In the clean white ward, there was a pungent smell of disinfectant.
It was already dusk outside, and Jon suddenly woke up in the hospital bed.
"In the evening...there will be Mr. Dandi's championship match!"
Jon was wearing thin clothes and rushed out of the door in a panic.
"Jon!" The nurse's cry went unanswered.
Outdoors, an uncle in thick cotton clothes was drinking wolfberry tea from a hot water bottle, and a mighty steel-armored crow stopped beside him.
This is Galar's specialty industry, the steel-armored crow taxi.
"Ma, please..." Jon panted and said expectantly, "Take me to Dan Emperor's championship match!"
The uncle was slightly startled, put on his goggles, and grinned.
"Sit tight, my steel-armored crow is the fastest in Galar!"
The biting cold wind howled, and fine snow drifted in the air.
The steel-armored crow grabbed the car under his feet, flapped his steel wings, and galloped through the air.
Jon was lying on the car window, looking out, and was suddenly stunned.
"Mr. Driver, please stop for a moment!"
At the bottom of the field of vision, a purple-haired man wearing a champion's cape climbed to the top of the mountain and looked around.
The steel-armored crow flapped its wings and stopped, and the driver was shocked: "Champion! Why are you here!"
"Aha, I accidentally got lost."
"get lost!?"
Emperor Dan smiled and looked at the mighty steel-armored crow, his eyes lit up.
"You look like you're pretty good at flying."
Dan Di stroked the steel wings of the steel-armored crow, looked at the driver, and said with a smile.
"I have to fight a strong enemy next, and I don't want the fire-breathing dragon to be too tired. Can you give me a ride?"
"Well, we have to take this kid to the arena next." The driver rubbed his chin, "It's windy today, so I might not be able to make enough time..."
"By the way, just unload this and fly directly in the steel-armored crow!" The driver banged on the car.
"Then you..."
"Haha, don't worry, I'll be here later!"
Dan Di looked at Qiaoen next to the driver, was slightly startled, and then smiled.
"Then, let's go together."
…
Emperor Dan used his arms to shield Jon from the wind and rode on the back of the steel-armored crow.
The setting sun dyes the sea of clouds orange.
"Did you oversleep?" Dan Di asked with a smile.
"Um……"
"Hahaha, I often oversleep and get lost."
Jon wore goggles and said softly:
"Watching Mr. Dandi's game live is my dream."
Emperor Dan showed a gentle smile.
"Then, let's go to the scene together!"
The steel-armored crow flapped its wings and flew quickly towards the Gongmen City Arena.
"Are you scared?" Dandi asked the child in his arms with a smile.
The flowing clouds passed by from both sides, and Jon shook his head firmly.
Emperor Dan suppressed his smile and looked at the beautiful sunset.
"Me too!"
It was getting late, snowflakes were falling, and the entire arena was filled with orange lights.
"The Alchemy Champion hasn't arrived yet!" the assistant reported breathlessly.
"Maybe he got lost again." Roz tugged on his curly hair and said helplessly, "It's a common thing."
"But, the whole city's audience, and Jon..."
Roz stretched out his hand to interrupt and looked at the steel-armored crow that was gradually flying towards the night.
snap
Snapping his fingers, the light from the projector focused on Dan Di in the night sky and Qiaoen, who had just arrived.
In an instant, the entire audience burst into cheers like a tsunami.
"Look, it's the Alchemy Champion!"
"Is it that child?"
"Come on!"
"We finally arrived."
Sirona stood in the lounge, looked at the big screen, and sighed helplessly.
"Making someone stand in the snow for half an hour for nothing."
"Maybe Mr. Dandi got lost again."
Caidou looked at the black-haired young man on the screen and smiled.
"However, this is the charm of the master."
Sirona raised her eyebrows.
"Koujie~(;Д｀)" Gengar floated next to Sirona, holding a handkerchief in his mouth and cheering for his master with tears in his eyes.
"Didn't Geng Gui play together?" Caidou was surprised.
"Then Teacher Lu's team is..."
The boiling Gongmen City Arena was filled with screams and cheers, and the commentator's voice rang out.
"Gentlemen and ladies, the battle begins immediately!!"
Dan Emperor wore a cloak and smiled apologetically at the black-haired young man in front of him: "Long wait, Teacher Lu."
"Hurry up and fight." Lu Ye resisted the desire to fold his arms and shrug, "I'm about to catch a cold!"
"Lu, Teacher Lu!"
Jon looked at the trainer in front of him, his eyes blooming with bright colors.
