Breeding Diancie is not as easy as it sounds. Eddie carefully examined the body of each Carbink.
Although Sister Flambeau has clearly drawn the energy circuit of the Carbink, for Eddie, the simple pattern is not as three-dimensional as the real thing.
Sure enough, when Eddie used the golden finger to see the actual energy circuits of the Carbink, he had a clearer understanding of the Carbink's body structure.
Except for special individuals with abnormal development, the energy circuits of Pokémon of the same species are generally the same, with only minor differences.
As he checked them one by one, Eddie had a clear understanding of the Carbink's body. At this time, he thought:
If I could see what a real Diancie's body structure is like, maybe I could actually breed a new Diancie.
Finally, Eddie began to examine his special Carbink.
Just like what Sister Flambeau said, the energy circuit of this Carbink is basically the same as that of its peers, except that there is an energy circuit core in the shape of a diamond in the center of the energy circuit.
The energy circuits that make up the core of this diamond are intertwined with each other. If you look closely, you will see that they are so densely packed that you may even feel dizzy if you look at them for a long time.
And this core is dim, which means that Eddie needs to light it up bit by bit.
Thinking of this, Eddie couldn't help but have a headache. How long would it take to light it up?
It took him several years to fully light up the hidden energy circuits of the level of the Helioptile and the Brionne. Wouldn't it take him decades to light up the Carbink's?
Sure enough, it is not that easy to breed a mythical Pokémon!
Hey~ let's take it one step at a time!
Flambeau saw the whole process of Eddie checking the Carbink. Her perception was extremely sharp. Although there was no obvious energy fluctuation on Eddie's body, she still discovered the existence of the golden finger.
"Did you use your ability just now?" Flambeau looked at Eddie with a smile.
"Ah? Yes, that's right." Eddie didn't expect Flambeau to be so perceptive.
"It's a very strange ability. I have seen many people with special abilities, but this is the first time I have seen someone like you." Flambeau said thoughtfully.
"Ahahaha..." Eddie didn't know how to respond to Flambeau's words, so he could only smile and get away with it.
You can't say that he is a time traveler, so his golden finger is special, right?
Seeing that Eddie didn't respond to her words, Flambeau didn't say much. She was not interested in exploring other people's secrets. As long as they could help her cultivate Diancie, it would be enough.
"Have you finished the inspection?" Flambeau asked.
"I've finished the inspection." Eddie nodded. He looked at the sky and felt that it was getting late, so he said goodbye, "Sister, it's getting late. I should go."
Flambeau nodded and said, "It's getting late, please leave me your contact information."
Eddie nodded and told Flambeau his phone number.
"Wait a moment." After writing down Eddie's contact information, Flambeau said again.
After saying that, she waved in the direction of the house, and the Goodra that gave Eddie the Silver-gold stone appeared again, this time holding a space backpack in its hand.
At Flambeau's signal, Goodra stuffed the space backpack into Eddie's arms and handed a piece of paper to Eddie.
"This is?"
Eddie looked at the space backpack, then looked at the paper in his hand. The color of the paper was a little yellow, and it didn't look like something that had just been written.
Flambeau explained, "Written on that piece of paper is the formula for the energy cube that is exclusive to the Carbink, and the space backpack contains the ore that is a specialty of the Mineral Country. That ore is one of the raw materials for Carbink's food. When you make the energy cube, you need to add a little of this ore."
When Eddie heard this, he immediately exclaimed, "Wow, even the meals are provided?"
Eddie opened the space backpack and saw that it was filled with a kind of colorless and transparent crystal stones. It looked very beautiful. Unexpectedly, it was actually the food for the Carbink.
It's... quite luxurious.
"When you finish eating what you have, you can contact me again and I will send you more." Flambeau said.
"I understand, Sister Flambeau." Eddie nodded blankly, and suddenly felt that freeloading was actually quite delicious and easy to digest.
Seeing Eddie being so obedient, Flambeau nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you can go now. If you have any questions during the process of cultivating the Carbink, you can contact me at any time. If you need anything, you can ask me for help."
Eddie nodded, and was about to leave with Gardevoir and the newly acquired Carbink fragments, when Flambeau suddenly said, "Forget it, I'll take you away. If you get in here by mistake, you may not be able to find your way back."
