Eddie's golden finger will become stronger as he uses it more and more times. He didn't expect that it would suddenly advance today.
It should be described as "advanced". This is the first time he has the golden finger, so he doesn't quite understand it.
He tried to control the golden finger energy and found that he could control the golden finger energy more easily.
Just when Eddie was planning to strike while the iron was hot and use his advanced golden finger to continue to take care of Carbink, he heard a crisp sound, and the diamonds inlaid on Carbink's body fell off one by one.
"What's going on?"
Eddie was shocked. This is not my fault, right?
"Carbink~Carbink~"
At this time, the Carbink came out quickly to explain that this was not a big deal. When they grew to a certain stage, the diamonds on their bodies would automatically fall off and would grow back in a short time.
The falling of diamonds is a sign of their becoming stronger. The more times they fall off, the stronger they are. This is not the first time that the Carbink have fallen off.
The newly grown diamonds will be harder than the previous ones, providing stronger defense for the Carbink.
After listening to Carbink's explanation, Eddie breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was no problem, it was good.
It's just that... the bare Carbink are a bit ugly.
However, Eddie didn't dare say this out loud as it would hurt the Pokémon's feelings.
Suddenly Eddie seemed to hear some noise.
Click…click…click…click…
"What's that?"
Eddie turned his head to look for it, and then he saw little Larvitar holding a small broken diamond and chewing it happily.
Its teeth are so good that it can even chew diamonds.
"Young Larvitar, what are you doing!"
Eddie roared suddenly, and little Larvitar was frightened so much that he trembled all over, and the half-chewed diamond fell to the ground with a clang.
"Yo~ Yo~" No... I didn't do anything...
Young Larvitar moved his feet guiltily and quietly moved towards the door, trying to escape.
Eddie walked over and blocked the door, "How come your hands are so fast? You eat everything!"
Young Larvitar lowered his head and stirred with his two little fingers, feeling very aggrieved: "Isn't it just a piece of stone? I'm not allowed to eat Silver-gold stone, and I'm not allowed to eat this either!"
At this time, Carbink jumped over and told Eddie that the diamonds it shed were useless, so let the young Larvitar eat them.
When little Larvitar heard this, he looked at Carbink with tears in his eyes: Woohoo...you are so kind! From now on, we are family!
Carbink was embarrassed by little Larvitar.
"Is that why I don't let you eat? You eat everything. What if you get a stomachache?" Eddie said unhappily.
"Yo~ Yo~" No way!
Young Larvitar said with puffed cheeks, and then while Eddie wasn't paying attention, he ran to the half-eaten diamond, picked it up and continued eating.
Crunch~crunch~crunch, so crispy and delicious!
Eddie was so angry that he was speechless.
After their general health care, the Pokémons went back to sleep.
Eddie got up early the next morning because the vacation was over and he had to go back to school.
With Minori at home, Eddie no longer had to get up early in the morning to make breakfast and he slept soundly every day.
After breakfast, he carried his schoolbag and went to school. When he walked out of the yard, he suddenly heard the sound of fighting not far away. He walked over and saw that it was little Larvitar and Carbink doing morning exercises.
Don't be fooled by Carbink's usual quiet appearance, she is actually very decisive when fighting.
I saw young Larvitar lowering his head and rushing towards the Carbink, wanting to attack the Carbink with his Iron Head skill.
But it had only run two steps when transparent rocks suddenly appeared on the ground and kept hitting the little Larvitar, making it scream.
That is the Stealth Rock. Needless to say, it must be the skill of the Carbink.
After the attack of Stealth Rock ended, Young Larvitar regrouped and continued to attack Carbink.
At this moment, rocks suddenly appeared above little Larvitar's head and were about to fall down.
This is the skill Rock Slide.
"Yo~"
Young Larvitar shouted loudly and waved his little fists continuously. White light flashed on his fists and all the falling stones were smashed one by one.
The skill used by Young Larvitar is to break down gradually.
When young Larvitar is born, he only knows three skills: Leer, Sandstorm and an inherited Iron Head. He learned gradual breaking later.
