Elf: Chosen Ranger

"However, you can't let me come here in vain. Well, that's good." Qibana nodded, showing an interesting expression, "If I'm not mistaken, I have already touched this heart-scaled treasure. The threshold of evolution requires a strong dose of medicine.”

"So let me help you, let's have a fight." He took out a Poke Ball, threw it into the air, then caught it steadily, and said to the Heart Scale Treasure.

"In other words, Master Qibana, you want to fight me?" Xia Ye asked.

What Qibana means is that the Heart Scale Treasure is about to evolve and needs a certain amount of stimulation to break through.

In fact, Xia Ye also feels that the Heart Scale Treasure is about to evolve. It has worked hard, and the Pokémon teaching level in Sunset Forest is not bad, not to mention that there is a legendary battle master like Zangmarant as its master.

But Qibana's method is clear at a glance, which is to fight. It seems that he needs to take action himself.

"No," Qibana waved his fingers and chuckled, "If I command it, it will become a unilateral crushing. Wouldn't this defeat the original purpose?"

Xia Ye half-squinted his eyes. He was not sure whether Qibana was the strongest gym leader in Galar, but he was sure that he had the strongest self-confidence.

Also, I guess in his eyes, I'm just a ranger with decent abilities, and there's no need for him to play in person.

"Well, in this case, I have a suggestion. Qibana Gym Leader, how about you increase the strength of sending Pokémon, and I join this battle and command the Heart Scale Pokémon?

After all, this is a rare opportunity. Powerful dragon Pokémon are rare, so of course the stronger the better. "

"scale!"

The Xinlinbao next to Xia Ye is also full of energy. Its eyes are full of perseverance. Never shrinking from the strong is a creed imprinted in their blood.

"Haha, I admire this momentum very much. It is much better than many challengers in the gym. Most people are timid when they see me and are eager to give in. But you actually offered to increase the difficulty.

Well, I will satisfy your proposal. After all, it makes sense! "

Qibana took back the elf ball in his hand and replaced it with a high-level ball: "Then come out, Aluminum Steel Dragon, and let me see how your combination can break through its steel barrier!"

"Al roar buzz~!"

A giant dragon with a metallic luster all over its body appeared in front of Qibana and roared. Its body structure was sharp and angular, and it was more like a machine than a dragon.

Its yellow pupils looked down at the little guy in front of it, and it roared and took a sudden step forward. The dragon's hooves sank into the soil and kept moving, as if it was making a provocative move.

Xinlin Bao's expression was very calm and motionless. This level of roar was not as noisy as the steel-armored crow.

Xia Ye raised his eyebrows, Aluminum Steel Dragon, isn't this Qibana's ace Pokémon? Even if it's strong, it won't reach its peak all at once, right?

Wait, Xia Ye seemed to remember something. Pokémon like Aluminum Dragon are basically made of metal and are very hard, but their weight is very light and their movements are actually very flexible.

But judging from the state of this aluminum steel dragon, it is obvious that its weight is not light. After all, its hooves are stuck in the mud.

It turns out that it is a special case among the aluminum steel dragons. The characteristics of the aluminum steel dragon are heavy metals, while the characteristics of Qibana's ace aluminum steel dragon are light metals. This is probably another one cultivated by Qibana.

"Hey, Aluminum Steel Dragon, be more respectful. You will suffer a loss if you underestimate your opponent." Qibana scolded.

The aluminum steel dragon retracted its hoof, but still did not look directly at Xinlin Bao.

"Oh, could it be that the Galar Alliance also plans to imitate other regions and not limit the order of challenges?" Xia Ye said suddenly.

"Huh? Oh, what a good eye!"

Qibana understood the meaning behind Xia Ye's words and clapped his hands in praise.

"To be honest, I have also thought about being able to compete with the fledgling and energetic novice trainers. After all, there are many little guys in Quanguan City who became trainers because of me. It must be interesting to be their first test, right?

Unfortunately, the Galar Alliance has no intention of changing the order of challenges, so I can only guard the last gym and give the challengers the most severe test~"

Qibana spread his hands with a look of helplessness on his face, and then he slapped his hands on the head of the aluminum steel dragon.

"The topic has gone too far. Yes, it is the aluminum steel dragon that I recently conquered. In addition to it, I also cultivate eight aluminum steel dragons.

I like this Pokémon very much. Its appearance is extremely fashionable, strong and light, and it can perfectly adapt to sandstorm weather. It is a natural partner for me!

Precisely because it was recently tamed by me, it has a bit of a wild temper, so please forgive me for what I did just now. "

"It's okay, my Xinlinbao is very powerful." Xia Ye shook his head.

"I think so, hey, let's all go to our places," Qibana withdrew his arm and took a few steps back, "By the way, the attributes of the aluminum steel dragon are steel and dragon. Do I still need to explain what this means? ?”

"It means that the dragon-type moves of Heart Scale Treasure can no longer restrain the opponent. Unless it evolves into a scale-armored dragon and increases its fighting attributes, it can reverse the disadvantage." Xia Ye took a step back and responded.

"Correct, Xia Ye, you really know the knowledge about Pokémon~" Qibana put his hands behind his head, making an admiring gesture, "Come on, Aluminum Steel Dragon, defeat your opponent with the momentum of a storm. !”

"Aluminum roar~!"

The aluminum steel dragon roared, its claws flashed with metallic light, and it rushed towards Xinlin Bao with long strides.

Xia Ye's face darkened, it was a metal claw, and he said this: "Heart Scale Treasure, use the dragon tail to hit the ground and jump up."

"scale!"

Xinlinbao's little tail was wrapped in dark blue light, and his whole body tensed up and he jumped up violently. He turned sideways and used his tail to hit the ground. With the help of the reaction force, he suddenly jumped to the same height as the top of the aluminum steel dragon's head.

Because the characteristics of this kind of aluminum steel dragon are heavy metal, it does not show the same lightness as the light metal aluminum steel dragon.

But on the contrary, its attack is more powerful than that of the light metal aluminum steel dragon. If you eat one attack rashly, it will definitely cause a lot of damage.

Seeing the little one in the air, the aluminum steel dragon calmly waved its metal claws in the direction of its fall. A guy without wings can't change its direction in the air!

"Heart Scale Treasure, use dragon breath behind you!"

The Xinlin Bao floating in the air took a deep breath, puffed up its small mouth and blew out a strong breath. The dragon's breath helped Xinlin Bao directly hit the aluminum steel dragon's head.

Xinlinbao quickly climbed to the top of its head, stretched out its claws and fixed it firmly on it, refusing to let go no matter how it shook.

His sight was suddenly blocked by the Heart Scale Treasure, and his attack was in vain. The aluminum steel dragon was now extremely angry, roaring and waving his claws to the top of his head, but to no avail.

A cruel fact lies in front of the aluminum steel dragon. Its arms are too short and cannot reach the top of its head.

Chibana laughed out loud when he saw this. He skillfully took out his mobile phone and took a picture of himself and this ridiculous scene.

However, fun is fun, and Qibana agrees with Xia Ye's idea of ​​​​finding the opponent's weaknesses. This is the key to defeating the strong with the weak.
