Pokémon, who made him the gym leader?

Chapter 60 My dojo isn't suitable for 'psychological counseling'.

Dojo discussion group.

Cerulean City Gym - Sakura: Wow!! @Rota City Gym - Gushin, Gushin, you're amazing! Are you really a newbie who just graduated from the Pokémon Academy? (Stunned.jpg)

Cerulean Gym - Iris: You're so cool and strong! And I even saw the youngest one! That Crimson guy you battled used to beat us terribly! How did you manage to beat him?

Rota Dojo: Good luck, good luck. (Humble.jpg)

Yuhong Dojo - Rika: Gym Leader Gushin, you don't need to be modest. Your poison shard tactics have truly broadened my horizons.

Dark Grey Dojo - Martial Arts: What are you talking about? (Completely bewildered.jpg)

Cerulean City Gym - Sakura: This is a battle video. I'll share the link in the group. Gym Leader Gushin is really amazing!

Fuchsia Gym - Aju: A very good way to use Poison-type moves. Let's have a friendly spar sometime. I think I have some knowledge of Poison-type moves too. @Rhota Gym - Gushin

Rota City Gym - Gushin: You flatter me, Akari-senpai. I'll definitely visit you in Fuchsia City when I have time. (Simple.jpg)

Gu Xin really didn't expect that A-Ju, a middle-aged man, would watch videos? Well, his sister probably recommended them to him.

After all, the whole family of A-Ju is a poison specialist.

However, there is indeed a chance to exchange and learn from A-Ju, although there is a high probability that A-Ju is a senior executive of the Rockets behind the scenes.

But A-Ju is a good person. He is only loyal to Sakaki, not actually the Rockets.

Nothing was said that night, and the next day arrived quickly.

"Seeing this letter is like seeing you in person, my dear son~ I've already witnessed the progress of the dojo, and the incident with the Saint Théâtre. Indeed, my son is awesome!"

"I knew it a long time ago, my son Guxin has the potential to be a champion! Hahaha~ I'll never break through to the champion level in my lifetime, son, you have to work harder."

"By the way, a few days ago your mom and I found a girl outside. It seems she was kicked out by her family and was quite pitiful. You know your mom, she's very soft-hearted, so we've temporarily adopted her."

"Ahem, to put it simply, son, you've gained a god-sister. Maybe you can video call her sometime, or come to Alola for a couple of days to see your sister. I'll let you in on a secret: this girl is absolutely gorgeous, like a porcelain doll."

"Also, I've already prepared the Pokémon you requested. Speaking of which, son, I'm not being long-winded, but you already have quite a few Pokémon, right? Raising Pokémon takes effort, so don't burn yourself out."

"Like I said, if working at the dojo is too tiring, we'll quit, understand? Our family has enough money to support you for ten lifetimes."

"And then there are those things you mentioned, I also had my men get them done. I heard they're already testing the first Rotom Dex. Heh~ as expected of my son, he has such good taste!"

I woke up early this morning to find a series of text messages from my old friend.

Seeing the undisguised pride in Old Deng's words, Gu Xin couldn't help but smile.

This is the love of family~

A warm feeling washed over Guxin. It felt so good. Hmph~ Since you said that, Old Deng, then I'll go to Padiya and get you a champion-level prize to make you proud.

Speaking of which, the World Championships will be held in the future, so wouldn't it be the same to become number one in the world? Guxin pondered.

As for not being able to become number one in the world? Do you even know what cheating means?

But what's with picking up a goddaughter?

Guxin was a little puzzled, but he didn't take it too seriously. He had an extra sister, and she was from Alora. He didn't have much time to travel to other regions right now.

If I get the chance, I'll make a video call to see what that little sister looks like. Compared to those, let's take a look at the elf that Dad sent over.

Because of the growth simulation cheat, Guxin's Pokémon growth speed is unimaginable to outsiders.

For example, the Litten and Dratini I just got yesterday have already evolved into Tornadoe, but Dratini hasn't evolved yet.

Because in the simulation world, perhaps due to changes made from the game, the evolution levels of the Pokémon in the simulation are exactly the same as in the game.

But in reality, it's not like that. The evolution of Pokémon doesn't have the same strict level requirements as in the game. Sometimes, a Pokémon can suddenly evolve when its emotions are right or when there are other external factors.

Yeah, like James' Magikarp and Ash's Charmander.

"The road to the championship is still quite long."

Gu Xin muttered a complaint as he got up to wash up.

In the growth simulation, the path to becoming a champion is indeed quite difficult, with too many twists and turns, and it will probably take more time than Guxin expected.

However, it's not a big problem, and Guxin isn't in a hurry.

After washing up, Guxin went to prepare breakfast for his Pokémon as usual. Since he now had quite a few Pokémon, it took him a little longer.

But Guxin wasn't annoyed; in fact, he enjoyed it, as he genuinely loved elves.

After preparing breakfast for the Magic Masked Cat and the others, Guxin headed to the equipment room, where his old man, Deng, had sent him a few more Pokémon the night before.

"Come out."

Guxin enlarged the two Poké Balls, and then two white lights flashed.

On the left is a small, deep purple elf with very distinctive sapphire-like eyes, and a red gem on its chest and back.

This is a Ghost-type and Dark-type Sableye.

The one on the right resembles a purplish-pink scorpion, with blue inner wings, two sharp teeth protruding, and a terrifying giant stinger at the tip of its tail.

This is a Scorpio with ground and flight attributes.

"Hello, Scorpio and Hookeye."

Guxin smiled and bent down to look at the two Pokémon.

