Pokémon Heart Journey

"Speaking of which, Ms. Lijia, you should be okay, right? We saw a report earlier that Team Rocket seemed to have attacked Rainbow City."

"Well~, Xiaozhi, what do you hope will happen to me?" Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Rika looked at Serena and the other two following behind him, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

"Eh? Ah! That's not the case. I'm just a little worried about you, Miss Lika." Xiaozhi, thinking that he was misunderstood, quickly waved his hands and explained.

"Oh~" Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Lijia deliberately prolonged her tone, "So, Xiaozhi, you care about me, even though we haven't met many times. I'm so happy."

"Eh? Uh...it seems to be true, but why do I feel this sentence is a little strange?" After hearing what Lijia said, Xiaozhi felt something was wrong in his subconscious, but there seemed to be nothing wrong with this sentence, as he really cared about the other person.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect Miss Rika to be so sinister!" Looking at Serena and the other two who were already on alert, and then looking at Xiaozhi who didn't notice anything at all, Xiaoyang didn't know what to say.

Xiao Yang could see that Li Jia was just looking for some fun. If Xiao Zhi had said those things just now, if it were a woman who didn't know him well, she would probably be pinching his soft flesh at the very least. Unfortunately, the three people present were different. They would only be wary of Li Jia.

He looked at Rika, who had become an enemy for no reason but was still clueless, and then looked at Satoshi, who was still thinking.

As expected, people like you are destined to follow the path of the King of the Sea. Some things cannot be guarded against all the time. Once the fate comes, you can't stop it even if you want to.

"Hahaha, young people are more energetic!"

"Long time no see, Xiaozhi"

Suddenly, two familiar voices came into Xiaozhi's ears, and he turned his head with joy.

"Mr. Xia Bo, Mr. Aju, you are here too!"

Yes, the people who came were Xia Bo, the master of the Honglian Gym, and Aju, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Chengdu.

"We should be the ones to say this, Xiaozhi. This is the gym leaders' clubhouse, you shouldn't get involved," Xia Bo said, but there was no reprimand in his tone. Xiaoyang even heard some self-righteousness in the other party's tone.

"Well...anyway, this matter is also related to Miss Nancy. As a friend, I can't just leave her alone. Besides, I'm very powerful now. If a fight really breaks out, I'm fully capable of protecting myself," Xiaozhi said confidently.

"Oh! Really?" Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Xia Bo slightly raised his lips, but because the movement was so small, no one noticed it. He continued, "Then how about taking this opportunity to have a fight?"

"Eh?" Xiaozhi was slightly stunned when he heard what Xia Bo said, and then he said with ecstasy: "Really? I can fight against Mr. Xia Bo!"

"That's right, but it's not just you. Let's just have a doubles match. You and one of your companions will form a team, and I'll be in a group with Aju," Xia Bo suggested, pointing at Aju beside him.

Ah Ju readily agreed to Xia Bo's words, "We also want to take this opportunity to see how much you have improved. What do you think, Xiao Zhi?"

"Of course I have no problem with that. And a doubles match? It seems like it would be fun. Sundae, you guys..."

"In that case, let's form a team, Xiaozhi."

Just as Xiaozhi was about to turn around and ask Sundae and the others who was willing to team up with him, Xiaoyang stepped forward first and asked, which made Sundae, who was about to take action, stop and look at Xiaoyang with some doubt.

I always feel that he has become more and more active in battles recently.

"Xiaoyang? Of course no problem, I also want to team up with you and have a fight."

"Haha, it seems that it's a good decision to come here today. There will be an exciting battle soon," Ma Zhishi smiled generously.

"A battle between Xiaozhi and Xiaoyang and Mr. Xia Bo and Mr. Aju? It's really exciting!"

"Yeah, I wonder how much progress Xiaozhi has made?"

Although Xiaogang and Xiaoxia had only met Xiaozhi a few times, they were both unconsciously attracted by this young man who was full of enthusiasm and passion. Therefore, they all paid special attention to things related to Xiaozhi.

They had originally thought that this kind of thing would be basically impossible to find out. After all, no matter how good Satoshi was, he was just an ordinary rookie trainer, and there shouldn't be much recorded information. However, the result was far beyond their expectations.

From the St. Annun to Dasha, from Matcha City to Rainbow City, the other party seemed to be born with a disaster-prone physique. Basically, the other party has been involved in all major events that have occurred in Kanto recently, and this time is no exception.

The two sides stood separately on the field, and Xiaogang volunteered to serve as the referee next to the field.

"The doubles match will now begin. Each of the two challengers can only use one Pokémon. When all of one side's Pokémon lose their ability to fight, the battle ends. The match begins now!"

Following Gon's order, the three of them took out their Poké Balls at the same time, and Xiaozhi pointed forward and shouted, "Go Pikachu!"

"Pickup!"

As Pikachu leaped onto the field, the Pokémon of the other three people appeared one by one. Xiaoyang directly sent out his Pidgeot, while Xia Bo and Aju on the opposite side released Infernape and Arbol respectively.

Seeing the configurations of both sides, all the gym leaders on the field couldn't help but frown.

"Although the intermediate-level Pidgeot and the elementary-level Pikachu are quite powerful, but..." Ma Zhishi looked at Infernape and Arcanum on the field, "Two advanced-level Pokémon? This battle doesn't look easy."

"Mr. Xia Bo and Mr. Aju really don't know how to hold back," Xiaoxia also said.

"Well, I'm not very clear about the situation of Master Xia Bo, but as Mr. Aju said, he has already been released into the sea, right?" Yu Longyuan looked at the Abo monster on the field, which was only at the high level of Heavenly King, and said hesitantly.

"Uh~, that seems to be correct." Thinking that Aju's strength was not on the same level as hers, Xiaoxia scratched her cheek awkwardly, and then immediately changed the subject.

"But I really didn't expect that Xiaozhi and Pikachu would improve so quickly. I remember when I saw Pikachu before, he was only at the elite level, but now he has reached the king level! And it's only been a few months!" Xiaoxia exclaimed sincerely.

“Well, after all, both of them have worked hard for a period of time, but in terms of the growth rate, it is indeed quite exaggerated,” Yu Longyuan nodded in agreement.

At this moment, the battle on the field was about to break out.
