Chapter 19: Training completed, tracking sleep powder! (Compound Eyes wins big!)
During the days on Fighting Island, Heimer and his friends not only made a new friend, Gyarados, but the Bimbisara also successfully evolved into a Forest Lizard, which was a double happiness.
But at this moment, they were on their way to the Pokémon Center because of the previous battle, Lizard and Gyarados needed treatment at the Pokémon Center. Well, to be more precise, Heimer also needed treatment.
After Heimer left the Forest Lizard and Gyarados at the Pokémon Center for treatment, he went to the hospital on Fighting Island with Butterfree and Poison Rose.
Because of the fight that night, Heimer's arm suffered a severe blow, resulting in a fracture.
After the battle, Heimer just bandaged his arm casually and hurried to the Pokémon Center. However, he did not expect that because of Heimer's casual treatment, the injury on his arm seemed to have become worse.
Because he needs to be hospitalized for observation, Heimer is currently lying on a hospital bed.
Looking at the blue sky outside the window, Heimer felt a little sad.
(It’s been a long time since I was hospitalized. When I was a kid, I always hoped to be hospitalized because only in this way could I have my own personal space for a short period of time.)
Just then, Batgirl flew to Heimer's belly and rubbed his cheek against his.
(Come to think of it, after the Rock Gym Tournament, I haven’t done any combat training for Butterfree yet.)
Chi Haimo: "Bardadie, please help me get the illustrated guide."
After hearing what Heimer said, Butterfree flapped its white wings, rummaged through Heimer's bag, and then flew to Heimer with the illustrated book in its pink and green hands.
Heimer picked up the illustration with his left hand and began to scan Bardalio. After a while, Bardalio's information appeared on the illustration.
Barbuteo, a butterfly Pokémon, is the evolved form of Metapod. Its wings are protected by scales that can bounce off water droplets, allowing it to fly in the air even on rainy days.
(The skills that can be used are impact and wind, as well as telekinesis and sleep powder.)
Chi Haimo: "Telekinesis, sleep powder, and wind, the characteristic is compound eyes."
Seeing the skills and characteristics displayed in the illustrations, Heimer seemed to have thought of something and suddenly sat up from the bed.
Chi Haimo: "Bardalie, Poison Rose, let's go, let's practice now."
Butterfly: “Beep~”
Under Heimer's persistent request, the doctor had no choice but to check Heimer's arm several times. After confirming that there was no problem, he agreed to Heimer's request to be discharged from the hospital.
After leaving the hospital, Heimer, Butterfree and Violetta went to the Pokémon Center's battle field for training.
Chi Haimo: "Let's practice with the poison rose's paralysis powder first. Poison rose, paralysis powder!"
After Poison Rose received the instructions, Black Rose waved her hand and orange powder instantly spread all over the place.
Chi Haimo: "Bardalie, use your telekinesis to grab the powder."
Batdie nodded slightly, then instantly gathered her mental strength, and her eyes emitted a faint blue light.
Heimer looked at Butterfree and the paralyzing powder on the field. Only after all the paralyzing powder on the field had dissipated did Heimer realize that with Butterfree's current proficiency in the moves, he could only use telekinesis to grab a small ball of powder.
Chi Haimo: "It seems that once the powder is dispersed, the control of telekinesis will be lost."
(If it is a psychic Pokémon, the time for practicing telekinesis may be greatly reduced, but I believe that Butterfree is not inferior to those psychic Pokémon. Because he also has the characteristics of compound eyes, which makes it easy for special moves to hit, enough to allow his telekinesis to instantly capture any target. With these conditions, all that is left is more practice.)
After much consideration, Heimer decided on a training plan for Butterfree.
Chi Haimo: "Ba Dadie, wait for me for a moment, Poison Rose, come and help."
After a while, Heimer and Poison Rose came to Butterfree with a large basket of glass marbles.
Chi Haimo: "Bardalie, listen carefully. Next, I will train you on your telekinesis skills. The training includes three parts. The first part is to instantly capture the target."
After Heimer finished speaking, he grabbed a handful of marbles with his left hand.
Chi Haimo: "After the marbles are scattered, you have to use your telekinesis to instantly catch all the red marbles. If a red marble falls to the ground, you have to start over. Are you ready?"
Batgirl nodded, then stared at Heimer's left hand seriously.
