In the end, Fang Yuan and Eevee had decided to participate in the Little Phoenix King Cup.
And they had extremely high ambitions.
Although they weren't favored, that was the case.
After that, the Psychology Club's five-person trip to Modu continued for another two days, making it a total of four days of travel.
The first day... was a very normal outing.
On the second day, Fang Yuan and Eevee spent time alone, and Eevee learned the Sand Attack move.
In the following two days, they didn't have any new gains, spending their time getting to know the city of Modu, passing the time relatively uneventfully.
During this time, Fang Yuan and Eevee also went to watch the nearest Dojo from the outside, but that was all, as outsiders were refused entry to the important areas.
However, it must be said that Modu's atmosphere was much better than Peaceful City's, and the Trainer culture here was clearly more prosperous.
The Little Phoenix King Cup's champion was indeed not so easy to obtain...
"Let's go home."
"Eevee~"
On the fourth day afternoon, the five people boarded the Maglev Train back to Peaceful City, chatting and laughing all the way. Fang Yuan was repeatedly told to maintain the Psychology Club.
Of course, Fang Yuan wouldn't refuse this. After all, after returning to Peaceful City, he still had to continue studying, and club activities... were one of the very legitimate reasons to skip non-exam subjects, something he had done quite a bit before.
"Fang Yuan, you and Eevee have to train hard after you go back."
"If you make it to the top sixteen, we'll be able to see you on the live broadcast," Du Ai joked.
"Right, right, remember to ask us if you don't understand anything during training. We've already told you about the training programs at school," the Senior said.
Everyone laughed together, not really thinking that Fang Yuan could achieve good results, unless... Eevee could evolve in the next month or so.
This was also the only possibility that the few of them had discussed.
No matter what, Eevee was still not suitable for battle in people's minds, especially an Eevee that had just entered its Growth stage.
"Easy, easy... just wait and see my heroic figure, I'll definitely remind you then," Fang Yuan said helplessly.
Say nothing else, just brag first, and then see how the actual results turn out.
The relationship between the few of them was pretty good, and they could joke around, but this kind of relationship was very common in high school. After they went to different cities for college, they would probably slowly drift apart.
Peaceful City had arrived, and it was time to say goodbye. Little Eevee lay on Fang Yuan's shoulder, watching the others leave with him.
Fang Yuan took a breath, not staying outside for long, heading straight home. Although he had only been out for four days, he still felt more comfortable living at home. Fang Yuan couldn't imagine how he would spend his time in college.
"But, thinking about having Little Eevee with me, I feel much better."
Fang Yuan sighed. No matter how the environment around him changed, at least Eevee would always be by his side.
He and Eevee quickly arrived home. There was still no one at home, but Fang Yuan was used to it. After changing his clothes, he immediately rushed to the bedroom.
As for Little Eevee... he left it in the living room to watch TV.
Fang Yuan was now going to do something big, something that would determine how far he could go in the Little Phoenix King Cup.
In the last two days, Fang Yuan summarized a special training plan. He also combined his understanding, the knowledge system of games and animations, and some real-world situations to organize a breeding template.
Purposeless training is inefficient, a principle that everyone should know, and Fang Yuan is certainly even more aware of.
Those breeding plans were jotted down by Fang Yuan in his phone, one sentence here and another there. Now, what he needs to do is use a computer and handwriting to categorize them in detail.
"If the Little Phoenix King Cup is the goal, then the types of opponents Eevee and I will face next will be many. It could be Rock-type, it could be Ghost-type, Psychic-type. These types are very tricky. With Eevee's small body, if it wants to defeat those troublesome Pokémon, it must undergo comprehensive training..."
Fang Yuan believes...
The strength of a Pokémon in battle depends on the level of its basic qualities and the degree of mastery of its moves.
This is the result of Fang Yuan's careful consideration and division.
The so-called basic qualities include stamina, body strength, speed, explosive power, coordination, etc. Some Pokémon will also focus on training their mental strength.
Stamina affects a Pokémon's ability to fight continuously.
Body strength affects a Pokémon's resistance to attacks and its own attack power. For example, in the Tackle move, the level of body strength has a significant impact on the power of the Tackle. In addition, some Pokémon's body parts also have the function of storing energy, but we won't mention that for now.
As for speed, it is a very broad concept. A Pokémon's reaction speed, movement speed, and energy gathering speed are all speed.
Explosive power is also very important depending on the Pokémon and the breeding method, and Fang Yuan believes that coordination is also indispensable.
In the anime, there is a profession called Coordinator. This world does not have it. This profession is different from traditional Trainers. They focus on improving the appearance and mental state of Pokémon. They also practice gorgeous battles, which leads to the fact that the top Coordinators can use the characteristics of Pokémon and a large number of moves flexibly and freely, combining them with each other. Or, to put it more directly, coordination can also be said to be control.
Control over body movements, control over energy, control over the form of moves...
It is closely related to the previous basic qualities. Strong control over the body may bring stronger explosive power, and strong control over energy can gather moves faster! "If basic qualities are like their description, the foundation, the root, then the Pokémon's moves are the unidirectional or even multi-directional sublimation of basic qualities, and, are the basis for determining victory or defeat."
This principle is also very simple. Harden can strengthen the Pokémon's body strength, bringing powerful defense. Agility can strengthen the Pokémon's movement speed, bringing powerful mobility.
As for why moves determine victory or defeat, it is because they are the Pokémon's main means of attack! Without attacking, you can never win, unless your opponent collapses from exhaustion.
The magical abilities that Pokémon master are usually the use of energy, and moves are the manifestation of various energies.
Blizzard... Thunder... Fire Vortex... Harden Plant...
Fang Yuan marked key points in his notebook. No basic quality can be missed, but moves can be selectively trained, after all, a Pokémon's energy is limited.
It is difficult to comprehend a move.
It is even more difficult to master a move.
It is even more difficult to develop a move to its limit.
Eevee was just born, and its current basic qualities are not up to par. To reach an average level, it needs to continue to absorb nutrients and grow slowly. By then, some of its basic qualities will improve naturally, and there will be no problem with training some of the basic qualities that are still not up to par.
But now there is not much time left, Fang Yuan can only take shortcuts.
"That place can train all the basic qualities at the same time, and can also help Eevee comprehend new moves. I just don't know if I can still get in now..."
"If I can, it will save a lot of time."
Fang Yuan attaches great importance to that special training plan. He plans to communicate with his parents about this matter when they come back
