Pokémon Padea Adventure: The Journey Continues

When Pipa thought about the possibility of closing the registration for the competition, she ran at the front of the team. Xiaozhi, who wanted to treat the Pokémon injured in the previous battle, ran second in the team. Xiaoqing and Tiremeow Followed by.

When approaching the Pokémon Center, Piper's sight was blocked by her hanging hair. Because she was too nervous, she accidentally passed by someone walking out of the Pokémon Center.

Piper yelled embarrassedly after accidentally knocking someone down.

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry. Xiaozhi, please help me check if the other party is okay!"

With that said, Pipa plunged into the green communication area of ​​the Pokémon Center like an arrow, and signed up on the screen in front of "Interrijun".

Xiaozhi came later and said to the person who was knocked down by Pipa while running.

"Sorry, my friend! My companion has something urgent to deal with, so..."

After saying that, Xiaozhi also came to the other party, stretched out his hand to let the other party grab his hand, and then pulled the other party up... After seeing the other party's appearance, Xiaozhi said in surprise.

"It's you..., Dunzi! Long time no see!"

After Xiaoqing and Tiremiao from the rear of the team arrived, Xiaoqing also recognized Dunzi and was about to say hello, but he was panting and couldn't open his mouth.

Dunzi caressed Xiaoqing's back, trying to help her straighten her breathing.

"Don't be anxious, Xiaoqing. Let's catch your breath first. Why are you all so anxious?"

Xiaozhi immediately replied.

"Isn't this because there is a cooking competition held in "Freezer Town"? Piper was afraid that registration had closed. "

Dunzi said in hindsight.

"So it's Pipa who just flashed past and knocked me down?"

As soon as Dunzi finished speaking, Pipa ran out and apologized.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..., I was afraid of the deadline for registration, I'm sorry..."

When Pipa came closer and found out that the man was Dunzi, he was overjoyed.

"Yo! It turns out to be Dunzi,...so you also plan to participate in this cooking competition?"

After watching Pipa complete the registration, Xiaozhi couldn't wait to let Miss Joy treat Olinio and Flaming Leg Locust.

Pipa and the others continued to communicate outside the Pokémon Center. Dunzi nodded and answered Pipa's words.

"Of course, since you are actively abiding by our duel agreement, Pipa, I will forgive you for bumping into me. It would be hard to say if it were anyone else... and how many of you have on hand?" "Taste Badge"? To be honest, I already have two, and I just need the last badge to register for the final cooking competition! "

Piper replied.

“‘Taste Badge’? Like you, I also have two, but this last one is missing. "

As soon as Pipa finished speaking, the smell of gunpowder smoke from both sides became thicker, and the drama of the previous cooking showdown that decided the winner was played out again.

At this moment, Xiaozhi walked out of the Pokémon Center behind everyone. It was then that he saw a pink Pokémon playing with Pikachu and Tireme beside Dunzi. .

Xiaozhi walked up curiously and asked.

"Dunzi, is this your Pokémon? What kind of Pokémon is it..."

"Well! This is the new companion I met on the road of travel - the Skillful Blacksmith."

Xiaozhi opened Rotom's phone and inquired.

"Skillsmith, a hammer Pokémon, Fairy-type and Steel-type, the evolved form of Little Blacksmith."

"The Skillful Blacksmith is only female and lives in a place full of scraps of copper and iron. In order to test the strength of the hammer, it will beat each other fiercely with its partners. In order to make a big and strong hammer, it will attack Commander Cleaver. The group then collects the metal."

Dunzi immediately told Pipa.

"Pipa, let me tell you the truth here. I am going to use this child to participate in today's cooking competition. You should be careful!"

After talking for a while, Xiaoqing looked at the time and said.

"Okay, you have all signed up, so let's head towards the venue. I think the time is almost up!"

After everyone agreed to Xiao Qing's suggestion, they left the Pokémon Center together and headed towards the competition venue.

