Pokémon: Farm Story

Chapter 78: Slowking: Power Surge!

After evolution, Slowking looked quite different from before. 

It now stood on two legs, with an orange-and-white umbrella-like structure around its neck and its hands clasped behind its back, giving off the air of a supervising leader. 

The Shellder on its head had its eyes on the back, near the base of Slowking’s skull, while a red gem adorned the front. 

If pre-evolution Slowpoke was the type that seemed clueless and foolish to everyone, post-evolution Slowking was the type that seemed to regard everyone else as fools. 

After all, re

It had already adapted to its new power. 

After all, this energy had always been within it, and it had practiced controlling it under Uxie’s guidance. 

Now, with evolution, it had fully mastered it. 

The delay was due to a message from Uxie that surfaced alongside the unsealed power. 

After digesting the message, Slowking fell silent for a moment before refocusing. 

“Slow.” 

Natsume, can you assign me some tasks? 

Managing the farm or handling accounts—anything’s fine. 

Hands still behind its back, Slowking glanced at the Zorua playfully crouching at Natsume’s feet before asking softly. 

Despite the immense power it had gained, Slowking’s demeanor seemed unchanged—at least on the surface. 

“Sure. I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed managing the farm lately.” 

“I’ll be counting on you, Slowking.” 

Natsume agreed without hesitation. He trusted Slowking to handle farm management. 

“Slow.” 

Don’t worry, Natsume. 

With a slight bow, Slowking’s tone remained as calm as ever. 

Uxie, it seems I’ll be staying here for a long time. 

I hope the next time we meet, I’ll surprise you.
