I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

Looking for the memories of the past, Bai Chen asked Kamizlei.

"(stare~~~)"

"? What, what? What does this look mean?"

Bai Chen, who was awkwardly stared at by Kamizlei, turned his gaze and said this.

But Kamizlei didn't seem to intend to stop there, but said with some resentment:

"Brother Baichen, you know the details... Where did you read it? Or who did you go to see? Lulina?"

"Where did I go to see it... I just happened to encounter such a performance during my travels. I went to see it because I was curious about the relationship between the model and the performer... It was too close Bar!"

While saying this, Bai Chen pushed back Kamizlei's head that was already close.

Speaking of which, since I haven't seen Kamizlei for so long, I always feel that she is a bit weird today, and I don't know if it is my illusion.

"Accidentally...that's fine...it's just a pity..."

"What a pity? What a pity?"

Bai Chen's eyes were full of doubts, until Kamizlei finally revealed the real purpose of her visit this time——

"Because I originally thought that I could invite Brother Bai Chen to watch this kind of performance for the first time. Who would have thought that you have already seen it~ Wouldn't it be fresh?"

"??? Wait, wait, wait! Why do you say this on the premise that I have promised to go with you... So this is the ultimate purpose of your coming here this time?!"

"It's really rude." Kamizlei seemed a little unhappy when Bai Chen said that. "Of course I came here this time to visit you after a long absence. This request is just incidental! And who would have thought that I would receive such a surprise this time..."

Kamizlei pursed her mouth, and her eyes drifted towards Ma Li intentionally or unintentionally, but Bai Chen could only smile awkwardly to cover up her guilt.

......

155 Departing from the city of fate

"Teacher Bai Chen..."

"Well, I know what you want to say...but I don't need to say anything, I understand..."

The next day, in the early morning, standing at the door of the casual coffee shop, Bai Chen reluctantly put up a closed sign on the coffee shop again.

Obviously, when he went to the commercial street with Ma Li yesterday, Bai Chen told the bosses there that he would definitely open the door today, but who knows... People are not as good as God... Who knows that in the coming days... On the opening day, Bai Chen got entangled in other things again?

While thinking this way, Bai Chen slowly shifted his eyes to Kamizlei...

"So they're all habitual offenders~ If that's the case, it's not a big deal to close the door for a few more days~"

Even though she felt Bai Chen's resentful eyes, Kamizlei waved her hands indifferently and said so.

"No way, after all, invitations from old friends are more important... I think they can all understand."

"Mr. Bai Chen, it would be better if you wrote down the reason for the temporary suspension when you said this sentence."

Although Bai Chen kept complaining like this, he didn't do what he said yesterday, and when he closed the door next time, he would definitely hang the reason for closing the door on the door of the coffee shop.

But this is also a matter of course. If it is an important commission, the request of the client cannot be disclosed, and in a situation like this...it is not even considered a commission. Speaking of which, Kamizlei's invitation this time is obviously more important. Tend to play, it is not a commission at all, if you really write this reason...

Bai Chen is confident that when he comes back next time, his name will be completely spread, and everyone who sees him will probably call him by this name.

"Actually, you don't need to be in such a hurry. After all, Yuanzhi City is not too far away from here. If you want to take the tram, you can get there in a day, right?"

"That won't work."

After Kamizlei expressed her thoughts, Bai Chen immediately denied it.

"No matter what you do, it's best to arrive early! If you always care about the distance you can get there on that day, there is a high probability that you will be late on the day! Unless you want to catch fish."

"Touching fish...It sounds like something you would do, Brother Bai Chen, and it sounds so real...Could it be that you have done something similar recently, Brother Bai Chen... "

"Ahem, these are not important!"

Bai Chen pretended to cough a few times to change the subject, originally he wanted to use his own experience to warn Kameizlei, but now it seems that if he continues to talk like this, the person who will be warned will be himself.

After noticing that both Kamizlei and Mali were looking at him, Bai Chen straightened his clothes, turned around and stopped paying attention to the situation in his coffee shop.

"If that's the case, let's go. There are many interesting places in Yuanzhi City. I can show you around by the way."

"Ah, it really changed the subject like this..."

There was a little helplessness in Kamizilei's expression, but she would not complain about Bai Chen's soaring emotions, but then put the same smile on her face as Bai Chen's. Behind Bai Chen, the three of them set off together towards the nearest tram stop leading to Yuanzhi City.

△

The city of Yuan is called the place of spiritual communication by the people of the Sinnoh area.

There are many parks distributed throughout the urban area of ​​Yuanzhi City, and these parks were established to provide a place for Pokémon trainers and their Pokmon to communicate and communicate, so the name of Yuanzhi City also came .

But here we need to be clear. Although the reputation of Yuanzhi City is also special because of these special parks, there is far more than this factor in people's hearts that makes Yuanzhi City really go to the deep area.

The gymnasium officially recognized by the alliance, a long-standing building, the organizer of the super gorgeous contest...

These factors that really make Yuanzhi City famous in the Sinnoh region are precisely created by the residents of Yuanzhi City from generation to generation.

