Advanced Herbology, Fire-type Pokémon Breeding Data, How to Create Perfect Quality Top-tier Pokéblocks, On Breeders and Pokémon
After seeing off his master, Carver sat alone behind the counter, flipping through the books he had left behind.
There were no customers in the breeding house, and the Pokémon had all gone to the backyard to sunbathe. The afternoon breeze blew in from outside, passing through the main hall. Such a wonderful atmosphere was perfect for reading.
Bewear stood not far away, watching its little master, then turned around and quietly brought him a drink.
"Thank you, Bewear. You should go rest for a while too!" Carver said.
"Bewear~"
Bewear stayed nearby—Carver read his books, and it watched Carver.
Elder Eggi had given him many types of books, covering almost everything related to breeders.
Advanced Herbology discussed deeper aspects of herb varieties, appearances, growing environments, and geographical conditions, with functional medicines that could be prepared from each herb listed at the back.
From restoring stamina to curing status conditions, there were even medicines to prevent Pokémon from shedding fur.
Fire-type Pokémon Breeding Data detailed the breeding methods for Fire-type Pokémon.
This type of Pokémon had great affinity for areas filled with Fire-type energy. Training in hot zones full of flame energy like volcanoes and lava could achieve more excellent results.
"Volcanoes... there's Mt. Chimney near Autumn Leaf Town. I could take Growlithe there to have a look when I have time," Carver murmured.
There was much more content behind, but Carver wasn't in a rush to finish it all now.
They had plenty of time, so he could take it step by step!
On Breeders and Pokémon discussed the relationship between both parties—how to get along with Pokémon, treating them with heart and love, so that Pokémon would give corresponding feedback.
Because only when you understood a Pokémon well enough could you create more perfect plans for its diet and training.
However, what Carver wanted to focus on reading today was How to Create Perfect Quality Top-tier Pokéblocks.
Elder Eggi had given him a complete set of Pokéblock recipes covering all types. There must be one that could satisfy Taillow's needs.
However, when Carver opened this book and saw the content on the first page, he was stunned in place.
Because it actually said that perfect quality top-tier Pokéblocks needed to be made by hand mixing, not by machine.
[Cold, emotionless berry mixing machines cannot bring warmth and feeling to Pokéblocks. Even when completed, Pokémon eating them would find them as tasteless as chewing wax, far from reaching perfection.]
Carver continued reading.
[Pokéblocks made through hand-mixing berries naturally incorporate the creator's emotions and love for Pokémon during the creation process. The quality and effects of such Pokéblocks are often unexpectedly good. Preliminary analysis suggests that the creator's emotions and love bring special effects to the Pokéblocks.]
[Such as enhancing Pokémon's strength, making them stronger, improving Pokémon's wisdom, making them smarter, occasionally producing unexpected effects in battle.]
Carver looked at this content in disbelief.
So emotions really were a form of power in the Pokémon world?
This book's content was all handwritten. Without thinking, he knew it must be Elder Eggi's lifetime insights and summary.
Besides these creation methods, there were even different types of Pokéblocks that various species of Pokémon liked to eat.
Carver also found Taillow's most beloved Pokéblocks among them.
[Taillow, the Tiny Swallow Pokémon. With the perseverance to not get discouraged even when losing, it loves soaring in the sky and has high compatibility with Oran Berries. Pokéblocks made from Oran Berries and Nanab Berries grown in warm regions are deeply loved by them.]
Compared to those top-tier Pokéblocks, this Pokéblock was much less difficult to make.
And the breeding house happened to have both types of berries.
Carver looked carefully, then memorized the creation method.
He went to the kitchen, found the two types of berries, hesitated when using the Berry Blender, but finally decided to try making them by hand.
The steps for making Pokéblocks were very complex.
The berries needed to go through peeling, heating, boiling, stirring, removing impurities, and finally being placed in corresponding molds to set before completion.
Although somewhat elaborate, Carver could accept it.
It took him only half an hour to make a small box of Pokéblocks.
[Pokéblock (Taillow Flavor): Pokéblocks perfectly suited to Taillow's taste, containing the nutrition needed for Taillow's growth, but not perfect due to remaining impurities.]
"Still has impurities?"
Carver pondered briefly, then thought about which step went wrong.
After a moment, he began attempting again.
Time passed minute by minute. After several consecutive failures, Carver finally made a box of Pokéblocks without impurities.
[Pokéblock (Taillow Flavor): Pokéblocks perfectly suited to Taillow's taste, containing the nutrition needed for Taillow's growth. Perfect quality.]
Finally successful!
That evening, when Taillow flew to this breeding house again as usual to freeload food and drink, it suddenly discovered Carver was already waiting there early.
As soon as it landed, it smelled a very enticing aroma.
Looking at that box of beautiful and crystal-clear Pokéblocks, Taillow's eyes immediately went straight.
Saliva unconsciously secreted in its mouth, brightening its originally somewhat gloomy mood from being attacked by other wild Pokémon.
"Want to try? The latest Pokéblocks I specially developed for you." Carver began setting the stage while checking Taillow's stats.
Through his careful management and feeding during this time, this Taillow's friendship toward him had reached 70.
But its current joy level was much lower. Not knowing what unhappy event it had encountered today, its joy level had just broken through negative numbers to reach 10.
Hearing Carver's words, Taillow nodded, then began eating heartily. That appearance showed none of its supposed pride.
"Taillow!"
Delicious!
Taillow's inner gloom was instantly completely dispelled.
Nothing could make a bird happier than eating delicious food!
"!"
A brilliant white light surged from Taillow's body.
Within the light, Taillow's figure rapidly changed.
It had evolved! It evolved into Swellow!
A very bright little sun appeared above Swellow's head.
This represented its extremely happy mood at the moment.
Simultaneously, a string of text appeared before Carver's eyes.
[Swellow's mood improved. Joy Level +80. Received Taillow's gift: "Intelligence Report 4."]
[Swellow revealed Intelligence Report 4 to you: Your cooking has completely conquered Swellow. If you can make delicious apple pie, perhaps Swellow will help you invite that Pokémon and its brother to come to the breeding house to taste apple pie.]
