Pokémon: The Climb

In the next few days, Yang Yan will come here to supervise the progress of the project when he has time until the college starts in September.

Yang Yan was invited to come to the Ranger Academy on the second day of school.

"Teacher Takagi, long time no see. How are you doing?" Yang Yan stepped forward to greet him.

The person in front of him was Takagi, Yang Yan's class teacher at the ranger academy.

Compared with the person in Yang Yan's memory a few years ago, Takagi at this time has a few more wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and his aura is more calm and sophisticated.

Takagi smiled and patted Yang Yan on the shoulder: "Yang Yan, back then I had a premonition that your kid would be promising. Sure enough, he first showed off his skills in the Hoenn Trial, and then quietly ran to Carlos to get it. A League Conference champion is back. If it weren’t for the recent rumors about Carlos in various parts of Hoenn, plus Sapling’s explanation, I would have thought that the League Conference champion they were talking about was someone with the same name. Good job , Teacher is proud of you!"

Yang Yan bowed slightly and said, "Teacher, I am overrated. I am where I am today thanks to your teachings back then."

"Teacher, are the students waiting? Look..."

At this time, Shashu pointed at a group of students gathered in the square.

Young Shu is still just a teaching assistant, a teaching assistant under Takagi. So the students Takagi talks about are actually Takagi's students.

These are the new classes that Takagi took after sending away Yang Yan's group of students.

Now, like Yang Yan back then, they have just reached the third grade, that is, when they first became trainers.

每年的5月—6月是联盟大会举办的时候，7月—8月是10岁之人获取第一只宝可梦，同时也是踏上训练家之路的时候。

Looking at these young men with bright eyes sitting on the grass, Yang Yan couldn't help but think of himself.

When he first became a trainer, he was also full of expectations for the future.

Of course, maybe what they are looking forward to is not Yang Yan as a person, but the aura of league championship in him. But in this world, as long as you are a trainer, who doesn't aspire to become the champion of the conference?

Yang Yan was the first league champion that they had come into close contact with in their lives. It would be a lie to say that he was not excited.

"Yes, yes, those children are waiting to see you, let's go there first!"

Takagi also knows that now is not the time to reminisce about the past, as his group of students are "eager to see through".

Takagi was in front, leading Yang Yan slowly to the students.

"Students, this is the senior who I mentioned to you yesterday, Omu Yohiko, who graduated from our ranger academy a few years ago. He is also the champion of the first Carlos Alliance Conference. Today, I am looking for him. Come and give a speech to the students, everyone is welcome!"

Suddenly, a fierce round of applause resounded through the sky.

Takagi took advantage of the situation and pushed Yang Yan to the front.

When the applause stopped, Yang Yan slowly spoke.

"Actually, Mr. Takagi came to see me today, and I didn't think about what to say, because I just became a trainer a little earlier than you. Now, I am no different from you. We are all people who are working hard to move forward as trainers. "

"Perhaps you want to hear how I killed everyone in the alliance conference, defeating powerful enemies one after another in exciting battles, and want to know how I arranged my troops and designed tactics."

"But these were useful to me then, but they don't mean much to me now, or to you now."

"Because every match between us since we became trainers is different. If we can guarantee that we will do our best after absorbing previous experience in the next match, then the outcome will not be so important. .”

"I don't like to talk about ideals. They are too far away and have little to do with the present. I only tell myself one thing every day, and that is today, and I will not waste it! Keep moving forward every day. As for where the end point will be, it doesn't matter. Think about it, because time will give you the answer.”

"It doesn't matter whether the students are preparing to be a trainer, a breeder, a ranger, or any other profession, the most important thing is to live the present moment well!"

"Remember, every bit of knowledge you learn and every drop of sweat you put in will actively lead you to the path you should take."

"No matter where you are from, your dreams, or your grades, they are all imaginary. Only the knowledge you master, the sweat of hard work, and the hard time are the real rewards. So I only have one sentence for my classmates, work hard. Well, only hard work will not let you down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, applause sounded again.

Of course, many people raised their hands.

Yang Yan randomly selected a male classmate.

The man stood up and asked: "Senior, you said you have to work hard, but I think I work hard too, but why don't I get the first place in every exam? I heard the teacher say, senior, when you were in the college I rank first in grade every time I take exams. Do you have any special learning methods, senior?"

Takagi also introduced by the way: "This child is the hardest-working person in our class, but he is only in the top 10 of his grade every time he takes the exam, and he has never been first."

Yang Yan nodded, and then said: "Classmate, learning methods vary from person to person. I don't use any special method, I'm just good at summarizing. Besides, why do you have to worry about the first place? There is no need for people to compete with others. To compare with others, you only need to compare with yourself. As I just said, you only need to ensure that you are moving forward every day. You must be better today than you were yesterday. This is enough. What we need to fight for is not The results of a test. Winning first is not about winning. Persevere until the end and then look back. Then you will no longer care about the results of each test."

The male classmate sat down again as if he didn't understand.

Yang Yan clicked on another male classmate with the highest raised hand.

The man stood up and shouted excitedly: "Senior, I don't understand what you are saying. I just want to see the league championship battle with my own eyes. I want to know if I can be as good as you in the future!"

"I also want to see!"

"Me too!"

"We all want to see it!"

In fact, for them, no matter how much Yang Yan talks, they may not remember it, and even if they remember it, they may not understand it. On the contrary, fighting is more likely to make everyone's blood boil.

After all, how many trainers in this world don't like fighting?

Yang Yan glanced at the group of people below with a smile and said with a smile: "You all think so? It seems that I can't refuse."

"I know that everyone has just gotten their starter Pokémon and become trainers, and they are all eager to battle."

"Okay, then I will compete with this classmate to satisfy you!"

Young Shu suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Yang Yan: "Isn't this inappropriate? Your Pokémon is so strong that they only got the Pokémon. How can they be your opponents? Aren't you just bullying others?"

Yang Yan looked innocent: "How could I bully my classmates? Of course I can't use my main force!"

"So, aren't there a lot of Pokémon for teaching in the academy? I'll randomly pick one out and fight this classmate. What do you think?"
