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

Although both Geodude have the Sturdy ability, their Effort Values ​​(EVs) are trained differently: one trains their Attack, and the other trains their Defense.

However, to accommodate newcomers, the training intensity will not be too high, with each effort value only around 30 or 40.

— It takes at least one or two months to master a particular skill.

In short, because of these factors, it's difficult for most trainers to speedrun a game with just one Pokémon, let alone Yang Xiying using a Pokémon.

But if he has enough babies, it won't be a problem. It's just that each baby is more ferocious than the last...

After Diglett comes 3D Porygon 2, which is so difficult to obtain that many people have never seen its fighting style.

It even created the illusion that it was not good at fighting, but in reality, this thing is terrifyingly strong; a single Ice Beam can take the lives of a large number of Pokémon.

Its defense is also terrifying. One trainer even had Geodude use a move with a power of 200, Self-Destruct, and it could only take away 30% of Geodude's health.

But that's not the most desperate thing. The most desperate thing is that this thing can regenerate its own moves, so Porygon2's toy-duck-like,憨厚 (honest and simple) appearance also looks somewhat hateful.

Compared to Diglett 3D Dragon 2, the Mankey is much more normal, even though it is level 27 and can still use advanced fighting techniques like close combat.

However, after a few rounds, this guy evolved into Infernape, and its destructive power will become even greater.

Therefore, Yang Xiying used these Pokémon to challenge the Pewter City Gym dungeon and emerged with an almost crushing victory.

—It's impossible not to attract attention.

“So I’m qualified to have the Pyrenees Gym Badge, right?” Yang Xiying asked the person opposite her directly.

“That’s right, but isn’t the first challenge a bit too much for you? I can now take on the second challenge.”

Xiao Gang nodded, then changed the subject, saying that the strength the opponent showed yesterday certainly didn't seem like someone who could only challenge level one.

Although the level of Diglett, Incineroar, and Dragon2 is indeed insufficient, these are more like things Yang Xiying throws out to increase practical combat experience.

The bigger ones are yet to come; the Slowpoke and Giant Vine he showed off yesterday are no ordinary creatures.

—Besides them, there should also be Pokémon of level 30 or higher on the other side.

"If you win, I will give you the Rock Totem TM that is passed down in Pyrenees Gym, along with the badge."

"I understand."

Yang Xiying nodded. Although the move learning device wasn't necessary for him right now, he still needed to continue at level two.

Because you can get more rewards, and the quest progress of challenging the Pewter City Gym can be completed by 2/3, well, it is only considered complete after passing Level 3.

However, you can receive certain rewards in the first two stages, such as higher-level healing items like potions and higher-level Poké Balls.

The number of times a Pokémon learns a move corresponding to its Gym attribute × N; these are the rewards you can get in the first two stages.

The rewards for the final stage are even better, but what really caught Yang Xiying's eye was the Aerodactyl evolution stone...

That's right! Aerodactyl can also Mega Evolve! If it weren't for the fact that its own Pokémon is only level 50 or higher.

—Otherwise, he would still like to take on the challenge.

"Then let's begin."

Xiao Gang's lips curled slightly, then he grabbed his jacket and lifted it up, revealing his powerfully muscular upper body!

He clenched his fists, crossed them in front of his chest, striking a classic pose from the game, and then threw the trainer's card at Yang Xiying!

Yang Xiying also went to meet them, and then entered the other-dimensional arena to prepare for the battle. The second level trial was a master duel at level 30.

The specific rule is 3 vs 3, so there must be three Pokémon that meet the requirements, and Gym Leaders can bring items freely.

There are no special restrictions on Effort Values, but you still have to send out your Pokémon first. However, you can switch Pokémon up to three times during a battle.

Both sides log in their Pokémon for the battle at this moment, and after logging in, the artificial referee, unique to the Master Duel Device, appears.

"Both sides have logged in their Pokémon. Since this is a gym challenge, please send out your Pokémon first, Gym Leader."

The stick figure in the pink suit spoke.

