Love is often the stage of disillusionment.

For people with dreams, this world has always seemed a little too cruel. There are always dreams that can never come true, and there are always storms that will destroy the bud of longing with overwhelming force.

"Rose Thunderdo, Grass Slide."

The strange force that looked like it was menacing didn't have time to dodge, and was directly knocked into the forest in the distance by a green light.

Zhulan did not refuse a request from research assistant Neil. Now, the forest in front of the gate of the Mori no Yokan has been cleared into a clearing, and the two of them began to guide the game on this thorn-covered ruin.

Junsha and Venexia stood beside the field, looking with interest at the two of them who were distancing themselves on the ruins of the forest.

Inside, Professor Medan and Xena are also paying attention to the game outside through the gray window.

No one was the referee for this matchup, because there was no suspense about the outcome of the match.

"Is the second Pokémon sent out a fanged cage? So, let's respond with grass moves! ”

Zhulan pointed to the opponent to give a command——

"Magic Leaf!"

The blue-glowing blades are like a sharp throwing knife, cutting through the opponent's "grass mixer" released by the location, pushing the fanged cage with its wide mouth to the sidelines.

Neil's enthusiastic expression was a little unbearable at this time, and it took a long time to decide on the third elf to play.

And Zhulan was also strange when she saw the elves sent by her opponent...... Why is it that even the Yukikasa monster that has not evolved yet?

Moreover, the snow-hated monster showed an obviously unnatural nervous expression after the ball, which showed that Neil had just subdued it.

The other party's purpose should be to rely on the real preemptive skill to inflict some damage on Rose Leido.

With a soft sigh in his heart, the Sinnoh champion calmly commanded Rose Leido, who was flying between the branches and leaves—

"Rose Redo, Missile Needle." Then he added in a whisper, "Be careful not to really hit......"

Neil, of course, didn't hear his opponent's secret instructions at all. As Zhulan expected, he hurriedly commanded the Snow Monster to launch a preemptive attack with "Ice Gravel".

It's a pity that if the first move misses the opportunity from the time the order is given, its speed advantage will be greatly reduced.

The small blizzard-like "ice gravel" finally blew out of the snow-sassed monster's mouth, but it was instantly enveloped in a burst of "missile needles".

Whoosh, swishing, four "missile needles" were wrapped in a terrifying wind, grazing the snow-white hats of the snow hats, and the "ice gravel" that finally passed through the barrage did not hit Rose Leiduo, who was standing in place, and disappeared between the trees in the distance with a huge deviation.

The snow-sassed monster fainted in fright.

Each of Zhulan's orders is concise and clear, but every move execution will inevitably send one of Neil's Pokémon off the field.

After the Snow Monster, the other party sent a new elf. Seeing the elves sent by his opponent next, the Sinnoh champion was slightly interested.

Zhulan patiently waited for the other party to act first, and then commanded Rose Leiduo to fight back.

"Towards the sky, use cotton spores."

Large cotton wool flew out of the bouquet of red and blue flowers, and floated into the air with the dance of Rose Leido, just in time to take advantage of the wind to wrap around the wind ball that flew high into the air to try to dodge the opponent's attack.

In fact, in the face of Neil's balloon with the wind, Zhulan originally had a little intention of experimenting with moves.

After all, it was also the hole card that the Fire Heavenly King Daye took out in the last Championship Challenge, although it only blew up to the air when playing against himself, but as a Sinnoh champion who must always face challenges from all sides, it is also necessary to store a few more sets of tactical responses in his mind.

However, it seems that it is a bit too reluctant to experiment with moves in a game like this with a clear difference in strength.

"Cotton Spore" is just a harassment skill that simply greatly reduces the opponent's speed, and does not have any attack ability. But the opponent's Wind Ball is really not good at Pokémon battles, and he can't even resist such moves.

After several unsuccessful dodges in the air, the ball was wrapped in white cotton wool and lost the ability to continue to "fly", and had to be forced to land miserably outside the field in an upside-down posture.

"If you have any other elves, send them out. Well...... You can test the ability of elves to cooperate with each other. ”

The difference in strength between Sinnoh champions and amateur trainers, champion-level Pokémon and untrained elves is too great.

Zhulan reluctantly made an excuse and suggested to Neil.

