Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 74 The Armored Rhinoceros Exhausted

In order to make Slowpoke stop resisting training, Qingyuan had no choice.

That's when they came up with a way to let it exercise in one place.

Psychic training only requires Slowpoke to lie still, unlike Water Gun which requires Slowpoke to stand up.

Moreover, the sand on the rocky beach is very wet.

This makes the sand unusually heavy.

Slowpoke's use of psychic powers to lift up the sand is a good way to train its psychic strength.

Furthermore, sand is fluid, so it takes a lot of effort for Slowpoke to lift it up.

So it seems that Slowpoke no longer needs to stand; it can train simply by lying on the ground.

But in reality, this kind of exercise is even more tiring than making it stand up and exercise.

However, Slowpoke was quite satisfied with the training at this point.

Because it can finally lazily lie on the ground.

"Hurry up and start exercising, I've already been very tolerant of you!"

Looking at the Slowpoke sitting on the ground, Qingyuan spoke to it in a serious tone.

Upon hearing this, Slowpoke immediately lay down on the ground and began using its psychic powers to lift up the sand on the beach.

"Ya-dong! (Don't look at me, I'll work out hard!)"

Seeing that Qingyuan was still staring at him, Slowpoke waved at him and called out.

Seeing this, Qingyuan chuckled and turned to look at the armored rhinoceros.

"Come on, armored rhinoceros, I'll train with you today!"

"Let me see where your limits are!"

"Huh!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the armored rhinoceros roared, expressing its morale to Qingyuan.

After several days of Qingyuan's meticulous care, the armored rhinoceros has become familiar with Qingyuan and the others.

Scorpio shares the same attributes as the Armored Rhinoceros.

In addition, Qingyuan intended for the Ironclad Rhinoceros to teach Scorpion about earthquakes and sandstorms.

During this time, their relationship had become so good that they could play rock-paper-scissors together.

Although the two little guys are currently evenly matched because the armored rhinoceros's front legs are still hooves.

However, Qingyuan estimates that this will happen after the Armored Rhinoceros evolves into the Armored Tyrannosaurus Rex.

The situation is likely to change significantly.

Even if the armored rhinoceros is stupid, it should still be able to gain the upper hand with its five-fingered hands.

After all, with Scorpio's pincers, it's either scissors or rock.

Its innate advantages are something that even if Scorpio evolves into the Scorpio King, it still can't match.

"Ironclad Rhino, let's use all our skills first!"

"Let me first assess your mastery of the skills!"

Qingyuan tapped the armored rhinoceros's hard head.

"Huh!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the armored rhinoceros nodded and let out a roar!

"Use Dragon Dive against this reef."

Qingyuan pointed to a huge reef in front of him and said to the armored rhinoceros.

"Huh!"

The armored rhinoceros roared, and its aura surged like a giant wave.

Then, carrying this momentum, the armored rhinoceros charged towards the huge reef in front of it like a giant dragon.

"boom!"

With a loud crash, the giant rock, taller than a person, was smashed to pieces by the armored rhinoceros.

The scorpions heard the noise and quickly looked in this direction.

Upon seeing this, everyone's faces showed shock.

"Hahaha! Cool!"

Upon seeing this, Qingyuan burst into laughter, shouting how awesome it was.

Although Scorpio could now easily smash such a huge reef.

However, compared to the massive body of the armored rhinoceros, the scorpion's agile physique lacked a sense of awe.

In other words, it lacks a kind of intense beauty.

The collision of small hills always ignites the passion of boys.

"Don't stop using Rock Smash!"

Looking at the armored rhinoceros standing in front of the rubble, Qingyuan once again gave a loud command.

"Huh!"

The armored rhinoceros roared and quickly gathered rock-type energy in front of it.

Giant rocks the size of Pikachu were launched by the armored rhinoceros.

"Bang bang bang!"

Three huge rocks struck the reef in succession, making three loud noises.

"Use a rock to polish it!"

……

"Use a corner ram!"

……

"Use Sandstorm!"

……

Qingyuan became increasingly adept at commanding the armored rhinoceros, and he couldn't help but immerse himself in the experience.

By the time he came to his senses, the once rocky beach was now a mess.

All those giant reefs were shattered by the armored rhinoceroses under Qingyuan's command, leaving only a pile of broken reefs.

It's no longer appropriate to call it a rocky beach; perhaps it should be called a gravel beach now.

The armored rhinoceros was exhausted and lay sprawled among the rubble.

If it weren't for its strong constitution, it would probably be foaming at the mouth by now.

Fearing being accidentally injured, the Scorpions stopped training and hid behind Qingyuan.

Qingyuan glanced at them, then waved his hand and said.

"Hahaha! No more workout today, come back with me to rest!"

"Clatter!"

"Sha!"

……

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion and the others cheered.

The five-day training session had left them physically and mentally exhausted.

Qingyuan has given them a break, and they can finally get some rest.

Seeing the happy Scorpions in front of him, Qingyuan plopped down on the ground and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hoo-ha! (I feel like I'm going to die!)"

Seeing the happy Qingyuan and the others, the armored rhinoceros tried to make a weak call, attempting to get Qingyuan's attention.

However, Qingyuan was having a great time and didn't care about it at all.

If Scorpio hadn't looked around and not noticed that Iron Rhino was also in the celebrating team...

It's likely that Qingyuan won't notice the armored rhinoceros until it's foaming at the mouth.

"How are you, Ironclad Rhino?"

"Whew! (I'm fine, just so tired, I feel like I'm going to die!)"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's greeting, the armored rhinoceros panted heavily and called out to Qingyuan.

Seeing this, Qingyuan quickly put it and the others back into their Poké Balls and ran as fast as he could towards the Pokémon Center.

Fortunately, the pebble beach wasn't far from the Pokémon Center, and Qingyuan was able to run at full speed.

Qingyuan successfully ran back to the Pokémon Center in just three minutes.

Why are you always causing me so much trouble!

"The armored rhinoceros is just recovering, and you dare to subject it to such intense training?"

In the ward, the armored rhinoceros lay on a soft cushion, pretending to sleep.

At this point, it had already been healed by Chansey's Heal Pulse.

There's nothing seriously wrong with its body; it's just that it hasn't been exercising for a long time and then suddenly started intense training.

Especially since it trains in such a restrained environment by the sea.

Its body couldn't hold on any longer, and it collapsed from exhaustion.

Meanwhile, Qiao Yiran was scolding Qingyuan, the trainer who disregarded the Pokémon's health and engaged in intense training.

Xiaoxia's actions at noon opened the door for Qiao Yiran.

At this moment, she was twisting Qingyuan's ear with one hand while scolding him.

"Can't you just give me a break? This is the second time already!"

"Sister Ran! I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"I promise I won't do it again!"

Only after Qingyuan begged for mercy did Qiao Yiran finally let him go.

"If this happens again, you'll be sorry!"

After giving Qingyuan a threatening remark, Qiao Yiran left the ward and returned to the counter to handle matters at the Pokémon Center.

"Who taught you this? It hurts so much!"

Qingyuan rubbed his ears while complaining.

At the same time, he made a decision in his heart: he could get to know Miss Joey better in the future.

But you can't get as close to her as Qiao Yiran, or she'll really beat you up.

And if she hits you, you can't even refute it.
