Greatest Pokémon Trainer

```

It must be rare to see an Eevee continuously playing with a drink bottle.

As for filling the bottle with sand, that's even less common.

In order to motivate Eevee, Fang Yuan came up with an idea.

Without a doubt, performing such skillful special training requires concentration and focus.

However, sometimes when one becomes very skilled at something, it is possible to multitask.

Take Fang Yuan himself for example, he could watch anime and eat at the same time without being affected at all...

"Eevee, multitasking theoretically means doing two things at the same time..."

"Normal multitasking is indeed difficult, but there are exceptions."

"If you're quite skilled at something and can do it instinctively, then switching your attention between two tasks could also achieve the effect of doing them simultaneously."

"Do you understand?"

Eevee, clutching the drink bottle, shuddered, feeling that Fang Yuan was digging a hole for it again.

"Bwoo..."

"What I mean is, you might be able to do special training and watch TV at the same time," Fang Yuan said with a smile.

"Bwoo??"

"Think about it, your eyes watch the screen, your ears listen to the sound, and then you control the sand inside the bottle while holding it. Isn't it remarkably similar to eating while watching TV?"

Eevee nodded, feeling that there was some truth to this.

"But obviously, you are not yet very skilled at controlling the sand inside the bottle. The most you can do is make it chaotically tumble around, right?"

"Imagine if you were so skilled at controlling the sand in the bottle that you could make it rotate at high speed without even looking, wouldn't you be able to do special training and watch TV at the same time?"

Eevee's eyes lit up; it turned out special training could be done this way and even include watching TV, which sounded great.

"So the priority now is to quickly find the feeling of making the sand rotate at high speed, and then practice it continuously. Once you are skilled enough, you'll be set free and can legitimately watch TV."

"Bwoo!" Eevee nodded vigorously, suddenly feeling motivated. This special training was too easy, as it could be done while watching TV.

Fang Yuan scratched his cheek, wondering if this should not count as tricking Eevee.

But to be honest, it was indeed a big trap.

If Eevee really became quite skilled at making the sand in the bottle rotate at high speed, it would mean that this step of the special training was nearly complete.

Just think about it, being able to watch TV while making the sand rotate perfectly, how skilled would one have to be?

Using watching TV as a lure to stimulate Eevee's motivation for special training was simply brilliant. With strong determination driving it, perhaps Eevee could soon get the hang of it and complete this step of the special training.

Moreover, in the future, it would subconsciously continue to practice while watching TV, perfectly utilizing its playtime...

Obviously, Eevee had been tricked again, willingly jumping into the pit.

In the process of matching wits with Fang Yuan, it ended in Eevee's defeat once more.

...

The next day.

Fang Yuan took his Eevee back to the Starshine Battle Club again.

This time it was still Uncle Shan who received them, but he did not directly take Fang Yuan to the training room they had used the day before.

"From today on, I won't join you for the Bite Technique training, I have other matters to tend to," Uncle Shan said.

"Okay." Fang Yuan nodded, he had clearly understood all the details Uncle Shan explained on the first day, so there was no problem with him and Eevee training on their own.

"By the way, Uncle Shan, is there any sparring work today?"

The salary for sparring at the Starshine Battle Club was settled daily. Yesterday, the bank card Fang Yuan left behind received a transfer of over 300 yuan, which excited him greatly. If there's one battle per day, that's over ten thousand a month.

Who could have thought that a job with a monthly income over ten thousand would be so easy?

"Not anymore, there are too few clients who need you as a sparring partner. Otherwise, the workload would not be so small and, more importantly, for the next few days, you shouldn't be focusing on making money but rather on making Eevee stronger."

"Do you still remember what I said I would help you with yesterday?" Uncle Shan asked again.

"I remember," Fang Yuan said, "helping Eevee learn the Bite Technique and then... helping it to unlock the full effects of the Sand Scale Fruit?!"

"That's correct," Uncle Shan nodded.

"Do you know why I said you and Eevee are lucky? Because for those formidable Professional Trainers, Sand Scale Fruit is also a strategic resource."

"Giving this kind of Tree Fruit to a Beginner Elf is truly extravagant."

Fang Yuan and Eevee listened intently, their eyes wide open.

"I suppose you must have looked up information about the Sand Scale Fruit," Uncle Shan asked.

"I found it on the internet," Fang Yuan replied casually, though he actually already knew.

"The Sand Scale Fruit is difficult to cultivate, and yield is low. The Trainer Association only cultivates a small amount and only distributes them to Professional Trainers during crucial secret location explorations. It's almost never sold to the public."

"Its effects should not be too different from the information you researched. It can stimulate a Pokemon's speed potential for a period, enhancing their speed. Don't underestimate this simple change. In the exploration of secret locations, if a Pokemon's speed is slightly faster, it may very well save the life of a Trainer."

"Another point, which is not recorded, is that in a certain sense, Sand Scale Fruit is not a one-time consumable. After stimulating a Pokemon's speed potential, it can also bring some phased benefits to the Pokemon. Although it won't make the Pokemon instantly stronger, it can subtly strengthen the Pokemon's body and improve the efficiency of training related to speed," he explained.

Fang Yuan said, "I have a question; why didn't Eevee's speed increase after consuming the Sand Scale Fruit?"

"Well, the reason might be related to the state you were in at the time, or perhaps it's because Eevee is too young, its body hasn't fully developed yet, and it can't absorb the energy from the Sand Scale Fruit. Some of the energy was lost while a portion merged into its body. So from now on, Eevee needs to undergo strict training focused on speed. Only then will it be able to dig out all the effects of the Sand Scale Fruit it ate," Uncle Shan said.

"Sand Scale Fruits are indeed rare and precious, but don't have too great of expectations. They won't incredibly boost you and Eevee's strength, unless you eat them like food, daily, which is unrealistic. However, if you seize this opportunity and train diligently, you will definitely be able to achieve good training outcomes in the short term—I can guarantee that," he added.

"This kind of opportunity is rare for you, so Yang Han has repeatedly told me to make sure to plan well for you. It would be a pity to waste such rare Sand Scale Fruits," Uncle Shan laughed.

"That's about all I have to say."

Speed training...

This was almost what Fang Yuan had anticipated; he had also thought about stimulating the effects of the Sand Scale Fruit through intense speed training.

The only thing he didn't know was, after a series of targeted training, how much would the four Sand Scale Fruits improve Eevee's speed.
