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

If Yang Xiying wants to inflict irreparable damage on her Pokémon in one turn, then she might have to switch Pokémon next...!

So what Pokémon will it replace...? Crobat? Tentacruel, or some other Pokémon with high offensive capabilities?

"Picosie! Stealth Rock!" Feeling that Yang Xiying had many options, Nanami couldn't make up her mind for a moment, so she simply chose Stealth Rock.

—This battle will be long, we must find an opportunity to throw this thing down!

"Slowpoke! Teleport!" From the moment she started calling Slowpoke to use Future Sight, Yang Xiying ignored her opponent's Invisibility Rock.

So now we can just teleport and run the pigeon route instantly.

Because this move has a priority of -6, it allows the new Pokémon to enter the battle without taking damage. Yang Xiying switched out Azure Blade Ghost!

However, it was not harmed by the stealth rock because it carried thick-soled boots that were immune to spikes!

While Nanami's lineup boasts decent defensive capabilities, its offensive capabilities aren't particularly high, so Azure Blade Demon can equip other items.

Seeing the Azure Flame Blade Demon like this, Nanami sensed something was wrong, because this Pokémon could do a lot in front of Clefairy!

"Azure Flame Blade Demon! Bodybuilding!" Looking at Piccolo, Yang Xiying did not hesitate to have Azure Flame Blade Demon do bodybuilding!

After all, he had explored this guy's skills to a near-complete extent, and there was nothing that could interfere with or threaten him, so he decided to strengthen his team by building up his strength!

Even if the opponent switches Pokémon, it will be too late, since the Stealth Rock on the field and the Future Seer that will come this turn are not to be underestimated.

—Enough to reach the Azure Flame Blade Demon Slash threshold for a bodybuilding session!

"Picosie! Come back!"

Like now, Blaze uses Bulk Up to increase Attack and Defense by 1, so no matter how strong your Pokémon's durability is, it's useless...!

So Nanami chose to switch, sending out an extremely elegant snake-shaped Pokémon with long eyebrows that resembled tentacles.

It has red organs on both sides of its head that look like ribbons, a cream-colored body, and a tail covered with colorful scales.

This is Milotic, which emerges from the bottom of the lake when people start fighting, healing their restless hearts and calming the fighting!

It can be used to deal with Blaze, and it's the only Pokémon she can use to deal with it right now, so even if she's down to 70% health after being attacked by Stealth Rock and Future Sight, she still has to use it!

"Meenas, water cannon!"

"Blue flame blade ghost! Spiritual show!"

Upon seeing Milotic, Yang Xiying immediately issued an attack order, knowing that this creature could ruin all his enhancement efforts.

However, from the moment Milotic was attacked by Future Seer and Stealth Rock, the opponent's defeat was inevitable, and Spirit Slash brought Milotic down!

—The prop it carries is a pomelo!

From this point on, Nanami had no chance to stop or turn the tide of the battle, as the Fire-Breathing Camel, which countered the Azure Flame Blade Demon, made its appearance.

However, it only had less than 50% health, so it was taken away by the spirit. Although MEGA stones are different from ordinary items, they are still items.

Next up is Chansey, which poses even less of a threat to Blastoise. Taunt it and it's half-dead, while Bulk Up and Repentance slowly wear it down.

The same applies to Piccolo.

Yang Xiying, WIN!

"Ah...is Yang Xiying really a cut above the rest?" Misty couldn't help but complain as she watched Nanami's five Pokémon lose their ability to battle.

Looking at Nanami's lineup, Xiaoxia even thought Yang Xiying had met her match, after all, Clefairy, Gillante, Camerupt, Dusknoir and Milotic are all incredibly powerful Pokémon.

But it seems Yang Xiying is still more impressive...

"After all, Nanami, as a Pokémon doctor, doesn't focus on Pokémon battles, and Yang's battle style is not something that ordinary people can learn."

Lijia smiled and said that Yang Xiying's victory in the competition was a matter of course in her eyes, since the reason was obvious.

