Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

Even the gem collector Steven Stone hadn't heard of this kind of stone, which Guangtai found棘手 (棘手 means tricky or thorny).

Although Giratina said that if he couldn't find this kind of stone, ordinary stones would also work, Guangtai still felt that he should meet the customer's requirements, especially since it was Giratina!

If he could build a good relationship, he could go to the Reverse World to harvest materials every day in the future. Moreover, as a descendant of the gods, Giratina also had a psychic link with him. Rounding it off, wouldn't the other party be considered his friend?

Meanwhile, Steven was muttering, saying that he hadn't heard of that stone having any meaning of gratitude, but perhaps prayer was another form of gratitude?

"It seems that I can only ask Regirock. I've also heard about the stone in Lilycove City. It's said to be a very strange rock, but I don't think it's the White Stone of Gratitude."

Guangtai decided to pass this question to another "gem excavator"!

"Regirock..." Steven's expression changed slightly, and he tentatively asked, "Speaking of which, I've been wondering about this for a while now. You can obtain ancient rocks from Regirock and also obtain the legendary giant's unique moves. Even my friend hasn't seen these moves. Just what is the deal with Regirock here..."

"Ah, due to some unexpected circumstances, Regirock woke up from its slumbering rock mountain ruins. Its temple collapsed severely, so it found me and hoped I could help repair it. In fact, I'm planning to set off to repair the ruins immediately after I finish entertaining you."

"Maybe you and Regirock will have a lot to talk about. The Regirock I encountered is also very good at excavating rare stones. Actually, this second Eviolite was excavated by it."

As Guangtai spoke, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Mr. Stone, do you also have research on ruins?"

Although the best helper when it comes to ruins should be Cynthia, Steven also deals with many ruins when he excavates ores in the wild, so perhaps Steven has some special suggestions on ruin restoration.

Although Guangtai himself has mastered the three major crafts of ruin restoration, he hasn't actually practiced them, so he plans to listen to Steven's suggestions.

"Rock Mountain Ruins...!" Curiosity and thought brewed in Steven's eyes.

He didn't expect that Regirock here would actually take the initiative to communicate with humans. This is different from the Regirock he knew!

In his somewhat vague and strange memories, he seemed to have met the Regi trio, but that memory was too vague and unclear. It was possibly some delusion that arose after seeing Mr. Shindai's Regirock... Steven thought so.

He didn't expect that Regirock would have such useful things as ancient rocks. Mr. Shindai didn't tell him about it, perhaps he didn't even know it himself.

Moreover, the Regirock here is actually very good at excavating stones!

Eviolite, another Eviolite!

Steven's eyes became a little eager: "I really want to meet this Regirock!"

"Also, please be sure to let me participate in the maintenance of the Rock Mountain Ruins!"

As expected, when it came to excavating stones, Steven couldn't stop. He began to talk to Guangtai about the formation of various evolution stones.

Guangtai also often excavates ores in the wild, and from his type of work, he can also be regarded as a "Mountain Man". In his conversation with Steven, Guangtai felt that his knowledge was increasing rapidly, and it was constantly being added to, giving rise to new knowledge!

『You have received guidance from a professional rock collector and gained advanced petrology knowledge!』

『Advanced petrology knowledge helps to strengthen your craftsmanship, and crafts related to rocks have been enhanced!』

Guangtai's eyes lit up!

Steven's rock knowledge, Get☆Daze!

Having in-depth exchanges with professional scholars and craftsmen who possess advanced knowledge can allow one to better understand their knowledge content and transform it into one's own knowledge, and even extend it further!

The sky outside gradually darkened. While Guangtai was talking with Steven, he suddenly remembered an important thing and quickly asked:

"...Although there are no clues about the White Stone of Gratitude, does Mr. Stone know any Berry Masters?"

"In fact, I'm worried about a special material and am thinking about whether there is anyone who can help, preferably a master who has experience in cultivating trees..."

As Guangtai spoke, he took out the "Golden Leaf" and "Silver Leaf". When Steven saw these two leaves, he fell into deep thought again.

More things he hadn't seen before!

Even though he was someone who often worked in the wild, he had never seen similar items.

"These two leaves look very beautiful. So, are you looking for trees that can grow these two kinds of leaves?"

Steven took the two leaves. When he touched them in his hand, his gaze became slightly solemn. The touch of these two leaves was not like leaves at all. They were soft and tough, more like cloth, and the luster was close to metal.

Guangtai: "These are leaves that can be found in the Kanto and Johto regions. Honestly, similar fallen leaves can occasionally be found among many trees, but what kind of tree can completely grow these two kinds of leaves is currently a mystery."

"So I plan to have some exchanges with some tree planting masters to see if they have any experience in cultivating special trees. I can occasionally find this kind of leaf in the fruit trees I cultivate. I'm wondering what kind of tree should be used as a base to better plant these leaves..."

Steven smiled and put away the leaves: "Although it's not a mineral, rare materials also interest me quite a bit. These leaves seem to be an important material, right? In that case, as a partner, I will of course do my best to help you."

"That's right, these two leaves are indeed materials for two important items." Guangtai handed out two certificates: "Focus Sash and Weakness Policy, their effects are..."

After hearing the effects of these two items, the smile on Steven's face immediately disappeared and became very serious.

"Such powerful effects! In that case, I must ask the Berry Master to do his best to cultivate and research these two leaves! Devon Corporation will also mobilize resources for additional cultivation experiments!"

At first, he only thought that these were relatively rare shining leaves, but he didn't expect that they could be made into incredible items. Steven realized the value of these leaves. If Devon, no, if the Hoenn region could cultivate these two trees first...!