......

At this time, in the communication square in the north of Yuanzhi City.

"It's a strange feeling...I've never experienced it before..."

The communication square and the many parks distributed in Yuanzhi City undertake similar functions, and they are all places for trainers and Pokémon to communicate, but the difference from the parks is that——

The area of ​​the communication square is smaller than the park, but in the communication square, you can see sitting opposite you anytime, anywhere, or the scene where the trainer next door communicates with their Pokmon. If the park is more inclined to If a private and quiet space is created, then the communication square will pay more attention to creating a public atmosphere. The scene when a trainer communicates with Pokémon is likely to become a template for other trainers, which feels a bit like this.

......

"If you feel strange, it means that the communication between you and Morubek is not deep enough, Mary, and the trainer and Pokémon can only go further if they have reached a unity of mind and thought."

"Even if you say so..."

Mary is sitting on the bench, and Morubeke is standing on her lap and looking at her, because there are other people around, so Mali always feels that she can communicate with Morubeike in such an atmosphere It will feel a little weird, and Morubeke seems to have the same idea as Mary with his bewildered expression, but in a sense, they seem to have the same idea. right?

"It seems that this task is still a bit difficult for you now..."

Seeing that Mali and Morubeke have been looking at each other for nearly 10 minutes, but they have no real communication with each other at all, Bai Chen can only sigh and give up his original plan.

But if he insists on this plan, he is indeed too hasty. It is true that reaching a spiritual agreement in a true sense cannot be achieved overnight, let alone Mary, even many heavenly kings find it difficult to achieve. at this point.However, this ability is also related to talent. Many trainers can reach a surprisingly tacit understanding with their own Pokémon even if their own strength is slightly insufficient. That's why Bai Chen started to have some expectations for Ma Li. Unfortunately, his The idea ultimately fell through.

......

156 Miss Melissa's Mania

"Clap~Clap~Clap~"

Just when Bai Chen simply gave up on letting Ma Li try to have a deeper level of communication with Morubeco, that is, spiritual communication, bursts of applause came from behind him, breaking the current quiet occasion.

"Mr. Bai Chen is right. The communication between the trainer and the Pokmon is very important, not only in the Pokémon battle, but also in the Pokémon Gorgeous Contest and other events~ "

Turning around and looking, the person who came was a stylishly dressed woman in a purple dress. The woman looked like a foreigner, and the accent was a little strange to the locals, but it was such a strange woman The women who are young are the most respected objects in Yuanzhi City.

"Miss Melissa, long time no see, I didn't expect you to come here in person."

After seeing the identity of the visitor, Bai Chen immediately stood up and greeted him, completely ignoring the sensational scene behind him.

"But if possible, I hope Miss Melissa, you can be more careful... It will be very troublesome if famous people randomly appear on the street..."

Bai Chen walked to Melissa's side and whispered to her.

"OK~OK~ Although Mr. Bai Chen, what you said is also reasonable, but these are actually not problems in Yuanzhi City. If you don't believe me, take a look~"

After Melissa said that, she took a step forward and greeted the people behind her. For some reason, the people who were still in the heat of the discussion all of a sudden when they saw Melissa greeted themselves. It was as silent as a cicada, and there was no sound at all.

"I have asked the residents of Yuanzhi City before, I hope they can treat me as an ordinary person after seeing me in the future, and don't create a chaotic scene, but now it seems that they understand me very well."

"It's really convenient..."

I don't know who it reminded of, Bai Chen held his forehead like this and sighed.

Melissa, the gymnasium owner of Yuanzhi City Gymnasium, is good at using ghost-type Pokémon. Because of her special and gorgeous fighting style, she is respected by many trainers who are currently pursuing new battles, and her unique The gorgeous and elegant fighting style also makes her occupy a place in the hearts of the coordination trainers. She has also served as the judge of the Super Gorgeous Contest many times, and she can be regarded as the idol of all residents of Yuanzhi City.

"Ah...Miss Melissa, you are running too fast... Wait for me anyway..."

While Bai Chen and Melissa were communicating, Kamizlei, who had asked Bai Chen and Ma Li to wait here for a while, finally appeared. At this time, she was holding two bags in her hand, each containing There are two paper boxes in both boxes, which are filled with steaming takoyaki.

"Ah...Sorry...Sorry, I was a little too excited. After all, I didn't expect Mr. Bai Chen to know you. He is a legend, but he disappeared after that battle. Thinking that he would appear in Yuanzhi City today."

Listening to Kamizlei's complaint, Melissa smiled shyly and apologized to her.

Originally, she was just a little curious when she heard that Kameezlei had brought acquaintances, but when Kameezelei was buying snacks in front of the takoyaki shop, Melissa picked up from Kameezelei's I heard that the acquaintance she brought is the former Pokémon master, Bai Chen.

Melissa and Bai Chen only met once, but that meeting left a deep impression on Melissa.

She has always loved and pursued new types of Pokémon battles, and in the process of chasing her dreams, she happened to fight with Bai Chen who was traveling, although the two sides agreed before the battle that it would be a 3v3 battle , but Melissa couldn't even see Bai Chen's second Pokémon, and what stood in front of her at that time was Bai Chen's absolute main force, the Monarch Snake.

