Chapter 309 Phase 1
"Raya, Jinze, Kurt..."
As Mandia slowly read out the names of the eliminated players, many of the trainers who had originally had some expectation on their faces were shocked and their faces turned pale.
Some trainers who had not yet been called were also nervous, fearing that they would be the next one because they themselves were not very confident.
When Mandya read out the last name, seventeen people were eliminated because their scores did not meet the requirements, while the rest passed smoothly.
Including the group of people who were eliminated previously, more than half of the trainers failed the first round of written examination alone, and in the end only about twenty trainers were left.
There are two more rounds of assessments to come, and it is estimated that very few people will be able to pass them successfully.
As the eliminated trainers left one after another, the second round of assessments began. The second round of practical ability assessment was the same as the written test, but the content of the assessment was slightly different from the previous ones.
In the past, each trainer would receive an ordinary Poké Ball, capture a Pokémon, and then train it for a short period of time. The quality of the assessment would be judged by the degree to which the Pokémon had completed the requirements according to specific training requirements.
However, this time there are no Poké Balls, and trainers need to rely on their own abilities to capture Pokémon and train them for a short period of time.
"In ancient times, there were no Poké Balls, but people at that time could still rely on their own wisdom to capture powerful Pokémon. A true trainer didn't need to rely on Poké Balls!"
Mandia spoke up.
This change undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the assessment. Many trainers were dumbfounded. How could they capture Pokémon without Poké Balls? Without the restraint of Poké Balls, it was impossible for Pokémon to be obedient.
The only way is to suppress them violently, but then there will be no way to train Pokémons, as the Pokémons will never obey the orders of the trainer, and abusing Pokémons will also be despised by others.
"I just realized that without the Poké Ball, I don't know how to capture Pokémon."
"How can this be subdued?"
For many trainers, it is very difficult to capture Pokémon without using Poké Balls, because most trainers rely on fighting to defeat Pokémon, then use Poké Balls to capture Pokémon, and then slowly develop feelings for them.
This is the normal way to capture Pokémon, but now that such an important link as the Poké Ball is gone, there’s a feeling of being helpless.
The Poké Ball is a great invention of modern times, which has brought the profession of trainer to almost the peak of history. However, trainers who lose the Poké Ball are immediately relegated to their original state in terms of capturing Pokémons.
However, what Mandia said is correct. In ancient times, even without Poké Balls, there were many people who could capture Pokémons. This shows that it is possible to capture Pokémons without Poké Balls.
It was just that at that time, because it was extremely difficult to tame the elves, and due to the times, the elves were generally regarded as important tools of war.
That is to say, with the advent of Poké Balls in modern times, almost everyone can become a trainer and capture Pokémon as long as they have the conditions. In addition, as the continent becomes more peaceful, Pokémon are gradually no longer a tool of war.
However, the tradition of Pokémon fighting has remained, and the profession of trainer has become the mainstream profession on the continent.
Kalia has read some history books, but the ones about ancient wars were almost glossed over and there were very few records.
However, there are records of some ancient celebrities conquering powerful elves. You have to know that there was no high technology in ancient times. People relied on their weak strength to conquer powerful elves that were ten or a hundred times stronger than their own. It has to be said that it is a miracle.
Although Poké Balls cannot be used in the second round of assessment, Kalia is confident that she can capture a wild Pokémon.
The Pokémon in this area are all docile in nature, and are obviously specially cultivated by the Alliance. Otherwise, if they have a slightly fiercer personality, it would be impossible to tame them without a Poké Ball.
So the difficulty has been reduced a lot. As long as you treat these Pokémon sincerely, the success rate is still not low. The key is that some trainers have not adapted to it.
"The deadline for taming an elf is two days. You must find your own food and shelter. After taming an elf, you can apply for an inspector's inspection. Those who pass can enter the second stage, which also takes two days. Once the elf masters the designated moves, the assessment will be considered a success." Mandia looked at the panicked expressions of the crowd, not surprised at all, and spoke slowly.
"The assessment starts at 2pm and ends the afternoon of the day after tomorrow. You can prepare yourself now."
With those last words, Mandia left, leaving only the inspector and the trainer still there.
"This is too difficult. How can we capture Pokémons without Poké Balls?" As soon as Mandia left, the trainers who had been whispering gradually became louder and began to complain, hoping to find a solution.
The assessment has not started yet, so it is okay to discuss it. It would be best if we could find a quick way to conquer the enemy during this period of time.
"Kalia, do you have any ideas?" Mal had successfully passed the first round of written tests. Now the second round of practical assessment was really a hell of a task for him, and he had no idea where to start.
"I, I'm not sure either." Kalia shook her head. The most she could do was to refer to what was in the book, but she couldn't copy it blindly. So the key would depend on her performance after the assessment began.
"However, the Poké Ball method doesn't work. You can try a gentler approach." Kalia suggested. Without the Poké Ball, it would not work to defeat the opponent first and then use the Poké Ball to capture it.
It is best to cultivate feelings in a gentle way and then slowly win them over.
What is the real meaning of capturing Pokémon? It means that the Pokémon recognizes the trainer, is willing to follow the trainer, and obeys the trainer's orders. Capturing with Poké Balls only provides a layer of insurance for the trainer and the Pokémon, but it is just insurance. If the Pokémon does not recognize you, it will sooner or later break free from the Poké Ball and escape .
Therefore, as long as the Pokémon recognizes the trainer, there will basically be no problem. Even without a Poké Ball, the Pokémon will follow the trainer.
Two o'clock in the afternoon arrived quickly.
The trainers re-entered the wild area. Some trainers already had some clues, while others could only take one step at a time.
This round of assessment is divided into two stages, a total of four days, the capture stage and the training stage. Trainers also need to take care of their own food and accommodation during these four days.
It is estimated that many trainers will be eliminated again.
…
A wild area, somewhere.
Kalia set her target to capture the previous Pokémon because Charizard and this Pokémon seemed to have a good relationship.
The Pokémon captured during the assessment cannot be taken away, and Kalia doesn't care about the type of Pokémon to be captured . Pokémon is undoubtedly the best choice because of its gentle personality.
The first thing is to get in touch with this Pokémon and get familiar with it as quickly as possible.
As for the issue of food and shelter, it is not a big problem for Kalia who often lives in the wild. Even if she sleeps directly on the ground, she is very safe with the elves guarding her.
