The magic flames tried to envelop Kusito again, but as before, he quickly extinguished them with cream.

"This man's fighting style is so naughty, it's hard to imagine his normal character!"

"It's my style"

If you do this, the cream will stick to your body again. If you do a physical attack, the cream will get in the way, and if you pay off the cream, you'll burn it with flames while doing this action, in an infinite loop. This is how Moship fights to suppress physics. Of course, I think there are many ways to overcome this situation. But at least for Kuchito, the situation must have been very difficult!

"Then it's Raster Canon!"

"Leave!"

If you can't shoot closely, use the raster Canon again. However, Kuchito is not good at special attacks in the first place. As before, it is easy to deflect with Magic Radiance. In addition, due to the magical light released from the center of the cream, the cream near the horsewhip spread out in all directions, temporarily obscuring Kuchito's view.

"I guess especially doesn't work at all!? Where is Moship!? ”

Mohep took the opportunity to hide. Needless to say, the location is inside the cream, but the problem is that the area is too wide. Every time an attack collides, the cream bursts, so it spreads so much that you can't tell where it's hiding from the angle of the beat. The next attack is inevitable.

"'Magic Ray'"

"Slightly less!?"

Suddenly, Cusito's feet burst into flames, and he was thrown out of the air and fell directly to the ground. A blow from Mohip who has dived beneath the cream. Although it is impossible to use magic flames because it is inside the cream, magic light is Moshipp's specialty. Even with a mediocre opponent, you can't do so much damage by designing something like this.

"Well, the horsewhip"

"Maho"

Moship is glad that the fight is going according to plan. Although his appearance warmed me, there were some things that bothered me a little.

The way of fighting is a bit awkward

It's not hard to see why their tactics don't work well together, as they're using Pokémon they're not familiar with. However, even when you think about it, it still feels awkward or unusual.

I wonder what Mr. Poplar is thinking?

I glanced sideways at the Gym Master's appearance and turned my attention to the battlefield, thinking that I had to concentrate on the Gym mission now.

Philia is a good trainer after all

Pokémon battle between Freya and Beat. Watching this scene from the special seat gave me the impression that the name of the second place in the Sinnoh League was not just for show-off. That's what I'm talking about. What is your Pokemon good at? What can it do? It is because he is deeply aware of this that he is able to fight with so many hole cards.

You're such a disappointing trainer, your fighting style is full of pink and no complaints. But the personality of the trainer did not suit me very well.

If his personality wasn't more twisted, I wouldn't have taught him anything. But from the point of view of the general public, he is a talent without a doubt. This is a coach with a bright future. The question is

It seems that you have not fully understood my teachings.

Even now, he is trying to break through with the Iron Head and the Radiance Cannon, which are strong points for the Magic Whip, but in addition to all the moves that can be used so far, such as Smelting, Phantom, Magic Light, Demon Flame, etc. , Philia uses including cream?? A variety of moves to dodge, deflect and counterattack.

It will attack one way or another. It is true that type compatibility is important in Pokémon battles. But hey

After all, this guy may look a little distorted at first glance, but if you look closely at the content of the battle, he is very obedient. His personality is also twisted, but at the end of the day, he just wants to be recognized, which is a childish and straightforward motive. People around me may find this annoying, but for me it's lovely. The most important thing is that people who are honest with themselves like this will grow in the future. This hunger pang is what I like most about this guy.

That's what my gut tells me. This guy will definitely become a big shot.

That's why I want to raise this guy.

For this, I guess I will only point you in the right direction.

Let him be the child who carries the future of Garrel. I slowly opened my mouth.

It's powerful. I know that, but can just changing Pokemon change so many things?

Hit your opponents. Know where your opponent is dodging and attacking. Try to hit the ground to steal your opponent's vision. I couldn't help but gnash my teeth when I saw Kuchito doing all sorts of things and being able to surpass them all and come back to me. I still remember fighting Ionoy of Fria in Lateral Town, where I was crushed by his overwhelming force. Still, I remember that the game wasn't that bad. The war situation is worse now than it was then. Whatever I do, everything pays off, and what I want to do simply doesn't work.

It's just too crowded

The battlefield has never felt so cramped. The place was controlled to such an extent.

In terms of type compatibility, there should be an absolute advantage, but why is it so big

I've proven myself in Horizontal Town that just because your type has an advantage doesn't mean you can't be pushed. But even then, it's too pale.

Just as a strange thought flashed through my mind, I heard the old lady say something in a low voice. I began to break out in a cold sweat, thinking that the thoughts in my head had been revealed. At the same time, I also scolded myself in my heart.

What am I talking about? I don't want to admit this result, but it's because of my lack of ability. It is a shameful act to accuse Cusito here

I didn't quite understand why, but the old lady saw how I felt and took the lead. I was sure he was reading the words that came to my mind, so my next sentence was another scolding. With that in mind, I slowly turned my gaze to the old lady.

"Which trainer are you now?"

"Teeth?"

However, what the old woman said to me made no sense at all. What kind of coach am I? Such a thing should be obvious, no one sees it.

