Chapter 97 Rotom Lacking an Opportunity (Bonus Chapter for Author Yi Fengling)
South of Tai Island lies an archipelago known in Alliance documents as the Creven Islands.
These islands are not very large.
The largest is only the size of two or three football fields, while the smallest can only accommodate one person.
Gui Hai steered his small boat through the gaps between the islands, finally stopping at the edge of a larger island.
"Let's camp here today. Gengar, set up the tent, and Rotom, go gather some firewood."
Stepping onto the somewhat dry open ground of the small island, Ghost Sea commanded Gengar and the others to move.
Today is the third day after the Moltres incident was resolved.
Since all the timed missions had been completed, Guihai wasn't in a hurry to travel any further.
In addition, Gengar and the others need time to process the gains they made in battles along the way.
So Guihai leisurely sailed his small boat and experienced life at sea.
Everything else was fine, but what disappointed Guihai was that, because of the shadows around him, he couldn't catch any creatures at all.
Because of him, Gengar and the others were also stranded at sea for three days.
Fortunately, the Ghost Sea has no shortage of supplies, so even if you don't catch any fish, you won't starve.
Today is the first time they've set foot on land in three days, so they can rest here for a while.
Perfect timing, Onikai also wants to train Tanjiro here.
From hatching until now, Guihai has never trained them; he has only made sure they eat well, sleep well, and play well.
Today, these two little guys finally digested the energy they had consumed over the past period, and their level reached level 10.
Guihai felt it was time to begin basic training.
Once the Ghost Sea reaches level 20, you can use either the Celebration Armor or the Cursed Armor to force them to choose to evolve.
"Cang, Yan, come here for a moment."
The Gengar and the others got to work, setting up tents and gathering firewood.
The two little charcoal servants were also excited and wanted to go forward to help, but Onihai called the two little guys to his side first.
Seeing the confusion in the eyes of the two little ones, Guihai reached out and patted their heads.
"Do you want to become stronger? If so, then we'll begin training today."
Before, they didn't know what the trainer was calling them, but now that they heard they could finally start training, sparks flew from the eyes of the two Charcoal Sprites, and the flames on their helmets, like red tassels, rose even higher.
"Tantan."
Seeing the two little ones nod, Guihai took out the training plan that he had perfected over the past few days.
"You are still in a period of rapid growth, so our primary training goal is to improve your level by digesting the energy you consume, and our secondary goal is to learn more moves."
Once you reach around level 15, we'll find some wild Pokémon here for practical training, focusing on learning how to use their moves.
Listening to the trainer's plans for them, the flames in the eyes of the two Charcoal Sprites burned even brighter.
Seeing their high spirits, Guihai took out two sets of training weights that Mimikyu had used before.
“It seems no one has given up. Now, you will carry these weights and run three laps around this open space.”
Tan Xiaoshi looked at the weights on the ground, nodded seriously, put them on his feet, and started running around the camp.
Pokémon and humans are similar in many ways.
However, Pokémon grow faster and have a higher potential than humans.
Using human training methods can also effectively unleash the power of Pokémon; simply learning moves won't make them stronger.
Gengar and the other older brothers watched the two little guys begin training, their gazes softening as if they were recalling the time when they first started training.
Gengar even put on a dramatic act, looking at the two Charizards with teary eyes and shouting, "Kukai! (Keep going! We're all getting old, the future belongs to you!)"
Guihai stared at the system panel, recording the data of the two little guys. When he heard Gengar's words, he barely managed to suppress his eye roll.
"Gengar, once the tent is set up, go train with Rotom. It might be getting some new insights soon."
Upon hearing this, Gengar licked away the tears that had inexplicably flowed from its crimson tongue and grinned at Rotom.
Rotom also put down the firewood, activated the flight module on his back, and flew onto the sea.
Gengar and Rotom quickly started fighting.
However, this time both Pokémon used Electric-type moves.
The air itself seemed electrified by the two men's moves, making even the distant Oni-kai feel as if he were "enraged."
Gui Hai looked in that direction, and the system panel popped up.
Name: Gengar
Attributes: Ghost, Poison
Level: 102 (Champion-level Pokémon)
Mastery of the Origin Progress: 72% (Ghost)
Name: Mimikyu.
Attributes: Ghost, Fairy
Level: 98 (Elite Four Pokémon)
Mastery of the Origin Progress: 59% (Ghost)
Name: Double Sword Sheaths
Attributes: Steel, Ghost
Level: 44 (Professional Pokémon)
Progress in mastering the origin: None
Name: Rotom
Attributes: Electric, Ghost
Level: 94 (Elite Four Pokémon)
Mastery of the Origin Progress: 35% (Ghost) 0% (Electric)
Guihai was always aware of the progress his Pokémon had made.
However, Rotom was still pleasantly surprised by his gains from this battle against Moltres and the Gyarados pack.
Although it has not yet grasped the essence of electric properties, it is very close to doing so.
And it's all reflected on the system panel.
Now Rotom just needs an opportunity, maybe a flash of inspiration, maybe a battle, or maybe just a good night's sleep.
With just this one opportunity, Rotom will become the first Pokémon in the Ghost Sea team to master both Origin and Origin.
However, no matter what, Rotom still lacked that crucial opportunity.
Without this, it cannot be considered to have grasped the dual origins.
Ghost Sea watched the battle between Rotom and Gengar on the sea and shook his head slightly.
Gengar and the others are too familiar with each other. Although they used their full strength in the battle, it looked like they were just playing around.
Such unexciting battles are unlikely to create an opportunity.
If there is a strong opponent, it would be best to have one with an electric attribute fight him.
When Guihai thought of the Electric type, he subconsciously pictured Fu Jing with her hair slightly curled from being electrified by Pokémon.
Most of the trainers in their family are skilled in Electric-type attacks. If Ghost Sea could fight one of their strongest members, Rotom would be very confident that he could learn something from the battle.
But then Guihai shook his head.
Although Fu Jing's family specializes in Electric-type Pokémon, their family is quite peculiar.
Unlike the Dragon Clan, they don't focus on Pokémon training and pursuing strength.
Instead, he prefers to study various machines and develop various instruments.
They have undertaken the development of almost all of the alliance's high-end technologies.
Even Fu Jing herself prefers tinkering with signal codes and such.
Most people aren't particularly interested in fighting, so it's rare to spot them outside their clan's territory.
Moreover, their home is still quite far from where Guihai is now. By the time Guihai gets there, Rotom will probably have already comprehended the origin on his own.
Just as Ghostsea was racking his brains over where to find a suitable opponent to give Rotom a jolt, a bird's cry suddenly came from the sky.
What followed was a powerful aura...
