The strongest gym leader starts by beating up Gary.

【Level: 18】

[Attribute: Dragon + Fire]

[Talent: Top-tier!]

【Characteristic: Solar Power (Special Attack is increased by 1.5 times in sunny weather, but HP consumption rate will also increase)】

【Item to carry: Dragon Scale】

[Skills: Roar, Tackle, Claw, Dragon Pulse, Dragon's Fury, Swiftness (inherited), Outrage (inherited)]

[Special Talent: The unique Reverse Scale state grants Charmeleon even greater combat power, but it also brings greater side effects.]

[Comment: Abandoned by his tribe and parents, he could only fill his dull and sensitive heart with training. The rich dragon blood within him made him more like a miniature dragon than a small fire dragon.]

"It's out of control."

Fang Yuan looked at the out-of-control Charizard and stroked his chin.

"But this explosive burning feeling, I must say, is quite similar to the enhanced version of Ash's future senior Pokémon."

At this moment, Bulbasaur stood firmly in front of Fang Yuan, and there was no fear in its eyes when it looked at Charmeleon!

As the princess, or rather, queen, of the Venusaur clan, Bulbasaur will never back down.

"It's alright, Bulbasaur, he can't hurt me."

Just as Bulbasaur was wondering what was going on, a huge footstep came from the ground of the crater.

A blue figure leaped into the air and crashed down in front of Fang Yuan and Charmeleon!

Swampert, come on!

Chapter 219 We are all living hard

Swampert is not the strongest Pokémon Fang Yuan has ever used.

Leaving aside the bug with Mewtwo, there's also Tyranitar, the cheap daddy, and Latias, who's currently still in the Dragon's Lair.

They are all much stronger than Swamp Monster.

But when the Swamp Monster's broad back stood in front of Fang Yuan.

The sense of security that it gave Fang Yuan was unparalleled.

"Swamp Monster, let me teach this newcomer a lesson."

"Don't hit too hard."

Swampert narrowed its eyes as it looked at Charizard, which had entered its special state of Outrage and Berserk mode, and thought to itself...

"I should have taught him a lesson myself back then."

Swampert swung its fist, and its massive body unleashed astonishing speed.

'But it's not too late to clean up now!'

With just one punch, the Charizard in its reverse scale state was slammed directly into the ground, the terrifying force causing cracks to appear on the crater floor like a spider web.

Swampert glanced at Charizard with a blank expression.

However, Swampert looked at the flames burning on its fist and a hint of surprise flashed in its eyes.

This flame is extraordinary.

Fang Yuan then explained

"Although this flame looks like a flame, it should be closer to dragon flame, that is, dragon energy is the main component, but it is manifested as a flame."

Swampert nodded thoughtfully.

But just then, Swampert seemed to sense something and slowly turned its head back.

Although the Charizard was bruised and swollen and teetering on the verge of collapse, it actually managed to get up.

"He took a punch from Swampert and didn't fall down? That's interesting."

Just as water began to condense on Swampert's fist, preparing to unleash a long-awaited ranged attack.

A black vehicle, accompanied by billowing sandstorms, was seen rushing towards them from the ground not far away.

Moreover, due to the excessive speed, Shakira was unable to see what was in front of him.

Charmeleon finally managed to climb out of the pit, only to be rammed and sent flying by Shakira, which couldn't brake in time!

The speed was so fast that it made people feel ashamed.

The elves and humans stared blankly at Shakira.

Shakira looked apologetically at the Charizard that had been knocked away, and quickly jumped over.

"Sha (I didn't mean to, you know we Shakira can only hop and jump, it's really troublesome...)"

Fang Yuan silently gave Shakira a thumbs up.

After all, Shakira's collision saved Fang Yuan a lot of trouble.

Such a commotion in the backyard naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Nanami Oki, who was closest, was the first to run over.

"Master, what happened?"

Then Xiao Mao and Xiao Wen arrived.

"Master, what's the meaning of the red light in the backyard?"

"Could it be a volcanic eruption?"

Fang Yuan, seeing the astonished crowd, coughed lightly and said...

"It's not that dramatic, it's just that my Charmander evolved."

"What are those spider webs on the ground?" Xiao Mao asked, puzzled.

"The Charmeleon accidentally fell," Fang Yuan said seriously.

"But Gym Leader, why did Charizard faint?" Nanami asked, looking at the unconscious Charizard.

"Hmm~ Evolution is too tiring, I guess I've fallen asleep."

