Dawn of Pokémon

My name is Yusa Shintaro, I am ten years old and a new trainer from Joban City.

I was born in an ordinary family with ordinary parents. I started my journey as a trainer in an ordinary way on January [-]st this year.Now I am living an ordinary study life in a not-so-ordinary college.

A while ago, Senior Kazuhiko had a heart-to-heart talk with me.It's incredible. Although I was so scared and sad before, my mood became lighter after the conversation.As expected, senior is a very powerful person.

...Although what I drank seemed to be second-hand chicken soup.

Anyway, I don't want to wallow in depression anymore.You can't let senior stop and wait for me, right?

Besides...

The first priority now is to pass the midterm exam, QAQ.

[May [-], [-], [-]:[-] noon, Konglu Red/District, Guanghui College teaching building]

When the crisp bell rang, the brown-haired boy fell down on the table and let out a wail.

"Ah ah ah I'm going to fail..."

The girl in the back seat who was in charge of collecting the papers gave Shintaro a look of complete sympathy. Still under Shintaro's pitiful gaze, she snatched away the answer sheet that he had not yet finished writing and jumped to hand it over to the invigilator.

Fortunately, Shintaro was not the only one who wanted to cry without tears, and there was even more than one who actually cried - under the torture of the perverted test questions that Guanghui Academy used to do, there were only a few people who could stay calm.

"Shintaro, how did you do in the exam... Well, your expression has already given me the answer." Class monitor Ryuno Fusuke, who came from the other end of the classroom, burst into laughter when he saw Shintaro's half-dead look. .Realizing that his behavior made the brown-haired boy even more teary-eyed, Fuusuke quickly patted Shintaro on the back, "It's okay, the question this time is indeed too difficult. I think everyone has not finished answering the question, maybe they have passed." The line is only twenty points."

"..." Shintaro still kept the posture of bending over the desk and crying, and raised his hand tremblingly to point to his deskmate next to him.

"?" Fusuke looked at the well-behaved Chinatsu Ito, and then at Shintaro, "What?"

"Chinatsu-chan, she finished answering the questions half an hour early..." Shintaro was furious.

Feng Jie: "..."

Looking at the helpless girl with evasive eyes and "Did I do something wrong" written all over her face, Fousuke could only put on a kind smile.

And suddenly felt that he should cry with Shintaro.

"Okay, okay, why are you two grown men hurting here?" The orange-haired girl with twin tails put an iron palm on the backs of Shintaro and Fuusuke, "Isn't it just a midterm exam? Nothing to worry about."

Shintaro grinned and turned back, "So... Nana-kun, you did well in the exam?"

"No, I can get ten points at most." Nana said loudly with pride.

Shintaro: "..."

Feng Jie: "..."

A true warrior.

The two teenagers looked at Nana with eyes filled with admiration.

"Compared with that -" Nana shook her small notepad, "I care more about the content of this additional test. No matter what, I can't find out, it's really distressing."

Additional exams are one of the traditional projects of Guanghui College. Additional exams are arranged for the midterm and final exams of each semester. The content of the exams is different, but most of them are practical.As long as you pass an additional test while studying in the academy, you can officially put on the snow-white windbreaker of the Shining Society, become a member of the red group, and start receiving tasks from the headquarters.Students of Guanghui Academy are not allowed to leave Kongriku during the semester, but if they are also members of the Red Team, it is common for them to leave Kongriku to perform tasks.

Everyone here aims to join the Radiant Society.Compared with traditional midterm exams, most of them are more concerned about additional exams that will give them a chance to become regular students.

"Oh, I know the content of the additional test." Feng Jie scratched his head and said calmly.

"...Huh?" Nana was stunned for a few seconds before reacting, and immediately stared at the blue-haired boy, "What did you say? How did you know??"

"I met Mr. Divi on the road this morning when I was going to school. I asked him casually and he told me." Feng Jie blinked innocently.

Nana: "..."

Nana, who has been specialized in collecting intelligence for 100 years, never expected that such an operation would be possible, but now it was not the time to worry about her failure to obtain the intelligence. She immediately asked, "What is the content?"

"Freely form a team and compete with the members of the Red Team. The winner can become an official member of the Red Team."

Fuusuke's narration made the expressions of the other three people stiffen in unison.

"...Are you kidding me?"

[May [-], [-], [-]:[-] pm, Konglu Red/District, Guanghui College teaching building]

When all the first-year students gathered in the open space in front of the door, Noya, the manager of the red group, announced the exam content to everyone.

Facts have proved that the information Feng Jie got from Divi was indeed correct - the test method is for students to form teams freely to find the red group members hidden throughout the campus and start a battle with them.The number of Akagumi members will be half that of the student side, so even the first graders have a chance to win.