Chi Haimo: "Then, go ahead!"
With Heimer's command, a handful of different marbles were scattered into the sky.
Butterfree concentrated his mental strength in an instant. Due to the characteristics of his compound eyes, he locked onto the target very quickly and used his telekinesis to grab all the red marbles, not missing a single one.
Chi Haimo: "Very good, then come again!"
After Heimer finished speaking, he immediately increased the amount and threw more marbles into the sky. They kept repeating this training.
This training lasted for about an hour, and Butterfree made great progress in her ability to capture and control the moment.
Chi Haimo: "Very good, Butterfree, but I found that the upper limit of your telekinesis control seems to be about five to seven targets."
Butterfly: “Beep~”
Batdie nodded slightly, then used her telekinesis to lift five marbles. When it came to the sixth and seventh marbles, her telekinesis seemed to become very strenuous.
Chi Haimo: "Then let's move on to the second and third parts of the training. The second part is to train the number of targets to be controlled. I found that when you control the paralysis powder, once the paralysis powder spreads, you will lose control of your telekinesis. The reason for this problem is that there is an upper limit to the targets you can control with your telekinesis. So, when the paralysis powder is a ball, there is no problem, but when the powder spreads, the target becomes multiple, and your telekinesis instantly fails."
As Heimer spoke, he walked to the public faucet, connected the water pipe, and asked Poison Rose to bring a large basin.
After hearing what Heimer said, Poison Rose immediately and quickly took a large basin.
Chi Haimo: "Thank you, Poison Rose."
After Hemmer pointed the water pipe at Butterfree, he continued to speak to her.
Chi Haimo: "Oh, right, the third part is to increase the strength of your telekinesis. Once the strength of your telekinesis is increased, you should be able to lift heavier targets. Then, the next method to train the second and third parts at once is, first, use your telekinesis to catch the water spraying from the water pipe."
After saying that, Heimer turned on the faucet and sprayed water at Butterfree. Butterfree instantly concentrated his mental power, controlled all the water flow, and gathered it into a big water ball in the air.
Chi Haimo: "Very good. Next, Bardie, divide the water ball into small drops."
Seeing this, Butterfree immediately followed Hammer's instructions and began to control it with telekinesis.
Afterwards, when Bardie separated the sixth drop of water, she was visibly sweating a lot.
Chi Haimo: "Hold on, Butterfree, you can do it."
Batdie persisted until the number of targets under its control actually increased to seven, and then it continued to divide the water drops.
Later, during Battisti's training, Heimer occasionally used a water pipe to increase the weight of the water ball. However, Battisti worked very hard and persevered.
Time passed quickly, and it was night in a blink of an eye.
Chi Haimo: "Okay, you can stop now, Butterfree. Today's training ends here. We will continue tomorrow."
After hearing this, Butterfree immediately placed the water ball controlled by her telekinesis into the large basin that Poison Rose had carried earlier.
Afterwards, Heimer and the others put the water in the large basin into a nearby pool and returned to the room to prepare for bed.
While Helmer was washing up, Butterfly had already fallen on the bed, like a corpse, motionless.
After seeing this scene, Heimer said with a smile.
Chi Haimo: "It seems that he is really exhausted today. Let's do some other training tomorrow."
On the second day, Butterfree's training was tug-of-war with Poison Rose.
Chi Haimo: "Then first of all, poison rose and paralysis powder!"
Poison Rose turned her body and large pieces of orange powder floated in the air.
Chi Haimo: "Ba Dadie, telekinesis!"
After hearing what Heimer said, Butterfree very skillfully used her telekinesis to immediately grab all the powder.
Chi Haimo: "Great, Butterfree, next, disperse."
Even after the powder was dispersed by Butterfree's telekinesis, it still did not lose control!
Chi Haimo: "It seems that yesterday's training was very effective. Poison Rose, next, I want you to use Super Absorption to compete with Butterfree for the paralysis powder."
After hearing this, Poison Rose's eyes immediately became fierce. After aiming at the paralysis powder, Rose released a very powerful super absorption. The powerful green wave instantly made the paralysis powder lose control of its telekinesis.
(It seems that when Batdayue controls multiple targets, the power of telekinesis will be greatly weakened.)
Chi Haimo: "Then, let's do it again, poison rose, paralysis powder, and Butterfree's telekinesis."
