Dual-career Pokémon trainer

I don’t know how long these two guys struggled, but in the end, Lin Jing’s weak human body was the first to declare defeat.

"Leo Leo..." (You always do this, aren't you tired...)

Riolu tidied his messy hair and felt helpless as he looked at the person lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out.

"Ha....ha...hehe, why are you tired, ha~~

Isn't it nice to exercise and feel fluffy?

You must be feeling much better now, right?"

Lin Jing tilted his mouth, and from his still moving fingers it seemed that he was still savoring Riolu's soft and smooth hair.

"Leo... (You are in a better mood, aren't you...)"

Riolu's mouth twitched, with helplessness on his face, but finally the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

Although I said that, the depressed mood I had felt because of the draw has indeed improved a lot now.

...

“Cha-bu-cha-bu. (It really is like this every time.)”

The baby almost spit out some watermelon seeds, and there was still red watermelon juice at the corners of his mouth.

"Fly, fly. (There's nothing I can do about it. Jing is just this kind of person who worries a lot.)"

Fairy Eevee yawned, with a bit of jealousy on her face.

"Awoo, woof. (But Riolu is really similar to Shizuka in this aspect of persistence. Shizuka has said it so many times, but he still has no intention of changing.)"

Arcanine scratched its neck with its hind paws, causing Lin Jing to look at it sideways.

"Hey, hey, I just asked you to help, but instead of watching the show, you're here making sarcastic remarks!"

After taking a sidelong glance at the furry creature who seemed to be really protesting, Windspeed didn't reply.

If he was talking about the moment when he cried for help while Riolu was riding on his neck, this guy's expression, with his mouth almost splitting with laughter, didn't look like he needed help at all.

Besides, isn't it common for these two guys to end up wrestling with each other over things like this?

“Forget it, never mind you.

Riolu, since you still like head-on battles so much, how about evolving quickly!

By then your waveguide will be more powerful, and you can even use wave missiles.

If you follow the training I planned before, you will definitely become super strong! "

Ignoring the indifferent big dog, Lin Jing tempted Riolu who had recovered.

"Leo... (This...)"

“Okay, I get it.

If you have thought it over, tell me again."

Seeing Riolu's hesitation, Lin Jing knew what it was thinking and interrupted its next words directly.

Ask him to do something like "I will never rape you after you evolve". These promises are obviously false as soon as they hear them and are of no use at all.

"Anyway, when you feel you can't improve, tell me.

When the time comes, you must let me see how handsome you are when you evolve."

Lin Jing encouraged him by pinching Riolu's little paws again.

"Leo. (Got it.)"

Looking at those eyes filled with expectation and eagerness, Riolu felt a little guilty for some reason.

However, when he thought about his future fate and their original plan, Riolu immediately put it to an end.

In order to become stronger after evolution and catch up with several predecessors, it is necessary for Riolu to better train and accumulate energy during this period.

(Of course, it’s also important to be able to wait until a certain furry person harasses you day and night.)

Anyway, let’s continue practicing sword dance!

Having made up his mind, Riolu pushed away the pair of squirming hands that had been placed on his waist again without him noticing.

He exerted a little force with his feet and jumped directly down the stairs through the window.

"Leo Leo! (I'm going to train!)"

"This guy is really..."

Looking at the blue figure that disappeared in an instant, Lin Jing shook his head helplessly.

His eyes turned to the little fairy who was chasing Hua Yeti at the side.

It's okay for the Ball Sea Lion. In addition to practicing its bubble skills, it can also learn other moves through the learning machine or from several other little guys at this stage.

And after they finish their next stop at the Orange Gym, they won't need to be suppressed when they go out to sea and can start evolving.

As for this little guy... before he evolves, the moves he can learn are really limited.

Even though Cream has practiced to perfection, there is not much room for improvement for Little Fairy Milk's race.

In addition to its positioning as a supporting hand, and the issue of needing to learn new moves after evolution, can the evolution of this little guy be put on the agenda?

Thinking of the plush tail candy ornament in the backpack, Lin Jing was silently calculating in his heart.

Or should I keep it and wait until some grand celebration to get an Ice Stone and perform an evolution show with Vulpix?

It’s a bit difficult to decide.

Lin Jing and her friends and Du Juan

This is our fifth gym badge.

But what I didn't expect this time was that Dujuan had just taken over the Kanaz Gym not long ago.

I have to say it takes a lot to become a gym trainer.

Considering the strength of those Pokémon, if they were to fight head-on, it would be difficult to win even with an attribute advantage.

Of course, we are not vegetarians, and we won in the end.

...

I plan to go directly to Chenghua City for my next gym.

I heard that Mr. Qianli also moved here not long ago this year.

Come to think of it...it seems like I can still meet the current Xiaoyao in advance.

Hmm...Should I try to tie that silly thing up now? It seems a little too early.

Tsk---I suddenly thought of that one which was the most likely, but I still failed after trying three regions...

Thinking about the Xiaoyao I saw at that time... Forget it, instead of setting a trap now, I feel it is better to hope for some people to come forward on their own initiative, such as Lila and Semie, who are more likely to do so.

Damn it, after going there to play, I want to ship them even more but that blockhead is totally unmovable (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

Forget it, let’s prepare well for the next battle.

If the opponent is Mr. Qianli, it would be better to let a few of them go up.

August 244, 8th year of the Alliance Calendar, in Kanaz City, Hoenn Region

Picking up the pen, Lin Jing pushed away the big dog that was approaching.

“Okay, you will definitely be in the next battle.

What's there to peek at? "

Arcanine's eyes were odd: "Woof, Woof? (I'm not worried about that. I'm just more curious about why you are so interested in that kid named Xiaozhi?)"

"...Didn't I tell you not to look at it?"

Lin Jing felt a little regretful about teaching these little ones to read.

Windy Dog rolled his eyes: "Woof, woof, woof. (Anyway, if we don't look at it now, it's not like we won't see it when we have nothing to do. Besides, I heard what I said last time.)"

"Awoo, awoo, woof, woof. (So, why do you care so much about that kid?)"

After the explanation, Windspeed turned his attention back to the previous matters.

"Well...should I say it's anticipation or fun?

After all, that kid is the reason why I always wanted to be a trainer."

"Ouch? (What?)"

Not only Arcanine, but also the other little guys who were either playing or lying beside it and yawning became energetic.

I've never heard Jing say such a thing.

Amid the expectant gazes of many Pokémon, Lin Jing simply gave a (self-perceived) meaningful look and shook his finger gently.

"Well...I will never tell you."

"Woof~ (Really not possible~)" (?????)

Arcanine suddenly revealed its big watery eyes, and its gently swaying long hair seemed to have hit the heart of a fur lover.

Arden used the special attack version of Charm against furry people on Lin Jing, and the effect was outstanding.

"Ahem...Since you are so curious..."

Covering his nose, Lin Jing rubbed the super limited version of Windy Dog's expression hard, with a long tail sound in his mouth.

"I can't tell you that either."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't run, don't run, let me rub you again."

"Awoo! (I don't want that. Jing is hiding something from us now. I'm so sad!)"

"Where did you learn such tea-like remarks?"

"Ouch. (Sylveon Eevee was recommended "What Should I Do If I Chase a Trainer" by its future self)"

"Fly! (Shut up!)"

Snapped---

A white streak suddenly flew over, but was nimbly avoided by Windy Dog.

However, Lin Jing next to him was still a little dazed.