"Who spotted me? Maybe you turn a blind eye? ”

"You're such a noisy guy. I'm still eighteen years old at heart. ”

"There's a limit for the old lady's sake, I'll say it again. This is what a fairy gym trainer should do!? \"

After saying this, I felt like I had an electric shock in my head.

That's right, I'm a leprechaun gymnastics coach now. With that in mind, I'm trying to recall my actions so far. What attack method did I use?

Today, I'm still using and raster Canon

The act of exploiting the opponent's weakness with secondary weapons and counterattacking in an unfavorable situation is certainly important. However, just with that in mind, there's no reason to ignore the attacks that the Pokémon you're currently fighting with are good at. This can be clearly seen by looking at the Gym Curator and Freya so far. Didn't Mr. Yarrow use grass-based moves against fire? Didn't Lulina use water-based moves against grass-based moves? Freya used an immortal move in this battle, as it was a difficult move to deal with. Use on opponents. Didn't he use it at all? I'm sure that's not true. Of course, Kuchito, who has a variety of steel combinations, also has a certain degree of attainment in steelmaking. However, this Kusito grew up at the Arabesque Stadium. If that's the case, this kid should be best at pranks, fairy-like skills. But I was so obsessed with this trick that I only used marksmanship.

My vision narrowed

Since it is a fairy wall, you must be familiar with that road.

Since I've been specializing in abilities until now, I've been a little lax when it comes to dealing with elves. In fact, the fact that Filia now has the upper hand in the battle of the goblins is proof of this. If this is the case, the bullying training that the old lady has received so far will be meaningless.

Even if I can use it on Philia now, it's a fixed move based on super technology, is that what it means?

At this point, I have a new understanding.

It's about the type of Brimont.

By evolving from Tebrim, a new elven type has been added. In addition, the newly added Bonita and Kiria also appear with the elves along with the superpowers. However, my fighting style is basically only for the psychic system. This was already evident in the previous battle with Yonur, where the magic light could barely attack Yonour. If I had known how to use magic radiance effectively, I would have been able to fight in a variety of ways like Freya did this time.

Before I knew it, I was learning how to fight my buddies.

I connected the dots and finally felt like I kind of understood why the old lady was telling me what pink was. His demeanor was completely different from when I was under President Ross, and although he was strict as a mentor, he was accurate and friendly in his words and deeds, and had an eye on my future.

Well, at least I'll thank you a little.

Research how to fight goblins. Provide a venue against Philia. And provide a place for yourself. In every way, the environment is more fulfilling than before.

The most ironic thing is that it was only done after being disqualified, okay.

If I choose a large venue like the stadium to play a rematch with Filia, I will definitely face a backlash because of my actions. The old lady also made an excuse not to speak.

There's nothing I can't do, without a little gratitude. And

At first I was arrogant, thinking that I couldn't lose to outsiders. But now, I want to fight him as a trainer. Perhaps, it would be a good idea to repay the old lady who has helped me so much.

Grandma's seat, I can't help it, so I'll do it.

I felt my heart suddenly lighten. and

I feel like the scenery is brighter now.

"It's Shangjiudaku."

Hearing Mr. Poplar's words, Bit, who lowered his head slightly, burst out with the technique that had been taught to him for the first time since the beginning of this battle. Following this technique, Cusito uses the large jaw at the back of his head to sweep the cream off his body while eating the surrounding cream.

What's changed? But I couldn't rest.

"Maheip, 'Flame of Magic'"

Although I was skeptical about this move, I also chose to attack the cream's fragile move. The glittering flames began to pour into Cusitto again. but

"Kuchito spits out the cream you're chewing"

"What!?"

Kuchito extinguished the flames by spitting out the pieces of cream that had accumulated in his mouth towards the magic flames. I was taken aback by this sudden reaction, and the movement stopped instantly. Cusito saw this as an opportunity, suddenly approached him and tried to get into his pocket.

Sure enough, you can't let the iron head hit me directly

Deploy protective frost and prepare for an attack by Kuchito. With this, I can take at least one blow. However, once again, the pace exceeded my expectations.

Kuchito dared to throw himself into the cream wave and dived into Moshipp's arms with his body covered in cream. As the distance between him and Mohip is reduced to 0, Moship's body receives a series of attacks from all sides, which is typical of joking attacks.

Attack while blowing off cream with playful movements!? His modus operandi changed suddenly

In addition to attacking opponents multiple times from all directions, detailed running moves are also included. Of course, this action alone could not completely dispel the cream, but at that time, Cusito increased the amount of deflected cream by making a very large action. Of course, it consumes a lot of Kuchito's stamina due to the extra moves required, and most importantly, it can more easily deal with opponents who swing more than usual. However, Mosip's slowness makes it difficult for us to judge this. In the case of the magic whip, which is not very fast, even if you increase the movement a little, it will not be able to dodge. Accurate attacks hit this weak point.

"I decide how I want to live."

The words echoed in my ears.

As soon as he said this, Bit's face slowly rose.

"So now I've decided."

"Huh!?"

The atmosphere changes.

"I may not be able to reach it yet, but I will beat you, and I will beat Grandma."

Hit raised his head and met his gaze.

"As the strongest fairy messenger in Galar, I will show you the best pink."

