Chapter 10 Poké Ball_1

Outside the Spirit Center—

Fang Yuan and Eevee walked out.

After bustling about for half the day, everything was finally settled.

In Fang Yuan's hand was a red-and-white Poké Ball.

This Poké Ball, which Fang Yuan had bought after activating his Trainer ID, was like Pokémon, regulated in its purchase. Although not expensive, there was a limit to the number trainers could buy.

Just as there was a limit on the number of Pokémon each person could own.

Of course, where there is light, there will be shadows; the black market and smuggling existed as well, but these activities were illegal and were eradicated whenever discovered.

The information of this Poké Ball had already been bound to Eevee; it could be considered Little Eevee's "new home." Henceforth, during security checks in subways and airplanes, security personnel could simply scan the Poké Ball to link up with the Spirit Center network and verify if any criminals were trying to enter.

Although he had finished the important tasks, Fang Yuan felt somewhat disheartened now.

"What a pity, it seems like only standard Poké Balls are available on the market," Fang Yuan said in despair as he looked at Little Eevee.

"Bwoo..." Little Eevee also appeared listless.

At the moment, what Eevee was thinking was that although it didn't know why it should be listless, since the Trainer wasn't happy, it might as well feel the same and be done with it.

Fang Yuan sorrowfully put away the Poké Ball, not forgetting that Eevee's evolution branches of Solar Spirit and Moon Spirit evolved through bonding, and the type of Poké Ball was one effective way to increase closeness.

In the games and animations, there are two such Poké Balls.

The Friend Ball, which makes the captured Pokémon immediately become closer to the Trainer, is reflected in a numerical value.

The Luxury Ball, which is very comfortable to live in, makes the captured Pokémon become easier to bond with the Trainer, reflected in the efficiency of raising closeness.

Both of these Poké Balls are miraculous, and exactly what Fang Yuan wanted, for Eevee's use.

But alas, it seems they haven't been discovered in this world, or perhaps they have been researched but are not for sale.

Poké Balls can be said to be a very miraculous item indeed, capable of changing size. When large, they are big enough to fit in the palm, easy to handle, and when minimized, they are the size of a ping pong ball, easy to carry. Their primary function is that they can effortlessly contain a Pokémon that exceeds the size of a human, and it's thanks to them that Trainers have been able to develop.

"Never mind, Eevee, let's go," Fang Yuan said resignedly after pondering for a while, there would be opportunities in the future.

Ordinary people might not know what Poké Balls are made of, but Fang Yuan did. Poké Balls were simply made from Apricorns of different colors or a mix of metals. The most common Poké Balls were the red-and-white ones he was holding, which had the most basic functions.

If Fang Yuan remembered correctly, the core material for making Friend Balls was the Green Apricorn.

As for the Luxury Ball, he was not sure; he had never paid much attention.

As for other types of Poké Balls with different effects, he knew slightly more about their manufacturing materials.

Moreover, Apricorns and Tree Fruits, which initially were only produced in secret locations, were now being cultivated on a large scale for profit. Fang Yuan saw a considerable chance for himself to benefit from this.

"It's just not easy to explain. I don't know the other processes of making Poké Balls. It would be great if I could collaborate with someone trustworthy. It's so troublesome..." Fang Yuan realized that many things he knew were restricted and couldn't be transformed into resources to strengthen himself. There were just too many cultural differences between the two worlds, and these advantages might only be usable when he had a certain status or position.

"Don't worry, I will get you a more comfortable Poké Ball sooner or later," Fang Yuan said while walking and rubbing Eevee's head.

Next, Fang Yuan planned to take it for a walk.

Many New Trainers wouldn't immediately put their Pokemon to training or battle after hatching, and Fang Yuan was no exception. He felt that training and battles could wait until they got past the newborn phase, when their physical functions were more fully developed.

Although Fang Yuan had no plans to start training Eevee or engaging in battles anytime soon, this didn't stop him from watching others battle.

Unconsciously, the two of them had arrived at Pingcheng's public battle grounds.

Fang Yuan stood in the front row of seats near one of the battle fields, not sitting down but rather leaning on the railing with keen interest as he watched the match. At the same time, Eevee also widened its eyes, appearing very curious.

Having just completed the registration as a New Trainer, there were quite a few New Trainers gathered here, and some were even engaged in battle.

Although these battles were clumsy, they deeply moved the newbies, which led them to throw themselves into the fray one after another.

Fang Yuan was now a Trainer, and by showing his Trainer ID he could enter and watch the battles for free. If he weren't a Trainer, he would have to pay an entrance fee.

However, if Fang Yuan wanted to battle, that would cost him money, for he would have to pay to rent the battle field.

It's important to note that in the city, if Trainers want to battle each other, they can only do so in public battle grounds or in battle halls and clubs recognized by the Trainer Association. It's punishable to battle on the streets without a valid reason or to let Pokemon unleash moves randomly, with serious cases leading to the revocation of one's Trainer status.

Of course, in the wilderness, you can't just battle anywhere either. Every battle between Trainers has to be registered using their Trainer IDs, so most battles take place in official venues. Although these laws came into place later and might seem cumbersome, they have made society more stable.

"Bwoo~"

On the field, after a Weepinbell defeated a Nidoran, Eevee instantly showed a delighted expression, as if it had won the victory itself.

Um... Is Eevee interested in battling?

"Do you like it?"

Fang Yuan rubbed Eevee's forehead again, liking this action not only because he enjoyed it, but because Eevee seemed to find it comforting as well.

"Bwoo~~"Eevee nodded, but then it looked worried, knowing that it would probably be a different scene if it were to enter the battle itself.

"It seems I thought too much, you are quite clever," Fang Yuan said with a wry smile.

"No worries, when you grow up a bit more, I'll come up with a detailed training plan for you. Then, we'll beat everybody."

"Bwoo~" Eevee nodded with anticipation this time and then continued to watch the battle field.

Fang Yuan glanced at the sky and then continued watching as well, possibly spending the afternoon here.

However, he couldn't exactly compliment the level of these New Trainers.

The fact that they don't even know to shout, "Dodge quickly!" "I believe in you!" "Don't give up!" "Get up!" "Hang in there!"

These commands are like god-level skills...

Fang Yuan smiled inwardly, of course, these commands also depend on the Pokemon's own quality and the bond between the Pokemon and the Trainer.

As he watched, Fang Yuan began to ponder how he should formulate a special training plan for little Eevee...

Since he had the ability to come up with a nurturing plan for Grass-type spirits, there was no reason a special training plan would stump him.
