I Really Don't Want To Be A Trainer

The "Piplup Cup" is held every summer is for Rookie Trainer.

Most of the contestants are high school and freshmen from Pokémon Academy.

As an official event recognized by the Association, outstanding rankings can helped in the [Primary Rank Trainer Certificate].

But Luke does not plan to be a Trainer, and naturally he has no plans to participate.

Summer is hot.

In the rental house, the electric fan rotates.

Luke is sitting in front of the computer, editing the next video release.

Gastly faced the fan with his mouth wide open, the mist kept floating, and the voice echoed with the fan.

"Ah wu wu wu wwww~~~"

For "Gastly's Breeder's Handbook", Gastly's study progress has reached the actual combat chapter-"How to command Gastly to conduct a real battle ".

"Gastly's temperament is quite active, and there are often unexpected performances in battle…"

Gastly studies the books and nodded frequently.

"Sizzle!" (It seems to make sense!)

"Exactly, instead of rigidly training, it's better to focus on developing Gastly's autonomous battle awareness."

"jie jie~?" (How to breed?)

"Different Gastly have different personalities and different ways of playing. Finding the most suitable field is the key."

"jie jie~ jie jie~!" (Understood!)

Gastly levitated in midair, grinning triumphantly, and seemed to say, "I already understand it completely."

In just two days, Gastly not only learned Confuse Ray but also skillfully used Night Shade, and the source of this knowledge was none other than Blue's "Gastly's Breeder's Handbook." Gastly had licked the book to pieces, and even the handwriting had become blurred.

Gastly glanced sideways at Luke and saw that he was completely focused on the computer. Gastly couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.

Gastly spread the book out and leaned in, floating in and out of the shadows.

The Moomoo Milk in the refrigerator had been drunk, and the blue drink was already empty. The "Speed enhancer" drink had visibly increased Gastly's movement speed.

Due to Gastly's innate ability to blend into the shadow, its concealment was also improved to a certain extent.

Bubbling with excitement, Gastly glanced at a line of words in the Breeder's Handbook and immediately perked up.

"How to deal with Pokémon's depression."

"Jie jie~ jie jie~!" (Tell me!)

"One, increase Pokémon's intimacy with the help of Items and Pokémon food."

"Sika!" (I ate everything at home Σ(°△°|||))

"Two, go on camping, picnic, and other activities with your Pokémon."

"Hey!" (He ignores me (╬▔皿▔)╯)

"Three, use a battle win to motivate Pokémon."

"Jie jie~!" (That's it (✪ω✪))

Gastly shook his head, pondering for a long time.

Gastly slowly drifted to Luke's side, then licked Luke's cheek with his tongue and blinked.

Gastly: (⊙ˍ⊙)

"Oh." Luke immediately understood.

"Are you hungry? Do you want me to order some food?"

As Gastly got hold of the phone and tried to pass it back, he accidentally laughed.

"Jié jié jié!"

"What's so funny? Why are you laughing like that?"

Gastly continued to laugh and came to the side with the phone in his mouth. He used his tongue to slide through the interface, searching for something.

Nessa's photo? No, not this...

Elesa on the catwalk? Not this either...

Gastly, still finding Luke's peculiar interests amusing, suddenly had his eyes shine when he saw the announcement for the "Piplup Cup Rookie Trainer Tournament."

["Piplup" Cup Rookie Trainer Tournament, inviting all young people interested in becoming Trainers to participate!]

The registration required Luke's ID card information, and after some searching, Gastly, with his fangs, filled in the registration form. After half an hour, he sighed with relief.

[Mr. Luke, your registration review has been approved, and your entry ID is: 3534]

[The preliminary round will start next Wednesday, so please keep an eye on the schedule]

Satisfied, Gastly nodded and regrouped, determination evident in his eyes.

"I must win this tournament for my master!"

—

After finishing the video editing, Luke stretched and turned around to find Gastly diligently studying the Breeder's Handbook.

This sight triggered a subtle change in Luke's mindset.

"Should I start training myself?"

He realized that Gastly was taking care of everything on his own, from arranging his diet and tactics to planning his training. Luke couldn't help but feel a bit strange and started to question whether he was being too lazy and passive in comparison.

The realization gave him the feeling that he was wasting his potential.

"System, can you check the moves Gastly currently masters?"

[Whether to spend 500BP to activate the VIP1 privilege'Pokémon Pokédex']

[No ]

"Yes." Luke twitched the corner of his mouth, "Is it possible that there are VIP8 privileges?"

[Remaining BP points: 570]

[Target Retrieving…The target has been confirmed! ]

[Gastly ]

[Attribute: Ghost +Poison Type

Characteristic Trait: Levitate

Master the moves: Confuse Ray, Lick , Mean Look, Will-O-Wisp, Curse, Night Shade]

Luke was surprised by the list of moves Gastly had mastered. In reality, Pokémon are not limited to four moves, and the number of moves can reflect their strength to a certain extent. Seeing that Gastly had learned six powerful moves, Luke was amazed.

He couldn't help but wonder if Gastly was really that strong. He jokingly said, "I just throw a Poké Ball at it and it was catched by me?"

Luke scanned the moves again List, suddenly clicking one's tongue in wonder.

"Dirty, it's really dirty!"

"Luke was impressed by Gastly's mastery of five status condition moves out of the six moves it had learned. He chuckled and said, "With such a wide range of status condition moves, any Pokémon that faces Gastly in battle is in for a tough time. It almost feels unfair for them!"

Confuse Ray can cause confusion, Lick can cause paralysis, and Will-O-Wisp can cause burns.

Mean Look can't get out of the battle, Curse can continue to weaken the opponent's physical strength.

If you add Toxic and Hypnosis…

Then this wave will be a killer!

Status Condition in reality can be superimposed.

This is why Luke's "Substitute-Toxic-Protect-Paralysis" is so disgusting.

Now Luke seems to have discovered a new way to carry forward the disgusting tactics.

"Confusion, paralyzed, burned, poisoned… These Status Conditions can be used together!"

Gastly, Dirty Routine!

Although the breeding direction is determined, Luke is really too lazy to breed.

Being a Trainer is not worth it!

Isn't it good to just open a live broadcast because of bad money?

The number of subscribers in the live broadcast room has reached 80k, and no effort was made to complete the small goal of showing myself.

At this critical moment, system has released a new task.

[Task "I am really not a million-level traffic"]

[Task description: Publish a million-view video]

[Task reward : 1000BP points, Random Skill LV3*1, random purple Items *1]

Luke has been experiencing the positive effects of the system items, especially the enhanced version of the speed enhancer that significantly boosted Gastly's speed. He couldn't help but think that if he could get items worth hundreds of thousands, he could make a fortune by reselling them.

The video he had just edited was his new release titled "Teacher Luke's Battle Instructions 04: Shrink Squad." Luke was excited to share his strategies for countering the Pink Devil, a notorious team known for its use of the Shrink Squad tactic.

The Chansey with Eviolite was the star of this team, being virtually untouchable with its double defenses and dodge rate increases from Minimize. Luke admired the Chansey's powerful performance and dubbed it a handsome Pokémon.

Luke has a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth.
