LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Before School Starts
Victor didn't know about his father's worries. Before going to bed, he opened the panel.
Name: [Victor]
Gender: [Male]
Age: [17 years old]
Attributes: [Normal, Fighting]
Special Ability: [Power of Waveguide (Intermediate)]
Moves: [Wave Resonance, Wave Missile]
Pokémon: [Carbink, Torracat]
System Currency: 25,000 (twenty-five thousand)
Props: [Advanced Rock, Fairy Energy Pink Diamond x5, (the host stores some miscellaneous items)]
After half a month of hard training, Victor's Waveguide power finally broke through to the intermediate level three days ago, expanding his detection range to about fifty meters in diameter around his body.
Perhaps because of his talent, after breaking through to intermediate-level Waveguide power, Victor immediately began practicing Wave Synchronization Resonance techniques and Wave Missiles from the Wave Experience Manual.
In just three days, he mastered the two moves.
Yesterday, when Victor went to the Spiral Secret Realm for actual combat, he tested them against a Scyther leader.
The elite-level Scyther had to use all its strength to block the Wave Missile Victor concentrated.
Then there's Carbink and Torracat.
After half a month of training, Litten finally completed its evolution under the high-pressure battle with Scyther yesterday, evolving into Torracat.
In this world, Pokémon don't necessarily evolve at fixed levels and may evolve earlier or later.
Litten evolved at level 20, three levels later than usual.
Torracat and Litten look very similar. Their color schemes remain the same, but Torracat's body is larger, its eyes more determined, and its claws sharper.
The pattern on its head has expanded compared to Litten, extending from the forehead. The "fire bell" organ on its neck generates flames. Its temperature rises according to Torracat's mood, spitting flames accompanied by a loud bell-like sound.
Victor received a customized Soothing Bell the day after leaving the flowing water Dojo.
He specifically requested materials resistant to Pokémon moves for the collar holding the bell.
The shopping guide recommended a blue scarf, capable of withstanding elemental attributes and moves without damage.
After receiving the Soothing Bell from supermart Mall, Victor gave it to Litten immediately.
Litten adored the scarf with the Soothing Bell, refusing to take it off except for baths.
During evolution, the Soothing Bell and scarf fused with Litten's evolutionary light.
After evolving, the Soothing Bell transformed into Torracat's "fire bell," while the scarf remained on its neck, now seemingly part of Torracat and impossible to remove.
Torracat's agility didn't increase post-evolution, but its strength and endurance improved significantly.
With the system's help, Victor taught Torracat moves tailored to its current form and its future evolution into Incineroar.
Torracat now has enough power to face the elite-level Scyther.
Pokémon: [Torracat (wearing a blue scarf)]
Attribute: [Fire]
Gender: [♂]
Characteristic: [Intimidate]
Props: [Charcoal]
Level: [20]
Moves: [Scratch, Ember, Growl, Fake Out, Heat Wave, Taunt, Revenge, Lick, Roar, Bite, Fire Fang, Flame Burst, Bulk Up, Protect, U-turn, Shadow Claw, Parting Shot]
The fused Soothing Bell and scarf caused Torracat's item slot to reset to [none], prompting Victor to exchange system currency for Charcoal, which boosts fire moves by 20%.
Victor also customized Torracat's training regimen, combining moves like Fake Out and Intimidate.
Torracat can use the opponent's flinch window to perform stat boosts or unleash strong moves, effectively turning the tide of battle.
As for Carbink, its training focused more on refining energy and move control. To aid this, Victor had Carbink learn from his father's Coalossal, a Pokémon with strong energy manipulation skills.
Even without a focus on strength, Carbink broke through to entry-elite level during this period.
Pokémon: [Carbink]
Attribute: [Rock, Fairy]
Gender: [♀]
Characteristic: [Clear Body]
Level: [30]
Props: [Diancite]
Moves: [Tackle, Harden, Dazzling Gleam, Meteor Beam, Reflect, Light Screen, Ancient Power, Guard Split, Sharpen, Rock Throw, Stealth Rock, Protect, Safeguard, Power Gem, Moonblast]
Carbink learned Safeguard through the system's training function. Moves like Power Gem and Moonblast came naturally from its talent and practice.
Carbink excels at radiance-based moves, with Moonblast specializing in single-target destruction. Its strength now easily matches Scyther.
When Victor commanded Carbink to fight jhon's Coalossal in the gym, Carbink emerged victorious, solidifying Victor's potential as a trainer.
Victor's father, jhon, was thrilled, declaring his son had the makings of a superstar!
Though the Coalossal wasn't actively commanded, Victor's achievement of defeating a mid-elite Pokémon within a month of receiving his first Pokémon impressed Roman deeply.
Roman knew that even geniuses from the Imperial Dragon Clan and the Sea People of Mermaid City rarely accomplished such feats without leveraging their full strength.
