Chapter 420: Learning Psychic
Let me tell you, it might take months or even years. I could not say how much time it would take. It would depend on your capability.
In the meantime, you would continue to train your existing techniques and I would also teach you how to punch with aura.
Now, first, sit in the meditative state."
Axel started to be meditative state and started to meditate. Red put his hand on Axel\'s back and said,
"I am sending out to you my psychic wave. Try to sense and try to notice the differences and similarities between the 2.", said Red.
They did this for the whole day. Axel could feel that it was different from aura but he still could not figure out what was different about it.
"Can\'t you just tell me the difference between the 2?", asked Axel.
"I could but I would not. Axel, understanding the difference between aura and psychic power is the first step to sense it. If you were to apply the shortcut here, you would not have a good foundation.
It would take some time but we would do it again tomorrow. Don\'t worry, this would take time. You should learn to be patient.", said Red.
Axel wanted to become powerful and he knew that it would take some time but he just didn\'t want to look like a loser in front of his Pokemons.
###
Another week passed and Axel had still not been able to tell the exact difference between them. He had now started to make guesses to Red but Red shot that down.
"You can\'t get anywhere if you are making guess. You have to feel for yourself and also try to calm yourself down. Being so energetic during meditation would not help you at all. You need to calm your nerves."

Ding!
Pidgeot\'s agility has ranked up to A
Ding!
Pidgeot is ranking up to elemental rank. Do you want to extend the rank up?
---
A notification came and Axel immediately told the system to extend the rank up.
---
Please specify the rank-up condition.
---
"All of its stats should be S rank, it should learn a new move, and \'Agility\' should be leveled up to 40."
These were some harsh conditions for rank up. However, he wanted Pidgeot to have a good foundation. It was not going to battle at league battles after 5 and a half months.
So, it had plenty of time to train and have a good foundation. It had recently leveled up \'Brave bird\' to level 40 and now Axel felt that it was ready to learn a brand new move.
He looked at its stats:
---
Pokemon\'s name :- Pidgeot (Age- 10 months)
Pokemon Nickname :- Flappy
Pokemon rank: Rare
Ability :- Keen eyes (80%)
Hidden ability :- Big Pecks (65%)
Potential :- Brown (Monstrous)
Health :- 2500/2500
Attack :- B++ Agility :- A
Defense :- B Sp. Atk :- B+
Sp. Def :- C++
Moves: Sand Attack (C) (Lvl 27), Wing attack (E) (Lvl 40), Aerial ace (E) (Lvl 40), Double team (G) (Lvl 34), Steel wing (G) (Lvl 39), Parabolic charge (G) (Lvl 39), Agility (G) (Lvl 38), Roost (G) (Lvl 34), Tailwind (E) (Lvl 43), Work up (G) (Lvl 35), Whirl wind (G) (Lvl 39), Air slash (G) (Lvl 39), Feint Attack (G) (Lvl 38), Brave bird (E) (Lvl 41), Foresight (G) (Lvl 32), Secret power (G) (Lvl 34)
Core: Flying (mastered)
Hidden power: Electric (6%)

Axel had planned it to level up \'Roost\' and \'Brave bird\' to level 40. However, Axel quickly realized that \'Roost\' would take a lot of body stats to level up. Cause the level-up moves of \'Roost\' had to heal it even more and decrease the stress level. That could only be done with good body stats.
Charizard also leveled up to \'Roost\' way later in ranks. So, Axel believed that Pidgeot had to be at the peak of elemental rank if it wanted to level up \'Roost\'.
Axel then focused on \'Agility\'. It was also a stat-improving move and Axel believed that it could be leveled up. He was now looking at moves like \'Whir wind\' and \'Air slash\' to level up to.
It was now time to teach Pidgeot the new move. The new move was obviously related to flying.
The wind was created by increasing and decreasing the atmospheric pressure. The same concept was used in all of the flying-type moves. Axel had to first teach the meaning of atmospheric pressure to Pidgeot and how it subconsciously increased and decreased it.
It was very hard to teach Pidgeot this concept when he didn\'t have full knowledge about it. He was a man of finance in his past life and the science of atmospheric pressure was not fully explored in this world.
It took some time but Pidgeot finally understood the gist of it.
