Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

If the child still has complaints, it is indeed because the child is a little immature.

Of course, it is normal for children to be ignorant and there is nothing to blame them for, but judging from the public opinion, everyone thinks that it is Liliae's fault.

However, even though it was only a very brief contact, Tie Xuan could feel that the girl in front of him was a very polite and good child, and it didn't look like...she was a willful young lady who would run away from home because of a little discomfort.

This seems to be somewhat inconsistent with the current public perception. There may be other reasons for this.

"So, what do you want our old man to help you with?"

"Well..." Lowe stepped forward and took over Liliae's words, "I will contact Mr. Daigo and tell him about what happened here. I will tell him the details. I just ask Mr. Tiexuan to keep Liliae's identity a secret~"

Although not revealing one's identity at the beginning could also help maintain confidentiality, Lowe felt that with the old man's eyesight... if he really just secretly summoned Daigo and explained the situation, there was a high probability that the old man would notice it.

So instead of doing it secretly and getting discovered, and then having to explain and make amends afterwards, it would be better to speak out at the beginning. Lowe believes that the old man is a reasonable man.

As long as you ask nicely, he will definitely help.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the old man nodded readily.

"No problem. You guys helped the old man after all. It's just a small thing. However, it seems that there are indeed many hidden secrets. Could that Ultra Beast be related to the Aether Foundation?"

After hearing this, Liliae was surprised again, but Lowe shook his head as if he was used to it.

The alliance's upper echelons just have a few more kindhearted people, they are not idiots. There are already enough suspicious points about the Ether Foundation, so it is only normal for it to be exposed.

In other words, Liliae is really inexperienced and can't think of the key point. In fact, with experience like Tiexuan, after knowing some of the key points, she can understand the reason after a little thought.

But again, it is meaningless for a few people to discover the truth. Unless there is solid evidence, the Ether Foundation can just insist that it is all slander. What can they do to her without evidence?

If things get really bad, it will be very troublesome to get serious with an organization of the size of the Ether Foundation. Even if the alliance is bigger than the opposing force, it is not an organization that can be dealt with casually.

"Then let's go back first~"

"Well, we also have to go to the Pokémon Center first..."

Lowe took one look at the masked cat with half an afro and felt that if he didn't help her take care of her hair, she would bite someone.

He was delayed by some important business just now. He couldn't just take out a hair brush and conditioner to do hair care in the middle of a fight. He had to wait until the matter was over.

"Haha, I understand. Well, I'll go back to the gym first and wait for you to challenge me~"

"Well, I'll be there soon~"

After leaving the underground area on Magneto and returning to the power station, people who were responsible for cleaning up the mess were already waiting there.

A group of people worked to reseal the door that had been forcibly broken open, and Tiexuan also expressed his seriousness.

"The renovation of the underground area has already been planned, and almost everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. Let's take this opportunity to completely renovate this underground area in one go..."

After that, he glanced at Lowe and Liliae again, "Haha, when the renovation is complete, you guys are welcome to come and visit first~"

"Well, that's settled then. Haha, I also promised Director Kusnogi that I would go and observe the launching ceremony of his new submarine~"

"Oh my, that's a really busy man~"

Indeed, when Lowe came to his senses, he realized that he had actually accomplished a lot.

At that moment, they parted ways. Old Man Tiexuan went back to the gym to deal with the backlog of matters there for half a day, while Lowe went back to the Pokémon Center with Miss Joy, who came to the scene to rescue the injured electricians.

"Alright, alright, stop being so stubborn~ Come on..."

Lowe sat on the bed, patted his thigh, and stretched out his hand to the masked cat.

The big cat snorted, as if she was still a little concerned about Lowe's previous laughter. However, she stared at Lowe's thighs for two seconds and decisively chose to follow her inner desires. With a jump, Lowe felt warmth on his legs, and the big cat had already lay on him comfortably.

On the other side, Liliae also supported her chin with both hands, watching with interest as Lowe took out a hair brush, tweezers and small scissors and began to tidy up the afro for Masked Cat.

After all, after more than six years of practice, Lowe is familiar with the process and his hands and feet are working quickly and snapping.

During the process, Eevee sat obediently next to Lowe, licking his own fur, while Kirlia skillfully used telekinesis to help Lowe deliver tools and instantly brought him a cup of hot tea at the right time.

Because of telepathy, he was able to accurately meet Lowe's needs every time, without the need for any words or physical communication, and it went as smoothly as if they were of one mind and one body.

"Okay, solved~"

After working for nearly an hour, the masked cat finally turned back to its beautiful appearance. Lowe smiled and patted the little girl's head. However, she arched her back against Lowe's thigh, as if she didn't want to get off at all...

"...Uh, okay, okay, this is a special reward, next time you will have to 'charge' it~"

Chapter 106 Electric Gym

After letting the masked cat rub against her legs for enough time, she stretched her body comfortably, raised her slender waist and stretched from head to toe.

"..."

When it was still a new leaf cat, this action was nothing special. Now that the big cat was moving in front of Lowe, its soft body seemed to have no bones at all, especially its thin waist and soft flesh. Lowe quickly reached out and pressed her waist.

"Alright, stop shaking. It makes me dizzy..."

As for whether it was dizziness or some other influence, it is inconvenient to say more. Catelyn seemed reluctant to get up at first. Eevee jumped along Catelyn's waist and jumped up lightly, and Catelyn immediately jumped up.

"what……"

Lowe saw clearly that Ibrahimovic's jump seemed to have deliberately stepped on a reflex point. Although it didn't hurt, it was tingling...

