Pokemon - A real story

Chapter 693: Directions

Axel started to tell stories of electromagnetism. Electromagnetism could do a lot of things. Attack at the speed of light, could manipulate heat, metal manipulation, can convert electromagnetism to other forms of energy, and many more.

5 of them and Agnes were surprised that electromagnetism could be used in so many ways.

"First of all, 3 of you are going to combine and become one when you evolve. I just want to ask if you have any problem with it. I don't know what would happen to each of you when you evolve but when you evolve further, all 3 of you will literally become one.", said Axel.

All 3 of them looked at Axel with a surprised face.

"Yes, you guys can evolve further. At that time, you will be very powerful. So, I want to confirm if you are ready?", asked Axel.

He had thought that they would take time to answer or they would not agree but he was surprised to see that 3 of them were ready to merge.

"Why?"

Axel found out that all three of them wanted to merge from the beginning. This must be one of the effects of their passive move 'Co-exist'.

Axel was relieved to hear it. If they didn't agree, he was ready to train them separately. He just wanted them to be happy.

After talking to them for some time, Axel said,

"I will be here for a month and all of us will train here seriously for a month. All of us will train as much as possible."

At that time, he had called out all of his Pokemons. He still had a lot of things to do. He had to go to Aeus island to talk to Lucario and also take back Gyarados and Steelix.

Due to some reason, he could not see their progress actively. This must be due to the energy of Aeus Island. He also had to finish a tide battle for the mercenary team. Axel also wanted to fight gym battles now.

But all of these things would be done after a month. As of right now, he wanted all of his Pokemons to train and level up as much as possible. Mostly his young Pokemons and they would have to be ready for the gym battles now.

"Mom, how is the business going?", asked Axel.

"Oh, the business is going very well. But you were right. The interest of people in the restaurant is decreasing day by day. The sales are decreasing.

But I must tell you, the sales of new restaurants are at the peak."

"Hmm... I think it is now time for us to expand the business. We have enough money to invest in new business. We can now start our franchise too."

Axel also told his deal with Gordon and told them that he would come here in the coming week. One of the essential needs for the franchise was a good interior concept and Gordon was perfect for the job.

Axel had now classified his new foods, from Nepali food, Indian food, Chinese food, Italian food many others. He was knowledgeable about these types of cuisines and he wanted to create various foods of these cuisines and create separate restaurants for them.

For example, Dal bhat would be Nepali food while Samosas would be Indian food.

His mother, uncle, and his father went on to make various dishes as said by Axel. First, they wanted to make Nepali and Indian restaurants as Axel was well versed in them.

Axel also had to make recipes for Gordon's restaurants.

A day had passed and Axel had first called out his old Pokemons. It was now time to discuss their future directions.

Charizard and Slowemperor.

These two were in tier 3 and now it was necessary for them to focus on their own directions. However, Axel had no idea how to do it. The king of the Kanto region had given him a book about direction and how to reach Champion rank but it was not very detailed.

For Charizard, there were 4 directions that it could go through.

Ash Smoke Heat Flame heart

These were the directions of fire type. For Slowemperor, there were many as it had an ice core and psychic core.

Psychic core

Telekinesis Empowerment Illusion Creation Space

Ice core

Ice make Ice reflection Snow Absolute Zero

These were the directions for Slowemperor. Charizard wanted to master all the directions like Shedinja. However, since Flame Heart was the upgraded version of Heat, it decided to master Ash, Smoke, and Flame Heart.

For Slowemperor, it decided to master illusion for psychic core, and foR ice core, it had decided to go to Ice make.

That was an interesting choice. Slowemperor was not that well-versed in the ice core.

Even though they had selected the way they wanted to go, Axel still had no idea how to train them in these directions. He knew that with a deep understanding of these directions, they could have good mastery of it and it could be accomplished. But how could they have a deep understanding?

So, why don't he ask those who have already done it? Yes, Axel had already called Red when he was on the plane and he had already arrived at the airport. Agnes and her Dragonite had gone to pick him up.

Since Agnes already had such a powerful Pokemon and since she was loved by all the people in the city, there was no issue with her security.

After waiting for a few minutes, Red arrived.

"Red, thank god you came. I just don't know what to do. Charles and Magnus are already tier 3 king rank now and they need guidance. So, can we start?"

Before Red could even say anything, his mom came forward.

