Chapter 180 Struggling to Raise 4 Pokémon
Chapter 180 Struggling to Raise 4 Pokémon
Looking at the four Pokémon in front of him, Xuan Mingtian couldn't help but check their data.
pangolin
Attribute: Ground
Ability: Sand Cloak (When in a sandstorm, Pokémon with this ability have a significantly increased evasion rate and are unaffected by the sandstorm's effects on their HP.)
Qualification: Orange
Strength: Intermediate
Skills: Catch, Round, Sand Splash, Poison Needle, Roll
Assessment: Just one of the masses, considered trash by trainers. But within its own species, it's above average.
Pangolin
Attribute: Ground
Ability: Sand Cloak
Qualification: Huang
Strength: Advanced
Skills: Tear Claw, Earthquake, High Speed Star, Quicksand Hell, Sandstorm...
Evaluation: A fairly average Sandslash, not much in the eyes of trainers. But it has become the leader of its kind.
Sandshrew (Alolan Form)
Attributes: Ice, Steel
Ability: Snow Cloak (When in hail weather, Pokémon with this ability are immune to damage from that weather. It can even greatly increase their evasion rate.)
Qualification: Orange
Strength: Intermediate
Skills: Grab, Round, Endurance, Fine Snow, Combo Slash
Review: An ordinary sandshrew, but because it's an Alolan form, it's quite popular in the summer. Catching one will definitely provide a refreshing frozen treat during the summer.
Sandslash (Alolan Form)
Attributes: Ice, Steel
Features: Snow Hidden
Qualification: Huang
Strength: Advanced
Skills: Ice Spike, Metal Explosion, Ice Pillar Slam, Cleave, Metal Claw...
Assessment: When trying to catch it, beware of its barbed claws and sharp, hard spines. One wrong move and you'll be bleeding profusely.
Faced with the pangolins before him, Xuan Mingtian suddenly had the urge to adopt them. It wasn't because of their cuteness or their frozen bodies.
"Classmates, do you now understand the characteristics of the Sandshrew and the Sandshrew? If you have any questions, please raise your hand."
As soon as the teacher finished speaking, the students in the class began to raise their hands eagerly, as if afraid that the teacher wouldn't let them answer.
Whether it was because of the homeroom teacher or not, Teacher Shi chose to let Bai Wu stand up and answer.
"Teacher, I saw that Sandshrew from the Alola region has the Ice type. Does that mean it would be very comfortable to sleep with it in the summer, and that you would have an endless supply of frozen drinks every day?"
"Bai Wu, your idea is wonderful, but it's all just a dream. Have you forgotten the first rule of possessing an elf?"
The teacher stared at Bai Wu speechlessly, completely baffled as to why the latter would have such thoughts. It was utterly contrary to his own teaching principles; calling him a "disrespectful son" wouldn't be an exaggeration.
"Um, teacher, you must have misunderstood something. With my family's financial situation, it's more than enough to support a whole colony, so you don't need to worry about me mistreating it."
Bai Wu's words were both self-righteous and utterly absurd. Anyone with eyes could see that he wanted the body of an Alolan Sandshrew; he wasn't just lusting after its body, he even considered the characteristics of a Pokémon.
"Ahem, teacher, I think Bai Wu's idea is wrong. Why don't you let me train these four Pokémon? I'm sure they won't have any objections."
As he spoke, without waiting for the teacher's objection, Xuan Mingtian walked straight towards them. As he touched them, he secretly activated the life energy within his body. This caused the leader, the Pangolin King, to widen its eyes, as if it had spotted some kind of treasure.
Following closely behind, just like Sandslash, the other three Pokémon were secretly infused with a trace of life energy by him.
"Pangolin~Pangolin Rat"
"King of Pangolins"

In an instant, their cries filled the entire classroom, roughly meaning...
"Hey, teacher. From now on, he's my boss. He doesn't need to take us back later."
"Bai Wu, teacher. Look, they seem quite interested in me. I'll take care of them from now on, and I'll raise them to be plump and healthy."
What could Teacher Shi do in the face of such a powerful figure? He could only accept it helplessly.
But Bai Wu was a little unconvinced.
"Xuan, that's a bit unethical of you. I was the one who wanted these Alolan Sandshrew and Sandslash first, you can't do that. You have to compete fairly."
Upon hearing this, Yang Bin, who had been watching the scene unfold, burst into laughter. Even his deskmate, Xiao Gang, was so embarrassed that his face turned bright red and his shoulders were trembling uncontrollably; it was clear he was struggling to hold back his laughter.
"Oh? You mean fair competition? Fine, if you can take them away now, I have nothing to say."
"Okay, it's a deal then."
As he spoke, Bai Wu took out a piece of unmeltable ice, a bag of soft sand, and a can of light blue energy cubes from his backpack. He then walked straight toward the four elves.
"Hello, this ice block and energy block will be very helpful to you. As long as you come with me, you can use the ice block and energy block as you please."
Unfortunately, dreams are beautiful, but reality is harsh. The four Pokémon simultaneously looked at him with utter disdain and disdain, as if he were a fool. Although they sensed these things were of great help to them, they couldn't compare to even a fraction of the life energy they had just received—a simple and obvious choice. Only a foolish Pokémon would make such a mistake. (I'm not referring to Psyduck; after all, that duck only needs food. If that's not enough, it'll have water.)
With disdain and contempt in their eyes, the four elves abandoned Bai Wu's attempts to win them over. They decisively stood beside Xuan Mingtian. In Yang Bin and Xiao Gang's view, this outcome was already predetermined, because they knew that this guy had definitely used his life energy to win them over, yet they didn't know why he had adopted these four elves in the first place.
"Oh, you guys, you guys, how could you do this? What did he even give us? You don't even want these resources, it's infuriating!"
"Bai Wu, wake up. If you want to eat popsicles or drink frozen drinks in the future, you can come to me anytime."
As soon as Xuan Mingtian finished speaking, Bai Wu, who had been listless, seemed to be struck by lightning and perked up. He looked at the former with seemingly affectionate eyes, causing our little comrade Tian to suddenly shiver in the sweltering October heat.
He immediately raised his hand and gave Bai Wu a black eye, leaving the students and the teacher on the podium speechless. What the hell? He hit someone after just one affectionate glance? Is there no law anymore?
"Get lost! If you look at me like that again, I'll hang you up and beat you. Don't you find that disgusting?"
"Hey, Xuan, don't do that. You're still my classmate, and my sister's nemesis too. I'll come find you whenever I want ice cream."
Before Xuan Mingtian could react, Bai Wu immediately ran back to his seat.
