After a night's rest, the three people who walked out of the Elf Center again looked radiant.
After walking in the muddy wetland all day, taking a hot bath to rest at night is definitely the ultimate relaxing experience!
And today they did not go to the most famous observation tower in Nohara City.
After all, I have walked around the Great Wetland myself. What’s the point of just looking at it from a distance?
Originally, today's plan was to spend a day in the city, but after the reform of the gorgeous contest, Xiaoguang is now more and more eager to improve himself and become stronger, and eagerly drags Xiaozhi to open Xiaozao Special.
I just happened to have a new partner - Ye Yibu, so I took the time to get used to it so that I could challenge Nohara Gym.
"The leader of the Nohara Gym is Mr. Yoshikori, and he seems to be a professional wrestler."
Xiaozhi looked at the information in the illustrated book in his hand, especially the photo of Ji Xian. He was a rugged and strong man with thick muscular limbs.
It seems to be somewhat similar to Ah Si from Azure Gym.
As for the Pokémon, they are all water-type Pokémon. They are all common elves in the Sinnoh region, and there is nothing special about them.
"I prefer to enjoy the atmosphere of fierce battles, so don't take battles too seriously~!"
In particular, the illustrated book also found an interview with Ji Xian, which was quite casual and made Xiaozhi secretly memorize it.
Well, don't take it too seriously, Gym Leader.
Although he has a rough body, he looks carefree and happy in the video. It seems that the difficulty of this gym battle should not be too high.
Even the newly conquered Yeyibu can appear on the stage.
Xiaoguang had already taken out the illustrated book and looked at the moves Ye Yibu had mastered.
"Flying leaves and sharp swords, sword dance, leaf blade slashing"
Leafee is a rare physical attack-oriented existence among grass-type Pokémon, especially this Leafee's moves look very violent.
"The level is not low. There is no need to cultivate it from scratch."
Xiaozhi commented from the side that it seemed that he had been living alone in the wetland for a while and was not the kind of Yeib who had just completed his evolution.
Then he released his forest turtle with his backhand and stood at one end of the training ground.
"Come over, Xiaoguang, and try Ye Yibu's power next."
Just in time, he also needs to adjust the status of the forest turtle, and he can also appear during the inspection battle at the Nohara Gym.
The last time it was defeated by Mikri's Ancient Coelacanth, it exposed many problems of the forest turtle.
Xiaoguang nodded and raised his hand:
"Ye Yibu, use Leaf Blade to Cut!!"
Ye Yibu understood, and immediately jumped up, his leaf-like tail instantly extended into a sharp green blade, and slashed down heavily.
"Block it down and use Shrink Shell!"
Xiaozhi chose a defensive strategy, but the forest turtle obviously could not completely retract its head into the body like Squirtle, and remained standing in place.
However, the surface of the body glowed with a burst of red light as defense increased.
Bang bang!!
The leaf blade fell on the forest turtle's head, and the strong force caused the latter to jump forward.
The flexible movements and strong strength made Xiaoguang very happy.
But the forest turtle quickly recovered, his eyes were solemn and firm, and he immediately adjusted his body shape and prepared for the next move.
The training continued until the afternoon, and several people who had replenished their condition came to the Nohara Gym this time.
From the outside, Nohara Gym looks like a normal gym building, nothing unusual.
However, when you officially enter the interior, you can find that the fighting venue of the gym is somewhat similar to the previous Michaeli Cup stage.
In the middle is a wide pool, with a few random stone pillars protruding from the water to support Pokémon who cannot swim.
"It's this arena again!"
Xiaozhi's eyes suddenly became fiery. The last time the forest turtle was placed in this kind of environment, he must overcome it this time!
However, he still suppressed the flames of war for the time being. The first battle today was against Xiaoguang.
At this moment, a figure was already standing at the other end of the pool, with his back to them.
Then he suddenly turned around, raised his arms and shouted, his voice echoing loudly in the indoor venue:
"Boys and girls, I've been waiting for you for a long time! The arena is calling us!!"
This fiery aura made Xiaozhi and the others stunned for a moment. This must be the owner of the hall, Ji Xian, right?
However, Ji Xian was seen with his upper body bare, revealing his strong and thick arms, chest and abdominal muscles. His lower body was wearing a pair of black and blue tights and a pair of brown leather boots.
There is a mask on his big round head, which just hides his loneliness.
With only a few striped masks, almost the entire head was exposed. He looked like a strong man with a short haircut and a beard on his cheeks.
"I am Yoshiken, the gym leader with the water attribute. You all just come over here!!"
Although Yoshiken is the master of the water attribute gym, his tone is as hot as a flame, shouting loudly that he will fight as soon as he meets.
"I am Xiaoguang from Futaba Town, and I want to challenge the Nohara Gym!"
Xiaoguang took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and slowly stood on the other side of the pool and answered.
In order not to be embarrassed in front of her mother in the future, she must now go all out to become stronger.
"Nice eyes, then I accept your challenge!"
Ji Xian raised his arms as enthusiastically as if he were fighting in a ring.
Seeing this, Xiaozhi and Xiaogang naturally walked to the spectator seats aside and waited eagerly for the start of the game.
A referee man soon walked over next to him. He looked much thinner, but he was also wearing a mask that "covered his loneliness."
"Then the challenge rule of Nohara Gym is 2v2. If both elves lose their fighting ability, the winner will be determined!"
The referee spoke.
Generally speaking, gym battles are 3v3, not to mention that Nohara Gym is considered a late-stage gym.
However, Ji Xian is very casual about fighting, as long as the fight is vigorous, the number should be small.
"Then let's fight my first battle!!"
Ji Xian shouted loudly and took the lead in throwing a Poké Ball.
boom!
A red light flashed, and it was a blue-green sea hare, with a slug-like body falling on the water, its body and feet wriggling.
The color combination of the blue body and the green back just happens to belong to the manatee beast east of Tianguan Mountain.
"Please, Yeyibu!!"
Seeing this, Xiaoguang didn't hesitate at all and decisively sent Ye Yibu, who had just conquered the team.
Manatee is a water + ground type Pokémon, and the combination of attributes is very tricky, but the grass attribute is a huge weakness.
"Buy"
The red light fell, and Ye Yibu slowly landed on a stone platform, looking calmly at the opposite side.
