Pokémon Scenario: Intercepting Gible at the Start

When Shang Qiu asked about his training methods, the hairy man showed a proud expression.

“My monkey and I get up at six o’clock every day to run, and then we do combat training after 7:30.”

"The daily meals are prepared by the breeders at the breeding center."

"Even the first top-up of each week is done on time and in the exact amount, precisely timed, never more..."

At this point, the hairy man looked somewhat embarrassed.

It seems like I said something I shouldn't have?

Shang Qiu waved his hand, indicating that this clown could stop.

Based on the hairy man's description, Shang Qiu has determined that his monkey monster is a speed-attack type.

"To be honest, based on my observation, your Mankey can only reach the Elite level, so there's no hope for you to reach the Gym level."

The hairy man was stunned, as if struck by lightning, and stood dumbfounded on the stage.

Although we already knew that Mankey could only possibly reach the gym, not necessarily.

But Shang Qiu's direct suppression of this possibility is something he finds hard to accept.

Elite and Gym Leaders may seem similar, but for Mankey...

Being an elite-level being means that he can only remain in his initial form for his entire life.

The evolution standard for Primeape is level 30, which is exactly the threshold for the Gym level!

Seeing the hairy man's expression, Shang Qiu felt a little better.

He's clearly a straight guy who would make a first-time purchase, but he insists on pretending to be a sister to disgust me!

Then I'll keep you in suspense for a bit.

Seeing that the hairy man's sadness had reached its peak, Shang Qiu slowly said:

"However, your monkey monster could try changing its training route."

"If we shift his focus from speed-based warriors to high-damage warriors and give him more opportunities to hone his vitality, he has a great chance of becoming a gym leader."

"Garuda, take this monkey monster away and help him train his vitality."

"How do you train? It's simple, just hit him, hit him a few more times."

"Oh right, the Fighting-type Pokémon's owner almost wanted to train with the Pokémon, so I took his owner with me."

"Roar!"

Yes, master, I've got it covered!

Garchomp borrowed a vine from Viper and used it to tie up the two of them before taking them away.

The hairy man's voice grew increasingly faint as it came from the battle zone.

"No—Brother Qiu, there must be other training methods. I will never have another child for you. Please forgive me this once!"

"what!"

[Ding! Garchomp defeated Mankey, gaining 92 experience points.]

[Ding! Garchomp defeated the Monkey King's master, gaining 1 experience point.]

Hearing the system notification, Shang Qiu felt relieved.

It not only helped the students' Pokémon, but also improved the strength of its own Pokémon, and also built a good relationship with Teacher Ma Ming.

A triple win, how wonderful!

"Next person!"

...

"Your Pokémon needs to practice its speed. I happen to have a Pokémon that can help you unlock its potential."

[Ding! Froakie defeated Wartortle, gaining 132 experience points.]

"Next person!"

...

"Your Beedrill has a Hidden Ability; it deals even greater damage when it hits a vital spot. You should train it well."

I suggest practicing focusing your Pokémon's energy; I also have a Pokémon here that can help you practice its concentration.

The Beedrill trainer's face lit up with a hint of joy. It was just a concentration training exercise; surely his Pokémon wouldn't get beaten up?

Before the Beedrill trainer could even celebrate for long...

"Snapped!"

Beedrill fell down!

[Ding! Ralts defeated Beedrill, gaining 104 experience points.]

[Ding! Garchomp defeated Mankey, gaining 92 experience points.]

[Ding! Garchomp defeated the Monkey King's master, gaining 1 experience point.]

"Next person!"

A Nine-Tails trainer looked at Shang Qiu with a hint of fear, worried that his Nine-Tails might also be "tortured".

He understands getting hit during training, but there's no need to hit the Pokémon again as soon as it stands up!

Shang Qiu's lips curled into an innocent smile.

"Your Nine-Tails evolved too early. You haven't learned many skills yet. You need to practice your skills properly."

“Perfect timing, I have a tank here that can spar with your Nine-Tails.”

"Little Eevee, come out."

A red light flashed, and Shangqiu's Ibrahimovic appeared on the opposite platform.

Seeing that Shang Qiu's Eevee was Umbreon, the Nine-Tails trainer breathed a sigh of relief.

Shang Qiucheng wasn't lying to me; he really is a meat shield.

Surely a Umbreon wouldn't beat up its own Nine-Tails, would it?

Little Ibu looked warily at the big guy in front of him, somewhat afraid.

Something this big, would it kill you if it hit you?

I need to quickly update my status!

"嘤嘤嘤!"

Eevee's adorable act reduced Ninetales' attack power, while simultaneously creating a water ring around its body.

The Nine-Tailed Trainer was finally relieved; it was indeed a tank-type Pokémon.

My elf is so lucky, I don't even have to be beaten by Shang Qiu.

He decided that when Shang Qiu treated him to dinner tonight, he would only eat and not take anything.

No more harm to Shangqiu!

"Nine-Tails, launch your attack! Remember not to use too much force!"

When Eevee saw the Ninetales trainer's smiling expression, it became even more alert.

Anyone with squinty eyes is a monster; just look at their owner!

This nine-tailed fox must be very powerful; it might kill me in one hit.

We must prevent him from launching an attack!

With that thought in mind, Eevee quickly approached Nine-Tails, a hint of purple appearing on its body.

"boom!"

A water cannon, even larger than Eevee's, hits Ninetales at point-blank range, its powerful attack amplified by the Adaptability ability.

In addition, due to the skill counter, Nine-Tails instantly collapsed.

The Nine-Tails trainer stared at Umbreon in astonishment.

"Brother Qiu, is your Eevee legal?"

Chapter 196 Ralts, Crystal Evolution!

Next up was Jia Qiong, and Jia Qiong and Bulbasaur had fawning smiles on their faces.

"Brother Qiu, you forgot your Gardevoir, didn't you?"

"No, Gardevoir is watching TV at home."

Hearing that Gardevoir was not there, Jia Qiong felt relieved.

Shang Qiu only has a few Pokémon, and now they all have their own rivals to beat up.

I can't exactly go and beat up Bulbasaur myself, can I?

Shang Qiu did not provide any guidance to Jia Qiong's Bulbasaur.

When it comes to drug protection, no one knows more about it than Jia Hongtao.

If I were to offer advice, it would be like showing off my limited skills before an expert.

But it wouldn't be bad to help Jia Qiong hone his Bulbasaur, would it?

It also allows me to verify one of my hypotheses.

The sword sheath leveled up a lot during the few days it spent with the frog; I wonder if it somehow managed to get its "Training Master" stat.

"Baby dragon, come out and fight!"

When the baby dragon appears, the instinctive reaction is to run away; it's been almost driven crazy by the great white shark these past few days!

"Don't run away, we're fighting someone today!"

Upon hearing that it was going to fight someone else, Baby Dragon immediately stopped in its tracks.

Looking back, I saw a Bulbasaur.
