"Holy crap! This, this, this..."

What kind of godly panel is this?

Speed 2?

Attack 91!?!?!?

And, its ability isn't Truant! Instead, it's Defiant?!

Marcus was dumbfounded, his heart churning with turbulent waves...

He had this feeling from the moment he first saw this Slakoth.

After all, those thick arms comparable to a Vigoroth weren't just for show...

But he didn't expect it to be this exaggerated!

With just one look, Marcus had already decided.

He was going to become the Trainer of this Slakoth!

Slowly squatting down, Marcus took out a magnificent Pokeblock and placed it in front of the Slakoth: "Are you hungry? You can try this, I think you'll like it~"

"Slakoth..." The Slakoth didn't start eating, still holding its head up and looking at him.

"Don't worry, I won't send you back~" Marcus squinted with a smile, rubbing its head: "I want to become your Trainer, is that okay?"

"Slakoth?" The Slakoth was stunned, it gently flipped over, revealing its two atrophied hind legs.

These two legs combined weren't even as thick as a forearm...

They were covered in dust and mud, along with some old scars.

Seeing this scene, even though Marcus was somewhat prepared, his heart still couldn't help but tremble.

A disabled body that could make a Slakoth overcome its nature and develop Defiant... how could it not have some tragic past?

"Hoo..." Exhaling, Marcus picked it up into his arms. The Slakoth slightly lowered its head. Although it wanted to agree to this human's request, countless experiences told it that it was really weak... so weak that it couldn't even move freely in battle...

Therefore, when Marcus officially extended the invitation, it hesitated instead.

It didn't want to become an obstacle for this young man in front of it.

"Perhaps, in everyone's eyes, you are not an excellent training subject..." Marcus's voice softly sounded, and the Slakoth's bright eyes grew dimmer.

"But, you are you. You are not defined by anyone, anything, or any object."

The Slakoth raised its head again, meeting those deep eyes.

"On the contrary, in my opinion, you possess excellent qualities that other Slakoth have never had. Your tenacity, indomitability, and resilience are far more dazzling than a pair of healthy legs, aren't they?"

"Slakoth..." Tears welled up in the Slakoth's eyes.

Before coming, it had heard this young man's words. Even through the screen, it recognized him at first glance.

And now, from his mouth, it received the sense of recognition it had never obtained in its life.

"Slakoth, become my Pokemon. Trust me, we will definitely stand at the pinnacle of the world, and you will be my strongest ace!"

"Slakoth——!"

The Slakoth suddenly threw itself into Marcus's arms, tears flowing uncontrollably.

It knew that it had finally found its home.

And the young man in front of it had shone that ray of hope into its dark world, becoming the only brilliant and dazzling color.

[Ding, obtained Slakoth's approval, rewarding master points ×10!]

The System sound rang in his ears. Marcus took out a Luxury Ball: "Then... here we go~"

"Slakoth!" The Slakoth nodded heavily, its paw pressing the switch on the Poke Ball, and then it turned into a red light and was sucked in.

"Du... Deng!"

There was almost no shaking. Amidst a burst of starlight, the capture was successful!

Releasing the Slakoth again, Marcus smiled and rubbed its head: "From now on, please take good care of me, Slakoth~"

"Slakoth~!"

"Indeedee~" At this moment, Indeedee came to Marcus's side with food and toiletries, cleaned the Slakoth, and let it fill its belly.

Soon, the four Pokemon were familiar with each other.

After learning about the Slakoth's past, the three Pokemon all expressed their willingness to take care of it, especially Indeedee, who paid extra attention to it.

The warmth from the small family also gave the Slakoth a sense of belonging.

Letting the four Pokemon play in the room, Marcus opened the System panel.

With the funds given by Norman, he could officially start his 'pay-to-win' plan...

The Slakoth's congenital defect prevented it from recovering its speed talent later on, so it could only follow the 'one-punch man' route.

Then it needed to cultivate the Huge Power ability.

[Ding, deducting 1,000,000 PD, obtaining the superpower spinach cultivation plan...]

[Superpower Spinach Cultivation Plan: Soak spinach seeds in distilled and concentrated 'Liechi Berry juice' and sow them in 'Soft Sand'.

And mix the items 'X Attack', 'Full Restore', 'Protein', and 'Rich Mulch' in a ratio of 1:7:4:8 to form the fertilizer 'Superpower Potion', and apply it.

ps: Growth cycle is 3 days.]

[Superpower Spinach: A strange-smelling vegetable that tastes like shit. One bite will make you vomit for two and a half days, and swallowing it will give you diarrhea for three days. Long-term consumption and complete adaptation can cultivate the 'Huge Power' ability.]

[Ding, the host's single consumption has met the conditions, rewarding 1 × Berry planting pot and some spinach seeds!]

[Berry Planting Pot: A flower pot containing high-quality 'Soft Sand' inside, which can be used to plant Berries yourself.

ps: The effect is better when paired with the Squirtle watering can~]

"...." Seeing the System information, Marcus was silent.

The cultivation method of this superpower spinach actually involves 4 special items!

And each one is more expensive than the last!

X Attack is a one-time enhancer. In the game, it can be used in battle to increase a Pokemon's Attack by 1 stage. In reality, it is a daily training potion that can specifically cultivate a Pokemon's Attack, priced at 1000.

No need to mention Full Restore, the most expensive medicine, which can restore all of a Pokemon's HP and status conditions!

It can be said to be a life-saving miracle medicine essential for home and travel! Market price is 10,000.

Protein, in the game, can increase Attack effort values by 10. In reality, it is also a noble cultivation potion, priced at 50,000!

No need to mention Liechi Berry, it is a rare Berry itself, but among these items, it seems less expensive...

The most outrageous thing is that the spinach grown at such a high cost still tastes like shit!

It also has side effects such as vomiting and diarrhea!!

Marcus's mouth twitched: "This spinach is probably made of gold... not only is it expensive, but it's also heavy metal... poisonous!"

Glancing at the little Slakoth who was still unaware of its future, Marcus suddenly asked: "Slakoth, do you like eating shit?"

Slakoth: "Slakoth???"

...

Finally, Marcus simply told the Slakoth about the matter.

Upon hearing that it could strengthen itself, the Slakoth agreed almost without hesitation on the spot.

In its most difficult times, it had even eaten grass roots and dirt. What was shit-tasting spinach compared to that? Oh no, this was superpower spinach!

Marcus shook his head. He had originally wanted to use superpower spinach to cultivate other physical attackers into having the Huge Power ability as well.

But looking at it now, this taste alone could deter 99% of Pokemon.

"Perhaps, this thing is only suitable for Slakoth..."

With a sigh, Marcus ordered several sets of items online.

Changing an ability is a long-term process, and it's better to start early than late.
