I’m sorry — if you’ve called about leasing the storefront, I have to tell you it was just taken by a company.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah?\" Kaede felt as if a stone dropped into his chest. \"What about the Alcremie? The Alcremie inside?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They weren’t for sale. I’m planning to take them back to Hoenn... Wait — you want the Alcremie?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaede breathed out in relief. \"Yes — yes, I want the Alcremie. I don’t need the shop.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a short silence, then the woman seemed to relax. \"Okay, understood. I have thirteen Alcremie here. How many do you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thirteen?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaede’s eyes brightened. \"Can I take them all?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All of them? I’m a bit worried — can you tell me your address? We should meet in person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaede gave her the address at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Neighbor Breeding House in Aogiri Town, right? Once the rain stops I’ll bring them over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She left those final words and hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wahoo~!\" Kaede cheered in place. The Alolan Vulpix in his lap startled, bumped the cup, and splashed juice down his thigh with a cool, wet shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaede: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vulpix: \"Vulpix!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Σ(っ °Д °;)っ —\"I didn’t mean to — Trainer!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the rain, the woman arrived sooner than he expected. Half an hour after the shower ended, a small car pulled up in front of the Breeding House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young woman in a white coat — about twenty-six or twenty-seven — stepped out. She smoothed her coat and looked at the Breeding House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her name was Koli. She wasn’t from this region — she was from Kanto, and a few years ago she’d moved here with her grandfather to care for him while he was ill. Recently, though, her grandfather had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his passing, she’d lost much of her reason to stay here. What she worried about most was the Alcremie she’d raised — shipping delicate Pokémon across the sea posed a real risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d tried for days to find good homes online and had managed to rehome seven or eight Alcremie. Most prospective buyers only wanted their cream for a short time, which made Koli uneasy. She needed someone who would truly care for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirteen remained. She was about to grit her teeth and bring them back to Hoenn herself when Kaede’s call had come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before coming, Koli had looked the Breeding House up online. She’d found the Breeding Network account and, after watching the videos, was even more surprised. A small, quiet Breeding House tucked away on the edge of town held such rare Pokémon: the Milotic that danced in the water, a powerful Psychic Gardevoir, and a Servine whose Grassy Terrain reached so wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t seen a single bad comment under the videos — only praise for value and for how beautiful the Pokémon looked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the car pull off, Kaede hurried out of the Breeding House, \"Hello~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Koli paused. \"You’re the owner?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy looked barely eighteen, yet had the Breeding House running so neatly. She was impressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please come in — let’s talk.\" Kaede said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Koli stepped inside and, at the doorway, her eyes immediately took in the floating energy blocks sorted by type — each placed neatly on the counters. In the middle of them a Gardevoir hovered, using Telekinesis to arrange the blocks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though she’d seen it on the Breeding Network, Koli still felt surprised. The precise psychic control showed this Gardevoir was powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaede guided her into the living area. \"You really are as young as your videos make you out to be!\" Koli remarked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh?\" Kaede blinked and laughed. \"Would you like something to drink? Juice or fresh milk? I recommend the juice — it’s sweet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Juice, please.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaede took a sealed cup of Bounsweet-brand juice from the fridge and handed it over. Koli intended only a sip, but the juice did something unexpected: it eased the tightness she’d been carrying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since childhood she’d been raised by her grandfather, and his recent death had left her sleepless and grief-struck. But the juice — lightly sweetened Bounsweet juice — lifted her mood a touch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This juice is amazing,\" she said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaede smiled. \"Food made by Pokémon often heals the heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d noticed the sorrow on her brow the moment she’d walked in, which was why he’d offered the juice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then a small figure padded out of the kitchen — Bounsweet, its white fruit flesh visible beneath green leaves. It trotted over on tiny feet, slowed when it saw Koli, and called in a careful tone, \"Bounsweet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bounsweet~\" (I finished bathing. I want to find Brionne.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go on, go on.\" Kaede waved it off and warned, \"Don’t fall into the reservoir, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bounsweet~!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Koli blinked at that sight, then smiled. \"So this is Bounsweet juice?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. I love cooking, so I keep food-producing Pokémon. I’ll take good care of them,\" Kaede said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Koli nodded — she’d seen the Miltank milking outside and sensed Kaede did make good use of the Alcremie’s cream. The worry left her face, replaced by a relieved smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took the Poké Ball pouch from her waist and began taking out the balls one by one. \"These are their Poké Balls. I haven’t had them long; they’re all lovely kids. If you take them in, could you film them and post the videos on the Breeding Network? That way, when I miss them later, I can see them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",932,"2026-05-30T11:00:43.169Z","2026-06-01T04:31:04.028Z",1,"novelbin.me","2a50a839501da2c93415b041dbc036509584bd6609f7845b0c23079641a51256","pokemon-making-pokemon-stronger-through-happines-chapter-79","pokemon-making-pokemon-stronger-through-happines-chapter-77",473,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpokemon-making-pokemon-stronger-through-happines-cover.jpg"]
