After hearing Su Yuan say "I want to go to the Alola region", Kukui's expression changed slightly and he instinctively wanted to stop him.
This is not to say that Alola is inferior to Mordor.
However, now that Su Yuan has just won the Victini Cup championship, whether it is the Trainers Association of the Magic City, the School of the Magic School, or even the Alliance's Trainers Association headquarters, there is no need for Su Yuan's training and resources.
When tilting, no effort is spared.
In the Victini Cup, a champion who is only in his early eighteen years old!
The potential he shows now is almost comparable to that of Dandi, the current champion of the Galar region, when he first debuted.
But if Su Yuan now leaves the Magic City and goes to Alola.
There is no doubt that his growth rate in Alola is definitely not as fast as that in the Chinese Alliance.
Being a Pokémon trainer is a very expensive profession. The gap between those with resources and those without resources is as big as heaven and earth.
And, if...
This is just an assumption.
If Su Yuan's parents really...
No one wants to foresee that kind of situation.
This is one of the reasons why Dr. Kukui wants to prevent Su Yuan from going to Alola.
but......
"The will in his words...but so firm..."
Kukui, he really couldn't open his mouth to stop Su Yuan.
After a brief silence, Dr. Kukui spoke up again: "I can't say much about what you have made up your mind about."
"If I hadn't come to the Chinese Alliance to do something else, I could have accompanied you back to Alola..."
Su Yuan: "No need to trouble you, doctor..."
The words are not finished yet.
Kukui continued: "In that case, let Lillie accompany you back."
"As long as someone I know is accompanying me, I will have someone to take care of me."
Su Yuan: "[?_??] Ha??"
"That's it, it's settled. Lillie, I'll inform you later."
After saying the last sentence, Kukui immediately hung up the phone.
In the distant forest, the calls of night-walking Pokémon can be heard from time to time.
The bonfire outside the house was lit and extinguished.
Putting down the pen in his hand, Kukui's eyes were complicated.
"Now I just hope that things will not turn into the worst outcome..."
As a Pokémon doctor and researcher, Dr. Kukui naturally understands the consequences of being disconnected in the wild for a month.
There are more or less examples of this happening every year in the world.
This land is both beautiful and cruel.
If you want to love its good side, you must first accept its cruel side.
"No problem, if it's Lillie..." Dr. Kukui murmured to himself.
Although this girl named Lillie looks a little weak and shy, she also has her own gentleness and strength.
And this tenderness and strength...
Dr. Kukui firmly believes that even when Su Yuan is at a low point, this gentleness and strength can support him and let him stand up again.
...
The next day, at half past nine in the morning.
Inside the Super Gym, the gym trainers and challengers stopped fighting in perfect agreement.
All eyes were firmly fixed on one battle site.
In the crimson flames, a black light suddenly flashed away, and then the figure of the dream-inducing tapir flew upside down out of the field, losing its ability to fight.
The trainer of the Dream Tapir looked at the young general Teng Cui who looked at ease with ease, with a horrified expression.
He had personally experienced the value of being a Victini Cup champion.
He had four gym badges, but the Pokémon in Su Yuan's hand couldn't last four or five rounds!
This is because the Pokémon Su Yuan sent into battle this time was Tengqi, a young general in his team who was relatively low in strength.
Otherwise, this battle could end faster.
"Isn't this guy's progress too perverted?"
Beside the auditorium closest to the battle site, Ning Xue was holding the fire chicken, with the corner of her mouth twitching slightly.
"Drug abuse is not necessarily that intense."
Thinking back to when the two of them first met, I could still fight with him back and forth(?).
As for now...
This is no longer a question of whether he can beat Su Yuan.
Sighing helplessly, Ning Xue glanced ahead.
"Meta!!!"
Each of the metal monster's hands held a sign with the name "Su Yuan" written on it. He stood at the front of the competition venue and waved to cheer.
"Whose Pokémon is this??"
Su Yuan won the duels with the three gym trainers at an astonishing speed.
There were many battles where the opponent had just issued an attack order, but what was oncoming was General Tengcui who launched an extremely fast surprise attack!
As soon as the battle started, it was already over.
"How can we solve this fast-break style?"
There was a lot of discussion outside the venue.
What surprised these trainers the most was not such a simple and crude fast attack method, but the instructions given to the Pokémon by Su Yuan after seeing through the attack trajectory of the opponent's Pokémon.
Accurate pre-reading, combined with violent fast-break tactics, finally solved the "unsolvable" situation in front of us.
However, there are other trainers who choose another way to start.
For example, the dream-inducing tapir in the previous scene.
At the beginning of the game, he tried to use hypnosis to hypnotize young general Teng Cui...
All right.
Ning Xue admitted that when she saw someone trying to use "hypnosis" tactics on Su Yuan, she wanted to laugh a little.
Su Yuan, it’s fine if he doesn’t hypnotize you. How dare you hypnotize him?
Alas, the characteristic of this dream-inducing tapir is that it cannot sleep.
That's okay.
The final result was that General Tengcu pretended to fall into a comatose state and was waiting for the Dream Tapir to use phantom light to attack, when he suddenly launched a surprise attack with the "Fire State" - ending the battle with one blow!
According to the process of the gym challenge, all three gym trainers have been defeated, so naturally the next step is to face the gym leader.
Standing opposite Su Yuan, Ning Shuang re-evaluated Su Yuan's current strength in her heart.
Since the start of the Keldeo Cup, she has not played against Su Yuan for a long time.
Two large-scale competitions are enough to make a person's strength improve rapidly.
Although she didn't expect that Su Yuan would immediately start a gym challenge as soon as he came back.
But that's okay.
Su Yuan's specific strength is not yet clear, but he must have reached the level to challenge the third gym badge.
Fumbling for the six Poke Balls on her waist, Ning Shuang recalled Su Yuan's battle at the Victini Cup.
"Weather ball, and pre-read forecast..."
Ning Shuang whispered to herself, then looked up at Su Yuan and said with a smile: "How about changing the rules of this third gym challenge to doubles rules?"
Under normal circumstances, even the gym leader cannot easily change the rules of the competition.
However, if the challenger agrees, it is not impossible to change the singles rules to doubles while maintaining the same difficulty.
Hearing this, Su Yuan's eyes lit up and he said: "I can't ask for it!"
Su Yuan’s third gym competition!
Four-on-four doubles rules match!
According to the rules of the Gym Challenge, if the number of Pokémon in the challenging party is insufficient, the Pokémon in the gym can be rented.
Of course, Ning Xue's metal monster was requisitioned by Su Yuan.
This is a Pokémon that can only be rented by Su Yuan.
Ning Xue: "......?"
Although this is not the first time, Metal Monster, why are you inexplicably happy?
