For certain foods, the significance of fire is undoubtedly extraordinary.
Even Pokemon that cannot master fire, like Pikachu, will release electricity from the electric sacs on their faces to roast Tree Fruit.
Although Ghostss had long outgrown its fondness for Tree Fruit, having tasted sweetness in flames, it could be said that flame was the most skilled ability Ghostss possessed, second only to its Ghost type moves.
"Today, I'm going to teach you how to use ice,"
"Aside from roasting, chilled Tree Fruit is also a delicacy."
Fang Yuan borrowed Researcher Han Xue's Snorunt and placed it before Glutton, who was eyeing it like it was food, causing Snorunt to cower and step back timidly.
"Damn Ghostss, don't scare my Snorunt," Researcher Han Xue shouted from a distance, seeing what was happening.
"Don't worry, it won't really eat it," Fang Yuan waved his hand dismissively.
Glutton wasn't actually aiming to eat Snorunt. In the Sun and Moon Forest Secret Territory, there were no Ice Type Pokemon, which meant that, without Ice Elves, Ghostss with the ability to use Mirror Property Moves couldn't change its attribute to become an Ice Type Ghostss.
For Glutton, this was an unfamiliar attempt.
"Eeeheeheeheehee~~" Ghostss, engaging with the power of Snorunt and using Mirror Property Moves as a medium, caused the mist around its body to churn. The next moment, it successfully reflected the opponent's Ice attribute, emitting a cold aura with its Ghost Fire turning into a chilly, cold fire.
Fang Yuan roughly understood Ghostss's mastery of the Mirror Property Moves; it could use the Mirror Property Moves to reflect the opponent's attribute for up to 69 minutes, which was its current limit.
"A flame with extremely low temperature, huh..." Fang Yuan stroked his chin, intrigued.
Since Glutton was so fond of Mirror Property Moves, Fang Yuan's direction in nurturing it would definitely align with Ghostss's own personality.
He would start by gradually exploring the Mirror Property Moves... As Fang Yuan's understanding of Glutton wasn't deep enough yet, he didn't rush to set a defined training direction for it.
The Trio Magnet Monsters were trained around "Super Electromagnetic Power," Fierce Fire Monkey around the "Iron Fist Trait," and Eevee on the main veins of "Emotion and Life Energy" with "Destruction Gene, Precognition and other abilities" as secondary veins. Looking at the training direction, Eevee was the most well-rounded, while Trio Magnet Monsters and Fierce Fire Monkey were still in the early stages.
This was also why Eevee had more trump card techniques than Trio Magnet Monsters and Fierce Fire Monkey.

Having become Ice Type, Glutton immediately mastered Ice Energy, achieving perfect chilling and swiftly cooling the Tree Fruit prepared by Fang Yuan.
Without a second word, Glutton gulped it down, its expression hesitant and serious.
The next second, it shook its head; average at best. While the taste was more unique compared to eating it directly, it lacked the impressive flavor of Life Energy or even Energy Blocks - the kind of food it definitely wouldn't bother to eat a second time.
"Okok, let's try Electric Ghost next," Fang Yuan said with a smile on his face.
When it comes to the taste of food… Glutton sure is picky. It seems I need to prepare more Energy Blocks.
While Fang Yuan was interacting with Glutton, the other three Pokemon also made their own gains.
Fierce Fire Monkey's control over fire had strengthened, and Trio Magnet Monsters had assimilated the power of the Space Magnetic Field here.
The largest gains were with Solar Spirit, whose Sunny Day had not only met the required intensity but could also be sustained for as long as two minutes.
Although it might not sound long, two minutes is more than enough for Solar Spirit's Sunny Day Move to become a core part of a team.

A battle, at its longest, lasts only for about ten to fifteen minutes. Those monsters that can fight for days and nights on end are essentially legendary Pokémon.
For new Trainers, a battle might be decided in just one or two moves, because Pokémon have limited physical strength. And for professional Trainers, their battles are not that exaggerated either; a few minutes are usually enough to resolve a fight.
Battles that last for dozens of minutes or even hours are the rarest of the rare.
...
"Strange, the energy fluctuation from Sunny Day is getting weaker. Is it because the fusion rate of the Exotic Space with Earth space is accelerating?"
In the past few days, Dr. Qin had discovered a problem: the special Sunny Day in this area was dissipating energy at a very rapid rate.
It was not like this when they first arrived.
At this rate, it wouldn't be long before this secret location would need a name change.
It wouldn't be called Sun and Moon Forest anymore, but rather just Moon Forest, as this area would be enveloped by the moonlight from the giant Moon Stone, losing the radiance of the sun.
However,
this no longer had anything to do with Fang Yuan, as he was suddenly recalled urgently by the Magic City Trainer Association.
The reason, Fang Yuan could roughly guess, must be related to Glutton.
...
Magic City University, when Fang Yuan returned here, the campus was much quieter than usual.
After coming out of the secret location, Fang Yuan immediately got a Poké Ball and captured Glutton inside it.
As for the training content of hiding in the shadows, acting as a shadow guard, Fang Yuan felt that until they had cultivated enough mutual understanding, and Glutton had evolved into Gengar, it was better not to try it rashly.
Fang Yuan was afraid of friendly fire.
"These are for you," said Teacher Tang Sheng, finding Fang Yuan shortly after he returned to Demon Capital University.
He brought a Burning Rock.
"This is the best quality Burning Rock we have in Demon Capital University. With its power, using the Sunny Day Move, both the strength and the duration can be amplified. But the specific effects will depend on how well your Pokémon can utilize it."
"Thanks a lot," Fang Yuan said with a grin, unceremoniously accepting the gift—it was indeed promised.
"In the next while, many people will probably be looking for you," Tang Sheng said after some thought.
"Looking for me? For what?" Fang Yuan asked in surprise.
"By capturing the offspring of that Pokémon, everyone will assume you've established a connection with the Millennial Spirit. Now, the allocation of resources from the Sun and Moon Forest hinges entirely on an agreement that spirit signed with the Magic City Trainer Association. The agreement can be renegotiated, meaning everyone wants to leverage your power for a better benefits distribution," Tang Sheng explained, unsure if Fang Yuan would understand all this.
Fang Yuan lazily replied, "I see..."
By winning over Fang Yuan, one could possibly gain more resources from the Sun and Moon Forest Secret Territory. Conversely, Fang Yuan too could reap immense benefits from this.
Fang Yuan smiled, but he was not interested in the slightest, not wanting to become involved. It was better to leave Magic City as soon as possible. Such matters were not something he needed to worry about.
