My elf trainer simulator

The good luck from last time did not last.

[You lost to the Golden Gym Leader]

The gambler who walked out of the Golden Gym was not discouraged and walked straight out of the city.

[You know very well that more important than having good luck defeating the Gym Leader again is whether the Gym Leader can agree with this way of fighting]

"Ah~"

Kashiwagi suddenly realized that he had done some homework after becoming the temporary director.

It can be said that the gym owner still has great rights. As long as there is a legitimate reason, even if the challenger finally wins the game, he can refuse to issue a gym badge to him.

In this era of gamblers, the power of gym leaders is only expected to be higher.

Once the opponent is offended by gambling tactics, no matter how hard you try, it will be useless.

Essentially.

It is too fantasy to rely on just one Pokémon that can use a one-hit kill move to defeat the three Pokémon of the gym leader.

Even if you really win by luck in the end, the gym leader may not be able to accept it.

[You deeply understand that if you want to win when the card is revealed, you must have enough chips in your hand]

What gambler thoughts and creeds.

Kashiwagi secretly complained, but he also agreed with the basic logic of gamblers, and understood why the old man hurried out—

Capture new Pokémon.

Gambler and Mr. Mosquito were constantly searching in the wilderness, passing many wild Pokémon. Their purpose was quite clear.

[You are helplessly aware that the strength that you can usually find even in the city seems to have become a rare existence in the wild. Is this the God of Gambling punishing you?]

You can tell through the narration.

Although the gambler is determined to embark on the journey, he is actually a bit old and has no reliable means of transportation. In his time, even Kanto, a mainstream area, had poor infrastructure.

Therefore, it takes a lot of effort for the gambler just to capture the second Pokémon.

Fortunately, the talent of Fortune has been triggering well.

Gamblers who failed to find any strength in the wild chose to buy a powerful force through the Rockets at a low price that had been eliminated by their construction company due to old age.

Kashiwagi: "..."

Who owes whom money? Why are the Rockets so willing to cooperate with gamblers? ?

He really didn't understand.

What made him even more bitter was the situation of the powerful one. After the beastly Rockets had used that guy's labor force, they still refused to let it go and sold it to squeeze out the last bit of its value.

This simulation plot is so heavy...

[You have gained the power to retire, and the number of older people has increased]

[You briefly got acquainted with Haoli, then headed to the Golden Gym without stopping to initiate the second challenge]

There is no doubt about it.

The gambler's purpose of subduing Haoli must be to let him join his one-hit kill system. Furthermore, Haoli is a Pokémon that is more suitable for using one-hit kill moves than Mosquito Repellent.

Because of its characteristics [no defense].

The effect in the game is to ignore the hit rate of the move. It will definitely hit the opponent, but it is also easy to be hit by the opponent.

Combined with [Earth Fissure], which can also be learned with great force, it can be regarded as a child in the game, and most Pokémon with flying attributes cannot do anything about it.

certainly.

These are limited to games.

There are no sure-hit moves in the animation world. The so-called [no defense] feature, to put it bluntly, is actually a suicide attack, giving up dodging and trying to hit the opponent once.

However, although the level of the old hero obtained by the gambler is not bad, it is not capable of breaking the ground yet. So why is he so anxious to challenge the gym?

The answer is clear.

[You pretended to send a powerful force, and after you commanded it casually and caused it to be defeated, you naturally sent out the Mosquito Repellent Lord, and started the familiar game of gambling on the ground]

[Your Mosquito Repellent Repellent defeated Kuai Quan Lang, Flying Leg Lang, and Wrist Power]

[You defeated the Golden Gym Leader and obtained the Golden Badge]

That's right.

Haoli exists for sacrifice.

Let Mr. Mosquito Repellent, who relies on one-hit kills to defeat his opponents, appear less obtrusive, using one card to cover up another to achieve his true purpose.

[Heart is as solid as stone]?

"Um……"

Kashiwagi looked at the scene in silence. The gamblers who were celebrating with Haoli and Mosquito Relic in the izakaya were having a big meal. When he saw the smiling face on Haoli's head, he didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, the gambler is not someone who treats Pokémon stingily, but he also feels complicated about Haoli's various experiences.

anyway.

The gambler who has two partners once again embarks on his journey to challenge the gym by relying on his luck in gambling.

[You decided to go to Kuye City as your next stop and came to the underground passage]

Kashiwagi was surprised that the underground passages in the Kanto area had already been established at that time.

