No.58 A hymn of courage that I witnessed that day

For any aquatic Pokémon, the Tyrannosaurus is one of the most threatening enemies.

In a hoarse roar, the swarm of stinger jellyfish fearfully retreated a few meters, and the two sides confronted each other across the water. Xiao Ye was stunned, and saw that the tyrannosaurus seemed to be eager to attack, so he hurriedly put on a posture of "forget it, big brother, forget it" to signal his partner to extinguish the fire, and at the same time did not forget to quietly add the most important words-

Xiaoye: "If we hit it, we'll lose money for three meals." ”

Tyrannosaurus: "......!?"

One person and one dragon glanced at each other and decisively reached a consensus.

The tyrannosaurus roared in the sky, as if it was about to spew out destructive rays in the next second. The stinger jellyfish retreated or made defensive gestures, but the red light abruptly enveloped their opponents, enveloping their massive bodies back into the tiny Poké Balls.

The next moment, the trainer turned his head and ran away in the posture of an electric mouse when he saw the cat boss, and within a few seconds he couldn't even find the afterimage. The stinger jellyfish looked at each other in the river, full of question marks, suspecting that they had encountered a pretending bale.

Fortunately, this group of precious "protected Pokémon" only lives in water, and humans can easily shake them off. After casually turning behind a mountain rock and confirming the safety of the neighborhood with waveguide detection, Xiao Ye released the tyrannosaurus to check if it had been stabbed by a stinger jellyfish.

The tentacles of the stinger jellyfish can secrete dangerous venom that not only paralyzes the poisoner's body, but also causes unbearable pain, making it one of the most invettable Pokémon in the water. Xiao Ye carefully examined the part where the tyrannosaurus was stabbed, and was relieved to see that the scales were not broken, and the tyrannosaurus itself did not show signs of poisoning.

"Stinger jellyfish are very poisonous, don't do such a dangerous thing next time. Xiao Ye only thought that the tyrannosaurus wanted to fight on a whim, so she took out the wound medicine bottle and sprayed it twice, and admonished with some concern.

In Sayo's impression, the Tyrannosaurus, despite its reckless fighting, has always been open to suggestions that can help avoid injuries - after all, no Pokémon likes pain. But as soon as the words that he was used to saying came out, the tyrannosaurus immediately glared at the dragon's eyes and put on a very unhappy face.

"Roar!"

Xiao Ye was a little dazed, thought about it and added in line with the principle of "trainers should do a good job of logistics", "But I have an antidote prepared, so don't worry about being stabbed accidentally." ”

Tyrannosaurus: (doubling his anger) "Roar!!"

The trainer was suddenly even more confused, and looked at the electric mouse on his shoulder for help.

Pichu: "It says 'roar' mound." ”

Sayo: "......"

The two sides stared at each other for a moment. Xiao Ye recalled the whole process from being attacked to the tactical retreat, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said tentatively, "Thank you for helping me just now, please next time?"

As soon as these words came out, the dark blue water dragon immediately stopped glaring, and nodded with satisfaction, "Huh." ”

The big water dragon got the answer he wanted, and easily took care of himself to bite the fruit on the tree next to him. And Xiao Ye and Pichu people and rats look at each other, and their heads are full of question marks.

The Tyrannosaurus is a group of rough temperaments and is not a "gregarious" type. Even if they are subdued, they usually don't get too close to their trainers or fellow Pokémon - and the Tyrannosaurus of the Night is no exception.

All along, it has been living with its trainers not so much as as companions. The Trainer provides life resources and training guidance, while the Pokémon carry out the Trainer's orders and actively fight when needed. In addition, the Tyrannosaurus does not pay attention to what the trainer is doing, and rarely intervenes to help unless it encounters a life-threatening situation.

In fact, this kind of "employee-employer" relationship is quite common among trainers. Humans and Pokémon trust each other's decisions and abilities, but don't overly integrate into each other's lives. They don't need to be more "family-like" to be able to work together towards the same goal, and the bond is sometimes even stronger than an emotional bond.

Such partners are not uncommon in Sayo's team, and Tyrannosaurus is the most "employee" among them. As a river tyrant who used to live alone, he was only barely familiar with the human with the little fire dragon, and felt that the other party was quite pleasing to the eye, and he happened to be tired of staying in the river and wanted to change the environment, so he joined the team casually. At the beginning of the journey, it didn't even cooperate with the washed scales, and its face was full of words "Don't care if Lao Tzu loves cleanliness or not". If it weren't for Xiao Ye's agility, maybe he would have to be bathed by the water cannon three times before he cleaned the tyrannosaurus.

