I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

Currently, Wartortle also lacks a Water-type physical attack move, and Aqua Burst can make up for this.

"Kami?"

Wartortle didn't know why Gary had kept it behind, assuming he was going to assign it new training tasks.

Shigeru stroked Wartortle's head and used the Water Breaker TM on it, a white glow emanating from his palm.

"Kami!"

Wartortle was stunned for a moment. It felt that it had mastered a new skill, the kind that could be used at any time. It felt like it had suddenly awakened a new skill.

"Remember, keep it a secret," Xiao Mao reminded him.

You should know that Psychic-type Pokémon can sense each other's thoughts. If Wartortle talks nonsense in front of that Psychic-type Pokémon and the message gets out, it will be hard to explain.

Of course, even if Wartortle really told Psychic-type Pokémon, and the Psychic-type Pokémon told its trainer, it would most likely not take it seriously and would think it was just Pokémon competing with each other.

Trainers compete to see who has caught the rarest and most powerful Pokémon; similarly, Pokémon compete to see whose trainer is better.

"Kami".

Wartortle nodded in agreement.

"You're awake. Go train and familiarize yourself with the Water Burst technique. Remember to use it even inside the turtle shell. High-speed rotation combined with Water Burst will be very effective," Xiao Mao reminded him.

"Kami".

Wartortle nodded and happily ran off to train, first showing off its newly learned skills to everyone, which made Exeggutor and the others very envious.

Xiao Mao reassured everyone, promising that he would teach them skills in the future, but not now.

The next gym to challenge is the Vermilion Gym.

According to the task issued by the system, the reward skill will definitely be an Electric-type Pokémon, but none of the Pokémon I currently have can master Electric-type skills.

Growlithe can learn Thunder Fang, but the Electric-type move rewarded by the system must be Thunder Fang.

Gary wasn't in a hurry. He already had 43 low-level magical candies, which seemed like he could use some. Lt. Surge of Vermilion City Gym was quite strong, and his Raichu should be over level 30.

It will take about half a month to travel from Cerulean City to Vermilion City. During this time, Gary is confident that he can raise his Pokémon levels to around 25 on average. At this point, using low-level Rare Candies will be the most cost-effective option.

After all, it's easy to level up a spirit before level 30, but the difficulty of leveling up gradually increases after level 30.

...!

For the next five days, Gary stayed in Cerulean City, training his Pokémon every day and occasionally accepting challenges from other trainers. His days were quite fulfilling.

The elves' levels have also increased slightly.

Wartortle LV19-22!

Exeggutor LV21-24!

Butterfly LV18-21!

Scyther LV-23!

Zubat LV22-25!

Growlithe LV5-10!

After Butterfly reached level 21, it awakened the Illusion Ray, which should have been the Blow Away ability.

Mirage Beam is a move that Butterfree awakens at level 16, but it only awakens at level 20. This shows that in the real world, the awakening of moves by Pokémon is completely random. It is possible that as the level increases, moves that were not awakened at a lower level can be awakened.

Scyther was level 15 when it joined the team, and is now level 23, but it has only awakened Shadow Clone, and Double Strike has not been awakened.

Gary also planned to evolve Scizor into Scizor as soon as possible, but unfortunately the Pokémon Department Store in Cerulean City was terrible and didn't have Metal Coat.

So Gary decided to go to Saffron City, which is located between Cerulean City and Vermilion City.

The famous Silver Company headquarters is located in Golden City, so I'm sure the Elf Department Store there must have metal foil.

And today, Xiao Mao's phone also arrived.

The current mobile phone is a traditional gray screen phone, which can only be used to make calls and play some small games, but that is enough for Xiao Mao. The main purpose is to facilitate communication.

Xiao Mao had already obtained a SIM card in advance, and after inserting the card into his phone, it could be used normally.

Having sorted out his phone, Shigeru didn't linger in Cerulean City. In the afternoon, he rode his mountain bike away to Goldenrod City.

After leaving Cerulean City, they hadn't ridden far when a boy wearing a baseball cap blocked their way.

"You're a trainer from Cerulean City, right?" the boy in the baseball cap asked.

“He’s a trainer, but not from Cerulean City,” Gary said.

"As long as you're a trainer, let's have a Pokémon battle," the boy in the baseball cap challenged.