After saying that, a strong and dazzling purple light suddenly flashed in Flambeau's eyes, and a powerful mental force instantly spread out. Eddie, the psychic novice, was oppressed and his face turned pale.
After a while, a Dragonite fell from the sky.
Another quasi-god, and he looks quite powerful!
Eddie couldn't help but guess Sister Flambeau's identity in his heart again.
"Let Dragonite take you away? Where are you going? Shalour City?" Flambeau said.
"Yes." Eddie nodded.
"Then go ahead."
Eddie took Gardevoir and the others and climbed onto the back of the Dragonite according to Sister Flambeau's instructions. The back of the Dragonite was very broad, and they did not feel crowded at all sitting on it.
The Dragonite seemed to dislike having people sit on its back. It snorted uncomfortably, then flapped its wings and flew up with Eddie and the others on its back.
Only on the back of the Dragonite did Eddie see clearly where Sister Flambeau lived.
There is a cliff at the entrance of the mine. The mountain stream below the cliff extends all the way to the east. Then the terrain becomes flatter and flatter until the mountain stream disappears completely. What appears at the end is the flower field that Eddie saw at first.
The mine and Sister Flambeau's residence are actually not far away.
Eddie noted down the location where Sister Flambeau lived, and then arrived at Shalour City under the escort of Dragonite.
The Dragonite landed on a beach. Since there were almost no people here, it could be seen that the Dragonite was very familiar with the area around Shalour City and must have come here many times.
Eddie and Gardevoir had just gotten off the back of the Dragonite when suddenly a voice sounded not far away.
"Young man, is that you?"
Eddie looked back and found that he had met Korrina again.
By the way, do you like to hang out on the beaches around here when you have nothing to do? Eddie couldn't help but complain in his heart.
The Dragonite ignored the sudden appearance of Gurkinn, glanced at him lightly, then spread its wings and flew away.
"That... Dragonite..." Gurkinn muttered as he watched the Dragonite flying away.
"Mr. Gurkinn?" Seeing Gurkinn in a daze, Eddie called him.
"Boy, do you know me?" Gurkinn asked after coming back to his senses.
Eddie nodded and said, "You are the Gym Leader of Shalour City, of course I know you."
"That's right…" Gurkinn nodded, then asked, "Young man, do you know Miss Flambeau?"
Eddie was a little surprised when he heard this. He looked at Gurkinn with a surprised look and asked, "Mr. Gurkinn also knows Sister Flambeau?"
"Sister Flambeau?" When Gurkinn heard Eddie addressing Flambeau, a strange look flashed across his face.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Eddie looked confused.
Gurkinn shook his head: "Nothing, that Dragonite just now was Miss Flambeau's Pokémon, right?"
"Yes." Eddie nodded.
"I haven't seen it for a while." Gurkinn sighed, then looked at Eddie and said, "Young man, are you familiar with Miss Flambeau?"
He came here because he saw the Dragonite while taking a walk, but he didn't expect to meet Eddie.
Eddie shook his head and said, "We just met today.""So that's how it is. Miss Flambeau must like you very much, otherwise she wouldn't let Dragonite send you off." Gurkinn said with a smile.
Eddie thought: It's not that she likes me that much, she just wants me to help with something.
"Is Mr. Gurkinn familiar with Sister Flambeau?" Eddie asked.
"Familiar?" Gurkinn was stunned, then thought for a moment and said, "I guess so. After all, we've been neighbors for many years."
"Who is Sister Flambeau? I feel like she's very powerful." Eddie continued to ask Gurkinn for information about Flambeau.
Korrina was silent for a while before saying, "She... Of course she is amazing. Miss Flambeau was once one of the Elite Four of the Kalos region."
Eddie's eyes widened in surprise when he heard this.
"The Elite Four?"
Korrina nodded and said, "Yes, but Miss Flambeau only stayed in the position of the Elite Four for more than a month before she took the initiative to resign. No one knows the specific reason. If she hadn't taken the initiative to resign, it would be hard to say who would be the Champion of the Kalos region now..."
Speaking of this, Gurkinn's tone was full of regret.
No one knows what Miss Flambeau's background is. All we know is that when she participated in the election of the Elite Four, her popularity was extremely high and she could be said to be the first without a gap.
