Chapter 197: Chapter 191 Magnet Mountain_1
Translator: 549690339
Thunder and Lightning drilled into its body, electric currents tingling all over, Little Magnetic Monster's screws and magnets spun at their fastest.
At such phantom-like speeds, Little Magnetic Monster had already lost sensation of them...
It was so fast, it even worried that parts of its body would detach from spinning too much and end up being "Five Horses Divide Corpse."
Meanwhile.
The Special Metallic Film on Little Magnetic Monster's body, filled with electric energy, kept merging into its body, making its already shiny body from Energy Blocks even more lustrous. The gleaming light on its body was as blinding as a bolt of lightning.
Ten minutes later.
Teacher Li shook his head and said, "It seems the strength of the lightning here is too weak, I didn't expect it to adapt so quickly..."
He called out to Fang Yuan, "We can consider changing locations, call it over."
"Geodude!!"
Upon hearing this, Teacher Li's Geodude stuck its Bone Club into the ground, an action that made Eevee look over, and then both Pokemon turned to look at Little Magnetic Monster.
"Oh oh, Eevee, throw a Shadow Ball to call Little Magnetic Monster down," Fang Yuan said, then we'll change the place.
...
The first day's challenge ended in the afternoon.
While the challenge was happening, Little Magnetic Monster was in pain yet enjoying it; after the challenge, Little Magnetic Monster only felt full-body stinging pain—the painful aftermath had fully hit.
Moreover, during this time its body kept overheating, showing some signs of falling ill.
But all of this was within Teacher Li's expectations, and under his care as a Breeder, Little Magnetic Monster gradually recovered, though it kept crying out during the process, making Eevee feel greatly moved. Eevee had long said that Thunder and Lightning were not something to be trifled with...
"Little Magnetic Monster, you did very well during the day!"
"The Thunderbolt you unleashed today was several times more powerful than before, how do you feel about that?" Looking at Little Magnetic Monster, Fang Yuan tried to distract it from its pain by striking up a conversation.
In the Electric Plains, the Thunderbolt released by Little Magnetic Monster in mid-air was quite stunning, vying against the lightning that descended from the sky, resisting each other. Although it ultimately failed to overtake the lightning, Fang Yuan thought that with the power of the Thunderbolt at that time, defeating Liu Le, Lin Jing and their Pokemon with ease wouldn't be a problem at all.
"Magnemite..." Little Magnetic Monster chuckled goofily, it only knew that it was filled with power at that moment.
Now... it couldn't do that anymore.
"Of course, after all, it had absorbed too much electricity into its body at that time. If it weren't for the use of magnets to enhance the body's magnetism and the metallic film in advance, it would have definitely fallen seriously ill," Teacher Li said while checking Little Magnetic Monster's body with his portable instrument, then continued.
Fang Yuan nodded in understanding, recalling how Pikachu in the animation faced a similar situation when challenging the Purpurine Gym. Pikachu, in a battle against the Electric Machine Robot, absorbed too much electricity. This led to an easy victory against the gym leader's three Electric Elves at the Electric Gym, using only three Electric Moves... Fang Yuan was shocked at the time, and it was only after Pikachu got sick and was hospitalized that Fang Yuan understood the reason.
"After the evolution training is completed, Little Magnetic Monster's Thunderbolt power will be enhanced. Whether it can reach the power level of when it was charged will depend on its effort," Teacher Li stood up to check the next part of the schedule.
"Bwoo, Bwoo~" Eevee came over, moving to Little Magnetic Monster's side, and started helplessly ringing the bell in front of it.
The pleasant ringing spread out, turning into silver ripples that floated over Little Magnetic Monster's body. After hearing the bell, Little Magnetic Monster felt some of the pressure on its body ease and looked at Eevee with gratitude.
"Bwoo~" Eevee was like a heartbroken big sister to Little Magnetic Monster, schooling it.
"You can't even withstand this much thunder and lightning? How are you going to take a bullet for me in the future??"
Eevee used Heal Bell with the help of Soothing Bell, and the effect was very good. However, after Eevee's lesson, Magnemite became distressed again.
Even though it's an Electric Pokemon, getting struck by lightning really hurts... please be understanding.
...
One day later.
Electric Plains, just outside a thunderstorm area.
In order to seize the electrical energy from the lightning in this area, Magnemite had to continuously challenge a group of wild Magnemites, and it only managed to take over the area after securing a victory.
During the challenge, Magnemite was badly injured, but even so, it still had to face thunder and lightning.
As the thunder from the storm echoed, the once shiny body of Magnemite was now covered in scars. It stared at the golden sea of lightning in the clouds with an unwilling expression. Currently, it could only passively wait for some lightning to fall and then struggle to resist... When would it be able to fly freely in the sea of lightning like the Legendary Pokemon in the stories Fang Yuan told?
Fang Yuan described how the Zapdos would flash through the cumulonimbus clouds, with consequent flashes of lightning, peals of thunder, downpours, gales, hail, and twisters occurring ceaselessly.
Magnemite also wanted to reach that level, but it knew it was still far from that goal.
It descended slowly, exhausted both in body and spirit.
Suddenly, Magnemite received a mysterious wave motion. It instinctively looked to the north, showing an eager expression.
Just then, its spiritual power had sharply touched upon something, feeling a wave motion that was very attractive to it... If it wasn't mistaken, that direction held something extremely beneficial for it.
"Magnemite! Magnemite!" Magnemite quickly flew to Fang Yuan's side, but considering Fang Yuan might not understand its own words clearly, it asked Eevee to convey its message.
"Bwoo?" Eevee was slightly startled and looked towards the direction indicated by Magnemite.
That direction was...
Fang Yuan turned his head and immediately realized there must be something attracting Magnemite. He couldn't help but ask Teacher Li what was going on.
"Hmm..." Teacher Li adjusted his glasses and said to Magnemite, "You little fellow, your perception is unexpectedly sensitive."
"Teacher Li, what's happening?" Fang Yuan asked.
"Ahead should be a Magnetic Mountain Area. As the name suggests, it's a mountain range filled with a strong magnetic field."
"Generally speaking, such places are more attractive to Electric Pokemon than thunderstorm areas, but there are hardly any wild Pokemon there because the areas suitable for habitation and training have all been occupied by Professional Trainers. They've let their Pokemon roam there to power up in the environment by themselves," Teacher Li explained.
Letting Pokemon roam... isn't an uncommon practice for most Trainers.
A somewhat normal Trainer would place their Pokemon in a Breeding House, leaving them to be taken care of by a Breeder.
A particularly special Trainer would let their Pokemon loose in various environments suitable for training them, such as the ocean, glaciers, volcanoes, and Magnet Mountains, which in some cases is more beneficial for the Pokemon's growth than staying by their side.
Xiaozhi is a typical master of letting Pokemon roam... there's no place he can't leave a Pokemon, whether it's Oak Research Institute, Charizard Valley, or even trading them for training with Legendary Pokemon...
"So, Magnemite is..." Fang Yuan realized.
"Yes, that's right. Magnemite has felt the wave motion from the Magnet Mountain... and is tempted by it."