Scorpion seems to be more extroverted, looking around as soon as it came out of the Poké Ball, while Sableye kept staring at the ground, seemingly more introverted.

Upon hearing Guxin's voice, both Pokémon looked towards Guxin.

"From today onwards, I will be your trainer. Please take good care of me from now on."

Guxin's smile was very warm and gentle, and the power of Tokiwa was also gently overflowing.

Scorpio tilted his head and looked at Gu Xin curiously, his captivating gem-like eyes gleaming slightly, before lowering his head again to stare at the ground.

"Ding~ Scorpius, Ground/Flying type, the Scorpius Pokémon."

Characteristics: Immunity

Special moves: Combo Slash, Lightning Strike, Slam Down, Harden, Sand Splash, Poison Needle, Feint (inherited)

Description: It glides silently through the sky as if it were gliding on the ground, using its large claws on its arms and feet to grab its prey's face before inserting its venomous needles.

*Beep~ Sableye, Dark/Ghost type, Dark Pokémon*

Ability: Heart of Mischief

Special moves: Seeing through, immobilization, surprise attack with a high-five, shadow attack, startling, glaring, grabbing, flattery (inherited).

Description: It lives surreptitiously deep within caves, and people fear it greatly, believing that its eyes, emitting an eerie glow in the darkness, can steal a person's soul.

As expected, they all have hidden traits. Guxin put away the Pokédex with satisfaction.

The immune-type Gliscor evolves into the poison-type Gliscor, which can restore HP after being poisoned. Meanwhile, Sableye with Prankster can prioritize using status moves. Both are very good Pokémon.

Old Deng always gets things done with such confidence.

"Let me introduce you to your other companions; they're all very easy to get along with."

Guxin led the two little newbies toward the backyard.

"If we're going to have a Dark-type team, we'll need to add a few more main units. As for Ghost-types..."

Guxin sat in the backyard, gazing at the Magic Masked Meow and other spirits, some playing and some training, and fell into deep thought.

Now that he's become a trainer, he naturally needs to be proficient in multiple attributes, but he plans to train teams with multiple attributes.

Once the training is complete, we'll put a spinning wheel in the dojo, and challengers will use the team that lands on whichever attribute they want to fight.

Wow~ This is definitely interesting, and it could also serve as a unique feature of the dojo. How perfect.

However, we're just getting started. The poison-type team is sufficient for now, and we can gradually add more later. Guxin is currently more inclined towards Dark or Ghost types.

Both of these teams have rather "interesting" attributes.

"Brother Museum Owner~"

Gu Xin looked in the direction of the sound and saw his younger sister waving at him.

"Brother gym owner, a challenger has arrived!"

"OK."

Guxin nodded and walked towards the dojo.

Upon arriving at the dojo, Guxin immediately spotted the two brothers standing there; they looked very familiar.

Gu Xin raised an eyebrow without making a sound; this was getting interesting.

"Hello, I am Gushin, the headmaster of this dojo."

Guxin walked up to the two of them and introduced himself with a smile.

"Hello, I am Raiji from Veilstone City in the Sinnoh region, and this is my younger brother Shinji."

Lei Si gave a somewhat forced smile and introduced himself to Gu Xin, while also introducing his younger brother behind him.

Shinji stared silently at Gushin without saying a word. Hmm, he seemed like a rather gloomy child.

"Which of you two is going to challenge the gym?"

Gushin glanced at Shinji with curiosity. This was Ash's rival from the Sinnoh Saga of the anime, and arguably the best rival ever created across all the regions.

While Gary is a classic rival, he's more of a childhood friend and confidant. But Shinji is a purely competitive rival, and he and Ash are rivals with different philosophies on Pokémon training.

After all, Shinji's character development was too perfect. In the early stages, his contrasting views with Beedrill and his completely opposite, extreme ideas made people think he was almost a villain. Then, in the middle stages, he underwent slight changes but still persisted on his path. Finally, in the final battle, he was defeated and then acknowledged and said goodbye.

Even in the Journey arc, Shinji specially brought Gyarados, Metagross, and Garchomp to give Ash special training under the guise of battle, which was heartbreaking.

"I want to take on this challenge."

Lei Si paused for a moment before speaking.

Gu Xin glanced at Lei Si and could easily tell that something was wrong with Lei Si's current state.

It's not physical, but mental.

So, Lei Si must have just been defeated by Shen Dai? At this moment, his trainer mentality was almost shattered because of that crushing defeat.

In the original story, when Ash went to Sinnoh, Raibou was a very gentle and sunny older brother. However, in reality, Raibou was also a very extreme person who pursued strength and victory.

Yes, he told Ash and the others that he used to be exactly like Shinji.

"No problem, shall we begin now?"

"Can."

Lei Si let out a long sigh, his expression turning indifferent. The crushing defeat against Shinji had dealt him a heavy blow, and Shinji's words had made him question his own philosophy as a trainer.

But...should I really give up on becoming a trainer?

Lei Si still couldn't make up his mind; perhaps he needed a battle to confirm his will.

"Well, how should I put it? My dojo is a bit special. I hope Mr. Rai can stay strong."

Gu Xin hesitated for a moment, then decided it would be better to give Lei Si a heads-up first.

He roughly understood why Lei Si would challenge the dojo at this time, but frankly, Gu Xin's dojo wasn't suitable for 'psychological counseling'...

Hopefully, Lei Si won't become even more withdrawn after the fight?

"???"

Even though Lei Si, who was already on the battlefield, was a little confused at the moment, he couldn't help but ask two questions when he heard Gu Xin's words.

What does "owner of this museum" mean?
