# Chapter 159: Professor Oak's Summer Camp
Nie Zi quickly received the transfer from Bai Feng, and he was very surprised.
Although he didn't compose music for the Primarina Band for money, Bai Feng's actions earned him a great deal of goodwill.
He didn't say much, just sent Bai Feng a message, "The second tune has already started production, please look forward to it!"
Bai Feng told this news to Primarina and the others, and they were indeed very happy, couldn't help but start counting the days in anticipation of the new tune's arrival.
This day, Bai Feng went Home After School and suddenly saw Ikki riding a Talonflame land excitedly in his Yard, holding a yellow duck Pokémon in his arms.
Seeing Bai Feng enter the Door, he immediately ran over, held up the Pokémon, and said to Bai Feng, "Brother Bai Feng, look at my Pokémon!"
Psyduck?
Bai Feng looked at this Pokémon with wise eyes in surprise, "Just hatched from the Egg?"
"Mhm mhm~" Ikki nodded repeatedly with joy.
"Quack?" Psyduck held its Head with both hands, tilting its Head with a confused look.
Don't look at Psyduck's silly appearance, it's not actually stupid.
Although Psyduck is a pure Water-type Pokémon, it is extremely skilled at using Psychic. There aren't many Pokémon skilled at using Psychic that are fools.
The reason it looks silly is because the stronger Psyduck's Psychic Power is, the greater the burden on its brain, thus suppressing its thoughts. This situation will continue until it evolves into Golduck before it gets better.
Bai Feng patted Ikki's shoulder, "It's a good Pokémon. Since it has hatched, raise it well."
"Mhm~" Ikki held Psyduck in his arms, touching its Head with a look of affection.
At this time, Bai Feng asked again, "Have you decided which path you want to take in the future?"
Now Ikki faces two choices: one is to continue studying at Middle School as a Trainer and then follow the Academy Route; the other is to give up Schooling, travel directly with his Pokémon, and follow the Combat-oriented Route.
These two paths each have their pros and cons, it depends on the Trainer's own choice. No matter which path Ikki chooses, Bai Feng will support him.
Ikki thought for a moment after hearing this before answering, "I want to go traveling!"
In fact, both Dean Meili and Brother Dong Yu hoped that Ikki would take the Academy Route because this path is relatively safe.
Ikki has been introverted since he was a child and is not decisive or bold enough in doing things. Coupled with his young age, Dean and Brother Dong Yu are worried that he will be bullied outside if he goes out like this.
But Ikki himself wants to see the outside World. He hasn't left Couriway Town since he grew up, and he really wants to see what the outside World is like with his own eyes.
He told Bai Feng what was in his Mind, his eyes showing a hint of unease.
If Brother Bai Feng also disagreed with him going traveling, then he would probably really choose to obediently go to School.
Bai Feng, however, smiled and rubbed his Head, "If you want to go, go. As long as you can ensure your Safety, this is a good thing. The outside World is vast, and only by seeing it with your own eyes can you know how magnificent this World is!"
Ikki nodded happily upon hearing this.
"However, you've just started traveling. If you really go outside, you can't just run around randomly. You must follow the League Official Route planned by the League!"
The League Official Routes are places that have been walked and explored by countless Trainers and are basically not dangerous.
Bai Feng doesn't have many opportunities to go out, so he can only give Ikki some advice based on theory, but Ikki still listened very seriously.
"League registered Rookie Trainers are generally only allowed to carry six Pokémon. At that time, if the number of Pokémon you catch exceeds six, just transfer them directly to me. I guarantee I'll raise them to be strong and healthy!"
Bai Feng suddenly remembered that he didn't have a Pokémon Transfer Device here yet. It would be better to install one later, which would be more convenient. Otherwise, running to the Pokémon Center every time would be too troublesome.
"By the way, Ikki, you haven't registered for your League Trainer Identity yet, have you?"
If he didn't register, he wouldn't be able to participate in the various matches organized by the League, like Bai Feng couldn't participate.
"Not yet." Ikki shook his Head.
"Then I'll take you to the Pokémon Center to register later."
At Noon, Bai Feng kept Ikki for Lunch and talked to him about becoming a Trainer.
Although Bai Feng himself is not a formal Trainer, Kalos is, and Hua Cai is too. When Bai Feng chatted with them, they would more or less talk about topics related to Trainers.
Bai Feng told Ikki everything he could remember.
