Pokémon: Start with an Admiral Crab!

"I want to become the most beautiful girl in the world and the strongest water-attribute Pokémon trainer!"

"As both of us are water-type Pokémon, my Starfish will never lose to you!"

Xiaoxia makes a motivational speech before the battle.

"You are very motivated, so I will let you attack first."

Wang Yao folded his hands in front of his chest and took the initiative to give up the initiative.

"Go ahead! Sea Star - use High Speed ​​Star!"

Xiaoxia raised her hand and pointed, using her best ranged skills to consume the opponent.

"Cha~"

Star Sea made the cry of a giant of light.

At the same time, a string of shining white stars was emitted from the red gem at the core of the body and hit the giant crab.

"Block it with bubble rays!"

The giant crab opened its mouth and spit out a stream of bubble jets, instantly submerging the high-speed star.

Then a large number of bubbles gathered together and attacked the starfish on the opposite side of the field.

"Jump into the water and get out of the way!"

Xiaoxia reacted quickly. After realizing she had lost the battle, she immediately ordered Hai Xingxing to jump into the water to avoid the attack.

But once Hai Xingxing dodged, she would be the one in trouble!

The bubble ball hit Xiaoxia directly, but fortunately this move was not very powerful and only soaked her like a drowned chicken.

“Pfft… Why is this happening?!”

Xiaoxia blew away her wet bangs and shook off the water on her head dejectedly.

"Next, use high-speed rotation!"

To boost morale, Xiaoxia plans to use Starfish's agility in the water to defeat the opponent's clumsy crab which only has brute force.

"just!"

The starfish flew out of the water, spinning and hitting the giant crab like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Keng——!

The soft tentacles hit the solid crab shell...making a very crisp collision sound.

Starfish immediately stopped spinning, jumped onto the platform with one foot, bent down in pain, and used the other two tentacles that served as arms to cover the tentacle that served as its right foot.

"just……"

"Haixingxing! Are you okay?"

Xiaoxia didn't expect that the opponent's crab shell had this function... It could actually rely on defense to attack!

"Jump over and grab it!"

Wang Yao commanded the giant crab to jump over a water surface more than ten meters wide and arrive at the same floating platform.

“What——there is such a thing!?”

Xiaoxia looked in shock as the clumsy-looking giant crab suddenly appeared in front of Hai Xingxing.

In fact, the giant crab is not slow, and the jumping ability of its claws is also amazing. It's just that it is usually used to close combat with its big claws, so people ignore its speed and explosive power.

"Gurg!"

The giant crab picked up the starfish with one claw, but before it could use any force, the core of the other party began to flash red.

Didi! Didi!

Starfish's energy is exhausted!

"That's enough! Let it go."

Wang Yao decided to stop at that point and let the giant crab let go of Starfish.

"I lost……"

"Come back, Starfish."

Xiaoxia took back the Sea Star in frustration.

"Xiaoxia - look at yourself, you're soaked!"

Sakura brought out a dry towel at some point, and before Xiaoxia could react, she wrapped it around her head and started rubbing it.

“Uh, uh—!”

"Hoo! Sakura-nee! Be gentle!"

Xiaoxia struggled to break free from her elder sister's clutches, gasping for breath.

"You messed up my hair!"

After pulling off the towel on her head, Xiaoxia's face bulged like a needle fish.

"Xiaoxia, you are still a child, don't worry too much about your image - wait until you grow up to Mudan's age, then learn how to dress up~"

Sakura touched Xiaoxia's head unceremoniously and deliberately made her hair more messy.

"You sisters have such a good relationship~"

Wang Yao took back the giant crab and walked over from the fighting position.

“——That’s not good!”

Xiaoxia immediately turned her head and denied it.

"Wu——Xia, you actually said that. It really makes me sad..."

Sister Sakura immediately pretended to cover her face and cry.

"...No, it's your fault for always treating me like a child!"

Xiaoxia's attitude immediately softened a little.

"Hahaha - you are indeed a child. It's so easy to guess what you are thinking, Xiaoxia!"

Sakura put down her hands that were covering her face and reached out to rub Xiaoxia's face, as if she was playing with a rag doll.

"Damn it - I'm never going to talk to you again!!!"

Xiaoxia angrily pushed away Sakura's devastating claws, took two steps back, and shouted with her teeth bared.

"Hahahaha!"

Why does Wang Yao feel that Xiaoxia is even more childish than Xiaozhi at this moment?

Obviously, when they travel together in the animation, Xiaozhi always looks more immature.

"dare you laugh!"

Xiaoxia is so angry that her lungs are about to explode!

Forget about Sister Sakura, but how could a stranger come to laugh at me!

"Sorry, sorry... I can't help it! Xiaoxia, right - you seem to want to revive the Cerulean Gym?"

Wang Yao raised one hand to apologize slightly, then asked.

"Of course - when I become the gym leader, I will make the Cerulean Gym the most powerful water-attribute gym in Kanto!"

"I don't want it to be like this... We spend every day preparing for the water ballet performance! All the trainers who come to challenge us look down on our gym!"

Xiaoxia, who just turned nine years old, is very dissatisfied with her three older sisters' behavior of abandoning the gym.

"Actually, I think the Cerulean Gym is pretty good now. Your sisters are running it very well!"

Wang Yao expressed his opinion.

Today, the Cerulean Gym is not only a venue for tourists to watch underwater ballet performances, but also a Pokémon aquarium.

Especially under the management of the three sisters, there is an endless stream of tourists and fans coming here.

However, because most of the Pokémon in the gym are used for performances, the three sisters' work focus is on performance rather than training and combat, the strength of the Pokémon in the gym is relatively average.

But... although it is lacking in gym battles, the management of the Cerulean Gym itself is actually very good.

Not only did the performances at the dojo itself attract a large number of people, but they also boosted the city's tourism economy.

"What's good about it!"

Xiaoxia was about to refute.

"Listen to me - since your sisters are not interested in continuing the gym challenge..."

"Now this Hualan Gym can simply be transformed into the Hualan Water Performance Hall. If you want to build a powerful Hualan Gym, why don't you build a new Hualan Gym yourself!?"

Wang Yao suggested.

"Anyway, with the popularity of you three Hualan sisters, it should be easy to just make money and build another gym, right?"

"——It's the four sisters! And me! Xiaoxia!"

Xiaoxia interrupted.

"Ahhhh~Xiaxia, you're still early!"

But she was forcibly suppressed by her elder sister Sakura.
