Aron's Habits (Please Bookmark, Recommend, and Vote!)

Less than three minutes after Jiang Jing left, two slender, curvaceous girls in pretty outfits were also looking at the banner for the Second Suicune Cup Pokémon Challenge inside Cerulean Pokémon Supermarket.

One of them, wearing a pink dress, said, "There's a competition—the Second Suicune Cup Pokémon Challenge."

"I remember you wanted to join last year. Now that you have a Pokémon, do you want to go have some fun?"

Her companion stared at the advertisement with her beautiful eyes and thought for a moment. "Twenty thousand yuan is a little low, but it would still be meaningful to battle and interact with other people, gain some experience."

"I just hope there'll be stronger opponents. I'm worried the prize money is too low, so not many Trainers will participate."

While they were chatting, two other people not far away were also talking.

One of them, a chubby teenager, bent over and grinned at the sunglasses-wearing youth beside him, who was dressed in trendy brands. "Boss, this supermarket is holding a Pokémon Challenge. Do you want to participate?"

The sunglasses-wearing youth said disdainfully, "The rewards are way too little. They aren't even enough for a few days of my allowance. Are they trying to fob off beggars? Still, if I'm bored by then, maybe I'll come teach some noobs a lesson."

"I'll give them a proper lesson and let them know what a real Trainer is."

"Fatty, register both you and me. Let me know when the competition starts."

Fatty said, "Got it, Boss. Leave it to me."

After returning home, Jiang Jing directly tagged Liu Bin on WeChat and sent him the official account as well.

Jiang Jing patted Liu Bin.

Jiang Jing: "Hurry up and register for the Second Suicune Cup Pokémon Challenge. The two of us will participate when the time comes."

Liu Bin said, "Let me take a look. Sure, I'll sign up too. These rewards are pretty good."

"Damn, I've only just realized that being a Trainer really costs money. Yesterday, I went to the Pokémon Supermarket, and just buying food and fresh milk cost me a thousand yuan."

"That used to be my monthly allowance. I spent it all on one Pokémon, and this is only the beginning. What am I supposed to do in the future?"

"So I have to enter this competition. Damn it, I'm definitely getting into the top three. I said it—even Jesus won't stop me."

After putting down his phone, Jiang Jing picked Aron up.

It felt slightly heavier, while its skin was as hard as ever.

Aron braced itself against Jiang Jing's body. It was still young and liked sticking close to its owner.

After a while, bored out of its mind, it jumped onto the floor and spotted a brown wooden pillar with a ten-centimeter radius in the distance. A punching target was tied to it.

Jiang Jing had made it when he was bored and wanted to practice boxing.

Aron suddenly accelerated and charged out, then rammed its head straight into the pillar.

Bang!

The sound startled Jiang Jing. He immediately leaped off the bed, looked at Aron, and asked, "What happened?"

Aron was bounced away and landed on its butt on the floor, looking adorably dazed.

Its head was a little dizzy, but its whole body felt loosened up. It wanted to ram into it again.

Bang!

The wooden pillar shook violently, as if it were about to topple over.

Jiang Jing hurried over, picked Aron up, and asked, "Aron, what are you doing?"

Aron pointed at the pillar with its little hand, then tapped its own head. Its limbs flailed forcefully in the air as it let out whimpering cries.

Jiang Jing froze at the gesture. He seemed to understand what Aron meant. Was that really it? Or was it just his imagination?

So he asked, "You want to ram that pillar?"

What a strange hobby. But seeing how much it liked it, how could he refuse?

So he adjusted the height of the punching target, set it on the floor, and put Aron down. The moment it landed, it charged forward.

Its body slammed headfirst into the target and was bounced away.

Yet it happily climbed back up and rammed it again, tireless and completely absorbed in playing.

Curious, Jiang Jing could only turn to the all-powerful Douyin. He opened it and searched for "Aron."

The first video that appeared showed a gym training room in the background. A burly, resolute-looking middle-aged man in a black training uniform stood beside an Aron.

This Aron was stronger than his own in both size and the texture of its armor.

Then he looked at the username: Rongcheng Steel Gym Leader—Chen Feng.

He opened the man's profile. Yep, blue official verification. It was genuine. He had posted more than 160 videos and had over three million followers.

This video currently had over six hundred thousand likes and two hundred and fifty thousand saves.

The title of this video was: Aron (1)

The content was about Aron. The middle-aged man, Chen Feng, said, "Hello, everyone. Today, we'll mainly be talking about the Steel- and Rock-type Pokémon—Aron."

"Aron is a Steel- and Rock-type Armor Pokémon. Its Abilities are Sturdy and Rock Head."

"Its evolutions are Lairon, Aggron, and its Mega Evolution, Mega Aggron."

"Trainers who have Aron should take note. Aron lives by eating Ore, and it usually likes ramming rocks to Hone Claws its armor."

"So don't be too surprised when you see Aron ramming hard objects."

"You should even let them ram into things more often, as it helps train their defensive power."

"At the same time, it can also train one of their moves: Tackle."

"This is their innate habit. Don't be afraid, and don't think they're sick. There's no need to suppress it. Just let nature take its course."

"Next is Aron's demonstration time."

"Aron, use Tackle!"

The Aron beside him stared seriously at the wooden target in the distance, crouched slightly, then exploded forward with all its strength and started running.

It charged out at incredible speed, its smooth head gleaming with a metallic luster as it slammed heavily into the wooden target.

With a crisp bang, the wooden target instantly snapped into two pieces, while Aron was completely unharmed.

Jiang Jing's eyes lit up as he praised, "Amazing!"

He then decisively followed Gym Leader Chen Feng, becoming one of his more than three million followers.

Jiang Jing watched Aron continuously ram the target. So this was its habit.

He remembered that the first move Aron could learn should be Tackle.

Thinking back, before level five, Aron could probably only learn three moves: Tackle, Harden, and Mud-Slap.

Aron had already learned Tackle. Although its power did not seem all that impressive, it had at least learned it.

He would treat these ten days as time for it to exercise a little and would not make it undergo physical training.

Lying on the bed, Jiang Jing opened Douyin, intending to relax after watching a few videos.

Suddenly, Liu Bin sent him a message on WeChat.

Liu Bin: "Brother Jing, take a look at the class group chat. That bastard Yao Yuan is showing off again, and Zhu Ziming and those lackeys of his are fucking disgusting."
