I got the Pokémon

Leafeon was unable to dodge and was hit hard, sending it flying backwards again.

This time, the impact was quite severe, causing Leafeon to fly several meters away. It did not stop until it hit a large tree that was frozen by the cold air, and finally slid to the ground covered with ice and snow.

The snow from the previous blizzard covered the treetops, and after being hit, it fell down and landed all over Leafeon.

When it tries to get up again, it really can't.

Of course, this is not caused by the snow.

But it was this kind of collision that disrupted Yeib's feeling of full concentration. When the rhythm was interrupted, it naturally freed it from its potential state. At this moment, all its fatigue and burden surged up, making Yeib feel terrible pain in his body. He couldn't move at all and could only lie there, gasping for breath.

Seeing Ye Yibu's appearance, Cai Zhong was shocked at first, and then his body shook. He wanted to shout out, but found that he couldn't even utter a word. He staggered and half-knelt on the ground with weak legs!

With just one glance, Xia You knew that both the man and the Pokémon were woken up by him!

Looking at this pair that had lost their will and ability to fight, Xia You knew that the winner had been decided, so he ordered his Moon Eevee to stop, and then turned his gaze to the referee on the sidelines.

Rongzi, who was sitting in the referee's seat, was stunned at first after feeling Xia You's gaze, but then he came to his senses and raised his right hand and said, "Leaflete has lost its ability to fight, and all three Pokémon of the gym leader, Nazuna, have failed. Therefore, the winner of this gym challenge is the challenger Xia You!"

After the results of the competition were announced, she hurriedly left the referee area, ran all the way to Cai Zhong, and reached out to help her up.

"Nana, are you okay?"

Hearing Rongzi's concerned voice, Caizhong shook his head, then looked up at Xia You in the distance, and said in a slightly weak voice: "What happened to me just now?"

At this time, Xiaoyao and Yami had also run to Xia You's side. After they met up, they walked towards Caizhong together.

When he walked in front of Cai Zhong, Xia You smiled and said, "Congratulations, you have just briefly entered a special realm. Most people call it 'potential stimulation', but I personally prefer to call it 'explosion'. Remember that feeling well. I believe that after today, both the tacit understanding between you and your Leafeon and its strength will be improved to a new level!"

"Potential stimulation? Explosion?"

Cai Zhong muttered to himself a few times, and could only say that after all, he was the one who became the Gym Leader. Most trainers might not know what that meant, but Cai Zhong had obviously heard of it, so now when he heard the two names, he nodded thoughtfully.

But she quickly came to her senses, and with the help of Rongzi, she slowly stood up and said to Xia You with a bitter smile: "I'm sorry for letting you see such an embarrassing side of me. You... are really too powerful. Even if I try my best, I can't defeat you. I lose this game wholeheartedly..."

Whether it was his expression or his tone, one could sense that Cai Zhong truly admired Xia You.

This also gave Xia You a sense of satisfaction.

Even if it wasn't his original intention, how many people can beat a gym leader to his complete submission?

However, he had said polite words too many times, and it would seem hypocritical to say them again. Therefore, in the face of Cai Zhong's admiration, Xia You just smiled lightly, well... showing the demeanor of a strong man!

After recovering for a while, Nazane was not so weak anymore. She shook her head at Rongzi, then took out the Poké Ball and took back the Leafeon who had also fallen to the ground but had not yet fallen into a coma.

After doing all this, she reached into her pocket, took out a badge and handed it to Xia You.

"Mr. Xia You, please accept this. This is my forest badge. It's proof of your victory over me."

Xia You took the badge in his hand and looked at it. He saw that the badge was composed of three small diamonds like small trees. They were close together to form a forest, which represented the grass nature of the vegetable seeds themselves and seemed to echo the Baidai Forest outside the city.

"Thanks."

Xia You casually said thank you, then took out the new badge collection box he got from Miss Joy after arriving in Sinnoh, and placed the first badge he obtained on this continent today in it.