The two sides in the championship match are Mr. Dandi and Teacher Lu!
The lights illuminated the green field brightly, and the palace gate arena with tens of thousands of people was packed with seats.
Although I was surprised by Lu Ye's identity.
But when they learned that Teacher Lu was Qiaoen's idol, the audience was relieved.
For the child's wish, he traveled thousands of miles to come here.
Winning or losing is secondary, the important thing is that everyone works together to realize the dream for the children.
The snow is falling heavily, and the orange light of the projection lamp blends with the snow and fog.
Dandi turned his back to himself, revealing the cloak full of symbols that symbolized Galar.
Jon stared at this scene blankly, feeling his ears suddenly become quiet.
"Does it make your dream come true just by looking at it?"
Emperor Dan whispered.
"You also want to become a Pokémon trainer, right?"
The cheers could no longer be heard.
Jon walked slowly towards Dan Emperor and stretched out his hand towards Dan Emperor's cloak, as if he wanted to grasp his dream of becoming a trainer.
Dandi turned around quickly, grabbed Jon's hand, and squatted down.
"Then, challenge me and become the strongest champion!" Emperor Dan smiled.
Lu Ye looked at this scene with a smile.
The light fell on his shoulders.
Lu Ye raised his gaze, as if he could see the bright golden color through the lens.
"Luka..."
The power of the waveguide was transmitted to the advanced ball, Lucario's tone was calm.
Only allowed once, never again.
Lu Ye and Dan Di walked toward the center of the field.
As Emperor Dan walked, he threw off his cloak and stretched out one hand toward the sky.
The cheers all around suddenly became enthusiastic, and the lights became dazzling.
"Come and witness Galar's championship moment!!"
These iconic lines and cute characters made Teacher Lu deeply envious.
I think of the iconic crimson hat brim and Du's cape.
Should I also prepare a move?
But, before that.
Lu Ye showed a friendly smile towards Jon and looked up at Dan Emperor.
In an instant, the power of the waveguide set off a strong airflow, blowing the black hair and clothes.
Lu Ye smiled slightly, his eyes stern.
The two voices sounded at the same time.
"Let's fight, Dan Emperor (Teacher Lu)!"
Cheers rose like a tsunami, and two beams of white light flew out from the high-level ball.
The shield sword monster flies in the night, its blade glowing with a cold luster.
The flower rock monster stretches out its pale green branches and leaves, shaking its fan-shaped branches and leaves.
"This is..." Emperor Dan was stunned for a moment and said with a smile.
"Even if it's a loan team, I won't show mercy!"
Lu Ye smiled.
I have used the rental team list several times in the battle tower.
What's more... this is my wife's full-level account!
The shield sword monster was flying in the mid-air, and the evil wave of the Huayan monster surged out, and the cold halo seemed to swallow it up.
"King's Shield!"
The Strong Shield Sword Monster closed its shield and turned into a defensive posture to resist the powerful wave of evil waves.
Immediately, the Shield Sword Monster unfolded its blade with a 'clop', and when it switched forms, the dazzling holy sword almost tore the sky apart!
"Hiss..." The flower rock monster gathered its branches and leaves to resist.
Fighting side by side with Lu Ye again, Huayan Monster also mobilized his state to the extreme.
"Fraud!"
The sword of the Strong Shield Sword Monster was as bright as a shooting star, and it slashed at him again.
The Huayan Monster burst into action, and the dark shadow extending from the fan turned into a big hand, firmly grasping the sword of the Shield Sword Monster!
Click!
Dandi quickly took out the next elf ball.
Dragon Baruto glides across the sky, its tail drawing a stream of air like a jet fighter.
In Doronbaruto's cold eyes, the missile locked the Huayan Monster firmly, and the two dragon arrows were launched "bang bang", bursting into brilliant firelight in the night sky.
Lu Ye also took back the Flower Rock Monster and raised his hand to send Lucario.
"Get close quickly and use Dragon Wave!"
"Luca!" Lucario was dissatisfied with the man's command, but his figure flashed rapidly to avoid the shadow ball flying from Doron Baruto.
boom!!
There were cracks in the ground, and the audience on both sides burst into enthusiastic cheers.
Who is this man?
He was actually able to fight to a tie with Mr. Dan Emperor!
Doubts arise in everyone's mind.
But at this moment, enjoying the battle is the most important thing.
Lucario used the waveguide to lock onto the ghostly figure of Dragon Baruto and quickly jumped onto its back.
"Kato!" Doronbaruto was suddenly startled.
