Awakening

Yuga watched as the Pokémon evolved one by one, feeling immensely pleased, and the Pokémon were filled with gratitude toward Yuga.

He was also fortunate that there were no special individuals among the Pokémon in his Ecopark who didn't want to evolve. If there were, he thought it might make him uncomfortable, as one couldn't force them to evolve.

In reality, the majority of Pokémon were willing to evolve. Evolution was a biological instinct, a pursuit of higher life forms, even if not always for the sake of becoming stronger; most Pokémon were eager to evolve.

Pokémon like those that didn't want to evolve, like Ash's, were genuinely rare.

Yuga arranged the evolution activity in the Grassland Sub-Ecopark. After evolution, the three Honchkrows, three Ninetales, and three Delcatties all returned to their respective groups, and Yuga planned to take the eight Lilligant back to the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark.

Just then, he saw Bellossom approaching him.

After weeks of training, Yuga could now communicate somewhat with his three Grass-type Pokémon (excluding Roserade), but the others were not there yet.

Bellossom: "Bellossom, Bellossom."

"Is Vivillon about to wake up?"

Yuga asked in surprise.

Bellossom nodded quickly and then led Yuga in the direction of the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark, with the eight Lilligant following closely behind.

In the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark, the Lilligant returned to their Grass-type Pokémon group, while Bellossom led Yuga towards the direction of Amber Castle.

After so much time had passed, the number of Combee had grown significantly. With their efforts, Amber Castle had become a magnificent sight, resembling a golden castle from afar, surpassing their previous underground Amber Castle in grandeur.

The original Castle was underground, while this new one was built on the surface.

Amber Castle was constructed entirely from stones and beeswax, extremely sturdy, and the interior of the towering castle was filled with honeycombs, with a flow of golden Sweet Honey.

The conditions in the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark were excellent, and the Combee produced Sweet Honey at a rapid pace, accumulating a substantial quantity.

Yuga had been contemplating how to handle this excess Sweet Honey. Even the Snorlax who is banned from eating Sweet Honey before, now received a regular supply of Sweet Honey.

He had considered selling the Sweet Honey directly in his shop, but he ran a Pokémon Day Care, not a food or general merchandise store; selling Sweet Honey seemed out of place.

As they continued towards the heart of Amber Castle, they arrived at the Vespiqueen's hive.

At this moment, the Vespiqueen and Vivillon were both lying motionless on a stone platform in the center of the hive, but a faint yellow light continued to radiate from their bodies.

These lights rose and fell with the breath of the two Pokémon, giving the impression that they could awaken at any moment.

Yuga had only heard that they were brewing a Enchanted Honey during this time, but he had not seen the final product. He wasn't sure of its effects, but the Vespiqueen claimed it could enhance Bug-type Pokémon's vitality.

This honey was extremely challenging to brew. If it weren't for the Vespiqueen's unexpected breakthrough to the pseudo-Elite level and the excellent conditions of the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark, it would have been impossible to produce.

Yuga waited for nearly three hours until the yellow light on Vivillon and the Vespiqueen finally faded, and the two Pokémon slowly opened their eyes.

Upon seeing Yuga, the newly awakened Vivillon happily flapped its wings and flew towards him.

Yuga noticed a significant change in the awakened Vivillon. Its overall demeanor had improved significantly, becoming more elegant.

The transformation in Vivillon, in a way, was like comparing 480P and 1080P in a video. It used to be 480P, but now it had become 1080P.

In the case of the Vivillon, a species of Pokémon with various wing patterns, there are a total of 20 different patterns. The one that belongs to Yuga is the relatively unremarkable "Icy Snow" pattern, primarily consisting of black and white colors.

However, with this recent change, Yuga's Vivillon can no longer be considered unremarkable. Even with only black and white colors, its appearance has become quite captivating.

...

<<Vivillon>>

Type: Bug, Flying

Gender: Female

Ability: Compound Eyes

Potential: Indigo

Level: 50

Moves: Gust, Stun Spore, Tailwind, Psybeam, Electroweb, Safeguard, Bug Buzz, Quiver Dance, Light Screen, Supersonic, Sleep Powder, Psychic, Powder, Hurricane.

...

With this awakening, Vivillon became Yuga's third level 50 Pokémon in his main battling lineup, following Florges and Chimecho, significantly boosting its strength.

Apart from that, Vivillon also awakened two new skills.

Firstly, there was the Flying-type move Hurricane, which addressed Vivillon's previous lack of powerful offensive abilities.

Then, there was the move Powder, which countered Fire-types. Vivillon had a double weakness to Fire-types, making this move a natural counter to them.

"Vivillon, congratulations to you," Yuga exclaimed with joy.

"Vivillon..."

Vivillon happily circled above Yuga's head upon hearing this, flapping its wings and sprinkling sparkling scales.

However, it soon noticed Bellossom next to Yuga.

Although it knew Bellossom, Bellossom should be in the manor in Mauville City. How could it be here?

Still in a state of slumber, it wasn't aware of what had happened to Yuga in Mauville City.

Seeing Vivillon's puzzled look at Bellossom, Yuga explained everything about Bellossom and the others to it.

Unlike Chimecho the easily jealous and envious, Vivillon warmly welcomed Bellossom and was pleased with its arrival.

Coincidentally, Bellossom wanted to learn the move Quiver Dance from Vivillon, so their relationship couldn't have been better.

Yuga then turned his attention to the Vespiqueen, who had undergone significant changes since consuming the Enchanted Honey.

The most noticeable change was her aura becoming more stable.

The Vespiqueen hadn't advanced normally to the pseudo-Elite level; it had reached that stage through the sacrifice of many Combee, which had left her aura unstable and her strength much weaker than a typical pseudo-Elite.

But after awakening this time, Yuga clearly sensed that her condition had improved significantly. Even though her level hadn't changed much, her strength had increased.

"Long time no see, Vespiqueen. Congratulations!" Yuga smiled at the Vespiqueen.

The Vespiqueen was usually busy taking care of the large bee colony and collecting Honey, so Yuga rarely had the chance to meet her. It had indeed been a while.

The Vespiqueen didn't speak but nodded slightly. From a corner of her hive, she retrieved a small jar the size of a fist and handed it to Yuga.

"This is the last bit of Enchanted Honey. Give it a taste," the Vespiqueen said.

Yuga took the small jar and picked up a bit with his fingers, placing it in his mouth.

(○o○) It's too intense!

As a human, he found it a bit overwhelming and felt the urgent need for a glass of water.

"Can I let Bellossom try it?" Yuga asked the Vespiqueen.

The Vespiqueen nodded.

Yuga picked up a bit more and offered it to Bellossom.

"How is it, Bellossom?"

(*≧▽≦) It's delicious!

Bellossom's reaction was completely different from Yuga's. It seemed to really enjoy the Enchanted Honey.

"I'd like to take some back for the other Pokémon to try, is that okay?" Yuga asked the Vespiqueen again.

Enchanted Honey only had a special effect on Bug-type Pokémon, and a significant quantity was required. Yuga and the other Pokémon would only be able to taste the flavor.

"Since I've given it to you, you can do as you please," the Vespiqueen replied.
