Chapter 267 Sunshine Dojo Gets a Complete Upgrade!

Friday, September 1st.

Four days have passed since Sunshine Dojo first demonstrated its systematic tactics.

As usual, Sunshine Dojo welcomed many confident challengers this week.

However, with the gym challenges becoming increasingly difficult, the completion rate this week was significantly lower than in the previous two weeks.

In response, Qingyu also gave a brief recap.

The reason might be that my expectations for these cuties were too high?

Releasing their tactics seems a bit premature for them.

Although their growth has indeed far exceeded their expectations, growth also requires a lot of time and practical experience to truly realize their talents.

Even Meloco, who is also good at playing on the Sunny Day team and ranks relatively high among students, was defeated this week, let alone other ordinary students.

Moreover, even if they learn the Sunny Day Team and some Pokémon usage patterns in gym battles, it is still very difficult for them to replicate them.

After all, training Pokémon in reality requires a lot of time; just training Pokémon is a huge, time-consuming project.

Therefore, it might be unrealistic to expect them to face a new tactic every week and find the corresponding solution.

Let alone the students, even after inheriting the Sunshine Dojo for so long, Qingyu is still a bit far from being able to assemble a complete main team...

Therefore, it is reasonable that the dojo clear rate has decreased this week.

As the head of one of the "Eight Gym Leaders" responsible for assessing the strength of every new trainer on behalf of the League, Qingyu's side cannot afford to be too lenient and allow too many people to pass the assessment. At the same time, he must also appropriately expose weaknesses so that truly outstanding newcomers have room to perform.

In short, it's about dynamically adjusting your intensity to accurately assess the trainer's skill level and the Pokémon's development.

Being a gym leader is really tough...

However, Qingyu quickly came up with a new way to give challengers more room to perform, while also further improving the content of his gym.

Simply put, it adds a new challenge mode that you can choose from in your gym, changing it from a single-choice question to a multiple-choice question.

The new tactics, which are updated weekly, have been changed from mandatory questions to optional questions, serving as an expansion of the question bank and allowing high-achieving students who are willing to challenge themselves with new things and have strong abilities to try them out.

As for students of average skill level, they can also choose a strategy that their team's Pokémon are better at dealing with—

Of course, Qingyu's requirements will not be lowered because of this.

In addition, there are also some "true babies" who have just obtained their starter Pokémon and are probably not meant to be used in tactics for a short period of time, and Qingyu has also taken them into consideration.

Just like the Padia League's assessment requirements this year, dynamic difficulty itself is also a test for gym leaders.

As it happens, Qingyu actually has such a "baby dragon" in his hands. While the two of them are fighting, it can also temper its stubborn personality.

By channeling all their energy into battles, they might be less likely to jump off buildings or headbutt their own calves...

Thinking about it this way, it all seems like a good thing?
Even students who have already earned their badges can return to Sunny Gym to hone their skills by mastering different tactics.

If these students can successfully complete multiple challenges, it indicates that they possess considerable strength and potential, making them worthy of close observation.

Does this mean that the problem of manpower shortage in Parthia has been solved?

What does it mean to achieve multiple benefits in one fell swoop?

In addition, Qingyu also had some ideas about the problem of "insufficient Pokémon reserves," one of the factors that limits trainers' imagination.

As a gym leader with a decent network of connections, he plans to model the Battle Frontiers system and offer a rental service to trainers who want to take on more challenging tasks. Just like he currently rents Pokémon from the League, this would allow trainers to flexibly choose the Pokémon they need based on their battle tactics.

If this can be implemented, it will undoubtedly be a better way to assess a trainer's skill level.

So, where do these Pokémon come from?
The answer is simple: borrow!
In addition to the Pokémon needed for new tactics, we regularly rent a batch of Pokémon from the League and Battle Castle for a fee, and rotate them every now and then.

President Yeci would certainly not refuse his request.

As for the battle castle...

Garderia is gone, and Shi Lan and I are just buddies, so why do we need to be so calculating?

We have to fleece her as much as possible!
With this dual set of rules in place, trainers can assess their Pokémon training and, under Qingyu's guidance, further enhance their tactical thinking.

With this in mind, how could our Sunshine Dojo have a bad reputation?

Qingyu couldn't help but think this, and at the same time, she began to look forward to the joyful expressions on the faces of the newcomers when they saw the brand-new mode.

Do you want to become the strongest trainer in Padonia?

Then let's work hard to conquer all the tactics of the Sunny Gym!

……

night.

After a long week of hard work, Teacher Yu finally got to enjoy his loyal weekend.

Qingyu was watching TV while lying on the sofa, while Sylveon sat obediently on the armrest next to his pillow.

The television was playing a brand new movie produced by Carlos, starring a popular actress and part-time champion who doesn't do her job properly, Karuni.

Compared to love between humans, the main characters in movies and TV shows in this world seem to be mostly Pokémon. The Pokémon that co-stars with Karen is her starter Pokémon, Gardevoir, who is also her absolute ace.

"Buyi..."

As Sylveon watched the flash of white light on the screen, it suddenly murmured wistfully.

Why is it that Gardevoir, already so cute, can evolve again and become a queen exuding a mature aura?

That's so unfair! I want to be more handsome too...

Moreover, the way this Gardevoir looks at the main character is a bit strange, it even looks like it's drooling!
So the bond between humans and Pokémon can be shown so obviously?
Qingyu, who was quietly enjoying the movie, suddenly felt an unusual touch on her arm and subconsciously turned her head to look.

The ribbon that had been extending from Sylveon's neck had somehow wrapped around her arm and was now tied into an adorable pink bow...

Qingyu was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked up at Sylveon.

"Bu, bu yi..."

Noticing Qingyu's gaze, Sylveon instinctively opened its head, its long pink ears standing up high, as if listening to the sounds coming from the television.

Qingyu could only smile slightly, a look of satisfaction on her face at Sylveon's slightly arrogant and coquettish behavior.

Just then, another familiar voice suddenly reached his ears—

"Mwah!"
