle and grassland, make it a good camping spot.

Yuri's Pokémon had all gone off to play, so she walked over to Marie empty-handed, sat down casually, and watched Chip enjoying Marie's massage without saying a word.

Mary turned her head slightly, glanced at Yuri sitting next to her, and asked:

"what happened?"

"Nothing much, I just came over to sit with Mary for a while."

Yuri shook her head subconsciously; even she found her answer baffling.

"Didn't we say we were going to find leek duck?"

"Let's rest for a bit. We've walked such a long way. How about Mary-chan gives me another massage?"

Yuri raised her arm and rubbed her neck, pretending to have sore muscles.

I had been massaged before, back in the wilderness. Yuri had walked too much and was sore from the exertion that Mary had to give her a massage that night.

However, since Mari had learned massage techniques for Pokémon, not for humans, she only used it once in an emergency and never massaged Yuri again.

"I can't tell where you're in pain."

Without turning her head, Marie uttered those words with practiced ease, her refusal executed with practiced fluency. It wasn't that Marie was stingy, but rather that the bodies of Pokémon and humans were vastly different, and Marie was afraid that if she didn't use enough force, she might cause some serious harm.

Even humanoid Pokémon have very different body structures from humans, making it difficult to compare them. That time, she did it without restraint, and after experiencing it firsthand, Marie didn't want to do it again.

"Hmm... I'm so envious. I also want to lie on Mary-chan's lap and receive such a gentle massage."

It's unclear who Yuri was referring to, but after hearing this, Xiao Chu arrogantly opened her eyes, raised her head, and gave Yuri a backwards look.

"Chirp~ (Heh~)"

"hiss--"

Even without Mary translating, the utterly sarcastic tone clearly reached Yuri. Mary found it somewhat amusing, and her hands moved naturally, finding a few spots and gently pressing down.

"Chirp—!! (Ouch—! It hurts! It hurts so much! Be gentle, be gentle!)"

"Behave yourself, why are you always teasing Yuri?"

"Chirp chirp—! (I was wrong, I was wrong, go easy on me! I'm going to die!)"

Seeing the squealing chirp instantly quiet down, Yuri laughed again, reaching out her fingers to pinch and pull the chirp's chubby cheeks quite unceremoniously.

"Hehe~ Thanks, Mary-chan, hmph~ Now you know how powerful I am~"

"..."

Threatened by Mari, Xiao Chu put on a humiliating, death-defying expression, silently enduring Yuri's provocations. A mere provocation was nothing compared to the comfort of Mari-chan's massage!

"Alright, Yuri, stop messing with him. You've rubbed all his fur off."

"Hehe... okay."

Yuri chuckled and let go. Although this guy liked to be arrogant, to be fair, he felt pretty good to the touch. He was round and plump, which was the perfect size to hold and rub in your arms.

"Will Mary-chan come with me later?"

"You mean the leek duck? You can go by yourself, this forest isn't that big."

Marnie wasn't particularly interested. As for Farfetch'd, well, it's powerful, but evolving is indeed difficult. In fact, there's still no consensus on the evolution conditions for Farfetch'd.

However, it is generally believed that Farfetch'd's evolutionary conditions are related to its swordsmanship and its own beliefs. As for more detailed answers, the academic community has not yet reached a consensus.

"Hey—Mari-chan, since Si-chan and Xiao-chu don't have to train this afternoon, why don't you come with me to look for it?"

Yuri nudged Mary's shoulder. After all, Mary was still massaging Xiao Qiu and was too embarrassed to cling to her arm and act cute, so she could only make small gestures to express her feelings.

Just as Mari was helplessly pondering how to reply to Yuri, she suddenly noticed the movements of Ichigo and Pazu in the distance. Originally, the two of them should have been attacking and defending against each other, but for some reason, it turned into Pazu watching from the sidelines.

The distance was too far, and with Balu being such a big guy, Mari couldn't see what Ichijo was doing over there for a moment.

"Wait, don't move... let me see what Ichi-chan is doing over there."

Mary curiously craned her neck and tilted her body to look in that direction. The view from the lakeside was quite good. Just then, Balu lightly turned around and flew away, revealing I-chan and the figure opposite her.

"...Yuri, it seems you don't need to look for her anymore."

"Huh? That over there... could it be Farfetch'd?!"

Yuri, whose attention was drawn by Mary's words, naturally craned her neck to look in that direction, and then saw a duck carrying a large green onion on its back, posing as if ready to fight, facing I-chan.
