I caught a Pokémon

Naturally, it's because the two of them are now Xia You's companions, so no matter what difficulties and challenges Xia You faces, they will always stand firmly by his side!

Regardless of who is right or wrong, even if it were Xia You's fault, given their current relationship with him, they wouldn't go against him!

Any issues can be resolved privately among the group, but we would never undermine Xia You in front of outsiders!

So even though they were very worried about Xia You, they remained silent.

Seeing that Denji was ready to fight, Xia You stopped talking nonsense with him. Without him making any move, the next second, he and several Pokémon disappeared into thin air!

The others were all taken aback, then suddenly sensed something and turned to look out the window.

Only then did they realize that Xia You had somehow arrived high in the sky and was standing on Charizard with Gardevoir!

And the Gengar was floating beside him!

Without a word, Xia You simply glanced at Dianci, and then Charizard flew downwards, carrying him to the ground.

Denji originally wanted to take Xia You to the inner battlefield of the seaside tower, but seeing that the man had already gone outside, he could only leave the seaside tower with him.

However, he didn't have a Pokémon like Xia You's that could take him directly to the window and land safely, so he had to take the elevator down to the first floor first.

Just by comparing them, his appearance paled in comparison.

But Dian Ci assumed the other party was trying to take the initiative and ignored it.

Seeing him enter the elevator, Ami, Xiaoyao, and Yami quickly followed. Once everyone was in the elevator, the doors closed and the elevator descended rapidly.

While waiting for the elevator to descend, the atmosphere inside became somewhat awkward.

Xiaoyao and Yami didn't speak or look at the elevator; they just kept looking at the scenery outside through the glass wall of the elevator.

Ami hesitated for a moment before saying, but seeing her expression, Dianci hesitated again before saying, "You don't need to worry about this. Although he's someone you brought, I will definitely not let him go this time!"

It turns out that Dianci had always thought that Ami was worried that he would hurt Xia You!

Hearing him say that, Ami's face became even more conflicted.

She was certainly not worried about Xia You.

After all, she knew Xia You's strength because she had fought against him. Not to mention that Xia You's victory in the Silver Tournament had spread throughout the capital. Now, after such a long period of travel and training, he must have become even stronger!

What she was really worried about was the electricity!

To be honest, she hadn't known Dianci for long, and their relationship wasn't deep, just like her relationship with Xia You.

But since they were both gym leaders, and I had talked with Denji for a while before, I still had a good impression of him, and I couldn't bear to see him really end up closing down his gym.

but now……

Especially in front of Xiaoyao and Yami, she couldn't say anything.

Ugh……

Mr. Xia You…

I hope you understand!

Not long after they got off the elevator and left the seaside tower, they arrived at an open space on the side and saw Xia You standing in the distance, waiting for them with ease.

Beside him, the three Pokémon stood quietly. Even without looking, Denji could feel that their gazes were all focused on him.

For some reason, Denji suddenly felt immense pressure.

What's going on here?

Why do I have this feeling?

Denji seemed quite unfamiliar with this feeling, which he hadn't experienced in many years.

In a daze, he couldn't help but recall his childhood, when he had just become a trainer and had only been traveling for a short time when he met his first gym leader.

He no longer remembered the name and appearance of the curator, but he did remember that he felt that pressure from him back then!

As expected, he suffered a crushing defeat in that dojo battle!

He frowned, trying to suppress the feeling in his mind. While maintaining a composed expression, he couldn't help but feel a little amused inside.

Why did you suddenly think of that time?

I'm not a rookie trainer anymore!

On the contrary, I have become the strongest Gym Leader in Sinnoh, a figure that makes others feel helpless and pressured!

Standing on the other side of the open space, Denji also took out three Poké Balls from his waist bag.

"This is really interesting. Since I became the gym leader, I have always been the first to release the Pokémon, giving the challenger ample time to prepare. I didn't expect it to be the other way around today. I have to say, you dare to do this in front of me. You are really bold."

Normally, Denji wouldn't say such things, but the man opposite him had clearly enraged him, which is why his tone unconsciously became sharper.

But Xia You didn't respond to that at all.

He's already said everything he needed to say, so why waste time on unnecessary talk? Let's just get straight to the fight.

After all, no matter how much is said, the final result will be proven in action!

Xia You looked at him coldly: "Don't waste my time. Now quickly choose one of these three Pokémon as your opponent, or... you can fight them all."

Now that things had come to this, Denji knew that the best way to teach this arrogant man a lesson was to defeat him with Pokémon. So he stopped talking and glanced at Xia You's three Pokémon once more.

As the proud strongest Gym Leader in Sinnoh, Denji disdained to actually make a choice, so he casually pointed at Gengar.

Gengar grinned.

"Me? You really have good taste!"

The fact that Gengar could talk surprised Denji, but now was not the time to be surprised. With a flick of his Poké Ball, a Jolteon appeared in the open space with a flash of blue light!

Reibu?

Upon seeing this Pokémon, both Xia You and Gengar displayed strange smiles.

This also made Dianci very strange.

What are they laughing at?

Actually, not only Denji didn't understand, but even May didn't know that among Xia You's first few Pokémon, if we were to say which Pokémon Gengar knew Xia You the most about, it would definitely not be his starter Pokémon Gardevoir, nor the incredibly powerful Charizard, but rather Xia You's Jolteon!

