I caught a Pokémon

But that's not enough.

Without any hesitation, he released Milotic.

As for why it was sent out when there were other powerful Pokémon, it was naturally to make it easier for them to 'frame' the other party.

After all, this is the only Pokémon that overlaps between myself and someone else's, and only by using it can I proceed with my next steps smoothly.

As for who that "someone" is...

Hey.

With everything ready, Xia You leaped down from the fence with Milotic, appearing before the people like a hero making a grand entrance.

There was no applause, no cheers, no lights, and not even anticipation.

But his appearance quickly attracted everyone's attention.

As soon as Milotic landed, it spewed a powerful jet of water that flashed past a trainer and hit a Team Galactic member's Pokémon!

Unlike the other trainers around her, Xia You's Milotic possessed great strength, which allowed it to knock the Pokémon to the ground with a single blow.

Admittedly, this was partly due to the surprise attack, which caught the Pokémon off guard, but it also shows that Milotic is indeed very strong!

With the appearance of such a powerful Pokémon, the trainers' previous disadvantage was quickly reversed.

These people were fighting under pressure and were already struggling to keep up, but as the battle went on, they suddenly realized that their opponent had been sent flying. They were shocked to discover that a powerful Milotic had joined the fight.

Looking in the direction Milotic was, you could immediately spot the masked figure behind it...

Although the incident of Cynthia attacking Team Galactic's base caused quite a stir in Eternal City, it had only happened a few hours earlier and hadn't spread throughout the entire city. It was only circulating among trainers in a small circle. Therefore, seeing this person wearing a Gengar mask now didn't connect him with Cynthia.

They were initially startled, but then realized that he/she/it was fighting Team Galactic, and then they relaxed.

After all, compared to Team Galaxy, this figure looks much more eerie and unsettling. It's already a blessing that it's a friend rather than an enemy.

Compared to them, the people on the Galaxy team knew more.

After all, it was this very person who recently raided their Galaxy Team base, arrested their officers, and then led the police to clean up the entire building!

"Cymbidium!" Team Galactic captain gritted his teeth, "Why are you here!?"

Bamboo... Bamboo orchid!?

Xia You remained unmoved upon hearing the name, but everyone around her, except for Team Galaxy, was startled.

What did they hear?!

Why do these Team Galactic members call this figure Bamboo Orchid?!

Could it really be that Sinnoh champion?!

Otherwise, why would these people call her that?!

Unfortunately, shrouded in thick smoke and wearing a Gengar mask, no one could figure out who the figure was.

Xia You grinned from behind the mask, but made no move to speak. Instead, she increased the intensity of Milotic's attack, making it even more lethal.

They were just a dozen or so Team Galactic members, not even elites. They could swagger around in front of ordinary trainers, but they were no match for Xia You.

In just a short while, all of them had been defeated without even the slightest disturbance.

Seeing the Team Galactic members and their Pokémon lying on the ground, the surrounding trainers realized what had happened. Feeling relieved, they cheered for Xia You.

"Champion! Champion!!"

"champion!"

"champion!!"

Meanwhile, Xiaoyao and Yami, who were standing by the wall, joined in the cheering from the people around them, and Xiaoyao even whistled.

After putting her fingers down, she looked at Yami and couldn't help but chuckle softly, "To be honest, if I hadn't known beforehand that it was Brother Xia You, I wouldn't have been able to tell at all from his attire!"

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Xia You glanced around, then looked down at the captain of the Galaxy Team, and kicked the Vajra Orb in his hand toward the shattered display stand.

Wheel wheel wheel wheel...

The captain, still conscious, lay on the ground, looking at Xia You with resentment. Knowing that his mission had completely failed, he twitched his lips and said, "Zhu Lan... our Galaxy Team will never let you go..."

Hearing his weak and feeble harsh words, Xia You remained unmoved. After looking around once more, she took to the air and flew towards a curtain on the third floor, intending to disappear from there.

