"During the break, let's learn some small facts about Pokémon. We just mentioned that Kakuna is the evolved form of Weedle, and after Kakuna evolves, it becomes Beedrill."
"So, does everyone know what type of Pokémon Beedrill is?"
Everyone sat on the grass, listening to Professor Oak's question. Most children loved Pokémon, but currently, they were only at the stage of liking to interact with them. They didn't know much about Pokémon knowledge. Many things they only learned when Professor Oak mentioned them. Many children answered based on common sense.
"Bug-type!!" Some already knew, while others answered this way because they heard the description of Weedle being Bug-type.
"You're all right, Beedrill is indeed a Bug-type Pokémon. However, Pokémon don't just have one type, so Beedrill also has the Poison-type in addition to the Bug-type."
"So when you're in the wild, you must never provoke Beedrill easily. Its poison sting is very potent. If you become a trainer in the future and are attacked by Beedrill, you must immediately find a Pokémon Center for treatment!"
Most children who came to the summer camp dreamed of becoming trainers in the future, so Professor Oak also taught them some basic knowledge.
"Yes!!" The children responded earnestly.
"Then... let me ask a more difficult question. Does anyone know what Beedrill's Ability is?" This question stumped most of the children. Many adults weren't even clear on this kind of question, let alone children.
"Swarm!" "Swarm, Sniper!" Only two people spoke. Two voices rang out simultaneously. One was Gary. As Professor Oak's grandson, he naturally knew more than the average child. The second was Satoshi. As a transmigrator, he naturally knew more than Gary, at least more than the current Gary.
"Oh?? Satoshi actually knows about Hidden Abilities. It seems you're very good at learning Pokémon knowledge!" Hearing their answers, he was quite satisfied with his grandson. But he was even more surprised by Satoshi's answer. Children nowadays couldn't even recognize all the types, and Abilities were a spontaneous question he asked. It was like a teacher saying there would be a bonus question at the end of the test. Getting it right would add points, and getting it wrong or not answering wouldn't affect the score. He hadn't expected these children to understand Abilities.
But Gary and Satoshi both knew. Gary didn't say much. As Professor Oak's grandson, it was normal for him to know; it was expected. But Satoshi not only knew but also knew Hidden Abilities. Satoshi knew that what was called a Hidden Ability was referred to as a Dream Ability in the games of his previous life. Some Pokémon could only have one or two abilities. In the games, however, there was a Dream World in the fifth generation where Pokémon with Hidden Abilities could be obtained. But that was a game. In the anime, it wasn't as fantastical that Pokémon from dreams could be brought into reality, but vaguely, Pokémon could directly possess Hidden Abilities. Of course, no matter what the Ability, only one could exist. Dream Abilities were just relatively rare, but not necessarily better.
"Professor, what's a Hidden Ability?" Some children suddenly asked when they heard this.
"Hidden Abilities are relatively rare Abilities. Some Pokémon will have unusual Abilities. Professor Juniper from the Unova region is an expert in this field."
"But to this day, even Professor Juniper hasn't been able to fully analyze all Pokémon's Hidden Abilities." "Abilities are very useful in trainer battles, so if you become a trainer in the future, you must pay special attention to your Pokémon and determine the Abilities they possess," Professor Oak explained the issue of Abilities, looking at Satoshi with appreciation.
"So amazing!!" All the children looked at Satoshi, because he had mentioned something that even a Professor-level figure couldn't fully grasp, making these children feel he was very impressive.
"Hmph!!" Gary, seeing his thunder stolen by Satoshi, looked unconvinced and arrogantly turned his head away. But inwardly, he muttered, This guy used to know nothing about this stuff, even always getting the most basic type matchups wrong. How is he so amazing now?
"Alright, everyone, remember these things well. Next, we're going to the utilization area!" Looking at the time, Professor Oak saw that they had rested enough and spoke to the children. "Yes!" The children quickly regained their energy, especially since they were very interested in these things. It was much more interesting than school, making them look forward to this summer camp even more.
Flap flap flap flap!!!!
"Huh??" Just as they were about to leave, a sound suddenly rang out. Professor Oak instinctively stopped.
"What's that sound?" The surrounding staff also noticed it and subconsciously asked. It seemed to be the sound of something flapping. The children also stopped, looking at the staff with confusion. At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the woods.
Caw caw!!!
"This sound is... Oh no!!" As a Pokémon Professor, Professor Oak naturally identified the sound immediately.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!!
Just as Professor Oak was about to speak, countless black shadows shot out from the woods, flying into the air, arriving above the clearing, surrounding everyone, and then looking down at them.
"It's Spearow!!" "How can there be so many Spearow? When we checked last time, we didn't find these guys!" The staff were also a bit surprised by the alarming number of Spearow. Before holding the summer camp, the location had been checked. Although there were Pokémon living along the way, most were not very threatening. At that time, no flocks of Spearow were found.
"Stop talking so much! Protect the children first! Hurry and leave." Professor Oak was relatively calm. He immediately shouted at the staff. The children had never seen such a scene before. Most of them were "armchair enthusiasts." Although they loved cute Pokémon that were close to humans, they had never seen such fierce Pokémon. At this moment, many of them showed fearful expressions.
