20demayo Chapter 391: The Evolution of the Three Eevees
Chapter 391: The Evolution of the Three Eevees
"Are you sure about this?"Lin Feng gently pinched A-Jiu's cheek.
When it came to evolution, he naturally hoped every Pokémon could reach their desired form, and more importantly, the form they truly liked.
Because once they evolved, there was basically no going back.
"Eevee, Eevee!" (Yes!)
A-Jiu nodded firmly.
"Alright then."
Lin Feng said no more and took out the Leaf Stone.
It was a system-rewarded emerald-green stone. Though not large, it shimmered with a vibrant jade-like glow. Even holding it, one could feel the strong vitality it contained.
This was for A-San. In fact, only A-San needed an evolution stone. The other two only needed their Everstones removed to evolve.
He brought the three Eevees to the nursery garden under the moonlight and handed the Leaf Stone to A-San.
"Keep it well. You'll evolve into Leafeon."
"Eevee, Eevee!"
A-San quickly took it with great seriousness.
Then, under the expectant gazes of the three Eevees, Lin Feng removed the Everstones from their bodies.
The moment they were removed, three beams of light rose from their bodies.
Even the Alolan Ninetales that had followed them along let out an excited cry.
Lin Feng could not help but smile. "It's not you evolving. Why do you look more nervous than them?"
"Woof woof…"
The Alolan Ninetales nodded calmly.
Of course it was nervous. After all, it was the team captain.
It then turned its gaze nervously toward the white light.
As the light took shape, Lin Feng's slightly tense expression relaxed.
From the silhouettes, he could already confirm that the three little ones had evolved successfully.
A-Wu's evolution caused the biggest commotion. The moment its Everstone was removed, the moon above seemed to shine brighter, as moonlight poured down onto its body.
Within five seconds, the evolution was complete.
The three Eevees that had looked so similar just moments ago now stood in their distinct evolved forms.
First, A-San.
Its eyes changed from black gemstone-like pupils to amber. Its long upright ears and tail now resembled leaves, and its overall color shifted to a pale yellow. Green leaf-like fur sprouted across its body.
"Eevee?"
Next was A-Wu.
It had evolved into Umbreon. Compared to its Eevee form, its fur changed the most. Its coat turned black, with glowing yellow ring patterns spread across its body, shimmering under the moonlight, giving it a mysterious aura.
And standing in the center was the most striking transformation of all, Sylveon.
It had light blue eyes, a pink and white body, and ribbon-like feelers tied around its ears and neck like bows. The long ribbons drifted gently in the air, making it look like a little fairy.
"Eevee, Eevee…"
After evolving, the three Eevees immediately examined their bodies.
When they confirmed everything had changed as expected, their faces filled with surprise and joy.
"Eevee, Eevee!" (I'm Sylveon!)
"Eevee, Eevee…" (I'm Leafeon…)
The three circled around Lin Feng's feet, while the Alolan Ninetales nearby finally seemed to relax.
Lin Feng then checked their data.
Pokémon: Sylveon
Gender: Female
Type: Fairy
Ability: Fairy Aura
Potential: Red
Stats: HP (24), Attack (23), Sp. Atk (25), Defense (24), Sp. Def (24), Speed (27)
Level: 38–39

Friendship: 99…100
Happiness: 80 (Evolved!)
The friendship value, which had just been 99, had instantly reached 100.
A system notification followed immediately.
[Congratulations! Sylveon's friendship has reached 100! Reward: Leaf of Xerneas (a leaf formed from life energy after the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas took the form of a great tree. It holds miraculous power.)]
"Xerneas!"
Lin Feng's eyes lit up instantly.
As the legendary Pokémon of life, he had always looked forward to anything related to life energy.
He had originally thought it would take a very long time.
Could this be used to create longevity dishes?
Lin Feng felt a surge of excitement, though his expression remained calm.
He had always wanted to create a dish that extended lifespan.
But no matter how he tried, the best result he had achieved was only a dish with a mild longevity effect.
While useful, when combined with his Viridian Force, it could slightly extend a Pokémon's lifespan, but it was still far from ideal.
Especially for Bug-type Pokémon and Alcremie, life energy was extremely scarce.
His Butterfree had already made him aware of this, and it was why he had begun worrying about both Butterfree and Alcremie.
But there was no rush. Both of them were still under a year old.
There was still plenty of time.
Lin Feng pushed the thoughts aside and looked down at Sylveon, who was bouncing excitedly and seemed ready to leap into his arms. He crouched down and smiled.
"So your evolution went smoothly after all."
Just as he was about to reach out and touch its head, A-Jiu's ribbon-like feelers suddenly extended like shadows and wrapped tightly around his right hand.
"Eevee, Eevee~"
A-Jiu was clearly fascinated by its new body parts.
Not only did it wrap around his hand, but even the ribbons around its neck seemed to want to extend further.
"Alright, alright."
Lin Feng laughed helplessly. He gently untangled the ribbon from his hand and instead stroked its soft surface.
The texture was completely different from before.
Eevee's fur had once been thick and fluffy like a fox, but Sylveon's fur was now short, fine, and incredibly dense, almost like smooth skin that clung to its body.
Umbreon was similar.
Its fur had also transformed into a shorter, denser texture.
Lin Feng turned his attention to A-Wu.
Pokémon: Umbreon

