Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

Wang Jin slept until the next day.

When the sun just rose and the red glow was tinged on Quanguan City, the steel armored crows flying over the city began to cry.

The beige curtains in the bedroom emitted a faint light that shone onto Wang Jin's face. He subconsciously opened his eyes and felt more energetic than ever.

"bass!"

The curtains were drawn, and the dim morning light shone on the face of the young titmouse that was curled up and sleeping in the nest. It also opened its eyes hazily and looked into Wang Jin's eyes.

"It's time to get up and train!" Wang Jin picked up the somewhat confused chick with one hand and pulled up Gastly lying in the nest.

"Na-hi~"

Gastly yawned with his mouth wide open, revealing two small fangs.

After a while.

After Wang Jin finished washing up, he simply shaved off the newly grown beard on his lips, wiped his face with clean water twice, and then went out with Gastly and Chickadee.

The street had been cleaned by the people of the Marrokomon Group. The asphalt road was dark and moist, and gave off a smell of earth.

Wang Jin jogged all the way from the street on the west side of Quanguan City to Central Street and entered a restaurant that opened early.

He was sweating a little and was very hungry.

After simply spending more than a hundred Alliance Coins, Chickadee and Gastly were also filled with energy cubes.

Wang Jin prepared to go to the Quanguan Arena to train in the professional training ground inside.

Take the gear elevator to the second floor of Quanguan City. Go straight ahead and you will see a huge bronze door standing. The 24-hour Pokémon Center is right next to it.

This is the gate to the Quanguan Arena.

It was only six in the morning, and there were already many trainers coming and going nearby. They rushed in aggressively, and soon ran out of the arena with Pokémon in their arms, anxiously entering the Pokémon Center.

After a quick look, Wang Jin walked in. Inside was a tall arched passage, at the end of which were two Alliance trainers in white uniforms standing like security guards, and they were indeed security guards.

A bronze belt blocked the end of the passage behind two security guards. That was where only the participants of the gym challenge could enter, and inside was the Quanguan City Gym.

There are many dark blue translucent doors on both sides of the passage, which are automatic elevators.

There is a registrar sitting at a desk in front of each elevator, asking trainers to show their ID cards.

Wang Jin casually walked to an automatic elevator on the left, took out his ID card and handed it to the burly man in white uniform in front of him.

"Training or looking for a sparring partner?" The big man swiped his ID card and buried his head in typing on the notebook at hand.

"train."

"There are three levels of training grounds: elementary, intermediate, and advanced. The elementary level is public, while the intermediate and advanced levels are private. They cost 100, 300, and 500 Alliance coins per hour respectively... Tell us the level and time, then pay. Credit cards are accepted."

The man in white uniform said this skillfully, then stopped what he was doing and waited for Wang Jin's response.

"Intermediate, five hours." After Wang Jin paid the money, the big man waved his hand and started typing on the keyboard.

Wang Jin didn't know the specific differences between the three levels of trainers, but he didn't want to share the training ground with others. So he chose the intermediate level at the beginning, so that he could go directly to eat after five hours.

After taking the elevator to the corresponding floor, there is a straight passage. On one side are dense old-fashioned copper windows, and you can easily see half of Quanguan City. On the other side is the room of the intermediate training ground, which can be entered directly by swiping the ID card.

If there is someone inside, the indicator light outside will light up red and the card swiping will be invalid.

At this time, most of the training rooms were empty, so Wang Jin just picked one nearby and entered.

He first walked up a flight of stairs, and then he saw the entire training room. It was about five meters high and more than a hundred square meters. From the outside, you couldn't imagine that it was so big.

In the center, there are several movable alloy Pokémon models that serve as targets, and there are horizontal bars three meters high for flying Pokémon to rest on. There are also many different types of weights in the corners.

There are also some free drinking water and dry food in the refrigerator and cabinets, which trainers can use at will.

"Come out, Chickadee, Gastly!"

After Wang Jin looked around, he took out the Poké Ball and released the Pokémon.

"Chirp!"

The young titmouse was bored in the ball, so it flew to the horizontal bar on the wall and looked around. It was actually still a young Pokémon, and its three stages of evolution had not yet been completed, so it preferred to stay outside.

"Hiss!"

Gastly was a little excited, and staggered towards the alloy Pokémon in the center, but was bounced back after hitting it.

The hardness of these alloy models is based on that of gym leader-level Pokémon, and they must be able to withstand at least several attacks from king-level Pokémon.

With Gastly's current strength, even if he stands and fights for a whole day, the alloy may not be able to be worn away.

"Chishan Que, Gastly!" Wang Jin called them over. "Chishan Que will first train the flying attribute move, Air Blade. The goal is to be able to condense two air blades at the same time within two seconds to attack."

"Chirp!"

The young titmouse nodded in response, flew into the air and began to perform its moves.

Its current mastery of air blades is very low, and it takes more than three seconds to condense an air blade. Before trying to release two at the same time, it must shorten the condensation time as much as possible.

"Garsis!" As soon as Wang Jin spoke, Gastly floated in front of him quickly, smiling happily.

Gastly thought this was almost like playing a game.

Wang Jin thought for a moment and gave Gastly an almost impossible task:

"Garsis, your goal is to release the Shadow Ball completely, preferably within three seconds."

"Hiss?" Gastly opened his mouth, and the purple gas will-o'-the-wisp shrank inward. Hearing how difficult it was, he was a little reluctant to train.

But Gastly immediately caught a glimpse of Wang Jin's gaze, and then saw the young Chickadee working hard at training, and he also started to try.

Shadow Ball is a high-level ghost-type move that deals considerable damage. But for Gastly, who is currently only at the growth stage, it is a bit too difficult. Not to mention throwing it, just barely condensing the Shadow Ball will consume all of Gastly's current energy.

This is actually a question of hard power, and Gastly cannot do it simply by trying.

But no matter what, training can make Gastly more familiar with moves and energy, increase experience and strength. Failure is failure, how can you become stronger without failure?

After completing the task of placing the two Pokémon, Wang Jin also carried a weight of about 30 kilograms and did push-ups and frog jumps in the training room.

The most dangerous people in the Pokémon world are still humans. Some have special abilities, and many have undergone intensive training and their bodies are comparable to those of high-level Pokémon.

A good blacksmith must have strong tools himself. Wang Jin also wants to kill Onix with one hand, and easily fight 1V1 with fighting-attribute Pokémon with strong moves and super strength.

If you really have no talent, it would be good to at least improve your physical fitness and become stronger than most ordinary people.