When she withdrew from the Elite Four, countless people cried and felt pain because of it.
Many years have passed, and I don't know how many people still remember Miss Flambeau...
Eddie was so shocked by Gurkinn's words that his brain stopped thinking.
Is this... so powerful?
Seeing Eddie's surprised face, Gurkinn patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hahaha... young man, since you have won the favor of Miss Flambeau, then work hard!"
After saying that, Gurkinn left. He didn't ask Eddie's name. If they were destined to meet again, they would meet again. It would not be too late to ask then.
Eddie and his companions rested one night in Shalour City that day and returned to Lumiose City early the next morning, riding on a speedier aircraft.
As soon as he got home, little Larvitar couldn't wait to pour out the Silver-gold stones that Sister Flambeau had given him, then dived into them and rolled around in them.
"Yo~ Yo~ Yo~" Happy~~~
Eddie pulled its tail and pulled it out from the Gurkinn and said, "I'll collect these Silver-gold stones for you. I'll give you one piece every day. The rest of the time, you can use the soil you brought back from the mine to satisfy your cravings."
"Yo~ Yo~ Yo~" Why, why, why!
When little Larvitar heard this, he became unhappy and started jumping up and down to resist Eddie.
Eddie held its little head and said, "If I give it all to you, you can make it all in a few days. Do you want to eat it all at once and never eat it again?"
When little Larvitar heard this, he stopped making a fuss.
"Yo~ Yo~" After you finish eating, you can buy more...
After saying that, little Larvitar sat down on the ground, kicking his two little feet.
"Yo~ Yo~ Yo~" Ah… I want to have a mine too!!!
Young Larvitar suddenly let out a long howl toward the sky, but his figure was so immature that it sounded a little funny.
Ignoring young Larvitar, Eddie went to arrange a room for his new Pokémon.
I hadn't thought about adding Carbink, so the room was decorated temporarily. Fortunately, there was nothing missing at home, and I had everything I needed.
"Carbink, this will be your new home from now on. You can live here with peace of mind. If you have any needs or are not used to anything, you can tell me at any time. Don't feel any psychological burden."
Eddie spoke to Carbink gently. He was afraid that Carbink would feel uneasy after just arriving here, so Eddie tried his best to speak to it in a calmer tone.
"Carbink~Carbink~"
Carbink nodded and walked around the room, looking very happy with his new place.
"Okay, I'll take you to meet the other Pokémon in the house. They are all very kind, and I believe you will like them all." Eddie said.
"Carbink~"
Carbink responded and went outside with Eddie in a good mood.
Upon learning that a new partner had joined, everyone started celebrating again.
Great, I can have health care again.
The confused Carbink thought that everyone liked it very much and was a little flattered for a moment, and she couldn't hide the happiness on her face.
(Brionne: I can tell you as someone who has experienced this, you are overthinking it.)
In the evening, Salandit and Eddie worked together to prepare a sumptuous dinner to welcome Carbink to join them.
Unfortunately, although everyone was enjoying the meal, the Carbink was not interested in human food. It just took a quick bite and didn't move.
Eddie knew that it didn't like it so he didn't force it and specially prepared some fruits that suited its taste.
But Carbink was still very happy because everyone was very welcoming to it and kept talking and chatting with it, and it didn't feel neglected at all.
At night, the Pokémons enjoyed the health care they wished for.
As a new member, Carbink received special treatment and its health care time was much longer than that of other Pokémon. For a moment, everyone cast envious glances at it.
Although Carbink was shy, she felt secretly happy in her heart.
It likes the feeling of being watched by everyone.
[TL: ???]
Eddie helped Carbink sort out and purify the energy in his body over and over again.
But what surprised him was that the energy accumulation, energy purity and energy quality of the Carbink were far beyond those of ordinary Pokémon, and could even be compared with the young Larvitar that had been combed and purified many times by Eddie.
Obviously, Carbink has received a certain degree of training from Sister Flambeau.
As the time of health care increased, Eddie suddenly felt that the golden finger energy in his body and the original energy in the Carbink body had reached a critical point.
Boom!!!
As Eddie's heart shook, a roar came from his mind, making him a little dizzy.
After recovering, Eddie was surprised to find that his golden finger energy had more than doubled in both quantity and quality.
Is this considered an advanced level of Gold Finger?
