Chapter 586: Special Cuisine, Everyone's Wishes!
"Bikitini..."
Hearing Shizuru's words, Dreamy and Teddy's faces both showed expressions of sadness.
What a pitiful Pokemon!
"So, what are you planning to do next?" Shizuru asked.
Dreamy and Teddy looked at each other, and then they started rummaging through their bags. Soon, they took out the remaining Poke Fruits and Treefruits, which were few in number.
The two Pokemon held the Poke Fruits in their hands, looked around the castle hall, and called out to the surroundings:
"Miu!"
"Bikitini!"
There was no response.
"Miu?" Dreamy tilted her head.
Just then, Teddy saw a pair of big ears behind a stone pillar.
He immediately pointed with his bear paw and shouted, "Bikitini!"
Bikitini's ears twitched, and the next second, it saw the two Pokemon appear in front of it.
For a moment, their eyes met.
Bikitini was startled.
"Nini!"
It instinctively wanted to run away, but Dreamy and Teddy quickly grabbed its arms with their small hands.
Using too much force, the three Pokemon eventually let out a cry and lost their balance, falling to the ground in a heap.
When they got up, the three Pokemon stared at each other, noticing the dust on each other's faces, and then they burst out laughing.
"Bikitini!"
Dreamy also covered her mouth and giggled, "Miu~"
Bikitini looked at the two Pokemon with curiosity in its eyes, "Nini?"
Teddy rummaged through his backpack and took out a Poke Fruit that hadn't been broken in the fall, offering it to Bikitini.
"Bikitini!"
"Nini?"
Teddy nodded vigorously, "Bikitini!"
"Nini~!"
Realizing that the two Pokemon seemed to want to play with it, Bikitini was delighted. It happily accepted Teddy and Dreamy's gift.
Dreamy and Teddy also took out a Poke Fruit each, and the three Pokemon sat in the castle hall, enjoying the delicious Poke Fruits made by Shizuru.
After finishing the Poke Fruits, they started chasing and playing with each other in the castle, looking very happy.
The video call was still ongoing, and Shizuru witnessed this scene through the Lotad Phone's screen.
The three small-sized Pokemon playing together were incredibly adorable, and he felt his heart melting from their cuteness.
Thinking that the Poke Fruits might not be enough for the three of them, Shizuru immediately contacted Rapidash after ending the call and asked it to deliver more Poke Fruits and Energy Cubes to the Unova Region.
At noon, after the Nangguang Gym's work hours, Shizuru rode Gogoat back to the ranch as usual.
Along the way, Shizuru pondered how to break the barrier trapping Bikitini.
According to the anime's plot, the Guardian Pillars were a crucial element in maintaining the barrier, and to destroy it, one would have to start by demolishing those pillars.
However, in the movie, Bikitini clearly didn't want to leave Eindeoak. In the end, it didn't leave with Satoshi, who had saved it, but chose to stay there.
The reason was that Bikitini was the old king's Pokemon, and since the old king had lost his life due to excessive power consumption, Bikitini had been guarding that place, waiting for over a thousand seasons.
This kind of emotion... was truly heartrending.
Mythical Pokemon like Bikitini had an almost infinite lifespan, while the old king, being human, only had a few short decades of life.
Sigh.
Shizuru's feelings became somewhat complicated.
Just then, Gogoat landed in the ranch, and Shizuru jumped off its back, smiling as he patted the Pokemon and greeted those who came to welcome him home.
Shizuru walked towards the house, but when he opened the door, he didn't see Qi Shu in the room.
"Huh? Where's Qi Shu?" Shizuru asked.
"Aye!" His little sister, the meddlesome maid, pointed outside.
So Shizuru turned and went to the ranch, and sure enough, he saw Qi Shu's figure in the distance, near the fields.
Along with Qi Shu were Babubub, Skiddo, and Tridiglett, among others.
They were all gathered around a crop, seemingly observing something.
"What are you looking at?" Shizuru asked.
Hearing his voice, Qi Shu quickly turned and called out, "Come and see! This tomato is glowing! How amazing!"
A glowing tomato? Shizuru was immediately intrigued. He quickened his steps and took a closer look. Indeed, among the lush green crops, he saw a tomato emitting a rainbow glow.
A special crop!
Shizuru's gaze fixed on the tomato, and the next second, information about the tomato appeared in his mind.
【Wish Tomato: A special crop that, when made into a dish, will have the effect "Wish."】
The description was brief, but it instantly captured Shizuru's attention.
