Chapter 103 - 103: Encounter on the Train
"Thirty-one years... I simply shouldn't have gained this ability; they give you a bit of hope only to extinguish it with a bucket of water," Cain couldn't help but complain in his mind.
"It seems that trying to improve psychic abilities with just the training methods in this book won't be very likely. I still need the help of some external items. I hope the system can find something useful in the database."
The entire afternoon passed this way. The Pokémon also trained all afternoon. Since leaving Judgment Island, they hadn't had effective battles, so with their overflowing energy, they could only release it through training.
This should be Cain's last day in Saffron City, as tomorrow he will head to Goldenrod City in Johto.
After an early dinner, he gave his Pokémon a full massage. Except for Gastly, who could only watch enviously, Murkrow and the others relaxed a lot under Cain's skillful hands, easing their tense bodies after a whole day.
After watching his Pokémon sleep comfortably after the massage, Cain also wished Gastly goodnight before going to sleep.
As for Gastly, nighttime is his most active time. During the day, he can rest in Cain's shadow, so Gastly has always been the team's most resilient sentry.
Although the Pokémon Center is a very safe place, Gastly, who has the habit of staying up late, continued to keep watch.
...
The next morning, Cain and his Pokémon quickly finished breakfast and headed to Saffron City's central train station, the most convenient means of transportation connecting Kanto and Johto: the magnetic levitation train.
With his League ID card, he spent five thousand Pokédollars to buy a premium seat ticket on the magnetic levitation train. A car was divided into several small rooms, each with only two seats, which were extremely comfortable.
