Chapter 151 The Axe-Splitting Mantis
Chapter 151 The Axe-Splitting Mantis
I selected a few Pokémon with a keen sense of smell or who knew certain skills to train Blademaster.
He then took Doronmesia and Mimikyu to the courtyard outside the residential area to prepare for Doronmesia's first training session.
Unlike the Azure Flame Blade Demon, who hatched from an egg, the leader of the Ghost Sea, Dorgon Mesia has been born for a long time.
Much of the training was already completed at the Imperial Dragon Family.
What Ghost Sea needs to do is no longer to give it basic training.
Instead, the goal is to allow this little guy to gain combat experience and learn more moves as it absorbs energy to improve itself.
Therefore, the training goal that Ghost Sea set for Dorgon Messia today is to learn the moves.
"Dronmesia, your moveset is already pretty good, but there are a few very common moves you don't know yet. Today, Mimikyu will teach you to defend this move."
Guihai also learned some information about Xiaoduolong from Longcang.
The Dragapult that Ghost Sea caught has the Penetrating ability, allowing it to penetrate moves like Protect and Substitute to hit its opponent.
However, for this reason, it is difficult for Little Dragon to understand and learn moves such as Protect and Substitute.
Previously, it was understandable that Little Dragon didn't have a fixed trainer, but now that it has followed Guihai, Guihai has the responsibility to teach it these two "interesting" moves.
Imagine this: during a battle, your opponent uses Protect, but Dragapult passes right through and hits you.
But when Dorgon defends, the opponent has no way to hit it, which must be incredibly frustrating for the opponent.
As he was speaking, Ghost Sea had Mimikyu demonstrate the versatile move Protect to Draco Messia.
He then used his previous experience of helping Gengar and the others learn this move to explain the technique to Dragapult in detail.
Doronmesia listened attentively to Ghostsea's explanation with its triangular little head, while Mimikyu occasionally chimed in with a few words. These experiences made it nod earnestly from time to time.
After that, you keep trying until you succeed, and only then can you consider proficiency and battles.
However, in front of this little dragon, no matter what defensive moves are used, they are not much different, so it is difficult for Ghost Sea to let it experience what Guard is really like.
Progress has been a little slow.
However, Ghostsea did have a way to train them. He simply had Mimikyu grab mud and throw it at Dragapult, and stipulated that Dragapult could not dodge and could only defend.
At this stage, Draco Messia cannot learn Reflect. If it wants to defend against Mimikyu's Mudball, it can only force itself to learn to defend.
At first, when faced with the mud thrown by Mimikyu, Draco Messia struggled to use any moves, even turning a pale color, and could only instinctively dodge.
When Ghostsea saw Doronmesia dodging, Mimikyu immediately froze it in place.
Therefore, if Dorgonmesia doesn't want to get hit by the smelly mud, he has no choice but to use Protect.
Other ranged attacks can also neutralize the slime.
Unfortunately, Dorronmecia will not be able to either.
Most of the techniques it learned in the Dragon Clan were close-combat moves, and things like Strange Light and Spells were completely ineffective against Mud.
If you start learning now, you'll learn faster than the Guardian that Guihai just explained.
Sure enough, after being hit by the foul-smelling mud several times, Dorgonmesia finally managed to conjure an almost invisible barrier in front of him.
And the barrier dissipated after neutralizing the sludge, but it was still considered a successful defense.
Next, you need to keep experiencing this feeling, keep practicing, and get proficient at it.
Of course, before continuing training, Ghost Sea personally helped Dorgonmesia clean up the smelly mud and then handed him some delicious berries and energy cubes.
"Dorummesia did a good job and learned very quickly."
Little Dragon initially harbored considerable resentment towards Ghost Sea's training methods, but those resentments were completely dispelled the moment he entered the energy cube entrance.
Instead, there is a sense of joy at learning new moves.
Guihai trained Xiaoduolong until after 10 a.m. before letting Xiaoduolong, who was almost exhausted, stop.
Preventing this move from being used consecutively, the morning's training almost exhausted all of Dorgon's energy.
Although it can be restored with tree fruits or medicine.
However, Ghost Sea didn't want to force things in this way. He preferred a balanced approach and let Mimikyu take Little Dragon back to the shadows to rest.
However, while Xiao Duolong was resting, Guihai still had things to do.
I glanced at the message Long Cang sent me, saying that the people he arranged to help with the experiment would arrive in the afternoon.
Gui Hai calculated the time and immediately selected two flying mantises to bring to the laboratory.
He needed to quickly familiarize himself with his new profession as a researcher, hoping to get a feel for doing research before the people who were supposed to help him arrived that afternoon, and incidentally, impress them and increase his credibility in their eyes.
The experimental subjects that Long Cang prepared for Gui Hai were all captured by Alliance prosecutors from poachers and terrorists.
A large portion of them were even captured by Oni-kai during his travels.
These Pokémon, having been trained by terrorists for so long, no longer possess the instinct to choose a new trainer.
So these Pokémon were sent here, becoming the cornerstone of the League's progress.
The two flying mantises in Guihai's hands were both his defeated opponents.
One was a poacher encountered on the way to Lava City, and the other was a trainer from the Revival Society at the Lava City Crater Base.
Faced with the sea of ghosts, the two Scythers had long lost their will to fight, and were led by the neck by Gengar and placed on the test table in a timid manner.
Gui Hai looked at the evolution process of the Scyther on the system and exchanged a Black Oddity Stone from the system.
This item allows Scyther to evolve into Scizor.
Currently, this item is not available in the materials cabinet of the prop lab, and it would be a waste of time for people to search for it, so Guihai will exchange for one from the system as a temporary measure.
The task is simple: just defeat the evolved Scizor.
The reason why Ghostsea chose to evolve into Scizor instead of Scizor.
It's because evolving Scyther into Scizor requires trading.
The process is a bit more complicated. Guihai just needs to get more familiar with it, find his rhythm, and do some simple experiments.
Gengar was instructed to keep an eye on Scyther's "Armor," and Ghost Sea placed the Black Stone on its body.
Amidst the terrified gaze of the flying mantis, the laboratory was filled with the white light of evolution.
Guihai took the sunglasses Gengar handed him and put them on, staring intently at the glowing Scyther.
A few seconds later, the light gradually faded.
It revealed the evolved form of the Scyther inside—the Scizor.
The emerald green shell faded, revealing a brownish-red shell underneath; the sickle transformed into a giant axe, and its back became even more hunched.
Before Gui Hai could even step forward to check the data and complete the system task, a surprised exclamation came from the doorway.
"What...what kind of Pokémon is this? Elite Four member, is this the evolution method you discovered?"