Wish?
"Is that what you meant?" Qi Shu asked curiously.
"In short, the power of the Riding Goat has caused the crops here to mutate, and these mutated crops have special effects," Shizuru explained.
Special effects? Qi Shu instantly thought of the magical dishes Shizuru had made before, like the translation peanut brittle that allowed her to understand Pokemon speech.
She looked at the vast field of crops before her, took a small breath, and exclaimed, "Do all the crops have such effects?"
"Of course not," Shizuru raised an eyebrow and stepped forward to pluck the tomato. "The mutation isn't guaranteed; it only happens with a very small chance."
Qi Shu instantly felt a sense of regret.
"Let's go eat!"
Shizuru held the tomato and led Qi Shu and a few Pokemon back home.
After lunch, Qi Shu, driven by her curiosity about the special crops, decided to watch Shizuru cook the rainbow-glowing tomato.
"Don't you want to rest for a bit?" Shizuru took out an egg from the refrigerator and asked.
"I'll rest later," Qi Shu asked eagerly. "What dish are you making?"
"Tomato Scramble," Shizuru introduced. "It combines the sweet and sour flavors of tomatoes with eggs, creating a unique, tangy taste."
He heated oil in a pan, and once it was hot enough, he added the tomato and egg, stirring them together.
Soon, a tangy aroma filled the air.
"It's done!"
Shizuru poured the scrambled eggs into a plate, and the next moment, detailed information about the dish appeared in his mind.
【Wishful Tomato Scramble (S): A dish made with special crops and high-quality eggs, rumored to grant wishes.
Dish Effect: Wish. After consumption, it can fulfill a wish. The stronger the wish, the better the effect. Limited to one consumption per person.
Evaluation: Regret, worry, and sadness will eventually dissipate.】
"Hmm?" Seeing the effect of the dish, Shizuru froze in place.
Such an exaggerated effect?!
"What's wrong?" Qi Shu asked anxiously.
Shizuru muttered, "This dish can help fulfill wishes..."
"What?" Qi Shu was shocked.
"I don't know the exact effect, but I can sense its power..." After a moment of thought, Shizuru made a decision. He would first test it on a Pokemon.
If there was any Pokemon on the ranch with a strong wish... Shizuru found Fairy Eevee and took a small portion of the scrambled eggs, saying to Fairy Eevee, "Try it. After eating this, your wish might come true!"
"Bui?!" Fairy Eevee exclaimed, followed by a burst of excitement.
Was this for real?
Could this dish give it the power to defeat the dragon? Fairy Eevee didn't hesitate and eagerly ate the tangy tomato and egg mixture.
Shizuru watched Fairy Eevee with anticipation.
Fairy Eevee seemed to be enduring some power, its eyes tightly shut and body slightly trembling.
The next moment, Fairy Eevee suddenly opened its eyes and let out a loud cry.
"Buiii!"
The powerful sound wave, like a physical force, destroyed everything in its path, causing the ground to shake as if in sync with the cry.
Shizuru covered his ears, but Fairy Eevee's cry still penetrated his eardrums, echoing in his mind and causing a headache.
That was... Boom Voice!
The Wishful Tomato Scramble had helped Fairy Eevee master Boom Voice! Shizuru didn't need to guess to know what Fairy Eevee's wish was.
It wanted to defeat the dragon, Chielem, and become a great hero!
And for Fairy Eevee with the Fairy Skin ability, Boom Voice would undoubtedly be a significant advantage in its battle against Chielem.
After the roar, Fairy Eevee excitedly looked at the grass in front of it, which had been destroyed by its own power.
What incredible strength! Its wish had come true!
Fairy Eevee turned around, its eyes filled with determination, and shouted, "Buii!" (Shizuru, take me to fight the dragon!)
Shizuru: "..."
This wasn't enough! Shizuru thought for a moment and said, "If you can withstand three attacks from Gogoat without falling, I'll take you to challenge the dragon."
Upon hearing this, Fairy Eevee immediately challenged Gogoat.
However, Gogoat only needed a slight movement to send Fairy Eevee flying.
"Ah..."
"It seems this power isn't enough," Shizuru said to Fairy Eevee, whose face was filled with disappointment.
"Buii..." Fairy Eevee was deeply discouraged.
"But don't worry, I've prepared a special training plan for you. If you can complete it, you'll definitely have the strength to face the dragon," Shizuru comforted.
