Capítulo 408: Shuri
Upon returning to the Day Care, Yuga noticed that all the customers were gathered around the television, and he then realized that there was breaking news being broadcast.
Another one of the Elite Four had stepped down, and the new Elite Four member who took their place was a young Elite Trainer named Phoebe.
Now, aside from Glacia, the Elite Four members matched what Yuga remembered.
Glacia was older than both Sidney and Phoebe, but she wasn't originally from the Hoenn region. It was unclear when she had arrived in Hoenn.
The television was currently showing the transition ceremony between the outgoing and incoming Elite Four members.
Similar to Phoebe, the previous Elite Four member had been a specialist in Ghost-type Pokémon. He was quite elderly, almost as old as Mr. Moore, although Yuga didn't know much about him, as he hadn't paid attention to this kind of news before.
That person was Cecilia's father.
Just then, the voice of Gengar entered Yuga's mind.
"Are you talking about the Elite Four member on TV?" Yuga communicated with Gengar using his special ability, expressing disbelief.
"Yes!" Gengar's thoughts came through again.
Gengar's words made Yuga feel like he still had much to learn. He looked again at the television, at the kind, smiling old man, and couldn't reconcile this image with that of a ruthless killer of women and children.
This veteran Ghost-type Elite Four member was named Bridges, and he had held his position for nearly two decades. Even though Yuga wasn't familiar with him, he had heard that Bridges was highly regarded and known for his numerous contributions to the League. He was also frequently featured on television for his charitable endeavors.
Yuga had also heard that after his first wife's death, Bridges had waited ten years before marrying his second wife, showing great respect for his first wife. Was all of this just a façade?
Just by looking at the television and seeing the cheerful expression on Bridges' face, Yuga found it hard to believe that this was Cecilia's father, let alone connect him to the image of a villain.
"Are you sure you're not fooling me? He doesn't look like it!" Yuga again communicated with Gengar using his special ability.
This time, Gengar didn't respond, seemingly displeased with Yuga's lack of trust.
"Well, it seems I've encountered an Elite Four member as an enemy, and I'll have to wait until I've grown my wings. If things really get tough, I can only say sorry to you, Muya," Yuga thought.
Yuga returned to the Ecopark, selected several saplings from the mutant Jaboca berry tree, and then headed to the Grassland Sub-Ecopark to continue his experiments. The open space there was suitable, and it allowed Grass-type Pokémon to take care of the fields while also looking after the saplings.
However, when Yuga entered the Grassland Sub-Ecopark, he witnessed a rather eye-catching scene: three Delcattys were all chourting the Persian simultaneously, and what was more surprising was that the Persian wasn't refusing any of them.
Seeing the Persian's proud face with a triumphant expression, Yuga couldn't help but think that this dead cat had the dame virtues as the Gliscor Leader.
The three Delcattys had only recently evolved and were already captivated by their leader. Was it really necessary to deceive inexperienced ignorant female cat ike this?
Furthermore, shouldn't Delcattys have some dignity? Where was the elegance? All Yuga saw were only three infatuated female cats.
(Note : Delcatty chinese name is Elegant Cat)
Seeing that Yuga had entered the Ecopark, the Persian raised an eyebrow at him. As a single dog, Yuga suddenly felt like he had taken a critical hit.
Seeing that his provocation was successful, the Persian who was lying on the grass raised his head high, then stood up and left with his girlfriends arrogantly, leaving Yuga vomiting blood on the spot.
"Did I offend you in some way? I'm your provider, after all. Is it really necessary to be so provocative?" Yuga felt that it was too difficult for him.
Recalling the time when they were at Professor Birch's lab, the Persian should have been interested in Professor Birch's assistant, Aru. Unfortunately, Aru had avoided the Persian when it was still a Meowth, and that's why Yuga had ended up bringing it to the YoYo Day Care.
But isn't it your own fault if someone doesn't like you? Yuga couldn't help but think.
Shaking his head in resignation, Yuga picked up the mutant Jaboca berry saplings and continued with his farming work.
A few more days passed.
On this day, as Yuga returned from the new shop to the old one, he was surprised to find Grandma Lanca inside the store, accompanied by a young boy.
"Grandma Lanca, what brings you here? Are you looking to buy Pokéblocks?" Yuga greeted her warmly.
"Oh, Little Yuga, I didn't know you were in the store," Grandma Lanca replied with a smile.
At that moment, Suzuki Koen approached, followed by a Trapinch that was trotting alongside her.
"Grandma Lanca is this month's client for Trapinch," Suzuki Koen introduced.
Since Grandma Lanca had previously purchased a Lotad from the store, she was a regular customer for Pokéblocks. Suzuki Koen and Grandma Lanca had become acquainted over time.
"Yes, indeed. This is my grandson, and I reserved the Trapinch for him," Grandma Lanca said with a smile, pointing to the young boy beside her.
The more Yuga looked at the young boy, the more familiar he seemed. So, he couldn't resist giving him a longer glance.
"Hello," Yuga finally remembered, looking surprised. "Oh, it's you! I remember you came to our store."
"Yes... I came once," the boy replied somewhat uneasily.
Back then, he had visited Verdanturf Town to see his grandparents, and upon learning that there was a Day Care in town, he had come to check it out.
This young boy was, in a sense, the very first customer at Yuga's store, although he hadn't bought anything during his initial visit.
At that time, Yuga had just arrived in this world, and the child came to the store and asked if there were any Pokémon from Kanto region. He had thought that this boy might be a sheltered rich kid, which as it turns out, he was.
(Note : if you're forgot this kid is the one that asking Yuga about Dratini, Charmander, and Growlithe in early chapter. it should be in Chapter 2)
Grandma Lanca was not a native of Verdanturf Town, and Yuga didn't know exactly what her family did, but he knew that they were wealthy and influential. Due to Grandma Lanca's health condition, she had been staying with her husband at the recuperation facility in Verdanturf Town.
"My son prepared an initial Pokémon for this boy. However, he believes that to become an excellent Trainer, one Pokémon won't be enough. So, when he came to visit me this time, I decided to reserve another one for him at your store," Grandma Lanca explained.
Yuga nodded in understanding. It was a common idea among wealthy individuals that having more than one Pokémon was essential for aspiring Trainers.
Grandma Lanca had a great deal of trust in YoYo Day Care. Back when Yuga's parents were still around, they had been acquainted with Grandma Lanca. So, she considered YoYo Day Care before thinking of the more well-known Day Care in Hoenn. Currently, YoYo Day Care might not have much reputation, but its Pokémon quality was on par with the larger Day Carr; it simply had fewer in quantity.
After Grandma Lanca's introduction, Yuga learned that the boy's name was Shuri, and he was eleven years old. He attended the Trainer Middle School and followed an academic approach, similar to Genos' sister. Shuri didn't go on Trainer journeys and seemed rather inexperienced, likely due to his limited life experiences.
In the meeting room, Shuri quickly hit it off with Trapinch, as pure-hearted children were often easily accepted by Pokémon.
Just as Yuga was about to leave, he witnessed Shuri taking out a Premier Ball and releasing a Dratini, which began playing with Trapinch.
Seeing this scene, Yuga thought, "No wonder he asked for a Dratini right away when he first came to the store. He really does have the means to get even a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon like a Dratini as his starter."
Not long after Shuri and Grandma Lanca arrived, Shiho and Mr. Kobayashi also came. The two kids quickly became friends in the meeting room, primarily because Shuri was quite lively. Otherwise, given Shiho's reserved nature, it would have been challenging for them to play together.
