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

It was easy to walk around. When Yang Xiying arrived, she saw the open gate of the dojo. As she walked in, a white-haired man with bronze skin came to greet her.

"...Didn't we meet at the Pewter Gym last time?"

Upon seeing this man, Yang Xiying almost lost her composure, and the explanation he gave was even more unsettling.

Because the one in Dark Grey City is his brother. No, you guys are also in the wholesale business like Miss Joey and the others, right?

Of course, there's no need to worry too much about these details. The most important thing is to challenge the gym, and the gym rules are very simple.

First, you reach level one, cross the swimming pool to the end, where Gym Leader Misty awaits the courageous trainer.

Therefore, the prerequisite for completing this challenge is being able to swim. Of course, you can also have a Pokémon carry you across.

However, the challenge from the Pokémon Trainers in the pool cannot be ignored; there are currently five Pokémon Trainers stationed in the pool.

They were all older brothers and sisters wearing swimsuits. Ignoring the older brothers, Yang Xiying was a little intimidated by the older sisters in swimsuits.

After all, if he beats them, the other side will have to pay him some inexplicable reward, and this is in a public place!

No, the other side should be able to hold out for a while, and besides, Xia is glaring at me the whole time...

—Are you still holding a grudge?

Do you need to change into your swimsuit?

At this moment, the guide also reminded Yang Xiying that the fact that Hua Lan Dojo proposed a swimming test meant that this was a water-themed dojo.

Swimsuits are allowed here; even the gym leader, Misty, is wearing a school swimsuit and a jacket.

—It has to be said, this is a dojo with tons of perks.

"of course."

Yang Xiying didn't want to get his clothes wet, so he quickly became naked. Of course, he hadn't yet mastered the diving club's techniques, so he was still wearing swim trunks.

However, this still drew a lot of attention to him...

PS: This is a combined chapter; there are still sixteen chapters left.

NO.149 is a swimsuit episode!

"You're developing quite well, kid. Come and have a Pokémon battle where you give it your all!"

Inside the pool, a muscular man wearing a swimming cap and goggles stood in front of Yang Xiying, holding a Poké Ball.

“…Hmm,” Yang Xiying replied to the other side, holding up his trainer card. He had a feeling that the other person was carrying a murderous aura.

His gaze kept drifting down to his own body. Were those abs really that attractive? Although he had indeed gained a lot of muscle from practicing martial arts.

But the guy on the other side isn't bad either; he looks like he works out regularly... Does that mean all men who work out have the same tendency?!

Forget it, let's deal with the other side quickly.

Both sides opened up an alternate dimension and entered the battlefield. Because it was a swimming pool, the battlefield underwent some changes.

Although the surrounding area is also a stadium seating structure, the field was flooded with water, which was knee-deep.

But Yang Xiying also felt that the soles of her feet were not on the floor, but on something very soft, as if she were on the surface of water.

Is this the power of technology? But... why do I feel like the stares from those around me are getting more and more intense?

Yang Xiying didn't feel anything much when he ran into the pool, but now he felt the same kind of gaze as before he went into the water.

It felt like there was something strange about me. Oh, the swim trunks I just chose seem a little small...

Suddenly realizing something, Yang Xiying glanced at the others out of the corner of her eye and found that their gazes were all unusually consistent.

The men all had expressions of barely contained tension, while the women were surprised, curious, and even a little shy. Yang Xiying suddenly fell silent, then snapped her fingers.

She quickly changed into a pair of loose-fitting four-corner swim trunks, and then Yang Xiying noticed a hint of disappointment in the eyes of the older women in swimsuits.

He suddenly understood everything; he was still the Sand Snail Python boy after all…

“…Let’s start the Pokémon battle now,” Yang Xiying said, but she still took the Poké Ball off her waist as if nothing had happened.

"Let me show you how powerful the Cerulean Gym Leader is!" Just like women care about their bust size, men also care about certain things.

There aren't many opportunities to compare, and it's usually not very obvious, but now they feel that reality is really tough!

"Go, Mariluri!"

The swimsuit-clad man sent out a rather muscular blue Pokémon, which looked like a rabbit but was the size of an egg.

—However, she is very cute.

Marilure! LV20, Female!

"Oh?"

Yang Xiying raised an eyebrow, then pulled out a giant vine. Its level 47 instantly made the opponent unable to hold on, and the onlookers couldn't hold on either.

"...Even if you win, you won't get much experience points," the swimsuit-clad man said, sweating profusely.

—How can he fight with such a level difference? He should just challenge level two directly!

"It's alright, I've turned on the learning device, it won't affect the other Pokémon's leveling up," Yang Xiying raised her hand and gave a thumbs up, indicating that they shouldn't delay.

Cerulean City Gym is a Water-type gym, and all Pokémon used there are Water-type Pokémon, so Yang Xiying chose Vinegar to lead the charge.

His advantage lies in attributes! Although the level difference is too great and the Giant Vine can't absorb much experience, the learning device makes it alright.

—His baby Pokémon can watch battle recordings.

"...What rich kid!" The swimsuit-clad man couldn't help but complain, as the learning device was an extremely rare item.

However, as a gym leader, he couldn't back down, and even if the opponent's Giant Vine was high-level and Grass-type, so what?

His Amaril is a herbivore! Grass-type moves that are super effective against Water are ineffective against Amaril, and they also raise its Attack by one stage!

"Marilluri! Rain Dance!" I still have the right to act! Let's change the weather on the field first!

