Chapter 260: BBQ made from Dragon Slayer Shell and Slowpoke Tail, Blue Blade Ghost Wind~
“It can also fish!”
Papa's eyes lit up, and he stopped fishing for his own fish and squatted next to Slowpoke, wanting to see what it could catch.
Slowpoke also maintained the indifferent character of Buddhism and salted fish. It did not resist Papper's attention at all, or rather, it did not react at all.
Luo Mu remembered a title of the Three Idiots of Pokémon that he had heard before. The so-called Three Idiots were Misty's Psyduck, the Magikarp that was flooding the river, and the Slowpoke in front of him.
In an episode of the original animation, Misty's Psyduck and Slowpoke had a world-shaking battle between two gods, illustrating the comic effect of creatures under the combined influence of super-long reaction arcs and forgetfulness.
As the two watched, Slowpoke's tail swayed rhythmically in the lake, as if by doing so, the sweetness oozing from the tip of its tail would spread farther, attracting fish or Pokémon to "take the bait."
Slowpoke was in a very relaxed state, as if it wasn't worried at all about going hungry if it didn't catch any fish today. It yawned from time to time, but there was no sign of rain in the sky.
Luo Mu and Papa were also bored, so they just squatted next to Slowpoke and watched its fishing movements.
I watched it for an hour.
During this period, Slowpoke caught two fish, both of which were big and fat. However, with Slowpoke's reaction time, it was already the third time it fished with its tail before it realized that it seemed to have caught a fish.
Slowpoke's brain is like a single-threaded computer that can only handle one thing. Because it is fishing and controlling its tail to stir the water, it cannot concentrate on eating. It can only look at the fish it has caught with dull eyes and occasionally make a few meaningless "Alu~" sounds.
Luo Mu and Papa thought that this guy must be hungry.
"Come on, open your mouth~"
In the end, the good boy Papper couldn't stand Slowpoke's "pitiful" look anymore. After sighing, he grabbed a fish that had already died and handed it to Slowpoke.
Luo Mu originally thought that the single-threaded Slowpoke would not open its mouth, but it reacted for five or six seconds and then slowly opened its mouth.
"ah"
Before Slowpoke could finish its yawn, Piper quickly threw the fish into its open mouth.
Luo Mu clearly saw a hint of doubt rising in Slowpoke's dull eyes, but it seemed that the doubt was overshadowed by the taste in his mouth before it could take shape.
Slowpoke swallowed the whole fish in one gulp.
Papa's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "It ate it. It understood what I said!"
Luo Mu looked helpless, not knowing whether he should tell the child that Slowpoke just wanted to yawn.
I don’t know if Papa is really lucky or if Slowpoke can really understand Papa’s instructions. When he fed the second fish, Slowpoke just happened to open its mouth and swallowed the second fish whole.
At this time, Papper was already mumbling to himself that he seemed to have a connection with Slowpoke and wondered if he should just tame it.
No matter how slow Slowpoke's reaction was, it still had basic senses and survival awareness. The two fish had already filled its stomach. The signal from its abdomen was received by its brain. After a while, Slowpoke's short limbs lying on the ground moved. It was about to leave.
At this time, ripples appeared on the surface of the water where Slowpoke was fishing. The Roentgen cat resting under the shade of a tree suddenly raised its head, cast its golden cat pupils towards the water, and slowly stood up.
The Roentgen cat sensed something rising rapidly.
"Yeah~"
At the same time, Slowpoke, sensing something, pulled its tail out of the water at a speed that was not in line with its characteristics.
The next moment, a black shadow came closer and closer to the water surface. Accompanied by splashing water, a purple shell about 30 cm in size jumped out of the water, with its big tongue fluttering in the wind. The pair of eyes on the black soft body in the shell stared directly at the tail of Slowpoke, as if it was regarded as a target.
"Shellbender?!"
Luo Mu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this Pokémon would suddenly jump out from under the lake.
As for Pepper, he was frightened by Shellder's sudden jump and sat down on the grass.
Fortunately, the grass was soft and did not break his tail vertebrae.
The Shellder that jumped high from the water had a very clear target. It locked onto the part of Slowpoke's tail that was pulled back, aimed its open shell in the direction, and began to fall!
It, Shellder, will welcome its new life today and complete its sacred evolution!
In order to prevent Slowpoke from escaping, Shellder shot out several icicles from its shell to freeze the ground, blocking Slowpoke's direction of advance.
Luo Mu's eyes widened. This is...
