Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off.

He only provided the content from the textbook, and even when he changed the formation, it was only a minor adjustment, equivalent to adding another small challenge.

In addition, Natsuno always points out the shortcomings of his challengers and areas for improvement, which makes more and more people want to challenge him.

From morning till night, after a quick meal, he continued to face the challengers. By evening, Natsuno felt completely exhausted and didn't want to move a finger.

"No, we need to share the burden."

Chapter 385 Lu Renjia, we support you as the new museum master.

As he spoke, Natsuno looked at his younger family members and stroked his chin.

"Xiao Cai knows almost all skills, that's great!"

The colorful puppy tilted its head, glistening liquid dribbling from the corner of its mouth: "Tulu, tulu tulu (Can I eat something delicious?)?"

Natsuno didn't respond, but looked at Madoka: "Madoka's muscles have gone to her head, but after watching more, she should know what those standard tactics are all about. To be determined!"

Xiaoyuan was lifting weights while watching videos, still focusing on fitness but not leg exercises.

Xiao Huan flew over on her own initiative, her eyes narrowing into slits: "Xiao Huan can do ducks!"

Xia Ye patted the red duck and expressed great confidence in Xiao Huan's intelligence: "It's definitely capable."

Looking at Xiao Ke, who was intently watching the instructional video and learning how to move at high speed, Xia Ye shook his head helplessly.

"It's fine for Little K to go straight into the fray and fight, but as for tactics... let's not make things difficult for a well-behaved little bird that likes to go all out and risk its life."

To this day, Klein only knows 10 moves. After learning Agility, he still needs to learn Brave Bird to complete all the moves he learned through leveling up.

Then he looked at Xiaomiao, where the kitten was lying next to Xia Ye, its tail swishing back and forth, probably in a good mood.

The aloof kitten's eyes were on Xiao Ke, but her attention was actually on Xia Ye.

Xia Ye had long known that Xiao Miao was just pretending to be indifferent; it was all a tactic, and what she really craved was attention.

The wicked researcher smirked, "As for Xiao Miao..."

Natsuno deliberately dragged out the last syllable, glancing at the kitten's tail, which was now wagging less, clearly indicating it had been listening the whole time.

"Xiao Miao might not be suitable?"

Hearing this, the kitten couldn't hold back any longer and jumped up, frantically punching Natsuno's thigh with its little fists.

The average height of the Meowth is only 60 centimeters. For Meowth to be able to hit Natsuno's thigh is still too much of an effort.

'Natsuno, Xiaomiao is amazing! There's nothing she's not suited for!'

Natsuno hugged the cute little kitten and stroked it repeatedly. The aloof kitten instantly transformed into a motorcycle, purring loudly.

"Yes, Xiao Miao is very capable, so count you in too."

Mewtwo is currently transforming into a cell egg and exercising its arms with Madoka. Natsuno shakes his head and looks at Mewtwo, who is meditating.

"Xiaomeng is also a very suitable choice. Looking at it this way, everyone in the family has a unique skill."

Thinking of this, Natsuno took out his phone, and the communication was with Ichiju Tenno in the next room.

Although it was only a few steps, Natsuno really couldn't walk anymore.

Kazuki walked heavily into Natsuno's room and was taken aback when he heard his thoughts.

"What? You want your Pokémon to be trainer examiners too? Is that right?"

Natsuno was enjoying a full-body muscle massage from Madoka and Yume, and his expression was very comfortable.

"The exam questions were all based on tactics that were covered in the textbook. They weren't difficult; they were all basic tactics."

"This is what I think. Although I feel very sorry for Aso, everyone in Johto has assumed that Kikyo Gym is the weakest gym."

"Most trainers will make this their first stop. For newcomers, too much difficulty will dampen their morale."

Xia Ye tried to relax his whole body, collapsing into a lump of mud.

"The first badge tests whether the newcomers can apply textbook knowledge to practical use. Those with quick minds can expand on it."

"Learning from books and applying it in real life are two different things. Making them understand that this concept will be very helpful in the future, and combining theory with practice will make it easier to reach the top."

"Tactical innovation is also based on understanding existing tactics, taking into account both tactical and psychological challenges, which is great, isn't it?"

At first, Ichiki thought that Natsuno was just talking nonsense because he was exhausted from facing hundreds of challengers every day.

But after listening carefully to Natsuno's analysis, he fell into deep thought.

Natsuno added fuel to the fire.

"Besides, don't you think times have changed? The old model of only a few people taking on the challenge each day is gone forever."

"It's mainly my fault for lowering the cost of becoming a trainer to the point of being absurd. The number of new trainers will only increase in the future."

"One gym leader is simply not enough. Dealing with hundreds of challengers a day, even someone with Shadow Clone Technique would be exhausted."

