Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

"Please wait a moment."

Xia Yan paused for a moment, his expression unchanged, but the unicorn on his shoulder sensed the suppressed anger in his heart and his sneer at the alliance system.

The unicorn gently rubbed against his neck.

Xia Yan let out a breath and said calmly, "I'm fine."

He turned and left.

Behind him, he could faintly hear, "You brat, you're going to be a trainer someday. I'll send you to Pokémon School tomorrow. Study hard, or you'll end up like that guy..."

We walked out of the trainers' building.

The warm sunlight shone on him, but it couldn't penetrate his somewhat chilled heart.

Two Pokémon are the foundation, bank statements are proof of financial resources, donations are contributions to the League, and a ten-year Pokémon reserve fund is the right to receive the initial Pokémon.

A slightly sarcastic smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

"It's another world where 'connections matter'."

"Huh?"

The unicorn tilted its head, its small eyes looking puzzled, not understanding what Xia Yan meant.

"It's okay. Although I didn't have much hope in the first place, reality still gave me a hard slap in the face."

Take the first step.

The alliance's system was more realistic than he had imagined.

His trip to the Trainers Building was originally just something he was trying out.

After all, obtaining a League-certified registered trainer status would make his path as a trainer much easier.

At least, the Pokémon Center is free to use, and there's also free accommodation.

I can only say that the final result was as expected.

They arrived at a general store.

I spent twenty yuan to buy some food.

Most of them are foods that are easy to store and can fill your stomach, with bread being the most common.

Although it tastes terrible, I should be able to eat it for two or three days without any problem.

What he needs to do is find a job that can earn money within the next two or three days.

To avoid wasting time, Xia Yan reluctantly spent 2 yuan to take the bus back to his remote, dilapidated home in the suburbs.

With only a few coins left in his pocket, a total of eleven yuan, he began to consider whether he should find a few opportunities and reasons to "borrow" some more from the scarred man and his gang.

"Forget it, let's not waste time."

Time is not only very important to him now, but even more important to the unicorn worm, whose development period is already very short.

I walked straight into a small grove of trees behind my residence.

For the safety of the residents of Saffron City, the Saffron City Gym, in conjunction with several major companies in Saffron City, conducts periodic clean-up operations on the surrounding forests.

So the woods are relatively safe.

We arrived at the woods.

Place the unicorn on the ground.

Stepping on the soft pile of dead leaves, each step made a "rustling" sound, which the unicorn found novel and made it wriggle its body happily.

Watching the unicorn beetle trying to bite its tail with its mouth, Xia Yan's smile gradually faded, and he adopted a serious expression.

“Unicorn Bug, I will be training you for three days. This will determine whether we can find a suitable job after three days.”

Hearing his voice become somewhat serious, the unicorn stopped and looked up at him.

His eyes looked a little lost.

Xia Yan squatted down and said solemnly, "It will be very tiring and tough during this period, and you may give up at any time, but I will train with you, so you must take it seriously, okay?"

The unicorn beetle nodded subconsciously.

"Very good. Now, do you see that tree? We'll do shuttle run training. The basic goal is twenty laps!"

Chapter Four: Training Together

Among the Pokémon in the initial stages, Weedle's base stats are relatively low.

However, even if it's short, you can still find the tallest among the short ones; speed is its strength.

Furthermore, in a battle, the speed of a Pokémon is an unavoidable factor.

At the same time, running can also improve overall physical fitness.

Twenty round trips, with the distance between the starting point and the target point being about one hundred meters, totaling two kilometers of training.

Upon hearing Xia Yan shout the command "Run!", he and the unicorn darted off together.

The unicorn, which started out full of confidence, began to regret its decision after running five laps.

After running ten laps, its speed noticeably slowed down.

However, it wasn't just him; Xia Yan also slowed down, his face flushed, and his forehead and nose were covered in sweat.

Xia Yan's body was already extremely weak. Before he came to this world, his previous owner was on the verge of death. With such a body, he only ate most of a slice of bread yesterday and was still able to run, which was already quite remarkable.

Seeing that even Xia Yan was working so hard, the unicorn gritted its teeth and persevered.

After fifteen rounds, both the human and the elf were nearing their limits.

Don't be fooled by the fact that two kilometers may not seem long. For one, it's a newly born sprite, and for the other, it's a frail person who could be blown away by the wind. It's definitely a test for them.

This is just the beginning of the first training session. If we can't keep going here, the whole training will fall apart.

"Persist...persist, hold on, and you will be reborn after breaking free from your cocoon."

Xia Yan could almost hear his own heartbeat as he gasped for breath.

Even though he was so exhausted he was almost suffocating, as a trainer, he had to set an example for Weedle, who was training for the first time.

"Waaah!"

The unicorn beetle chirped, as if encouraging itself or cheering on Xia Yan.

at last.

The twenty rounds were completed.

The unicorn collapsed to the ground, exhausted. Xia Yan's chest felt like a bellows, and sweat poured down his face.

Looking at the unicorn lying on the ground, he said intermittently, "Stand...stand up! After running, walk around, otherwise...you won't be able to stand up tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, the unicorn beetle looked aggrieved.

"Waaah..."

It was truly exhausted; if it hadn't seen Xia Yan persevering, it would have given up long ago.

"Get up! Move!"

Xia Yan's voice became very serious and left no room for argument.

Indulging the unicorn at this time is irresponsible.

"Waaah..."

The unicorn shrank back, but faced with Xia Yan's sternness, it still gritted its teeth and stood up.

She followed him, trembling and unsteady.

Ten minutes later.

Xia Yan and the unicorn gradually calmed down, their bodies feeling warm, as if a fire was burning inside them.

"Next, it's time for your training. First, you'll need to improve the accuracy of your silk-spitting. I'll throw stones into the air, and your task is to spit silk to entangle them."

A pile of stones had been placed at his feet.

After basic running training, Unicorn had already realized that this training was not a game; it would be hard and tiring. It could feel it even without further training.

It wanted to try to protest, but every time the thought arose, it suppressed it.

Because Xia Yan was also training with it, and being a human, especially a physically weak one, he was clearly more tired than it.

Xia Yan is persisting, so what reason does it have to give up?

Ultimately, it is training that benefits growth.

"Ready?"

After picking up the stones and confirming that the unicorn was ready, it threw the stones one by one.

Initially, the frequency was low and the speed was slow, but the unicorn's hit rate was very high.

But gradually, as Xia Yan's speed increased and he threw stones one after another, the hit rate of the unicorn bug decreased.

It started to get anxious and became somewhat flustered.

"Calm down, stay calm, and don't panic! Observe the trajectory of the stone before making a move. Sometimes you can choose to give up some things."

Xia Yan's arms bulged as he threw stones, switching between his left and right hands, which required considerable physical strength and arm power from him.

However, his reminder was very effective.

The unicorn gradually calmed down, its small eyes fixed on the stone. Although its hit rate was still not high, it had improved significantly.

At least I'm not in a state of panic anymore.

"Whether it's spinning silk or using a poison needle, accuracy is very important. If you feel that you don't have much silk stored in your body, you can use a poison needle instead."

"Woo!" The unicorn beetle nodded emphatically.

It abandoned spinning silk, and the sharp horns on its head glowed with a purple aura as poisonous needles flew out one after another.

It gradually entered a real training state.

As a unicorn with only two skills, it already has a low margin for error in battles. If the skills cannot hit the enemy, it will undoubtedly be very disadvantageous in battles.
