Bagon's friendliness began to rise at a visible rate.
Kawaki, however, didn't pay it much mind.
Because sometimes, the bond between him and a Pokémon couldn't be replaced by concrete numbers.
Thinking of this, Kawaki stood up and said to the two Pokémon, "Alright, you can train on your own now. Bagon, if you want to continue battling, you can do so with Growlithe. I need to go open the Breeding House. I'll give you your respective training plans this afternoon."
"Mew."
"Woof woof!"
The two Pokémon quickly agreed, staying in the backyard to continue their training through sparring.
Meanwhile, Kawaki returned to the Breeding House, beginning to ponder how to best train the two Pokémon.
Compared to Bagon, Growlithe's abilities were quite balanced; it could go either the special attack or physical attack route.
Its Intimidate ability, when facing certain physical attacker Pokémon, could even produce unexpected effects.
And Arcanine, into which it evolves, would see all its abilities improve, especially its speed, for which Arcanine was famously fast.
"So—let's go for balanced development, training all its abilities," Kawaki thought.
Among the top-tier Energy Cubes his master gave him, there were several that boosted Pokémon's abilities and strengthened their muscle and bone density.
With long-term consumption and proper training, it was only a matter of time before Growlithe became a perfect Pokémon.
Compared to Growlithe, Bagon was more skilled in strength and speed.
However, being a pseudo-legendary Pokémon, after truly growing up, it could also be considered a well-rounded fighter.
Especially after Mega Evolving, its physical attack base stat reached an exaggerated 145, physical defense 130, special attack 120, speed 120, and even its least proficient special defense had a value of 90.
Its total base stat of 700 could even rival some Legendary Pokémon.
It's worth noting that even the regular form of Mewtwo only had a base stat of 680.
However, the real world was not a game after all. The base stats Kawaki understood could only be used as a reference. A Pokémon's specific strength still depended on the breeder's training.
In a brief moment of thought, Kawaki had already formulated a complete training plan for the two Pokémon.
After finalizing the last word, he put down his pen, ready to follow these two plans to train Bagon and Growlithe.
Just then, Gastly suddenly floated over.
It looked very envious: "Kekeke—"
Kawaki turned to look, "What's wrong, Gastly?"
The image of Kawaki comforting the two Pokémon just now appeared in Gastly's mind, and its eyes immediately filled with envy: "Kekeke!"
It also wanted to be praised by Kawaki like that!
Kawaki didn't quite understand Gastly's meaning; he thought Gastly was bored because no one was playing with it, so he said:
"Wait a moment. I'll play with you after I finish my work here."
As soon as Gastly heard Kawaki would play with it, it immediately became happy.
"Kekeke!"
But before that, Kawaki had one more thing to do.
He first asked Gastly to wait there for a moment, while he went to the phone and called Officer Jenny.
Soon, the call connected.
"Hello, Kawaki?" Officer Jenny's voice came from the other end: "Did something happen?"
"No, Xiao Chun Jie, I wanted to ask, how does one become a ranger for Akiba Forest?" Kawaki asked.
"Ranger?" Officer Jenny immediately thought of that forest. As far as she knew, the ranger position for that forest had been vacant for three years.
She thought for a moment and replied, "First, you need to go to the Forestry Bureau in Fallarbor Town to apply for ranger qualifications. Compared to being a breeder, becoming a ranger is much easier."
"A ranger's job usually only involves protecting the forest, rescuing Pokémon in the forest, and preventing poachers. But can you handle it over there? Why would you suddenly want to be a ranger?" Officer Jenny was a bit puzzled.
Kawaki had already prepared for this question.
"I want to inherit my father's legacy," he replied.
"I see," Officer Jenny nodded: "In that case, I'll go help you apply later. Like breeders, rangers also receive a monthly subsidy."
"Then I'll trouble you, Xiao Chun Jie!" Kawaki thanked her.
"You're welcome. I'll go ask about the situation at the Forestry Bureau now and get back to you with an update."
"Okay."
Officer Jenny chuckled softly and hung up the phone.
Kawaki had already planned in his mind how to fulfill the duties of a ranger.
His strength alone might be too weak, but if the strength of the Pokémon in this forest was combined, then they could definitely protect this forest.
Swellow, Zigzagoon—
Kawaki believed that these Pokémon he had rescued and fed would be very happy to help him.
Using the power of Pokémon as eyes to monitor whether suspicious individuals entered the forest, find injured Pokémon,
and transmit these messages back to the Breeding House.
At that time, he and Bewear could go to rescue the Pokémon and stop the poachers.
With such cooperation, he believed it wouldn't be long before he collected all one hundred Viridian Power Shards.
By then, he would no longer have to worry about not understanding Pokémon's speech or being unable to grasp their thoughts in time.
Returning to the counter, Gastly was still waiting there.
Looking at Gastly in front of him, Kawaki couldn't help but start thinking about the information on Gastly, this type of Pokémon.
Gastly, a gas-type Pokémon, whose final evolution, Gengar, possesses both strength and popularity, is a very cute big purple fatty.
And more importantly, Gengar's body is connected to another dimension, just like Doraemon's Four-Dimensional Pocket; it can store many things.
Currently, Kawaki's team only had two Pokémon that he considered his main Pokémon.
They were: Growlithe and Bagon.
So, should he add a Gastly?
More importantly, this Gastly got along very well with him and liked him a lot.
Thinking of this, Kawaki looked at Gastly in front of him and asked, "Gastly, do you want to become my Pokémon?"
"Kekeke?!" Gastly immediately widened its eyes, looking over in disbelief.
Could it also?
Seeing Gastly's expression, Kawaki couldn't help but smile, "That's right, I believe you can also become a very powerful Pokémon. You're just a little Gastly now, but later you can evolve into Haunter, and then the even more powerful Gengar."
"Kekeke..." Gastly listened to these words in a daze.
Could it really?
Just like that Bagon and that Growlithe?
"So, are you willing to become my Pokémon?" Kawaki asked.
He also really liked Pokémon like Gengar, especially since Gengar could also Mega Evolve.
"Kekeke" Gastly had never imagined such a thing would happen to it one day. It nodded eagerly in agreement: "Kekeke!"
