Chapter 10: Chapter 10:Snivy
"Chano~"
Behind the land,
a Snivy poked its head out, looking at the patch of Hearty Grains.
Among all the Grass-type starter Pokémon, Snivy is likely the most common in the wilderness.
Due to Snivy's high intelligence, it tends to have a certain disdain for foolishness.
If it encounters an inexperienced Trainer, it is quite likely to choose to leave on its own.
Moreover, Snivy that can abandon their Trainer typically possess good potential.
Such Snivy naturally survive in the wilderness, and their offspring can often be stronger than those bred by humans.
"Chano~"
Snivy rubbed its belly.
It was a bit hungry but understood that the Hearty Grains belonged to that human.
This Snivy's personality was clearly very proud.
Therefore, it refused to steal.
"Rattata~"
At that moment, three more Rattata rushed out from the side.
They opened their mouths and bit through the rice stalks, dragging them away.
"Chano~?"
Snivy tilted its head, watching them, then looked at Natsume and his friends who were in battle, and immediately got an idea.
"Chano~!"
A Vine Whip shot out from Snivy.
Smack!
The Vine Whip struck one of the Rattata hard, knocking it to the ground.
The rice stalks it held fell as well.
"Rattata!"
The other two Rattata turned angrily to look at Snivy.
"Chano~"
Snivy snorted dismissively.
In front of it, razor-sharp leaves began to gather.
Snivy used Magical Leaf!
The Magical Leaf formed together, then split into two streams that struck the two Rattata.
Boom~
"Chirp chirp!"
Hearing the commotion, Sandshrew hurried over, watching Snivy warily.
"Chano~"
Snivy tossed the three Rattata toward Sandshrew, then pointed with Vine Whip at the Hearty Grains.
Sandshrew scratched its head, looking back.
At that moment, Natsume and his friends had already dealt with the Rattata in front.
Natsume walked over, surprised to see the Snivy that had suddenly appeared before him.

"This Snivy has high potential, and an ability too."
Natsume was amazed as he looked at Snivy's data.
"Chano~"
Snivy gazed at Natsume, then pointed at the Hearty Grains.
Natsume asked, "Do you want to earn some Hearty Grains through battle?"
"Chano~"
Snivy nodded.
"Alright then."
Natsume smiled: "But there are still a few left to harvest here."
"Can you help me guard them for a while?"
Snivy thought for a moment before agreeing.
So, Snivy and Growlithe positioned themselves on either side, together guarding the patch of Hearty Grains.
There were no unexpected incidents, as it was just a hundred square meters of land.
Before long, they finished harvesting the Hearty Grains.
Notice: You have completed a harvest.
Quest Reward: Eternity Power has been granted.
New Quest: Clear an Acre of Land
Quest Reward: Seeds for Rolling Beans; 3 Exp. Candies that provide a large amount of experience; Secret Technique - Sunny Day.
As Natsume listened to the system notification, he closed his eyes and began to feel the changes within his body.
He could sense a peculiar energy flowing inside him.
"Pidgey~"
In the sky, two Spearow flew by.
They landed on the nearby open space.
Natsume suddenly realized that he could understand the meaning behind Pokémon calls intuitively.
The two Spearow caught the scent of the Hearty Grains.
But unfortunately, they had arrived too late.
Notice: You have completed the Hearty Grains Defense Battle.
Quest Reward: 3 Exp. Candies have been granted; Dragon Gem has been granted.
"Chano~"
Snivy called out to Natsume.
It was asking for its "payment."
"Chano~?"
Snivy suddenly showed a confused expression.
Snivy discovered that this human in front of it seemed to give it a feeling of complete trust.
This is the power of Eternity.
An incredible affinity, the ability to communicate with Pokémon, and healing power.
Natsume handed two grain heads to Snivy: "Thank you, Snivy."
Snivy took them, then nibbled on the Hearty Grains as if they were candy.
"Chano~"
Natsume looked at Snivy and invited, "Snivy, would you like to stay on my farm?"
Not only did Snivy have great potential, but it also knew the Grassy Terrain move.
Gr Terrain can fill an area with life force, allowing Pokémon to restore health points.
If a Pokémon is skilled in using Grassy Terrain, it can even make the land more fertile.
In that case, even wasteland would become suitable for sowing.
Thus, Natsume didn't want to let Snivy leave just yet.
Upon hearing Natsume's words, Snivy showed a hint of hesitation.
Natsume noticed the expression on Snivy's face and smiled: "Speaking of which, that figure I saw in the house before was you, wasn't it?"
Snivy glanced back at the house and nodded.
"Well, you can stay here for a few more days and then make your decision."
After pondering for a moment, Snivy thought that this was a good idea and agreed to Natsume's invitation.
"Chano~"
Seeing that Snivy temporarily agreed to stay, Natsume felt relieved.
"Thank you all for your hard work."
Natsume took out some Exp. Candy.
He gave two candies to Growlithe.
"Awooo~"
Growlithe opened its mouth and devoured both Exp. Candies.
Notice: Growlithe's level has increased to 18.
"Whoosh~"
Growlithe shook its head, the energy surging within it made Growlithe feel inexplicably excited.
"What's up, Growlithe?"
Natsume asked as he looked at Growlithe.
"Awooo~ Whoosh~"
Growlithe's breathing became heavier.
Fire-type energy suddenly gathered at the edge of Growlithe's mouth.
Boom!
A torrent of searing flames formed and shot into the sky!
Notice: Your Growlithe has automatically learned Flamethrower!
