Just when the atmosphere was harmonious, Aili came from the backyard carrying a basin of freshly washed Berry. He caught a glimpse of Fluffy's light yellow Torchic on the lawn.
"Torchic? Boss, did you just conquer Pokémon?"
Yushu turned around. "Well, the new member who just arrived home will be a part of our Freewill Ranch from now on."
Aili came closer and took a closer look. "Well... the color of this Torchic is a bit wrong. The normal Torchic is not of this color, right?"
As someone who has worked in the ranch for so long, she still has some understanding of the appearance characteristics of Pokémon.
The normal Torchic feather color is orange-red, and the flame crest on the head is bright red.
But the feathers of this Torchic are lighter in color, showing a light golden color, and the flame crest on the head has a faint amber luster.
"This... could it be Shiny Torchic?"
There was a hint of disbelief in Aili's voice.
When Shuren heard the word "Shiny", he also put down the kettle in his hand and came over, looking at Torchic carefully.
"Shiny? That's very rare! I saw it in the information, boss, where did you conquer it? I want it too."
Yushu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said in a calm manner, "Hmph, do I have to tell you that I know the champion Sinnoh?"
The air was quiet for two seconds.
Aili rolled his eyes, not believing a word of it. "Come on, you know the champion? If you know the champion, I will go directly to the Pokémon League headquarters tomorrow to ask President Damaranch to be my godfather!"
Shuren echoed, "Forgive me boss, I can't stand up to you this time."
The two of them didn't believe it at all, so they turned around and continued to go about their own business.
If the boss really knew the champion, they would not be paid a cent for the entire year and would work for free for the whole year!
It's a pity that this ultimate flag was not heard by Yushu, otherwise he would have taken out the champion's business card on the spot, dialed Cynthia's phone number, and taught these two guys who did not believe in evil a lesson, and would have slapped them in the face until they shut themselves up!
Without paying attention to the two people's reactions, Yushu began to think seriously about a question.
Training plan for Torchic.
Although you are a rancher, you still need to have fighting ability.
Because this world is not peaceful.
Team Rocket, Team Galactic, and various evil organizations may cause trouble at any time.
If an evil organization comes to attack, he can resist easily, right?
Yushu thought for a long time and finally made an important decision.
Let Pokémon train Pokémon.
It's definitely not that he is lazy.
Okay, maybe it's a little lazy, but more importantly, he discovered a pattern.
It is better to let Pokémon take care of it himself. He can just take care of the logistics.
Just look at the veteran team members of the ranch and you will know how reliable this plan is.
Everyone is self-disciplined and motivated, so he doesn't have to worry about it at all.
Kirlia followed Uxie Calm Mind to practice Inner Focus, and his control power steadily increased.
After finalizing the core idea, Yushu began to take stock one by one and select Torchic's teacher.
Miltank, stable and reliable, rich in experience, good at basic physical training.
But it's from Normal-type, and it doesn't match Fire-type.
Tentatively, it can be used as an alternative.
Staraptor is fast and has rich combat experience. The disadvantage is that he is too promiscuous and cannot control himself. If he is allowed to lead his disciples, he may lead Torchic astray.
Torterra is mature and prudent, but unfortunately his attributes are inconsistent, and Torterra's action speed is too slow. I'm afraid he won't be able to keep up with Torchic's pace later on, so he only uses Shell Smash to speed up.
Rotom, he is too playful and sometimes he can't handle it. If he is asked to lead his apprentice, he is afraid that if they both go crazy at the same time, the whole ranch will be demolished by them.
Forget it, one crazy person is enough for this ranch.
Vespiquen, this person has rich experience in raising children. After all, she is in charge of Combee. Unfortunately, their attributes do not match. Fire-type and Bug-type really have nothing in common.
Kirlia, this one is even worse, this one is still a baby.
Yushu went through Pokémon in the ranch, took stock, and went round and round, the best candidate emerged.
Luxray!
Luxray has a relatively reliable personality and can also fight.
Although it is not Fire-type, thunder and fire are both destructive attributes. The training methods can be used universally. It is perfect for polishing the foundation of Torchic!
Yushu found Luxray and explained his purpose.
Luxray lay on the mat, glanced at him with half-open eyes, and then hit Yawn:
"Hoo." (Not interested.)
It turned over and pointed its butt towards Yushu, expressing its rejection.
Anyone who likes to do the hard work of being a disciple can do it.
Yushu was already prepared and took something out of his pocket.
Magnet!
It is not the Magnet that is used at home, but the special equipment props Pokémon.
He bought this from Jubilife City before. It is of good quality and can increase the power of Electric-type's moves by 15%.
Why not 20 percent?
That can only be achieved by the top-quality Magnet, but this quality is not up to that level.
But fifteen percent is already quite considerable, and for Luxray it is irresistible Captivate.
Luxray's ears moved, he secretly opened his eyes for a glance, and then closed them again.
