Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Its heavy body landed on the ground, raising a large cloud of dust.

Snorlax!

"Block my way." Xia Yan's voice reached Snorlax's ears, and its thick arms spread out, blocking all paths that the Gecko Armor could take to attack Xia Yan.

At the same time, Snorlax's chubby paws grabbed both of its arms while Turtlefoot Armor was momentarily stunned.

"Crack!!"

He roared out.

It's venting its frustration.

Have we been getting a lot of business lately?

It only rested for less than a day, and now it's time for it to make its move again.

After all, Machoke was Hoshino Ryuzaki's grandfather's Pokémon, and Hoshino Ryuzaki didn't know much about it and lacked the ability to command it. He couldn't let Machoke unleash its full power, and for a brief moment, it was restrained by Snorlax.

"Abdominal Drumming, True Qi Fist."

Despite its dissatisfaction, Snorlax didn't intend to disobey Xia Yan.

Xia Yan still owes it several meals.

Now, those who are in debt are the ones who are truly in charge.

"Crack!!"

Snorlax took a deep breath, and a deep red aura emanated from its huge palm. With a slap, it sent the giant armored tortoise flying as if it were swatting a mosquito.

There was no other way; he couldn't be angry with Xia Yan, so he could only vent his anger on the tortoise-footed giant armor.

Not far away, Hoshino Ryuzaki stared wide-eyed at the suddenly appearing Snorlax.

He easily knocked away his greatest asset, the Tortoise-Foot Giant Armor.

He muttered to himself, "How...how could this be..."

Xia Yan raised the corners of his mouth.

It's like everyone has no trump cards up their sleeve.

Chapter Fifty-Seven: How Do You Want to Die?

I wanted to communicate with you as an ordinary person, but now... I'm not pretending anymore, I'm laying my cards on the table!

We have our own trump cards too!

Once hatched, the giant tortoise-footed armor is strong, fast, and has high attack power.

However, the sudden appearance of Snorlax disrupted the attack plan of the Gecko. If the original trainer of the Gecko had been Ryuichi Hoshino, the Elite Four grandfather of Ryusaki Hoshino, the outcome might have been completely different.

Relying on its speed, it can at least entangle with Snorlax for a long time. Although the result will inevitably be the same, once Hoshino Ryuzaki, who is only protected by the Tortoise Shell Armor, sends out the Tortoise Shell Armor, he will be left defenseless.

But at least it won't end so abruptly.

While hatching greatly enhances its speed and attack power, it also makes its defense weak. After Snorlax uses Belly Drum, its physical attack power is maxed out. Combined with Focus Punch, which is super effective against Rock-type Pokémon, it can... truly defeat them with a single slap.

The huge gap that this brought about was difficult for Hoshino Ryuzaki to accept for a while.

Xia Yan walked slowly towards him, step by step.

A trainer without Pokémon is not much different from a chick waiting to be slaughtered.

Hoshino Ryuzaki Chiya finally came to his senses and looked at Natsuhiko with a complicated expression, "Who exactly are you?"

With Beedrill capable of evolving again, Togekiss immune to Dragon Roar, and this near-Elite Four level Snorlax, Hoshino Ryuzaki felt that the more he learned about Xia Yan's identity, the less he understood it.

"Me? I'm just a trainer who climbed up from the bottom." Xia Yan shrugged and said casually.

That's not a lie. Everything he has now is something he has accumulated little by little on his own. Luck is important, but hard work is also indispensable.

Hoshino Ryuzaki was speechless after being taken aback by Natsuhiko's answer.

The grandson of one of the Elite Four members was utterly humiliated by a trainer from the bottom tier.

"Alright, enough nonsense, how do you want to die?" Xia Yan looked at him with a smile.

At this time.

Hoshino Ryuzaki finally realized what was happening.

To die!

His face turned pale in an instant.

This guy is really going to kill himself!

Hoshino Ryuzaki killed many people directly or indirectly, but when it came to his own death, he still couldn't help but feel weak in the knees.

Everyone feels fear when facing death; the difference is that some people show it while others don't.

"Me, my grandfather, the Four Heavenly Kings, I..."

"Is that all the nonsense you have?" Xia Yan shook his head in disappointment.

"No! Let me go. I can give you so much. I can get my grandfather to give you so much!"

"Tsk."

It seemed that he wouldn't get any more valuable information, so Xia Yan stopped listening to his nonsense and threw out a Poké Ball to summon a Coffin.

"I know the secret, I know the secret about this alternate dimension and this ruin!!" Upon seeing the Death Monster, Hoshino Ryuzaki felt death approaching.

