January 1st, clear.
Today, my Family has become very strange. When I woke up this morning, my Aunties were looking at me with very strange eyes.
They had never looked at me with such strange eyes before. Fortunately, my sister hasn't changed yet.
Yu Feng, hiding in a tree hollow, tightly hugged his sister in his arms and carefully poked his head out.
The usually vibrant forest, full of spring, was now covered in white snow.
Occasionally, a few Rattata would pop their heads out of the snow, looking for something to eat.
They haven't come yet, what should I do?
Ralts? (What's wrong with Mom and them?)
Shiny Ralts, a little scared, hugged her older brother. She had also been startled by her mother's actions this morning.
Shhh, quiet.
Hearing his Lao Mei's words, Yu Feng quickly covered her mouth and simultaneously shrank back into the shadows.
He knew that if he didn't, he would soon be found by his mother and the others.
Gardevoir? (Xiao Feng Feng, where are you? Mwah mwah mwah mwah.)
Sure enough, after he hid, a Boss Gardevoir with glowing red eyes and a sharp gaze appeared in the snowy area.
She swayed back and forth, rummaging through nearby hiding spots, all the while muttering strange words.
After searching most of the surrounding hiding places, she turned her gaze to the only remaining hiding spot here.
The tree hollow of that large tree. Although the entrance was a bit small, they had Psychic powers, so they might have teleported inside.
As the sound of footsteps treading on the fluffy snow grew closer, Yu Feng and Shiny Ralts quietly held their breath.
Gardevoir. (Let me see, is the naughty little fellow hiding here? Mwah mwah mwah mwah.)
Boss Gardevoir bent down, aligning her head with the tree hollow to better observe the situation inside.
As Boss Gardevoir's face appeared before the tree hollow, her red-glowing eyes scanned the interior.
Suddenly, Boss Gardevoir seemed to see something. She reached her hand into the tree hollow and picked up a very thin blue hair.
Seeing this, sweat involuntarily started to drip from Yu Feng's face. Fortunately, Shiny Ralts noticed this and gently wiped away the sweat from his face with her hand.
Shiny Ralts looked at her brother's sweat on her hand and fell into thought. She carefully looked around and saw that her older brother was nervously watching Auntie's face and hadn't noticed her.
Auntie hadn't seen the two of them either. Instantly, she put her small hand into her mouth. Hmm, sweet. She had eaten too much of her brother's candy.
Gardevoir~ (Look what I found~~ Xiao Feng Feng's hair, mwah mwah mwah mwah.)
She picked up the hair in her hand, sniffed it, and confirmed that it was Xiao Feng Feng's hair.
She brought her head closer again, the red glow from her eyes providing a faint light, allowing her to see the situation inside the tree hollow clearly.
Gardevoir~ (Is he here~~ Got! You! Mwah mwah mwah mwah.)
Boss Gardevoir reached her hand into the shadows, fumbling for where Yu Feng might be hiding. Suddenly, she touched something soft, and in her excitement, she directly put her other hand in as well.
She grabbed the soft creature and pulled it out. Boss Gardevoir held him high, looking at her little nephew in her hand with a 'sunny' expression.
Gardevoir? (Who are you, mwah mwah mwah mwah?)
Boss Gardevoir, holding a clearly bewildered Greedent, looked a little confused. She had clearly seen Xiao Feng and them inside before?
Why did she pull out a Greedent instead? If it was inside, why didn't it fight with Xiao Feng and them?
Chirp chirp chirp! Squeak squeak!! Chirp chirp squeak!
Greedent was swearing and pointing at Boss Gardevoir, scolding her about something.
Although it wasn't translated, it was clear that Greedent's insults were very harsh.
Gardevoir. (It looks like he ran off somewhere else, mwah mwah mwah mwah.)
Boss Gardevoir looked in the other direction, picked her ears, stuffed Greedent back into the tree hollow, and then decisively walked off to search for her little nephew elsewhere.
Chirp chirp chirp!!!!
Greedent, put back into the tree hollow, poked his head out and furiously waved his hands in the direction Boss Gardevoir had gone.
He seemed very displeased, as if he wanted to fight her.
After scolding for a while, Greedent poked his head out and looked around. After confirming that there were no other Pokémon nearby, he gently tapped the shadows above him.
Chirp chirp
Greedent seemed to be calling for something. After a while, the shadows twitched slightly, and Yu Feng, holding Shiny Ralts, fell out of the shadows above, landing on Greedent's fluffy large tail.
Ouch.
Even though Yu Feng fell, holding his sister above him, his head hit the tree trunk behind him hard.
Chirp chirp
Greedent didn't have time to feel bad about his food being crushed. He checked Yu Feng's head to make sure he wasn't hurt, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
If he really got hurt here, he wouldn't be able to live in this forest anymore.
Chirp chirp.
Greedent pointed outside, then made a walking motion, trying to explain to Yu Feng that the Boss Gardevoir had left.
You don't need to gesture, I can understand when you speak.
Watching Greedent dance his plump body, gesturing and speaking, Yu Feng and Shiny Ralts both burst out laughing.
Chirp chirp! Chirp chirp!
Hearing Yu Feng's words, Greedent slapped his hand as if realizing something, as if it was indeed true. He awkwardly scratched his head and informed Yu Feng that it was safe outside.
Is it safe? No, the forest isn't safe now. I need to find Auntie Hatterene. She'll definitely have a solution.
Hearing Greedent's words, Yu Feng nodded, but corrected Greedent, saying the forest was not safe right now.
Squeak?
Scratching his head, Greedent was a little confused. Wasn't it just snowing? What was dangerous about that? Didn't this time of year happen every year?
No, I'm not talking about you, but it's more dangerous for me.
Yu Feng shook his head and ruffled Greedent's tail, ignoring Greedent's murderous gaze. He pulled out two Oran Berries and handed them to his Lao Mei. They had left in a hurry this morning and hadn't eaten anything.
Squeak squeak!
Greedent watched them eat his stored food, his cheeks puffing up with anger. However, as if remembering something, he gave Yu Feng another warning.
You mean you saw a group of strange Ponyta come to the forest today? I can go ask them for help?
Hearing Greedent's words, Yu Feng was a little surprised. He admitted that this forest had a lot of species, but pink Ponyta? Wasn't that a Galar regional form? This was getting more and more suspicious. What kind of place was this?
But for now, he still had to go find Auntie Hatterene and them for help. He hoped they hadn't become strange.
Having made up his mind, Yu Feng took his Lao Mei and bid farewell to Greedent, walking towards Auntie Hatterene's camp, which they knew well.
Greedent wasn't worried about the two of them. When these two were born, their Family had directly announced it to all the Pokémon in the forest.
He was just heartbroken that half of his emergency rations had been pilfered by these two little rascals. Fortunately, he had dropped a lot of things from his tail earlier.
After the boy and the Pokémon left his sight, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned around, only to see several Gardevoir with eerie smiles staring intently at him.
