Pokémon Awakening Master

The next day was sunny and cloudless.

"What an embarrassing weather forecast." Lin Tao complained.

But this kind of weather is perfect for going to the Pokémon Center to pick up starter Pokémon.

Pokémon Centers are generally located near the central areas of cities.Take Qin City, a small coastal city where Lin Tao's family lives, as an example. The Pokémon Center and the local Trainers Association are both located next to the business district in the city center.

Although today is Monday, because the high school entrance examination has just ended, many junior high school graduates accompanied by their parents came to the Pokémon Center to receive starter Pokémon, so it seemed that there were quite a lot of people nearby.

"Let me choose with you. Have you roughly thought about the attributes of the initial Pokémon?" Lin Zhiwei turned to look at his son and asked.

"Yes, I want to choose the fighting type."

"Um……"

Lin Zhiwei nodded silently. Sure enough, the Lin family was not wealthy. His son planned to choose the same attributes as himself... Forget it, his son had been very independent since he was a child. He would just give him a reference later.

The initial Pokémon is extremely important to every trainer. Since it is the first one, they often put the greatest emotion and energy into cultivating it. Even if the progress in strength is slow in the future, most trainers will never leave it. And the fact is On the other hand, if the initial Pokémon has slightly better qualifications, it will probably become the trainer's main or even ace Pokémon.

So lying in bed last night, Lin Tao was still thinking about which Pokémon to choose.Taking into account the local characteristics, since it is a coastal city, Qin City has the most water-type Pokémon, and the number of fighting-type Pokémon will definitely be smaller, which also limits its choices.

"Taozi? Are you here too? Hey, there's also Uncle Lin, hello uncle!"

With such a loud voice, Lin Tao guessed who it was without even turning around.

"Makino, Uncle Wang."

Wang Muye, Lin Tao's best friend since childhood, was carefree and never spoke in a low voice.The serious-looking middle-aged man next to him knocked his son on the head angrily, "Keep your voice down, it's in a public place!"

"Oh, Dad, I was wrong..." Wang Muye muttered as he rubbed his head, but turned around and asked Lin Tao excitedly, "By the way, Taozi, have you decided what Pokémon to choose?"

"not yet."

"What about attributes?"

"Fighting type."

"Oh oh oh, then what do you think I'm going to choose?"

Lin Tao raised his head and looked at Wang Muye's father, without even thinking, "Electric type, right?"

"Hey, eh, how did you know?!"

"..."

Lin Tao was too lazy to explain. Wang Muye's family background was similar to his own. His father was also an ordinary worker and worked in a power plant. He was very familiar with Uncle Wang's three-in-one magnet monster. He had to trouble others every time the electrical appliances at home broke down.Judging from Wang Muye's reaction, he was indeed planning to choose the electric Pokémon that his father was good at.

The two pairs of father and son walked into the Pokémon Center while chatting.

Generally speaking, each prefecture-level city will have its own Trainers Association and Pokémon Center, which is equivalent to the official organization of trainers.Provincial capital cities also have Pokémon gyms that represent the entire province. Trainers can obtain badges of honor by defeating gym trainers. The requirement to participate in the country's top Pokémon battle league is to have at least three badges.

Qin City is just an ordinary third-tier small city and does not have its own gym, but the Pokémon Center is also very impressive.The lobby on the first floor is very spacious. There is a huge electronic screen above the front desk directly in front. It usually plays the game status of some events. When there is no game, it will scroll some announcements and notifications.At the bottom of the screen is a long front desk with many windows, including trainer level registration, Pokémon medical services, Pokémon teleportation services, daily business processing, etc.

Lin Tao looked up at the electronic screen. The 2020 junior high school graduates should receive their initial Pokémon business at window 12.

Fortunately, a few people came not too late, and there were not too many people in line. After showing their initial Pokémon collection vouchers, they were led to the breeding center on the third floor by the staff.

The entire third floor was used to cultivate newborn Pokémon. Pokémon eggs were placed in eighteen areas according to their attributes. Lin Tao took a quick look and found that the area occupied by water Pokémon was the largest in Qin City. , there are about more than half, and there are relatively few other attributes, especially rare varieties such as dragon attributes, fairy attributes, and super attributes. There is not even a row filled with them.

