Hearthome City - Pokémoer
Returning the Poké Balls to his pocket, Paul pulled out his Pokédex to s Dewott.
Even without the s, Paul already had a clear grasp of Dewott's potential. However, using the Pokédex was essential—not only to firm its capabilities but also to gather vital information about the Pokémon.
A petent Trainer must always keep track of their Pokémon’s basic details, including their known moves. This is a fual skill.
Even Ash Ketchum, ba the early days of his journey, at least khe moves his Pokémon could use.
Paul certainly wasn’t going to embarrass himself in battle by calling for "Water Gun" and havi unleash a perfectly executed Hydro Pump instead.

“This potential... not bad.” Paul remarked after reviewing the data.
bining the Pokédex information with his observations, Paul cluded that Dewott's overall potential was at least on par with his Electabuzz and Turtwig.
In terms of using its scalchops as bdes, Dewott was undoubtedly exceptional, demonstrating top-tier talent in this area.
It was this skill that e to master moves like Swords Dance, Fury Cutter, Night Ssh, and Aerial Ace—teiques reliant on scalchop precision.
This talent made Dewott a Pokémon worth iing in for further training. Its future was bright.
After taking a moment to pose himself, Paul approached the unicator and dialed Reggie.
“Why are you calling me so te, Paul? I’ve been waiting forever!”
Reggie, who had been expeg the call for some time, expressed mild annoyance.
“I was busy. I just traded my Kabuto for a Dewott with arainer.” Paul expined curtly.
The Kabuto, while talented, had a zy personality that didn’t suit Paul. However, it was ideal for many other Trainers.
“A Dewott? Sounds like a promising trade.”
“It got a strong spirit and a desire to grow stronger.” Paul replied.
“Well, as long as you’re satisfied. Speaking of Fossil Pokémon, I should thank you again for the eight Fossil Pokémon you sehey’ve been incredibly helpful for the breeders at my daycare to study.”
Reggie wasn’t g Fossil Pokémon at his daycare, but the ones Paul provided—desdants of a species that had adapted to modern enviros—were invaluable for research.
“For breeders, studying these Pokémon offers insights into raising the revived ones.” Reggie tinued.
“I’m gd they were helpful. By the way, you send Ursaring bae? I’ll seabuzz to you ter.”
Paul’s main purpose for tag Reggie was te for the transfer of their Pokémon. While Electabuzz needed a bit more time, Ursaring’s training was plete and ready to return.
“Sure, give me a moment.” Reggie said, stepping off-s to initiate the transfer.
Soon, the Poké Ball taining Ursaring arrived at Paul’s traation.
“I’ve received it. Thanks, Reggie. I’ll seabuzz ter.”
“Take your time. I’m always avaible.” Reggie said with a warm smile.
Paul was about to hang up when Reggie stopped him.
“Wait! Don’t hang up just yet—I’ve got someone here who wants to say hello.”
Paul turned, notig Nurse Joy standing behind him with a sheepish smile.
“Hi there! Let me borrow your brother for a moment.” Nurse Joy said, stig out her tongue pyfully.
Paul, uanding the situatiohe room quietly to give them privacy.
Pokémoer Courtyard
The evening was calm and quiet. Paul walked to a secluded spot, released all his Pokémon and leaned against a tree.
“e out, everyone.”
“Buzz!”“Twiig!”“Vuul!”“Chaa!”“Ursaa!”
Excluding Gible, who was still back at Reggie’s daycare practig Dragon Dahe rest of Paul’s team emerged, eager to i.
“Rex. This is your downtime.” Paul said, his tone unusually gentle as he gazed at his Pokémon.
Rather than formally introdug Dewott, Paul let his team bond naturally. Soon, the Pokémon began mingling and exging greetings.
Electabuzz strutted fidently over to Ursaring, sizing up the t bear.
“Buzz!”
It raised an eyebrow, w how Ursaring had grown se.
“Ursa!”
Flexing its muscles proudly, Ursaring responded with a grin.
Electabuzz smirked and spped Ursaring’s leg, inviting it to a friendly petition of strength.
Meanwhile, Turtwig and Vulpix approached Dewott, weling the new addition with curiosity and warmth.
Dewott nodded in aowledgment, pleased with the camaraderie of its eammates.
Electabuzz and Ursaring wrestling nearby, Dewott felt a sense of belonging it hadn’t experienced before.
It tur with a determined gaze.
“I want to challenge you!”
Turtwig g Paul, then shook its head gently. It expihat battles and interaining could wait until tomorrow.
For now, this was a time to rest, bond, and share experiences.
Eveabuzz and Ursaring were merely testing their strength, avoiding the use of moves to keep things lighthearted.
Uanding, Dewott withdrew to an open space. It uhed its scalchops, closed its eyes, and began practig its sword teiques.
In the past, Dewott had beeant and overly passionate in battles, adhering rigidly to form and honor.
But now, it had embraced a new philosophy: ruthless precision.
Sometimes, ruthlessness in battle was necessary to secure a victory. And outside of battle, ruthlessness could be the key to personal growth and transformation.
The scalchops dahrough the air, creating an unyielding rhythm like the relentless waves of the o.
As Paul g his team—some sparring, others refleg or honing their skills—he felt a rare moment of peace.
The night was long, yet fleeting.
