My beast taming system has absolutely no problems!

This move is simple in effect, yet extremely powerful.

Within the Trick Room, switch the speeds of the two Pokémon!

If the two Pokémon have similar speeds, nothing will happen.

But if one is fast and the other is slow, then the one that was originally slow will gain the speed of the other!

It's roughly the same when applied to this world of beast taming.

And the Whirlpool Turtle...

To put it simply, any pet with "turtle" in its name is slow.

Even though the Whirlpool Turtle is a bipedal turtle, it's not much better.

Zhao Yuankang relied on the "shell shrinking and health recovery" attrition strategy largely because the Whirlpool Turtle was extremely slow before it evolved.

There is no doubt that the Trick Space can fundamentally solve this problem.

The only problem is...

"Can the Whirlpool Turtle learn Trick Space? It's a Water/Psychic type, so it should be able to..."

Xia Yu muttered to himself, but still bought the "Trick Space" move learning machine directly.

There's nothing I can do if I can't learn it; at worst, I'll just return the 600,000 yuan to them.

But Meow Meow Shop only refreshes three items every month, so I definitely have to get them all.

However, a single TM costs 500 breeding coins.

After buying the "Trick Space" move learning machine, Xia Yu only had 200 breeding coins left from the several tasks he had earned.

They could only drool over the remaining Energy Cube Makers and Specialty Plasters in the store.

The latter, in particular, although we haven't seen the specific effects yet, just from the name we know that it will most likely transform the pet's characteristic into "Hercules".

There's no need to elaborate on how outrageous this thing is.

Physical damage doubled!

The simplest description, the most direct effect.

In the past, Pokémon fans have discussed the question of who is stronger, Slaking or Arceus.

This demonstrates the power of this feature.

In the world of Beast Taming, the "Hercules" trait remains unique and can be considered a bug!

The characteristics of this world... or what people call "extraordinary" beings, are mostly like the baby fire lizard and the vortex turtle, which increase the power of certain attribute skills.

What's different is that the unique characteristics of this world grow along with the evolution of the pets.

Xia Yu's heart stirred slightly. What if he used this "Hercules" special medicated plaster on a newly hatched baby pet?

Will it evolve along with "Hercules" in the future?

Double the power, triple the power, or even... ten times the power?

Although it was uncertain, the thought of such a possibility still stirred Xia Yu's heart.

As for its exorbitant price of 3000 breeding coins?

That's no big deal!

To put it simply, converted to Donghuang coins, that's a price of 300 million.

If you ask anyone outside and ask them to change the special ability of a pet to "Hercules," would they agree?

It's safe to say that no one would refuse if they had enough money!

You could even say that hesitating for even a second is disrespectful to a "strongman".

No, I have to save this special plaster for my pet!

But then again, I still haven't seen my pet beast...

Thinking this, Xia Yu glanced at the special plaster again with reluctance, and then closed the Meow Meow Shop.

"Boss, you're finally down here! I thought you'd run off with the money!"

Zhao Yuankang's current state is similar to that of a woman waiting for her husband.

Seeing Xia Yu come down from the second floor, he hurriedly went to greet him.

"So, are there any skills that my Whirlpool Turtle can learn?"

Xia Yu took out his newly purchased "Trick Room" move learning machine and aimed it at the Whirlpool Turtle.

[Target confirmed: Squirtle]

[Detection skill suitability...]

[Compatibility: Excellent, can learn the move "Trick Room"]

Xia Yu breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As expected, the Spirit-type Torterra can learn Psychic-type moves in this Pokémon world.

He looked up at Zhao Yuankang and smiled, "There is one that is suitable. Your Whirlpool Turtle can also learn it. I will tell you the effect of the skill, and you can decide whether it is worth 600,000."

Zhao Yuankang nodded excitedly, "Yes, yes, store manager, please tell me."

Xia Yu explained, "This skill is called 'Trick Space'. After use, it will generate a domain within a certain range, and the speed of the pets within the domain will be reversed."

Xia Yu's explanation was not difficult to understand, and Zhao Yuankang realized it after a moment's thought.

"Shopkeeper, you mean, if the Whirlpool Turtle's opponent is a very fast pet, then..."

His expression grew increasingly excited. "My Whirlpool Turtle will gain incredible speed, while my opponent will be reduced to a tortoise's pace?"

Xia Yu nodded, "That's exactly what I mean."

"I want to learn!"

Zhao Yuankang grabbed Xia Yu's arm and shook it, "Coach...no, manager, I want to learn this skill!"

Xia Yu smiled slightly, "Six hundred thousand?"

Zhao Yuankang nodded frantically, "No problem!"

"readily!"

Xia Yu snapped his fingers and placed the "Trick Space" move learning machine in front of the Whirlpool Turtle.

"So, Whirlpool Turtle, are you ready?"

Whirlwind Turtle glanced at the TM, then nervously swallowed.

Then he pointed forcefully at the turtle... and nodded.

[Let's begin the lesson.]

The system notification sounded in Xia Yu's mind.

At the same time, the energy patterns on the surface of the move learning machine suddenly lit up.

A nearly transparent pale pink light enveloped the vortex turtle's head and then spread throughout its entire body.

Zhao Yuankang stared intently, not daring to breathe.

Having had the experience of the previous skills training, Xia Yu was not so nervous this time.

He watched quietly as the light seeped into the vortex turtle's body, waiting for Brother Tongzi's melodious "ding~"

Chapter 14 It's okay, three seconds is already great.

The light gradually faded.

[Teaching progress: 90%...95%...100%]

[Ding! Squirtle has successfully learned the move "Trick Room"!]

"Okay, all done."

Xia Yu put away the move learning machine.

Zhao Yuankang was stunned by this terrifying efficiency.

"You... you've already learned it?"

In the past, it was very difficult for Whirlpool Turtles to learn a skill. It would take them three to five days to learn it, let alone master or become proficient in it.

I never imagined that learning this unheard-of skill would take less than three minutes.

Xia Yu shrugged. "Whether you've learned it or not, you'll know once you try."

He turned to look at Madam Xue Ling sitting behind the counter, "Aunt Xue, come and help me try out the skill."

Lady Snow Spirit was now quite adept at helping test skills. She nodded slightly, moved gracefully over, and stood opposite the Whirlpool Turtle.

Immediately, tiny ice crystals began to condense around his body.

"Let Whirlpool Turtle activate Trick Room, and Lady Snow Spirit will attack with the fastest Ice-type move. Let's see who strikes first."

Zhao Yuankang nervously swallowed and gave the command to the Whirlpool Turtle: "Whirlpool Turtle, Trick Space!"

"chatter!"

The vortex turtle raised its head, and the silver-gray patterns on its shell suddenly lit up.

An invisible wave emanated from it, instantly enveloping half the room.

Xia Yu felt the scene before him distort, as if looking at a distant landscape through a heatwave, and everything was trembling slightly.

Under the silvery-gray light, everything changed.

Lady Snow Spirit raised her hand, and an icy blue light condensed in her palm.

Ice pick technique.

Although its power isn't particularly high, it's the fastest-casting ice-type skill.

However, under the influence of the magic space, Lady Snow Spirit's movements seemed to be slowed down.
