You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 134 Teacher Yu's image suddenly became much more impressive.
Like any other weekend, it's time for Orange Academy to have a holiday today.

During the two-day weekend, most students used to go to nearby scenic spots together, and only a minority of good students would challenge the dojo.

However, starting last week, this trend suddenly took a 180-degree turn.

Countless students, eager to compete and having regained their confidence after a week of preparation, walked out of the gates of Tsukita City with their partners without looking back.

They have only one goal, and that is—

The Sunny Gym located in Little Key Town!

If they can reach that place and defeat that utterly unethical martial arts master, then their efforts over the past few weeks will not have been in vain!
……

At the Sunshine Dojo, another dojo challenge is in full swing.

"Oh! They've even taken out the miraculous protective Oni-chan (Shedding Ninja)?"

Upon seeing the Pokémon sent out by the challenger, Qingyu raised an eyebrow and revealed a playful expression.

The ninja dolls have no habitat in Padia, so many players in the game fantasized about something back then—

If Ghost Cicada were to combine with Taijinghua, wouldn't it be virtually invincible?

While there's no legitimate way to achieve this in the game, traveling between different regions isn't difficult in real life.

Therefore, it is reasonable and legal for a trainer in Padonia to own a Celestial.

"The idea is good, but is it possible... that Ghost Cicada is weak to Rock?"

"I see. By using crystallization to become electric, it avoids almost all of Ghost Cicada's weaknesses, leaving only Ground-type..."

"If I'm not mistaken, you ghost cicada, did you bring a balloon prop? You think you're invincible, don't you?"

"That's a good idea, but if I activate a sandstorm, won't you be blown up?"

"Saltstone Giant, Sandstorm!"

Amidst billowing smoke and dust, the ghost cicada, swallowed by the yellow sand, didn't even have a chance to make a move before instantly collapsing to the ground.

"I lost……"

The challenger reluctantly retracted his ninja shell, his eyes gradually becoming somewhat lost.

This was a trump card I had prepared for a long time, and it was completely defeated by a simple weather trick?
I'm afraid I'll never get through this Sunshine Dojo in my lifetime...

No way, I'll give Sunshine Dojo a bad review as soon as I leave!
As the challenger was inwardly grumbling, Qingyu had already walked up to him.

After patting the young man on the shoulder, Qingyu smiled slightly and slowly said:

"That's a great idea. Crystallization can indeed work well with the Miraculous Guardian ability of Ghost Cicada, and it has a very high potential."

"Although you still have some questions about this ability, and you're unaware that weather can still cause normal damage to Pokémon with the Protect ability..."

"But in my opinion, the fact that you can think of this kind of use shows that you already have the most important quality of a trainer, which is creativity."

"So, this gym challenge—"

"You, pass!"

Upon hearing Qingyu's words, the challenger, who had been feeling extremely dejected, suddenly raised his head and looked at the young, sunny gym leader with an incredulous expression.

What's going on? The dojo's undisputed king of torture among the students has actually acknowledged me?
Did the sun rise in the west?
"Don't look at me like that! Do you think Teacher Yu is some kind of bad gym leader who would deliberately prevent you from passing the test?"

Noticing the challenger's strange gaze, Qingyu couldn't help but twitch at the corner of her mouth.

"Why don't you think back carefully? When you little rascals came to challenge the dojo before, didn't you even have to answer the questions on the test paper? And the battles were even more confusing?" "Now at least you know to camp out in the live stream or video to get information in advance, and prepare a more suitable setup based on the dojo assessments each week."

"In other words, under the painstaking supervision of Teacher Yu, you have finally—"

"You've got a brain now!"

Qingyu sighed.

Looking back, all those students who came to challenge the gym a while ago were hotheads. Even knowing that their Pokémon were super effective against their main force, they still went for it.

It would be a miracle if they could even pass their own dojo's exam...

And look at them now, only three weeks have passed, and these little cuties are already showing off all sorts of fancy tricks.

The assessment at Sunshine Dojo this week was very simple, and the questions had already been revealed in advance during the live stream and videos.

Use the Salt Stone Giant, whose salting and stabilizing abilities are unmatched.

After learning this information, in just one morning, I had already witnessed all sorts of fancy tricks from things like Magic Defense Kadabra and Magic Mirror Espeon.

And now there's this little student's Taijing Electric Ghost Cicada, truly a gathering of heroes from all walks of life, a convergence of events in Little Key Town...

Of course, since Salt is an offensive move, Magic Mirror can't reflect it, so the person who challenged it with Espeon will have to be careful next time.

But at least it's clear that they put thought into this match.

After being tactically crushed by him before, these little brothers' clever little brains finally started working again.

Even with your feet on the ground, your intelligence can still take over the high ground!

I, Qing, am not some kind of devil. If you had taken out these things earlier, would you still have failed the dojo test?
You truly are a miracle worker, Doctor Qingyu! You have such miraculous healing skills!

Noticing Qingyu's pleased gaze, the challenger was taken aback for a moment, then began to think—

Could it be that we've all misunderstood Teacher Yu?
Although the Sunny Gym's recent tests have become increasingly challenging, blindly attempting one will only result in disaster, with the Pokémon Center nearby appearing the next second...

But it seems that, just as Teacher Yu said, as long as you prepare in advance, or even just answer the questions carefully before the challenge, you can guess the Pokémon and tactics he will use based on the content of the questions.

The Pokémon that Teacher Yu chose weren't that strong. Even Kingdra, which could use Dragonite repeatedly, was completely countered by Fairy-type Pokémon.

It seems a bit unreasonable that they could be completely crushed under these circumstances.

That's it!

Did Teacher Yu specifically choose these Pokémon as the test to motivate us to work harder?

In the instant he understood, he noticed that Teacher Yu's image beside him suddenly seemed much taller!

……

"Remember to come again next time, and don't forget to leave a good review, dear!"

After seeing the challenger off, Qingyu smiled with satisfaction.

"Although these Parthian students are not very good at academics, at least most of them have a good attitude."

"If this trend continues, there should be more and more challengers who can pass the dojo's test."

"At that time, the reputation of our Sunshine Dojo will naturally improve, right?"

This is truly going to flourish!
