Kashiwagi looked at the black bull covered in mud not far away in astonishment, his mind filled with confusion as to why Kentaro was here.
Then he remembered that there was a special regional form of Kentaro in the Padya region - the Water Lan species.
It floats easily on the water due to its high fat content, and can swim by spraying water from its horns...
Buffalo.
"Moo!"
As if he could hear his thoughts, Padillacontero let out a loud howl.
"Oh, oh, oh, you look really energetic today." The old butler greeted it with a smile. It was obvious that he usually also participated in the care of Pokémon.
Pass through the dense rainforest.
A vast pool connected to the river outside appeared in front of Kashiwagi.
He soon saw Adam and the energetic Lukia at the shore of a pond that seemed to be connected to the inner sea of Liuli City.
"Kashiwagi!"
Lukia, who also saw him, waved happily. Next to her was the Tanabata Bluebird, which was pacing back and forth like a hen, and raised its head to chirp in response.
"Chilu~~"
What an enviable voice.
Kashiwagi has inherited some music appreciation ability from musicians, otherwise he wouldn't have the crazy idea of letting Happiny perform a singing performance.
Pokémon like Tanabata Bluebird are naturally good at singing, and it is difficult for Champney to catch up with them through acquired efforts.
"Good afternoon, teacher...Rukia."
He greeted her, and saw Lucia suddenly glare and then breathe a sigh of relief, followed by another glare and a curl of the corners of his mouth.
The two of them had a teacher-student relationship where they joked with each other, which caused the girl to think that he was calling her and she almost got scared to death. But after she came to her senses, she couldn't help but feel unconvinced.
Kashiwagi calls Adam teacher, so isn't that a generation gap?
Let's talk about our own affairs?
I call you uncle-master, and you call me teacher?
Good boy! You're in luck!
Lukia made faces at Kashiwagi where no one else could see. If it wasn't for the inconvenience of playing with the phone in public, the chat interface between the two would have probably been flooded with all kinds of emoticons.
"good afternoon."
Adam nodded, and with a wave of his right hand, he summoned the Milotic from the water.
"Milu~"
Mienshao suddenly crawled ashore, flicked its wet tail fin, and lay on the blue air cushion prepared nearby.
He said softly, "I plan to teach you the massage techniques that are unique to Mienshao this afternoon, and how to maintain the scales, fins, and fur."
The cultivation of a Pokémon obviously should not be limited to fighting. For a coordinated trainer, it is also important to ensure that the Pokémon has a perfect appearance.
Lucia came to help out. She had no announcement to go out today and was bored.
Kashiwagi imitated him and released a different-colored Mienshao, making it lie upright on the blue air cushion in a long, upright position, just like Adam's Mienshao.
"Milo~"
The Mienshao chirped lazily.
Adam glanced at it, half-knelt beside it and waved to Kashiwagi, "Come, come and take a look."
He pointed at the base of the tail and the upper three inches of the tail of the Mien-sou, and said, "The structure of the Mien-sou's tail fin is more flexible than you think, but without proper massage, it is difficult to achieve the two methods of unfolding and rotating it."
Expand and rotate.
It is the change that occurs when Adam's Menegas uses Tidal Swirl and Tornado, and its tail fin transforms into a propeller-like structure.
Kashiwagi has always been curious about how this was done, and now hearing what he said, it seems to have something to do with massage techniques?
Then I saw Adam using three fingers together to rub and knead the two places he had just touched in a rotating motion.
There was a crisp sound.
The Mimic was stunned for a moment, then turned its head in disbelief, watching the tail fin that changed from a fan-shaped shape to a cross, and it flicked twice in amazement.
Kashiwagi was also amazed, "That's amazing!"
I never thought that I could use massage to develop Pokémon's body.
"It looks simple, doesn't it? But you have to know that if there is no human maintenance, this change will easily increase the burden on the tail fin joint of the Minus, and it may cause the tail fin to fall off."
Adam spoke eloquently and emphasized the warning: "Once the tail fin falls off, it is difficult to grow it back. Pokémon like Milotic usually only have four tail fins in their lifetime."
"understood."
He nodded, and then saw the cross-shaped tail fin turn back into its original fan shape.
"It takes time to adapt to the change. Before it can complete the change on its own without massaging the acupuncture points, don't try to rotate it at will, as this will put a strain on the muscles on its tail."
Adam mentioned a few more key points, demonstrated some important hand gestures, and asked Kashiwagi to control the strength himself and try it out.
He deftly pressed the tail of the Mienshao, his heart filled with joy.