And such a tyrannosaurus will take the initiative to intervene in the battle when the stinger jellyfish attack, helping the trainer block the attack, which is really abnormal - it clearly knows that if it really fights, three stinger jellyfish are not enough for Xiao Ye to beat with one hand.

Probably because the question marks in the eyes of humans and electric rats were too thick, and the tyrannosaurus stared at the tyrannosaurus so much that it didn't smell good, so he had to blow angrily at the trainer's face, blowing the short hair that was not neat in the first place even more unkempt.

Half a year ago, when it entered Night's Poké Ball, it really didn't think about having a good relationship with this human dwarf.

First, the Tyrannosaurus clan lacked this string in their minds, and second, it had the pain of being abandoned on the battlefield after being gullible in its childhood, and it inevitably had a preconceived impression of humans as "cowards".

Unlike the cowardly boy of many years ago, its second owner was powerful enough that she did not have to fear most difficulties, even if she was forced to retreat strategically for her livelihood, she could escape a sense of being uplifted. For the Tyrannosaurus, of course, this is a good thing – it doesn't have to look after the safety of its trainers all the time in the wild, and can go about its own thing at its leisure.

However, the overpower also obscures the answers that should have been given at the beginning of the journey.

If she faces a crisis that is far beyond what a trainer can solve with her strength, will she rise to the challenge, or will she leave something behind like the "last human" and run away regardless of it?

Today's Tyrannosaurus is no longer a weak Pokémon that is afraid of being abandoned. It calmly examines its trainer from a new onlooker's perspective - until it follows the humans to the land of Mount Aso.

On the day when the lava stained the sky red, it saw the god Niwa, so powerful that all living beings trembled, and the fury that could burn almost everything. It was the god who stood at the top of the power of the old times, the tyrannosaurus saw with his own eyes, and the fire-breathing dragon, which was not afraid of the sky and the earth, subconsciously curled up in the translucent ball, trembling slightly uncontrollably.

But their trainer didn't tremble, and she didn't flinch, even if her strength couldn't resist even a random breath from the flame bird.

As young humans rushed into the flames, the Tyrannosaurus's quiet scrutiny finally came to an end. It decided to recognize its second trainer – not just as a "decent employer", but also as a comrade-in-arms who could trust each other's lives.

- In the end, it is not "strength" that touches it, but "courage".

The Tyrannosaurus Carp's thoughts trainers have no way of knowing, and the big water dragon with thick lines is too lazy to tell his thoughts. It simply slapped the trainer on the back with its tail, and then tapped its own hard scales in a puff of head.

The bewildered look of the human girl gradually turned into thoughtfulness, and then into suddenness.

Seeing his trainer raise his head, the big water dragon looked determined, "I completely understand what you mean", and said to it with a smile, "No problem, then please cover me with you in the future, Brother Long?"

Tyrannosaurus: "......"

A little happy, but I felt that something was not right.

Forget it, Brother Long, if you have the kung fu to fight with humans, it is better to swallow a few more fruits.

The sudden hiccup was put aside for the moment - after opening the waveguide detection, Xiao Ye avoided the stinger jellyfish colony and circled to the safety of the river to continue the cold herb collection work.

As the morning passed, she had gained a lot, and she was content to stop and start preparing for the afternoon training.

Most of the area of Wind Snow Mountain is uninhabited, and there are very few Pokémon groups, so it is not difficult to find a suitable open space for training. They finally settled on a deserted valley - in order to exercise their long-range detection ability, the work was done by Leolu, so that the puppy was already so nervous that his ears were lying down before he had even started training.

The pre-race training plan was finalized while the cruise ship was sailing, and it was told to the Pokémon in detail. After the trainer briefly reiterated the main points, the Pokémon returned to their respective positions and began a new training task.

The venue is divided into two zones according to "solo practice" and "sparring", the latter is almost twice the size of the former - it is really the two semi-sparring combinations that gather the most destructive and skilled demolition players, if the field is too small, maybe the pond fish will be affected.

Among them, Leo Lu and Snow Boy are the most low-key pair in the "sparring" group.

As the latest member of the team, Leolu's fighting style has not yet been formed, and he is not suitable for practicing complex moves, and his current training is still based on basic skills. In order to better use the power of the ripples, it is tasked with dodging the Snow Boy's attacks while blindfolded.