In just one battle, the figure of the Monarch Snake was completely left in Melissa's mind. In the past, she thought that the only ones who could still maintain an elegant posture in battle were Menus and Shanai, who were extremely beautiful in themselves. A Pokémon like Duo can do it, but the beauty that Monarch Snake shows her is even more unique.

In the whole battle, Bai Chen's Monarch Snake didn't make any unnecessary movements, even a simple flick of its tail was full of power and beauty, and the look of contempt at everything was even more addictive, as if no one could defeat it , it was that calmness and elegance full of destructive power that made Melissa's fighting style undergo a huge change now.

But Mary, who was listening to Melissa inadvertently telling her impressions of Bai Chen, had other thoughts.

Even just from the previous conversation with Sirona, she knew that Bai Chen's identity might not be that simple, but what she heard from Melissa today about Bai Chen's evaluation——

a legendary person.

It gave Mary more room for imagination.

What kind of person can be called a legend by such an outstanding gymnasium owner?As the younger sister of Nie Zi, the owner of the Spike Gym, Ma Li often hears her brother's evaluation of others, whether it is Qibana who defeated him or the Galar champion Dandi who is currently known as a genius , Nie Zi's evaluation of them is just a very simple "powerful opponent". From her brother's mouth, the so-called "legendary" evaluation has never popped up to describe any trainer.

Of course, this may also have something to do with their personalities. Ms. Melissa looks more open, while Nie Zi looks lifeless. Of course, their personalities will affect their comments on others, but... ...

"By the way! Mr. Bai Chen, are you bringing the Monarch Snake with you today!? I want to have a revenge battle! My Wind Ball and Geng Gui are also looking forward to another battle with the Monarch Snake oh!"

"Ah... Let's forget about fighting... Isn't there more important things than fighting now? Are you ready for the exhibition match? Isn't it going to start the day after tomorrow?"

......

Looking at the blazing and fighting spirit in Melissa's eyes, it seems that he really regarded Bai Chen as an opponent who was almost impossible to win. Such an expression would really appear on the face of a gym master who is famous for his strength ?

Could it be that... Teacher Bai Chen's strength is really superior to that of the champion?

.....

157 Morning Conversation, Stage Showdown

The large-scale exhibition competition in Yuanzhi City is also a brand new type of activity that has only appeared in the past two years under the suggestion of Ms. Melissa. Of course, this activity is not original by Ms. Some of the activities I saw and participated in were borrowed and adapted.

But this time Miss Melissa chose the same format as the match that Bai Chen had watched when he was a spectator.

Stage duel.

In the stage duel, both sides of the battle will make disguises for themselves, and send out their own Pokémon to carry out the model catwalk with themselves. A trainer selects six Pokémon and changes six sets of costumes. After all the Pokémon and costumes have been displayed, the audience will vote to select the costume with the highest number of votes and the most popular Pokémon as the contestants' battle costumes and Pokmon for battle. One-on-one Pokémon battle sessions.

The rules are very simple and very interesting at the same time, but this form of stage battles is rare in various regions. After all, it is not so easy to find models who have six Pokmon and are good at fighting.

"Bang Bang~"

On the morning of the third day in Yuanzhi City, in a high-end hotel, Bai Chen and Ma Li were standing side by side outside a certain room, waiting for Kamizlei to come out, and the two seemed to have already waited. It's been a short time, but Kamizlei still hasn't made any movement. Seeing that the time is running out, Bai Chen can only knock on the door of Kamizlei's room and shout:

"Are you ready? If you don't hurry up, the time will be very fast. You won't fall asleep again!?"

"Really, the makeup work before going on stage is very important, don't worry."

"So Melissa has a makeup artist...why do you have to do it yourself in the room..."

"Because I prefer to solve work-related matters by myself, besides..."

"Besides?"

"...Forget it, it's nothing."

Bai Chen: "???"

Bai Chen, who was still a little confused at first, was completely choked by Kamizlei's words without any ending.

It's not a good habit to talk halfway, and it's a heinous thing to be so appetizing!

Bai Chen muttered this in his heart.

However, in such a short conversation, Bai Chen had more thoughts about himself——

"By the way... am I too worried about Kameizrei?"

Ever since leaving Raven City and embarking on a solo trip, Bai Chen has hardly met Kamizlei again, if anything, he secretly came back to meet Kamizlei in the first year away from home. It's just Mizlei. At other times, Bai Chen and Kamizlei basically communicate by email or phone, and there are many things that cannot be understood without meeting in person. Transform or...grow?

After meeting Kamizlei again after so many years, Bai Chen still habitually regards her as the fragile little girl who liked to cry.

Back then, Bai Chen and she both had their own dreams, but compared with Bai Chen, Kamizlei was more fragile back then. She was originally a crying character, but at the same time she had to shoulder more burdens. Expectations and responsibilities, she can't just run away from home like Bai Chen, and simply ignore all the consequences...
