In the game, Bulbasaur learns this skill at level 24, while in the real world, there seems to be no order in which skills are learned; these skills are all imprinted deep within its genes.
It seems that the sweet sandwich gave Bulbasaur a little inspiration.
"Dah!" Bulbasaur cried out joyfully, seemingly noticing the changes in its body.
The Sweet Scent skill, once used, emits a sweet aroma, reducing the opponent's evasion rate.
Some Pokémon use the Sweet Scent simply to release an aroma that makes enemies give up the will to fight. However, for Pokémon like Bulbasaur, which has both Grass and Poison types, the Sweet Scent likely contains a small amount of paralyzing or hypnotic substances mixed in with it.
This means that Bulbasaur might soon learn moves like Poison Powder and Sleep Powder.
Magikarp watched with envy as Bulbasaur and Fang Gu interacted, knowing absolutely nothing about skills.
It can only train its jumping height every day.
Just as Magikarp was feeling dejected, Fang Gu walked towards it with the remaining third of the sandwich.
"Here, this is your share."
Fang Gu wore a gentle smile, holding a sandwich in his hand, waiting for Magikarp to surface.
But the Magikarp shook its head and sank to the very bottom of the tank.
He even turned his head away, refusing to look at Fang Gu.
A hint of helplessness appeared on Fang Gu's face. He had already thought of this; a smart individual like Magikarp would have an especially delicate mind.
When faced with external stimuli, it doesn't adopt the same deadpan expression as other Magikarp, but instead expresses its emotions through its actions.
Fang Gu gently tapped the fish tank.
With each thud, the water in the fish tank trembled as if it were the heart of a carp king.
Fang Gu said quietly, "No matter what, you can't skip meals."
"At that time, you won't even have the strength to jump."
"I also want to see you leap up, over thousands of mountains and rivers, and over the Dragon Gate."
"By then, you will definitely become the most powerful Gyarados."
Fang Gu's words formed in Magikarp's mind, and a hint of emotion flickered in its dead fish eyes.
It had once seen Gyarados at the estuary, where they leaped and danced on the sea surface, performing a mysterious ritual to summon storms.
The powerful hurricane disrupted the calm of the sea, with countless seawater waves being swept up by the storm and carried upstream.
But those Gyarados were fearless.
One leap!
Rise with the wind amidst the storm!
Chapter 47 Breakfast Time
Can I become a Gyarados like that?
Magikarp was filled with anticipation.
Yes, it will! It definitely will!
Isn't the reason why you keep training to jump so that you can become a Gyarados that can fly into the sky?
Magikarp surfaced and ate the sandwich in Fang Gu's hand in one gulp.
A warm feeling filled Magikarp's body, and it seemed that its bones and muscles had become even stronger.
Magikarp apologized, rubbing its golden whiskers against Fang Gu's palm.
Then, it sank into the water, and as if taking a running start, it surged from the bottom of the tank straight to the surface and leaped up.
Under Fang Gu's astonished gaze, Magikarp shot towards the ceiling like an arrow released from a bow.
It was just a hair's breadth away from touching the ceiling of the cabin.
This is a height that Magikarp had never dared to imagine before.
"Crash!"
Magikarp fell back into the tank from the air, and the overflowing water seemed to celebrate for Magikarp, bursting into the air like fireworks.
Fang Gu couldn't dodge in time and got splashed with water in his face.
But the smile on his face was genuine, and even Bulbasaur stretched out its vines as if applauding Magikarp's progress.
Fang Gu walked into the fish tank and said, "I told you, you need to be full to have the strength to jump."
"That was just an appetizer; there will be sandwiches later."
"However," Fang Gu glanced at his clothes, which were still dripping wet, "I might need to change my clothes first."
At this moment, Magikarp was like a mischievous child who couldn't help but laugh, its tail swaying and its eyes full of dependence on Fang Gu.
When Fang Gu came out after changing his clothes, Bulbasaur had already called the three bees back at Fang Gu's request.
Its method is to use a sweet fragrance skill to disguise itself as a flower with a strong fragrance, attracting the three bees back.
Of course, in the end, Bulbasaur still let the three bees suck the nectar from its seed.
"Time to eat."
Fang Gu prepared sandwiches with Miracle Honey for all three Pokémon. Since the three bees had already eaten nectar outside, Fang Gu prepared smaller sandwiches for them, but still with plenty of Miracle Honey.
