Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

But Nobuhiko now seems to be completely unaffected.

Tetsuya was amazed by this.

Although his physical abilities are superior to Nobuhiko's, he certainly wouldn't have been able to do this.

In terms of a fighter's conviction, Nobuhiko is far superior to Tetsuya.

The main reason is that Tetsuya isn't interested in self-torture-style training under a waterfall; otherwise, it would be a decent form of exercise.

"Galdorei".

Thinking of this, Tetsuya called out to his own spirit.

Although I'm not really interested in it myself, I might give it a try if it's a partner, especially Gallade.

"Ledo"

Gallade, who was practicing her swordsmanship by slashing through the void, teleported over in a daze.

Tetsuya pointed to the waterfall: "You saw Nobuhiko's Pokémon training this morning, right? Why don't you give it a try?"

"Ledo"

Upon hearing about this, Gallade quickly nodded in agreement.

It had wanted to try it for a long time, but it hadn't because Zhe hadn't said anything.

"I suggest starting from the bottom over there, otherwise it will be too much pressure for this little guy who is only at the elite level."

Nobuhiko was pointing things out from the side.

In the direction he was referring to, there was an L-shaped rock protruding from the rock wall behind the waterfall, blocking a significant portion of the waterfall's force.

"It's okay, Gallade can handle it."

Tetsuya had considerable faith in Nobuhiko's advice.

Gallade also raised her elbow blade to show that she could do it.

Nobuhiko was about to say a few more words, but he shut his mouth the next moment.

He thought of Tetsuya's spirits, most of whom were somewhat "abnormal".

Perhaps this Gallade will surprise him with some performances.

Instead of using psychic powers to fly into the waterfall, Gallade submerged itself in the water and slowly moved towards it.

The closer you are to the waterfall, the greater the impact of the water flow.

But Gallade's seemingly slender legs stood firmly in the water and continued to approach.

"boom"

Gallade's ears were filled with the sound of water rushing down.

Sensing the intense impact not far away, its eyes gleamed with eager anticipation.

"Ledo"

It carefully used its telekinetic powers to estimate the impact of the waterfall.

The blue-purple light turned into specks of light and dissipated into the air a few seconds after hitting the waterfall.

That's alright, Gallade made a very calm judgment.

Without further hesitation, it stepped into the waterfall on the side.

As its body sank, it instantly felt the power of nature.

The pressure from all directions and the pain throughout its body told it that this was not a place to stay for long.

But it is precisely because of this that Gallade's pride is further aroused.

"Ledo"

It struggled to straighten its body against the surging water.

"They adapted way too fast," Nobuhiko's lips twitched uncontrollably.

Normally, an elite-level Pokémon should gradually get used to this training method.

It starts with the L-shaped rock he mentioned, then moves to the areas on either side where the water flow is less intense, and finally to the very center.

Gallade completely ignored the first two steps and went straight to the last one.

Fortunately, it didn't surprise Nobuhiko any further.

Under the continuous impact of the waterfall, Gallade's body, which had just straightened up, quickly bent over again.

"Blazing Chicken, come here for a second."

The data stream, invisible to others, flickered in Tetsuya's eyes, and he called over another of his partners.

"Down"

Blaziken immediately stopped its leg thrashing.

The moment it stopped, the rock in front of it shattered completely.

Countless small stones of similar size speak to the Blaziken's perfect mastery of its own power.

This is just its daily exercise.

Tetsuya casually pulled out a drawing board: "Use Aura to tell Gallade to distribute its psychic powers around its body according to this pattern. Here and here, a strong psychic ability is required. Here, the intensity should be maintained at about 1.3 times the normal strength..."

Ignoring Nobuhiko's strange gaze, he frantically scribbled something on the canvas.

Blaziken nodded from time to time as it listened to Tetsuya's instructions.

The blue light representing the waveguide appeared in its eyes.

"I said, can your elf understand these things?"

After getting dressed, Nobuhiko came to Tetsuya's side and fell into deep thought as he looked at the densely covered drawing board.

Tetsuya nodded matter-of-factly: "Sure, I've been teaching them all along."

Nobuhiko gave a slightly awkward yet polite smile.

Can you say that even he, as a trainer, didn't understand it?

Why would anyone break down exercise into such a thing? Nobuhiko, who isn't good at theory, really finds Tetsuya's thinking hard to understand.

He understood that this was probably why Tetsuya's companions' strength had improved so quickly.

But understanding it is useless; this method is not something a normal person can learn and use.

