圆陆鲨想当训练家

As night deepened, the clock struck eight.

With slightly heavy steps, Gadriya stopped in front of the dormitory.

Even through the door, she could keenly sense the familiar aura of Lu Sha inside the room.

As if switching on a switch, she took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her exhaustion.

The moment her fingertips touched the doorknob, her delicate face regained its usual cool and noble expression.

"I'm back!"

Cattleya pushed open the door and entered, her voice steady, revealing nothing unusual.

"Click! (You're back! Did you find any interesting books at the library today? You sound like you're in a good mood.)"

Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Lu Sha, who was curled up on the sofa scrolling through the news, put down her phone and ran to the entrance with her short legs.

The woman before me, Cattleya, was dressed in a pristine white gown, carrying an exquisite handbag and holding a book, as if she had just returned from a noble tea party, showing no signs of having been in the wild.

"Yes, today's harvest was plentiful."

A perfect smile graced Cattleya's lips, but her fingers subtly tightened, completely obscuring the title of the book in her arms.

Complete Annotations on Pokémon Habitats in Celebration Forest

She casually slipped on her adorable Gible slippers and slipped the book into her handbag hanging in the entryway.

"Did you take your Pokémon to the training room? How was it? Did you learn anything?"

goo~

An untimely and prolonged rumbling sound abruptly shattered the carefully maintained elegance.

Cattleya's expression froze instantly, and a visible crack appeared on her cool mask. A trace of panic crept into the corner of her eyes.

"Click! (You didn't forget to eat dinner because you were reading, did you?)"

Lu Sha gave a knowing look, stretched out its short front paws, and pointed towards the kitchen.

"Click! (Don't worry, I knew it. I ordered you the cafeteria's special set meal, all your favorites.)"

"Huh? I was actually seen through?"

As soon as Cattleya slumped her shoulders, her feigned composure vanished instantly, and she transformed into a little girl who had done something wrong.

But then I thought, with Lu Sha's intelligence, it would be strange if she didn't know what she was doing.

Since he didn't expose it and even made excuses for himself, that means he tacitly approved!

If I work hard for another day tomorrow and collect 10 Gym Leader Pokémon, I can ask Lu Sha to help me make a trade.

She ran around all day, but only caught 5.

The Pokémon in the Celebration Forest are generally not very high level, so it's not advisable for her to catch more.

If we want to continue the hunt, we can only continue heading towards Tianguan Mountain.

There are not only Gym Leader level Pokémon there, but also quite a few Elite Four level Pokémon.

"Click! (Go eat, everything's going well here. Not only has it learned to dig, but it's also mastered the unicorn rhinoceros's stomp. I'm letting it practice on its own, and it'll rest when it gets tired.)"

Lu Sha walked ahead with her hands behind her back, leading her to the dining table, like a worried old housekeeper.

"Okay, let it practice over there. If it misbehaves, tell me!"

Cattleya waved her little fist behind him, then obediently sat down at the table.

The table was set with exquisite food.

Two slices of perfectly toasted whole wheat bread, pan-fried chicken breast drizzled with lemon butter sauce, stir-fried asparagus with roasted cherry tomatoes, a bowl of rich borscht, and a cup of unsweetened coffee.

Everything was something she liked.

"Click! (I can handle this, you'd better take care of yourself first, young lady!)"

Lu Sha jumped onto the chair opposite her, rested her chin on her hand, and watched Cattleya eat.

It must be said that watching a young lady eat is indeed a visual treat.

Even when she was starving, she maintained the composure that was ingrained in her bones.

The bread should be cut into dice-sized pieces before being elegantly put into your mouth.

But Lu Sha only watched and enjoyed it; there was no way she would learn from it.

The time it takes for Cattleya to eat one meal is enough for him to eat 10 meals.

"Click! (By the way, the academy sent out a notice that everyone should gather in the auditorium at 10 a.m. tomorrow.)" Lu Sha suddenly said.

"Hmm? What's up?"

Cattleya swallowed a small spoonful of borscht, and only spoke calmly after putting down the spoon.

"Click! (Tomorrow is the quarterfinals of the World Championship, Sinnoh Mustard Bamboo Elite Four member versus Kanto Agatha Elite Four member.)"

The World Championships, the league's highest-level event, is a quadrennial showdown of titans.

The trainers who made it to the top 16 were all champions from their respective regions.

The champion of each World Championship is equivalent to the pinnacle of an active trainer.

This is the third edition, and Professor Oak won the championship in the first two editions.

"Is the Mustard Bamboo King Cynthia's grandfather? Can we win this time?"

Cattleya paused slightly with her fork.

Normally she would definitely be interested, but right now, making money and acquiring resources is the top priority.

"Click! (I don't know, but since they let us go see, they should be able to win, right?)" Lu Sha said uncertainly.

"Who are the top eight this time?" Gadriya asked curiously.

If their regional champion can win, it might be worth spending some time watching.

However, if she remembered correctly, the previous public match record between Mustard Bamboo and Kikuko was 9:0?

Mustard Bamboo King has never won.

But things don't happen more than ten times; this time, it's time to win.

"Click (The quarterfinals list, let me see.)"

"Ka (The Hoenn Elite Four member, the Hoenn Elite Four member!)"

"Kaka (Aderc Champion of the Unova region)"

"Ka (The Masted Champion of the Galar region.)"

"Ka (The King of the Sinnoh region)."

"Ka (Dodo, Elf King Chikuko, and Blaine from the Kanto region.)"

"There are three in the Kanto region? Not to mention Champion Oki, who retired last year." Cattleya was somewhat surprised.

"Crack! (Not only that, if Giovanni from Viridian Dojo and Liu from Kaji Dojo go all out, they definitely have the strength to make it into the top eight.)" Lu Sha added.

"Kanto is really full of talented people. Who is this Dodo? Does Kanto have a Flying-type Elite Four member?" Cattleya asked curiously.

She had heard of the others, but she had never heard of the dodo bird.

"Click! (The new Champion of Kanto this year, full name Lance, the strongest member of the Lance family this generation, and it is rumored that his Dragonite has Champion-level strength.)" Lu Sha introduced.

"Then why is its nickname the Dodo bird?"

Cattleya blinked, revealing a strong thirst for knowledge.

She wasn't actually interested in dodos, but she sensed Lu Sha's desire to introduce them.

"Crack! (Because he calls himself the Dragon King, but all his main Pokémon are Flying-type!)" Lu Sha chuckled.

"what?"

Cattleya's expression stiffened. She thought of the Kanto questions she'd encountered during her exams and replied without hesitation:

"A fire-breathing dragon?"

"Click click click! (Yes! That's not all! His team also includes Altaria, Gyarados, Dragonite, Salamence, and Aerodactyl!)"

"Are these all flying-type?" Cattleya asked with a puzzled expression.

"Click! (Yes!)"

"puff!"

How did you choose the name?

They all sound like dragons, but why are they all flying-type?

After a restrained laugh, Cattleya feigned ignorance and asked curiously:

"How many genuine dragons are inside?"

"Click! (Only Dragonite, Salamence, and Altaria! The rest are just there to make up the numbers.)" Lu Sha cackled.

"This is really interesting. But if we become Heavenly Kings, what kind of Heavenly Kings should we be?" Cattleya smiled.

"Click! (Superpower! It has to be superpowered!)"

"But you're a Ground/Dragon type!"

"Crack! (But my strongest move will always be the Mind Hammer!)"

"It's a deal then! Let's become Sinnoh's Psychic Champions as quickly as possible!"

"Click! (It's wrapped!)"
