"Buyers?" Kawaki couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard these two words.
Junsha Chun nodded and said, "That's right. Some humans have extremely twisted fetishes. They buy Pokémon and collect them as collectibles."
"But this behavior is strictly forbidden by Alliance law, so those people will buy their favorite Pokémon through Pokémon Hunter organizations and the black market."
As a police officer, Junsha Chun had seen and heard many such things.
Some wealthy individuals, in order to fulfill their childhood dream of collecting rare Pokémon, would spend large sums of money to purchase and collect precious and rare Pokémon.
Some people who loved Gardevoir would forcibly snatch them, marry them, and engage in such illicit relationships through force and plunder.
There were even some who would force Ditto to transform into the appearance of people they liked and do unspeakable things to them.
In short, these were all extremely perverse and illegal acts.
"Those people will offer an irresistibly high price. A rare Pokémon can often sell for over a million, or even tens of millions, in the black market."
Speaking of this, Junsha Chun's face showed an expression of disgust: "One day, we will eradicate all Pokémon Hunter organizations in this world!"
Kawaki fell silent.
Although he had expected it, when he truly heard these things, even someone as twisted as him found it a bit too perverse.
Junsha Chun straightened her expression. She redirected her gaze to the six imprisoned Pokémon and spoke again:
"These six Pokémon will be entrusted to your care, but it will probably take a great deal of effort to help them emerge from their trauma…"
Kawaki silently looked at the six Pokémon and said, "Leave it to me, Xiao Chun Jie."
The current number of Pokémon in the Breeding House was not large, so they had plenty of time to care for these few Pokémon.
"In that case, I'm entrusting them to you!" Junsha Chun said.
Although these six Pokémon were all very rare to Pokémon Hunters,
to them, the Pokémon they liked were even more precious.
Under normal circumstances, these rescued Pokémon would face two choices.
One was to choose a suitable environment for release.
The other was to find a nearby Breeding House, or the backyard of a certain professor's research institute, and place them there for care.
However, there was no research institute in Fallarbor Town. The only Dr. Solance specialized in studying meteorites.
Therefore, Kawaki's Breeding House became the best place for these Pokémon.
Because the mental state of the Pokémon living here was evident to everyone.
Kawaki, as a junior breeder, was capable of taking good care of every Pokémon here.
Junsha Chun nodded to Kawaki, then left the Breeding House to return to the police station to handle her official duties.
In an instant, only Kawaki and the six rescued Pokémon remained in the Breeding House.
Chansey still protected the other five Pokémon behind her in a guardian-like posture.
Miss Jenny said that these Pokémon were previously wild Pokémon, rarely saw humans, and the first humans they saw were likely those two Pokémon Hunters.
As such, they could easily perceive any subsequent human contact as a threat.
Seeing their wary expressions, Kawaki tried his best to show them kindness, a smile on his face, and comforted them:
"Don't worry, Chansey, this is a Breeding House. I am Kawaki, the owner here. Relax, all the bad guys have been caught, and no one will harm you anymore."
Kirlia, Bulbasaur, Gastly, Chansey, Abra, and Ditto.
These six Pokémon were all extremely rare in the Hoenn region!
As expected of Pokémon Hunters… they specifically target these kinds of Pokémon.
When Kawaki spoke, the Growlithe beside him also barked twice seriously at them.
Bewear, Chingling, and the Clefairy were also watching these wary Pokémon.
Seemingly sensing the goodwill emanating from the human in front of them, Chansey's face showed hesitation.
"Lucky…"
The five Pokémon hiding behind her also reacted differently.
Kirlia dared not show her head, Bulbasaur was a bit nervous, Abra's body was stiff and dared not move, Ditto's slime-like body was trembling slightly, and even Gastly only dared to show half her face, stealthily observing the human.
Kawaki noticed Gastly's gaze. He immediately looked up, and the moment their eyes met, Gastly instantly retracted her head, not daring to show herself.
Kawaki: "…"
As Miss Jenny said, these Pokémon all suffered varying degrees of psychological trauma.
Under normal circumstances, Pokémon like Gastly are usually playful, mischievous, and outgoing.
But now, she gave off a timid impression.
Kawaki then turned his gaze to Chansey.
Looking at them, it was not difficult to guess how this kind-hearted Chansey comforted and protected them during their time in the sewer prison.
Perhaps it was precisely for this reason that these Pokémon were so dependent on her.
Kawaki could not make them immediately emerge from that state. After a brief thought, he continued to say to these few Pokémon:
"For the next period, you will live in this Breeding House!"
"They are all Pokémon who live with me and will not harm you. If you have any questions, you can ask them." Kawaki looked at Clefairy and said to Chansey and the others.
"Please follow me, I will take you to where you will live."
For the living quarters of these Pokémon, Kawaki did not place them in the backyard, but rather in the courtyard where the Berry fields were planted.
The cow sheds where the Miltank lived were currently empty, so Chansey and the others could move in there first.
Without him there, these Pokémon should feel a little safer and not become stiff with stress just by seeing humans.
Moreover, that area was usually the living space for Oddish, Clefairy, and Castform, so it wouldn't be too desolate.
Kawaki led the way.
Chansey hesitated for a moment, then cautiously followed with the other Pokémon.
They passed through a small wooden door located in a corner, and suddenly, the view before them opened up dramatically.
What greeted their eyes was a vibrant area.
Berry fields with large, round berries, fields growing various crops and vegetables, and an open, lush grassland, where colorful small flowers bloomed, looking very lovely.
After being confined in the sewer prison for nearly a week, the Pokémon, who hadn't seen the outside world in a long time, were stunned in place after clearly seeing everything before them.
They hadn't realized it before, but now, after experiencing those events, they discovered that their previous lives had been so happy and beautiful!
