"Wow, a pink Ralts! This must be a shiny Pokémon."
"So cute, I really want to touch it."
Coming to school today, Jiang Chen attracted quite a bit of attention, mainly because the Ralts perched on him was too adorable.
Many female classmates wanted to touch Ralts, but Ralts didn't like them and directly pushed them away with Psychic.
Arriving at the classroom, Jiang Chen noticed a green Pokémon beside Ling Wanqiu. It had two white tusks extending outwards from its mouth and a long horn standing upright on its head.
Jiang Chen was also very familiar with this Pokémon: Axew. Its final evolution is Haxorus, which has pretty high base stats, especially its physical attack, making it suitable as a physical attacker.
Axew is also very difficult to obtain. Dragon-type Pokémon are very popular, and even though Axew is only a pure Dragon-type, it's exceptionally sought after.
Today, many students in the class with strong backgrounds had already begun to show their prowess. Besides the starter Pokémon they received yesterday, they also had either other starters or other rare Pokémon with them.
Although it's very realistic, this is the beginning of the gap between the rich and ordinary people; the resources they obtain are completely different.
After receiving their Pokémon, they also had to study two periods of theory every day at school.
Theoretical knowledge was indeed very important. Unless you were Ash Ketchum, how could you win in battle without understanding anything? You can't just rely on brute force in every battle.
The theoretical knowledge they learned mainly involved recognizing various Pokémon, understanding their types and abilities, and learning the effects of various moves.
After the two theory classes were over, the rest of the time was theirs to manage. Training Pokémon was their own business; the teachers wouldn't interfere too much.
"Ralts, just focus on training your Psychic."
After improving its strength yesterday, Ralts learned another move, Hypnosis, but for now, its only offensive move was Psychic.
Ralts was equivalent to a mage. Although stamina was also very important, the main focus was still on training its mental power.
He had Squirtle continue yesterday's training.
Then there was Beldum.
Looking at Beldum, Jiang Chen really didn't know what to have Beldum train. Don't be fooled by the fact that Beldum's final evolution is the pseudo-legendary Metagross.
In its Beldum stage, it can learn very few moves. Wild Beldum, before evolving into Metang, only know Tackle.
Even with someone teaching it, it can't learn many moves.
"You, just keep using Tackle on that rock. Practice this move well, and train your stamina at the same time," Jiang Chen instructed Beldum.
At the same time, Jiang Chen took out the Wonder Plate. The Wonder Plate could grow larger and smaller. When shrunk, the Wonder Plate wasn't conspicuous and could be carried around.
With the Wonder Plate around, Ralts and Beldum could continuously grow stronger.
Dragonite remained in its Poké Ball and didn't come out. Its main task was to challenge the Elite Four.
"You don't mind if I train here with you, do you?" Ling Wanqiu asked Jiang Chen.
"Of course not."
Jiang Chen smiled. He wouldn't even mind having a battle with Ling Wanqiu.
After all, defeating Pokémon could earn points.
"You have a Beldum too."
Ling Wanqiu looked at Beldum, her eyes filled with envy. Good heavens, starting with two pseudo-legendaries, who wouldn't be envious?
"It shouldn't be too hard for you to get a Beldum, right?"
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Ling Wanqiu wanted to say, "Not hard my foot!" Pseudo-legendaries weren't that easy to obtain. Although she had an Elite Four father, she wasn't like Jiang Chen, who also had a mother who was the chairman of a multi-hundred-billion-dollar corporation.
"Battling is the fastest way to improve. Want to have a spar?"
Jiang Chen looked at the Axew beside Ling Wanqiu and used his Eye of Investigation.
[Axew]
Gender: Male
Strength: Ordinary Tier 3
Talent Potential: Elite Four
Type: Dragon
Ability: Mold Breaker
Moves: Scratch, Leer, Dual Chop
"Alright."
Actually, Ling Wanqiu also had the intention of sparring with Jiang Chen; otherwise, she wouldn't have come over to train with him.
"Ralts, this battle is up to you."
Jiang Chen had Ralts come over.
Although Ralts was just born yesterday, Pokémon are very special creatures; they have combat power even when just born.
Moreover, it had experienced a strength boost from the Wonder Plate. The current Ralts was by no means weaker than Ling Wanqiu's Axew.
Ling Wanqiu also sent Axew out. As for Charmander, sorry, its strength was even less than Axew's.
"If I injure your Ralts, don't you feel bad."
Ling Wanqiu glanced at Ralts. It was so cute she almost couldn't bear to attack it.
"I don't think your Axew can injure my Ralts."
Jiang Chen looked confident.
"I won't go easy on you. Axew, charge and use Dual Chop!"
"You seem to have forgotten what I told you yesterday."
Hearing Ling Wanqiu have Axew use Dual Chop, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile. Dual Chop sounded like a Fighting-type move, but it was actually a Dragon-type move.
Even if it hit, it wouldn't be able to damage Ralts, which possessed the Fairy type.
"Use Psychic to toss it into the air."
Axew's short legs ran quite fast, but no matter how fast, they weren't faster than Psychic. The powerful psychic force made Axew unable to break free and directly threw it into the air, then smashed it onto the ground.
Its small body simply couldn't withstand falling from such a height.
Defeated in a single move, nothing more to say.
Ling Wanqiu's expression was a bit dazed. Axew fighting Ralts, it should have had some advantage, right?
Ralts' final evolution, Gardevoir, was indeed not weak, but in its Ralts stage, its base stats were really low, only slightly higher than Caterpie's, not even reaching two hundred.
Axew's base stats were over three hundred, higher than starter Pokémon in their initial stage.
Although base stats don't represent everything, Axew's overall stats were definitely higher at this point.
"Ral-ruru~!"
After defeating Axew, Ralts was very excited. Its body floated up and directly dived into Jiang Chen's embrace.
"What's your Ralts's strength level?" Ling Wanqiu came back to her senses and asked Jiang Chen.
"Ordinary Tier 3."
After getting the answer, Ling Wanqiu felt a bit down. If its strength was higher than her Axew's, she could accept it, but now she found it a bit hard to accept.
"This is a shiny Ralts, different from a normal Ralts. Its psychic power is stronger."
Hearing Jiang Chen's explanation, Ling Wanqiu could somewhat accept it.
