And just from the aura, it is enough to dominate this small sea area.
but......
Lu Yuan won't indulge it.
The corners of his mouth turned up, and he said confidently, "Black Mist."
"Kou Jie."
After receiving the order, Gastly floated in front of Chiroko. When their eyes met, Gastly continuously spewed out bursts of thick black mist from his mouth.
Black Mist is an ice-attribute move that can restore the abilities of all Pokémon on the battlefield to their original state.
There is a saying in the Zhuzi fighting world, "You can not have a roaring tyrant, but you must have a way to counter the roaring tyrant."
As the black fog continued to spread, Chihouba's previously domineering aura suddenly vanished, and its various abilities that had been greatly enhanced with great difficulty were reduced to their original state in an instant.
At this time, Duban climbed onto Chihouba's body again.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Lu Yuan threw the ball decisively.
Without any hesitation, the Poké Ball just shook three times symbolically, and Chirobot was successfully captured.
"Too, too... shocking. Contestant Lu Yuan actually conquered Chihouba in this way."
The host looked at the sea area with some headache. Because of the bombs, there was no fish to be seen on the sea.
Although it will be recovered after a while, the game has to end early.
......
At the award ceremony, Lu Yuan stood in the first place.
On his left is a sturdy middle-aged man, Jacana, the guy who caught Milotic and also the father of Suicune in the Alola region.
On his right is Qiao Yixue, who is wearing a white dress and a pink bun.
These three people are the champion, runner-up and third place of this conference respectively.
The person in charge of presenting the awards at this conference is an "old acquaintance", Sakura from the Hualan Gym.
A sexy blonde lady.
As the Wutong Gym is as famous as the Hualan Gym, Sakura also recognized Lu Yuan.
"I've been wanting to find an opportunity to talk to you, Master Lu Yuan."
What to talk about? How to transform the gym into a water ballet?
You don't have to.
Things are different now. Now Wutong Gym is out of your reach.
Please don't confuse me with you, thank you.
Sakura handed over a tray and said, "Here are your championship prizes, the Dream Fishing Rod Set and the Mysterious Drops."
As for the mysterious water drops, Lao Deng still has a lot of stock in his warehouse, but I heard that the dream fishing rod set is out of print and cannot be bought even if you have money.
The old man inquired about it for a long time, and now I have it, hehe...
"And this." Yinghua clenched her fist towards Lu Yuan and said with a smile, "This is a small gift from me, please accept it."
Oh, just come, and bring gifts.
Lu Yuan took it curiously, and it felt like a piece of metal.
[Ding! Trigger mission]
[Mission objective: Participate in the Quartz Conference, collect badges (1/8)]
???
This system actually issues tasks?
I thought it was only for raffles?
"You are..." Lu Yuan said with a complicated expression as he looked at the water drop badge in his hand.
"I've already told you, a little gift for meeting you." Sakura said with a smile.
Come to think of it, Misty's three sisters seemed to particularly like giving badges to others. Once, a passerby helped clean the gym, and Sakura directly gave the badge to that person.
If this were placed in Sinnoh, it would definitely be on par with Denji.
No, Denji's strength is at least there, and if it's Sakura, the gym should be demolished by Jun Shaling...
"Wow, Brother Lu Yuan, it's the Water Drop Badge. Are you going to challenge the Quartz Conference too?" Xiaosheng saw the Water Drop Badge in Lu Yuan's hand and ran over excitedly.
No, I'm not you. You want me to challenge those six evil hall masters in two months? Are you dreaming?
Chapter 50 Where the dream begins
After two days of travel, the Sant'Anto finally arrived at its destination.
Dead Leaf City.
It is an international port city with tall buildings everywhere.
"Brother Lu Yuan, I'm going to challenge the Dead Leaf City later. Do you want to come with me?"
As soon as we got off the boat, Xiaosheng extended an invitation enthusiastically.
Withered Leaf Gym? Ma Zhishi!
Then you're on your own.
"I've already told you that I'm not going to attend the Quartz Conference." Lu Yuan said helplessly. He had explained it many times while on the boat.
Having a badge does not mean that I have to participate in the Quartz Conference. Similarly, just because the system has issued a task does not mean that I have to complete it.
But Xiaosheng seemed to be selectively deaf and was completely talking to a deaf person.
