Chapter 380: Ability Training
She was still in Pewter City, and she had already booked the flight for her next job. The team was going to explore another place after 2 weeks, and she wanted to reach the meeting point today. She didn\'t want to go to meet Axel again.
"I need to ask some questions to Butterfree."
"What questions?"
"It is about its ability. I feel that its ability is more powerful than the normal ability of a Butterfree."
"Ok, I have not observed such a thing, but why can\'t you ask it over the phone? Why do I have to come there?"
"I want it to teach that to my Pokemons. Can you please come here? It would just take a day or two," said Axel.
"Axel, our deal was not to teach your Pokemons about the ability. It was only to teach your Pokemon about the new moves. I am also busy right now, so I cannot come."
"Hey, I am just asking for a favor, and remember that you caught that Butterfree due to me. I could have taken it by myself."
###
After guilt-tripping and blackmailing Amanda, Axel was finally able to convince her to come here. Amanda was there within 2 hours. She also wanted to know what this additional function in the ability really was. Frankly, she had not trained and fought with Butterfree till now. They had just completed a mission, and their friends had died. She was mourning and taking a little break.
Since Axel came into her life, her life had been very busy, training his Pokemon in new moves and now this ability. It was not wrong to say that she was interested in it. If her Butterfree could do more with its ability, then she would benefit from it. That was why she came here within 2 hours.
After reaching, they had to first find out what was the function that made Butterfree\'s ability go from 100% to mastered. Charizard could remain sane while using \'Blaze\', so Butterfree also must have something. Axel had told Amanda that he had a strong hunch about it. He sounded so sure that Amanda was convinced, partly.
After asking about it for some time, they found out the additional function of its ability. Butterfree was a Pokemon that had a 180-degree view from its eyes. When using \'Compound eyes\', it could see more properly, hence its accuracy is boosted. Now, since its ability is fully mastered, it could choose to concentrate on a single direction.
From a 180-degree wide view to a single narrow direction. That had further boosted its accuracy if it was to concentrate on a single point. This had also boosted its seeing power. Normally it could only see up to 10 meters, but now it could see up to 15 meters.
Amanda was shocked!!!
She had no idea that her Butterfree could do something like this. Butterfree also didn\'t know that a normal Butterfree could not do such a thing. Amanda repeatedly thanked Axel by bowing her head until the situation became awkward.
"So, Butterfree, how did you learn it?" asked Axel.
Butterfree started to talk, and Alakazam translated it. According to Butterfree, it felt that having a 180-degree view was annoying and it could not concentrate on a single enemy. So, it started to train its eyes to just see in a single direction. After training for some time, it was able to do it.
This cleared some of the things for Axel. First of all, the condition to master ability was not set in stone. They just have to be better than before. Second, they have to be more convenient than before. Charizard learning to control its anger and Butterfree controlling its line of vision. Both did the same thing.
After learning about it, Axel gathered all of his Pokemons. It was time to share his findings with them.
"When you train your ability, you might find something that it still lacks. I can\'t tell you what it really is. You are the one using the ability, so you would be much more familiar with it.
Think about the thing that your ability lacks. Remember, they don\'t have to be too drastic. Just a minor inconvenience. You have 1 day to think about it. Tell me tomorrow, and I will help you with it."
After 2 days, his Pokemons had told him the thing that their ability lacked, and they had been trying to improve it. Axel knew that it would take some time, and he was not in a hurry. He was confident that they would need a lot of time to rank up to King rank.
Today, 2 notifications came from the system. The first one was:
---
Ding!
Venusaur is ranking up. Do you want to extend the rank up?
---
"Yes, please extend the rank up," said Axel.
Please specify the rank-up condition.
"It should learn a new move, and all of its stats should be S rank."
It still had not learned its new move. The new move was difficult to learn for it. It was making progress. The move was just like \'Stockpile\' of \'Muk\'. Sadly, Venusaur could not learn \'Stockpile\', otherwise, it would have been much easier for it.
Regarding the stats, it had recently ranked up, so most of its stats were not in S rank. Axel\'s talent did let it upgrade fast, but it still needed some time. He wanted Venusaur to have a strong foundation.
Another notification, which surprised Axel was:
---
Ding!
Steelix\'s defense has ranked up to SS.
Ding!
Steelix is ranking up. Do you want to extend the rank up?
---
Steelix started to feel an unknown power covering its whole body. It already knew what power it was. It closed its eyes and started to feel that power. However, the power was suddenly cut off. It started to look around and saw that Axel was smiling.
"Yes, extend the rank up."
---
Ding!
Please specify the rank-up condition.
---
"Its attack, defense, and special defense should be SS rank, it should learn a new move, and master its ability."
The gap in his talent for letting his Pokemon learn new moves and upgrading their stats was starting to show. Steelix had already learned a new move \'Sand hardening\' and leveled up \'Sandstorm\' and \'Sand trap\' to level 40. However, it still had to improve its stats.
Axel realized that, after reaching pseudo-king rank, the stats could be upgraded to SS rank. Steelix was not a fast Pokemon, and it didn\'t have good special attack moves. So, upgrading agility and special attack to SS rank would be a waste of time.
Axel was happy with the development. Even though it would take some time for it to rank up to king rank, it would be much faster than other Pokemon in his team.
Steelix was not happy about it. It had been dreaming of ranking up to king rank for a long time. The rank-up and evolution process had not been interrupted before, and now it had. It didn\'t know how it happened, but seeing Axel\'s smile, it knew that Axel was responsible for it. It had also seen Gyarados and Venusaur going through the same thing.
ROARRRRRR....
It roared in anger towards Axel. Even though Axel was its trainer, it had not been a long time since it was added to the team. So, it didn\'t have the same sense of loyalty that Nidorino and Shedinja had.
It crawled towards Axel heavily and was roaring in anger.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa... Don\'t get angry, big guy. Let me tell you why I did it. At least give me a chance to explain."
Both of his hands were high in the air. Axel was trying to calm it down. He had promised it that it would rank up to king rank in a short time with his training, and now he had stopped it. Steelix didn\'t know the reason for it. Axel had not explained it.
"Listen, I have the power to stop your rank-up and evolution process. I don\'t do it to stop your growth but to improve your foundation. You should know that not many Pokemons could reach elemental rank and pseudo-king rank. This is because they don\'t have a good foundation.
You may rank up to king rank right now, but it would be harder for you to rank up further without a good foundation. Your stats need to be improved. Right now, you should concentrate on improving your attack and special defense. After you have done good improvements on it, you would rank up naturally. Don\'t worry about it."
After calmly talking to it for some time, Steelix grudgingly nodded its head in approval.
