บท 70: Chapter 70 Gracidea Flower
"Gracidea Flower!"
After hearing this name, Rex's mind churned, eventually settling on one name: Shaymin.
Shaymin's Land Form resembled a white hedgehog. Its body was white, covered with dense fresh green grass on the upper half, with yellow spots on the green grass. It had a pair of pink flowers on both sides of its body, green eyes, and white legs, relatively short.
Shaymin's Sky Form resembled a dog with longer legs, which turned green. It had red fur around its neck like a scarf, and its head was covered with green fur. White wings were on both sides of its eyes, enabling it to fly.
Shaymin lived in flower beds. By curling its body into a ball, it looked just like a flower, and no one could detect it.
It had the ability to purify toxins in the atmosphere, instantly turning barren land into flower beds.
When people were rejoicing that the harsh winter was finally over and expressing gratitude to the heavens, Shaymin would appear, causing the desolate land to bloom with flowers.
When it was gently held by humans and felt gratitude, flowers would bloom all over its body.
When it smelled the fragrance of rare flowers, its petite body would transform into its Sky Form in the radiance.
It was said that to convey gratitude, it would fly into the sky during the season of Gracidea flowers blooming.
Yes, Gracidea flowers were the items Shaymin used to transform into its Sky Form, or rather, the medium.
"I'd like to ask, do you sell Gracidea flower seeds here?"
Rex inquired.
Indeed, he intended to plant Gracidea flowers, preferably forming a large field of flowers. Although the probability was low, perhaps it could attract wild Shaymin to settle.
Even if he couldn't capture Shaymin, as long as it could help improve the environment of the farm, it would be a big win for him.
"We do have them, but I only have a few Glacidea flower seeds available at the moment. I can only sell you a small quantity. I hope you understand!"
Koko didn't expect the young man in front of her to also want to plant Gracidea flowers. She thought he might want to buy some blooming Gracidea flowers as gifts.
However, she didn't refuse. If someone liked and wanted to plant these flowers, she was very happy. After all, having one more person planting them meant that more people could see these beautiful flowers.
"That's really kind of you, Miss Koko!"
Rex was actually not sure if she would sell him Gracidea flower seeds. After all, in his impression, these flowers were very precious. He didn't expect her to agree without hesitation.
"I'm Koko. Because I like to be surrounded by beautiful flowers, I opened this flower shop!"
Koko introduced herself.
"I'm Rex, I come from Fallarbor Town.
Rex introduced himself as well.
"I see. Then, after you grow Gracidea flowers, could you supply them to my flower shop? After all, the land area here is too small, and the Gracidea flowers I grow are relatively few, which is a bit troublesome!"
Koko didn't know if Rex could grow Gracidea flowers, but she still made the request. Maybe the young man in front of her could bring her some surprises!
"Of course, no problem. But I'll need to wait until I have a large enough scale of Gracidea flowers. It might take some time, Miss Koko!"
Rex didn't expect Koko to want him to become a supplier of Gracidea flowers. But thinking about it, he found it feasible. As long as he grew enough Gracidea flowers, providing some to her wouldn't be a problem.
"That would be great. Please wait a moment; I'll go get the Gracidea flower seeds for you!"
After receiving Rex's affirmative reply, Koko was also very happy. Then she went upstairs to get the seeds.
At this point, Rex finally had time to look around the environment of the flower shop. Although the shop space wasn't particularly large, it didn't feel crowded. Each bouquet of flowers was placed in a suitable position, giving people who entered a unique charm.
Even Rex, who didn't know much about flowers, could feel Koko's sincerity. She wasn't just doing business; she genuinely loved these flowers and enjoyed the happiness they brought to people.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting. Here are the Gracidea flower seeds."
After handing a small packet to Rex, Koko apologized.
"You're too polite. I should be thanking you."
After receiving the small packet, Rex smiled and said.
Then Rex and Koko exchanged phone numbers. During this time, he also received a lot of experience and troubleshooting methods from Koko about planting Gracidea flowers.
Rex could feel that Koko didn't hold back at all, but instead told him all the knowledge she knew about planting Gracidea flowers. From this, he could see her integrity.
"Thank you very much, Miss Koko, for your guidance. With this planting experience, I believe I can grow Gracidea flowers."
When parting, Rex thanked Koko solemnly.
"I hope to hear good news from you."
Koko waved with a smile, full of expectations.
After leaving the beautiful flower shop, Rex went to the Mauville Gym with the joy of harvest. The harvest of this trip was very rich, which surprised him a bit. It seems that his decision to travel more was right.
If he had stayed in the Rex Farm all the time, he would have missed many opportunities.
Although farm life was good, he needed to have stronger power to protect it. Otherwise, when a disaster really struck one day, and he didn't have enough power to protect everything he had, it would be too late to regret.
The Rex Farm was his haven, and he would do his best to build it well.
This was the future home for him and his Pokémon. He wanted to bring all the beauty in the world into it, building an ideal kingdom of beauty and harmony for himself and his Pokémon.
With expectations for the future, Rex finally arrived at the Mauville Gym.
The Mauville Gym was cylindrical in shape, entirely golden, with a huge lightning emblem above the door, which perfectly demonstrated its characteristics as an Electric-type Gym, allowing challengers to understand before entering.
"Hello, I'd like to challenge the Gym. When can I do it?"
After entering the gym, Rex went straight to the front desk to inquire.
"Oh, you want to challenge Master Wattson, right? Do you have any Gym Badges?"
The receptionist at the Mauville Gym was an apprentice with golden hair named Liam, who happened to be on duty today.
"I already have three Gym Badges. Is there a limit on the number of badges to challenge the Mauville Gym?"
Rex was a bit puzzled when he heard the question. After all, the previous Gym challenges didn't require a certain number of badges.
"It's not a limit, but Master Wattson has set a rule. If the challenger has fewer than three badges, it will be a 2v2 battle. For three badges or more, it will be a 3v3 battle. So, you'll have a 3v3 battle."
Liam explained in an official manner, apparently not the first time facing such a question.
"I see. Then, when can I challenge?"
After hearing the explanation, Rex felt that this kind of battle format was quite humanized.
Most trainers, when challenging the first few Gyms, have fewer Pokémon trained, and their combat power hasn't fully developed. It's very likely they can't put together three main battling Pokémon. Obviously, the Mauville Gym established this challenge rule with that consideration in mind.
"Let me check. I'll arrange it for you tomorrow afternoon. The morning slots for challenges are already full!"
Liam looked through a notebook and then replied.
Rex naturally had no objection to this. After registering his information in the notebook provided by Liam, he left the Mauville Gym.
Looking at the time, it was already 1 o'clock in the afternoon. Rex then remembered that his Pokémon hadn't had lunch yet, so he hurried to the Pokémon Center to check in and feed them.
Because he was a bit late for lunch, Rex was scolded by a group of Pokémon. Especially a certain unidentified Torchic was very angry, feeling that his trainer was a bit forgetful. Going to the food street to eat and forgetting about him was unforgivable.
