What is an elf trainer?

Knowing that there was no hope of escape, Rada stopped struggling pointlessly and turned directly towards Riolu.

It finally figured out that it was being treated as a whetstone. If it didn't fulfill its duties as a whetstone today, it might not reap its own good fruits.

But when she turned towards Riolu, Rada also had a bitter look on her face.

Even if he fulfilled his duties as a whetstone, considering the strength of the little guy opposite, he probably wouldn't have much to gain from it.

Being a wolf in front and a tiger in the back, Lada had no choice but to continue attacking Riolu while hoping that he would not suffer too much damage.

Facing the fat rat that was charging at him viciously, especially under the watchful eye of Senior Wind Speed ​​Dog, little Riolu became a little nervous. After taking a deep breath, he raised his hands and fired a cross-shaped strike at Lada who was approaching him at high speed. s attack.

Cross chop!

Rada, who was approaching at high speed, had no time to dodge, and was struck hard on the forehead by Riolu's glowing white hands, causing him to stagger.

Rather than saying that it was too late to dodge, it would be better to say that it gave up dodging and moved directly, hoping that the guy on the opposite side would get out of here after beating it and stop staying here.

I had received a blow from Fa Jin before, and although it was hit on the teeth, it still transmitted some damage to the body. Now I was hit in the head by a cross blow, and the damage of the critical hit increased a lot.

Unable to even squeak, a meaningless groan came from his throat, and Lada's fat body fell directly to the ground, announcing his defeat with the splash of dust.

The first to defeat an enemy of the same level as himself, little Riolu had a rare smile on his face, and he was so happy that it was visible to the naked eye.

A ray of red light took back the wind speed dog who was looking at his little brother with joy. Zhou Yuan stepped forward and touched Riolu's dog's head, praising him for his fighting performance from all aspects.

This is exactly Zhou Yuan's education method, which is to give children positive feedback in a timely manner to help them build self-confidence, thereby promoting their growth.

Under Zhou Yuan's praise, Riolu's face gradually turned red, and then he continued to move in the original direction, waving his hands wrapped in energy to clear the obstacles on the road.

After glancing at Lada who was lying on the ground, Zhou Yuan smiled and shot out a gentle Qi with a snap of his fingers to help him break through to the senior level and then followed Riolu to continue his journey.

More than an hour after the man and the dog left, Lada, who had fallen on the ground, slowly woke up. Feeling the energy rushing in his body, Lada was a little confused. Was he being opened?

When Rada woke up in confusion, Riolu, who had advanced a few kilometers, was once again fighting the wild elves.

This time its opponent was a group of small fist stones that poured out of the caves in the nearby mountains. Looking at Riolu who was enjoying a hearty battle, Zhou Yuan looked suspiciously at Latios who was following nearby invisibly. What do you think? Why do I feel like something is wrong with this guy?

After all, since entering this forest until now, Riolu has encountered five waves of wild elves, with an average of more than half an hour. Each time, they appear shortly after Riolu recovers. To say this Zhou Yuan absolutely does not believe that there are no other elves behind him to cause trouble.

As Latios is currently the only one outside, he is naturally the most suspicious.

Feeling Zhou Yuan's gaze, even though he was in an invisible state, Latios still felt that Zhou Yuan's eyes were staring at him impartially. He turned his head away with a slight guilt, and Latios whistled to the other side. Fly away in one direction to find the next wave of wild elves that can put pressure on Riolu.

That's right, Latios did all this. After all, it's too boring to be invisible and follow behind. He just had some fun and found some opponents for the younger brothers in the team to practice. This was also the reason why the elves left in the first place. It was given to Latios at that time.

After all, after everyone separated, those who left could not provide help to Riolu's training for the time being. They simply let Latios, an idler, find some suitable opponents for his little brother, so that he could quickly improve in rich battles. Battle experience.

Seeing Latios turn and leave, Zhou Yuan shook his head and smiled. He knew that these guys were not holding anything back, but it did mean that they loved the little guy, although this love was a bit expensive. .

Since this behavior did no harm to the little guy and indeed helped him, Zhou Yuan just let it go and followed Latios.

With a click, the last small fist stone opposite Riolu was hit by a split tile, causing its forehead to crack, and then fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Riolu, who was scarred but full of skin wounds, scratched his head in confusion. Why did he feel like something was wrong? The intensity of the battle was too high, right?

Realizing that the little brother had noticed something was wrong, Latios also gave up the plan of finding another wave of opponents for the little brother. After all, the intensity of today's battle was enough. If he attacks secretly, even if the little brother is stupid, he will notice that something is wrong. .

After receiving the treatment provided by Zhou Yuan, the logistics captain, Riolu, who had recovered vigorously, once again walked in front of him to clear the way. Zhou Yuan followed behind with both hands, watching with relief. Little one, I am very happy.

How long has it been? How long has it been since I felt this kind of feeling of being respected? Those guys who were raised before were all treacherous children. It would be good if they didn't allow themselves to clear the way when encountering such a situation.

After walking for another two hours, Riolu and Zhou Yuan walked out of the forest and returned to the road.

As soon as he emerged from the forest, Zhou Yuan caught sight of a child holding an insect net not far ahead.

After seeing Zhou Yuan, the child's eyes lit up and he quickly ran towards Zhou Yuan. As he approached, he raised his elf ball and waved it:

"Big brother! If your eyes meet, you have to start an elf battle. This is the rule between trainers."

Zhou Yuan, who was entangled by the kid, was helpless and wanted to throw the Wind Speed ​​Dog out to meet the enemy. However, in order not to overly damage the confidence of the kid on the other side, Zhou Yuan did not do such an inappropriate behavior.

But speaking of it, this also allowed Zhou Yuan to see the difference between the Yanhuang Alliance and the Kanto Alliance.

Most of the trainers in the Yanhuang Alliance only get the initial elves when they are close to adulthood. Although there are some who get the initial elves in advance, they are a minority after all.

On the other hand, in the Kanto and Johto alliances, the age at which initial elves are obtained here is often relatively early. Some parents will even take the initiative to look for gentle elves to be playmates for their eight or nine-year-old children.

The child opposite Zhou Yuan is such a child. He looks about twelve or thirteen years old. In addition to the Poké Ball in his hand, there are three more hanging on his waist. Although the weather is getting colder, he is wearing thicker clothes. But Zhou Yuan could still tell at a glance that this boy was just an insect-catching boy.

Faced with the challenge of the insect-catching boy, Zhou Yuan looked at Riolu, who was one step behind him, and found that it had become in excellent condition after a few hours of recovery, so he nodded in agreement and waved his hand to the little one behind him. Brother accepted the challenge.
