Pokémon the Movie: The Journey of a Slate

"So... you want to learn how to cook from me?" Diamond asked Eslo in front of him seriously. It hadn't been long since Pal slapped him in the face, but at this moment, Diamond's swollen face had returned to normal, even Eslo was surprised.

"It's not cooking, it's just... desserts, like small cakes or boffins." Aislo explained aloud. After all, he only knew the oldest cooking method of mankind - barbecue.

It is quite difficult to expect Aislo, a novice in cooking, to improve his cooking skills to a level that is edible or even delicious in a short period of time. So if you want to give Mary a surprise, desserts are more practical.

"Dessert..." Pal raised his head, still thinking about the slap he had just received. He looked at Eslo with a strange look in his eyes. Diamond seemed to have told him that Mary went to Naxue to learn something...

Hiss...what's going on with these two people? Pal secretly complained in his heart.

"Oh." Diamond didn't pay much attention to it. After standing up and picking up his space backpack, he said to the two, "Follow me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Diamond walked out, followed by Aislo and Pal. While walking, Diamond did not forget to stuff some food into his mouth, and so did Abhi beside his legs.

The three of them circled around in the Pokémon Center. Aislo looked at Diamond, who was leading the way, with some confusion, then winked at Pal.

Aisiluo: Where is Daiya taking us?

After receiving the signal, Pal also blinked in response.

Pal: I don't know.

Aislo turned his head away silently, but his curiosity was burning more and more vigorously.

Finally, Diamond paused, and in front of them was a clean and tidy white door. Diamond pushed the door open and walked in. After looking at each other, Aislo and Pal followed him in side by side.

As soon as they entered the door, what caught their eyes were many high-tech stoves. Not far from the stove area, there were various machines on display. Some of those machines had complex structures, while others were simple and clear, but their common feature was that they were obviously valuable at first glance.

"Is this... a kitchen?" Pal was a little unsure. After traveling for so long, this was the first time he heard of a place like a kitchen in a Pokémon Center.

"Is there a kitchen in the Pokémon Center?" Eslo just felt a little surprised, after all, he had not traveled to many cities yet.

"Well, this is a place in the Pokémon Center specifically for coordinating trainers or other practitioners. The machines in the distance can make Pokémon or energy cubes and the like." Diamond explained to the two people behind him, and at the same time gestured to Aislo to walk towards the place where the machines were placed.

After arriving at the place, Diamond pulled over three chairs and motioned for the two to sit down, then he took out a book from his space backpack and handed it to Aislo.

"Since we want to learn how to make desserts, let's start with the simpler Boffins. The most important thing to pay attention to when making Boffins is the proportions of the various fruits and ingredients." Diamond explained his intention. "This book records the recipes of various Boffins, as well as various key points and the production process. Xiao Luo, take a look first."

Pofen, a dessert that can't really be considered a dessert, is mostly made by coordinator trainers and fed to their own Pokémon to improve the Pokémon's stats in order to get high scores in the Pokémon Contest. However, with the development of technology and the times, many Pofen that are more suitable for human consumption have now been derived.

Aislo nodded seriously, took the book, and then opened the table of contents and began to read.

"Hey, why does this book look so much like a copy of the Boffin's Notes you made?" Pal whispered to Diamond.

"That's it." After confirming Pal's guess, Diamond took out a diary from his space backpack. However, unlike the one in Eslo's hand, this diary looked older and the technical content was slightly different.

"Why did you suddenly find this thing?" Pal opened his eyes wide in surprise as he looked at the familiar cover. To be honest, he hadn't seen this diary for a long time.

The diary in Diamond's hand at this time is called "Pal and Diamond's Notebook", which is also a proof of their friendship. From recording funny jokes in the past to recording Pokémon battle skills later, this small notebook can be said to have witnessed the growth of these two Pokémon encyclopedia holders.

"I really miss it. Do you remember the creases you left on the notebook when you and I were fighting over it?" Diamond turned to one of the pages and looked at Pal with a resentful expression.

[Page 327, Agui's Leaf Blade Training - Diamond's Notes]

There was a clear crease on the paper that was filled with words.

"Haha... isn't this what I wanted to use too~" Pal scratched his head awkwardly, and then saw Diamond continue to flip through the pages.

[Page 359, Aaron's Absolute Barrier Training - Diamond's Notes]

[Page 423, Tyroyan's Savage Charge - Pal's Chronicle]

[Page 536, Summary of the Battle with Akin - Pal and Diamond]

[Page 542, Summary of the Total War with Green (crossed out) One-sided beating - Pal and Diamond's Notes]

Diamond did not stop what he was doing until he turned to the last page.

[Page 612, The Battle Before Archie Fell Asleep - Diamond's Notes]

"Are you still thinking about Archie?" Pal asked softly when he saw the familiar name.

"No." Diamond shook his head slightly. "I just wanted to say that I used the last page of this notebook. We need to prepare a new one."

"..."

"..."

“Dia, you bastard!” Pal rode directly on Diamond’s legs, grabbed the boy’s collar and shook him back and forth. “After finishing this notebook, such a solemn moment should be recorded by the two of us together! Bastard!”

"I forgot." Diamond shook the notebook in his hand helplessly. He really didn't think about it carefully at that time. Seeing that there was only one page left in the notebook, he just used it directly.

"Ah——" Pal made a sharp explosion.

"Uh... that." Aislo raised his hand weakly at this time, attracting the attention of Diamond and Pal, "I have finished reciting it."

As soon as Aislo finished his words, before Pal could react, Diamond stood up in shock and threw Pal to the ground, his listless eyes widening.

"What? You've finished memorizing it?!" Diamond almost teleported in front of Eslo, their cheeks less than five centimeters apart.

"Hmm..." Aislo nodded weakly as he looked at Diamond's incredulous gaze.

"..."
