When Ai Lan walked into this coffee shop, she paused for a moment.
He visited the original "Rising Sun Cafe", which was luxurious in style. The setting sun shone through the iridescent glass into the room, and every furnishing shone with a faint color. Some people claimed to have witnessed the actress Karena there.
The current coffee shop has a completely new look, and the environment leaves an intuitive impression on people——
cute.
It has a warm feeling that can make people relax instantly. The furnishings are spacious and neat, and a bottle of green plants is placed on the wooden table and flaxen tablecloth.
Ai Lan looked at Geng Gui lying on the glass in one place, slightly lost in thought.
It's that Gengar... who penetrated King Gosatsu's team in the Champions League!
"Kou Jie~"
Gengar was still staring at the Prism Tower outside the window, thinking happily.
When is the best time to set off~~ Let’s give the host a surprise then!
"Hoo uh..."
Charizard didn't seem to like this environment, turning his head from side to side in annoyance.
But when its sight fell on the squinting Fairy Eevee, the Charizard wisely kept silent.
According to my intuition...it's better not to anger this fairy Eevee!
"Buyi~"
Seeing that Charizard had no intention of provocation, Fairy Eevee yawned boredly and went back to the backyard to play on the swing.
"Welcome." Lu Ye said: "Any advice?"
The voice called back Ai Lan's attention. Ai Lan looked up at the bar, his pupils shrinking slightly.
A feeling of embarrassment when seeing seniors, nervousness when facing a powerful trainer, and excitement of wanting to fight...
He concealed his fighting spirit well, lowered his head and said politely:
"Teacher Lu, I am entrusted by Dr. Buratano to visit Your Excellency who has arrived in Carlos, and invite you to visit the institute!"
While Ai Lan was observing this 'legendary trainer'.
Lu Ye was also looking at this familiar black-haired young man.
He has a black vest and a blue neckband. Compared to Ash, he is more mature. Behind him is the inseparable fire-breathing dragon——
Ash's fierce rival in the Kalos region is Ai Lan. His Charizard is even nicknamed "Water Storage Spout" by the screenwriter's own son who has hard-wired several hundred thousand volts and golden sailor shurikens!
Of course, in addition to the high level of 'water storage spray', the dragon attribute in the X form is still quite popular in terms of attribute restraint.
"The research institute? I'll visit you later."
Lu Ye changed the topic and asked:
"Did we meet at the scientific research summit?"
Ai Lan was startled. She never thought that the other party still remembered her, so she nodded and said:
"Yes, I attended the scientific research summit as Dr. Buratano's assistant."
"Looking at it now." Lu Ye looked Ai Lan up and down and asked with a smile: "Have you started traveling?"
"That's right." Ai Lan nodded vigorously, with burning faith in his eyes, and quietly clenched his fists: "Charizard and I are starting to practice as the strongest Mega Evolution Messengers!"
After Ai Lan announced her family status.
The whole coffee house fell into silence.
Zhenniao glanced at Ai Lan, pushed up the round mirror, and information about Ai Lan automatically appeared in his mind.
As the secretary and intelligence officer of Team Rocket, the "Matori Matrix", a team directly under the control of the real bird, takes intelligence warfare as its top priority.
"Ai Lan, the envoy of super evolution, his partner is Super Charizard X, his strength..."
The real bird relaxed, sat on the sofa and crossed his legs, thinking to himself: "It's comparable to the king of heaven."
"Hoo!"
Following Ai Lan's declaration of "becoming the strongest", the fire-breathing dragon spread its wings and raised its head to spit out flames.
A cold gaze glanced over.
The wind speed dog, which was lying low on the ground, stood up lazily, its tiger-like pupils exuded a strong "intimidation", and it bared its teeth like a yawn.
Just because you are Erha at home does not mean that outsiders can also yell on your territory!
The fire-breathing dragon looked startled and suddenly became serious: "Hey..."
Ai Lan also noticed the wind-speed dog that had just hidden behind the sofa and now stood up with an extraordinary sense of oppression.
He is not a timid character, on the contrary, he is as eager to fight as Xiaozhi.
Even when faced with a trainer who was defeated in the Champions League, Ai Lan still firmly believed in his bond with Charizard.
Ai Lan's eyes were as bright as fire, and she became increasingly wary of the man in front of her. At the same time, she also had a strong will to fight.
Want to challenge this powerful Mega Evolution Messenger——
Showing my bond with Charizard...a super-evolved Mega form!
"Power of Waveguide" keenly sensed Ai Lan's emotional changes.
Teacher Lu raised his eyebrows.
Ai Lan doesn't want to fight Xiaozhi, but comes to me to level up?
However, in the current timeline, Xiaozhi is still traveling in the Hezhong area, and Ai Lan has just started traveling.
The 'water storage spray' in front of me is really not strong enough.
If Ai Lan doesn't take the initiative to challenge, he won't be able to bully his juniors.
