Pokémon development strategy

Shen Qi had previously visited Tamamo Academy and Sunshine Academy as a student of a fighting dojo, which were relatively close. How could the fighting dojo and Golden Dojo send people all the way out to sea to come to the Gemini Academy for advice?

Moreover, the reputation of the Asaba Conservation Area Work Station is already quite big for the Gemini Academy.

"Oh!"

As expected, the security guard introduced himself with great enthusiasm.

He is not only a doorman, but also a service worker, performing multiple duties including cleaning and maintenance.

This is similar to the Elf High School, where funds are limited and all are spent wisely. Besides, there aren't many job opportunities at the Gemini Academy.

"Excuse me, what is your name, young apprentice?"

"Oh, I'll go to Shen... er, Ah Qi."

On the trainee work permit, Nazi gave the name "Aqi" to avoid revealing Shen Qi's identity as much as possible.

By the way, the name Ah Qi has a lot of flavor of a person's name in the Pokémon world.

A lot of people with the character "A", such as A Xing, A Du, A Si, Absol...

Ah Qi is very integrated into the masses.

"Where does Qi want to visit? Why don't you wait until the get out of class is over and I'll ask the teachers to take you there."

As a service staff, the middle-aged man in front of him can show Shen Qi around. He is worried that Shen Qi will think the specifications are not enough...

"No, no, it's not that complicated." Shen Qi waved his hand, "I'm mainly here to learn how you take care of weak or young Pokémon in cold weather."

"Okay then, this way."

Let another logistics officer take over, and the service personnel took Shen Qi to the back of Gemini Academy.

The park for raising Pokémon is not divided into elementary school and junior high school sections, and all Pokémon raised by the school are in one place.

While chatting with the service staff, Shen Qi learned that the Gemini Academy raised more than four hundred Pokémon.

It sounds like a lot, but it's not much compared to their total student number of nearly 3,000, and not every student can get their first Pokémon in their life at school.

The climate on the Twin Islands is cold, and the place where Pokémon are raised is where people have artificially transformed several caves and burrows on the hills. There are also wooden houses and sheds built by the academy, which are padded with thick hay to keep out the cold and keep warm.

"Actually, I like long-winged gulls very much." Shen Qi said seemingly unintentionally, "But long-winged gulls are a little difficult to manage."

Some long-winged gulls will have the "rain-making" trait after evolution. They will master the "praying for rain" skill at an early age, or even master it vaguely, and pray for rain if they lose control of it by accident.

Same thing as bed-wetting.

"Hahaha, Qi knows a lot. I'm mainly responsible for the cleaning of the teaching area, and I don't have many opportunities to personally operate the Pokémon in the breeding academy."

The service staff introduced that the breeding of Pokémon is taken care of by Teachers B and C who teach life courses.

"Teacher B? Teacher C?"

"Hahaha, the name is weird, right? Anyway, they are not residents of Gemini Island or Red Lotus Island. They are quite capable."

The service staff were full of praise.

The Twin Islands are a small place, and capable trainers basically won't stay there.

The Honglian Island volcanic incident ended for many years, and what needed to be rebuilt has been rebuilt long ago. Excellent talents can go there, and there is also Qianhong City to the east.

Therefore, the teaching level of Gemini Academy is far inferior to that of ordinary schools in Kanto. The abilities of teachers B and C are indeed much higher than those of other teachers.

"You are really young and promising."

Hearing the names B and C, Shen Qi had some definite guesses in his mind.

"What kind of people are they?"

"A very young couple, looking very exotic."

BC group, very young men and women.

It's most likely Yamato and Kozaburo.

In the regular world line, they quit Team Rocket early after graduating from Team Rocket's training school, opened a bakery and a coffee shop in Shabi City, and later surrendered themselves and voluntarily cooperated with the National Security Agency in investigating the Tulip Group.

The situation of the BC combination in the super evolution world line is unclear, and Shen Qi is also a little suspicious of the Gemini Academy.