At this point, the matter was over for Xia You. However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard Xiao Yao say to Cai Zhong: "Miss Cai Zhong, my companion next to me also wants to challenge you."

In an instant, Xia You and Cai Zhong's gaze shifted away from Xiao Yao's face and all focused on Ya Mi.

Ya Mi's face was still red, and she nodded and smiled at Cai Zhong.

When a challenger issues a challenge, Cai Zhong will naturally not refuse, but...

"Of course it's no problem, but you can see how I am now. I'm afraid I need to rest for a while to recover. Even my Pokémon need to be treated as soon as possible."

Yami waved her hands quickly: "It's okay, it's okay, I can wait."

Because there was no prior communication with Xia You, Xia You naturally didn't know that Ya Mi wanted to challenge the gym, but it didn't matter, it was just a matter of staying here for a while longer.

After watching Cai Zhong and Rong Zi leave temporarily, Xia You turned to look at Xiao Yao and Ya Mi.

"I don't know how long they will rest. You guys wait here for now. During this time, I will go to the Pokémon Center to treat my Pokémon."

"Got it." Xiaoyao nodded to him with a smile, "Then remember to meet us when you're done with the treatment!"

Leaving the two here, Xia You took back his Moon Eevee, then left the battlefield alone, left the gym, and walked towards Pokémon.

Even though it seemed like he had been fighting for a long time, it was actually only more than an hour. It was not even noon outside yet, and the streets were bustling with people. It was also the busiest time of the year in the entire city.

Because it is located in the suburbs, it will take a long time to get back to the Pokémon Center. However, there is plenty of time now, so he is not in a hurry. Instead, he walks towards the east of the city while appreciating the customs of the city.

As mentioned before, the square where the annual celebration is held in Baidai City is located in the eastern part of the city. Since it is in the same direction as the Pokémon Center, Xia You decided to take a slight detour and go to the square first.

It's just a matter of convenience anyway, so it shouldn't take up too much time.

Thinking this, he crossed the long street and stepped into the square.

I have to say that this square is really big. It is built along the lake and you can't see the end at a glance. The ground under your feet is paved with light red tiles. There are reliefs, fountains, columns, and everything else. It is also very artistic, and at the same time, it is not lacking in traces brought by the years.

Even on non-celebration days, there are many people gathering here. Some of them are setting up stalls to sell small commodities and artworks, some are playing violins on the street, and some are quietly painting, but more of them are tourists like Xia You who come here because of its reputation.

After only a dozen steps into the square, Xia You had already completely blended into the crowd.

However, compared to these ordinary things that can be seen in other squares, Xia You was not attracted by them, but followed the crowd and came to the center of the square.

In fact, most squares have their own unique iconic landmarks, buildings or decorations, and this is naturally the same here.

Before he got closer, Xia You saw from afar a huge Pokémon statue at least ten meters high, consisting of two entangled Pokémon, standing in the middle of the square.

These two Pokémon, one of which has four legs and thorn-like structures on its body, like a sauropod dinosaur, and the other one looks like a combination of a Wyvern, a Pteranodon and a Plateosaurus. Both are Pokémon that Xia You has never seen before.

However, although their shapes look like they are fighting, as if they are fighting to the death, their tails are connected together, as if implying something.

Dialga and Palkia...

Although Xia You had never seen them before, he still knew the origins of the two Pokémon in the statue.

As two legendary Pokémon, just like Arceus, they have been circulated in various mythological stories. It can be said that almost every Sinnoh person knows them.

The only thing I don't understand is why their statues are placed here. Is it because they have some connection with EMI City? Is that why they are commemorated?

As he was thinking this, his eyes accidentally swept across and he noticed a person.

This is a woman, and a tall and beautiful one at that!

Although Xia You often dealt with women and his confidantes were all very beautiful, the aura emanating from this woman still caught his attention at first sight.

She had a pair of beautiful grey eyes and an exquisitely beautiful face. She wore hair accessories that looked like the ears of Moon Eevee. Her dazzling and smooth blonde hair extended all the way down to her thighs, just covering her left eye and half of her left face. She wore a black top and jacket, paired with black trousers and high heels. The overall look was fashionable while giving people a sense of calm and intellectuality!