"Next, please use your voucher to swipe your card to enter the different attribute areas to select. After selecting, please go to the Pokémon Egg Management Center on the easternmost side of this floor to register." The staff said while reaching out to indicate that it was not far away. There is a circular front desk with many people waiting in line.

"Okay, we get it, thanks!"

"It's okay. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask Rotom, the illustrated guide for each area. Goodbye!"

"Ok!"

"Taozi, shall I go to the electrical department with my dad?" Wang Muye said anxiously.

"Okay, see you at the exit."

After bidding farewell to Wang Muye and his son, Lin Tao and his father also walked towards the fighting area.

"Sure enough, there are not many in quantity and variety."

"Yes, but the qualifications of the Pokémon eggs are all the same, Lotto!"

Lin Tao was muttering, and an electronic device similar to a tablet flew out next to him. It was red in color and had a smiling face on the screen. "There are now ten categories in the fighting area and 470 eight Pokémon eggs. Please choose at will." Please!"

"Wow, is this the illustrated Rotom?" Lin Tao was a little surprised when he saw it for the first time.

Rotom is originally an Electric and Ghost-type Pokémon with the talent to possess various simple household appliances.However, the achievement of allowing Rotom to enter a computer terminal to equip it with illustrated encyclopedia and scientific research capabilities, and become an important assistant in the service industry and scientific research institutes, was only successfully developed in recent years.

However, he was surprised, and Lin Tao did not forget about serious matters. "Dad, come and help me choose."

"This row is..."

"The monkey monster, the pig-monkey Pokémon, often gets angry immediately over little things. Lotto can live for a long time because it doesn't accumulate stress."

"..."

Lin Tao looked back at the illustrated book Rotom - it was truly an illustrated encyclopedia. "What about this row?"

"Arm strength, a strange-strength Pokémon with Lottos all over its body. Although it is only the size of a child, it can throw away 100 adult Lotos."

"100?" Lin Tao swallowed. Wouldn't his father's power be stronger?

……

"The fearless boy fights Pokémon. In order to hone his fighting skills, he will fight against various opponents, Lotto. He is very competitive with Lotto."

Rotom on the phone gave a general introduction. Except for some rare ones, most of the fighting-type Pokémon were basically available. Lin Tao suddenly had trouble choosing and could only look back at his father, "Dad, what do you think? ?"

Lin Zhiwei thought for a moment and said: "The monkey monster has a hot temper and is not suitable for a novice trainer like you..."

"Yes, I really don't have much confidence in cultivating a monkey monster now," Lin Tao nodded, "Actually, I'm struggling with these ones, the porter, the fearless boy, and the naughty panda. Which one is better?"

"Well... the porter has two stages of evolution, and the potential should be very good, but the cost of cultivation will be higher. Although the fearless boy only has one stage of evolution, it has three different directions, with more choices, but the cultivation method requires more requirements. Harsh; for the naughty panda, the attributes of the evolved form have been increased with evil elements. Compared with the pure fighting elements of the previous ones, the attributes are better, but the nature is naughty and active, so it will probably take more energy..." Lin Zhiwei did not Instead of making the decision for his son, he briefly stated his views on these types of Pokémon.

Lin Tao was thoughtful after listening to his father's analysis.

The difference between one-stage evolution and two-stage evolution is only theoretical. In reality, it has a lot to do with the Pokémon's qualifications and training methods. Not all transporters can eventually successfully evolve into construction masters.For example, my father's powerful power can theoretically evolve into a strange power in the second stage. However, due to lack of qualifications or average training level, it can only be stuck at the powerful power stage, and it is very likely that it will never evolve again.

In addition to evolved forms, Pokémon’s attributes are also important.Compared with single-attribute Pokémon, dual-attribute Pokémon should have more options in battle.

And the most important thing is that Father Lin didn't take it into consideration just now - appearance, whether it is strong or not can depend on nurture and training, but this face is innate.

Combined with Lin Tao's own aesthetics...

It’s up to you, Naughty Panda!