Although the younger generation has been bullied enough, there is no need for another 'water storage spray'...
"Cough!" Lu Ye coughed slightly, it was enough to fill his stomach.
"I roughly understand the matter." Lu Ye said to Ai Lan, "Do you want to stay for a casual meal?"
It was an invitation in name, but in reality it was an eviction order.
Ai Lan frowned, glanced at the fire-breathing dragon, then lowered his head and said:
"To tell you the truth...I do have some personal requests!"
Ai Lan glanced at Gengar next to the glass window and continued:
"I heard that you are also a super evolution messenger."
"I would like to ask you about the secret of super evolution... If you can, please fight me with the Water Arrow Turtle!"
Hearing this, Lu Ye was stunned for a moment.
Challenge my turtle?
That said, Ai Lan, you are very brave!
Ai Lan watched the entire Champions League match and knew that her chances of winning against Mega Gengar were slim.
But in the finals of the Suzuran Tournament, the Mega form of Super Blastoise was broken up by Charizard.
Ai Lan is confident that with the strength of the fire-breathing dragon, he might not be able to fight against Teacher Lu's Water Arrow Turtle.
What's more... my goal is to become the strongest Mega Messenger.
To do this, it is necessary to replace the fire element with the dragon element, and reverse those restrained attributes with Super Charizard X!
Ai Lan's eyes were burning, her arms were folded together by her legs, and she bowed: "Please!"
There was silence in the coffee shop.
The setting sun shone into the room, Ai Lan's expression was determined, and she still kept her bowing movements.
The fire-breathing dragon stood behind him, with stern eyes, looking directly at Lu Ye: "Hey!"
To be honest, Teacher Lu doesn’t have much objection to this ‘water storage spray’.
There is a bond between Xiaozhi and Ninja, and there is a bond between Ai Lan and Charizard.
The mistake lies in the wrong concept. (Wrong screenwriter)
In order to become stronger, other valuable things have been neglected.
Lu Ye turned on the faucet, washed the dishes slowly, and said casually:
"What does Charizard mean to you, Ai Lan?"
Ai Lan was startled, then slowly raised his head, then clenched his fist and said, "Charizard is my strongest partner."
"Continue to force your will in desperate situations, and fight bravely even when facing the opposite attributes..."
"I want to stand at the peak of strength with Charizard, and I won't hesitate to pay the price for it!"
Ai Lan's firm voice echoed in the coffee shop.
Lu Ye turned off the faucet, took the towel from Cong Youbing, and raised his clear eyes.
Influenced by Fralida's ideas, Ai Lan has a strong obsession with becoming the 'strongest'.
He constantly forced Charizard to grow, and Charizard in turn did his best for Ai Lan.
There is undoubtedly something missing…
Because to protect the things you value, you don’t need to be the strongest. The vision of “wanting to protect others” is the most powerful.
Just like Daigo who protects the entire Hoenn; Dan Emperor who shoulders the entire Galar.
At this moment, Ai Lan still cannot understand this truth.
During the next trip, he will meet Xiaozhi, his little girlfriend Manon, and even Daigo-san.
But at the moment, he and Charizard are still too young.
"Are you sure-"
Lu Ye stood at the bar, like an ordinary shop owner, with his eyes focused, and asked with a smile:
"Want to challenge me?"
The voice was clear and gentle.
There was a drop of cold sweat on Zhenniao's forehead, and his chest was throbbing strongly.
Behind him, Shinori could vaguely see the shadow of Boss Sakaki.
No, that's not Sakaki, that's the mentor of the entire Rainbow Rockets!
Ai Lan felt that his throat was being strangled, and his breathing was inexplicably stagnant. He had never experienced this feeling even with Fralida.
The strength of the man in front of me is probably far beyond my imagination.
However, I must also challenge.
Charizard and I will stand on the top of the strongest!
Ai Lan adjusted her breathing, tried her best, and lowered her voice: "Please, accept my challenge!"
The entire coffee house was filled with a solemn atmosphere, and even the air became sticky.
"Chajidu咿~ヽ(≧??≦)??"
Until Togepi ran happily through the lobby, suddenly breaking the silence.
Ai Lan's beliefs are similar to Xiao Zhi's.
As a teacher, it is natural to spank the baby, ahem, to educate the younger generation.
Lu Ye nodded and said:
"I accept it."
Ai Lan relaxed his shoulders, exhaled a long breath, and found that his palms were actually a little sweaty.
"But," Lu Ye said, "we have to finish dinner first."
"Gah! (????????)σ"
Yaya, who was standing aside as a cook, snickered.
That's right~~
Only when you are full can you have the strength to fight against the duck~!
"It's okay, I'll just wait outside the store." Ai Lan turned and walked out the door.
Lu Ye stopped Ai Lan.
"You don't have to go outside the store, come and help me try a poison... cough, try a dish!"
…
Today’s store recommendations are Eevee latte, Pikachu crispy curry, and apple wild fruit salad.
