In a top-notch restaurant with elegant decoration on Winter Avenue in Miare City, Zhimi was wearing a chef's white shirt, frowned slightly, and said:
"It's such a small thing, don't disturb me from researching new dishes."
"However, this time it is jointly organized by the Miare Chamber of Commerce, and even the Shirley Hotel participates in the event. It is a precious publicity opportunity...Chef Zhimi, do you really not think about it anymore?" the agent persuaded.
"There is no need to participate."
The bottom of the pot was sizzling and the butter was melting. Zhimi held the pan and said calmly: "Compared to publicity, there is a higher realm waiting for me to explore... that is the art of cooking."
Beside Zhimi, an octopus bucket was tied to a kitchen knife with its tentacles, cutting carrots on the chopping board. There was also a shrimp with a steel cannon arm, opening its large lobster claws, and using the water jetted from its claws to clean the wild apples.
The manager looked at the back of Zhimi's white robe. The chef and his Pokémon had an orderly division of labor. Although they were cooking, it looked like an artistic picture.
Zhimi is known as the "Legendary Chef" and is a king in the field of Pokémon battle.
If anyone can compete with Zhimi...
The agent thought for a moment and then spoke again:
"Chef Zhimi, there is a very special guest at this food festival, you should be interested."
"Who? The Pokémon bartender in Hezhong, or the special chef in Alola?" Zhimi stirred the bottom of the soup pot and asked calmly.
Hezhong's chefs are famous for their "fine wine" and Alola's chefs are famous for their unique island flavors.
Zhimi has competed with chefs from various regions and knows their styles well.
"It's from Donghuang...er...a former champion. It is said that he is the current special chef, Mr. Lu Ye."
clang!
Octopus Barrel stopped chopping vegetables, Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp closed its pincers, the manager was slightly startled, and the three of them looked at Zhimi at the same time.
This ‘legendary chef’ actually dropped his spoon and hit it on the wall of the pot with a crisp sound!
Zhimi was calm and unfazed. He picked up a handkerchief and wiped his hands. He turned around and saw a rare trace of enthusiasm in his eyes.
The agent said in a daze: "Chef Zhimi..."
"Announcing the participation of Zhimi Restaurant, Jupiter."
Zhimi's eyes are sharp and the corners of his mouth are slowly raised. This shows his admiration for the "champion chef" and his excitement for exploring higher culinary fields.
Teacher Lu, let us set off a cooking showdown worthy of art!
…
South side street, colorful coffee shop.
"Come on, I've been waiting for a long time, Pikachu pudding and egg omelet rice~"
The handsome young store manager held the plate in his hand, and with the little girl's glowing eyes, he handed the bouncy pudding and the omelette rice with ketchup to the table.
"I'm going to start!" the little girl said loudly.
"I really bother you..." the little girl's father said with some fear: "You actually serve the food yourself..."
It's hard to believe that the manager of this mysterious coffee shop that requires reservations is actually the league champion.
Even if you go to Zhimi Restaurant to dine, the impact it brings is not as strong as the scene in front of you.
"No way." Lu Ye said with a smile: "Seeing the smiles of the guests when the food is served, for a chef, there is nothing happier than this."
"Yeah, haha..." The man sighed cautiously but smiled.
"Well, excuse me."
Lu Ye bowed slightly and turned back to the kitchen. Frosty Milk Fairy was cooking desserts. When he saw Lu Ye coming in silently, he was startled.
"咿四!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ"
"Don't panic, it's me. I'll be able to rest in a quarter of an hour." Lu Ye said with a smile.
"咒嗛…"
The Cream Fairy put her hand on her chest, her strawberry-colored body seemed to be flowing with cream, exuding a sweet fragrance that made people want to take a bite.
Lu Ye pursed his lips and said, "Fairy Frost Milk, I want to discuss something with you."
"Eh?"
"Next time you use your own cream to make a dessert, I will help you evaluate it." Lu Ye said seriously.
Cream Fairy's face was bright red, she wore a strawberry candy ornament on her pin, her crystal eyes were as bright as rubies, and she nodded shyly.
"咿,咿咛..."
Since it is to make better desserts...there is no other way...
It was almost noon, and the little girl held her father's hand and left. She turned back and waved, and said energetically: "Goodbye Gengar!"
"Kou Jie~" Geng Gui bared his teeth, stood on the ground with his chubby purple body, and waved carelessly.
Goodbye, come and play often!
Turning around, Gengar narrowed his scarlet eyes and became happy again: "Kou Jie~"
jingle bell
The crisp wind chimes are ringing.
The messenger bird carried its luggage and shook its head. Its hair was wet and its black eyes looked particularly bright: "Woo!"
Boss, I'm off work and come back for a staff meal!
"Lunch is already being made, let's take a break."
Lu Ye put his hands in his apron pockets, walked slowly towards the messenger bird, and poured a glass of iced lemonade for the little penguin.
The messenger bird first put down his bag and bowed, then held the lemonade in his two little hands and raised his head.