By mastering the production materials of special items, the Hoenn region would become a popular battle region and receive investment from companies and enterprises from other regions, as well as the league!

This is very beneficial for the somewhat rural Hoenn League!

"The Hoenn region has a warm climate and fertile land. No region is more suitable for cultivating special plants than Hoenn!"

Steven already had some plans in his heart. Although he himself was not an expert in planting, he knew many experts in this technology in the Hoenn region!

"Regi--"

A voice came from outside the workshop. When he heard this shout, even Steven immediately knew - he had heard the same voice from Mr. Shindai. Without a doubt, it was Regirock!

Outside the workshop, Steven's Metagross was looking at the returning giant with puzzled eyes.

A legendary giant? I've seen it before with another trainer. I didn't expect to see it here again... Eh? What are you doing?

Regirock touched Metagross's body, and the H character on its face flickered violently!

Yo, you're developing well, almost like my brother Registeel!

Metagross: "."

The Pokémon in this workshop are all perverts?

"Regirock! You and Turtwig are back..." Guangtai and Steven walked out of the workshop. Unown heard that Guangtai didn't call it, and immediately floated over and shook, indicating that it had also returned!

"Okay, okay, Unown is back too." Guangtai smiled, and Unown E became happy!

That's right, you can't just look at those two guys. I also put in a lot of effort today!

"You guys have serious injuries. Weren't you going to train?" Guangtai looked at Lilligant in confusion. Lilligant also shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.

At this time, there were many cracks on Regirock's body, and many stones were missing, but it didn't seem to care. Turtwig's body was even more scarred, but the herbs on its back were not damaged.

"Na!" Turtwig and Regirock looked at each other and smiled.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ novel ⊥ is ⊥ first ⊥ published ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥!

They really did different training today!

Unown created powerful Pokémon to help them, and fortunately, they didn't lose control, right!

"You're all injured, hurry up and get repaired!" Guangtai quickly took out the herbal juice, as well as various maintenance tools and maintenance tools, as well as Revival Herbs and wound medicine. The Pokémon stood in place waiting for Guangtai's "maintenance". Steven was very interested in the new medicines that Guangtai took out.

"This is..."

Guangtai: "My special herbal juice can restore the Pokémon's stamina and eliminate hidden old injuries and diseases in their bodies. The champion of the Unova region bought this medicine from me before. If you need it, there is still a lot of herbal juice."

Under Steven's gaze, after Turtwig drank the herbal juice, the injuries on its body gradually disappeared. The speed at which these injuries disappeared was faster than the spray-type "Hyper Potion", almost comparable to "Full Restore"!

However, according to Guangtai's description, Full Restore can't eliminate old injuries in Pokémon's bodies! Steven's eyes couldn't help but look at Metagross.

His Metagross had been with him since he was a child and had experienced many battles. It had also suffered some serious injuries, but fortunately his friend Wallace was a top breeder, so he was able to restore his old friend.

Speaking of which, he had been a little neglectful of this old friend recently.

"Sorry, Metagross."

"Meido?" Metagross looked at Steven in confusion, but found that Steven's eyes had changed.

It was like... returning to many years ago, when Steven looked at him, it was like this too.

"Meido." Metagross seemed to understand the meaning of Steven's words.

There is no need to apologize. As a champion, you have your own things to do. Pursuing strength is your essence and what you should do.

Steven's expression was a little complicated, stroking Metagross's claws. Old friends once again confided in each other at this moment.

Then, Steven looked at the scarred Regirock.

Regirock was also staring at Steven at this time, the H symbol on its face flashing.

So that's it, Guangtai is waiting for this handsome guy?

However, he has the aura of rocks on him.

"Regi?"

Regirock suddenly took the initiative to speak, Steven was slightly stunned, Guangtai listened for a while, and explained to Steven:

"Regirock is saying, could it be that you also like to excavate stones like it? You have a strong aura of different kinds of rocks on you."

"Eh? You can understand Pokémon's words?!" Steven was taken aback!

From the beginning to now, Guangtai had not shown this ability!

Moreover, Regirock's language is different from normal Pokémon. The other Pokémon can't understand what Mr. Shindai's Regirock says!

"I am a psychic, I can understand the words of Ghost Pokémon, and at the same time, due to some special reasons, I can also understand the language of ancient Pokémon. Regirock's language is like the language of different regions among us humans, or dialects, so many Pokémon have some difficulty communicating with them."

Guangtai smiled, and Steven, in addition to being surprised, also heard Regirock's voice.

"Ah, this is saying..." Guangtai's expression was a little strange.

Regirock had not forgotten its previous idea, and now, it seemed that after seeing Steven, it was a little excited.

As expected, Stand users (×). Excavation users (√) will attract each other!

"It's asking if you have any special stones. It also has some stones. If you can exchange them..." Guangtai said helplessly:

"Regirock said before that after the Rock Mountain Ruins are repaired, it wants to turn the ruins into a place where Pokémon can trade things with each other, just like my workshop. Perhaps it's because my Regirock once lived with the ancient people of the Sinnoh region, so its behavior is closer to humans, so it has this idea."

Steven's expression was very surprised, looking at Regirock as if he saw a close friend!

It's different from the "Regirock" in his vague memory and the Regirock that Mr. Shindai owns! This Sinnoh Regirock... really gets along with him!

"By the way, do you know the White Stone of Gratitude?" Guangtai asked Regirock, and after the H character on Regirock's face flickered:

"Shashalili--"

It's saying that although it doesn't know what the Stone of Gratitude is, it has seen white stones near the garden of Gracidea flowers it mentioned before, around the tombs of the ancient people of Sinnoh!