Chapter 652: BC Being Hunted

"Nazi!"

"what?"

On the phone, Shen Qi called out urgently, "Do you know the BC combination of the Rockets?"

"BC..." After a moment's hesitation, Nazi simply responded, "I haven't heard of it."

"Yamado and Kozaburo."

"do not know."

Compared to the Rocket Team's executives and duo, Amado and Kozaburo really don't have many roles.

Nancy was once one of the three leaders of Team Rocket, and she had no connection with Team Rocket’s training school, so it was normal for her not to know about the BC combination.

Shen Qi roughly introduced the roles of Yamato and Kozaburo, "They appeared in Gemini Academy, joined as teachers, and have been working for two or three years."

I don’t know if the BC of the super evolution world line has any connection with the Tulip Group, but in the conventional world line, Amado and Kozaburo at least know Domino.

In between the conversations, Nancy asked the subordinates she brought over from Team Rocket about the situation of Yamato and Kozaburo.

"Then the Twin Academy may have nothing to do with the Tulip Group."

About four years ago, the BC group, which had withdrawn for a long time, accidentally cooperated with the police to investigate the Tulip Group, and was targeted by Domino who held a grudge against them. So Yamato and Kozaburo were detained in the police station for half a year. After they were released, they were almost assassinated and hid for another half a year.

It was not until the Tulip Group's actions suffered a setback and went dormant that the BC Group left the Security Station cautiously and low-key.

I didn't expect to go to Gemini Academy.

It's remote enough there and they have no intention of becoming famous, so they have been able to live in peace until now.

Judging from this, the place where the BC group is located is naturally unrelated to the Tulip Group, which proves that there is no big problem with the Twin Academy.

"That's good."

Shen Qi had no intention of having anything to do with the BC group, as long as he could ensure safety.

When the get out of class was over, the attendant introduced Ah Qi to a young woman with long golden hair.

It is indeed Amado...

Shen Qi remained calm and treated it as their first meeting.

There came a trainee from the Asaba Nature Reserve. Yamado was also very enthusiastic and took Shen Qi to visit the place where they made their own elf rations.

Buying packaged elf rations is definitely expensive. If you make them yourself, the small amount will waste time and the cost will not be reduced.

The Gemini Academy has taken in more than 400 Pokémon, and it is much more cost-effective to buy raw materials in batches and piles to make homemade Pokémon rations than to purchase finished products.

"It's really amazing."

While Shen Qi expressed his approval, he chatted about some interesting things, "Have you encountered any particularly difficult Pokémon? I just talked to the duty teacher and found that the Long-winged Gull, which I like very much, is a little difficult to manage the 'Rain Prayer' skill."

"Long-winged Gull." Speaking of this Pokémon, Amado obviously thought of a vivid example, "We also have a Long-winged Gull in Gemini Academy. Principal Katsura picked it up from the beach more than three years ago."

Recalling the content of [Memory Image], the third set of pictures opens with a stormy day. A long-winged gull barely flies across the ocean and falls exhausted on an unknown beach. When he barely opens his eyes, a bandaged hand picks him up.

Next up is the campus life of Gemini Academy.

At that time, Shen Qi thought that Xijiana was also a character with bandages wrapped around her palms. This feature was not very recognizable, and a large number of trainers in the fighting dojo used bandages as hand guards.

Unexpectedly, the owner of the bandaged hand was Principal Gui.

Yamado had no idea that Shen Qi was thinking so much, and he just kept talking to himself.

"That long-winged gull is very strange. It should have lived with the trainer and has a sound understanding of all aspects."

Longwing entered the Gemini Academy. He was very introverted and silent, but also very active in learning skills from other Pokémon.

This approach is actually a bit stupid. The Pokémon raised in the Gemini Academy are all Pokémon that have no ability to survive in the wild and cannot be released. They are weak in themselves, and the efficiency of teaching them skills is low.

