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

"Eh...? Mr. Shuichi, where is everyone else? Have they gone home?"

Back at the Pokémon Ranger Base's office area, they found only a black-haired, bespectacled young man in a police uniform.

This place is both the base for Pokémon Rangers and the Pallet Town Police Station; yes, they share the same building.

After all, the combined number of people on both sides is less than twenty, so building another structure would be a waste. Since it's all about maintaining order, it doesn't matter.

But Yang Xiying didn't see a single Pokémon Ranger; only Mr. Shuichi from the police side was organizing documents.

This is a bit strange, because even if the Pokémon Rangers aren't on duty, they still need to be on standby at this base, and at least one person needs to be on guard.

—But now there's nothing at all.

“No, they’re all in the backyard now. You can go and see them,” Shuichi replied, shaking his head with a hint of regret in his voice.

"I have to wait here because I lost a game of rock-paper-scissors."

"So what kind of performance is happening in the backyard that you even want to see?" Yang Xiying replied with a subtle expression.

“Your new ranger is very skilled, especially in Pokémon battles,” Shuichi replied directly.

"And it also carries Pokémon that are only found in the Kalos region, which are all very rare to us."

"I see," Yang Xiying nodded subconsciously. He was curious to see Pokémon that only existed in the Kalos region.

"Then I'll go take a look too."

Yang Xiying walked directly to the backyard of the patrol and police base, leaving Xiu Yi speechless and sighing.

"At least play rock-paper-scissors with me..."

"Flash Charge—!!!"

When Yang Xiying arrived at the backyard, she discovered a spatial distortion, which was clearly an alternate dimension created by the trainer cards.

Upon closer inspection, the space seemed to distort, and Yang Xiying suddenly found herself in the spacious stadium stands.

This was exactly the same arena where he had fought against Crimson and Green before, and about seven or eight patrol colleagues were gathered not far in front of him.

Before I could even go over and greet them, I heard a dashing command. Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw two trainers facing off.

They all wore the distinctive red uniforms of rangers, with subtle variations depending on gender.

Yes, the two trainers are male and female. The male trainer is a young man in his thirties or forties with an average appearance.

The woman has long, slightly blonde hair that flows in the wind, and she has a beautiful face with delicate features, giving her a rather heroic air.

Add to that her pair of Poké Balls filled with tiny milk cups and her perfect leg shape, and she really gives off a majestic older sister vibe.

And she was indeed majestic, commanding a large, red, falcon-like bird, though "red" wasn't quite accurate; only its crest and back were red.

Its abdomen is mainly grayish-white, the feathers around its eyes are black, its eye shadow is yellow, and its tail feathers are very long and beautiful.

Then this guy crashed into the opposing trainer's cat-type Pokémon, Persian, like an air-dropped missile.

The giant bird, engulfed in flames, sent the big cat flying. While not the most effective move, it still managed to knock the cat boss into a state of near-burning incense!

"Boss Cat is incapacitated!"

At this moment, the stick figure in the suit standing in the center of the arena delivered his verdict on the fallen cat boss and his trainer.

"Mito has no more Pokémon to continue the battle, so the winner is Rita from the Kalos region!"

PS: Let's make an appearance of the trashy Wings first.

PS: Because I work the night shift, I sleep from 1 a.m. to around 7 a.m., and I can only write around 11 p.m.

Therefore, the remaining 4,000 words will be updated in the middle of the night. Sorry.

Ranger NO.53 Carlos challenges you!

"Hmph hmph hmph hmphh ...

As the matchstick figure in the suit read the announcement, it caused the male contestants to wail in pain and the onlookers to gasp in amazement!

"Holy crap! Jun! This newbie is amazing! If he beats Mito, we'll all be wiped out!"

"Are all the Pokémon from Kalos monsters?! That Moltres is way too fast! Even Mito's Persian can't keep up!"

"Yeah, I had Pidgeot use Quick Attack before, but how come it still couldn't beat the Brave Bird's Fierce Attack?!"

"What a fake Pokémon! Brave Bird's Attack is faster than Quick Attack! Is it carrying some kind of item or ability?!"

"-2000, my allowance for this month is less than a third of what it used to be..."

"But having new recruits like this on our patrols will make things much easier."

“…I lost. As a price, here is two thousand yen, please accept it.” The passerby, Mito, stepped forward and took out a few banknotes.

This posture, combined with the cheers from those around him, gave off a feeling of losing money while playing mahjong...

"Hey, so you're saying the seniors acknowledge my abilities?" Rita, the foreign woman from Carlos, didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the money directly.

It's only natural to pay a price for losing a Pokémon battle; if you're afraid of paying compensation, then just keep winning.

“If we, the defeated opponents, still refuse to acknowledge this, we're just being stubborn. Besides, the information sent from above has revealed your resume.”

A dignified-looking middle-aged man in the center of the patrol team spoke up, while also revealing a rather amiable smile.

"At such a young age, he has done a very good job as a ranger, no less than the two kids who stayed in town before."

"Oh?" Rita raised an eyebrow as she heard the middle-aged man speak. "I did hear before that your team has two genius teenagers."

He was able to train his Pokémon to be incredibly powerful even in his teens, but his youth also caused ecological disruption around Pallet Town.

The Pokémon roaming this area have risen to an uncontrollable level, but they are truly geniuses to have turned Route 1 into this state.

So talented that he could even redeem himself by serving as a temporary Pokémon Ranger, since no one else was assigned to guard Route 1.

