In fact, Venusaur didn't place too much value on the Awakening Fruit.
In its eyes, the value of the Awakening Fruit wasn't even as high as some life-saving Tree Fruit that could heal injuries.
After eating the Awakening Fruit, only a few Bulbasaurs and Bulbasaurs could awaken the "Awakened power," and it wasn't guaranteed that every consumption of the fruit would lead to the awakening of special abilities.
Moreover, even after awakening, very few Pokemon were able to train their Awakened power to a very strong extent.
In the entire Bulbasaur Forest, the only Pokemon that had developed the "Awakening Power Technique" enough to be a trump card was a Giant Venusaur.
The same was true for the outside world; although ordinary Awakened powers were rare and not many Pokemon could master them, there were very few Trainers and Pokemon that could develop their Awakened powers to a high degree.
Eevee's Fire Awakening was so powerful because it relied on further development with Solar Energy.
Monferno's Awakened Electricity was also powerful due to the Acting training method and the Thunder Flame Mode.
If there was no follow-up development, ordinary Fire Awakening and Awakened Electricity would not even be stronger than the native Moves of Fire Punch and Thunderbolt of the same attribute Spirits.
Therefore, Venusaur didn't really understand why Fang Yuan was smiling so widely at the moment...
Soon, Fang Yuan obtained 10 Awakening Fruits; with so many, he could give one each to Glutton, Dragonite, and Rotom.
Although normal Awakened powers were very common, as a Trainer who had tasted the sweetness in mastering Awakening Power Techniques, Fang Yuan naturally wanted to try more.
What if the Awakened power could bring about some special changes for Glutton, Dragonite, and Rotom?
At the very least, it wouldn't be a loss.
The remaining fruits could be handed over to see if they could be planted and cultivated outside of the Secret Location.
If that were possible, it would fundamentally make the Awakening Power Techniques learnable and masterable.
As the discoverer, Fang Yuan's contributions would certainly be significant. Besides that, the Awakening Fruits could also be gifted to others, which was a good option.
"We'll meet again, and soon." After finishing his task in the Bulbasaur Forest, Fang Yuan planned to help relieve the pressure on several other seniors.
Fang Yuan guessed that the Bulbasaur Forest would eventually become a protected area.
On the original Earth, concepts like protecting wild animals, protecting ecosystems, and natural conservation existed. In this world, with the presence of Pokemon, these concepts were even more emphasized.
Humans would naturally not leave the wild resources untouched, but they would also not overexploit them. The concept of sustainable development was now the mainstream viewpoint.
History has proven that nations that failed to find the right balance in their relationship with Pokemon and achieve harmonious coexistence have all declined and ultimately perished.
"Bulba!!!" The leader of the Venusaurs called out, watching Fang Yuan leave.
...
"Dragonite, hold on a moment."
After leaving the Bulbasaur Forest and flying halfway, still a long distance from the Carnivorous Flower territory, Fang Yuan suddenly called a halt.
"Let's rest for five minutes, and you all can have some fruit to quench your thirst," Fang Yuan said smilingly. Rest was one aspect, but on the other hand, he was eager to see what attributes Glutton and Dragonite would awaken.
During the journey, Fang Yuan and Eevee had confirmed that Heal Bell indeed could remove the confused state of the Secret Realm Sprites, although it was more troublesome than special medications. Maybe once Eevee broke through to the top tier, it could do this very easily.
But that wasn't the point. After landing, Fang Yuan distributed Energy Blocks to all the Pokemon to replenish their Physical Strength. As for Glutton and Dragonite, he naturally also set aside Awakening Fruits for them.
Even Rotom got an Awakening Fruit; though it was not one of the main Elves and wouldn't be involved in combat, what if it too awakened a Superpower? That would increase its computational ability, right? It's beneficial for research as well. In any case, eating one couldn't hurt.
"Whooah!!!" Just as Fang Yuan was distributing Energy Blocks and Awakening Fruits, the only one not released by Fang Yuan, Monferno, struggled inside its Poké Ball and then ran out on its own.
