Pokemon born into a psychic family

"Student Bayne, are you interested in this Bulbasaur?"

Seeing Bruce staring at Bulbasaur without blinking, Mary gently asked. Bruce came back to his senses, shook his head, and replied, "Let's move on." Needless to say, Bulbasaur is indeed very suitable for a novice Pokémon, and after evolving into Venusaur, its strength cannot be underestimated; it can serve as the main Pokémon for a trainer.

However, its qualifications are only at the professional level and can only be counted as Normal.

The next one will surely be better. Mary nodded in understanding and then, with a smile on her face, led Bruce forward and presented the Pokémon beside her. "This is Eevee, the super popular Pokémon with multiple evolutions, perfect for a novice trainer."

Bruce stared at the creature, which had a pair of brown eyes looking back at him. It is a brown Pokémon with fluffy cream fur around its neck and tail that you can't help but want to pet, along with long, pointy ears.

Its appearance is indeed charming; no wonder Eevee is eagerly sought after by many trainers.

[Pokémon: Eevee (Normal)

Ability: Run Away

Qualification: Elite

Level: Lv4 (Novice Level)]

"Although it looks good, its aptitude isn't as good as that of the last Bulbasaur," Bruce murmured to himself, looking away.

In his view, the selection of the first Pokémon is crucial.

First, the qualifications must be high enough to favor later development and become the main Pokémon in the team.

Second, the progress speed in the initial stage shouldn't be too slow, as this would limit the initial development of the trainer. Therefore, most pseudo-legendaries cannot be selected. Pseudo-legendaries generally have a late development, slow initial growth, and lack sufficient competitiveness.

From Bruce's understanding, many aristocratic families won't let their children choose pseudo-legendaries as their first Pokémon; instead, they will opt for Pokémon with strong competitiveness in the early stages and let these later propel the first ones.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as those who have befriended pseudo-legendaries from childhood, where the chosen starter Pokémon is indeed a pseudo-legendary.

"Besides, there won't be any pseudo-legendaries here..." Bruce thought to himself. Pseudo-legendaries are priceless in the market, and their numbers are scarce, making it impossible for them to appear in the Pokémon Breeder Center.

As his thoughts raced, Mary continued presenting other Pokémon to Bruce. "This is Houndour, a Pokémon that lives in groups; it's good at teamwork and is very loyal to its trainer."

Looking around, Bruce saw several dogs with different aptitudes, ranging from upper-level to gym level. For common trainers, gym-level qualifications are already good, but Bruce still felt dissatisfied. As a descendant of the Elite, isn't it too much to ask for the starter Pokémon to be at least Elite level?

"This is Elekid..."

Gym-level potential...

"This is Turtwig..."

Master title!

The two walked on, gradually leaving the grassland area and arriving in the forest zone. Dozens of tall, leafy trees, like silent and loyal guards, had been here for decades, watching trainers come and go. In the vast forest, all kinds of Pokémon inhabit.

After a while, a small monkey covered in orange fur came into view. It had large ears, a swirl mark on its chest, and a flame burning on its behind. [Pokémon: Chimchar (Fire)

Ability: Blaze

Qualification: Elite

Level: Lv4 (Novice Level)]

Elite qualification! Looking at the small Chimchar lying on the rock before him, Bruce felt invigorated and stared intently. However, in response to Bruce's intense gaze, the little Chimchar merely lifted its eyelids slightly, then slapped away a fly, changed its position, and continued to lie down.

Mary, who was beside him, probably saw Bruce's thoughts and explained softly, "Student Bayne, this little Chimchar isn't suitable for a novice trainer."

Encountering Bruce's slightly puzzled look, Mary elaborated: "According to our long-term observations, this little Chimchar lacks fighting spirit and desire to battle." Bruce suddenly nodded, understanding what Mary meant.

Little Chimchars are usually full of energy and fighting spirit, but to change this little Chimchar, whose personality is completely different from its kind, would require the help of a superior trainer or a master breeder.

In that case, the cost would be too high. Ultimately, this isn't really a Pokémon for novices. Bruce averted his gaze slightly regretfully and said, "Let's keep walking." There's no way a little Chimchar that has lost its fighting spirit can even activate the ability [Blaze], making it worthless.

For the next half hour, Bruce came across another Pokémon of elite level: Slakoth, feeling a chill he couldn't quite understand.

There's no doubt that Slakoth's final form, Slaking, is powerful, rivaling ordinary pseudo-legendaries.

It was only Slaking's ability [Truant] that prevented Bruce from conquering Slakoth in the end. "What a pity you came a few days late. There were several Pokémon with good qualifications that have already been taken." Seeing that Bruce hadn't found a satisfactory Pokémon for a long time, Mary said.

"It's alright," Bruce replied, waving his hand. Boom!

Suddenly, a strange sound echoed not far away, and Bruce followed the sound. Mary frowned slightly and looked at him with a slightly strange expression. The two hurried toward the source of the noise, and after a while, a wide open space appeared before them, surrounded by tall, straight trees, with sunlight unevenly spreading on the ground through the gaps in the foliage. In the open space before him lay a handsome boy, rubbing his sore backside.

Bruce was momentarily stunned, then focused his eyes on the charming Pokémon standing in front of the boy.

It was an orange Pokémon, resembling a chick, covered in feathers and with two tiny wings.

[Pokémon: Torchic (Fire)

Ability: Speed Boost

Qualification: Champion

Level: Lv7 (Novice Level)]

Champion level! Speed Boost ability! Looking at these two lines of information, Bruce's pupils constricted, and then he stared intently at the Torchic that remained silent in place.

"This kid is misbehaving again..." Mary beside him suddenly sighed and said slowly, "This kid has good aptitude and a strong desire to fight. He fought against all the Pokémon around him." "Many trainers saw his potential and wanted to dominate him. As a result, this kid had to let the trainer battle against him and defeat him before he could be dominated." No wonder this Torchic hasn't been captured yet.

Those who come to the Pokémon Breeder Center are all freshly graduated high school students. They have average physiques and don't master battle skills. Without other Pokémon, it's impossible to defeat the novice-level Torchic. "Let me give it a try." Bruce said.