...Just because of this tickle, Masked Cat couldn't help but jump up. On the other side, Eevee kicked the wall and jumped directly into Lowe's arms. He tilted his head and smiled at the Masked Cat who was angry and seemed to want to come up and blame him.

"..."

Oh no, could this little guy be a sinister person?

Lowe shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He reached out and held up Eevee's little face, rubbed it hard twice in his palms, and then spoke to the Masked Cat.

"How's it going? I've helped you vent your anger~"

"..."

You obviously just want to rub it yourself, meow!

Although he completely saw through Lowe's thoughts, Masked Cat did not seem angry. Although they were making a lot of noise, they really fought side by side when they fought, so it didn't matter.

But one thing is for sure, there are some things that we should not be too careless about.

The little guy Eevee, relying on his small body, seemed to consciously want to sneak away. When Masked Cat was still New Leaf Cat, he often took advantage of his body to take advantage. She knew this very well.

"...Okay, how was your rest? If not, just rest for a while. If you are done, we will go challenge the gym~ Mr. Tiexuan is very powerful. If you don't prepare well and get enough rest, you will not be able to succeed~"

In response, Catface raised his chin confidently, and Kirlia on the side also responded that there was no problem, to which Lowe also nodded.

"Okay, let's go!"

As she stood up, Liliae beside her also slung over her backpack. Lowe took a look at her bag.

Previously, thanks to the little guy in the backpack who took Riot's two Z moves, Lowe had a chance to win. Otherwise, it might not have been possible to decide the outcome so quickly when facing Electric Beam.

Especially after the generator starts and the electric beam wood absorbs more electricity, its strength will be further enhanced, and it will probably be even more difficult to deal with.

However, judging from the situation of Denbeki, the power of the Ultimate Beasts is also getting stronger.

In other words, they have become more adapted to this world. The previous Ultra Beasts were not even able to stimulate the Ultimate Power, let alone use Z moves and arrange attribute venues.

It's not that the Ultimate Beasts have become stronger, but that they are gradually recovering the strength they should have. The Ultimate Beasts that were knocked down by Lowe before were just defective products whose strength was reduced due to acclimatization.

I don’t know how many more troublesome situations will be waiting if the problem is not solved...

Fortunately, Lowe's own strength is also improving quite quickly. Compared to the Ultimate Beasts who are just recovering their original strength, Lowe is actually making progress every day.

Combining actual combat with experience, and meeting experts, his strength naturally increased...

And the one to be challenged this time is undoubtedly a master...

He is known as the "cheerful old man"... the master of the Shisui City Electric Gym, the oldest gym master in the Hoenn region, and his strength is even higher than Fujiki and Dujuan...

There is still controversy over who is the strongest gym leader in Hoenn. The competition for the first and second place is quite fierce. The strong contenders are Chisato, the father of Lowe, and Mikoli, the gym leader of Liuli City...

There's nothing we can do about it. These two are genuine masters who can fight with champions. They are firmly at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings. They became gym owners for various reasons, which is a dimensionality reduction attack on the fighting power of other gym owners.

The third place will basically be chosen between Grandpa Tiexuan and Miss Naqi, the gym leader of Inyu City. At present, Grandpa Tiexuan has a higher winning rate.

...After all, Grandpa Tiexuan has an advantage in terms of attributes, but if you take all the specific factors into account, they are almost the same.

In other words, what Lowe is going to challenge now... is the top three level of gym masters in the Hoenn region. Although the gap between the top three and the first and second is a little bit big, it is also the level of the real top row in the region.

Soon, Lowe arrived at the gate of the electric shock gym. Before he went in, the staff in charge of welcoming him came up to him and greeted him enthusiastically when they saw Lowe.

"Welcome, welcome. Thanks to your help before. Lord Tiexuan is waiting for your challenge~"

"Haha, then don't keep the old man waiting for too long~"

As he said this, Lowe stepped into the gym, and Liliae beside him quickly followed. As soon as the two entered the gym, they were stunned by the layout of the gym.

Following a burst of powerful music and a piece of heavy metal rock music, the lights in the gym focused on the other side of the arena. Old man Tiexuan waved to Lowe and the other two familiarly.

"...Hey, here you come, Lowe~"

"This really surprised me..." Lowe looked around and found that different gyms had their own characteristics.

For example, Lowe's father's martial arts gym, Du Juan's gym is closer to the Pokémon Academy, focusing on teaching new trainers all kinds of basic knowledge, while Fujishu's gym is completely a boxing gym. Although Lowe and him did not fight in the gym, the effect is actually similar.

And Mr. Tiexuan’s gym is actually in the style of a heavy metal rock band, highlighting punk.

In the past, I didn’t realize that the old man was a rock fan…

"Haha, I suddenly fell in love with music and rock music after I got older. Many people say that this is a hobby of young people, but I don't think so. I accept all new things anytime and anywhere. The so-called Zijin City is such a place, and so is my life..."

From a corporate slave who pursued development and performance, to a gym owner who repented and corrected his mistakes, to the cheerful, lively and popular old man...

Life is always changing, but one thing never changes...

"…All my love for Pokémon is concentrated here~"

The old man took out a Poké Ball, and his eyes sparkled with an incredible light...

"Come and feel... this electrical shock!"

As the rapid melody suddenly rose, the Poké Ball in Tiexuan's hand flew into the arena with a string of golden arcs...

Pokémon Duel...

……start!
