Yunqing immediately selected the four Pokémon eggs and told Sabrina telepathically:
"Sabrina, three of these eggs have Champion-level potential: Machop, Charmander, and Squirtle."
"The last one also has Champion-level potential: Riolu."
"Let's buy them all!"
"Oh?"
Sabrina looked surprised, then replied telepathically.
"I didn't expect this shop to have such high-potential eggs. Wait a moment!"
She immediately brought Yunqing to the counter and purchased all four eggs.
The Charmander and Squirtle eggs were more expensive, because they weren't from the ordinary egg-selection area—they came with detailed lineage information.
However, the parents of these two eggs were only at Gym Leader and Leader levels, yet the eggs themselves contained Champion-level potential.
That gave Yunqing the perfect chance to pick up a huge bargain.
After leaving the shop, Sabrina led Yunqing to visit every Pokémon egg store in Goldenrod City.
In the end, in addition to the first four eggs, they obtained even more:
Four Champion-level eggs—Pidgey, Bulbasaur, Growlithe, and Geodude—
And one Gastly with Champion-level potential.
After completing their shopping spree, Sabrina led Yunqing back.
As they walked, she couldn't help exclaiming telepathically:
"I never imagined that just the egg shops in Goldenrod City would have so many high-potential Pokémon eggs!"
"If we visited every egg shop across the entire Kanto region—or even every region in the world—who knows how many high-potential eggs we could collect!"
Yunqing's ability was simply too unbelievable.
"Hehe."
Yunqing smiled faintly.
"I'd like to, but it would take too much time."
"Besides, I probably can't stay here for long this time. My family must be worried about my safety."
"I need to return as soon as possible and let them know I'm safe."
"Even if nothing unexpected happens, the next time I can come will be a month later."
"This restriction in your world is frustrating… but I can understand it."
Arceus clearly set this limitation to prevent outsiders from traveling too frequently, which could easily plunge the Pokémon World into chaos.
"Is that so…"
Sabrina's cheerful mood immediately dimmed, and reluctance rose in her heart.
But she didn't say anything.
After all, Yunqing was only doing this so his family wouldn't worry.
She quickly changed the topic.
"Now that we've acquired so many high-potential Pokémon, is there any one you like and want to contract first?"
"And do you want me to introduce these Pokémon in detail?"
"No need."
Yunqing smiled and shook his head.
"I understand most Pokémon fairly well."
In fact, he might even know more than Sabrina.
Sabrina looked at Yunqing quietly, thinking to herself:
He's even more mysterious than I imagined.
Yunqing had only recently arrived in this world, yet he spoke as if he already understood everything.
Unless he was simply bragging…
That could only mean he possessed abilities she hadn't discovered yet—or his insight ability was far more complex than she had assumed.
But none of that mattered to Sabrina.
She had no intention of prying into Yunqing's secrets.
Yunqing continued.
"I think Riolu is the best choice."
"If I form a contract with it and receive its feedback, it should help me awaken Aura."
"Also, Fighting-type energy should greatly enhance physical strength, which can compensate for my weakness in that area."
"For humans to improve, we must cultivate three aspects: essence, energy, and spirit."
"It's best to strengthen all three at the same time, covering our weaknesses, so we can go further in the future."
At this point, Yunqing looked at Sabrina seriously and warned her:
"Sabrina, more worlds will definitely merge in the future."
"More power systems will appear, and even stronger individuals will emerge."
"So neither you nor I can afford to slack off."
"You're a top-tier psychic, so you must be careful when choosing your contracted Pokémon as well."
"You can contract one or two Psychic-type Pokémon to strengthen your advantage…"
"But if possible, I also hope you contract one or two Pokémon that can greatly enhance your physique and increase your physical potential."
"A body relying purely on psychic power is still too fragile and unbalanced."
Sabrina listened carefully and replied telepathically:
"Essence, energy, and spirit… that's a very insightful concept."
"I understand. I'll think carefully and choose properly."
"Also, if you want to enhance physical strength, you don't necessarily need Fighting-types. Dragon-types are even stronger in that regard."
"Of course… Riolu is indeed an excellent choice."
She was familiar with the legend of the Aura Hero.
"Yes."
Yunqing smiled knowingly.
"Dragon-types are indeed strong in every aspect."
"If I find a suitable one in the future, I'll definitely contract one or two pseudo-legendary Dragon-types."
However, finding pseudo-legendary Dragon-type eggs in ordinary egg shops was almost impossible.
It wasn't just a matter of rarity.
"I'll help you look for one."
Sabrina promised telepathically.
Yunqing didn't refuse.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
He didn't mind owing Sabrina a favor. He could always repay her with something better in the future.
With his memories of his previous life and the sign-in system, as long as he stayed grounded and didn't get arrogant, his future would be bright.
Soon, the two returned to Sabrina's yard behind the gym.
After arranging all the Pokémon eggs they had obtained that day, Sabrina looked at Yunqing and asked telepathically:
"You haven't practiced the meditation method Arceus gave you to condense a contract mark yet, right?"
"Yes."
Yunqing nodded.
"I haven't had time. As soon as the portal appeared, I prepared immediately and came here."
"However… that meditation method seems quite different from the one you taught me."
"Yes."
Sabrina nodded lightly.
"It is different."
"That method is a general meditation technique designed to increase mental strength."
"My meditation method is focused more on psychic cultivation, so the nature of the mental power it produces is different."
"However, you can first practice Arceus's meditation method, then merge the mental power you generate into your psychic power."
"That way, your psychic power will gradually gain those mental characteristics as well."
"After that, the mental power generated through psychic meditation can also be used to condense contract marks and even create a Pokémon contract space."
"Arceus's meditation method is extremely inclusive."
In other words, it wasn't easy for ordinary people to awaken psychic abilities while also increasing mental strength through meditation and Pokémon feedback.
They lacked the key psychic traits.
Unless they contracted Psychic-type Pokémon.
Even then, in terms of learning and applying psychic powers, they still couldn't compare to those born with psychic talent.
"I see."
Yunqing finally understood.
"I'll give it a try."
He immediately sat down cross-legged and began meditating using the method Arceus had bestowed.
The process went smoothly.
He entered a meditative state almost instantly.
After only a few minutes, he completed a cycle and produced a wisp of new mental energy.
Then, under his control, that wisp of mental energy merged easily into his original psychic power.
