After sending the message, Naoki felt that he was about to become an NPC in the game to send a mission.

But the Pokémon that will live in the World Tree are all closely related to the Hero Expedition, in this case, it is better to let the baby bear and Dream themselves invite the Pokémon.

We are all good friends, living happily together every day, farming together, and exploring together.

It's a kind of life that's beautiful just thinking about it.

Back at the ranch, it was noon.

Naoki washed his hands and began to prepare lunch for the Pokémon.

Today's lunch is still very rich.

Fried steak, steamed sea bass, padia paella, vegetable salad and sandwiches, accompanied by nutritious energy cubes and a delicious after-dinner snack Baufen.

The lunch set consisting of these dishes is nutritionally balanced and can encompass the preferences of almost every Pokémon in the ranch.

"Boo's! Boota! ”

The voices of the Eevees could be heard in the living room, and when Naoki looked up, he saw several little Eevees chasing each other's tails and running around the couch.

One of them accidentally stepped on the tail of the old Loton, and the old Loton who closed his eyes and recuperated was immediately awakened, and looked at the initiator with his golden eyes open.

Instead of being afraid, the little Eevees began to chase and fight around the old Leton.

Seeing this scene, Leton's face was full ......of helplessness: "Ahh

"They're not afraid of you anymore." Naoki came to the restaurant with the food and said with a smile.

At first, these little Ibuke were afraid of Soleton, but as they got along with each other in their daily lives, they slowly discovered that Soleton was not so terrible, and they rarely lost their temper.

Over time, I became less afraid.

"......Ahh

Seeing Naoki coming, the Eevees quickly turned their attention to Naoki.

They all gathered around, raising their little heads and babbling at him.

Naoki raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?" ”

Lothom's mobile phone helped translate: "The Ibrahims are asking [Can we evolve into a more powerful Eevee now] Loto! ”

"You want to evolve?" Naoki turned his head, not finding the evolved Eevee in the room.

The three brothers of Fire and Water, along with Ice Eevee and Moon Eevee, have evolved to prefer the outside to the outside than in the room.

At this time, they should be out playing with the Frost Fairies, right?

The remaining three Eevees, who had not yet evolved, nodded their little heads one after another: "Bu Tea! ”

That's right! They've grown into Big Eevee, and they can evolve into even more powerful Eevee!

After that, one of the Eevees also tried to show off his strong body.

Naoki: "......"

It's been seven months since the Ibrahims hatched, and compared to that time, they're really grown.

"Okay, then I'll see if I can help you evolve after lunch." Naoki agreed.

"Boo!" The three Eevees cried out in joy.

There was also an Eevee sitting on the sidelines, seemingly uninterested in evolution.

Because Naoki said that the partner Eevee who doesn't evolve is the most powerful!

After all, only the partner Eevee can use the super ultimate - Nine Colors Sublimation Gather at the top!

After pacifying a few Eevees, Naoki turned around and brought the rest of the meal to the restaurant.

When everything was ready, he stood under the eaves and whistled towards the pasture.

Soon, a large group of Pokémon came running back from all directions, went to their food bowls, buried their heads in them, and happily enjoyed their lunch.

*

In the afternoon, in the Hoenn area, a place called Kimori no Mori.

It was a very lush forest, and in the middle of the forest there used to be a huge tall tree, but not long ago, the huge tree had fallen due to excessive aging.

A Pokémon called Kimorinomiya, which originally built a nest around a huge tree, also lost its nest as a result.

The three Pokémon of the Heroic Expedition got the news from a wild hunting phoenix butterfly, so they rushed here to see if they could help those poor wooden guards.

Here, Dream and Bear Baby saw the huge tree that had withered and fallen.

"One ......"

“miu？”

Seeing the tragic state of this big tree, several Pokémon were a little unbearable, and the dream even thought of the World Tree in the ranch.

Will the World Tree also wither like this giant tree in the future? When the time comes, will they also lose their homes like the wooden guards who live here?

Dream doesn't know, baby bear doesn't, lightning bird doesn't know.

So after some entanglement, the three Pokémon simply asked Naoki for help.

The video call was dialed, and soon, Naoki appeared on the screen of Lothom's phone.

Dream and the baby bear's little faces huddled together, looking at Naoki opposite.

