Chapter 780: Pearls After leaving the Mine Sub-Ecopark, Yuga took the opportunity to visit the Chansey.
The Chansey are now living together with the Miltank. During this time, the Miltank have been sharing their knowledge of the familiar ecosystem of the Ecopark and the Pokémon that live here with the Chansey, while the Chansey are teaching the Miltank more knowledge.
With both practical experience and theoretical knowledge, they complemented each other perfectly.
When Yuga arrived at the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark, Chansey was busy treating a wound on Purrloin's hand.
Purrloin had sustained the injury while patrolling, engaging in a skirmish with neighboring Pokémon. It was minor, and Chansey handled it easily.
In the presence of Chansey, even the mischievous Purrloin behaved obediently, putting aside its usual playful antics.
After the treatment, Chansey gently rubbed Purrloin's head, and Purrloin, feeling a bit uneasy, turned its head away, looking somewhat shy.
Purrloin's younger sister, Zorua, watched with concern as Chansey helped her sister with the wound. When she learned that her sister's injury wasn't severe, she looked at Chansey with gratitude.
Compared to the mischievous Purrloin, Zorua was livelier and more well-behaved.
However, since Purrloin and their father, Liepard, had taken on patrol duties, Purrloin had become more responsible and mature, which pleased Yuga.
It indicated that Purrloin truly considered itself part of the Day Care and was taking practical steps to protect it.
As Purrloin was about to say something to Chansey, it saw Yuga approaching and quickly whisked Zorua away, afraid of Yuga witnessing its embarrassment.
"Chansey! Chansey!"
Seeing Yuga approaching, Chansey happily waved to him.
Mei Mei was the leader among the six Chansey and the most powerful among them. Besides being slightly weaker than Yuga's Audino, her abilities as a Pokémon assistant were superior to Audino.
The Chansey selected for Yuga by the Joy family were not chosen randomly. Among the Pokémon assistants that graduated in their batch, Mei Mei was one of the top performers.
Yuga asked, "Mei Mei, how have you all been here these days?"
The other Chansey were out working with the Miltank, so only Mei Mei remained in the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark.
"Chansey! Chansey!"
We've been doing great here! I really love it!
Mei Mei had a round, chubby face that looked adorable, and Yuga couldn't resist the urge to reach out and pinch her cheeks. However, he refrained, fearing it might startle the Chansey.
In their current living conditions, all six Chansey were quite content. They weren't the type of Pokémon to thrive in solitude; they preferred a lively group environment.
Until they graduated from the Joy family's Pokémon Nurse School, they had always lived in a group. Their training companions included not only other Chansey but also Pokémon like Kirlia, Wigglytuff, and Clefable.
Originally, they were supposed to be assigned to Nurse Joy as her assistants. However, since they hadn't met their future partner in person yet, they were naturally anxious. The thought of being separated from their companions whom they would spend every day with made them even more uneasy.
But the actual situation turned out to be much better than they had anticipated.
Given to Yuga, they were placed together with six companions, which greatly alleviated their initial anxieties.
"That's good. If you need anything, just ask me." Yuga said with a smile.
In faxt, At Yuga's Ecopark, the assistant Pokémon had a substantial workload. Besides taking care of the daily needs of the Pokémon, they were responsible for treating injuries, as the Pokémon at the Ecopark underwent daily training and various combat exercises, often resulting in injuries. That's why Yuga felt he needed more Miltank.
Yuga's Miltank didn't have excellent potential, and the healing move they knew only Milk Drink. But the healing effect of Milk Drink is not as good as Heal Pulse.
Even the ones that could use Heal Bell were in the minority.
Now, with six Chansey that could use Heal Pulse joining them, the workload for the Miltank had significantly lightened.
Due to the substantial workload, Yuga was initially concerned about whether the Chansey would adapt to their new life. However, based on his current observations, the Chansey were doing quite well.
While Yuga was discussing their life in the Ecopark with Mei Mei, the leader of the Miltank herd returned with Yuan Yuan, Qiu Qiu, Tuan Tuan, Ai Ai, and Pang Pang.
Currently, the Chansey' internship work was mainly led by the Miltank leader, and the interaction between the Chansey and Miltank had been harmonious.
After chatting with the Chansey for a while, Yuga headed to the Shallow Sea Sub-Ecopark with the purpose of checking on the Clamperl living there.
The Clamperl had made their habitat on a coral reef north of the central island of Lake 1. They lived a relaxed life, spending their days either soaking in the sea or basking in the sun on the coral reef.