"Axel, what are you doing? Is this how you treat our guests? Red, please come inside and have tea first.", said his mother.

After having tea and relaxing for some time, Red was ready also in the training ground.

"Red, I just don't understand why you travel by plane. You already have Alakazam that could make your job far easier.", said Axel.

"Unlike you, I love the plane ride. So, now can we start?", asked Red with a smile.

"Yes, please."

"Oh, before we start, Ash is already going to be 2 years old after a couple of months. Aren't you going to visit him?"

"Yes, I do want to meet him but I have been so busy.", sighed Axel.

"Axel, you must meet your godson."

"Me? Godfather?", asked Axel in shock.

"Haha, yes. I and Delia have decided that you are going to be the godfather of Ash. So, congratulations."

"But why? Aren't you closer to Blue?"

"Yes, I am but Delia insisted. She said that she wanted Ash to become like you in the future. Blue didn't have any problem with it, so you are now a godfather."

"Really?"

"Yes, I just wanted to have some family connection with you. We have been together for some time now. I know that the world is going haywire after a few decades or maybe after a few years.

I want you to protect Ash when the time comes."

"I promise I will protect him."

"Thanks, now let's get on with your problem. Now, you have searched a lot for information relating to this but have not found any detailed explanation. There is also a reason for that.

Normally, trainers start to train their Pokemons in the direction when they reach pseudo-champion rank and there are very few trainers that could reach that level. You are one of those. So, first of all, congratulate yourself on it."

This was true. Even though Axel was meeting a lot of people these days who already had pseudo-champion rank Pokemons, it must be noted that there were very few people in the world who could reach that stage.

"Now, relating to the directions or mastering the energies of the cores. You already know about the various directions for Charizard and Slowemperor. Magnus is not here right now, so let's discuss about Charizard.

Charles had said that it would master 3 of the 4 directions of fire type. Ash, Smoke, and Flame Heart. So, how does one master these directions?

Let's take an example of 'Ash' of fire core. When a Pokemon truly understands 'Ash' on every level, they would said to have a high level of mastery on it. When that Pokemon understands every level of it and then manipulates it to use it to its advantage, at that time, the Pokemon would reach the master rank.

Understanding every level, every molecule and every detail of 'Ash' of fire core is not an easy job because there is no information or books relating to it. So, the Pokemon would have to try a lot of things and emerge themselves in that specific direction for a long time.

They could meditate on it, and train to manipulate it. Think of every quality and description of 'Ash' to have a good level of understanding.

However, that would take a lot of time, and sometimes Pokemon would not even succeed in it. That is why the number of master-rank Pokemon in this world is very low.

However, there is a cheat to have a good level of understanding in a shorter period of time."

"What is the cheat?"

Red took a big gulp of water as he was talking for a long time. He wanted to create suspense for added effects but seeing the face of Axel, he decided to tell him the cheat.

"Oh, come on tell me."

"The cheat is my Charizard."

"What?"

"Yes, the easiest way from your Charizard to understand about 'Ash' is to train with my Kripton. But let me remind you, my Kripton is not as crazy as your Charles and it had only mastered 'Ash'. You will have to find another Charizard or fire-type Pokemon for 'Smoke' and 'Flame Heart'.

The time to understand 'Ash' would rapidly decrease if my Kripton teaches your Charles."

"So, my Charles could reach master rank with your Kripton's help."

"Yeah, that is not possible."

"But why? Your Charizard is already a master-rank Pokemon."

That was something Axel had found out much later when he first met Red. It turned out that Red's Charizard named Kripton who was also his first official Pokemon had reached master rank.

"The general understanding of 'Ash' would be the same for every fire-type Pokemon. But mastering its understanding and then using it to its own advantage is something a Pokemon would have to do on its own.

It cannot be taught or forced."

"How much time would it take for Charles to have a general understanding of 'Ash' if Kripton teaches it?"

"That would surely depend on Charles. How much it could understand and how much it could comprehend."

"So, I will send Charles to you and it can start to train."

"Yeah, that is also not recommended."

"But why?"

Axel was now getting frustrated.

"Axel, the bond between trainer and Pokemon is something very pure but is also very complicated. There will also come a time when a Pokemon's bond with you will decrease and this is the prime situation for it.

If your Charles did all the hard work and became a champion-rank Pokemon, then why would it need you? So, you will also have to present there. It is not mandatory but recommended. You will also have to go through that process."
