Pokémon Showdown: Silver Peak

With the help of three members of Team Rocket, Xiaozhi won the qualification to face off against Xia Bo. Although Xia Bo gives the impression of being eccentric and unreliable, his strength is definitely among the best among the many gym owners in the Kanto region. Therefore, after getting the opportunity to challenge Xia Bo, Xiaozhi did not show excessive excitement.

He first let all the Pokémon relax in the hot springs to relieve their fatigue, while he himself made energy cubes next to the hot springs. He used the ten Dragon Flame Fruits rewarded by the system and put them into the fruit processor. Combining hot spring water rich in volcanic negative ions with spicy cherry and orange fruits, after 12 minutes and 46 seconds of careful conditioning, Xiaozhi successfully produced three energy cubes as big as a fist.

"The energy cubes are up to you." Xiaozhi put away the remaining two, and then called: "Charizard, come here!"

Charizard was sitting by the hot spring soaking his feet because he was afraid that his tail would get wet. When he heard Xiaozhi's call, he immediately ran over excitedly.

"You will definitely participate in today's game, eat this first." Xiaozhi handed the energy cube to Charizard and checked its level, which was level 46. He thought it was enough to meet any challenge.

The fire-breathing dragon swallowed the energy cube in three mouthfuls. The flames of its tail burned even more intensely. The two iron fists collided with each other, and the state reached an unprecedented height.

"Whether it's a dragon or an insect, it all depends on your own performance." Xiaozhi patted Charizard on the shoulder and made up his mind.

At the same time, Xiaogang was still thinking hard about a puzzle: "What is the big flood above and the big fire below? It's too difficult..."

Xiaozhi stood up suddenly and pointed at the Gyarados-shaped water inlet, his eyes flashing with excitement. "Don't think about it anymore, this is our hot spring paradise. The water is pouring down like a torrent from above, and the flames are blazing below. It's a wonderful experience!"

"I'll get some juice." Xiaogang said, and his figure quickly disappeared into the hot spring area in search of a refreshing drink.

"Eevee, get in!" Ash ordered, and his Pokémon Eevee jumped lightly onto the Gyarados-shaped water inlet. As Ibrahimovic rubbed it a few times, a rumbling sound was heard, and the ground seemed to be shaking. A stone door slowly opened, and the stone wall that separated the men's and women's baths collapsed, and the entire space suddenly opened up.

At this moment, Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia and Nazhi were all stunned. They looked at each other awkwardly, because of the sudden accident, all three of them were naked facing each other.

"Ah!" Xiaoxia and Nazi screamed at the same time, their faces red.

"Hurry and cover your face, don't look!" Xiaozhi shouted hurriedly.

Xiaoxia and Nazi quickly covered their faces with their hands, trying to hide this embarrassing situation.

"Okay, go to the locker room and change. We have to challenge the gym." Xiaozhi said, put away the other Pokémon, dressed himself, and found a hidden intersection with Pikachu.

Soon, Xiaoxia, Xiaogang and Nazhi also came here, and the four of them walked slowly down the stone stairs together.

"Do you feel that it's getting hotter and hotter?" Xiaoxia complained.

"That's true." Xiaogang said with a frown.

"This temperature is not right." Nazi was also confused.

"I guess Uncle Xia may have built a ring on the magma, haha." Xiaozhi said jokingly.

Soon, an iron gate appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Xiaozhi stopped and shouted loudly: "Open sesame!"

There was no response from the iron gate.

Xiaoxia, Xiaogang and Nazi almost lost their footing and almost fell.

Xiaozhi crossed his hands on his chest and said thoughtfully: "Well, it doesn't seem to be controlled by voice." He guessed that this was to induce him to grab the door handle and then be burned into pig's trotters, but he wouldn't Be fooled.

Xiaozhi decided to take direct action. He flew up and kicked the iron door, shouting: "I'll fight!"

Unexpectedly, the iron door opened automatically with just a slight touch. In this hot place, a touch door was actually installed. Xiaozhi secretly admired Xia Bo's creativity.

After the iron door opened, the real Red Lotus Gym battle field was displayed in front of Xiaozhi and the four of them.

They were surprised to find that the battle field was built on top of hot magma and suspended by iron chains, making it a hell-like environment.

When the four people walked into the battle field, the lights around them suddenly turned on.

"Welcome everyone." An uncle who was guessing riddles crossed his arms and stood calmly in the position of the gym leader.

