My elf trainer simulator

While the two were talking.

The director of the TV station walked up with a smile on his face.

"The filming was very successful! The battle between the two of you is really amazing to me. Miss Naqi, thank you for your cooperation. The program will be produced soon after this is over!"

"I hope you are satisfied. Thank you for your hard work."

Naqi nodded, and then thanked the other staff on the top floor.

The staff returned the smile one after another.

Kashiwagi silently put the badge in a special box and showed it to the big-mouthed kid next to him, whose eyes sparkled.

The director suddenly said:

"Mr. Kashiwagi, I would like to thank you for allowing us to shoot this time. I am really grateful."

"No, I just don't want to mess up the plan."

He responded casually, and then found several TV station staff gathered around him, anxiously and expectantly begging him to sign a book or clothes - it would be best if the big-mouthed boy also gave him a plum blossom seal or something.

He was not willing to refuse such a small request, but the big-mouthed boy refused to press the plum blossom seal. Instead, he enthusiastically grabbed the pen from Kashiwagi, held the pen in a posture of a three-year-old child, and thought for a moment like graffiti. Also wrote its name.

There is no doubt that this is a small result of its recent initial literacy with the help of Porygon II.

When he was in literacy class, Kashiwagi also started by learning how to write his own name and annotating the pronunciation.

The staff were very surprised.

"Big Mouth Baby's personal signature!"

"Great!"

"Thank you so much! I will definitely treasure it for the rest of my life!"

Several people, both men and women, bowed and thanked them.

"嘁哚~"

The big-mouthed boy proudly placed his hands on his hips.

Now that I can write, I feel like Pokémon as a whole has become more confident!

The director looked at this scene with a smile and took out a business card from his pocket, "This is my business card. I hope you accept it. Maybe we will have the opportunity to work together in the future, so please take care of me."

Kashiwagi reached out and took it——

[Hoenen TV, Producer of the First Production Bureau, Takemura]

"The same goes for me here. Please take care of Mr. Takemura." He himself had no prejudice against people in the TV station. Considering that there would be opportunities for cooperation when he became famous in the future, he was polite.

When Director Takemura saw Kashiwagi accepting the business card and being so kind, the smile on his face suddenly became more sincere.

The two parties briefly talked for a few words, and the main content revolved around the battle just now. Director Takemura regretfully said that he could not give too much footage of the battle just now in Naqi's personal interview.

After all, Naqi didn't have many highlight scenes. Counting carefully, she only had to force switches and defend against fatal moves a few times, but in the end she still played badly.

It's impossible for a TV station to show other people's highlight scenes in a personal interview, right? Not stupid.

Therefore, the director's initial attempt to use Kashiwagi's fame to increase ratings was a failure.

"With the development of the Internet in recent years, there have been fewer people watching TV, and it has become increasingly difficult for our TV station to operate." Takemura complained, and said that in the past, the TV station would select one or two trainers to be personal trainers almost every week. Exclusive interview.

From champions and Four Heavenly Kings to gym leaders and tournament winners, and even powerful private trainers.

Nowadays, only the personal interviews of the Four Heavenly Kings and gym leaders have any ratings. Not many people are willing to watch the interviews of ordinary trainers, and even the less famous gym leaders have no ratings.

So this column was adjusted from weekly to monthly, and recently there was the idea of ​​adjusting it to quarterly.

Quarterly?

Does anyone really care about such a long cycle?

Kashiwagi couldn't help but have doubts, and when he heard that Naqi had done a personal interview three years ago, and this time it was reprinted, he no longer had any expectations for this program.

The show that has already started to become a hot topic is destined to fail.

While Takemura was chatting, he suddenly changed his tone and said that if Kashiwagi shines at the next gorgeous large-scale celebration or Saiyu Convention, the TV station might try to launch his personal project.

"Kashiwagi-kun has become extremely popular recently. Your performance of leaping over the dragon's gate in the finals of the Autumn Leaf Festival became a blockbuster. Everyone on the stage knows about you."

"Director Takemura is too exaggerated..."

"It's not an exaggeration, it's not an exaggeration at all." Takemura quickly shook his head, "Sooner or later you will become a big shot. It is only a matter of time before you do a personal interview. I hope Kashiwagi-kun will give you some advice."

to be honest.

