Chapter 500: Challenge the Hinoki Gym
In the afternoon, Xia You and Lijia walked out of the gate and left Charizard Canyon, and the two spent another day and a night rushing back to Hinoki Town again.
Because Charizard was left there, at this time, Xia You's side was only left with Shanaiduo, Geng Ghost, Crystal Steel Snake, Lei Yibu, Fast Dragon, Flying Mantis, Shakiras, plus Shui Jun and Lei Gong, and the Yibu obtained from the five sisters of Yuanzhu, these ten Pokémon.
There are two free positions, which also gives Xia You the activity space to continue to accept Pokémon in the future.
Of course, having space doesn't mean that he will immediately accept new Pokémon, but that he would rather lack them than find what he really likes.
After a long but not boring journey, by the early morning of the third day, the two of them were standing outside the gate of the Hinoki Dojo again.
Fortunately, this time the notice had been taken down, and the door was open, and it was clear that Ah Bi had returned to the gym.
Looking into the hall, I saw that the rotunda was like a botanical garden, with towering trees everywhere, green grass under your feet, and bushes everywhere.
Standing outside the door, Xia You shouted inside: "Excuse me, is there anyone?" ”
The voice echoed in the gym, but after waiting for a long time, no one responded.
Glancing at Lijia, Xia You simply no longer hesitated and walked in directly.
There was a weedy path underneath them, and as they went deeper, the two of them looked left and right, and found that it was basically the same as a normal forest outside.
To be able to include a small forest, this juniper leather hall is really generous, otherwise it would not have been built in the suburbs!
The only difference is that there are many insect Pokémon hidden in the forest, and there are many more of them than in the normal forest.
It was only after walking for a short time that they saw a large group of green caterpillars, unicorns, iron chrysalis, and iron shell pupa, which hid in the bushes and behind the leaves, and when they heard someone approaching, they suddenly popped up and looked at the intruder with a cautious eye.
Lijia sighed lightly: "It's really worthy of a worm-based gym, you can see all kinds of worm-based Pokémon everywhere." ”
In terms of style, this place is similar to the greenhouse in the Rika Gym, but the Pokémon inside are completely different.
Glancing at her, Xia You couldn't help but smile and said, "As the owner of the Grass Sect Gym, I must be very uncomfortable when I see so many Worm Pokémon." ”
Xia You's words are not untargeted, in terms of nature, after all, most of the insect Pokémon are the natural enemies of the grass Pokémon, and they have a restraint relationship, as a full-time grass trainer, it is difficult not to be affected by these factors.
Lijia nodded slightly.
If Xiaoxia is simply afraid of insect Pokémon, then Lijia doesn't like it at all.
The two walked more than a dozen steps to the interior of the botanical garden, and at this moment, a young voice full of emotion suddenly came from the side.
"Who are you?"
Hearing this voice, Xia You and Lijia turned their heads to look, only to see a purple-haired young man wearing a grass-green shirt and grass-green shorts in the bushes a little farther away, squatting there and looking at them.
Xia You took a step forward: "Excuse me, you are the owner of the pavilion here, Ah Bi, right?" ”
Ah Bi patted the dirt on his hands and stood up, and it was only then that Xia You and the two saw clearly that he was squatting there to take care of an iron chrysalis.
Ah Bi looked Xia You up and down a few times: "That's right, I'm the trainer of the Hinoki Gym, and I have a bug-based Pokémon, known as the insect-based encyclopedia living dictionary!" ”
Claims?
Encyclopedia of insects? Walking dictionary?
For this title, Xia You doesn't know how to complain.
No matter how you look at it, this nickname looks like Ah Bi gave it up himself, and is there really anyone who will put his nickname on his lips?
Ah Bi asked, "Are you here to challenge the gym?" ”
Xia You nodded: "I already went to the door once a few days ago, but just in time for you to go out, I missed the opportunity." ”
"Oh?" Ah Bi was a little surprised, "That's really embarrassing, I've been to a farther place these days to catch new Pokémon, so I'm not in the gym." ”
Now that he knew Xia You's intentions, Ah Bi led him to continue walking deeper into the forest, through dense bushes, and by an indoor river, and finally came to a battlefield established in the forest.
Surrounded by dense shrubs, the sun shines through the glass windows on the ceiling, and the fragrance of trees and flowers is smelled.
Ah Bi's age doesn't seem to be very old, just like Ash, or a few years older than him, and being able to guard a Daoist Pavilion at such an age shows that he is still very powerful.
In fact, Ah Bi is indeed quite good, he not only has a flexible mind, but also has a wealth of knowledge, has a certain amount of research on insect Pokémon, and is also inspired to become a Pokémon doctor, it can be said that he is a well-known genius boy in the Johto area!
While Xia You and him were standing on either side, Lijia also found a bench and sat down.
In the lounge on the side, a staff member came out of it and came to the battlefield to act as the referee of the battle.
The referee glanced at the two of them, and saw that Xia You and Ah Bi were ready, and said loudly: "Then start now, the battle between Ah Bi, the owner of the Hinoki Gym, and the challenger!" There are three Pokémon to use, and until all of the Pokémon are defeated, the match will be over! ”
As the defending side, Ah Bi was the first to take out the Poke Ball.
I saw him throw the Poké Ball hard, and with a flash of blue light, a Pokémon like a green spider appeared on the battlefield.
Ah Bi smiled lightly: "This is my first Pokémon, the silent warrior of the insect Pokémon - the round silk spider!" ”
As a kind of Pokémon with insect poison attributes, the height of the round silk spider is not even half a meter, its head and abdomen are light cyan, there is a white horn on its head, and a pair of black pupils, and there are three pairs of feet under the body, with yellow and dark cyan patterns on the feet, and on the back, there is also a human face pattern like a crying mourner.
It is said that the silk spider is a very patient Pokémon that will wait for its prey to be caught after filling the trap with thin and strong silk, and even during the waiting period, it will remain in the same position in its nest for several days, and even if its prey is trapped in its nest made of silk, it will wait motionless until it is in action after dark.
And its silk is so strong that even if you put a 10-kilogram rock, it won't break, and some fishermen will even use its tough silk to weave a net that can catch fish Pokémon!
