章節 382: Final Preparation 1
A/N: Check out my website for the gym battle completion
---------
Only Venusaur was left to rank up now, and Axel was 100% sure that it would be able to do it before the training was completed. There was a little over a week left, and the training was going well. Axel didn't know if he could defeat Kent with this level of preparation, but he wanted to try again.

Ding!
Nidorino has leveled up Substitute to level 40. It can now assist in using a move.
---
Nidorino was finally able to level up Substitute to level 40. It had already ranked up 'Spinning poison' to level 40 some days ago. After it reached level 40, Nidorino could use the attack much more quickly than before, which was one of the main advantages of the move. Substitute would help it even more now.
Axel took inspiration from the function of 'Shadow Clone' from Naruto and tried to teach Nidorino a similar technique. He wanted Nidorino to use 'Substitute' to assist in creating 'Spinning poison', just like Naruto used shadow clones to create Rasenshuriken. After training the move for a long time, Nidorino was finally able to do it.
When 'Spinning poison' leveled up to 40, the stamina requirement to create it decreased, but using 'Substitute' increased the stamina again. So, right now, the stamina requirement was just a bit lower than before. However, the move was much faster than before.
"Nidorino, use 'Substitute' and 'Spinning poison' together," Axel commanded.
"NIDO!!",
it shouted and poof, a replica of Nidorino appeared right beside it. Both of them concentrated, and 'Spinning poison' took shape. The whole body of Nidorino was covered in a purple aura, and the ball of poison started to spin wildly. Within seconds, the move was completed, a massive improvement compared to before.
As per Axel, 4 seconds was still a lot of time for an attack to hit. If Nidorino could use 3 substitutes like Shedinja, it would have been ideal. One substitute would engage in battle to shield them, while the other would assist Nidorino in the move.
"Nidorino, go to Shedinja and try to learn how to use multiple substitutes. Try to learn it within 1 week. Also, focus on 'Mud bomb', 'Sand Hardening', and 'Fissure'."
If Nidorino could learn it from Shedinja, he could use Nidorino against Kent.
Even though he was focusing a lot on his Pokemon's training, Axel was also training hard himself. Practicing stance was really hard. First, there was no one to tell him if he was doing it wrong. Even a centimeter of difference might result in a massive difference.
Second, it was hard to practice stance and sword moves. Axel had never practiced it in his life. After training hard for 3 whole weeks, he was able to level up 'Aura sense' to level 30 and 'Aura pressure' to level 10.
After 'Aura sense' leveled up to level 30, there was a massive upgrade. He could now sense Pokemon in a 50-meter radius. He realized that he could also sense minute things if he focused on it. 'Aura pressure' was a cool move. It made it possible for Axel to use invisible pressure on his opponents, similar to increasing gravity. The effect of it was non-existent to Pokemon, but it would affect humans to kneel down if they didn't have good body stats or aura.
Just like this, the days passed by, and the day to fight Kent again was coming close. Today was the last day of training and...
---
Ding!
Venusaur has learned a new move. Name the move.
---
"Let's call it Restore."
---
Ding!
The move has been named.
Ding!
Venusaur is ranking up to elemental rank.
---
Finally, the much-awaited rank up was happening. Axel gave off a Miracle Seed to Venusaur to assist in the rank up. The process took up to 10 minutes, and...
ROARRRR…
Venusaur had finally ranked up to elemental rank. Axel had deliberately held off its evolutions and rank up before for a better foundation. After he was satisfied with its progress, he hastened its rank up.
Venusaur was calm after the rank up, not going haywire during the process. Axel looked at its stats to see its progress.

What the hell had just happened? There was a massive rise in its ability and hidden ability mastery. In addition to 'Synthesis', 'Sunny day', 'Razor leaf', 'Vine whip', 'Energy ball', 'Sleeping powder', and 'Field control' had also leveled up to 40. Its health was also massively increased to 4000.
A normal rank up would not do this. So, what was the reason?
"System, what the hell is happening?" asked Axel.
---
Ding!
This is due to the effect of the locket that Mew gave during the tide.
---
"Oh yes, how could I forget about it," mumbled Axel.
Mew had given this locket to Venusaur, saying that it contains the power of Celebi. It had said that the power of the locket would activate during every rank up, up to King rank. Axel had already forgotten about it and put it on the back of its head.
"If that was the case, then why didn't it activate when it reached rare rank?" asked Axel.
---
Ding!
The system believes that the information given by Mew was incomplete or wrong. The system is unable to properly analyze the mysterious locket.
---
"So, even you cannot analyze it, huh. Well, Celebi is a powerful Pokemon."
Axel was happy about Venusaur. Its hard work had finally paid off. Of course, the locket contributed a lot.
"Guys, today we will all rest. No training for today," announced Axel.
The Pokemons were jumping in joy with the news. They had worked really hard in this hell training. Rest was also an important aspect of training. Axel was now going to challenge Kent in 2 days. The team needed rest to battle again.
Thinking about it, Axel went towards Pewter City. He booked a flight for tomorrow. Axel also bought a lot of delicious food for the team and for himself.
"You have done a great job. All of you have exceeded my expectations. Tonight, we feast again. We will show Kent what we are made of."
CRIIII
Shed…
NIDOOOO
ROARRRR
ROARRRR
All of the Pokemon shouted in excitement. Finally, the hell training was over, and they could have a delicious meal. Axel went to his phone and called up his family. His family was his good luck, especially Agnes. He could call them every time before challenging the gym, and he would win every time.
He had not called them the last time he challenged Kent and had lost miserably. He felt that he lost because he didn't call them. Axel was a bit superstitious with these kinds of things.
"So, all ready for tomorrow's challenge?" asked Noah over the phone.
"Yes, I just hope that I would win this time."
"Don't worry. You have trained very hard. You need to trust yourself and your Pokemon too. Kent is powerful, but you are also not weak," said Noah.
"Thanks, uncle. How is Slowking?"
"It is doing well. It had recently ranked up to rare rank. I am surprised by its progress."
"Haha. It is a hard-working Pokemon. How is Agnes, and how is Dratini doing?"
...
...
The talk went on for some time, and he was able to talk to all of them. Axel was now ready for the second round.
