Pokémon: Yunxiao

"Look, there's Durian Island ahead!"

Yun Xiao stood on top of Gyarados with an excited look on his face. In front of him was the location of the last gym. He had originally planned to win four badges within two weeks to qualify for the challenge.

What was unexpected was that this Orange League journey only took a week and a half, and there were still five days before Yongci's return.

"Roar!"

Gyarados also roared excitedly, but its roar easily caused panic among people.

Many people gathered at the beach because of Gyarados' roar, including Liuli, the gym trainer of the Ryugan Gym.

"What a powerful Gyarados."

Gyarados was getting closer and closer, and Liuli also felt a powerful aura from Gyarados.

"There are so many people here? Are all the residents of Durian Island so welcoming?"

Looking at the increasing number of people on the beach, Yun Xiao couldn't help but sigh at the enthusiasm of the residents here. The people who gathered on the beach of Liugan Island were indeed here for Yun Xiao, but they all came to defeat Yun Xiao's Gyarados.

It was all because of Gyarados's excited roar, which made the residents here mistakenly believe that Gyarados went berserk and was coming to attack the town, so more and more of them gathered on the beach.

"Look, there's someone above us!"

Someone on the beach roared, and everyone looked upwards, and found that there was someone standing on top of Gyarados's head.

Previously, because the distance was far and Yun Xiao was rather thin, no one noticed Yun Xiao.

"It seems like this is just a misunderstanding, everyone should just go away. I think it's a trainer who came to challenge the gym, I will be in charge of entertaining him."

Liuli breathed a sigh of relief. If such a powerful Gyarados attacked the town, she was not sure she could force it back without causing any casualties.

Although she was a gym trainer, her strength was only at the elite level. Although Liuli didn't have eyes like Yunxiao that could see through the opponent's level, she could feel that this Gyarados was stronger than any Pokémon she had.

"Since Pavilion Master Liuli has said so, let's go back and continue our vacation."

Liuli is the strongest trainer here, and coupled with the relationship between the gym trainer and the richest man in the Orange League, everyone is convinced by Liuli.

So in an instant, the residents and tourists on the beach dispersed again, leaving only Liuli waiting for Yun Xiao's arrival.

"Huh? What about people?"

Yun Xiao just felt dazed, and the residents on the beach disappeared.

"Thank you for your hard work Gyarados."

Arriving at the beach, Yun Xiao put the Gyarados, who had worked hard all day, back into the Poké Ball. Just as he was about to leave for the Pokémon Center, he found a lady walking towards him.

"Welcome to Liugan Island, traveling trainer. Hello, I am Liuli, the gym trainer of this island."

Liuli came forward, greeted Yun Xiao warmly, and introduced herself as the gym leader.

"Hello, I'm Yun Xiao from Chenghua City in the Hoenn region. I'm here to challenge Liugan Island to get the last badge."

After hearing the other party's identity, Yun Xiao was very excited. He didn't expect to meet a trainer from this island as soon as he arrived at Liugan Island!

"I accept your challenge, but not now. My family owns a hotel, how about you stay in my hotel for a night and then come to the gym to find me the next day? Of course, the hotel fee is completely free for trainers."

Liuli generously accepted Yun Xiao's request for a battle, but it was already close to dusk, which was obviously not suitable for a Pokémon battle.

"That's true. Thank you very much, Master Liuli."

After swimming across the sea on Gyarados for a whole day, Yun Xiao felt a little tired. With Liuli's invitation, Yun Xiao planned to visit her again the next day.

Under Liuli's guidance, I returned to her luxury hotel. I originally thought that Liuli's hotel was an ordinary hotel for trainers to stay in, but I didn't expect that when I got here, I saw a five-star hotel!

Not only are there luxurious training facilities, there are also exclusive battle venues, and even the food is prepared according to five-star standards!

"Have a good rest here for the night. The training facilities and breakfast, lunch and dinner here are provided free of charge. After you have rested well, I will be waiting for your challenge in the gym the next day."

Although it costs a lot of money to provide Yun Xiao with free food, accommodation and transportation today, it is just a drop in the bucket for a rich woman like Liu Li.

Her son was also traveling, so she tried to help any trainers who went out to gain experience.

After staying in this luxurious hotel for one night, Yun Xiao arrived at the Liugan Gym early the next morning. This place, which is known as the largest gym in the Orange Islands, made Yun Xiao open his mouth wide again.

I thought I knew how rich Liuli was, but I was short-sighted. The wealth I imagined was nothing in front of Liuli. Even my villa was not as big as one of Liuli's battle fields in front of her gym!

"Brother Yunxiao, the rules of our competition are to have a doubles match. When one side's Pokémon loses all combat capabilities, the match is considered over. Is that ok?"

Standing in the battle field, Liuli introduced the rules of the game to Yun Xiao.

"Yeah, that's fine on my end."

Yun Xiao nodded. Doubles matches are the best way to test a trainer's understanding of Pokémon. Once a trainer makes a mistake, the entire game will be ruined.

"The Pokémon I sent out are Alakazam and Gallant."

I have already witnessed Yun Xiao’s powerful Gyarados yesterday. Although I know that I have little chance of winning against Gyarados, as a gym trainer, I don’t have the option of retreating!

"Then I'll leave this to you, Mongoose Slash and Washing Cui Nimeilulong."

Yun Xiao sent out his own spears and shields, which could attack and defend!

"I've never seen a Pokémon before."

Looking at the opponent's lazy and sticky Pokémon Liuli, she felt a little helpless. How could she fight him when she didn't even know the opponent's attributes?

However, the only thing to be thankful for is that judging from the energy radiating from these two Pokémon, their levels should be similar to the strength of his own Pokémon.

"In that case, use Alakazam's Illusion Beam and Garagara uses his Bone Boomerang!"

The moment the referee announced the start of the match, Liu Li launched her attack. There was no unnecessary probing, only a full-strength attack!

"Mongoose Slash hides behind the Slimy Dragon, Slimy Dragon deploys defense, use Protect!"

Yun Xiao did not expect Liuli's attack to be so decisive. The two attacks hit the green barrier created by the slimy dragon together. Although the move was powerful, it only created cracks in the green barrier but did not break it.

Thick yellow smoke enveloped the entire place, completely submerging the bodies of Slimy Melu Dragon and Mongoose Slash.
