This was a massive change. Maybe Nidorino had become an uncommon ranked Pokemon or maybe it was due to its training, but the stats were high. Really high. Its health was 450!. Just 2 minutes ago, when it was still Nidoran, its health was only 200. But the evolution increased it more than 2 times. ‘Focus energy’, ‘Horn attack’, ‘Sludge bomb’ and ‘earth quake’ had leveled up to 15, 25, 23 and 10 respectively. Those were the 4 moves that Nidoran had focused on. Other moves have also leveled up a bit. Nidoran may have focused on 4 moves, but it had not completely neglected other moves.

All of its poison-type moves have leveled up by 5 when it evolved. ‘Venom drench’, ‘Poison sting’ and ‘sludge bomb’ were leveled 4, 3 and 18 before evolution. This change had shocked Axel. The implication of this change may be huge on future evolutions if he played his cards right.

But Axel was disappointed when his eyes fell into its potential. Its potential had not increased. There was still another evolution left for Nidorino so he had not lost all hope.

By this time, the system had already calculated the rewards

——————

Ding! The rewards had been calculated.

Ding! Congratulation! You have been rewarded with an upgrade stone. The upgrade stone has been stored in your inventory.

Ding! Congratulation! You have unlocked a new function, Inventory

——————

‘I have finally unlocked the inventory function. I now feel like the protagonist of a novel. And what is this upgrade stone?’ thought Axel. He thought to look at ‘Inventory’ function first but was disappointed again. It was like a classic inventory of any system novel or Virtual reality games novel but there was a condition. He could only store those items that have been rewarded by the system. That was a low blow.

He then looked at the information on upgrade stone.

This was a new thing. These types of stones didn’t exist in the Pokemon world and it was purely given by the system. But the description of it was very vague. It could not upgrade all of the items and may not work on higher-quality items. How much quality is higher quality? Well, still he got something interesting.

Looking over Nidoran’s stats again, there was another thing that surprised him. It was its stats. All of them were F ranked. As he had witnessed it from Weedle’s evolution, he knew that after a Pokemon evolves, all of its stats would change to F rank. But since all of Nidoran’s stats were maximum, he had thought that some of them would be higher than F. But he was wrong.

He understood now that he could not trust system’s ranking as it was not accurate. If Axel had evolved Nidoran 15 days ago, when most of its stats were B ranked, then all of its stats after evolution would be F. But he evolved Nidoran when all of its stats were S ranked and after evolution, its stats still changed into F. But Axel was sure the latter would beat the formal easily with a swipe of its claws. This was a glitch in the system and he would exploit it fully.

Axel wanted Nidorino to take a day off and have some much-deserved rest. But since it just evolved, its body was brimming with energy. It didn’t train today but it was jumping around with joy. All of Axel’s Pokemon congratulated Nidorino. Even the Pokemons of the 3 brothers were congratulating Nidorino. Reaching an uncommon rank was a great feat. But there was one Pokemon who didn’t seem to care. It was Nidorina.

Nidorino also didn’t give a shit about it. It had decided that it would train even harder from tomorrow. Though it had evolved to its final evolution like Nidorina (Nidorino had already forgotten about its final evolution that Axel had told before), it knew that it was still weak to Nidorina. It had seen Nidorina fight with Mankey group and Primeape and knew that it would not last long if it challenged it now.

It was already night when the group decided to eat. It was Axel’s treat today. Though the 3 brothers were happy because of the free meal, they were depressed too. 2 of Axel’s Pokemon had evolved within a month and all of his Pokemons were growing very fast including Axel. Axel had still not given up on his training.

His training on Aura was finally showing some noticeable improvement. He still could not manipulate as he wished but sometimes, he would feel different when he was meditating. He could have a good sense of his surroundings and could feel his Pokmeon’s mental state. But this only happened sometimes.

But K had improved a lot in his Aura training compared to Axel. Maybe he had been living in Venu family for too long where the flow of infinity energy was higher or had a natural talent for it, but he could feel the Aura as long as he concentrated enough.

The research on Eeveelutions was also going in the right direction. Mark and Axel were convinced now that they would get a positive result after some time.
