I beg you female trainers to give me money even if you lose!

Yang Xiying stepped forward at this moment and slowly introduced herself to this man who had a very American style.

"Oh? You want to challenge the Vermilion Gym? You know the rules there."

Hearing Yang Xiying say this, Ma Zhishi also waved his hand, beckoning to the middle-aged man with white hair and bronze skin beside him.

Yes, he's the dojo receptionist, but I don't know what kind of relationship he has with the receptionists at other dojos.

"This trainer doesn't look like a beginner, so you should know that you need to pass the Level 1 Gym Trial to get the badge."

"If you want to obtain more skill learning devices and more combat points, you can also try to challenge the level two and level three trials."

"First, let me explain the Level 1 Trial of our Vermilion Gym," he said, taking out a tablet that displayed the layout of the gym rooms.

At the far end of the room was where the gym leader sat, but five wide electric currents blocked his way.

There were a lot of trash cans placed in front of them; these were the key to stopping the five currents!

There are switches inside, but there is only one at first. Pressing one switch will activate the other switch, but this activation will cause noise.

So what the trainer has to do is sense the direction of movement and find the switch until all the current is turned off.

In addition, several gym leader trainers will make noise to stop you along the way, so you'll need to use Pokémon battles to shut them up.

—This is the Level 1 Gym Trial of the Leaf Gym! Break the Formation!

PS: Update!

NO.237+238 Today I'm also a pioneer (referring to rummaging through the trash can)...

"Oh, Uncle Lt. Surge's Level 1 Gym Trial is still so much fun."

"Haha, Girl, your gym's Level 1 trial also has a Flying-like feel to it."

Listening to the middle-aged man with white hair and bronze skin introduce the content of the Level 1 trial, Feng Lu couldn't help but show a look of amazement.

Ma Zhishi responded readily with a round of mutual flattery, which made Yang Xiying, who was listening nearby, twitch her eye.

The two gym leaders, both facing challenging levels, are now showing a mutual respect...

For him, both the challenges at Lt. Surge Gym and the challenges at Wind Dew Gym were incredibly difficult to overcome.

The first one is Lt. Surge's method of searching through the trash can for the switch. In the Pokémon games, you can't see with your eyes whether there's a switch hidden inside the trash can.

So after finding the first switch, the rest of the switches are guessed, and from this point on, you can't guess wrong, or you'll have to start over.

In reality, although one can determine location by sound, it still requires finding five switches and battling other gym trainers.

It's just as troublesome. Then there's the Blow Gym level. There are two versions of this thing. The first version is the Human Cannon.

Trainers need to use a special device to fly into the sky and reach a difficult area until they arrive in front of the gym leader.

It doesn't sound as complicated as the Fallen Leaf Gym, but this special device forces people to fly more than ten meters!

Sometimes you'll even run headfirst into the wall, so it really tests your physical fitness, though this is considered relatively good.

The second version of the Blow Gym level is truly overpowered, requiring players to brave the strong winds to reach the Gym Leader.

"The Level 1 trial is like this. Of course, if you have obtained more than three gym badges, you can choose to skip it."

At this moment, the bronze-skinned man spoke again, and then Ma Zhishi and Feng Lu both turned their attention to Yang Xiying.

"But if you lose the match, you'll have to start from the Level 1 Gym Trial. Only after passing it can you continue to challenge Level 2."

"No need. During the trial, we'll be battling trainers, which will be a good opportunity to see what Pokémon the trainers in the gym have."

Yang Xiying shook her head.

"This will also provide a reference for dealing with the lineup of gym leaders."

"Wow, BOY is very confident," Ma Zhishi couldn't help but show an appreciative expression upon hearing Yang Xiying's words.

His gym challenges still have quite a few complaints, to the point that many people only challenge Vermilion Gym after obtaining three badges.

However, very few trainers who skip levels and go straight to level two actually get badges, because level one is only good for clearing stages.