Under Tetsuya's guidance and Blaziken's explanation, psychic powers gradually enveloped Gallade's body.

If instruments were used to detect it, it would be found that the strength of the superpowers on each part of his body is not the same.

It was these varying degrees of psychic power that gave Gallade some cushioning against the impact of the waterfall.

Its body straightened up again.

However, the price is that Gallade's psychic powers are also diminishing at an alarming rate.

"Boom"

After holding on for about half an hour, Gallade finally collapsed weakly into the pool.

Without Tetsuya saying anything more, Monarch Serpent immediately brought it up with his vine whip.

As Tetsuya pulled out a bunch of things, he asked Gallade, "How does it feel?"

"Quite good."

Gallade closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down, and managed to reply with difficulty.

Although it was physically and mentally exhausted, it could feel the benefits of the exercise.

It's not just the body's spontaneous improvement after being subjected to pressure, but also the enhancement brought about by meditation after using up superpowers.

Gallade was quite pleased with this visible progress.

"I'll come back here to train for a while after everything is over."

Tetsuya made a decision quickly.

The simulation results provided by Zero greatly impressed him.

With about a month of targeted training, Gallade will progress at an incredibly fast pace and reach the threshold of becoming a near-Elite Four member.

Furthermore, they can take the opportunity to train Ice Vulpix and Bogarman nearby.

For the other spirits, it's mostly about accumulating progress over time.

"Dinner is ready."

Xiao Gang called out loudly from over there.

He still had a hard time, as there were quite a few people and elves here.

"Take a good rest."

Tetsuya patted Gallade and then walked straight to the simple dining table.

During the meal, he didn't forget to mention to the two of them that he had found the Dragon Fang and the Dragon Scale.

Undoubtedly, they all expressed great envy and jealousy.

"That's not right."

Compared to Nobuhiko, who was eating voraciously, Kogang was much more quick-witted.

"I remember the Dragon Ascension Ceremony in Yanmo City is coming up soon, could it be...?"

He looked at Tetsuya with some surprise.

Tetsuya chuckled: "I saved someone during a mission once, and he gave me the token he used to participate in the Rising Dragon Ceremony."

Chapter 446 Ninja Town, Kaji (Edited in half an hour, by accident)

"Tsk, you're really lucky."

Xiaogang and Xinyan both expressed their envy.

Although participating in the Rising Dragon Ceremony does not guarantee entry into the Dragon's Lair in Yanmo City, given Tetsuya's strength and potential, they do not believe he cannot make it into the top ten and secure a spot.

Even though the allure of Dragon-type Pokémon is incredibly strong, and so many trainers want to participate in the Dragon Rising Ceremony every year, it's still the same.

Furthermore, the process of obtaining the token will eliminate a significant number of trainers.

Elite Four level Pokémon are not that common, and Tetsuya's Pokémon are quite strong.

Once inside the dragon's lair, in order to impress those proud and powerful dragon-type Pokémon and gain their approval, besides having sufficient strength, dragon fangs and dragon scales will undoubtedly play a significant role.

They didn't have much interest in entering the dragon's lair.

Given their backgrounds and abilities, capturing a decent Dragon-type Pokémon wouldn't be too difficult, if not easy.

Tetsuya remembered clearly that there were two eggs of Pokémon whose final forms were of the Dragon type in the breeding room of Pewter City's gym, namely Trapinch and Jangmo-o.

Especially the latter.

Currently, only the Alola region has shown signs of life for Jangmo-o. Its final form, Kommo-o, is considered to be on par with Dragonite from Kanto and Tyranitar from Johto, which is what people often refer to as pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

If it weren't for the fact that Pewter City Gym is one of the eight oldest gyms in the Kanto region with extensive connections and business dealings, such a Pokémon wouldn't be in the Pewter City Gym's breeding room.

After all, the Dragon/Fighting Kommo-o and the Rock-type Pewter Gym are not very compatible.

In the Kanto region, Kommo-o from Alola might be worth significantly more than Dragonite.

Even though he had a Dragon-type Pokémon at home, Brock didn't think about breeding Kommo-o himself.

"I'm not particularly interested in becoming a trainer, and I'm not very talented at it either."

If we're really going to train someone, Jiro might be more suitable than me.

That's what Xiaogang said.

Tetsuya felt that their styles were indeed consistent, and that Xiaogang sometimes really did tend to be more like an unreliable martial artist.

He hasn't even officially become the dojo master yet, and he's already thinking of pushing the job onto his younger brother.

In a way, this can be considered a deep brotherly bond.
