Chapter 491: Body Stats
Chapter 491: Body Stats
That was why he recently taught \'Tackle\' to Togepi. Togepi specialized in special attack but it needed to have good body stats before that. That was the foundation for every Pokemon. So, he taught it \'Tackle\' not cause he wanted it to use this move in the battle but it wanted it to train its body. He could have taught it moves like \'Head butt\' but that would only focus on one part of the body. \'Tackle\' focused on most parts of the body.

"Now, all of you. Before starting your journey to become a powerful Pokemon, all of you need to have a good foundation and the first step to a good foundation is to have good physical stats. These include defense, attack, and agility.
So, I want all of you to concentrate on this training ground. These training grounds would focus on your body stats. You will train your body stats in these training grounds for a day and then focus on your moves and battle tactics another day and so on.
All of you also might be very interested in battle. After you finish this training of yours, all of you will have your first battle.", said Axel.
All the new Pokemons got excited especially Togepi. It always wanted to be strong and now it was going to take its first step. It had very high expectations for itself.
The training grounds have similar mechanisms. For instance, there was a machine that would shoot out small bullets made of iron and the Pokemon had to dodge it. This was to test their agility. There were many levels on it and Axel told all of them to start from the first level.
Totodile and Mankey were very good at dodging but Togepi was the worst. It had a small body and very small legs and hands. Its body structure made it very difficult to dodge any bullets and it was furious. Axel told it to calm down and start with another training exercise like a defense training exercise but would Togepi let it go?
Of course not.
It would not back down. It was many small bruises on all of its body. Finally, Axel realized that it was taking things too far and he berated Togepi to rest for some time.
"What are you doing? Do you think that you can get strong by doing this? I told you to try another training ground. Now go and rest. You will not train for the whole day.", shouted Axel.
Even though it was very arrogant, it was still a kid. It was overwhelmed after hearing its master shout at it. Nidoking took it upon itself to give Togepi some useful advice.

Pokemon POV start
"Are you okay there buddy?", asked Nidoking.
"You don\'t need to talk to me. I can handle myself.", said Togepi.
"You know, Axel is an excellent trainer. When he told you to try other exercises, he didn\'t mean that you are too weak to train in the agility training ground.", said Nidoking patting Togepi\'s back.
The difference in their height was so much that it used its tail to pat its back.
"He didn\'t?", asked Togepi.
"Of course, he didn\'t. I am his first official Pokemon, so let me tell you something about Axel. Others say that he is a very good person and has a great heart but all of them are wrong."
"I knew it. I knew that something was wrong about him.", said Togepi.
"Yes, Axel is ruthless. He does care about us and treat us like family but since he is doing all these things, like providing us a good place to live and eat and even going on adventure, he expects something from us.
He expects us to work hard till we drop. You guys are still too young and don\'t know much about it. Grow up a bit and you will know how harsh he is in training us.
So, when he said you to try another training ground, he didn\'t mean that you are weak for this training ground."
"Then what did he mean by that?", asked Togepi.
"He just meant that you were not ready for it. Just look at me. I am very heavy, do you really think that I can dodge attacks like boss?", asked Nidoking.
Togepi looked at Shedinja and then at Nidoking. Shedinja was very fast and Nidoking was very heavy. So there was no way that Nidoking could beat Shedinja in speed.
"No, you cannot."
"Yes, you are right, I cannot but that doesn\'t mean that I am weak. If I am weak in running and dodging then I should focus on defense. That is why my defense is very high compared to boss.
You should also focus on your future evolution. Like your final evolution. They have wings and they must be known for flying at high speed. But you right now cannot and you also don\'t have high speed."
"Then what should I do?"
"I think you should focus on your defense for now. I am not saying that you should completely leave training on your agility but you should focus on defense and attack.
When you evolve, you can focus on your speed too. Then you would have high defense, speed, and attack at your disposal. You will then be invincible.", said Nidoking.
Togepi then jumped and stood up in its tiny legs. It looked up at Nidoking and said, "You are right. I should plan by training too. Thank you kid for helping me out. I will not forget this favor."
It then started to walk towards the defense training ground.
"How the hell am I a kid when I can crush you with my little finger?", shouted Nidoking but Togepi was not listening to it. It had long gone to continue its training.
Pokemon POV end