Seeing this, Poison Rose and Butterfree once again used their special skills as they did just now, and the situation returned to the same state as before.
Chi Haimo: "Poison Rose, reduce the power this time, super absorption at one-fifth of the power."
Seeing this, Poison Rose very gently used Super Absorption. After the winding green energy waves wrapped around the paralyzing powder, her telekinesis did not lose control.
Chi Haimo: "Then increase the intensity!"
Hearing this, Poison Rose immediately became ferocious again and instantly increased the intensity of her super absorption.
During this period, Heimer had been observing Butterfree's condition. Only when he was sweating profusely did he stop Poison Rose from increasing its strength.
After repeating this process over and over again, Butterfree's telekinesis became even more powerful.
This kind of training also lasted almost a whole day.
By the evening, Heimer decided to let Butterfree experiment with the combination of skills he had previously thought of.
(After two days of training, Butterfree should be able to do it.)
Chi Haimo: "Bardalie, sleeping powder!"
After hearing Helmer's instructions, Butterfree immediately flapped its wings, and green powder instantly spread throughout the entire battlefield.
Chi Haimo: "Next, use telekinesis to grab the sleeping powder."
The powder floating in the air seemed to have life, emitting blue light. Following Butterfree's heart, it danced freely in the air under the control of telekinesis.
Chi Haimo: "Great, Butterfree, tracking the sleep powder, accomplished!"
When Hemmer saw the success of the combination of moves, he happily hugged Butterfree and started spinning in circles. In Hemmer's embrace, Butterfree happily broke free from the control of telekinesis.
But who knew that the sleeping powder got out of control and spilled on Bardalie and Highmore, causing them to fall to the ground and fall asleep instantly.
Poison Rose sighed and moved the two of them back to the room.
On the third day, Heimer decided not to train today because the training in the past two days was too tiring.
So, today they decided to go to the Pokémon Center to pick up Gyarados and Lizard.
After getting the Poké Balls, Heimer came to the open space on the beach, took a deep breath, and threw the two Poké Balls onto the beach.
In a flash of white light, the Forest Lizard and Gyarados appeared on the beach.
Forest Lizard: "Cha!"
The forest lizard was very excited when he saw Heimer. He rushed up and hugged him. It seemed that he had been worried about Heimer's injury these two days.
Chi Haimo: "Don't worry, everything is fine."
At this moment, Heimer looked at the huge Gyarados in front of him and couldn't help but feel nervous.
(Although I captured Gyarados that night, I actually didn’t want to travel with Gyarados. Although I don’t hate him either. I should ask Gyarados what he thinks first. I should respect the Pokémon’s ideas.)
After thinking it over again and again, Heimer released Gyarados with a Poké Ball.
Forest Lizard: "Cha?"
Gyarados: "Roar?"
Chi Haimo: "I'm sorry, Forest Lizard, I know you like Gyarados very much, but if we want to travel together, I still want to hear Gyarados's idea. Gyarados, are you willing to travel with me? If you don't want to, you can go back to the sea now. I won't force you."
Gyarados looked down at the tiny human in front of him, seemingly filled with confusion.
He turned his head to look at the sea behind him, then looked at Heimer in front of him. After a moment of silence, he slowly lowered his head and gently touched Heimer's cheek with his nose.
Chi Haimo: "You, want to travel with me?"
Gyarados nodded and breathed a sigh of joy at Hammer.
(Ah, well, it stinks, but I don’t know why, but I’m so happy to have Gyarados’s approval.)
Chi Haimo: "Then go ahead, Poké Ball!"
The moment the Poké Ball touched Gyarados, it instantly turned into a red light. After Gyarados entered the Poké Ball, the Poké Ball shook three times and then stopped.
Heimer looked at the Poké Ball in his hand, his heart filled with joy.
(Well, from now on, please give me your guidance, Gyarados.)
Chi Haimo: "Well, let's take a good look around Fighting Island today. We've been so tired these past few days."
The forest lizard jumped up happily and pointed at his stomach, as if telling Heimer that he was going to eat a lot of delicious food. Poison Rose and Butterfree also nodded happily.
Chi Haimo: "Then, let's go!"
Facing the sound of the waves, Heimer's inner world seems to become richer and stronger with the increase of his companions. . . . .
