It wasn't vertical, but the boy who lost the lore almost fell to his knees.

Kem thanked Metagros and led Metagros towards the boy.

"Damn, you're the head of the Fighting Gym, but you use non-fighting Pokémon?"

"There's no rule that you can only use the type of fighting, I just put together a team that I have in mind in my own way."

Kem sat on Metagros' head and asked the boy with a blank face.

"Well, I still don't remember who you are, but do you understand what the curator of the hall has in mind? Novice trainer Jun. "

The boy who reacted to the word "newbie" glared at Kaim and roared.

"If you're a newcomer?! I've conquered the Gym Badge! Some people say I'm new."

"You're a newbie, and the starting line for Pokémon trainers is to get the gym badge. In fact, you probably haven't dropped a Pokémon here. ”

"Oh, it's not very popular!"

"Now that you've earned your gym badge, you're an official trainer.

"Gollum"

Unwilling to admit defeat, he tried to say everything he could think of, but he understood that everything was true, so he gritted his teeth and rebuked him.

"To be honest, you're still weak, I think the road to the championship will be very difficult, and you have to collect the Gym badge."

The Road to Champions is to screen those who participate in the Pokémon League Qualifiers. Just collecting the gym badge is already a formal trainer, but he's not top-notch. As a trainer, with peak ambitions, conquering the gym badge is nothing more than standing at the starting line.

"They are lax in their way of cultivating, their instructions are lax and sloppy, and they give useless instructions when it is up to the Pokémon to decide. It's a dream come true for someone who can only give such an order to become a Pokémon. Champion. ”

The boy lowered his head and clenched his fists in frustration. There are many memorable passages in Cam's words. I think of my strength, I believe in my abilities, and there is still a long way to go compared to the world I have not yet seen.

"I see. I'm just an ordinary person. The Pokémon faithfully followed my instructions. And yet they lost, and they lost because of me. "

"Haha I understand what you're trying to say, I don't have the talent and the mind to be a trainer.

The boy relaxed from his clenched fists and lowered his head. "The trainer resigned. Even if I continue to be a coach, nothing will come of it. ”

When Cam heard this, his former self overlapped with the appearance of the teenager. I used to think the same way, so I stopped being a coach for a while. His appearance was exactly the same as that of a teenager today.

"I'm bothering you so late, I'm going home."

"Coach, are you going to give up?"

Kem's usual voice fell behind him, full of sadness. Hearing this, the boy stopped and responded with his head down.

"yes, but it's not your fault. I don't have any talent or sanity, and I'm sure sooner or later it will become like this. ”

Kem said in a somewhat provocative tone to the back of the boy who made him vomit.

"'You're saying you're aware of the limits of your power?'

Hearing Cam's words, the boy turned around with a sad face and threw angry words at Cam.

"Shut up! A gifted person does not speak as if he knew a useless person! Ah, I see! I don't have a talent for training and I don't have a sense of fighting! I learned from the battle just now, and you brought it up! "Pokémon right! The order in battle was far beyond my imagination! I can't give you that instruction, I don't feel that way! I don't care what I do, I can't reach you."

"Honey Bee Ezo Kid"

"Phew!"

At the same time that the words of the slap were thrown on him, the wound medicine hit him directly, and the boy collapsed to the ground, unable to speak.

After confirming the boy's silence, Kem continued.

"Listen, review your battle before you shout about your talent or your judgment. For a child who can't even do this, and doesn't even understand the literal meaning of a battle, it's a hundred years too early to say that it was a battle. Talent or feeling. ”

After coming down from Metagross, Kem slowly approached the boy.

"Don't tell me you lost once and gave up. I know you can give up, but have you decided what your Pokémon will be? They've done their best, do you think you've had enough? I don't know, I don't even know that. Don't say you quit with no experience. Combat is not something you can do alone. ”

"But I have talent"

“？ Talent? Neither talent nor intellect is something that can be discovered in less than a year. You need to accumulate through the right effort, keep failing and failing, and even find them after the effort has been accumulated. Something that has existed since the beginning No, there are indeed people in the world who are called geniuses, but not all famous trainers are like this. ”

Of course, there are geniuses like red, green, and light, but they are exceptions. There aren't many coaches like them.

When the boy finally looked at Kem in Kem's words, Kem bent down and grabbed the boy's head.

"Boy, listen well, talent is something that can bloom, and reason is something that can be honed. Talent cannot be discovered by half-hearted efforts alone, and talent will not bloom. Your sanity can't be honed either. Don't "Don't underestimate Pokémon Battles." ”

"Talent is what blooms, and reason is what is refined."

"Unless you are a genius, the seeds of talent can only be found through great effort. Remember. ”

This is not what Sirona said, but the conclusion that Sirona and Kaim reached at the end of their master-apprentice relationship. It is true that Kem has no talent for combat and training, and it cannot be said that he has good judgment.

However, by accumulating the right efforts, I was able to find out "what Kem himself is suited to do". Keim is good at enduring and finding a way out, which is also a gift. After a lot of hard work and trying, I found it. By trying to match the style, I was able to give instructions that fit the style.

Along the way, he overcame many setbacks and difficulties. His path as a trainer was not glamorous, but muddy and painful. That's why I don't see a boy who says the same thing as I used to say.

"Just say you're quitting your job as a trainer. But what matters is what you get out of it and who you will be tomorrow. ”

"Who will you be tomorrow"

"Oh, I see, failure is frustrating and painful, there are many better people than me, you look at those people, they were born different from you, what kind of effort, ingenuity and friends would you put in?" What to overthrow it? "It's easy to lament that it's impossible, but only after all the right efforts have been made, and frankly, it's a waste of time."
