Outside the dwelling Torii had chosen, there now stood a sturdy log. He had stumbled upon it in the forest and happily hauled it back.

  At the moment, Swablu was perched in Torii's hand, quietly allowing Torii to observe it. To train a Pokémon, one must begin with understanding. Whether a Trainer or a Breeder, they must have a clear understanding of their Pokémon's future direction and growth.

  When Swablu truly matured, it couldn't possibly rely on a single "Peck" move to dominate the world. The "Peck" move was, at best, a catalyst to promote Swablu's development and a transitional move in the current process of improving its strength. For the future Swablu, it was destined to be phased out.

  Before this, Torii consulted a lot of information about Swablu. Currently, the newly born Swablu was known to have successfully used only a few moves.

  Peck, Growl, and Feather Dance, simir to most newly born Pokémon, had a pitifully small number of moves.

  So now, Torii could only start training through the "Peck" move.

  Before that, Torii was helping Swablu with flight training. As a Pokémon capable of flight, it was necessary to master flying as soon as possible. Although, with growth, Swablu would very easily turn it into an instinct, time was currently pressing, and Torii could only list this as one of his tasks.

  At the same time, physical training was also essential. This training was of great importance to the vast majority of Pokémon and could not be abandoned.

  Currently, Swablu was newly born, and the best physical training was to constantly fp its wings and fly around, which was very helpful for its growth.

  In addition to this, the rge log that Torii brought back came into py for the training of the "Peck" move.

  At the beginning, Swablu's immature beak could only leave a small white mark on the rge log, without any lethality at all.

  But with continuous use, the light permeating the beak began to obviously increase, giving Torii hope.

  Swablu did not disappoint Master Katsumune's evaluation of it having excellent potential. The simple Peck move had shown obvious progress after it had been used a dozen times. Although it was still far from being perfectly performed, it could also indirectly indicate that Swablu's speed of improvement was quite good.

  Every time it trained for a period of time, Swablu had to supplement its nutrition to keep up with this rapid pace of improvement...

  "No need to rush, rex your mood, and carefully feel the change in energy."

  Looking at Swablu, who had accidentally bumped into the log after not succeeding in using Peck, Torii comforted it with its aggrieved gaze.

  ......

  Because Swablu had not been born for long, it could not withstand too much high-intensity training, so Torii stopped Swablu's training after only performing a certain degree of tasks.

  Today was still the first day Swablu started training. Although time was pressing, it could not exceed its load.

  In addition to training, Torii would also talk and chat with Swablu.

  Lying on the ground, looking at the blue sky, Swablu also curled up on Torii's body. They were lying comfortably like this, enjoying a short, leisurely time.

  While chatting, Torii began to tell Swablu about his experiences.

  "...and that's how I was taken to the Green Roof by Grandma Oran—"

  "—and a year ago, I met Butterfree. It was originally a Wurmple, almost like that little guy you just fought against..."

  "...I wonder what everyone is doing now?"

  "It's been a while since I left the Green Roof..."

  "But right now, it's not the time to go back yet. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely introduce you to everyone at the Green Roof."

  Telling Swablu about his experiences bit by bit, Swablu was also listening seriously. Sometimes Torii would also look forward to the future with Swablu. No matter how difficult things were, Swablu would agree to everything with confidence, not knowing whether it understood or not.

  "Heh, it's getting te, it's time to prepare food."

  After chatting for a long time, both guys were still enjoying themselves, but Torii's rumbling stomach was now calling out, forcing him to prepare food.

  Torii felt that the food he cooked was pretty good, but he didn't know if it was from his past life when he cooked alone, or from the experience he gained taking care of the children at the Green Roof, or if the ingredients in this world were very high quality.

  After everything was taken care of, it was about to enter the night again. This was Torii's third night since entering Mt. Chimney, and it was also the end of the first day of Torii and Swablu being together.

  After a day of running, Torii had a general understanding of Swablu's condition. Torii was also preparing more fully and meticulously for tomorrow's special training, which was much heavier than today's task.

  For the initial training, Torii pnned to have Swablu focus on practice. As for actual combat, Torii decided to postpone it.

  And for himself, Torii did not intend to rex. With some of the books prepared for him by Master Katsumune, he could well enrich his idle time.

  From now on, Torii was already preparing for the intermediate Breeder assessment. The intermediate Breeder assessment was also held once a year. Compared with the initial assessment, the intermediate assessment would not add any new content, but only give the examinee a restriction on the existing things, or extend the content vertically. It could be said that if someone who had just passed the initial Breeder assessment was asked to participate in the intermediate assessment, it wouldn't be a miserable end. However, the core of the intermediate assessment was to select the best from the best. If the level of this year was not very good, the quota would definitely not be rexed.

  Intermediate Breeders had the qualification to apply to the League for a Day Care. The most important condition for running a Day Care was that the applicant must have an academic level of intermediate Breeder or above.

  Of course, there were also some "illegal" Day Cares in the folk, mostly privately run. Although it didn't affect the opening, in terms of reputation, specifications, and entrustment options, they were not as trustworthy as Day Cares with legal certificates from the League.

  Moreover, with the increase in the number of Trainers, there were often some Day Cares established to swindle Pokémon, causing serious damage to the reputation of simir industries. Therefore, the League was also considering whether to raise the threshold for running a Day Care, making it the exclusive job of Breeders.

  If being a beginner Breeder was a start, then being an intermediate Breeder was having the capital to monetize one's knowledge.

  "Let's rest." Closing the notebook, Torii smiled at Swablu, who was still with him. He could see that Swablu was very tired after a day of training, but it couldn't sleep peacefully because of him.

  So, Torii put down the notebook and y down himself.
