Pokémon: The Climb

the next day.

At the transmission channel.

Haruhiko is saying goodbye to Nagai and Chinatsu.

We may not be able to see each other again for a long time, and we may not even be able to talk on the phone.

"Teacher, thank you for your care and guidance over the past year. I will never forget your kindness as a student!" Yang Yan took a step back, bent at ninety degrees, and bowed deeply.

"Why are you so sad? It's not like we're gone again, it's like we're parting from life or death." Nagai quickly waved his hand and pushed Yang Yan to let him leave: "Let's go quickly, everyone else is waiting for you!"

"By the way, don't forget your identity as a breeder in the future!"

Nagai specifically emphasized that there was no way, Yohiko's achievements in the training field were no worse than those of the breeders, and he himself loved trainers more. Nagai did not want Yohiko to really give up on the cultivation family in the future, so in the end he couldn't bear it. Just give me a reminder.

Yang Yan stood up and smiled: "Don't worry, teacher, I plan to continue to leave my name in the development of intermediate fairy energy cubes!"

"You kid!" Nagai was so angry that he pointed at Yang Yan and said, "I didn't know you could talk big words without blushing and your heart not beating. You'd better find a way to solve Cui Yunhua's survival first. Let’s talk about other issues, and be careful of being greedy.”

Yang Yan smiled, then became serious and said, "Teacher, I'm leaving then. Please take care of yourself."

"Let's go!" Nagai waved his hand impatiently.

"Sister Qianxia, ​​take care of yourself and help me take care of the teacher."

Qianxia agreed: "Don't worry, I'm here."

Yang Yan nodded, and before leaving, he gave one last reminder: "Teacher, remember what I told you yesterday. If there is danger, you should put your own safety first, and evacuate as soon as possible!"

"Okay, mother-in-law, I still need you to remind me!" Changjing became even more impatient.

Slowly walking to the entrance of the teleportation passage, more than ten people had already arrived here early.

They are the same people as Yang Yan, who are preparing to leave and return to Kanto. The difference is that they had to go back because their Pokémon suffered heavy casualties and lacked strength.

When he walked into the passage, Yang Yan couldn't help but look back.

"Teacher, Sister Chinatsu, take care!"

……

Return to the ruins.

Yang Yan was surprised to see the busy scene in front of him.

Countless workers are working in full swing, and facilities are rising from the ground.

But the original ruins are no longer visible in the field of vision.

"What the hell is this?"

He couldn't help but ask the people who came out with him.

After a while, he couldn't help but sigh: "So that's it!"

Only then did he realize that when he was sucked into the space channel, the entire surrounding ruins were also destroyed and razed to the ground.

Later, the Kanto League asked the Kalos League for help, and they got a would-be champion who could use the power of space.

So that space was actually discovered by Kanto and Carlos at the same time.

But after all, it was the Kanto side who found it first, and they needed to search and rescue the people who died before, so the Carlos Alliance generously gave the Kanto side 3 months of advance exploration rights.

After 3 months, they will jointly develop that space with Kanto.

Yang Yan expressed contempt for this.

Calling it magnanimous, Carlos' side actually just wants the people from Kanto to help them make the journey first, so that they can make fewer sacrifices.

Anyway, this ruins is here. The Kanto Alliance is far away from the ends of the world, and it is impossible to bypass Carlos and monopolize this independent space, so this is a conspiracy.

The Kanto Alliance was anxious to rescue people again, so they had no choice but to suffer this dumb loss.

The people Yang Yan saw in front of him were from the Carlos Alliance.

Kanto built a base in an independent space, and Carlos built it in this world.

Three months is enough time for them to make all the necessary preparations.

The reason why Fujita hopes that Haruhiko stays is because there is too little time left for him.

Unfortunately, Yang Yan already knew what was going on in that space, so he had no interest in staying.

In fact, people like Carlos are not without benefits here. At least they have already opened up a safe road from here back to the nearest city, which Yang Yan and others can use.

Among the more than 10 people among them, Yang Yan was undoubtedly the strongest. The reason why Fujita did not let anyone else escort him was because there was a safe road opened by the Carlos people.

After spending 3 days traveling all the way, Yang Yan finally returned to human society again.

After that, he spent an hour hastily replenishing three months' worth of supplies, barely replenishing the supply of energy cubes. Finally, at the last moment, he boarded the train back to Baike City.

When they came here, they got off the boat from Baike City, and when they returned, they still got on the boat from Baike City.

One week later, Yang Yan was already on the ship returning to Kanto.

But the ship won't leave for two days.

And tonight is the day when Yang Yan, Jiumei and others gather for dinner.

Celebrate Yang Yan's safe return, and also celebrate... being able to leave Carlos.

Thinking back to the high-spirited self more than a year ago, and recalling the tragic experience some time ago, I feel that there are always too many surprises in life, which catch people off guard.

As early as on the way back, Yang Yan had already spoken with Jiumei and others on the phone and learned about their losses in that battle.

Much bigger than Yang Yan thought.

To sum it up in one sentence, almost all Pokémon with advanced strength and above died in the battle.

Only Jiumei's Shuttlecock Cotton was spared because he mainly stayed at the rear of the battlefield because he was mainly a support player.

The worst thing is Shouzhu, all 5 of the main forces were killed in the battle, and currently only one Echinacea is in hand.

Followed by Takayanagi and Rina, they lost 4 main players. Matsaki and Yashu lost three.

Jiumei is the least, with only 2. But this cannot be said to be luck, after all, the strength of Pokémon Kumi is the lowest among them.

At that time, Takayanagi couldn't help but laugh at himself, saying that if Akagi hadn't ordered them to sign up for the alliance conference and asked them to find a way to conquer a few more Pokémon in Kalos, I'm afraid they wouldn't be called trainers now.

Although Gao Liu was not sad at all when he said this, and was even smiling, how could Yang Yan not hear the pain in it.

The few Pokémon they lost were the ones they spent several years cultivating. Not to mention the cost, the emotional blow is really something that cannot be easily overcome.

Yes, although Yang Yan was equally sad, he had never experienced such a thing and could not really empathize with it.

In fact, not having experienced it is a kind of luck, but Yang Yan cannot apply these two words to himself.

Not long after he became a trainer, he had already made up his mind that he would not let any of his Pokémon die in battle!

He has worked hard to this end and his vow has never been broken.

The future will not be broken.

He Yang Yan said it!