The research assistant who dreamed of becoming a trainer turned a little embarrassed. However, Neil didn't feel any surprise at the situation itself.

This is the strength of a champion, but if you are casually tossed by a Pokémon cultivated by an amateur, it will make people feel unreal.

Thinking of this, Neil's heart finally calmed down a little. He gritted his teeth and sent out the last two Pokémon on his body at the same time.

It's the octopus bucket and the knotted grass lady, the latter of whom is dressed in a pink garbage cloak.

"Octopus Bucket, use the Octopus Bucket Cannon! Lady of the Knotweed, Raster Canon! ”

"The momentum is not bad. However, this should be the end of the game. ”

Facing two imposing beams of light, bamboo

Lan casually raised her hand, her long brilliant blonde hair swaying behind her—

"Rose Raydo, 'Falling Blossoms'!"

As Zhulan's order fell, the felled trees around her suddenly trembled. Countless red, blue, and white petals emerged from the cracks in the leaves, like a blizzard blown by the petals, instantly disintegrating the attack of the octopus bucket and the knotted grass lady, and then unleashing indiscriminate physical attacks in all directions even more violently.

The sky is falling and the flowers are dazzling.

And so, the battle ended.

There was no need for a referee's ruling, and everyone accepted the final result as a matter of course.

"Thank you for your advice, Zhulan Champion."

Neil took the Poké Ball and retrieved his two Pokémon from the petals, they were actually not injured at all, but they were just knocked unconscious by the aura of the move.

The research assistant bowed deeply to Zhulan and said with sincere emotion-

"Your Rose Thunder is really powerful."

"Perhaps, but the strength of the elves doesn't mean everything. The profession of trainer exists to prove this point. ”

"I'm going to get stronger with them!" Neil said confidently and firmly.

"After fighting against you Zhulan Champion, I finally understand the gap between myself and the truly strong one. It's true that my abilities as a trainer still have a lot to lose, but now that I'm deeply aware of my shortcomings, it's much easier to change now that I've found my direction. ”

Zhulan was noncommittal, she felt that Neil still didn't fully understand what she meant.

The other party seems to be a traditional quantitative thinking of data, dividing the Pokémon's abilities and the skills of the trainer into two kinds of experience that need to be accumulated separately, as long as they each practice to the full level, they can naturally become a powerful Pokémon trainer......

Gently touching the white rose-like hairstyle of Rose Redore beside her, Zhulan was a little unsure of what to do with it.

Actually, she wasn't very happy with Neil's performance against him. The amateur trainer seems to have relied a little too heavily on Pokémon's abilities.

Obviously, his energy as a Pokémon trainer is limited, but he continues to subdue the elves, which leads to his inability to achieve the ultimate in the cultivation of each Pokémon, and all the moves are stumbling.

And Neil's performance in the battle also shows that he actually lacks an understanding of Pokémon knowledge, and his cognition of the battle only stays at the level of attribute confrontation and seeing moves, and he didn't expect to use the characteristics, abilities and props of elves to assist in combat.

What's more, although he challenged Zhulan, he didn't have much awareness of trying to win, but more like he launched this battle in order to experience a decent defeat. No matter how many times you play this kind of coaching battle, you can't really get a boost.

If Neil's thoughts continue to intensify, the other party may follow the wrong path of treating his partner Pokémon roughly in the future.

But at this time, the words still have to be picked and spoken.

"Hmm...... At the level of an amateur trainer, you're doing pretty well, probably enough to pass two or three gym tests. Zhulan praised with skillful clichés.

"It's conceivable that in addition to your work as a research assistant, you should devote a lot of effort to catching, cultivating, and training all kinds of Pokémon, which is remarkable. Your elves have responded to your wishes in battle, and I think it's a very rare emotional bond. ”

The Sinnoh champion turned his back and put on a very high and unfathomable posture intentionally or unintentionally -

"All life will meet other beings, and then something will be born. A professional Pokémon trainer is not an easy path to follow, and even if you can't become such a strong player, I hope you will cherish the fate of meeting your Pokémon partner. ”

Assistant Neil looked like he had benefited a lot, and his face was full of adoration.

I don't know if he, as Professor Meidan's research assistant, understood the implicit exhortation in the other party's words......