"One-one?" (Naoki, will the World Tree also wither in the future?) ）

Baby Bear's words were translated by Lothom and automatically reached Naoki's ears.

Naoki was very surprised: "Of course not, as long as this world does not perish, the World Tree will never wither, have you encountered something?" ”

Dream and Baby Bear nodded, then moved out of the way and showed Naoki the huge tree behind him that had withered and fallen to the ground.

Naoki understood it at a glance.

"I see! But rest assured, that won't happen. ”

Baby Bear and Dream breathed a sigh of relief.

Naoki wanted to say something more, but at this moment, he suddenly saw several figures flash in the bushes behind the two Pokémon.

With a roaring sound of breaking through the air, several sharp flying blades landed on the Lightning Bird's legs.

"Dangerous!" Naoki hurriedly reminded.

The three Pokémon suddenly went off the alarm, and Lothom's phone automatically scanned the surroundings.

Soon, Naoki saw a few green figures on the big trees not far away.

Is that...... The Imperial Three Families of the Hoenn area?!

At this time, Dream and Baby Bear also found traces of those wooden guards.

The bear baby immediately began to negotiate with the other party: "One, one! (We are a heroic expedition on a journey, no malice!) ）

The wooden guards were still looking at this side vigilantly.

Seeing this, Naokema realized the idea of these wooden guards.

That place was their territory, and the sudden intrusion of the Lightning Bird, Dream, and Baby Bear were taken by them as enemies when they invaded their territory.

According to the habits of Pokémon such as Kimori Palace, they will fiercely intimidate enemies who invade their territory and protect their homeland.

Because of this, Kimorigu is also known as a Pokémon that protects the tree of the forest.

But looking at their actions just now, it didn't look like they were attacking, but like warning the heroic expedition team.

Otherwise, with the ability of Mu Shougong, when facing an opponent who is standing still, it is impossible for the Flying Leaf Quick Knife to miss.

Seeing that the Mu Shougong didn't pay attention, Dream also opened his mouth to explain: "Miu! (We heard from other Pokémon that a huge tree had fallen here, so we came over here to take a look and see if we could help!) ）

The lightning bird spreads its wings, and the crackling of electricity on its sharp feathers explodes.

Seeing the lightning bird's movements, the group of wooden guards became even more vigilant.

And at this moment, an old Pokémon cry came from the forest.

Hearing this voice, those wooden guards stopped one after another and looked back.

I saw an older wooden Shougong slowly walking out of the grass.

The other Kimori Shrines jumped to the ground one after another, following behind the older Kimori Palace.

"Chau?" (You're saying you're here to help us?) ）

Dream and Baby Bear nodded their heads.

"One!" (That's right!) We are a heroic expedition team that is currently traveling around the world to help Pokémon in need! ）

Kimoriya looked at the huge tree: "Chau." (But the giant tree is dead, it's too old to survive anymore.) ）

Hearing this, Dream and Baby Bear couldn't help but look distressed.

Dream flew forward, trying to bring the giant tree back to life with its powers, but failed.

This left the two Pokémon not knowing what to do.

After thinking for a while, the baby bear was unwilling to give up: "One! (There will be a way!) ）

"Excuse me." Across the screen from Lothom's phone, Naoki, who had witnessed the whole process, suddenly spoke.

A group of Pokémon immediately looked over this way.

Only then did the wooden guards notice that there was actually a human in the body of that strange Pokémon.

Naoki: "Baby bear, Dreamy, see if you can find its seeds near the giant tree, and if you can, you can use the power of the Thundercrown King to revive it." ”

Hearing this, Dream and Baby Bear's eyes lit up.

They hurriedly flew to the side of the huge fallen tree, fiddling with the branches and examining the decaying branches.

Soon, the lucky baby bear found a tree species.

Naoki continued, "Next, dig a pit in the clearing and bury this seed in it. ”

"One!"

The baby bear did so, and began to dig a pit with its little paws under the watchful eyes of the wooden guards.

Soon, a pit about 10 centimeters deep was dug out.

The baby bear put the seeds in and buried them in the soil.

In the pasture, Naoki nodded at the Lei Guan.

In the first place, the king of Leiguan, who was far away in Galar, had caused the crops in his pasture to ripen early.

And with the current power of the Thunder Crown King, that kind of thing was simply not too easy for him.

