I fiddled with the new piece of tech on my wrist for a while after buying it before my pokemon in their balls let me know through our bond that they wanted out. At that point I headed for the city exit since unless I wanted to rent out a whole training area again I'd definitely get a huge fine for releasing them in the city. Rune and Gaia were both massive as royal pokemon and besides Hades the rest were much too large to scoot under the laws regulation.-

The law was quite clear that anything bigger than a person wasn't allowed to be released within a city with the exceptions on if it was being used to travel or it was an emergency. The Jenny watching the gate to the city eyed me warily as I passed through to route 218. The outside of the city was a forested area that gave way to a stretch of ocean that upon crossing took one to Jubilife city after going through a small bit of forest. I obviously didn't go that far but rather just went to the distance that would allow me to release my pokemon without incurring a fine.-

"Sorry about that guys, almost forgot that you've all been stuck in your balls for the last two weeks with only short breaks to eat. Feel free to stretch your legs but no sparring since we are still pretty close to the city." I said after letting my pokemon out. Vulcan wasted no time at all dashing off to who knows where while Gaia just sat down lazily on the ground that sank in a little under her extremely great weight. Yani wandered off to go foraging for plants and Rune immediately flew off to the sea to try and hunt some water pokemon.

Naturally the pot I used for this cook was more accurately named a cauldron due to the sheer size of it that almost didn't even fit inside the mouth of my bag. And I wasn't even using just one of these things either but four since I was cooking for all of my pokemon after all. The only one who wouldn't be partaking in this food would be Tank who I prepared and fruit and veggie salad since his species was herbivorous.-

Preparing the stew was easy as I first added the meat cut up into chunks alongside cleaned and diced vegetables. I let that cook a bit to render out the oil while adding some color to the veggies. I then added clean water to the pots and scooped out the excess floating oil from the surface of the water while adding salt peeper and some frozen stock cubes I had made previously. I let the mixture simmer for a while until it started bubbling at which point i lowered the heat and added the sachet of herbs to each pot for the flavor.-

I then added some starch and let the whole thing cook down into a thick hearty stew that I kept nice and warm to let the flavors mingle. While that happened I started going through the exercises for my hand to hand skill since while I was happy with my spear I had to admit it wasn't exactly great for capturing people without much damage. Not to say it couldn't be done but it was much harder than say dislocating a dudes arms or choking them till they passed out. Hand to hand covered these things so if I was going to try and sell the image that I mellowed out a little I should at least get a little good at it.-

Plus it helped that I knew there would be cases when i had to leave my spear at the door so being nearly defenseless in those times could be avoided with this skill. To be fair I was never truly defenseless so long as I had my aura as if push came to shove I could totally enhance my body temporarily and go out swinging. If I had more aura I could even use pokemon moves but that was such a massively energy expensive thing that throwing hands was just that much more efficient.