Just as they were leaving, Musashi and Guo Ranwen in disguise were in the green area of ​​the Pokémon Center. After filling out the registration form for the cooking competition, they sneakily poked their heads out of the Pokémon Center and watched Xiaozhi and the others. After walking away, he muttered.

"I didn't expect that Little Guitou and the others would also come to participate in this cooking competition. Fortunately, I asked Kojiro and Miaomiao to do some tricks, otherwise my rare opportunity to win would have been slipped away again..."

As he said that, Kojiro and Meowth, who were also in disguise, appeared from the side and suddenly spoke.

"Musashi, we got it nya!"

Musashi, who originally looked sinister, was startled by the sudden appearance of Kojiro and Meowth.

"Wow!... It scared me. Really, you just need to be better. Why did you suddenly show up and scare me?"

Faced with Musashi's groundless accusation, Kojiro and Meowth responded.

"Every time they ask us to do these heavy and tiring tasks, they still have the nerve to accuse us!"

"That's right, nya! Musashi, you are like this every time. You only know how to use your mouth to make Kojiro and I break our legs, nya!"

"what are you saying!"

Musashi immediately became furious, and after beating Kojiro and Meowth violently, he continued to give orders.

"I will go to the venue to report now. You continue to sneak into the backstage of the venue to ensure that my victory is foolproof!"

"Follow..., obey!"

With that said, Kojiro and Meowth turned around and headed towards the back door of the venue with their heads full of bags. The moment they left, Musashi seemed to see two gray-white baby Pokémon lying on Kojiro's back. Figure, just when Musashi thought he was dazzled and tried to take a closer look after rubbing his eyes, he found that Kojiro and Meowth had already left.

"What, they left..., no matter what, I will go to the competition to sing too!"

For a time, almost everyone in "Freezer Town" gathered at the venue, planning to watch the cooking competition.

Xiaozhi and Xiaoqing took their seats in the audience, and then the contestants entered. Paipa, Dunzi, and Musashi, who had transformed into Musashi Maria, entered slowly.

The opening ceremony before the competition officially began. As the host, Sweet naturally presided over the competition. After making similar opening remarks, he introduced the judges of the competition.

In addition to Ku Jinper of the Pokémon Cooking Club, who has never been absent from every event, and Stefley, the director of the conference affairs, Sweet also introduced them emphatically.

"As for the third judge of this competition, we originally planned to let Ms. Lem, the owner of the "Freezer Gym", participate, but she suddenly resigned because she had urgent matters to deal with. Therefore, with the consent of Mr. Savaro, one of the organizers, we decided to let Ms. Taime, who is also a teacher of "Orange & Grape Academy" and the former owner of "Freezer Gym", participate! "

When the suspenseful spotlight hit Taimu, people in the audience burst into enthusiastic cheers after seeing Taimu's appearance. Taimu waved to everyone, showing his still kind smile.

Xiaozhi and Xiaoqing who were present whispered to each other after feeling the cheers from the audience on the left and right at close range.

“I never expected that Taimu would be such a respectable celebrity in Freezer Town! "

At the same time, the competition was also narrated by host Sweet...

"...There are twenty contestants participating in this competition. The contestants will collaborate with a Pokémon assigned by them. The rules are to use the ingredients and cooking utensils provided by the venue. The theme is "Sour" and the cooking time is 30 minutes. , then the game begins!”

After Sweet announced the official start of the competition, all the participating Pokémon and their partner Pokémon came to the shelves on the left and right of the venue to select ingredients, and then got into the exciting cooking process.

After gathering the ingredients to be cooked, Pipa and her partner, Chili Pepper, stood in front of the cooking table, rolled up their sleeves and began to show off their skills.

Piper said to Chili Pepper.

"Henjili, your job is to help me watch the bread bases being heated, just be careful not to let them burn. Regarding this cooking competition with the theme of "Sour", the taste identification of tree fruits is very important. , Fortunately, when you and I were young, we collected a large number of tree fruits of different qualities in the woods for cooking experiments, and we accumulated such a wealth of information about the taste of various tree fruits."

Pepper then nodded, and Pipa continued to speak calmly.