I had bright spots in my eyes

There was a sparkle in those eyes that I had never seen before.

That's all, but when you think about the beat, it's obviously a big change. Oddly enough, from that moment on, I felt that the uniform he was wearing had become unusually gorgeous. At this point, he had grown into a trainer worthy of being an immortal user.

I'm really looking forward to seeing you at the stadium.

Although he was forced to start over after a painful counterattack by Kuchito, judging by the current battle, Kuchito's limits have been laid in front of him. Therefore, the outcome of this battle is known to me, Beate, and perhaps Mr. Poplar.

Now my victory is assured.

That's why I'm looking forward to the next fight.

A stadium battle that can be fought against the intense pace from the start.

"I've said it laterally, but I'll say it again. And so on."

"Yes! I trained with my grandma and surpassed you."

Fueled by our heat, Mohip and Kuchito clashed fiercely.

It didn't take long for me to be declared victorious. However, on this battlefield, there is no joy of victory, no regret of defeat, only the silent flame flickering when eyes collide.

"It's the most pink fight, and I think Galel's future is still safe."

In this case, Ms. Poplar's tweet quietly disappeared without reaching us.

"Sigh. I'm glad we won somehow. ”

After the gym mission, in the rest area of the Arabesque Stadium, Mosip, who had contributed to the battle, and Kilia, who asked to go out, were taken out of the goal, and the three spent a relaxing time together.

I remember that the order in which I took on the Gym quest was me, Mary, Yongli, and Hope, so now that my Pokémon has recovered, I thought it would be Mary's or Yongli's turn to start, so I played Bofen. Hold in your mouth and breathe deeply.

What I replay in my head is the confrontation with the beat. Although it wasn't a full-fledged battle from the start because it was using a Pokémon that I wasn't familiar with, I was quite surprised by Kuchito's excellent moves halfway through. If things were like that from the beginning, I honestly think it's going to be a good fight, and I don't even know who is going to win. That's the amazing thing about his serious rhythmic skills, and there is a bright spot in his eyes.

"I think it's a shame that it's gone again after the fight."

When I stroked Moshipp, I remembered Bit's face after the fight. I think he would make a better impression if he kept his eyes looking pretty, but it was up to him, maybe it was just his own way of changing things or having his own routines. Now that I think about it, I don't understand why it's okay to change the eye highlights at will.

"Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next fight."

"Can that little parrot be given to me too?"

As I looked forward to the next time we met again at the stadium, a hand reached out in front of me and grabbed one of my coffins. However, because of his unique tone, I didn't have to look to know who he was. When I turned my attention to the owner of my hand and made an almost certain prediction, I found that it was Mary. He didn't seem to expect that I would be rejected when I asked him a question, so he put a parrot in his mouth, made a happy face and answered. Judging by the faint sweat stains, this must have been a very fierce battle. Just like my tired body craves sugar.

"There's a lot more, you can eat as much as you want."

"I'll let you do it. Is Mopeco okay too? ”

"Of course"

"Thank you. Come out, Mopeko. ”

"Muppet"

Speaking of eating Morpeco, it seems best to take it out of the bag. Take it out of your bag and put an extra little parrot. However, the Mopeco summoned by Mary turned out to be hungry, and it seems that it was not Maupeco who she sent to the battlefield.

"I'm tired and I'm sorry for the fighters I beat, but I didn't know they were so strong."

"He's definitely one of the most promising winners. Chairman Ross's recommendation is not just fake. ”

\"That being said. Moreover, the atmosphere was different from what I heard\"

\"Ah~, I think that's true about this. \"

Because I. Somehow, I swallowed the phrase and agreed. There is no doubt that the fight grew because of me, so my heart is heavy every time the difficulty of the task of the gymnasium of the Arabesk Stadium increases. Even if the people around me didn't know, I felt that Poplar would keep poking her until the end.

I'm really sorry, future challenger

Marianne tilted her head as she ate the puffin, but I held back. I think it's better not to know. Mainly because of their psychological problems.

\"Well, now think about it, who did Marie send? It's one-to-one, right? \"

"This time I asked Docroger. I'm a little disappointed as a dark player, but I don't think I'm arrogant enough to think I can beat the best player. ”

\"Duku, the fighting system is indeed an important Pokémon for the dark line that is not good at goblins, but ah, I have other lines on hand, isn't it strange? \"

I think it's unusual for someone with a uniform type to have different types, but when I think about it, Mr. Denji is an electric type gym but carries octane, and Mr. Oba is a fire type Keim. Despite the fact that it is one of the Four Heavenly Kings, it is not uncommon to have Pokémon other than their favorite type, such as having Forvarid, Mimilop, and Haganah on hand. Most of the time, people who have already taken precautions against their type are included in the program to counteract their type, but it seems that some people are included simply because they are their favorite companions. There are no particularly strict rules about this, so it is up to the person in charge of the gym to decide.

"There's a type that mimics my big brother. I feel like I respect Big Brother in this way. ”

"I see."

In that case, I can't leave the fight with Brother Mary to Moshipp. Maybe I'm thinking too far?

