Popularization: Pokémon's professional application

【Welcome back, Master】

"Turn on all the air purifiers and adjust the purification level to the highest level. Fill the bathtub with water and purify the water to drinking level."

[Good host, we are making arrangements for you]

Under the operation of the smart housekeeper, the empty home becomes lively.

The house Zhuang Hong lives in is a large apartment of more than 300 square meters, and this level is already very high-end in today's era.

The environment has become harsh, and the area suitable for human life has become smaller. Naturally, the living area that can be allocated per person has also become much smaller.Being able to live in an apartment of [-] square meters is enough to prove that Zhuang Hong is indeed not short of money.

"It's a pity that even if the air purifier is turned on, it still can't reach the level of the boss." She shook her head helplessly and took out the elf ball, "Come out, little one."

"Snapped!!"

The Poké Ball opened, and Squirtle's figure appeared from the light.

"Jenny Jennie?"

As soon as it came out, it looked around curiously at its new living environment.

Zhuang Hong knelt down and said apologetically: "Sorry little guy, my place may not be as good as the boss's place, and the place is not as big as there."

"Jenny~"

Squirtle shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.

Looking at such a pair of sincere and refreshing eyes, Zhuang Hong felt that his cold heart was really beginning to warm up.

"The boss said you like water. I filled the bathtub with water. You can go in and play. But I need to read this elf manual and learn more about you little elves."

So, while Squirtle was playing, she hurriedly looked through the elf manual. If she didn't learn more about it, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take care of him and hurt Squirtle.

The content of the Pokémon Manual is not much, but it describes some of the ecology of Pokémon in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.

Pokémon has eighteen attributes, and there are various restraint or immunity relationships between attributes.

Pokémon are not as fragile as she thought. They are even born with genes that grow through battles. When most Pokémon grow, in addition to learning more powerful skills, they will also be sublimated with life. This is called evolution.

In addition, the bond between humans and Pokémon is also one of the important aids for Pokémon to grow. It is not an exaggeration to say it is indispensable.

As a result, various magical professions were born, such as elf trainers, elf breeders, etc.

Among them, the elf trainer is the foundation of all elf professions. Having an elf is equivalent to becoming an elf trainer.

The existence of these professions not only greatly enhances the bond between humans and elves, but also accelerates the development of an alternative civilization...

Naturally, the manual doesn't explain things in detail, but it is enough for a novice like Zhuang Hong to roughly know how to coexist with elves.

"Jenny Jenny~"

Just when she was halfway through watching it, a wet Squirtle trotted out of the bathroom, and Zhuang Hong quickly brought a bath towel to wipe it clean.

For a moment, she seemed to think about her feelings when she was taking care of her son. The little thing also ran around without wiping it clean after taking a bath.

"Jenny?"

"It's okay, by the way, little guy, are you hungry? There are energy cubes here."

Energy cubes are the food of elves. They are made from a variety of magical tree fruits and contain high nutrients with various properties and energy. They can promote the growth of elves faster. Some energy cubes can also be eaten by humans.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the box, Squirtle couldn't move his eyes away, and his saliva flowed all over the floor. Then he started to eat each one crazily, so delicious that his eyes narrowed.

Zhuang Hong also used the Pokédex by the way. Whether it was the boss or the manual, it was specifically stated that the Pokédex is a very important tool that can provide the most intuitive understanding of each individual Pokémon.

With a startup sound, a picture of Squirtle appeared on the illustrated screen, and a text explanation with voice was also displayed.