"Luca!!"
With his hands folded and clasped together, the pale purple dragon wave formed a phantom, knocking down the dragon Baruto from the air!
It is indeed a top-notch number...it is so smooth to operate!
However, it is easier to use your own elf!
Lu Ye continued to direct, and Emperor Dan's eyes were also burning with excitement.
The aftermath of the move reflected throughout the venue.
Sonia hugged the caller, sat in the audience, and said to herself with a smile:
"Emperor Dan... looks very happy."
There were warm cheers on both sides, and two powerful trainers were very close.
Jon looked at this scene, covered his throbbing chest, and exhaled gently.
At some point, two lines of clear tears rolled down from his eyes.
Will I also...become a trainer?
This is almost impossible to accomplish.
But as long as I continue to believe.
One day.
I'll go up here, right at the Palais Arena.
In the lounge, Caidou was in a daze for a long time.
"Champion Sirona...is that your team?"
"Yes."
Sirona smiled slightly and nodded generously.
"But..." Caido opened her eyes wide.
The relationship between these two people has become so close that they share a team?
Even Lucario didn't seem dissatisfied with Teacher Lu at all.
That is the trainer's personal ability, which has reached its peak and will not allow the elves to disobey orders.
It is also a sign that the elves recognize the trainer.
These two people...could it be that they have been living together for a long time, and even the elves recognize both of them?!
On the field, the battle continues.
Under the command of Lu Ye, Aplysia spiraled the turbid current into a counterattack shield to resist the dragon's claws from the double-axe battle dragon.
This gorgeous and wonderful tactic made the field burst into exclamations of surprise.
Emperor Dan raised an excited smile.
"Wide area destruction!"
"Roar!!" The double-axe battle dragon slammed its tail on the ground, causing gravel to fly and the movement of the Aplysia beast to stop.
The double-axe fighting dragon took the opportunity to rush in, and suddenly swung out its blood-red double sickles!
The distance between the two sides was very close, and the sea rabbit stepped heavily on the ground, and the earth-yellow power was released.
In an instant, the two elves flew out upside down.
The scoreboard on the screen came to 5:5, and the audience cheered excitedly.
"It's coming, Dan Emperor's fire-breathing dragon!"
"That's the rehearsal step, right?"
"Yes, the new champion of Galar."
Dan Di took a deep breath, looked at each other and Lu Ye, and both of them laughed.
"Then the decision is yours!"
Dan Di took out the high-end ball at his waist: "Come on, Charizard!"
Scorching flames surged across the field, and the unstoppable fire-breathing dragon flapped its wings and roared majestically.
Lu Ye looked at Qiaoen beside Dandi and shouted with a smile:
"Jon!"
Jon wiped away his tears and looked up hurriedly.
"Now, it's your championship moment." Dandi gave Jon a gentle push.
Under the gaze and cheers of tens of thousands of spectators.
Jon staggered towards Lu Ye in confusion.
Lu Ye reached out and grabbed him with a slight smile.
"Take this elf ball, it will bring you good luck."
Lu Ye handed the elf ball to Jon's palm.
"This is..." Jon stammered.
"Right here."
Lu Ye pointed to the green field at his feet and looked up at the entire Gongmen City Arena.
"You also want to become a trainer."
Lu Ye said with a smile.
"Become, like Mr. Dandi, the strongest champion."
Jon was stunned for a long time and nodded vigorously: "Yeah!"
"Then, come on." Lu Ye stood behind Jon, "Use this elf that symbolizes good luck!"
Charizard flapped its wings, looked at Jon, and spit out clusters of flames from its mouth.
Jon stabilized his trembling legs and recalled in his mind what Dan Emperor asked him.
Are you afraid?
No.
Jon imitated Dan Di's movements, patted his cheek, and performed the movement that he had rehearsed thousands of times.
He lifted up his cloak and pointed to the sky with one hand.
This is my championship moment!
The silent Gongmen City Arena began to boil again.
Roz looked at this scene with a smile and wiped his eyes with the back of his hand.
"You seem to be moved, President Lord Lotz," the assistant said.
"No, it's just that the night wind is a bit strong."
In the lounge, Sirona looked at the black-haired young man on the screen.
"The encounter between man and spirit, the encounter between man and man."
Sirona felt her hot cheeks and said with a smile: "It's such a wonderful thing..."
"Come on, Jon!"
Dandi laughed heartily.
"Right here, challenge me!"
Jon nodded vigorously and threw the elf ball in his hand.
