Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

Not to mention that the electric dragon is currently experiencing some minor control issues.

Perhaps the weak current will turn into a powerful electric shock that could scorch a spirit in the next moment.

Even if the injury isn't too serious, no elf wants to experience being forcibly awake so early in the morning.

Seeing that the electric dragon was in a good position, Tetsuya's gaze then turned to Pidgeot, which was circling high in the sky.

The senior member of this team has also made considerable progress since yesterday.

If we look at it from the perspective of levels, this progress is naturally invisible.

But other data doesn't lie.

The most obvious improvement is in the speed and agility of the eagle.

Tetsuya's expression was somewhat strange.

According to Pidgeot, it was just that it flew a little more "freely" than before, but everything else, such as its posture, remained unchanged.

Zhe didn't quite understand this freedom either.

After all, there are still significant differences in the thinking of humans and elves.

Moreover, in his view, this was somewhat idealistic.

If you can fly faster if you want to be free, then can he fly if he wants to?

Then who can't fly?

However, it was Tokis, the little darling of Pidgeot, who gave a clearer and more concise concept after listening to Pidgeot's insights.

According to Blaziken's waveguide translation, freedom can be roughly understood as not deliberately following the rhythm of the wind, but listening to the body's choices.

Perhaps it's a case of "a forced relationship is never sweet."

With guidance from Suten's Pidgeot, Tetsuya's Pidgeot now needs to change its flight pattern from following the wind to blending into it.

It's like when using the Storm skill.

Even then, however, they avoided rather than integrated with the eagle.

This is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

According to Hidden Eagle, you don't need to fully integrate; you can break through to the Heavenly King level when you've roughly integrated.

Yes, the progress bar description for the sprite is that abstract.

Tetsuya had already given up hope that his Pidgeot would say it would happen soon, as it had said the night before.

He can accept anything from six, seven, or eight months.

As long as it's not just for one or two years, it's fine.

"Beep~"

A somewhat panicked cry came from above.

Tetsuya expressionlessly took out a Poké Ball, recalled it, and then released it again.

Even Pidgeot, a Flying-type Pokémon and a dominant force among bird Pokémon, inevitably loses some balance when it merges with the wind.

There is no way.

The power of nature is far more terrifying than we imagine.

But any gains are a good thing.

Despite the somewhat chaotic process, Pidgeot's speed was slowly increasing with each repetition.

It's important to understand that for Pidgeot, which is known for its speed, even the slightest improvement is extremely difficult.

Every improvement will have a noticeable impact on combat.

Sometimes, it's all about fighting for a fraction of a second.

Training is in full swing.

The only slight drawback is that neither the Electric Dragon nor the Pidgeot's haul this time can serve as a significant reference for the other four companions.

At most, Pokkiss will only learn a little bit about flying.

However, this was not its original focus.

Who made Tetsuya choose the path of a trainer who develops multiple attributes?

If it were a trainer specializing in another attribute, the gains would have made him extremely happy.

After finishing their morning exercise and breakfast, Tetsuya, Genjiro, Ami, and the others said goodbye and left the rest stop on Route 32.

He was preparing to head to the nearby town of Hachibark.

Of course, "not far" is only relative.

After walking for a whole morning and into the afternoon, Tetsuya finally caught a glimpse of Hinoki Town in the distance around 1 p.m.

There, you'll find Slowpokes everywhere.

Whether it was the anime he watched in his previous life or the travel guide he followed in this life, Tetsuya knew perfectly well that there was one thing he absolutely could not do in Azalea Town.

That's bullying Slowpoke.

Perhaps it's nothing special in other places, but in Azalea Town, Slowpoke is like a totem, a divine being.

Legend has it that a long, long time ago, there was a severe drought.

The area around Hinoki Town has been scorching hot under the sun and hasn't seen a drop of rain for months.

At that time, Huipi Town was almost completely dried up.

But one day, a Slowpoke appeared.

It looked up and gave a big yawn.

The next moment, dark clouds filled the sky.

A torrential downpour began instantly.

The town of Hinoki, which was on the verge of extinction, was thus saved.

From then on, the people in this area worshipped Slowpoke like a god.

Of course, this is just a legend.

According to modern Pokémon scholars, Slowpoke doesn't activate Rain Dance by yawning.