"Yang's battle style is based on his understanding of the abilities and characteristics of many Pokémon, so he can seize opportunities to counterattack in many situations."

"—Even when facing opponents with the same fighting style."

"Speaking of which, since Nanami lost, shouldn't she also...?" At this moment, Ami couldn't help but ask, thinking of something.

"..." This also silenced Xiaoxia Naz, while Lijia watched everything with a smile. Losing to Yang Xiying, it was only natural that she had to do something.

"...So that's why Yang got involved with so many girls?"

On the battlefield, Nanami's words made Yang Xiying, who was trying to go forward to check on the other side's condition, suddenly stop and break out in a cold sweat.

"Uh, sorry."

Yang Xiying was at a loss for words, after all, she was flirting with other girls right under their noses.

"The girls who battle me in Pokémon tend to pay a higher price."

"Oh, I see. That puts my mind at ease." Nanami smiled with relief after hearing Yang Xiying's words.

"Huh???" Yang Xiying was suddenly confused about how things were going. It wouldn't be good to let her guard down at a time like this!

"After all, this does prove that you have something to hide, Yang, and the fact that you dated other girls because of this also shows that you are a responsible person."

“So I’m very relieved,” she said, putting her hands behind her back and looking at Yang Xiying with a relieved expression.

"—You are still as responsible and accountable as ever."

"Yes, really..." Yang Xiying scratched his cheek a little embarrassedly; he was just doing what was perfectly normal.

"What, you still get shy when girls compliment you?" Nanami teased.

"—But there's an even more embarrassing part coming up, isn't there?"

"..." Yang Xiying's heart raced for a moment, and then she heard Nanami turn her gaze to Rika and the others.

"—Can I borrow this child for a while this morning? Is that alright?"

“…No problem,” Xia Naz was already used to it, Ami still had no objections, and Li Jia generously offered suggestions to the other side.

"—Yang is very assertive in that area."

"...Really? Well, I'm kind of looking forward to it."

……

"...By the way, Rika, how many female friends do you have?"

"Is Xiaoxia starting to get interested in my social circle?"

Because Yang Xiying and Nanami were alone together, the other girls sitting outside started to have all sorts of wild thoughts.

Xiaoxia even asked a question that left everyone scratching their heads, which prompted Lijia to ask with a smile.

"If there are two, there will be three. The girls who got along well with you, Lijia, are already the second ones to fall into Yang Xiying's hands, right?"

Xiaoxia's expression was subtle. She pointed to Ami, who was hiding her head like an ostrich, and then pointed to Nanami, who was unconsciously making noises in the room.

If things continue like this, if Rika has a third friend, she definitely won't escape either. Wait, it seems that Naz is also an old acquaintance of Rika.

—But no matter what, the girls who are connected with Lijia can't escape Yang Xiying's clutches!

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about that, Xiaoxia. I only have a few female friends here with me."

Hearing Xiaoxia say this, Lijia couldn't help but smile. She could count her friends on one hand.

"After all, someone like me is like a caged bird; having friends is already considered lucky."

"...By the way, do you guys have any other female friends?" Lijia asked at this moment, while Xiaoxia, Naz, and Ami remained silent.

“There are no peers around me, and everyone around me treats me like a younger sister, while I focus on running the dojo,” Xiaoxia said with a subtle expression.

“Not interested,” Naz said indifferently. She wasn’t the type to make friends on her own initiative; Rika had to force herself on her.

—That's just how open-minded the young lady is.

“…I didn’t,” Ami was shy by nature and naturally didn’t dare to take the initiative to talk to others, so she only had one friend, Lijia.

"Lijia, you're not saying this because you want to use us as a medium to find more women for Yang Xiying, are you?" Xiaoxia suddenly asked, as if something had occurred to her.

“After all, people who have connections with you must be of high status. If Yang Jun is with them… then our network will be even wider.”