There's also battling Gym Leaders. Although Gym Leaders won't use powerful Pokémon, it still lets the Gym Leaders understand the team's lineup.

—Know the basics about Electric-type Pokémon!

Therefore, although he prefers the reason that 'he is taking on the Level 1 Gym Trial because he wants to challenge the level he has carefully designed.'

But he can accept what the other party says, and since they've said that, it means they're very confident they can break through his barrier.

"In that case, I'll wait for you over there," he thought, and he was actually looking forward to fighting him.

"Mr. Yang, keep it up! And Uncle Maszell, may I watch from the sidelines?"

Feng Lu also encouraged Yang Xiying, then looked at Ma Zhishi, who gave her a thumbs up.

"Although ME's gym battles are not open to the public, it's no problem if it's Wind and Dew Girl."

"Thank you so much!"

Yang Xiying, Feng Lu, and Ma Zhishi separated. Guided by the white-haired, bronze-skinned man, Yang Xiying arrived at the gym checkpoint.

The spacious room was filled with numerous trash cans, and at the very front was a large door formed by five electric currents blocking the way.

Lt. Surge is among them! To get there, you have to flip the switch on this trash can, but the trainers who are already prepared around won't let you touch the trash can easily.

Their eyes were all on Yang Xiying, because if they wanted to rummage through the trash cans without any problems, they would have to get past them first.

Om-! ! !

However, just when they thought Yang Xiying was about to declare war on them, all the electric gates blocking Ma Zhishi's way were deactivated!

? !

Both Lt. Surge and the waiting gym leaders were completely dumbfounded. How could the Electric Gate have been opened like that?!

"There's...a malfunction?!"

"No, I definitely heard the sound of the trash can switch being pressed repeatedly!"

"Wait! Look at that challenger!"

There was a commotion inside the venue, but they quickly noticed something unusual: Yang Xiying was standing still, his whole body radiating blue flames.

The flames rippled and spread outwards!

"This is... that woman's superpower at the Saffron City Saffron Gym?!" Lt. Surge's face showed utter astonishment.

He had only ever seen Yang Xiying in this state with one other person! That was Sabrina, the gym leader of the Goldenrod Gym in the north!

—This person is actually a superhuman! He used his superpowers to overcome his own obstacles!

"Wow...that's amazing, Mr. Yang," Feng Lu said with a surprised expression as she watched the arena from the viewing platform through the glass wall.

She had only ever seen this state on Cattleya, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Unova Regional Alliance...!

“Mr. Ma Xueshi, the method to solve the level does not restrict the use of superpowers, does it?” Yang Xiying spoke up at this moment.

“Oh, you really are a surprise guy,” Lt. Surge said, sounding a little embarrassed.

It's a bit frustrating to have your own designed level cracked like that, but that also shows the strength of the other side!

For him, a Pokémon Trainer cannot simply focus on ordinary Pokémon battles.

You also need to improve your own strength in order to survive on the battlefield. Lt. Surge was once a soldier who fought alongside Pokémon!

—So it's also possible to find the switch by using the power of Pokémon.

"Of course, the battles will continue. Everyone, would you like to spar with me?" Yang Xiying smiled slightly as she looked at the gym leaders around her.

They're both men, and he doesn't mind fighting them.

"..." The group of gym trainers were all sweating profusely. This guy... he must be here to challenge the gym!

"I'll trouble you to deal with him," Yang Xiying said, adding that Ma Zhishi was also under pressure from using his superpowers to solve the puzzle.

So I also wanted to see what kind of setup the other side had.

"Let me do it first. You've really surprised us, young man, but individual strength still needs to be distinguished from Pokémon."

The first to take the stage was a middle-aged man in a suit wearing a wide-brimmed hat. His manners were impeccable, clearly those of a Western gentleman.

“Then please enlighten me,” Yang Xiying said, taking out her trainer card and then overlapping it with the trainer card opposite her.

"Please, Pikachu!"

