"Xiaozhi...why?"

Facing the pink-haired girl's watery, puzzled eyes,

Xiaozhi smiled and shrugged, "Isn't the gym challenge used to test one's own shortcomings?"

If someone has been a gym leader for a long time, they might praise Ash for doing the right thing and discovering Lucario's shortcomings in time.

Or, wondering why Ash simply gave up the game after Lucario lost.

But these are different from Zi Yu's ideas.

And just as Xiaozhi's words came out,

Zi Yu then remembered the mission of the gym leader.

Thinking back to the past when I was just fighting with my opponent,

For a moment, he looked around guiltily, not daring to look Xiaozhi in the eye.

"Remember to point out your opponent's shortcomings in the future."

"I know...I know."

"Then tell me about Lucario's shortcomings?"

"..."

Zi Yu widened his eyes and looked at Xiao Zhi in disbelief.

"Hmph, am I the gym leader or are you the gym leader? Come on, come on, come on."

Zi Yu was shaking with anger. He pointed to where he was standing and then ran away quickly.

obviously,

The angry counterattack just now was just a paper tiger with no substance.

It was not until they reached the exit of the battle room that Zi Yu stopped, turned around, made a face at Xiao Zhi, and stuck out his tongue.

"Stupid Xiaozhi, lelelele~"

Watching the youthful girl flee, Xiaozhi was in a very good mood.

But it was very confusing to shoot Rotom in the air.

Why does the gym leader seem to be afraid of this failed challenger? (wДw)

It's really confusing.

As Aerial Rotom returned to the warehouse in deep thought, he left the scene through the socket.

Only Ash, Lucario, and Atelier were left in the battle arena.

With a glance, he noticed the butler's drooping ears and big, watery eyes that were about to shed tears.

The cute look almost melted Xiaozhi's heart.

"Don't be so cute, Aibutan-chan, you have done a good job in this battle. It's Lucario's own shortcomings."

He gently rubbed the butler's head and hugged him again.

The butler was also cautious and obedient, stretching out his short hands to hug Xiaozhi, suffocating himself and feeling the warmth in Xiaozhi's arms.

But judging from her slightly pursed lips, Ai Guanshi did not completely remove herself.

Xiaozhi picked up Lucario, who had lost his ability to fight, and was the first to step through Hoopa's portal.

Hoopa and Butler followed closely behind.

-

Island of the Gods Beach,

The soft sunlight in the early morning shines on the beach, and the breeze is gentle.

Lucario woke up with an extremely comfortable feeling, just like taking a hot spring bath in the snow.

Lucario opened his eyes and saw Xiaozhi treating him.

Then I thought of the failure just now.

All the comfort on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by endless loss.

When Lucario stood up from the beach,

With a glimpse, he saw the love steward being taught by Shining Gardevoir and Latias at the edge of the forest in the distance.

He curled his lips.

I have already mastered the powerful wave missile. If Ai Guanshi's help was stronger, I would have won, right?

This made Lucario feel very aggrieved.

He roared a few times in the direction of Ai Guanshi with resentment.

Pokémon has very sensitive ears.

The butler immediately heard Lucario's blame-shifting and lowered his head even lower.

however,

Ai Guanshi is willing to take the blame, but that doesn't mean it is the truth.

After learning the truth from Satoshi, Gardevoir and Latias have always been very caring towards the kind-hearted Servant.

This time he was immediately angry.

Xiaozhi was also angry.

It's really like a little puppy who dares to shirk responsibility if he is not punished for three days.

Get him.

Following Xiaozhi's eye signal, Gardevoir, who originally wanted to teach Lucario a lesson, immediately opened up its full aura and locked onto Lucario with its breath.

The terrifying pressure made it extremely difficult for Lucario to breathe, and he felt suffocated.

A burst of moon power of moderate strength struck down, making the dog cry out in pain, but not killing it instantly.

"Luca Luca~"

Lucario raised his head with grievance, tears welling up in his eyes, and looked at Xiaozhi.

The intention couldn't be more obvious.

He wanted Xiaozhi to stand up for him, so he made a Shiny Gardevoir.

however……

Xiaozhi certainly couldn't dote on a child who was just born not long ago and was still like a blank sheet of paper.

We must not allow Lucario to develop into a disaster-level giant baby who likes to pass the buck, tell tales, is weak and can be bullied, and just cries and looks for his parents when he encounters difficulties.

The current situation,

Xiaozhi could only show his strict side to help the newborn Lucario establish correct values.

"Stand up, what is this expression of yours, these eyes, these tears?"

Xiaozhi's severity made Lucario in the center of the ruins stunned.

Shouldn't he help him and teach Gardevoir a lesson for attacking him for no reason? Why is Xiaozhi scolding him instead?

For a long time,

Seeing that Lucario had come back to his senses, Xiaozhi knew that the other party was now listening, so he continued in a slightly softer tone:

"Can tears help you defeat Gardevoir?"

"Luka..."

Lucario shook his head.

"Since you know, then follow me."

Xiaozhi ran in front and ran a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye.

The speed was so fast that both Gardevoir and Aibutu were shocked.

Needless to say, Lucario was afraid of being lost, so he quickly followed with all his might.

A special training on improving mentality and strength began.

In addition to beaches, the island also has forests, mountains, glaciers, volcanoes, lakes and other terrains.

Knowing that Lucario's speed is limited, Xiaozhi deliberately hangs far away from Lucario's sight to prevent Lucario from getting lost.

About half an hour passed.

Lucario started to get a little irritated from the repetitive running.

An hour passed.

Lucario began to lose strength and held his knees with both hands, gasping for breath.

"Keep up! Are you worthy of your teammates' efforts and trust?"

With Xiaozhi's loud shout,

Lucario's grievance suddenly burst out.

"Luca~" What dedication and trust? It was obviously the butler who was holding us back. He had mastered the powerful wave missile.

Roared angrily,

Lucario didn't cry or sit on the ground screaming. Instead, he gritted his teeth and tried his best to catch up with Xiaozhi while breathing heavily.

This prevented Xiaozhi from launching a powerful punch.

Putting aside the issue of passing the buck, this resilience is still commendable.

Keep running,

Another hour passed.

Lucario gritted his teeth and kept running.

There was no end in sight in the run. If it weren't for Xiaozhi leading by example, Lucario would have found a shady place to rest long ago.

now,

The scorching sun has reached the top of our heads and the temperature has begun to rise.

Compared to the early morning, the difficulty of running has increased again.

Enduring the constant overflow of sweat,

Another hour passed, and Lucario still couldn't see the end. Tears welled up in his eyes.

He felt very aggrieved. Why couldn't he stand in the shade and grow stronger happily like Ai Guanshi? Why did he have to suffer?
