At this time, the small town of Lili was filled with a different atmosphere than usual.
Although there was not a huge crowd of people, it was definitely a lot busier than the usual cold scene.
At the entrance of the town, a signboard "Celebrating the Festival" was specially hung.
"Bravo......"
A boy who looked to be only eight or nine years old raised his head and looked up at the festival sign, and then at the fiery scene inside the town, with longing in his eyes.
Regarding the rumors about celebrating the festival, he had already heard some news from his parents.
Fun games, delicious snacks, an exhibition match with the King of the Island himself...
And the island guardian god who has been guarding Alola since ancient times!
These are all things that these children yearn for.
Even if the latter two are more important in their hearts, they may be far less important than the first two.
But what does this have to do with him?
Now I just think about how to have a good day!
"Ahem!!"
Unfortunately, the little boy's head teacher's cough brought him back to reality from his fantasy.
"When we enter the town later, everyone must follow me carefully."
The head teacher solemnly pushed up his glasses, his heart full of complexities that were inconsistent with his expression.
If he had a choice, he really didn't want to take a group of children who were still in elementary school to participate in such a crowded festival.
But the school doesn't allow it.
According to the principal's wishes, the holiday is almost here anyway, and it happens to coincide with this holiday celebration, so let the children have a good time.
By the way, let them witness the exhibition match of the King of the Island on Melemele Island and experience the atmosphere of Pokémon battle in advance.
Even though the head teacher thinks it doesn't make much sense.
These children are still too young now. Even after seeing Pokémon battles, they will probably forget them all within a few days.
But...an exhibition match where the King of the Island appears...
He was looking forward to it very much.
Although it is said to be an exhibition match, everyone actually knows that exhibition matches at festivals are not very performance-oriented.
On the contrary, it pays great attention to the actual combat experience.
After all, holiday celebrations have another name - full-scale celebration!
He vaguely remembered that the trainer who was going to fight the Island King today... seemed to have come from the Yan Kingdom.
It should be... called Su Yuan, right?
...
Union time, 3:30 p.m.
Standing at the entrance of Hinoken Academy, the girl's eyes showed a trace of solemnity, which was soon replaced by her cheerful and confident smile.
"This time, there will be no problem!"
After saying that, the girl stepped into the academy.
However, the girl's extremely good figure and the back of her brown twin ponytails swaying from side to side seemed to have attracted the attention of many adolescent teenagers who were still taking physical education classes.
The sound of swallowing saliva was uniform.
"What a big Poke Ball!"
This is the only thought left in everyone's mind.
The Hinohan Academy located in Hinohan City, on the surface, looks like just a luxuriously decorated training academy. However, anyone who has lived in the Hezhong area for a while will know that it is extraordinary.
In addition to its function as a school, Hinoken Academy also functions as a "general gymnasium"!
——Hinoki Fan Gym!
However, the status of the Hinokishan Gym as both a school and a gym is destined to be different from other gyms.
The Hinoki Fan Gym does not have a very luxurious and comfortable training environment and battle venue like other gyms.
The largest playground behind the school can be used for Pokémon battles after some improvements and renovations.
Even the gym trainers of the Hinoken Gym are actually teachers who work at the Hinoki Academy.
Although "poverty" and "unprofessional" are revealed everywhere, you must know that the Hinoki Fan Gym is officially certified by the United Alliance and is recommended for new trainers to challenge for the first time!
It's not because the Hinoki Fan Gym has the lowest challenge difficulty, but because the Hinoki Fan Gym is the most suitable challenge for new trainers.
It is precisely because of being a teacher that both gym leaders and gym trainers know how to educate new trainers who have not yet had gym challenge experience.
And let them grow up quickly!
"Shuashua——"
A large number of sharp blades further compressed the duck's dodge space, flying around it to form a spiral.
The sound was harsh and noisy, like a blender stirring something.
Mingyi's aqua blue eyes were staring at the gym trainer on the other side of the field.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah..."
The gym trainer sighed helplessly, and immediately took out the red and white Poké Ball, and took back the explorer who was cornered by the vine snake.
His move undoubtedly recognized Mingyi's victory.
"If the learning ability of my students could be half as good as yours, then I would be much less worried." A smile appeared on the gym trainer's face, "Congratulations on passing the final test, Mingyi."
"call......"
After listening, Mingyi's body, which had been tense, relaxed a little.
Even though she had been in a suppressed state during the battle just now, she seemed to be fighting very easily.
In fact, Ming Yi's heart just now was not at all relaxed, on the contrary, she was still very nervous.
The actual strength of the gym trainer was stronger than she imagined.
Inexperienced...
But it’s not Mingyi’s fault.
This time, it was her second challenge to the Hinoki Fan Gym.
It was also the first time she defeated three gym trainers.
As for the scene where Ming Yi challenged the Hinoki Fan Gym for the first time two months ago...
Ahem, Mingyi said it’s okay not to mention the dark history.
She wouldn't say that she and Vine Snake were directly eliminated before they lasted two or three rounds!
Woo...
The road to becoming an excellent Pokémon trainer seems to be more difficult than I thought.
Ming Yi groaned in her heart and quickly adjusted her mentality.
But it is precisely because of this that I have to work harder!
Even if I can't become the best Pokémon trainer now, at least... I have to become as good a trainer as that person!
This is the first goal Mingyi sets.
Just like the champion of the Yanguo Alliance and the Victini Cup!
It's actually a bit incredible to say that at the beginning, Mingyi didn't really want to become a Pokémon trainer.
Rather than being a Pokémon trainer, Mingyi actually yearns to be a female star like Kaluni, the champion of Kalos.
Hmm... A star like Xiao Ju'er, the owner of Leiwen Gym, is pretty cool too.
According to Mingyi's original plan, her first target was actually Pokémon Hollywood in Liyong City.
However, the Pokémon battle broadcast on the TV station two months ago made her brain excited and embarked on the road of becoming a Pokémon trainer.
Immediately afterwards... Mingyi discovered that becoming a Pokémon trainer, traveling and growing with Pokémon, seemed to make her happier?
Even the day after she became a Pokémon trainer, she was beaten violently at the Hinoki Fan Gym (
But this is not important now!
"call......"
Mingyi let out a long breath, opened his eyes, and looked directly at the trainer opposite.
"First time we meet, my name is Heilian."
The black-haired boy straightened his tie and said, "He is the new master of the Hinoki Fan Gym."
"This is the first time we meet, my name is Ming Yi!" Ming Yi solemnly responded, "Please give me your advice!"
Oops!
What a... What a powerful aura!
He obviously looks so young.
Woo...
Am I going to lose again?
Ming·On the surface, he is as calm as an old dog, but inside he is panicking.
Mingyi:Σ(っ°Д°;)っ!!!
If you still can't beat the Hinoki Fan Gym today, then just wait until the Vine Snake evolves into the Monarch Snake before coming again!
