Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Just listening to it makes me feel like it's going to be interesting.

Xia Yan pressed his forehead.

No matter which world he's in, Watari's love of battle remains exactly the same.

but.

Xia Yan did not immediately refuse.

He also wanted to see the strength of the Four Heavenly Kings of this world through a battle with Wataru.

This way, he'll have a better idea of ​​what to expect when he challenges the Four Heavenly Kings later.

But it's not good to go too far either.

To avoid ruining the ferry.

After clicking his tongue, Xia Yan slowly said, "Then... let's have a short match?"

"Shallow strike?" Watari was taken aback.

"It means we'll have a one-on-one match, just to have a quick battle. After all, the Pokémon aren't in great shape after dealing with Team Rocket," Xia Yan explained.

"no problem!"

Du immediately became interested.

Although it was just a simple one-on-one session, it didn't meet his expectations.

He was also thinking about whether he could at least play a three-on-three match.

However, having something to fight is better than having nothing to fight.

"Pay attention to this."

Kona, who was next to Watanabe, frowned and said something.

Others may not know what Du truly wants.

But Lorelei, who was also one of the Four Heavenly Kings and had been both his rival and his contemporary for so long, was also a contender.

I know too much about Du.

It seemed like just an ordinary battle.

But in fact.

The simpler the battle, the more you can see a trainer's personality and qualities.

Many things are not apparent from the surface.

However, these flaws are often revealed through actual combat.

For example.

He usually appears to be a gentle and refined person.

When it comes to battles, their temper becomes extremely fiery, and they take winning or losing very seriously, often cursing the stick spirit.

Such a person has absolutely no chance of going very far or reaching a high position in the league.

"I know," Watari nodded.

just.

Kona clearly underestimated Xia Yan's understanding of Wataru.

He dared not tell others.

But regarding Yulongdu's personality.

Xia Yan was confident that he could completely control the situation.

The crossing is the same in every world.

"Then I'll be the referee," Qinglu volunteered.

As the Gym Leader of Viridian Dojo, Qinglv is the most qualified.

soon.

The battle arena, which was originally used by many Pokémon for training, was now empty.

Xia Yan and Du stood on opposite sides of the field.

Red, Blue, Kona, and others took their seats in the audience.

"Xia Yan, don't hold back. Beat him to death!"

Kona, sitting upright like a queen with her fists clenched, spoke to Xia Yan.

"Go, Teacher Xia Yan!" Chi Hong shouted as well.

"Teacher Xia Yan~~" Xiao Lan and Xiao Huang even took on the role of cheerleaders.

This prompted Professor Oak to sigh repeatedly.

"It's so good to be young."

Du, standing beside the field, twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Why do I feel like everyone has turned against me, like I'm some kind of villain?" Du looked at Xia Yan, his face full of helplessness.

He was the one who met Crimson and the others first.

Xia Yan waved his hand, and a Poké Ball appeared in his hand.

He smiled and said to Watari, "Be more confident, and drop the word 'feeling'."

"Goodness," Wataru laughed.

do not know why.

Although it was the first time he had met Xia Yan, he was not averse to Xia Yan, and even had a faint... admiration for him?

The reason he made so many attempts was simply because of his professional instincts.

"bring it on."

A Poké Ball also appeared in Lance's hand.

"This battle is a one-on-one battle. The battle ends when either player's Pokémon is unable to battle!"

Qinglv looked quite professional, picking up two flags.

"Now, both sides, please summon your spirits!"

Chapter 106 "Shallow" Strike?

As the referee's green voice fell.

Xia Yan and Du simultaneously threw out their Poké Balls.

"Roar--!!"

Amidst the red light.

The Dragonite, covered in bright orange scales, appeared before everyone with a powerful roar.

"Mr. Wataru seems to have more than one Dragonite, right?"

Upon seeing Dragonite, Red couldn't help but ask.

“Yes.” Lorelei rolled his eyes. “He has three main Dragonite, and even more non-main ones. He’s a pure Flying-type Elite Four member.”

"This one... is a Heavenly King level?" After a brief hesitation, Little Silver had an answer.

"Mr. Wataru's Dragonite is very eager to fight."

Feeling the aura of Dragonite, Xiao Huang, holding the slightly frightened Qiu Qiu, couldn't help but express his opinion.

"Awoo~~"

the other side.

Compared to Lance's Dragonite, Xia Yan's Nine-Tails seemed relatively less imposing.

However, having a strong presence is one thing, but it doesn't mean that Ninetales would be intimidated by Dragonite.

"No matter how many times I see it, I still think that Teacher Xia Yan's nine-tailed fox is very beautiful."

Xiao Lan looked at the nine tails fluttering and swaying, its slender body displaying a perfect physique, and said.

Little Yellow sensed Kurama's inner thoughts, "Hmm, Kurama is quite strong-willed too."

Kona nodded.

"Using Ice-type moves to counter Lance's Dragonite is definitely the right choice."

Professor Oak's eyes lit up.

"An Ice-type Ninetales? That's quite rare. Is it a Pokémon from the Alola region?"

"The Alola region?" Red looked at Professor Oak.

"It's a region that's very far from us, and it's still in the early stages of development. I happen to have a cousin who works in the Alola region, and he's the one who provided me with some information about the Alola region."

As he spoke, Professor Oak gestured to everyone, "I've upgraded your Pokédex to the National Edition, and it should now contain information about the Ice-type Ninetales."

Upon hearing this...

Several encyclopedia owners took out their brand-new national edition encyclopedias.

as predicted.

After this significant upgrade, the Pokédex now includes data on almost all Pokémon.

Information about Xia Yan's Nine-Tails, specifically the Alolan Nine-Tails, was also presented to everyone.

"Alolan Ninetales... Ice type and... Fairy type?"

Fairy type?

This was the first time they had ever heard of this attribute.

but.
