Pokémon: Thunder Shatters the Darkness

Chapter 463: The Problematic Electric Flying Squirrel

What is a succession battle?

It is a selection system that has been eliminated by modern alliances.

Since seventy years ago, all gym leaders in Shenzhou have been appointed by the alliance after inspection.

Nearly half of them are disciples trained by the dojo itself.

Like Tao Tan, he won the championship of the White Jade Group's Super Power Department through the national peak competition.

Thus, it was an extremely rare precedent in the alliance for someone to soar to the top and directly become a gym leader with white jade-level strength.

The battle of succession is similar to Tao Tan's situation, but if you think about it carefully, it is not the same thing.

It is a game in which the gym independently selects a "defender", and this person will then take on challenges from five trainers of the same level from outside.

If the person successfully defends the ring, he will become the new owner of the gym.

If the defending champion fails, the successful challenger will become the new owner.

This mode seems normal, but in fact it is completely out of control, so all kinds of problems can easily arise.

and so……

Is this a gimmick?

For example, a gimmick of letting the new gym owner who has been designated internally defeat the challenger to increase his popularity?

But does the maglev gym need to do this?

As a top gym with a good reputation and strong strength, what is the significance of doing this?

Yang Xiao felt incredible.

Thinking of the voting he had mentioned in his text message, the boy's eyes narrowed slightly.

It seems to be true.

But can the alliance really agree to such a thing?

...

"The alliance has agreed."

in the screen.

The gentle young man smiled at the well-behaved figures in front of him and said:

"But you can only accept three challenges at most, so let Qianji appear in the next battle."

Hear the words.

Several middle-aged people in the office looked at each other.

One of them took a half step forward and complimented with a smile: "Director Wen has the means."

"Methods? What means do I have?"

The young man laughed and said casually:

"This kind of special situation is rare. I was just lucky. I happened to meet someone... hehe."

"understand."

The middle-aged man laughed:

"Don't worry, Qianji will definitely achieve the final victory!"

"Although Lin Xinyi is the daughter of the previous gym leader, a student of the Maglev gym, and has a brilliant-level Pokémon, there is something wrong with that electric squirrel..."

"Based on our observations, we do not rule out the possibility that psychological issues may be the cause."

next to.

Someone immediately took over the middle-aged man's words.

He ignored the stiff face of the latter and quickly showed it to the young man on the screen with a smile:

"Haven't we already found someone to fight Lin Yi twice before? We've confirmed that her electric flying squirrel must have had some problems after it came out of [Royal Thunder Sen]!"

"The strength of its electrical properties has dropped significantly."

"Oh?"

The young man raised his eyebrows and looked at the speaker with interest.

This made the latter's smile even brighter:

"It seems to have been contaminated by something extraordinary, causing its energy to decrease again every time it releases an electric move..."

"And Qianji, as the best among your scavengers, will definitely win the final victory."

"Where are these words?"

The young man shook his head and chuckled:

"Qianji has changed his job a long time ago. What does it have to do with me? Isn't he signed under the name of your group?"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The man quickly said, "He has changed his job and is no longer a street sweeper."

"Ah."

After chatting for a while, the young man stretched his body and said leisurely: "Another museum owner died in the secret realm. It is God's will that things are like this now."

"If not for this, I would not be able to intervene in the gym. This is a rare opportunity, so you must take care of yourself."

"Yes, yes, it will succeed."

"That's it."

Hang up communication.

The young man touched his neck, raised his head and yawned: "Big ghost, do you think Qianji can win?"

Putting down his palm, the young man suddenly smiled:

"Ever since what happened at the underground research institute, it's become hard for me to trust my lackeys."

next to.

The sturdy man lowered his eyes slightly and said respectfully: "Master, there is no need to worry."

"He is the first good seedling I brought up, and he has a good understanding of the electrical system."

"As long as what these guys say is correct, that mentally damaged Brilliant-level Pokémon will never hinder your plan."

"is it?"

The young man smiled slightly.

But the topic quickly changed, and the content was even more horrifying: "If he fails in the end, will you die?"

The sturdy man fell silent.

