Pokémon that goes with the flow

After leaving Cerulean City, Hoshino continued to move towards Kuye City, where the next gym was located. However, Kuye City is not as close as Nibi City and Hualan City. It is quite far away.

"Hmm...I must have gone right, right? Why is there all snow here?"

Hoshino, who was walking in the forest, suddenly found that the front was covered with heavy snow, but it was like two worlds. One side was a snowy day, and the other side was still a lush forest.

After seeing this strange scene, Hoshino immediately took out a map to compare and found that he had not taken the wrong route, but looking up at the clear sky, it didn't look like it would snow.

The Scorpio above his head also curiously flew to the snow, and after confirming it, he told Hoshino that it was real snow.

"That's it... Anyway, let's follow the map first, at least this way you won't get lost..."

Just as Hoshino was packing up the map, a snowball successfully hit him in the face, and at the same time Scorpio's laughter could be heard.

"Scorpio!"

After wiping off the slush on his face, Hoshino roared while making a snowball and throwing it at Scorpio in retaliation. Scorpio did not dodge, and allowed the snowball to hit him, and then launched the next round of snowball offensive.

"Scorpion~Scorpion~"

......

After the fun, Hoshino continued to move forward, while Scorpio, who was tired of playing, continued to lie on top of Hoshino's head and secretly laughed.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a huge building appeared in Hoshino's field of vision, and at the same time a group of people appeared there, seemingly having a Pokémon duel.

"Rumble Rock, use roll!"

[Rumble Rock, the rock Pokémon, is the evolved form of Little Fist Rock. It can crunch and eat the rocks it likes...]

A girl with burgundy hair gave an order to Rumble Rock, who spun his already round body and crashed directly into the Pokémon that looked like a morning glory in front of him.

[Trumpet Bud, a flower Pokémon, likes places with high temperatures and a certain humidity, and will extend its feet underground to absorb moisture...]

Longlongyan's attack speed was very fast, and Xiaoya Ya was knocked to the ground before he could dodge, and he lost his fighting ability in an instant.

With the defeat of Trumpet Ya, everyone on the side surrounded the girl like stars and the moon, and all kinds of words of praise continued.

"This is natural. Even if the grass type Trumpet Bud can restrain the rock type and ground type Rumble Rock, if the level difference is too large, Rumble Rock can still defeat the Trumpet Bud."

Facing many words of praise, the girl accepted them all with pride, looked at her defeated opponent, and raised her head high.

"As my proud classmate, I hope you can continue to work hard and show stronger strength next time."

After saying that, the superior man extended his hand to his opponent, and the duel came to an end with a friendly handshake between the two.

"Oh, it's you?"

The top student, who was about to turn around and go back to his house, suddenly spotted Hoshino not far away. Just by looking at his attire, he knew he was not a student of their school.

"Ah hello, I'm Xiaoxing. I happened to pass by here. What is this place?"

"As you can see, this is the Pokémon Research School."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud broadcast began to sound.

"Today's special lecture, the practical class in the snow, has ended, and tomorrow's practical class will be held in the rain."

Along with the radio announcement, the surrounding snow began to melt rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, restoring the original appearance of the forest.

"Huh?! Is all the snow in such a huge place artificial?!!!"

Seeing the sight in front of him that was beyond common sense, Hoshino couldn't help but sigh. Seeing Hoshino's surprised look, the distinguished man laughed proudly.

"Of course. As an academy that cultivates excellent trainers, it is natural that it can simulate different scenarios."

After saying that, the proud man looked at Scorpio above Hoshino, pointed at Hoshino and said: "Since you carry Pokémon with you, it seems that you are also a trainer."

"Uh, yes, what is your name?"

"Oh~, I'm sorry, I haven't had time to introduce myself yet. This is really rude." Although he said sorry, his arrogance did not diminish at all.

"I am the proud one, the first star in the junior class of the world-renowned Pokémon training class, Andromeda, which shines brightly in the far distance of the Milky Way."

"Uh...yes, really, it's really amazing..."

Looking at the girl in front of him who still dances when introducing herself, Hoshino always feels a sense of familiarity... isn't this how Team Rocket appears! Even the person behind her who looks like a follower is holding a projector to show the Milky Way scene. Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?

"Since you are also a trainer, how many badges have you obtained?"

Amid Hoshino's constant complaints in his heart, the distinguished lady finally completed her self-introduction and turned to look at Hoshino.

"I have two at the moment, and I am planning to go to Kuye City to challenge the third gym." Hoshino took out the badge box with the badges in it and showed the badges inside to the outstanding students.

"Ah~, it turns out there are only two badges, which is equivalent to the junior level of our school. We have to keep working hard~"

After seeing that Hoshino only had two badges, the distinguished man said in a rather exaggerated tone, as if he was pitying Hoshino. Hoshino, on the other hand, just laughed and didn't pay much attention to it.

"This, that's it. After all, I've just started, haha~, by the way, what is the elementary level you just mentioned?"

After seeing Hoshino's lackluster reaction, the distinguished man felt bored and answered Hoshino's question.

"This is our school's rating for students. Beginner level is worth two badges, intermediate level is four badges, advanced level is six badges, and graduation is eight badges, which is equivalent to being able to directly participate in the Pokémon League Tournament."

"Well, that means that graduating from your school is equivalent to having the strength of eight badges. Will it be easy to challenge the gym again?"

"No~no~no~." The proud man shook his finger and denied Hoshino's words, "What I mean is that after graduating from our school, you can directly participate in the Pokémon League Tournament, and you don't need to go to various gyms to challenge gyms to obtain Qualification, this is a unique benefit of our school~"

"Ah? It can still be like this." Hoshino was a little surprised after hearing the words of the proud man.

"That's right! So let's have a Pokémon battle!"

"Ah, why is this so..."