But what left him speechless was that the gamblers who came to the underground passage were not to speed up their progress, but to go to the pachinko machine hidden here.

It’s worthy of betting on dogs.

It's simply impossible for a dog to change its habit of eating shit.

Kashiwagi looked at the enthusiastic gambler sitting in front of the pachinko machine playing, and finally understood where the talent of [Hot-Blooded Boy] came true.

Co-authorship is fulfilled in gambling! You are young at heart, so you gamble big, right?

[You lost most of your money and were dragged away by Mr. Mosquito Repellent and Haoli when you were at the top]

in the screen.

It seemed that the gambler, who was red-eyed from gambling, was forcibly dragged away by two Pokémon and had to continue his journey to Deadleaf City.

And soon they arrived at Dry Leaf City.

[You arrived at Kuye City, which is Kanto’s premier international port. The bustling scene shocked you so much that you exclaimed that this was different from thirty years ago]

Thirty years ago…

It seems that the gambler also traveled when he was young?

Kashiwagi raised his eyebrows.

The leader of the Dead Leaf Gym was not Ma Zhishi. It was estimated that the air force major was still very young at this time and had not even started serving in the Hezhong area.

But the property is still electrical property.

After losing to the gym owner in the old routine and confirming that the opponent agreed with this combat model, the gambler approached Team Rocket again to try to borrow some travel funds.

[You confidently stated that you are old and you have to spend too much money on travel. At worst, you will pay it all back after you get the bonus]

Then I actually borrowed it.

Kashiwagi: "???"

But just when he was thinking about whether the Rockets of that era were bad, the scene changed.

The main perspective is separated from the gambler.

The two Rockets chatted carelessly after the gambler got his money and left.

It was learned through the narration that the two took advantage of the gambler's ability to engage in one-hit kill tactics to open bets within the Rockets, attracting many people to join.

As the gamblers defeated the Golden Gym, even the boss of the Rockets heard the news and seemed to have the idea of ​​using gamblers to do marketing to harvest the trainer market. This is why they cooperated with gamblers again and again, borrowing money and The reason is to help find Pokémon.

In other words, the gambler thought he was getting an advantage, but in fact the Rockets had an even bigger advantage, and it was beyond his imagination.

Kashiwagi watched silently as the gambler came to the beach, becoming more and more curious about the ending of this story.

[You have arrived at Dead Leaf Beach, searching for your target]

Compared to wrist strength.

The Pokémon the gambler was looking for this time, the Giant Claw, was obviously much more abundant. The gambler randomly turned around twice and found a Giant Claw in a dark corner.

Then send the mosquito repellent to attack the opponent.

After two gym challenges, he killed five opponents in total, which made his strength grow to some extent. Apart from other things, it was still possible to bully wild Pokémon.

The giant claw crab was conquered by the gambler without any suspense.

[You conquered the giant claw crab, and the number of young offspring increased]

In order to have more chips in their hands, gamblers also started intensive training on one-hit kill moves.

Although the physical abilities of Mosquito Repellent Lord and Hao Li are relatively limited due to age, they are still much stronger than humans. At least Hao Li has learned [earth cracking] as expected.

The Giant Claw Crab also learned [Decapitation Pliers].

"Is it so efficient?"

Kashiwagi was a little surprised. He may not learn skills as quickly as a gambler. Could it be that this is the power of specialization?

The legendary one-shot kill of an immortal?

The gambler was undoubtedly very surprised by this. He was able to achieve such results by seriously cultivating Pokémon for the first time. He couldn't help but start to imagine that if he worked harder when he was young, it might not be what it used to be now.

"Betting on dogs is just a fantasy."

Kashiwagi waved his hand to the narrator.

For now, he tends to dislike gamblers.

Whether it was the loan shark this guy owed that put his grandson in a life crisis, or his attitude of still playing pachinko even though the situation was unclear, it all made him particularly angry.

Disrespecting the elderly!

Being born in the Ole area, he knew very well what gambling would do to people. When his friends who grew up together started gambling, even if they were just betting on the outcome of his battle, it made him particularly angry.

[You start challenging the Dead Leaf Gym for the second time]

Kashiwagi came to his senses.

within the light screen.

Gamblers still use the old tricks to deal with the dead leaf gym leader, and the target of sacrifice this time is undoubtedly the new member of the team, the Giant Claw Crab.

As a water-type Pokémon, it would be at a great disadvantage when fighting against electric-type Pokémon.