“We will be able to build our own group by then, as I mentioned before,” Rika said with a smile.

"Moreover, since we are acquaintances, even if we become harem members, there will be less scheming and more harmony between us."

“It seems that’s true,” Xiaoxia sighed, pursing her lips. She was also worried that Yang Xiying had forgotten her old love because she had a new one.

Although this person is very responsible and wouldn't do that kind of thing, it wouldn't be good if the new woman is difficult to get along with.

—Once this harem grows large, anything can happen…

"...But it seems we can't stop him in this regard, since girls who battle him in Pokémon usually do this, right?"

“That’s true, but it’s not like we can’t do anything here,” Rika said again with a smile.

"After all, the person who became acquainted with us was Yang Xiying, who was responsible for our lives simply because she won a Pokémon battle."

“…This guy is really good at managing interpersonal relationships,” Xiaoxia responded, and Naz agreed.

After all, when that person talked about other girls, he only spoke of their good points, which clearly showed that he hoped he could accept them.

"So we just need to help him share the burden in this area, and girls should also be more generous when dealing with their loved ones."

Lijia spoke with a smile.

wow——

While the girls were chatting, the door to the room opened, and Yang Xiying, who was dressed, came out.

"Oh dear, Mr. Yang, you've worked hard. I'll make you some tea right away," Lijia said, getting up as if to say something to Yang Xiying.

"...Oh, thank you for your help. Uh, good morning, everyone," Yang Xiying couldn't help but feel guilty as she looked at the girls' somewhat meaningful expressions.

After all, I left these girls to spend time with other girls. Should I give them to them now to show that I won't mistreat anyone?

But there's more to do...

“…Hmm, good morning. You must be tired from conquering the world, my husband,” Naz replied with a playful tone, while Xia spoke up at this moment.

"You played with us until midnight last night, it's amazing you still have so much energy. By the way, did you manage to win over that lady?"

“…Of course,” Yang Xiying said after a moment of silence. To be honest, he felt a lot of pressure doing that kind of thing with Nanami.

After all, a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow. Although Nanami is beautiful, I hadn't fallen so completely when I met her.

So he had no intention of engaging in Pokémon battles with him, and he had no reason to do so either, so their relationship remained the same as that of ordinary friends.

She even treats him like an older sister.

But the relationship suddenly developed into this kind of one, which is quite complicated. Most importantly, she is the older sister of my good brother Qinglu!

—But it's still better than the rude King Lian marrying his best friend's daughter...

In short, Nanami doesn't mind this kind of thing, because it's a reasonable compensation to pay for losing a Pokémon battle.

Therefore, one should not take responsibility for it, as it would only add to one's burden, and it is unreasonable to take responsibility for her because of the curse.

Well, Nanami realized that because she couldn't tell others about these things, she also understood that this was a curse.

It's normal for boys to be attracted to women, but it's not normal for someone like Yang Xiying to act on it, since there's no precedent for it.

So it's a curse!

Therefore, Yang Xiying, such a gentle girl, would never let him fall into the hands of others, and made this compromise after repeated insistence.

If you still have feelings for her after you turn thirty, and she is still single, then you can officially establish a romantic relationship.

So you need to wait a while, and during that time it can be quite stressful to establish formal relationships with too many girls.

Therefore, Yang Xiying still needs to gain a strong status and reputation in this world. This is what he was invited to by his father-in-law at noon today.

Yang Xiying must produce outstanding results at this Quartz Conference and earn a reputation that matches her current strength!

Therefore, Yang Xiying wanted to participate in the Quartz Conference, and for this reason, he contacted Sakaki at this time, because it was almost mid-December.

He will be running the Viridian Gym in Viridian City, which is the perfect opportunity to ride a Crobat to get the sixth Gym Badge.

“…Mr. Sakaki, this time I may have to compete with the hero you have chosen for the Indigo League championship.”

PS: Update! Damn, it's gotten so late again... Maybe I should just give up on perfect attendance...
