Chapter 921: Another Filler

Chapter 921: Another Filler The next day, when Yuga heard the news that Greninja had successfully broken through to the Elite level in the Ecopark, and he was a bit surprised.

When did this breakthrough happen?

With the increasing number of Pokémon in the Ecopark, he couldn't possibly keep track of each one all the time, so he often overlooked some, including those that had been in the Ecopark for a long time.

Fortunately, these Pokémon were not his main team members and they had their friends and family within the Ecopark. Otherwise, thre would be no difference between Yuga and Ash, who left their Pokémon at Professor Oak place without much concern,

Initially, Yuga thought that Pokémon like Audino or Great Flygon, which had entered the pseudo-Elite stage earlier, would be the first to break through. He didn't expect Greninja to be the one to achieve this milestone.

However, upon closer thought, this development, while unexpected, made sense. Audino had the additional responsibility of being the caretaker of the Day Care, keeping busy every day, and Great Flygon often had to patrol around the Day Care, so it wasn't idle either.

Although Yuga provided them with almost the same resources, the difference in training volume accumulated over time could create a significant gap between them.

Yuga had received the news from Dragonite's mother and hadn't seen Greninja after its breakthrough. So after leaving the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark, he went straight to the Shallow Seashore.

Such an important breakthrough for Greninja had to be celebrated properly.

However, to his disappointment, he didn't find Greninja at the Shallow Seashore. After asking around, he learned that Greninja had gone to the Volcano Sub-Ecopark to challenge Volcarona.

It seemed Greninja was truly a battle enthusiast.

It could be imagined that for a long time to come, Greninja would keep "harassing" Volcarona in the Volcano Sub-Ecopark.

Just as Yuga was preparing to leave the Shallow Seashore, a small and unassuming Feebas quietly popped its head out of the sea. If Yuga's eyes weren't sharp, he might not have noticed this inconspicuous Feebas.

Looking at the Feebas, who seemed hesitant to speak, Yuga gently asked, "Don't be afraid, just tell me if you have something to say."

Most Feebas had this kind of personality—timid, shy, and lacking self-confidence.

The Feebas in Yuga's Ecopark were relatively better off because they all knew that they would eventually evolve into the beautiful Milotic. In fact, Feebas as timid as this one were rather rare.

The Feebas that entered the Ecopark initially had all evolved into Milotic with the help of Beautie Pokéblocks.

In the wild, Feebas reproduce quite fast, but those that successfully evolve into Milotic are a rare few. After two years of careful nurturing, there were now a large number of Feebas living in Lake of the Center of No. 1 Island.

"Feebasbas, Feebas."

I... I'd like to ask you... ask you for a favor.

The shy Feebas stammered to Yuga. It had heard from its parents that if there was something it couldn't solve, it should find this human, who was their caretaker and very powerful.

"You want my help?"

Yuga was curious, wondering what kind of favor this inconspicuous Feebas could need from him.

This Feebas had parents who were two very average Milotic in terms of potential, and its own potential was even more worse than its parent, its just the most basic red potential.

Combined with its ordinary appearance among Feebas, it rarely ventured outside and had no friends. So, the fact that it had gathered the courage to speak to Yuga was already quite remarkable.

Yuga: "You can be sure that I'll help you with whatever you need."

Indeed, just as its parents had said, he was a good person!

Hearing Yuga's words, Feebas couldn't help but wag its tail, splashing a couple of white waves.

"Feebas."

Follow me.

After saying that, Feebas swam in the direction of the Center Island's Lake, following the small stream that connected the sea and the lake.

As they walked halfway, Yuga noticed that many other Feebas were swimming down the stream from upstream. They looked panicked, as if they were escaping for their lives and heading downstream.

Yuga wanted to ask Feebas what had happened, but it was too shy and couldn't explain the situation clearly.

Before long, two Milotic emerged from the water. When Feebas saw them, it swam happily towards them. It turned out that these two were its parents.

However, these two Milotic looked somewhat disheveled, with bruises on their necks and faces, which struck Yuga as quite strange.

After talking to the two Milotic, Yuga finally got a rough idea of what had happened.

It turned out that the Milotic leader and the Gyarados couple upstream had been quarreling and fighting fiercely. Their fighting had disturbed the peace of Lake Island's Heart Lake, causing many Feebas to swim out to seek refuge.

The Milotic couple had initially tried to intervene in the fight, but to their surprise, they not only failed to stop it but also each received a tail strike from the irritable Gyarados.

Gyarados was a pseudo-Elite level Pokémon, while the Milotic couple hadn't even reached level 40. They weren't seriously hurt, but it had been quite painful.

Fine, you two can do whatever you like; we won't serve you anymore! The leader is truly impressive!

The Milotic couple, realizing their child had followed other Feebas out of Heart Lake, flicked their tails and went off to find their child.

The other Milotic in the lake were no different from the Milotic couple; they were unwilling to serve the two ancestors. Most of them flicked their tails and left Heart Lake as well.

"After you two are done fighting, we'll come back!"

This wasn't the first time the Milotic leader and Gyarados had quarreled. While the Milotic leader had a gentle personality, deep down, it were quite proud to itself. As for Gyarados, the word "gentle" had no place in describing them; it were a true fierce Gyarados.

While the couple was genuinely affectionate most of the time and could suddenly become all lovey-dovey, when they fought, it was fierce. No one in Heart Lake could stand up to them.

So, the Milotic and Feebas living in Heart Lake were truly at a loss for words when it came to their two eccentric leaders.

Only the immature Feebas thought of seeking Yuga's help. According to the Milotic's thinking, they could do as they pleased. If Feebas wanted to deal with it, so be it.

The Milotic and Feebas in Heart Lake were generally a peaceful species, and there was usually nothing significant happening. Therefore, the presence of leaders was essentially decorative.

In the eyes of the Milotic, these two were just idle and, when they had nothing else to do, they either showered each other with affection or got into fights.

Thankfully, apart from their own kind, only a Slowking and a Slowbro lived in Heart Lake. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be able to stand living there, constantly being subjected to their public displays of affection and fights.

Really, it was as if they were living with a couple!

Yuga hadn't expected that the favor Feebas needed help with was this one. It's said that handling family matters is the hardest for even the most upright officials, and he didn't think he could mediate this dispute.

However, Yuga had never heard of the Milotic couple frequently fighting, as every time he saw them, they were happily showering each other with affection and didn't seem like the fighting type.

Could it be that this was their idea of spicing up their marriage?

Regardless, since he was already here, he decided to go and take a look. After explaining the situation to Yuga, the Milotic couple left with their child without looking back.