Axel felt bad about shouting at Togepi but he had no choice. That Pokemon was very arrogant and proud to let it go. Pokemon like Togepi and Weedle were very weak in their first 2 stages of evolution but they grow exceedingly strong at their final evolution if they were nurtured very well.
That meant that they would need a lot of resources. Axel could still remember the pain he went through to cultivate Beedrill. He had to work his ass off for it. However, he was very rich and had a lot of connections but the situation was still not good.
This was due to Togepi itself.
Togepi was a fairy/flying type Pokemon but it mainly focused on its fairy type. It had also made clear that it would only focus on its fairy type. So, he needed a lot of fairy type energy to cultivate Togepi. However, that was the problem.
The places where one could cultivate fairy type energy were very rare to the point that it was almost nonexistent. Axel had been frying his brains to find such type of place for a whole month but he had not been able to do it.
He also asked Lance and Lorelai about it but they also had no idea about it. Fairy type energy was a mysterious type of energy. No one, till this date had been able to uncover all of its secrets.
So, he didn\'t know what to do. He had been training all of them on the ancient way to power given by Mew and they were getting strong but he knew that Togepi was lacking.
As he was wondering how to train his Togepi, he got a call.
Tring.. Tring..
Tring... Tring...
Surprisingly, it was from Angela.
He picked up the phone.
"Hey Angela, long time to see. How is the family now?", asked Axel.
"We all are doing good. I heard that you made a good relationship with the Gatr family.", said Angela.
Axel could hear a hint of anger from her. He could understand. He was from the Venu family now and he was making relationships with other families without saying anything to her.
"Hey hey, don\'t get angry. I just met one of the family members and he said that he would give me a training manual on Totodile. That is all. They also offered me to train my Pokemons in their training ground.", said Axel.
"Axel, they are from another family. We are rivals."
"How can they be our rivals? We are from a different region."
"Sigh, I guess I am in the wrong. You don\'t know much about competition and families. Axel and any other organization are our rivals. You are right. They are from another region and we are not in competition with them but they are from another organization.
You are our star trainer and also an elder. Every 10 years, all the starter families from the main regions meet and we have a huge competition. So they are our rivals. I know that you don\'t know about it but leave that place now.
They must be keeping records of all of your Pokemons right now."
"Really? They would do that?"
"Of course, I know I would do it if I were them."
"Ok, I will leave tomorrow but you need to tell me all these things. I am an elder now."
"I know and I am sorry that I didn\'t tell you before. If there is anything that I can help you with, do tell me.", said Angela.
Axel then told me about the problem that he was facing right now about Togepi.
"Haha, you are in luck. I have a perfect solution for it. You should have asked me first.", said Angela with a smile.
"Do we have any fairy training grounds? I don\'t think that we do."
"We kind of a do right now. Do you remember about Aeos island that I talked to you about?", asked Angela.
"Yes, you said they made strange armor and we the Kanto region could go there right now.", said Axel.
When Axel was talking about the Cipher organization with Angela, she had told him about the Aeos island. Aeos island was a trivial region. The island was recently discovered and it was an unclaimed island. Kalos and Kanto region were in a heated debate on who was going to claim it. After many discussions/argument, they reached an agreement.
Kalos would utilize the island for 5 years and Kanto would do the same after 5 years. It was not the Kanto region\'s turn to use it. However, the island was very harsh and a trainer would need to have at least 6 king rank Pokemons to go there.
Axel was very weak at that time but he was now sufficiently strong to go there.
"But how can Aeos island help me in this issue?", asked Axel.
"The island is very mysterious. It had only been 4 years since the Kanto region got to use but from our sources, the island has many mysteries. There is also a place where there is abundant fairy type energy but that place is also very dangerous.
No, one has been able to go there successfully. However, that place was also recently discovered.", said Angela.
"Can\'t the Kalos region help us in this? They were the first to go there. They must have good information about it."
"And why would they do that? They would be using that island after 4 years and they would want it to be untouched. We have to do that ourselves.
I called you today cause the quota has come up to go there. If you are interested, you can come to Venu family after a month.", said Angela.
"Hmm, that is interesting. But I need full information on it before I make my decision.", said Axel.
"Then, why don\'t you come to Violet city. I will be there in 2 days. We can discuss it over there. It is not safe to talk about the details on the phone."