With Jon's trainer level, Lu Ye gave him the elf
"Chajidu咿~ヾ(°°)"
"Fire-breathing dragon, dance of the dragon!" Emperor Dan smiled, just like in the preview.
Lu Ye reminded softly in Jon's ear: "Command skills."
"Togepi, please!" Jon exhaled and said loudly: "Command Kung Fu!"
“Just chirp~!(▽｀)”
Togepi shook his finger, and in an instant, the ground began to tremble violently.
The audience, who had been smiling just now, were stunned.
"What move is this?"
I saw sharp rock pillars rising in rows, glowing with a cold light.
Even though he was Dan Emperor's fire-breathing dragon, his expression also changed.
During rehearsal, I never said I would use this trick!
Emperor Dan was slightly startled.
Quadruple resistance to Charizard's sharp stone attack...
Click!
In the silent venue, Charizard staggered and collapsed due to his performance.
But it hurts really.
Charizard burst into tears.
Be sure to ask Dandi for a meal after you go back!
…
Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of spectators.
Jon took over the championship cloak from Dan Emperor, suddenly hugged Dan Emperor's waist and cried loudly.
"Okay, go back and accept the treatment obediently."
Dandi smiled and touched Jon.
"Charizard and I will cheer for you!"
"What about me? I also put in a lot of effort!" Lu Ye said dissatisfied.
[Ding! Mission ‘Friendly match with Dan Emperor’ completed
Mission reward: Burning Orb*1, Star Peach Fruit*1]
Good guys... I've unlocked a new variety of tree fruits!
Jon wiped his tears and came to Lu Ye, his tears bursting again.
"Thank you, thank you Teacher Lu!"
"I'm just kidding, don't cry."
"Chajiduyi~!" Togepi was held in Lu Ye's arms, giggling.
Lu Ye looked at the immutable stone in Togepi's hand and smiled helplessly.
The intimacy level is already full…
It's just that Togepi was born less than three months ago, so the evolution can be postponed for a while.
It is said that Togepi is an elf that can bring happiness and good luck to people.
It is also often found with children.
This is also the reason why Togepi gave Jon the strength to dare to face the Dan Emperor.
And the strongest champion, the Alchemy Emperor of Galar...
Not because of his strength, but because of his responsibility to the people of Galar, he is called the 'Invincible Alchemy Emperor'.
Emperor Dan noticed Lu Ye's gaze and said with a smile: "Let's stay in Gongmen City for a few days, Teacher Lu."
"Sonia and I also plan to thank you and Miss Sirona."
"Of course." Lu Ye smiled.
Dandi smiled and pressed his hand on Jon's soft hair.
"Next, there will be a day when the champion is waiting for you. You can't embarrass the champion's cloak."
Jon held the championship cape full of advertisements, tears streaming down his face, and nodded vigorously.
"Whoa, Jon, don't wipe the snot on your nose, this is all I need!"
"Ha? Mr. Dandi, are you already so poor?"
“It’s nothing, it’s just that it’s too troublesome to customize, hahaha!”
…
Thursday, January 14th.
Major media in Galar reported on the deeds of Jon and Dandi.
Jon becomes Galar's 'One-Day Champion'.
Teacher Lu, Emperor Dan, and the people of Gongmen City cooperated to perform.
Looking at Jon wearing the championship cape, countless people were moved.
When you grow up, have you forgotten your original dream of becoming a trainer?
Although I loved Pokémon so much at the beginning, I was dragged down by the heavy reality.
Who doesn’t want to be a trainer and become the strongest champion?
Fulfilling Jon's wish not only saves Jon, but also saves himself.
"As long as you believe, you too can become the champion of Galar!"
"Even if I don't become a trainer, I can at least firmly believe that a miracle will happen."
"For the sake of their dreams, people always have to be a little crazy."
Jon's story is still being told.
But Roz gave up the great marketing opportunity and gritted his teeth and said:
"We have to let Dan Emperor accept a few more advertisements!"
If we talk about other alliances, they are jointly guarded by the Four Heavenly Kings and the champion.
Then the entire burden of Galar would fall on Dan Emperor alone.
Always on the road to battle, always on the way to get lost.
But this is Dandi, the strongest champion of Galar.
The trainer who faced off against Alchemy Emperor at his peak seemed to have disappeared from people's sight.
"Does anyone know who the trainer is who is evenly matched with Alchemy Emperor?"
"Donghuang's trainer has a team configuration similar to Sirona's."
"There is one less biting land shark...but this commanding ability is too terrifying!"