"This is the Pokémon I'm sending out!" Brock threw out the first Pokémon, and then a Pokémon several tens of centimeters long appeared.

It was a Pokémon that resembled a turtle, with yellow tentacles and a long head protruding from its red hard shell.

"It's actually a pot?! Master Xiao Gang is getting serious!" The onlookers were in an uproar.

Yang Xiying also understood the reason for the commotion on the other side, because Xiao Gang had taken out a very eerie Pokémon.

Shuckle is a Bug/Rock type Pokémon with a base stat total exceeding 500, but its stat distribution is extremely extreme.

Its HP, Attack, Special Attack, and Speed ​​are pitifully low, but its Physical Defense and Special Defense are incredibly high, both at 230. It also has the Sturdy ability.

Such a Pokémon naturally also has the opportunity to attack. Although it cannot attack, its support capabilities are no weaker than Forretress.

"This is quite an unexpected Pokémon," Yang Xiying couldn't help but say, before throwing out her first Pokémon.

"—Now you'll be the first to go, Foretus!"

Yang Xiying sent out her old friend, but this friend was new to everyone around her, and they were somewhat surprised.

After all, Potpot and Freytos look somewhat harmonious together.

Xiao Gang frowned at this moment. The opponent did indeed bring out a Pokémon above level 30 that he had never seen before, but that thing was Forrettos.

Although its Defense stat isn't as balanced as its Shuttle, the combination of Bug/Steel typing and Sturdy makes it a formidable wall.

And the skills it can learn...

"Pot! Smash it down!" Regardless of the circumstances, Xiao Gang still gave the order, and Yang Xiying followed suit.

"Iron Head—!!!"

Both commands were issued simultaneously, but Foretus was faster, shrinking his body into a spherical shape and spinning at high speed to crash into Shuttle!

The pot was sent flying backward, losing nearly 40% of its health bar. But the little turtle then stretched out its yellow tentacles!

It hit Foretus directly, but it didn't do much damage, only about two percent.

However, the knockdown move prevents the opponent from enjoying the effects of carrying items, so it knocked off Foretus's bumpy helmet.

The health bar suddenly dropped by 1/6, which made the onlookers feel uncomfortable. So this time they're not going to give the Diglett the Foretus belt?

—The pot's health bar is down to 50%.

"Potpot! Invisible Rock!" Xiao Gang continued to command at this moment, while Yang Xiying also had Forretos headbutt again!

The pot, whose health bar was less than 40%, suddenly retracted into its shell and then spun rapidly, scattering a large number of sharp rocks across the area!

"Foretrus! High-speed spin!" Yang Xiying continued to attack, but at this moment he switched to a new move!

This move can remove stealth rocks, although its power is about the same as when the opponent's Shuckle uses Knock Off Forretress.

However, the opponent only has 10% health left, so it's only a matter of time before the opponent is worn down by high-speed spinning. Moreover, high-speed spinning can also increase Foretus' speed.

—This way you can surpass the speed of your opponent's Pokémon!

"Come back, Pot!"

Xiao Gang used his first substitution opportunity at this moment because he realized that Hu Hu had no advantage against Freitus.

The best time to switch is now, and the opponent has been using physical attack moves, which will trigger one of his Pokémon's abilities!

"Bang—!!!" Because of Brock's substitution, Forrettos' high-speed spin slammed into another Pokémon!

This is a blue, soft-bodied creature with a milky-white conch shell hanging from it. It has a ferocious appearance and is quite terrifying, standing a full meter tall.

Having lost less than 10% of its blood due to the attack, it became even more hideous, its entire body radiating blue flames.

"A spiny ammonite with shattered armor?"

Yang Xiying recognized the new face that had suddenly appeared; it was Omastar, an ancient Pokémon that had gone extinct.

But Xiao Gang wasn't surprised that he had one, since the opposing team had Aerodactyls, and the most important thing now was how to fight those things.

Omanyx is one of the few Rock-type Pokémon that focuses on Special Attack, which is somewhat disadvantageous for his team composition.