"Go! Forsaken Monkey!"

When both sides sent out their first Pokémon, the group sweated even more because Yang Xiying's Forsaken was over level 50!

The Pikachu sent out by the old gentleman was only level 20, and this level difference cannot be made up for by skill!

So Pikachu's Fake Out + Super Special Attack strategy failed; even the Fake Out didn't hit the opponent!

—Because the Pokémon I've never seen before on the other side is actually a Ghost-type!

"What kind of Pokémon is this that looks like a Primeape?!"

"It even has a high-level ground-attribute move like Earthquake!"

Facing the Forsaken Monkey, they could only retreat. Not only was the opponent a higher level, but it also had Ground-type moves that were super effective against Electric-type moves!

—The Vermilion Gym is undoubtedly an Electric-type Gym!

"Next, Mr. Lt. Surge will have a Pokémon battle with me," Yang Xiying said as she defeated all the Gym Leaders and walked up to Lt. Surge.

"Ah...ah," Ma Zhishi was also surprised to see Yang Xiying's unparalleled performance. He had never seen such a scene before!

And there's this intimidating vibe from the other side, but I haven't offended him, have I? Who... who is he trying to intimidate?

"I understand, but the next battle is a master duel, so just overwhelming the opponent with your level won't work."

Mascherano was not going to back down either. He started by making some tough remarks to boost morale, and the stronger the opponent was, the more it met his expectations.

“I understand that, so let’s begin, Level 2 Gym Trial,” Yang Xiying said, showing off her Trainer Card.

"Hey!" Lt. Surge grinned, revealing his Trainer Card and then overlapping it, thus beginning a 3-on-3 Master Duel at level 30!

With Feng Lu and the other gym leader watching, both sides began to configure their Pokémon, and then, under the declaration of the stick figure in the pink suit—

"Go! Pitworm!"

"It's up to you, Foretas!"

Both sides sent out their first Pokémon at this moment, with Lt. Surge sending out a stag beetle that kept flapping its wings.

Its carapace is blue, and its two large jaws, as long as its body, are serrated with yellow edges, giving it a majestic appearance.

"Oh, an Alola Pokémon?" Yang Xiying raised an eyebrow as she looked at the Pokémon. The Pokémon in front of her was called Vikadounon.

—It is a Pokémon found only in the Alola region.

"Haha, Boy, you have good taste," Lt. Surge said cheerfully. This was an Electric-type Pokémon he got while vacationing in Alola.

"I was thinking that if you used a Pokémon you'd never seen before to battle, I would use a Pokémon I'd never seen before to battle back, but I didn't expect you to know them."

I learned from the battles of my subordinate gym trainers that the opponent's Pokémon was actually the evolved form of Primeape, with the addition of the Fighting type and Ghost!

This combination of attributes was unheard of, so much so that he was not easy to deal with for a while, so he used the element that countered the opponent.

But upon closer reflection, it makes sense. Ghost-types are not immune to Flying and Psychic types, but using the latter feels like a sore loser.

For a level 30 Master Battle, you should use Pokémon that are not far from that level, so he used Vikadounon, which he hadn't raised for very long.

Although this Pokémon is not a Flying-type Pokémon immune to Ground-type moves, it does know Flying-type moves and has the Levitate ability.

It can directly resist Ground-type attacks, and its skill pool can also counter Ground-type attacks that are super effective against Electric-type attacks, making it capable of defending against everything.

However, the opponent's Pokémon was neither Forsaken nor a Ground-type Pokémon; instead, it was a Pokémon as solid as a rock.

"...So you're planning to use the Vikanon Bug to target my Abandoned Monkey?" Yang Xiying asked, as he knew a little about the Vikanon Bug.

Using a Ground-type Pokémon to fight it would be a bit of a loss, and its move pool also includes Flying-type moves.

"Well, that's about right," Ma Zhishi said, looking a little embarrassed, but his competitive spirit was rising as he watched Yang Xiying's performance.
