PP SYS Ch 34: Biology With Mr. Jacq!
I sighed, but then I ran into the school as the rain started to pick up. I got inside and walked to the front desk, where there was a dark-skinned woman dressed in a green shirt with an open blue one over the top. She had gray hair and glasses on top of her head, with a Gengar standing beside her with a big smile. I had always found them a bit unsettling from the Pokedex, but seeing one in person was a different experience, and this one was staring at me.
"Welcome to Uva Academy! You must be Landon! I suppose that you are curious about your first class? The thing is that you don't have to go every day, but you still should keep up with your classes. Catching Pokémon is only the first step in your life! After that, you might decide to continue to be a trainer, but there are other things that you can do with your Pokémon besides just fighting!" The woman said, and I nodded.
"That does sound interesting, and I like the idea of exploring old ruins and learning about our history," I said, and the woman smiled at me.
"I am sure you will do well, but I think Mr. Jacq's class is a good place for you to start. His Biology class is on the first floor to the left and heads to the northmost wing; the theme of the area is light green, not yellow. You should be able to find it, but I think you can learn a bit more about the Pokémon you are trying to catch," The woman explained, and I thanked her before leaving.
[While I can teach you about the basics of catching Pokémon, I think it would be better for you to learn from someone who has actually done it before. Someone like Nemona or Tallia, but for now, this Mr. Jacq showing you is a good start. He is a biology teacher, but he is also the one that designed the latest Pokedex app used by the Rotom phone. I suggest that you go get your phone and change into the school uniform.]
I smiled at that thought and nodded my head in agreement as I walked in the direction of my room quickly on the second floor. I got inside and was about to change, but then I smelled myself, and I looked in the bathroom. There was a very small shower stall, but it was better than nothing, so I quickly rinsed off before checking the drawers to find the same uniform of dark blue shorts, a tie, and a light blue shirt with a folded collar that I had seen others in.
Mr. Jacq then started going over different strategies for capturing specific types of Pokemon in specific locations. He also showed me how to use different tools in order to make finding them easier. After his lecture ended, he gave me a few assignments before letting me go back upstairs.
When I got back to my room, I set to the homework that I had been given and finished it in five minutes; most of the time came from trying to find a pencil sharpener. Cryo had remained silent, but I knew this was all thanks to the augmenting that he had done to me while I had slept.
Once I put my work away, I checked my phone, that now had my classes, and my next one was Art. This was with Mr. Hassel, but I wasn't really sure what to expect here. I had never really been that good with art, but maybe Cryo had given me a boost in this area.
Mr. Hassel's class was on the second floor, but this time on the right side of the building in the teal section. As I got closer, I could hear someone talking in a dramatic voice, and it turned out to be coming from the classroom that I was going to.
I knocked on the door when there was a pause, and I was called to come in. The moment I walked into the room, a blonde-haired older man ambushed me.
"Landon! Director Geeta informed me about your coming, and so did your new friend Tallia even before that! I can see big things in your future, Mr!" The man who must be Mr. Hassel said.