"By decreasing and increasing atmospheric pressure, you could do a lot of things. I have been thinking about a concept called \'Air aura\' where you would create an aura of flying-type energy around you.
This would be the easy part. The hard part would be to make it invisible. Cause the air is invisible. It would be very hard for you to accomplish it as when a Pokemon creates an aura, the force would be too high and it could seen with the naked eye.
Can you do it?"
CRIIII
Criiiiii Criiii
Pidgeot said that it would take the challenge. Axel patted its head saying that it was very brave.
This was would hard thing to do for a rare rank. Creating new moves was obviously much harder than learning the existing ones. Cause learning existing ones were inscribed in their DNA. Their parents and ancestors had already learned and trained on it so it would be easier for them to learn too.
However, such a thing was not the case for new moves except for Axel and his Pokemons due to the system. Yet, there were some new moves that were very hard for even his Pokemons to learn if they were not qualified for it.
For example \'Ancient power\' or \'Resolve\'. These new moves were very hard to learn. They did learn it but it took them so much time to do it.
Axel didn\'t have high expectations from Pidgeot on this new move and if he saw no progress then he would think of another move for it.
###
Half a month passed.
None of his Pokemons had ranked up to king rank. Not even Charizard. It was very hard for Charizard to create its pre-domain move. If the domain only consisted of fire-type energy, Charizard would have done it a long time ago but it also consisted of dragon-type energy and that was making it harder.
It had upgraded its agility stat to SS rank. Now all of its stats were in SS rank which was monumental. A Pokemon in a pseudo-king rank with SS rank on all of its stats was a very strong Pokemon. Not many Pokemons could do it. Even Charizard may not have done it if it was not for \'Ancient power\'.
Shedinja had also not reached King\'s rank. It did talk to Axel with the help of Gengar but it refused to say what it was learning. It said that it would be a surprise.
Axel also honoring its request, didn\'t look at its stats but he did look at its body stats and it had been rising.
Its special attack did reach SS rank some time ago and a rank-up condition came up. Due to the new special quest, Axel could now take action from his home. He extended the rank up and added the condition for its \'agility\', \'special defense\', and \'attack\' also to be at SS rank.
That was a harsh condition for rank up cause Axel knew that when a stat reaches S rank, it becomes very hard to reach SS rank.
Pidgeot was able to create the \'Air aura\' some time ago but it was still not able to make it invisible.
The system did say that it was a new move and it should be named. Axel named it \'Air aura\' but he was not satisfied.
Axel then realized that maybe the move \'Air aura\' had to be mastered to level 40 to reach that effect.
Pidgeot stats were rising rapidly and it would rank up soon. Axel was expectant about it.
###
Absol and Tauros had multiple changes during this time. Since they reached elemental rank, Axel had been telling it them to fight with wild Pokemon and with Red Pokemons.
Most of their moves had also crossed the threshold and they had also trained hard on their new move.
Since the beginning, Axel had been training them on how to use the power of the core. They were doing a good job.
Axel felt that both of them would rank up by the time the league battle started.
###
He then looked at Venusaur.
The rank-up condition of Venusaur had arrived today. It was ranking up faster than others.
---
Ding!
Venusaur is ranking up. Do you want to extend the rank up?
---
"Yes."
Please specify the rank-up condition.
"All of its stats should be S rank. It should also level up \'Field control\' to level 50, \'Vine whip\' to level 45, \'Wood Thorns\' to level 40, and \'Restore\' to level 40."
Those were a lot of conditions but Axel knew that they would be easily accomplished by Venusaur.
