Pokemon: The Breeding House

Heart Lake?

Looking at this description, wouldn't this lake be a dedicated training ground for Water, Dragon, and Psychic-type Pokémon?

"Within a radius of 1000 meters, immune to natural disasters"

This was also a very good ability.

It was just a pity that in the mild climate of the Hoenn region, it didn't have much use. Moreover, Autumn Leaf Town was inland and wouldn't be affected by natural disasters like tsunamis or storms.

However, it wasn't completely useless.

Because Carver suddenly thought that when the plot triggered in the future, when the Land God Groudon and Sea God Kyogre awakened, violent storms and scorching sun would engulf the entire Hoenn region.

That day would probably be when this Soul Dew truly came into play.

Currently, the Soul Dew's greatest use was to accelerate training efficiency for Dragon, Water, and Psychic-type Pokémon in the breeding house.

The principle was probably similar to same-type Pokémon being in areas rich with their attributes. For example, Growlithe training in a fire-rich volcano would achieve twice the results with half the effort.

The Soul Dew condensed the pure Dragon and Psychic power of a departed Latias or Latios, plus naturally formed Water power.

Just like Arceus's creation plates fused into Life Orb, the three powers combined could directly create a perfect training ground suitable for these three types of Pokémon.

Among all the Pokémon in the breeding house, there happened to be one that could use it.

Bagon.

But there was another problem—Bagon couldn't swim. It couldn't exactly train by diving underwater, right?

Carver's brain spun rapidly.

A training method for a Pokémon called Urshifu quickly surfaced in his mind.

Urshifu had two forms: Single Strike Style and Rapid Strike Style.

Rapid Strike Style Urshifu was inspired by rivers that were sometimes turbulent and sometimes calm, creating a form of Fighting-type moves. In battle, it would block opponents with flowing water-like movements, then use wave-like consecutive attacks to defeat them.

This Pokémon's training method was through meditation in rivers, under waterfalls.

This was called the Waterfall Training Method.

Using the water flow's impact from top to bottom to hammer the body, after thousands of tempering, forging a strong physique.

Similarly, Bagon could also use this method for training.

Unfortunately, there were no cliffs in the breeding house suitable for building a waterfall.

Artificial construction would be a major project.

And if he asked Pokémon to build it...

The only Pokémon with such ability was probably the Land God Groudon alone.

One Precipice Blades could create a cliff, then placing the Soul Dew on the cliff would continuously gush clear springs, gathering into a waterfall.

Ask Groudon for help?

That was absolutely impossible.

In that case, it could only be built artificially.

The current breeding house environment wasn't perfect.

Carver's ideal breeding house should be similar to the Terrarium in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

With a huge glass dome outside, simulating different environments for different types of Pokémon to live in, with controllable temperature and weather.

The scale didn't need to be that large—just reaching normal ecological park size would suffice.

But such ecological parks were expensive, not something he could currently afford.

Out of curiosity, Carver made a special phone call to inquire, then learned that such ecological parks cost tens of millions.

Sigh, the road ahead was long and arduous!

But it was fine. They could continue working hard. Someday they would be able to build a perfect ecological park!

Latias and Latios had left. News transmission took time, and there was no movement from Swellow's side for now.

Carver opened the breeding house's front door and began normal business operations.

However, before officially starting business, he found Bagon and explained the wonders of this Heart Lake.

"From now on, you can try meditating and training in here. This lake water contains magical energy that perfectly matches your attributes and can greatly enhance your training effectiveness," Carver said.

Triple enhancement—this was truly far beyond previous effects!

Combined with the Exp. Share, couldn't Pokémon directly gain triple experience?

Unfortunately, this combination effect only worked for Dragon, Water, and Psychic-type Pokémon.

"Bagon..."

Actually, Bagon didn't like water.

It stared at the lake before it. After hearing that the lake water would help its training, it immediately decided to train here from now on.

As for the training method...

Carver adopted the most direct approach.

He had Bagon wear the Exp. Share and soak in the lake water.

Growlithe would battle with Bewear, combining the effects of the Exp. Share and Soul Dew through this method.

Compared to sparring, Bewear's battles were more like instructional battles.

Being guided by such a powerful Pokémon, Growlithe could also gain considerable battle experience.

All in all, it was very good.

Carver looked at this scene with satisfaction.

After confirming that several Pokémon's training had all gotten on the right track, he turned around, returned to the breeding house, and sat behind the counter reading a book with nothing else to do.

The TV in the main hall was broadcasting a news report.

"...Citizens, spring is about to end, and the hot summer is approaching. In this hot season, if any travelers wish to go on trips, please take care of your luggage and Pokémon during travel to prevent loss. If such situations occur, please contact the nearest police station, and the local Officer Jenny will do her best to serve you."

"Hmm?" Hearing this news, Carver paused slightly.

Summer was coming soon?

No wonder he'd been feeling the weather getting hotter and hotter lately.

Counting the time, without realizing it, he'd been in this world for nearly three months.

Time really flew!

However, not having air conditioning in the breeding house was a big problem.

He'd easily be too hot to sleep at night.

Thinking this, that afternoon, Carver ordered several air conditioners from town.

Installation technicians quickly came to install the air conditioners.

The afternoon sunlight was very strong. Running around outside would make you sweaty and hot.

Once the air conditioning in the main hall was turned on, Carver's Pokémon all gathered in front of the air conditioner, enjoying the cool breeze from the vents.

"Clefairy~!"

So comfortable!

Seeing this scene, Carver couldn't help but laugh: "Don't get too close, or you'll easily catch cold. If you're sweating, I'll give you all baths after work and you'll feel comfortable."

"Clefairy~!"

"Chingling~!"

"Gastly!"

The group of Pokémon all agreed, then obediently stepped back a bit, happily enjoying the air conditioning.

Outside, the sunlight was just right, the breeze was mild, and the days seemed so peaceful and warm.