It's safe to say that Slowpoke just happened to have some good weather.

Or perhaps that Slowpoke that was passing by was so powerful that it was a Champion or even an Elite Four member.

However, Tetsuya felt that the probability of encountering good weather was much higher.

He might think that way, but he wouldn't try to challenge the customs of a local person.

Moreover, with wild Slowpokes being frantically searched for, Azalea Town is almost becoming the only place where a large number of Slowpokes still live.

The people here have truly done their part in protecting the spirits.

This alone is enough to earn the respect of the trainer community.

"Ok?"

Tetsuya's gaze was involuntarily drawn to a figure flashing past on the street corner.

He narrowed his eyes; that was...

Chapter 340 The Rockets' Trail, Abi and Steel (Edited in 20 minutes)

If Tetsuya's eyes weren't damaged, the man in black who disappeared into the blind spot should be a member of Team Rocket.

As for why it was obvious that the opponent was the Rockets.

He simply couldn't understand why every member of Team Rocket, a dark organization, would have a red "R" mark on their clothes.

Some are ridiculously large.

Isn't this because they're afraid people won't recognize them?

However, from another perspective, it was precisely because of this action by the Rockets that its fame increased significantly.

Don't think that dark organizations don't need fame.

Otherwise, why would there be talk of acknowledging and taking responsibility in the previous life?

Even dark organizations need to absorb fresh blood.

The greater your fame, the more people will join you, creating a virtuous cycle.

It may seem strange for the Black Organization to talk about a virtuous cycle, but that's the reality.

This is what major criminal organizations in various regions do.

Of course, apart from Team Rocket members, other members of large dark organizations generally only wear clothing with organizational characteristics when carrying out missions.

For example, the Lava team's uniform is bright red and has the Lava team logo printed on it.

It roughly resembles a variation of the letter "M", with the sides being thicker.

Or rather, they resemble mountains, representing their goal as the creators of Groudon.

For example, Team Aqua (also known as Team Magma) is Team Aqua's arch-rival.

Their team uniforms are more like sailor suits, with blue and white stripes.

The hats that everyone must wear will be marked with the Ocean Team logo.

It looks like an oval with a small triangular protrusion on its head, from which two bone-like legs grow.

Since they are mortal enemies, Team Ocean's target is naturally Kyogre, the creator of the ocean.

The Rockets are the only dark organization to have turned their team uniforms into their everyday attire.

Tetsuya thinks it's probably also related to the internal policies implemented after Sakaki took over the Rockets.

For every Team Rocket member who gets arrested, the Rockets always find a way to get them out of jail, either through force or bail.

With little to worry about, it became quite common for Rockets players to not resist wearing their team uniforms and even enjoy it.

Even in the Kanto region, people have become quite used to seeing Team Rocket members wearing Team Rocket uniforms.

In some people's words, it's like saying, "You haven't done anything anyway, let's talk about it after you do something."

It might sound a bit negative, but who can blame us when the laws in the Elf World are so lenient?

Furthermore, the Rockets have always adhered to the rule of avoiding harming innocent civilians.

The Elf League certainly didn't want to see this happen.

The story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" from Tetsuya's previous life also applies here.

If this situation is allowed to continue, the league may not be able to respond in time when the Rockets make a big move in the future.

Therefore, the league has also introduced a series of measures in response to the Rockets' behavior.

This includes, but is not limited to, rewarding whistleblowers.

That's why people say Giovanni is amazing; the Rockets have climbed countless levels under his leadership.

Tetsuya touched his chin.

On another note, why is the Rockets in this place?

Although the Hinoki Dojo in Hinoki Town is recognized as one of the eight major dojos in the Johto region, this is not because Hinoki Town has a long history and a developed economy, but simply because the dojo master, Abhi, is extremely powerful.

To put it bluntly, Huipi Town has very few distinctive features.

The only thing worth boasting about is that Mr. Steel has lived here for many years.

Besides that, the Slowpoke Well, where the Slowpoke horde lives, and the charcoal shop, which developed because of the dormant volcano behind it, are relatively well-known.

That's right, it's the charcoal item that increases the power of fire-type moves.

This is the store's exclusive secret recipe.

If it weren't for this, the economic development of Hinoki Town would probably rank near the bottom in the entire Johto region.

So, is the other party's target this charcoal shop?
