Chapter 287: Enchanting Poké Puffs

"The Great Cooperation of the Striaton City Trio!"

"Grass-type Cilan chooses high-quality tea leaves, Water-type trainer Cress prepares the best water, Fire-type trainer Chili uses moderate fire to boil water, and thus the best tea is born!"

"Of course, there is no lack of help from Pokémon here."

"The leaves on Pansage's head, the nutrient-rich water on Panpour's head, the fragrant fire of Pansear!"

"Ah~ what good tea, as expected, the Striaton restaurant is the best."

Fennel drank a cup of hot tea with satisfaction, her pretty face flushed, the whole person looking like she was about to melt, and even her art style changed.

The tea in Striaton City is very famous and well-known in the Unova region!

And Cilan was very happy about Xiang Guangtai's arrival, so...

"This is the famous tea of Striaton City! Please accept it!"

【Item/Material: Striaton Famous Tea! (Lilligant Herbal Tea)】

【Description: A very famous tea planted in Striaton City, a fragrant and pleasant tea. Take a sip, and it clears the throat and moistens the lungs. Some Pokémon love it very much and will increase intimacy; people will also feel physically and mentally comfortable after drinking it, which is beneficial to physical health.】

Tea is also an important item in the Pokémon world.

It's just that in the game, it's only effective in limited areas.

Using tea can bribe the thirsty guard and enter Saffron City.

Celadon City and Saffron City in the Kanto region have very famous tea leaves; after all, Celadon City is the city of Erika, the Grass-type expert.

Xiang Guangtai had purchased special ghost tea leaves before to cultivate the Doublade at the time.

"Thank you, I will accept it with gratitude."

"Not at all! It is we who should thank you!"

Cilan was still very happy.

"The special taste you showed when cooperating with Pokémon made me fascinated."

"That is the wild natural flavor!"

Ah, has it entered the "tasting session"?

"Hmm..." Cilan and his two brothers suddenly discussed:

"How about developing a new dish based on that Pokémon just now?"

"Ah! That's a good idea!"

"The delicacy of a giant dragon, only the strong can appreciate its deliciousness! Dragon-type is a very complex taste!"

The three brothers started chatting and began to ask for Xiang Guangtai's opinion; after all, the giant dragon just now had never appeared in Unova.

And the Entree here has already connected with the Trio Badge.

【Obtained: Trio Badge.】

【Description: A symbol of defeating the Striaton Gym, the design concept is a tie clip, inlaid with blue, red, and green gemstones. Holder of the Trio Badge! No matter when, you must constantly challenge!】

【Effect: Proof of participating in the Pokémon League and opening the door, it is a reward item.】

【Note: The Entree has connected with the Trio Badge and acquired knowledge—Trio Power.】

【Water, Fire, and Grass are the most important attributes that make up the Pokémon world. They restrain each other to form an endless cycle. Your understanding of Water, Fire, and Grass attributes has risen. When using Water, Fire, and Grass-type Pokémon, the power of their STAB moves will increase by 20%; perhaps you will therefore get a response from the Water, Fire, and Grass energy in the natural world.】

Of course, when they were chatting with Xiang Guangtai, other waiters in the Gym were not idle.

Delicious breakfast dishes were soon served, and the aroma was enticing!

"Striaton Stamina Cake Roll!"

"Diglett Sandwich!"

"Simple White Sauce Soup! Hmm, the taste of fresh milk is very full!"

"Chikorita Roasted Bread Snack!"

Fennel looked at the dishes served with shining eyes, unable to suppress her appetite!

Musharna: "Sister, you are not ladylike at all."

Fennel: "Ladies are dead in the morning."

"The wild flavor is indeed suitable for fire-type curry!"

"No, the angry waves can better reflect its characteristics; cold whirlpool salad is the representative."

"The fusion of water and fire, the delicious taste, is most suitable for soup!"

After obtaining authorization, the three brothers started arguing about the content of the new dish they were developing!

Xiang Guangtai's gaze moved to the development kitchen.

Eh? The people cooking are not just chefs, but also Watchog?

"Pokémon cooking..."

Chili: "Ah! Did you notice! This is also a feature of our Striaton restaurant!"

Watchog likes sweets, and making desserts is indeed something they are good at.

Of course, Watchog also often participates in fire fighting and vigilance work in Unova.