After finishing Lunch, before going to School, Bai Feng first rode Talonflame and took Ikki to the Pokémon Center to help him complete his Trainer Identity registration.
This was Ikki's first time at the Pokémon Center. He held Psyduck, followed behind Bai Feng, and looked at the Trainers and Pokémon coming and going, feeling both nervous and Excited.
Nurse Joy was a little surprised to see Bai Feng, "Why are you here at this Time?"
Bai Feng pushed Ikki behind him to the Counter and smiled, "To register this child's Trainer Identity."
Nurse Joy knew that Bai Feng came from the Orphanage, so she wasn't surprised that he brought an unfamiliar child, "Rookie Trainer Identity registration?"
Bai Feng nodded, "That's right."
"Then please pay the Fee first. The registration Fee is one thousand League Coin!" Nurse Joy said.
Bai Feng had already learned about this before coming, so he paid the Money readily.
After receiving the payment, Nurse Joy took out a Machine and placed it in front of Ikki, "Please place your Thumb here." She pointed to a Slot on the Machine and said to Ikki.
Ikki obediently placed his Thumb on it, and all of Ikki's Identity Information instantly popped up on the Computer in front of Nurse Joy.
"Ikki, right?" Nurse Joy began to verify Ikki's Identity Information.
"Yes." Ikki nodded.
...
After the Identity Information verification was completed, Nurse Joy continued to ask, "Confirming the registration of Ikki as a Rookie Trainer?"
"Yes." Ikki answered Sure.
After some operations, Nurse Joy said to Bai Feng and Ikki with a big Smile:
"Okay, the registration is successful. This Identity will be locked after passing the Review. In the future, no one except the person themselves or those with relevant permissions may view it privately."
"Next is the registration of the Pokémon under the Trainer's name. Do you have any Pokémon?"
Nurse Joy walked to another Computer and quickly clicked a few times on the Computer. Six Slots matching the size of a Pokeball then appeared on the Counter in front of Bai Feng and the others.
Of course, Ikki had a Pokémon, he was holding it in his arms. Nurse Joy also saw it, she just asked so many times before and got used to it, which is why she blurted it out.
Under Nurse Joy's guidance, Ikki returned Psyduck to its Pokeball and then placed the Pokeball into one of the Slots.
The reason League Trainers need to register their Pokémon's Information is both to prevent Trainers from cheating during matches and to facilitate League management.
"Psyduck, registration complete!"
"Nurse Joy, can I get a Pokédex here?" Bai Feng asked at this time.
"Of course!" Nurse Joy answered with a Smile. Couriway Town is a big city after all, and the Pokémon Center can certainly help Rookie Trainers get a Pokédex.
"Then get one for Ikki!" Bai Feng said.
If a Rookie Trainer has a Pokédex, traveling will be much more convenient.
The Pokédex not only records Information on most of the currently known Pokémon, which can help Rookie Trainers quickly understand the basic Situation of an unfamiliar Pokémon, but also has functions such as Identity Certificate, Communication, and helping Trainers check the status of their own Pokémon (including the Pokémon's health, Body data, and Skills learned).
When a Trainer catches a new Pokémon, the Pokédex will also automatically record it in the File, without the Trainer needing to make a special trip to the Pokémon Center.
In short, it is a very convenient Item.
"Okay!" Nurse Joy said with a Smile, "The Price of one Pokédex is one hundred thousand. Are you Sure you want to get one?"
Good heavens, it's really expensive. Children from ordinary families probably can't afford it at all.
Hearing Nurse Joy's words, Ikki was startled and quickly pulled Bai Feng's sleeve, wanting to say that he didn't need a Pokédex.
"Brother Bai Feng..."
Bai Feng patted Ikki's hand, signaling him not to worry, and at the same Time looked at Nurse Joy and said, "Get it."
Although it is indeed expensive, you can't let the child suffer. The Money that should be spent cannot be saved. If you don't have it, fine, but if you have the ability, why not get it? Having this Stuff will indeed make things much more convenient.
Nurse Joy nodded and quickly typed a few times on the Computer, "Okay, the Pokédex will be issued after the Rookie Trainer Identity Review is approved. We will contact you by Phone at that Time.
You can choose to come to the Pokémon Center to pick it up yourselves, or you can choose to have us deliver it to your Home."
Bai Feng said, "Just deliver it to Home." After speaking, he left the address of the Bluebird Orphanage.
