Chapter 66 - Vines of the forest-part 3

"Venasaur, nidoking, nidoqueen, crobat, gengar try to pull out the toxins from the ground." I said. Flora and torterra were shocked. My pokemon eyes gleamed. They realized that they can improve there poision potential this way.

They eagerly extracted the poision from the ground.

Flora said in alarm "What are you doing, it could hurt your pokemon." 

"No it won't." I said. I was about to give them antidote when suddenly the ground errupted and a high ammount of toxic material was released. Shit. I immediately covered mine and flora face with the mask I had brought. Torterra to stayed away from it. But my pokemon. Unlike other's they did not see danger. They saw an opportunity to evolve. They eagerly extracted it like it was an elixer of life. I would occasionallly call them one at a time to take antidote. One would come while the others would continue to extract. 

Them seem to be enjoying it. But it soon was half an hour and the poision wasn't stopping. Anymore and they would be in dire state.

I said "nelly extract all poision and store it."

Nelly said "that would be one million with 5% interest."

I asked incredulous "since when did you take interest."

Nelly smiled and said "Since now host. The new system update requires extra money you see." 

"Fine just do it." I sighed. Soon the poision was extracted. 

Torterra muttered in confusion "Was the ammount of toxins really that less." He then turned to me, he did not know what I did but he could feel it was due to my interference that the toxins decreased.

"Well I have to thank you for your help. Though the sir is still not pure but its good enough for now." Torterra said.

"Torterra safeguard usually protects from poision status from inflicting, how about you use it." I said, in real life the move not only protected from status moves but anything really that can cause a status effect.

But then I backtracked muttering "But it would mean spending an indispensable ammount of energy to put a barrier again and again. If only we had a covert cloak or something but just that it now only prevents poisioning from pokemon but other effects too." 

Then only nelly appeared.

"Host I have a special covert cloak that can work for million of years. But its an S grade item so..."

"Just take the money from the points I earned nelly. Just do what you want. Won't be the first time that I have not been in debt with you." I thought dryly.

"Ok Boss." Nelly said.

I went to torterra "Here is a covert cloak torterra, its a high grade item, Unlike normal covert cloak this one can prevent poisioning from external factors. But about the already lost energy due to previous poisioning..."

"Don't worry, the wisteria tree once its not exposed of poisioning can cure itself." Torterra said with a smile.

"You have helped me a lot, if I know right you trainers raise pokemon to be strong don't you." Torterra asked.

I smiled and nodded "Yeah torterra that's one of our job."

"Would you like to raise one of my offsprings. She has not been born yet as its not time but in a few years she will." Torterra said with a smile.

"Really, I would love to torterra. But how am I to know when is the time." I asked.

"

When seasons turn three times to gray, A silent shadow finds its forest way. No thunder heralds, no banner flies, But the moss remembers in the greenwood's eyes.

walk the path the ancients only knew, Where sun-dappled secrets pierce the dew. The root-bound heart shall recognize its twin, And the long-slumbering age of power will begin."

Torterra said like he saw the future, which is really strange cause he is a grass and ground type pokemon. But well he wasn't suppose to be that big but he is isn't he.

"Host doesn't he just mean to come by in three years." Nelly said.

"Well looks like so, By that time I will travel to shinoh as that is when team galactic will rise. Plus we can't forget hunter J can we." I thought ammused at the coincidence of getting a shinoh starter when I go to shinoh.

"Thank you torterra. I will be sure to take care of your child. I will ensure not to be late." I said with a smile. Torterra nodded at that, he turned to flora "My dear don't dispair your time will come." 

Flora nodded at that, it looked like she was feeling guilty for being unable to help.

Torterra turned back to me"That's not your only reward though, you have done a huge favour to us, wisteria tree would like to gift the grass essence to your veansaur."

Venasaur, on hearing this immediately went to have the energy. The beam emerged from the tree. Venasaur was now psudo legend class. Just prooves how much difficult it is now to improve the class. The energy drained were high class energy but still advancement was only by one level. Doesn't mean I am not at all happy though. 

I bowed down showing my respect, venasaur bowed too. I mean dude you know how rare it is to get advancement in potential.

Flora too bowed in front of me giving her thanks to me for saving the forest. Torterra returned to his deep sleep again. Until next time torterra.

"Is there any thing I can do to show my apreciation miss Regina." Flora asked earnestly turning to me. 

"You really don't need to-" I said.

"Please let me. Its my, heir of evergreen family duty to protect and preserve lord torterra peace and this forest calm. You have helped me complete a grave task. Let me repay you." Flora said.

"Well if you really want to repay the favour then how about becoming one of the elite four."Yeah Not the time, should read the mood, yeah but well its now or never right. Flora was totally shocked at that. She tremblingly says "Stop Joking around miss Regina.". 

I smiled while saying "no I am not joking, I saw you using leaf storm attack, the entire forest was almost destroyed, such power and plus your position in the league tournament is also not something to joke about, you would have been the champion if not for lance defeating you. So I wanted to see just how strong you actually are during a battle and therefore came to challenge you. I wanted to see if you really are strong enough to be able to hold the mantle as an elite four and now I am sure that I am right. Though you still have to give a test prepared by the league as per the norms though before the title is officially yours."

Flora said "I can't even express just how, how..." She was unable to speak.

"Just come to the league for your test and pass it. Nothing more, nothing less." I said with a smile.