After smashing all the falling rocks, little Larvitar suddenly raised his head and glared at Carbink fiercely, his eyes were wide open, which made him look a bit cute.
This is a Leer skill, and its effect is to lower the opponent's defense.
However, what little Larvitar didn't know was that the characteristic of the Carbink was that its body was always pure, and its Leer would not work.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Carbink shook its body, and the newly grown diamonds on its body suddenly became sparkling, and its body became more angular.
That's right, after just one night, the diamonds on the Carbink grew back, but they were still very small, but they looked much brighter than before.
The skill that Carbink just used was Sharpen, which has the effect of enhancing its own attack.
Pokémon like Carbink have extremely outstanding dual defense, but their dual attacks are a bit weak. If they are not strengthened, the attacks they launch will just be tickles.
Little Larvitar waved his little fists and rushed towards the Carbink. Suddenly, sharp rocks like spears appeared around the Carbink.
Under its control, the Rock Tomb shot out with a "whoosh", but they did not hit little Larvitar. Instead, they formed a circle and trapped little Larvitar inside.
Apparently, Carbink showed mercy.
Little Larvitar was startled and sat down in the middle of the circle, tears welling up in his eyes. Seeing this scene, Carbink immediately became at a loss.
"Little Larvitar, why are you crying? Stand up." Eddie came out and said, "It's just a sparring match. the Carbink didn't hurt you. Why are you crying?"
Young Larvitar pursed his lips and reluctantly got up from the ground, while holding back the tears that had not yet fallen from his eyes.
I'm not even allowed to cry. Is this justice?
"Don't cry when you practice with your friends in the future!" Eddie said again.
Little Larvitar was afraid that his food would be withheld, so he had to nod obediently.
Don't cry, then don't cry. I will be the strogest in the future and make all of you cry.
After Eddie finished speaking, he looked at Carbink and said, "Carbink, you are very strong. Did Sister Flambeau train you like this?"
In just that short moment, Carbink used four skills: Stealth Rock, Rock Slide, Sharpen, and Rock Tomb. He used each of them very skillfully, and it was obvious that he had received special training.
The Carbink nodded shyly.
"Then can you show me the skills you have learned?"
Eddie just came back yesterday and hasn't had time to get to know the Carbink well.
"Carbink~"
Carbink nodded and agreed.
"Then let's get started."
As Eddie finished speaking, a white barrier suddenly appeared in front of Carbink.
"It's Reflect!" Eddie recognized this skill at a glance. Gardevoir also knows this skill, so Eddie is of course very familiar with it.
Then the Carbink jumped up again, and then slammed its body onto the ground. A yellow light spread from the ground, and cracks appeared on the ground immediately.
"Earth Power!"
Of course Eddie also knew this skill. If it weren't for this skill, he wouldn't have fallen into the trap and gone to Sister Flambeau's house in a daze.
After demonstrating the Earth Power, the Carbink's body suddenly lit up with a metallic luster.
The Steel-type skill Iron Defense is used to strengthen defense.
As expected of a Pokémon with extremely high dual defense, Carbink is very talented in learning defensive skills. In addition to Reflect and Iron Defense, it also showed Eddie Magic Coat, a skill that reflects skills that impose abnormal status.
Carbink can also learn Light Screen from Gardevoir, and when conditions permit in the future, she can also learn Wonder Guard.
In this way, Carbink will definitely grow into an excellent meat shield Pokémon!
In addition to the skills mentioned above, Carbink can also use Dazzling Gleam, Gravity and Stomp. It has so many skills that it is the Pokémon that Eddie has learned the most skills among all the Pokémon he has trained so far.
These skills were learned by Flambeau with the help of Carbink.
Eddie praised the Carbink with satisfaction, then suddenly realized that he still had to go to school, so he picked up his schoolbag and ran away.
As expected, Eddie was late.
"Report!"
Standing at the door, Eddie looked embarrassed. The class had already started for more than ten minutes.
"Come in."
The teacher did not blame Eddie. Eddie usually had good grades and was a well-behaved person. This was the first time he was late, so the teacher let him go back to his seat without saying a word.
