Chapter 403: Hatching! Brave? No, Glutton!
Chapter 403: Hatching! Brave? No, Glutton!
"Hatching at this moment?" Sharon exclaimed in surprise.
The egg was hatching amidst the explosions.
What kind of birth celebration was this?
When our partner was born, the entire Dandelion Island was exploding and cheering for you?
Gramps and the others noticed the changes in the Poke Egg, and their gazes collectively fixed on it.
However, the self-destruct sequence of the Rampardos continued.
"Ku!!"
The Bear Pupil's expression turned serious in an instant.
We will celebrate the arrival of our new member with a thrilling victory!
As the saying goes, the louder the noise at birth, the greater the future achievements!
Hearing this, the little ones responded in unison.
"Guka," Charcoal Little Servant carefully held the Poke Egg, which had already cracked open a bit.
If not for his hesitation to put it down, he would have surely charged over and scattered those Rampardos!
"A Poke Egg needs a quiet environment to hatch!"
Sharon spoke in a low voice, and with a wave of her hand, she commanded, "Lie Yao Lu Qian, Lucario, end the battle swiftly!"
Jinghe's eyes twitched slightly.
A quiet environment, are you sure?
"Dragon Dive!"
"Roar!!!"
"Wail!!!"
Lie Yao Lu Qian and the Swift Dragon almost simultaneously donned a bluish-purple dragon cloak, plummeting vertically from the sky.
Boom! Boom!!
A deafening roar reverberated.
Crack! Crack!
The fine cracks on the Poke Egg became more apparent.
For a moment, the two sides seemed to create a peculiar symphony, with one side exploding and the other cracking its shell.
Gigaforg swung his hammer, Bear Pupil threw punches, Ice Nine-Tails froze, and Gramps tossed out a Shadow Ball.
Under the relentless bombardment and attacks, the Rampardos fell one by one, and the hail of rocks gradually subsided.
After defeating this group of "suicidal" Rampardos, the little ones returned, gathering around the Poke Egg from a distance.
"Cha," Gigaforg blinked, looking a bit flustered as he rubbed the hammer handle.
Am I going to be a big sister?
Although Gigaforg was the third Pokemon to join the team, if you were to consider age, it was undoubtedly the youngest member of Jinghe's original team.
"Hngga?"
Gramps rested his chin, deep in thought.
How should we pass down the "Old Jing Family's Hypnosis" this time?
As the first inheritor of the "Old Jing Family's Hypnosis," Kikyo was genuinely racking his brains over this matter.
Jinghe stepped forward.
He took a deep breath.
The requirements aren't high; a smooth hatching is all that's needed!
Whether it can eat or not, whether it's mischievous or not, Jinghe only hoped for a smooth hatching process.
Sharon stood by, feeling touched.
It was truly fortunate to witness the hatching of a Pokemon again; it was the birth of life and the beginning of a legacy.
When life encounters life, something is always created.
At that moment, Sharon suddenly felt a desire to hatch a Pokemon herself.
"Here it comes," Sharon whispered.
Jinghe nodded, focusing intently on the Poke Egg.
Crack! Crack-crack—
As the eggshell shattered, a dull-horned Pokemon pushed against the shell and emerged.
Soon after, two tiny hands poked out, waving adorably.
It seemed the hatching was going smoothly.
"It looks like a Tyrogue?" Sharon whispered.
"Haha," Jinghe laughed bitterly.
Although he had mentally prepared himself, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled.
But now, he had come to terms with it.
As long as it's healthy and happy, that's all that matters.
Crack-crack—
The cracks on the Poke Egg grew larger, eventually giving way to the constant headbutts from the little one inside.
Finally, the shell shattered completely, and a newly hatched Tyrogue, still wearing half of its shell, appeared before Jinghe.
"Yoo-chi."
Tyrogue's eyelined eyes slowly opened, and in its red irises, Jinghe's face was reflected as it let out a soft call.
Seeing this, Jinghe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It looked very healthy.
The little one broke off a piece of the eggshell and popped it into its mouth.
Crackle, crackle—
But Tyrogue's hatching seemed destined to be anything but peaceful.
As Jinghe, Sharon, and the other little ones enjoyed the moment of tranquility and joy, the sound that had appeared earlier once again disrupted the peace.
"Hsss!!"
Amidst the rustling leaves, a Pokemon with a brownish-yellow body resembling a mantis emerged from the forest.
Its two massive axes reflected a chilling light, and its expression was unusually stern, like a warrior guarding the final checkpoint.
Upon seeing this Pokemon, Jinghe's eyes widened in surprise, while Sharon, in addition to her astonishment, felt perplexed.
This Pokemon was one she had never seen before! Axe Mantis!
"Unknown species, unknown species, Rotom!" The Rotom Pokedex malfunctioned.
Axe Mantis, an alternative evolution of Flying Mantyke, was an axe-wielding Pokemon with Bug and Rock attributes.
Belonging to the Verdant Period, this Pokemon should have been extinct or disappeared by now.
Unexpectedly, on this island, they encountered an Axe Mantis!
