Chapter 8 Caterpillar and Unicorn Beetle, Courtship Dance (I really don’t want to be chased by the g

【【This chapter is Heimer's diary】】

As we all know, the road to becoming a powerful trainer is always bumpy, so it should be okay to get lost once in a while.

Um, yes, we are lost again...

The map that Dr. Odamaki gave me is really hard to understand. Never mind. It should be the same as last time. I will find the way sooner or later. Uh, I probably will.

Wood Gecko, Mimosa pudica and I are now on our way to Kanaz City. Uh, but now I don’t know if we are taking the right route.

Well, I'll continue looking after lunch. After taking out the folding table and cooking utensils for a while, the delicious food came out of the pot.

Just as the wood gecko and the mimosa pudica were about to come forward to eat, I stopped them.

Chi Haimo: "Wait a minute, you two, next, you have to start trying to eat energy cubes, for the gorgeous competition later."

The wood gecko was obviously unhappy. He gave him the look that Mimosa pudica had taught him and made a thumbs-up gesture.

Apparently, the wood gecko seemed to be saying that he didn't need to rely on energy blocks, and a sharp look was enough.

Chi Haimo: "No, well, you guys try it first anyway, the energy cubes are also delicious."

When the word "delicious" was heard, the wood gecko's eyes lit up instantly, and it stretched out its hand to me. The mimosa pudica said it didn't matter, anything was fine.

I poured out a green energy cube for the wood gecko, and after eating it, the wood gecko showed a disgusted expression. . . . .

Chi Haimo: "Not really. I made it according to the recipe in the reference book. The energy cube made with this recipe should have a herbal scent. Grass Pokémon should like it very much."

After saying that, I stuffed one into my mouth. Um, how should I put it, the taste was like booger. . . . .

Chi Haimo: "Uh, forget it, let's start by eating tree fruits today."

I took out my backpack and originally wanted to take out the fruits from the tree, but who knew that the wood gecko had eaten all the fruits while in my backpack.

Chi Haimo: "Wood Gecko! You actually finished eating it all!"

The wood gecko waved his hands, indicating that the fruits of the tree are meant to be eaten.

There was no choice but to let them continue to eat the food I was eating.

After lunch, I packed my luggage and set out again on the journey to find the way with Booming Ghoul and the others.

Wood Shoko: "Chamo!"

Chi Haimo: "Wooden Guardian, what's wrong?"

The wood gecko discovered a large sweet peach forest. Those pink sweet peaches looked really delicious.

Chi Haimo: "Great, now I can try to make more energy cubes."

I asked the wood gecko to climb up the tree and knock down the sweet peaches, while Mimosa and I caught them below. After a while, we filled a big bag.

Chi Haimo: "Great, there are so many sweet peaches, so it won't be a problem even if I get lost for a few days."

Wood Shogu: "Chamo..."

Shy bud: "Ku Mi..."

Chi Haimo: "Ah, I mean, um ~ this sweet peach smells so good."

Just as we were about to pick some more, many giant hornets and iron-shelled pupae emerged from the sweet peach forest.

Chi Haimo: "Ah, this is impossible..."

One of the giant hornets instantly launched a double-needle attack on the wood gecko and the mimosa. The wood gecko reacted quickly and dodged in time, while the mimosa took the attack directly.

Chi Haimo: "Shy bud!"

Facing the attack of the Beedrill, Mimosa pudica was not afraid. On the contrary, he showed an expression that was even more ferocious than before. He directly used his bud to catch the Beedrill that attacked him, and then threw the Beedrill to the ground repeatedly with great force!

The Beedrill immediately lost its ability to fight after being beaten by Mimosa. The other Beedrills retreated one after another after seeing Mimosa's horrific behavior.

Well, looking at Mimosa's appearance, it seems that he still wants to continue fighting. It seems that he is having a great time fighting. Mimosa's previous ferocious expression turned into an expression of great enjoyment after he defeated Beedrill.

I originally thought that the crisis had been resolved, but who knew that the iron-shell pupae in the sweet peach forest suddenly emerged from the trees along the silk threads. Mimosa originally wanted to get close to pull them all down from the tree, but the iron-shell pupae immediately used silk attacks on Mimosa before Mimosa could jump up, and Mimosa, bound by the silk threads, was instantly unable to move.

Seeing this, the Beedrills prepared to attack again and tried to use a collective double needle attack on the Mimosa pudica.

Chi Haimo: "No, come back, shy bud!"

I immediately took out the Poké Ball and took back the mimosa.

At this time, the Beedrills still wanted to attack us, so I picked up the Wood Gecko directly, then took a step, picked up the backpack, and ran away.

Chi Haimo: "Ahhh, why do I get chased every time I pick fruit from a tree?"

I originally thought I was dead, but somehow, after chasing for a while, those giant horn beetles flew back to the sweet peach forest because of the cry of a horn beetle.

Chi Haimo: "Huh? That's weird."

Out of curiosity, I secretly hid behind a tree and peeked, and found that those giant horn bees were actually serving a horn beetle, and that horn beetle was of a different color!

Chi Haimo: "It's really a spectacle. Let me take a picture for Dr. Odamaki."