Rainy weather is advantageous for Water-type Pokémon in battle!

"Giant Vine! Sludge Bomb!"

Yang Xiying also gave the order at this moment. Because the giant vine was basically superior in level, its attack speed was undoubtedly fast!

Suddenly, its vine arms began to ooze a thick, purple liquid, and then with a flick of its wrist, several chunks of purple sludge hurtled toward Marilluri!

Bang bang bang——!!!

When Mariluri was hit by the sludge block, it was as if she had been struck by a missile; she was sent flying backward, her health bar completely depleted.

"…!" The swimsuit-clad man was somewhat stunned, while Yang Xiying slowly spoke up at that moment, "It's normal for Grass-type Pokémon to have a bit of poison, right?"

"...So you know about Mariluli?" Upon hearing this, the swimsuit-clad man realized that his opponent knew his fighting style.

“I do know about the Dragon Slayer,” Yang Xiying said casually. Azumarill, a Water/Fairy type Pokémon.

However, since it has the ability to eat grass, Yang Xiying's Giant Vine cannot use grass-type moves, although it will have some poison.

Poison type is also effective against Fairy type. Recently, I've been encountering more Fairy type Pokémon, so I need to have some ways to deal with them.

The most suitable one is naturally the giant vine, so it can also be a four-attack configuration with an assault vest.

"Dragon Slayer?" The swimsuit-clad man asked, puzzled. Yang Xiying casually replied, "Fairy type is super effective against dragon type, and the special ability is Hercules."

The amazing thing about Marill is that it has great attributes and abilities, especially Huge Power.

The power of physical attacks will double, so even if this child's physical attack stat is 50, it can still deal decent damage.

Moreover, it also has Belly Drum, a powerful move that maximizes its attack power, making it an extremely strong Pokémon.

—But the other side isn't quite there yet.

“Slaying the dragon is only natural. Now it’s time for you to send out your next Pokémon,” Yang Xiying urged the other side to continue.

The swimsuit-clad man sent out a blue seahorse-type Pokémon, Horsea Seahorse, a dragon-type Pokémon that sprays ink when it encounters danger.

There's not much to say about this Pokémon, Yang Xiying. Let it evolve twice and then fight the Giant Vine. So Yang Xiying easily defeated the first obstacle in her path.

Secondly, Yang Xiying did not use the giant vines to crush them, but instead sent out the 3D Dragon 2, which was exactly level 30.

And the opponent couldn't be damaged at all, so the result was that Yang Xiying's Porygon 2's Thunderbolt was used to wipe them out!

This way, Yang Xiying doesn't even need to use Porygon-2 in the battle; the third Pokémon he sends out is Primeape! Primeape knows Thunder Punch!

Of course, the Cerulean Gym has also prepared a way to deal with Electric-type moves, namely the Water-type Pokémon Goldeen with the Lightning Rod ability.

However, these Pokémon defenses only offer half the protection. While Goldeen is immune to electricity, it is not immune to grass.

Just like the swimsuit-clad older sisters who command them, Primeape also has a Seed Bomb, making it a very versatile attacker.

Yang Xiying also took this opportunity to have Infernape repeatedly use Rage Punch to increase its proficiency, and then, to everyone's astonishment—

Incineroar is glowing...

PS: Update! Fifteen more chapters to go!

NO.150 vs. Xiaoxia in a 3-on-3 match!

"Is...is this evolution?!"

"Primalmon can evolve?!"

When they saw the Primeape start to glow, the group of people were immediately shocked, because this was the glow of evolution.

But according to their understanding, Primeape is already the final evolution, and now it can actually evolve a third time...?!

"Howa—!!!"

Bathed in white light, Infernape's body began to change, its size remaining almost the same as its original form, with blood-red pupils.

The skin on his limbs was a grayish color, as if he had been mining coal, and his white hair had turned gray, but his appearance was as if he hadn't combed his hair in a long time.

— Drifting like a flame.

"Compared to its original grumpy self, this kid looks even more dejected... Wait! This is big news! Primalmon has evolved!"

Fortunately, Cerulean Gym is different from Pewter Gym. Battles at Cerulean Gym are not open to the public, and only the Gym Leader, Gym Trainers, and substitutes are allowed to participate.

Otherwise, this scene would have caused a huge sensation.

But this was enough to greatly shock the surrounding gym trainers and gym leaders; the only one who remained calm was Yang Xiying.

Of course, he still smiled at that moment.

"Howa—!!!"

At this moment, the evolved Infernape roared, then turned around abruptly and charged towards Yang Xiying with its fists!

"Ah—! Danger—!"

Those who witnessed this scene also showed expressions of alarm, and the swimsuit-clad men watching from the stands instinctively went to stop it!

They've also seen examples of Pokémon undergoing drastic personality changes during evolution!

boom--! ! !

But they were surprised to find that Yang Xiying stepped forward at that moment and, to everyone's astonishment, swung her fist to meet theirs!

The collision between the two sides also generated violent shockwaves, causing water to splash across the battlefield, making it difficult for those around them to see the two figures clearly for a moment.

When the water flow calmed down, everyone also discovered that Yang Xiying had also immobilized the evolved Infernape's fist with a single palm strike.

"..."

Seeing this, no one knew what expression to make. Then, Yang Xiying released the evolved Primeape's fist and smiled as she spoke.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. It's just that the Primeape evolved and wanted to test its strength with me." He had captured this guy with his fists and feet.
