Chapter 522: Little Fukurou and the Pokemon Doctor
Chapter 522: Little Fukurou and the Pokemon Doctor
At the same time, in the Pokemon Guild.
Led by Babo and Frostine, Little Fukurou curiously toured the place.
The bustling scenes around him reflected in his eyes, and Little Fukurou couldn't help but murmur, "Hoothoot!" (It's so lively here!)
It was even more bustling than the ranch!
Babo nodded, "Babo!" (Of course, this place is Naoki's wonderland, specially created for Pokemon!)
Frostine, by his side, happily added, "Mama~" (That's right! Everyone lives, plays, and makes delicious treats together. It's so heartwarming!)
Little Fukurou turned his head left and right, his eyes dazzled by the fantastic facilities and unfamiliar Pokemon.
"Hoothoot... Hoothoot!" he asked, pointing to one of the buildings.
Hearing this, Babo and Frostine looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a room with an open door where many Pokemon were sitting.
The Pokemon were gathered around a bar, drinking from cups and looking very cheerful.
Babo introduced, "Babo babo." (That's the Pokemon Tavern, a place for Pokemon to relax and drink.)
Frostine explained, "Mama!" (The alcohol is delicious! Drinking a cup will make you feel dizzy, and walking will feel like you're stepping on cotton candy!)
Little Fukurou had never experienced such a feeling before, and upon hearing Frostine's description, he eagerly wanted to give it a try.
However, he was stopped by the serious expression on Babo's face.
"Babo!" (Naoki also said that Pokemon who aren't fully grown aren't allowed to drink alcohol willy-nilly!)
Little Fukurou immediately pointed to a tiny Whismur in the Pokemon Tavern.
"Hoothoot!" (That Pokemon is drinking too!)
Babo didn't know what to do and stood there scratching his head in dilemma, "Babo..."
"Mama~" Frostine said gently, "Mama?" (It's fine to have just a little. Besides, when I drank alcohol last time, Naoki didn't stop me.)
However, in truth, Frostine was already five years old in Pokemon years. Even though she had been in this world for five years, Frostine still often saw herself as a young, immature Pokemon.
Only when facing younger Pokemon or the giant Saltrock Golems would Frostine display an older sister-like demeanor.
This side of her made the other Pokemon view her as a gentle and considerate big sister.
True to form, upon hearing Frostine's words, Little Fukurou's eyes lit up, and he looked at Frostine expectantly.
"Hoothoot!"
Frostine, like a little adult, patted her chest with her small hand.
"Mama!" (Don't worry, it'll be fine!)
Then, the two Pokemon went to the Pokemon Tavern and asked the Meowth and Pikachu waiters for two cups of fruit wine.
Watching this scene, Babo eventually sighed helplessly.
"Babo..."
The sweet and mellow fruit wine was delightful, and Frostine immediately showed a look of enjoyment.
Seeing Frostine's reaction, Little Fukurou also followed suit and drank greedily.
After finishing the cup of fruit wine, both Pokemon felt a little dizzy.
Frostine loved this tipsy feeling and asked, "Mama?" (See? I told you it would feel like walking on cotton candy. Wasn't I right?)
"Hoothoot!" Little Fukurou nodded vigorously.
After experiencing the tavern, Babo and Frostine continued to guide Little Fukurou to other places.
"Mama!" (This is the dessert shop! Usually, we make delicious cakes here using cream and flour!)
"Mama." (This is the sushi shop, run by Miliritas and the others! But sushi isn't very tasty. I still prefer the cakes made by Naoki.)
"Mama!" (This is the Adventure Guild headquarters, where Pokemon take on requests. Naoki said that the more requests we complete, the stronger we'll become!)
"Mama." (The building next to the Guild is the item shop. The MooMoo Milk and berries sold there can help Pokemon restore their energy!)
Little Fukurou, Frostine, and Babo stood in front of the display cabinet at the entrance of the item shop.
Inside, the shelves were filled with a variety of berries—some for restoring energy and others for curing status conditions. The selection was very comprehensive.
The shopkeeper of the item shop was a Vileplume, and upon seeing the customers, it eagerly approached them.
