Chapter 692: Progress
"Brother, come out. I want to show you how good I am. I have trained a lot in these 3 months.", said Agnes.
Axel didn\'t want to train right now but after being pestered by his sister for some time, he got fresh and moved to the training ground.
"Alright, Agnes. Show me your best moves.", said Axel.
"Are you sure? You might get hurt.", said Agnes.
"Haha, don\'t worry. I will not."
Agnes charged towards Axel and gave a solid punch, but Axel dodged the attack with ease. Agnes then turned her body and went for a roundhouse kick which was blocked by Axel with his left hand. Agnes used a variety of moves but Axel was able to dodge and defend it perfectly. After 20 minutes, Agnes got tired and sat on the ground.
"Sigh, how can you be so powerful? I cannot even land a single hit.", said Agnes.
"I have been doing this for many years. It would take some time for you. But you did great for training only for 3 months.", said Axel and patted her head.
"Thanks, bro."
"So, do you still want to become a trainer?"
"Yes, I have always wanted to. Why are you asking me this question?", asked Agnes.
"Agnes, I just want you to have all the options. When I started my journey, I didn\'t have many options but you do. Being a trainer is one of the most difficult professions out there. So, I just want to be sure that you are up to the task."
"I am up to the task. I am far better than those 3 sisters and I am better than a normal 9 years old. You know that."
"I know that but sometimes being ahead of your peers is still not enough."
"What do you mean?"
"You will learn it when you get older. Now let\'s have a shower. I want to see the progress of my young Pokemons."
"Oh, you will be surprised.", said Agnes with a smile.
###
After a good shower, Axel called all 4 of them to the training ground. Agnes\'s Squirtle also went running to show its progress. Axel\'s Squirtle was proud of itself for some reason and it had its chin unusually high. Axel wanted to know what they were planning.
In these 3 months, these 5 Pokemons had officially been called the 5 musketeers. It was because they were very naughty. They slept for 5 hours in the afternoon and didn\'t sleep at night. So, the Blaze family could also not sleep at night. They would do a lot of harmless pranks to everyone and they had become a menace not only in the household but also in the neighborhood.
Axel\'s Squirtle was the leader of their group. Not because it was the strongest but because it was like a gangster. Axel was already having a headache listening to it.
However, since they were so active as babies, they were loved immensely by the Blaze family and also the neighbors.
Axel first looked at Squirtle\'s stats:

---
Axel was surprised by its progress. It must be remembered that it was only 3 and a half months old. Baby Pokemons were told to not train heavily in the starting months but that didn\'t mean that they could not train. Just light training.
Agnes had told me that they only started to seriously train after 2 months. So, how the hell were its stats so high? Axel was surprised. It had also trained on its moves and had also learned \'Skull bash\'.
Axel wanted it to be a tank and a defensive Pokemon. Blastoise was known for its defense and Axel lacked a proper defensive Pokemon. He had Pokemons like Steelix, but Steelix had too many weaknesses and he needed another defensive Pokemon. There was also Gogoat who was now focused on being a tank but it mainly focused on healing moves and status moves rather than defending it by itself and Axel needed other defensive type Pokemons as in the future he would be focusing on tide battles.
"You have trained really well. I want you to be a tank. Do you know what a tank really is?", asked Axel.
Squirtle shook its head. It had never heard of such a word.
"A tank is someone who would take hits and defend its friends. A tank would also charge at the front and wreak everything when time calls for it.
Now, going in the direction of a tank is your choice cause I will not force you into it but if you decide to become one you must focus on it. So, do you want to become a tank?", asked Axel.
Squirtle immediately nodded its head but also shook its head at the same time. Axel used his aura powers to know that it wanted to play defensive but it didn\'t want to go for the attack.
Squirtle nature was very peculiar. It was extremely lazy. It didn\'t want to do all the hard work and fight and attack. It would rather sleep and enjoy its life. However, after training, it found out that defending attacks were too easy for it.
It may be due to its body as Blastoise was known to have an extreme defense or due to its shell but it loved defending against attack. However, it never wanted to attack actively unless it was angry beyond reason.
Basically, it didn\'t want to move.
After some talks, it agreed to defend, power up its allies, and protect them and also use some special attack moves that didn\'t require it to move. It was very lazy.
Axel was happy with the outcome. That was what he had planned and he was happy that Squirtle agreed to it.
"Now, let me tell you the power of defense and status moves. All of you come here. I will tell you a powerful story of Tobirama Senju.", said Axel.
Axel went on to tell the story of Tobirama Senju. This mainly covered the special attack part but it also showed how powerful water-type moves could be.
Axel then started to tell how water type was called one of the most powerful types in his opinion.
"Fire is mainly for attack, grass is for regeneration and healing, psychic is mainly for confusion. That is what we think of when we think of these types. But what is good about water type?
Many think that water type is very normal as it doesn\'t excel in anything. Yes, it is true but that is what makes water type one of the strongest type."
Both of the Squirtle were surprised to hear it. Axel\'s Squirtle also came an inch closer to hear it more.
Axel then went a bit forward and took a bottle of water and a glass. He first drops some water in the ground and then some in the glass.
"If you put water in the ground, it would flow in the ground. If you put water in a glass, it becomes the glass. If you put water in a jar, it becomes a jar. This is the power of water.
Water can become anything and do anything. You want speed, the speed of water is enormous. You want attack, the piercing effect of water can pierce anything, even the strongest object. If you want it for a cooling effect, water can turn into ice and if you want heat, it can also heat into boiling point.
You want it for defense, a concentrated body of water can defend a lot. You can even be immune to electricity."
At this point, both of the Squirtle raise their eyebrows to confirm if they heard it right. One of their weakness was the electric type and now they were hearing that they could be immune to it.
"Yes, you heard me right. You can be immune to the electric type. If you want to learn it, then you will have to train hard and I will teach you."
Axel was telling them this story for only one reason. They were kids and kids would not work hard unless you tell them stories. Axel could see that he had done a good job.
He then turned towards 3 Magnemites to see their progress.

What could he say? All of them had learned \'Thunder wave\' and Magnemite no 2 had also learned \'Electric terrain\'. They had also made a lot of progress in training their ability and hidden ability. Axel was happy that all of them, including Squirtle had already unlocked their hidden ability.
Hidden ability was called hidden cause it needed to be unlocked. It was not so hard to do it if you had the knowledge of what hidden ability they had but it still took some time to do it.
Due to their passive move \'Co-exist\', all the moves would be merged and added. So, Axel had some thinking to do. Would he want all 3 of them to learn different moves and have a variety of moves or would he want all 3 of them to learn the same moves and have higher mastery of those moves?
Axel thought to give this some thought and take some time.
"Now, do you all want to hear the power of electromagnetic waves?", asked Axel as all of the 5 musketeers were excited to know about it.
"First of all, you only have the power of electromagnetic waves but electromagnetism as a whole. So, first of all, before I explain the definition of it, I must tell you that it is very powerful. It is one of the most powerful forces in the whole universe."
All 5 of them gasped after hearing it. Well, it was true. This world had not discovered a variety of uses of electromagnetism. But Earth had done a lot of research on it. Of course, Axel was a scientist in this old world, so he didn\'t have minute details on it but he knew the effects and the basics. That was enough.
