Good morning, noon and night, hello, trainer

"???"

Although Serena was full of questions, she still went to the command platform.

The black technology of the Pokémon world.

Even though the venue was partially destroyed due to the battle between Xiao Mao and Darko, with just one button pressed, the robotic arms extending from all sides could easily restore it to its original appearance.

When the next challenger came in, he saw another standard battle field.

"As expected of a reconstruction funded by the Alliance, these are all the latest models!"

Yali also sighed.

If he obtains the qualifications of a gym leader, not only will the Tokiwa Gym belong to him, but the entire land will also be given to him as a gift.

The gym owner has the final say on how to renovate and develop the gym in the future.

All you have to do is do a good job of assessing gym leaders, training new trainers, and protecting the city.

But why hasn't the challenger come in yet?

Yali turned her head and the first thing she saw was a fire.

Right at the gate, the gate of the Tokiwa Gym, the group of suspected challengers started a fire!

"So exciting! Xiaozhi is really excited!"

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the door.

Yali sweats like soybeans.

It was on fire, and the fire even set Xiaozhi's shoes on fire.

After putting out the fire, Xiaozhi and his Pikachu thanked each other again.

They looked at each other with tears in their eyes, performing a drama of mutual encouragement between men.

"...So, is this some hilarious skit?"

Unable to bear the consequences of going out, Yali activated the fire extinguishing system and put out the fire.

"Ah! The flame of our fighting spirit! It's extinguished!"

"Pikapi!"

Unexpectedly, this action seemed to aggravate Xiaozhi's condition.

He and Pikachu knelt directly in front of the extinguished fire, clenching their fists, their faces filled with inexplicable resentment.

Yali felt that her expression had completely turned into a sweaty soybean.

"It's Yali!"

Fortunately, there are still normal people in Xiaozhi's team.

Misty quickly grabbed Xiaozhi's ear and twisted it, successfully adjusting him to normal mode.

Well, maybe normal.

"Why is Yali here?"

Holding Togepi, he greeted Ali.

"Ali is here, which means..."

But Xiaogang couldn't wait to look inside the Tokiwa Gym.

Ignoring Serena who was standing on the gym's main podium, he straightened up immediately when he saw Yuto Sundae pause and finally land on Lars!

The bright red outfit does not look tacky at all, but rather noble and generous. Every frown and smile, even the serious expression during an argument, carries an intellectual charm!

"At such a young age, she is full of the intelligence and gentleness of an older sister."

"I'm really looking forward to it after more than ten years!"

Xiaogang gave a thumbs up, tears streaming down his face.

The heart that was taken away by Las (the appearance of a strange tree) went to that lady.

"...What are you going crazy about?"

Xiaoxia was too tired to complain.

What is this?

"Ari, since you're here, does that mean Lars is also challenging the Viridian Gym?"

Xiaozhi suddenly jumped out and held Ali's hands.

Pikachu is much more direct.

He rushed straight in, locked onto Las (in the form of a Ho-Oh girl), and climbed onto her shoulder to say hello!

"Pikapi...?"

A pair of orange-red eyes, raised in Las's arms, were staring at it closely!

Pikachu suddenly shuddered!

"Ah, it's Pikachu!"

But Lasco didn't care about that.

He took out Pikachu's favorite food and put it together with Machado.

The smell is still the same as Lass, and the smoothing technique is even more comfortable than last time.

However, now that there is a "classmate" around him who is full of resentment, Pikachu is a little sweaty.

"Pikachu!?"

Fortunately, Serena came over at this time, giving Pikachu an excuse to leave and run to Serena to wipe the sweat off his face.

After confirming that Machado was no longer staring at it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This made Serena very excited!

She actually got a Pikachu kiss! From Lars! Is this what distance makes beauty come true?!

He immediately showed Pikachu the fur-smoothing technique he had learned from Russ!

"Pickup truck..." is pretty average.

Pikachu was very hesitant about whether to express his opinion.

"Xiao Mao!?"

"Why are you here too?!"

At this moment, Xiaozhi came in and exclaimed!

It wouldn't be a surprise to see Lars there, since he had already met Ali.

But he was surprised to see Xiaomao was there too!

"Is Xiaomao here to challenge the Viridian Gym as well?"

"You say that, which means you haven't collected all eight badges yet?" Xiao Mao subconsciously gave Xiaozhi a disdainful smile as if it was a conditioned reflex, and asked back contemptuously.

At the same time, he pulled out his badge box and opened it towards Ash, revealing over a dozen different gym badges.

"I'm different from you. I have enough badges to attend two Quartz Conferences!"

Glancing at Lars.

"By the way, Lars also collected all eight badges early on, and this time, Xiaozhi, you are the last one!"

"hateful!"

This couldn't help but make Xiaozhi blush.

Immediately look around for the Viridian Gym Leader.

He must challenge immediately and let Xiao Mao see his current strength!

"No need to look for him, Lars is the current acting gym leader of the Viridian Gym."

Xiao Mao pointed at Lars and said.

As soon as this news came out, Xiaozhi and his friends were all surprised.

"Lars is the acting gym leader!?"

"What!? This lady is also Lars?!"

When Xiaoxia heard Xiaogang's exclamation, she immediately looked carefully at Las's current appearance.

After the surprise, I turned into sweating soybeans.

"Whose appearance is this?"

Every time Xiaoxia sees Las, she feels an inexplicable pressure.

This time is even more so.

Subconsciously, I made myself more ladylike.

"The photographer's."

When Machado heard this, he hit Las' chest with his little fist in displeasure.

A little itchy.

"So I'm going to fight Lars, huh?"

Xiaozhi was completely excited.

"Okay, I'm ready, Lars!"

"I am now completely different from the person I was before!"

But Pikachu remained silent, pretending to enjoy Serena's massage and pretending not to hear.

"Although I'm the acting gym leader, if Ash were to challenge me, Serena would be more suitable."

Lars directed Ash's attention to Serena.

Serena immediately greeted Xiaozhi shyly:

"Xiaozhi, long time no see!"

"Serena said she wanted to learn combat, so Lars made her a gym assistant."

Xiao Mao explained on the side.

"Specially allowing Serena to fight low-level challengers as a gym leader!"

Bite hard on the "low level".

Xiao Mao spared no effort to belittle Xiaozhi's level.

I don’t know who was so confident that Ash could definitely capture Articuno.

But Xiaozhi didn't care so much about this.

His attention was focused on the information that Serena was learning about the battle.

"Yeah!"

"Serena is learning to fight!"

"Then let's have a fight!"

"Pikapi!"

When Pikachu heard this, he quickly ran back to Ash's shoulder.

After the last Doll Festival, it is no longer so resistant to fighting with familiar people.

"Uh... well... I've only just started learning..."

But Serena wanted to back down a little bit.

After all, she learned to fight because she wanted to stand beside Xiaozhi, not against him.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly pressed against her back.

Stop her from retreating.
