Hu Jiaxing rolled his eyes at Hu Bin. "Whatever else I am, I'm still your dad. I used to hide my identity as an Elite Four member, but now that I've laid my cards on the table, there's no more pretending. Of course I'll call on my own connections to get you a good Pokémon."
Hu Bin asked curiously, "Dad, what kind of ridiculously awesome Pokémon is it?"
Hu Jiaxing put on a mysterious air. "I'll tell you after you finish this month of training with me and beat your uncle. We have to keep a little mystery."
Hu Bin glanced at Hu Jiaxing. "Day in, day out, all you do is act mysterious. Fine, don't tell me. Can you at least tell me what training I have to complete this month?"
"Not much, but it's tough. You'll need to keep practicing even afterward. These are all requirements for becoming an Elite Four member. First, you've already completed flight training. Next come riding, combat, firearms, driving, and endurance training. Just those six major categories. They're not difficult in themselves, but you're short on time. Today's flight training was manageable, but the later ones, like combat, will be much harder."
Hu Jiaxing had intended to make Hu Bin understand just how difficult the rest of his training could be. Since Hu Bin had asked, he naturally had to give him a warning and push him to keep working hard.
At that, Hu Bin's expression relaxed. That's it? The basic qualifications for an Elite Four member? Combat? How does he think I earned the nickname "human Pokémon"? That won't be a challenge at all.
*Driving goes without saying. I bought my Driving Proficiency from the system shop, and it works amazingly well. Otherwise, I couldn't have driven the Motorhome all over the
