Chapter 40: The Youth’s Complicated Thoughts
“This is a new product developed by the North American Alliance, a high-tech phone that integrates phone and Pokédex functions, but this phone is not sold on the market.
If you want it, I can go back and ask my dad to use merit points to exchange for one for you.”
Hearing this, Lu Li directly refused: “No need, I’m a breeder, it doesn’t matter if I have a Pokédex or not.”
Hearing that this thing also needed to be exchanged with merit points, Lu Li, who already owed Yu Zhonggang quite a few favors, really felt too embarrassed to ask again.
Saying he wasn’t interested in this thing would definitely be lying.
Even he, with his cheat ability, couldn’t see which skills the Pokémon had learned just by scanning.
Lu Li curiously asked: “Does this thing work on Pokémon Eggs?”
If this thing worked on Pokémon Eggs, then one thing could be very certain: the class gap in this world would be widened once again.
Yu Lili explained: “This currently can’t scan Pokémon Eggs, only mature Pokémon.”
Hearing this, Lu Li finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Now he was just an ordinary person, and when considering class interests, he would definitely prioritize the interests of ordinary people first.
Yu Lili asked: “Can you let Wailmer demonstrate the Rain Dance skill?”
Lu Li didn’t refuse after hearing this and directly shouted to the Wailmer at the bottom of the water vat: “Xiao Mei, don’t be angry anymore, Yu Lili has already apologized, come out quickly and perform your special skill.”
After hearing her trainer’s words, Wailmer floated to the surface with a tsundere expression, coldly glanced at Yu Lili, then released Rain Dance.
Rain fell drizzling down, and Yu Lili reached out to catch the raindrops falling from the sky.
“It’s actually really Rain Dance.” Yu Lili murmured to herself in disbelief.
Jin Huang looked at Wailmer in even greater disbelief, as if he had seen a deity from legends.
A Wailmer that knew Rain Dance was truly off the charts today.
After verifying that Wailmer knew Rain Dance, Yu Lili requested a bit embarrassedly: “Um… can Wailmer’s Rain Dance skill be taught? I want to let Squirtle learn the skill.”
Lu Li’s first reaction was to refuse, but Lu Li quickly realized.
Teaching Squirtle Rain Dance didn’t necessarily mean teaching Spirit Rain Technique; just teaching normal Rain Dance would do.
Although Wailmer had learned Rain Dance by learning Spirit Rain Technique, that didn’t mean Wailmer couldn’t use normal Rain Dance.
If it had mastered the advanced application of the skill, there was no reason it couldn’t use the lower-level version.
Lu Li said: “It’s possible, but it takes quite a bit of time, and Squirtle might not even learn it.”
Gym Leader Yu could even give a Heavenly King level breeding notebook, so Lu Li wouldn’t be stingy, but the special Rain Dance definitely couldn’t be taught.
A 16-year-old trainer developing a Pokémon Secret Technique like special Rain Dance would be too shocking if it got out; being an intermediate breeder was already high-profile enough, and any more would make Lu Li afraid of becoming a target.
Yu Lili hesitated a bit after hearing this; for Water Type Pokémon, if not building a rain team, the Rain Dance skill wasn’t actually essential.
But the problem was that her own Turtle’s ability was Drizzle; if Squirtle could learn Rain Dance, pairing rainy weather with Drizzle ability really tempted Yu Lili.
Thinking of her mother’s instructions to her, Yu Lili’s eyes instantly became determined.
Yu Lili said seriously: “There’s still a month until your Grand Festival, so for this month, Turtle and I can stay by your side to learn Rain Dance.”
Hearing this, Jin Huang’s facial expression changed, then he asked in panic: “You’re going to live together?”
Jin Huang also remembered his mother’s instructions to him; his successful apprenticeship under Gym Leader Yu could only be said to be the first step toward success.
To truly gain Gym Leader Yu’s inheritance, the best way was still to win over Master’s daughter; even marrying into the family would be a huge profit.
At the beginning, Jin Huang really hadn’t considered marrying in; in his view, a true trainer should step toward the peak one step at a time, not rely on freeloading off emotions.
But after two days of interaction, Jin Huang found he really had feelings for Lili—accurately, it should be worship.
Jin Huang found that Yu Lili was truly amazing, whether in Pokémon Battle or knowledge; Yu Lili could outclass him by miles.
Yu Lili was almost the most outstanding same-age trainer he had ever seen（Lu Li doesn’t count, because he is a breeder）.
“Mm…”
Lu Li also felt a bit awkward; after all, he was preparing to move.
Lu Li asked a bit embarrassedly: “Um… you might not know, I’m planning to move to the countryside in the next couple of days; are you sure you want to come with me?”
Hearing this, Yu Lili’s eyes lit up, then she asked excitedly: “To the countryside? Does that mean we can also go to the wilderness to battle wild Pokémon?”
“Probably?” Lu Li said somewhat hesitantly.
To be honest, Lu Li, who had lived alone for nearly ten years, actually didn’t like having someone else around, even a girl, but considering Gym Leader Yu’s favor to him, Lu Li ultimately chose to endure the discomfort.
Yu Lili directly decided: “Then it’s settled; contact me after you move, and I’ll come over to learn Rain Dance.”
Jin Huang carefully asked beside them: “Should we tell Master about this?”
“It’s fine, my parents will definitely support me.” Yu Lili said confidently.
She knew exactly what her mom was thinking; this kind of direct approach would only get full support from her mom.
Jin Huang, mouth slightly open and hesitant to speak, ultimately chose silence.
Next, the three chatted in the yard, from training Pokémon to the Pokémon Alliance, then from the Asian Alliance to the North American Alliance.
After a full two-plus hours, Yu Lili and Jin Huang reluctantly left Lu Li’s home.
Originally they wanted to stay for dinner, but Lu Li said he had to go back to his old home in the afternoon, so they let him off.
…………
After leaving Lu Li’s home, Jin Huang couldn’t wait to ask: “Senior Sister, are you sure you’re moving to the countryside to live with Lu Li?”
“Mm.” Yu Lili nodded calmly.
Jin Huang: “Then Teacher and them…”
“My parents will agree; Lu Li’s breeder talent is very suitable to be my partner, and my parents also support me and Lu Li getting together; most importantly…”
Yu Lili paused here, then gave Jin Huang a profound look.
In this world, 16 was already considered adult, and due to the overly abundant energy in this world, people in this world matured early in general.
Jin Huang’s little thoughts toward her, Yu Lili could of course detect; as an outstanding trainer, keen perception was essential.
“I also think Lu Li is pretty good; his talent as a breeder is very high, and with his support, I could even aim for Regional Heavenly King in the future.
Plus, his cooking is pretty good too; just thinking about being able to eat his cooking every day in the future makes me feel especially happy.” Yu Lili directly expressed her true feelings.
Yu Lili had no intention of stringing Jin Huang along, because even without Lu Li, Jin Huang wasn’t in her standards for a partner.
After all, wasn’t Milotic great? Wasn’t her own Turtle awesome? If she couldn’t find a partner who could help her, it would be better to pour all her emotions into Pokémon.
