The next morning, Qing Wu got up early and took out the recipe for Basic Poffins.
The recipe for these Poffins used only fairly common Berries and medicinal herbs.
While hunting the previous day, Qing Wu had already seen quite a few Berries and medicinal herbs. He had also secretly recorded their locations with the system.
All Qing Wu had to do now was find the Berries and medicinal herbs, then mix them together to make Poffins.
These Poffins would make up for Kecleon's losses.
Qing Wu thoroughly examined Zubat. It had only been hungry for a few days, so there was no major impact.
"Go, Zubat. Use Supersonic to drive away the Rattata."
Around the Berry trees, there were several irritable Rattata preventing Qing Wu from picking the Berries.
Qing Wu immediately had Zubat use Supersonic to chase the Rattata away, successfully defeating them.
"All right, I got the Peachy Fruit." Qing Wu picked a large number of Peachy Fruits.
With these Peachy Fruits, he could make a batch of detoxifying Poffins. On Trial Island, they were an important strategic resource.
"There are still some medicinal herbs I haven't found. Kecleon, keep using Iron Defense." Qing Wu spoke to Kecleon.
Kecleon could not simply use Iron Defense. It had to extend the duration of the move.
Qing Wu tested how long Kecleon could use Iron Defense. It lasted only thirty seconds, which was far from enough.
Iron Defense was a move that increased defense, but it was also an excellent way to train physical strength.
Qing Wu's top priority now was helping Kecleon recover, so training and battles would have to wait.
Besides, Qing Wu currently had Zubat as a Tool Pet. He only needed to train it properly.
After a full day, Qing Wu and Zubat had practically covered the outskirts of the entire forest before finally gathering all the medicinal herbs.
With the system's assistance, he successfully completed a batch of orange Poffins.
Qing Wu placed a Poffin in his hand. A cool sensation radiated from his palm, carrying a faint, fruity fragrance.
Looking at the Poffin through the sunlight, he saw that its surface was perfectly smooth and its center clear and bright, like a flawless gem.
"I didn't expect even Basic Poffins to turn out Flawless Grade. Looks like I haven't gotten rusty after all." Qing Wu spoke with satisfaction.
In his previous life, he had been a Pokémon Breeding Master capable of making perfectly formed Poffins.
Zubat and Kecleon were both attracted by the fragrance of the Poffins, drooling with hunger.
Zubat and Kecleon even tugged at Qing Wu's trouser leg and shoulder, wanting nothing more than to enjoy the feast.
Qing Wu flicked his fingers toward Zubat and Kecleon's mouths.
The Poffins immediately fell straight into their mouths.
The two Pokémon had long since been unable to hold themselves back. After eating the Poffins, a special sensation began to ripple through their hearts.
This was way too damn delicious!!!
Zubat was once again conquered by Qing Wu's skill. It felt that becoming Qing Wu's Pokémon was not a bad choice.
Kecleon, meanwhile, felt a warm current spreading from its stomach, leaving its entire body pleasantly warm.
After finishing the Poffins, Kecleon fell into a deep sleep.
This meant that the effects of the Basic Poffins had begun to take effect and were repairing Kecleon's foundation.
Zubat contentedly narrowed its eyes halfway. The morning sunlight still left Zubat rather unaccustomed.
Qing Wu knew that Zubat was active at night and rested during the day, so he was adjusting Zubat's sleep schedule as well as its ability to adapt to sunlight.
Otherwise, the other Team Rocket Trial Participants could easily exploit Zubat's weakness of fearing bright light and defeat it.
"These Poffins can only be eaten for half a month at most. After half a month, they won't be of any use to Kecleon or Zubat."
After all, they were only Basic Poffins. Qing Wu naturally knew that they were useful only for some low-level Pokémon.
"Zubat, it's time to start training." Zubat narrowed its eyes halfway, but after seeing Qing Wu's devilish smile, it shuddered.
Qing Wu carefully stored the nearly one hundred and fifty Poffins he had made, enough to last almost five days.
Kecleon had a larger appetite and could eat twenty a day, while Zubat ate ten a day.
Qing Wu would begin Pokémon training after Kecleon had recovered its losses.
"Zubat, let's start with the basics."
Pokémon: Zubat (Green) Gender: Female Level: 12 Type: Poison, Flying Ability: Infiltrator Held Item: None Egg Moves: Gust (Power=40+Ability Boost Level*20, Flying, Special) Hypnosis (Power=0, Psychic Power, Status) (Power=20, Ground, Special) Basic Skills: Absorb (Power=20, Grass, Special) Tailwind (Power=0, Flying, Status: Increases flying speed for four turns) Supersonic (Power=0, Normal, Status) Scary Face (Power=30, Ghost, Physical) Black Gaze (Power=0, Normal, Status) Poison Fang (Power=50, Poison, Physical) Tutor Moves: Shadow Ball (Power=80, Ghost, Special)
This Zubat's aptitude was quite good. It even knew a powerful move like Shadow Ball.
Qing Wu kept tossing Poffins to Zubat, and Zubat caught every single one.
"Does this count as becoming stronger just by paying to win?" Qing Wu watched as Zubat's mental state improved after finishing the Poffins.