Fortunately, it's not a battle of even numbers, otherwise we would really lose our resolve.The frightened Shintaro thought so.

After the big team disbanded, Nana took the still confused Chinatsu and immediately joined Shintaro and Fuusuke.The four of them usually work together, so when faced with such a free team test, they naturally want the most familiar partner.

"According to my analysis, this exam tests a total of two things: team combat ability and investigation ability." As a person who has always been responsible for information integration and analysis, Nana began to reason with ease, "The official member of the Red Team is hiding Our team consists of four people in every corner of the Glorious Academy, so we first need to find two members before we start fighting them.”

"Reconnaissance..." Feng Jie, who specializes in defense, was obviously not very good at this. He frowned and looked around in distress, "I wonder where the official members are hiding... eh."

Hearing his sudden interruption of his words, the other three people turned their heads to look in confusion, their expressions froze on their faces.

"Hide?" The visitor pinched his throat strangely and made an uncomfortable sharp voice, "What are you talking about? Why do we have to hide? Who are you?"

"...Luke." Shintaro's body tensed up and he whispered.

The two people who appeared in front of them were both wearing snow-white windbreakers, and they were obviously official members of the Red Group of the Guanghui Association.Although he had never seen the silent young man beside him, Shintaro would never forget the appearance of the boy with short brown and red hair who was laughing maliciously.When he was a freshman, he was targeted by this member named Luke because he obtained Divi's credentials.Although Takeuchi Kazuhiko came forward to fight him off at the time, but now that Kazuhiko is no longer in the red/zone, Luke must be here to regain the situation.

"No more nonsense. Let me tell you plainly, I just don't like you, and now I'm here to take revenge." Luke grinned, his fluctuating tone full of malice, "There is no senior to protect you this time. Don’t be so scared that you kneel down and beg for mercy, kid?”

When Nana heard this, she suddenly understood.It seems that this dangerous-looking member of the Red Team is Luke Jerome, who once had a problem with Shintaro. It is said that Shintaro suffered a lot at that time.

Thinking this, Nana turned her worried eyes to Shintaro - and then almost burst out laughing.

"Chinatsu-chan, although he is quite fierce, don't be afraid. They happen to be two people, which saves us the effort of finding someone." Seeing that the yellow-haired curly girl seemed timid, Shintaro quickly offered words of comfort. He stood up and said, "Unfortunately, this exam is a Pokémon battle, and your bombs cannot be used for the time being... It doesn't matter, the Pokémon battle does not require our trainers to directly participate, and it is much safer!"

He was so preoccupied with racking his brains to think of words to calm his teammates that he actually ignored Luke for a moment.

The veins on the brown-red-haired boy's forehead suddenly jumped one by one. The transparent armor covering his arms seemed to feel the owner's anger and began to squirm creepily.However, before Luke was so angry that he lost his mind, the young man on the side grabbed his arm.

"The two of us are your opponents this time." Bordo had a headache and suppressed Luke who wanted to fight if they disagreed. "How about it, do you accept the fight?"

The four students looked at each other.

"Well... I have fought against one of them before, and it was really difficult to deal with." Shintaro thought for a while and said truthfully.However, although he looked a little embarrassed, his eyes were calm and there was no hint of panic at all, "So do we want to accept the battle?"

Nana and Fousuke looked at each other and smiled, and gave a firm answer together.

"Of course!"

After the two sides took their positions in the empty training ground, the battle began.

Luke stared at the weak brown-haired boy opposite, his eyes full of anger.Takeuchi Kazuhiko's intervention had already made him extremely angry, and just now, this boy's disregard for him had made his patience reach its limit.

He vowed to teach this nasty guy a lesson.

The boy winked at his partner and immediately received a slight nod from Bordo in response.He laughed expectantly, his eyes locked on the referee's hand holding the flag.

Before the words "game begins" could be said, Luke and Bordo had already thrown their Poké Balls at the same time.Along with the white light, there was a sky full of sand and dust - the Scorpion King's sandstorm move had already been released at the same moment of appearance.The yellow sand instantly swallowed up all the trainer's field of vision, and Bordo's vine monster stretched out countless green-lighting energy tentacles, spreading towards the opposite side of the field like crawling snakes.

Sandstorm and ultimate absorption are their usual starting moves. Inexperienced trainers will be immediately defeated by their moves, and then quickly lose.Luke pricked up his ears in pleasure, hoping to hear the exclamations and desperate sighs coming from the other side, but the first thing that rushed into his five senses was a green storm.