As a Jolteon that has accompanied Xia You in battles in Kanto and Johto for a long time, Gengar has played with his Jolteon quite a bit due to its personality and has witnessed many of its battles!

This also gives it considerable knowledge about Pokémon like Jolteon.

It's fair to say that sending Jolteon to fight Gengar was rather unlucky for Denji.

Of course, even if you don't know Jolteon, it doesn't really matter if you don't know Gengar.

It's just a gym leader's main Pokémon, what's so special about it?

As it thought this, it turned its head and glanced at its trainer.

Xia You returned its gaze.

The long-standing tacit understanding allowed Gengar to know Xia You's thoughts perfectly; just by looking into his eyes, it knew what to do.

Gengar gave Xia You a look and walked forward to the center of the arena.

At the same time, the Jolteon also came to its front. The two Pokémon faced each other at a distance of seven or eight meters. This distance was neither too far nor too close. Although a battle was about to break out, their states were completely different.

Sensing its trainer's anger, Jolteon became extremely serious as well. It lowered its body, poised to strike, as if it would turn its opponent to ashes at the first command!

Compared to it, Gengar's playful and carefree demeanor is undoubtedly much more irresponsible.

This made Dianci scoff inwardly.

It's true that like trainer, like Pokémon!

That man spouted nonsense, yet his Pokémon was equally unserious. This attitude alone shows just how unprofessional this duo is!

I was so careful in treating him; now that I think about it, it's ridiculous.

Despite thinking this, Denji didn't relax and instead glanced at Ami.

Ami understood his meaning and knew that he wanted her to give the order to begin. She sighed softly and then walked over and raised her arm.

Chapter 1009 Instant Kill!

However, before swinging her arm down, Ami thought for a moment and said one more thing.

"I hope you can stop this fight when it's over."

Her intention was to prevent the two of them from escalating the situation, since it wasn't an irreconcilable conflict. However, as soon as she spoke, no one paid any attention to her words, and she knew she had wasted her breath.

With a sigh, she said no more, but simply waved her hand, signaling the start of the battle.

Just as her hand fell, under Denji's command, the Jolteon opened its mouth and actually condensed a Shadow Ball, which it then spat towards Gengar!

I never expected this Jolteon could use Shadow Ball.

Xia You was somewhat surprised by this move.

After all, it's a bit surprising that an Electric-type Pokémon isn't studying Electric-type moves but instead is making dumplings.

However, this also shows that this Jolteon must be a seasoned veteran, knowing that its Electric-type attacks alone have limited coverage and cannot handle all situations. That's why it took a different approach and learned a Ghost-type move.

Now it seems that this Shadow Ball move came in handy when dealing with a Ghost-type Pokémon!

Of course, this move would be effective against other Ghost-type Pokémon, but against Xia You's Gengar...

It's not that hitting it won't hurt; the most important thing is that you have to be able to hit it!

Even though the opponent was right there, the moment the Shadow Ball was fired, the Gengar vanished!

what! ?

Not only was Reibu surprised, but Denji and Ami also raised their eyebrows at the same time!

Where's Gengar?

Where did they go?

Could it teleport?!

However, compared to Amiya, Denji truly deserves the title of Sinnoh's strongest Gym Leader. Putting aside his mentality, his eyesight alone is indeed very strong!

He simply glanced at the ground and saw a shadow sweeping towards Rayleigh at an incredible speed across the low grass!

"Watch out! It's underground!"

Reminded by him, Ray looked down and naturally noticed the shadow on the ground.

However, from the moment it noticed the sound, to the moment it spoke, and then to Jolteon hearing the sound and finally reacting, the time was far too long, especially in such a battle, to the point that Gengar was already at its feet before it took any action.

A fierce bolt of lightning shot towards the shadow, but the next second, the current missed its target and did not strike anything.

At the same time, Raibou sensed something and turned around to look behind it, only to see Gengar somehow running up behind it again, facing it, and raising its right arm!

A dark purple energy ball, several times larger than the Shadow Ball Jolteon had just used, instantly formed in Gengar's hand!

Just by looking at its size and the energy it contains, one can immediately tell just how terrifying the energy here is compared to the Shadow Sphere from before!

In the blink of an eye, Jolteon, as expected of the Electric Pokémon, reacted quickly and tried to use Quick Attack to escape.

But at that very moment, a strange purple light suddenly flashed in Gengar's eyes!

Stared at by those eyes, Ray's head suddenly went blank, and his foot, which was about to move, stopped at this crucial moment.

This is extremely deadly!

And in that brief pause, Gengar's attack landed on it!

Hang in there!!!

Although they had only just begun fighting, Denji knew the situation was extremely critical and couldn't help but shout.

But some things are beyond his control.

Under his watchful gaze, before he could even blink, Gengar's enormous Shadow Ball struck Jolteon squarely in the face with a 'bang'!

Rayquaza didn't even have time to scream before he was sent flying several distances by an explosion, crashing right in front of Denji.

Dianci quickly looked down to check its condition, only to find that its body was covered in black soot and its eyes were rolling upwards, clearly indicating that it had lost consciousness!

what! ?

How is that possible?!

Denji never dreamed that his Jolteon would be instantly defeated by the opponent!