The clumsy Slowpoke couldn't avoid Shellder's long-planned action at all, and could only stare with big eyes and watch Shellder getting closer and closer to its tail.
At this time, the Mastiff Godfather, who was sleeping soundly nearby, was awakened by the noise. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the falling Shellder was getting closer and closer to Slowpoke and Piper beside it.
"Wang Wang!"
Thinking that Shellder was going to attack Papa, the Mastiff Godfather became angry. After a threatening roar, the energy stored in his throat sac began to become restless.
The evil energy burst out in a turbulent wave, directly hitting Shellder in mid-air, who was unable to dodge or hide in his shell in a defensive posture, and knocked him down onto the lake.
The Godfather Mastiff is much stronger than Shellder. This wave of evil actually directly knocked Shellder off his ability to fight.
At this time, Slowpoke finally reacted. Its long pink tail broke off in an instant. A trace of panic appeared on its dull face. It moved its short legs and quickly escaped into the bushes where it had just appeared, completely disappearing.
All this happened in less than half a minute, and even the Roentgen cat, who was the first to notice Shellder's movements, did not expect things to develop like this.
Papa stared at the direction where Slowpoke left, a little dazed.
Is this what they call fate? He clearly felt that he and Slowpoke were a good match.
Luo Mu walked to Papa, first lifted him up and made him stand up, then bent down and picked up the long, fleshy tail on the ground.
A faint sweet fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose, but Luo Mu fell into deep thought.
Would Slowpoke also cut off its tail to survive?
It's not a gecko.
Luo Mu picked up the fishing rod and brought the unconscious Shellder that was floating on the lake to the shore. If he let it float on the lake, it would most likely be taken away by some bird Pokémon.
Holding the Shellder, Luo Mu walked over to Papa, who was praising the Mastiff Godfather for his meritorious service in protecting his master, and poked him: "Papa!"
By this time, Piper had sorted out her lost mood, raised her head and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
Luo Mu pointed at the Shellder in his hand and said, "It was defeated by your Mastiff Godfather. How about it? Are you interested in taming it?" "It?"
Papa looked at Shellderk, who kept his tongue sticking out of the shell even in a coma. It's not that he disliked Shellderk that much, but this guy was killed instantly by the Godfather's evil wave, so he didn't seem very reliable.
After all, he, Papper, is a powerful trainer who will enter Area Zero to be a bodyguard for his parents!
It is better to be a little more cautious when capturing Pokémon.
Having known each other for such a long time, Luo Mu has now almost figured out Papa's personality. This kid's emotions are basically all on the surface, and they are very easy to guess. As soon as Papa raises his butt, Luo Mu knows that he is going to... cough cough cough.
The Papper in front of him obviously felt that Shellder was killed in seconds by the Godfather and could not be trained, so he didn't want to tame it.
After flicking Piper's head gently and motioning for Piper to sit down, Luo Mu sat down on the spot, put Shellder between the two of them, and stroked the fur of the Roentgen cat that moved to his side, saying, "I can see that you didn't listen carefully during the theory class. Listen carefully, now let me tell you about the characteristics of Shellder."
"First of all, what type of Pokémon is Shellder?"
Piper was silent for a moment. Shellder is an aquatic Pokémon, so it should have a water attribute. It just used an ice-type move to block the road, so...
"Water and ice attributes!"
Piper puffed out her chest and answered the question with full energy.
Luo Mu: ".Wrong, Shellder is a water-attribute Pokémon, and its evolution, Shellder, is a water- and ice-attribute Pokémon."
Papa: !!!!
After glaring at Papa, Luo Mu said, "Based on my observation, this Shellder has a high probability of having the "continuous attack" trait. Do you know what a Shellder with this trait is called?"
"Dragon Slayer! Ice-type moves counter Dragon-type Pokémon, and in the Padia Pit, there are many Dragon-type Pokémon, including powerful Dragon-type Pokémon like Triceratops and Garchomp."
"This is a rather extreme breeding method. I'm just saying it, just listen. The Thorny Shell is an extremely good Pokémon in terms of physical resistance because of its hard double-layer shell, but its special defense is a bit weak, which is why the Mastiff Godfather can kill it in seconds."
"With the continuous attack feature, the Ice Cone, Ice Pillar, and Rock Blast can cover the enemy with firepower like a machine gun. The Thorny Shell can also learn a move called "Shell Break" to greatly increase its speed and attack power. Multiplying the two, the Thorny Shell will become the strongest spear."