Moreover, each Pokémon has a limited number of skills that can be learned, and the same goes for Gullfowl. There are some skills that cannot be mastered no matter what, but he doesn't know which ones he can and which ones he can't, and he is wasting his efforts foolishly.

Recently, the long-winged gull has done even stranger things.

Two months ago, Long-winged Gull followed the team to Golden Yellow City to participate in an entertainment competition, and after returning, he was inexplicably filled with melancholy.

I originally thought it was because he was not allowed to play in the competition, but the long-winged gull has never had a strong desire to fight, so it shouldn't be the case.

Further down, the long-winged gull disappeared for a long time inexplicably, and when it came back it looked much thinner. Everyone wondered if the long-winged gull had gone to Jinhuang City.

"The long-winged gull left again a while ago and only came back two days ago."

At this point, Amado sighed, "Poor child, now he is so weak that he has to recuperate alone in a small room in the greenhouse."

Hearing the story of the long-winged gull, Shen Qi felt distressed.

Now how to do?

Just reveal your identity and take the long-winged gull away?

However, for safety reasons, Shen Qi used a fake identity when he came to Gemini Academy, saying that he was a trainee student at the Asaba Conservation Area who came to visit and study.

It seemed too abrupt to suddenly say that he had other purposes and was the owner of the long-winged gull.

"Amado."

A call came from behind, and the boy with short dark green hair said that it was time to start preparing today's elf rations.

The elf rations made by Gemini Academy are in a semi-finished state for easy storage and need to be simply prepared when eaten.

It’s like buying a bento at a convenience store, which you have to heat in the microwave before eating.

"Sorry, Qi, I have to leave for a while."

"It's okay. I'll just take a look around. I'll tell the orderly before I let you go. I won't delay your work."

"Sorry, sorry, the hospitality was poor."

Yamato followed Kozaburo away. The Gemini Academy was really short-staffed, so the task of feeding Pokémon basically fell on the two of them.

It was almost lunchtime now, and apart from the students on duty at the Pokémon Park, no one else came and went.

Shen Qi turned his gaze towards a wooden house in the corner of the breeding area.

Compared to the simple wooden houses and sheds for Pokémon to live in, that wooden house was built very neatly and was also equipped with heating.

As Yamato had introduced before, it was a small room for recuperating injured Pokémon.

The long-winged gulls that returned from Golden City were also resting inside.

It was too outrageous for Shen Qi to abruptly state that he was the owner of the long-winged gull and wanted to take him away.

If Amado had been following Shen Qi, the safest approach would have been to return to Golden City first, have Nancy send someone to help negotiate, and then exchange the Pokémon raised in the Golden Gym for the Long-Winged Gull.

Now that Amado and Xiao Saburo have left, Shen Qi wants to meet the long-winged gull first, so that both sides can recognize each other and clarify their relationship.

Otherwise, by the time the Golden Gym sends people over, the long-winged gull will fly away again.

Having made up his mind, Shen Qi walked towards the wooden house a hundred meters away.

The door was locked because they were taking care of a weak Pokémon inside.

Shen Qi went around to the back of the wooden house. There were several windows that were half open for ventilation, and he could easily enter the house from there.

Chapter 653: A Faint Prayer for Rain

Fire energy surged, and sparks exploded underneath themselves.

If Shen Qi hadn't used the [Jet Energy] to fly up, he would have definitely been severely burned by this "burning" attack.

Uh-huh…

Houndoom let out a low roar, and Saburo stood beside him with a Poké Ball in his hand.

"It seems that Amado's judgment was correct. There is indeed something wrong with you."

After all, they are students trained by Team Rocket, and Amado and Kozaburo are much more vigilant and sharp than other teachers and students.

Shen Qi did not respond and carefully sensed his surroundings.

From the bushes behind him, a stream of purple liquid spurted out with dense bubbling sounds.
