Chapter 589 The dove takes over the magpie's nest
"You did a great job in this operation. It was thanks to you that you helped absorb the lightning when we broke through the lightning barrier."
During dinner, Su Yi made sure to distribute the food to the Pokémon of the Wild Thief Sisters, and then gave a special compliment to Rhyhorn.
“Seru…”
The rhinoceros scratched its head shyly.
Actually, it didn't play any decisive role, and it felt a little embarrassed to receive a special compliment.
"Get some rest," Su Yi said with a smile.
After Su Yi walked away, Gengar nudged Rhyhorn with its paw and whispered something.
Upon hearing this, the horned rhinoceros, who was happily eating, immediately looked dejected.
……
The next morning, Su Yi was all ready to go.
The last companion near Mt. Coronet should be Nergigante.
According to Beichen, it seemed to be attracted by something and searched around Tianguan Mountain, but eventually lost track of it.
Su Yi was also puzzled as to why the Nergigante was not drawn out during the intense battle with the Time Gods.
Could it be that it has already left Tianguan Mountain?
The immediate priority is to find its capture ball so that its location can be precisely pinpointed.
But before that...
"Mana~"
Manaphy spat out a stream of water and poured it onto Sticky Baby.
The slightly uneasy Sticky Baby relaxed a little and enjoyed the nourishment of the water.
"Come on, little one, I'll take you home."
Su Yi squatted down and spoke softly, while gently extending his hand as he did so.
"Numei!"
Sticky Baby immediately crawled back a short distance, looking at him timidly.
"Mana~"
Manaphy jumped onto Su Yi's shoulder and, mimicking him, reached out his hand to Sticky Baby.
“Numei…”
Sticky Baby still seemed somewhat resistant, as if it had been terrified yesterday and was still shaken.
"Mana~"
Manaphy had a flash of inspiration, and its two antennae pointed at Su Yi and Sticky Treasure respectively. Then, the spheres at the tips of the antennae emitted a faint light.
At that moment, Su Yi and Nian Nian Bao were both stunned.
Sticky Baby witnessed Su Yi treating his friends with gentleness.
Su Yi saw a clump of towering water plants, followed by lightning and an explosion.
His perspective swirled and finally landed at the entrance of a quarry.
"Mana~"
Manaphy let out a triumphant cry and retracted its antennae.
After a moment of confusion, Su Yi and Nian Nian Bao came to their senses.
"Nume?"
Sticky Baby wriggled toward Su Yi with some skepticism, seemingly less wary of him.
Was that a mind swap just now?
Su Yi patted his forehead.
Manaphy possesses the ability to communicate with any living being, and its Mind Swap technique can truly swap the minds of two beings.
So what he just saw must have been a fragment of Sticky Baby's memory.
"It seems that the Sticky Baby was driven out by an explosion caused by lightning..."
Su Yi suddenly felt a little guilty. Could it be related to his partner?
"I'll take you back to the ancient quarry right now."
Having confirmed the destination, Su Yi placed the Sticky Baby on his other shoulder.
The Nymphaloid species prefers to inhabit areas with abundant water resources, while the Emerald Nymphaloid needs a certain amount of iron in the water during its growth process in order for it to have a metallic shell.
Based on Sticky Treasure's memories, the ancient quarry with certain metal deposits, and the nearby swamps and wetlands, should be its habitat.
……
The ancient quarry was not far from the camp, located a little above the foot of Tianguan Mountain.
As its name suggests, this was once a huge mine where the ancient Sinnoh people mined stone and minerals.
Above the mine is a swamp with many small puddles, where Pokémon like Croagunk and Toxicroak, which need to be kept moist, also live.
"Strange, I haven't found the timid and shy Slippery, nor have I seen the territorial Frog or the Poison Skull Frog..."
The swamp was shrouded in a light mist in the early morning due to the abundant moisture and the warm morning sun.
Su Yi rode Toothless through the swamp, but did not see any Pokémon.
“Numei…”
Back in its familiar surroundings, Noodle Baby felt a little more at ease returning home, so it timidly called out.
Wow...
Toothless stepped into the puddle, creating ripples that stirred the nearby water plants and a small clump of wild rice.
"Stop!"
Su Yi frowned and looked towards the source of the thin mist, where a slightly different color caught his eye.
"Oozora, blow away the fog!"
The capture ball opened, and the sky soared into the air, flapping its wings repeatedly towards the swamp.
A strong wind blew away the fog, and the round, chubby creatures turned their heads to look at Su Yi.
"Wash the Jade Naughty Thunder Bombs! So many?!" Su Yi exclaimed in surprise.
"This shouldn't be the territory of the Green-Eyed Razor, right? How come there are more than ten of them suddenly appearing?!"
Upon suddenly finding himself surrounded by more than a dozen mischievous lightning bombs, Su Yi immediately tensed up.
Based solely on its portrayal in the anime and games, the Pokémon Electrode had already been etched into Su Yi's mind as a dangerous creature that would explode if he looked at it too long.
The feeling was like being surrounded by the exploding scales of a Crimson Blast Scale Dragon.
"Numei!"
When the GooBaby on Su Yi's shoulder saw the Naughty Thunderbolt, it immediately shrank into Su Yi's collar in fright.
"Naru!"
Upon seeing outsiders, the playful and mischievous Thunderballs immediately cried out as if in response to a stress reaction, rolling their round bodies covered with wood grain as they charged towards Su Yi.
"Toothless, fly!"
"Aga!"
Toothless immediately flapped his wings and flew high into the air, dodging the onslaught of the Rainbow Rathalos.
"Great Sky! Soaring Flame!"
Taking advantage of their collision and aggregation, Su Yi immediately ordered Da Kong to launch an attack.
"Roar!"
The sky roared through the mountains, spewing out scorching dragon flames that engulfed all the mischievous lightning bolts in flames.
boom!
The burst of flames immediately blasted the Greenish-Eyed Thunderbolt into a chaotic frenzy, and given their Grass-type nature, this attack was remarkably effective.
call!
The flames ignited the water plants, evaporating the water in the puddle and sending a thick cloud of steam rising into the air.
Su Yi frowned and reached out to shield Manaphy and Sticky Baby from the rising steam on his shoulder.
“Numei…”
Sticky Baby stared blankly at the swamp in the firelight.
Su Yi immediately shouted, "Manaphy, please, help put out the fire!"
"Mana~"
Manaphy confidently agreed, then unleashed a powerful stream of water that defied his size, extinguishing all the flames.
At the entrance of the quarry below, several mischievous little green trolls, having heard the commotion, rolled out and rushed up the hillside into the swamp.
"How come there are so many? When did the quarry become a den of naughty lightning bolts?"
Su Yi hesitated at this moment. This swamp was relatively fragile. If Da Kong used a few more breaths of fire, the environment here would probably be completely changed.
If you send in an Aomu that is immune to electric-type attacks, it's a different story. A few Ground-type moves and this swamp will collapse into the quarry below.
At that point, let alone getting Noodle Baby home, this precious home might be destroyed.
"Hey! Team Galactic friends, get out of there!"
At that moment, on the foothills not far away, a person wearing a Pearl Team uniform waved and shouted loudly.
"That's... Kitashō?"
Su Yi recognized the person as Bei Shang, the manager of the Pearl Team, who was in charge of taking care of Da Niula.
