"The number of badges you have is zero. This is your first time challenging the Nibi Gym. Is the number of registered Pokémon six correct? Please come over here to check the registered Pokémon..."
The staff of the Nibi Gym led Guan Liyuan to the conveyor belt of the inspection device.
Xiaoxia, who was accompanying him, was waiting on the side.
Guan Liyuan placed the six Poké Balls with Pokémon in the card slot of the conveyor belt. After passing through the identification equipment, they were returned to Guan Liyuan, and the staff registered them on the side...
If it was a case like Terahara Tomoko, or like Tipo borrowing her aunt's Windy Dog... it would be detected at this time.
Although it is possible to transfer Pokémon, it must be transferred completely, that is, the Poké Ball of the transferee must be used to capture the Pokémon again.
If the ability of the transferee is too low or the transfer is frequent, it will cause the Pokémon to be disgusted, and they will not listen to orders or be tired of fighting. Some Pokémon with tempers will even run away directly...
As long as they are away from the Poké Ball within a certain range, they will return to the "wild" state!
The six Pokémon that Guan Liyuan signed up for were all captured by him with Poké Balls, so they passed the test successfully. After that,
the guide sent Guan Liyuan directly to a duel hall, which was completely decorated as the home of rock-type Pokémon.
Usually, gyms will do this, decorating the venue with the theme of their own gym, so as to better display the training results of the gym's Pokémon and attract more trainers to join...
The strength of the gym is reflected in two aspects. One is the large number and high quality of gym trainers, and the other is the large number and high quality of gym students. Gym
trainers represent the hard power of the gym, while gym students represent the influence of the gym and are an important source of income!
For example, Nibi Gym, as an official certified by the alliance, now has hundreds of students, and the annual fee is comparable to the total income of a middle-class family in half a year...
However, the venue tends to favor the gym's own type in order to better display the strength of the Pokémon of this type, and will favor challengers in other rules.
"When Nibi Gym is conducting the assessment for the first to third badges, the rules are a 2-on-2 Pokémon duel. The challenger can exchange Pokémon once in the middle, but the gym trainer cannot exchange in the middle. The side that makes both of the opponent's Pokémon lose their combat effectiveness wins... The gym trainer will arrive in ten minutes." The guide said.
Guan Liyuan said to Xiaoxia awkwardly at the edge of the field: "It feels so formulaic... Are there no audiences?"
Compared to the gym challenges in anime and games, Guan Liyuan felt like he was here for a physical examination...
"Audience? You don't have a badge yet. I guess the other side should send students to compete? How can anyone buy tickets for such a duel... When you have more badges and need the other side's top gym trainer or even the gym owner to come out in person, the gym challenge will be held in the form of an open tournament." Xiaoxia said. Well
, it seems that the first few badges are similar to a "physical examination"...
Five minutes later, the opponent chosen by Nibi Gym for Guan Liyuan arrived. He was a boy who looked about the same age as Guan Liyuan and was also under the age of sixteen.
After briefly introducing themselves to Guan Liyuan, the two stood on either side of the duel arena.
And the guide before also took on the task of referee at this time...
"Nibe Gym Leader Challenge, challenger Guan Liyuan, each side can send out two Pokémon for a one-on-one duel. The side with both Pokémon defeated loses, and the challenger can make a Pokémon replacement... The game begins!"
"It's decided to be you, Psyduck!"
"Go! Geodude!"
Knowing that the opponent would use "Rock-type" Pokémon, Guan Liyuan was not a stubborn person like Satoshi, so of course he would not make trouble for himself. Instead, he decisively sent out a Water-type Pokémon that restrained "Rock-type"...
"Sure enough... Geodude that restrains Rock-type? But don't be afraid, let him see our faith! Since the opponent is a Water-type, let's use normal skills... Geodude, Megaton Punch!"
Under the opponent's command, Geodude rushed towards Psyduck with a flash of his right fist...
Of course, Megaton Punch is just the name of a move. When challenging for the first badge, the trainer sent by the opponent will not be very strong, and the Pokémon sent should have a combat power of only four or five thousand.
However, Megaton Punch is a medium-to-high power skill. Guan Liyuan speculated that it should be inherited from the parents... It seems that this is a Geodude with good qualifications!
"Psyduck, use Water Wave." Geodude
, dead...
That's right, just as Geodude rushed over, Psyduck, covering its head, condensed a spherical blue wave group under its dull eyes and rushed towards Geodude. It knocked out Geodude
with one hit...
"What? One hit..." The opponent seemed very surprised.
"Water type not only restrains 'Rock type', but also 'Ground type', and Geodude is a dual-type of Rock and Ground, and its resistance to Water type is extremely poor!" Guan Liyuan said.
"It's not over yet! Geodude, come back... It's up to you next, Geodude No. 2!"
"Huh?"
Guan Liyuan was wondering, does the opponent only have Geodude as a Pokémon? Knowing that it is restrained, it wants to give up another kill?
It was not until he saw the appearance of the opponent's Pokémon that Guan Liyuan understood...
Although it was also a Geodude, this time the "No. 2" was gray-blue, and there were two thick black "eyebrows" on the stone's head, as well as several "hairs" on the top of the head?
Looking closely, it was discovered that it was not hair, but black metal attached to it!
"It turned out to be a Geodude from the Alola region... If I remember correctly, it has both rock and electric attributes, right?" Guan Liyuan said.
"You actually knew that? That's right! Alola Geodude has an electric attribute that restrains water, so it's not afraid of your Psyduck!"
Because the Alola region is far away from other regions and has special landforms and climate, some Pokémon in other regions will appear differently in the Alola region!
For example, Geodude, which was born in the magnetite of Alola, is different from Kanto Geoduge, which is "rock + ground" because of the magnetic force, but "rock + electric", and the skills are also different...
"Geoduge, use '100,000 Volts'!"
The name of the move is the same as "Million Ton Punch", both are just exaggerated virtual references, but at a relatively low level, he actually learned "Hundred Thousand Volts", it seems that this guy's two Geodudes are very talented...
"Psyduck, use the Light Wall to defend!" Guan Liyuan also commanded immediately.
The lightning was blocked by the Light Wall by half of its power, but it still caused objective damage to Psyduck... After all, there is a property restraint, and the water-type Psyduck is relatively helpless against the electric-type skills! Although
Psyduck still has combat power, Guan Liyuan still chose to use his exchange right and exchanged Psyduck back...
"Leave it to you! Sandshrew! Use Sword Dance!" Guan Liyuan sent out the ground-type Sandshrew.
Among all of Guan Liyuan's Pokémon, the most hardworking Sandshrew started dancing as soon as it appeared: "�N�N�N——"
The reason why it hummed was entirely because it was too excited, but the effect of "Sword Dance" gradually took effect, and the Sandshrew's body flashed slightly...
