After seeing off Poppy, today's unexpected challenger, the Sunshine Gym soon returned to its usual peace and quiet.
With a new Glimmora "instructor" joining the gym, Eevee had been given a little assignment over the past two days-
Try to learn Glimmora's exclusive secret technique, "Glimmora Spin."
While spinning to attack an opponent, it could clear hazards such as Spikes and Sticky Web from its own side of the field, and even use the force of its rotation to spray venom and poison its opponent.
An incredibly dirty move that combined offense and defense.
Still, Qingyu hadn't actually held out much hope of Eevee learning it.
The previous instructors had already tried, after all, with moves such as Breloom's Spore and Kingdra's Draco Meteor...
Although Eevee's Sketch certainly wasn't entirely legal, it seemed it wasn't quite that illegal, either.
For instance, it couldn't produce mushroom spores out of thin air or gather Dragon-type energy, so those attempts had ultimately been abandoned.
The only move it had learned, Toxic, still required it to Terastallize into a Poison type before it could use it.
So Qingyu was only having Eevee give this a try. It was no big deal if it couldn't learn the move.
After quickly recovering its stamina with a Full Restore, Instructor Glimmora was demonstrating its signature move to Eevee on the training field.
With a "whoosh," Glimmora immediately began spinning in place, spraying the venom that seeped from its body in every direction.

Standing beside Qingyu, Riolu instinctively dodged, moving so fast it left an afterimage as it avoided every drop of venom Glimmora sprayed.
I see. Watching from here also lets me simulate situations in an actual battle and stay focused at all times?
Riolu nodded. This really was a good training method.
But as it