【Jenny Turtle】

【Little Turtle Pokémon】

[Attribute: Water]

【Gender: Male】

[Character: naughty]

[Feature: Torrent]

[Current moves: impact, tail wagging, water gun, shell shrinking, high-speed placement, bite, water wave]

[Squirtle’s shell, which takes a while to harden after birth, is quite soft and elastic, as if it can be broken by a blow.Even if you press it with your fingers, it will return to its original shape immediately after you release it.When it encounters danger, it will retract its limbs into its shell to protect itself.When it retracts its long neck into its shell, it will fire a powerful water gun and spray powerful foam from its mouth.The role of the carapace is not only to protect itself, but its rounded shape and grooves on its surface reduce the resistance of the water, allowing it to swim quickly.It hunts by spraying water from the surface of the water. It will catch the opponent's weakness and use the water spray to counterattack. 】

"1234...seven moves, these are used for elf battles? Squirtle, do you also like battles?"

"Jenny Jenny! Chew, gnaw, gnaw~"

"Oh, can you evolve too?"

"Jenny Jenny! Chew, gnaw, gnaw~"

It was also when she formally conquered Squirtle with the Poké Ball that Zhuang Hong also vaguely felt a certain connection with it.

Just like now, although she couldn't understand Squirtle's words, she could intuitively understand what it wanted to express.

This should be the bond between trainers and elves mentioned in the manual.

"Ah, you naughty little kid, why did you finish eating all at once?"

While she was looking at the illustrated book for a while, Squirtle had already eaten two boxes and had already opened the third box.

You know, these three boxes are the standard amount for ten days. After eating it at once, Zhuang Hong is not worried about the waste, but worried about whether it will fill his stomach.

"Jenny...Jenny?"

Squirtle froze, not knowing whether to put down the energy cube in his hand.

This kind of behavior also looks very much like a child who made a mistake, and is somewhat at a loss.

Zhuang Hong specifically looked at the manual again, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. It turns out that eating more energy cubes will not have any bad effects, but the nutrients eaten will not be absorbed by the body. Unless after evolution, the body will eat more energy cubes every day. The amount that can be absorbed will increase.

"Jenny?"

It's asking if it can continue eating.

Zhuang Hong nodded angrily: "You, forget it this time, don't be so greedy in the future."

After receiving permission, Squirtle had no worries and started eating again. It looked like he was doing the same thing, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it from him.

"Haha, you are exaggerating, little guy. Eat it, eat it. As long as you like it, it doesn't matter if you finish it all. Mom will buy it again tomorrow."

"Jenny!?"

Squirtle was shocked, mom?

Zhuang Hong also realized that he had made a mistake, mainly because the words he just said were too smooth and he accidentally called himself mother.

But before she could change her words, Squirtle took the initiative to hug her, raising his face and smiling coquettishly.

"Jenny Jennie~~"

She could feel that Squirtle meant that she could call him whatever she wanted.

"Really? Then I will be my mother."

"Jenny Jenny~"

Squirtle nodded, and each elf hugged each other tightly.

For a moment, Zhuang Hong thought about naming it after her son. The boss also said that elves can be named, but she immediately gave up the idea.

She is very grateful that the appearance of Squirtle has once again illuminated her life. It should not be a substitute for her son. Both it and her son are unique existences.

Missing her son and husband made her suffer for half a year. She didn't want to forget it, but she decided to keep these feelings deep in her heart from now on and welcome a new life.

I believe this is what they want to see of themselves.

[Master, I have your phone number]

Just then, a call came in.

"Go on."

Then the empty screen projection on the ceiling opened, projecting a light screen in front of her, and a beautiful woman with curly hair appeared on the light screen.

"It's Xiao Ling, what's wrong?"

"Sister Hong, do you need me to pick you up from the party tomorrow night?"

Zhuang Hong slapped his head and then remembered that there would be a bereavement party tomorrow, which was a gathering where a group of lonely people who had lost their loved ones came together to comfort each other.

People with similar experiences come together because they no longer have any relatives, so they can only hug each other for warmth to soothe their sadness and loneliness.

Although Zhuang Hong had just made up his mind to let go and move forward, after all, he had agreed to a party before, and it would not be good if he didn't go.

"It's okay, I will go there by myself when the time comes."

"Okay Sister Hong, by the way, Sister Hong, I was very concerned about it just now. Is that a pillow you are holding in your hand?"
