Chingling, the pre-evolution of Chimecho.
Compared to Pokémon like Aggron and Flygon, Chimecho is not very good at Pokémon battles.
Through centuries of coexistence, they have completely integrated into human life.
Chimecho likes to hang from branches or the eaves of houses with the suction cups on its head, and when the hot season arrives, it flies around actively, looking like a string of wind chimes.
When a gentle breeze blows, Chimecho will emit a clear and pleasant ringing sound.
Chimecho has integrated into human life in this way; they hang like wind chimes under the eaves, and people also believe that the sound of Chimecho will bring them happiness and good luck.
In the anime, James, one of Team Rockets's trio, has a Chimecho.
Kawaki looked at the egg; if nothing unexpected happened, the Chimecho egg probably wouldn't sell for now.
"...Forget it, if it doesn't sell, I'll just raise it myself," Kawaki thought to himself.
There was just a vacant spot under the eaves of the Breeding House, which could be left for Chimecho.
Next was the Castform that would hatch in three days.
Kawaki had great use for this Pokémon; with her, the herb garden could achieve automated watering.
Kawaki put down the egg in his hand and got up to go downstairs to check the herb garden.
The batch of herbs and fruits he had planted last time had already begun to sprout under the careful care of Oddish.
The small seedlings were neatly arranged in the furrows, growing very well.
The fruit trees next to them had produced another batch of fruit; Kawaki called Bewear and took out a basket to pick them all.
The basket was full of plump, juicy fruits; Kawaki took them home and divided them into two parts: one part for juicing to feed the Pokémon, and the other part he planned to use to make Energy Cubes.
In the evening, after dinner, Kawaki and a group of Pokémon gathered in the living room to watch TV.
A news program was playing on TV, featuring recent major events in the Hoenn region, such as large numbers of wild Pokémon appearing in certain areas, or incidents where wild Pokémon lost control and attacked citizens near certain cities, and so on.
Besides that, it occasionally broadcast news about other regions.
It had been almost two hundred years since the Pokémon League was established, and over the years, various regions had gradually strengthened their connections.
Kawaki watched with great interest, and the group of Pokémon beside him were also very curious about this talking, glowing box.
Watching TV was something they had never experienced in their previous Pokémon lives.
"Clefairy?!"
When they saw a Pokémon appear on TV, a Clefairy couldn't help but let out a surprised cry.
Was that Pokémon trapped inside that small box?
Another Clefairy even picked up a broom, intending to smash the TV in anger, wanting to rescue the trapped Pokémon from it.
"!!!"
Kawaki was shocked and quickly stopped him: "Stop!"
"Clefairy?" Clefairy stopped and looked back with a puzzled expression.
"First, put down the broom. The Pokémon in there is just a recording; no Pokémon is trapped inside!" Kawaki explained, and at the same time introduced to a few Pokémon: "This is a television."
"Woof?" Television? What is a television?
"It's a machine that can play videos." Kawaki didn't know how to explain it either, so he simply picked up the remote control and changed the channel.
Soon, the screen jumped to a cooking show.
On the screen, a beautiful girl wearing a chef's hat was making a sweet and soft cream cake with an Alcremie.
The pink background, the soft white cream like clouds, paired with a few strawberries, looked both healing and tempting.
The Clefairys were almost instantly attracted by the strawberry cream cake on the TV.
"Clefairy!"
Some Clefairys even started to drool.
That thing called cream cake looked so delicious!
Kawaki: "..."
He didn't mind making one for this group of Clefairys to try, but there were no eggs or cream at home, so it was like a clever woman having no rice to cook.
However, there was a dessert shop in Fallarbor Town; he could go buy some later to let the Pokémon in the Breeding House try.
Thinking that Bewear, Growlithe, Clefairy, and Oddish might have never eaten cream cake, Kawaki suddenly felt a pang of guilt, as if he owed them something.
Tomorrow, he must go to Fallarbor Town and buy a bunch of cream cakes for the Pokémon at home to try!
When Kawaki told his plan to the group of Pokémon, they immediately cheered.
"Clefairy~!"
They looked just like children.
Kawaki couldn't help but curl his lips and say, "Don't worry."
The Clefairys continued to watch the cooking show in front of them.
Growlithe, Oddish, and Bewear were also very interested in the desserts in it.
Outside the window, a light rain had started at some point, pattering on the roof of the Breeding House.
On a rainy night, Kawaki and the Pokémon snuggled on the sofa, watching TV.
He looked around at the group of Pokémon beside him, feeling a surge of emotion.
Who hasn't fantasized about living with Pokémon when they were little?
And now, the fantasy had become reality.
This feeling... was amazing!
*
The next morning, it was still drizzling, making it unsuitable to go out.
Looking at the damp air outside the window, Kawaki didn't want to go out and decided to wait until the rain stopped before going to Fallarbor Town to buy cream cake.
However, his not wanting to go out didn't mean others wouldn't.
Early in the morning, Steven, who had returned from Mossdeep City to fulfill his promise, knocked on the door of the Breeding House.
His hair was wet from the rain, clinging to his forehead, and his clothes had noticeable water stains.
Seeing the visitor, Kawaki was slightly stunned.
Steven walked in, came to the counter, then took off his backpack and took out Moon Stones one by one.
The elegant young master of a wealthy family spoke, "Our agreement is now fulfilled."
Steven brought a total of twenty Moon Stones, which were not only enough to evolve all the Clefairys in the Breeding House into Clefables but also had eight left over, showing his immense wealth.
"That's too many..." Kawaki said in surprise.
Steven, however, smiled slightly, "These Moon Stones are far less valuable than the meteorite you gave me. Also, to thank you for your trust, please accept this extra gift."
With that, Steven took out another stone from his pocket.
It was a beautiful stone shaped like a marble, with peculiar patterns inside.
Kawaki subconsciously looked at the stone.
The next second, the information about that stone appeared in his mind.
[Dragonite ite: A magical Mega Stone that allows Dragonite to Mega Evolve during battle when held.]
