Mr. Kebi ran his fingers over the Electric Badge, sensing its effects.
The Electric Badge felt somewhat like the special items mentioned in ancient secret manuals.
By analyzing the Electric Badge, Mr. Kebi felt that his success rate in crafting special items had slightly increased.
He planned to try it out when he got back.
Even if he couldn't create a permanent version of the special item now, he could at least make consumables that would last for a period before expiring.
Watt walked over, "Let's go to the lounge and rest for a bit. Try our Zǐjǐn Gym's specialty, Million Volt Ice Cream."
As Tie Xuan's disciple, Watt was also an excellent Electric-type Pokémon Trainer.
He had a vast reserve of knowledge in Electric-type Pokémon training and breeding, but he lacked confidence, unable to fully unleash his and his Pokémon's power in battle.
Tie Xuan patted Mr. Kebi's arm, "This disciple of mine, he has the ability, but he's not confident enough. Help me inspire him."
Tie Xuan had to face the next challenger, so he entrusted the task of entertaining Mr. Kebi and the others to Watt.
Mr. Kebi smiled knowingly, "No problem, but you have to let me eat my fill of Million Volt Ice Cream at once."
Watt gave a shy smile, "Million Volt Ice Cream, as much as you want."
Xiao Sheng excitedly raised his hand, "I want a whole box!"
Last time, with his sister watching, he only ate a small piece of ice cream.
Today, he wanted to eat his fill of ice cream!
Watt brought Mr. Kebi and Xiao Sheng a box, looking at the ice cream packed in a box as big as a washbasin.
Mr. Kebi's mouth twitched. He could only sigh at how earnest Watt was.
"Xiao Sheng and I will be fine with one box."
"Ah, I…" Xiao Sheng was looked at by Mr. Kebi with a half-smile, unable to utter another word.
Mr. Kebi took out a large bowl and scooped half of the ice cream into it.
"Eat this half first. If you can still eat more, then ask Watt for a second serving."
Watt brought some more snacks. "Mr. Kebi, you just mentioned some Pokémon that need my help with transfer. Which Pokémon are they, if I may ask?"
"Just call me Kebi."
Mr. Kebi told Watt about his plans to capture Steelix and Magnemite, as well as Steelix's unique training method.
Watt exclaimed, "I didn't expect wild Steelix to train like that."
Xiao Sheng looked up and asked, "Is the Steelix that Brother Kebi plans to capture the same one that Torkoal challenged? Although it knows Dragon Breath, it's not that rare, is it?"
Mr. Kebi waved his hand and explained:
"It's not Dragon Breath, but Steelix himself has figured out an effective training method, which is very rare among wild Pokémon. When you set out on your journey in the future, don't miss such Pokémon."
"I will take Nosepass and Magnemite. Steelix will most likely not be able to leave Steel Valley and will choose to stay there permanently. I can only bring him to my side once a week to condition his body."
Magma tempering was an effective training method, but Steelix's execution was too crude, not maximizing the energy of the magma.
Watt looked at Mr. Kebi with some anticipation, "Kebi, when you capture Steelix, can I watch?"
"Of course, no problem."
Mr. Kebi scooped a spoonful of ice cream and was instantly captivated by its silky smooth and dense texture.
"The texture of this ice cream…"
Watt proudly said, "This ice cream is made by Master's Million Volt high-speed centrifuge, which is why its texture is so silky smooth and dense."
No wonder it's called Million Volt Ice Cream.
While eating ice cream, Mr. Kebi also checked in for the day.
【Checked in at Zǐjǐn Gym. One month of check-ins completed. Reward: Ten high-quality Revival Herbs, Character Card: Gardener Fu Ye (Annual Card 365 days).】
Mr. Kebi looked at the Breeder Brock Character Card he received on his first day of check-in.
【Breeder Brock Character Card: Remaining usage time 28 days 16 hours 23 minutes.】
It had been a month since he got the Brock Character Card, and Mr. Kebi had only used it for a little over a day. He felt that the Brock Character Card wouldn't be used up in a year.
Especially since yesterday, Mr. Kebi and the real Brock exchanged breeding knowledge, inspiring each other. If they traveled together again, it wouldn't be used up in three years.
Mr. Kebi was very curious about what abilities the Gardener Fu Ye Character Card possessed.
Opening the Character Card description: Fu Ye, Gym Leader of the Coumarine Gym in the Kalos region, specializes in using Grass-type Pokémon, known as "the old tree still blooming."
Gardener Fu Ye grants Fu Ye's ability to cultivate and use plants.
Planting berries, herbs, and ornamental plants.
As well as the ability to use these plants to make food and medicine.
With this Fu Ye Annual Card, Mr. Kebi was confident that he would be a qualified herbal master within ten years, and he also had confidence in absorbing Fu Ye's knowledge before the annual card ran out.
Becoming a true herbal master.
【System, use Fu Ye Character Card.】
Mr. Kebi first thought about a prescription to replenish Fearow's depleted body.
For Fu Ye, who had been making herbal medicines for over fifty years, this was not difficult.
In one minute, Mr. Kebi obtained a clear and effective prescription, with all the herbs used being relatively inexpensive.
Then came the muscle-strengthening and bone-fortifying prescription for Chimchar. Chimchar's physical talent was not particularly outstanding, so postnatal cultivation was especially important.
It only took two minutes to confirm a prescription.
Also not too expensive.
【System, activate Brock Character Card.】
With the combined abilities of the Fu Ye and Brock Character Cards, Mr. Kebi quickly updated the Pokémon's formulas.
Even for Steelix, whom he hadn't even caught yet, Mr. Kebi designed a plant essential oil for him to use for body maintenance after magma tempering.
Five minutes later, Mr. Kebi rubbed his temples and closed both Character Cards.
If he wasn't a Psychic, he really might not have been able to withstand such a brainstorm.
He quickly ate a few mouthfuls of ice cream to cool down his brain and replenish his energy.
"Watt, which Pokémon have you bred now?"
Watt immediately replied, "Ampharos, Magneton, Electrode, Manectric, Jolteon, Plusle, and Minun."
Mr. Kebi stroked his chin and said, "Watt, your personality is relatively gentle. Perhaps breeding a fierce Electric-type Pokémon could bring you challenge and growth."
"What do you think?"
"Huh?" Watt was a little intimidated. He wasn't sure if he could train the other party well and make them listen to him. "This…"
Seeing Watt's hesitant look, Mr. Kebi directly made the decision for him.
"It's decided then. Let me think about what fierce Electric-type Pokémon would be suitable for you to train."
Closer ones would naturally be Luxray, which are abundant in the Sinnoh region, while further ones would be Toxtricity from the Galar region.
"You not only have to choose this type of Pokémon, but you also have to choose the one with the fiercest personality to tame. I highly recommend Luxray. Isn't there a saying that if you stare into a lion's eyes for a long time, you will also become as fierce as a lion?"
For example, the saying that someone's eyes seem to have a lion in them.
Using the Fu Ye and Brock Character Cards simultaneously just now gave Mr. Kebi a wonderful feeling.
He could perfectly distinguish the composition of an item.
He thought of the Pokémon Aptitude Boosting Potion lying in his backpack. Perhaps he could taste a drop of the potion, analyze its ingredients, and then mass-replicate it.