Kashiwagi has little interest in TV interviews.

But he knew that Shanmin, who was far away in Ourei, would definitely encourage him to participate. Based on the idea that he could not escape anyway, he simply took the initiative to learn about the specific situation.

We didn't chat for long.

Considering that the occasion was not suitable for a long conversation, Naqi still had other challengers to receive, and the director also needed to collect enough material from the upcoming battle.

Kashiwagi briefly understood the interview production process, then said goodbye and left.

Go down the long steps.

Halfway through, Shota's voice came from behind.

"Wait! Kashiwagi! Wait for me!"

He turned around in confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shota quickly ran to his side and stood next to him. After panting for a while, he touched the back of his head with some confusion and looked around, "That..."

Kashiwagi and Dazuiwa looked at each other, and neither of them said anything, just waiting quietly for the child to speak.

The happy eggs of the past were much more coquettish than this. They would have to think for a minute before saying a simple sentence. Their patience had long been cultivated.

"I-if I go on a trip, can I become as strong as you?" Shota finally opened his mouth as if he mustered up the courage.

After seeing the gym battle just now, he couldn't help but start to wonder if he could become as strong if he chose to travel instead of staying in the gym as an apprentice like the former did.

Faced with this question, Kashiwagi didn't hesitate much, shook his head and confessed: "I don't know."

"……Eh?"

Shota was stunned for a moment.

He thought about many answers that the other party might give, either ridicule or encouragement, but... I don't know?

"Everyone's circumstances are different. I'm not a prophet, so I can't predict your future achievements." Kashiwagi paused and asked, "Do you want to travel?"

"……Um."

Shota nodded hesitantly.

It was not the first day that he had a similar idea, but it was just difficult for him to give up his job in the gym because it was something he had fought hard to achieve.

In addition, he had never left Yinyu City and was quite confused about traveling, so he kept it in his heart.

Kashiwagi was a little surprised.

I thought Shota was a loose and passionate boy like Xiaozhi, but I didn't expect him to have such complicated psychological fluctuations.

If it were Xiaozhi, he would probably choose to travel with his eyes closed, right?

"Just do what you think is right."

He patted the other party's shoulder and said, "There's no need to think too much."

"The right thing to do..."

Shota lowered his head and murmured to himself. When he came to his senses, the latter had already disappeared with Big Mouth Baby.

——

Come out of the Pokémon Center.

Kashiwagi went straight to Keely's secret base.

To be honest, the gym battle with Naqi was much easier than he imagined. Happy Eggs and the others barely suffered much damage——

Haven't even been touched a few times.

However, through this battle he also discovered a lot of areas that needed to be made up for.

For example, Menas's move pool is not deep enough, Big Mouth Baby's output is quite limited even if it includes force and strange strength, etc., but Happy Egg is close to a complete form.

[Earth Projection] also makes up for its shortcomings in close combat...

But there are many more moves that can be learned.

"Let's take it step by step. The debts won't weigh you down." Kashiwagi thought of Doron Baruto who was still resisting him, and his heart suddenly calmed down.

There is almost a mountain of things to do.

There's no rush.

In a blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Keely's secret base. To his surprise, this guy seemed to have found two more "students" and was using his poor teaching ability to teach the secret power of learning methods.

"Finished the competition?"

Keely's eyes lit up when he saw him.

"Hmm... If you are busy, I will come back to you tomorrow." Kashiwagi glanced at the gloomy enemies and Pokémon, and he was not the only one who realized that this guy's teaching ability was unreliable.

"Come together! It's okay!"

Keely waved his hand grandly, "It just so happens that you can also review it."

Review it!

He simply stated the purpose of his visit directly - to inquire about the layout of the secret base. Anyway, with the special characteristics of Porygon II, it would only take a few days to learn the secret power.

Understanding the content in advance will help save time.

Hearing this, Keely glanced at the other two people with some embarrassment. His teaching ability is poor, but he is still very responsible. Now is undoubtedly the time to teach the latter two.

Seeing this, the two people quickly said: "Just let us study by ourselves! Self-study is also okay!"

