Divine Plan? But I'm a Pokémon trainer.

Chapter 175: Just an Ordinary Gym Leader
After tricking a naive, studious, and Pokémon-loving boy who was unable to tame Pokémons due to his age into a battle and optimizing the algorithm, Link, noticing that his appointment time was approaching, came to the Orange Gym and began the fifth gym challenge.

Xiaoyou's father, Qianli, is a gym owner who specializes in the general system. The Pokémon he cultivates have strengths far beyond their ordinary appearance. Their fighting style is flexible and varied, and their offensive and defensive growth is balanced.

In the gem version of that year, the leave king did bring a lot of pressure to his forest lizard.

However, when Link traveled through time and re-examined his lineup, he found that the elves cultivated by Qianli were too "ordinary".

Shivering Spot, Hidden Dragon, Floating Bubble, Sonic Monster, Mongoose Slasher and Leave King... Although these Pokémons do have their own characteristics, the general type is really at a disadvantage in reality.

Even though they have the advantage of a wider range of moves to learn, they lack consistent attribute bonuses and often cannot unleash the true power of each type of moves when facing elves of different types.

He is obviously a very good trainer, so why does he have to specialize in such an unremarkable attribute?

"You must be Xiaolin that Xiaoyou told me about before, right? That kid is very enthusiastic about your fighting style, and he kept telling me about his fight with you and Xiaoyao at the gorgeous competition when he came home.

"According to your ability, there is no need to take the test, but the rules are the rules, and I will still do my best as a trainer!"

Link, who had failed to challenge the retired king after playing a tough game with Yasha, was looking forward to it, but there were some things he couldn't understand without asking clearly.

"Then let's have a 6-on-6 doubles match! But before the match, I am really curious about one thing. Gym Master Qianli, why did you choose to become a normal trainer?"

Hearing this, Qianli gave a very firm reply: "Popular tactics and countermeasures to these tactics are modified according to different regions and times, but true strength does not come from change. Pure strength is obtained through hard training day after day, and outstanding trainers must also have an unwavering will."

This is the same for each attribute of the sprite.

Qianli is a person who is strict with himself, responsible, and has perseverance and will. What he pursues is pure strength.

Although this is destined to be a bumpy road, he will spend his entire life adhering to this philosophy.

"I see. It seems that even ordinary trainers have different opinions."

Chisato is a "man who seeks great power", while Aoki is a "superb salaryman".

In fact, Link once considered what attribute would be better to choose when he retires and becomes a gym leader, and his answer was also the general attribute.

But what he pursues is neither "pure" nor "easy to understand", but the "foundation" that anyone can learn, master and apply skillfully.

However, the cultivation of general-type elves is not a priority at the moment...

※After consideration, I decided not to skip this game, skipping the Psychic and Flying Gym. There is nothing much to write about the bully game, so I will just fight the champion-level Mikoli to finish.

The battle began, and both sides sent out their starting elves.

"Come on! Shake the Spotted Monkey and the Hyperactive Ape!"

"Fire Fox, Heat Meowth, prepare for battle."

Just as I imagined, these two elves are of normal attributes.

But how should the Shake-Shake, who Link thought was only good at mixing drinks, be used? "Shake Dance, Chi Fist!"

"Who said that changes are not important?" Link complained subconsciously, and quickly asked the fire fox to start its performance, "Thief Fu, it's up to you."

But I saw Huanghuangban dancing a dizzying and mysterious dance on the spot.

This move will disrupt all the elves on the battlefield except it, making it difficult to fight normally in the chaos.

This is exactly Qianli's tactic. By using the "Shake Dance" to confuse the opponent, Hyperactive Ape, who is equipped with Heart Herb and has the "Drive" trait that can barely ignore the confusion, charges up the "Ki Fist" to kill the opponent's most threatening Pokémon in one blow. This is a move that fully reflects the spirit of doubles!
However, this time his tactic of remaining unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances unexpectedly failed.

"Hyperkinetic ape?"

However, the Hyperactive Ape, which had been able to rely on double protection to be immune to the "Shake Dance" of the Shake Spot, actually looked dizzy while charging, while the conditions of the other two Pokémon were relatively good. The Tolcat even burst out at an astonishing speed and attacked.

It turned out that Fire Fox had first stolen the [Herb of the Soul] from the Hyperactive Ape, and then used this item that could barely resist mental interference to perform the [Mysterious Guardian].

Qianli chose to believe in his hyperactive ape, and asked Huanghuangban to change his tactics and use "self-suggestion" to enable it to obtain the rapidly improving ability of Tornado.

The hyperactive ape, who was unexpectedly caught in confusion, tried hard to suppress the dizziness and spinning feeling, and tried to identify which one of the large group of yellow ducklings in his eyes was his opponent.

After a while, the torrid cat had rushed in front of the hyperactive ape.

"Now!" Qianli shouted, ""True Qi Fist"!"

The tacit understanding gained from daily training with the trainer allowed the confused Hyperactive Monkey to still accurately grasp the location of Tolcarneo, and he punched it head-on with full momentum, as if he could stir up a storm!
The next moment, Torracat meowed contemptuously, and while its opponent was confused and unable to see clearly what was in front of him, it turned flexibly, avoiding the fist of the Hyperactive Ape and pounced on the Shaky Spot who was about to use the "baton".

"Charged Flame Attack" hits the opponent directly, followed by "Double Kick" and Cat Punch.

The latter's moves were interrupted by the continuous attacks. Qianli did not think of rescuing the approaching Madara in time, but chose to rotate without hesitation, taking back the Hyperactive Monkey and sending out a new Pokémon.

"Go! Explosion Monster!"

He has seen that the key point of Link's tactics among these two Pokémons lies in the Fire Fox in the rear, which is why the Scorchcat can rush forward so recklessly.

In this case, his choice is naturally -

"Immediately use Hell Stab on the Sonic Monster."

"Use 'loud voice'!"

This time it was a pure and effective sound-based move that attacked the entire field at once and could penetrate all kinds of defense.

The special body structure of Sonic can greatly enhance sound-based moves. The nearby Infernape and the Fire Fox behind will both be subjected to indiscriminate attacks that cannot be avoided!
However, the instructions Link gave immediately after his rotation were spoken almost simultaneously with him, which surprised Qianli for a moment.

"Take advantage of the opportunity to take over!" But he quickly responded to this.

With its speed enhanced and the trainer's advance instructions, Tolcat is naturally faster than Sonic. Before the opponent opens his mouth, it has already used "Hell Stab" on it!