After completing the registration, Bai Feng told Ikki that he could look around the Pokémon Center and interact with other Trainers, and left Talonflame with him, telling him to ride Talonflame Home himself after he was done looking around.
As for Bai Feng himself, he went to School alone.
Upon arriving at School, Bai Feng thought for a moment, took out his Phone, logged onto the League official website, and scheduled the installation date for the Pokémon Transfer Device in advance.
Just as Bai Feng was putting away his Phone, Student Walian, who was sitting in front, suddenly turned her Head and said to Bai Feng, "Did you know? Professor Oak's regularly held Summer Camp is about to start. I estimate the Teacher will announce it during class today."
"Professor Oak's Summer Camp?" Bai Feng subconsciously raised his Head, "When is it being held?"
"I don't know." Wa Lian shook her Head, "The Teacher will definitely say it then." Then she looked at Bai Feng with a curious expression, "Are you very interested? This is the first Time I've seen you so interested in something, besides Berry cultivation."
Bai Feng said sheepishly, "Because Professor Oak is very famous, and very knowledgeable. I've always wanted to meet him."
Actually, it was because Professor Oak is very famous in the original work, and Bai Feng wanted to see him, and also see if he could meet Xiao Zhi. He wondered how old Xiao Zhi was now, maybe he wasn't even born yet?
Probably not. Judging by the ages of Kalos, Yu Long Du, and the others, he shouldn't be.
"That's true!" Wa Lian nodded. Professor Oak is indeed famous, and there are indeed many people who like him.
At this Time, Da Fu suddenly also poked his Head over, "Are you guys discussing Professor Oak's Summer Camp? Let's discuss it together! I'm planning to participate anyway, you guys sign up with me too!"
Wa Lian rolled her eyes and turned her Head away disdainfully, "Hmph! Who wants to participate with you!"
Da Fu was quite angered, "You brat, I don't want to be with you either! I want to be with Bai Feng, right, Bai Feng?" As he spoke, he put his arm around Bai Feng's neck.
Bai Feng quickly pulled Da Fu's arm down, "Sorry, I don't want to be with you either."
Da Fu: (=ＴェＴ=)
Just as Da Fu wanted to protest, the class bell rang, and Da Fu reluctantly returned to his Seat.
As Wa Lian said, after the Teacher finished class, he started talking about the relevant Matters of Professor Oak's Summer Camp.
This is a voluntary Activity. If you want to participate, you have to register with the Teacher, and it is only open to students from the Pokémon Department. Students from the General Studies Department don't have the Opportunity to register even if they want to go.
Professor Oak's Summer Camp is divided into the Preschool Group and the Junior Group. The Preschool Group consists of children under ten years old, while the Junior Group consists of Young Men between ten and sixteen years old.
In addition, participating in the Summer Camp requires paying Money. It's 30,000 per person for the Junior Group, and 50,000 per person for the Preschool Group. Taking care of older children is always easier than taking care of younger children, so it's reasonable for younger children to be charged more.
After class, Bai Feng went to the Teacher to register and pay the Fee immediately.
Before leaving, Bai Feng looked at Da Fu and Wa Lian, "Aren't you two going to register?"
Both turned their Heads away in unison and said, "No!"
"Classmate Da Fu, didn't you say you were going?" Bai Feng asked Da Fu again.
"My young Mind was hurt by you, I don't want to go anymore!" Da Fu covered his chest and said with an exaggerated expression.
"Okay, in that case, I'll go by myself then!" Bai Feng spread his hands and said.
At this Time, Bai Feng saw Student Shen Mu looking at him, his eyes clearly saying, let's go together.
So Bai Feng nodded and waved to him, and the two went to the Teacher's Office together.
When registering, the Teacher told Bai Feng and Shen Mu that the Summer Camp would be held a week later, and the School would specially arrange an Aircraft two days later to send the registered students to the Kanto Region, so they should prepare in advance.
That's right, the location of this Summer Camp is Pallet Town in the Kanto Region, which made Bai Feng even more Excited!
Professor Oak's Summer Camp is not the first Time it has been held, and the location is Different each Time. It is quite rare for it to be held in Pallet Town this Time.
When Bai Feng returned from the Teacher's Office, he found that the Seats of Student Walian and Classmate Da Fu were empty, so he shook his Head helplessly.
They really are rivals!
