I'm the Owner of the Pokémon Day Care In the World of Pokémon-Chapter 1381: Fairy Aura
Chapter 1381 - Fairy Aura
After settling Yveltal, Xerneas felt that the barren Allearth Forest posed a significant problem.
Although it had purified Allearth Forest, it couldn't restore it to its former state.
Previously, Allearth Forest was a lifeless wasteland, inaccessible to both humans and Pokémon, making the folded space within it impossible to discover.
But now that this life-restricted zone had been liberated, the bare land stood out awkwardly compared to its surroundings. It was likely that curious beings would soon venture in, increasing the risk of the folded space being exposed.
If Yveltal were discovered, especially by those people with ill intentions, it would be no trivial matter!
After hearing Xerneas's concerns, Yuga and Florges exchanged a glance and nodded to each other. It seemed that their tree-growing skills were about to come into play again!
Yuga then said to Xerneas, "Xerneas, if we turn this land back into a forest and blend it seamlessly with the surrounding environment, wouldn't it draw less attention?"
Xerneas nodded. "Yes, that's right."
Yuga smiled and said, "Then leave this matter to me."
"Leave it to you?" Xerneas asked in confusion.
"Mm-hmm, come with me!" With that, Yuga and Florges rode on Absol, leaving the deep pool area, and Xerneas had no choice but to follow.
Yuga and Florges rode Absol to the spot where the Helioptile and Heliolisk had just eaten berries. The ground there was littered with leftover berry seeds.
Upon arrival, Florges used her green vines to collect all the seeds from the ground. Yuga then turned to Xerneas and said, "Now, let's test this outside."
Xerneas had no idea what Yuga was planning, but followed him out of the folded space.
Once outside, Florges tossed a seed onto the ground. Yuga said to Xerneas, "Watch closely!"
Xerneas then saw the seed quickly take root and sprout under Florges's nourishment, soon growing into a towering tree.
Florges was no longer the same as before. After her transformation into a Legendary Pokémon, accelerating plant growth had become almost instinctual for her, requiring no effort at all.
Xerneas exclaimed in delight, "I didn't expect you to have such an ability!" It was almost no different from the power of the forest deity Celebi.
Yuga continued, "Although Florges can rapidly grow plants, she needs seeds to do so. Restoring an entire forest would require a vast number of seeds, and the ones I have on hand are far from enough."
Of course, even without seeds, Florges could still create towering trees, but those would merely be manifestations of Grass-type energy and would revert back to natural energy once separated from her.
"That is indeed a problem..." Xerneas muttered thoughtfully. After a long pause, it suddenly said, "Leave this matter to me!"
With that, it leaped into the air and disappeared from Yuga's sight in the blink of an eye, leaving him standing there alone.
"Florges, let's go ahead and plant the seeds we have," Yuga said helplessly.
"Florges~"
Florges responded, and the two of them earnestly began planting trees.
Yuga and Florges waited until mid-afternoon. They had finished planting all the trees long ago when Xerneas finally returned.
However, it didn't come back alone. A large flock of bird Pokémon followed closely behind—Fletchling, Fletchinder, Talonflame, Swablu, Altaria, Pidgey, Pidgeotto, Hoothoot, Noctowl, Fearow, Spearow... The sky was densely packed, almost completely obscured by them.
"I brought you some helpers," Xerneas said cheerfully.
It was then that Yuga noticed every bird Pokémon had a seed in its beak—seeds of all kinds, some Yuga recognized, while others he had never seen before.
"Great! With their help, things will be much easier for us," Yuga said happily.
After that, Yuga and Florges devoted themselves once again to the grand task of planting trees. The bird Pokémon scattered the seeds one by one across the land, while Florges was responsible for nurturing the seeds to grow.
With the combined efforts of Yuga and Florges, the barren Allearth Forest slowly began to dress itself in greenery.
The Allearth Forest covered an extensive area, and planting trees across the entire region was not something that could be accomplished in just a day or two.
