Pokémon: I am really a civilian trainer

fter adding points, Mark and Caterpillar fainted again.

When Mark and Caterpillar woke up, they were still beside two huge fires.

The fire was crackling and seemed to be burning something, but Mark couldn't remember what it was.

"Do you remember what was burning in the fire?"

"Hiss."

The caterpillar shook its head. It didn't remember anything, but it felt that the burning thing seemed to make it feel a little sad.

What exactly is burning?

"Hiss?"

The caterpillar turned its head and asked several nearby caterpillars.

There were some green caterpillars near the fire, but not many, only a dozen or so, three of which were slightly larger guards of the leader.

A few green caterpillars tilted their heads, and they had no idea what was burning in the fire.

A few meters away, Mark looked at the dozen or so green caterpillars nearby with confusion. He always felt that these green caterpillars should not appear here, but he had no idea why they should not appear.

Without giving it too much thought, he now had important things to deal with and had no time to think about these messy things.

Mark looked at his caterpillar and said, "Caterpillar, your [Escape] characteristic has been awakened some time ago, but the awakening is just the beginning. Just like your [Impact] has developed many techniques, the [Escape] characteristic can also be further developed."

"Hiss!"

The Caterpillar nodded. He thought what Mark said was right.

Mark pinched his chin lightly: "Reality is not a turn-based Pokémon game. The [Escape] trait is more like a perception ability in reality.

In my opinion, there is no essential difference between it and Eevee's [Danger Prediction], Jigglypuff's [Perception], and Flintstones' [Readiness to Escape]. They are all perceptions of danger.

It's just that [escape] and [eager to escape] will have some impact on your emotions when you feel the danger, making you have a stress response that makes you want to escape.

In some ways, this stress response can be helpful for you to avoid danger, but it is not conducive to you to actually face and overcome danger.

Therefore, our next training on [escape] is, on the one hand, to improve the flexibility of the [escape] trait and make it easier to stimulate; on the other hand, it is to overcome the impact of this trait on your emotions.

That's right…"

Mark said as he untied the backpack behind him and took out the Cowardly Bug Pokémon Egg inside.

Mark said: "This cowardly bug elfPokémon egg should be hatching soon. It should have the awakened characteristic [Eager to Escape] when it is born. You can refer to its characteristics."

Mark said as he held the Scared Bug Pokémon Egg in his palm.

Then, Mark was stunned when he looked at the Cowardly Bug's Pokémon egg.

He seemed to have forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it.

Without being stunned for too long, Mark quickly began special training on [Escape] with the Caterpillar.

A dozen or so green caterpillars nearby saw the Insect King undergoing special training and wanted to join in, so Mark took the opportunity to train these green caterpillars as well.

The specific training process is to cover the caterpillar's eyes with leaves and silk threads, cover its antennae as much as possible, and then throw huge rocks at the caterpillar, so as to make the caterpillar accustomed to the feeling of being stimulated by the [Escape] characteristic.

Thanks to his [Self-Regeneration] that can heal injuries and his [Power of Clear Stream], Mark tried to pick some heavy stones so that the Caterpillar could more easily sense the danger.

As for the other caterpillars, Mark chose smaller stones to prevent them from being seriously injured.

In this way, after three days of training, the cowardly bug's Pokémon egg hatched, and a sea cockroach with a white-gray body, purple tentacles and underbelly hatched out of the shell.

This cowardly insect was extremely timid. The moment it was born, it hid in his clothes and dared not touch anything except him.

Seeing this, Mark didn't pay much attention and continued to train the Caterpillar with big rocks.

Day after day, time passes by unknowingly.

After nearly four months, the Caterpillar gradually got used to the stimulation of the [Escape] characteristic. Almost every time he threw a boulder, the Caterpillar could rely on the [Escape] characteristic to dodge, thus completing the first stage of the training plan.

As for other green caterpillars, the results are not very ideal. It is estimated that it may take two to three years to achieve the results of the green caterpillar in four months.

After these four months, the timid bug that always hid in Mark's clothes has become accustomed to the external environment. Occasionally, it will crawl out of his clothes and take a walk outside, and will also tentatively contact the caterpillars.

Of course, Mark didn't pay much attention to these things. His mind was full of the Caterpillar's [escape] characteristics, and he didn't have the mind to think about other things.

Next, Mark began to gradually reduce the size of the boulders and gradually used smaller stones to throw at the Caterpillar, in order to train the sensitivity of the Caterpillar's [Escape] characteristic.

Time continues to pass, day after day.

Before anyone knew it, the dozen or so green caterpillars living nearby disappeared one after another, and eventually all of them disappeared.

Mark didn't notice anything about this, as if those green caterpillars had never existed.

He just trained with the Caterpillar, constantly reducing the weight of the stone.

It took Mark one year and seven months to reduce the huge stone weighing dozens of kilograms to a size of less than one kilogram.

And this is also the limit of the Caterpillar.

If a stone weighing more than one pound is thrown, the caterpillar's [escape] characteristic will show an obvious reaction; for stones weighing less than one pound, the caterpillar will not be able to feel anything unless Mark further increases the force of the throw.

It is very easy for the cowardly bug to dodge like this. Even if a marble-sized stone is thrown, the cowardly bug can easily dodge it.

For this reason, the Caterpillar kept asking the Cowardly Bug for advice, but there was no obvious effect.

For two consecutive years, the caterpillar was stuck at one kilogram.

Somehow, Mark had a feeling that this was all that was needed. If he recognized the results of the Caterpillar's special training at this time, everything would be over.

However, this alone obviously did not meet Mark's expectations.

In the end, Mark and the Caterpillar began to practice hard just like they did when they practiced [Collision].

Time continued to pass, and before they knew it, the cowardly bug disappeared just like the dozen or so green caterpillars that disappeared, but Mark and the green caterpillars still didn't notice.

Then one morning nine years later.

As if inspiration had burst out, or as if a sudden blessing had come to his mind, the Caterpillar suddenly felt as if a shackle had been opened on its body.

Its [Escape] trait has become stronger.

The subsequent tests also confirmed the Caterpillar's feelings.

Not only a one-pound stone, but even a small pebble, or some dead branches and leaves, the caterpillar can sense it and dodge it.

After a series of tests, the man and the bug hugged each other excitedly.

Then, a roar sounded...

…

…

Next to the fire, Mark and Caterpillar, who were in a coma, woke up one after another.

Not only Mark and the Caterpillar, but more than a dozen Caterpillars nearby also fell into a coma and woke up slowly with Mark.

Mark rubbed his forehead gently and looked at the dozen or so awakened green caterpillars, then turned his head and asked Butterfree next to him: "How long has it been since the green caterpillars and I fell into coma?"

Butterfree looked a little confused and replied telekinetically, "You and Caterpillar just fell asleep and woke up immediately."

"Is the added dream world instantaneous?"

Mark was lost in thought, and suddenly felt extremely empty in his stomach. He and the caterpillar pounced on the food they had prepared and began to eat it in big mouthfuls...
