Chapter 540 Natsu's "Infinite Swap" Tactic (2-in-1)

...

"Okay, Latios, let's go."

Above the clouds of the distant sky, a streak of blue light shot out, accompanied by a frantic burst of airflow, swiftly crossing the great distance.

And lying on top of this blue and white body was Natsu who had just spoken.

Psychic wrapped it up to protect it from the terrifying air currents of fast flight.

Tell the truth.

If you don't have Psychic, if you don't have strong physical fitness, it's highly not recommended to pick up a Pokémon like Latios.

Because it's too fast.

After all, not everyone has a "dumb" physique.

If you're not careful, you can fall straight off the ground.

Even if you held onto Latios' body tightly to prevent him from falling, your face would hurt from the wind.

Latios' way of flying to fly is no joke.

The name "Blue Plane" was nothing serious.

It really was the fastest Flying Pokémon Natsu had ever seen.

Even if it was a Pokémon stronger than Latios, as long as it wasn't a Pokémon with a huge difference in strength, very few could match Latios in terms of straight-line flight ability.

"Oss~~"

Latios nodded vigorously, slowly slowed down, and remained high in the sky.

From here, they could only see the peak of Mount Coronet through the clouds, and beneath the thick clouds were houses smaller than ants.

Natsu patted Latios neck with a smile, "Don't get too excited, the days when you can fly are still around."

"Oss!"

Appropriate.

Latios ends his childhood and enters his normal formative years as a Pokémon.

And.

Time spent only fifteen days.

Much shorter than Natsu had imagined.

Just now, it was Latios' first full speed fly after finishing his infancy, and it was also his first full speed fly with Natsu. It can be said that the speed is very excessive.

According to Latios' speed, as long as he grew to the Gym Leader level, Natsu felt that going back and forth between the northernmost and southernmost parts of the Sinnoh Region was only an hour or two.

This speed was already too much.

Of course, Latios wasn't strong enough to do this now, but in the future it was certain.

Starting today, Natsu can use Teleport Alakazam for close range and Latios' Flying ability for long range.

Even though Latios couldn't appear in front of others normally in a short period of time, it was absolutely fine to fly like this above the clouds.

And.

Latios, like Dragapult and Dreepy, has the ability to become invisible.

In the eyes of an outsider, you might be able to see Natsu running across the sky alone, and you have no idea what he's riding on, and maybe even too fast to recognize Natsu.

"Oss!"

Latios turned around.

Like a sword through the clouds, he quietly returned to the Pokémon ranch in Solaceon Town.

After 15 days, Natsu plans and adjusts the Pokémon ranch beforehand.

It is mainly divided into several areas.

The area of ​​ice and snow near Mount Coronet, where Froslass lives, and Ice-Type Pokémon that like cold air, currently have the Froslass family, the Abomasnow family, and the Vanilluxe family.

They have fully adapted to the environment there and are very comfortable.

Besides Abomasnow, Froslass and their children, there was also twice as much Vanilluxe. They are all Pokémon with gentler personalities and won't break out into conflict.

The area close to the north is the Rock area, where most of the Pokémon of Rock Type and Ground Type live, such as Mudsdale, Onix, Excadrill and so on.

Some of the rocks are original, some were excavated during the construction of Gyms and Pokemon ranch, and some were excavated from Mt. Coronet, which is rich in minerals and is one of their favorite foods.

The areas closer to the south are the heat zone and the Pokemon egg hatching area.

Due to the existence of a Centiskorch with several "Flame Body" Traits, with its long-term residence, the surrounding temperature would naturally increase.

All Pokémon eggs bred by Pokémon on Pokémon farms will be transported to this place for rapid hatching, speeding up the reproduction and development of Pokémon ranch.

There are many Pokémon living among them, and the Centiskorch, Turtonator, Darmanitan, Houndoom, and Salandit groups also make their home here.

Of course, Salandit is also in charge of the first line of defense on a Pokémon ranch.

The outskirts of Pokémon Ranch had essentially condensed into a faint circle of Poison Gas, in a transparent state without anyone noticing.

The most important region is naturally the Central Region, which is also the largest region.