"Regarding the cuisine with the theme of "Sour", this completely hits our wounds. Among the five flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, sour cuisine completely belongs to our comfort zone. Sour fruit trees like acidic soil, and the most suitable soil pH is The value is between 5.5-7.0... Coincidentally, the place where we stayed when we were young was a fruit forest on acidic soil, and acidic tree fruits such as "Bayar" grew in large numbers..."

Pipa continued to talk while cooking.

“As long as you make good use of the characteristics of the Baya fruit, the sourness should not be overheated, it should not be too crushed, and a small amount of saltiness is added to enhance the freshness... After simple cooking, its fragrance and flavor can be greatly enhanced. "

Just as Pipa explained this, after trying the filling of the "Bayar" sandwich she made, she was dumbfounded...

"No..., this is impossible! Why is it sweet..."

After Pipa tasted the sweet "baya fruit", she immediately went to the cooking shelves to look for other tree fruits. The strange thing was that whether it was "baya fruit" or other tree fruits, whether it was sweet, bitter, spicy or salty tree The fruits are uniformly sweet.

Just when Pipa looked at the other players around him in confusion, he found that some players noticed it, and some players didn't. Some of the players who noticed the change, together with Dunzi, also came out to check other tree fruits like Pipa. Except for the fruits of the trees present, they taste cloyingly sweet.

Just when Pipa was confused, she discovered that there were several needle holes in the "Bayar Fruit" in her hand, and the sweet "sweetness" flowed out from the needle holes...

"This! This is..."

In the direction of the backstage of the venue, Kojiro, Miao Miao and Guo Ranweng poked their heads to look at the competition venue, and whispered proudly.

"Hehe, there's no need to look for it, nya. All the ingredients at the venue have been injected with "sweetness" using syringes. Except for the fruit that Musashi had on hand, all the other ingredients have been tampered with by us. These "sweets" were obtained with great difficulty from the three bees, and many of them were attacked by them, ah meow! "

Kojiro said after taking out a cloth bag.

"And the fruits we have in our hands. It's rare to see so many delicious ones. We can't take too much, right?"

With that said, when Kojiro was about to put his hand into the cloth bag, Miaomiao and Guoranweng squeezed past him first, put their hands in and took out the fruit... Kojiro said with an aggrieved look.

"Wait, Meow Meow, sure enough! I worked so hard to carry this bag of tree fruits here. You should let me taste it first!"

Miao Miao and Guoran Weng ignored Kojiro and said after taking out a huge tree fruit.

"That won't work. As the saying goes, you have quick hands but slow hands don't. If you want to blame it, it's because you moved too slowly!"

Just when they were about to feast, they saw two gray-white mouse Pokémon lying on the berries held by Meowth and Guoran respectively, opening their big mouths to greedily eat the two berries. .

After Miao Miao and Guoran Weng saw each other clearly, they questioned.

"What kind of Pokémon are you! You can't steal our Team Rocket's food without permission, meow!"

"Sonans..."

Just when the two of them raised their hands to teach the two Pokémon a lesson, they saw the two Pokémon getting close to their faces and slapping Meowth and Guo Ranweng in the face with their large palms. After a while, they were slapped several times by each other and fell to the ground with serious injuries.

The two tree fruits that they were still eating also fell to the ground during their attack. After becoming dirty, the two Pokémon still came to the tree fruits without dissatisfaction.

Kojiro behind him looked at them lovingly and said softly.

"Where did you come from..."

Facing Kojiro's sudden inquiry, the two Pokémon were nervous and looked at him warily. Their bodies did not forget to protect themselves tightly in front of the two soiled fruits, confronting Kojiro.

"Zhushu! Shushu!"

Kojiro didn't dislike them. He took out a clean tree fruit from his cloth bag, handed it to them, and said.

"The fruits behind you are dirty, so don't eat them. I still have clean fruits here, so just eat what I have!"

After the two Pokémon saw the round and delicate tree fruit in Kojiro's hand, they suddenly opened their big mouths and screamed with joy and shock.

"Zhushu..."
