In contrast to the skills training of Golbat, Nidoran, and Growlithe progressing steadily, Bellossom was still slowly mastering the move Hidden Power.
As a Grass-type Pokémon, Bellossom had exceptional control over Grass energy, which made her proficient in training various Grass-type moves.
However, her ability to control other types of energy could only be described as diocre.
Since Bellossom was not a Rock-type Pokémon by nature and was currently in an environnt where Water-type energy was very active—being at sea rather than in a rocky cave—sensing Rock-type energy in the surrounding atmosphere had been a real challenge for her.
Considering Bellossom's current training difficulties, Sato currently had no better solution and could only have her steadily continue practicing Hidden Power with a Rock-type attribute.
This move was extrely important for Bellossom. Until she could beco proficient with it, Sato wouldn't be changing her skill training focus anyti soon.
anwhile, Golbat, who had been training Hidden Power with an Electric-type attribute in the Electric Terrain, initially took about 30 seconds to use it once.
However, with repeated use, his perception and control over Electric energy had significantly improved, and his proficiency with the move was rapidly increasing.
On the other hand, Bellossom, lacking any special training buffs, needed much more ti to use Hidden Power with a Rock-type attribute, requiring nearly two minutes each ti.
Fortunately, Bellossom was patient and hadn't shown any frustration about the slow pace of mastering a non-native move. She continued training the Rock-type Hidden Power steadily.
With the high-quality PokeBlocks that Sato provided, Bellossom had ample stamina, which allowed her to train at a considerably faster pace than most Pokémon would in her situation.
"I'll need to find a rocky terrain for Bellossom once we're back on land. Training Water-type and Flying-type moves here at sea is ideal, but the Rock-type energy is just too scarce here to train efficiently," Sato thought as he observed Bellossom carefully drawing out and gathering small brown orbs of Rock energy with so difficulty.
Seeing Bellossom's training progressing without major issues, Sato turned his attention to the new mber, Mudkip.
Perhaps due to being confined in a PokeBall for so long, Mudkip was happily swimming in a circular pool, displaying a stark contrast from his initially stoic deanor towards Sato.
In the water, Mudkip had transford into a little dynamo, swimming fast laps around the pool.
Despite nearly half an hour of continuous swimming, he showed no sign of fatigue, darting around with energy, like a Pokemon with ADHD.
Sato estimated that with a pool radius of about 8 ters, each lap was roughly 25 ters. Over the past half hour, Mudkip had likely completed nearly 200 laps.
And judging by Mudkip's still-energetic state, he looked ready to keep going for quite so ti.
For the recently-joined Mudkip, Sato hadn't established a full training plan yet. With his current level at only 12 and his overall developnt not ideal, there was still work to be done.
Most importantly, Mudkip still seed a bit wary of him. Building a trusting bond would take so ti and shared experiences.
Of course, Mudkip was a Water-type starter Pokémon with solid potential. Eventually, he would evolve into the powerful Swampert with ga Evolution capability.
Swampert, a Water/Ground type, had strong type resistances with impressive HP and defenses; it could also learn Ice-type moves that countered Grass-type Pokémon effectively.
All in all, Swampert would make an excellent tank for the team, and once ga Evolved, combined with Rain Dance, he could easily switch into a formidable attacker.
Unlike younger Pokémon like Nidoran and Growlithe, Mudkip had survived in the wild for a while, which had instilled a certain maturity.
His knack for blending in reflected his experience surviving nature's challenges.
Mudkip was definitely a Pokémon that had been toughened up by nature's tests.
As a result, Sato wasn't worried about Mudkip's developnt being affected by intense training or rapid leveling.
He believed that, before long, this ntally mature Mudkip would be ready to beco his third primary battler.
But for now, if Mudkip was to take on a tank role in the team, Sato knew he'd need to bulk him up. Mudkip's current size was not up to par—he needed to beco more robust.
"Alright, Mudkip, co back up to rest. You've swum close to 300 laps by now. Ti to let those muscles recover. Here, have so PokeBlocks to recharge," Sato said, calculating the laps and addressing Mudkip, who had just swum up to him.
He then took out a few high-quality PokeBlocks.
Upon hearing this, Mudkip paused, giving Sato a cautious glance before lighting up at the sight of the PokeBlocks. He swiftly leapt out of the water.
With one gulp, Mudkip swallowed the three PokeBlocks Sato handed him and began chewing slowly. The delicious flavor imdiately invigorated him, and his tired body felt refreshed.
After tasting Sato's gem-grade PokeBlocks earlier in the day, Mudkip had beco very fond of them.
The PokeBlocks had given him such an energy boost that he didn't feel tired even after all the laps he swam around the pool.
A smart Pokémon, Mudkip quickly understood that these small PokeBlocks were special. Tasting them again confird his thoughts.
But as Sato reached out to pet Mudkip's head, he was t with a swift dodge. Mudkip's fin twitched slightly, and he deftly evaded the attempted head pat, even splashing a light Water Gun at Sato's face in the process.
Mudkip then leapt back into the water and eyed Sato sowhat warily from a safe distance.
"Looks like I'll need to work on gaining his trust first; otherwise, everything else will be futile," Sato thought, feeling a bit awkward as he pulled his now-soaked hand back, offering a small smile to Mudkip, who peeked out from the water.
For now, it was clear that Mudkip's feelings toward Sato were more food-based than trust-based. True trust would still take so ti to build.
