Dual-career Pokémon trainer

On the somewhat messy battlefield, a small, glittering object flashed between two fingers.

It looks like two staggered triangles, and the overall color gradually changes from yellow to brown from bottom to top and from top to bottom.

Especially when it is caught by light, making it more obvious and shining.

This is the emblem of the Kanaz Gym, the Rock Emblem.

"By the way, although it may be a little abrupt, if you plan to stay in Kanaz City for a while, can you come to our Kanaz Trainer Academy for an open class?"

Seeing Lin Jing taking the badge, Du Juan suddenly spoke.

"Open class... this is..."

"Of course, no problem. I am also very interested in the trainer school.

Let’s go and see it together!”

Before Lin Jing finished speaking, Lukia next to him suddenly interrupted him.

“…Okay, but I guess we’ll have to talk about it tomorrow.

Today, I have to take Riolu and the others to the Pokémon Center to rest."

Although Lucia's quick answer left him speechless, Lin Jing still agreed.

"That's no problem, of course. I'll be waiting for you at Kanaz Academy!"

In Du Juan's farewell room, Lin Jing and the others had already left the gym.

...

At the Pokémon Center, several wounded little guys have been taken away by Miss Joy and Chandler.

Perhaps because he was very accustomed to this process, Lin Jing did not continue to look at the closed door, but turned his gaze to Lukia.

Being stared at by Lin Jing like this, Lucia felt a little embarrassed: "Why...why are you looking at me like that?

Aren't you curious about the Trainer Academy?"

"Not at all. I was going to refuse."

"Why is that? Don't you know what's inside the trainer academy?

Or did you already know this?"

“I guess I knew it a long time ago.

I attended classes at the trainer school in Sinnoh when I was traveling before..."

Seeing how curious Lukia was, Lin Jing took the opportunity to tell Lukia about her past experiences while the little ones had not yet fully recovered.

Frankly speaking, there is nothing fun in the Trainer Academy. Apart from the most basic courses, there are only some practical training.

However, most of the battles between academic trainers are too rigid.

Even if there are one or two outstanding ones occasionally, they are the trainers that Lin Jing often fights against in the wild, or those who are slightly stronger than them.

And this is still in the senior grade.

If it is a lower grade student, it is basically the same as taking care of a child.

As for classes... to put it simply, it's just telling stories about travel, and playing exhibition games and the like.

After experiencing it once, Lin Jing found it difficult to muster any interest anymore.

And the little ones... Honestly speaking, considering the nature of that kind of learning battle, our own little ones can't even form a team.

Even the second team had no interest.

Of course, he could understand Lukia's curiosity.

That's why he didn't refuse after Lukia agreed.

"No way! Doesn't it sound interesting?"

Lucia's eyes seemed to be radiating light.

"Are you sure you don't want to experience what it's like to be a teacher..."

Lin Jing looked at the guy next to him with dead fish eyes.

Lukia stuck out her tongue in embarrassment as if her thoughts had been exposed.

"Hey, don't say that.

Don’t you think it’s interesting to hear your experience of winning as a senior with others looking at you with admiration? "

"...Not at all."

Lin Jing said that he didn't win to experience the admiring gazes of others.

He simply wanted to experience the fun of fighting.

Of course, it also depends on the willingness of our own Pokémon.

As for winning all the time... since we are already fighting, of course we have to give it our all.

"Since you are so interested, how about I talk to Du Juan and ask you to give a lecture tomorrow?"

"Hey! This... isn't good.

I don’t have anything to show for it…”

“Okay, as the winner of two gorgeous competitions, it should be possible for you to give lectures.

Otherwise, if you feel so reluctant, forget it."

Lin Jing directly interrupted Lukia's pretentiousness.

It's so obvious, why are you pretending?

"Ahem, since you've asked me to do this, it's settled!"

Although she tried her best to act calm, the upturned corners of Lucia's mouth still revealed her inner feelings.

...

I brought the healed little ones back to the room and lay down directly on the bed that I hadn't slept in for several days.

He threw out three red and white Poké Balls.

As soon as the three little guys, full of energy again, appeared on the bed, Lin Jing picked up the blue...ball sea lion and rubbed its slightly wet fur.

"Thank you for your hard work in today's battle."

“Da Da~ (It’s okay~)” “Hu Wu. (No, no, no.)”

Little Fairy and the Ball Sea Lion responded, but Riolu didn't say much. Instead, his eyes looked a little vague.

The next second, a familiar and slightly wet hand was placed on its head.

"Why, you're the one who's had the hardest time today, aren't you going to say something?"

"Leo Leo..." (I need to practice more...)

Riolu's voice was a little muffled.

Although Lin Jing didn't say it explicitly, it also discovered it.

Since its attributes restrained the opponent four times, it actually ended up in a draw with the opponent.

That's right, it's a draw.

In the end, it just relied on its strong will and mental strength to delay waking up for a few seconds.

For it, this result is almost the same as losing the game.

You know, it has an absolute advantage in attributes, and it can still be beaten like this even with the sword dance enhanced state.

Thinking of this, Riolu clenched his claws even more.

But in Lin Jing's opinion, it was even more adorable, making people want to hold it in their arms and take a deep breath or two.

Of course, he managed to suppress these little thoughts today.

The gentle wave passed along his arm, soothing Riolu's unwilling heart.