Out of curiosity, Xiang Guangtai came to the open kitchen to observe. The Watchog felt Xiang Guangtai's curious emotions, which made them blink their eyes curiously.

Eh? A human who can communicate with us?

Feeling that Xiang Guangtai's meaning was to see them make meals, the Watchog were full of enthusiasm!

Roar roar! It turns out it was for our craftsmanship, then you just watch!

【Acquired Knowledge: Watchog Meal Knowledge!】

【Description: Not meals made by humans, but Pokémon's culinary skills; both humans and Pokémon can eat them happily, and the taste is excellent; it is a very powerful meal production technique!】

【Produceable Meals: Striaton Stamina Cake Roll, Chikorita Roasted Bread Snack, Wishing Apple Pie, Jigglypuff Parfait Pudding, Breaking Corn Tiramisu, Sweet Scent Chocolate Cake...】

【Through special food craft techniques, the desserts produced can have different buff effects.】

"Eh? Very interesting."

Although there are differences in the tastes of humans and Pokémon for some foods, most of the recipe content is the same.

"Dore~"

The Poké Ball opened automatically, and Lilligant appeared on its own, tilting its head curiously to watch the Watchog's work.

In the past, when in the Divine Capital, it was responsible for boiling flower soup and berry juice.

But if it comes to important edible food, most of it was made by Xiang Guangtai.

Cress: "Are you curious about food production?"

Xiang Guangtai: "Ah... although I don't have a professional breeder's certificate, I also make some food beneficial to Pokémon, but I haven't made it since I came to Unova."

Cilan was pleasantly surprised: "Why not try it here? I can be the food taster!"

His thoughts were written on his face!

Although it is unlikely that most artists will cook, and they will even be very poor, and Xiang Guangtai... this young genius artist seems to have other strengths!

"Try it... but my food is very powerful; after eating it, it might appear..."

"No, then let's try it."

Xiang Guangtai looked at Lilligant.

It's just right to learn these Unova-style meal production techniques; it won't take much time.

【Entralink Mission: Complete the meal production of the Striaton restaurant.】

【Description: Eating is the life that gains everything; this statement is also recorded in the Abyssal Ruins. Complete the meal production of the Striaton restaurant; if it is widely praised, it will become a popular meal! Eating makes people happy!】

【Rewards: Release Orb ×3, Special Ingredients ×5 each, Special Title ×1, Jin Huang Acorn ×30, Enchanting Poké Puff Production Method.】

Enchanting Poké Puff?

Is it different from a normal Poké Puff?

"There are special ingredients? Not bad."

Because there is help from Pokémon, the production of meals is very fast, and Xiang Guangtai almost forgot that he has a special knowledge of the passage of time, which can greatly shorten the production time of some items.

It's not that it can only be used for brewing wine!

And speaking of which, the ingredients he brought out from the Divine Capital are really not many.

It's mainly because the backpack really can't hold so many things.

Speaking of which, there are still two sticky mushrooms, because he was worried about whether the mycelium would affect the turtle, so he didn't transplant them to the turtle's back.

Although the turtle itself likes this kind of monster mushroom very much.

However, now with the blessing of the White Forest, there should be no problem... probably?

With the Entralink device, you can take items from the Entralink world at any time, just like a portable warehouse, so you can buy some berry planting pots or mushroom culture dishes.

Lilligant learned very seriously, and those Watchog masters also gave guidance without reservation.

Although every restaurant has unique meal secrets, in fact, if you don't have that talent, even if you are told everything, you can't complete the production.

But Pokémon don't have so many thoughts.

And the cake of the Striaton restaurant is special, adding some special ingredients, which is why it is called a stamina cake roll, because people and Pokémon who eat it can quickly recover some energy.

"I also have special berries."

Starf Berry powder is carried on his person, but Xiang Guangtai thought about it slightly and felt that there was no need to add such powerful berry powder for ordinary meal production.

This strength is too great.

He picked out some usable berries in the berry box of the Striaton restaurant.

From the star rating, it is a silver star, which is enough.

The Unova region obviously cannot grow berries in the game, but in fact, the quality of berries sold here is quite high.

Quite a few high-quality berries were also bought in Castelia City.

Xiang Guangtai and Lilligant worked in an orderly manner, but in the eyes of the three Cilan brothers, it was completely different.

"Quite skilled... I haven't seen those berry combinations..."

"What kind of taste will it be... used very rare ingredients."

