Chapter 556 - 555: Larvitar’s Steel Stomach
After a simple investigation of the surroundings, Cain discovered that apart from the high level and complex variety of Pokémon in the area, there wasn't much difference between this place and the forest where he had trained before.
After all, the ecological chain here had already stabilized.
Fortunately, he found a relatively safe meadow.
Although there was no shelter from the wind or rain and nowhere to hide, at least the area was secure.
Cain chose an elevated spot where there weren't too many wild Pokémon and decided to spend the night there.
He took out a tent from his backpack along with some basic outdoor survival equipment. Since it was the first day on Mythical Island, he decided not to light a fire, as the environment wasn't completely safe.
This time, Cain had purchased a sturdier tent with a special camouflage pattern that allowed it to change colors based on its surroundings. For example, in the meadow, the tent's light green color blended well with the nighttime environment.
He then scattered some powders around the tent to repel insects and ward off certain weaker Pokémon. This would help keep bugs and low-level Pokémon away, though the effect was limited to that.
After distributing food and Pokéblocks to his Pokémon, he also released his five small companions.
For this expedition, Cain had brought all his Pokémon along—not because he needed their help in battle, but so he could train them better while they stayed by his side.
Sometimes, Cain thought about the possibility of finding a truly reliable Pokémon trainer to serve as his support. They wouldn't need to do much, just help Cain take care of the Pokémon he wasn't actively carrying.