Just as they flew to the third floor, they encountered a woman.

She had long golden hair, a beautiful face, and a familiar black outfit—wasn't that Zhu Lan herself?

At this moment, Zhu Lan had just gone around in circles and finally found a ventilation duct. She crawled out of it and arrived at the third floor of the exhibition hall. Before she could even get close and figure out what was going on, she bumped into Xia You and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

She was thinking about how to catch that man no matter what and get to the bottom of things, but before she knew it, she had run into him.

It's true what they say, what you hope for comes true!

"you……"

But she had only just opened her mouth, only managed to utter one word, when she suddenly felt herself enveloped in thick smoke and instantly lost sight of the man in front of her!

what! ?

Startled, she quickly took a few steps, trying to grab the man, but at that moment, the smoke instantly dissipated, and when her vision returned, she saw the entire hall facing her, all calling her name.

Compared to just hearing Zhu Lan's name from Team Galaxy and not feeling much, and some even doubting Xia You's true identity, seeing Zhu Lan appear in person has completely excited them!

"Bamboo Orchid!!"

"Bamboo Orchid!"

"Bamboo Orchid!!!"

No one doubted whether it was Zhu Lan just now!

After all, it was just the time it took for a wisp of smoke to appear, only two or three seconds. Compared to Xia You concealing her figure, it looked more like Zhu Lan had removed her disguise!

For Zhu Lan, everything was completely confusing.

In the end what happened?

She was filled with doubt and confusion. When she turned back to look for Xia You's whereabouts, she found that he was nowhere to be found.

No, we can't let him get away like this!

Just as Zhu Lan was about to speak, asking everyone to help find Xia You's whereabouts and explaining that it wasn't her who had just appeared, hoping that everyone wouldn't be deceived, the blast doors around them opened, and a large number of police officers rushed to the scene.

Not only them, but even reporters and tourists who heard about the incident crowded in, and no amount of driving them away by the police could stop them.

This instantly threw the entire exhibition hall into chaos, completely drowning out Zhu Lan's voice...

Amidst the commotion, Xia You, having shed her disguise and reclaimed Milotic, returned to Xiao Yao and Ya Mi's side.

"Is that Cynthia, the Sinnoh champion?"

Xiao Yao craned her neck to look at the curtain on the third floor. Because it was far away, she couldn't see Zhu Lan's exact appearance, but even from just a silhouette, she could sense that Zhu Lan was extraordinary.

Yami had seen videos and pictures of Zhulan, so she wasn't as curious about Zhulan as Xiaoyao. She just asked in confusion, "Mr. Xia You, how did you know that Zhulan would appear there?"

This was also her biggest question.

After all, the identity swap just now was a brilliant touch, almost making her think that Xia You and Zhu Lan had planned it together.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have caused such a huge cheer!

"I don't know." But to her surprise, Xia You simply shrugged in response to her question. "I had no idea that Cyndaquil would be there. In fact, I was stunned when I saw her appear. Luckily, my Gengar reacted quickly enough and used Smoke Screen to get me away from there, otherwise we would have been exposed!"

"Huh?" Xiaoyao and Yami were both stunned. "It was all just a coincidence?!"

"Of course, although I also find it incredible, it really is a coincidence."

Thinking back now, Xia You felt a pang of regret. However, seeing Zhu Lan holding onto the railing, frowning and searching for something, she knew that Zhu Lan was probably looking for her, and she knew that this was definitely not a place to stay for long.

"Alright, let's get out of here quickly. Although we've resolved this perfectly and made her more popular, we've also left her with a lot of trouble. I don't want to be stuck here with her now."

Chapter 959 Vegetable Seeds and Sprout Rice

After resting overnight at the Pokémon Center, the three of them went to the Eternal Gym early the next morning after breakfast.

Since leaving the Baidai Museum yesterday afternoon, Zhu Lan has still not found him.