Currently live mainly the Noivern family, the Cherrim family, the Combee family, and several Pokémon "tools" from Natsu that are gradually leaving the team.

Obviously, this should also be the most viable area for Pokémon expansion.

In addition, Natsu consciously asks Pokemon to clear a large empty area inside. He planned to grow all kinds of Berries here and leave them to Cherrims to take care of.

And his first goal of growing Berries was Berries with Fairy-Type energy.

This stuff is so cheap right now, so cheap. The price for buying saplings and even mature trees is very low. If he doesn't use it now, he may not be able to buy it later.

He had started hoarding Fairy-Type related stuff.

The next goal is to collect a bunch of Pokémon that aren't Fairy-Type yet, but will become Fairy-Type in the future.

For example Pokemon like Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Marill, Granbull, Mawile.

But even though this Pokemon didn't have the Fairy-Type Attribute, it wasn't cheap.

Besides, rushing to buy would definitely attract unnecessary attention, so he still held back and didn't do that.

But the schedule was already planned.

The most important thing was actually because he was short on funds.

Appropriate.

The funds are almost gone.

In Gym building, what Alliance provided was still a little worse, so he covered it himself.

After all, it is also the site himself in the future, and it is the most stable source of income. Investments like that only hurt a little.

The second is the consumption of types of Pokémon.

The growth of a Pokémon's power and the introduction of new Pokémon make its daily expenses even bigger.

Latios in particular.

The impact is quite large.

According to his current body, the King of Great Appetite alone had three Snorlax, Dragapult, and Latios.

Between them, Dragapult and Latios' food should not be arbitrary, so Snorlax was cheaper.

Now that Latios had entered a period of normal growth, the food he needed would deliver a spike.

Otherwise, it's easier to subdue a Pokémon than it is to cultivate a Pokémon.

The resources needed to grow Latios will never be less than the resources needed to grow a Quasi-Legend Pokemon.

Natsu thought.

He could probably last for more than a month, and if the Gym failed to generate a large income, the Gym would have to go out to make some extra money.

This does not include the investment required to hire some staff, referees, etc. after the Gym opens in the future.

Even though the Alliance would make up for it a bit, he estimated that it would definitely not be enough.

In general, he is just starting out everywhere, and it will be great if he does well, but it is very difficult at first.

"Chak yee~~"

Seeing Latios bring Natsu back, Togekiss immediately greeted him and circled around Natsu and Latios.

"Bart~~"

Behind Togekiss, there is a small tail.

Apparently Dreepy is without a doubt.

Dreepy has now become a quality little follower.

Roaming behind Togekiss all day enjoying another.

"Bart-"

Next to Natsu and Latios, Dragapult slowly made her appearance.

Dragapult can keep up with Latios' speed.

Dragapult was very happy with Latios' growth.

After all, apart from Natsu, Dragapult was the one who put the most effort into Latios, while still an egg.

It's no exaggeration to say that Dragapult has also watched Latios grow from a Pokémon egg to what he is today.

Dreepy slid into Dragapult's arms, mischievously.

Togekiss also rushed into Natsu's arms, almost making him fall straight from Latios.

Pat.

Natsu landed.

"Haha - well, don't make a fuss, is your training finished?" Natsu smiled and stroked Togekiss' wings.

"Chaky~~!"

Togekiss nodded loudly.

Recently, she had been working really hard to master the moves as quickly as possible.

"Buy~~"

"Buy~~"

"."

After Natsu landed, eight cute Eevee moved towards him indiscriminately and ran, constantly rubbing his feet.

Latios had ended his childhood, but these eight little Eevees had not.

Their small appearance is quite cute, and now their hair has been fully stretched, and the refined and luxurious look is even more so.

But Natsu noticed something strange.

Initially, these young Eevee are whitish gray, and as they grow, the color of the fur gradually changes, and the direction of moving towards brown and whitish gray gradually changes.

But something seems to have slowed down a bit, and the fur is still whitish gray.

Natsu took Eevee, whose fur was still whitish gray, and gently rubbed her belly, which was very soft.

"Buy~~"

Eevee narrowed her eyes.