"Dafu~" (Welcome, customers! Our shop has a wide variety of berries! And besides berries, we've recently added an even more amazing item to our inventory~)
"Babo?" Babo was a little confused at this statement as he looked around the shelves but couldn't spot anything new.
.
Turning around, Bawhaw reached to the bottom shelf and retrieved a small package. She opened it to reveal a handful of ash-like substance.
"Dafu." Bawhaw introduced, "This is Sacred Ash. It can instantly heal injured Pokemon, no matter how severe the wound. Just apply this ash to the injury, and the Pokemon will immediately recover."
The Phoenix King would occasionally leave the World Tree and fly to other places. To prevent any mishaps and potential dangers that the Pokemon living on the World Tree might encounter in his absence, he left behind some of his Sacred Ashes so they could heal themselves without his Holy Flames.
"Of course, these Sacred Ashes do run out from time to time," Bawhaw continued. "But whenever the Phoenix King leaves the World Tree, he makes sure to restock our supply. He is grateful for the blessings of the World Tree, and he holds a soft spot for this place and the Pokemon who call it home."
Listening to Bawhaw's description, Little Fukurou's face lit up with surprise. "Hoothoot! Wow, that's amazing!"
Injury was a frightening prospect, and before coming to the ranch, Little Fukurou had once fought with other wild Pokemon and sustained injuries. The wounds had hurt, and it took a long time to heal. If he had this ash back then, would he have recovered instantly?!
However, unlike Little Fukurou's astonished reaction, Babo and Frostine remained unfazed by Bawhaw's revelation. Instead, Babo was reminded of the Life Goat Milk back at the ranch.
"Babo..." Babo spoke up, "The effect of this Sacred Ash is identical to the milk produced by the riding goats..."
Bawhaw: ?!!!
"Dafu?!"
"How is that possible? This is the Sacred Ash of the Phoenix King! Nothing in this world could possibly replicate its effects!" Bawhaw exclaimed, her face filled with disbelief. She thought this Pokemon must be lying!
To prove his point, Babo immediately flew back to the ranch and returned with a bottle of Life Goat Milk from the refrigerator.
To compare the effects of the Life Goat Milk and the Sacred Ash, the group then made their way to the Pokemon Hospital.
There, they found two Pokemon who had been injured in battle—a Treecko and a Mudbray.
Babo and Bawhaw applied the Sacred Ash and the Life Goat Milk to the respective Pokemon.
In the blink of an eye, the wounds on the Treecko and Mudbray vanished, and they were restored to full health.
Bawhaw was left stunned by this display.
"What kind of milk is that? Its effects are identical to the Sacred Ash of the Phoenix King?!"
Proudly, Babo declared, "Babo! It's the Life Goat Milk from Naoki's ranch!"
Little Fukurou looked around at the injured Pokemon, a curious expression on his face, and asked, "Hoothoot? Why are there so many injured Pokemon here? Where are we?"
Frostine explained, "Mama... This is the Pokemon Hospital on the World Tree. But currently, we don't have any professional Pokemon doctors, so these Pokemon can't receive proper treatment..."
Puzzled, Little Fukurou inquired, "Hoothoot? Why not?"
Frostine didn't have a clear answer to that question either. Thinking about the origins of these Pokemon, she replied, "Mama? Perhaps we just haven't encountered a doctor Pokemon yet?"
Just then, Naoki, having finished creating the Snowfield Biome, returned to the topmost level of the World Tree with Golduck. He found Babo and the others at the Pokemon Hospital.
Seeing Frostine and Little Fukurou deep in thought, Naoki was surprised. "What are you thinking about?"
The group turned to see Naoki and Golduck approaching.
Seizing the opportunity, Little Fukurou voiced the question on his mind, "Hoothoot? Why isn't there a Pokemon doctor here?"
"Hmm?" Naoki looked at Little Fukurou, taken aback. "A Pokemon doctor?"
Little Fukurou nodded eagerly, "Hoothoot! If there was a doctor, these injured Pokemon could be cared for, and their wounds would heal faster!"
Naoki soon understood Little Fukurou's concern.
As expected of the kind and gentle nature of the Girlyeen family! It was said that even wild Girlyeens would offer their nutrient-rich eggs to injured Pokemon, helping them recover quickly. Even before evolving, Little Fukurou already possessed a compassionate heart.
