"Bulbasaur, it's up to you now."
Fang Gu patted Bulbasaur's forehead; the latter was already quite adept at the next steps.
A radiant light, imbued with the essence of life, emanated from Bulbasaur and then poured into the small mound of earth in front of it.
In an instant, the strawberry sprouts couldn't wait to emerge from the soil.
"Kira!" [Bulbasaur! That's amazing!]
Bulbasaur's grin widened; little Jirachi certainly has good taste!
But just as Bulbasaur turned its head, its expression froze. The exhausted Jirachi was now lying on Fang Gu's head.
That's a spot that even it has never lain in!
No hehe!
Bulbasaur was secretly drawing circles on the ground with its vines.
Jirachi's previous depression and sadness had completely disappeared. It lay on Fang Gu's head, gently waving its little paws.
'Kira Kira!' [So it's possible to grant wishes without using power! I understand! I'll help everyone fulfill their wishes!]
Seeing Jirachi regain his confidence, Fang Gu smiled with satisfaction.
"Let's go then, let's start with Riolu."
Fang Gu had already chosen his candidate; the next step was to help Jirachi boost his confidence.
"Kira!" [Let's go! Let's go!]
Jirachi waved its little fists and giggled.
Only Bulbasaur remained, still imagining what Fang Gu would look like with Bulbasaur on his head.
…………
"Huh?" [You're asking me what my wish is?]
Riolu relaxed his starting stance, pointed to himself, and then shook his head.
"Aww!" [I will fulfill my own wishes!! Thank you for your kindness.]
Riolu clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
Jirachi looked to Fang Gu for help, his eyes brimming with tears.
What am I going to do?
Fang Gu cleared his throat and introduced Riolu: "Riolu, don't let Jirachi's small size fool you, it's actually a powerful Pokémon with Steel and Psychic attributes."
"You should know that Lucario is also a Steel-type Pokémon."
"Jirachi has a very powerful Steel-type move called Comet Punch. I remember reading in some book that Riolu could also learn this move..."
Before Fang Gu could finish speaking, Riolu's eyes lit up instantly, and he bowed deeply to Jirachi.
"Aww!" [Jirachi, please teach me how to use Comet Fist!]
Coach! I want to learn this!
Chapter 190 Comet Fist? Dog Head Impact!
Comet Fist?
Jirachi's little face showed a puzzled expression. Did he know this move?
Jirachi, a Mythical Pokémon, has always relied on its own wishing power and has never realized that it actually has decent base stats.
Meanwhile, during its thousands of years of slumber, Jirachi has been unconsciously absorbing energy scattered from the stars, so the energy level within it is not to be underestimated.
Fang Gu whispered in Jirachi's ear, and the doubt on the latter's face vanished, replaced by surprise.
It patted its chest, its eyes gleaming with excitement, and suddenly said to Riolu, "Kira!" [Riolu, have you ever witnessed a punch that fell from the sky?!]
Just one sentence sparked endless imagination in Riolu.
"Ow!"
Riolu clenched his fists excitedly, eager to see Jirachi's performance.
Without another word, Jirachi leaped up, his cape emitting a blue-green light, and soared into the sky at an incredible speed.
The moment Fang Gu and Riolu looked up, Jirachi had already turned into a small black dot in the sky. Then, with the help of gravity, Jirachi was like a meteor falling to the ground at high speed, constantly emitting silver-white light, like a steel comet!
With a loud "boom," before Fang Gu could react, Jirachi crashed heavily to the ground.
Fang Gu covered his ears, feeling a constant ringing in them, as if he were going deaf. Looking at the ground in front of him, he saw that the soil had been overturned and was nowhere to be seen, leaving only a huge crater and soil scorched by the "Comet Fist".
Fang Gu sighed inwardly, wondering how much it would cost to repair this. Then he saw Riolu excitedly surrounding Jirachi, wanting to become its apprentice, while Jirachi showed a slightly embarrassed expression.
"Forget it, isn't the point of making money to spend it? Seeing Jirachi and Riolu smile is already worth it." Fang Gu kept telling himself this, trying to ignore his bleeding wallet.
Comet Punch, a Steel-type move, has a power of 90 in the game, but Jirachi's version of this move seems to have more than just a simple 90 power; it even feels more destructive than some powerful moves with a power of 150.
Could it be that the Comet Fist technique is more suitable for Jirachi?