Lei Guanwang glanced at it, then closed his eyes, sensed the location of Dream and Baby Bear, and then, activated the ability.

In the next second, a magical scene happened.

I saw that the tree that had just been buried grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and turned into a young sapling.

The wooden guards watched this scene in shock.

Before they could react, the sapling began to grow again.

After a few breaths, a huge tree stood tall in front of them.

Kimori Shrine: !!

The wooden guards who had never seen such a scene before were stunned.

Dream and Baby Bear are happily standing under the tree.

"One, one!" (No problem now!) ）

"miu~" (so that you can live under the huge tree again~)

Looking at the shocked appearance of the group of wooden guards on the other side, Naoki couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart.

Kimori Palace, the three royal families in the Hoenn region, Ash also has a Kimori Palace.

His wooden palace later evolved into the Lizard King, and his record was very good, and in the alliance meeting of the Sinnoh region, he even defeated the god beast man Dakta's Darkrai.

Although he was later defeated by Ladios sent by Daktor, the Lizard King had done a great job.

But then again, is this the daily routine of the heroic expedition?

It's a lot of fun to help Pokémon in need everywhere.

Naoki wanted to look at it for a while, but suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.

He saw that there should be nothing wrong with the baby bear, so he hung up the phone and went to open the door.

The person who knocked on the door was Mayor Thomas with a white beard.

The old gentleman smiled and said, "Good afternoon, Naoki!" ”

"Good afternoon, Mayor Thomas!" Naoki said hello, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Mayor Thomas nodded and asked, "That's right, the day after tomorrow is the time for the Spring Fishing Tournament, do you plan to participate in that tournament this year?" ”

Spring Fishing Tournament ......

Speaking of fishing, Naoki remembered the Padia paella he had eaten earlier.

One of the effects of that dish is to increase the chances of the eater catching rare fish.

"Okay!" Naoki thought to himself that he was idle in the ranch anyway, so he might as well go over there and have some fun.

Mayor Thomas smiled and said, "That's good, those fishing celebrities in the town have wanted to compete with you for a long time, you didn't participate in the first two years, and this year those guys came to me specifically and asked me to ask if you participated." ”

Naoki: "......"

By Mayor Thomas, it was clear what was going on.

When he first came to the ranch, in order to make money, he asked Gu Leton to help fry a lot of fish.

The townsfolk had always thought that he had caught the fish, and in the minds of the people of Ranch, the rancher Naoki was probably a master angler with superb fishing skills.

Fishing techniques have reached the level of supernatural ones.

Naoki was speechless for a moment.

Mayor Thomas was very happy: "The location of the fishing tournament is in the cauldron lake, and the time is 8 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, so use your fishing skills to impress those challengers!" ”

Naoki: "......"

It seems that the Padia paella has to be introduced.

*

At the same time, in the Hoenn region, in the forest of Kimori Palace.

In order to express their gratitude to the heroic expedition, the Wood Guards gathered tree fruits and held a banquet under the huge tree.

The older man handed the baby bear a tree fruit.

"Chau!" (You're amazing!) It can give a wilted giant tree a new life! ）

The baby bear stretched out his hand to take it, shook his head happily and said, "One! (That's all thanks to Naoki and the Buddy Crown!) ）

Naoki? Lei Guanwang?

Is it the human in the body of the Pokémon named Lothom?

Thinking about it, Mu Shougong asked directly.

The bear shook his head and nodded: "One, one!" (Naoki is Naoki, the best human in the world!) The Thundercrown King is also a very powerful Pokémon, and he lives in the ranch with everyone! ）

The dream on the side also nodded in agreement: "miu~"

Mu Shougong asked again: "Chau? (Ranch?) ）

"One, one!" (That's our home!) There is also a very big tree in the ranch, and that is the World Tree! ）

Speaking of this, the baby bear suddenly remembered the commission that Naoki had given them before.

It looked at the wooden guards in front of it, these Pokémon are also grass-type Pokémon, right?

So, the baby bear happily invited the wooden guards.

"One and the other? One! (The World Tree is very large, and Naoki says that he plans to build an expedition guild there, as well as the Pokémon Tavern, Pokémon Farm, and Pokémon Restaurant, would you like to settle on the World Tree?) Everyone lives together, it's very lively! ）
