"The biggest function of the Pokédex is to accurately provide information about Pokémon. When aimed at a Pokémon, it provides detailed information about it."
Fuji introduced, then aimed the Pokédex at Vulpix, who was sleepy in Naruto's arms. Under Naruto's curious gaze, he pressed the button.
"Drip—Vulpix, Fire Type, Fox Pokémon
Characteristics: Flash Fire (When attacked by Fire-type moves, Vulpix absorbs the flames and makes its own Fire-type moves stronger.)
Moves: Ember, Tail Whip, Confuse Ray, Will-O-Wisp
Vulpix, a Fire-type Fox Pokémon with six beautiful tails. The number of tails will increase after evolution.
The move that Vulpix excels at is the Fire-type move. Flame Burst is Vulpix's powerful move, which seals the opponent's actions with intense flames and can cause significant damage."
Vulpix has the Flash Fire ability and has inherited the move Confuse Ray.
The Flash Fire ability is very useful in the ninja world, especially as many ninjas use fire-based techniques.
With Flash Fire, Vulpix can not only be immune to ordinary fire but also enhance its own Fire-type moves, which is highly advantageous.
"Characteristics? Moves?"
"Does it mean that Vulpix will be on fire?"
Naruto asked curiously.
"Characteristics are like passive abilities, special traits that every Pokémon has."
"For example, Vulpix has the Flash Fire ability, which is its primary trait. The other trait would be a hidden ability."
"You've seen the effects of Flash Fire in the Pokédex."
"As for moves, they are the techniques Vulpix has learned. The Pokédex contains all this information."
"Do you need one?"
Fuji offered with a familiar tone.
"Okay, give me one too, and I'll also take two boxes of Fire-type energy cubes."
Naruto looked at the money in his wallet and hesitated before taking out a bit more.
"The Pokédex is one thousand taels, and the high-quality energy cubes are five hundred taels each. The total is six thousand taels."
Fuji handed Naruto two boxes of Fire-type energy cubes.
"And as for your earlier question, yes, Vulpix does know Fire-type moves, which you can understand as fire abilities."
Fuji smiled and continued speaking.
Fuji didn't delve into a detailed explanation of attributes, knowing that Naruto might not fully grasp it. Even if he did understand, he might quickly forget.
"Really? Will Vulpix really perform like that?"
"It's so powerful; I don't even know how to use fire yet."
Naruto looked excited and amazed.
At ninja school, they only taught basic techniques like the Body Flicker Technique and kunai throwing, and not the advanced techniques requiring a change in Chakra nature.
At this stage, Naruto couldn't even master basic techniques like the Shadow Clone Jutsu due to the Nine-Tails' Chakra in his body.
"Of course, do you want Vulpix to show you what it can do?"
Fuji smiled and asked.
"Yes!"
Hearing that he was being asked to perform, Vulpix, who was initially sleepy, perked up.
"Vulpix, show Naruto your abilities by using Ember."
Fuji chuckled and threw a tissue near him.
Vulpix opened its mouth, and sparks shot out, igniting the tissue Fuji had thrown.
In an instant, the tissue burned.
"It's so powerful! It's really on fire!"
Seeing Vulpix's Ember move, Naruto's face lit up with excitement.
"Vulpix!"
Hearing Naruto's praise, Vulpix proudly raised its little head. It took a deep breath, and sparks continued to shoot from its mouth.
At the same time, Vulpix spun around.
In no time, Vulpix created a beautiful display of sparks around itself, resembling artificial fireworks.
"Wow, so beautiful."
Kurenai, who had just walked in, also saw the scene.
"Kurenai, it's been a while."
Fuji greeted Kurenai with a smile.
"Wow!"
After Vulpix's performance, it was a bit dizzy, and Naruto quickly held it in his arms.
Despite being a little dizzy, Vulpix heard everyone's praise and proudly accepted it.
Its face showed a desire for even more praise.
This expression was so cute that Kurenai couldn't help but want to gently pet Vulpix's head and pinch its cheeks.