"Still, I struggled, and I didn't expect the opponent to be Kuchito"

"Ahaha, I'm steel?? tie, so the effect will not be so good. ”

"I'm really glad I won"

"Yes, thank you for your hard work~"

As I slowly stroked Mary's head, which was lying on the table, she relaxed even more, squinting her eyes and feeling a little comfortable. Things like that are funny and funny.

Now, are Yongli and Hope okay?

Yongli hates being defeated, so she's worried that her movements will make unnecessary noise, while Hope just cares about how she's in a slump. In particular, I once asked Marie about the cause of her downturn, and it seemed to have something to do with the best, so I was even more worried. I don't know how the old bests were, but today's bests are quite rounded, so in that sense, they have the potential to be more rounded, so I have high hopes for them

"So, how long are you going to touch me?"

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's just out of habit."

As I thought about this, I patted myself on the head, only to be scolded by Marie. He seemed embarrassed, and I couldn't tell if it was out of anger or embarrassment, but my face flushed slightly, and I lowered my hands at the sound of Marie's words.

"Absolutely..."

"Ahaha, after all, as a long-term traveler, it's hard to break the habit of that time"

"I'm really curious what kind of trip you've been through"

"Next time I'll talk about this in front of everyone."

When I suddenly looked at the nearby clock, I realized that quite some time had passed. If my prediction is correct

"Hey! Frya! Mary! \"

\"Ah, Yongli is here. \"

"Looks like you've made it through safely."

I saw Yongli running out from behind the Arabesque Stadium. My heart was filled with joy as he happily waved to me, and I could see at a glance that, as Marie had said, he had passed safely.

\"Yuri, thank you for your hard work~. Yes, Bofen. \"

"Wow! Thank you! It's delicious! ”

"Torima, congratulations to Yongli for his breakthrough."

"Marie, how do you know I want to thank you too!? I didn't say anything! \"

"If you're that excited, anyone will know."

\"Y-You look so energetic? \"

\"Yes""

"Uh-oh, hey. Now that I think about it, I'm curious too, but that's how Bate is\"

Then, with Yuri and the others, we talked about things that everyone except me had a bad impression of Bitt, such as his character becoming quieter, his atmosphere getting better, and how strong he was. A little excited. I was a little happy about it and managed to keep my cheeks from sagging.

I'm glad that Rabbit, Kalai, and even Yongli were able to break through safely. Yuri's impression of the beat, which I had been worried about before, has improved a lot, so I'm relieved.

Now, what happened to hops?

Only the last man remained.

I hope you can get through it safely

With such hope, I took another bite of the puffin.

"That's it."

"Please come back. Elzun. \"

"Go back, Kuchito."

The battle ended with Mr. Topol's declaration. After the announcement, I put Eletun back on the ball who had fallen in front of me.

I lost again

I've lost to the Gym Leader before, but this is the first time I've lost in the Gym mission. The opponent was Byatt, whom I fought immediately after leaving Engine City and was completely defeated. I was a little excited to hear that Poplar had changed the content of the Gym Mission, but when I saw Bit suddenly appear, I felt like I had been poured cold water. The scene flashed by, and bad memories came flooding back to my heart. But at the same time, I had a hunch that this might be an opportunity for revenge. This time, however, the result was also a fiasco. Nothing good, and it's easier to lose than before.

"Uh, we've been losing to Freya, Marie, and Yongli, so it's great to win. \"

"What nonsense are you talking about? As long as you keep losing, I won't forgive you. ”

"I know. However, this time it may be the other party who is wrong. ”

"If you're going to complain, you'll have to go back to Moship's Cream Swamp"

"Ah, I see! I'm sure you'll give up that heartburn scene seriously, does this old lady have a penchant for torture? ”

The other party seemed excited, but I couldn't hear it at all. I just lost. That's the only fact that flashes through my head.

After all, I am

Freya, Mary, and even Yongli were able to break through, but I couldn't. I was supposed to be ahead of Freya and them, but by the time I opened the lid, I had already caught up and overtaken. There is no one around me anymore.

"What are you doing sitting there?"

"Huh!?"

The voice of Bit, who had been fighting just now, spoke to me when I was muffled. Hearing that voice, I realized for the first time that I was sitting on the ground and quickly stood up. The gym's mission is over. If you stay here forever, you'll be a nuisance to the next person. I think that's what he's here for. I'm angry that this person told me this, but it's the right thing to do, so I don't want to object. However, I just didn't understand, I just did what the guy said, and maybe it was because of that feeling that I lowered my head and tried to leave bluntly.

"Waiting"

"What"

The sound of a beat came from behind me. To be honest, I don't want to hear him right now. I want to get out of here as soon as possible. But his aura wouldn't allow me to leave here.

"I have something to tell you."

All I hear from the mouth of the bit is the information given to me. I finally want to take it home. There's nothing bad about what this guy says.

"I'll be honest with you. You're weaker than the last time we fought. ”

"What!? It's not true that I'm properly trained and on the same level as everyone else. Make sure that the "

"When you make excuses like that, you're weak. When you blame Pokémon for the reason for your loss. ”

"Huh!?"

But I didn't think it would be good to ignore him and go home, so I listened, but what I heard was one-sided and demeaning to me. But I can't respond to those words. Indeed, what I'm saying now sounds like we're losing because everyone isn't strong enough. On top of that, I can't forgive myself for not realizing it until I was told.