Such iconic dress and familiar appearance made Xia You recognize her identity immediately without even thinking about it.

It is none other than the mythology scholar, Pokémon trainer and champion - Bamboo Ran!

But why is she here!?

Could it be that he, like me, came here to see this statue?

Or...is there someone or something here that attracted her?

Although he was confused, Xia You had no intention of going up to him to talk and make friends with him. He just calmly withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the statue in front of him.

No matter what the reason was that I met Zhulan here, it would be inconsistent with my character to talk to her rashly, and it would also easily make people think that I was a lecher.

After all, his name was just a flash in the pan in Kanto, Johto and Hoenn, and it only caused a brief heat with the conference. However, these regions are far away from Sinnoh, and such achievements are of no use in this strange continent. I'm afraid that Takeran has never heard of his name, let alone know who he is!

If that's the case, why bother yourself with making things boring? It will only make you feel very embarrassed.

And even if I really met her now, what would it matter?

Want to fight her?

You should know that in your plan, the current trip is only to challenge gyms and alliances in various places. As for fighting with the Four Heavenly Kings and champions, that will be a matter for the second stage in the future!

So, I'd better wait for a better opportunity to meet her again...

Thinking of this, Xia You shook his head, did not stay any longer, but put his hands in his pockets, turned around and left.

Just as he took a step away, Zhu Lan, who was not far away, suddenly felt something and looked in the direction where Xia You left, and happened to see his back.

Although she couldn't see the man's face clearly, Zhulan still instinctively exclaimed "Huh" in her heart.

Whether it was due to a woman's sixth sense or she felt the aura of a strong man, she had obviously not noticed him before, but in this instant, she still felt that the man seemed... a little unusual.

It’s a pity…I didn’t get to see what he looked like.

Fortunately, this was just a mysterious feeling, and she did not think too much about it. Instead, she smiled with relief, and lamented that she was so nervous even during her vacation. She also withdrew her gaze and looked at the statue in front of her again.

Dialga and Palkia? I have to say, the carvings are really vivid!

……

After leaving the celebration square, Xia You was about to go to the Pokémon Center. However, before he had gone far, he suddenly stopped when he just walked around an ordinary-looking building.

His brows slowly furrowed, and then he turned his head and looked at the inconspicuous sign hanging outside the building - Galaxy EMI Building.

At the same time, the forgotten memories from the previous game appeared in my mind like lightning.

Galaxy... EMI Building...

After repeating the name twice in his mind, Xia You suddenly laughed.

It really takes no effort at all.

It’s a pity that the handsome guy is still looking for clues about the Galaxy Team. Now, right in front of him... isn’t there one of their secret bases?

That’s right, just like the “Galactic” in the name of this building, although it looks like just an ordinary building and it seems a little far-fetched to associate it with Team Galactic, but in fact it is one of Team Galactic’s secret bases hidden in the Sinnoh region!

The main purpose of the Galaxy team's move is to hide the darkness under the lamp!

You know, no matter it is a building, a shopping mall, a store, or even various companies, there are quite a few that are named "Galaxy". It is very popular. If the police investigate them one by one, it will definitely take several years or even more than ten years.

The Galaxy team is gambling that these popular places will not be discovered by the police, and that the police will not think that they dare to mark their industries so blatantly!

Originally, Xia You had no impression of this place. After all, when he played the game before, he just skimmed through it, and most of the pop-up dialogues and plots were selectively skipped according to his mood.

But after meeting Zhulan just now, he kept wondering why Zhulan came to this ordinary city.

Therefore, after seeing this building, he had a flash of inspiration and vaguely connected the two together, and thus remembered all these!

She took out her cell phone and was about to inform the handsome guy of the news, but just as she unlocked the screen, he stopped.

Ok……

If Zhulan really came here to investigate the building, doesn't that mean that the handsome guy already knows the news? In this case, it seems unnecessary to notify him again...
