Pokémon: Kirlia

LV: 27

Type: Psychic / Fairy

Abilities: Telepathy

Gender: Female

Potential: Shallow Gold

- Growl, Confusion, Double Team, Teleport, Disarming Voice, Lucky Chant, Magical Leaf, Heal Pulse, Draining Kiss

--------------------------------------------------

Kirlia's evolution was a great success. Not only was Kirlia able to increase her potential, but she also got two optimal Innate Talent moves.

Having Calm Mind as an Innate Talent is like winning the jackpot. It's like Scizor gets Sword Dance as an Innate Talent move. As soon as this move reaches the Expert rank, Ralts's Sp. Stats will increase considerably.

Dazzling Gleam is also a great move to have as an Innate Talent move. Not only does the move have a good attack power, but it also has a wide attack range. This move is much better in this world than in the game. With this wide attack range, Kirlia can not only hit several enemies at once but also make it difficult for an individual enemy to evade the attack.

Alex's original plan was to use Ditto as his third Pokémon at the Kanto Rookie tournament. But after Kirlia got so strong, he decided to make her the third member of the team.

From the 16th onwards, there will be 3 v/s 3 Pokémon format battles at the Kanto Rookie tournament. Ditto was Alex's third choice before Ralts's evolution. Ditto is not very strong in 1 v/s 1, but Alex didn't have many other options.

Alex, who now has 3 Shallow Gold at a relatively high level, felt the confidence to perform well in this tournament. He also had 17 days to train his Pokémon. He estimated that his team would have two Pokémon of at least LV 35 and one Pokémon of LV 30.

While walking up the cave, Alex thought about which moves Kirlia should train.

After Alex and his Pokémon walked down the main tunnel for 1 hour, Crobat suddenly yelled, "Two people are coming our way from this branch."

Alex looked curiously towards the branch tunnel to see which trainer dared to walk from there.

Usually, only very strong trainers or very courageous trainers dare to enter the branch tunnels.

After 20 seconds, a man in his 30s and a young man (the same age as Alex) came out from the branch tunnel.

The man had a cold expression as he walked next to the young man like a bodyguard. Next to this one was a Machamp who protected him and the young man.

The young man next to the man had light blue hair and a friendly expression on his face. Next to this young man was a Silver Metang.

Alex looked at the info of two Pokémon.

--------------------------------------------------

Alex, who saw the potential of Metang, couldn't help but be jealous. It was already a Shallow Diamond and still had one evolution left. With the money that Steven has, he can definitely find items that can improve his potential to evolve. So this Metang was bound to become a Diamond Pokémon in the future.

He thought, "Is this the strength of the strongest Pokémon from the future champ?"

But Alex wasn't the only one who admired the Pokémon in front of him. Steven, who entered the Main Tunnel, saw a Shieldon that aroused his interest.

Steven, who is very interested in Rock and Steel-type Pokémon, couldn't help but look in the direction of this Shieldon. He's seen a lot of Shieldon, but none of them were this impressive.

He had a lot of experience with Rock and Steel-type Pokémon and was always relatively good at assessing the potential of such Pokémon (roughly). According to his assessment, this Shieldon had outstanding potential. And with the right training, it can even join his main team (top 6).

Steven looked at Alex's other Pokémon and saw another Pokémon who he thought had high potential, Scizor. Although it had worse potential than Shieldon, it was still a Pokémon that most trainers would never own.

He looked at Alex's other Pokémon but couldn't tell if these Pokémon had good potential, but he didn't think that these Pokémon had a much worse potential than the other two.

Steven looked at Alex and realized that he was the same age as him. He was a bit surprised that a trainer his age had so many good Pokémon. Especially when Alex does not come from a prosperous family. Steven knows all trainers in the same generation, and Alex was not from an upper-class family in Kanto. So Alex was probably a civilian trainer.

Steven was very impressed by this. As a good businessman, he likes to make friends with other talented trainers. He calls it a potential investment.

Steven walked towards Alex and said with a smile, "Hello, friend. I just happened to see your Pokémon, and I have to say that I'm very impressed. I have a Pokémon that has a similar LV to your Shieldon, and I wanted to ask if you are interested in a 1 v/s 1 match."

Alex looked at Steven's radiant face with a bit of a surprise.

"Why is Steven talking to me? Has he seen Shieldon's potential? Is this Steven as nice a person as he is in the games? Hmm... He probably saw Shieldon's potential and sees me as a trainer with good potential, so that he wants to have a match with me to have a connection. He is indeed a businessman's son."

After thinking about it a bit, Alex agreed to Steven's request. Shieldon can benefit hugely from fighting a Pokémon owned by Steven. And Alex can also use this chance to try to make friends with Steven. Apart from the fact that Steven has a good character and would probably not betray Alex, having Steven as a friend will bring Alex many advantages.

AUTHOR's THOUGHT-----------------------------------------------------------

I have now divided the move into sections so that it is easier to see which move is which.