"Isn't that like looking at your own past? Really, if you just exposed yourself in such a disgusting way, I totally understand why the old lady is angry. ”

Even if I wanted to say something, my mouth wouldn't move. Bit continued to speak, ignoring the way I looked.

"Anyway, I've seen you use Elzun in the Side City, but it doesn't look like you're used to it at all. If that's the case, if you're fighting Pokémon, it's a hundred times more troublesome. "yes, I wouldn't be naïve enough to lose a battle like this."

I've had a lot of harsh things said to me since just now. It's sure to hurt like a knife into my heart. It was painful and I wanted to cover my ears, but the beat continued to speak, as if not letting me do it.

"You're not that dexterous, you can't be a champion."

It's a pity. When you are told what you want by someone who has a vendetta, you will naturally hit him with your fists, and even blood oozes from your bitten lip.

"That's all I want to say. If you make the same expression the next time you try, I really hope you give up the gym challenge and at least stand next to that person. "Shape."

When I saw Bit talking and walking towards the back, I wanted to shout out to him and ask him what he knew. But I don't know what to do. However, there must be a part of me in my mind that I don't feel comfortable with the fighting

"What do you want to tell me to do? I do not know. ”

I didn't realize the true nature of this discomfort, and all I could do was blurt it out.

After that, I don't remember how I left the Arabian stadium. I felt like someone was calling me, but I wasn't in that mood right now I just wanted to be alone, so I ignored the sound and went to the park in the corner of the vine town.

Since the Gym mission is still ongoing, it's not yet lunchtime, but there are no people around this park, and it really doesn't seem to have a sense of existence, and even wild Pokémon don't exist.

I sat on a swing hanging from the branches of a large tree characteristic of the town of Arabesk, rowing aimlessly.

Only the squeaking of swings echoes in this space, giving you the illusion that you are the only one in this world. It seems to reflect the fact that I am now more neglected and more miserable.

In Horizontal Town, I lost four times to Mr. Onion. And here, Yuri, who couldn't even complete the gym quest and started the journey at the same time, managed to break through.)

They'd leave me alone and I felt like I couldn't catch up with the others.

I don't know if this is the end of it

You just need to get up again. That's what I thought. However, the words of the beat were too heavy for me to bear. His words are so true that I have nothing to say. But still

I don't like this, I don't want it to end like this

I couldn't give up on my dreams and I didn't know what to do, so my head hurt.

"I've finally found it."

Someone please let me know. Just as I was about to say that, a voice came from above. I was surprised by the sound I heard, even though there was no one else around, and when I looked up, one of my goals appeared.

"Freya? \"

"Yahoo"

As she rushed to the swing next to her, Felia greeted her. As much as I would love her to teach me, I would also like to be alone, and I would like to be away from Freya, but I was too lazy to move my body, so I had to stay.

The squeak of the swing is doubled. However, there are still moments of silence because we don't know what to say. The atmosphere was a little sour

After about ten or twenty minutes, I finally tried to run away and tried to walk again

"I heard you lost to Bit?"

Freya's words made my head heat all at once. Before I knew it, I rushed to Julia and shouted.

"Are you here to insult me too?!"

Oh, that's bad

I know Freya's character well. He's not the kind of person who would do such a thing. However, due to a momentary emotion, I ended up losing my temper. I don't think anyone would be mad at something like this. Because if it were me, I would definitely be angry. I'm sure Philia will eventually give up on her. I can't help but think of such a future.

As I spoke, I slowly walked away from Freya. Because I don't think I have the right to chase Julia's back anymore.

However, my movements were stopped by a thin arm. I was surprised to find that my movements suddenly stopped, and I stared at Freya's face again. His eyes were staring straight at me, and they were so powerful, like telling me not to look away

When Philia realized that I wasn't running away, she said slowly.

I felt like my brain was being hit by this sentence.

I sighed and walked towards the Subomi Lodge in the vine town. I was feeling tired, probably because I was doing something I wasn't used to, but at the same time I was a little worried about whether it was the right thing to do. but

This should be fine

At least, that's what I think based on my experience. I'm sure this will convey my feelings to him, who is somewhat similar to me. But to be honest, I should have figured out what to do earlier and called him out. I heard from Sonia and Mary that he was worried, but I couldn't help but regret it because I should have acted sooner. In that respect, I'm grateful to have created this opportunity. I received my phone after the gym assignment.

"Thank you for your understanding of the champion's brother. I tell you, I only say the right thing! Please don't get me wrong. ”

Sorry, I smiled when I got the call. By the way, the current sentence is an excerpt from the last few lines, and before this sentence there is a bulleted list of what he said about skipping. Because of this, it's still easy to explain and give advice.

Actually, I'm curled up a bit, and I'll have to thank you later.

"Where did you say Hope was?"

When I read the email again and smiled, Yuri and Mary, who were also looking for a hit, joined me. Well, I forgot to contact him after finding the jump

"I—I'm sorry. I found the jump but I forgot to contact him"

"yes~I've been looking for you two for a long time~"

"Well, I'm glad you were found safely. So, is Hope okay? ”

Yuri replied with a slight look of anger on her face, while Mary had a slight shock on her face, and then their expressions quickly turned to worry.

