Chapter 319: Changes after Evolution (Problems that Heimer has to face)
These days, Heimer and the Pokémon are making the final sprint for the grand celebration.
In addition, there is one thing, which is not so much a headache for Heimer as it is that Heimer has not yet found a way to deal with this matter.
That is, the big wolfhound...
Before, after the coyote dog evolved into a big wolf dog, his personality also changed a little.
Well, how should I put it... I have become much more indifferent.
Although Heimer's other Pokémon will also undergo some changes after evolution, since most of them are external changes, Heimer can still find ways to deal with these changes.
For example, after the fur ball evolves into a moth, it has a pair of wings covered with a lot of powder. So when it is excited, the powder on the wings of the moth will scatter all over the ground.
However, this is not a big deal, because after learning mental interference, Moth often cleans up the fallen scale powder by herself. After all, she is the one who likes cleanliness more among Heimer's Pokémon.
Now, facing the inner changes of the coyote-dog after it evolved into a wolf-dog, Heimer was obviously a little... sad...
The coyote dog that used to love hugs and was easily scared has now become aloof and much braver after becoming a big wolf dog.
To put it simply, after the evolution, he almost never hugged Hammer again. His previous clingy personality seemed to have disappeared without a trace in an instant after the light of evolution flashed.
Well, although Heimer is very happy to see the big wolfhound become brave now, but... Every time after interacting with the big wolfhound, Heimer always has a feeling that the big wolfhound no longer needs him.
Thus, Heimer's plan to improve the relationship between himself and the big wolfhound began.
Now, it was two o'clock in the afternoon. After everyone's training was over, Heimer walked cautiously to the big wolfhound.
Chi Haimo: "Well, big wolfhound, you did a good job in training today. Your speed has improved a lot, very good."
(Ah, this kind of purposeful praise should, should not be noticed by the big wolfhound.)
At this moment, after hearing what Heimer said, the big wolfhound just nodded silently.
Feeling that the distance between their hearts had not increased much, Heimer was about to reach out and touch the big wolfhound when he saw this. However, facing Heimer's hand that was about to fall on its head, the big wolfhound actually turned its head away and avoided Heimer's touch.
After that, when Windy saw this scene, he immediately pounced towards Hammer happily and rubbed him happily.
Windspeed: "Awooo~"
It seems that Windy is now saying, yes, I want it too, touch me, touch me.
So, seeing this, Heimer gently touched the Windy Dog and said with a smile.
Chi Haimo: "Yeah, okay~ okay~"
So, just like that, the afternoon operation failed, and this time it was the turn of the evening operation.
It just so happened that there was a thunderstorm tonight, so Heimer specially placed everyone's Poké Balls in the Pokémon Center. Then, Heimer said to the Pokémon.
Chi Haimo: "Well, everyone, let's sleep together tonight, because today is the maintenance day for the Poké Ball."
By choosing this reason, the big wolfhound would have no way to refuse Heimer and return to the Poké Ball alone.
At this moment, except for the giant wolfhound, Jianzimian, Gengar, Windy Hound, Lizardking, and Jigglypuff all happily agreed to Heimer's proposal after hearing the news.
Although the plan looked good, what Heimer did not expect was that Jian Zimian, Gengar, and Windy Dog were so happy that they were chasing each other in the room until very late.
Then, the three guys started playing and fighting with Heimer.
Of course, Heimer had no intention of playing around with them. It was already very late, so Heimer chased them mainly to get them to sleep quickly.
After that, Jigglypuff shook his head helplessly, and then used his singing skills to soothe Jianzimian, Windyhound, and Gengar to sleep.
Afterwards, after saying good night to Hammer, Jigglypuff leaned on the Lizard King's tail and fell asleep peacefully with everyone else.
At this moment, looking at everyone sleeping beside him, Heimer felt a warmth in his heart.
(Hmm… Speaking of which, it seems like it’s been a long time since I and everyone have spent time together like this. Recently, I’ve been busy challenging the Grand Contest and fighting in the Frontier. It’s been a long time since I’ve spent time with everyone…)
Just as Heimer was immersed in this warm atmosphere, suddenly! A thunderstorm broke out in the sky. As expected, the big wolfhound, which was very sensitive to sound, woke up instantly.
Seeing this scene, Heimer officially started his own operation.
Ahem, here’s how Heimer plans to do it. First, he has to think of a reason so that everyone can’t go back to their Poké Balls to sleep at night.
Then, wait for the thunderstorm tonight, because after the thunderstorm, the big wolfhound that is sensitive to sound will definitely wake up.
At this time, Heimer could seize the opportunity to ask the big wolfhound.
Oh, big wolfhound, are you okay? Are you unable to sleep because of the thunder? Well, then, do you want to sleep with me?
In this way, perhaps it would be possible to let the big wolfhound recall the past and thus achieve the purpose of enhancing feelings.
In the past, when the big wolfhound was still a coyote dog that was just born not long ago, he would always be frightened awake by various noises at night, and then he would come to find Heimer hoping to sleep with Heimer.
At that time, the big wolfhound had not yet been tamed by Heimer.
Ahem, back to the topic. At this moment, when Heimer saw the big wolf dog wake up, he immediately ran off the bed and came to the big wolf dog and asked gently.
Chi Haimo: "Big wolfhound, are you okay? Well, are you unable to sleep because of the thunder? Then, do you want to sleep with me on the bed?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the big wolfhound heard Heimer's question, calmly stood up and pushed Heimer, as if asking him to go back to bed.
Seeing this scene, Heimer thought that the big wolfhound had agreed to his invitation, so he immediately returned to bed.
Then... After the big wolfhound covered Heimer with the quilt, it gently patted Heimer rhythmically with its paws over and over again, as if to comfort Heimer.
It seems that the big wolfhound misunderstood. It turned out that after hearing what Heimer said, he thought that Heimer was afraid of thunder and dared not sleep alone. Therefore, the big wolfhound now comforted Heimer in the same way that Heimer comforted him before.
(Big wolfhound...)
At this moment, Heimer realized that the big wolfdog's love for him had not diminished, it's just that the way of expressing it had changed.
(Well, I suddenly feel that I am a little selfish. I actually hope that the big wolf dog will return to its previous state. As a close friend of the big wolf dog, I should support the big wolf dog in choosing the change he likes...)
Chi Haimo: "Sorry... Big wolfhound..."
In response to Heimer's apology, the big wolfhound shook his head gently, as if he was telling Heimer that it was okay.
Although, this one about the big wolfhound has nothing to do with what Heimer said about his apology.
Because, Heimer was apologizing for not supporting the changes chosen by Big Wolf Dog, and Big Wolf Dog's "It's OK" was telling Heimer that it's okay to be afraid of thunder and there's no need to feel sorry.
Afterwards, Heimer leaned in the big wolfhound's arms and fell asleep in a daze.
After that, the big wolfhound carefully got out of bed and covered Heimer with the quilt. Then, the big wolfhound lay down beside the Lizard King and fell asleep.
Well, yes, how could a big wolfhound that has been watered with love since childhood be indifferent?
