Dual-career Pokémon trainer

The battle field in the backyard of Kamae Gym.

Different from other gyms with their carefully constructed buildings and grounds.

In order not to trouble the alliance too much, Mura did not apply for a lot of funds to build gyms and venues.

So the so-called Kamae Gym is just a slightly larger wooden building.

And the battlefield is not suitable for fighting Fire-type Pokémon.

It's just the most common, ordinary battlefield.

No, it's actually very suitable for Fire-type Pokémon.

I looked up at the sky, and it was clearly covered by white clouds.

But Lin Jing could still feel the temperature around him that made him sweat.

Although it is not a sunny day, the surrounding environment's blessing on Fire-type Pokémon is probably not much different from that of sunny weather.

In a sense, this is a Grass-type Pokémon that receives more bonuses from sunny weather.

If we fight in this environment, not only will we not have any advantage, but our combat effectiveness will probably be affected by the high temperature we are not used to.

"It may seem ordinary, but it is actually a fire-based battlefield that directly utilizes the surrounding volcanic environment."

Judging from the actual effect of this building on the battlefield, Lin Jing couldn't help but sigh.

Suddenly I understand why Mura built the Kamae Gym here.

In addition to being convenient for retirement, this kind of environment suitable for Fire-type Pokémon to fight and even practice is extremely rare.

"Hahaha, you figured it out.

Well, since you've already given your Pokémon in advance.

I can't let myself be underestimated by a challenger like you.

They will be your next opponents."

As he spoke, Mura had already thrown out three Poké Balls that looked old but clean and translucent.

Three white lights flashed, and Mura's three Pokémon appeared directly in front of Lin Jing.

It was as black as a round disc with red light flashing from a coal stove.

The front theme has cream-colored hair similar to that of Arcanine's tail and neck, while the back has blue-green fur of Infernape.

besides...

"Windspeed?!"

"Wang Woo!"

Seeing the last Pokémon appear, Lin Jing and Arcanine exclaimed at the same time.

Even without wind, it seems like hair is running and fluttering in the wind.

The cream-colored tail is so long and big that it can be used as a quilt.

The main color is orange, and the fur looks more majestic after being embellished with inky black stripes.

Of course, there are also those familiar yet unfamiliar triangular eyes.

That’s right, the last one that Mura showed was also a Windy Dog.

"Haha, that's right.

Don't forget, this is a fire-type gym.

Although Arcanine is rare, this old friend of mine is not bad either."

Looking at the surprise of Lin Jing and his Pokémon, Mura seemed very happy and laughed.

However, this is different from a certain furry guy who always likes to rua as an interactive action.

Mura's wind speed dog nodded slightly.

This is quite different from Lin Jing's big dog.

There is no aggressive and majestic look.

It feels a bit like warm and fluffy sunshine.

It looks so tempting... No, it's really hot.

I felt a burning desire to fight next to me.

Lin Jing was so surprised that she didn't even need to look back.

Even without saying a word, Lin Jing could guess what the big dog next to her was thinking.

"Haha, it seems like you really like this opponent.

So...how about we save our respective Windy Dogs for last?"

"Ooooooh! (No problem!)"

Although Windy had spoken first, Lin Jing still expressed his opinion which didn't seem so important now.

"Of course, if there were no special changes along the way, Arcanine would have been my last choice."

Diamond and Togekiss also looked at each other, and finally gave each other the same look.

When they saw there was also a Windy Hound on the opposite side, they guessed the result.

There's no way, this opponent is really very attractive to Windy Dog.

“Okay, Grandpa!

How long are you going to talk?

Hurry up, the battle is about to begin!"

Yasha, who had already held the flags and even stood in the referee's seat for a long time, finally couldn't help her increasingly excited heart, and kept waving the two small flags in her hands.

“Referee Asha, we are about to enter a sacred gym battle.

You should call me a gym trainer."

"It's...Mr. Mura, the gym trainer...

Please take your seats with the challenger Mr. Lin Jing."

Although Yasha was helpless, she had no choice but to obey her grandfather's insistence.

After all, she was looking forward to the next battle.

I didn't expect grandpa would take out these three Pokémon...

Looking forward to the upcoming fierce battle.

Yasha has raised the referee flag in her hand.

"it is good!

So then... um...

How do you pronounce it...”

As soon as she opened her mouth, Yasha, who had forgotten the words, scratched her chin in embarrassment.

Mura also covered his face in dismay.

"Ouch!

So I bet on..."

It seems that this child still needs a few more years of experience. How can he let her inherit the gym at ease?

"oh oh!

Next up is the gym match between challenger Lin Jing from the Sinnoh region and gym trainer Y Mura of the Kamugen gym, with badges at stake.

The rule is three against three.

The game ends when all Pokémon on one side lose their ability to fight first.

Then the following------

Game start! "

Following the other party's announcement, Lin Jing simply raised her eyes slightly.

The small diamonds that had been prepared in advance have already jumped out.

"A small diamond with rock properties...

But you probably guessed what my first Pokémon was.

Please, my friend."

With the appearance of small diamonds.

The originally pitch-black coal stove also stretched out several orange-red bodies and slowly crawled over.

Until the moment it crawled onto the field, the red light on its back became even brighter.

Above my head, the clouds that had been blocking the sunlight since I woke up today have been penetrated by golden light without me noticing.

The originally gloomy battlefield suddenly turned into a bright khaki color.

"It's a sunny day indeed."

Lin Jing was not at all surprised by this sudden change.

Or rather, he had already guessed this situation when he saw the Coal Turtle and the Infernape.

Just like the snowfall characteristics of his own Vulpix.

Cindersquirtle also has a well-known trait that makes it best suited to Fire and Grass-type Pokémon.

Change the weather to sunny day when exiting.

“It’s a fire-attribute gym after all.

And it's rare to have a trainer like you come and challenge me.

Of course, we have to be more serious.”

Behind his glasses, Mura smiled back.

"Just be serious...

Right. "

"Little Diamond, first of all, let's have a greeting gift.

Invisible Rock! "

He first whispered something in a voice that only he could hear, and the next moment Lin Jing officially started the battle.

“Burn with fire!

Full fire. "

As the two of them spoke.

The tiny diamonds were spinning wildly, reflecting the sunlight.

Particles of rock shot out.

The red charcoal mouth behind the coal turtle is even brighter red.

Fierce flames spurted out...

boom-----

"Ouch!"

"Chana!"

"Ouch?!"

The fire-breathing weapon that was ready to go was suddenly swallowed up.

Whether it was the Coal Turtle that was still in battle, the other Fire-Type Pokémon that were watching the battle, or the Pokémon and the two trainers who turned around after realizing it belatedly.

At this moment, the only thing in their field of vision was the volcano that was emitting thick black smoke and whose temperature was constantly rising.
