Plop~
A dewdrop fell onto the tent.
Natsume felt a little stuffy in his chest. He opened his eyes and saw it.
The Bubblechu was snuggled up on his chest, fast asleep.
Natsume gently scooped it up and placed it on his pillow.
“Cha-nay~"
Outside the tent, the Tangrowth was practicing its newly learned skill.
It seemed the Tangrowth had gotten inspiration from cutting the Wawanka Berry.
It combined the Leaf Blade and the Vine Whip together.
This way, the Tangrowth could increase the attack range of its Leaf Blade by swinging its Vine Whip.
The Silcoon was curled up under a tree, yawning.
It also looked like it had just woken up.
“Good morning, Tangrowth, Silcoon.”
Natsume walked out of the tent.
“Cha-nay~"
The Tangrowth responded.
Silcoon was still wearing its usual expressionless face.
Natsume stretched, then took out Hakuryu's Poke Ball.
“Come out, Hakuryu.”
Hakuryu felt more comfortable sleeping inside Natsume's luxurious Poke Ball than outside.
So, it automatically went into the Poke Ball at night.
After releasing Hakuryu, Natsume noticed that the Houndoom sleeping by the campfire was gone.
“Tangrowth, where's Houndoom?”
“Cha-nay~"
The Tangrowth said that Houndoom had smelled the scent of an unfamiliar Pokemon.
So Houndoom had run off to chase it.
Natsume didn't think much of it.
There were too many Pokémon in this area that Houndoom had never seen before.
Natsume took out his phone and opened Farm Story.
The exploration time for Task One was 12 hours.
The way to complete it was for Natsume to travel through the forest for 12 hours, sleeping was not included in the exploration time.
So Natsume still had 4 hours to complete the exploration task.
“After we finish eating, I'll follow Silcoon towards its clan territory. This should allow me to complete the first exploration task.”
Natsume thought to himself and put away his phone.
Natsume started preparing breakfast.
Breakfast was simple; he cooked a pot of Wawanka Berry porridge and ate some fruit.
Houndoom's nose was very sensitive.
Just as Natsume finished cooking the porridge, Houndoom ran back.
“Houndoom, did you find that Pokemon?”
Natsume asked, looking at Houndoom.
“Awoo~"
Houndoom shook its head dejectedly.
“Don’t worry about it.”
Natsume comforted him, "This forest is so big, it's normal not to find it."
“Let’s eat.”
“Awoo~"
After breakfast.
Natsume cleaned up the camp.
Hakuryu put out the campfire with water.
Natsume and his companions started heading towards Silcoon's territory.
“Silcoon, how many members are there in your clan?”
Natsume asked curiously, looking at Silcoon.
Silcoon thought for a moment, then gave its answer.
“Bao-bao."
The leader of Silcoon's clan was a Spinda.
There were about twelve Spinda.
Including Silcoon, there were only two.
However, Silcoon liked to roam around.
Although the Spinda belonged to the Bug group in the Egg group, they were not classified as Insect Pokemon in the Pokemon classification.
They were Tailor Pokemon.
Most bug-type Pokemon, like Caterpie, Weedle, or Wurmple, would evolve into their final forms at level 10 after becoming a cocoon at level 7!
Therefore, even if the bug-type Pokemon had the worst talent, they could always evolve.
However, a Spinda needed to reach at least level 20 to evolve.
Although the power of Silcoon's clan was not very strong, the Spinda was very powerful and could protect them, allowing them to live a leisurely life in this forest.
Natsume and Silcoon chatted as they hurried towards Silcoon's territory.
“Raruu~"
Ralts appeared behind Natsume again.
It saw Houndoom following Natsume, sniffing around, and breathed a sigh of relief.
It almost got chased by this big dog.
…
Underground cave.
Bang~
Arbok used Iron Tail, smashing a rock wall blocking Wang Cheng and Chen Shan.
Inside the rock wall, several Iron Thorns quickly dispersed and left.
“Let’s not look anymore, take a break.”
Chen Shan threw the Life Detector in his hand on the ground and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
“We’ve turned over almost the entire underground area.”
“Do you think there’s a possibility that Tyranitar didn’t hide its egg down here?”
Chen Shan thought dejectedly, “Is it possible that it just randomly threw its egg into the forest?”
“Then, was it eaten by Arbok, a Pokemon that eats eggs?”
Wang Cheng thought for a moment, then said, “It's impossible!”
“Back then, that Tyranitar took a lot of attacks to protect its egg.”
“It would never just throw its egg away like that.”
Chen Shan said again, “Then maybe it was picked up by someone else?”
“After all, there was a lot of commotion this time, attracting a lot of people.”
Wang Cheng frowned, "We haven't found it after searching so much, how good would someone else's luck have to be?"
“You might as well say it was picked up by other wild Pokemon.”
Chen Shan was slightly taken aback when he heard this, “What did you say?”
Wang Cheng looked at Chen Shan, “I said it might have been picked up by another Pokemon.”
“Right, that’s it!”
Chen Shan suddenly stood up, excitedly circling in place, “I remember that there were indeed many wild Pokemon attracted at that time.”
“There was a Weavile, a Longtail, a Spinda… Spinda!”
Chen Shan put his hand on Wang Cheng's shoulder, excitedly said, “It's Spinda!”
“Spinda?”
Wang Cheng murmured, "The nature of Spinda is to take care of weak Pokemon."
“They will even help hatch other Pokemon's eggs. If it was Spinda, then it’s really possible!”
Crunch~
A Mawile suddenly popped out and opened its mouth to bite the Life Detector on the ground.
“Damn it, my equipment!”
Chen Shan urged, “Spit it out!”
“Coco~”
Mawile quickly bit the machine and ran towards the underground cave.
“Why bother with that broken thing?”
Wang Cheng pulled Chen Shan, excitedly said, “If we find Tyranitar's egg, we’ll be rich!”
