Chapter 9 - Living Life And Theory Crafting.

"Keep at it you've almost got it." Right now we're outside of the Pokemon center early in the morning like 7am early. I'm being trained by Crobat while Amelia is sitting down and planning they're next move. Doku or Crobat has been teaching me the move Poison Fang for a couple of days since they said that I've got some extra affinity for poison moves than normal. 

'While I've been here I've learned some common sense of this world like "Affinities". As far as I understand affinities are your potential to learn moves, to explain it in simple terms it determines how fast certain types of moves can be learned although things like a hydro pumping Charizard can't exist. Like I have a better than average poison affinity even though I've not a poison type. That does beg the question if the move sets from the games exist here, It would make sense if they did because TM's still exist here (Which I found out by using Amelia's phone).'

'I still don't exactly understand how affinities work but I'm pretty sure they also work with a Pokemon's DNA like Dratini can learn a lot of water type moves because they mostly live in water and even though it wasn't said in anything I read it probably also has to do with how much environment energy they absorb so maybe you could increase a Pokemons affinity but having it absorb the power of certain items like Mystic Water or something like that.'

'Though that's for when I can become a Human again and I don't have the money or freedom to test out random theories. This reminds me of my intern days, I don't really remember much but I loved science and biology in particular growing up.'

"Hey! Focus you've almost got the move at an acceptable level." Doku flies around me taking me out of my thoughts and reminding me of the present. Focusing and gathering the energy inside of me and focusing into my fangs I start to transition the normal energy into poison type energy.

'The weirdest thing is changing a nature of my energy since my default my energy is neutral or normal type which I suppose is easier than going from ground to fire or something like that. Though its just bringing up more theories like maybe all Pokemon absorb energy from the world itself but they only store the energy that their type is and since the normal type is neutral that means that its the easiest to change allowing normal types a wide move pool compared to other types of Pokemon.'

"I said FOCUS!" Doku bats his wings in my face telling me to focus again and this time I focus up and start to change my normal energy into poison energy finally changing my unfinished normal type Bite into the more potent Poison Fang.

Nodding Doku congratulates me while flying off towards the benches towards Amelia probably to tell her of my achievement.

'Another thing is that this a manga/anime world which means that the people here are way stronger than they should be, not like superhuman or even Ash level they have a lot more stamina and they're stronger than they should be. Combine that with how in depth the training is here I wonder why human haven't conquered the planet yet. Like Doku had be go through what could be considered military training with stamina, strength, speed and reaction training but it makes sense since the wild Pokemon work just as hard to survive like Beartics training had me throwing up everyday in the first week.'

Walking up to me Amelia kneels down to me and starts to pet my head while preesuring me with that aura of her's. "You learned Posion Fang so quickly! Good job!"

'The move I interact with her I find out something new about that aura of her's. Its definitely not something she can control and it probably correlates with her emotions since it just spiked when Doka came over to her.'

Yipping at her and nodding she then picks me up and starts to bring me to the bench she was sitting at a minute before. "OK! Zorua I'll tell you the plan right while I wasn't going to compete in the Pokemon league after I heard that you don't mind battling I thought that we might as well try it out! It'll be starting back up in another couple month or so and that means that we have a lot of time to get you and any others I catch up to the power of Doku and Jarl!"

Barking she smiles at me and continues to talk about her plan to train me by using Jarl or Mamoswine next until she puts me back in a Pokeball as another person walks up and asks her for a battle. 'It sucks that I have to hide since my technicality I'm an extinct speices and that would attract all sorts of attention. The only thing I'm worried about is getting battle experience since while I'm not pussy fighting elemental animals still is kinda scary.'

"Yeah we can have one on one battle. but I have something else to do so let's do it quickly." Both Amelia and the guy named Daniel go to the arena and begin their battle sending out Doku and a Golduck respectively.

'Yeah I can already tell this is going to be very boring.. Wait how am I gonna compete in the Pokemon League?'
