It floated up from the bottom of the water in disappointment. Was this all it could do after trying its best?
"Great! Don't panic! You've already swam halfway!" Kashiwagi's voice came again, "Trust me! This is not your limit! And this is only the first time! Let's do it again!"
"Qi Duo!"
The voice of Big Mouth Baby then entered the ears of the Harlequin Fish.
It looked at its trainer and companions who were still cheering it on and showed no disappointment on their faces, and mustered up the courage to launch a second charge!
Come again!
Unfortunately, it is not that easy to explode.
The second time I tried to catch the Harpy Clownfish I still didn’t succeed, and I even felt that this time was worse than the last time.
But the trainer shouted, "Very good! It's higher than last time! Don't be afraid! We improve little by little! Let's do it again, Fishclown!"
"Qi Duo!"
Higher than last time?
Harpyfish instinctively chose to trust its trainer and companions, and after realizing that it had made progress, it launched a third charge!
After a few seconds.
Bang!
It fell again.
"It's not as high as last time! But it doesn't matter! Your waterfall climbing posture is getting more and more standard! Once you become proficient, everything will be fine! Let's do it again!"
The trainer's voice sounded for the third time.
The Harlequin Fish still chose to trust and launched the fourth attempt.
"Come on! I feel it this time!"
The fifth time.
"Next time, move a little closer to the center! That's the best spot! This waterfall will be easy for you if you master the technique!"
The sixth time... the seventh time...
Rushing up and down again and again.
The Harpy Fish went from being relaxed at first to feeling tired later, its body went from being sore and numb at first to feeling painful, and its scales seemed to be about to crack.
But what makes it more sad than the fatigue and pain is the fact that it is extremely powerless.
At this point, even the Harpy with the Slow Trait understood that the Trainer and Mouth had been comforting it. In fact, it had not made any progress, and its jumping was getting worse and worse.
Maybe he swam half of it at the beginning, but now he probably only has a quarter of it left.
Can it really jump over it? Can it really overcome this waterfall and move towards a new starting point?
There is a huge gap between the assumption and reality.
The Harpy Fish thought it was no longer afraid of anything, but in the end it found that it was still the same itself and had never changed.
Do you think that being around a group of strong people makes you a strong person too? Can you brag?
no.
My weak and ugly nature has never changed.
Listening to the encouragement from the trainer and Kog'Maw.
It fell again.
At this moment.
The Harpy Fish was so tired that it almost didn't want to swim. With its eyes closed, it could feel the gazes of the Magikarp around it turning into mockery and ridicule.
It seems to be saying that even we don’t dare to challenge you, so who do you think you are to dare to take such a step?
The fact that it gets worse the more you jump is proof of this!
Why? Why?
so tired.
too tired.
I don't want to go on any longer...
"Boom..."
The extremely tired Harlequin fish slowly closed its eyes, and dimly saw a figure jumping into the river, swimming quickly to it and picking it up.
It vaguely saw the other person's face - it was the trainer.
The next moment, the Harlequin Fish fainted completely.
-
"Boom!"
The Harlequin Fish suddenly woke up, then looked around in confusion, and found itself in a familiar fish tank, surrounded by rooms in Meteor Village, and its familiar companions were doing their own things.
Everything that just happened...was it all just a dream?
"Goohoo?"
Woke up?
The big face of Boscodorus appeared in front of it and explained the current situation to it.
The Harpy Fish then realized that everything that just happened was not a dream. It really went to Longmen Waterfall to challenge, and was defeated again and again, disappointing its trainer again and again.
Thinking of this, it blew a bubble sadly.
Nothing makes it sadder than failing to live up to the expectations of its trainer and companions.
The trainer probably doesn't want to see it either, right?
When Boscodorra saw the Harpyfish's look, he growled to comfort it, "Guhou~"
It’s just the first day, no big deal. With gradual improvement, sooner or later I’ll be able to successfully climb over that waterfall.
"Boom~"
The Harlequin Fish shook its head. It knew where its limit was. That waterfall...
It can't climb over it.
“Goohoo.”
Boscodora suddenly became serious and advised Harpyfish to never underestimate its limits. The so-called limits are things that need to be broken through again and again!
The big monster used his own past experience to encourage the Harpy Fish.
However, Harpy thinks that it is normal for a Pokémon as powerful and talented as Boskodora to be able to break through its limits. They are Pokémon from different fields, so why should one be so strong and the other so weak?
"Guhou..."
Boskodora was silent for a while, and told the Harpy Fish that it was not very strong in the past and even now, and it was even very weak in the past.
"Bo?"
Harpy couldn't believe it at all. As the Pokémon most trusted by the trainer, its usual training strength was seen by everyone, so how could it not be powerful?
And it was weak before? It didn't believe it at all.
“Goohoo.”
Boscodoras looked at the Harpy Fish and slowly uncovered his own scars - the days when he was ruthlessly abandoned and lived in darkness in a cave.
Whether the Harlequin Fish believes it or not, that experience is real. The weak Harlequin Fish became an abandoned child and was thrown into a completely unfamiliar and terrible place.
I thought my life would gradually come to an end, but then I met Kashiwagi.
The one who saved it.
In the extremely surprised eyes of the Harlequin, it told the Harlequin everything it had experienced and what happened after encountering Kashiwagi.
Boscodorra was actually relieved, otherwise he would never have said it out loud.
After hearing the whole story, the Harpy Fish couldn't believe that the Boscodorax he had always admired had such a past. He had food and drink even in his loneliest days, so he could never imagine that Boscodorax was suffering from hunger and cold in the cave.
"Boom..."
The Harpy Fish suddenly realized that this seemed to be the first time that it had looked closely at the appearance of the Boscodorus. Before that, due to its excessive admiration and a little inferiority complex, it did not dare to stare at it for too long.
The seemingly extremely hard steel armor was covered with scars of various sizes, each of which represented Boskodora's efforts and perseverance.
It finally understood.
Boskodora was not born strong, he achieved it through hard work step by step.
No matter how weak you have been, no matter what you have experienced.
As long as you don't give up and hear the trainer's encouragement, you must stand up and respond to his expectations. Even at the moment of your death struggle, you must do something heroic enough to turn the tables!
This way you won’t have any regrets!
"Goo ho!"
Boscodora looked directly into the eyes of the Harpyfish and told it seriously that trainers never lie and always do what they say.
He thinks if you can climb that waterfall, you can.
It doesn't matter how many times you fall from it.
There is only one thing you have to do.
the climb!
Go climb!
The Harlequin Fish was excited and swung its tail. It wished it could go to Longmen Waterfall again, move higher and give up all unnecessary thoughts!
Suddenly.
Baimu walked in from the door while wiping his hair. When he saw the awakened Harlequin Fish, he immediately came over with a smile, "Awake? You did a great job today. Although you didn't succeed in climbing over, I believe you have adapted to it."
"Boom!"
The Harlequin Fish nodded firmly.
