Chapter 27 Chapter 27 Intelligence Collection
"The next time I come to challenge you, I will take the Charcoal Badge from your hands!"

Zhenyong's first challenge against the owner of the Heijin Gymnasium, Piaota, failed.

But the challenger was not discouraged. On the contrary, this failure seemed to make him more confident in his next challenge.

……

"This battle is still worth seeing..."

Riolu in the stands nodded slightly.

The guy named Zhenyong does have two brushes.

Whether it is the investigation of the intelligence of the opponent you are about to face before the battle, or the decisive command arrangement for Pokémon during the battle...

In addition to ordering the Kirby to resist the damage, it is also necessary to exchange for the big nose. Riolu is a little bit unsightly.

If it is the decision made by the Snorby himself—whether it is fighting against the attribute, fighting against rocks, and the big nose of the steel attribute; Really brave this guy gets along well with his Pokémon.

However, these orders seem to be arranged by the trainer.

This is...

Riolu is observing, reviewing, and learning some strategies and tactics used by trainers in this world.

Zhenyong, who was still fighting against the gymnasium owner just now, has already walked to the stands.

Zhenyong, who came to the stands, immediately spotted Mr. Gunten.

After all, even in the Pokémon world of this time period, it is quite eye-catching for a human being to appear in a public place with three Pokémon—three Pokémon that are not in the Poké Ball.

"Hello there!"

Riolu turned around.

Humbly and politely saying hello to Mr. Gunten, it was Zhenyong who was attracted by them as soon as he came to the stands.

With the permission of Mr. Gunten.

Zhenyong sat next to him.

Sitting or lying around Mr. Gunten are three Pokémon-Two-Tailed Hand, Strong Chicken, and Riolu.

Simple greetings express the respect that the trainers of the juniors have for the seniors.

Zhenyong is not one to beat around the bush.

"Senior Gunten, I'll just say it straight..."

Zhenyong stretched out his hand and pointed to the three Pokémon:
"Senior's Pokémon lineup is good, a normal-attributed twin-tailed monster arm; a rare fighting-type Pokémon Riolu; and a rare one in the Sinnoh area, with dual-attributes of fighting and fire Strong chicken..."

"A lineup like this is almost a rock-type Pokémon that perfectly restrains the owner of the Black Gold Gym."

"Aren't seniors going to try it?"

"Or……"

"Senior has already obtained the Carboniferous Badge?"

Mr. Gang Teng was taken aback by Zhenyong's question, and explained with a wry smile:

"Where where..."

"I'm ashamed to say, but at my age, I haven't even been able to get a gym badge..."

"As for these three Pokémon..."

Mr. Gunten looked down at the three and shook his head slightly:

"Only this two-tailed monster hand is my registered Pokémon, and the other Riolu and Strong Chicken are still free."

"Oh?"

Zhenyong glanced at the three Pokémon.

Riolu stood in front of Li Zhuang Chicken calmly, covering his brave eyes.

Can understand human language, Riolu is afraid that this guy is some so-called "poker club", or something else-you know, these days, the "precious" attribute of strong chickens is for them It brought a lot of trouble.

Zhenyong, who aspires to become the greatest trainer, also has a keen intuition far beyond his peers.

Having an intuition is not only in the battle of Pokémon, it provides him with great convenience.

Even in daily life, it also plays a role from time to time.

Just like now.

Zhenyong was keenly aware of Riolu's cautious attitude and slightly defensive little moves.

Zhenyong quickly waved his hand:

"Don't get me wrong, although Riolu and Strong Chicken are very rare Pokémon..."

"But I don't think much of them -- at least right now."

"On the contrary, I am very interested in Mr. Gunten's two-tailed monster."

Saying that, Zhenyong stood up and said solemnly:

"Let me formally introduce myself."

"My name is Zhenyong."

"It's a rookie who just decided to be a trainer!"

"My goal is to use Pokémon with normal attributes to reach the highest peak of the trainer!"

Zhenyong smiled and blinked:
"So, although the fighting attributes of Riolu and Strong Chicken have a considerable advantage in the next challenge to the head of the Black Gold Gym."

"But at least I am safe for you."

On the contrary, Mr. Gunten raised his eyelids curiously:

"Oh?"

"So, do you plan to continue to challenge the owner of the Black Gold Gym, Piaotai?"

Zhenyong nodded decisively:

"Of course!"

"This is the first gym I have encountered!"

"If I don't get the charcoal badge in my hand, won't I leave a big regret on the road of Pokémon training master?"

"Hahaha--"

"Sure enough, he is a young man with drive!"

"When I was young, I was no worse than you!"

Mr Gunten laughed.

Zhenyong sat next to Mr. Gunten again:
"This is the first time I've challenged the owner of the museum."

"Actually, I mainly came here with the purpose of learning from him and detecting intelligence."

"I never thought that a challenge would be successful."

"Didn't something unexpected happen during this challenge?"

"I thought that after solving Da Chao Bei Bi, the winning rate would be higher..."

"I didn't expect the owner of the Black Gold Gym to own a rare ancient Pokémon..."

"Mr. Gunten is a famous senior nearby."

"In just a few days since I've been here, I've already heard a lot of trainers talk about your Excellency."

"Mr. Gunten must know more about the owner of the Black Gold Gym."

Zhenyong looked at Mr. Gunten expectantly with wide eyes.

Mr. Gunten smiled wryly and shook his head:

"What about 'famous seniors'..."

"'Senior' me, but I haven't gotten even a gym badge yet!"

Mr. Gunten is indeed old, and he seems to take a lot of things lightly.

"But the information you want to know, I can tell you a little bit."

"This is what I know too, all the information about Piaota..."

Then, Mr. Gang Teng told Zhenyong about his experience of using the earthen turtle against Piaotai last time.

"If Bankiras wasn't the last one to appear on the stage... Maybe I would really have a chance to get the badge that time."

Mr. Gunten finished his story with a little aftertaste.

Zhenyong at the side immediately took out his notebook and recorded it.

While recording, he frowned and thought:

"Apart from ancient Pokémon... there is also a moving disaster—Vankyras..."

"Gym masters, you really have countless cards..."