Pikachu was stunned. Isn't this the hotel owner? How did he become the gym leader?

The uncle continued to ask: "When you don't know, you can easily say it, but when you know it, you can't say it. What is it?"

Xiaozhi smiled and shook his head, seeming to understand something.

The uncle then pulled off the blond wig on his head, revealing a gray-white Mediterranean hairstyle, and introduced himself: "I am the gym trainer of Honglian Island, Xia Bo."

Xiaozhi and others were surprised to find that Xia Bo not only wore a wig, but also a fake beard.

Xia Bo asked angrily: "It's hard to get here. Who among the four of you wants to compete with me in a four-on-four match?"

"That's me, Xiaozhi!" He took firm steps forward.

Xiaogang hurriedly reminded: "Xiaozhi, be careful, Uncle Xia must be a master of the fire system!"

Misty also made suggestions: "That's right, Xiaozhi, use your water Pokémon now."

The two sides stood at the competition position. Xia Bo looked at Xiaozhi and asked: "Are you ready?"

Xiaozhi confidently took out the Poké Ball and replied: "I'm ready."

"Then, my first Pokémon is Kyuubi, let's go!" Xia Bo released his first Pokémon, which was the fire-type Kyuubi as expected.

Not to be outdone, Ash chose his water Pokémon: "Blastoise, the decision is yours!"

At the same time, Ash uses his keen observation skills to scan the opponent's level.

The prompt sounded: "Kyuubi, level 40."

It seems that Xia Bo's first Pokémon is elite level. If Xiaozhi sends a Squirtle that is over level 20, he may be in trouble due to unfavorable attributes.

Xia Bo still maintained his confidence and said, "As I expected, you chose the water element."

"Nine Tails, use the flame vortex!" Xia Bo directly launched a flame attack, intending to suppress Xiaozhi with power.

Xiaozhi did not flinch and ordered: "Blastoise, fight back with water cannon!"

"Kame!" The water arrow turtle sprayed out a thick water column to compete with the flames of the nine tails.

The two forces collided and instantly produced a large amount of white smoke.

Xia Bo couldn't help but be surprised: "Oh, it seems that your Water Arrow Turtle is quite powerful."

Xiaozhi struck while the iron was hot and continued to command: "Blastoise, use the high-speed rotating water cannon!"

Xiaozhi seized the opportunity and took the lead in launching an offensive, and the game entered a fierce stage.

In a fierce battle, the Water Arrow Turtle showed amazing speed. It quickly accelerated and sprinted, releasing a series of rotating water cannons, accurately hitting the opponent's Nine Tails. With a loud noise, Kyuubi fell down weakly and lost the ability to fight.

"Kame!" Xiaozhi and Blastoise raised their fists together to celebrate the victory of revenge.

Xia Bo's eyes lit up with new fighting spirit, and he announced loudly: "Xiaozhi, you have inspired my enthusiasm and made me more eager to win. Next, send out my second player, the Iron-Armored Tyrannosaurus!"

Xiaozhi responded calmly and decided to continue letting the Blastoise join the battle: "Blastoise, please, keep fighting." Despite the hot environment, the Blastoise was already a little out of breath.

Xia Bo commanded the armored tyrannosaurus to attack: "Use your horn drill!" Obviously, he wanted to consume the water arrow turtle's physical strength in this way.

Xiaozhi responded calmly: "Blastoise, use high-speed rotation and multi-stage water cannon again!"

The water arrow turtle moved in response. It retracted into its shell again, and its high-speed rotating body hit the armored tyrannosaurus like a cannonball. Then, a violent water cannon burst out.

There was another loud noise, and the armored tyrannosaurus fell to the ground, while the water arrow turtle also knelt down on one knee due to exhaustion of physical strength.

"Come back, Blastoise." Xiaozhi knew that Blastoise had done its best.

Xia Bo also recalled the armored tyrannosaurus, and he still looked at Xiaozhi calmly: "Xiaozhi, do you know the hottest flame in the world?"

Xiaozhi answered calmly: "Are you talking about magma? Come on then."

Xia Bo snorted coldly, and then said: "What is hotter than magma is the scorching flame flowing in the magma. Now, let me bring my trump card - the duck-billed fire dragon!"

With the appearance of the duck-billed fire dragon, the battle between Xia Bo and Xiaozhi entered a new climax.
