The next day, Eichi was awakened by Shi Xiaoming knocking on his door.
After traveling outside for so long, he had been getting up late every morning, and his body clock had changed.

Eichi was going to train Scyther and Beedrill.
They had been out for so long without any proper training. They were practically getting rusty.
Every day, he had been muddleheadedly
