Pokémon: Master Pokémon has a fish-frying system.

After handing in his paper early, Lu An quickly ran back to his bed, took a nice nap, and then had lunch with Gangjie and Imai, who had just gotten up. They arrived at the department building on time.

Huizi was already waiting in the professional building, and beside her, a giant green onion duck was waving its green onion with great pride.

"Gah!"

When the giant green onion duck saw Lu An, it waved its green onion at him with a slightly provocative look in its eyes.

Clearly, when the giant green onion duck was cleaned last time, it had already memorized Lu An's appearance.

However, Lu An ignored its provocation.

Inedible scallions and scallion ducks are soulless.

How did the exam go this morning?

Lu An exchanged a few pleasantries.

Huizi scratched her braided hair that she had just finished wearing:

"It was quite difficult, but I managed to solve most of them in the end, except for one question that I just couldn't figure out."

Which question?

"It's the third fill-in-the-blank question, which Pokémon is Grass/Fighting and is also a Field-type Egg Pokémon."

Huizi tugged at her braid in distress:

"I have a vague recollection of it, but I just can't remember what that Pokémon was called."

"Oh, that question? The answer to that question is Bricaron, one of the Grass-type starter Pokémon from the Kalos region."

Lu An quickly remembered which question Hui Zi had mentioned and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

Sometimes it's not entirely Keiko's fault for not being able to think of the answer. There are countless Pokémon in the world, and some Pokémon are relatively obscure. If it's in a specific question, it's indeed difficult for people to think of its name immediately.

Some people might wonder, since Bricaron is one of the starter Pokémon in the Kalos region, how could it be considered an unpopular Pokémon?

It's probably just because Keiko is from the Kanto region and isn't very familiar with the knowledge of Kalos Pokémon.

To this, Lu An could only chuckle.

Perhaps Keiko couldn't figure out that Bricaron is a Grass/Fighting type of Ground-type Egg Pokémon; it's true that she lacks knowledge.

However, it's not an exaggeration to say that Bricaron is an unpopular Pokémon.

Huizi is a native of Kanto and has never even left the Kanto Alliance, but Lu An is different; he has carried out missions in Carlos.

In the Kalos region, if you take a walk on a commercial street, you will almost certainly see a lively Fennekin jumping on a trainer's shoulder, or a quiet Greninja following behind a trainer.

But you can hardly see a single Bricaron.

If you randomly pick ten passersby in Carlos, almost five of them will not know who the Grass Lord of Carlos is.

There's another fun thing about Bricaron.

That was a survey released a year ago by an unofficial organization in Carlos—"The Most Popular Starter Pokémon in the World Today".

This ranking list includes a total of 26 candidate starter Pokémon from nine leagues.

So some people asked, shouldn't there be 27 starter Pokémon from the nine leagues (Water, Fire, and Grass)? Why are there only 26 options?

That's because this unofficial organization in Kalos forgot about a Grass-type Starter Pokémon named "Bricaron".

That's the value of a Bricaron.

It's a disgrace to the three starter brands.

So it's normal that Huizi couldn't remember its name.

Lu An patted Hui Zi on the shoulder: "This isn't your problem, it's that Teacher You, who set the questions, is too cunning."

After saying that, Lu An subconsciously glanced back.

There was no teacher behind me.

"call."

Lu An let out a sigh of relief. Despite his sharp tongue, Teacher You's appearance behind him this morning was quite unsettling. Luckily, he didn't show up this time, otherwise it would have been too underhanded.

Lu An decided to stop thinking about Teacher You: "What's the exam this afternoon?"

"Energy Cube Crafting".

Hui Zi rolled her eyes at Lu An, her freckles seeming to fly off her cheeks:

"You don't even know what the afternoon exam is about? Aren't you being a little too careless?"

Lu An scratched his head nonchalantly, about to make a complaint, but suddenly stopped and cautiously looked back.

There was no teacher behind me.

"Hmph, it's just an energy cube. Either way, I can still pass the level."

Huizi covered her mouth and chuckled softly:

"What? Did Teacher You from this morning leave you with a psychological trauma? Judging from your attitude this morning, I thought you didn't care at all."

Lu An curled his lip:

"It's better to avoid trouble than to cause more."

After saying that, Lu An looked at Huizi curiously:

"Speaking of which, I still don't know what the exam format will be this afternoon. Is it going to be about making energy cubes and then the teacher grading them?"

Huizi shook her head:

“Several senior students in our major are also members of the exploration club. When I chatted with them, I asked them about it, and they said it’s not that simple.”

Lu An became somewhat interested: "So, how is the exam conducted?"

At this moment, Keiko playfully stuck out a finger and wagged it:

"Tsk tsk tsk, someone who never attends classes, never does homework, and only finds out the exam content right before the exam, now wants to pry out this kind of confidential information from me?"

"I absolutely cannot tell you anything!"

After Huizi finished speaking, the giant green onion duck next to her also waved its green onion in a show of defiance:

"Gah!"

Lu An was both amused and exasperated, never expecting that Hui Zi would have such a hobby of keeping things a secret.

If it were an ordinary boy, he would probably be begging Keiko to tell him by now.

Ta-ga!

As a "sigma man," Lu An would never bow down to a woman so easily!

In the blink of an eye, so short that the farfalle duck didn't even have time to react, it found that the farfalle it was waving had disappeared.

"Gah!"

The giant green onion duck looked over in surprise, only to see Lu An casually waving a large green onion in his hand:

"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. We'll just deal with whatever comes our way."

"By the way, I quite like green onions, Keiko. Do you think it would taste even better if I added some green onions when making energy cubes?"

"Wow, just thinking about it makes my mouth water."

As Lu An spoke, he held the scallion horizontally to his nose and sniffed it, then closed his eyes in rapture.

"Gagaga ...

The big green onion duck panicked and tugged hard at Huizi's clothes, signaling her to help it get it back.

Those are duck leeks!!!

Huizi was both amused and exasperated.

"This afternoon, Natsume-sensei will bring several rental Pokémon. We need to determine the personalities and dietary preferences of the rental Pokémon in a short time, and then make Energy Cubes."

"If the rented Pokémon doesn't like eating the Energy Cubes you make, you'll get a lower score, and vice versa."

Lu An smiled slightly:

"You should have said so earlier. Looks like I need to add some green onions to the Power Cubes. I guarantee all Pokémon will love it."

"Gah! Gah gah gah gah!"

Transformed into a giant green onion, I risk my life to reclaim everything I have! Meteor Duck Strike!

"Gah!"
