Pokémon: I'm a detective, not the sixth one.

Lu Yi thanked his eldest brother, and then pushed open the inner glass door of Hualan Gym with his confused eyes.

"Eh?? Why are you going??"

Hearing the question coming from behind, Lu Yi turned his head with confusion.

"Challenge the gym! Otherwise, why would I be here?"

"Ah???" The guard brother was completely shocked, and his opinion of Lu Yi changed again and again!

"No, brother, you asked me about the cordon for a long time. Turns out he is a gym challenger?"

"Yup!"

Lu kept looking at the other party with an expression that seemed to say: "What do you think?"

The eldest doorman curled his lips. Unexpectedly, he was chatting happily one second and was forced to go to work the next second.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll tell you the challenge rules of Hualan Gym..."

The eldest brother sighed with physical and mental exhaustion, feeling much older in an instant.

"The Hualan Gym is one of the most challenging gyms because the competition venue here is very particular and is not a common world-standard arena."

Hearing the words of the doorman, Lu Yi put his arm down from the glass door and turned to look at him.

Of course he knows the difficulty of the challenge at Hualan Gym. If he remembers correctly, the competition venue here is a huge swimming pool!

The full name of the so-called "World Standard Pokémon Arena" mentioned by the elder brother should be called "World Standard Pokémon Battle Arena", which can simultaneously withstand the power of Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, and Gigantamax Pokémon!

The World Standard Arena is not only very wide, but the construction materials have been strictly controlled, making it the most widely used competition venue!

At this moment, seeing that Lu Yi did not show any nervousness or confusion, the guard brother was a little confused.

Did he make a mistake again? Isn't he a new trainer?

"Why aren't you surprised at all?"

Hearing this, Lu Yi blinked on the spot and thought, should I show surprise?

"Well... I have watched matches at the Hualan Gym before, so I already know the environment here."

Lu Yi chose the same rhetoric as when he faced Xiaogang, which immediately cleared the doorman's doubts.

"Oh! So that's what happened!" The eldest brother was very happy. He really didn't miss it. This guy came here for the four sisters in swimsuits!

I thought you were not good at this. You have finally exposed the true nature of us men, right? You've experienced feelings more than once!

"Then I can rest assured. You must have prepared sufficient tactics."

"Currently, only Master Xiaoxia is guarding the gym. The other three sisters have gone to assist Miss Junsha in investigating the case, so you cannot freely choose your opponent."

The doorman said, pointing to the inside of the glass door.

"No, the short-haired girl swimming in the pool over there is our Xiaoxia Hall owner."

"Brother, if you want to challenge the gym, you have to hurry up. We will close in two hours at most. Gym Leader Xiaoxia will go to help hunt down the suspects in the evening, so we can't waste time here!"

Hearing this, Lu nodded, and then expressed his gratitude to the guard brother again.

"Ok, thank you."

He turned around and pushed open the glass door, while the guard used the intercom to contact the referee and Xiaoxia Gym Leader, indicating that they were ready to welcome the gym challenger.

Lu Yi looked around at the magnificent interior buildings, and it didn't take long before he reached the middle of the wing of the swimming pool.

"Hello, are you the challenger?"

Xiaoxia had already stood here in advance. She was wearing a white towel behind her neck and holding both ends of the towel with her hands. She looked very refreshed.

Lu Yi smiled and nodded.

"Yes, hello, Master Xiaoxia."

"My name is Lu Yi, from Honglian Island. I currently have a gym badge."

Xiaoxia was suddenly surprised when she heard Lu Yi's self-introduction.

"Eh? Red Lotus Island?"

Xiaoxia stared in disbelief. She had been the gym leader for so many years, and she could count the number of new trainers from Honglian Island she had met on one hand!

It’s not that this place is sparsely populated, it’s mainly because most of the residents there are under the care of Senior Xia Bo. The beginner companions are basically fire elves, and few people will choose to challenge Hua Lan at the second badge stage. Gym!

The weaker the overall strength of the elves, the fewer countermeasures they have.

For a new trainer like Lu Yi who only has one badge, I'm afraid the partner elf is only at the early stage of the normal level, right?

Is he going to use fire spirits to challenge water gyms? ?

"Um...has Mr. Gatekeeper made it clear to you about the details of the competition?"

Xiaoxia was not sure whether Lu Yi was really ready, and still hoped that he would think it through with some concern!

"Well, I made it clear. He also told me to try my best to seize the time and not delay you in assisting Miss Junsha in handling the case."

"So, let's get started right away!"

Lu Yi looked serious and full of momentum.

Although Xiaoxia's heart is full of question marks, she still respects the choice of every challenger.

"Okay, let's start!"

……

"The competition adopts a 2vs2 singles format. Both sides can send a total of two Pokémon to participate in the battle, and are allowed to alternate Pokémon during the battle."

As Lu Yi and Xiaoxia boarded their respective command floating boards, the referee also began to announce the rules of the game.

Except for the complete change in the venue environment in front of them, the competition system of the Cerulean Blue Gym is no different from that of the Dark Gray Gym. This is probably because Lu Yi's number of badges is not enough to challenge higher-level rules.

He looked around the site. 70% of the surrounding area was covered by water, and there were only a dozen floating boards for land elves to move freely.

Lu Yi was standing on a floating board at this moment. He tentatively swayed left and right, and the floating board immediately showed an uneven tilt.

It seems that it is difficult for Pokémon that are heavy and slow to move here, and it is even harder to imagine the consequences of fire-type Pokémon like Cady Dog once they fall into the water!

"Lu Yi, you have to be careful! This is my starting elf!"

On the opposite side, while Lu Yi was still carefully thinking about tactics, Xiaoxia had already sent out the starting elves as a priority!

It was an early-stage ordinary-level starfish. Judging from the luster of the red gem at its core, it was cultivated to perfection!

Seeing such a strong opponent, Lu Yi took a deep breath and then took out a red and white ball from his waist.

"It's time to start our first collaboration."

"Cheer up! Pippi!"
