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

The next morning, when Lu Yi had a good sleep and just opened his eyes, Senior Picosi was already waiting for him outside the door.

"..."

"Three challengers?"

Lu Yi stared at the other person blankly. Before he could even have breakfast, he was shocked.

What is Picosi doing? He wants me to fight three trainers with 7 badges in one day?

You know, I am different from Xia Bo! The group of monsters in the old man's backyard are always ready for battle, and every one of them is a top-notch expert!

On the other hand, around him, Diesiban, the main defensive force, was still in deep training, and Picosi was sent to Miss Nancy by Lu Yi after the gang clearing operation.

With both main players not at home, the only Pokémon that can appear are Arcanine, Eldar, Steelix, Dragonite, Lucario, and the recently abducted Tarantula.

Can the partners withstand such high-intensity continuous battles?

Senior Picosi seemed to see his hesitation and immediately comforted him by saying that the three challengers would choose to challenge in the morning, afternoon, and evening respectively, so it was not particularly urgent.

Lu Yi still looked helpless. He was worried that his teammates would not have enough rest time. Not only would he have no alternative replacement plan, but it would also easily affect the challengers' actual competition experience. Wouldn't that be a delay for both sides?

But Picosi told him that there was no time to worry, as the first challenger would arrive at the Red Lotus Gym in about half an hour, and he had to get his companions ready as soon as possible.

Lu Yi felt like he was being forced into a task, so he quickly took the time to wash up and eat. Then he thought about countermeasures and the competition system while waiting in the Red Lotus Gym.

Not long after, a vigorous young man walked in.

He was wearing a baseball cap, a red coat, and a cute chinchilla followed by his feet.

The young man looked very confident, especially after he found out that the head of the Honglian Gym today was not Xia Bo, but a young boy.

He said his name was Axing and he came from the distant Unova region. He had participated in two league conferences so far, with his best result being top 2. This year's challenge to the Quartz League was the third journey for him and his partners.

Lu Yi was a little surprised when he heard this, thinking that this kid could be carrying the same group of companions that he had conquered from the United States at the beginning? If so, how strong would they be now after experiencing the baptism of three alliance conferences?

Fortunately, Axing denied this statement. He felt that the so-called journey was to encounter various Pokémon on the road and then forge a wonderful bond with them.

Therefore, except for his initial partner Chino Chinchilla, the other Pokémon that challenged the gym were all captured from the Kanto region.

After listening to his explanation, Lu Yi used an Earth word to describe his overall lineup, which is "one super and many strong".

The power level of this Chino Chinchilla is probably ridiculously high, like Ash's Pikachu!

But in comparison, Axing’s other partners probably don’t have as much combat experience.

Lu Yi quickly came to a conclusion and then took out the Poké Balls of Arcanine, Eldorado, and Lucario.

"I understand your basic information. This match will adopt the 3vs3 rule. Is that acceptable to you?"

“3vs3？”阿星明显一愣。“第7、第8道馆，不应该是5vs5的赛制吗？？怎么你这里降低标准了？”

"Haha! It's my fault for not explaining it clearly." Lu Yi smiled.

“你理解的那个3vs3，是单打规则。而我说的3vs3，是双方选手同时派出3只精灵进行混战！”

Hearing this, Ah Xing widened his eyes in disbelief!

"Three vs. Three?? Oh my gosh! Isn't this a popular niche competition system in my hometown!?"

Ah Xing's cognition was completely overturned, because the three-on-one rule became popular in the Unova region.

The regional gyms across the entire continent all use singles and doubles as the basic competition system. Who would have thought that we would encounter a three-way rule in the Kanto region!

But Lu Yi disagreed. Honglian Gym has always had special rules set by the old man. From the early "answer puzzles" to the current "6-on-1 life-and-death battle", if Honglian Gym does not come up with some new tricks, it seems to have lost its original characteristics.

Moreover, the purpose of Lu Yi proposing this tactic was to train tactical capabilities with the challengers so as to facilitate the response to various unexpected challenges in the future.

“I personally think that trainers are often involved in various types of disputes while traveling. We may encounter vicious incidents, and we may encounter situations where wild Pokémon fight for the chassis.

Those scenes are extremely chaotic and require trainers and partners to work together to deal with them.

So, on weekdays, it is obviously not enough to just train to command a certain elf to fight. When we really encounter a crisis and need to step up and command all our companions at the same time, you can't be too busy, right?"

Lu Yi looked at Ah Xing seriously, and the latter nodded thoughtfully.

"So, in this gym match, I want to test your ability to lead a team battle. Can you accept the rules of the match?"

After listening to Lu Yi's explanation, A Xing agreed very readily!

"No problem! You're right. Regular gym matches are all based on basic rotation systems. If I really encounter danger in the wild, the bad guys won't tell me any rules. It's still necessary to get familiar with teamwork on a daily basis."

Ah Xing fully agreed with the rules proposed by Lu Yi, and then slowly stepped into the position of challenger.

During the conversation, the lively and lovely Reina also appeared at the referee's table. She had just finished washing the dishes. The breakfast for Lu Yi and the elves was made by Chef Reina!

"My busy assistant, you'll have to work hard again today!"

Lu Yi teased Lina, who happily showed her two rows of white teeth.

“It’s not hard, it’s so much fun!”

After saying this, Reina picked up a small flag, ready to announce the start of the game.

Speaking of which, this was her first time participating in Lu Yi's gym competition. She didn't expect that the latter would attend as the acting gym leader!

"Are both players ready?"

Lina looked at them with great interest, Lu nodded, and Axing shouted "OK".

The next moment, Lina raised the small red flag in her right hand, her body straight, highlighting the two proud peaks on her chest.

"I declare that the three-on-three match between challenger A Xing and the acting leader of the Honglian Gym, Lu Yi, has officially begun!"

"Arcane, Eldorado, Lucario! I leave it to you!"

"Chino Chinchilla, Naughty Thunder Bomb, Kairos! Let the opponent see how powerful we are!"

As referee Lina announced the start of the game, both players sent out their elves to participate!

Just by taking a look at Ah Xing's lineup, Lu Yi felt that he had made the right bet. Sure enough, only by arranging the three of them to fight together could he gain the upper hand over Ah Xing!

Because from the moment Ah Xing entered the room to the moment he stepped onto the stage, he did not perform any unnecessary movements. He did not have difficulty making choices, nor did he ask questions about the differences in the competition system. Basically, as long as you explained the details to him, he would immediately execute them!

Therefore, Lu Yi judged that Axing should be a person who is quick and decisive and does not like to drag things out, so the direction of his Pokémon training is likely to be "speed attack"!

In addition, the Chinchilla that walked in with him was a Pokémon known for its speed, so Lu Yi wanted to fight back with an even faster speed!

Sure enough, there is a Naughty Thunderbolt in Axing’s lineup, which is one of the fastest types of ordinary Pokémon!

And the other guy, Kairos, also has something to say.

This group has three characteristics: "Super Strength" which does not reduce the opponent's desire to attack, "Unconventional" which ignores the opponent's characteristics when attacking, and "Overconfidence" which makes them more excited every time they defeat the enemy!

Kairos is a natural attacker and fighter! He is also the one with the greatest potential threat in Axing's lineup!

We must find a way to prioritize it!
