Pokémon Court

Three days later, on a clear morning, Terrance disembarked from the cruise ship heading towards Lilycove City in the Hoenn region. During the three-day sea journey, Terrance hadn’t trained his Pokémon, allowing him to rest well. As a result, he was in high spirits and full of energy.

Four Pokémon also enjoyed a rare break, relaxing their tense nerves and taking it easy for a while.

“Hello, welcome to Lilycove City,” a welcoming voice came from the official service personnel of the cruise ship. The disembarking guests smiled and walked towards the designated direction at the harbor.

…

…

“Please give me a newspaper,” a person with dark brown-colored short hair reached out, taking the newspaper and casually scanning through it.

The Intermediate Breeder exam was approaching, and Lilycove City was becoming lively.

Although not as bustling as the Champion challenge at Indigo Plateau, it was still a significant day for the Breeder community.

Becoming an Intermediate Breeder wasn’t as simple as Junior Breeder…

Professors, researchers, and doctors, the most outstanding ones among these professions, formed the foundation of most Pokémon research-related careers at the Breeder’s current level of development.

If Junior Breeder represented high school-level knowledge, then the knowledge required for Intermediate Breeder was intricate and profound, posing the most challenging and detestable questions for those aiming for high scores.

Intermediate Breeders also have a fixed income. While not necessarily being able to live a life of luxury everyday, it was at least enough to sustain oneself and support a family.

Moreover, an excellent Trainer was inevitably an outstanding Breeder.

However, the reverse wasn’t necessarily true – an outstanding Breeder might not be an excellent Trainer.

To be honest, Terrance felt a bit uneasy participating in the Intermediate Breeder exam, considering that only two years had passed since his Junior Breeder exam.

Twelve years old…..his age was even younger than the average age of Junior Breeders.

“Genius Female Breeder Suzie has arrived in Lilycove City—”

“Surprise! It’s rumored that five Joys are participating simultaneously.”

“Predicting the ten most likely questions for this exam—”

“Johto’s renowned Senior Breeder Mr. Lynn’s disciple declares ambition to become champion—”

Holding the newspaper, Terrance went through the recent hot topics in Lilycove City. As the exam approached, Junior Breeders of various backgrounds gathered in Lilycove City.

Among them were those seeking Breeder status for a stable job.

Some wanted to prove their breeder skills for higher honors.

There were also pure breeding enthusiasts, continuously striving for more resources and deeper research.

“I hope I’m not featured in here…” Terrance suddenly cautiously observed his surroundings, attempting to spot any paparazzi, but so far, he hadn’t found anything.

However, even if Terrance was exposed, it shouldn’t happen so quickly after his arrival in Lilycove City.

Unlike the Junior Breeder exam, participants in the Intermediate Breeder exam were already elite candidates selected through multiple rounds.contemporary romance

With the foundation of a Junior Breeder, participating in the Intermediate Breeder exam, the results will not be too bad even if they are the worst.

This is also a test of luck. If the results are among the top, reaching the specified percentage, one can obtain the title of Intermediate Breeder.

If luck is not on their side and they happen to encounter a group of formidable fellow Breeders… even if they truly possess the level of an Intermediate Breeder, they can only unfortunately wait for the next exam.

So, for most Junior Breeders aspiring for promotion, it tests both patience and luck. This is also why the majority of Intermediate Breeders are not too young.

“Cynthia became an Intermediate Breeder at the age of 14… but that’s already the limit,” Terrance muttered to himself. As a Trainer, achieving the level of an Intermediate Breeder was already the peak.

Intermediate Breeders possess various qualities that fully equip them to nurture various Pokémon and implement various emergency measures.

As for advancing further, it’s no longer for those who do not specialize in further developing the “Breeder profession.”

Senior Breeders are no longer just a “Breeder.” This title is more like an affirmation of a Breeder’s expertise in a specific field…

Senior Breeders no longer juggle between various Breeder skills.

Specialization.

Many Breeders at higher levels even acquire titles like Professor, Master, and so on.

If Terrance were to obtain the title of Intermediate Breeder and wanted to advance further…

It wouldn’t be achievable through mere studying. Senior Breeders inevitably possess knowledge they have created or discovered, their own secret techniques.

Even reaching the top-level Breeder… research results must have very high value.

Lilycove City.

House of Breeding Library.

“Borrowing for a week.” Terrance handed over his Junior Breeder license at the counter on the first floor.

Returning to the House of Breeding Library, Terrance’s purpose was not as clear as the first time.

The first time, he was looking for books like “Analyzing Sound Type Moves” to help Swablu grow.

This time, it was to aimlessly pass the remaining days. The exam’s start is only a few days away.

With a Pokemon Center for residence and the House of Breeding Library for both killing time and revising, it provides examinees with a comfortable environment for preparation.

“Please keep quiet…”

The registrant seriously warned. Terrance shrugged helplessly, indicating understanding. Although the library was quite spacious, even ordinary residents were restricted in numbers during the peak period of this exam. The purpose was to provide examinees with a comfortable environment for preparation.

Heading directly to the third floor, Terrance’s steps were light. As he passed by, he casually glanced at the sitting and earnestly reading people, spanning various ages.

After some consideration, Terrance decided to focus on his weaker areas—nursing, injury treatment, improving appearance, and so on.

As for targeted teaching of moves and a series of skills like Pokémon food preparation, those were currently Terrance’s advantages.

“If it’s Little June, she should have a good chance of passing the exam, right?”

Picking up a book on medical treatment, Terrance thought of June Joy, who hadn’t yet participated in the Intermediate Breeder exam. Unlike Terrance, June wasn’t in a hurry and didn’t care about the title. She was engrossed in ecological research in the Kalos region, reportedly joining a research team, traveling around, leading a fulfilling life, and helping countless Pokémon in the process.

“No time…” When Terrance received this response, it was hard to imagine that this was the attitude of a Junior Breeder toward higher titles.

“I wonder how he is doing…” Thinking of Little June, Terrance couldn’t help but think of Wallace. Not only did Wallace dominate the Grand Festival in the Hoenn region, but he also successively won the highest honors in several Pokémon Contests. After two years, Wallace has become known as the Contest Master.

Compared to Terrance, who only had one Ribbon, the gap between them in the Coordinator field had grown increasingly wider.
