Chapitre 580: New Beginnings
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed, and Verdanturf Town had officially transitioned from summer to autumn.
Through Sasaki Makoto, Yuga submitted the names of Akihito, Arata Sena, and their group of six to the League and successfully passed the review.
As soon as Yuga took up his position, they would automatically become apprentices at the Verdanturf Gym.
The construction of the Verdanturf Gym was progressing smoothly. Mr. Ando was very dedicated, putting great effort into every aspect of the construction, striving for perfection. It was believed that the Gym would be completed officially in just a few days.
Beidou's referee knowledge training was also going well. Passing the exam should not be a problem when the time came.
This exam was not too complex because Gym referees were not as strict as those in various major competitions.
Furthermore, the League Conference in the Hoenn Region had ended a week ago, and Reggie participated in this League competition.
Unfortunately, due to his busy schedule with the Gym, Yuga couldn't go to cheer for Reggie in person; he had to watch his matches on TV.
Reggie performed exceptionally well in this Hoenn League Conference and secured the final victory.
Given Reggie's strength, winning the Hoenn League Conference wasn't surprising. The previous Sinnoh League was a bit abnormal with many unusual contestants like Flint, Volkner, and even Cynthia. Encountering such opponents, it was normal for Reggie to face challenges.
Yuga and his batch of newly established Gyms wouldn't be able to catch up with this League Conference, but they would open their doors before the next League Conference began.
During this month, Yuga, in addition to overseeing the Gym's construction, managed the shop, tended to the Ecopark, and trained his two newly acquired Grass-type Pokémon.
Yes, he had two now.
In addition to his original Turtwig, Yuga's Deerling Pokémon egg had successfully hatched.
Over this month, Yuga's training had yielded results with these two Pokémon.
...
<<Turtwig>>
Type: Grass/Poison
Ability: Overgrow
Gender: Male
Potential: Indigo
Level: 16
Moves: Tackle, Withdraw, Growth, Double-Edge, Razor Leaf.
...
<<Deerling>>
Type: Normal/Grass
Ability: Chlorophyll
Gender: Female
Potential: Blue
Level: 14
Moves: Tackle, Camouflage, Double Kick, Agility, Odor Sleuth.
...
These were the training results of the two Pokémon over the past month.
As they were still young, Yuga didn't rush their level advancement. Instead, he continued to use his special abilities to aid their training, allowing them to establish a strong foundation.
Turtwig showed more obvious improvements under the influence of Yuga's special abilities. The most significant change was in its size, which had grown significantly in just one month.
When it was born, Turtwig was no larger than Yuga's palm. Now, it was roughly the size of two adult heads, especially the small sapling on its back, which had grown lush and healthy.
This small tree was highly sensitive to Yuga's special abilities. Whenever Yuga employed his abilities on Turtwig, the little tree would sway vigorously, absorbing energy from Yuga's body and then channeling it back to Turtwig.
Fortunately, Yuga's abilities had improved considerably over this period. If this had happened earlier, Yuga might have been completely drained!
However, the small tree's effect was significant. Turtwig had made remarkable progress in growth, skill development, and the power of its moves compared to ordinary Pokémon.
In conclusion, Yuga's diligent training and unique abilities were making a notable difference in the development of his Pokémon.
Deerling and Turtwig are slightly inferior in comparison, but what sets this young one apart is its docility, attentiveness, and diligent nature.
Having a rapidly progressing companion by its side, Deerling feels a great sense of urgency and trains diligently.
So, even though Turtwig possesses many advantages that Deerling lacks, the latter hasn't fallen too far behind.
Turtwig is still quite young, and despite Yuga's guidance, it can be a bit mischievous. Surprisingly, Deerling, though even younger, appears more mature and steady.
So, even if Deerling's innate qualities aren't on par with Turtwig, Yuga has a deep fondness for it.
In its autumn form, Deerling has orange fur on its back and wears a small yellow flower on its head, making it both playful and adorable.
Perhaps due to Deerling's unique ability to change its appearance with the seasons, it possesses an extraordinary talent for the skill of camouflage.
Camouflage is a skill that Deerling is born with, and it seems to have a natural aptitude for it, using it with great proficiency.
Even Yuga's Florges, knows this trick, but when it comes to the application of this skill, it lags behind Deerling, which has only recently been born.
This skill is like an instinct for young Deerling. It can rapidly change the color of its fur to blend into its surroundings, instantly deceiving the vision of others.
Yuga believes that Deerling's camouflage is no longer just camouflage; it's somewhat similar to the color-changing talent of a Kecleon.
This skill not only alters the appearance of the Pokémon but also its attributes.
Yuga thinks that if Deerling were placed in a terrain with complex and ever-changing conditions, it could continually modify its attributes using camouflage, gaining an advantage in battle.
Deerling also possesses an excellent speed talent. By constantly moving in different terrains, it has a significant range of application for its camouflage skill.
Apart from these two Pokémon, there is also some good news.
Over the past month, the Mandibuzzes that Yuga had placed in the Desert Sub-Ecopark finally couldn't withstand the combined onslaught of the Flygon family and the Gligar family. They began to yield to Yuga, temporarily restraining their ferocity, and peacefully moved to the central island of Lake No. 3 in the Shallow Seashore, refraining from causing any trouble.
However, Yuga remained uneasy and believed that he needed to tame the Archeops as soon as possible to manage these Mandibuzzes.
Yet, even after thinking for more than a month, Yuga hadn't come up with a good plan to tame this peak Elite level Pokémon. Archeops had spent over a month inside its Poké Ball.
Fortunately, this peak Elite level Pokémon was enduring hunger. However, this situation couldn't persist indefinitely.
peak Elite level Pokémon could endure hunger for a month or two, at most becoming weaker but not beyond recovery. But one couldn't starve them forever!
Currently, the most reliable solution was to figure out a way to revive Dragonite. With Dragonite's around, taming Archeops would be a matter of minutes.
However, the maturation of the Revival Herbs wasn't a quick process, and without their help, it was challenging to heal the injuries inflicted by the Legendary Beasts.
If not for the Guardian Orb's presence, Yuga wouldn't have been able to maintain Dragonite's condition and prevent further deterioration.
Yuga had also contemplated keeping Archeops confined until it became too weak to resist Volcarona and Noctowl.
However, upon further reflection, he realized that even if he temporarily tamed it this way, there was a high possibility that Archeops would turn hostile in the future, a consequence Yuga might not be able to handle.