He came out of the arabesque stadium, usually sunny and sunny, but when he came out he looked depressed, ignored our words, and ran away. I can understand why they look so anxious. In fact, the moment I came face to face with Jump again, I felt like my already anxious heart exploded even more.

"He's frustrated and looks frustrated."

"I see"

“… So what's going on? ”

The two of them wanted to know what the hell was going on because I was involved in something like this. To this, I will answer.

"It's okay now, I don't think you have to worry."

"Really?"

Yuri still looks worried. I know it's hard to trust my childhood friend, even when I see her in a way I've never seen before, even when she tells me it's okay. But I still want you to believe something, so I keep saying it's okay. Because

"Jump is definitely a strong Pokémon trainer."

I prayed silently, believing that tomorrow's gym mission would be passed. "Are you here, you're going to have a lot of fun this time, aren't you?"

The next day, I lost to Fight in the gym mission challenge and heard various stories of Beat and Frya. If it's true, I'll open it for a few days and try again. I felt like I couldn't compete with him mentally and physically yet, so I felt like I needed some time to settle down in the wilderness. However, what Julia said to me yesterday

"Gotta try again tomorrow. You okay. With the jump power now, you can definitely win. ”

That's it.

If it was usual, I would have happily told her and leave it to me, but to be honest, I couldn't believe what Freya was saying now. But at the same time, I really can't think of any objections to Freya.

"What if I say something?"

"Oh, oh, I'm going to break through today, and I'm sure I'll win."

"Wow, this answer is so unreliable, if you don't perform well today, I'll crush you hard."

Bit glared at me with a sharper gaze than yesterday. I was a little frightened by that look, and the hand holding the demon ball was trembling slightly.

Can I really believe it?

As doubts swirled in my mind, I remembered what Fria had told me yesterday.

"Hap, you can't be like Dandsang. \"

My head, which had calmed down, began to boil again, but this time I used strong self-control to stop myself from catching it. From the moment my eldest brother won the championship as a child, it has always been my dream to become a coach like my eldest brother. I don't think anyone is not angry when someone says something that seems to deny it, even in a roundabout way. In fact, if this is a joke, I would probably be angry. But these are the words of my esteemed coach Freya. People around her might say she trusts him a little too much, but the abilities she's proven by her fights so far make her the second closest to Anniki I can trust, at least for me.

Calm down, you should be well aware of Freya's character

Take a deep breath and calm your mind. There must be a reason why Freya said such things. I have to calm down now to believe this and listen to what follows.

"Yes. I know I've said something terrible to you. Anyway, I'm ready to be beaten thank you. Just as Hope expected. ”

"As for Freya, even though our relationship is still short, I think she understands me."

"No"

That's what I'm honest thinking right now. Hearing this, Freya withdrew her gaze and scratched her cheek with her fingertips. This is something that Freya often does when she hides her embarrassment. I've been doing this a lot lately when I've been with Yongli and Marie, so it's easy for me to learn.

"Anyway, first of all, Hope. I have something to tell you, including what Bit said. ”

"Ahh

The information I got from there was a summary of what Bit said and what Frya herself said about what she thought of me.

"Tomorrow's battle will take place in Ulu. Do you like it? ”

"Huh?"

This is the Pokémon I designated for use in the Gym quest.

"You two, take out your Pokémon."

"Let's go, Kuchito!"

"Let's go! Whining! ”

As Mr. Poplar spoke, Ulu and Kusito appeared at the same time. The two Pokémon jumped out in high spirits and glared at each other in the center. However, by activating Kuchito's combat traits, Kuchito won the opening confrontation. Uru's body has become stronger, but her attack power has decreased.

Looking at the battlefield like this, my mind swirls in the present tense.

To be honest, I still didn't quite understand what Fria was talking about, but when I tried to ask, I was told that this was something I should figure out on my own, so I didn't get an answer

Since I didn't receive this reply, my trust in Philia dropped. I want you to think about it. Ulu is the normal type, while his opponent is the Skinning Fairy type. I won't be hit by the opponent's over-the-top skills, but if I don't attack, my primary weapon will be halved. In addition, as we saw earlier, the characteristics are different. For Ulu, who focuses on physical attacks, this is an opponent that can only be described as a disadvantage. However, I was told to wear this Ulu for battle.

It's weird, you think you're going to win

If this were for an average trainer, I would understand and give in. However, my opponent had a better rhythm than me. Now, I don't think I can fight such an opponent with a Pokémon that is at a disadvantage. furthermore

Now that I've chosen Ulu as my best buddy, I'm sure his head is full of complaints about me

I don't know what this guy who probably hates me will think. I'm sure no one likes to hear complaints. That's why I don't want to release it. Even now, with his chin in his hand, as if thinking about something, I couldn't help but wonder what he was going to say to me.

"I see, woo. I didn't expect much from this emote, but the Pokémon you chose were not bad, let me give you some hope. \"

Tooth?

However, the words I heard were unexpectedly complimentary. What confused me even more was the words thrown at me, he should know more about poke compatibility than I did.

