<h4>Chapter 563: The Volcano</h4>
After checking the conditions of the Pokémon in the Ecological Park, Yuga began to deal with the rewards the system had given him: eligibility to open two Sub-Ecopark and a Fire Stone vein.
The first Sub-Ecopark Yuga opened was the Volcano Sub-Ecopark, a suitable habitat for Fire-type Pokémon.
Under Yuga''s watchful eye, another blue portal appeared in the main Ecopark, signaling the sessful opening of the Volcano Sub-Ecopark.
Upon entering the Volcano Sub-Ecopark, Yuga immediately felt a wave of heat hit him.
The entrance of the Volcano Sub-Ecopark was situated right on the edge of a volcanic crater. As soon as Yuga stepped in, he saw a bubbling pool of fiery-red magma below.
The entire crater had a concave shape, but the terrain sloped gently downward, forming what appeared to be a magma pool, more like a magmake, as it was quite extensive and filled with scorching magma.
However, there were many tforms protruding from the magmake, likely designed for Fire-type Pokémon to rest or train on, as it would be challenging for them to stay in the scorching magma for long.
Due to the high temperatures in the vicinity, there were no nts around the volcano. It was barren, with nothing but red molten rock visible.
However, although the volcano itself was barren, the entire Volcano Sub-Ecopark was not.
Standing on the volcano and looking down, Yuga saw that half of the volcano''s base was covered in dense forests, while the other half was a t grasnd, with a smallke at the junction of the two.
Yuga thought that theyout of the Volcano Sub-Ecopark had been carefully designed to amodate Pokémon like Rapidash, which needed both the fiery volcano environment and a spacious area to roam.
On the other side of the forest was a grove of Tamato Berry trees, allden with bright red Tamato Berries.
Tamato Berries were extremely spicy for humans, but they were a favorite of Fire-type Pokémon.
After thoroughly understanding the environment of the Volcano Sub-Ecopark, Yuga released his Volcarona from its Poké Ball.
"Volcarona, this will be your new home from now on," Yuga said to Volcarona.
Volcarona nced around at its surroundings, then excitedly pped its wings and hovered above the magmake. Itnded on thergest tform in the middle of the magmake.
Volcaronay on the tform, its three pairs of orange-red wings spreading out. Threads of mes were drawn from the magmake by its wings, forming a fiery halo around Volcarona. The Pokémon had a content expression on its face.
"Volcarona, how do you like your new home?" Yuga called out to it.
Volcarona raised its head, nodding in excitement.
This ce was indeed perfect for Fire-type Pokémon, with pure Fire energy permeating the air.
For Volcarona, which had lived in ruins for many years, this was the first time it had experienced such afortable ce. It felt like it had wasted many years of its life.
After settling Volcarona, Yuga went to inform the Fire-type Pokémon about their move.
Under Yuga''s guidance, the Fire-type Pokémon lined up and left the Grasnd Sub-Ecopark. At the front were Nales and Houndoom, with their offspring, Vulpix and Houndour, following closely behind.
Originally, the two reon had no intention of moving to the Volcano Sub-Ecopark. Because they were the only two reon in the Eevee family, they preferred to stay with their friends in the Grasnd Sub-Ecopark.
In the end, Yuga made the decision, and the entire Eevee family moved to the Volcano Sub-Ecopark.
While the other Eevee family members may not be suited for living on the volcano itself, they could reside in the forest at the base of the volcano.
The environment in that forest was not inferior to that of the Grasnd Sub-Ecopark.
Although there is only one tomato berry tree, they don''t usually eat tree berry. What they eat are the Pokéblocks prepared by the Miltank, so it does not affect their living there.
Yuga didn''t have many Fire-type Pokémon, just Nales, Houndoom, and their respective offspring, Typhlosion and two Cyndaquil, Rapidash, and a few Ponyta. So, the relocation process was swift.
Upon arriving at their new home, the Fire-type Pokémon were excitedly frolicking around. They found the environment extremelyfortable.
Although Fire-type Pokémon were fine in a typical environment, a ce saturated with Fire energy like a volcano was more suitable for them.
The League didn''t raise Charmander in traditional Ecological Parks. One of the most famous examples was the Charicific Valley in the Johto region, the League''srgest Charmander breeding base.
After reaching the edge of the magmake, Nales and Houndoomy down, closing their eyes and enjoying the warmth.
They extended their tails into the magma, gently swaying them, asionally sshing drops of magma onto their fur, but they didn''t mind at all.
Most of the Nales and Houndoom in Yuga''s Ecological Park had the ability sh Fire, so when the magma touched them, it not only didn''t harm them but actually made them feel quitefortable.
It had to be said that Pokémon were truly remarkable creatures.
Yuga also brought his Charizard into the Volcano Sub-Ecopark, and it followed suit, dipping its tail into the magma pool, imitating what Nales and Houndoom were doing.
However, it didn''t take long for its face to turn bright red, and it quickly pulled its tail out of the magma.
Charizard clutched its burnt tail, looking at Yuga with a pitiful expression, tears welling up in its eyes once again.
Unlike Nales and Houndoom, Charizard didn''t possess the sh Fire ability. The mes on its tail weren''t real fire but rather its life force, so regr mes could still cause it harm.
Yuga reminded Charizard that it could learn from Volcarona''s method of absorbing mes, so it eagerly hopped over to the tform next to Volcarona.
Seeing Volcarona fan its wings to draw mes from the magmake, Charizard imitated it by lying on the tform and pping its wings continuously.
Unfortunately, it didn''t manage to absorb the mes but instead caused the magma to stter all over, earning disapproving nces from nearby Typhlosion and Cydaquil.
Seeing that Charizard was struggling with me absorption, Volcarona voluntarily stepped in to teach it. Charizard listened attentively as Volcarona exined.
Charizard, being a Pokémon with Indigo potential, quickly grasped the correct method of harnessing the power of magma for training under Volcarona''s guidance.
However, Yuga couldn''t help but feel that Charizard''s attempt to emte Volcarona''s method of using its wings to manipte the mes was rather inefficient. He suggested that Charizard try using its own tail.
Charizard took the advice and gently waved its tail on the surface of the magmake, copying Volcarona''s movements. It sessfully drew the mes from the magma and utilized them more effectively.
Meanwhile, Rapidash and the Ponyta quickly ran to the grassy area at the base of the volcano to frolic around.
Seeing that the Fire-type Pokémon had settled in, Yuga took the Eevee family to the adjacent forest to make their new home.