—And just now the opponent triggered Shatter Armor and their speed increased by two levels!

"Yang, you really are very knowledgeable."

Upon hearing Yang Xiying's words, Xiao Gang couldn't help but sigh, feeling a sense of crisis in the face of this person.

"Omanyx! Surf!" This is the best strategy against Forretress, which has low Special Defense. Even without a type advantage, it can still deal high damage.

"Foretus! Come back!"

Yang Xiying switched Pokémon at this time. If Omastar is trained properly, it can easily defeat his Forretress.

So we had to change the character. The water-type Slowpoke was a good fit. The pink monster appeared instantly and was then overwhelmed by the waves created by Omanyte!

The Pokémon's health bar dropped by 25% in one go. It's quite rare for a Rock-type Gym Pokémon to use a Water-type move.

Meanwhile, the Omastar's health bar also dropped by 10%, which is clearly the Omastar equipped with the Life Orb.

Yang Xiying's Slowpoke prop was naturally leftovers, and her health bar was restored to 80% at this moment.

"Slowpoke..." Brock pondered for a moment as he looked at the new Pokémon sent out by the other side, and then gave the command!

"Primal Power—!" At this moment, the Omanyte gathered energy and then spewed out a brown beam of light from its mouth!

It hit the Slowpoke directly! Its health bar suddenly dropped by 40%, and then the situation became strange.

At least that's how it appears to those around them, because Yang Xiying didn't give any orders this time, but Xiao Gang saw the Omastar yawn.

"Come back! Omastar!" Brock used his second Switch at this moment, knowing that the opposing Slowbro had yawned.

Then he would have to bring back Omastar, and his choice was Shuttle, which would be difficult to use in battle with only 10% health.

"Come back! Slowpoke!" Yang Xiying followed suit, sending out Giant Vine to counter Brock's Shuttle.

"..." Xiao Gang frowned. Now he was completely outnumbered. The giant vine on the other side had knocked down the pot with a single ultimate absorption.

"I'm counting on you now! Aerodactyl!" Xiao Gang dispatched the Aerodactyl that had appeared when they caught the thief before!

"Fossil pterosaur! Two wings!"

"Giant Vine! Come back!" Yang Xiying recalled the Giant Vine at this moment, and then released the Slowpoke she had recalled earlier.

The Slowpoke's health bar recovered to 70% at this moment, that's regeneration! The Aerodactyl's attack only caused the Slowpoke to lose nearly 30% of its health.

—The opponent's health has recovered to 50% because of the leftovers!

"...!" Xiao Gang's sense of crisis is growing stronger and stronger. Yang Xiying has started to lead him by the nose!

"Fossil Pteranodon! Twin wings!" Xiao Gang could only pray that the fossil pteranodon would hit a vital spot, but that was no easy task.

"Hot water—!" The Slowpoke's health bar dropped sharply, but this time it launched an attack, and a stream of heat slammed directly into the Aerodactyl.

The fossil pterosaur's health bar dropped by 80%! It even suffered burns, but the item it was carrying was a Wood Seed Fruit.

It can remove abnormal statuses from Pokémon, which convinced Yang Xiying that she was right not to yawn.

Furthermore, the opposing Aerodactyl is a Rock-type, and Water-type attacks deal double damage. It also doesn't have any moves that can particularly threaten Slowbro...

—If he weren't greedy, he wouldn't be human!

"Double Wings!" Xiao Gang continued to send the Aerodactyl to attack; the opposing Slowpoke still had 25% health left! He would decide the outcome with Double Wings.

Although the opponent is likely to switch out, Slowbro is low on health, and given its Regenerator ability, it would be a huge loss not to switch out your Pokémon.

"Slowbro is back!" Just as Brock had predicted, Yang Xiying swapped out her Pokémon, and this time it was Forrettos.

It withstood the attack from the fossil pterosaur with ease, and Forretos still had 70% of its health remaining.

"Fossil Pteranodon! Come back!"
