Chapter 99

"Dragonair, the Dragon Pokemon. Dragonair is a long, serpentine reptilian Pokémon with sky-blue scales and a white underside. It has a rounded snout, oval purple eyes, and a small, white horn on its forehead. On each side of its head is a small, stylized wing, which is white and curves into a swirl at the base. Three blue, crystal orbs adorn its body: one on its neck and two on its tail. It can make its wings grow larger to fly, but otherwise moves through the air using its control over weather that helps it ride the wind.

Dragonair emits a gentle aura that gives it a mystical appearance. It hosts a large amount of energy within its body, which it can discharge through the crystals on its neck and tail. This causes its body to brighten and give off a different aura that changes the weather in its vicinity. As a result, Dragonair has been referred to as a divine Pokémon since ancient times by agricultural people. Dragonair is a rare Pokémon that inhabits pristine seas and lakes..."

Misty ecstatically looked at the beautiful Pokémon that was sitting on top of the water, playing around with its cute little child.

"Dratini, the Dragon Pokémon. Dratini is a reptilian Pokémon with a blue serpentine body and a white underside. It has white, three-pronged fins on the sides of its head and a white bump on its forehead, which is its horn growing. Above its round, white snout are oval, purple eyes.

Dratini's life energy is constantly building so it is always growing, and can reach lengths of over six feet. As it grows, it sheds its skin regularly that can be used to create super luxury boots..."

"Ehhh!!" She squealed like a little girl. "Aizen! It's so cute!!"

"Yes, it is." He smiled and nodded his head, looking at the pair of mother and child.

Misty had seen Sabrina's Dragonite, and though it was cute too, and looked quite intimidating, she quite preferred the beauty of Dragonair and the cuteness of Dratini. It was the first time in her life that she was looking at them in person, and she was helplessly in love with their beauty now.

"Are you going to catch it?" She curiously asked Aizen.

"No." He knew that she was talking about the little Dratini.

"You don't want a Dragonite on your team?"

"I do. But I don't have the heart to take away a child from its mother who seems quite attached to it and is willing to take care of it." He smiled and said. "I will find my Dragonite somewhere else."

He already had a place in his mind.

"Oh..." She turned to look again at the pair, and she stubbornly quashed her desire to catch the cute little Dratini after hearing Aizen's words.

She felt a little ashamed for even entertaining such a thought. The mother and child looked so peaceful and happy together.

Aizen stopped recording when Dragonair looked their way and then dived back down in the spring with her child.

"Let's go!" He said as he picked up the backpack and wore it on his back.

"Hmph!" Misty suddenly reminded herself that she was still mad at him, and then turned her face away, picking her backpack up and walking ahead of him.

She had a really funny walk today, and it was because she was sore after last night's indulgence. He was really mean and showed no mercy to her last night, even though it was her first time. But she was just pretending to be mad at him. In her heart, she was really happy and still blushed from time to time as the events of their indulgence flashed through her mind.

Since they were now descending the mountains, Aizen took the longer route which was much safer and faster.

Anira, Leaf, and Sabrina were supposed to be waiting for them by the lake at the foot of the mountain. And so, Misty and Aizen did not take any stops to get some rest.

Early in the afternoon, they finally arrived at the rendezvous point, where the girls were indeed waiting for the two of them.

"Brother!" Anira happily ran up to him and jumped in his arms. "I missed you!"

"I missed you too!" He planted a kiss on her forehead and tightly hugged her. "So, did you have fun?"

"Yes!" She brightly nodded her head. "Now tell me, how many Pokémon did you catch?!"

"Only one." He stuck his tongue at her. "But I won't tell you what it is."

"I caught four!" Misty too informed the little princess. "And I am keeping them a surprise too!"

"Okay!" Anira was not in the least displeased and then happily hugged Rinko in her arms.

"Togee..." Aizen accepted the Egg Pokémon Blissey handed to him.

"You missed me, eh?"

"Toge!" The little Pokémon cutely nodded and then moaned as he caressed its head.

"I heard you found your Pinsir." He smiled at the hazel-eyed girl, who brightly nodded to him.

"Yes!" Leaf excitedly said and then grinned at Misty, who was suddenly shaking due to creeps that spread through her.

"Why..." She pitifully looked at Leaf, who just stuck her tongue at her in answer.

"And I guess you did not find anything to your liking?" Aizen knowingly smiled at Sabrina, who nodded to him affirmatively. "So, what's the plan now?" He curiously asked everyone. "We have less than a day left in the Safari Zone. Should we head out or look around?"

"We are catching Tauros!" Anira suddenly announced.

"What?" Aizen curiously looked at her.

"I called Grandma last night. And we could use some more Tauros at Blanc Island. Of course, it isn't anything urgent."