He looked at Venusaur\'s stats:
---
Pokemon\'s name: Venusaur (Age- 10 months)
Pokemon Nickname: None
Pokemon Rank: Elemental
Ability: Overgrow (93%)
Hidden ability: Chlorophyll (82%)
Potential: Brown
Health: 5000/5000 Attack: A+
Agility: A Defense: A++
Sp. Atk: S Sp. Def: A+
Moves :- Sludge (G) (Lvl 39), Tackle (C) (Lvl 20) (max), Rajor leaf (E) (Lvl 40), Vine whip (E) (Lvl 43), Substitute (G) (Lvl 39), Sunny day (E) (Lvl 55), Synthesis (E) (Lvl 42), Leech Seed (G) (Lvl 39), Energy Ball (E) (Lvl 40), Grassy Terrain (G) (Lvl 39), Water Sport (G) (Lvl 38), Rain dance (G) (Lvl 32), Solar beam (E) (Lvl 50), Sludge bomb (G) (Lvl 39), Frenzy Plant (G) (Lvl 40), Grass Pledge (G) (Lvl 40), Aromatherapy (G) (Lvl 37), Poison powder (E) (Lvl 43), Sleeping powder (E) (Lvl 45), Leech whip (E) (Lvl 45), Growth (C) (Lvl 29), Field Control (E) (Lvl 45), Restore (G) (Lvl 34), Wood thorns (G) (Lvl 30)

Items: The locket.
---
Its body stats had rapidly risen. It had also leveled up \'Field control\' to level 45, \'Frenzy Plant\' to level 40, \'Poison powder\' to level 43, and \'Grass Pledge\' to level 40.
Axel clicked on it to see the description again:
---
Sleeping powder (Level 40): The effect of the attack had increased.
(Level 45): Has an area effect.
Frenzy Plant: Don\'t need to recharge for the next turn. However, the power is reduced.
Grass Pledge : These grasses could come out of anywhere within the 5-meter radius
Field control: (Level 40): mini version of Hashirama senju.
(Level 45): Consumes less stamina
Poison powder: Has more penetrating power.
---
Axel believed that if \'Field control\' was to reach higher stages, basic moves like \'Frenzy Plant\', \'Grass pledge\' should also level up. Axel also decided to add \'Vine whip\' on \'Field control\'. That was why he wanted Venusaur to level it up to level 45.
Venusaur now had many supporting moves and he wanted to focus on attacking moves now. It did have some devastating moves like \'Solar beam\' but Axel wanted it to have some variety. So, he wanted to train its \'Field control\' to level to level 50 and \'Wood thorns\' to level 40.
###
Another month had passed and....
"Red, I believe that I can now tell the reason for the difference and similarity.", said Axel.
"Go on...."
"I could feel that aura and psychic energy at their base level are basically the same. Cause psychic energy is another version of it. However, there are some differences.
It is like \'Aura\' is a general concept and psychic energy is a specific concept. Psychic energy deals with increasing the mind\'s power. It deals with communicating with the minds, teleporting, and manipulating other minds. Aura is a general concept. Aura does consist of those things but aura is so much more than that."
"How did you determine the difference?"
"It took me some time but I got the gist of it. First I thought that there were some differences in the energy as a whole. The color of the energy was different. Aura had blue and whitish color while psychic had purple color. But that was it.
There were so many similarities in their energy that it was hard to find the difference. I know that they were different but I could not find the reason. After meditating for a long time, I finally figured it out."
"Oh, come on. Tell me the reason cause I don\'t even about it?", asked Red.
"OK, I will tell you the answer. You don\'t have to be so sarcastic. It was their frequency. The way those energies vibrated. That was the major difference."
"Good, job Axel. You have taken the first step to unlocking psychic ability. I must tell you, this is the longest and the hardest part of unlocking your psychic. I thought that it would take you some more months but you always exceed my expectation.
Now, we move on to the second part which is to store the psychic energy inside your body."
Axel may have taken more months or even years if he didn\'t have the memories of his previous world. This unique thing about vibrations was learned by him in his previous world. His science teacher had once said that everything in this universe had their own vibrations. That was where he got the idea.
"Now, storing psychic energy is not very easy. Aura is abundant in our environment so, it is easy to store aura inside your body.
When you practice your aura techniques, your aura capacity also increases. But such won\'t be the case for psychic energy."
"So, how do I store the psychic energy in my body."
"Oh, there is a way but it is not going to be easy."
"Has anything been easy till now?"
"Hahahaha, you are right. You see, just like the double cores in a Pokemon, the aura and psychic powers should also synchronize to not have any bad effects."
"But Pokemons could not have 2 cores."
"You are right but your Nidoking does."
"What are you trying to tell Red? I am not getting your point."
"You said that Nidoking was able to perfectly synchronize the 2 cores cause it had a good foundation on poison cores and it had a good foundation on its body stats.
Similarly, a human could have aura and psychic by doing the same thing."
