Chapter 791: Ms. Wicke

~14 min read 2,610 words

"Goo——"

"Ma-goo——"

A large and a small pink toy bear hugged, rubbing against each other affectionately.

The warm scene of parent and child reunion made Burnet smile, "Wicke will definitely be happy when she sees it."

All Baimu nodded in agreement.

Although Wicke is a member of the Aether Foundation, she belongs to the good camp in both games and animation.

This is also the main reason why he dared to come directly to find her.

"Since you found it, hurry up and take your Pokémon out! Don't continue to interfere with our work here!"

Faba snorted coldly.

It's just that Hydreigon's eyes staring at him became more and more fierce, making this guy who is fierce on the outside but weak on the inside dare not say anything more, and turned away sullenly.

All Baimu couldn't be bothered to pay attention, anyway, it's a guy who will be unlucky sooner or later.

Besides, compared to physical pain, career failure is Faba's lifeline, so those threatening words just now were so effective.

Burnet apologized: "Sorry sorry, Wicke is not here. I am Burnet, helping to manage Aether Paradise."

"Dr. Burnet?"

All Baimu showed a polite smile.

The person who came was Professor Kukui's future wife, Dr. Burnet, who is responsible for researching Ultra Wormholes in the animation.

Wicke is not here?

No wonder he couldn't call her out after calling for a long time, and talked a lot of nonsense with that guy Faba.

Burnet was surprised: "You know me?"

"Of course, you must be the winner of this year's Alola Influential Woman Award, how could I not know such a person?" He nodded and said.

Burnet laughed, "Not as amazing as you said."

She looked at Bewear, who kept tilting its head and looking inside, and asked: "Is this Stufful's mother?"

"That's right."

All Baimu nodded.

"Hmm... shall we talk while walking?" Burnet pondered slightly, it could be seen that she had many things she wanted to ask, but talking about everything in the dock seemed impolite.

And she could see that Bewear was very urgent.

All Baimu had no objection.

The two took the elevator to the first floor.

Burnet asked: "Is this gentleman a Trainer?"

"That's right, my name is All Baimu, I just came to the Alola region recently, preparing to enjoy the local customs and practices here."

He said with a smile.

Burnet realized and smiled: "Alola is a good place, you will definitely not be disappointed."

All Baimu: "I think so too."

Ding!

The elevator came to the first floor.

Faba, wearing emerald green fly-like glasses, came into his eyes, looking stinky and very difficult to get along with, opening his mouth to question: "How did you know Stufful was here? Did you sneak in before?"

"Slander is illegal, Director Faba, I personally suggest you have a better attitude, otherwise if I'm unhappy, I'll take a picture of you and post it online, declaring the bad attitude of the Aether Foundation staff, what will you do?"

All Baimu took a picture of him blatantly.

Most villains in the animation are very pure, bad is bad, and it's impossible to do any good deeds before being washed white.

Therefore, he was made difficult by Faba after saying a few wrong words.

But.

There are also ways to cure evil people in the world.

All Baimu, who came from Orre, happened to be very good at curing evil people, whether it was talking nonsense or directly threatening people.

"You!?"

Faba's face turned blue and white.

Burnet was quite surprised.

She didn't expect this young man who looked gentle and kind to be so capable of choking people.

At the same time.

Bewear smelled the scent of its cub, and unable to hold back anymore, it rushed to the ecological park, and met Stufful, who also smelled its scent and came over out of curiosity, head-on.

Mother and child (daughter) reunited.

The game's Pokédex entry describes the species: there are three Type: Null in total, but only one appeared in the anime; perhaps I can see the other two in the underground laboratory area?

All Baimu was still quite interested in this Pokémon known as the "Little Arceus."

A few minutes passed.

Wearing butterfly-like round-rimmed glasses, with a white tight-fitting skirt accentuating her plump figure, a gentle and intellectual purple-haired woman hurried over.

"Stufful!"

She saw Bewear, who was constantly hugging Stufful, at a glance. The intimate actions of the two Pokémon and the thick, deep affection radiating from them brought tears to her eyes: "That's great, Stufful, it really is Mom, Mom has come to pick you up~"

"Mago!"

Stufful waved happily.

Bewear also let out a cry of affirmation toward Faba.

Although Faba's subsequent measures were the main reason they had been separated for so long, Bewear would not dwell on those meaningless things.

For one, they had already reunited, and for another, Faba had indeed acted with good intentions in saving Stufful.

These two points were more important than anything else.

Faba wiped the corners of her eyes, looked at All Baimu standing beside Burnet, and smiled gently: "Sir, you must be Bewear's Trainer, right?"

"No, I'm its friend."

All Baimu shook his head.

This sentence made her and Burnet pause.

