Thus… with Peter's vague "uh-huh" responses and passive cooperation, Cynthia had already completed the entire story in her head.
A child born into poverty, orphaned at a young age, carrying a dream of understanding the world. He had escaped the orphanage multiple tis, surviving through years of begging. Every bit of money he saved was spent on books, studying tirelessly in harsh conditions.
Through countless days and nights of relentless effort, he eventually made a series of groundbreaking discoveries. Yet he treated fa and wealth like dirt, quietly continuing his research in obscurity…
Until one day, he t the girl he loved. For her sake, he stepped onto the path of becoming a master of Normal-type Pokémon—and displayed extraordinary talent as a Trainer.
After hearing Cynthia retell this entire "story," Peter's lips twitched like he'd just been electrocuted.
Even brainless web novels wouldn't dare write sothing this ridiculous, right???
But judging from Cynthia's expression, regardless of whether others believed it or not—she clearly believed every word.
Of course, part of this also had to do with Lucian's intelligence reports.
From Cynthia and her group's perspective, Peter possessed a special dream-related ability. Under such circumstances, producing knowledge that transcended regions and even eras seed entirely possible.
After all… when it cos to dreams, anything goes, right?
…
"Peter, do you want to beco a Pokémon Professor?" Cynthia suddenly asked.
"Uh… if I beco a Professor, can I still continue traveling?"
"Of course. You only need to publish your research. The League will evaluate your contributions and provide corresponding rewards. If you wish, you can even apply to build your own research institute and ecological base!"
"Well… in that case, I'd need so research staff to help ," Peter said, going along with Cynthia's assumptions.
"My previous conditions were quite harsh, and many of my manuscripts were lost. So right now, I only have the final conclusions—specific data and research suitable for public application still need further exploration."
"I see…" Cynthia nodded thoughtfully.
In her mind, this also explained why Peter hadn't directly revealed the thod of ga Evolution to Steven and the others, instead only providing general guidance.
"So no problem! Regarding Dynamax, I can help you contact the Pokémon League in the Galar region. I'm sure they'll be thrilled about the possibility of artificially controlling Dynamax!"
"Sounds good!"
…
Afterward, Peter briefly wrote down several core principles on two sheets of paper—such as the Key Stone and ga Stone required for ga Evolution, the bond between Trainer and Pokémon, and how Dynamax utilized Wishing Stars to absorb Dynamax energy.
These simple notes were presented as the "results of his many years of research" and handed to Cynthia.
"Wonderful… Now I can take a trip to Galar for sightseeing~!" Cynthia narrowed her eyes happily.
"I've heard they have so many different flavors of ice cream there…"
Peter: ...
After escorting Peter back to the Pokémon Center, Cynthia hurriedly rode off on her Garchomp.
According to her, she needed to imdiately depart to help Peter assemble a research team as soon as possible!
Peter strongly suspected she simply wanted to reach Galar before nightfall to eat ice cream.
With his research notes in hand, she could even receive the highest level of hospitality from Chairman Rose himself.
Becoming a Pokémon Professor ✘
Becoming Cynthia's tool for skipping work ✔
-----
Back in his room, Peter checked on all his Pokémon.
After a series of intense battles, their levels had improved significantly:
Lopunny Lv. 38
Arboliva Lv. 37
Indeedee Lv. 28
Slaking Lv. 35
Zorua Lv. 26
Rufflet Lv. 15
Taking out two cross-species move learning devices, Peter selected Arboliva and Slaking.
[Ding! Arboliva learned the move "Toxic," and Slaking learned the move "Magical Torque"!]
Toxic: Inflicts a badly poisoned state on the opponent. The poison damage triggers periodically, and the damage doubles with each activation.
Magical Torque: A Fairy-type physical move with 100 power. Has a high chance of confusing the target upon hitting.
Looking at the two new moves appearing in their skill lists, Peter's lips curled upward.
For a tank-type Pokémon like Arboliva, Toxic made it fearless in any prolonged battle.
With its excellent dual defenses, it wouldn't even need traditional stall tactics. Instead, it could run a shaless build of Substitute Leech Seed Strength Sap Toxic, combined with Leftovers and Grassy Terrain recovery…
A dual-drain, quadruple-healing setup with an almost unbreakable Substitute.
Utter despair for opponents.
As for the other move, Magical Torque, it was even more outrageous.
This move was only introduced in the ninth generation—Scarlet and Violet—and in the storyline, only the villainous Team Star's armored vehicles could use it. Those vehicles required multiple Pokémon to operate, making the move's power, effect, and range extrely impressive.
Just imagine Slaking transforming into a King Kong-like figure, unleashing a massive Fairy-type Magical Torque attack—the scene would be absolutely explosive.
Notably, after breaking through its species limits, Slaking's size had also increased. Its massive forelimbs were as hard as iron, giving it the imposing aura of a giant ape.
…
After feeding them, Peter handed his six Pokémon to Nurse Joy for comprehensive treatnt and inspection. anwhile, he carried two little bear cubs along with a pink-and-white Pokémon Egg and headed toward the Eterna Gym.
Gardenia's commission had already been delayed for two weeks.
Earlier, he had obtained so fresh Revival Herbs from Nurse Joy—over thirty plants in total. Thanks to his system inventory, he didn't need to worry about nutrient loss.
Now was the perfect ti to complete the task.
…
As he walked down the road, Peter edited footage of his battle with Cynthia using the Pokegear Mate 60.
Ever since posting updates about training alongside Cynthia, his follower base had stabilized at around 1.05 million.
Under such conditions, Peter could have returned to his old profession—livestreaming.
Unfortunately, livestreaming in this world was still a blank field. Moreover, he needed to travel constantly, and the necessary outdoor streaming equipnt was far from sufficient. The user experience simply couldn't compare to edited videos.
So he planned to wait until research results like the Rotom Dex or Rotom Phone were developed before considering it.
At the very least, Rotom could later help record and edit his journeys, saving him considerable effort.
-----
Arriving at the entrance of Eterna Gym, he put away his phone and gazed south.
Whitney's flight from Johto was scheduled to arrive in Jubilife City that afternoon.
Peter had originally planned to pick her up, but Cynthia's situation had delayed him. Instead, they agreed to et at the entrance of Eterna Gym—where he could also deliver the Revival Herbs to Gardenia.
"Binee~"
The two like Teddiursa cubs sat on Peter's shoulders, patting his head with their tiny paws.
"Alright, alright… I'll get you sothing to eat right away."
Peter took out a jar of Sweet Honey from his bag and placed it on the ground. The two little ones skillfully climbed down and began licking it with their tiny hands.
"Are these newly captured Teddiursa cubs? They're so cute!"
"Hm?" Peter froze and looked up.
A young girl stood before him, bending slightly with a gentle smile. Strands of light-blue hair fell softly around her face. Beneath her short skirt, her shapely thighs and straight calves wrapped in cotton socks radiated youthful vitality.
