The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

Black Gold City is a major coal town with abundant natural resources. Ventilation vents protruding from the surface are scattered throughout the city to exchange the floating air underground with the fresh air on the ground.

The Black Gold Coal Mine Museum and the Black Gold Coal Mine are located here, and miners often rest in the museum between work.

Hyota also welcomes citizens to train Pokémon in the coal mine.

Xiaozhi and his group headed straight for the Black Gold Gym.

"This is the first gym competition in the Sinnoh region, Xiaozhi, you must do your best." Xiaoguang said.

"Well, I will definitely get the first badge of the Sinnoh region."

As they approached the gym, Xiaoguang couldn't help but sigh,

"This is the Black Gold Gym. It feels like this place exudes an aura that invites people to come over."

"Let's go in."

Just as I reached the door, I saw Shinji coming out, followed by a gym staff member.

"Shinji."

"Oh, it's you."

"Are you here to challenge the gym competition too?"

"Yes, I'm Satoshi from Pallet Town."

"Oh, you came all the way from Kanto. Welcome to the palace of rock-type Pokémon in the Sinnoh region, the Black Gold Gym. The gym trainer, Hyouta, is very strong.

But Hyota is out for something, so I am the staff member in charge of this gym, Yansheng.

The match can only take place after Hyota returns, and you will be ranked behind Shinji, who came first to challenge. "

"I see."

"Then I'll take my leave first. I'll be waiting at the Pokémon Center." Shinji said.

After saying that, Shinji left.

Xiaozhi and his friends followed Yan Sheng to sit in the Black Gold Gym.

"So you've just started challenging the Sinnoh League. Then I'll give you this badge collection box."

After saying that, Yansheng took out a badge collection box and handed it to Xiaozhi.

"Thank you very much."

"Excuse me, where did Mr. Hyota go?"

"He went to the Black Gold Coal Mine."

"Heijin City is a place known for being full of energy. It is famous for being able to mine very high-quality coal." Xiaogang said.

"And for Hyota, that place is a rare treasure trove." Yansheng said.

After hearing what Iwao said, Xiaozhi and his friends went to the Black Gold Coal Mine to look for Hyota.

Piao Tai was working with a group of workers in the coal mine to carry a huge stone out of the mine.

This stone is in the shape of a Craniosaur and should be a fossil of a Craniosaur.

Piao Tai was wearing an engineering suit, a safety helmet, gloves and a pair of square black-framed glasses.

As the mine safety supervisor, Hyota allows trainers from Kurogane City to borrow the mine facilities to train their Pokémon.

Although he is still young, he is able to manage the coal mine effectively.

"Welcome to our time."

After saying that, Piao Tai leaned his face against the stone, closed his eyes, and seemed to be listening to the sound coming from the stone with his ears.

At this time, Xiaozhi stepped forward and said,

"Hello, Mr. Hyota, I'm Satoshi from Pallet Town."

"Wait a moment, please. I'm having a conversation with a fossil right now."

"dialogue?"

"Yes, it is conveying to me the world of long ago. It is the ancient atmosphere that I feel from this warmth. One day, the day of your revival will come. Look forward to that day."

After saying that, Piao Tai stood up and said to the workers next to him,

"Well, let's take it to the museum."

"Yes, we understand."

After sending the fossil away, Hyota finally turned his attention to Xiaozhi.

"You just said your name is Xiaozhi, right? What can I do for you?"

"I'm here to challenge the Black Gold Gym, I'm just the second in line." Xiaozhi said.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I kept the two challengers waiting for so long."

"By the way, we heard from Mr. Yansheng that there is a treasure here. What is it?" Xiaogang asked.

"Treasure? Oh, that's what I mean."

"A large number of ancient Pokémon fossils have been dug out in this charcoal pit. I also serve as the excavation team leader. And I have to tell you in secret that in the Charcoal Mine Museum in Black Gold City, there is a very powerful machine that can revive ancient Pokémon fossils and turn them into Pokémon again." said Hyota.

"So that's how it is. That's amazing."

Things here came to an end for the time being, and Hyota led everyone back to the Black Gold Gym.

Walking into the gym, Yan Sheng asked,

"Welcome back, how is the treasure?"

"We found a fossil in very good condition. It has been a long time since we made such an exciting discovery." Piao Tai said excitedly.

At this time, Shinji, who got the news, also rushed over.

"Oh, he's here. This is the first challenger, Shinji." Iwase said.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I'm Hyota, the gym trainer of the Kurokin Gym. Please give me your guidance."

"I am asking for your guidance."

"Let's get started, please come this way." said Piao Tai.

After saying that, he led Shinji towards the battle field of the gym.

"I want to see the gym competition." Xiaoguang said excitedly.

"Do you want to watch?" asked Hyota.

"Yeah, I've never seen a gym match before." Xiao Guang said.

"It doesn't matter to me, Shinji, what do you think?" asked Hyota.

"I don't care. It doesn't matter even if these guys see us." Shinji said.

Since both the gym trainer and the challenger agreed, Xiaozhi and the other two followed them in and sat in the audience seats to watch the fight.

The battlefield of the Black Gold Gym is covered with rocks, which is very suitable for Rock-type Pokémon to fight here.

Yan Sheng, who had received them earlier, served as the referee.

"Wow, so this is what the gym looks like." Xiao Guang said.

Since it was her first time in the gym, she was curious about everything.

"Although they are all gyms, the battle sites of each gym are different. Since this is a gym for Rock-type Pokémon, it will be created to be the most suitable environment for Rock-type Pokémon to move around in." Xiaogang said.

After the referee read out the rules, the game officially began.

"Go, little fist stone."

"Mariluli, get ready to fight."

"So Shinji has a water-type Pokémon." Xiaoguang said.

"For Rock-type Pokémon, the Water-type trick is very effective, and it can be said to be a very safe decision." Xiaogang said.

"Then the situation is more favorable to Shinji." Xiao Guang said.

"That's right in theory," Xiaogang said.

"Come on, you attack first." said Piao Taidao.

"Mariluli, use the water cannon."