"You look weak, I don't really want to fight you," Xiao Shigeru politely declined.

"What did you say!" The boy in the baseball cap was surprised to be rejected, but he didn't want to give up on battling Shigeru, so he said, "How about this, if you can beat me, I'll tell you where to find a good trainer, okay?"

"Who is this trainer you're talking about?" Shigeru asked, puzzled.

A trainer who impresses a random roadside trainer must be quite strong. After all, who would remember a trainer who defeated them in a roadside Pokémon battle?

Chapter 26: Xiao Ming, the Beast Tamer

"I'll tell you if you beat me first," said the boy in the baseball cap.

"Alright, let's begin."

Since we can't get to Goldenrod City in an afternoon anyway, let's have a battle to pass the time.

"Alright, let's begin. This is my Pokémon." The boy in the baseball cap didn't seem to have any extra Pokémon, so he threw a Poké Ball right away.

Baton!

A little purple mouse makes its appearance.

【LV15 Rattata♀/Normal】

Shigeru shook his head. That was why he didn't want to battle street trainers; they were all too weak.

"Scyther, you're in charge of dealing with it." Gary knew his Pokémon were quite warlike, so he would send them out to battle in order each time. This time it was Scyther's turn.

"twitter!!".

The flying mantis raised its large scythe high, adopting the starting stance of the Mantis Fist, striking a menacing pose.

"La...!" Rattata tensed up when it saw the tall Scyther; tall creatures naturally exude an aura of intimidation.

"A flash of lightning!"

Xiao Mao and the boy in the baseball cap issued the command almost simultaneously.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

Two figures charged forward at high speed, their phases surging.

boom! !

As expected, Rattata was knocked away. There was a huge gap between the two sides in terms of both level and individual size. Scyther rushed over with a Flash of Light and instantly killed Rattata.

"Wow...that's strong!" The boy in the baseball cap exclaimed in amazement, his little Rattata completely powerless against him.

"Scizor, come back." Gary recalled Scizor and asked, "Now you can tell me who the trainer you were talking about is."

The boy in the baseball cap also recalled his Rattata and truthfully reported: "That person is called Xiaoming, and he is known as the Beastmaster by the trainers in the vicinity. He has already achieved a 77-win streak."

Xiao Mao was taken aback; it turned out to be Xiao Ming.

Xiao Mao had a deep impression of Xiao Ming. Xiao Ming had a very strong Sandshrew, and he had set a strict training program for his Pokémon, setting a goal of achieving 100 consecutive wins before starting his journey.

It has to be said that Gary admires Demi-Man, who is a true trainer. Ash is far inferior to Demi-Man at present.

Unfortunately, Xiaoming never reappeared after that, and he didn't even participate in the Quartz Conference.

[Ding! Mission issued: Interrupt Beast Master Xiaoming's 100-win streak / Reward: 5 Medium Magic Candies (for Pokémon below level 50, increases level by 1)]

Oh my god, a mission has arrived!

Xiao Mao didn't plan to go find Xiao Ming. After all, Xiao Ming's seventy-seven-game winning streak was no easy feat, and if it were to end, he would have to start all over again.

However, with the mission approaching, Shigeru had no choice but to take the blame.

Furthermore, Xiaoming was able to obtain a mid-level magical candy after defeating the ferocious beast, which indirectly proves that Xiaoming's strength is not weak.

"Where is Xiaoming?" Xiaomao asked.

"Just keep walking along this road, and you'll see the dojo that Xiaoming built," the boy in the baseball cap pointed to a path.

"Thanks!"

Xiao Mao rode his mountain bike and followed the path pointed out by the boy in the baseball cap. Before he had gone very far, Xiao Mao saw the wooden fence.

"Wartorium, come out for a moment." Shigeru released Wartorium.

"Kami?"

Wartortle looked around and saw that there were no enemies and that no one had come out with it, so it didn't understand why Gary had let it out.

"You're going to battle a Trainer later, so let me boost your strength." Gary stroked Wartortle's head and used a low-level Rare Candy on it.

Wartortle LV22-30!

Wartortle's level instantly jumped to level 30.

Xiao Shigeru also took a look at Wartortle's stats to see if it had awakened any new skills.