She was enjoying the massage, or Eevee all enjoying the massage.

And now Natsu has a little hobby every day which is massaging Eevee.

Not to mention, after the massage, the mood will be very good.

"It's growing well, it's weird"

Take down Eevee.

Natsu didn't think much, turned his head and looked at Latios who was playing with some Pokemon.

Now that Latios is out of his infancy, he will soon be ready for training.

"Chimchar, get off Latios, I'll do a simple test." Natsu gestured with a smile.

"Cimm!"

Chimchar stuck out his tongue and jumped off Latios, three and two steps onto Natsu's shoulder.

"Latios, let me see your abilities."

How to say Latios is also a Divine Beast, even though it is a fake Divine Beast, and he invested With so many resources, pulling the crotch definitely won't pull the crotch, it depends on how much shock it can give him.

"Oss!"

Latios salute the knight.

Even though he hasn't trained or fought yet, it doesn't take a day or two to watch Natsu train his Pokémon.

Immediately show Natsu one by one what he currently has.

Final.

Natsu made a simple profile card for Latios.

Pokemon: Latios

Gender: Male

Attribute: Dragon Type + Psychic Type

Traits: Levitate

Strength Rating: Extraordinary level

Master Moves: Dragon Dance, Helping Hand, Recover, Confusion, Tailwind, Dragon Breath, Ally Switch, Luster Purge, Heal Pulse, Scale Shot

Extraordinary level power, this was just born for Latios, this is definitely a very high starting point, and also saves Natsu a lot of unnecessary time.

The ability to possess such power after adolescence is thought to have a lot to do with the large amount of dragon crystals and Dragon Scales that Natsu has invested.

And, according to Dragapult's meaning, Latios still has a lot of pure Dragon Type energy hidden in his body, but it has not been completely absorbed by it, but can be absorbed through training and battle. There will be a stage of rapid growth in internal strength.

A quick increase in strength is certainly a good thing, but it's not entirely a good thing.

This would make Latios' already shaky foundation even more unstable, causing him to experience a period of slow progress after this period of rapid strength gain.

So to avoid this possible situation, Natsu had to focus on laying a solid foundation for Latios' further training.

Apart from strength.

There weren't many moves that Latios could use, but there was one thing that could be said that every move was very practical.

"Dragon Dance" represented the innate talent of the Dragon Type Latios. Although Latios is a better Pokémon at special attacks, due to the existence of "Dragon Dance", his physical attack abilities may not be enough. How weak that is.

There's also the "Luster Purge" movement.

As a move exclusive to Pokemon like Latios, the power isn't very strong, but the additional effects are great. There was a good chance that it could reduce the opponent's special defensive ability. For Latios, who was the main attack method, it was definitely a key move.

In addition, what surprised Natsu the most were the "Ally Switch" and "Heal Pulse" movements.

With these two moves, Latios was able to quickly integrate into his team even though he was a little weaker.

And the "Ally Switch" move also allows Latios to perfectly fit into the core system Natsu is currently building.

After training, trying and summarizing this period of time, Natsu has chosen a good name for the lineup system with Alakazam as the core.

"Infinite Swap" system.

This is using Alakazam's "Ally Switch", "Teleport" and several other moves, as well as the characteristics and moves of each Pokemon, such as "U-Turn", "Baton Pass" and so on.

Let Pokémon face the enemies that benefit them the most while fighting.

Whether it's Attributes with restraint can cause good damage, or Attributes with resistance can be countered.

Obviously, Latios fits perfectly into this system.

Not only "Ally Switch" can diversify Natsu's tactics, "Heal Pulse" can ensure the continuity of the team, but Alakazam's "Psychic Terrain" can also bring Latios a hefty upgrade, complementing each other.

Even!

Natsu caressed Latios's protruding head tightly, and looked at Coronet Mountain towering in the distance, "In fact, I might be able to try making Latios a second core."

Double core lineup!

According to what Natsu currently knows, combined with some limited data, it is speculated that the dual-core lineup is relatively rare even among the current Elite Four in the current Alliance territory.

And if he could perfectly build a true dual-core lineup, it would definitely represent his upper limit and would usher in even greater heights!
