Why did you come here all of a sudden?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard Teacher Luo Mu returned to Paldea after your vacation, so I came to ask you something.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo glanced shyly at Luo Mu; it was clear she had some secret trouble that led her to seek him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu figured answering a question wouldn’t hurt. “Alright, go ahead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smile instantly spread across Nimo’s face. The girl was in her growth spurt, radiating boundless energy—hard to believe she was a complete sports idiot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo first pulled out a Poké Ball and released a Pachirisu whose size and appearance had clearly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu raised an eyebrow: “Is this Pachirisu evolved?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo nodded: “Hehe, just evolved a few days ago.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Riolu strolled slowly to Luo Mu’s side, lowering its head to gaze at the small Pachirisu brimming with fighting spirit, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The biggest change after Pachirisu’s evolution was gaining a Fighting-type attribute, along with significant boosts in attack and speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as it left its Poké Ball, Pachirisu scanned the surroundings, as if searching for its former rival, Carkol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little thing had a strong competitive streak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu smiled knowingly at Nimo: “From its appearance alone, you can see Pachirisu’s arm strength has greatly increased. You’ve been training hard, haven’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, we’ve been looking forward to the spring break in a month—we plan to travel and challenge Gyms!” Nimo nodded firmly, then remembered she’d strayed off-topic. “Even though your class doesn’t start until the day after tomorrow, I just couldn’t sit still—I had to come ask you something.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want to catch a new partner, but I don’t know how to do it properly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo looked troubled; she’d secretly tried catching Pokémon several times, but always failed because she couldn’t throw the Poké Ball accurately, causing wild Pokémon to flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although her family had prepared an Egg for her, Nimo felt her second Pokémon had to be caught by her own hand to mean something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh…” Luo Mu’s expression turned odd. He remembered Nimo was notoriously bad at throwing Poké Balls. “You mean… you want me to take you out to catch a Pokémon?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo froze, then nodded vigorously, gazing at Luo Mu with hopeful eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu rubbed his chin, then said cheerfully: “I’m heading out into the wild anyway—if I spot a suitable Pokémon, I’ll let you catch it. Want to come along?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the wild, after gathering a few Pokémon, Luo Mu set off with Nimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His backpack now held not only his usual outdoor gear, but also some Pokémon food and empty glass bottles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he found a Trumbeak nest, he’d trade Pokémon food for honey—he believed a nurturing Queen Bee would gladly make the deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the wilderness destination was just outside his farm, Luo Mu didn’t bring his full team. Besides Carkol and Pancham, he only brought Riolu, who happened to be nearby and served as guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, bringing along Nimo—a student and the second daughter of a wealthy family—called for caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo kept Pachirisu close by; if she spotted a Pokémon she liked, she’d have an easier time battling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Pachirisu’s attention was clearly fixed on Carkol, strutting ahead with its little followers like a spoiled nobleman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carkol, however, had no time for it. As a Fire-type, Carkol constantly radiated warm heat, and Pancham was a constant shadow—Luo Mu often saw Pancham trotting behind Carkol on the farm, doing whatever Carkol commanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Luo Mu walked, he observed his Pokémon. When he glanced at Pancham, he wondered: “Its color seems different from when I first brought it to the farm—it looks like a white, plump loaf of bread baked to golden brown.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usually, if Pancham showed this sign, evolution was near—its evolved form, Pangoro, had this exact brown hue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After about half an hour of walking, just like when he’d gone out with Pajama, Luo Mu and Nimo entered the grasslands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu’s main goal was still to find Trumbeak, but he planned to let Nimo catch any suitable Pokémon they encountered along the way—he’d spotted several Trumbeak here before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu reminded Nimo: “If you see a Pokémon that looks like a beehole with three faces and a pair of wings, tell me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo nodded seriously: “Understood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two began exploring the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After another ten minutes, Pachirisu, dashing through the grass, seemed to spot something and made a sound toward a patch of tall grass, alerting Nimo and Luo Mu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Pachirisu’s warning, Carkol and Pancham also turned toward the grass, sniffing the air. They clearly detected the scent of an unfamiliar Pokémon and began barking loudly: “Woof! Woof! Woof!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Luo Mu and Nimo looked up at the grass, the Pokémon inside stirred—a sharp, melodious cry rang out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, a red Bug-type Pokémon with a pair of mustache-like whiskers appeared before them: a Trumbeak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu’s heart jolted: !!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>DNA stirred!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this Trumbeak’s eyes weren’t glowing with eerie red light—otherwise, Luo Mu would’ve turned and run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before his transmigration, as a rookie, he’d once been chased through the vast Sinnoh wilderness by a Headliner Trumbeak that let out piercing cries—he’d nearly fainted from fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this was just an ordinary Trumbeak, radiating strong hostility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had apparently been resting, which explained the quiet surroundings. Luo Mu, Nimo, and their Pokémon had undoubtedly disturbed it—and now they were its targets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu had planned to send out Carkol, but Nimo looked at him with hopeful eyes and pleaded: “Teacher Luo Mu, let me battle it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Luo Mu lowered his hand and sighed: “You want to catch it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimo shook her head: “I’ll decide after the battle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1020,"2026-06-20T17:11:47.132Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","0e72acb65cbcbf2b094d1f3cec1dd13e771b469bbafc71cd677b57dcd3ef8243","pokemon-the-reemployment-of-a-paldea-former-cham-chapter-106","pokemon-the-reemployment-of-a-paldea-former-cham-chapter-104",695,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpokemon-the-reemployment-of-a-paldea-former-cham-cover.jpg"]