"Okay, I see. I'm going to the Pokémon Center now. We'll see you at the Quartz Conference."
Seeing Xiaosheng leave, Lu Yuan was very upset.
Ma Zhishi, you'd better not show mercy today and give this kid a good beating on his ears!
"Okay, where are you going next?" Xiao Lan took out a travel guide and pointed to a place and said, "Why don't we go to Honglian Town and soak in the hot springs there."
"Or Yuhong City is also good. The perfume and game city there are quite famous."
"Hey, it's said that a meteor fell on Mt. Tsukimi again... A mysterious elf appeared in the Cerulean Cave... It's so hard to choose."
"Where are we going?" Lu Yuan laughed, "Of course we're going to Zhenxin Town."
If you come to Guan and don't go to Pallet Town, then it would be a waste of time, right?
"Clam?"
......
The car drove all the way through the Changpan Forest.
An ordinary town with lush vegetation, quiet and peaceful atmosphere gradually came into view.
Lu Yuan was in a good mood as he looked at the compacted dirt road and the shimmering lake with goldfish and mosquito coil tadpoles popping out from time to time, and he felt great.
The true newness is the pure white color which symbolizes the journey.
This is where the dream of becoming a trainer begins.
Lu Yuan still remembers the day when he was in elementary school and took Bulbasaur from Professor Oak and embarked on a journey. Every time he thinks back on it, he feels warm and nostalgic.
But people's senses are not the same. Unlike Lu Yuan who was very excited, Xiao Lan was unusually calm throughout the journey.
There was none of the excitement I had when I first got off the boat.
I thought I was going on a trip, but it turned out to be a trip back to the village.
The huge gap made her no longer interested in looking at the scenery outside the window. In fact, there was nothing good to see.
Seeing Xiao Lan's dejected look, Qiao Yixue quickly tried to comfort her, "Don't be so sad. After Lu Yuan has finished touring the Zhenxin Town, he might have some spare time.
Then we can go to Honglian Town to soak in the hot springs, or go to the game city in Yuhong City, how about that? "
"Unless there are special circumstances, the gym can only take a maximum of three days off at a time. I have already booked a return ticket for the afternoon." Lu Yuan said mercilessly.
Qiao Yixue smiled awkwardly and tried to change the subject to ease the atmosphere: "Haha, we should always think on the bright side of things! Look at that Duduli standing on the roof over there... How handsome!"
As she spoke, she pointed to a strange big bird with three heads on the roof in the distance.
"I hate bird Pokémon, and... this damn bird chirps every morning. It's so annoying!"
Xiao Lan said with disgust.
As he got out of the car, Lu Yuan was refreshed by the fresh air that hit him in the face.
“The horizons have become much broader.”
"Really? They all feel the same." Xiao Lan said in a very unpleasant tone.
Walking on the roadside.
Several children around five or six years old were commanding the Pokémon to fight.
There are Nidoking, Rhydon, Arcanine, and Kentaro, each one more ferocious than the other.
It looks like they were all secretly taken from their parents.
The real battle starts from childhood.
"Nidoking, the power of the earth!"
"Rumble Rock, big explosion!"
"Wind Speed Dog, big characters Explosion Flame!"
"Kentaro, make a scene!"
The children imitated their parents and commanded their own Pokémon.
Wow, he’s unleashing powerful moves one after another as if they’re free.
Is this the child from Pallet Town?
Is this the real super rookie?
Sure enough.
After a while, the area was razed to the ground by the shock waves of the four elves' skills.
Parents also took their children home by the ears.
"Are they... fighting?" Qiao Yixue said in disbelief.
Letting such a young child... fight... is so dangerous!
And how did they just survive the explosion!
Physics doesn't exist?
Xiao Lan was much calmer. "It's the nature of children to love playing. There's nothing to be surprised about."
Qiao Yixue: ...
I feel like we're not on the same page.
As the three of them were talking, they arrived at the door of the Oak Research Institute.
The Oak Research Institute is easy to spot in the sparsely populated town of Pallet.
Located on a small hill, it has an iconic windmill building.
Following the winding path, Lu Yun climbed up the stairs.
"Kou Jie."
Gastly floated next to Lu Yuan.
What are we doing?
"Go visit a doctor." Lu Yuan said slowly.