Fortunately, with the help of the bird Pokémon, a lot of work was saved for Yuga and Florges. The bird Pokémon would venture outside the Allearth Forest daily to search for seeds and bring them back. When they couldn't find any seeds, Yuga would tell them that young saplings could be brought back as well.
Yuga and Florges were busy with this work for more than half a month, nearly exhausting themselves to the brink.
This was far more laborious than the previous effort in the Guli Mountains. Although the forest there had been destroyed, many plants had survived, and the roots of the damaged trees were still intact. Restoring that area was much easier compared to Allearth Forest, where not even grass roots remained.
During this half-month, Xerneas often disappeared without a trace, leaving all the work to Yuga and Florges. If it hadn't shown up every few days, Yuga would have suspected that Xerneas had run away.
While Yuga was busy planting trees in Allearth Forest, Ash and his friends encountered Diancie in a small human town during their search for Xerneas.
Diancie was the princess of the Diamond Domain, a mysterious realm hidden deep underground. freёnovelkiss.com
For thousands of years, the Diamond Domain had relied on the power of the "Sacred Diamond" to sustain itself. However, as the Sacred Diamond's power gradually weakened, the task of creating a new Sacred Diamond fell upon Princess Diancie.
Only mythical Pokémon like Diancie could create a Sacred Diamond.
However, this princess of the Diamond Domain had only recently been born and didn't yet possess the ability to create a Sacred Diamond. With no other choice, the ministers of the Diamond Domain sent her out to seek help from the legendary Fairy-type Pokémon—Xerneas.
As long as Diancie could learn how to harness "Fairy Aura" from Xerneas, she would undoubtedly be able to create a Sacred Diamond.
On this day, Yuga and Florges finally finished planting trees in the last barren part of Allearth Forest. They both let out long sighs of relief.
"It's finally over!" Yuga said happily.
"Florges~"
Florges responded with a relaxed expression.
"Thanks for all your hard work these past days!" Yuga didn't forget to acknowledge the birds who had tirelessly collected seeds. He waved toward the sky in gratitude.
The bird Pokémon chirped a few times in response to Yuga and Florges, then disappeared into the horizon. With the task assigned by Xerneas complete, it was time for them to leave.
Most of the bird Pokémon had already left once the majority of the planting was done. These were the final group.
"Alright, let's go too." With that, Yuga and Florges rode Absol toward the entrance of the folded space.
When they arrived, Xerneas had surprisingly appeared as well—something rare since Yuga hadn't seen it for several days.
Not only that, but beside Xerneas was an unfamiliar Togekiss. What stood out the most was that this Togekiss radiated an aura even more powerful than Absol's.
...
[ Togekiss ]
Type: Fairy, Flying
Gender: Female
Ability: Super Luck
Potential: Indigo
Level: 99
Moves: Growl, Charm, Metronome, Yawn, Sweet Kiss, Wish, Ancient Power, Magical Leaf, Fairy Wind, Extreme Speed, Aura Sphere, Air Slash, Sky Attack, Psyshock, Light Screen, Roost, Shadow Ball, Steel Wing, Dazzling Gleam, Telekinesis, Water Pulse, Signal Beam, Magic Coat, Hyper Voice, Heal Bell.
...
After using the Insight skill to view Togekiss's data, Yuga was startled.
This was actually a Pokémon just one step away from level 100, quite similar to the situation with Ninetales back then. However, Yuga had no idea where Xerneas had found it.
Seeing Yuga approaching, Xerneas stepped forward and said, "You're back. Thank you for all your hard work these past days."
Xerneas's gratitude toward Yuga was genuine. Whether it was sealing Yveltal or hiding Yveltal's giant cocoon, Yuga had been incredibly dedicated.
If it weren't for Yuga's help, Xerneas would have had to exert a great deal of effort.
Jumping off Absol's back with Florges, Yuga replied, "Sealing Yveltal is beneficial for us humans as well. This bit of hard work is only natural."
Hearing this, Xerneas was even more satisfied with Yuga. "Let's not talk about that. Let me introduce you—this is Togekiss. It will stay here from now on to help me guard the Folded Space."
It was only then that Yuga understood why Xerneas had been coming and going so frequently these days—it had been searching for a guardian for the Folded Forest.
