Description: Let me see if this human is on the right track! — Taillow.
Kawaki: "…"
He immediately noticed the word 'Thief' in Taillow's moveset.
A Taillow that knows Thief…?
What had Taillow gone through during this time to have learned both Swagger and Thief…?
Kawaki felt a bit conflicted.
The Taillow on the windowsill immediately noticed the new food in the human's hand. Its eyes suddenly sharpened, staring unblinkingly at the small, sugar-cube-like blocks.
The smell… was surprisingly good!
Kawaki naturally noticed Taillow's gaze. He looked down at the Energy Cubes in his hand and then asked:
"Want to eat?"
Taillow stared at him.
"If you want to eat, fly over," Kawaki said with a smile. He paused, then added, "These are specially prepared for you. It's just that you haven't come for a long time, so I've kept them for you until now. Come and eat quickly!"
Upon hearing these words, Taillow suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
It had been going to other humans' places to scrounge for food and drinks before…
Because the food at other humans' places was tastier.
Today, that family was nowhere to be found, which was why it had returned here, planning to grab a quick, passable meal.
Unexpectedly, this human had been waiting for it all this time and had even specially saved food for it.
"Chirp…" A complex feeling welled up in Taillow's heart.
However, since this human wanted it to come over, it would make some time to visit a few times in the future!
Thinking this, Taillow's movements didn't stop. It flew forward, picked up an Energy Cube, and ate it.
A fragrant taste immediately exploded in its mouth, far more delicious than the berries it had eaten before!
Delicious!
Taillow began to eat diligently.
Kawaki stood by, watching this scene without batting an eye, while also observing Taillow's emotions.
Sure enough, upon hearing his words, Taillow's emotions began to change continuously.
Friendship began to rise, from 20 to 50.
Joyfulness also started to increase, especially rapidly and noticeably when it ate the Energy Cube, directly jumping from 20 to 80.
It was clear that the child had never eaten anything good before.
Even an ordinary quality Energy Cube could make it this happy.
At the same time, a familiar piece of information appeared before Kawaki's eyes.
Taillow's mood increased, Joyfulness +60, obtained Taillow's gift: "A Piece of Information 3".
Taillow revealed a piece of information 3 to you: That Pokémon likes to eat apple pie. She and her brother often appear silently where there is apple pie, eat it, and then sneak away. If you can make Taillow happier, perhaps it will reveal more information about that Pokémon to you.
Information about the legendary Pokémon Latias and Latios appeared again!
Kawaki immediately focused his attention, carefully reviewing this information.
Likes to eat apple pie…
Latias likes to eat apple pie? And she and her brother Latios often appear silently where there is apple pie to secretly eat it?
So, the question is, if he makes a batch of apple pies, can he attract Latias and Latios?
The difficulty is probably not low.
Currently, Kawaki has obtained two pieces of information.
Information 1: In the northern part of the Hoenn region, there is a Pokémon that can transform into a human.
Information 2: That Pokémon lives with her brother. They have no fixed abode and roam the skies of the Hoenn land all day long.
Plus this piece of information 3…
Although it sounds like a lot, it actually doesn't reveal too much information.
The Hoenn land is vast. The probability of Latios and Latias coming to the Breeding House by following the scent of apple pie is probably no less than fishing and catching Kyogre.
However, new information is always better than none.
At least he knew Latias's preference. If they could meet later, wouldn't he be able to completely charm Latias by bringing out a large pile of delicious apple pies?
Thinking of this, Kawaki looked at the Taillow in front of him. Clearly, this Taillow had seen Latias and Latios.
At this moment, Taillow had finished eating the Energy Cube and was preening the feathers on its wings with its beak.
The small sun above its head indicated that it was in a very joyful mood at this moment.
That expression was as if to say: Shoveler, I am very satisfied with today's meal!
Kawaki smiled at Taillow and asked, "Are you coming tomorrow? I still have a lot of Energy Cubes here."
"Chirp!"
Taillow let out a clear cry. Come? Of course, it would come!
"Then we have a deal," Kawaki smiled slightly.
Taillow thought to itself that this human was quite eager for it to come!
It looked at Kawaki for a while, then turned around, flapped its wings, and flew away directly.
Kawaki watched Taillow leave, thinking that sure enough, sometimes well-intentioned lies were very necessary.
Although it was a lie, it did not harm Taillow.
He got information about a legendary Pokémon, and Taillow got Energy Cubes—what a perfect arrangement!
There were no apples in the Breeding House at the moment, so there was no way to make apple pie.
However, Kawaki was not in a hurry. In the future, he would surely be able to get more information about Latias and Latios from this Taillow.
"Excuse me!"
At this moment, a timid voice came from behind him.
Kawaki turned around and saw a dirty, disheveled young girl looking at him expectantly.
"Excuse me, can I stay here?" the girl asked.
A guest for the inn?
"Of course," Kawaki welcomed the person into the house and said, "Please come in, you can complete your check-in here."
The girl looked around, her gaze resting on the small blackboard on the wall. Then, she pulled out a few alliance coins from her pocket, placed them on the table, and said:
"I want to stay for three days."
"Three days?" Kawaki was slightly startled. Staying for so long?
Since the Breeding House opened, no guest had ever stayed here for more than two days!
Most of the guests who came here were Trainers passing by. They would spend one night here and then head to the next town early the next morning.
The girl looked as if she wanted to say something but didn't. She just nodded: "Yes, three days!"
"Alright, your room is 201, just turn left after going up the stairs. The inn also provides dining services, so if you need anything, you can come here and tell me," Kawaki didn't ask further but began to introduce the Breeding House.
"Okay, okay!"
Watching the girl go upstairs, Kawaki couldn't help but mutter, "What a strange fellow."
