Chapter 532: 'Treasure Hunting'
[You waved goodbye to Tym, and the words of the other party's resignation still echoed in your mind]
Tem's words weren't very deafening, but they seemed to point the dancers in a new direction.
So much so that she was so immersed in it that she almost rolled down the long slope when she was in a hurry, thanks to the quick reflexes of the Vulcan Moth that accompanied her.
After a long climb, the dancers finally found the Frost Wipe Mountain Gym.
The perennial snow makes this building a lonely place far from town, but once inside, the soft warm light and the right temperature instantly make a difference.
[You inexplicably have a sense of reassurance]
The owner of the gym, Gu Luxia, is a boy who is dressed very tightly and has a delicate appearance, and Kashiwagi thought it was a girl when he first saw his pixel figure standing painting.
The dancers seem to have been mistaken.
[You're sorry for misidentifying the other person's gender]
In the Pokémon world, there always seem to be one or two characters who draw women and insist on men.
After signing up, the Frost Wipe Mountain Gym gave the dancers a test of [skiing according to the designated route], and Kashiwagi learned through an Internet search that Gurusha was a professional snowboarder and had won many awards.
But later he had to retire because of a serious injury.
Is letting the gym challenger ski as a way to remember Gurusha?
Unknown.
Anyway, it's not that difficult for dancers to just get started with skiing.
Her strong flexibility and balance skills allowed her to master the basics of skiing in just one fall, and successfully passed the test in one go.
Rao is trembling and talking, three sentences inseparable from the cold Guluxia, and he couldn't help but praise her.
The official battle begins.
The dancer had long heard that Gruxia was the strongest of all the Gym Owners, so he tried to deal with it as well as he could, including but not limited to the study of the Pokémon that Gruxia was good at.
[You're glad that the ground is dry enough and that there is no snow today.]
On the premise that there are no ice-type Pokémon in the team, Frost Wipe Mountain on a snowy day will give the challenger's Pokémon a variety of debuffs.
However, Rao is so, and the dancer and her Pokémon still suffer from Gurusha.
First of all, the [Snow Scene] brought by the Edelweiss Moth, with the [Aurora Curtain], made the originally fragile and fragile it extremely strong.
The huge tundra bear has also become elusive due to the [Snow Concealment] trait, which is full of confusion that causes headaches for dancers and carnival ducks, not to mention that it is more durable than the edelweiss moth.
It was finally defeated, and the more durable giant whale came.
[Thick Fat] trait plus [Snow] Weather Physical Defense Increase plus [Aurora Curtain]'s double attack power is halved......
It's a monster!
The Fire Attribute [Dance of Awakening] of the Flower Dancing Bird became like tickling, and in the end, it was the dancer who asked the Vulcan Moth to take out the [Butterfly Dance] and [Fire Dance] at the bottom of the box.
Countless illusory "Flame People" dance wildly towards the giant whale with unique steps and postures, and the shadows of Pokémon such as dancers and carnival wave dancing ducks can be seen from them.
The special effects can be said to have reached the extreme of pixels.
Undoubtedly, this is exactly the "trick" that Vulcan Moth conceived after observing Pokémon such as dancers and carnival wave dancing ducks for a long time and turning them into flames.
"Awesome." Kashiwagi gasped.
This move is undoubtedly similar to Ash's [Counterattack Shield], which is a pioneering use of special moves, relying on Pokémon's ability to control moves and the tacit understanding cultivated with trainers.
According to Dr. Kukuin, it is the result of the unity of the hearts and minds of Pokémon and Trainers.
The Battle of the Gym is coming to an end.
The last Pokémon of Guruxia is the Tanabata Blue Bird, which becomes an ice attribute after crystallization and a fierce battle with the Carnival Wave Dancing Duck, which becomes a single water attribute after being crystallized.
Thankfully, the snowy weather and the aurora curtain stopped in turn.
This relieved the great pressure on the dancers and the carnival wave dancing duck, and also prompted them to explode with all their might, and the fast and ruthless melee combat successfully took down the ice attribute Tanabata Blue Bird.
It can only be said that Brother Duck will never disappoint.
[You defeated the Frost Wipe Mountain Gym Master Gu Ruxia and obtained the Frost Wipe Mountain Badge]
The seventh badge arrived, and the dancer relaxed.
The two dojos in Frost Mo Mountain undoubtedly put pressure on her, otherwise she wouldn't have returned to school halfway to develop.
[You happily hugged the carnival wave dancing duck, and the strong sense of accomplishment made you extremely excited]
The dancers never imagined that they would be where they are today.
If there were no carnival waves and dancing ducks, no flowers and dancing birds, and every thing and everyone she experienced, perhaps she would still be indulging in resentment that she could not disobey the arrangement of her family.
This hard-won experience and experience obtained step by step during her trip with Pokémon is a treasure that she cannot part with no matter what.