"Woo"
There was a moment of afternoon silence in the coffee shop, with only the whispers of the Pokémon. The sunlight passed through the glass display window and fell on the potted potted plants, the bar counter, and the wine storage cabinet.
Lu Ye stood behind the bar, leaning forward with his hands on his cheeks, staring at the Pokémon in front of him in trance.
Fairy Eevee with snow-white hair curled up on the brown sofa. A beam of sunlight happened to fall on it, and its sleeping face was gentle and pleasant.
Togepi was sitting on the back of Windspeed Dog lying on the ground, holding a game console.
Teacher Lu also bought a complete set of game equipment for Victini. Little V floated next to Togepi, concentrating on it.
The Water Arrow Turtle is in the water tank in the back room, Bankelas is chewing diamonds in the atrium, and the Onion Ranger is taking a nap...
Lu Ye unconsciously rubbed his eyes, feeling sleepy, and yawned. He slowly walked to the sofa, picked up Fairy Eevee, and covered him with a thin blanket.
"Classmate Xiao Luo, hang a closed sign outside the store."
Lu Ye said lazily: "Melloetta, here's some BGM to help you sleep."
Ripples appeared in the air, Meloetta's long hair was as smooth as waves, her eyes were glowing with emerald green, and there was a slight smile on her lips.
"Mello~?"
Looking around at the Pokémon in the store, Meloetta put her hands on her chest, pointed the microphone at her ear, and sang softly.
For a while, soft singing was flowing in the store, and it was afternoon.
Teacher Lu held Fairy Eevee in his arms until dusk, lying on his side on the sofa, and had a good sleep...
Then I fell asleep.
…
In the chat group.
The topic in the group is related to the upcoming food festival.
"The food festival in Miare City?"
Citron thought for a while and said: "It seems to commemorate the harvest and the contribution of the earth god Zygeld to ecological balance."
"I remember that the entire square would be filled with delicious food!" Yulijia said.
"There will be chefs from various regions who come to Miare City to seek higher skills in cooking." Serena recalled, "This is what I saw in the manual of Miare City."
Xiaozhi scratched his head: "@ Serena, aren't you going to participate in the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament? You can go back to Miare City to prepare first, and you can arrive in Biyi City in one day."
The next round of the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament will be held in Bizheng City, and it will also be Serena's first time participating.
Mi Keli put his chin on his hands and looked thoughtful.
The Triple Crown Satellite Tournament...is a unique exhibition event in the Carlos region.
It's a pity that the "Miccoli Cup" is not famous enough in Carlos...compared to coordinators, everyone prefers performers. Micoli shook his head helplessly.
"Yes." Serena nodded and said, "Yurika and I are both very interested in the food festival."
Yurika: [Happy Dongdong Rat·jpg]
"I may travel to the Carlos area in the near future." Xiaogang squinted his eyes.
"Oh?" Lu Ye held the neck of Stiff Neck and said in surprise: "The gym is under the care of Jiro?"
Xiaogang nodded and said: "This time I was invited by Mr. Chakluo to conduct a communication battle between the rock hall owners."
Rock museum owners are different.
Luye thought that Xiaogang's Mega Steel Snake would be at least the top two among the rock gym owners. Only Lizi, the island captain who mastered Rock Z, was expected to be better than Xiaogang.
A trainer's strength is closely related to his character. Xiaogang raised his younger brothers and sisters on his own, so it's no exaggeration to call him a 'real man'.
Lu Ye looked up at the sky.
"Since there is a big eating competition... I guess Ami will also come to participate..."
After all, she is the ‘black hole’ girl who has dominated multiple Big Eater competitions...
In addition to the Big Eater Competition, Teacher Lu is concerned about the other two events in this food festival.
The first is the selection of delicious juices.
Different crucible fruits, tree fruits, and different ratios will produce different flavors.
The most popular juice will be selected in this competition, and Tianwu Ni, an employee in the store, has a strong interest in winning the championship.
The second is a cooking showdown.
The most popular merchants and the most acclaimed chefs will be selected.
in other words……
This is a Shura field between chefs from various alliance areas.
A battle of eating halberds!
Lu Ye suddenly clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with fire.
Bet on the reputation of the UP owner of the food area.
I am bound to win this battle between Shoji and Halberd!

Lu Ye: "Hey, it hurts, it hurts, I have a stiff neck, Latias is here to heal the waves!"
"I! Coming!" Latias swooped down.
Lu Ye: "Don't feed with Dragon God Dive!"
"Hey, just kidding~" Latias's eyes curled up and he scratched his head with his little paws.
Lu Ye: "..."
I almost attracted the decoration team... and escaped!
…
Thursday, November 4th, sunny.
Things are calm in the Sinnoh Alliance, Daye went to the Severe Mountain to practice, Aliu went to Emoji Forest to catch bugs, and Grandma Kikuno was on duty in the administrative building.
Wu Song rarely had free time, so he went to the Shuimai City Library to read his favorite books.
