Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

A few days later, in the Azure Gym, Yang Ming was fighting Pokémon with the gym owner Ah Si.

"Bulbasaur, use Power Whip!"

The countless vine whips on Bulbasaur's body twisted into a giant long whip and slashed at the opponent fiercely.

However, Bulbasaur's opponent this time was very powerful, and just threw a punch to block Bulbasaur's trick.

This is the evolution of Infernape - Forsaken. Compared with Infernape, its body is stronger, and its long hair hangs messily on the side, like a ball of ghost fire, and it exudes an extremely gloomy ghost aura.

Compared with Infernape, Forsaken's speed has decreased, but its other abilities have been comprehensively improved.

"Forsaken, use Wrath Fist!"

Compared to Infernape, Forsaken has the ghost attribute, and the power of the Wrath Fist it uses is undoubtedly more powerful. With the "anger" brought by Bulbasaur's "Power Whip" before, its power can be greatly improved!

"Bulbasaur, use hypnotic powder!" Seeing the opponent's aggressive attack, Yang Ming immediately responded.

However, the hypnotic powder that was always effective did not work this time. With the blessing of the "motivation" characteristic of the Forsaken, the Forsaken ignored the hypnotic powder and hit Bulbasaur with a fist of anger, knocking it back repeatedly before it stabilized its body.

"Bulbasaur, use parasitic seeds!" Seeing that the hypnotic powder was ineffective against the opponent, Yang Ming immediately chose to change tactics.

"Forsaken, use the fist of anger again!"

The parasitic seeds attached to the Forsaken in time, absorbed some of the physical strength, and helped Bulbasaur withstand this fist of anger.

Yang Ming took the opportunity to counterattack: "Bulbasaur, use poison bomb!"

"Forsaken, use ice punch!"

After a fight, Bulbasaur lost its ability to fight. Ah Si is indeed a senior gym leader who has been famous for many years. He is far from being comparable to young people like Fenglu and Xiaojuer. Even Yang Ming's strongest Pokémon was defeated by the Forsaken, not to mention that the Forsaken is not his strongest Pokémon.

The most shocked person was Yin, who was sitting in the audience watching the battle. A few days ago, he got the Strike Badge of the Azure Gym. Now it seems that Ah Si did not contribute at all in the battle with him, and the Forsaken in front of him is much stronger than the Infernape and Infernape he used when fighting him.

Through this battle, he deeply realized that challenging gyms and participating in regional competitions are only the starting point of the road to becoming a strong person, not the end.

If he wants to become a truly top trainer, he has to work harder, more and more.

"I'm a little hungry after the fight, little brother, do you want some snacks?" Ah Si invited.

"No, your snacks are too sweet." Yang Ming decisively refused.

After spending a few days together, Yang Ming has become familiar with this gym owner. Ah Si's personality is as generous as his appearance. In addition, there has been no challenger in Azure City for a long time. Yang Ming easily gained his favor and got some information from him.

As rumored, the Sea God Temple really dislikes the Azure Gym. Even though the gym owner Ah Si is a local, he showed a rejection attitude because he had practiced in other places and refused to cooperate with him.

This made Yang Ming more suspicious of the relationship between Qing Mulin and the two alliance investigators.

In addition, the statement that the Sea God Temple once had five elders was also confirmed by Ah Si. According to Ah Si, the Sea God Temple did have five quasi-king-level strongmen, but they all disappeared mysteriously five years ago, and no one knew where they went.

And the last piece of information shocked Yang Ming - Ma Gun, the stationmaster of the Azure City Liaison Station, actually proposed to Qing Mulin!

This information was completely beyond Yang Ming's expectations, and he even doubted the authenticity of the news for a while.

"What's so strange about this? The contemporary witch is a beauty, and it's well known that the owner of the Chinese medicine store has been infatuated with him," Ah Si was a little disapproving of Yang Ming's reaction, "You can just ask a few fishermen to verify this."

Yang Ming secretly asked Jones to find local residents and members of the Rockets to verify this information, and finally got a positive answer.

"I didn't expect these two people to have this kind of relationship," Yang Ming thought to himself, "Now it seems that the reason behind the disappearance of Ma Gun is probably different from what I guessed before."

"By the way, the eldest lady is waiting for you, it's time for you to go over," Ah Si interrupted his thoughts, "My eldest lady seems to like you very much, you kid should work hard."

The "eldest lady" in Ah Si's mouth refers to Cai Dou, and the reason for this title is because Cai Dou's father is Ah Si's master.

However, regarding the point of "like", Yang Ming feltCaidou actually just likes to fight with strong people, and Yang Ming happens to be a person who likes fighting, so it is easy for outsiders to have the illusion that he "likes" him.

After all, who doesn't like a "mobile sandbag" who comes to the door every day to get beaten without fail?

This time, Yang Ming was defeated by Caidou again. Caidou clamped Yang Ming's neck and arms with her legs, and pressed his body weight on him, making him unable to move.

"Isn't this a judo grounding technique? How can you, a karate genius girl, use this?" Yang Ming complained in his heart.

However, Yang Ming still admired Caidou's fighting skills.

In these days, Yang Ming had to spar with Caidou every day. Although he was beaten black and blue every time, he also felt his own progress.

And Caidou's background is as deep as the sea. Every time Yang Ming made a new breakthrough, she would use new skills and strength to defeat Yang Ming again.

However, Yang Ming was happy with it. The stronger the opponent was, the greater his progress would be.

Feng Lu began to feel sorry for him and helped him treat his wounds every time.

"You are a trainer, as long as the Pokémon is strong enough, it's enough," Feng Lu couldn't help but persuade, "Even if your physique is strong enough, you can't use it normally."

Yang Ming rolled his eyes at her speechlessly: "If it were an ordinary trainer, there would be nothing wrong with what you said. Unfortunately, I am a desperate man who hangs his head on his belt, so I naturally have to ensure that I can fight at any time, even if there is no Pokémon."

Yin was also a little confused: "Teacher, is it really meaningful to fail and be beaten again and again?"

"If a strong man can't even bear the difficulties and setbacks in his life, he can only be a poor man for the rest of his life," Yang Ming said earnestly, "'Failure' and 'shame' are nothing big, only 'death' is the most terrible. As long as a person doesn't die, he will have unlimited possibilities."

"The failure and beating now are just to prevent yourself from dying in the hands of the enemy in the future."