After Eddie sat down, Ethan quietly leaned over and asked, "Eddie, did you have too much fun during the holiday and overslept this morning?"
Eddie ignored Ethan, who was about to say something slyly, but the teacher's voice rang out.
"Ethan-san, you have so much to say, why don't you go to the podium and say it to everyone."
Ethan stood up and said seriously, "Teacher, what I said is all nonsense. It's not worth listening to."
The classmates burst into laughter when they heard this.
"Sit down, listen carefully in class and don't talk!" The teacher glared at Ethan angrily.
Ethan stuck out his tongue and sat down with a grin.
After school in the afternoon, Eddie went to Mr Brians's house, intending to send the formula and materials for making the exclusive energy cubes for Carbink over and ask Mr Brian to help make them.
Mr Brian took the energy cube formula and took a look at it. He was surprised and asked, "Where did you get this energy cube formula? It's very clever!"
Eddie asked, "Does Mr Brian know Miss Flambeau?"
Mr Brian looked at Eddie unexpectedly: "Have you seen her?"
Eddie nodded: "She was the one who gave me this energy cube formula."
My Brian suddenly realized: "I see, you didn't agree to help her cultivate Diancie?"
"Mr Brian also knows about this?"
Mr Brian said, "Of course I know. She competed for the Elite Four that year just to learn the secrets about Diancie from the Alliance, but the Alliance didn't have any, so she just resigned."
At this point, Mr Brian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"It's no secret that she wants to cultivate Diancie. Old guys like us basically know about it. After so many years, she still hasn't given up."
So many years? Eddie suddenly grasped a key word.
"Mr Brian, is Miss Flambeau very old? She looks like she is only in her teens."
"Teens?" Mr Brian laughed. "Actually, I don't know how old she is, but she's definitely not a teenager. It's been twenty years since she resigned from the position of the Elite Four. She looked like a teenager back then."
"Maybe she's the same age as me!" Mr Brian said jokingly.
There are so many magical things in this world, even immortality exists, not to mention just maintaining an youthful appearance. God knows how old Flambeau is.
"That's possible?" Eddie said hesitantly.
"Who knows? It seems that her withdrawal from the Elite Four was not just because she did not learn Diancie's secret from the Alliance."
"It is said that this is just the superficial reason. She resigned after talking with the chairman of the alliance. No one knows what they talked about. I guess the content of the conversation is the reason for her resignation..."
Mr Brian is...quite nosy.
Probably because he was too excited to talk to Eddie, he began to tell Eddie all sorts of seemingly true gossip about the alliance.
As one of the veteran Elite Four, Mr Brian knew a lot of secrets in the alliance. At least when it came to Sister Flambeau, he knew more than Mr. Gurkinn.
Mr Brian was so excited about what he said that Eddie also felt a little excited. He did not go home until dark. They only ended their conversation when Diantha came to call them.
"Grandpa, please don't tell anyone things that have no evidence." Siebold said helplessly to Mr Brian.
Mr Brian said unhappily, "Do I need you to tell me? I haven't told anyone else. Eddie won't tell anyone casually. Right, Eddie?"
"Of course, I keep my mouth shut." Eddie quickly assured.
Eddie had a meal here in the evening before going back.
Before leaving, he chatted with Salandit for a while. Only after learning that Salandit was doing well here did he leave with peace of mind.
Seeing the reluctant looks of the Salandit and the Hattrem, Eddie felt that he had eaten too much for dinner tonight and was choking.
The next day, Eddie came home from school at noon and saw Gardevoir watching TV. He didn't take it seriously at first, but Gardevoir called him excitedly.
"What's wrong, Mom?" Eddie asked puzzledly.
"Gardevoir~Gardevoir~" Baby, come quickly, something big has happened, something has happened to your good friend!
"Who? Who's in trouble?"
Eddie didn't react for a moment to who his mother was talking about. He hurried over and took the computer that Gardevoir handed over. He saw a video playing on the computer, and the title above the video was:
"The famous philanthropist Lysandre went back on his word and deceived the world and stole his reputation!"