"Of course, there are also methods of cultivating the thorny shellfish that are more defensive, but just like the method I just mentioned, it is only a theory after all. How far you can cultivate it depends on yourself."
Under Papa's gradually brightening gaze, Luo Mu completed a brief extracurricular teaching.
After much consideration, Papper decided to capture Shellder and promised Luo Mu that he would treat it well.
Before he knew it, Papa's team lineup overlapped with the team lineup in the game.
With two buckets of fish and a tail, the two men and two Pokémon set out on the road back to the farm.
Night is the long-lost time for delicious food.
A large number of farm Pokémon gathered on the open ground, and the hottest place was around the Blade Demon who was having an open-air barbecue.
The two buckets of fish that Papa caught today have been processed. The charcoal fire is burning vigorously under the grill, and the fish is golden and crispy. The fish exudes a rich and fresh aroma and is sizzling on the grill, making the greedy Pokémon shed tears.
But the most eye-catching thing is the tail of the Slowpoke that was cut and skewered next to the grilled fish. As the meat matures, it gradually exudes a rich and sweet fragrance.
The tail of Slowpoke is like the claws of the Crab. It can fall off naturally and grow back quickly, and can also be used as food.
Especially this kind of naturally broken tail is a very precious food ingredient. In the Alola region, there is also a home-cooked dish made from Slowpoke's tail. According to the butler Zhihuixing from the Alola region, it seems that the dish is made by drying it and then cooking it in salt water. It is very popular there.
It's a pity that Slowpoke only has one tail, so he can only ask Chimp to make it next time when he has the chance.
Luo Mu came out of the house, holding a few pieces of grass cake made of grass. His nostrils twitched. The fragrance was amazing!
This reminded him of the feeling of eating the crab meat in the claws of a hairy crab.
You can smell the ultimate umami and sweetness just by smelling it. It does not need any seasoning to be a super high school level delicacy.
When the Blue Blade Demon first asked for the Slowpoke's tail from him, Luo Mu, who had planned to boil or steam it, was a little worried that it might not taste good if he roasted it.
But from this moment on, all that was left in Luo Mu's mind was anticipation.
Coming to a group of herbivorous Pokémon, Luo Mu put down the grass cake, and behind him, Zhihuixing came over using telekinesis with grass juice, grass steak, grass pudding and other food.
When eating meat, of course you can't favor some over others. If you want all the Pokémon on the farm to coexist peacefully, treating them equally is the best option.
Seeing Luo Mu coming, Pokémon such as Budding Deer, Heavy Mud Horse, Mount Lamb and Miltank all made joyful cries, came up to him affectionately, and cuddled with Luo Mu for a long time before letting him go.
Then, Luo Mu walked over to Papa who was playing on the back of Fulgur. Hearing that Fulgur was a Pokémon that Luo Mu temporarily captured in Area Zero, Papa stayed close to Fulgur.
Luo Mu also specifically warned Papa not to think that this Thunder Drum is so kind. The other wild Pokémon and Paradox Pokémon in the Padia Pit are the same. Such thinking will definitely cause him to suffer great losses in the future.
Even Meng Lei Gu agreed with this point. Its kind and other guys were not as easy to talk to as itself.
At this time, Papa and Meng Lei Gu seemed to have had enough fun. Their stomachs were rumbling and they were staring at the delicious food on the Cang Yan Ren Gui grill with salivating eyes.
Especially the Meng Lei Gu. In ancient times, it ate raw meat and drank blood. How could it have seen such delicious food with a dazzling aroma? For a moment, the Meng Lei Gu's eyes were wide open.
Looking at Meng Lei Gu's current state, Luo Mu was even a little worried that after Dr. Olin and Dr. Futu developed the time machine, this guy would be used to eating cooked food, and it would take him a long time to adapt when he returned to ancient times.
After waiting for a while, Blademaster finally announced the start of the meal. The Pokémon took the portioned grilled fish and grilled Slowpoke tail from it in an orderly manner and began to eat with happy faces.
Looking at their happy faces because of the food he made, Cang Yan Ren Gui felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. The fluctuation of emotions made the dark fire burning in his eyes sway slightly. If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely not be able to tell that Cang Yan Ren Gui was happy.
Luo Mu on the side was sincerely happy that it had found its interests and direction in life. He took the golden and crispy grilled fish and the sweet and tender tail of the Slowpoke from the Cang Yan Ren Gui, and tasted the delicious food that the Cang Yan Ren Gui had made with his "heart" bite by bite.