He was previously complacent because the three Heavenly Kings were not there to rescue him, thinking that he could gain a lot of benefits with his trump card, and he did not take the others seriously at all.

But at this moment, he had never so hoped that the three heavenly kings could provide proper rescue.

"Oh? Tell me about it?" Xia Yan raised an eyebrow.

Hoshino Ryuzaki swallowed hard, glancing fearfully at the mocking Death Coffin beside him, and stammered, "This...this alternate dimension is...it's probably related to a Ground-type Pokémon. The ruins...the ruins might very well contain...things left behind by that Pokémon..."

"Groudon?" Xia Yan asked.

"You also know?"

Hoshino Ryuzaki was truly bewildered.

Why does he seem to know everything?

While Hoshino Ryuzaki was in a daze, Natsuhiko waved his hand.

Bury it.

"No! No! I..."

Amidst Hoshino Ryuzaki's struggling wails, the Grim Reaper, with an excited expression, dragged him into the coffin and closed the lid.

The noisy, struggling sounds disappeared instantly, and the ruins returned to calm.

Having such a perfect corpse-destroying and evidence-gathering elf is quite convenient.

Before long, the lid of the Coffin of Death opened a crack and spat out several Poké Balls and some supplies or items.

Xia Yan picked up the Poké Ball and collected the Pokémon lying on the ground, including the Giant Tortoise.

These Pokémon were all trained quite well, and their systems were very clear. If Xia Yan hadn't been so familiar with these Pokémon and the Sandstorm system, and if Excadrill, as the number one physical attacker and the most difficult to deal with, hadn't been taken down before it could even play a role, they wouldn't have been defeated so quickly.

At least, if Xia Yan and his identity had been switched, the fight wouldn't have turned out this bad.

These six Pokémon could actually be sold as a set.

While others sell one or two Pokémon that can be paired together, such as a Powerful and a Powerful, Xia Yan is different. He sells a whole six Pokémon, all of which are already paired up. Once you acquire them and tame them, you can form a formidable Sandstorm team.

Xia Yan even includes a simple "Sandstorm Team User Manual" as a bonus.

Buying the eSpirit product comes with a user manual; isn't that excellent service?

Perhaps the people who buy it will understand the importance of the "core" in the team.

However, it would be inconvenient for this team of spirits to act right after Hoshino Ryuzaki's death. If Hoshino Ryuichi found out, he might frantically search for Natsuhiko based on the slightest clue.

But as long as they remain quiet for a while, or simply change their location, there shouldn't be much of a problem in making a sale.

The only thing that's a bit of a pity is that desert dragonfly.

The Desert Dragonfly, having mastered "Meteor Shower," possesses considerable talent and a strong dragon bloodline. With proper nurturing, its potential is quite high.

But it's unusable, and it might attract the attention of Hoshino Ryuichi.

However, the presence of this Flygon can also raise the overall price of all six Pokémon.

Besides.

And that giant tortoise-foot armor, which is at the near-Heavenly King level.

This giant tortoise-footed Pokémon is better trained. After all, it was trained by a trainer at the level of an Elite Four member, and it was a second or even third-tier Pokémon trained with abundant resources, abilities, and subjective awareness.

As we all know, when trainers are raising second- or third-tier Pokémon, they already have a certain foundation and resources, so the requirements for the Pokémon they choose are higher, and they invest more resources in raising them. As a result, the strength and growth potential of the Pokémon will also be higher.

Therefore, this giant tortoise-footed armor is quite valuable, possibly even more valuable than the Sandstorm team composed of six Pokémon.

By taking down Hoshino Ryuzaki, Xia Yan instantly made a fortune.

This is just for a single spirit, not counting the items carried by those spirits, as well as the resources and items carried by Hoshino Ryuzaki.

Compared to dealing with an unknown and weak trainer, the gains from plundering such a "rich kid" are probably unmatched by Xia Yan's ability to deal with dozens of Pokémon hunters.

Of course, high returns also mean high risks.

However, the conditions here are perfect for doing this kind of thing.

Murder and set fire to the gold belt, repair the bridge and repair the road without corpses.

The old saying makes a lot of sense.

"It's making me a little itchy to be among the other League Trainers in this alternate dimension," Xia Yan said with a smile, holding a Poké Ball.

It's no wonder that the bolder members of those underground forces always target these League Trainers.

If you encounter someone like Hoshino Ryuzaki, you could take them down.

It's a typical business model where either you don't open for business at all, or once you do, you can make a living for three years.
