"Leon, this is the last habitat you'll be taking care of. This was supposed to be given to the senior care takers but they all refused. Besides Mother Chelone, the other two Monarchs, are hard to deal with as you've already met Keristrasza. She hates caretakers." Mike informed.
Thank Mew I could see her status. They probably can't imagine a tsundre charizard, Leon giggles inwardly.
"I'll try my best to help you and Prof. Oak." Leon said with a determined face.
"The Venasaur's habitat is located in a rainforest, so the trees are moist. All the three monarchs' habitats are kept hidden, so you'll have to use the care taker teleporting services." Mike said.
After a few minutes we were met by a group of bulbasaurs lead by an ivysaur. "Ivysaur Ivy"
"Lady Heqet still has a guest over? It's fine we can wait." Mike affirmed. So, we sat near a stump and waited.
"Soooo, Mike… Do you think I'll be given a pokemon?" Leon enthusiastically inquired.
"Nope, you have to be at the age of 12 to legally own pokemon," Mike replied.
Leon's shoulders droop down and looked disappointed. When Mike saw his expression he added, "Well maybe great grandpa can give you one if he sees you doing well. He is one of the alliance leaders. He can probably bend the rules a little if he wants to."
*Ting! Passive skill learned: Puppy Eyes (N)
It worked! Leon chuckled inwardly.
"Really? The professor can do that?" Puppy Eyes activated* Leon asked.
"Ermm… Yeah… definitely" Mike Nodded unsurely. "I have to ask great grandpa to bend the rules just this once," Mike thought.
The ivysaur beckoned them with his vines "Ivysaur! Ivy".
"Alright Leon, let's go. Lady Heqet will see us now." Mike informed. Then, they followed the ivysaur.
Moments later, they arrived at a wide-open space with a gigantic tree in the middle, as its branches almost cover the entire space above. Beneath it, lies a big stump where a huge venasaur was resting on it.
Leon used appraisal.

"Lady Heqet, I'd like to introduce to you Leon. He will be your new care taker. He has already gained the approval of Mother Chelone and Great Keristrasza," Mike said.
"Ah yes, little Keri has already informed me. He indeed has a likeable aura around him. As long as he keeps up, we won't have any problems." Heqet replied.
"Thank you, Lady Heqet. I'll do my best." Leon bowed.
"Thank you, Lady Heqet. We will be on our way now and Leon will start tomorrow," Mike informed.
Heqet just waved her vine and went back to sleep.
Mike took out his pokeball, "Kirlia come out! Take us back to the lab." Kirlia obeyed.
Leon took a quick glance at Mike's Kirlia.