Hoo—
The Axe Mantis raised its arm, its sharp axe, full of notches at the tip, pointing at Jinghe and the others. It seemed ready to attack if they took another step forward.
The more notches on an Axe Mantis's axe, the more experienced it was in battle, and the sharper its axe became.
And from the sound it had just made, it was clear that the previous rolling stone attack was indeed its doing.
"What kind of Pokemon is this?" Sharon couldn't help but ask.
"Yoji!"
At that moment, a grayish-green figure darted past Jinghe and the others.
The next second.
They saw Axe Mantis holding an axe, with a small green creature hanging on it, its sharp teeth biting and grinding on the axe, making a "squeak squeak" sound.
"Ssss (⊙_⊙)?"
Forget about Jinghe and the others, even Axe Mantis himself was stunned, looking at the Tyrogue biting his axe with a blank expression, completely confused.
What the heck is this thing?
Although his axe was full of notches, it didn't mean it was fragile. It was a testament to the countless battles it had endured, as hard as a rock.
Crack!!
As soon as this thought arose, he felt the axe tremble, and the sound of it cracking echoed.
A large notch appeared on the axe, or more accurately, a bite mark.
And Tyrogue fell on his butt to the ground.
"Gobble gobble," it chewed.
Suddenly, Sharon covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "What a brave little guy."
Brave?
Jinghe's mouth twitched.
Is this bravery?
He only saw a glutton, a little hothead, and a little fool.
Did the 'Yuxie Claw' you gave him go to waste?
Where's the wisdom of the God of Wisdom?
"Ssss!!"
At this moment, Axe Mantis finally reacted, enraged and furious, he roared and raised his axe to chop at the small Tyrogue.
Jinghe's expression changed slightly, "Genggui!"
"Hngga~!"
Genggui cackled, and with a swift movement, he appeared in front of Axe Mantis, sending him a 'Sleepytime Platter' under his angry gaze.
Axe Mantis hadn't even had the chance to vent his anger before he fell heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Jinghe walked forward and picked up Tyrogue.
Whoa, even a freshly hatched Tyrogue wasn't light.
"Yoji?"
Tyrogue pouted, and it was clear that Axe Mantis's axe shard was difficult to chew. He kept changing his position, but didn't seem to want to spit it out.
The little guy tilted his head, and upon seeing Jinghe, he immediately smiled happily, rubbing his small hands together as if asking for a hug.
Its appearance was like a miniature dinosaur, with a grayish-green skin as rough as rocks, a long, blunt horn on its head, and a short, swaying tail.
"Tyrogue, a Rockskin Pokemon with Rock and Ground attributes, is the Juvenile Form of Hitmonlee. It has a voracious appetite and constantly eats while awake, rumored to be able to devour an entire mountain of Rotom!"
Jinghe's cheek twitched.
No need to emphasize Rotom.
Gobble, gobble—
Axe Mantis's axe shard was slowly being chewed to pieces by Tyrogue.
With those teeth, do you really think a mountain is all it can handle? It seems like it could even handle diamonds, having just been born and already gnawing on Axe Mantis's prized axe.
Jinghe put it down on the ground.
Sharon crouched beside it, her eyes narrowed as she said, "What a cute little guy."
Cute?
Well, it was quite cute, setting aside the fact that it would have a huge appetite in the future.
Jinghe sighed, "Let's deal with Axe Mantis first."
"Axe Mantis?"
Sharon looked at the Axe Mantis lying on the ground, twitching slightly. In its dream, it probably wasn't all about Tyrogue, right?
"Do you know this Pokemon?"
To be honest, with Sharon's knowledge, she didn't expect there to be a Pokemon she didn't recognize.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this is a Pokemon left over from the Verdant Period."
After a pause, Jinghe added, "Or, it's a tool left over from the Verdant Period that caused Flying Mantyke to evolve into Axe Mantis."
Axe Mantis requires Flying Mantyke to use a Black Orb to evolve.
"The Verdant Period?" Sharon muttered.
She didn't ask further about why Jinghe knew all this.
After all, he even knew about things related to Regice, Dialga, and Palkia, so there wasn't much surprise about a single Axe Mantis.
Sharon had a feeling.
This Axe Mantis might become an important breakthrough for her in this research project.
He didn't have any intention of capturing another Axe Mantis.
The key point was that if he did capture it, there was a high probability it would suddenly disappear a few days later?
Plop—
Finally, Tyrogue finished chewing and swallowing the axe shard of Axe Mantis.
"Yoji."
The little guy looked down at his belly, patted it lightly, and seemed to have no sense of being full. He happily ran towards his eggshell.
Then he started crunching on it, bite by bite.
Genggui and the others curiously surrounded the little guy.
Eating stones? Eating eggshells?
This little guy's appetite was quite good.
"Yoji?"
It seemed like Tyrogue noticed the gaze of Genggui and the others, and he looked up in confusion, scanning the area before his eyes showed signs of struggle and hesitation.
Finally, he seemed to make a decision.
"Yoji!"
Crack—
He broke the eggshell and then offered it to Genggui and the others, smiling and calling out softly.
"Yoji?"
Do you want to eat it?
