Chapter 580 - 579: The Secret of the Sandy Terrain and Training
Cain found many interesting items in Shuichi's storage space. In addition, he also uncovered a large quantity of minerals.
Evidently, as Shuichi was a trainer specializing in Ground- and Rock-type Pokémon, most of his Pokémon belonged to these types, and the minerals were their primary food.
Cain noticed that Shuichi had divided the minerals into two piles.
One pile consisted of regular-quality minerals, which Shuichi had likely prepared before arriving at the island. These minerals, while considered ordinary by Cain and Steven's standards, would be deemed very high-quality by most others.
The other pile was clearly obtained on Mythical Island. The minerals in this pile were of similar quality to those Cain had previously acquired.
As he examined Shuichi's storage space, Cain found a considerable amount of diamonds, similar to the ones his Pokémon, Larvitar and Aron, had been eating.
In fact, there were more diamonds here than Cain had obtained from mining minerals earlier.
Observing the diamonds, Cain noticed they weren't just identical in quality to the ones he had acquired but were also remarkably similar in brilliance and transparency, which surprised him.
Typically, diamonds from the same mine have subtle differences, but these appeared completely identical.