Sirona patrolled Tianguan Mountain. After completing her daily work, she thought for a moment and commanded the biting land shark to fly in the direction of Carlos.
In less than two hours, the elegant and noble Sirona, dressed in black, appeared on a brick-paved street corner in Miare City.
The sun was shining just right, and Lu Ye was studying new dishes in the open-air kitchen at the bar, looking up at the sounding wind chimes.
After being slightly startled, Lu Ye raised a helpless smile: "You didn't even tell me in advance."
"The work is over, and I suddenly want to see you."
Sirona put her hands on Liu's waist, her blond hair hanging down to cover her face, and her posture was cool: "No?"
"Crack!" Liebite Land Shark opened his scythes and stood behind Zhulan with sharp eyes.
"If you tell me in advance, I can prepare new flavors of ice cream." Luye spread his hands.
"Well..." Sirona's beautiful face revealed a hint of regret, "It doesn't have to be so troublesome."
"It's not too late to do it now," Lu Ye said.
Sirona stared at Lu Ye with her calm eyes. After a while, she smiled, curled her eyes, and nodded lightly.
**
The strawberry cream is produced by Frosty Milk Fairy, the ice cubes are soaked in clear water that does not melt ice, and the fruit is sweet and sour grape fruit.
Michinoku explained while making it: "The sourness and sweetness of the grapes create a perfect duo, and it's also delicious when paired with salad."
Sirona nodded from time to time and said: "Sometimes I think you are a scholar, and I think you are a tree fruit celebrity, and then you became the league champion..."
"Zeng Ren." Lu Ye corrected.
"Your current incumbent is also the league champion."
Sirona raised her snow-white jade neck and said softly.
Lu Ye was startled, then raised his eyes to look at Sirona. Her proud face had a trace of blush, her eyes were evasive, and she lifted her blond hair from her cheeks.
This is the first time I have seen a cute and coquettish scene.
"It won't be the case in a few years." Lu Ye said lightly while peeling the fruit.
Zhulan was slightly lost in thought, her eyebrows furrowed, and she cast a cold gaze:?
"She will be the mother of my children, my fighting legend."
Zhu Lan was stunned for a moment, raised her long eyelashes and stared at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye raised a smile and suddenly felt at a loss.
The Sinnoh champion, who had always been graceful and noble, had slightly red eyes, his eyes were turning, and he immediately turned away his cheeks.
"Crack! (〝▼plate▼)"
After biting the land shark hard, the sickle glowed with blood, and the dragon's claws were about to strike.
Lu Ye:o(?Д?)っ!
Misunderstand!
I'm afraid I'm going to have to spend time at the Elf Center tonight!
Hidden by her blond hair, Zhulan has a tall and delicate profile, with a smile on her lips.
"...Are you not angry anymore?" Lu Ye asked tentatively.
"Ice cream." Zhulan said coldly.
"Here..." Lu Ye handed over the ice cream.
Zhulan looked at the glass calmly, then silently put her palms together and picked up the spoon.
He took a small sip and handed it to his red lips.
Sirona:(????)
So sweet!
Teacher Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
The danger is over...probably!
***
"After you retire, is it really okay for the champion Shang Ren to replace you?"
Sirona scooped up the ice cream and asked calmly.
"The main reason is that I work a lot of overtime... If I didn't work overtime, I wouldn't let Shang Ren take office." Lu Ye said very truthfully.
"Oh..." Sirona nodded silently.
I don’t understand, maybe he is a dedicated trainer like Gosatsu.
"Are you going to visit the food festival this weekend? There are several famous dessert sellers here." Lu Ye said.
"I have plenty of time." Sirona said thoughtfully, "I heard that Dora Sena will also participate in this event, so I want to meet her."
"Dora Sena?"
"Well, she is also the trainer of Shenhe Town, and currently serves as the dragon king of Carlos."
Seeing the confusion in Lu Ye's eyes, Sirona said calmly:
"As you can imagine, she is a distant relative of mine."
Shenhe Town often produces dragon trainers, which is similar to the dragon-controlling clan in Yanmo City, the hometown of dragons.
The thing that Teacher Lu is not afraid of the most is the dragon attribute...after all, he still has the Fairy Slate in his hand.
As long as Arceus doesn't wake up, the Fairy Slate is probably mine! (Wrong)
As the end of the year approaches, events of various sizes in Miare City become more and more frequent. Coupled with Teacher Lu’s status as a retired champion, many invitations come one after another.
The next day, Lu Ye, who was preparing new dishes, received an unexpected invitation.
"I am the committee chairman of the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament."
The other party said politely: "Mr. Lu Ye, are you free to attend the Bizheng Satellite Competition next week and serve as a judge?"
Lu Ye was slightly startled.
That's right... In addition to being a cook, I'm also a master coordinator!
"Who are the contestants?" Lu Ye's head moved slightly.
"Uh... let me take a look, there are Shana, Musashi Wei, Serena..."
Lu Ye was startled suddenly, recalled the chat content in the group, accepted the invitation and said:
