Pokémon from Galar

Thinking about the upcoming Water-type Gym, Marie suddenly had this thought: what if this huge, cotton-like thing is super absorbent of water?

So he reached out and tugged at Yuri's sleeve, who was still happily dazed, and told Bai Pengpeng and Yuri about his thoughts.

"Then... let's conduct an experiment."

Yuri then called over the mutated lizard, who was diligently practicing its control abilities nearby, in an attempt to conduct a test.

Chapter 83 Precautions for Sleeping with Pokémon

It turns out that the white cotton on its back seems to have a certain degree of waterproofing. Aside from the damage from the water ripples from the astringent lizard, the large wad of cotton on its back effectively blocked most of the water.

There was only a layer of water droplets on the surface, and there was no sign of water absorption or shrinkage inside, and the weight did not increase.

Although the principle is not yet clear, it is understandable that there is a waterproof layer on the surface.

I reckon that as long as I'm not completely submerged in water, I shouldn't be worried about absorbing too much water and hindering my movement.

"Wow, so amazing~ White fluffy—"

Yuri took the opportunity to pick up White Puff and buried her face in the soft cotton, but this did not trigger White Puff's special ability. The ignored White Puff was left hanging helplessly in mid-air, looking up at Mari in front of her with a helpless expression.

Unexpectedly, after evolving, the original body was ignored, which was an outcome that Bai Pengpeng did not anticipate.

"Alright, tone it down."

She reached out and hugged Bai Pengpeng, then turned him around so that Bai Pengpeng's face was directly facing Yuri.

"Hehe... Sorry, sorry."

Yuri naturally understood Bai Pengpeng's expression, scratched her head sheepishly, and then reached out to let Bai Pengpeng land in her palm.

Ignoring how the silly child should coax his Pokémon, Marnie returned to her Pokémon after satisfying her curiosity.

"Thank you for your hard work, Si-chan."

Upon entering, Mary reached out and patted the stone surface. Seeing this, Sissy moved aside.

"Chiru—(I've already cleaned it, no need to wipe it.)"

Mary paused in her actions, looked up at Sis, smiled, and reached out to pat her head.

"I see, thank you."

Without any hesitation, Xiao Mo sat down next to Si Jiang, then helped Si Jiang walk to Mary's lap and sat down again, but did not let go of Si Jiang's little hand.

"As expected, Xiao Mo really likes you."

"Chiru... (I don't understand...)"

Without deliberately struggling, he casually let Xiao Mo hold his hand, then turned his head to glance at the clingy electric mouse.

"Chiru—(He's just a bit too clingy.)"

"You were the same before."

Mary reached out and poked Sisi's little head with her finger, but Sisi turned her head away, avoiding Mary's finger.

"Chiru—! (What?! I didn't! It's just, just a tiny bit! It's not that exaggerated!)"

She probably blushed, and after turning her head away, Mary couldn't see clearly, but she felt that she was probably shy because her embarrassing past was being mentioned.

Mary withdrew her finger and didn't continue teasing him. Although it was only a short time ago, for Sis-chan, who had evolved and whose personality had become like that of a young girl, it was probably a kind of embarrassing history.

"just……?"

Sitting between the two people, holding Sijiang's hand, Xiao Mo couldn't understand their conversation, after all, he was just a newborn electric mouse.

……

In the evening, after a full day of training and even taking some time to watch Hop's gym challenge, Marie and Yuri were exhausted. After dinner, they returned to the hotel and soon went to bed to sleep.

After washing up, Mary walked barefoot and with her hair down to the bedside. She saw the fluffy white baby lying in Yuri's arms, puffed up in a big ball. She sat down, patted Little Mo's head, and said with a grumble:

"You're really planning to sleep with it in your arms?"

"What does it matter! I cuddled him for so long during the day and he didn't shed a single hair. It'll be fine!"

She even deliberately rubbed her fluffy white body, an act that looked like she was setting a flag, leaving Mary at a loss for words.

"nya~ (Ahaha~ It tickles~ Stop touching me!)"

Looking at the laughing white puffy ...

"Alright, as long as you know what you're doing."

Pulling back the covers and lying down, Xiao Mo squeezed in as well, resting her head on the pillow just like Mary, and squinted her eyes while lying on her back.

"Haha—goodnight, everyone, and Mary-chan too."

Yuri let go of his hand, turned to the side and hugged Bai Pengpeng, looked at Mary's profile, and closed her eyes in peace.

"OK, good night."