The so-called Ibrahimovic latte uses Ibrahimovic as a latte pattern. It has a cute shape and a wonderful taste that calms the soul.
The real bird picked up the Eevee latte, took a careful sip, and felt the silky smoothness in his mouth.
After licking the tip of his tongue, the real bird turned his attention to the fragrant Pikachu curry.
The curry rice is arranged in the shape of Pikachu, and even the ears are restored to perfection. It is soaked in the mellow soup, and the spices are exciting.
The real bird holds up the spoon and cannot take its mouth.
"What's wrong with you?" Lu Ye asked.
"It's so, so cute." The real bird whispered, "I don't want to eat it..."
Lu Ye took the spoon from the real bird, smashed the 'Pikachu' ears on her plate, and handed the spoon back to the real bird:
"This way the curry will be more delicious."
Real bird: "...thank you."
Ai Lan and Charizard sat at the table on the other side, with a plate and a pot of [Apple and Wild Fruit Salad] in front of them respectively.
It’s not that I have no appetite.
We are really short of money and cannot afford staple food.
Ai Lan looked at Charizard who had his head buried in the salad basin and asked: "How does it taste?"
There was no response at all. Charizard chewed the apple fruit with a "hum hum hum" sound, and the tail flame burned excitedly!
"So it turns out that practicing cooking to the extreme can also have the effect of cultivating elves."
Ai Lan looked like his world view had been refreshed, and murmured:
"Mr. Zhimi's cooking skills can't reach this level..."
On the other side, the real bird scooped in a small spoonful of curry and held the side of his face in his hands, his cheeks suddenly turned red.
Her whole body was numb and trembling, and she saw Pikachu playing in the forest, and the river that passed by was golden and shiny.
"Okay, delicious!" The real bird's eyes were filled with tears.
Lu Ye fell into deep thought,
Did you add too much spice?
No matter what, as long as the customers are satisfied!
As night falls, the city of Miare is filled with neon lights.
The little ones gathered around the freshly baked macarons in the shape of Rotom Oven and devoured them.
If curry rice is the representative of the Galar region, then macarons must be the representative of the Kalos region.
The brightly colored macarons are delicate and small, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They are also suitable for Pokémon to eat.
"Kah..." The water arrow turtle was still chewing the energy cube.
Turtles don't like to eat brightly colored macarons...this is the same as not eating brightly colored mushrooms.
Immediately, the Blastoise set its sights on Charizard wearing the Mega device.
"Kaaa...ヾ(??■_■)"
This fire-breathing dragon can actually Mega evolve!
It seems that I have to prepare resurrection grass in advance...
"It's almost time for dinner." Ai Lan stood up and looked over with burning eyes, "Teacher Lu!"
Lu Ye: "The dinner price is too high, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it."
Ai Lan: "...I mean Pokémon battle."
Lu Ye glanced at the real bird.
The real bird immediately understood and said respectfully: "There is a professional battle arena in the backyard of our store, please come with me."
Lu Ye:???
Should I ask you to spray the stored water and take it to the backyard?
I asked you to rent a venue and let Ai Lan pay for it if you damage it!
Zhentiao whispered: "The battle venue underground in the backyard adopts the standards of the Champions League, so please don't worry."
Lu Ye was stunned for a moment.
Is there another battle arena underground?
Arriving at the backyard, the real bird pressed the switch, and the middle of the field suddenly opened to both sides. With the sound of rumbling machinery, the new battle arena gradually rose.
Boom!
The venue is fixed.
Lu Ye was slightly surprised, and then he muttered: "In the future, we can let Miaomiao and the others transform it."
If nothing else, at least make sure this coffee shop won’t be demolished by an “earthquake”!
To be cautious, Lu Ye asked Fairy Eevee to use the [Light Wall + Reflective Wall] move combination to reinforce the surrounding area.
"Please be the referee, Zhenniao——"
Before he finished speaking, the Rotom Pokédex had already picked up the flag and floated to the center of the field.
"The referee must be fair and beautiful, Lotto!"
Ai Lan was wearing a black vest. He quickly stretched out his hand to hold it tightly and said in a stern voice: "Come on, Charizard!"
"Hoo!"
The fire-breathing dragon flapped its wings and landed on the field, creating a strong wind. The evolution stone on its neck was bright and eye-catching.
Lu Ye threw the diving ball, and the strong wind around him suddenly calmed down under the action of the waveguide.
Boom!
A dull and simple landing sound.
The water arrow turtle had an evolution stone hanging on its neck, and looked silently at the 'water-storing spray', with the cannon barrel behind it glowing faintly.
A strong fear arose in Ai Lan's heart.
But he also has his own pride and the bond with the fire-breathing dragon!
"The battle begins, Lotto!"
As soon as the flag waved down, Ai Lan stretched out his gloved right hand. The keystone bracelet on his wrist shone with dazzling luster, and he quickly clenched his fist and said:
