Xiao Zhao's eyes lit up, and he puffed up his cheeks like a little hamster, making inarticulate sounds of praise, with a trace of dumpling crumbs still at the corners of his mouth.
Xingyue was much more steady. She just widened her eyes slightly and then nodded affirmatively.
Dr. Laben swallowed the rabbit dumpling and even cleaned the crumbs off the skewer.
Su Yi's mouth twitched, and he said, "Dr. Laben, this is not necessary."
Unexpectedly, Dr. Laben said seriously: "This kind of food is rare. In my hometown of Galar, this kind of exquisite dessert was only available to rich people. So I have to taste it carefully and not waste it at all."
Su Yi was silent. In this era, without farming machines, efficient fertilizers, and the assistance of Pokémon, it was very difficult to have enough food and clothing.
Although Zhuqing Village has developed farmland, the crop yield is far from that of modern times, which is why so many people go to the dangerous wilderness to collect resources to sustain their lives.
Dr. Laben once told him, "You won't have to worry about your life if you join Team Galactic." This indirectly shows that most people are worried about their lives. This is also the reason why the conflict between humans and Pokémon is becoming increasingly acute.
Both are competing fiercely for survival. Forget about taming Pokémon. They can't even eat enough.
Although the taro cake is bland, it is very filling!
The rabbit dumplings in Yanhuo Village are just snacks. There are still many choices if you want to fill your stomach, but even snacks like rabbit dumplings are much more nutritious than taro cakes.
After all, the environment and situation are very different. Although Su Yi complained, he did not mean to look down on him.
Su Yi said softly: "It's okay, I can make this, and there are still a lot, you can eat as much as you want."
"Ok!"
Dr. Laben and Xiaozhao happily took a bite of the taro cake and then ate a rabbit dumpling. Only Xingyue noticed the change in Su Yi's tone.
She swallowed the taro cake and asked Su Yi, "Magamu asked me to clean up the mess, but many villagers asked Team Galaxy to drive away the Pokémon there. What do you think?"
Su Yi was surprised and asked, "Ask me?"
Xingyue nodded and said, "That's right. In this incident, you stood on the side of both humans and Pokémon. You know Pokémon better than I do, so I want to hear your opinion."
Su Yi sneered, "Drive away the Pokémon? This land is so vast, do they have to drive away the Pokémon every time they find a resource point?"
Those resources grow naturally, and whoever picks them up owns them. Ultimately, it is because of the current low productivity of human beings.
"But now there is an opportunity. The burned forest can be reclaimed as farmland."
This is what is called slash-and-burn agriculture.
Xingyue hesitated and said, "But the Pokémon there..."
"Both humans and Pokémon need food, so why can't we cooperate and achieve win-win results? Humans have the wisdom to cultivate and grow crops, which can improve efficiency and increase production. Pokémon have magical abilities to cultivate the land, sow seeds, harvest crops, and bring rain to irrigate the land."
"The two complement each other, and why not share the results? Moreover, with the friendship and help of Pokémon, we can accomplish more things and go further." Su Yi said leisurely.
"But all this is based on the fact that humans and Pokémon can communicate with each other." Xingyue said, staring at Su Yi.
Su Yi understood what she meant instantly, so he said helplessly: "Okay, I will help, but! I will only help you build the foundation for communication. How to proceed specifically depends on the efforts of more people."
"The future will definitely be a world where humans and Pokémon can coexist together."
"Then I'll leave it to you." Xingyue said solemnly.
"However, I still suggest that Team Galaxy develop the land and communicate with Pokémon on their own. Many people's ideas are already deeply rooted, and there is no need to force them if they are unwilling to accept it. But Team Galaxy is an organization moving towards a common goal, and the internal voice must be consistent." Su Yi reminded.
If you are influenced by the opinions of selfish or biased people all day long, you will lose sight of the big picture.
Xingyue nodded and said, "I will come up with a charter. I hope that the beautiful future you mentioned can be realized."
Facing Xingyue's gaze, Su Yi smiled and affirmed: "Such a future will definitely come true, definitely!"
Xingyue turned to look at the taro cakes and rabbit dumplings on the table, muttering: "Now, the future"
After dinner, Su Yi came to the ranch in Zhuqing Village. It was more like a shed than a ranch, where Pokémon were kept.
Su Yi came to a shed, where a tall Xicui Windspeed Dog was lying in a grass nest, with three little Katis leaning against it and sleeping soundly.
"Are you feeling better?"
Su Yi gently stroked the fur of the Windspeed Hound. Its majestic fur and skin were covered with scars due to a series of high-intensity battles, making it look extremely miserable.
"Woo."
Windspeed whined softly, stuck out its tongue and licked Su Yi's hand to express its gratitude to him.
Su Yi stroked the big dog's head and said softly, "Just rest and recuperate. When the time is right, I will take you home."
“Hoohoo.”
Windspeed nodded, then lay down tiredly.
Su Yi looked at the stars in the sky and thought to himself: How are the other friends? Will they be like Arcanine, feeling uneasy and anxious because they were suddenly brought to an unfamiliar environment?
"Let's go find all our friends in the Obsidian Fields tomorrow!"
Su Yi: I need to regroup my troops!
While there was still time, Su Yi did not go back to the dormitory to rest immediately, but brought three friends to the starting beach.
Among the three partners, only Combomon cooperates with him. Snorlax has a good foundation, but has not received much training. He is the kind with great potential, and Rowlet is the weakest.