Having a powerful Pokémon here certainly brought a sense of security.
But why would such a powerful Pokémon willingly stay here as a guardian?
Yuga quickly found out the reason—Xerneas had promised to help Togekiss advance to level 100.
With Xerneas's assistance, Togekiss successfully advanced to level 100, and its potential changed from blue to purple.
The strength of a level 100 Pokémon was entirely different from before. Feeling the immense power within its body, Togekiss had no regrets about agreeing to guard the Folded Space for Xerneas.
Having lost part of its life force, Xerneas appeared somewhat weakened. It spoke feebly to Yuga and Florges, "I'll have to trouble you both to create a dwelling for Togekiss."
As it spoke, Xerneas handed a seed to Yuga.
"No problem," Yuga replied as he took the seed.
Yuga couldn't identify what type of plant the seed belonged to. He found a suitable spot, planted it in the soil, and under Florges's nurturing, it quickly sprouted. In no time, it grew into a towering tree, taller than any other trees in the surrounding area.
After all, this was a level 100 Pokémon—its residence had to be suitably impressive. Florges even thoughtfully wove a delicate and comfortable nest within the tree's canopy using branches and leaves for Togekiss.
Once everything was done, Xerneas said to Yuga and Florges, "Everything is more or less settled now. It's time for me to leave."
Upon hearing this, Yuga responded, "It's time for us to leave as well."
After a moment of contemplation, Xerneas said to Florges, "Come here."
Florges stepped forward curiously. Xerneas gently pressed its forehead against hers. As a pink light flashed, Florges seemed to gain something new in her mind.
Fairy Aura!
Xerneas had bestowed upon Florges a special ability called "Fairy Aura."
Fairy Aura was an extraordinary power that could greatly amplify the abilities of Fairy-type Pokémon. To learn it, a Fairy-type Pokémon had to meet a special condition—possessing Legendary Aura.
After becoming a Legendary Pokémon, Florges naturally no longer lacked Legendary Aura, so learning this ability was not difficult for her.
Florges had transformed into a Legendary Pokémon through the Eternal Flower, a special variant of the Fairy Flower (the flowers held by Flabébé and Floette). Logically, she should possess strong talent in Fairy-type abilities.
However, she had been one-sided in her development for a long time. Due to the influence of the Green Orb, the abilities she excelled at were Grass-type moves, which were not of her original type. If she could master Fairy Aura, it would compensate for her weaknesses in her own type.
After teaching Florges this ability, Xerneas appeared even more exhausted.
It had only recently awakened, and now, having lost part of its essence, it wouldn't recover without a period of rest. Fortunately, with Yveltal now sealed, there was nothing more for it to worry about.
After leaving this place, it planned to wander around the Kalos region.
"Florges~"
Florges sincerely bowed to Xerneas, expressing her gratitude.
"No need to thank me. This is what you deserve."
After speaking, Xerneas gave a few more instructions to Togekiss and then disappeared into the Allearth Forest.
Once Xerneas had left, Yuga bid farewell to Togekiss as well. He then returned Florges to her Poké Ball, mounted Absol, and also departed from the Allearth Forest.
His ghost ship was still docked by the waterfall outside the Allearth Forest. Upon seeing Yuga return safely, Dusknoir let out a sigh of relief.
If Yuga hadn't sent back Vivillon midway to report his safety, Dusknoir would have probably gone to look for him.
Dusknoir had already sensed the aftermath of the battle between Xerneas and Yveltal earlier, and it had been extremely worried at the time.
After boarding the ghost ship, Yuga said with a smile, "Dusknoir, let's leave this place!"
"Dusknoir!"
Dusknoir nodded, then let out a loud cry. The Ghost-type Pokémon on the ship immediately took their positions, and the ghost ship slowly began to float.
Standing at the stern, Yuga watched as the Allearth Forest grew farther and farther away, thinking to himself: It won't be long before this place becomes indistinguishable from anywhere else.
With wild Pokémon settling in, the marks left on the Allearth Forest by the "Great Destruction" would eventually fade with the passage of time.
