Pokémon Showdown: Silver Peak

At dawn the next day, Xiaozhi woke up Pikachu, who was still sleeping, and said softly: "Partner, let's go. We don't know where Xiaogang and the others are at the moment." Before he finished speaking, he had already opened the door to the bedroom.

"Oh, it's Xiaogang and Xiaoxia!" Xiaozhi stared at the two people in front of him in astonishment.

"Hey, Xiaozhi, it turns out you are here too!" Xiaogang responded to Xiaozhi's appearance with the same surprise.

"Xiaozhi, I miss you so much! I thought I would never be able to see you again..." When Xiaoxia saw Xiaozhi, her mood collapsed instantly. She ran to Xiaozhi, hugged him tightly, and sobbed. Incessantly.

"Don't cry, Xiaoxia, how could I leave you? Look, am I not by your side?" Xiaozhi looked at Xiaoxia crying in his arms, smiled softly, and comforted her with warm words mood.

"Okay, don't be sad anymore. It's such a coincidence that we can meet at this moment. Today I am planning to challenge the electric gym, why don't we go together..."

Under the distant skyline, a towering ancient tree stands...

"Hey, oh, oh, oh, I'm so emotional. The little guy we have been looking for for a long time has finally appeared..." Meow Meow was immersed in his own emotional world, crying alone.

"Come on, stop being sensational, that little guy is about to leave..." Musashi broke the sad atmosphere with a light kick and teased Meow Meow.

In the Pokémon Center, a teenager rushed in anxiously holding an unconscious Rattata in his arms...

"Little Ratha, you have to hold on! Miss Joy, please save him!" The young man called Joy anxiously.

"Oh, how could it be so seriously injured?" Xiaoxia was full of curiosity and couldn't help but ask.

"Alas, all this was done by Ma Zhishi, the leader of the Electrical Gym in Kuye City. This is already the seventeenth elf to be victimized this month." Miss Joy regretfully put the Rattata on the pushbutton. In the car, Geely Dan pushed him to the emergency room, explaining to Xiaoxia in detail as he walked.

"Wow, this electric gym leader sounds so fierce. Xiaozhi, do we really want to challenge him?" Xiaoxia looked at Xiaozhi with worry in her eyes.

"No need to worry, this is just a piece of cake. If I can't defeat him within three rounds, I'll make a mistake." Xiaozhi walked firmly towards the door, playfully showing Xiaoxia the three-finger gesture of victory as he walked.

Soon after, Xiaozhi and his party came to a building decorated with a striking lightning emblem.

Xiaozhi kicked open the heavy door without hesitation and announced loudly: "Is anyone there? I'm here to challenge the gym!"

"Oh, a little baby actually came today. Hey, even the Pokémon used is a little baby, hahaha..." At this moment, a burst of rough laughter sounded, and a burly, eight-foot-tall man Step into view. His hair stood up as golden as a hedgehog, and his body was full of muscular lines. When his eyes fell on Xiaozhi and Pikachu, his sarcasm was palpable, and at the same time there was a hint of subtle disappointment.

"Hmph...are you really sure?" A sneer appeared on the corner of Xiaozhi's mouth, his eyes fixed on Ma Zhishi.

"Well, I never lose to the weak." At this moment, Ma Zhishi seemed to catch a hint of terror that made his hair stand on end staring at him. However, as a former iron-blooded soldier, how could he be so easily timid? The tenacity and unyielding spirit in his bones was instantly ignited, and the excitement that briefly flashed in his eyes was quickly hidden...

"Needless to say, practice is the criterion for testing truth." Xiaozhi pointed at Pikachu, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "This battle, Pikachu, is left to you."

"Pika!" Pikachu, who had not experienced actual combat for a long time, suddenly became energetic when he heard Xiaozhi's words, and clenched his little fists eagerly...

"Well done, young man, I like your straightforwardness! Then let's have a showdown. There's no need for a referee. This duel is in the form of 1 vs. 1. Whichever side loses the ability to fight first will lose. Do you understand?" Ma Zhishi laughed boldly and declared the rules nonchalantly.

"Leichu, come on!"

"Hmph, is this your ultimate strength? It seems that you are far from reaching the level of fighting me." Xiaozhi's eyes flashed with challenge, "Stop testing with those basic training Pokémon. , show your true trump card - the strongest Pokémon!"

Ma Zhishi smiled slightly, with a trace of admiration in his eyes, "Okay, young man, you have the courage. Then, come out, Self-Destruct Magneto!" He withdrew the Raichu and instead released a powerful self-destruction monster. The coercive aura exuded by Magnemite is obviously several levels higher than Raichu...

"Boy, this self-destructing magnet monster is my initial partner. As long as you can defeat it, I will tell you a secret that you will definitely be interested in. How about it?" There is a hidden meaning in Ma Zhishi's words. "Then come on!" Xiaozhi accepted the challenge without hesitation. After all, in the special story, Ma Zhishi once conquered legendary Pokémon such as Lightning Bird and Thunder God...

"Magneto, release a hundred thousand volt attack!" Ma Zhishi ordered... "Pikachu, use high-speed movement, and then charge up!" "Pika Pika!" Pikachu activated instantly, speeding around the Magneto. Shuttle, while dodging, cleverly absorbing the powerful one hundred thousand volt electric shock energy...