That's right, this is what he wanted.
I remember that Xiaogang also taught him how to cultivate Pokémon in this way. It’s not that this valuable knowledge is not available on the Internet, but it is confused with false and unreliable knowledge.
"A little higher up, this area and this one, these two places are the common weak points of the Mienshao body. During the battle, you must ensure that these places are not attacked."
Adam pointed out the reason why the Heterochromatic Miens was tied up and unable to move.
“Two places…”
Kashiwagi blinked. He only knew one place, which was the fattest part of the Mienshao. The purpose of the thickened fat was to protect the fragile internal organs.
"This area is where its nervous system is concentrated. Once it is hit hard, it will easily lose its resistance for a short period of time." Adam explained why the other area is also a weak point.
Steelix's weaknesses are joints, but Mimic's weaknesses are internal organs and nerves...
Long snake Pokémon are so complicated.
In the following time, Adam used his Milotic as a sample to teach Kashiwagi the massage techniques that are unique to this type of Pokémon.
From the top horn to the tail, even the two long whisker-like eyebrows were not spared.
"Eyebrows are important organs for them to sense the direction of water flow underwater. Do you see these three black spots? In fact, they are connected and are generally used to filter turbid water. Be careful to clean them, otherwise there will be a smell."
Adam didn't even spare the three "black spots" on Minas' neck.
He really knew this Pokémon from beginning to end, and even had a special maintenance oil for its tail fin, which impressed Kashiwagi.
What’s interesting is that during this period, the Heterochromatic Mienshao learned a new move:
【Water cannon】
The cause was that when Kashiwa rubbed the water sac in the front part of its abdomen, the strong desire to ejaculate forced it to release all the water mixed attribute energy in the organ at once.
As we all know, water-attribute moves require the water in the Pokémon's body as a medium to be used successfully.
Therefore, just as Electric-type Pokémon have charge sacs and Fire-type Pokémon have fire-storage organs, Water-type Pokémon also have similar structures.
Kashiwagi was naturally happy to be able to learn the powerful moves of this style.
I just hope that he won’t end up like Laplace, the traitor in a certain well-known anchor’s house, whose four consecutive hits with water cannon almost drained his PP.
-
The next two days.
Kashiwagi has been immersed in cultivating Milotic and learning how to use offense instead of defense.
Adam never taught him how to perform, because everyone has different aesthetic tastes. At most, one can describe his feelings about the performance from his own perspective, which does not mean that the judges he faces have the same taste as him.
"There is no fixed formula for acting. It requires enough imagination and creativity, as well as the ability to satisfy the public's aesthetic taste. I really can't teach you much in this regard."
In fact.
This is Adam being too modest.
Although the outside world claims that he has retired as a top coordination trainer, his [Water Art] performances are often seen in Liuli City, and he is deeply loved by ladies and young ladies of all walks of life.
Every show was packed with spectators coming in an endless stream.
In the land of Hoenn, he is undoubtedly one of the most famous coordination trainers.
Some people say that Mikoli’s growth to where he is today is closely related to the hard work of the ladies who admired his master.
Kashiwagi had to admit that the performance he designed for Minas was based on Adam's water art performance, and performing it in front of the latter always felt awkward, like a fake meeting the real one.
Adam didn't feel angry, on the contrary he was very happy, but his happiness was often accompanied by a hint of sadness.
It made him very confused.
What other stories are there in the water art performances? Like a performance designed for a certain person, but that person unfortunately died young.
Teacher Adam is still single, maybe there is some unknown past...
Ok.
Such irresponsible speculation is extremely rude.
Kashiwagi secretly admonished himself.
Adam had no idea that his cheap student had been plotting against him behind his back. He just sighed like a card-drawing shipwreck.
The contact and observation over the past two days were more like the various evaluations that big data had stuffed into him, describing "Kashiwagi" as a must-draw phantom god and human rights card, which persecuted him all the time.
Of course.
As an elegant gentleman, Adam also understood the truth that what is destined to happen will happen, and what is not destined to happen should not be forced, so he did not remain depressed for too long.
Are ordinary students not students?
After adjusting his mindset, Adam taught more seriously. He liked the feeling of passing on knowledge and experience, especially to people he admired.
This kind of spiritual satisfaction became one of the main reasons why he did not try to compete for the League's Elite Four many years ago. In his opinion, if he became one of the Elite Four, it might be difficult to come into contact with so many different kinds of trainers.
After all, the Champions League only serves the conference winners.
then.
