Pokémon Heart Journey

The three people who successfully completed the challenge and obtained the badges were now sitting in the room. There were no tables or chairs in the room, as these were all from the Kist Zone.

The rooms at the Pokémon Center are usually very crowded, so members of the same team, as long as they are under the age of 15, are usually crowded in the same room, regardless of gender.

At this time, Sundae was sitting quietly in a window seat, his hands weakly supporting his cheeks, his eyes flickering as he looked at the table, not knowing what he was thinking about. Although he didn't say anything, the silent atmosphere made Xiaozhi, who was always enthusiastic and cheerful, feel something was wrong.

Xiaoyang and Xiaozhi, who were sitting in front of her, looked at each other. They were sitting on the chairs at this time, their bodies were stiff, and their legs were shaking from time to time. The two of them kept communicating with each other with their eyes, although they didn't understand what the other meant. After all, they had never encountered such a scene before, and it was difficult to understand the meaning in each other's eyes.

As for Pikachu and Pidgeot, Miss Joy arranged for them to rest. After all, they were still injured and needed further full-body examinations. There was no way they could fully recover in a short period of time.

In the end, it was Xiaozhi who couldn't stand it anymore. He stretched out his hand and said to Sundae cautiously: "Sundae, you don't need to care so much. After all, you are facing the Four Heavenly Kings. It's already very good to be able to achieve that level, and Mr. Aju also recognizes your strength."

Xiao Yang also nodded in agreement and said, "That is to say, your performance is already quite good. Even though I successfully defeated Mr. Aju, I am already 17 years old after all, five years older than you, and I have five years more experience than you. When I was your age, my strength was far inferior to yours. With your potential, your future achievements are definitely limitless."

At this point, he briefly recalled the scene of the Sundae battle, and said with a little sourness: "And Mr. Aju's tactics are really... hard to evaluate."

Yes, that’s right. Although the three people present all got Aju’s pink badge, the only ones who actually defeated Aju were Xiaozhi and Xiaoyang.

The rules were exactly the same as before, and Xiaoyang actually performed better than Xiaozhi. He took out Venusaur, Catman, and Scyther in succession.

It adopted a relatively rogue tactic at the beginning. It first let Bulbasaur continuously use hypnotic powder, and then used Parasitic Seeds to continuously consume Akihabara's Double Gas. After successfully hypnotizing and parasitizing the opponent, it immediately switched to Scyther. Relying on the skill of Slash, which can continuously stack damage, and Scyther's technical expert characteristics, it successfully killed the opponent's first Pokémon.

As for the second one, Aju sent out Arbok, which successfully knocked down Xiaoyang's Scyther and Venusaur with the extremely trained Serpent's Stare. However, Venusaur still gave the opponent a Parasitic Seed before falling. Finally, Xiaoyang replaced it with the third Cat Boss. Although there was some level gap between the two sides, after Cat Boss used the provocation skill, he adopted the kite-flying tactic, constantly consuming the opponent's physical strength, and finally succeeded in knocking down Arbok before he was exhausted.

On the other hand, Sundae was not as lucky as the other two. The two Pokémon used by Akatsuki were Stomper and Mothra.

At the beginning of the game, Aju used the rain-seeking skill of Poison Jellyfish to forcefully break Sundae's sandstorm tactics, and then used the mirror attribute to eliminate his own attribute disadvantage. Relying on the substitute poison tactics that was even more disgusting than Xiaoyang, and the rain disk attribute, he defeated Sundae's three Pokémon one after another before being killed.

The next Pokémon, Mothra, was even more powerful. With the help of the Farmer's Three Powders, the Immobilization Technique to enhance interference, and the Butterfly Dance to enhance the killing, it only suffered minor injuries and took down the last two Pokémon of the Sundae (the Sundae could not control the Fossil Wyvern yet).

Hearing their words, Sundae just sighed softly, shook his head at them, and said: "Although I do care about today's battle, I'm not thinking about this."

"So what are you thinking about? If you have any difficulties, be sure to tell us and we will all help you," Xiaozhi said.

Sundae looked at the other person with a hint of gratitude, turned his head to look out the window, and then said slowly: "Actually, I mainly feel that the gap between my strength and yours is getting bigger and bigger. Xiaoyang is okay, as he said, he has been traveling for five years, but even compared to Xiaozhi, I still have a lot of shortcomings."

Hearing Shengdai's words, Xiaoyang's eyes twitched involuntarily. Although what I said was indeed correct, you don't have to say it so directly. Where are your manners as a young lady from a wealthy family?

Sundae didn't care about Xiaoyang's thoughts, but continued: "My reaction and adaptability when facing emergencies are still far from enough, and my strongest Pokémon at the moment is Sandslip, but it only has the strength of a quasi-king advanced level. Even if I want to make it into the top 32 of the league, I'm afraid it will be very difficult."

At this point, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I originally thought that since I had trained in the secret realm, even if there was a gap in strength compared to yours, you shouldn't be too far behind, but I didn't expect..."

Then, she suddenly turned to look at Xiaozhi and the others, and said in a firm tone: "So, please help me next time, whether it's adaptability, command ability, or something else."

Looking at the other party's determined eyes, Xiaozhi immediately stood up and said confidently: "Don't worry, Sundae, we will definitely help you. I believe that with your talent, Sundae, you will definitely become the runner-up of the conference."

Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Sundae raised his eyebrows slightly, but then seemed to understand Xiaozhi's meaning, and asked with a slight smile in his tone: "I am the runner-up of the tournament, so who should be the champion?"

Xiaozhi immediately stretched out his hand, pointed his thumb at himself, and said confidently: "The champion is of course me."

"Pfft!"

Hearing what Xiaozhi said, Sundae covered his mouth with the back of his hand and laughed out loud, smiling charmingly.

After laughing for a while, he gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands, then rolled his eyes at Xiaozhi and said, "I think you'd better not say too much, otherwise you may not even be able to make it into the top 32."

When Xiaozhi heard what Sundae said, he immediately jumped up and said, "How is that possible? I want to become a Pokémon Master."

Seeing the two of them like this, Xiao Yang, who felt completely ignored, finally couldn't help but pat the table with his hand, and then said, "I say, aren't you a little too arrogant? The real candidate for the championship is still here!"

After hearing Xiao Yang's words, Sundai and Xiaozhi looked at each other, and then...

"Hahahahahaha..."

Seeing the two of them like this, Xiao Yang couldn't help but twitch his lips. It would have been fine if Sundae was covering his mouth and laughing secretly, but Xiaozhi actually just lay on the chair and laughed out loud.

You guys are going too far. Can you still have fun?