The rangers can usually be replaced when they're away on official business, but they've recently turned sixteen and their ambitions no longer lie in maintaining the Pokémon ecosystem...

Therefore, they also sent themselves to Pallet Town to assist the local rangers, although the other rangers can do the job well now without the two of them.

But it's safer to come by myself, and there was previous intelligence that Team Rocket had been spotted on Route 1, although in small numbers...

However, the presence of rocket units with this configuration in various areas of the Kanto region clearly indicates that they are there to survey the terrain and gather intelligence on enemy positions...

This will make poaching activities much easier.

Then, she also wanted to meet those two genius boys, have a Pokémon contest, and see who was stronger.

but……

"If you had come a month earlier, you might have been able to meet them," the middle-aged man said with a smile.

"That is indeed a bit of a shame."

Rita could only offer a helpless smile, as the unexpected situation delayed her permanent stay in Pallet Town by a month.

“However, I’ve heard that someone has taken over the responsibilities of those two genius teenagers to help you,” she said, then changed the subject.

"Could it be this handsome young man who suddenly appeared?" She noticed Yang Xiying, who had already blended into the group of patrolmen.

"Hey? Yang, you're back?"

Upon hearing the newcomer's words, the group of people instinctively turned their gazes and discovered a familiar figure right beside them.

"Hey! You should at least say hello before you come over. Are you trying to scare us to death by approaching us silently?" This startled them as well.

"I'm just watching you guys fight. It wouldn't be right to disturb you," Yang Xiying replied with a smile, while some patrolmen asked instinctively.

"—How long have you been watching from the side?"

“As soon as I came in, I saw the Arrowhawk attacking Cat Boss. Its Flame Charge is really powerful,” Yang Xiying replied directly.

"If this Fiery Arrow Eagle can reduce a cat boss with full HP to the point of burning mosquito coils with just one shot, then it must be a very high-level weapon if it's not in a master duel."

He had also met Yang Xiying, the cat boss of Mito, who was level 42. It would take a Flame Charge from the Arrow Eagle to take it down.

That means it's a Talonflame of the same level that has a high level, or one with maxed-out Attack EVs and is carrying an item that increases the power of its moves.

The opponent hasn't recalled their Arrowhawk yet, and judging by their level, they're level 30. So, the situation is the latter: a Master Duel...

Well, knowing how to equip Pokémon with items and train their Effort Values ​​during battles already makes you a very skilled Pokémon Trainer.

"We are having a master battle, after all, Ms. Rita's Pokémon level is still a bit too high for us."

At this moment, Mito walked over, picked up where Yang Xiying left off, and then looked at the guy who was a generation younger than him with a strange look.

"But from what you're saying, Xiao Yang, it seems you know the Pokémon that Miss Rita uses," that's a Pokémon from the Kalos region.

Although some things have spread over there, such as Mega Evolution in the Kanto region, this Pokémon hasn't really spread over.

“After all, it’s the only Pokémon with the Gale Wings ability,” Yang Xiying replied directly, which made Rita show an interested expression.

"Oh? Handsome young man, you know this?"

Even before, she had never revealed any related information, and the Wings of Gale rarely spread to Kanto.

“My name is Yang Xiying. You can call me that, or even Xiao Yang, Yang, or even add the suffix ‘Mr.’.”

Yang Xiying's eye twitched. Calling him "little handsome guy" seemed a bit unconventional, and the person opposite her smiled.

"Alright, I'll call you Yang then. And since you've introduced yourself, I should respond. Rita Scamanderos, that's my name."

No wonder your voice has that Junko Enoshima vibe...

Upon hearing a familiar name, Yang Xiying's eye twitched. If the person opposite her wore wolf ears on their head, they would indeed resemble an old friend.

"So, Yang, can you tell me about the Arrowhawk?"

"Yes, Brave Bird's attack, which emphasizes the first-strike advantage, can almost wipe out weak Flying-type Pokémon in the battle environment."

"This is my impression of Talonflame. Its Gale Wings ability gives all Flying-type moves a +1 priority."

Yang Xiying responded directly, which left the surrounding patrolmen completely bewildered, as they needed to sort out her words.

An ability that grants all Flying-type moves a +1 priority?! No wonder Pidgeot's Quick Attack couldn't beat that thing!

In a battle of equal strength, the one with the faster attack will naturally prevail, and they had indeed witnessed the speed of the Arrow Eagle firsthand...

"Haha, with this kind of understanding, you can indeed take on the responsibilities of those two geniuses. How about a 3-on-3 match with me?"

P.S.: I still have two thousand words left, I'm still a bit too short...

No problem with NO.54! We absolutely will not lose!

——! ! !

Upon hearing Rita's words, the group of patrolmen immediately perked up, because this newcomer was challenging Yang Xiying to a duel!

"Oh, Yang Xiying, you're our last hope now! Don't lose to the newcomers!"

"Although the newcomers are indeed very strong, even if we lose the match, we will show them the spirit of the Pallet Town Rangers!"

"Well, that's true, but if we're talking about seniority, I should be the newcomer..."

Seeing everyone's expectant gaze fixed on her, Yang Xiying's expression became subtle.

Because, according to those around me, this 'newcomer' had been a patrolman for a long time, while I had only joined a month ago...

"I was just transferred from somewhere else. This is my first time in Pallet Town, so I can't really be considered a senior."

Rita responded to Yang Xiying with a smile.

"I'll have to ask you for help in this regard, Yang. Pokémon battles are a great way to communicate."

"—So, Mr. Yang, would you accept my challenge?"