Cake roll is a pastry name, the main ingredients are flour, eggs, cream, milk, etc., auxiliary ingredients are sugar, white vinegar, etc.

But Xiang Guangtai didn't intend to replicate a Striaton cake roll, but to make a brand new cake-type meal.

The three brothers were right, let Walking Wake make a name for itself on the land of Unova, starting with food!

Compared to art, food has a faster and wider spread!

Of course, in order to complete this important meal, Xiang Guangtai took out his collection.

Dragon Fang.

Not only a holy relic, a battle item, but also a very unique ingredient. Thanks to Lance, Xiang Guangtai got several Dragon Fangs, and just scraping off some powder was enough.

In the dream, he made fierce dragon food, and now replicating it is just right.

Preheat the oven and start baking!

The baked cake is sweet, soft, moist, and delicious!

Ding—

"Hmm, the electric oven is glowing?" The three brothers looked at the flash when the electric oven opened in disbelief.

Baked cake...

Xiang Guangtai thought, after buying a high-quality oven appliance, he could let Rotom come out to help anytime, anywhere.

The electric oven form is really convenient!

Next, squeeze beautiful cream on the baked cake and decorate it appropriately.

Xiang Guangtai and Lilligant quickly completed the cream squeezing work, and didn't forget to use the sliced berries as "dragon teeth" to decorate the cake at the end.

【Food: Dragon Fang Cream Cake (Unique Dish--Pending Official Naming)!】

【Description: A special baked cake made with Dragon Fang powder, Pecha Berry, Rawst Berry, Chesto Berry, Aspear Berry, and Aromatic Mushroom. After being filled with cream, it has an incredible deliciousness and aroma, which can attract Pokémon of all attributes.】

【Effect: Has the highest attraction for Dragon-type and Water-type Pokémon; the aroma emitted is irresistible to both humans and Pokémon, will increase growth and strength, and can significantly increase gorgeousness, happiness, and joy. Occasionally changes the style of some people or Pokémon.】

【If brilliant vegetables are added, it will be promoted to a brilliant dish.】

【Food Power: Capture Power (Water LV2); Title Power (Dragon LV1); Encounter Power (Dragon LV1).】

【Cooking Craft Buff: Life LV3—can obtain a large amount of life energy, has a powerful recovery effect for sick, weak, and injured Pokémon, can boost spirit, and the enhancement of vitality can eliminate many physical hidden dangers and improve physical health and strength.】

【Hisui Lilligant completed a task and gained experience and growth.】

【Acquired Knowledge: Beautiful Food Specialization—can stimulate the taste and power of berries; participating in food production will make food more delicious and can improve the gorgeousness and control of various moves.】

【Produceable Items (Food): Craft Sugar Decoration; Dynamax Candy; Heart Dessert; Lumiose Galette; Santalune Sable.】

Food that improves the gorgeousness of various moves... It should be quite good to sell to trainers of Pokémon Contests.

"So fast! What happened just now?"

"The freshly baked cake was decorated all of a sudden; I just lowered my head for a moment."

After Xiang Guangtai's work was completed, many people had gathered around unknowingly.

Not only the three brothers, Fennel, and Musharna, but also some guests who came to the restaurant for breakfast in the morning.

Even the Watchog masters who were making desserts.

They sniffed their noses and gathered around with longing, drool hanging from the corners of their mouths.

Master, what kind of work do you do...

Cilan's expression became quite wonderful; it was the look of seeing a peerless delicacy. Cilan has unique insights into baking, and the macaron cookies he made in the theatrical version were praised by Victini.

"This is a meal that has never been launched by this restaurant; what kind of power it possesses, please introduce it yourself by the producer!"

"And, what is the name of this meal?"

Cilan looked at Xiang Guangtai expectantly, and the three brothers began to comment on this cream cake, and they were also very curious about the use of those berries, while Xiang Guangtai thought carefully.

"Walking Wake Dragon Fang Cake."

"Because Dragon Fang powder is really added to this cake, in the Alola region, Dragon Fang is regarded as a dream ingredient."

Naming specialty foods after Pokémon is a common naming method for various foods in the Pokémon world.

Adding Walking Wake's name to the cake is a bit awkward, but if Dragon Fang follows, it's slightly smoother.

Although it is still a bit awkward.

But as long as it becomes a legendary dish, then the awkwardness will become a "feature"!