'Treasure hunt'.
She gradually realized the meaning of this extracurricular activity, it does not need to be an object or even something, the important thing is - "harvest".
The enlightened dancer seems to have sublimated his whole being.
[You left the Frost Wipe Mountain Gym and walked towards the third district in the north]
The dancer hasn't forgotten that he still has someone he has to meet—
Merloco.
Descend the snowy slopes on the north side of Frost Wipe Mountain.
The dancers are finally able to meet their wild classmates again, and the treacherous environment on Frost Wipe Mountain is not for the sake of challenging the gym or living in Freezer Town, and few people will go up and down.
Habit prompted her to start gathering intel about the Skystar.
[You've made a little discovery]
Perhaps because the students who were able to travel to the vicinity of Frost Wipe Mountain were more powerful, they were not as apprehensive as the students near the school when talking about the Sky Star team.
will not take the initiative to provoke, but it will not be afraid of snakes and scorpions.
This also facilitates the intelligence gathering of dancers.
[You heard that there were indeed a lot of Celestial Star teams stranded near the sea in the North Third District recently, and hurriedly rushed to the direction they guided]
Screen flow.
The dancers came to a depression crisscrossed by water and grass.
The carnival wave dancing duck likes this environment very much, and it is rare to put aside the majesty of its duck brother and play a game that only children can play such as treading water.
The dancer, who was in a hurry, couldn't hold back, played with it, and called other Pokémon.
The jubilant atmosphere instead attracted the Celestial Star team members who patrolled around.
[You are carrying your shoes, looking at the two Celestial Star team members not far away, seeing that they are riding a motorcycle lizard and turning around, you hurriedly stretched out your hand to stop it]
However, now she still can't outrun the motorcycle lizard, so she can only watch them go away.
But.
It didn't take long for the two Celestial Star members to return.
Not only that, but he also brought a little boy with pink hair, dressed very elaborately, and holding a staff like a magician, not a few years older than the dancer.
[You hear the other person greeting you]
The person who came was none other than the boss of the three squads of the Pavilion Road, the designer of the Sky Star team car, Aldiga.
When the dancer heard that his family was designing and supplying uniforms for the Orange Academy, that the family was very rich and that the real person was also very cute, she could not understand why such a person was bullied.
[You explain your origin to him and ask if Merocco is over there]
The dancers, who received an affirmative answer, breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she learned from Ordiga that her name spread throughout the Celestial Team because of what she had said to Pina earlier, "You can't be friends without joining the Celestial Stars".
Everyone was interested in her, including Merocco.
It's just that the latter has a rough and cold personality on the surface, but she is actually a person who is not good at words, which also leads to her being bullied by other classmates despite her cute appearance, so her temperament has changed greatly.
[When you hear this, you suddenly realize why Merlot helped you, it turns out that everyone is bullied for similar reasons]
Similar experiences led them to come to the rescue.
Unlike the hostile treatment outside the base of the second team of the Pavilion Road, this time the dancers were surrounded by many people, and they also managed to meet Merocco, who had an unnatural face but did not walk away.
[You look at the crowd around you, and you think that if you changed a few months ago, you probably wouldn't be able to say anything]
The dancer took a deep breath and said everything he wanted to say.
Now she doesn't need to watch the carnival wave dancing duck to gain courage.
But as she spoke, she didn't know why Merocco blushed, and then the surrounding Celestial Star team members also began to coax.
[You realize that the current scene is a bit like a confession scene]
The dancer and Merocco made eye contact.
A huge exclamation point erupted from their heads in unison, and Merocco turned and ran away, once again drawing laughter from the Celestial team.
Later, under the hospitality of Ordiga, the dancers learn a lot about the Skystar.
Including that Skystar car.
"Hey...... One Plumm as the engine, two Boom as the rear drive, and two Red Lotus Armor as the power...... Five fight the other one, no wonder this chariot is so powerful. ”
Kashiwagi genuinely thinks Aldiga is powerful.
Five Pokémon drive an ultimate chariot or something, this is also a black technology, right? Although the black one is not very thorough.
Night.
The dancers held a bonfire party on the beach with the Sky Star Team, and her dance with Pokémon such as the Carnival Wave Dance Duck was well received by everyone.
She even pulled in Merocco, who was reluctant at first, but then persevered.
[Listening to their laughter, you really can't believe that the teachers and classmates said that those Tianxing team who are making trouble are these people in front of you]
[You know from Ordiga again that everyone hasn't been so happy for a long time]
The Tianxing team, which is not recognized by the school and classmates, is actually in a difficult situation, and if it is not for everyone to have the same experience, it is estimated that it will be difficult to persevere.
[You hear this, ask Aldiga if he knows that someone on the team is doing bad things]
Ordiga naturally knew it, otherwise their bosses wouldn't have let Pina make rules to restrain people, but unfortunately sometimes they were really out of reach.
