Chapter 137 Spiral Shadow Ball_1

Fang Yuan's wild imagination ultimately did not come to fruition.

He knew it himself very well.

Eevee's ability to comprehend Shadow Ball was the result of accumulated resources over time as well as Eevee's prolonged learning, not because the Ghost House was truly magical and could allow Pokemon to infinitely comprehend moves.

Just like how Magnemite comprehended Reflect Wall in the Gravity Room, both Pokemon fully capitalized on their hard-earned opportunity to translate their training experiences into results.

The role of Dream Demon and the Ghost House was simply to let Eevee closely feel the Shadow Ball and to provide a special environment that created an opportunity for Eevee to comprehend a new move, that's all.

This only shows that Eevee was too smart.

...

The rest of the way, Eevee and Magnemite passed through very quickly, treating the Ghost House as if it were nothing...

"This is too much."

Teacher Zhou Youyou, the person in charge of the Ghost House, was seeing such a bizarre and arrogant New Trainer Pokemon for the first time and couldn't help but feel discontent with the attitude of those Pokemon in the Ghost House.

Especially Dream Demon, even chatting with the challenger during working hours, is this reasonable?! Were they really behaving like the ghosts they were supposed to portray?

Before long... as Eevee managed to trick a Gengar into leading them on their way, Teacher Zhou Youyou could no longer tolerate it.

She stood up fiercely and said,

"That's enough, get them out of here, I can't watch this anymore!"

"The Pokemon in the Ghost House, it's time for another round of training!"

"Having been comfortable for so long, they've forgotten what they should and shouldn't do!"

"Uh..."

In the backstage, everyone looking at the angry Teacher Zhou Youyou, and the innocent-faced Fang Yuan, fell silent.

It wasn't really the fault of the Pokemon in the Ghost House; it was just that Eevee and Magnemite were too inexplicable.

Apart from the initial corpse model, along the way, Eevee and Magnemite had collected a bunch of scattered horror props and armed themselves with them.

Given Eevee's miraculous abilities in changing and assembling outfits, not only the Pokemon who stayed in the Ghost House but even those sitting here watching were seeing something new.

"I'll go get them..."

Fang Yuan said awkwardly, watching Eevee wreak havoc, he was also anxious; those props were bought by Mo Da with money, and if Eevee continued like this, destroying the scene, Fang Yuan worried that Mo Da would ask them for compensation...

Having comprehended Shadow Ball, the trip was already worthwhile, well... it was time to quit while ahead.

"Hehe..."

Those New Trainers who didn't know Fang Yuan were one thing, but Lin Sen from Mo Da Attached Middle School, who did know him, was completely resigned.

He swore he never wanted to see Fang Yuan and Eevee again in his life; it was too demoralizing.

...

Fang Yuan followed a staff member to pick up Eevee and Magnemite.

While waiting outside, Fang Yuan felt a bit excited.

He wasn't this excited when Magnemite learned Reflect Wall and Light Wall.

After all, Reflect Wall and Light Wall were merely defensive moves, which hadn't provided Magnemite any significant improvement in strength.

But Eevee's Shadow Ball was different.

Learning Shadow Ball signified that Eevee had finally grasped a range attack move, enriching its offensive capabilities.

Moreover, as a Ghost-type move, it was particularly effective against Psychic-type and Ghost-type Pokemon, allowing Eevee not to be so passive when facing these two types of Pokemon.

"I can finally set Bite aside."

"Trying to get close enough to Bite Psychic System or Ghost-type Pokemon was really difficult; Shadow Ball is more reliable," Fang Yuan mused.

Shadow Ball was notoriously difficult to master, on par with learning Psychic System moves. The amount of time Eevee spent learning it could practically grind the time taken to learn Quick Attack and Iron Tail into the ground.

"Now, the problem is... the difficulty of learning is directly proportional to the difficulty of practicing."

"Although Eevee has mastered Shadow Ball, becoming skilled and proficient in using it is a long and challenging road ahead," Fang Yuan reflected.

"I wonder if I could increase Eevee's mastery over Shadow Ball rapidly, like with Sand Splash, by using a similar move technique?"

Fang Yuan started to ponder, one of the Trainer's purposes is to swiftly strengthen their Pokémon using wisdom!

After a brief contemplation, Fang Yuan immediately thought of the principle behind Counter Shield.

Rotation.

If only the Ghost Energy of Shadow Ball could also rotate at high speed within a small area.

In that case, the tremendous tearing force generated by the energy would be sufficient to double the power of Shadow Ball.

Although Spiral Shadow Ball doesn't represent how well Eevee has mastered Shadow Ball, through this process, it could accelerate Eevee's familiarity with Ghost Energy.

Meanwhile.

Eevee, in high spirits, and Magnemite emerged from the Ghost House.

At that moment, Eevee was thinking... the Ghost House wasn't scary at all... those Ghost-type Pokémon were actually quite friendly...

"Bwoo??"

As soon as Eevee and Magnemite came out, they saw Fang Yuan standing there in thought.

Magnemite was all right... but as soon as Eevee saw Fang Yuan, it happily ran over, jumping onto him as if to claim credit.

"Bwoo! Bwoo!"

What Eevee wanted to tell Fang Yuan was that it learned the challenging move Shadow Ball in the Ghost House!!

Poor thing didn't know that Fang Yuan was already aware of this...

And he was already contemplating how to train Shadow Ball.

"Congratulations, Eevee..."

Fang Yuan smiled and looked at Eevee.

With that look, Eevee froze, having a foreboding feeling.

...

"Teacher Zhou Youyou, you wanted to see me?"

After the Ghost House experience, Fang Yuan didn't rush to leave.

That's because before picking up Magnemite, Teacher Zhou Youyou had arranged to meet him afterwards.

Upon entering the Ghost House staff rest office, Fang Yuan felt nervous.

Could it be she's actually going to ask him for compensation?

If that were true... he'd have to deduct it from Magnemite's nutritional products, which he believed Eevee would be quite happy about.

However, Teacher Zhou Youyou's first words dispelled Fang Yuan's thoughts...

"Did Eevee learn Shadow Ball during the Ghost House experience?"

"Yes."

Fang Yuan nodded.

"I see... Student Fang Yuan, can you call out Eevee so that I can see its Shadow Ball?" Teacher Zhou Youyou asked.

"...Here?" Although Fang Yuan didn't understand her intention, he had no reason to refuse.

"Yes."

Following Teacher Zhou Youyou's nod, Fang Yuan let out an "Oh," took out Eevee's Poké Ball.

A red light flashed.

Eevee appeared on the ground.

After coming out, Eevee's gaze never shifted from Teacher Zhou Youyou... It watched her with surprise, sensing some danger from the teacher.

Moreover, this feeling was extremely strong.

It was almost as if, standing in front of it, wasn't so much a human but more like a Pokémon.

Eventually, Eevee turned its attention to the ground...