Burnet asked in surprise, "Isn't Bewear your Pokémon?"

"Of course not, it has always lived in the forest on Melemele Island, and I only arrived in the Alola region a few days ago." All Baimu reached out and stroked Bewear's back.

Bewear and Stufful turned their heads to look at him; the former's expression remained unchanged, while the latter let out a loud cry and jumped onto the top of his head.

"Mago!"

"Yeah, yeah."

All Baimu responded casually.

Although he really wanted to pet Stufful, this little guy's trigger point was that it only allowed itself to touch people, not people to touch it; it extremely hated being hugged or touched by unfamiliar existences and would even go berserk because of it.

Faba asked, "Then how did you... know Stufful was here?"

"I have psychic powers."

All Baimu wore an expression of "I was born with divine power," completely ignoring the blood-red eyes of the Hydreigon beside him widening.

Faba and Burnet subconsciously looked at each other.

Psychic... powers?

This answer was a bit absurd.

They really wanted to get to the bottom of it, but felt that pressing further would be somewhat impolite.

They could only think of it that way.

"Hehehehe, Mr. All Baimu is truly a person of extraordinary talents." Faba covered her mouth and forced a compliment, and Burnet's eye also twitched.

All Baimu shrugged.

He did have psychic powers—the Heart of God could also be considered a psychic power, though it was somewhat different from conventional psychic powers.

The dock.

The moment of parting.

Faba was teary-eyed, watching Stufful wave gently, "You must take care, live well with Mom, Stufful~"

"Mago~"

Stufful waved along; it didn't think this was any kind of life-and-death separation. As long as it could find the way, coming to Aether Paradise next time was just a matter of time.

All Baimu also knew very well that this guy was no less capable than its mother; have you heard of someone dismantling a helicopter's propeller and manually rubbing it into the sky?

It had done it.

"Then, goodbye to you both!"

All Baimu started the engine and departed, carrying Bewear, Stufful, and Hydreigon.

Stufful looked back at Aether Paradise, its dark, round eyes filled with an indescribable meaning.

After all, it was a place where it had stayed for a long time.

Bewear patted its head, "Goo-goo-goo~"

"Mago!"

Stufful rubbed against its mother's palm, then suddenly jumped onto All Baimu's head, occupying this supreme throne.

Hydreigon wrinkled its nose and turned its head to look at Bewear, who remained unmoved.

And Bewear, feeling the gaze, also looked over.

"Goo-goo-goo?"

"Sha-sang!"

Hydreigon arrogantly turned its head away; it wouldn't lower itself to the level of a little shrimp like Stufful.

——

Returning to the forest.

The Team Rocket trio was still nowhere to be seen.

Bewear's expression darkened, but its attention quickly shifted to All Baimu, who was about to leave.

"Goo-goo-goo!"

Porygon2 translated: "Bewear wants you to stay and eat together."

"... That's fine, I don't have anything to do anyway." He checked the time on his phone; the process of finding Stufful had gone very smoothly, and Faba's little schemes didn't even count as a subplot.

The main thing was that the travel took time; the distance from Melemele Island to Aether Paradise was not short.

Hydreigon appeared very reluctant, "Sha-sang~"

It rarely openly rejected its Trainer interacting with wild Pokémon; it was really just that Bewear's previous move of snatching people away had stung it.

"Relax, don't be so stingy, you're a dragon after all."

All Baimu patted its head, while inwardly muttering that an evil dragon is still a dragon.

Hydreigon grunted twice.

At the same time.

Bewear grabbed Stufful, who was running left and right, missing the home environment and leaving its own scent, and placed it on his head: "Goo-goo-goo."

Porygon2: "It says it's going to call back the runaway child, you help it keep an eye on Stufful."

Are you sure it's calling?

All Baimu felt that using the word "catch" would be more appropriate. Seeing Bewear leave, he looked up at Stufful, who was looking down. After their eyes met, he said, "Can I pet you?"

"Mago?"

"If you're willing, just reach out."

Stufful obediently extended its toy-like bear paw.

All Baimu slowly raised his right hand, made a fist, and bumped it against the paw pad in the middle; the force was a bit heavy—it was worthy of being a Pokémon that could forcefully pull off a helicopter propeller.

He half-squatted to let Stufful get down from his head: "It's fine, go play."

Stufful refused to get down.

"Mago!"

It shook its bear paw excitedly and urged All Baimu to walk around by pulling his hair.

It hadn't been back to the tree hollow for a long time, and it felt that this place had become both familiar and strange.

What is that long thing?

All Baimu, fearing he would become bald, obediently walked toward the metal ladder leading to the second floor of the tree hollow and arrived at Team Rocket's secret base.