Chielem was a Dragon/Ice-type Pokemon, and Dragon-type moves had no effect on Fairy Eevee. So, Fairy Eevee only needed to focus on training Ice-type moves.
In the ranch, there happened to be an Icebu and a Frostbird on the World Tree, both of which could provide specialized training for the Fairy Eevee.
Shizuru decided to deal with this matter later and instead focused on sharing the remaining Tomato Scramble with the other Pokemon at home.
At Shizuru's call, the ranch's Pokemon quickly gathered.
Gogoat, Skiddo, Rapidash, Babu Tubba, Noivern, Eevil Pom...
Although there was only one tomato, it was enough to make a large pot of Tomato Scramble. A small bowl for each Pokemon should be sufficient for those in the ranch.
Shizuru briefly explained the effects of the dish to the Pokemon and then shared the meal with them.
Gogoat looked at the dish, and it suddenly remembered that it had eaten something similar before. But what wish had it made back then?
Gogoat couldn't quite recall, but it didn't matter. It just needed to make another wish!
"Ah gah see~"
With this thought, Gogoat gobbled up the Tomato Scramble from the small bowl in front of it and then made a wish in its heart:
It wanted to stay with Shizuru forever!
A moment later, Gogoat opened its eyes, but nothing around it had changed, and it wasn't sure if its wish had come true.
Skiddo held its small bowl, looking around at everyone and then at the impressive Gogoat. It silently made a wish in its heart:
It wanted to become as strong and reliable as Gogoat, protecting Shizuru just like it!
Rapidash, Babu Tubba, Noivern, Eevil Pom, and the other Pokemon also made their wishes.
Although Shizuru didn't know what they wished for, he noticed that after Noivern made its wish, a shower of food began to fall from above, right on top of its head.
Various breads, sausages, jerky, candies, and Treefruit rained down, forming a small mound on the grass, attracting the attention of the surrounding Pokemon.
Noivern's eyes lit up, and it excitedly used its Wing Claw to pick up a piece of jerky, examining it as if to check if the food was real.
Shizuru: "..."
Without a doubt, Noivern must have wished for "an endless supply of food."
As Shizuru watched the Pokemon around him enjoying the meal, he exchanged a glance with Qi Shu, and they both finished their dishes.
Shizuru's wish was to live happily forever with Gogoat, the Pokemon in the ranch, Qi Shu, and the children.
When everything was over, Shizuru noticed that there was one last portion of Wish Omelette left in the pot.
As he pondered what to do, he received a call from Teddy and Dreamy.
Answering the call, Shizuru saw through the Lotad Phone's screen that Dreamy, Teddy, and Bikitini were sitting at the top of the Earth Sword Fortress, their faces filled with worry as they gazed at the distant valley.
From their expressions, it was clear that they had become good friends.
"Miu...?" (Shizuru, is there a way to help Bikitini break free from its seal?)
Teddy also looked at him expectantly because Bikitini was so pitiful... It was so lonely for a Pokemon to be stuck here all alone!
Bikitini turned to the Lotad Phone's screen, blinking its eyes and looking at the human on the other side, making a questioning sound.
"Nini..."
It had heard the story the human told earlier and seemed to know a lot about Bikitini.
Shizuru anticipated Dreamy and Teddy's reaction and nodded, saying, "There is a way. All you need to do is destroy the stone pillars maintaining the barrier, and Bikitini will regain its freedom."
Dreamy and Teddy immediately decided to go and destroy the stone pillars to help Bikitini regain its freedom.
The purpose of the Guardian Pillars and the barrier was to gather Bikitini's power, and destroying them would not affect Eindeoak.
But would Bikitini be willing to leave Eindeoak?
Shizuru understood the deep bond between Pokemon and their trainers. Some Pokemon might never leave the place where their trainer had passed away.
Bikitini was one such Pokemon. In the anime, there was also a Ghastly that guarded a ghost ship because its deceased trainer had been the captain of that vessel.
Just then, as Shizuru was deep in thought, he noticed the last portion of Wish Omelette beside him.
He asked, "Bikitini, do you have a wish?"
A wish? Bikitini was taken aback.
Shizuru continued, "I have something here that might be able to grant any wish you make."
Upon hearing this, Bikitini's eyes lit up with hope. Was it really possible?
Shizuru's next words struck a chord in Bikitini's heart.
"You might even be able to see the Elder King again."
Bikitini froze, tears welling up in its eyes.