"Okay." Aizen nodded to her. He knew that their Grandma was most likely planning it as a fun activity for their group. After all, they had a little too many servants and Rangers at Blanc Island who could do this job. "How many?" He asked.

"We need 13 more for a total of 24." She smiled at him. "Sabrina has already caught 9. Leaf has used up her limit of 3 as well. And she plans on keeping one for her team."

He understandably nodded his head to her words. Sabrina could catch up to 9 Pokémon of the same specie, thanks to the Perks on her S-Class License. But Leaf could only catch up to 3. Thankfully, the girls had not waited for him, and they only had to search for 13 more now.

"Let's go!" Misty excitedly said. "I will catch one for myself, and two for you."

"No lunch then?" He smiled and asked.

"We already ate." Anira and Leaf informed them, which caused him to sigh.

"Okay. Let's search for a herd of Tauros then."

The two young girls were really curious when they found Misty walking strangely, and when asked if she was okay, the orange-haired girl started cursing Aizen.

She told the girls how he made her take the dangerous trek up the mountains and nearly exhausted her to death.

Anira did not really buy her words when she caught the blush on her cheeks, but Leaf fell for her excuse. After all, Aizen was really ruthless and pushed her to her limits too when he made her train in the mornings.

The Hazel-eyed girl sighed when she realised that the good days were coming to an end. As soon as they would leave the Safari Zone, they would go back to their daily routines and painful morning exercises.

Though she was no longer scared of the prospect of training, she still did not like pushing her body to its limits.

The group chose to search the grasslands in the Safari Park that were on their way to the Main Gate. And luckily, they did come across a herd of Tauros who were grazing the field.

Without wasting any time, he locked the ones they needed using his Psychic Power and then threw the Safari Balls at them.

The other trainers in the distance were surprised when they saw them catching so many Tauros, but no one stepped forward to question their group.

After all, all Tauros were male, and that meant that every single Tauros here was meant to be caught by Trainers. Since there were no Miltank in the Safari Zone, who could reproduce by mating with these wild bulls, they were not really harming the ecosystem.

The Rangers would bring in more Tauros from all over the Region at the end of this summer window to raise their population at the park. And they would do the same for any other specie of Pokémon that was meant to be found in the Safari Zone.

Misty too managed to catch three Tauros as she planned. She was quite happy at finding five new additions to her team after visiting the Safari Park. Her time here was arguably the happiest in her entire life. And just the thought of this warmed up her cheeks.

After camping at a grassland for the night. The group reached the Main Gate early the next morning.

Anira grabbed Aizen's hand and Leaf did the same with Misty, dragging them to the Ranger's Office to see which Pokémon they had caught. But it was not until they arrived at the Pokémon Center that Misty showed them her new Pokémon.

"Oh my god! It's so cute!" Leaf fondly looked at the little Horsea in Misty's arms. And then glanced at the Slowpoke, who had its trademark dumb look on its face. She glanced at the

Doduo that was standing next to its Trainer and brightly smiled when it said something.

"Nnaaaaa!!"

"So cute!" She fell in love with his voice and carefully scratched its head.

"And your fourth Pokémon?" Anira excitedly asked.

"Come!" Misty recalled Doduo and Slowpoke before leading the group to the pool inside the Pokémon Center. She threw her Pokéball in the air, calling out the fourth Pokémon she had caught.

"Wow!" Leaf happily clapped her hands when she saw the beautiful Goldeen.

"So you found yourself three new Water Pokémon!" Anira happily laughed and then congratulated Misty.

Leaf did the same and then everyone turned to look at Aizen, who was wearing a very playful smile.

"Your turn!" Leaf said and got even more curious when she found Aizen scanning the area, making sure there was no one else around.

Anira too caught the excitement in Misty's eyes, which flared up her curiosity. But nothing could have prepared her for the Pokémon that Aizen called out.

"Wahhhh!!!!" Both Anira and Leaf screamed out in shock and awe. And even Misty's eyes were fixated on the Golden Magikarp.

"Congratulations!" Sabrina, who was the only one to not fall in a trance, said, but she too curiously looked at the Golden Magikarp.

"Thank you!" He brightly smiled at her and then kept recording the expressions of the girls. He burst out laughing when Leaf turned to look at him in disbelief.

"You found a Shiny?!"

"Yes!" He proudly nodded his head and then caught his little sister who suddenly jumped into his arms.

"Congratulations!!!" She was very excited and planted kisses all over his face.

"Thank you, Princess." He felt warm in his heart and then hugged her tightly, returning the courtesy by showering her beautiful face with kisses.

After she separated from his arms, she quickly joined Misty and Leaf, who were playing around with Magikarp. Of course, they were not really playing with it since it had the same dumb look on its face as that of Misty's Slowpoke. But it allowed them to touch it, which was more than enough to make them happy.

Aizen let the girls be and left with Sabrina to send the Tauros they had caught to the Blanc Island.
