I caught a Pokémon

The boy panicked and begged desperately, but when Xia You ignored him, he gave up and started cursing loudly!

Xia You found him too noisy, so she picked up a stone, stuffed it into his mouth, and tore off the tape to seal his mouth shut.

Now, the boy was completely at a loss.

Not long after, Miss Officer Jenny, riding her motorcycle, braked suddenly and came to a cool stop in front of Xia You, kicking up clouds of exhaust fumes.

"Who called the police?" she asked with a confident and spirited air.

"Cough cough..." Xia You fanned herself away from the acrid smoke and said, "It's me!"

After explaining the situation, Miss Officer Jenny stared at the boy with wide eyes, clearly very angry.

"Kyuta! I can't believe you're so incorrigible. No matter who pleads for you now, it's no use! Come with me to the police station!"

"Waaah!"

The boy named Keita struggled desperately, but Officer Jenny didn't untie his bandages. Instead, she put cold handcuffs on him and shoved him into the car.

Watching the motorcycle leave, Xia You remained completely unmoved.

For him, this was just a brief interlude in life, a trivial matter that he could easily resolve, and there was no need to take it to heart.

However, before Miss Officer Jenny left, Xia You happened to get a useful piece of information from her.

It turns out that there is a cross-sea bridge under construction on the outskirts of Fuchsia City, which will connect to Sunshine Town on the other side!

Taking this route will not only save a lot of time, but Sunny Town is also very close to Rainbow City and Golden City, so we can go there first to retrieve the Silver Mirror that Nazja left for him!

Since it was on the way and there was no rush to challenge the Evergreen Gym, Xia You simply changed her destination again and headed towards Saffron City.

……

After passing through the bustling city of Light Red and walking past the towering shopping malls, Xia You finally arrived at the northern seaside.

Looking out over the sea, all you can see is a cross-sea bridge that seems to stretch as far as the eye can see!

This magnificent structure, made of reinforced concrete and supported by hundreds of piers, is said to be about 20 kilometers long. If you were to walk, it would take until dark to reach the other side.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the bridge, one can see several railings surrounding the bridge entrance.

Although the bridge is not officially completed, only cars cannot pass through; pedestrians can still ride bicycles and cross freely.

As Xia You approached, a security guard poked his head out from the gate.

"Eh? Sir, are you planning to cross the bridge?"

Seeing Xia You nod, the security personnel smiled and said, "I'm afraid that won't work. This bridge is too long and walking is not allowed. If you really want to cross the bridge, you'll need a bicycle."

Xia You had some recollection of the rules here. He hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't give up, so he said, "Hey? Can't you make an exception?"

"I'm so sorry," the security personnel said with a wry smile, "It's the rule, there's nothing I can do about it."

With a sigh, Xia You was about to ride her Gyarados across the sea when she saw a group of men and women wearing sunglasses, with dyed and permed hair, dressed like delinquents, riding modified bicycles and rushing toward her.

As they rode their bikes, some people held flags and shouted loudly, making a huge commotion, like a flock of crows passing by!

"Sigh." The security guard sighed beside him, saying helplessly, "I can't stand it anymore. It's always these bikers making a racket every day. They're so annoying."

Although she still vaguely remembered the plot of this place, Xia You couldn't help but complain when she saw these people: "Uh... bicycles have biker gangs too... that's so embarrassing."

"Who told these people to be just kids?" The security guard shrugged. "They don't have the extra money to buy those expensive motorcycles. But if things continue like this, it's only a matter of time before they become motorcycle gangs."

Xia You looked closely and realized that they were indeed not very old, around seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Since they're making so much noise, isn't anyone going to do anything about it?"

"There's no way to control them." The security personnel shook their heads. "These people may be causing trouble, but they're just riding their bicycles together and going back and forth on the bridge. Strictly speaking, they haven't damaged the bridge. Besides, they're all kids from around here. Although they're afraid of the police, if we arrest them for public order offenses, their parents might surround the police station the next day!"

"That is indeed quite difficult."

As they were talking, the group of people rode up in front of them, and looking at the bicycles under their bodies, Xia You suddenly had an idea.

He took a few steps forward and blocked their way.

Upon seeing that someone dared to block the only way to get onto the bridge, the group stopped and frowned.

"Hey! Who are you? Why are you stopping us?"

Xia You took out a Poké Ball and said with a smile, "I need a bicycle to get to the other side. How about it? Want to have a contest with me? If I win, you can lend me a bicycle."

A young man with a fiery red afro, who looked like a leader, took off his sunglasses.

"Huh?! Someone dares to challenge us?! You're really ignorant of your own limitations! Haven't you heard of our great name?"

"I'm sorry, forgive my ignorance, but I've truly never heard of your deeds." Xia You's tone was infuriating. "So, do you want to have a match or not?"

"Of course we'll have a match!" The young man sized up Xia You, then flicked his thumb backward and pointed to a makeshift battleground in the distance. "We're always the ones challenging others; no one has ever dared to challenge us! If you're really not afraid of death, come with us over there!"

Chapter 96 Masami

On a battleground near the sea, Xia You and the young man each stood in their respective trainer command areas.

Around them, a dozen or so oddly dressed bikers stood scattered about, their faces full of mockery.

"Go for it, Martha! Show him what you're made of!"

"Give him a good talking-to!"

Whistles, shouts, and cheers mingled together, creating a noisy commotion despite there being only a dozen or so people.

Martha smiled confidently, took out a Poké Ball from her pocket, and released her Pokémon.

"Come out, Rumblebee!"

A Pokémon with a turtle-like head, gray-brown claws, and a body covered in rocks appeared in the arena.