That is the grass type's ultimate move, Flying Leaf Storm.

The small beautiful flowers danced lightly in the sandstorm, and endless flying leaves poured out and spiraled up, blocking the erosion of the sand and dust.And Fousuke's big-mouthed baby's movements were not slow at all. The pink light spots of the fairy wind merged with the flying leaf storm, cutting off all the soft energy tentacles like a hard shield.

"I'll show you the way, electromagnetic gun!" Nana's clear voice tore through the noise caused by the sandstorm. The polygon beast's body flashed with electric light, and it threw an energy ball with electromagnetic power into the depths of the yellow sand.This is certainly not a matter of luck - Luke is not the only one who will take the lead in the first second of the game. As early as the moment the pokeballs of both sides are opened, Porygon uses a locking move.

There was no need for the girl to say anything else, Shintaro knew exactly what he should do.

"Water arrow turtle, water cannon!"

Behind the aqua giant turtle, the gun barrel pointed in the direction of the electromagnetic gun's flight.Dark blue water jets shot out from it, like the largest high-pressure water pump in the hands of firefighters, tearing apart the fragile sand and dust, and hiding the instigator in the middle.

The sandstorm stopped.The Scorpio King lay on the ground wet, unable to stand up for a moment.

Luke stared blankly across the way.The faces of the four people are all young, even childish, but their eyes are calm and bright, full of solemnity towards this game, and there is no trace of hatred or panic in them.

The boy's expression changed.

[May 33, [-], [-]:[-] pm, Konglu Red/Zone, Guanghui Academy Training Ground]

The four students were all at a loss when facing the messy battlefield.

"So...does this count as passing? Or does it fail?" Shintaro scratched his head.

At the end of the battle, both sides had only one Pokémon left.The Scorpion King launched a devastating guillotine, but the Blastoise withstood the pressure and ended the battle with a freezing punch - both sides lost the ability to fight at the same time, resulting in a draw.

"I really don't remember whether Teacher Noya mentioned the tie issue..." Nana puffed up her cheeks, "But Shintaro-san, you did a good job with the last move! I thought I was going to lose."

"Hehe, it's just good luck..."

On the other side, the boy with short brown-red hair lowered his head, and the finger bones he clenched tightly made a squeaking sound.The laughter and laughter coming from the opposite side sounded to him like the roar of monsters, which made the anger in his heart rise little by little, and finally lit a fire.

After taking back the unconscious vine monster, Bordo realized that something seemed wrong with his partner's mood.However, his action was half a beat late. Luke, with red eyes, had already raised his right hand - on his arm, the translucent armor had suddenly transformed into the shape of a cannon muzzle, and the gray-white light was ready to go, aiming. unsuspecting students.

"Wait……"

"Luke-kun, calm down."

Before Bordo spoke, a soft girl's voice intervened.One hand gently covered Luke's spar cannon, as if trying to block the launch of this dangerous weapon with his thin body.

Seeing the appearance of the person in front of him, Luke was immediately frightened. He hurriedly turned his arms and shot a squib in the sky. He stumbled and almost fell down, "No, Teacher Noya..."

Just kidding, if he accidentally hurts Noah Elvis, wouldn't his master who always dotes on her—or Mr. Bai Ye, the top manager of the Shining Society—could crush him to death?Luke felt frightened just thinking about it, and he no longer dared to get angry. He bowed down and bowed his head to the girl in a polite manner.

"Long time no see, you are still so naughty." Noya smiled helplessly, patting Luke's shoulder lightly, "If you use the crystal cannon too frequently, it will have adverse effects on your body. A good influence. Don’t do this again, okay?”

"...Well, I understand. I'm sorry." Luke blushed a little, lowered his head and said.

"Classmates." The girl with long flaxen hair clapped her hands, and after seeing the four of them looking at her obediently, she showed them a gentle smile, "Congratulations on passing this additional test. From now on, you are He is now a formal member of the Red Group of the Guild of Light."

"Really?" Shintaro's eyes widened in surprise.

"Awesome! I originally wanted to say that losing this time was worth it." Nana immediately jumped for joy and pulled Chinatsu around in a 720-degree circle. As a result, both of them squatted on the ground dizzy. The mosquito coils on his face made Feng Jie couldn't help but laugh.

"You passed the additional examination just six months after entering school. I have to say that your performance is outstanding. I am also very happy to see talented young people like you joining the Society of Light." Noya approached with a smile, making her voice even louder. It was clearly transmitted to the ears of four people.

"The midterm exam is over. You will have a few days off. Please use this time to recharge your batteries and be fully prepared -"

"Perhaps, you will receive your first mission soon.
