Chapter 29: Munchlax
"It's so luxurious…I just don't know how much I'll be paid."
Fang Yuan looked around and found that there were many battlefields built just outside, and there were even separate battle rooms inside.
He estimated that the money needed to maintain the battlefield alone would cost a pile a month.
"Vee!"
Eevee also understood that if Fang Yuan has money, then that means it has money and would be able to drink more high-end berry milk.
"You are Fang Yuan, right?"
They didn’t have to wait for too long in the hall, Fang Yuan saw a strange middle-aged man coming from the corner and greeted him.
"I am."
"I won't say any polite words. You are the person introduced by Yang Han. Although he guaranteed for you, we still have to test your true ability. After all, our Xingyao Battle Club is not a charity."
"So, next you follow me, and I will take you to a battle. Your opponent is also a rookie trainer. If you win, you can stay as a sparring partner. If you lose, after receiving today's pay, quit this job." Mr. Shan Mi said.
"But you don't have to worry about personal guidance. That is what I promised to Yang Han. I will do my best to help you."
Hearing this, Fang Yuan nodded and felt bitter in his heart.
It seems that the friendship between old Yang and this Mr. Shan Mi was not as deep as he imagined. Whether he could get this part-time job or not depends on whether he has real skills.
From the other party’s words, Fang Yuan got some information. His next opponent was also a rookie trainer. Since they were both new trainers, Fang Yuan doesn’t need to be afraid. As long as he doesn’t encounter Psychic or Ghost-type pokemon, Eevee has a great advantage because of the special training.
"The momentum is good." After seeing Fang Yuan and Eevee's expression, Mr. Shan Mi smiled slightly: "It seems that Yang Han still has some eyesight. Let's go, come with me, I'll tell you first about the opponent's information."
"He is a student of Pingcheng No. 1 High School just like you. His beginner Pokemon is a Munchlax. The fat of that Pokemon is amazing, and ordinary attacks are not effective at all. With that Munchlax, your opponent has easily won 19 consecutive victories on the public battlefield. Of course, his opponents were also rookie trainers at the same age, so you don't need to be too nervous."
Munchlax?
Listening to Mr. Shan Mi's reminder along the way, Fang Yuan's mind changed, and sighed.
Sure enough, those who could come to Xingyao battle club to play were all local tyrants.
Munchlax was known as the big stomach king of Pokemon, even on the first day of its birth, it needs to eat nearly a hundred kilograms of food.
You could feed cheap crops like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn…
But if you provide a large amount of nutritious food, it will be terrifying. Few families could raise it unless they have mines.
To keep up with food, nutrition, and the development speed of the Munchlax was a real nightmare for most newcomer trainers. However, its thick layer of fat alone was enough to block the power of many moves.
It was not surprising that such a Pokemon could win 19 consecutive victories.
But as strong as they sound, Muchnlax also has a drawback, it was slow in action.
So Fang Yuan was not worried.
"It's good to play to one's strength."
After following Mr. Shan Mi into a separate battle room, Fang Yuan already had a strategy.
Stepping into the battlefield, Fang Yuan's heart became unconsciously excited. This should be the first formal battle for him and Eevee. There was no tension, only expectation, although they have experienced several battles in the secret realm, it couldn’t be compared with field battles and regular battles.
"My name is Liu Le."
After seeing Fang Yuan coming in, the little fat man introduced himself first. He had a strong aura and seemed very confident. The advantage of Munchlax pokemon was indeed very big for the newcomer trainer, which has also formed Liu Le's indifferent attitude.
"My name is Fang Yuan, and will be your next opponent."
Looking at Liu Le, who was full of fat, Fang Yuan silently thought in his heart, it’s nice to have money…
"Your Eevee is very cute." Liu Le smiled and didn’t care much about Fang Yuan.
"Vee…" Eevee nodded proudly.
Fang Yuan: "…"
Idiot, the opponent is mocking you for being harmless.
Fang Yuan decided to give his language homework to Eevee to complete so that in the future Eevee would not mistake in understanding words and create mishap
Mr. Shan Mi smiled and clapped his hands, interrupting the two who introduced each other, and said: "Friendship is the first, and the battle is second."
"We'll be watching from up there. Have a good time."
Fang Yuan just found out that a middle-aged man was sitting in the audience seat. Judging from his body size…it seemed to be Liu Le's father?
After the referee came in, Fang Yuan and Liu Le walked to both sides of the battlefield and waited for the referee's instructions.
"The battlefield is a normal field. The rule is 1vs1. Now please send out the Pokemon together."
"Eevee, go."
After the referee's announcement, Eevee jumped straight down from Fang Yuan's shoulder and looked curiously at the Pokeball in Liu Le's hand.
"I'll leave it to you, Munchlax, it's the same as before. If you win the battle, you will be rewarded with a luxurious meal."
After saying that, Liu Le threw out his Pokeball hard, the red light flashed, and the Pokeball bounced back, but this guy happened to catch it in a hurry, so he didn’t look cool.
Muhcnlax has dark blue skin and a small fleshy white belly. Its big round eyes were showing the light of desire at this time.
"Lax!"
After hearing the promise of a big meal from its trainer, the Munchlax stared at Eevee with scorching eyes.
It was not known what Eevee was thinking, but suddenly it turned its head and looked at Fang Yuan.
Looking at Eevee who stared at him for a while and turned back, Fang Yuan felt heartache.
This little bastard… I'm afraid it also wants to eat a big meal.
After the battle started, Liu Le immediately issued an order: "Use Defence Curl."
Defence Curl: Curls up to conceal weak spots and raise Defense.
This trick made Munchlax curled up into a ball…
"Hahaha, your kid is interesting. Is he planning to adopt passive defensive tactics?"
In the audience seat, Shan Mi smiled. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that this Munchlax has amazing defensive power, and has eaten a lot of high-nutrient food.
"This is purely a passive challenge." Liu Le’s father shook his head.
"Let’s see how Fang Yuan can crack this. It is reasonable to say that with Eevee's attack methods, it will be difficult to harm the Munchlax. It is going to be a tough fight for him." Shan Mi looked at Fang Yuan and Eevee again.
Yang Han asked him to guide Fang Yuan, he didn't know where to start to guide, maybe he could observe something from this battle.
