Chapter 440 - 439: Slowking’s Evolution Method
Upon hearing what old Matsuda had just said, Professor Oak looked at Cain with slight surprise in his eyes.
Open a Gym?
He hadn't expected Cain, who had been widely publicized on television as the future leader of breeders, to have intentions of opening a gym.
Was he planning to pursue both paths simultaneously?
"If he wants to open a gym, given his current status within the Breeders Guild, there shouldn't be any issue. Those elders will surely speak in his favor," Professor Oak commented.
The "elders" Oak referred to were clearly very senior individuals.
It couldn't be helped—breeders were known for their longevity.
Except for a few, the elders of the Breeders Guild were some of the highest-ranking people within the League.
"Exactly, there's no issue with him opening a gym now. What I didn't expect was this kind of result. That boy demonstrated something during his exam that truly surprised those elders."
"Before taking the exam, he told me he wanted to present a new Pokémon evolution method to the League. He asked me to use a few words from you and me to help him gain the opportunity to open a gym," old Matsuda explained.
"And if possible, it would be ideal to also get him the title of researcher. That way, the results he delivers would bear his name, making them more impactful."