"……Fine."

The blond young man from Hezhong had no choice but to agree.

The two came to a big tree again.

"Not all environments can use the power of secrets to create secret bases."

Keely talked eloquently: "Usually, there are three places that are more suitable for creating a secret base - the rock wall in the mountain: the cave; the trunk or branches of the big tree: the tree house; and the shrubs that are lush enough: the flower bed."

He patted the big tree in front of him, "There are two types of tree houses. One is made by hollowing out the tree trunk with secret power, and the other is made on the treetop. A tree with a large diameter like this is very suitable. The former, you try it...well, it seems that your Pokémon hasn't learned the secret power yet."

Kashiwagi nodded.

"Hey, let me demonstrate again." Kili released the desert dragonfly and ordered: "Use secret power on the big tree! Build a secret base!"

"Ouch!"

The desert dragonfly raised its claws, leaned down and pressed lightly on the tree trunk. A white light lit up, and the tree trunk soon sunk, revealing a large, dark hole.

After a few seconds, it raised its body.

"Ouch!"

"It's ready." Keely waved, took out a flashlight from his pocket and shined it into the tree hole, "Let's take a look inside, has it been built?"

Kashiwagi put his head in and took a look. Sure enough, as he said, there was already an extra space of about thirty square meters inside.

"As long as you learn how to use the secret power on the tree trunk, you can automatically create such a space? Is there any other point?"

"Other points? There really aren't any."

Keely shook his head.

"..."

He believed it for the time being, and then said: "What if we don't create a secret base in these three places, but instead put it in the living room of the hotel room?"

Unit Zero once created a strange space that enveloped the living room. He initially speculated that it was created by the power of secrets, hoping to confirm it through Keely.

When the latter heard this, he replied: "In the living room? The secret base created like that is unstable and may collapse at any time - why create a secret base in the room? It's unnecessary!"

"I met a wild Pokémon before. It broke into my hotel room and separated me from my Pokémon with a different space. Is this possible?"

"Ah~ That's indeed possible. You don't need to be nervous next time. That kind of space can't be maintained for a few minutes and it will decompose by itself. Like I said, it's unstable." Keely confirmed it.

Kashiwagi nodded in understanding.

After that, Keely showed him several other shapes made by secret bases.

The secret base in the cave in the rock wall is normal. The secret base in the shrub garden and the secret base on the treetops are almost the same as the alien spaces created by Unit Zero previously.

It's just more stable than that kind of alien space and won't disintegrate at will.

Kashiwagi asked the reason, and Keely told him that these two places met the elements of being concealed enough, and the key point of the secret base lies in the word "secret".

To be honest, it's a bit of a stream of consciousness, but fairly easy to understand.

The time soon came to evening.

Kashiwagi, who asked a lot about the secret base, left with satisfaction.

With this knowledge, you won't have to worry about any accidents when building a secret base in the wild in the future.

Return to hotel.

To celebrate successfully obtaining the White Feather Badge, Kashiwagi made an extraordinarily sumptuous dinner to reward the heroes who played today.

The three evil dragons were not very happy.

Because in the original plan, it was also a member of the gym battle. Of course, its priority was not as high as the first three, but it should have been able to play!

Why are you so powerful? Why don't you fight a little harder?

It glared angrily at the three Pokémon including Happy Egg, and successfully received a big fight from Big Mouth.

Snapped!

"嘁哚!"

Is your kid very active lately?

Don’t think that I won’t dare to hit you since you evolved!

The big-mouthed boy looked at the three evil dragons with unkind eyes. It beat this guy from childhood to adulthood. Even if it was only a few months in between, it still left indelible damage to the latter's young mind.

Therefore, even if the latter dares to challenge Boscodora's ace status, he will still feel guilty if he is stared at by the big-mouthed kid.

"Sigh..."

The three evil dragons squeezed and rubbed against the trainer aggrievedly, like a big dog being bullied.

"OK OK."

Kashiwagi comforted it and turned his attention to Doronbaruto, who was engrossed in eating at the outermost corner.

As if aware of the attention being paid to him, Doronbaruto quietly disappeared, leaving only the food in the bowl that kept disappearing to prove that it still existed.
