The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

Afterwards, the group met a fat girl with a Farfetch'd and a Mimikyu in a forest. Her name was Ningning, and she was also a Pokémon performer who was going to participate in the Triple Crown Satellite Tournament. She would be one of Serena's future competitors.

A few days later, they met a dragon protection team composed of three children on the way. They helped to send the dragon that got lost in the lake back to the seaside to reunite with its companions.

After seeing off the dragon, Xiaozhi and his group walked along the seashore and came to the rocky coast near Route 8.

The terrain here is interesting, with the steep terrain above the high cliffs contrasting with the wide sandy beach below.

Here, the group met a couple of underwater archaeology researchers, Eddie and Lingji.

They came here to investigate the luxury cruise ship "Casla" which hit an iceberg and sank long, long ago.

Many people in the academic community were puzzled as to why the Kasra, which sank so far from the rocky coast, would appear on the seabed of the rocky coast.

Eddie and Lingji believed that there were many ocean currents converging nearby, and the passenger ship was brought here by the ocean currents. They came here today to find the location of the Casla.

After diving into the seabed in a submarine, Lingji avoided the ocean currents with her superb driving skills, and then followed a group of wild lava and poisonous algae dragons and successfully found the location of the Casla.

It was unexpected that many Pokémon gathered on the Kasra and used it as their residence.

Therefore, Eddie and Lingji also gave up the investigation. They did not want to disturb the peaceful lives of these wild Pokémon.

After leaving the rocky coast, Xiaozhi and his friends watched a Pokémon show by Aledo and a shiny wrestling hawkman in the next town.

This is the Ultra Pokémon Battle Show that is currently being well received throughout the Kalos region and is directed by the troupe's leader, Carl.

Simply put, it is a stage play in which Pokémon fight according to a script.

A few days later, Xiaozhi and his friends arrived at a town.

At this moment, Xiaozhi could hardly contain his excitement, because in this town there was a luxurious restaurant opened by the famous chef Shimi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Kalos region.

Shimi is one of the four kings of the Kalos region. He is good at using water-type Pokémon and he is also an excellent cook.

In order to leave a lasting impression on the Pokémon battles that are so important to him, he will devote himself to the battles.

In the back kitchen of the restaurant, Zhimi was cooking. The restaurant manager walked in quickly, leaned close to Zhimi's ear and told Zhimi that someone was coming to challenge him.

Shimi smiled, turned off the stove, walked out of the kitchen, went to her room to change into her usual clothes, and walked to the table of Xiaozhi and his group.

"Welcome, I'm Shimi."

Seeing Shimi coming, Xiaozhi smiled slightly, stood up, stretched out his hand towards him, and said,

"I'm Xiaozhi from Pallet Town, and I want to try your hidden menu."

"So you are Xiaozhi, I understand, but this menu is not so sweet."

“I just like this kind of food.”

"Okay, I accept your challenge."

Serena and Yurika beside them were already extremely excited.

"Oh my god, it's really Mr. Shimi, the real person!"

"Come and watch the game together, everyone." Zhimi said with a smile.

Following Shimi, Xiaozhi and his group walked straight to the back of the restaurant, which turned out to be a particularly large arena. The flat fighting field was surrounded by seats that could accommodate large numbers of spectators.

From this we can see that Shimi is very martial, because he is the king of water, and this is his home court, so he can design the battle field as a large pool, similar to the water field, with a few floating boards on it.

This was the case with many water gyms before. Although gym trainers cannot replace Pokémon according to the rules, the venue is favorable to gym trainers.

"Okay, Xiaozhi, I have a question for you. Do you think Pokémon battles can be called art?" Shimi asked.

"I think Pokémon battling can be considered an art."

"Yes, I think so too.

Cooking is an art of timing, and so is Pokémon battles.

Even if you win a big victory, the sweet memory will eventually fade away with time. Being able to immerse yourself in the joy of fighting for your entire life is an art in itself.

Very good, then let's start the battle, go ahead, Blastoise."

"Water Arrow!"

This Blastoise is level 100, with the Rain Pan attribute. When it rains, it will recover one sixteenth of its maximum HP at the end of each round.

"Charizard, it's up to you to decide. Prepare to come out and fight."

"Ugh!"

Shimi directly sent out his strongest trump card, the Blastoise. This Blastoise had a mega evolution stone tied on its forehead, and it was obviously a Mega Blastoise.

And Xiaozhi also directly sent out Charizard to fight.

"Now, let's begin the battle between Shimi from the Four Heavenly Kings and Satoshi from the Pallet Town.

There is only one Pokémon that can be used. When one of the Pokémon loses its combat ability, the game ends.

Neither party can replace Pokémon."

The restaurant manager, who temporarily served as the referee, announced.

"Excuse me, even though you know I can use Water-type Pokémon, will you still use Fire-type Pokémon?" Shimi asked.

"That's right, because I want to defeat all the strong ones together with Charizard. I sent Charizard to fight against the Four Heavenly Kings and regional champions that I met before." Xiaozhi said.

"That's it, I know."

"Then now, the battle begins!"

"Very good, let's go for it. Let's go all out from the start, Charizard.

I take the name of Xiaozhi, and use the bond as a guide, respond to my heart, the keystone of evolution, transcend evolution, super evolution, fire-breathing dragon, mega evolution! "

"Ugh!"

With a roar, Mega Charizard Y makes a grand appearance!

The characteristic sunlight is activated, changing the weather on the field to sunny.

"It's really reliable. The way he puts all his effort into the Pokémon battle is like art. I really hope to surpass it." Shimi praised.

"Let me see the strength of the Four Heavenly Kings. Charizard, use Heat Wind."

"Let's serve the appetizer first and use the water cannon to fire continuously."

On a sunny day, the power of water-based skills is directly halved, which is equivalent to having only twice the effect on Charizard, while fire-based skills have a 1.5 times power bonus. Therefore, Xiaozhi is not afraid of the opponent's water-based skills at all.

The Charizard flapped its wings and created a powerful hot wind that instantly covered the entire field.