Monferno had been resting inside its Poké Ball recently, not helping, training, or fighting, so theoretically, there was no need for Physical Strength replenishment, which was why Fang Yuan didn't call it out. Now, seeing Monferno running out on its own, Fang Yuan was puzzled and asked, "Do you also need a Physical Strength boost?"
Eevee, Self-detonating Magnetic Monster, Glutton, Dragonite, Milotic, Rotom, and Klink all looked at the silent Monferno.
"Whooah!!!" Monferno shook its head, indicating it just wanted to get some air.
Actually, Monferno mainly wanted to see what attributes Glutton and Dragonite would awaken...
Milotic had awakened a Psychic Type superpower set move, making the Fighting Type Monferno feel like the entire world was against it.
Now, it hoped to find a trace of warmth from the Glutton and Dragonite—anything but a Psychic, Water, Flying, or Ground-type would do!
"Crack!!" At this moment, the Glutton could hardly wait, it threw an Awakening Fruit into its mouth and began to chew rapidly.
Dragonite had not had the chance to eat yet; as they watched the Glutton wolf down the fruit, their attention was naturally drawn to it. Milotic was a Psychic type, but what would the Glutton be?
An Eating Type Awakened power?
Glutton: ("▔□▔)
As the fruit went down, the Glutton's expression became strange, the taste of the tree fruit was even lousier than it had imagined...
Trash! It regretted getting its hopes up.
However, at the same time, the Glutton truly felt a new force awakening within it!
Boom!!
Under the Glutton's gaze, a ball of flame appeared before it, a red flame—not the purple Ghost Fire.
At that moment, the Glutton understood that it had awakened a Fire-type Awakening power similar to Big Sister Eevee.
"It's Fire-type Rotom!!!" Rotom exclaimed in surprise.
"Fire-type, huh..." Fang Yuan couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed, yet it was somewhat expected, given the Glutton's fondness for playing with fire.
But for the Glutton, which could already use the Fire Punch, the Fire-type Awakened power was truly superfluous, and this Awakening Fire seemed so weak, weaker even than the Glutton's own Ghost Fire Technique, not to mention the Black Flame.
(•‾̑⌣‾̑•)✧˖° Monferno observed and then froze, what a weak flame, less destructive than the Glutton's own Ghost Fire, an utterly useless Awakened power. To Monferno, the only words to describe the Glutton's Awakening Fire were "warmth!!"
Warmth on both a physiological and psychological level.
The Glutton was there to bring it warmth!!
However, in the next moment.
The Glutton scratched its head, suddenly feeling as if a wonderful change was occurring in its body. After the awakening of the fire, it seemed to have greater control over fire.
Swish!!!
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the Awakening Fire gradually turned into a purple Ghost Fire, and then slowly shifted towards black...
In the end, the Black Flame landed on the ground. The Glutton, covered in sweat, looked at the Black Flame. After staring for a dozen seconds, the Black Flame slowly extinguished.
"Yiheiheiheiheihei!!!!" After hesitating for a moment, the Glutton was ecstatic; although it was difficult, it could now preliminarily control whether or not the Black Flame extinguished.
Did this mean that the powerful Black Flame could now be used in normal battles???
The strength had simply jumped to another level.
"This..." Fang Yuan's mood shifted from disappointment to surprise—three months of intensive training without results, and yet, the Black Flame was preliminarily controlled with the help of the Awakened power???
"Great, keep up the training. By the time the third Fang Yuan Conference comes, you won't need to ban your Black Flame anymore. After evolving into Gengar and with stronger spiritual power, perhaps you could fully master it!" Fang Yuan said with joy.
"Si Si Ta!!" The Glutton was equally excited.
The other Pokemon's moods varied.
At first, the most sentimental Monferno froze in place, seeing the Glutton's smile.
The... the third Fang Yuan Conference??
In Monferno's eyes, the Glutton's smile seemed to mock it.
In Monferno's imagined scene of the Fang Yuan Conference, it seemed as if the Glutton was saying:
"Brother Monkey, Brother Monkey, I hear you're a Fire Type Pokemon!! But why aren't you as good with fire as I am, a ghost? Trash..."