What the hell is going on

"So let's get started"

"Kuchito, 'Iron Head'!"

"Huh!? Woo 'round'"

I was listening intently to Beate's words, not noticing Mr. Topol's opening declaration, a step behind, and conceded the first move to my opponent, so I could only go defensive. I was anxious from the beginning.

Due to his short stature, Cusito's head quickly burrowed into Uru's arms due to his quick movements, piercing Uru's body. However, Uru's defense also increased because he curled up in advance, and although he was repulsed and rolled, he managed to stand up as if nothing had happened.

There will be an uncomfortable feeling there.

Hurt less than I expected?

Even though he improved his defense, he was too weak to take anything on. Although he was skeptical about this, if he continued to think about it, it would only leave an opportunity for the other party to take advantage of, so he moved on to the next step.

"Wool is Nidojeri"

"'Shangjiude'"

Uru started running like a counter-attack, turning in front of Kuchito and preparing to kick Kuchito twice with his hind legs. Cusito, on the other hand, had the idea of opening his mouth wide and biting his hind legs together.

At this rate, I can stop it!

What if it's Freya at this time? How about Big Brother? How about Yongli? I try to think about what other people would do

No! I didn't have that time, and even if I could think of something like that, it would happen to me right now

The thought of Freya saying to me, "You can't be like Dandesang," made my heart even more confused. If I can't be like Big Brother, I wonder if I can't be like everyone else either? I didn't know what to do because of this anxiety. But if you don't, you'll be defeated

All I could do was scream and cheer, so I screamed the name with all my might.

Uru replied loudly as if responding to my voice, then took a step further from where he was holding Nidogiri and put his foot on the back of Kuchito's big chin as he took a bite. I plugged it in.

The attack that hit the vital point made Kusito's body tremble and fly backwards. And, thanks to the fact that he carefully withdrew his legs before the back of his head was closed, he didn't look like he was being hit back.

Uru's expression seemed to say, "What is this?" ”

When I saw that face, my mind flashed back to the moment I completed my first gym mission, the Turf Stadium. I was very happy at that time with my three animals, Ulu, Ape Cult and Ahem Titchi.

Thinking about it now, I don't know how I fought at the time

From then on, I beat the gym leader, moved on, and made new friends that I couldn't help but look forward to tomorrow. When I think about it, I think about that moment, there must have been something more eye-catching than Anikki's back.

The balls are arranged in a belt holder. Freya told me that my Pokémon here have also turned into the ones before I lost my rhythm and changed them. Friends who overcome difficulties together and laugh together. Of course, for those friends who have lost and changed because of the fight, I am not without love. Both Sand Snake and Arezun are Pokémon that are important to me right now. I would never let these children go, let them run away, or leave them alone. I think my mom and I still have a lot of fun spending time at home. But I feel strongly that the root of everything I do is the person I have today.

"I can't be like Aniki and I feel like I understand now."

One of the things I admire about Big Brother is being able to change what you have to match your opponents. Of course, there are also regular members like Charizard

Yuri may just be with me.

Anyway, I was fascinated by Anikki's appearance, so after my first fiasco, I traded what I had.

But I can't be like Big Brother

This sentence was addressed to Freya and the others. I can understand it now. Aniki is able to change his hands and movements according to his opponent because of his long experience, genius observation and judgment. For me, who had just become a trainer, it was definitely a non-existent weapon. Let's see, imitating things can't have results.

Fria and Hit began to make a connection between what he said

One.

I'm not a skilled coach.

Of course. I'm still a newbie, so I can't be flexible enough to change what I need to adapt to my opponents. If I'm going to do something like this, I'm going to have to build my own style.

Two.

As a coach, my strengths are something else.

That's my fighting style. I feel like Ulu just told me that. First of all, although I can't fight defactly, there's only so much I can do. But this is a power that only Uru and I can reach.

Three.

That means I can't be like Aniki.

That's why I can't be like Aniky. No, it is necessary.

Four.

Most importantly, we are gym challengers.

That's right, we're challengers. It's normal to lose once or twice, it's normal to have an unreasonable disparity in talent, and it's normal for heartbreaking things to happen.

Because I've heard that Freya, who thinks she is strong, once had her heart broken

However, I only lost to the fight twice and Mr. Onion three or four times, so I was stepped on!

If I change hands because I lost, it would be disrespectful to my friends who have always been with me. If my favorite push-kill strategy doesn't work, push harder. I'm going to trust my teammates, push my style, and finish this gym challenge. It's not too late to learn agile. It's okay if it's dirty. No matter how much you have lost or how much you have struggled, as long as you don't give up, get back on your feet, and overcome it to the end, it is not a failure.

"Uh, I'm sorry, I finally realized."

I gently stroked Uru's head as it turned to me. I have been my partner since I was born, by my side since I was born, and I have grown up with me all my life. I removed you from the meeting, although temporarily, and it was only after persuasion that you reluctantly returned to me, and I finally realized this feeling. If it was true, it would not be strange that he was attacked by affection, but he still followed me bravely and still fought for me. It would be an insult to Yura O to think that Yura O could not win because of compatibility disadvantage.