Count your breaths.

"Master, but then again..."

"Okay, just kidding."

The young man waved his hand with a smile and turned to walk towards the door:

"By the way, the lackeys I mentioned do not include you at the moment."

Clang.

The door closed, but the strong man never moved.

Count your breaths.

A faint sigh passed away in an instant.

...

The taxi stopped in front of the building and the boy opened the door and got out.

No matter who gets the Maglev Gymnasium, it has nothing to do with him.

So after a brief thought, he decided to put the matter behind him and go to the hotel arranged for him by Yunen Group.

A hotel he had stayed at elsewhere.

"Welcome to the Happy Egg Hotel chain."

The doorbell rings.

The lady at the bar stood up and said with a friendly smile: "Excuse me, do you have..."

"We have an appointment."

The boy walked forward slowly and showed her the room reservation text message.

"oh oh!"

Looking at the number displayed above, the young lady's eyes widened suddenly.

This attracted the attention of the other Jigglypuffs nearby who all looked over curiously.

As a staff member, she knows clearly to whom the ID number sent when the order is finalized belongs.

Feeling the other party's increasingly excited gaze, the boy said calmly: "Please book a room for me as soon as possible."

"Yes Yes."

The young lady nodded hastily, her fingertips flashing rapidly on the keyboard.

After a moment, a door card was handed over.

"Turn left at the end of the third floor."

"Thank you."

The boy tried to take the door card.

But I tried a little harder, but it didn't move.

"May I ask you a question?"

The young lady blinked and looked at the boy.

The boy also looked at her silently, then pulled again.

"You tell me."

"Are you here to get your Maglev Gym badge?"

The young lady's cheeks were slightly rosy: "If so, can you tell me which day it is?"

“No.”

"I want to book the tickets with my boyfriend. He likes you so much!"

"I'm sorry, I don't love, I just talk and laugh about love and hatred, how lonely it is."

The young man looked at the slightly puzzled young lady opposite him sincerely and said:

"This is the lyrics of a classic song from The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Let me tell you."

The young lady nodded hesitantly: "Thank...thank you, who should I shoot? Pidgeot?"

"Yeah, just shoot it, don't worry about it, you can't control the depth of the water."

Yang Xiao took a deep breath and smiled: "Ahem, if nothing unexpected happens, I should go to the gym in two days."

The alert boy decisively changed his previous words:

"But I will be attending the Succession Battle. Besides, I guess there is no way to get the badge in advance now, right?"

"Ah? Didn't Sister Lin win?"

The young lady suddenly sighed helplessly: "We have arranged for people to fight twice, why is there a third time?"

Has it been called twice?

Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.

Brilliant-level battles are extremely complicated, mutual defeats are almost non-existent, and how many Brilliant-level trainers are there in the country who specialize in electricity-type combat?

If Lin Xinyi can win two matches of the same level, it at least means that she is qualified to be a gym owner.

Plus, she's a disciple of the gym, so normally everyone would just go with the flow.

After all, apart from the nice title of gym leader, there are a lot of things to deal with, which is far less comfortable than the freedom that top trainers value.

unless……

Yang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Isn't she a brilliant-level trainer?"

"Sister Lin? No, even though she has a very powerful flying squirrel, she is still a white jade-level trainer because she used to be a coordinator."

Coordinator?

Yang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Besides, that electric flying squirrel..."

The young lady's words were a little subtle, but Yang Xiao heard it.

Even an outsider who is not a trainer can see that there is something wrong with that electric mouse?

That's really problematic.

otherwise.

Even if a Brilliant-level Pokémon can't defeat an entire Jade-level team, at least three or more can do it, right?

But even so, there are still challenges coming...

This can only mean one thing.

The woman named Lin Xinyi, besides Electric Flying Squirrel.

Other Pokémon may not be able to make other psychic players of the same level kneel down and sing songs of love like Tao Tan did back then.

The boy thought for a moment and suddenly reached out his hand.

"Give me the room card."

"Oh, okay... Miss Rabbit, I'll ask you to take the guests upstairs!"

"auspicious!"
