Pokémon: Starting with a strongman and a slacker

"Uncle Zhang, what if he also has the potential to become a future superstar?"

"Of course it's valuable, no less than a small Lada, and perhaps even more so. But the question is, is that even possible?"

Humans can't even identify the species of an elf egg; they can only distinguish them by the patterns on the egg, let alone test its potential.

"Uncle Zhang, because I heard that these are the offspring of two near-elite shrike, so they should have this potential."

"It is said that?"

Zhang De stared at him strangely. Could this kid be going to steal someone else's Pokémon?

"Xiao Jing, you absolutely mustn't go astray! Money is good, but going down the wrong path is like falling into an abyss!"

Bai Jing rolled her eyes. This was really troublesome to explain. She should have waited until the Fiery Sparrow hatched before bringing it.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhang. Although I've been a bit silly, my mindset is very upright, and I won't go astray!"

"How about this, Uncle Zhang? I'll leave the Pokémon egg with you. You can test it after it hatches. If it really has the potential to become a Champion, then you can give me the money back, okay?"

"Okay, if it's really as you say, your uncle will definitely not treat you unfairly!"

It's settled. Spearow will eventually be bought by some trainer, which will be a satisfactory outcome for the Spearow flock.

When I got home, the martial arts school was empty; the students had already finished their classes.

"Mom, we have a new member in the family. Prepare an extra portion of elf food."

The couple walked out excitedly.

"You've caught a new partner? Let's see what kind of Pokémon it is!"

"Heh heh, don't be scared!"

"Leo, come out and meet my parents."

"Yo~ Li-o~~"

The couple was dumbfounded!

"Where...where did you steal this from?"

Bai Jing rolled her eyes. "If you're so capable, why don't you steal one and let me see?"

"no!"

Bai Yutang stared blankly and said, "This is Riolu! It's a Pokémon that's even rarer than pseudo-legendary Pokémon. How did you manage to encounter it?"

"Can't I just be lucky?"

"Well, your luck is truly incredible! By the way, are you really my son? Or did the Bai family's ancestral graves emit auspicious smoke?"

Hua Ying said worriedly, "Son, it's too precious. You have to be careful and make sure you don't attract the attention of hunters."

"Don't worry, Mom, I know!"

Are you targeting me?

Hmph, I'd love for the hunters to come; that way I could earn an extra bounty.

Riolu was annoyed. These two humans were so impolite. Couldn't they even say hello?

"Lu?"

The couple then realized what had happened!

"I'm sorry, Riolu, I've been neglecting you!"

Welcome to this family!

"From now on, Jing'er is in your care!"

"Lulu~~~"

Riolu patted his chest and vowed that anyone who wanted to harm their master would have to step over his dead body!

Hua Ying patted the dog's head, "It's really reliable!"

"Wait here, Mom will go and prepare some delicious food for you!"

Bai Yutang circled around Riolu, praising it repeatedly, "Handsome, so incredibly handsome, just as handsome as me!"

As a fighter, his favorite type is naturally fighting-type Pokémon, and Riolu can be considered the king of fighting-type Pokémon.

As for the lazy otter, the couple simply ignored it; after all, it liked to play dead. Everyone who saw it would find it repulsive!

For dinner, the three people and the two elves sat around the table.

Hua Ying finally remembered the lazy otter and prepared food for it.

"Son, can I borrow Riolu for a few days?"

Bai Jing looked at him warily, "What do you want to do?"

"Of course, we should recruit students! Just have it stand at the door, and we guarantee a steady stream of wealth!"

"Yes, and then they brought trouble upon themselves!"

Hua Ying snapped, "Are you trying to harm our son? You're always giving out terrible ideas!"

Bai Yutang instantly deflated, losing all his temper!

"Dad, give up! Riolu has special training starting tomorrow, he won't have time for you!"

"Oh!"

Riolu also expressed his opposition!

"Fine, never mind!"

Sigh~ As the head of the household, my status in the family is a bit low!

It's one thing if the husband's authority isn't up to par, but that's because the wife is too fierce!

Now even the authority of one's father is no longer valid; what a tragic life!

P.S.: This is the sixth chapter today. If nothing unexpected happens, I will maintain six chapters per day.

Chapter 12 Training Directions for Two Pokémon

The next morning, Bai Jing woke up to find that there were 400,000 Dragon Coins in his card. This was a transfer from Zhang De as payment for the acquisition of Little Rada.

"Uncle Zhang is truly a good friend!"

This number is almost the same as the market price.

So he went to the Pokémon Center again.

How can I help you?

"I want six Luxury Balls, as well as Normal and Fighting-type Pokémon food and Energy Cubes, and a whole set of Recovery Candies."

Poké Balls are divided into: red and white balls, type balls, luxury balls, and special balls.

The regular red and white ball costs 500, which is cheap, but the space inside is very small, making it difficult for the Pokémon to even move around.

This is also why Bai Jing couldn't wait to replace it as soon as she had money; it was too unfair to the elf.

The Attribute Ball costs 2000, has a much more spacious interior, is comparable to a villa, and is designed specifically for the Pokémon's attributes.

The deluxe ball costs 10000 Dragon Coins, and the space inside is truly luxurious, like a manor.

The exclusive ball costs up to 10 Dragon Coins and is also known as the attribute exclusive ball, which is essentially a combination of the attribute ball and the deluxe ball.

Custom-made balls need to be made in advance, meaning they are tailor-made to your specifications.

For example, with Lucario, after you place an order, the seller will create a Poké Ball suitable for your Fighting/Steel-type Lucario based on its attributes.

Custom-made items are naturally more expensive.

A custom-made ball is too extravagant; Bai Jing said he can't afford it right now, a deluxe ball would be fine.

There are recovery candies, anti-numbness candies, and detoxifying candies, etc. These are not expensive, 100 each.

There is also a miracle candy that removes all abnormalities, which is more expensive, costing 1000.

There's also the Vitality Candy that instantly restores stamina, priced at 10000, only the super-rich can afford it.

I bought some miscellaneous items, and the whole shopping spree cost me 200,000 yuan.

The huge sum of money they had just received was immediately halved. That's why people say being a trainer is an expensive profession; ordinary families simply can't afford it.

These are just some necessities. If you want rare items that can enhance a Pokémon's potential or attribute power, such as the attribute gems you found earlier, those are the real luxuries, costing tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

After finishing the purchase, they returned to the wild forest and released two Pokémon.

"Lazy Otter, you haven't forgotten our promise from yesterday, have you?"

The lazy otter nodded in agreement.

“Very good, now I will develop a training plan for you.”

"First is the Sloth. You have high HP and physical attack, plus the Hercules ability, so you're going for close combat. You're training your stamina and attack power."

Bai Jing strapped the weights onto it and continued, "The weights will improve its physique and endurance. You can't take them off during training. It's best to keep them on all the time, even when eating or sleeping."

The lazy otter turned green upon hearing this; wasn't this going to be fatal?

"Don't worry, with your personality, I don't expect you to be able to do that."
