Treadmill and Lucky Money Bringer
The speed training Uncle Shan was talking about was the very traditional kind.
This speed didn't include reaction speed or energy gathering speed. To put it simply... the ultimate goal of the training was to run fast! Very fast! Extremely fast!
Uncle Shan's intention was clear after saying so much to Fang Yuan and Eevee.
He planned to have Fang Yuan and Eevee start speed training together from today.
Why did he say Fang Yuan and Eevee together...
"I have to too?"
"Yes, you and Eevee run together, encourage each other, and supervise each other," Uncle Shan said.
"But your method of speed training is too intimate..."
Fang Yuan pointed to the two treadmills in front of him, almost choking.
"Don't underestimate our club's treadmills. They are training equipment specially designed for different types of Pokémon. They have been improved in terms of speed, slope, and intensity. Even if your Eevee uses moves like Quick Attack and Agility to burst out at a faster speed on it, this treadmill can handle it."
"Oh..."
At the same time.
Eevee blinked its eyes. It was the first time it had seen equipment like a treadmill.
"Eevee..."
How can this kind of thing train speed?
As if seeing Eevee's doubts, Uncle Shan pushed Fang Yuan and said, "You demonstrate it to Eevee."
"Okay." Fang Yuan was about to go up, but immediately stopped and said, "Do Eevee and I use the same model?"
"What can be used for Pokémon can be used for people, just set it up."
"That makes sense, I can't keep up with the speed of Quick Attack..." Fang Yuan felt a little more at ease.
Of course, Fang Yuan knew how to use a treadmill. Even if he didn't, there were instructions written on it. He just needed to be able to read.
Speaking of reading, Fang Yuan remembered something...
He forgot to teach Eevee to read! He had promised to let Eevee write his Chinese homework! "Eevee, watch carefully."
Fang Yuan pressed the start button, and the treadmill started running slowly. Eevee looked curiously at Fang Yuan's feet, revealing an expression of so that's how it is.
"Eevee!"
A mere treadmill is nothing more than this.
"It seems Eevee understands, so let's end the demonstration here." Uncle Shan nodded and said to Fang Yuan, "By the way, pay attention when you run, remember to warm up your body in advance, and don't compare speed with Eevee..."
"Understood." Fang Yuan nodded.
"But can this thing really unlock the effect of the Sand Scale Fruit..."
"Of course." Uncle Shan said, "Next, I'll talk about how to enter the Pokémon's detailed data."
"Let's take Eevee as an example, height 0.3m, weight 6.5kg... and then the Quick Attack move..."
Under Uncle Shan's instruction, Fang Yuan learned how to adjust the treadmill according to the type of Pokémon. After setting it up, Eevee personally stepped onto it, intending to give it a try.
Compared to Eevee's size, the treadmill was indeed a bit large...
But none of that mattered.
"Let's start," Fang Yuan reminded. The treadmill started running, initially at a very slow speed, so Eevee felt very relaxed, almost like taking a stroll.
Seeing Eevee's leisurely expression, Fang Yuan increased the speed.
+1+1+1+1+1 Eevee's expression gradually changed from leisurely to serious.
+1+1 Finally, it started running earnestly.
+1 "Eevee!" Eevee gritted its teeth.
+1 Eevee: (dish)
+1 Then, Eevee finally couldn't hold on any longer. Its body was enveloped in a white light, and it used the Quick Attack move, which gradually allowed it to adapt to the speed of the treadmill.
"It seems you've completely mastered it. That's right, speed training should focus on Quick Attack. Speed-type moves can more quickly unlock Eevee's speed potential. Of course, it will also consume more energy, so you can go to the Star Glory Battle Club and get some Berries to replenish stamina and energy, but... you'll have to pay for it yourself," Uncle Shan said.
Fang Yuan nodded.
"One more thing, just like with the Bite special training, speed training should also be done in moderation. Don't forget that it's just one of your tasks, and you may have work coming your way at any time."
After Fang Yuan thanked him, Uncle Shan left.
Fang Yuan and Eevee were left staring at each other.
Eevee was still running, and Fang Yuan was watching it run. After a while, seeing that Eevee was about to lose its Quick Attack, Fang Yuan immediately pressed stop.
"It can last this long, huh..."
"Keep it up, Eevee, I haven't even adjusted the incline yet."
"Eevee..." Eevee panted, pointing at the treadmill next to it, signaling Fang Yuan to run on it himself.
"Eevee!" It emphasized again.
"..." Fang Yuan.
"Eevee!"
"You want to compete with me?" Fang Yuan's face darkened. He surprisingly understood, but damn it, he definitely wasn't a match for Eevee.
"Eevee??!"
"Fine, let's compete, who's afraid of who."
After an unknown amount of time...
Looking at Fang Yuan, who was covered in sweat, panting rapidly, and so exhausted that he looked like a dead dog, having taken the initiative to admit defeat, Eevee happily laughed.
Good and evil will be repaid in the end, and the way of heaven is a cycle. If you don't believe it, look up, heaven never spares anyone.
...
Running, getting beaten up, and playing in the sand became Eevee's daily routine.
During this time, Eevee was very tired and had suffered a lot, so Fang Yuan tried his best to make it happy every day.
The most effective method was to improve its diet.
Fang Yuan had a little more money on hand recently.
Because from the third day on, Fang Yuan had a stable sparring job.
"Coming again today?"
"Yes!"
At the Star Glory Battle Club, in the battle room, Liu Le and Snorlax looked at Fang Yuan and Eevee, unconvinced, and said, "I must beat you today."
"What's the big deal?"
"A mortal enemy!"
Liu Le wiped away tears. Who would have thought that his father would come up with such a bad idea, using his Lucky Money to send him to the Star Glory Battle Club.
As long as Liu Le couldn't defeat Fang Yuan for a day, his Lucky Money wouldn't belong to him for a day, until his savings ran out.
The key was that Liu Le couldn't reasonably resist, and Father Liu would always use the excuse that "the other party and you are both new Trainers" to lecture him, making Liu Le feel ashamed.
"The Lucky Money I used to buy snacks and play games can now only be used for battles and training. I hate it," Liu Le roared inwardly.
The next moment, Snorlax unexpectedly fell in front of Eevee again.
"There's progress, maybe you'll win after a few more tries," Fang Yuan said with a smile.
"I'll be back tomorrow!" Liu Le said nothing, recalled Snorlax, and left.
Fang Yuan was silent, watching the little fatty leave calmly, feeling a little emotional.
In the battle with Liu Le, he and Eevee had taken seriousness, caution, ruthlessness, and unscrupulousness to the extreme. Even in the face of the little fatty's pleas, they refused to give in at all, just to make the little fatty recognize himself, be down-to-earth, and keep working hard...
"It's so good to be able to earn money every day."
"Eevee, Eevee." Eevee nodded and began to think about what to eat today.
