Chapter 659 - 658: Preparing a Plan
When Cain arrived in Fallarbor Town, it was already the second day.
He had spent two days training Larvitar and Aron on Route 114, focusing on improving their combat skills.
By the time he reached Fallarbor Town, Larvitar had reached level 15, gaining three levels, while Aron, already at level 20, hadn't leveled up further.
For Pokémon, this not only represented a level increase but also an improvement in experience and combat techniques.
No matter how much you train, it's in real battles where combat techniques truly become part of your strength.
Unlike the first group of Pokémon, who faced constant invisible dangers on the Trial Island, forcing them to grow and strengthen quickly to survive, the second group of Pokémon had a much calmer life, allowing them to grow steadily.

Fallarbor Town is one of the largest towns in the Hoenn region, similar to Verdanturf Town.
The most important building in Fallarbor Town is the Contest Hall, a venue where the League regularly holds contest competitions. By comparison, the town's gym isn't as well-known.
Fallarbor Town is located on the opposite side of Mt. Chimney. Unlike Verdanturf Town's fresh air, Fallarbor Town is surrounded by volcanic ash floating year-round, giving the place a grayish appearance.
However, these mineral-rich volcanic ashes allow vegetation in Fallarbor Town to grow lushly.
