Description: What a terrible day for Mawile.
As Kawaki's gaze swept over her, Mawile's information appeared in his mind.
"Mawile…"
Mawile has a yellow, doll-like body, but what is most striking is the huge mouth on her back, filled with sharp and keen teeth.
As far as Kawaki knew, Mawile was a cunning and terrifying Pokémon. They would use their docile appearance to make opponents lower their guard, then suddenly turn around and Bite them with their large jaws. Once they bit down, they would never let go, capable of biting through even steel.
However, the Mawile in front of him wasn't so fierce.
She had no expression on her face, just stood quietly in place, raising her head and looking at Kawaki with her eyes.
"Alright, the test begins!" Old Man Aiji announced.
Hearing this, all the candidates began to move.
Old Man Aiji's gaze turned to Kawaki, wanting to know what he would do.
But Kawaki simply squatted down, making himself seem less condescending.
He looked Mawile in the eye and said to her, "Hello, Mawile, I'm Kawaki. I'll be checking your body now and then helping you with treatment."
Mawile looked at the human in front of her. She hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently.
Witnessing this scene, Old Man Aiji nodded in approval.
Displaying affinity to a stranger Pokémon and building rapport with her allows for the Pokémon's cooperation.
And being able to make a Pokémon feel close and approach each other is also a necessary ability for a Breeder.
The other children didn't notice this at all!
Old Man Aiji turned his head to look at the others. Most of them had already started directly observing the condition of the Pokémon in front of them.
Although this assessment did not strictly require doing so, a Breeder who knew how to build a relationship with Pokémon was a true Breeder.
Kawaki didn't know what Old Man Aiji was thinking; he observed Mawile's physical condition.
And Mawile cooperated by extending her arms and turning around, allowing the human in front of her to examine her carefully.
After all, it was a beginner Breeder assessment, so the difficulty wouldn't be too great.
Kawaki quickly found a scorched mark in an inconspicuous corner behind Mawile.
Clearly, it was a mark left by an attack of a certain Fire-type move, the wound was small, suspected to be an Ember attack.
But unfortunately, Ember triggered an additional effect, causing a burn status condition to Mawile.
Aside from that, the rest of Mawile's body was quite healthy. Hmm? No, that's not right.
Kawaki suddenly noticed that some of the fangs in the large jaws behind Mawile were not quite right.
Normally, Mawile takes great care of her large jaws, and her teeth are almost white and shiny.
But this Mawile's teeth not only had whitish-brown marks but also showed signs of cavities. Kawaki reached out and touched them; some fangs had even started to loosen.
"This Mawile is a bit calcium deficient!"
Undoubtedly, the cause of all this was malnutrition.
This could not be resolved in a short time. After confirming that Mawile had no other problems, Kawaki stood up and reported all his findings to Old Man Aiji.
"…Mawile has burn marks on her back, the marks are small, suspected to be caused by a move called Ember. Not only that, Mawile's teeth are also somewhat unhealthy, with loose teeth and cavities. She will need to supplement her nutrition in the future."
Old Man Aiji nodded continually as he listened.
Not bad, he even noticed the extra credit points.
His gaze towards Kawaki became even more satisfied.
"Did you read all this in books?" he asked.
Kawaki was a bit confused but still replied, "When I used to be bored with nothing to do, I would read some books about Pokémon."
"I see." Old Man Aiji smiled, "Now, go find something that can treat Mawile!"
Kawaki nodded. He went to the piles of herbs and berries behind and quickly found a Cheri Berry for treating burns among them.
After feeding this berry to Mawile, the burn marks on her back quickly healed at a visible speed.
"Koo-koo~"
No longer in pain, Mawile let out a grateful Growl.
"Alright, you've passed your assessment." Old Man Aiji's purpose in coming here was for Kawaki.
Full marks on both the written and oral exams, which meant that the young man in front of him undoubtedly had the qualifications to become a beginner Breeder!
However, what concerned Old Man Aiji even more was that at this age, with such talent, this child was a great genius!
He followed Kawaki to Junsha Chun, who was waiting outside.
Junsha Chun looked at Kawaki, then at the excited Old Man Aiji behind Kawaki, and asked,
"Mr. Aiji, how were Kawaki's test results?"
"Full marks, both the written and oral exams, all full marks!" Old Man Aiji's eyes shone brightly, "Little Kawaki, are you willing to study with me? I will teach you all my knowledge. As long as you are willing to work hard, even becoming a top Breeder is not a problem!"
Hearing this, Kawaki hadn't reacted yet, but Junsha Chun beside him was stunned.
Little Kawaki… is he really that amazing?
Genius… She had heard that the Miss Jenny who left the family was also a genius in Pokémon breeding.
Kawaki shook his head and politely declined, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Aiji, but I'm currently running a Breeding House, and there are many Pokémon waiting for me to take care of them there. I can't leave at the moment."
"A Breeding House?" Old Man Aiji was stunned.
"Kawaki inherited his mother's legacy and decided to continue running that abandoned Breeding House," Junsha Chun explained.
Hearing this, Old Man Aiji immediately understood.
So this kid came to take the Breeder assessment just to get the qualification to run a Breeding House!
What a waste of talent!
Such talent… not to continue cultivating in breeding, but to run a Breeding House, this is truly a waste of talent, isn't it?!
However, after obtaining the beginner Breeder qualification, Kawaki planned to leave.
He and Junsha Chun thanked Old Man Aiji, and then left the Breeder Association.
Watching their retreating figures, Old Man Aiji was almost in a Flail; he had almost seen a rising new star in the breeding world, but that star didn't want to ascend.
No!
Old Man Aiji didn't want to give up. He made up his mind to go to that kid's Breeding House later and persuade him properly.
On the road.
It was still Junsha Chun riding the motorcycle, taking Kawaki back to the Breeding House.
Junsha Chun sighed, "It seems you've inherited your mother's talent!"
Kawaki didn't know what to say. He was silent for a moment, then said, "Thank you for this time, Miss Jenny."
"You're welcome. After all, you're also a part of the Jenny Family. We are related by blood, so helping you is what I should do!" Junsha Chun shook her head, then suddenly glanced at Kawaki, "If possible, I actually hope you can call me Big Sister."
Kawaki: "…" What if I can't say it?
Junsha Chun didn't force him. She turned to talk about serious matters.
"Now that you have obtained the beginner Breeder qualification, I will submit it to the Hoenn League. They should be able to send those Pokémon eggs tomorrow."
