Chapter 510 - 509: Incredible Potential
"I'm just a beginner-level psychic, which isn't very helpful in everyday life. Only in battles, where I can use telepathy, can I gain a slight advantage," Cain said with a shrug.
However, hearing this, Steven felt like Cain was saying something akin to, "It's just like winning five million in the lottery, an insignificant amount of money."
While Steven didn't care much about such sums of money, the sentiment was clear.
"I, as one of the wealthiest in the Hoenn region, don't I have my own pride?"
So Steven simply nodded calmly, extinguishing the last trace of envy in his heart.
"I can only say, Cain, you truly have an exceptional talent!" Steven said in an even tone.
"It's just a matter of luck. Do you remember my Slowpoke? It's already evolved," Cain replied.
He then took out a Pokéball and released Slowking.
"This is..." Upon seeing the Pokémon Cain summoned—though it stood upright like a Slowpoke—it was over two meters tall.
Could this really be that clumsy Slowpoke?
"Is this Slowking?" Though it was phrased as a question, the meaning was clear.
