Chapter 188 - 188: Absorption Completed
Since some things can't be guessed, it's best to capture the two Grimer and study them more closely.
Although they're quite smelly, when it comes to something that could yield great profits in the future, the bad smell becomes less important.
"Slowpoke, use Confusion and control the larger Grimer. Sneasel, Icy Wind, freeze them. Murkrow, Dark Pulse."
Determined, Cain gave the order to attack.
At that moment, the coordination among the Pokémon became clear. Slowpoke and Murkrow, the instant Cain gave the command, stopped covering their noses, despite the unpleasant odor, and didn't let it affect their performance in battle.
Sneasel, although it didn't question why Cain decided to attack, hesitated for half a second before acting.
Cain noticed this but said nothing more. After all, the synchronization with Sneasel wasn't perfect yet. However, he was confident that with a few more days of training, they'd achieve full coordination.
Slowpoke enveloped the two Grimer with the Confusion move, focusing mainly on the larger Grimer, which had higher potential. Sneasel quickly followed with Icy Wind.
After a full day of training with Ice-type moves, Sneasel had improved considerably, showing signs that it was about to fully master the moves.
Since Sneasel had a natural talent for Ice-type moves, its previous lack of mastery was due to the fact that, in the Ice Cave where it lived, Pokémon had strong resistance to Ice-type moves, leading Sneasel to not pay much attention to those moves.
For this reason, despite its high potential, Sneasel didn't have an easy life in the Ice Cave.
