I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

boom! !

When the Super Iron Tyrannosaurus was hit, it immediately grabbed a row of silver steel spikes on the shield of the city's dragon with both hands, and even as its body was pushed back, it held on tightly.

"What! They actually caught him?" Donggua exclaimed in disbelief.

The City Dragon shook its head, trying to break free from the Super Iron Tyrannosaurus's grasp, but it was no use. In terms of strength, even 10 City Dragons were no match for the Super Iron Tyrannosaurus.

"City Guardian Dragon, use the beam cannon!"

"Explosive punch!"

Donggua and Xiaomao issued the command at the same time.

Super Iron Tyrannosaurus swung its fist, which was covered with a layer of transparent fighting spirit.

Sensing a threat, the guardian dragon emitted a silver light from the gap in its mouth, preparing to fire a beam of light.

when! !

However, the Guardian Dragon was still too slow. The Super Iron Tyrannosaurus's fist slammed into the Guardian Dragon's face, and the violent shock dissipated the steel energy that had gathered in the Guardian Dragon's mouth. Immediately afterward, the Guardian Dragon became dazed and fell into confusion.

"Oh no, things are in chaos."

Donggua knew the additional effects of Explosive Punch; the Chaotic Guardian Dragon couldn't handle the Mega Tyrannosaurus, especially since the two Pokémon were so close together.

"Go around to the side of the guardian dragon and use Explosive Punch," Xiao Shigeru commanded.

The defense of the Guardian Dragon is indeed terrifying, especially its face shield, which is so hard that it can withstand several attacks from Elite Four level Pokémon with the strength of a Gym Leader, which shows how strong its defense is.

The Super Iron Tyrannosaurus circled around to the side of the Guardian Dragon and unleashed another Burst Punch.

Donggua also gave an order, but in the chaos, the guardian dragon just randomly spat out a cannon beam, and then it was hit by the Super Iron Tyrannosaurus's Burst Punch from the side, and was knocked to the ground.

Without the shield's protection, the city-guarding dragon couldn't withstand a single blow from a King-level Super Iron Tyrannosaurus Rex and was unable to recover.

"The Guardian Dragon is unable to battle." The gym assistant announced, "Gym Leader Donggua's three Pokémon have all been defeated. The winner of this gym battle is Xiaoshi."

The dojo intercepted the winner.

"You've defeated the Pokémon that I'm so proud of. I acknowledge your strength, so this mining badge is yours." Donggua generously handed the badge to Xiaoshi.

"Thank you."

After thanking him, Xiao Mao accepted the badge.

[Ding! Mission complete. Rewards have been sent to your inventory.]

After obtaining the Mining Badge, Gary didn't linger. He went outside the Gym, released Garchomp, and flew towards the easternmost part of the Sinnoh region on Garchomp.

on the sky.

Shigeru checked what items were the rewards for this gym mission.

[Premium Peat Block: When used on a Circle Bear with potential below Legendary level, its potential level increases by 1!]

"What? Another evolution item?"

Xiao Shi is having a headache; he doesn't want to catch too many Pokémon right now.

But this dog system always gives me evolution items.

When Ursaring uses a peat block, it can evolve into Ursaring. Ursaring has two forms: the Ursaring from the Greenland region and the Luna form.

Both can evolve using peat blocks, but Umbreon needs to evolve during a full moon to evolve.

Both forms of Ursaring have the same base stats, but their distribution is different. The regular Ursaring is a physical attacker, while the Spectral Ursaring is a special attacker.

The Moonbear has a unique ability called Mind's Eye, which has the same effect as Courage. In addition, it can ignore the opponent's reduced evasion rate. In reality, the Moonbear can see through all illusions and deceptions with Mind's Eye.

Furthermore, the Moonbear has a unique skill called Blood Moon, which has a power of 140 and no negative effects. It just can't be used twice in a row, but it's still pretty good.

However, if Shigeru had to choose, he would definitely choose the regular Creepy Bear.

This is because the ordinary Moon Bear has three characteristics.

However, Ursaring only has the Mind's Eye ability. It would be a huge loss to give up the regular Ursaring with three abilities in order to get the exclusive ability and exclusive 300-point move.

"Let's subdue it another time."

Gary didn't really want to catch Umbreon, mainly because Umbreon wasn't cool enough and didn't fit Gary's style.

"System, exchange the permanent Steel-type skill learner for Iron Hoof Ray for me."

There aren't many Steel-type moves, and only a few have learnable moves. Iron Hoof Beam is the strongest Steel-type Special Attack move that can be learned.

[Ding! Skill exchange successful.]

...!

Two hours later, Garchomp arrived in Coastal City.

Binhai City is a famous port city in the Sinnoh region and is also a necessary stop on the way to the Lily of the Valley Conference.

The entire city is powered by solar energy, and the person who built all of this is the head of the Binhai Dojo, Denji.