This group of Clamperl had been at the Ecopark for quite some time and had produced many pearls intermittently.
At first, they were somewhat unstable in their pearl production, possibly due to adjusting to the new environment and mood swings.
As time passed, Yuga had taken good care of them, and their deep blue shells shone brilliantly. The pale blue flesh inside the shells was clear and translucent, while their pink bodies were plump and gleaming.
Recently, the Clamperl's pearl production had become stable.
Yuga had already reached an agreement with a pharmaceutical company. The pearls produced by his Clamperl would be sold to them as materials for making medicines.
The pearls produced by Clamperl were precious pharmaceutical materials. Depending on the prescription, the medicines made from these pearls were suitable for Water-type Pokémon and Psychic-type Pokémon, greatly assisting in their growth.
Yuga had also ordered a batch of such medicines from this pharmaceutical company, which he mixed into the Pokéblocks of Psychic-type and Water-type Pokémon in the Ecopark for them to consume.
This pharmaceutical company was introduced to Yuga by Joyka. It was a reputable and large company and one of Joy's family's partners in the pharmaceutical business.
Yuga's pearls were of high quality, and with the Joy family's guarantee, it was easy to reach a supply agreement with the pharmaceutical company.
The fact that Clamperl was chosen as the signature Pokémon of Truly Adorable Day Care was not without reason—it was precisely due to the high quality pearls they produced.
In reality, many Day Cares had collaborations with various companies, including pharmaceutical companies, jewelry companies, and item companies.
The production of Pokémon varied greatly, with valuable materials like Dustox's powder, Vileplume's saliva, Lilligant's fragrance, and Arbok's venom, among others.
Day Cares housed a large number of Pokémon, leading to substantial material production. Since the Day Cares couldn't utilize these materials themselves, they formed supply agreements with other companies, creating a mutually beneficial situation.
Currently, the Clamperl, along with the Huntail and Gorebyss, had bred several more Clamperl. Yuga's Clamperl population had grown to a considerable size.
Yuga didn't intend to sell Clamperl; he wanted to keep them solely for pearl production. The value of the pearls produced by Clamperl was high, and there was no need to consider selling Clamperl for profit.
When Yuga arrived at the Clamperl's habitat, they were all on the coral reef, with their shells wide open, basking in the sun with their eyes closed. Several Huntail and Gorebyss were swimming in the water nearby.
These Huntail and Gorebyss were the ones Yuga had when he took over the Clamperl habitat initially. He hadn't acquired any new Huntail or Gorebyss since then.
To be precise, Yuga didn't plan to let his Clamperl evolve into Huntail or Gorebyss because once Clamperl evolved, they would lose their ability to produce pearls, which was highly unprofitable.
Clamperl could still reproduce without evolving into Huntail or Gorebyss, while evolving would result in losing the pearl production ability, which Yuga wouldn't consider doing.
He also didn't intend to sell his Clamperl.
In addition, evolving Clamperl into Huntail and Gorebyss requires Deep Sea Tooth and Deep Sea Scale, which can be quite expensive and doesn't seem cost-effective.
Yuga's arrival caught the attention of Huntail and Gorebyss in the water, causing them to poke their heads out and softly call out to Yuga.
The Clamperl basking in the sun were awakened by the cries of Huntail and Gorebyss, and they opened their eyes simultaneously.
Also among those who opened their eyes were the two Cloyster mixed in with the Clamperl.
These two Cloyster must have been quite lonely, considering Clamperl as their own kin, even though they are both shellfish-like Pokémon, their species is entirely different.
The Egg Group of Cloyster is "Water 3," and the Egg Group of Clamperl is "Water 1." They don't even have a chance to breed together.
However, the two Cloyster are willing to be with the Clamperl, and the Clamperl doesn't reject the Cloyster, so Yuga just goes along with them.
In addition to Cloyster, Slowbro and Slowking, which live in the center of the island lake, sometimes come to the coral reef here along the river and blend in with the groups of Clamperl, standing on the coral reef, facing the sea, and sunbathing with their eyes closed.
Yuga suspected the reason for their behavior was that being with Clamperl, the pearls inside Clamperl's bodies could aid them in meditation.
However, the true reason was never revealed to him, and he didn't inquire. Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Every time he saw Slowking, Yuga felt like he was looking at a magic stick and thought it was eccentric. On the other hand, when he saw Slowbro, he considered it rather dim-witted and impossible to communicate with.
Perhaps both of them considered a mortal humans like Yuga unworthy of communication.
Anyway, these two were quite headache-inducing.
However, when Yuga arrived today, he didn't see either of them.
