Chapter 379: Progress 1
After getting Gyarados's core mastery to full, a notification came up.
---
Ding!
Gyarados core mastery has been mastered.
Ding!
Gyarados Attack stat has been upgraded to S.
Ding!
Gyarados is ranking up to elemental rank. Do you want to extend the rank up?
---
"Yes, extend the rank up," said Axel with a smile. It had ranked up very fast. It must be because his elemental overgrowth had been upgraded. Gyarados had also trained very seriously.
---
Ding!
Please specify the rank up condition.
---
"It should learn a new move and level up Aqua tail to 40."
It was already evening when the notification came up. Axel told all of them to take an early rest. They had been doing the hell training for 2 days now. It was necessary to have proper rest.
###
Next day,
Taruos and Absol were having a very difficult time. They were not used to battling Pokemons, and now they had to fight wild Beedrills and Poliwrath. They fought 2 Beedrills and 2 Poliwrath every morning before they could train on their moves. The first 2 days were brutal. Both of them lost miserably towards them. Axel had told them to fight elemental rank Pokemon, not rare ranks.
He wanted them to get used to fighting higher rank Pokemons. They still lost today, but it was better than before. Axel now realized how much he sheltered his Pokemons. He did train them, but not this harshly. However, his Pokemons were doing better than before.
###
After 4 days,
Beedrill had already learned 'Fire conversion' and 'Bug life'. After learning about the core, it was a smooth sailing. Venusaur had leveled up 'Sunny day' and 'Synthesis' to level 40. At level 40, the power of 'Sunny day' was extreme. It was very hot when Venusaur used it. Level 40 'Synthesis' let it recover 50% of its maximum health, which was huge for Venusaur.
Before, it could only recover 30% of its full health. It also had mastered its grass type core to full. Axel now told it to concentrate on its new move. The concept of the new move was very simple. Just like Beedrill, Venusaur would use 'Sunny day' and 'Synthesis' to recover excess health and store it. It would then use the move to recover instantly when needed.
The concept of this new move was a bit different from Beedrill's 'Bug life'. Beedrill would have to use 'Fire conversion' during the battle and use 'Bug life' also during the battle. However, he wanted Venusaur to store the excess health and recover whenever he wanted. Axel felt that it was possible to do it. It would need to be trained properly, but it was very much possible. These were the only improvements in the past 7 days.
Axel had been totally focusing Charizard to level up 'Ancient power' to level 40. After 7 days of continuous hard work, it had leveled up to 39, which was huge. The pointers from Mamoswine seemed to have been very helpful. The team had learned all the moves that needed to be learned with the help of TMs. They now needed to train hard.
###
After another 7 days,
This was the 14th day of hell training. Both Steelix and Nidorino had learned 'Sand hardening'. Steelix had also leveled up 'Sand storm' to level 40. With level 40 'Sand storm', the enemy could not properly see the surroundings. The power of the storm had greatly increased, and it was faster than before. Steelix would not be buffed with it, so it was favorable.
Nidorino's 'Sandstorm' had not leveled up to 40. It was not a ground type yet, and it would be buffed with its attack. So, the progress of the move was slower. However, it was still able to level it up to 30. It had been able to level up 'Poison spread' and 'Poison damage transfer' to level 40.
With this, it was able to use this move towards 3 Pokemons simultaneously. Pidgeotto had learned all the moves that Axel had told it to and had also been able to level up 'Brave bird' to level 25.
---
Ding!
Pidgeotto's attack stat has been upgraded to rank S.
Ding!
Pidgeotto is evolving. Do you want to extend the evolution?
---
Axel was happy with this development. He wanted it to level up faster and become stronger. It was the youngest and the weakest Pokemon on his team, but that didn't mean that it didn't train hard. Due to Shedinja's influence, it had become a training maniac.
"Extend the evolution."
---
Ding!
Please specify the evolution condition.
---
"All of its stats should be rank S."
It was just a common rank Pokemon, so Axel didn't put any harsh condition on its evolution. Axel believed that it would evolve in 2 weeks.
###
Shedinja was able to level up 'Hypnosis' to level 40. Axel wanted this move to be more effective and powerful. 'Hypnosis' was a sound-based attack that would put a target to sleep. The power of 'Hypnosis' would be higher during night time, but it would be lower during the day time.
Axel wanted to bridge that gap, and he wanted 'Hypnosis' during the day time to be as effective as at night. Shedinja trained a lot for it, but it was not able to do so. However, the move did level up to 40, and it was more powerful than before.
Before, the power of 'Hypnosis' was non-existent during the day time if it was fighting a Pokemon of its own rank. Now, it could affect the Pokemon and may make it go to sleep. 'Agility' and 'Gravity' also leveled up to 40. Shedinja can now use 'Agility' 4 times. 'Gravity' had become interesting. Before it was only able to increase the gravity around it, and now it could use reverse gravity.
This would decrease the gravity around it. However, it was still not able to use the reverse gravity on itself. It could only use it around it and towards its enemies. This was still usable while fighting with the enemies. Shedinja could use it to disrupt the speed balance of its enemies. Axel had told it to train this move so that it could use it for itself.
'Substitute' and 'Shadow control' were still left to be leveled up. 'Shadow control' would use the shadow of the enemy Pokemon and then create shadow tentacles to bind them. It was a creative move. Axel wanted it to use the shadow of the surrounding too when using the move. Shedinja trained in this concept for 2 whole weeks, but the result was not satisfactory.
"Hmm... maybe using the surrounding's shadow is too much for it at its current level. I need to change the concept of this move," mumbled Axel to himself.
"Marcus, let's change the concept of the move. I feel that right now, you cannot use the surrounding's shadow to your advantage," said Axel.
It could use the surrounding's shadow but only when using 'Shadow domain'. 'Shadow domain' was an overpowered move that would take a lot of its core's power and its stamina. After discussing for some time, they came up with a new idea.
Instead of using the surrounding's shadow to power up the move, why not use it offensively? 'Shadow control' would now have tentacles made of shadow with a small change. The tentacles would have mini blades all over them. It would not pierce the target but would shred them. Axel didn't know how powerful the shredding would be, but it would be an upgrade to the current 'Shadow control'.
'Substitute', on the other hand, had some progress. Shedinja still could not let its substitutes use moves like it does, but the substitutes were getting flexible. It may be due to raising its level to 50 or the concept of the move being hard, Shedinja was not able to level it up till now.
All the things were going smoothly except for ability training. Except for Nidorino, all of their abilities were now 100%, but none of them were able to rank it up to mastered except for Charizard. Nidorino's ability 'Poison point' was at 98% now. It was quite behind on ability training, so it would take some time to reach mastered.
However, reaching mastered seemed to be impossible right now. Axel had repeatedly focused on them to concentrate on ability training, yet there were no results. Charizard was able to master it due to the system's reward, so Axel didn't even know how to do it manually. He had asked the system about it, but the system was not responding to his questions. He didn't think that other trainers would have any knowledge about it. He was only able to know about it due to the system.
Axel had also taken a chance and asked Oak about the issue, but the famous Prof. Oak also didn't have any knowledge about this issue. Ranking ability from 100% to mastered would boost his Pokemon's stats when they reach king rank. Axel was sure of it. He just didn't know how to do it.
Then it hit him. There was one Pokemon who had mastered its ability except for Charizard. It was Amanda's Butterfree. He could just ask her.
Tring.. Tring.. Tring.. Tring..
"Hello, Axel."
"Hey Amanda, can you come to the same place? I need your help."