With the dedication of the giant claw crab, the fight between Hao Li and Mr. Mosquito Repellent became much smoother.

Especially the former.

[Earthquake]'s hit rate is much higher than the latter. Of the three Pokémon owned by the Dead Leaf Gym Leader, two were killed by its Earthquake.

[You defeated the Dead Leaf Gym Leader and obtained the Dead Leaf Badge]

The current leader of the Dead Leaf Gym is a young man. He admires the gambler's behavior of pursuing his dreams even at an early age. He has no dislike for his one-hit kill style tactics, but rather appreciates them.

The other party also took the initiative to help Haoli experience the novel communication exchange of that era, allowing him to evolve into a strange force.

[You feel particularly novel about the machine in front of you]

[Your heroic power has evolved into strange power]

[You look at Wei Li’s four hands and think it would be great if you could have four hands when playing cards. It would be very convenient for cheating]

...This old man is hopeless.

Kashiwagi looked at the narrator speechlessly.

Obtaining three badges all relied on one-hit kill moves. In that era, such a person was indeed worthy of becoming a gimmick.

Under the operation of the Rockets, gamblers were forced to become famous.

The narrator said that in order to make the gambler's situation more controversial and discussion-worthy, the Rockets also specially sent a group of people to protest his "opportunistic" behavior, which triggered heated discussions in society.

The gambler at this time naturally did not know this. He was preparing to go to Nibi City far west of Kanto through the gopher hole.

And prepare to fill in another general.

[You have come to the gopher hole, looking for your goal this time. 】

The gambler's target this time is a gopher with sand-burrowing characteristics.

This kind of Pokémon can also learn Earth Splitting, and the [Sand Cave] characteristic can restrict the opponent's Pokémon. In the game, it makes the opponent unable to finish. The effect in the animation...

"A small quicksand hell? It seems like it can increase the hit rate of Earth Fissure."

Kashiwagi looked at the gopher on the screen who created a sand pit to restrict the movement of Mosquito Repellent, and suddenly found that his mind was beginning to be filled with ideas based on one-hit kill moves.

pity.

It is difficult for wild gophers to learn the move of Ground Splitting, so trapping Mr. Mosquito Repellent will only result in being embarrassed.

[You conquered the gophers, and the number of young juniors increased]

After the gambler successfully conquered the gopher, he accelerated his progress and successfully arrived at the Deep Gray City (Nibby City).

[You went to the underground casino here, but found that everyone looked at you strangely for some reason, which made you feel very uneasy and turned around to leave]

After being a gambler for so long, he still has a strong sense of danger. He did not stay in an unfamiliar place like Dark Gray City for a long time, and was ready to leave after quickly challenging the gym.

did not expect.

The dark gray gym leader, a narrow-eyed man named Wu Neng, revealed his name and tactical style.

Then the gambler was at a loss and learned everything from the other person's mouth.

[You look at the newspaper handed over by the other party, and read the debate on whether the one-hit kill style is a fraudulent tactic and whether it should be banned, and you can't help but sigh]

Bullshit indeed.

Kashiwagi nodded. The gambler did not choose the one-hit kill style because of his own wishes, but because his Pokémon training experience and age were not enough for him to defeat his opponent by normal means, so he chose this tactic.

After conquering the gophers and giant claw crabs, the gambler also thought about training them seriously, relying on ordinary tactics and one-hit kill style to support each other to enhance the effect.

However, the profession of trainer is more profound than he thought.

The progress of the gopher and giant claw crab in all aspects is really weak, so gamblers can only try their best to upgrade their levels, otherwise they will not even be able to use the one-hit kill flow.

[You start to challenge the dark gray gym]

Wu Neng, the owner of the museum, is undoubtedly Xiaogang's father. He is still quite young in this world, so young that he may not even be twenty years old.

But such club owners still make it difficult for gamblers.

First of all, the levels of Crab and Gopher are not as good as those of martial Pokémon, so gamblers can only rely on monster power and Mosquito.

Fortunately, the two attributes are relatively superior, and sometimes the Earth Splitter can't hit and can be restrained by other moves.

But it's still very difficult.

In the end, the gambler barely won after three challenges, and he also saw his limit——

[You defeated the dark gray gym leader and obtained the dark gray badge]

Gym challenges are not as simple as imagined. Even if the tactics are approved by the gym owner, it will still be useless if the Pokémon's strength cannot be improved.