Friendship: 95
Happiness: 78
When Lin Feng looked up again, he met Umbreon's red eyes.
It looked very happy as well and licked his hand, though it was not as energetic as Sylveon and did not try to jump onto him.
As for A-San, it was the biggest winner of this evolution.
Pokémon: Leafeon
Gender: Female
Type: Grass

Happiness: 85
It was the only one among the three Eevees that had directly reached Gold-tier potential through evolution.
And its improvement was the most dramatic.
This was not surprising. The Leaf Stone Lin Feng had used carried the effect of rewriting genes and elevating potential.
Now it seemed that effect had worked extremely well.
A-San was the most timid of the three. At first, it hesitated when Lin Feng crouched down, but eventually it walked over shyly after he waved at it.
It was the only one still covered in fine fur after evolution.
Looking at its leaf-like ears, Lin Feng's hand itched slightly and he gently pinched them.
The touch was unexpectedly refreshing, cool like real leaves, while the body underneath remained warm.
"Good, very good. All of you evolved successfully."
Lin Feng stroked each of them in turn, then brought out a scale to weigh them.
A-San: 29 kg
A-Wu: 31 kg
A-Jiu: 25 kg
A-Jiu was the lightest, while A-Wu was the heaviest.
Interestingly, all three Eeveelutions were slightly heavier than average.
But Lin Feng was not surprised. They had clearly grown taller as well.
The average height of Eeveelutions after evolution was about one meter, but these three were all around 1.1 meters.
The Alolan Ninetales nearby also demanded to be weighed.
It was quite amusing when it stepped on the scale.
Lin Feng had assumed it would be the heaviest since it looked the largest.
Unexpectedly, despite appearing nearly 1.3 meters tall, it only weighed 21 kilograms.
So all that bulk came from its fluffy fur.
No wonder it felt so light when held.
"Heh, so it's just a skinny fox."
Before he could stop himself, Lin Feng teased it.
The next second, the Alolan Ninetales jumped onto his face.
"Waaah, waaah, waaah!" (Don't say it!)
"Alright, alright."
Only after Lin Feng agreed did it finally climb down.
When they left the nursery earlier, there had been three Eevees and one Alolan Ninetales. Now they returned with three brand-new evolutions and one Alolan Ninetales.
"Woof…"
At the doorway, Growlithe had been waiting. It barked happily and wagged its tail like a rattling drum.
But when it saw the evolved Eeveelutions, it instinctively showed its teeth for a moment before quickly stopping after recognizing their familiar scents.
Lin Feng could not help but smile.
"These are A-Jiu and the others. They've evolved."
He patted Growlithe's head.
Then he suddenly thought, Growlithe had been here for quite some time as well.
Maybe it was time for its evolution too?
He checked its status.
Pokémon: Growlithe
Gender: Male
Ability: Flash Fire
Potential: Blue
Stats: HP (25), Attack (18), Sp. Atk (24), Defense (16), Sp. Def (18), Speed (19)
Level: 18–19
Moves: Leer, Ember, Howl, Bite, Flame Wheel, Morning Sun…
Alright.
Still had a way to go.
Although evolution stones did not matter much for it, evolving too early would only cause a long adjustment period.
And that energy adaptation period would be quite troublesome.
Since it could be avoided, there was no rush.
Lin Feng patted its head again.
It was only eight in the evening.
Back in his previous world, this would have been the start of nightlife. But here, aside from major competitions, it was already rest time.
Lin Feng could not help but sigh.
After the evolved Eeveelutions finished cleaning themselves with small bursts of energy, they began bouncing on the bed.
Thankfully, Lin Feng had prepared a large bed in advance.
Tonight was their first night after evolution.
After playing for a while, the Eeveelutions gathered in front of Alolan Ninetales, who acted like a little commander and began its usual "meeting."
It talked about becoming stronger step by step, then stage two, stage three…
And finally, conquering Rayquaza.
They were working extremely hard.
Then…
Then it dragged Rotom aside to watch cartoons.
It was the final episode of the first season, so no matter how bored they had become with it, they still insisted on finishing it.
Lin Feng did not interrupt them. Instead, he turned to look at Serperior curled up quietly in the corner, its amber eyes closed as it rested on the carpet.
"Serperior."
Sensing his gaze, Serperior turned its head.
"When do you want to go see the World Tree?"