Leolu's detection skills are not proficient, and he often reacts half a beat slower when sensing his surroundings while fighting. If you play against other Pokémon, you will probably be beaten and rolled all over the ground, but it is just right for Snow Boy to be the opponent.

The little guy didn't think it was a fight, sometimes he bumped forward, sometimes he breathed a breath of cold air, and his moves were not lethal, but he had a lot of fun by himself. Whenever the blindfolded Leo Lu successfully completed the evasion, he would enthusiastically send a burst of cheers, which immediately made the puppy so overwhelmed that he almost walked on a crutch.

Unlike the new members, both the Tyrannosaurus and the Big Bird have entered "Advanced Mode" in their training.

After referring to "36 Cases of Move Use" and Captain Xiaotian's suggestion, Xiao Ye carefully planned for them the next move combinations that should be carefully polished. The two capable men's new training program is centered around "Tempest", so it's a natural fit.

The Tyrannosaurus learned the move "Water Wave" a long time ago, but it has been neglected to practice, but its power is reasonable, and the firing speed of the move is pitifully slow compared to the water cannon, making it difficult to hit moving opponents.

Water Wave is actually a very special move. After hitting the target, the water spreads instantly, not only can it change the environment in a small area, play a role in disrupting and restraining the effect, but the Pokémon that are caught in the water flow may also fall into chaos due to the shock wave, and the usage is flexible and efficient, which is very valuable for practice.

In order to compensate for the lack of firing speed of the water waves, Sayo asked the Tyrannosaurus to try to use the "Storm" as a support, using the wind pressure to accelerate the flight of the water balloon, so that the move could achieve the explosive effect of Charizard's flame splash as much as possible.

Unleashing two moves at the same moment is not an easy task. However, the Tyrannosaurus had mastered the skills of superimposing surfing and creating miniature tsunamis while maintaining the storm before the Quartz League, and had the experience of being a distraction. Therefore, the big water dragon was full of confidence in the new topic, and felt that he could completely practice a powerful "storm water bomb".

Its opponent, Tabitori, is also trying to use Tempest as a persistent move.

Under the instructions of the trainer, Tabitori reduced the strength of the storm and increased its range, creating a "storm field" that made it difficult for Pokémon to open their eyes. At the same time, the Electric's Awakening Power either unleashes a flash of light to capture vision or creates a slight paralyzing sensation to limit enemy movements, while the Light Blade of the Air Slash blends invisibly into the storm, making its form imperceptible to the naked eye, waiting to attack when the enemy is unprepared.

The two Pokémon practiced their own different moves during the battle, and the entire valley was blown into wind and dust. Fortunately, Xiao Ya had already arranged them in the farthest corner, so that the other Pokémon would not be blown into dirt and cocomon.

As for the "half" of the two and a half groups - it is none other than Charizard who fights with himself.

It learned the stand-in through the move machine during the Quartz Alliance, but the proficiency was completely insufficient, and the stand-in flew crookedly even when it flew.

In order to truly play the role of this "must-learn move for professional trainers", Charizard is working hard to learn to control its own stand-in. The trainer had already instructed him not to use his moves for the time being, and to start with ordinary combat, and the "two" Charizard were still fighting earth-shattering, smashing a rock and bulldozing two bushes from time to time, making it look like thunder in the valley.

Xiao Ye observed the training status of the demolition team from a distance for a while, and felt that in order to protect his clothes, it was better not to approach for the time being.

She was about to turn around to check the progress of the solo training group when a strange sound suddenly came from the mountains in the distance.

The sound was somewhat similar to an elephant's roar, but it was thick and rough, with a stiffness that was not a living thing, and it was uncomfortable. Pichu felt his scalp tingle for no apparent reason, and the hair all over his body exploded, and he swooped to the trainer's feet, and only then did he dare to poke out half of his ears carefully.

The roar of the elephant echoed through the valley. The aftermath was swallowed up by the sound of the impact that followed.

The roaring impact came from a closer source than the howl of a suspected creature. Xiao Ye looked up and saw curling smoke and dust rising from the riverbank in the distance.

The distance is too far for waveguide detection to be effective, but based on vision alone, Xiao Ye can still conclude that the smoke and dust are within the range of the Pokémon Reserve.

She thought about it for a moment and temporarily halted the Pokémon's training.
