Leaving the spacious and damp dark cave, Xiaozhi and the others came to Route 45 outside.
This is a long and narrow wild road that combines grasslands, rocky areas, waterfalls and other areas. Not only does it inhabit a large number of Pokémon, but many elite trainers also conduct rigorous training here.
Here, it's not far from where the Silver League starts...!
"Hey, that trainer with the electric rat on his shoulder, come and fight me!"
Along the way, Xiaozhi was called this by at least five people.
Hit, hit, hit!!
Xiaozhi did not choose to run away, but focused his gaze.
Since their eyes met, it was natural to fight!
The Pokémon on Ash's body at this moment are except for one general, Pikachu.
The three are all in the second form: Fire Rock Rat, Bay Leaf, Blue Crocodile...
Galar green onion duck carrying giant onions...
The fighting-type giant beetle Heracross...
Shakiras, who is in the chrysalis state and is charging up...
Chenglong joined the team in the waters of the Whirlpool Islands...
And Dark Lugia stored in silver feathers...
...
Some people may be confused.
"Xiao Zhi, are you cheating? You actually have 9 Pokémon with you?!"
Xiaoxia, who was on the same team, couldn't help but angrily yelled.
However, Xiaozhi just shook his head and replied matter-of-factly:
"Brother Chi has a computer, so the maximum number of Pokémon I can carry is naturally 12~!"
Excluding the three Poké Balls that Brother Chi always brings out, after calculation, Ash's upper limit of Poké Balls is exactly nine.
Xiaoxia: "..."
Can I report you for cheating?
"Then before challenging the last gym, practice well, Fire Rock Rat, to make your flames more intense!"
"Blue Crocodile, use frozen teeth!!"
"Baby leaf, recall Brother Chi's all-attribute thick fat, that is your future path!"
"Lauren!!!?"
As they move forward on Route 45, the experience points of Xiaozhi and the Pokémon are also increasing rapidly...
In this way, we fought all the way until dinner time in the evening.
The sun sets in the west.
Xiaozhi dragged his tired body, and his Pokémon, whose pp value and physical strength reached the limit, officially entered the Yanmo City at the end of Route 45...
...
...
Yanmo City is a city located in the northeast corner of Chengdu.
It's more of a town than a city.
Modern high-rise buildings are not common, and they are basically traditional wooden houses.
People here also dress simply, rather than in modern suits and leather shoes.
As soon as they entered this city, the ancient and vigorous atmosphere that hit them made Xiaozhi and the others dare not be careless.
"Like Yuanzhu Town, this is also an old city..."
In the Pokémon Center in Yanmo City, Xiaozhi and the other three have handed over all their Pokémon to Miss Joy.
They were sitting around in the public lounge, waiting for their Pokémon to recover.
"Xiao Zhi, the last Yanmo Gym is said to be the most difficult gym in the entire city. You can't be careless..."
Xiaogang looked at the map and said seriously.
Don't look at Liu Bo from the Kaji Gym next door, his strength seems to be incomparable.
However, even if trainers who challenge Kaji Gym lose, as long as their performance reaches Liu Bo's standards, they can still obtain badges.
It's different in Yanmo Gym.
Yanmo Gym trainer Xiao Chun will never let his opponent win, or even let him get a badge.
It is said that the badge has not been handed over for a long time.
Many people choose to give up Yanmo Gym and challenge other gyms with lower difficulty.
"Xiao Chun is a very cold and beautiful person...ahem, a powerful trainer with a cold personality."
Xiaogang said seriously.
Dragon-type Pokémon are inherently powerful.
The same is true for dragon attribute gyms.
Although in the past few years, the neighboring Kalos region has officially announced fairy attributes, making many dragon-type Pokémon the joke of buffoons.
But in the Johto area, dragon-type Pokémon are still extremely powerful.
...
"Of course I know this."
Xiaozhi nodded and touched the silver feather pendant on his collar with his palm.
Once you hold it, you feel as comfortable as if your whole body is immersed in the sea.
"Ah~"
This made Xiaozhi groan.
His little Lugia's dark state seems to be irreversible in this life.
More than a month has passed, and it is still the dark form with dragon + ghost attributes, instead of the flying + superpower attributes of ordinary Lugia.
Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with my brain for the time being.
It's just that little Lugia has extraordinary qualifications and his strength is developing rapidly.
Because its appearance and identity were so unique, Xiaozhi did not dare to put it outside and fight casually with passerby trainers.
For fear of arousing other people's criminal psychology, he immediately became Team Rocket.
But if they are gym trainers with professional training, they can be sent out to fight normally.
The dragon-type Lugia and the dragon-type gym restrain each other...!
Xiaozhi is going to use it as his trump card in this challenge!
Next to her, Xiaoxia followed suit and touched her own Poseidon bracelet.
"Ah~"
The same vast and comfortable breath of the sea came to her face and enveloped her, causing Xiaoxia to close her eyes and let out a moan.
Comfortable~
Xiaogang: "..."
He felt isolated.
While staying in Asakusa City with Ami, Xiaogang did not step into the Whirlpool Islands, nor did he receive a gift from his mother Lugia.
But he has no regrets!!
...
...
late at night.
Yanmo Gym.
Behind the Yanmo Gym is a spacious lake surface, connected to a cliff.
A rather turbulent waterfall flew down from the cliff.
And through the waterfall, reaching the end, is the Dragon's Cave that has been handed down from ancient times in Yanmo City!
It is said that in ancient times, when humans did not exist in Yanmo City, many Pokémon gathered here.
They have various attributes and live together in a messy way.
They have different habits and temperaments, which makes them disobedient to each other and often fight with each other.
At this time, one of the old Pokémon stood up and said loudly:
"At the end of the waterfall, there is a legendary blessed land. Whoever can cross the waterfall first will be the king among us!"
As it spoke, it raised its finger again and pointed at one of the Pokémon.
"Except Squirtle, of course."
"Jenny Jenny?"
It’s so unfair that Squirtle, who represents the water attribute, crosses the waterfall.
It's really frustrating.
Finally, a dragon-type Pokémon stood up, successfully crossed the waterfall, and led the Pokémon into the blessed land.
It is water resistant.
Since then, Dragon-type Pokémon has been considered by the public to be the strongest attribute.
The blessed land behind this waterfall has also become the Dragon's Cave.
...
At this moment, late at night.
Outside the Dragon's Cave, a woman with blue hair tied into a slender ponytail was slowly approaching.
Wearing a blue tights, short-sleeved shorts, blue boots, and a red and black cloak on the back.
