Chapter 27: One Ball Superman
"I promise you, although I don't know if you have seen its potential, if one day this thing still cannot meet my expectations, I can give it to you."
"For me, training without results is useless no matter how hard I work."
Shinji left after saying this without caring about what Xiaoyun said next. He turned around and walked out of the town.
"Xiao Yun, why did you make such an agreement with that guy just now?"
After seeing that Shinji had left, Xiaoguang, who was holding Togaman, started to speak to Xiaoyun with a puffy look on her delicate face.
"That guy gives people the impression that he is difficult to get along with, and the way he speaks is not likable. His Pokémon must be as cold as him, and only know how to blindly follow orders."
"That little flame monkey is different."
"For a rational person like Shinji, the little Flame Monkey is destined to not be able to realize its maximum potential in his hands. I believe he will understand this." Xiaoyun looked at Shinji's departing back, and then slowly said to Xiaoguang beside him.
"Well, we should set off to the next town. We have already wasted quite a bit of time these past few days."
"Yeah, I've experienced a lot in the past two days." Xiaoguang sighed.
After all, as a rookie trainer, he experienced harassment from Team Rocket twice before even leaving the Novice Village!
Is this what traveling is like? No wonder they say traveling makes a person mature.
(Xiaozhi: I will mature after meeting Team Rocket, are you sure?)
"Doctor, let's say goodbye."
"Xiaozhi and Xiaogang, we'll be leaving first."
"There is a long way to go, and we will have the chance to meet again."
Although Xiaoyun knew that the distance was similar to Xiaozhi's, Xiaoyun didn't plan to go with them. Wouldn't it be nice to be alone with Xiaoguang?
So after saying goodbye to Professor Yamanashi, Xiao Gang and Xiao Zhi, the Cloud and Light duo rested for a night at the Pokémon Center with Xiao Guang and started their journey again. (This time it's real)
It was a beautiful day with a clear sky and bright sunshine. With the goal of participating in the gorgeous competition in Qing City, Xiaoyun and Xiaoguang left Zhenshang Town early in the morning and started heading towards their destination.
Several days have passed since they said goodbye to Xiaozhi and the others. After a day of traveling, the two started today's camping.
"Xiaoyun, is my current posture correct?"
"Well, that's pretty good. It would be even better if you used a little more strength in your arms."
"But this is so tiring."
"It's normal, just practice more and it will be fine."
Xiaoyun, who was sitting on the grass, was giving instructions to Xiaoguang who was practicing throwing Poké Balls.
"Okay, let's take a break."
"Hey, can we finally take a break?"
When Xiaoguang heard that he could take a rest, he suddenly regained his energy. He immediately trotted to Xiaoyun and sat with her back to back.
"Xiao Guang, you don't look weak at all."
After Xiaoyun felt Xiaoguang leaning on her back, she quietly lowered her waist a little so that she could lie more comfortably, and then said helplessly.
"But I was really tired just now. I walked so much during the day." Xiaoguang felt that Xiaoyun's back became more comfortable when lying down, so he squinted his eyes and said comfortably without thinking too much.
"I never thought that you would miss the target with your Poké Ball even though you defeated Curly-Eared before. Instead, you threw it right at my face. I was almost disfigured by your ball."
Xiao Yun thought about what happened before and touched his nose subconsciously. He never thought that there are still people who can't make a shot these days.
That’s right, just yesterday afternoon, Xiaoguang met Curly-Eared once again, and this time he successfully defeated him.
As a result, when he captured it, he actually threw the Poké Ball on the face of Xiaoyun who was watching the show nearby. Then when he took out the Poké Ball again, the figure of Curly-Eared had disappeared.
The plan to conquer the enemy failed again, and then the scene just now happened.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't expect the ball to hit your face."
"Does it still hurt? Let me massage you again." Xiaoguang knew he was in the wrong, so he got up from Xiaoyun's back and sat in front of Xiaoyun, ready to give Xiaoyun another local spa with his hands.
"No, but you still need to practice pitching. How about this, I'll teach you a formula."
Xiaoyun took away Xiaoguang's hand that was massaging him and looked mysterious.
"Mantra? What kind of mantra is that? Is it for taming the elves?"
Xiaoguang looked at Xiaoyun strangely. Why did he suddenly stand up without even letting her touch his nose?
"To put it simply, the formula is that you need to be accurate in your posture and steady in your movements, so that you can hit the target with one shot... and you need to be accurate in your shots, so that you can hit the target with one shot." Xiaoyun said slowly after seeing Xiaoguang become interested.
"Um..., then is there any difference between this and me throwing the ball?" Xiaoguang felt a little strange after hearing the mantra. Isn't this mantra the same as throwing the ball on the spot?
"Of course not... There is still a little bit. Let me show you." Xiao Yun almost let the cat out of the bag. He thought to himself, there is no difference at all. He just made it up mainly to ease the atmosphere.
What kind of mantra is needed to throw a Poké Ball? Do you think you are a one-ball superman who can throw anything you want?
But in order to cover up the fact that he was not lying, Xiaoyun took out a Poké Ball from his waist.
Then he just casually struck a pose, looking pretty realistic, and threw it at a stone in the distance. The result was.
It hit the head of a curly-eared cat that just jumped out of the bushes.
Ding, ding, bang!
Looking at the curly ears that jumped out of the Poké Ball, Xiao Yun was a little confused at the moment, thinking in his heart: Oh my god, there really is a formula, then if I recite it silently in my heart, can the mythical beast come to me? !
"Xiaoyun, you are so awesome. You can really throw Pokémon!" Xiaoguang looked at Xiaoyun with a hint of admiration in his eyes. He felt that Xiaoyun was really a treasure boy who could do everything.
"Uh.....it's okay, just so-so. Basic skills are not bad."
Although Xiaoyun was also confused in her heart, she remained calm on the surface when she heard Xiaoguang's praise.
"But Xiaoyun, that Curly-eared One seems a little angry." Xiaoguang pointed at the Curly-eared One that jumped out of the Poké Ball.
"Huh? What."
Following Xiaoguang's words, I saw Curly-Eared Fox looking at the two of them angrily. It had just finished its meal and was jumping for a walk. As soon as it came out of the bush, it was hit on the head by a Poké Ball by a Pokémon.
If you want to conquer me in a battle, just tell me. Why are you attacking me by surprise? You want to conquer me without doing anything. That won't work.
"Mimi." Juanjuan'er became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. An ice-blue light condensed from his hand, and a forked ice-blue light shot directly at the two of them.