"Moreover, it's simply impossible to handle hundreds of challengers a day; you can only manage a few dozen from morning till night."

Upon hearing what Natsuno said, Ichiki felt sore all over and extremely uncomfortable.

"In conclusion, reform of the dojo may be inevitable; it must adapt to the changing times."

"Or, eliminate more trainers and raise the bar for obtaining badges?"

"But that's just bullshit. My original intention was to help more people become trainers."

Xia Ye shook his head repeatedly: "Anyway, I'm already exhausted. If I'm not here, your workload will double, wouldn't that be even worse?"

Upon hearing this, Yishu couldn't help but shudder: "I think you have a point."

"I'll report to the alliance right now, explain the situation, and see how to resolve it."

Xia Ye waved his hand: "Hurry up. If you don't want to work yourself to death, at least get through this period first."

Yishu said he understood and quickly went back to hold an online meeting.

Meanwhile, online in the Johto region, new trainers who had challenged the Kikyo Gym shared their thoughts.

[Lu Renjia, the new leader of the Kikyo Dojo, is really strong. It feels like my growth path has become much clearer after the challenge!]

The test questions were all based on classic tactics from the textbook, plus minor adjustments, which greatly improved my adaptability!

[Choosing to challenge the Kikyo Gym first was definitely the right decision! Even without getting the badge, I've improved a lot. Keep it up!]

The next day, the trainers who went to the Kikyo Gym discovered a new change.

However, two more challenge arenas for the gym leader were set up next to Natsuno and Ichiki.

"Another trainer has become a gym leader?"

The boys approached and stared wide-eyed: "Where's the person? There's only a Tutu dog?"

"Me too, no one's here. The one standing in the Trainer's spot is a Psychic Pokémon!"

The newlyweds were buzzing with discussion when they heard Natsuno start speaking with all his might.

"Everyone, these partners are also badge examiners at the Violet City Gym. Please don't underestimate them; they are all powerful Pokémon."

"From now on, whether you challenge a human or a Pokémon, as long as you are a Badge Examiner, you will receive a badge directly upon passing!"

The boys and girls widened their eyes instantly and looked at Xiao Cai, a harmless-looking Tu Tu dog with big white teeth.

And then there's Xiao Huan, who transforms from Polygonus Type 2 into a Coldwater Monkey, and looks just like any other ordinary person.

The boys were eager to try their luck: "If that's the case, I'll take the badge!"

Even by evening, the reputation of Kikyo Dojo on the internet was still rising.

[Lu Renjia, just give the order, and we'll support you in becoming the new Kikyo Gym Leader!]

Chapter 386 Let go of that girl

[How can there be such a beginner-friendly gym like the Kikyo Gym? You can improve no matter what!]

[Since going to the Kikyo Gym, my back and legs don't ache anymore, and I have more energy for battles!]

Netizens were very puzzled by the cryptic remarks made by these new trainers.

But everyone kept their mouths shut and didn't tell anyone else the truth.

Please, is it something to be proud of to be thrashed in an assessment battle by a flying Pokémon commanded by a Smeargle, a Water Monkey, a Explosive Monkey, and a Cocoyasis?

How am I supposed to face the Johto battle community if word gets out? I'd rather trick more people into getting a beating!

Driven by the mentality of "I've suffered so much, you can't miss out," the newlyweds raved about Kikyo Dojo.

They spouted all sorts of nonsense, saying things like, "If you don't challenge Kikyo in this lifetime, you've clearly wasted your life as a trainer."

This has led many newcomers who live a bit far from Violet City to decide that even if it means taking a longer route, they still want to see what the Violet City Gym is all about!

As a result, when daytime came, the number of people that Natsuno had expected did not decrease; instead, the number of challengers increased.

They simply opened two more arenas for head-to-head battles, with everyone participating!

While Natsuno was doing well as the gym leader, the others were also making strides elsewhere.

Yuanzhu City, Burnt Tower.

Ajin chased after Xiaoyin as they climbed upwards.

The former shouted loudly, while the latter remained silent with a cold face.

Although it was a charred tower, it wasn't burned to ashes, and the wooden structure remained intact. The two boys chased after it without incident.

Halfway up, Silver finally couldn't stand Gold anymore, turned around and threw a Poké Ball, and Crocodile launched a charged attack.

"water gun!"

Ajin was prepared, and the Cinderace beside him spat out sparks at his command, canceling out the attack and causing water vapor to rise.

Ah Jin flicked his nose with his thumb, looking rather smug.

"Grandpa, I knew you'd pull this trick. Don't even think about shaking me off!"

Xiao Yin looked down at Ah Jin, who was making faces at her, and a crack appeared in her usually stern expression.

"What exactly do you want by following me? I'm not returning the Blue Crocodile."

"Besides, Blue Crocodile has already decided to truly become my partner, and you can't go against his wishes."