You don’t know what you’ll encounter on the journey to find your partners, so naturally the stronger your existing partners are, the better.
"Everyone, in order to face the battles that may come next, we need to become stronger. Let's have special training together!" Su Yi encouraged.
Infernape and Snorlax responded positively, but Rowlet was a little confused.
"Mumuxiao, you should learn a few more useful moves first."
At the moment, Owl only knows how to "Raise the Wind", which is far from enough. However, the Rotom mobile phone is not on Su Yi, and the Arceus mobile phone does not have the ability to read the moves learning device, so he can only teach him personally.
"How did Xiaozhi teach Owlbit how to use a machine gun?"
Su Yi thought about it, took out a watermelon and cut it into several slices.
"Goooo~"
Seeing the sweet fruit, Mumuxiao shouted happily.
Su Yi laughed and said, "We just finished dinner, how can you still eat more? Be careful or you will become a fat chicken!"
Owl's body is already round, and if it were fatter it would really become a ball. No wonder the extremely hungry Snorlax saw it as a big dumpling at first glance.
"Watch out, this is how you use the seed machine gun!"
Su Yi took a few bites of the melon flesh, then spat out the seeds.
"Goooo~"
Mumuxiao followed Su Yi's example and ate a few bites of watermelon, then started to learn from him.
"Okay! Keep this feeling and try to release it with grass-attribute energy." Su Yi encouraged.
"Goooo!"
Mumuxiao became full of energy.

Chapter 494 News about the Third Partner
The next morning, when Su Yi went to the Galaxy Team headquarters building, he heard the villagers discussing something like thunderstorms.
"Should we start?"
This was a sign, meaning that those five special Pokémon were about to go berserk.
Su Yi walked into Xingyue's office, Xiaozhao and Dr. were also there.
"Xiao Zhao has a mission today and will act with the doctor. As for Su Yi, I'll leave it to you today. The members of the guard team and the farming team will set off with us." Xingyue assigned the tasks efficiently and concisely and prepared to set off.
Outside the door, Belira was with several young members of the guard team, and a man with a hairstyle similar to that of the Grass-type Gym Leader of the Sinnoh region, Naoto, was with several members of the farming team.
"Hey, Brother Su Yi, I'll leave it to you today." Belila said with a smile.
"I don't dare to think about cultivating the land with Pokémon." The leader of the farming team named Caihua scratched his head.
Xingyue said, "Let's go!"
On the way to the burned forest, Xingyue stepped away from the team and said to Su Yi: "Captain Ma Jiamu and I proposed your suggestion this morning, but he thought it was too ruthless. We still need the support of the villagers, so we should try our best to help."
Su Yi sighed and said, "No, do you really want to be bodyguards? It's fine if they are willing to listen to Team Galaxy, but I'm afraid they'll help some ungrateful people."
Xingyue explained: "We still have to prioritize the stability of the village, but as long as we make achievements, we will naturally be able to convince the majority of people. At the same time, I also want to expand the investigation team, support Dr. Laben's investigation, and promote Pokémon."
Xingyue’s idea is simple, step-by-step, and he also has a general plan.
Su Yi nodded repeatedly after hearing this. He looked at the team in front, pulled Xingyue back a little, and then said casually and jokingly: "Team Leader Xingyue, I think your ability is quite suitable for leading the Galaxy Team."
Xingyue's leadership ability is definitely the most outstanding in the entire Galaxy team. Magamu may be more prestigious, but he is somewhat indecisive, easily follows others blindly, and sometimes not cautious enough.
Su Yi: Team Leader Xingyue, how about we rebel and take that old man’s gold coins!
Xingyue glared at Su Yi when she heard that.
She said seriously, "It was Captain Magam who formed the Galaxy Team and recognized our abilities. He knows how to use people well. He will always be our captain, and he is the only one who can decide the affairs of the Galaxy Team. I am very happy that you recognize me so much, but don't mention such things again!"
Su Yi shrugged his shoulders and didn't care. What was going to come would come. There was one good thing about Magamu, which was that he knew himself well.
Before entering the burned forest, everyone spotted little cat monsters on the outskirts, and they seemed to be searching for food.
According to Xingyue, this was originally an area rich in fruit trees, but now that it has been burned down, the Pokémon here are going to starve.
Su Yi took the initiative to step forward and communicate with the little cat monsters. After a while, the familiar Leke cat and the lion-like leader Roentgen cat came out.
Belila's guard team was fine, after all, they had seen them once before. Caihua's farming team were farmers who did not participate in the battle. At this time, they were trembling and almost wanted to leave first.
"Is it really possible to coexist with such creatures?" Caihua said in a trembling voice.
Berilla smiled and said, "The abilities of the Roentgen cat are very suitable for the guard team. I wonder if there is a chance to capture a little cat monster or a Luke cat to train."
After Su Yi had a detailed communication with the leader Roentgen Cat, he handed over the specific matters to the Galaxy Team. He could not participate in the whole process. He gave them an opportunity, and it all depended on them what kind of future they could create.
Because Berilla had a brief cooperation with the Roentgen cats, and Berilla had a generous and outgoing personality, she was soon able to communicate with them in a simple way.
"Just!"
At this time, the leader Snorlax came out of the forest on the other side with a group of little Snorlax. It looked at the leader Roentgen Cat vigilantly, and the leader Roentgen Cat also growled and looked at it.
"Just?! Just, just!"
Snorlax immediately trotted over happily to say hello, and then said something to it seriously and sincerely.
