Chapter 2

Slowking nods as he inspects the three children and got surprised when he started to inspect Milly.

"This child of yours has huge psychic potential. Unfortunately, she's born as an Azurill. If only she's a Psychic type pokemon, maybe I'll be able to pass her most of my knowledge." Slowking laments and shook his head.

"Fortunately, I have three psychic moves which I can pass on her. Bring her back to me after three months and I'll teach her. I hope she's at least a Marill at that time." Slowking says making Paps and Mom excited.

'Three moves! That's a great harvest for me, and that's only Psychic moves. I have to learn more moves from this Slowking after I learn those three.' Milly thought as she smirks.

"We'll go back now, Guardian. Thank you." Paps and Mom said as they bow and I copied them together with Filly and Silly.

"Go." Slowking calmly said and closed it's eyes as if pondering something.

After that, my life continued with me playing with my brothers and farming friendship bond with them so I can evolve.

At first I thought of just doing it for the sake of evolution, but then as time passes I got close with them.

"Milly, please teach me how to use Water Gun more efficiently." Filly asked making her nod.

"Hey, I asked first Filly. I need Milly to teach me Tail Whip, you know how bad I am at controlling my tail." Silly pouted making Filly nod and give in.

"Alright, you get your turn first but teach me next Milly afterwards." Filly said making Silly jump with joy.

"Okay, okay. Just let me finish practicing Belly Drum for three sets then I'll start teaching." I'm a great sister after all so I'll teach them.

'Being talented is so hard.' ( ^ > ^ )

A month has passed and my Water Gun and Tail Whip has reached the Basic Level of mastery.

[Moves: Water Gun (Basic), Tail Whip (Basic), Belly Drum]

The Basic Level of mastery makes it so that I execute the move at the expected range, damage, and effect. My Belly Drum move takes 3/4 of my HP and only increase my Attack stat by 2 stages which is inefficient. Thankfully, my parents support my training of this move and gave me 10 Oran berries so I can practice this move for a few sets.

A month has passed since we visited Slowking and everything is peaceful in this lake. No ferocious pokemon has disturbed the peace here for quite a while.

It has reason for this though, since I learned that there are other water type pokemon here that are strong. There is a Milotic and Gyarados here which are considered the sword and shield of Slowking. Those two are already strong, so it makes me wonder how strong that Slowking is.

Another month passed and this time, I have mastered my Belly Drum to the Basic Level but I'm not yet satisfied with it and continued practicing it as my focus. Of course, I didn't forget to practice my Water Gun and Tail Whip but it didn't advance in mastery yet but I am more flexible in using them.

Right now, I'm with my father to do some training and fight with other water pokemon from other families around the lake.

"Today, we'll be going to the Poliwrath to fight his son Poliwag. He's at the same age as you. Make sure to show how talented you are later." Paps said with an evil smirk.

'I can't wait to show Poliwrath that I have the best child compared to him.' The old Azumarill laughs evilly making Milly look at him with concern.

"Are you okay, Paps?"

"Ah! I'm okay, nothing to worry about." Paps did his usually smile making Milly sigh in relief.

After a few minutes of swimming, they arrived at another clearing with many Poliwrath, Poliwhirl, and Poliwag around. There family is three times bigger compared to Milly's.

"Poliwrath, I'm here with my daughter for the practice spar!" Paps shouted making many Poliwrath look at him but most of them got back to what they're doing except for one Poliwrath and Poliwag that swam towards them.

"So, you've arrived. This is my son Poliwag, say hi to them son." Poliwrath introduced as the Poliwag confidently introduce himself.

"Hello, uncle Azumarill and little Azurill. I'm Poliwag, nice to meet you." The Poliwag bowed and wag his tail as greeting.

"Hello, uncle Poliwrath and Poliwag. I'm Milly." I smiled as I also wave my tail as a sign of greeting. Poliwrath nods with satisfaction and shook hands with Paps.

"You remember our deal, right? If my son wins, he'll marry your daughter and live with my family in the future." Poliwrath says making me frown.

'Bastard Paps, made me a bet!' Milly frowned and looked at his father that is avoiding his gaze.

"Of course, but you do remember our deal too right? You have to teach my daughter two physical moves." Paps said making Milly's eyes sparkle.

"Yeah, I'll teach her Body Slam and Take Down. That is if she wins." Poliwrath laughs as if he's sure that his son will win.

'Let's see if you can still laugh after I win.' Milly thought.

"Let's go and find a suitable place for the spar." Paps says as he swims away from the Poliwrath settlement.

Soon they arrived at a clearing that has no pokemon around.

"I hear no movements around here." Paps said as Azumarill ears are very sensitive that they can even distinguish what Pokemon is around them just by the sound they make.

"Great! Poliwag and Milly go and position yourselves." Poliwrath ordered which the two followed quickly.

"The rules of this match is easy. No one is allowed to kill or severely injure one another. The one who first feints is the loser and the last remaining pokemon standing is the winner. Is that clear." Paps instructed as we position ourselves.

"Yes!" Both of us answers.

"Good. Are you both ready?"

"Yes!"

"When this rock I'm holding falls, the match will start." As Poliwrath finish saying that, he threw the rock up and I and Poliwag both look at it at the same time.