However, people soon noticed that Charmeleon's tail was no longer as bald as it had been when it was a baby Charmander.

Instead, it was burning with raging flames.

"Master is indeed a master. He solved the problem of Charmeleon not being able to use fire so quickly." Gary flattered him in a subtle way.

"Can't use fire? Can't use it after evolution? This is excellent research material!" Nanami's eyes gleamed with a research spirit.

"Alright, it's just an evolution, nothing important. You can all go back to your work."

Nanami and Shigeru nodded.

At this moment, Xiaowen leaned close to Fang Yuan and said...

"Gym Leader, as per your request, I have found a few clever local kids from Matsumo City, as well as one or two trainers with some potential, to serve as the most basic gym apprentices."

"When the time comes, you can go and see who can stay and who doesn't need to."

Fang Yuan nodded. He trusted Xiao Wen's abilities.

Although Xiaowen rarely spars, she handles most of the miscellaneous affairs in the dojo, making her practically the head housekeeper of the Matsuzo Dojo.

After arranging everything, Fang Yuan led the Pokémon to the 'sleeping' Charmeleon.

Although Fang Yuan has captured many, many Pokémon.

After all, all the elves in the back garden are actually Fang Yuan's elves, just with different breeding methods.

Fang Yuan had captured dozens of Pokémon, but Charmeleon was the first to go berserk and even disobey commands, so the other Pokémon looked at Charmeleon with a somewhat subtle expression.

"Charmeleon, are you alright?"

Fang Yuan looked at the Charizard with a puzzled expression.

Judging from the panel or based on Fang Yuan's experience, the Charmeleon should have woken up by now, right?

Fang Yuan suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Could this guy be pretending to be asleep because he almost attacked me after losing his mind?"

Fang Yuan smiled slightly.

At this moment, Bulbasaur very thoughtfully found a small yellow flower nearby.

This little flower looks quite ordinary.

However, the smell was extremely pungent.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Bulbasaur unceremoniously stuffed the small yellow flower directly into Charmeleon's nostril.

The next second, Charizard could no longer keep up the act, its eyes widened, and it sneezed several times.

The Charmander choked so much that tears almost came to its eyes.

Then Charmeleon slowly raised its head and glanced at Fang Yuan, before lowering it again apologetically.

Charmander was now prepared to be scolded by Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan simply smiled and patted Charizard's head, slowly channeling Tokiwa's power into Charizard's body to help it recover from its injuries.

"Don't worry, I know you were in a berserk state at that time, and I won't blame you for it."

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's words, Charmander looked up in surprise and gazed at Fang Yuan with a grateful expression.

"Train hard, this is a power you were born with."

"Try to control it. When you are strong enough, I will take you back to the Fire Dragon Valley, and then we will find the mother who abandoned you."

Charmeleon took out a pale yellow scale from under the dragon scales on its chest.

That was the only thing his mother gave him before she left.

Then Charmeleon gritted its teeth and handed the Dragonite scale to Fang Yuan, asking him to keep it safe for it.

Once Charizard can fully control its power, he will take it back from Fang Yuan!

Fang Yuan looked at the scales handed over from the fire control panel and felt a pang of emotion. He carefully put away the scales, which were of great significance to the Charmeleon.

"Alright, these dragon scales will be kept in safekeeping for now."

"And this is to celebrate the reward that your evolution has given you."

[Dragon Fang: A dragon fang left behind by a Dragon-type Pokémon of Champion rank. It can slightly increase the power of the user's Dragon-type moves.]

Charmeleon carefully put on Fang Yuan's Dragon Fang.

The Charmeleon, having just completed its evolution, couldn't wait to start training!

Charmeleon then turned its gaze to Swampert.

Swampert was in a state of neither disliking nor particularly liking Charmeleon at this point.

Since he likes to follow, then let him follow.

However, after seeing the gift Fang Yuan gave to Charmeleon, Vulpix and Bulbasaur couldn't sit still and gathered around Fang Yuan.

Especially the Six-Tails, which jumped directly into Fang Yuan's arms and licked Fang Yuan's face with its little tongue.

"You little rascal."

Chapter 220 The Secret Realm of the Joey Clan

There was nothing Fang Yuan could do but give the little six-tailed fox the top-quality charcoal he had prepared beforehand.

However, even after obtaining the finest charcoal, the greedy Six-Tails was still not satisfied. It jumped to the ground, shook its body, and transformed into a fire-attribute Six-Tails.