This is why Denji has been slacking off for so long; the prosecutors in Binhai City didn't dare to do anything to him and could only hand him over to the Four Heavenly Kings, who had higher authority.

Denji is a trainer whose strength is comparable to that of the Elite Four, and he is also a highly skilled individual. If he were to act recklessly, no one would dare to discipline him.

"Garuda, come in and rest."

After landing at the entrance of the Pokémon Center, Gary recalled his Garchomp and rode his Lizard straight to the Seaside Gym.

556: Snow Peak Dojo

We arrived at the entrance of the Binhai Dojo.

Xiao Mao walked to the door and pressed the doorbell.

Suddenly, a mechanical female voice came from the loudspeaker at the gate.

"Hello, may I ask what brings you to the Binhai Dojo?"

The Binhai Dojo was completely renovated by Denji himself, and everything is mechanized. The dojo assistants are also all done by artificial intelligence. In terms of artificial intelligence systems, Denji is definitely one of the world's top talents.

"Hello, I'm here to challenge the Seaside Dojo," said Shigeru.

"Please come this way."

Next to the entrance was a machine that looked like a freezer. The door of the machine opened automatically, and inside were a large number of lighthouse badges.

Although Xiao Mao had known this would happen, he couldn't help but feel that Denji was somewhat irresponsible when it actually happened.

Although you can't participate in the Lily of the Valley Conference with just one badge, the Seaside Gym is known as the strongest gym in the Sinnoh region. Now they're just giving away badges without even having to fight. How is this any different from Misty's three older sisters?

"What do you mean? Are you just giving me a badge?" Xiao Shi asked.

"To all those who have come to challenge me, there is no need for battle now; I will simply present you with badges."

Shigeru didn't say much; as long as he got the badge, that was enough.

Xiao Mao reached in, took out a badge, and waited silently for a few seconds, but no sound came to his mind.

"System, I've already obtained the Coastal Badge. Shouldn't you issue a mission now?" Xiao Mao thought to himself.

[Ding! The quest cannot be triggered unless the badge was obtained through a gym battle.]

"What!!"

Shigeru thought that as long as he could get the badge, he could get the mission reward, but he didn't expect that he would have to participate in a gym battle.

"It seems we can only wait until Denji comes to his senses before we can challenge him again."

Xiao Mao tossed the badge back into the cabinet and turned to leave.

Xiao Mao didn't have time to try and win Dian Ci back.

Denji is almost 30 years old, he's not a child anymore, let Satoshi save Denji instead.

...!

Early the next morning.

Gary rode Garchomp to the northernmost part of the Sinnoh region. When he found the weather getting colder, he switched to Articuno and finally arrived at Snowpeak City after 3 hours.

Xiao Mao wasn't in a hurry to go to Xuefeng Dojo.

Having experienced the challenge of the Waterline Gym, Shigeru specifically asked the local Nurse Joy and learned that Xiaosong, the head of the Snow Peak Gym, is a teacher who teaches at a school from Monday to Friday and rests on Saturdays and Sundays.

To challenge the Snow Peak Dojo, you need to make a reservation at the dojo in advance, and the dojo master will arrange a time for the battle.

"Wow, there are so many rules."

This is the first time that Shigeru has encountered a gym that requires reservations even after challenging so many gyms.

Do you think you're some kind of pioneer? You need to plan ahead before taking on any challenge.

resignedly.

After lunch, in the afternoon, Xiao Mao rode his motorcycle lizard to the Snow Peak Gym to book a gym match.

Although the weather is cold in Xuefeng City, you can still ride a motorcycle lizard, just at a slower speed. The speed of a motorcycle lizard is related to its body temperature; if its body temperature is high, it can run even in icy and snowy conditions.

Upon arriving at the entrance of Xuefeng Dojo, Xiao Mao pushed open the door and entered. The lobby was still quite warm.

"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?" A woman was waiting at the counter and asked as she saw Xiao Mao come in.

Because the Snow Peak Dojo requires reservations for battles, there are always people in the lobby to greet you.

Xiao Mao walked to the counter and said, "I'm here to challenge the gym. I heard that you need to make a reservation to challenge the Snow Peak Gym, so I came here specifically to make a reservation."

"Can you show me your proof?" the dojo assistant asked.

Shigeru took out his encyclopedia, which contained his personal information.

"People from the Kanto region, so when you challenge the gym, are you planning to use Pokémon from the Kanto region?" the woman asked curiously.

Xiao Mao didn't understand why the woman asked that question; it was clearly an attempt to find out his background.

"I don't plan to," Xiao Mao said.

"That's a real shame," the woman said to herself, then added, "I understand. The dojo match is scheduled for 9 a.m. tomorrow. Is that alright?"

"no problem."

Xiao Mao nodded, saying that 9 a.m. wasn't too late.
