New Move
The third day after returning to Hometown.
Eevee finally overcame all difficulties and was able to seriously engage in special training.
However, whenever Eevee thought about being punished by Fang Yuan with a week of no drama, it felt an inexplicable sadness.
Only when you lose it do you realize how good it was...
Eevee expressed that it wanted to watch dramas! Preferably wrapped in a Silk Scarf, comfortably lying in bed, and binge-watching with its phone, even if it was only for two hours a day.
Fang Yuan simply hadn't anticipated... that his plan to cultivate Eevee's interest in battles through exposure would backfire so quickly.
Although Eevee was indeed somewhat influenced and developed a desire to become stronger, it mainly brought it another interest...
Whether it was movies, anime, TV series, or reviews of some competitions, it welcomed them all and fell in love with the feeling of watching a story through a screen.
Perhaps not wanting to haggle with Fang Yuan, on the fourth day, Eevee, unable to watch dramas, almost turned grief into motivation and trained even more seriously.
Perhaps more importantly, Eevee didn't want Fang Yuan to go hungry again because of its laziness.
Therefore, the training effect that day was much better than yesterday. Without using the Tackle New Move to gain explosive power, Eevee was not only able to dash through the Dense Forest more skillfully, but its speed also almost reached its normal limit.
Also, because it had achieved some results in training, Eevee suddenly became less afraid of training.
At this time, its gaze towards the Dense Forest was the same as when it saw the Sandshrew's work on the beach, filled only with competitiveness.
Free from the influence of the Anticipation Ability on its personality and mentality, Eevee returned to the familiar appearance Fang Yuan knew. It was still that competitive little Eevee.
That day, they went to the Pokémon Center as usual, and finally left under the strange gaze of the intern Female Nurse.
The fifth day.
Fang Yuan said to Eevee, "Next, we'll start training Quick Attack."
"Eevee!" Eevee said confidently, although it hadn't figured out what Fang Yuan was talking about.
"You experienced the Tackle New Move the day before yesterday, right?"
Eevee nodded.
At that time, Eevee's movements were timid, and it didn't dare to sprint at high speed in the Dense Forest, so Fang Yuan simply had it start with Tackle, and then didn't allow it to slow down, so it was very difficult for Eevee to stop.
Facts proved that this was indeed effective, and Eevee was hit very hard.
However, after Eevee's mentality changed, they no longer used this method, and restarted the initial training content, letting Eevee perform ordinary sprints, after all, training should also be gradual.
"If Tackle just gives you an explosive force at the start, making you speed up in a short time to hit the target, then Quick Attack is to let you continuously use Tackle to attack the target at a very fast speed," Fang Yuan explained bluntly.
"Quick Attack has higher requirements for your stamina, body strength, explosive power, and coordination ability, but once you master this New Move, you can use it to gain faster movement speed."
Eevee understood a little.
"So next, we have to redo the training content from the day before yesterday, using Tackle continuously in the Dense Forest to sprint and run, while avoiding obstacles. If you can gradually adapt to it, then you won't be far from learning Quick Attack," Fang Yuan said.
In such a dense place... using Tackle all the time?!
Even though Eevee was mentally prepared, it was still taken aback, and then looked at Fang Yuan with a suspicious gaze.
"Cough... what kind of look is that you're giving me!"
Fang Yuan's face flushed red. Although the Quick Attack special training method was something he had summarized himself, it was absolutely reliable.
"Eevee." Eevee turned its head, revealing an expression that seemed to say, I'll trust you this time, and ran to the White Line.
During the special training on the fourth day, which was yesterday, Eevee could already smoothly traverse the Dense Forest at a normal speed. Now, it wanted to try and break its own limits, completing the course at an even faster speed.
With Fang Yuan's command, Eevee's body was enveloped in white light, transforming into a white shadow as it dashed out. After about a few seconds, the white light dissipated, a sign that the energy had dispersed. From this, it could be seen that if it were in a battle, Eevee's Tackle could only be used to attack opponents at close range. If the opponent was too far away, the Tackle would fail before it even reached the target.
After a while, Fang Yuan stopped timing.
Eevee had failed.
The energy of the Tackle dissipated, and it immediately gathered energy again to use Tackle. In this way, Eevee could continuously burst out with power to sprint. However, Eevee clearly couldn't control the speed of this sprint well. Before long, it crashed into a Tree, just like on the third day.
Fortunately, after two days of training, Eevee was no longer the crybaby it used to be. After getting up from the ground, Eevee simply shook off the dust on its body and started running again. Its physical strength had increased a lot compared to the beginning.
Sure enough, thick skin is made from being beaten...
Since it needed to use the New Move back and forth, Eevee's consumption was unusually high. Therefore, this special training couldn't be carried out all day. The process of learning a New Move was difficult, and Fang Yuan wasn't impatient for quick results. After trying once, he would have Eevee switch to ordinary physical training or rest.
Such special training lasted for about another three days.
On the seventh day that they came to this Dense Forest to carry out special training, Eevee finally had a significant change.
Its control over energy had reached a new level, and the physical strength it had developed was enough to allow it to maintain high-speed movement for a longer period of time. The experience accumulated from hitting tree trunks hundreds of times had also made Eevee more proficient in the Tackle Move, and it was no longer so difficult to control the explosive force brought by Tackle.
The only thing lacking was coordination ability.
However, this could no longer stop Eevee from learning Quick Attack.
After enough accumulation, Eevee naturally integrated the results of the special training, completing the Quick Attack special training. Watching Eevee, whose whole body was filled with white light, constantly running easily in the open space, Fang Yuan almost shed tears.
It was simply not easy. Learning Quick Attack was much more difficult than Sand Attack. The understanding of the Sand Attack Move might have had an element of coincidence, but the Quick Attack Move could be said to have been exchanged for Eevee's sweat, one footprint at a time.
After Eevee finished demonstrating, Fang Yuan picked it up and said the words that had moved Eevee the most in the past few days.
"From tonight onwards, I'll allow you to watch two hours of phone..."
Eevee: (ω), that's what I was waiting for.
Looking at Eevee's expression, Fang Yuan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say exactly what it was, so he could only scratch his head in confusion.
"Also, to celebrate, let's end today's special training here."
Fang Yuan laughed. Everything was going smoothly. If this momentum continued, the Little Phoenix King Cup was within reach.