With a smile, Naoki explained, "The World Tree currently lacks a suitable Pokemon to serve as a doctor. However, there is one Pokemon who might be a good fit.
Little Fukurou paused for a moment, processing this information before realizing something.
"Eh? You mean me?!" Little Fukurou exclaimed, pointing at himself.
Naoki nodded. "That's right. Because Girlieens have kind hearts and are gentle caretakers of injured Pokemon, they are the most suitable Pokemon to be doctors."
Hearing this, Little Fukurou hesitated.
But he hasn't evolved into a Girlieen yet!
However, Naoki had no intention of forcing Little Fukurou to become a doctor; it was entirely up to him.
"Don't worry, I'm just saying it as a possibility. If you want to be a doctor, go for it. If not, that's fine too."
Little Fukurou actually quite liked the idea.
He looked at the poisoned and paralyzed Pokemon, remembering how pitiful and painful they had looked lying there without anyone to care for them. He felt a sense of compassion for them.
If no one took care of those Pokemon, they would be miserable! Little Fukurou thought. With that, he made up his mind.
Decision made! Since there isn't a Pokemon doctor here, I'll become the hospital's doctor and take care of these Pokemon! "Houk!" Little Fukurou shared his decision with Naoki.
Naoki was a little surprised and cautioned, "Becoming a Pokemon doctor isn't that easy."
"Houk?"
"Being a Pokemon doctor requires a lot of knowledge. For example, you need to be able to assess a Pokemon's status, determine if they are injured or poisoned, identify the right berries, and then use those berries to help them heal," Naoki explained, giving Little Fukurou a heads-up about the challenges ahead.
However, Little Fukurou was undeterred.
"Houk!" Now that he had made up his mind, he wouldn't give up!
"Wow, I didn't expect you to be so determined," Naoki said, a little taken aback by Little Fukurou's resolve.
"Sure, when I have some free time, I can teach you what you need to know about being a doctor," he agreed.
Becoming a Pokemon doctor required specialized training.
In the human world, not only did Nurse Joy and her partners' Pokemon attend nursing school, but some unexpected individuals had also walked that path.
If Naoki recalled correctly, one of Team Rocket's trio, Musashi, had also studied there.
During her time at the nursing school, she had met and become friends with a Girlieen.
However, because Musashi, being human, couldn't learn the singing move that soothed Pokemon, she was unable to graduate and had to give up her studies. She stayed on quietly until her Girlieen friend graduated, only then leaving the nursing school with a peaceful mind.
In addition to teaching Little Fukurou how to identify berries and assess injuries, Naoki thought he could also take him to the Pokemon Center in the town for some hands-on experience and ask the Nurse Joy there to teach Little Fukurou how to care for Pokemon.
However, there was no rush, as Little Fukurou had not yet evolved into a Girlieen.
The next morning, after finishing his work on the ranch, Naoki, as usual, passed through the Reversal World and arrived in the Alola region to continue his tournament.
The opponents in the Super League of the Royal Dome varied greatly in strength, some being very weak while others were on the level of Gym Leaders, creating a mixed bag of challenges.
Scallion Duck and Frostine easily defeated these opponents, leading Naoki to a winning streak that took them all the way to the Advanced League, earning enough points to advance to the Master League.
Their consecutive victories and highly effective strategies attracted the attention of many spectators.
In just a few days, Naoki, in his Incineroar form, gained quite a fan following.
Some fans even made light-up signs, cheer sticks, and life-size cutouts, displaying them on the Royal Avenue in front of the Royal Dome.
Every time Naoki passed by, he felt embarrassed and silently vowed to never return after obtaining the Island Challenge certificate.
Naoki took a deep breath and walked into the Royal Dome.
Today was his last match in the Advanced League, and if he won, he would advance to the Master League and face off against the royal masked man, Professor Kukui.
Meanwhile, in the Reversal World...
Dialga watched the live broadcast of Naoki's match on the Rotom Phone with intense enthusiasm.
Having watched every match without fail, Dialga was very familiar with the tournament rules of the Royal Dome.
It knew that if Naoki won this match, he would advance to the Master League.
Dialga's heart raced with excitement.
It's almost time! I'm about to make my grand entrance!
Humans, prepare to be amazed!