"Woo I really want to win"

"Huh!?"

I felt Uru's eyes widen at my words. I'm sure he could feel my mind clear.

"It's beautiful, it's really pink, and that's how young people should be."

"You're finally starting to see things clearly. It's just that you realized it too late! And, because of that, I won't show mercy to your men! ”

Poplar and Bit reacted when they saw us. I can only thank the two of them for just watching us silently and doing nothing. In particular, I am very grateful for the best to help me sort out my feelings.

No, first of all, if his personality had been more mellow and he had used more rational words when defeating me, such a thing would not have happened, so I will not forgive Bit after all!

When I think of Bit's attitude at that time, I feel a little disgusted. But this disgust does not come from negative emotions, but from positive feelings, because this time I will overcome him and make him laugh, and this feeling is somehow good.

My heart lightened.

My field of vision has widened, and the battlefield that used to feel so cramped has begun to feel much wider, and I feel that I can now fight freely.

"So what?"

I slapped my cheek twice to cheer myself up.

Before I knew it, my routine had become a habit.

"If pushing doesn't work, push harder! If the light flower is not good enough, I will continue to attack until I take the same damage as the step-army! Retreat is not like the Challenger, and most importantly, it is not like the Challenger I! I'm a jumper."

From that moment on, my goal started from becoming a coach like my big brother.

"This man will complete this gym mission, conquer the gym challenge, and even surpass the big brother and become the champion"

For this purpose, I will run with my best friend!

"Please lend me strength one more time."

Ulu responded to my cries with the same loud voice.

Uru's body was shrouded in a pale light.

"This is"

"Sure enough."

"This season's challengers have been really rewarding."

Uru's silhouette grew horns, and its body became almost twice as large.

A pale light burst out, and out of it came a Pokémon, whose already snow-white and fluffy body became more elastic, both powerful and gentle.

Pokémon have undergone a mysterious evolution, and Ulu's appearance has changed.

"Goodbye woo"

I couldn't help but hold back the tears that were about to overflow from my eyes.

We are currently in the midst of a fight. It's never a good time to behave like this.

I rubbed my eyes with my sleeve and looked at the beat clearly.

"If you work hard, you can do it, right?"

"Although you said a lot of annoying things, thanks to you, I realized something important and was able to grow. For that I am grateful. But that's another story. I'll make you regret sending\"

"It's okay to ask. If you want to say it, prove it with your abilities, Cuchito, 'Play with me.'"

He instructed White Ulu to further strengthen his defenses in order to meet Kudo's strongest attack head-on. However, the technique that would have caused his body to curl up was not activated, and instead, white cotton began to gather around White Ulu, completely blocking Kuchito's attack. I know the trick.

\"Alright, goodbye\"

I ignored Bit's surprised voice and went on the offensive. Grabbed by the cotton gauntlet, gently deflected, Baiulu collided with his body with great force. It's not a technique that I direct either.

"Evolving at a rapid pace"

It's as if he's grown up and can adapt to my aggressive fighting style, and it's clear that he really believes in me.

I definitely want to win

"Goodbye let's do a lot"

"I won't make you fall in love with me anymore, and after receiving it with the 'iron head', I will 'play with you'"

Even if he was hit by an iron head and scared off by a joke, he didn't care about it and continued to attack. Due to the difference in type fit, there are more and more cases where my physical strength has decreased more than the other person's physical strength, but it doesn't matter. I don't think we can afford to lose now. But as expected, it's a beat. It is difficult to win by momentum alone, and unconsciously, Lu Baiyu has little physical strength left. Kuchito is also starting to learn how to parry attacks, and I don't think he can parry Tosin properly anymore.

\"So, after all this trouble, are you going to end up here? \"

I looked a little disappointed. If it were me before, my heart might have begun to break by now. But now, Lu Baiyu and I are not worried.

\"Goodbye that won't end\"

As I drank heavily, a yellow aura was released from Bai Ulu's body, and all the power was thrown into it. Although his physical strength is low, it is precisely because of the low physical strength that his aura shines even more.

"This spell doesn't work, does it!?"

"Now, that's what we're really pushing"

If it still doesn't work, press it again. Locally-like technology. Me and White Ulu have the strongest firepower right now

Baiulu radiated a golden light all over his body, and ran towards Kuchito with all his might.

"Ha, I want to know if this is good"

"I'm really worried."

At the entrance of the Arabesque Stadium, we were waiting for the arrival of the jump, in fact, we really wanted to watch the gym mission together, but unfortunately the gym here does not broadcast the gym mission, so there is no way to check it. So all we can do is wait. however

"It doesn't matter. If it's Hope look! ”

The two of them seemed disgusted by my words and turned their heads to the door. Hope appeared in front of his gaze with his head down.

"Jump?"

"Are you okay?"

Hope ignored the two men's worried voices and walked towards them. The two were even more upset about their appearance. Next to the two of them, I gently raised my hand. As I ignored the two people who were disappointed in my behavior and waited, Jump slowly raised her hand

"Thank you for your hard work"

"Thank you"

The dry voice of the good economic situation resounds.

Hope was right there, with a happy expression on his face, like the first time I fought him against Pokémon.