Fang Gu had this thought in his mind. Moreover, when Jirachi used the Comet Fist technique, he did not imitate the way a comet streaks across the sky by swinging his fist. Instead, he directly pretended to be a comet falling from the sky.
Kirachi's Comet Fist move should perhaps not be called Comet Fist, but rather Comet Headbutt.
Each Pokémon has a different understanding and way of using the same move. Hopefully, Jirachi won't lead Riolu astray when it's teaching him.
Fang Gu waved to the two little ones, "You two train hard, I'm going back to the cabin. Remember to call me if you need anything."
"Kira!"
"Ow!"
Riolu and Jirachi responded energetically.
Fang Gu left quickly. After Easter, he would make a good plan for the work he was taking over at Stardew Valley Ranch.
After Fang Gu left, Jirachi began to carefully teach Riolu.
"Kira!" [First, gather the energy in your head.]
"Kira!" [What comet punch? It needs a fist. Look at a fist... isn't a fist also a head?]
Riolu was stunned by Jirachi's astonishing wisdom, and then nodded thoughtfully.
…………
Stardew Valley Ranch, cabin.
Fang Gu rubbed his shoulders, which were a little sore from writing at his desk for a long time, and looked at the full page of the plan in front of him.
There are markers of various colors on it, indicating whether something is important or not.
Events like the red-highlighted Longwing Gull special training, Magikarp leaping over the Dragon Gate, and the dessert competition are currently the most crucial events at Stardew Valley Ranch.
The events marked in orange are less important, such as advertising for the strawberry farm, renovations for the future community center, and the construction of a wine cellar at Stardew Valley Ranch.
Below are some general events marked in green.
Fang Gu rubbed his temples. "The work ahead is going to be quite fulfilling."
As if he had thought of something important, Fang Gu turned on his phone and called the person whose contact was marked as "Master Fu".
"Grandpa Afu... there might be something I need your help with..."
After entrusting the matters to Fu Ye, Fang Gu stood up, stretched, and muttered, "It's time to go out and see how Riolu is doing? Has Jirachi shown any talent to become a little teacher?"
Just as Fang Gu was about to leave and walked into the living room, Mianmian Cream Puff, who had just woken up in the closet, greeted him warmly.
Upon meeting, another barrage of verbal attacks ensued, until Fang Gu repeatedly begged for mercy, at which point Mianmian Puff finally stopped.
Mianmian Puff bounced onto Fang Gu's shoulder and rubbed her little face against his neck, as if sending some kind of signal.
"Are you going out today too?" Fang Gu asked in surprise.
Although Puff is also a member of Stardew Valley Ranch, she is a complete "homebody". She usually likes to stay in a corner of the kitchen in the cabin, help Fang Gu with the cooking, and then maybe watch TV.
It avoids getting involved in the external environment if possible.
After all, it didn't want its marshmallow-like exterior to get even a speck of dirt on it.
But today, it changed its nature, which surprised Fang Gu.
“ziyo~”
Mianmian Cream Puff decided to "take the risk" and select the best quality ingredients so that she could win the crown in the dessert competition!
It's a creamy cream puff! We're going to win!
Sensing the fighting spirit emanating from Mianmian Cream Puff, Fang Gu, though still not understanding her motives, was nonetheless inspired by her.
It looks really exciting!
"Let's cheer each other on, Creamy Puffs!"
Fang Gu raised his fist and gently touched the tail of the cream puff.
The agreement was made at this moment.
Mianmian Cream Puff needs to follow Fang Gu to harvest the raw materials that can make the most delicious dessert.
But as soon as Fang Gu stepped out the door, he saw a dog's head, covered in a silvery-white metallic sheen, charging towards him.
Before Fang Gu could dodge, he saw Mianmian Puff jump in front of him with an angry look on her face.
The cream puff instantly released a large amount of marshmallows and cream. The moment the marshmallows touched the other person, they wrapped them up and prevented them from getting any closer.
Riolu, the user of Dog Head Impact, slumped to the ground, clearly unable to fight.
Not far away, Jirachi stuck out his little tongue sheepishly, as if his teaching method had gone wrong.
Chapter 191, see here, there's a bad guy.
Fang Gu took out a water bottle and washed the marshmallow off Riolu's body, but its body, which was originally stuck with marshmallow, was now soaked to the bone.
Riolu pouted. All I wanted was to learn a move.
Do you think it's easy for me?!