Don't say.

It was quite spacious.

"Mago?"

Stufful jumped off his head and walked around curiously.

All Baimu looked at the platform wall half a story high, which was stuffed with various large volumes, "There are actually books? They must be James's!"

In his impression, the only one who would read books was indeed James.

Following that, he saw an object suspected to be a Z-Crystal searcher on the workbench in the corner; two antennas were inserted into a square box similar to a remote control for a toy car, and the appearance had a flavor of the eighties or nineties.

"It's already done?"

All Baimu only saw that there were many wires still exposed behind the machine when he picked it up, so he hurriedly put it down.

Finally.

He looked at the huge multi-screen computer and deliberated for a few seconds: "Porygon2, you go in and check their data?"

"Okay."

Porygon2 responded, not even giving him a chance to regret it, and flashed into the computer like lightning.

The computer turned on.

Team Rocket's logo appeared, followed by code data on a black background.

Porygon2 soon popped its head out.

"Nothing of value, it's all logs of them modifying machines, as well as reviews of failed operations, etc. I wanted to find Team Rocket's internal intelligence data, but didn't find any."

"How could they possibly have internal intelligence data in their hands..."

All Baimu, who had expected this but was unwilling to give up, sighed slightly.

If it were the Team Rocket trio from *Best Wishes*, there might really be something he wanted in the computer. *Sun & Moon*? How could comedic villains put valuable intelligence in a computer.

Giovanni sent them to the Alola region to catch local Pokémon, but they only caught two, and were even captured by Pokémon in turn.

*Boom! *

A sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from outside.

Stufful immediately jumped down from the passage, "Mago!"

All Baimu followed behind it, his gaze passing through the dark tree hollow and falling onto the clearing outside; Bewear was holding the disheveled Team Rocket trio, and the food cart had fallen to the side.

"Alola! How is business today?"

He asked with a smile.

Meowth responded powerlessly: "Not good at all... why are you here again, Meowth!"

Its expression had evolved from the fear of first seeing All Baimu to the habit of today; the so-called distance makes the heart grow fonder, and the Team Rocket trio gradually realized that All Baimu was not an unreasonable person.

At least much more reasonable than Bewear.

James said: "The machine to search for Z-Crystals still needs one more day, it can only be delivered tomorrow."

"Hmm, take your time."

All Baimu's gaze shifted to Jessie, who was walking toward the tree hollow in a grand manner.

As expected.

She, or rather her hair, was entangled by Stufful; in the original plot, Stufful was very fond of her flowing rose-red hair, and now it was even more "love at first sight."

"Where did you come from!?"

Jessie was startled.

All Baimu explained: "This is Bewear's child that has been separated for many days; I helped it find it back today."

The Team Rocket trio widened their eyes, "Mom?"

"Really?"

"Can't you tell from the color scheme? Pink, white, and black; it's a very obvious evolutionary relationship." He pointed at Bewear, then pointed at Stufful, who was swinging on the end of Jessie's hair.

James and Meowth nodded upon seeing this, "Now that you mention it, indeed."

"Indeed, Meowth."

"Wobbuffet!"

Wobbuffet, who didn't know where it popped out from, responded.

Jessie went crazy: "Take it down quickly! My star hair!"

Aspiring to be a movie star, she had always guarded her hair with her life, to the point that after Seviper hurt her hair, she gave it a fierce beating.

Scenes of humans beating up Pokémon are not common.

"Let it hug you for a while, it won't hurt your hair, don't pull hard, it's easy to pull the scalp off." All Baimu kindly reminded her.

At the same time, he felt a bit of *schadenfreude*.

Jessie couldn't accept it and was about to go crazy.

Dinner.

Bewear treated All Baimu and Hydreigon with its "craftsmanship"; the latter wanted to intervene in the chef's work but was stopped by Bewear.

"Eating honey plain is also fine."

All Baimu poked the unhappy Hydreigon.

It originally didn't want to eat and wanted to return to its Poké Ball, but was forcibly stopped by its Trainer on the grounds of giving Bewear face.

"Sha-sang."

Hydreigon's expression was listless.

The kind Mareanie sent it some berries; this Pokémon that fell in love with James after being poisoned was as gentle as it was.

In the plot, it was also the one that later learned Bewear's feeding method, feeding Stufful and Mimikyu honey.

Hydreigon lowered its head and looked.

No.

It used its tail to push the berries back to Mareanie.

Mareanie, having asked for trouble, wasn't angry either and gave the berries to Mimikyu, who was uninhibited and ate everything; the strange eating method of wrapping the berries under the cloth made All Baimu particularly curious.

Of course, he wasn't as suicidal as Meowth, repeatedly trying to see Mimikyu's true form.