The berries chosen are all closely related to Water and Dragon attributes. By fusing the nutrition of these fruits through special craftsmanship, if you add Oran Berry or Shuckle Berry Juice, you can make a cake version of Rare Candy.

The Cilan trio recorded this phantom cake completely, and after obtaining Xiang Guangtai's consent, they divided the cake into small portions.

Cress adjusted his tie, gently supported the edge of the crystal plate with his fingertips, leaned over, and closed his eyes to sniff lightly.

As the owners of the restaurant, they have to taste it first to confirm that there is no problem before perhaps serving it to the guests; in fact, this was not in Cilan's plan at all.

The cake entered their mouths, and the expressions of the three brothers were surprisingly consistent; first, they were stunned, as if struck by an electric current, and then powerful life force erupted in their bodies one after another!

"Oh oh oh oh! What is this! Delicious! And power, it's pouring out!"

The change in fire-type Chili was very obvious; he felt that a large amount of energy had appeared in his body, and he couldn't wait to do something, even becoming restless because of it.

Cilan's hands were trembling; that was not shock, but an unnatural impulse. The vigorous life force made Cilan feel that he had never been so energetic in his life!

As for water-type Cress, I don't know if it's because he is particularly compatible with water Pokémon; Cress originally gave people the feeling of a refreshing blue-series male lead, but now he has completely turned into a blue-haired prince, and his entire art style has changed, causing collective screams from female fans in the restaurant!

"Can this thing also change a person's art style... so that's what changing style means."

Jumping from Pokémon art style to girl manga!

"The initial note is the amber roasted aroma of caramelized Pecha Berry, the middle note is the salty mist of Chesto Berry, followed by the honey pulp of Aspear Berry, the minty coolness of Rawst Berry, the sweet and sour of Oran Berry, and the fragrance of Aromatic Mushroom... different tastes mixed together to produce powerful power, that is an incredible taste that can make people happy and joyful!"

"Simply a dream-like cake."

"Delicious!" Fennel had already been unable to wait, and after tasting a bite, she gave her highest evaluation!

When a science girl comments, she only says the simplest and most straightforward praise, unlike the three brothers who use various vocabularies to describe it, but for a delicacy...

"Thank you, delicious is the highest evaluation."

Xiang Guangtai smiled: "However, my food is more suitable for Pokémon than humans. The life force contained in the berries will make Pokémon grow stronger, and can heal sick and weak Pokémon."

"That's nothing strange, many regional specialties have such power."

【Mission Complete!】

【Rewards: Release Orb ×3, Special Ingredients ×5 each, Jin Huang Acorn ×30, Enchanting Poké Puff Production Method.】

【Your food has been recognized by the public, the name of the ancient dragon has been remembered by people, and the Entree has also felt a new will; people's happiness, joy, gratitude, these vortex-like emotions and dreams have been transmitted to the Entralink world!】

【Striaton restaurant is a very famous restaurant in Unova; with their recommendation, your reputation will go to the next level! Food craft is also a type of art!】

【Jin Huang Acorn: A special acorn, a food that Pokémon love to eat. It looks not much different from the fruits on the backs of Grotle and Torterra, but the color is dazzling gold. It has the effect of recovering emotions, increasing movement speed, and inviting Pokémon to become friends. Handing the Jin Huang Acorn to wild Pokémon can make them friends and get help from wild Pokémon.】

【Special Ingredients: Spicy Herb, Diamond Salt, Unova Raspberry, Jin Huang Syrup, Spiral Corn.】

"Ah, corn, huh. That's right, how can there be no corn in the Unova region."

Xiang Guangtai nodded secretly.

This is comfortable.

【Extra: Spice Combination.】

【Enchanting Poké Puff: A special Poké Puff with enchanting power, emitting a strange aroma, which can attract wild Pokémon, significantly increase the friendliness and intimacy of a Pokémon, and at the same time reduce the opponent's aggressiveness and negative emotions.】

"Lilligant, this is for you."

Lilligant blinked, ignoring the eager and appreciative eyes around it, and curiously and joyfully held the golden acorn handed over by Xiang Guangtai in its palm.

Just holding it in the palm of its hand gave it a warm feeling, and it felt like it could be used to make very delicious food.

Also, the feeling the trainer gave it had changed slightly?

Hmm, it's a change that is pleasant and happy, and even makes it like him more!
