Dratini was determined to grow stronger, too, and took training especially seriously!
Dratini carefully practiced Flamethrower!
Hu Bin did not sit idle, either. He opened his laptop and watched battle videos of Legendary Trainers from countries around the world throughout the years, learning from their valuable experience.
Hu Bin studied in that boiler-room heat, sweat pouring down his back. Even his laptop was starting to smoke!
Seeing him like that, Combusken and Dratini felt too embarrassed to slack off. Our trainer is working so hard. What excuse do we have not to keep pushing?
Combusken and Dratini trained even harder!
By the time the grueling training session ended, Hu Bin was utterly miserable from the heat. He had practically bathed in his own sweat.
When he got home, Tapu Koko had returned with Ninetales, too. After Hu Bin chatted with Tapu Koko for a while, Tapu Koko left.
Hu Bin took a shower, then went to bed with his Pokémon.
Dratini jumped into the pool prepared for resting.
The next day, with Nihilego no longer a threat, Hu Bin and the others did not need to get up so early. They enjoyed a lovely lie-in.
They did not get up until eight, taking their sweet time before washing up.
Hu Bin started cooking as usual, while Ninetales and Combusken put on instructional videos for Dratini to learn moves.
Watching from the kitchen, Hu Bin felt his eyelid twitch. Do you really have to work this hard? Every last one of you started studying the moment you got up.
Morning really is the best time to get things done!
Soon, Hu Jiaxing and Zhao Lifang got up, too. Even Hu Jiawang came over looking thoroughly pleased with himself. Apparently, things had gone quite well between him and Lina the night before.
