For now, Axel decided to focus on 4 moves. They were:
1. Shadow sneak: This move was selected for 2 reasons. 1, it was Axel and Marcus's favorite move. And 2, it was pretty useful for assassins.
2. Agility: Just so that, Shedinja could increase its speed to a great height.
3. Gravity: For crowd control. If Shedinja could create its own domain like Adam's Scizor with gravity, agility and shadow sneak, it would be unstoppable.
Shedinja was a bug/ghost type Pokemon. So, Axel would have to harness both of those energies when it ranks up to Elemental Pokemon. He then decided to train Marcus in 'Bug buzz'.
At first, he wanted Shedinja to train in 'X-scissor' as it was a very popular move but he decided against it. 'X-scissor' is a physical type move and Marcus would have to be in close proximity to use it which would be bad.
Axel wanted Shedinja to avoid contact as much as possible. But 'Bug buzz' was a special type move. It is more powerful than 'x-scissor' and had a chance to decrease the opponent's special defense
Now for Nidoran and Charmander.
Axel had decided to train them with the help of 'Ancient ways' book that he received from MEW. He also wanted to train Shedinja on it but the book only had one condition. And that was, the Pokemon should not have evolved. There were some training tips recorded in the book. But basically, before the first evolution, the Pokemon would have to train their body and bones. They would train their blood vessels when they reached rare ranked.
Axel had already trained their body. As for the bones, he would have to buy some ingredients, prepare them like a paste, and let the Pokemon bathe on them by adding some water. It was like a classic cultivation novel. After that, the Pokemon would have to train hard to absorb the nutrients.
But the ingredients were expensive. The ingredients were different for both Nidoran and Charmander as they had different typing. It cost Axel a total of 8000 points to acquire all those ingredients for 3 months of training. He expected Nidoran and Charmander to evolve at that point in time.
As for the moves of Nidoran,
Nidoran or its evolved form Nidoking, was one of the few Pokemons that could learn a variety of moves. It could learn 17 out of 18 types of moves. Besides the fairy type, it could learn anything.
However, time would not let Axel train all those moves to Nidoran. One of the things lacking in Nidoking would be its stats. It had a high stat of 505 but its sp. The defense was low. But that was on the game. Not in real life.
Axel could train Nidoran on all of its stats.
There were 4 weaknesses of Nidoking; Ground, water, psychic and ice. So Axel thought to train it in 'thunder punch' for water type. Shedinja could handle ground and psychic type and in the future, Charizard could handle ice type.
However, there was a problem. Nidoran could only train in 'Thunder punch' after it evolves to Nidorino. So, for now, Axel would focus on 4 of its moves,
1. Horn attack: So it could learn Horn drill in the future.
2. Sludge bomb: as it is a powerful move.
3. Focus energy: since Nidoking in the future would be a close combat fighter.
4. And earthquake: Axel wanted Nidoking to learn 'Fissure' in the future. Earthquake would help it a lot.
Now for Charmander's moves,
Over the period, Axel had observed Charmander. How he acts, how he fights, and how he thinks. He had come to realize that it was a pure attacker. It doesn't think like Shedinja when it fights. It doesn't have a careful nature like Nidoran. It just wants to smash things.
Charmander was in its baby period now. So it's a gullible Pokemon who likes to prank. But Axel knows that's going to change soon. After it evolves, it would be dominant and power-hungry.
And he would love that nature of Charmander. Charmander was his favorite Pokemon. It still was and would be in the future. The dominant personality that Charizard had of Ash in anime is still in his mind. He loved how it acted as the king of the world and that was showing in its fighting style right now.
So for now, Axel would concentrate on 4 of its moves:
1. Dragon dance: As it would increase its attack and speed
2. Dragon rush: Cause why not?
3. Ember: Because Axel wanted it to learn Flamethrower in the future. There are other powerful fire type moves like blast burn, overheat or flare blitz but those didn't sit well with Axel. Charizard without spewing flames from its mouth, would not be Charizard at all
4. And finally Dragon claw.
3 dragon type moves and 1 fire type move. He knew this would be a stupid idea. He knew he could have taught it 'Shadow claw' or 'Dynamic punch' or even 'Solar beam' for a good type advantage. But he didn't want that. He just wanted Charizard to be the one that he had always imagined.
This could backfire on him at the latter stage, but he would deal with it at that time. Besides, it was only 3 months of training. Even it became useless, 3 months would not affect Charmander who had black potential.
After thinking all this he formally decided to start the new training plan. But first, he wanted to look into Aura training book.
