Chapter 357: Love Struck

Chapter 357: Love Struck The two of them sat together and talked for a long time. Yuga even told Flannery about Beidou resignation from Ever Grande City Day Care Center and he work at the YoYo Day Care now, which surprised her greatly.

Time passed unnoticed, and it was already noon. With the warm hospitality of Flannery's parents, Yuga was treated exceptionally well.

Not long after lunch, Yuga took his leave from the Lavaridge Gym and headed to the Day Care Center to meet Director Mond.

Director Mond was quite surprised about Yuga being so late this time, but he didn't inquire further. Instead, he enthusiastically helped Yuga choose some Pokémon Eggs.

This time, there were a total of 24 Eggs, all of them with green Potentials; there were no higher Potentials available.

After making his selection, Yuga bid farewell to Director Mond and returned to Verdanturf Town on the back of the Great Flygon. Because he took a shortcut, he managed to make it back home that very day. However, when he reached his doorstep, it was already dark.

Since Suzuki Koen had finished work and the house was pitch black after Yuga opened the door, it felt a bit eerie. Only the light in Windy's room was still on.

Yuga went upstairs, and as he passed Windy's room, he noticed him still sitting in front of his computer. Yuga knocked on the door, thinking of reminding him to go to bed early.

However, to his surprise, Windy was startled by the knocking and nearly hid under the table.

Seeing Windy's reaction, Yuga pushed the door open and said with amusement, "Do I really scare you that much?"

Seeing that it was Yuga, Windy breathed a sigh of relief and quickly got up from the floor. He stammered, "B-boss, you're back?"

Yuga chuckled at his words and said, "What's the matter? Can't I return to my own home?"

Windy realized he had misspoken and hurriedly explained, "I meant... It's just that it's quite late."

Yuga shook his head, feeling a bit helpless. "You really need to work on your communication skills. It would be good for you to chat more with the others downstairs, especially with Siter Koen and the others."

Windy remained silent, keeping his head down as he listened.

Seeing Windy's attitude of "I hear you, but I won't change," Yuga sighed and said, "Get some rest; it's getting late."

After saying this, Yuga went back to his room.

The next morning, Yuga headed to the Ecopark. It had been over a week since the Pokémon obtained from the Motohara had been transfered to the YoYo Day Care, and he hadn't checked on their condition yet.

However, before he even entered, he noticed Linoone approaching him, followed by a wagging tail, a Mightyena.

What kind of combination was this? Yuga couldn't quite understand.

"What's going on with you two?" Yuga asked Linoone in confusion.

Linoone seemed helpless as he stood upright and spread his front paws, making a gesture that seemed to say, "I can't help it either."

Yuga then shifted his gaze to Mightyena, who was looking at Linoone with a shy expression, not giving Yuga a single glance.

Seeing this, Yuga didn't need any more explanations.

Mightyena had fallen for Linoone.

In fact, when Mightyena had just been transfered to the YoYo Day Care, it was very unwilling to stay here.

Jokingly, why should a dignified clan leader like itself, proud and imposing, stay in this place? Moreover, it had been tamed by that man who had beaten it so badly, showing no mercy at all!

But all these thoughts disappeared the moment it saw a heroic figure passing by it one day. It was none other than the handsome Linoone.

Looking at that streamlined body, in that moment, it felt its heart racing.

"What an amazing handsome male!" (ε) It had fallen head over heels for Linoone in that instant.

That's how Mightyena fell in love at first sight with Linoone.

Love truly strikes unexpectedly.

As for the Greninja, who was accompanying Linoone, it was ruthlessly ignored.

Without a second thought, Mightyena decided to follow Linoone.

On the day when Linoone and Greninja had arranged to train with Typhlosion and Ursaring, they were heading to the Desert Sub-Ecopark for their training session. They were completely unaware of the Mightyena following them.

Upon arriving at the Desert Sub-Ecopark, where Typhlosion and Ursaring were already waiting, the four Pokémon split into two teams. Greninja and its good friend Linoone formed one team, while Ursaring and Typhlosion formed the other.

Given that Greninja and Linoone had known each other for quite some time, trained together regularly, and lived together, their teamwork was stronger, and they easily defeated Ursaring and Typhlosion.

Seeing the powerful and majestic Linoone on the battlefield, Mightyena, who was watching from the sidelines, was utterly captivated.

Mwah! (*╯3╰) What a MANly male!

What else was there to do? For the sake of its idol, it decided to stay at the YoYo Day Care forever! Sёarᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

From that moment on, Mightyena abandoned the idea of leaving the YoYo Day Care and awakened its infatuation attribute.

Unable to contain its admiration any longer, Mightyena boldly went out to confess.

"Idol, I adore you!"

Linoone, upon hearing Mightyena for the first time, was utterly stunned by its "declaration of love."

(Д)ノ How straightforward for a female!

Since then, Mightyena followed Linoone around every day and even moved with it to the woods near Heart Lake.

Linoone didn't particularly dislike Mightyena.

It also wished to have a romantic partner and couldn't help but notice the affectionate vibes between Ninetales and Houndoom whenever they were around. It had lost count of how many times it had been fed with dog food.

Moreover, its old friend Swellow had recently announced that he was no longer single.

Yes, during Yuga's absence, Swellow had finally won over his dream girl—Honchkrow.

To say that Linoone wasn't envious would be a lie, but it also wanted someone to love!

Well, this Mightyena was pretty good—graceful, good-looking, and most importantly, bold.

Of course, the other Pokémon couldn't see where Mightyena's grace and beauty were coming from, but Linoone could.

However, even if they shared mutual feelings, they couldn't decide on a lifelong commitment without the boss's approval. So, they had to wait for the boss to return.

That was Linoone's plan.

So, what Yuga saw in front of him was the result of these events.

Yuga looked at Linoone, who seemed to be saying, "It's not like I wanted to be bothered by it," and what else was there to understand?

"Hehe... This is your business, so you two can figure it out yourselves."

What else could he do? He couldn't play matchmaker, could he? Yuga thought.

Upon hearing Yuga's words, Linoone's eyes revealed a hint of joy, but it continued to act aloof.

Well, it couldn't ruin its idol's image.

However, in the next moment, it lost its cool because the excited Mightyena gave it a kiss on the cheek and then gave Yuga a "I hope you're satisfied" look.

Linoone blushed at the kiss from Mightyena and quickly ran away.

Well, the love-struck Linoone also had a touch of tsundere in its nature.