Just as I was about to get closer, I accidentally stepped on something.

I looked down and found that it was a caterpillar. Its small green body was really hard to find in the grass.

It seems that because of the kick I just gave him, the Caterpillar has fallen into coma.

Chi Haimo: "Not good, we need to treat his wounds quickly."

So I set up a camp nearby, cut the silk off the mimosa, and then simply treated the caterpillar's wound.

After the silk thread of the mimosa was cut, it stepped on the ground with its little feet unwillingly.

Chi Haimo: "I'm really sorry, shy bud."

Shy bud: "Kiss?"

Chi Haimo: "I'm really sorry that I didn't remind you in time when the iron shell pupa attacked you."

The mimosa patted my arm with its bud, as if saying to me, it’s just a small matter.

Alas, as a trainer, my reaction was still too slow. If I had let Mimosa use the paralysis powder at the beginning, the battle would have been easy.

Green Caterpillar: "Maomao~"

The green caterpillar finally woke up and shook his body on my towel.

Chi Haimo: "You're awake."

When the Caterpillar saw me approaching, it immediately hid behind the tent in fear.

Seeing this, I handed a sweet peach to the wood gecko and asked him to give it to the caterpillar, and explained to the caterpillar that we were not bad people. But who would have thought that the wood gecko took the sweet peach and started eating it directly.

I had no choice but to let Mimosa take action. Mimosa took the sweet peach and walked to the front of the Caterpillar, then showed a very ferocious expression. The Caterpillar became even more scared, so under the strong pressure of Mimosa, it began to eat the sweet peach.

Chi Haimo: "No, Mimosa, you can't scare people like this."

After eating the sweet peach, the caterpillar seemed to calm down.

By the way, when I was treating Caterpillar, I found that in addition to my kick, there were many scars on his body.

Chi Haimo: "By the way, Caterpillar, why do you have so many scars on your body?"

The Caterpillar twisted its body and gestured, but I couldn't understand it at all. I had no choice but to ask the Gecko to translate for me.

After hearing what the Caterpillar said, the wood gecko drew a heart on the ground with a branch.

Chi Haimo: "Um, does this have anything to do with my question just now?"

Seeing that I didn't understand, the wood gecko continued to draw on the ground with a branch.

Well, it looked like the Caterpillar was just expressing that he was in love with someone, so he must have been injured during the confession.

Chi Haimo: "Green Caterpillar, did you get these injuries while you were confessing your love to someone?"

When the Caterpillar heard this question, he blushed and turned around in circles shyly.

Chi Haimo: "In that case, do you want us to help you?"

Green Caterpillar: "Fluffy?"

Chi Haimo: "This is my apology for accidentally stepping on you before."

Uh, but then again, it's so troublesome, I hate love problems the most. Well, but after all, I did step on him accidentally, forget it, just help him.

Well, however, how should one confess one's feelings to someone? Human methods probably won't work on Pokémon.

Chi Haimo: "Well, maybe we can design some small ideas on the appearance, for example."

I took out the ribbon used to tie the biscuit bag from my backpack and tied a beautiful bow around the caterpillar's neck. Then I took out the mirror and showed the caterpillar a look.

Chi Haimo: "What do you think?"

After seeing it, the Caterpillar was so satisfied that he jumped up happily.

Well, I thought about it for a long time and felt that since love is the mutual attraction between two lives, why not just try to dress up as the caterpillar that I am most satisfied with.

But, appearance alone might not be enough. If it is a special trick, well.

I took out the illustrated guide and scanned the caterpillar carefully.

Caterpillar, a bug Pokémon. Although Caterpillar's legs are short, they have suction cups so they can move forward easily regardless of slopes or walls.

The caterpillar's special moves are hitting and spinning silk.

Ah, I really can’t think of any good ideas in such a short time, so I should think of other ways.

At this moment, I was distressed when I saw the caterpillar shaking its body happily.

Chi Haimo: "Oh, right, the courtship dance!"

Green Caterpillar: "Fluffy?"

Isn’t Butterfree’s courtship dance the most romantic way to express love?

Chi Haimo: "How about Green Caterpillar, after evolving into Butterfree, practice the courtship dance, and then you can make a romantic confession."

I thought the Caterpillar would happily agree, but he just shook his head desperately.

Chi Haimo: “Eh?”

After the wood gecko communicated with the caterpillar, it used a branch to draw on the ground for me to see.

So that's how it is. The Pokémon that Caterpillar likes is a Pokémon of similar size to him. No wonder he doesn't want to evolve. Is he afraid that after he evolves, the other party will reject him because of his size?

Chi Haimo: "Then let's practice the courtship dance that's exclusive to green caterpillars."

Green Caterpillar: "Fluffy."

The Caterpillar nodded happily, and we started practicing immediately. After some thought, we decided to practice hula.

The specific process is as follows: after the Caterpillar finishes dancing the hula, he gives flowers to the one he likes, which can be considered a romantic confession.

Chi Haimo: "Then let's get started."

I began to twist my body slowly and sang a song. The wood gecko and the mimosa began to twist their bodies like me. Slowly, although the caterpillar was very shy, he was also infected by the joyful atmosphere.