It's just a bunch of students, after all.
[You are lost in thought, thinking about what you can do]
Screen flow.
The dancers left the station of the three teams of the Pavilion Road and said goodbye to Olgadi, Merocco and the others.
At parting.
Merocco, who had been passively accepting the dancer's smiling face, suddenly gave her a Flame Blade Ghost to take care of, indicating that the latter had fallen in love with the dancer at first sight at the bonfire.
[You look at the Cangyan Blade Ghost who is as calm as Merocco, but is actually nervous, and smiles and asks it to give more advice in the future]
The dancers saw it as a symbol of friendship with Merocco.
The latter immediately turned his head and ran away in shame.
Kashiwagi watched off the screen.
However, counting the Cangyan Blade Ghost and the skirt lady who was subdued before, the six teams of dancers have finally been gathered, and this one has simply embodied the [elite system] to the extreme.
The seventh gym was only fought by four Pokémon.
[You continue on your journey, and the next stop is the location of the last gym, Bagu Town]
——
Baking Town.
It is located on a huge rocky mountain southwest of Padia.
It took a lot of effort and I don't know how many caves did the dancers get to their destination.
【You've come to Bago Town, a town famous for its ceramics in Padia】
On the way, the dancers have passed through the wild classmates and cultivated some new friends, Miss Skirt and Cangyan Blade Ghost, both in terms of combat effectiveness and dancing.
[You look at the two Pokémon that are gradually growing and nod in satisfaction]
The most suitable for Miss Skirt is undoubtedly ballet, and the move it is good at is also the grass-attribute [Petal Dance], and the petals released during the rotation are extremely powerful.
And the dance of the Cangyan Blade Ghost surprised Kashiwagi quite a bit -
Sword Dance.
[Sword Dance] in the true sense of the word.
Instead of getting an attack buff like a normal Pokémon, you can actually turn your arms into twin swords and dance, and under the guidance of Pokémon such as dancers and Carnival Wave Dancing Ducks, the stiffness at the beginning gradually becomes quite beautiful.
It's just that it looks a little resentful......
Is it because of the Pokémon's personality?
Kashiwagi didn't know why, and watched the dancers enter the rookookan building.
The owner of the Bake Gym is named Lipu, a fashion magazine model with her own makeup brand.
[You look at the lady with a beautiful face, and suddenly remember that you have seen her on a billboard in the center of Brewing Light City]
But the dancer didn't expect that the test of the Bagu Gym would be led by her most respected battle teacher, Huang Bai, and she could dance a song of "Joy, Anger and Joy Gymnastics".
Was this deliberately let her through?
The dancer had no idea that the test of the last gym would be so simple, easier than any of the tests he had experienced before.
It's easy to go over and over again.
【You paid attention to the gym challenge】
Obviously, she didn't relax because of this, but felt that this was a trap, a trap dominated by Huang Bai, the teacher of battle studies, so that she should not be complacent.
[When you took the class of Barberry, you experienced a similar situation]
As one of the top powerhouses among the gym owners, Lipu is also worthy of dancers to be wary of her strength.
The dancers have also made quite a lot of preparations for this battle, from the style of the flower dancing birds to the moves of the Pokémon, all of which have reached the current limit of her and the carnival wave dancing ducks.
The final gym battle begins.
The vulcan moth is a strange unicorn with superpower attributes in general, and under the restraint of attributes, [Butterfly Dance] and [Insect Song] make a perfect breakthrough.
The dancer who won the first game did not dare to fight, and changed to a light and light style of flower dancing bird against Lipu's Shanado, and the ghost attribute of the awakening dance successfully won it.
The third re-exchange.
Cangyan Blade Ghost is still the trend of attribute restraint, but perhaps because he joined the team late, his strength did not keep up, and it was more difficult to fight.
But it still won.
The fourth exchange, with Miss Skirt versus Eloredo, was very smooth at first, and the combination of ballet and [Petal Dance] was quite harmonious.
But he didn't expect that Eloredo's thin body was extraordinarily resistant, and he dragged it until the end of the petal dance, and when Miss Skirt was in chaos, he won with [Cross Scissors], forcing the dancer to send out Sweet Leng Mei and take it away with a tropical kick.
At last.
The dancer sends out her trump card, the Carnival Wave Dancing Duck against Lipu's Lady Blossom.
The only Pokémon in her team that integrates war dance in a complete sense, and it is also her most trusted Pokémon, with the invincible posture of Aether Crystal Water, and the outstanding exclusive move [Flowing Water Whirling Dance].
brought her the last badge representing the Eighth Avenue Pavilion Challenge and the final chapter of the trip to the Padia region-
Bake the badge!
[You defeated Ripp, the owner of the Bake Gym, and obtained the Bake Badge]
On the road of 'treasure hunting', the dancers have written to the last line!