How tiring it is to lead a disciple.
Need more money!
Yushu knew what it thought so, and threw Magnet in his hand:
"I know you saw it, don't think about raising the price, just one. If you don't want it, I will give it to Rotom. That kid has been clamoring to improve his strength recently, and he just needs a prop."
Luxray stood up suddenly:
"Roar!" (Deal!)
It's easier to do things when you have something.
Luxray agreed to take Torchic, and Yushu's training plan has taken shape.
Seeing Luxray taking over this chore, the other Pokémons breathed a sigh of relief.
"Tutai~" (Fortunately it's not me...)
"Muke~" (Thank you for your hard work, I'll run away first...)
"Rotom~" (I'm not interested anyway...)
Pokémon people dispersed in a hurry, fearing that Yushu would change his mind.
Torchic looked at the reactions of these seniors and felt speechless.
Is it something very dirty? Why are they all running so fast?
Only Kirlia stayed and gave Torchic an encouraging look.
"Qilu~" (Come on, you can do it, Luxray is very responsible.)
Torchic was greatly moved.
It knows that there is still true love! Kirlia is simply an angel!
Yushu does not have high requirements for Torchic.
Just practice Ember first.
Torchic The current Ember is too weak, and Spit Up's previous Ember is not as powerful as a candle. If you can't even master the basic moves, it will be impossible to talk about the advanced moves.
For this reason, Yushu also prepared a batch of Razz Berry for Torchic.
Even though a baby Pokémon like Torchic is Fire-type, long-term use of fire-type moves will put a strain on itself.
Razz Berry is used to treat Burn. It has a cooling effect. A small amount of consumption can help Torchic relieve the burning sensation caused by Fire-type's moves and extend the training time.
Yushu officially handed over Torchic to Luxray.
Luxray said he knew what he was doing, and took Torchic to an open space in the ranch.
Training officially begins.
Luxray asked Torchic to practice Ember on the target. The so-called target is actually a thick wooden board with a red circle painted on it, which is used to test the accuracy and power of the moves.
"Chamo!"
Torchic took a deep breath, puffed up his cheeks, his face turned red from suppressing it, and then suddenly Spit Up a small cluster of Ember.
The cluster of Ember fluttered out and hit the target.
Then with a pop, it disappeared.
There is only a faint black mark left on the wooden board, which cannot be seen unless you look carefully.
"Chamo..." (I have tried my best...)
It's just Ember that just doesn't work QAQ.
Luxray frowned and watched for a long time, feeling that this practice was too slow.
It thought for a while and made a decision.
Practice physical strength first.
Its logic is very simple. As physical strength increases, doesn't Ember's strength also increase?
It's like if your strength training is in place, your punches will naturally become stronger.
Anyway, I think it's quite useful. I learned it through running back then.
So Luxray changed the training plan. Starting from physical training!
Luxray lets Torchic run around the pasture.
Torchic:???
Running in circles? The pasture is so big! How long does it have to run for a little chicken? With its two short legs, it is already dark after running around!
"Hoo." (No.)
But under the eyes of Luxray and Kamui, Torchic still started running.
It could hold on at first, but stopped running halfway through.
It stopped and looked at Luxray with accusing eyes.
"Chamo!"
(Unreasonable! I'm still a baby! Babies don't run long distances! We just practiced the moves we agreed on!)
"Roar." (Get up and look at me.)
Luxray looked at it with disdain and decided to set an example.
Zizzi!
I saw a flash of electricity on Luxray's body, blue Spark jumping between the fur, and then it directly turned on the Charge mode.
It turned into a bolt of lightning and ran wildly through the pasture, so fast that only an afterimage could be seen.
Torchic was stunned:
What the hell, are you running like this? This is not running, this is clearly flying close to the ground!
It thought about it and thought it might as well give it a try. So it tried to mobilize the flame energy in its body and ran like Mimic Luxray.
Then...Flame Charge!
It's a pity that Torchic forgot that even Ember couldn't control it well, and Flame Charge couldn't control it even more.
Flame Charge itself is the Fire-type move, which will increase speed after use.
Coupled with Torchic and Speed Boost, the speed increases by one level after each round.
The double acceleration effect was superimposed, and Torchic instantly turned into an out-of-control fireball.
Boom boom!
It was a Ember with lightning, running rampant in the pasture.
Torchic himself was confused.
It just wanted to run faster, but unexpectedly it took off directly.
It felt like a cannonball being fired, with no control over its direction.
Luxray were all shocked.
How can this little thing be so fast? This explosive power is really exciting.
"Chamo chamo chamo!!!!"
I saw Torchic sprinting madly in the pasture, trailing a trail of flames behind him, like a comet streaking across the sky.
It wanted to stop, but it found that it couldn't.
If it wants to slow down, Speed Boost will force it to speed up!
It wants to turn, and its inertia drives it wildly!
From this moment on, you can't control its speed!
