Chapter 98: Subduing Vulpix
In the blink of an eye, five days passed.
Kalia faces challenges from various trainers every day. Every day is very fulfilling. She experiences no less than ten battles a day, and all the challengers she meets are very powerful.
During these five days, Kalia experienced dozens of battles, with some wins and some losses, but most of the time she won more than she lost.
Many trainers know that there is a new defensive trainer, and there is a very powerful Charmeleon.
These five days of fighting were very satisfying for Kalia, and even more exciting for Lin Chuan.
Because he faces some elves with high racial values every day, and the levels of these elves are not low, this also causes Lin Chuan's level to increase rapidly, and he has increased by two levels in just five days.
In addition, the daily combat scores were not low, with at least one combat value reward of more than fifteen hundred. After five days, Lin Xing had at least seven or eight thousand combat values.
Lin Chuan used all of these 7,000 or 8,000 combat points to increase the water resistance. Just as Lin Chuan guessed, the water resistance could not be increased any further after it reached '1'.
Resistance has its limits.
After spending more than five thousand combat points to increase the water resistance to '1', Lin Chuan currently has more than two thousand combat points left and is not planning to use it for the time being.
Early morning, Elf Library.
"Kaliya, do you like Vulpix?" Grandma Mana knew that Kaliya was going to the battle tower again, so she came to Kaliya's room in advance and asked.
Kalia paused and nodded. Actually, her goal was to capture a water-type Pokémon, but she had never encountered a good water-type Pokémon. Plus, she was not even a beginner trainer, so she had been dragging her feet and had not captured the third Pokémon.
When she arrived at the Elf Library, Kalia also had the idea of taming the Vulpix, but after all, it was Grandma Mana's elf, so she couldn't take the initiative to propose it.
Kalia likes Vulpix very much. She has had a special liking for fire-type elves for a long time. When Grandma Mana asked her about it, she would definitely nod.
"Why don't you let Vulpix follow you?" Grandma Mana said, "Vulpix has been with me for so long, and I 've never seen it so clingy. It's obvious that Vulpix really wants to follow you."
"Vulpix is very smart. It knows that I am old, so it hopes to find a new master."
"But, without Vulpix, what will you do, Grandma Mana?" Kalia hesitated. Grandma Mana was actually very lonely. Vulpix had been the only one to accompany her for so many years. Now Vulpix is gone. It would be too pitiful if she left Hongyu City in the future and had no one to accompany her.
"I'm old, you don't have to worry about me." Grandma Mana shook her head. She had long been accustomed to it. It was enough for her to read a book and bask in the sun every day.
"Young man, you need to be more decisive." Grandma Mana said in a firm tone, wanting Vulpix to follow Kalia.
Kaliya no longer hesitated, then looked at the Vulpix beside her and asked: "Vulpix, are you willing to follow me?"
Vulpix let out a soft cry, jumped, and threw itself into Kalia's arms, using the intimate behavior to express its choice.
"Grandma Mana, thank you." Kalia thanked. Vulpix is not actually that strong among fire-type Pokémon, but the evolved Ninetails has strong strength and potential.
Moreover, the evolution of Vulpix is relatively simple, requiring only a Fire Stone. If it were in other places, the Fire Stone might be very expensive and rare, but in Ruby City, it is different.
Generally, Fire Stones are produced in places with very rich fire energy, and the volcano in Ruby City is undoubtedly such a place. Ruby City is also the main production base of Fire Stones among the major cities in the Sebastian region.
Kalia can climb the volcano directly, and if she is lucky, she can even find unpolished fire stones. However, generally speaking, fire stones are deep in the volcano, which is very dangerous.
In short, Fire Stones are not uncommon in Ruby City and can be bought directly at the Pokémon Shop, so the evolution of Vulpix is not a big problem.
"Haha, Vulpix should have found a new owner long ago." Grandma Mana smiled, as if she was entrusting her child to Kalia.
"Vulpix, come in."
Kalia took out the Poké Ball, aimed it at Vulpix, pressed the switch, and a red light enveloped Vulpix.
The next second, Vulpix obediently entered the Poké Ball and became Kalia's third Pokémon.
After releasing Vulpix again, Kalia picked up Vulpix and smiled gently: "From now on, we will be partners. There are also Charmeleon and Forest Lizard, you should also meet them."
Lin Chuan was not surprised to see Kaliya tame Vulpix. He felt that Vulpix was sticking to Kaliya every day during this period of time. Every time Kaliya went to the battle tower, Vulpix wanted to follow.
Vulpix has good potential. Its general characteristic is to attract fire, which allows it to resist a large amount of fire-type moves, or even be immune to them. It can also use this to increase its special attack ability value.
This trait is very useful against Fire-type Pokémon. In addition, Vulpix has a chance to have the Sunshine trait, which will cause sunny weather after it appears. However, Sunshine is a hidden trait, and only one in a hundred Vulpix has the Sunshine trait, so it is basically rare.
We should know by tonight. Generally speaking, the system will automatically record Vulpix's data. After all, Vulpix is already Kalia's Pokémon, even if it doesn't play.
After taming Vulpix, Kalia said goodbye to Grandma Mana and walked towards the battle tower, ready to start today's defense work.
Just as Kalia approached the battle tower, she found a man in black standing at the gate, seemingly waiting for someone.
When Kalia came closer, the man looked over, then stopped at Kalia's face and walked over slowly.
"You must be Kalia, right? I'm a mentor at the Emerald Elf Academy, and my name is Aix." Aix introduced himself.
Hearing this, Kaliya looked at the man in front of her and nodded: "I'm Kaliya, what do you want to see me about?"
Although I heard that it was from the Emerald Elf Academy, who knows whether it is true or not, and Kalia has no interest in the Elf Academy.
"I know about you. I won't waste any more words. Do you want to defeat Naoki Tamagawa and become the gym leader of Reiner City again?" X obviously knew about Kaliya and asked directly.
"I do, but I will rely on my own strength to defeat Naoki Tamagawa. As for the position of gym leader, I have no interest in it." Kalia had some idea of Axe's purpose. He obviously wanted to let her enter the Elf Academy. Otherwise, a mentor of the Elf Academy would not have to find her in person.
"Haha, you underestimated Naoki Tamagawa too much. You don't understand his current strength at all. He already has the strength of an intermediate trainer, and you haven't even completed the assessment of a beginner trainer."
"So what? I will be able to surpass him sooner or later."
"You are making progress, and he is also making progress every day. How can you surpass him? Face the reality." Axe shook his head.
"So, what do you want me to do?"
"I can recommend you to enter the Spirit Academy. You have great potential now and are worth my investment. When you arrive at the academy, I can provide you with enough resources. By then, when you have enough strength, you can even apply to challenge Naoki Tamagawa and replace him as the gym leader."
"Sorry, I don't want to go to the Elf Academy for the time being." Kalia refused directly. She had her own plans. The resources of the Elf Academy might be abundant, but there is no free lunch in the world. She prefers to fight for it herself rather than let strangers invest.
"Don't worry. The college is having a competition soon. I hope you can participate as a foreign aid to experience the competition atmosphere of the college. You won't refuse this, right?" Seeing that Kaliya was determined, Aix was ready to change his approach.
He had just learned about Kalia's performance in the battle tower during this period, so he thought Kalia was qualified and worth his time.
"When? I don't have time recently." Kalia did not refuse, but he could not leave the battle tower during this period because of the restrictions of the contract. It was not something she could decide at will.
"In a month."
