Not Being a Trainer This Time

Chapter 403: Chapter 252: Friendship, Tears, Love, and Bonds (4k)

Spectrier continued munching on the Shaderoot Carrot in front of the field.

Naoki began to observe the surrounding environment.

The simplest way to verify the cause of the Crown Tundra carrots’ mutation is through comparative analysis.

The Ancient Tomb is already outside the periphery of the tundra. Although the temperature here remains cold, some cold-resistant green plants have sprouted nearby.

After pondering for a moment, Naoki walked to the land facing the Ancient Tomb and then turned to ask:

”By the way, if you constantly use that power to accelerate crop Growth, will it affect your body?”

Calyrex gently shook his head: ”No, thanks to your Helping Hand and the aid of the beloved horse, my powers have now returned to their peak state. This minor consumption can be quickly replenished.”

”That’s good.” Naoki nodded, then explained his thoughts to Calyrex: ”I intend to plant carrot seeds here, away from the tomb, to compare it with that piece of land to determine the primary factors causing the carrot’s mutation into Shaderoot Carrot.”

Calyrex pondered briefly and nodded: ”A fine idea, then let us begin the experiment!”

Hearing this, Naoki let Koraidon dig a pit in the ground with his claws, then placed a carrot seed into it.

Once he was done, Calyrex floated forward and employed his power to accelerate the seed’s maturation.

Accompanied by a flash of deep blue light, the seed buried in the soil swiftly underwent changes.

Once everything calmed down, there appeared a completely snow-white White Carrot on that piece of land.

Naoki walked up to inspect it, ”It’s the White Carrot favored by Glastrier, although it seems somewhat different from the ones grown earlier.”

Perhaps because the Ice Type Energy here isn’t as abundant as on the tundra, this White Carrot isn’t as pure.

”Is it due to the energy?” Calyrex mused alongside him.

Naoki shook his head: ”It’s not entirely certain yet, but there is another validation method.”

Saying this, he cast his gaze toward Calyrex and the Spectrier who had silently trotted over after finishing the Shaderoot Carrot.

Under Calyrex’s questioning gaze, Naoki asked, ”I recall you can control the aura on Spectrier and Glastrier using Psychic Power, correct?”

Calyrex nodded: ”Indeed, my abilities gradually merged with them over the years spent with my companion horses.”

”When I ride Glastrier, I can use Psychic Power to concentrate its generated cold aura. The enormous ice lance you saw earlier was created by me; I call it ’Glacial Lance.’”

”And when I ride Spectrier, my Psychic Power can blend into its body, enhancing its strength. In an instant, I can create countless wisps of ghostly flames, directing them to fall like meteors from the sky; I call this move ’Astral Barrage.’

Naoki nodded thoughtfully.

Glacial Lance and Astral Barrage are exclusive Moves corresponding to Calyrex when riding Glastrier and Spectrier.

The Psychic Power mentioned by Calyrex presumably refers to his innate Psychic abilities.

”Next, I’d like to ask you to do me a favor,” Naoki said. ”Ride Spectrier and use Psychic Power to condense the Ghost Type Energy from it and gather it onto this field.”

Calyrex immediately understood his intent and nodded slightly: ”I’ll take care of that!”

With that, Calyrex’s form flickered, using Teleport to get onto Spectrier’s back.

One king and one horse merged again, transforming into the Calyrex riding a black horse stance.

The next moment, Naoki saw a mist of ghostly purple wafting from Spectrier’s body, drifting onto this piece of land and merging seamlessly with it.

”It’s done,” Calyrex said.

Naoki nodded, pulled out the White Carrot, and planted the second carrot seed.

Calyrex swung his left hand and activated his power to ensure a bountiful crop once more.

The miraculous blue light flashed past.

In the next second, Naoki saw a familiar Shaderoot Carrot at the spot.

Succeeded? Just as I thought... Naoki pondered.

”This also means Ice Type Energy and Ghost Type Energy are the key for the White Carrots and Shaderoot Carrots to grow,” Naoki murmured.

With this knowledge, he could confidently create experimental fields on the ranch.

Utilizing the Ice Type Energy and Ghost Type Energy from Glastrier and Spectrier, he could cultivate special fields dedicated to growing Shaderoot Carrots and White Carrots for both horses.

Allowing both horses to enjoy their favorite vegetables in the Paldea Region.

It’s perfect!

Naoki immediately shared his discovery with Calyrex.

Upon hearing this, Calyrex’s face also showed a smile: ”In this case, I don’t need to worry about our beloved horses not finding their favored vegetables on the other side.”

Suddenly hearing Calyrex planning to take them away from this snowy field, both Glastrier and Spectrier widened their eyes in disbelief.

To them, this place held significant meaning.

In the ancient Crown Tundra, Glastrier and Spectrier once reigned here as the kings of Pokemon.

Later, humans invaded their domain, and the enraged Spectrier and Glastrier relentlessly attacked humans and their partner Pokemon.