Snapped--

On the other side, Si-chan raised her hand and turned off the room light remotely. Then she turned over and hugged I-chan's body, draping all four limbs over I-chan, with no regard for sleeping posture.

The room fell silent, with only the moonlight from outside the window illuminating a small part of the room.

Once everyone was completely asleep, only the even breathing could be heard in the room.

then……

Thump—thump—

A very faint sound, like something bursting out, echoed in the room.

"Well……"

Yuri, whose body was covered in a large wad of cotton, felt a little uncomfortable, so she subconsciously tightened her arms and turned over.

The white fluffy creature, held in someone's arms, was completely flattened, and even its main body frowned in discomfort, trying to resist the attack from the dream. Thus, naturally, its special ability was triggered...

bang bang bang-

A more urgent sound rang out again.

The cotton seeds on her body kept bursting open, and even more cotton was ejected, gradually engulfing Yuri's entire chest and then spreading to the sides.

Cotton is lightweight, has little power, and is bulky.

In an instant, the cotton on the bed where Yuri and Marie were sleeping grew rapidly, but no one noticed that it hadn't reached their heads yet, nor that the Pokémon hadn't been affected.

The fluffy white cotton has a slowing effect, so although Yuri, who was almost completely covered in cotton, didn't feel uncomfortable, she subconsciously felt that she was being restrained.

In her dream, she imagined herself bound hand and foot, not knowing where she was being taken to be sold. Amidst this emotional turmoil, Yuri once again tried to turn over and exert herself, struggling in her sleep.

Thump thump— Thump thump thump—

More and more cotton is extracted. The tiny white tufts, no more than half a meter in size including the cotton clumps, burst out cotton clumps far exceeding their own size. Cotton seeds keep bursting open and being produced again and again.

Gradually, not only Yuri, but also Mary and Mo were submerged in cotton.

Until, a wad of cotton landed right on Xiao Mo's face and went into his mouth...

"just……?"

Feeling something strange in her mouth, followed by a feeling of suffocation, Xiao Mo instinctively struggled.

"precisely--"

The feeling of being completely bound made Xiao Mo anxious, as if he had dreamt of some formidable enemy. In his haste, he subconsciously used a weak but powerful move.

High-speed rotation.

*Pfft—Smack—!*

"Cha—!! Cha…? (Get out of here! Uh…?)"

"puff--"

The high-speed rotation had an extraordinary effect, scattering all the cotton on the bed in one go, instantly waking Xiao Mo up, and then causing her to crash directly into Mary's face.

"???"

Mary struggled to raise her hand to remove the electric mouse from her face, then stared blankly at Little Mo, who was covered in cotton and grinning at her. Looking around at the vast expanse of white, Mary blinked, still not understanding what was happening.

"...What's going on?"

Chapter 84 Let's use the cotton to make dolls and cushions.

After setting Xiao Mo aside, Mary struggled to get up and found herself covered in cotton, feeling heavy and sluggish.

Meanwhile, the Pokémon with heightened senses had been awakened, but like Marnie, they were unable to comprehend what was happening in front of them.

"Eh? (What's wrong, Mary?)"

"...I don't know, Ichi-chan, could you help me pick up all this cotton and be careful not to touch yourself?"

"Chiru...? (What's wrong...? Do you need my help?)"

"Please take care of Siji-chan as well."

After giving these instructions, Mary reached out and started rummaging around the spot next to her where Yuri should have been sleeping. She swept away clumps of cotton and then used her telekinesis to make them float into the air.

Ignoring Yuri, who was completely unconscious, Mari was the first to rescue the deformed white puff from Yuri's hands.

"nya...?! (What happened?! What's going on?! o(?Д?)っ!?)"

Reaching out to pat her fluffy white head, Mary comforted her, both amused and exasperated:

"It's nothing, it's just that your trainer is an idiot."

“nya… (I, I’ll help…)”

Even if it's just cotton that fell off itself, Shiro still has a certain degree of control over it, such as making it less sticky, which can reduce the workload for Ichi-chan and Su-chan.

"Yuri, Yuri, wake up!"

She reached out and nudged Yuri, who was still fast asleep. This girl was practically buried alive, how come she didn't feel any discomfort?

"Hmm... Marie-chan? Hehehe... What's wrong?"

Yuri, who was not fully awake, just squinted and reached out to hug Mary's waist, then leaned in and pressed her head against Mary's lower abdomen, intending to continue sleeping.

"..."

Seeing Yuri's silly expression, she felt inexplicably angry, her face slightly flushed as she reached out and grabbed Yuri's cheek.