Pokémon Pokédex entry: "Drip, Golem, a heavyweight Pokémon, Rock/Ground type, the final evolution of Geodude. Its body is made of rock-hard material, so it won't be hurt even if it's hit by explosives. And with each molt, its body gradually grows larger."

Xia You took out a Poké Ball from his waist and sent out his Pokémon as well.

"I don't need to restrain your Pokémon to bully you, so I just picked one randomly. Go, Kirlia!"

When Kirlia appeared, these naive biker gang members, who had never known the outside world, stared wide-eyed at the sight of such a rare Pokémon.

Even in the crowd, a girl with dark green hair, a bare belly button, and wearing a leather jacket and miniskirt let out a gasp of surprise.

"Wow, is its name Kirlia? What a beautiful Pokémon!"

Staring at Xia You, Martha shouted, "Stop talking big! Don't think you can defeat me with a Pokémon we've never seen before! Golem, use Rollout!"

Golem retracted its limbs, shrinking completely into a round stone, and rolled rapidly toward Kirlia.

Just as Xia You had a thought, Kirlia raised her hands, using her psychic powers to envelop the Golem and lift it high into the air.

"Tch!" Martha gritted her teeth. "It's a superpower attribute..."

As Kirlia swung its arm down, Golem slammed heavily into the ground. However, being a Ground/Rock-type Pokémon, and with its thick rocky skin, it didn't suffer much damage.

Unable to get close, Martha had no choice but to shout, "Rumble Rock, rockfall attack!"

Rocks materialized in the sky and then hurtled towards Kirlia, but Kirlia neutralized them with a single teleport.

Just as Golem was about to continue its attack, it was once again enveloped by telekinesis, flew into the air, and crashed down heavily.

boom!

A large crater appeared in the ground. Just as it was struggling to crawl out, Kirlia had already teleported behind it. At the same time, magic leaves glowing green formed around Kirlia and swept over Golem!

"Gronteid, harden quickly!"

Amid Martha's panicked cries, the magic leaf struck the rumbler rock squarely.

Grassland!

Grass and rocks!

The effect is outstanding!

Rumblebee has fallen...

"this…"

The surroundings fell silent instantly. These biker gang members never dreamed that the man in front of them would not utter a word, yet his Pokémon had easily ended the battle!

"Marca..."

After a brief silence, they opened their mouths, seemingly wanting to offer words of comfort, but unsure of what to say.

Just then, the green-haired girl who had just exclaimed in surprise came out.

"That's really impressive!" She looked at Xia You and said seriously, "But defeating him is nothing to be happy about. If you want to gain our approval, you'll have to defeat me first!"

"Wow!" A cheer erupted from the crowd. "As expected of Sister Misa! She's so reliable!"

"Boss Masa, you must avenge Masa! Teach this guy a lesson!"

After retrieving the Golem, Martha waited for Misa to approach and whispered a reminder: "Sister... this guy is really powerful, you'd better be careful."

I never noticed when I watched the anime that Masa and Misa were siblings, but now I know they are siblings.

Upon closer inspection, this cool girl with a rebellious air is actually quite beautiful.

Misa nodded and turned to Xia You.

"Want to raise the stakes? If I win, how about you give me your Kirlia?"

“That’s simply impossible,” Xia You refused outright. “I would never use my own Pokémon as a wager.”

"Never mind then." Misa sighed with regret, but didn't dwell on it. She released her Pokémon, "Come on, Cloyster!"

A Pokémon with pointed horns, a round head with an evil smile, and protected by two shells appeared before Xia You.

Pokémon Pokédex entry: "Ding, Cloyster, a Water/Ice type Pokémon, the evolved form of Shellder. It has a hard shell that can withstand tremendous damage. It uses its shell to protect itself while launching spikes to repel enemies. Once it closes its shell completely, no matter how strong it is, it cannot be opened."

Since Xia You didn't have a type disadvantage against Cloyster, she didn't plan to change her Pokémon.

"Go, Kirlia, use psychic powers!"

Kirlia made the first move, using her psychic powers to attack Cloyster. However, just as she enveloped it, Cloyster completely closed its shell.

Unlike the well-rounded Golem, which is good at both offense and defense, Cloyster focuses more on defense. It will wait quietly until the moment its opponent relaxes before launching a fatal attack!

Misa laughed, "Come on, let's see how you break through my defenses!"

Kirlia swung its arm and slammed it into the ground. With a loud 'bang,' the shell of Cloyster remained intact.

Moreover, because it is a double-layered shell, it can even reduce the damage from the vibration inside when it hits the ground!

Xia You frowned slightly: "Use Magic Leaf!"

Magic leaves coalesced again around Kirlia, spinning and scraping towards Cloyster, but these attacks still had little effect on its shell.

"Now's the time!" As the Magic Leaf spell ended and Kirlia's attack paused, Misa's eyes lit up, and she shouted, "Clampagne, use Aurora Beam!"

The shell of Cloyster suddenly opened, and a beam of icy light, radiating cold energy, shot out and towards Kirlia.

Kirlia was already prepared for its attack, and upon seeing this, she used Teleport to hide in another place.

Seeing that its first attack had failed, the Spiny Clam closed its shell again.

"They're really troublesome..."

The situation reached a stalemate for a moment, and Xia You frowned as she pondered a solution.

Meanwhile, the biker gang members didn't forget to loudly mock them.

"How about that? You're completely helpless against Sister Misa's spiky shells, aren't you!"

Chapter 97 Gardevoir

It was a near-perfect defense, leaving no room for error.

At this point, the spiny clam is like a can of meat that's hard to open, and without the right tools, how to open it has become the biggest problem.

As Xia You was pondering, she inadvertently noticed that among the biker gang, there was a young man with a golden chain around his waist that swayed gently with his movements.
