Pokémon: An Encounter with You

"Students, please pay attention!" Liu Ling knocked on the podium.

"Next month, our school will organize a comprehensive exam for all grades to replace this monthly exam. Unlike in the past, there will be no written test results this time. The focus will be on your combat strength and the level of your spirits."

"The actual combat assessment simulates the points system of the regional competitions. The referees for each game are teachers from the senior grade group. They will also give you one or two points based on your on-the-spot performance and play."

"Finally, the top 64 students in each grade will participate in the qualifying round. The top three students in each grade will participate in summer camps organized by major universities in China with senior students organized by the college."

"This exam is very important. Your performance on the spot will be of great help to you in your future college admissions. Especially the top three, you can experience the college summer camp activities in advance. Everyone should work hard during this period!"

When the students below heard this, they immediately started whispering.

"The top three are almost guaranteed to be selected as special recruits when they reach senior year."

"It depends on the individual's command, right? I can just let the elves collide, okay?"

Liu Ling frowned and knocked on the table.

"Quiet!"

"I have printed out the other detailed scoring rules and posted them in front. Class is starting now!"

Shi Qiu came from an orphanage, so he naturally had no ability to obtain Pokémon at the beginning. All his tests were done through his special ability to communicate with various wild Pokémon.

Later, when the school learned about his excellent grades, they allowed him to borrow one of the elves from the school ecological park to help him until he had his own elf.

Well, that time he almost took away an elite beginner-level nanny bug and abducted one of the leaders of the ecological park. In the end, he replaced it with a novice level 7 Eevee, but returned it after Shi Qiu met the Bubble Squirrel.

Now, the Eevee would come to meet Shi Qiu every day, rub against him, hug him and kiss him, and then go back reluctantly.

Oh~ It can be seen that its affinity is so terrifying.

Thinking back to when Bubble Squirrel first met Eevee, the two little guys both had an expression that said, "How dare you have a Pokémon outside without telling me?" Shi Qiu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

During his lunch break, he clicked on the panel of the foam squirrel in the simulator.

[Race: Foam Chinchilla]

[Attribute: General]

[Characteristics: Technical master]

[Level: 12 (Ordinary Level )]

[Skills learned: Pat (+5), Round Eyes, Sing (+6), Help]

[Teaching moves: Sobering Slap]

In the [Secret Space], you can train the elves in three aspects: level, special skills and talents. Each training will have a level bonus, but there will be a certain rest time or cooldown time after training.

Shi Qiu saw that the speed of the Bubble Squirrel had also broken through one level after today's simulator training. With nothing else to do, he decided to continue exploring the map.

【You have entered Route A. 】

Options pop up: [Explore Route A] and [Continue moving forward].

Shi Qiu chose to 'keep moving forward'.

[You have arrived at the a-1 forest area.]

[You encountered a weak ranger! ]

The Forest Ranger is the gatekeeper NPC of the new area. It is a level that Bubble Squirrel has been beaten dozens of times but still hasn't been able to pass.

【The weak ranger sent out Riolu.】

[Race: Riolu]

[Attribute: Fighting]

[Level: 24 (Intermediate Professional Level)]

【Riolu used a feint. 】

Shi Qiu breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the foam squirrel which had only a trace of health left.

[Bubble Squirrel used Sing. Riolu fell asleep. ]

[Bubble Squirrel uses Slap. Riolu wakes up.]

There was a big difference in level between the two, so it was not surprising that he woke up in seconds, Shi Qiu thought expressionlessly.

[Riolu used Rock Crush.]

【The foam squirrel fell down. 】

[You are defeated, and your eyes are dark.]

"Ah, I lost. Let's challenge again." It's just a bit useless. Foam Squirrel.

[You are defeated.] +1

+2, +3…+10…

As the number of times increased, even though Shi Qiu had discussed it with Little Gray Mouse in advance, he began to consider the necessity of continuing to be stubborn.

In theory, it is possible for the current Bubble Squirrel to defeat Riolu:

First, Riolu starts with a feint instead of any other attacking moves.

Second, the singing of the Bubble Chinchilla was judged to be a successful hit.

Third, the sleep rounds must reach the theoretical maximum of three rounds. Then, a combo of Bubble Slap + Slap + Wake Up Slap should be able to send the squirrel away.

This is because the game simulation has a strong turn-based mechanism. In reality... haha, ordinary elves are not worthy of the profession of touching porcelain.

[Bubble Squirrel used Slap. Riolu is sleeping.]

Shi Qiu's eyes lit up: "There's hope!"

This is the first time that the sleep state lasted until the third round.

【Bubble Chinchilla uses Sober Slap.】

Looking at Riolu's health bar slowly decreasing and finally staying steadily at the last bit, Shi Qiu almost cursed.

Oops, the calculation was wrong.

Why does the opponent have a health lock?

"Unfortunately, it was almost there."

[Riolu wakes up, and uses Self-Motivation. 】

[Riolu's Attack and Special Attack have been increased! 】

Ok?

Is there any self-motivation in the opponent's Riolu's skill pool?

[Bubble Chinchilla uses Slap.]

[Riolu fell, and Bubble Squirrel gained a lot of experience points. ]

[Bubble Squirrel's level has been raised to level 16. 】

【The Bubble Chinchilla has learned to echo.】

Although Riolu has a health lock + mid-level professional skill, the NPC trainer on the opposite side is an artificial idiot.

【You defeated the weak ranger. 】

[You have obtained a forest ticket, a skill training capsule*1, 10 Poké Balls, 1 Ultra Ball, and 400 gold coins. ]

"Wow, is the reward so generous?" Shi Qiu's eyes lit up.

Generally speaking, when you defeat a wild Pokémon, in most cases you get nothing, only Pokémon experience bonus, and occasionally a few dozen gold coins will drop.

Skill training capsules are considered scarce supplies.

Shi Qiu only got one in the very beginning of the [Secret Space] and used it on the Foam Squirrel.

Then, Shi Qiu clicked on other rewards.

[Ticket to the forest: A ticket full of natural atmosphere, perhaps with mysterious uses. ]

[Skill Training Capsule: Directly improves the proficiency of level 1 elf skills. ]

Shi Qiu thought about it and decided to wait until the attack reaches +9 before using it on the Bubble Squirrel. Maybe it will become a watershed and bottleneck when it reaches level 10.

As for the forest ticket, it should be useful for subsequent exploration of the forest?

At this time, new text popped up in the simulator.
