June 8, Pokémon Center.
After a full morning of examinations by Nurse Joy, Zeraora's medical report was finally ready.
Nurse Joy explained Zeraora's medical report to Li Wei in detail.
Although Li Wei knew advanced potion preparation, he only understood the medicinal properties of traditional herbs, not the specifics of medical reports.
As long as Li Wei knew what the illness was, he could prepare a potion to treat it.
But Zeraora's condition was complicated.
Zeraora's injuries were no longer simple burns or frostbite. They had reached deep into the muscles.
There was nothing unusual about lingering injuries like these.
After Lorelei had frozen Red into an ice doll, he had been left with a chronic injury in his right wrist.
He was now gradually treating it by soaking in hot springs.
It wasn't as though Red's right hand couldn't heal completely.
With a year or two of rest, even if a full recovery wasn't guaranteed, recovering ninety-nine percent would be no problem.
The problem was that Red couldn't sit still. He kept practicing his throws, which prevented his wrist injury from healing.
If he hadn't kept soaking in the hot springs on Mt. Silver, his wrist injury would only have grown worse.
The same principle applied to Zeraora.
From here on, recovery would have to come slowly through rest and physical therapy.
Nurse Joy had already drawn up a rough treatment plan.
"For the first three months, we'll focus on medication, physical therapy, and rehabilitation."
"You don't need to worry about the medication. I'll apply to the Pokémon League for it."
"As for physical therapy, didn't the Breeding Center just receive a set of therapy equipment? This is the perfect opportunity to use it."
Nurse Joy was referring to a Cold Therapy Device used to relieve muscle fatigue. It
