Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: The Morning Jogging Girl and Squirtle

Early morning,

The first ray of sunlight shone into the cabin.

Alex got up early and went to the plantation, mainly to check on the plants planted yesterday.

One night's work.

Some seeds had already sprouted, and some were even several centimeters tall.

This made Alex nod his head repeatedly, "The Golden Kela given by this system is really strong!"

In this world,

Although the growth rate of most plants is faster than in the previous life,

It's not this fast.

At most, it's only two or three times faster.

Then the growth environment can be better controlled.

After all, there are unreasonable supernatural creatures like Pokémon.

After watering,

Alex returned to the room.

Snivy and Feebas were both awake, the former standing in front of the window to greet the morning sun.

The latter was like a statue, looking at Alex with dull eyes.

Alex took out the Pecha Berry energy cubes left over from yesterday, transferred them into a small bowl, and called out to Snivy, "Come, it's time for breakfast."

"Tep Tep."

Snivy responded. Although it was still a little embarrassed, it was able to accept its current identity.

It took the bowl, placed it on the table, and elegantly picked up an energy cube and started eating it.

Alex walked to Feebas again, crushed and gripped an energy block, and threw it in.

Feebas' scales still had some bumps and pits.

If we evolve it now,

Although the Prism Scale can greatly deal with these flaws, it will still affect the beauty after evolution. Rather than waiting until it becomes difficult to deal with them at that time, it is better to solve them during Feebas.

This is not a big problem.

As long as you change the water frequently and feed the energy cube well, these bumps will be smoothed out in about half a month.

However, a word from the system broke his idea.

[Congratulations to the host for raising Feebas's happiness value from 60% to 75%. Rewards: 10 bags of Golden Kela, one Rare Candy, and a maintenance energy cube formula.]

"Um...."

Maybe it won't take half a month?

Alex looked at Feebas strangely.

It was happily eating the energy cube inside.

It had no idea that because of the improvement in its happiness, Alex had obtained another good thing suitable for it.

"It seems that the day when the ugly duckling turns into a beautiful swan is not far away," Alex sighed, and no longer paid attention to Feebas. Instead, he walked to the door and opened the door of the Breeder's house.

Today's task is to get his Breeder certificate, buy some things needed for the Breeder house, and register Snivy and Feebas under the Breeder house.

The law of the Donghua Alliance is:

If you capture a Pokémon, you must register the Pokémon's information within seven days.

And... a fledgling Trainer can only capture one Pokémon at most!

As your Trainer level increases, the number of Pokémon you can capture will gradually increase.

But there is no such rule in Breeder's house.

If you have a Breeder House under your name, you can capture even more Pokémon...

Turning his head to look at the two Pokémon that had already eaten,

Alex was about to put them into the Poké Ball.

Behind him,

A shout suddenly made him pause.

"Alex~!"

Turning his head, he saw a beautiful young girl in white.

The girl was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and cotton sweatpants, with a short ponytail. Her eyes were as clear as water, with a somewhat dazed feeling. Her face was a little round, revealing collagen that was full of youthfulness.

It looked like she was out for a morning jog.

When the girl saw Alex, her eyes lit up and she immediately turned around and ran over.

By her side,

There was also a Squirtle with a hopeless expression, breathing heavily.

"Huh? Why are you back? Is it summer vacation?"

Alex was a little surprised.

The girl's name is Lily. She is Grandpa Jack's granddaughter. Like him, she is studying at Pine Pokémon No. 1 Middle School in Pine City.

The difference is,

Lily is currently in the second year of high school, and he has already graduated.

Two people from a small town.

After his parents disappeared,

Grandpa Jack also took good care of him and often sent some seasonal food to Alex.

He also asked Alex to take good care of Lily in school.

After a few interactions, the relationship between the two was pretty good.

"Yes, yes! Summer vacation started yesterday, and I came back last night!"

Lily said excitedly, and then pulled Squirtle next to her, "Look, Alex~ This is the Pokémon I just captured! Squirtle, come and say hello!"

"Squirtle, Squirtle..."

Squirtle greeted weakly, sweat beading on its forehead.

Obviously, it was very resentful about being woken up early for a morning run.

"Puff...."

Looking at Squirtle like this,

Alex couldn't help but laugh.

The three starter Pokémon are not rare in this world, but they are not very common Pokémon either.

Normally only a middle-class family can afford one.

Alex knew Lily's family situation.

Her father is a trainer at the gym, and her mother is a nurse at the Pokémon Hospital.

If the two of them save some money, they can buy a Squirtle for their only daughter.

"Well, it's not bad. Except for the lack of luster in its eyes, its skin is bright and its limbs are strong. It's a good Pokémon. By the way, did you finally pass the junior trainer assessment?"

Alex said with some emotion.

After nine years of compulsory education, if you want to become a formal Trainer, you must pass the Trainer assessment!

The primary trainer assessment is only theoretical knowledge.

For normal people, it is not difficult.

He passed it when he was in the first year of high school.

After all,

If you don't even know some basic Pokémon knowledge,

Then why become a Trainer?

But Lily in front of him,

As far as Alex knows,

She has taken the Junior Trainer exam three times.

Well... not once.

But she has an extremely lively personality and is a pure sports enthusiast.

Sometimes, Alex wondered if everything she ate had an effect on her body development.

Anyway, it always gives people the impression that she is not very intelligent.

Squirtle would probably suffer a little if it followed her.

"Hehe..."

"I finally passed the last exam..."

Lily touched her head embarrassedly.

As if she suddenly remembered something, she quickly asked, "I heard that you don't plan to be a Trainer? Why? Your liberal arts grades are so good, why don't you capture a Pokémon!?"

"It is precisely because of my good performance in liberal arts that I should be a Breeder. I am not very interested in traveling around for the time being."

Alex moved aside to let her in and explained.

"Oh," Lily looked thoughtful, but soon she was attracted by Snivy who was eating the energy cube, her eyes bursting with intense excitement, "Alex, is this your Pokémon? Snivy! Let's have a battle between Trainers!"

Alex: ???

I feel like you didn't listen to anything I just said...

"Tep?"

Snivy finished eating the last energy cube, glanced at Squirtle who was panting heavily, and then looked at Alex.

It seemed to be saying, do you want to fight?