When Pikachu's power was fully charged, Xiaozhi decisively issued the final order...

"Pikachu, use the special skills I taught you recently..." A confident smile appeared on Xiaozhi's lips.

"Pika! Pikachu——" (Thunder Release: Electro Chidori) At this moment, dark clouds rolled in the battlefield, and thunder struck Pikachu's body directly. Pikachu's whole body shimmered with dazzling golden light, converging above his head to form a huge thunder bird over three meters tall. With a wave of his claws, the giant thunder bird flew towards the self-destructing magneto...

chirp——

The giant thunder bird let out a sharp cry and hit the self-destructing magnet monster with overwhelming force. Seeing that the situation was not good, Ma Zhishi immediately shouted an order: "Self-destruct magnet, activate 'hold' immediately!"

In an instant, the self-destructing magnet monster formed a solid protective shield in front of it...

"Ha, you underestimated the power of this move..." Xiaozhi smiled contemptuously, his words full of confidence.

Immediately, the giant thunder bird slammed into the shield...

Click...

In Ma Zhishi's astonished gaze, there was only a shocking sound of rupture. The "absolute protection" skill that was praised by everyone as indestructible was ruthlessly defeated at this moment...

The giant thunder bird slammed into the self-destructing magnet monster with thunderous force, triggering an explosion that shook the world. In an instant, smoke and dust billowed and filled the entire place.

When the smoke gradually dissipated, what was revealed was the self-destructing magnet monster lying on the ground with dizzy stars shining in its eyes.

Ma Zhishi took back the elf ball, faced Xiaozhi, and laughed boldly: "Well done, you are indeed very powerful!"

Xiaozhi responded quite calmly and with a bit of arrogance: "This is just a basic operation, no need to be surprised."

In the audience, Xiaoxia sighed with emotion to Xiaogang next to her: "Oh, Xiaozhi comes back this time and feels that his strength has improved by leaps and bounds!"

Xiaogang nodded in agreement and speculated: "Well, you are right, maybe he has encountered some wonderful experiences in the past few days, which has greatly improved him."

"Young man, your strength is enough to be remembered in my heart. Likewise, you are worthy of knowing my identity... Please allow me to introduce myself again. My name is Ma Zhishi. I was once an iron-blooded soldier." Ma Zhishi frankly extended his right hand to express friendship to Xiaozhi.

"Hello, I am Xiaozhi from Zhenxin Town." Xiaozhi also politely stretched out his hand and held Ma Zhishi's hand tightly, forming a strong bond of first acquaintance.

"Xiao Zhi, maybe you don't know, but I haven't experienced such an exciting duel for a long time. Most of the people who come to challenge every day are novices. They randomly catch Pokémon from the roadside and come here to challenge. This is really... It's exhausting to deal with." Ma Zhishi sat on the floor and expressed his inner feelings to Xiaozhi.

"Master of the stable, you might as well consider selecting some students and letting them accept the challenge first. Only when the challenger can defeat these students will he be qualified to challenge you. Wouldn't this solve this problem?" Xiaozhi? The suggestion was made with a smile.

An idea flashed in Ma Zhishi's mind, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself: "Oh, I'm such a genius, why haven't I realized this idea long ago? In this way, wouldn't I be able to squeeze out more time to optimize the entire Kuye City? The electrical facilities are in place." He chuckled secretly, laughter echoing in his heart.

"Xiao Zhi, this is the orange badge you deserve." Ma Zhishi ordered his assistant to respectfully present the orange badge representing the glory of the Kuye City Electric Gym to Xiao Zhi...

Xiaozhi took the badge with joy, his excitement was palpable, and loudly announced: "I got the third badge successfully!"

"Pikachu" also shouted happily.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Xiaozhi said goodbye to Ma Zhishi, "Master of the horse stable, we say goodbye this time."...

"Wait a moment, Xiaozhi, when you pass by that deserted supply point, you might as well explore in depth. There may be an unexpected surprise waiting for you." Ma Zhishi said with a meaningful smile, his eyes twinkling. Looking forward to it.

Xiaozhi responded with a bright smile: "Master of the horse racing stable, I will keep your suggestion in mind (????????)??????." Then he turned around and embarked on the new journey. journey of.

Looking at Xiaozhi's retreating figure, Ma Zhishi laughed loudly and shouted to Xiaozhi who was drifting away: "Xiaozhi, I look forward to the day when you dominate the Kanto region!"

Xiaozhi looked back and waved affectionately to Ma Zhishi, "There are no places in life where we don't meet again. Thanks to the owner of the stable, I will express my gratitude again until the day we meet again. Master of the stable, farewell." Following the words As he fell, his figure gradually blended into the hazy picture of dusk...

At this moment, deep in the bottom floor of the Dead Leaf Gym...

"Oh my God, what on earth is going on! Why did the ground suddenly collapse and collapse?" Musashi roared almost out of control.

"Well, instead of dwelling on this problem, we should consider how to get out of here." Kojiro responded helplessly.

"Who can come and save us! This feeling is really terrible, meow..."