Fang Gu himself ate a butter sandwich with scrambled eggs and ham.
This sandwich inherits the benefits of the Vitality Fried Egg, providing Fang Gu's tired body with protein to repair it.
Fang Gu also prepared this kind of sandwich for Robin.
Fang Gu swallowed the last bite of his sandwich, looked at Fang Xiaolu's room, and felt a little puzzled.
Although Fang Xiaolu likes to stay in bed, she should normally be up by this time.
Could it be that……
The next moment, Fang Xiaolu, with red eyes and faint dark circles under her eyes, yawned and came out of the room.
She was grumpy from waking up, and her hair was so messy.
Fang Gu thought to himself, "Oh no! Could it be that Fang Xiaolu's Pokémon affinity has failed?"
Fang Gu subconsciously comforted him, "It's okay, one defeat doesn't mean anything, and building a bond with Pokémon isn't an easy thing..."
Fang Xiaolu hugged Fang Gu tightly and started crying, "Brother Fang Gu, Miao Miao is so pitiful!"
The next moment, a grayish figure cautiously peeked out from Fang Xiaolu's room.
It's the new cat that Fang Xiaolu has just tamed.
Fang Gu instantly realized something was wrong. If Fang Xiaolu hadn't captured Meow Meow, how could such a wary Meow Meow have appeared in front of him?
Miao Miao waved her hand, which looked like she was wearing a white glove, at Fang Gu with a blank expression.
"Meow." [Meow... I know you. Lulu said you're my older brother...]
Although Fang Gu couldn't understand Miao Miao's words, he still sighed inwardly.
"That's the cool-faced cutie!!"
The brother and sister are practically in sync.
…………
At the dinner table, Meowth sat in Fang Xiaolu's lap, trying its best to block the curious gazes of the three Pokémon from Fang Xiaolu's body.
"It seems that Magikarp, Tribeca, and Bulbasaur all want to be your friends."
Watching Miao Miao eat her sandwich, Fang Gu suddenly felt like a new dad, and his face lit up with a smile.
"Meow." [Meow... I get shy when people stare at me...]
Unfortunately, Fang Gu could not understand its words.
Fang Xiaolu, who could understand, smiled and pretended to be playing on her phone, without saying anything.
As for Miao Miao's past experiences and the fact that she belatedly realized she could understand Miao Miao's speech, Fang Xiaolu told her brother everything without reservation.
She believed in her brother unconditionally from the bottom of her heart.
And Fang Gu never betrayed her trust.
Regarding Meow Meow's past, Fang Gu can only say that fate may have played a joke on Meow Meow, making its family and companions arrive a little late. But it doesn't matter, from now on, Stardew Valley Ranch will be Meow Meow's eternal home.
"Is it tasty?"
Fang Gu blinked at Miao Miao, his eyes full of affection.
Miao Miao blushed under their gaze and nodded silently.
Oh my, how is this little Meow Meow made? It's so adorable!
Immediately, Fang Gu turned his attention to Fang Xiaolu.
Fang Gu was surprised that Fang Xiaolu could understand Miao Miao's speech, but he quickly accepted it.
After all, Fang Xiaolu has been loved by various Pokémon since she was a child, and in the Pokémon world, it is not uncommon for humans to have extraordinary abilities.
Team Rocket's Giovanni and Yellow both possess the Viridian Power, a gift from Viridian Forest. There are also many Aura Warriors who travel with Lucario, not to mention Psychic Pokémon like Sabrina from Saffron City and Cattleya from the Unova Elite Four, who can use Psychic-type Pokémon-like powers.
Compared to this, Fang Xiaolu, who can understand Miao Miao's speech, is actually just average.
Moreover, Fang Xiaolu can only understand Meowth at this stage, and cannot understand other Pokémon.
It's alright, as long as Meowth can understand what other Pokémon are saying. It seems Meowth is destined to become the great diplomat of Stardew Valley Ranch.
Regarding the part about Miao Miao's cold exterior but warm heart.
"Cough cough!"
Just as Fang Gu was immersed in this moment of harmony, Fang Xiaolu, who was scrolling through videos, suddenly widened her eyes as if she had seen something incredible.
She held up her phone and showed it to Fang Gu.
"Brother, is this our account?"
Fang Gu looked at the newly released video on [Stardew Valley Ranch], which was the video he had slightly edited and posted last night.