This made Xia You secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

However, despite thinking he had hidden himself well, he was unaware that although Zhu Lan hadn't discovered his true identity, his identity was already firmly established in her eyes, almost like an indelible mark. It was only a matter of time before she discovered him.

All I can say is that a woman's intuition can sometimes be truly terrifying!

The two are now just one opportunity away from meeting, and it is believed that when that moment comes, his identity will be completely exposed in front of Zhu Lan!

No one knows what awaits Xia You at that time.

But Xia You is still completely unaware of this.

After all, he never imagined that it was that fleeting glance in the celebration square that would make the other party remember him. But if he hadn't experienced it beforehand, how could he have thought of this?

Therefore, he was now focused entirely on the upcoming dojo battle.

After all, this was his third time visiting the Hyakudai Dojo.

It could be said that after traveling back and forth, he became extremely familiar with the route leading to the dojo! He even knew which fork in the road to turn at with his eyes closed!

This time, after yesterday's draw, Yami is determined to settle the score with Caizhong!

It is foreseeable that what follows will be another exciting battle!

In short, Xia You was also very much looking forward to it.

Following the original route, when the three arrived at the dojo, they saw the vegetable seed that had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

"Hello, it's nice to see you all again!"

"Hello, Miss Vegetable Seed, oh? You look to be in great spirits!"

"Of course! I went to bed early last night to prepare for today's battle!"

After spending a long time together and battling yesterday, Cai Zhong and the others were quite familiar with each other. Therefore, there wasn't much formality during their meeting. After exchanging a few pleasantries, Cai Zhong led them to the battle arena inside the dojo.

It's clear that both parties are in a hurry, and even Yami, who is usually slow-paced, has high expectations for this battle.

"Keep it up!"

Since they weren't the main characters today, when they arrived at the battlefield and saw the two girls walk to their respective trainer command areas, Xia You and Xiao Yao cheered them on before heading to the stands to watch.

Emotionally speaking, they naturally hope that Yami can win this battle.

But in terms of how exciting it will be, the two also want to see how the two women, who tied yesterday, can perform today.

In fact, it wasn't just him; even Cai Zhong and Ya Mi themselves wanted to see who among them would have the last laugh.

This also meant that the two didn't have much interaction. Once Eiko was in place and the competition rules were announced according to procedure, their second dojo match officially began!

With two flashes of blue light, Cai Zhong and Ya Mi simultaneously released their Pokémon.

Because of their encounter yesterday, the two had no chance to test each other and instead felt a sense of mutual respect. Therefore, the first Pokémon they released was their absolute main force!

The Pokémon that Cai Zhong sent out was her Roserade, which was in the second round of yesterday's battle against Xia You. Unexpectedly, she sent it out in the first round, which shows how serious Cai Zhong is about today's battle.

In contrast to her, Yami also sent out a Wobbuffet.

This surprised Xia You; she hadn't expected that Yami would have such a Pokémon.

To be honest, Xia You didn't know much about Sparrow. He hadn't delved into its fighting style or the different types of Pokémon, so he naturally didn't know what Sparrow possessed.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, Wobbuffet and Chansey both look a bit silly, which fits Mimi's personality, and they're probably the type she likes.

It's true that a trainer's style determines the Pokémon they catch.

But then again, Roserade versus Wobbuffet...

In terms of attributes, Wobbuffet undoubtedly has a slight advantage, and coupled with Wobbuffet's ability to reflect damage, it seems to have a better chance of winning.

But then, thinking about Yami's personality, and knowing that Weng also lacked the ability to take the initiative, Xia You felt that everything was full of unknowns and suspense.

In short, there's no point in guessing; let's just wait and see.

At this moment, with Eiko's command, the battle began, with Roseradore launching the first attack.

Just as expected, Wobbuffet doesn't have any offensive capabilities, which means it can only rely on moves like Safeguard, Double Up, and Mirror Image to counter Roserade's attacks.
