"Alright! Let's do some warm up!"
"Char!"
"Froakie!"
"Joltik!"
For a little warm-up, Gary and his Pokemons started jogging round and round in a clearing.
Then, stretching.
Then, a little hopping.
"Alright. It's time for real training to start."
The first thing Rin did in the ninja academy as the start of ninja training was learning to climb trees, normally.
To ensure that there is no fear of heights.
Gary looked at the tall tree, and the tress around it.
"Let's climb the trees."
Gary easily climbed the trees. Though he wasn't as fast due to his body not being of a ninja, he still came in first.
Joltik came in second.
Froakie came in third.
And Charmander was last.
"Char..."
Charmander was sad about it. Afterall, she is Gary's first Pokemon.
"Don't worry Charmander. Everyone has their own strength."
"Char..."
Gary got down from the tree, and so did the three.
"Alright. Let me show you. Hmm, alright, use Flamethrower on that tree."
"Char!"
The tree got burnt to the crisp and crumbled to dust.
"See?"
"Char!"
Gary now thought about what to teach the three.
Joltik knows Discharge, Leech Life and String Shot.
Charmander knows Flamethrower, Ember and Scratch.
And Froakie knows Water Gun and Bubble Beam. Frubbles is not a move.
'Hmm....
For Joltik, Electroweb and Thunderbolt
Electroweb is a given.
Thunderbolt is more reliable and powerful than Discharge. And I don't know how to teach him Thunder without seeing one myself.
Thunder will be better later because of his compound eyes.
For Charmander, Dragon Claw and Dragon Tail to be more effective against Water and Ground types.
Charmander is cute right now, so I want to teach her attract. I don't know if it is possible for her to learn it, but it will surely be impossible after evolving.
As for Froakie, I want to test out if he has Protean. Anime didn't really show it, but well, Ash's Greninja's moveset was trash.
So, reducing the curvature of Water gun and adding more pressure to it, Water Pulse and...
Agility!
I can have Joltik use String Shot before using Agility and after using Agility to test the effectiveness.
If String shot's effectiveness increases, it means that Froakie does have Protean.'
After having decided on the moves, Gary began the training.
Starting with physical.
"Joltik, use string shot on a tree branch and hang from it."
"Joltik!"
Joltik did as he was told, and hanged from the branch.
"Now hold the position for as long as you can. When you can't hold any longer, get on the ground and rest."
"Charmander, you try to stand on your tail."
"Char!"
"Froakie, I will be throwing small stones at you, you have to dodge."
"Froakie!"
'Ack! I completely forgot about Magikarp!'
He hadn't even introduced him to his team.
Taking out his fourth Pokeball, he took out Magikarp.
*Splash!* *Splash!*
Everyone got curious.
"This is your friend, Magikarp! Say hello to him."
"Char!"
"Froakie!"
"Joltik!"
Gary grabbed a stone and started digging.
After he was done, he said to Froakie.
"Fill it with water."
"Froakie!"
Froakie filled the small pond with water.
And Gary put Magikarp in it.
Then, he tied Magikarp to a big stone, and put some food in front of him.
Magikarp started trying to reach it, so his training began.
Gary himself started doing squats and started throwing small rocks at Froakie. Slowly at first so Froakie can adjust.
So, everyone's training has begun.
------------------
By the evening, everyone was exhausted.
Joltik managed to hold onto his string shot from the branch for whole 4 minutes.
Charmander managed to stand on his tail for around half a second before loosing balance.
Froakie managed to be able to dodge stones thrown at 1/4th of speed Gary can throw them at right now.
Magikarp completed his training in less than an hour.
And Gary managed to do 10 squats, 10 push-ups, 10 sit-ups, 10 pull-ups, and most importantly, running 500 laps of the small clearing, which accounts to somewhere around 20 to 25 kilometres. At a good speed.
If anything, he has always trained hard to be able to run away in a dangerous situation.
Gary got out of the forest and went to the Pokemon centre.
He hadn't gone too far in the forest, and though he could have trained outside it, Viridian City is Team Rocket's base.
Seeing Joltik and Froakie, they surely would be after him otherwise.
When he is strong enough, he is going to wipe out Team Rocket.
