Pokémon: I have a Pokémon too!

"Yes, bring some food to eat every day, prepare some ointment for treating injuries and a walking stick, prepare more clothes for changing, and bring more cash."

Shen Xiqing wrote down all the precautions one by one. He didn't expect that there would be so many things to pay attention to when living there for a while.

"The gym owner randomly respawns in the gym. He may be on the roof, on the pole, or at the door. He is elusive. Basically, you can only wait for him to come to you. It is difficult to find him if you take the initiative to look for him."

This phenomenon is not directed at students like Su Yunshang; the formal apprentices in the gym also share this consensus.

"I didn't have much contact with the gym owner, but I could tell he was a rather strict person. The atmosphere in the training ground was very serious, and there was little joking around."

"But this kind of atmosphere makes it easier for people to focus on training, and privately everyone has a pretty good relationship. When you get to Chongshan Town, I'll ask a friend to pick you up."

"Our Ayun is so thoughtful~ When everything is over, I will definitely go to see you as soon as possible."

"Stop flattering me, the real thing is to get a good ranking and let me curry favor with you."

The two best friends joked around for a while and then hung up the phone.

The alliance also responded that the owner of the fighting gym, Ling Jingxiang, would help her develop a training plan.

However, whether he could teach her the secrets of physical strengthening depended on whether Shen Xiqing could gain his favor.

The next morning, Shen Xiqing was ready to say goodbye to An Shu and go to Chongshan.

"Are you all ready?" Seeing Shen Xiqing packing a suitcase, An Shu was like a parent who was worried about her youngster going on a long journey.

"Well! When I come back after completing my studies, what you will see, grandma, is a world champion."

Shen Xiqing took An Shu's hand and shook it, reassuring her in a mischievous tone.

"Grandma believes in you." An Shu patted Shen Xiqing's hand, her eyes kind and tolerant.

The green train whirred into the station, and Shen Xiqing stood by the window and waved goodbye to An Shu.

The dense forest receded into the distance and the interior of the train gradually became noisy.

"Girl, your elf looks strangely familiar, what's your name?"

The passenger sitting opposite Shen Xiqing was the first to speak. This train went all the way north, and each section of the journey was very long. He didn't want to sit in his seat bored and do nothing.

"His name is Paintbearer. He is a new Pokémon discovered in the secret realm of Padia seven years ago. The Alliance's breeding base was officially opened to trainers a few years ago."

Shen Xiqing was not surprised that some people didn't know the Mark Painter. Every time a new elf was discovered, it would take a lot of time just to confirm its attributes and study its characteristics.

The textbooks have only been gradually updated in recent years. Trainers like them who have graduated from compulsory education long ago need to pay attention to the official account of the Pokémon Encyclopedia at all times in addition to university classes.

This way, you can get to know and learn about the newly discovered elves at any time. After all, no one wants to suddenly become a master of reverse attributes in the battlefield and be called a joke by the audience.

"This little thing is really attractive. What's its attribute?"

Tu Biao Ke's appearance is cute and a bit cool, and with his big green eyes and slightly arrogant expression, he looks so cute no matter how you look at him.

"A Pokémon with both Normal and Poison attributes. Its special features include Light Armor and Poison Hands. Its hidden special feature is Mischievous Heart. It has a good personality and is smart. It is a great Pokémon and is highly recommended for breeding."

Shen Xiqing held Tu Biao Ke's cheeks with both hands from behind. No matter how he rubbed them into rounds or flats, or stroked them along or against the hair, Tu Biao Ke did not show any sign of annoyance or irritation.

"You two have a really good relationship. Otherwise, even the best-tempered elves wouldn't be able to stand your torment."

The boys joked cheerfully that Shen Xiqing's attack was real and Tu Biaoke's hair was now in a mess.

Tu Biaoke looked at the man with admiration, but he was not fooled by his appearance.

In fact, only Shen Xiqing's painter has such a good temper. In the painter's impression, other painters living in the cultivation house are actually rather cold and aloof, and not very friendly.

Even Shen Xiqing had a misunderstanding that a mild-mannered mole does not necessarily mean that it is a family.

At that time, they had a clear understanding of their own strength, so they chose not to attack unless absolutely necessary.

The two people who were not socially anxious sat together and quickly became familiar with each other and exchanged names.

"I see you are not that old, you should be in school, why are you taking the bus here?"

Yan Zixin had just graduated and his student radar had not yet faded. He could tell at a glance that Shen Xiqing was still a student.

"I'm here to study and plan to visit Chongshan first."

Although Chongshan is not a tourist fighting venue, it has a fighting gym, so it is a suitable place for study tour.

"I'm going to Chongshan too, but I'm going to challenge a gym. We're on the same route, so let's go shopping together then."

Yan Zixin enthusiastically invited Shen Xiqing to join him. It was the first time he met such a destined person.

"Challenge the Gym. How many badges do you have? Are you planning on participating in the elite competition this year?"

Shen Xiqing didn't expect to meet someone who was also preparing to challenge the gym.

Yan Zixin proudly took out the badge box from his bag. Every trainer who officially starts challenging gyms will get this box from the first gym they challenge.

Likewise, there will be slight differences in the boxes given out by each gym.

Like the one in Yan Zi's novice's hand, there are some cloud patterns on its edges and corners, which means that this box is distributed by the Flying Gym.

Inside the box there was a black velvet cushion, a flying badge in the shape of bird wings, a pink butterfly-shaped fairy badge, an evil badge in the shape of a houndstooth, and a water badge in the shape of a light blue wave.

"I am currently two badges short of being able to register for the competition."

Yan Zixin is 23 years old this year and has graduated for more than a year. Being able to obtain four badges is already at the top among ordinary people.

However, in the elite competition held every four years, his age is a bit of a disadvantage, as he only has this one chance to participate in the 25-year-old age limit.

It’s just that the age difference makes his strength neither too strong nor too weak.

After this year is over, he will be promoted to the 35-year-old age limit in the next term. If he wants to make a name for himself then, he will have to endure a long time.

But even so, he still wants to try once.

"When I was in school, I competed in college competitions. After graduation, I started to compete in various professional competitions."

Yan Zixin complained with a smile that the circle of trainers admires the strong. Trainers with good abilities don't have to worry about anything, and there are people who support them wherever they go.

Battle tower arenas, club competitions, official league events, private enterprise exhibition matches, as long as the trainers are strong, they will have a bright future to choose from.

When he gets too old to fight, the prize money from the competition will be enough to support himself and the elves for a lifetime of luxury.
