Spirit Dimension: Fooling Groudon from the Start

Su Yi's eyes shifted. The system said Groudon was now his guardian, which meant Groudon would only act when his life was in danger.

That was such a shame.

If he could fool Groudon into listening to him and making a few more moves under normal circumstances, things would be much more convenient for him!

Using his current conditions to create a better starting point for himself, Su Yi didn't think there was anything wrong with that.

How should he fool it?

Groudon, Cliff Sword...

Got it!

Su Yi came up with an idea.

"Groudon, do you know Kyogre and Rayquaza?"

"Ugh!"

At the mention of Kyogre and Rayquaza, Groudon clearly reacted.

Hehe, good. As long as it reacted, this method was almost certain to work.

"Do you want to fly? Among the legendary Pokémon, it seems like you're the only one who can't fly..."

"Ugh roar..."

At the words "can't fly," Groudon's eyes fixed on Su Yi of their own accord.

An overwhelming Pressure washed over him. Even though he knew Groudon wouldn't hurt him, Su Yi still flinched instinctively.

He definitely couldn't let such a useful helper slip away!

"If you can cooperate with me normally and help me deal with Pokémon or enemies I can't handle, then I promise that, if I get the chance, I'll definitely let you fly too. Or rather, I'll give you the chance to properly teach that guy Kyogre a lesson. How about it?"

"Ugh..."

Let it fly?

Groudon had never even considered that.

Was it possible?

Groudon still had some idea of just how heavy it was.

Still, the thought of teaching Kyogre a lesson made Groudon's heart stir...

That stupid whale—Groudon had long wanted to give it a proper beating!

As though he knew Groudon didn't believe he could make it fly, Su Yi directly brought up the system.

"You might not believe me, but think about it. Wasn't there some unseen power that made you my guardian? That power will keep helping me. If you help me too, it'll be like adding wings to a tiger. Making you fly might not be impossible!"

Su Yi didn't even need a draft to fool Groudon. The words came right out of his mouth.

Groudon hadn't believed his earlier argument, but this one left it even more shaken.

Why? Because among all the powerful ancient legendary Pokémon—excluding ones like Sacred Beasts—it seemed to be the only one that couldn't fly...

How heartless!

"Ugh, ugh roar..."

Groudon let out a low roar, and delight appeared on Su Yi's face. He didn't know exactly what it had said, but knowing the general meaning was enough!

Groudon had agreed!

How wonderful.

"Su Yi, Su Yi!"

Su Yi had just put Groudon back into the Master Ball in the special space when his body outside was shaken.

It turned out his older sister, Su Xiyan, was calling him to go up and explain the lesson...

Seeing that he didn't react and wouldn't answer no matter how she called, she panicked.

Su Xiyan was gorgeous and had an incredible figure, but she was also utterly devoted to spoiling her younger brother!

Su Yi had always had excellent grades, especially in Pokémon theory, where he ranked first in the entire school!

In this senior-year graduation Pokémon Trial, Su Yi was practically the target every male student wanted to surpass!

Su Xiyan was proud of this younger brother, so she worried about him as well.

Once his mind cleared, Su Yi saw Su Xiyan's worried expression and gave her a reassuring look. Filled with confidence, he walked onto the podium!

I even fooled Groudon. Just thinking about it feels amazing!

Of course, fooling it was one thing. If there truly was a way to make Groudon fly, Su Yi would absolutely help it fulfill its dream without hesitation!

After all, it was his guardian!

As soon as he finished going over this Pokémon Exam Paper, the bell rang.

This was already the final class.

It was noon.

Everyone could go home early that afternoon. Those with the means would have their families pay to prepare an initial Pokémon for them, while those without the means would come to school tomorrow to receive their own initial Pokémon.

[The tuition fees differ depending on whether the Pokémon is prepared by the family or by the school.]

They would go home and prepare some food for the Pokémon they hoped to choose, which counted as a supplementary measure.

Su Yi followed Su Xiyan home as well.

They were not biological siblings. Su Yi was an orphan, but he had never lacked paternal or maternal love growing up.

Su Xiyan's parents had taken Su Yi in because they wanted Su Xiyan to have company from a young age.

"So, have you decided which initial Pokémon you want? Tell me once you've made up your mind!"

Su Xiyan did not take Su Yi straight home. Instead, she brought him to the Pokémon League in South Lake Province.

Every province had a Pokémon League responsible for managing all matters related to Pokémon.

It also provided services for purchasing initial Pokémon.

There were many Pokémon of the same type available, so buyers could choose among them.

An ordinary initial Pokémon, such as a Rattata, cost at least fifty thousand Gold Coins.

And that was only for the most ordinary Pokémon, because Rattata had only the single Normal type and could evolve only once.

Ordinary Pokémon capable of evolving twice were even more expensive, even if they had only one type.

Therefore, anyone who came to the Pokémon League to choose an initial Pokémon had to be rich, at the very least!

Su Yi did not hesitate. He would choose from the Starter Trio—Froakie!

Froakie's Frothy Foam could not only be used in battle, but also had other uses. Besides, Greninja after evolving twice was really cool!

"Froakie? I thought you'd choose a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon. You know no less about Pokémon theory than I do. Have you thought this through?"

Su Xiyan looked at her genius younger brother in surprise. It was not that she thought Froakie was bad.

She simply believed that Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon had greater room for development!

"Don't worry, Sis. Don't you know me? When have I ever suffered a loss?"

Su Yi grinned.

On second thought, Su Xiyan figured he was right. She assumed Su Yi wanted to catch a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon himself.

But it did not matter. She decided that if Su Yi still could not catch a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon within a year, she would spend every bit of her savings to get her younger brother a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon in its [initial form].

Because Su Xiyan was a Heavenly King Trainer of South Lake Province and held a distinguished status, she moved through the South Lake Province Pokémon League without obstruction.

As for everyone else?

Sorry, get in line and wait.

Did they really think buying an initial Pokémon from the Pokémon League was so easy?

They had to make a reservation a month in advance.

The League also had to assess the buyer's specific circumstances. In keeping with its responsibility toward Pokémon, it also had to determine whether they would treat the Pokémon well.

"Elite Four Su, this way, please. These are all the Froakie in the South Lake Province Pokémon League."

The person in charge spoke respectfully as he led Su Xiyan and Su Yi to the Froakie habitat.

There were at least thirty or forty Froakie here.

Su Xiyan nodded without speaking. The rest was up to her younger brother.

Su Xiyan truly admired Su Yi from the bottom of her heart.

Her younger brother was even more capable than she was. He would definitely surpass her within a year or two!

A complete brother-doting maniac—she had that kind of inexplicable confidence in her younger brother!

No explanation needed!

She felt that Su Yi had a better eye than even her, a Heavenly King Trainer!

After all, she herself had formed her Pokémon battle team on her younger brother's advice...
