Hearing the system's voice, Julian focused his attention on the reward, the small amount of aptitude-enhancing potion.
If the dedication of Trainer determines the minimum growth limit of Pokémon, then Pokémon's own aptitude determines its upper growth limit.
If a Pokémon only has green qualifications, then it can only become a pseudo-Elite at the highest and it will never become an Elite. This is an iron law and so far no Pokémon has broken the limit that its own qualifications can achieve.
To become an Elite, you must have the qualifications of cyan and above.
Riolu's aptitude is cyan. If there is no treasure to improve its aptitude, then even if it is fed with a mountain of resources, it will not be able to break through from Elite to pseudo-champion.
For example, Metang was blue during Beldum and as it evolved into Metang, this blue aptitude became deeper.
Aptitude can be improved with evolution but whether it can break through its own aptitude depends on the potential of Pokémon itself and the resources invested by Trainer.
A small Elixir of Eligibility is not enough to change Riolu's talent from cyan to blue.
However, Julian is not in a hurry, even if there is no qualification medicine provided by the system, he has other ways to improve Riolu's qualifications.
Riolu is still young and is not in a hurry.
"how do you feel"
Riolu showed a very comfortable expression.
It seems to feel the invisible shackles in its body and it seems that there are some cracks.
The products produced by the system have no side effects and are absolutely safe, healthy and pollution-free products, which Julian is very reassured about.
It is for this reason that Julian prefers to use systematic drugs to improve the five basic stats of Pokémon.
After taking a small amount of aptitude-enhancing potion, Riolu's aptitude not only improved from cyan to light blue but also changed from level 17 to 18.
"You're about to catch up with Metang," Julian exclaimed.
Metang is only level 20, Riolu is a month behind but is now only two levels apart.
This is not because Julian prefers Riolu so he leveled him up faster but because Metang is a Pseudo legendary, his upgrade is slower than Normal Pokémon.
This is the same with other Pseudo legendary Pokémon.
The Pseudo legendary Pokémon is synonymous with power and this power requires the Trainer to spend countless resources, time and energy in exchange for it.
If you are an ordinary person, even if you are given a Dratini, you will not be able to support it. It will only drag you down.
For a normal Pokémon, it takes about half a year to upgrade from level 1 to level 30, while a Pseudo legendary takes about a year and it takes even more time to evolve to the final evolutionary stage.
While thinking about it, Will walked over in dismay and his face was scratched.
Judging from his expression and appearance, he knew that he must have lost the battle. Julian hadn't even bother to ask what the result was but the other party had already said it himself.
"That kid actually used electric type, second Pokémon was Magnemite"
His Pidgey's level is not high and against the type restrained Magnemite.
During school, the most common sentence teachers say is "specialize in type"
It means specializing in an Attribute and it is possible that you will become a pseudo-Elite or even an Elite.
This is indeed very reasonable. Human energy is limited and there will be more commonality between it and Attribute.
Of course, this does not mean that multi-type or full-typing is bad. On the contrary, as long as it is successful, they are more powerful than single attribute.
However, neither the school nor the elders at home will basically agree with you to go to multiple or the full types, at least in the early stage, it is absolutely not supported.
If you want to go multi and full type, first you have to be good in a single type. If you can't become an excellent trainer even when you specialize in one department, but you still want to be multi and full-type. That's just fooling yourself.
Therefore, in the school, the students who become Rookie Trainers have already thought about the Attributes they want to specialize in.
Julian's previous Rival Han was of water type, while Will's Rival was of electric type.
As for Julian , it is the steel system.
"If only I could use Charmander." Will was obviously a little indignant about his failure.
New Trainers Covet every victory.
"Oh, so you look down on us steel types," Julian said with half-squinted eyes.
Magnemite's second Attribute is steel and his father's second team also has a Magnezone, an extremely powerful Pokémon.
"Hahaha, how come, I just think that kid is the bad one"
Will let out a laugh, then changed the subject and said, "Come with me to Lake West Street this weekend."
Lake West Street, also known as the black market, is only opened on weekends. There are a large number of illegal props, treasures, Pokémon, etc., and many of the people inside are wanted criminals on the run.
Will is just an ordinary high school student. If he enters the black market alone, even his Pokémon may be taken away.
People who do not have certain ability and enter the black market will definitely be delivering themselves.
"What will you do there?"
"Buy props for Charmander and Pidgey and see if there are any suitable ones. The things in the black market are cheaper than those in the shops outside," Will said.
His family's wealth was almost spent on Charmander and he didn't want to continue to embarrass his parents.
Because of the unknown origin of black market items, the prices are indeed much cheaper than those sold in stores but the quality is also uneven and you may buy defective or fake products.
"You won't dare to go alone!"
"You are so f*****g annoying when you talk - if I dared to go alone, why would I ask you to do it?" Will said in a panic.
Why didn't I know that this guy's mouth was so poisonous.
"Okay, wait for me on West Street at ten o'clock." Julian nodded.
