Pokémon Court

Chapter 56: Credits

Terrance wasn’t sure if he was getting along well with this group, but after the Breeder Class’ teacher, Mr. Forrest, returned, Terrance’s transfer student identity was confirmed.

Forrest didn’t say much, merely reminding Terrance of some matters related to the Breeder Class.

Before leaving, Terrance asked some questions about the schedule.

The knowledge taught in the Breeder Class fell within the scope of a Junior Breeder, and Terrance no longer needed to listen. So, he had his own plans.

“That’s indeed true, but even though there’s no exam for promotion to the next class in the Breeder Class, I occasionally take some tests. If someone performs exceptionally well, I can apply for some ‘credits’ for them. So, it’s better not to slack off in your studies.”

“I understand.” Terrance nodded and bid farewell to Teacher Forrest, returning to his dorm room.

At Crown Academy, the meal and accommodation fees were included in the tuition. Specially hired chefs prepare the students’ meals, ensuring that both taste and nutrition were impeccable.

However, if a student wanted to request Pokemon food from the academy and didn’t prepare it themselves, they would need to use a different form of “currency,” known as credits.

In the academy, Pokémon food is made by Breeders who are experts in their field. It is a complete and high-quality nutritional product, and the number of credits required varies depending on the ingredients used.

Credits could be obtained through cash exchange, but the ratio was quite ridiculous. They could also be earned through class ranking, regular tests arranged by teachers, and missions posted on the academy network.

The credit system is a new policy at Crown Academy, which plays an indispensable role in encouraging students’ enthusiasm and ensuring the proper management of resources within the academy.

In addition to Pokemon food, special items such as evolutionary stones, Technical Machines, items that Pokemon can carry, and valuable Berries can all be exchanged using credits.

In the Crown Academy, there is even a policy where you can use credits to exchange for precious Pokémon eggs.

After returning to his dorm room, Terrance first logged into the academy network through the computer. On the platform, various missions were posted, and in addition to that, there was a vast database of the Crown Academy containing a plethora of knowledge.

It covered everything from training methods, battle tactics, breeding knowledge, dazzling techniques, to classic battle videos.

Apart from fundamental knowledge accessible to all students, such as the resources in the “House of Breeding” library on the first floor, there were also more profound and advanced materials, which have been accumulated by the previous generations that require a certain amount of credits to access.

Therefore, credits were the most important currency within Crown Academy.

“Interesting…”

“Mission: Accumulate Badges” – 50 credits for each Gym Badge obtained.

“Mission: Junior Breeder’s Certificate” – reward 1000 credits.

Besides these, there were various different competitions including League Conferences that also offered different amounts of credits based on performance.

“So these are the so-called missions? Seems a little random,” Terrance muttered. He carefully browsed through them and found that there was no information about exchanging credits for Pokémon eggs for some reason. Items like Fire Stones seemed quite expensive, costing 200 credits each.

While browsing, suddenly, Terrance noticed a special post.

Unlike the previous missions, this post was not in the mission section but rather in the student exchange area.

It was a request from a Breeder Class student seeking help in taking care of their Pokémon. They were offering 10 credits per week, and the expenses for food and care would be borne by the employer.

“Hmm?” Terrance read further and found that there were quite a few such missions requested by students. Most of them had too many Pokémon on hand and didn’t want their training to be neglected. Others had young Pokémon and were looking for professional help to take care of them.

And with enough credits, students could also have the Breeder Class’ teachers help take care of their Pokémon. However, hardly anyone was extravagant enough to choose that option….

Besides that, Crown Academy also has a corresponding “raising ground” to help students with an excess of Pokémon with regular care.

“This mission… might be worth considering.” Terrance currently has only Beautifly and Swablu as his Pokémon, and he has the capacity to take care of a few more.

Moreover, if the Pokémon he was responsible for taking care of met his requirements, he could coordinate it with Beautifly and Swablu’ special training, a perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

“Before that… Beautifly and Swablu still have a lot of training to do. I need to focus all my attention on them until they reach a bottleneck, then I can consider other things.”

Terrance wanted to further improve Beautifly and Swablu, which required resources.

And resources meant credits.

Most methods to earn credits required time and accumulation. Terrance was a bit lazy, so without hesitation, he chose the “Mission: Junior Breeder’s Certificate” to secure this significant amount of credits first.

With 1000 credits, he could be extravagant for quite some time.

After logging in with his student ID, Terrance took on this mission and uploaded his Breeder information. Then he patiently waited for the credits to be credited…

…

…

On the other side, the staff member responsible for managing the mission system was dumbfoundedly looking at the message that had arrived…and his heart couldn’t calm down for a long time.

Although he had been working here for a long time, it was the first time he has encountered such an astonishing new student.

1000 credits were a “resource” that students would need to spend a long time to earn. If all invested in one Pokémon, it could lead to amazing results.

According to his backend notifications, this student’s registration to mission acceptance time was incredibly short.

“Junior Breeder… Terrance… 10 years old… Breeder Class!!”

“Unbelievable… Does the dean already know about this? I need to talk to him!!”

…

…

“Ding—”

“Is it here?” Terrance saw the addition of 1000 credits to his ID and felt a sense of satisfaction. Now he had more than enough to splurge for several months.

“As of now, earning credits is not the primary goal. First and foremost, I need to start preparing the ‘secret technique’ of Beautifly and Swablu.”

The “secret technique” Terrance had in mind for Beautifly and Swablu also required resources. With this amount of credits, he could exchange for a large number of nutritious products, precious materials, or special items to conduct special training for the two little Pokémon.

If he were traveling outside, Terrance would have neither the resources nor the time to consider their growth in such detail. It was only in this peaceful environment that he could dedicate himself fully to their development.

Also… Terrance looked toward Lilycove City; it was time to start preparing for the Intermediate Breeder exam.

After all, whether it’s people like Cynthia, who will amaze the future generations, or Wallace, the prince of the Pokémon Contest in the Hoenn region, they would inevitably enhance their Breeder level. So there is no harm in him seizing some time.

A Trainer who possesses a thorough understanding of their Pokémon’s growth, personally prepare food according to their tastes, and holds substantial knowledge about Pokémon, is destined to be powerful.
