"Yes, I am the leader of this gym, Uncle Liu."
Because of his age, Uncle Liu's eyebrows and hair have turned gray, but his body is still very strong and he doesn't walk as shaky as other old people. Especially his eyes, which still look sharp and sharp. god!
But the strange thing is that in such a cool place, he was only wearing a T-shirt and shorts, and even a pair of open-toed slippers, as if he was on vacation on a tropical island!
I have to say that he is worthy of being an ice gym leader. He keeps getting stronger with age and is really resistant to freezing!
only…
After noticing that Uncle Liu's tone was a little harsh, Xia You looked back at the courtyard door, and then said a little apologetically: "Ah, I'm sorry, because I saw that the courtyard door was open, so I didn't say hello and just came in without permission! "
】
Uncle Liu's eyes swept over the two of them and stayed on Xia You for a long time.
Fortunately, he didn't seem to care much about this matter.
"Come with me."
After saying that, he turned around and left, heading towards the gym again.
Seeing his cold attitude, Xia You couldn't help but look at Na Zi and shrugged.
It can be seen that Liu Bo doesn't seem to talk much and has a slightly weird temper. However, Xia You is just here to challenge the gym. As long as you can fight with him, no matter how cold he is, it has nothing to do with him.
However, Xia You remembered that the reason Liu Bo became like this was because when he was young, he was burned in a battle and became bedridden, but his long-haired pig suddenly left him at that time. , and never returned. Uncle Liu thought that the long-haired pig had abandoned him and lost trust in Pokémon, so he became such a harsh person now.
Of course, there are naturally some misunderstandings here, but Xia You doesn't bother to pay attention to it. After all, this kind of thing should be left to the nosy Xiaozhi to deal with from now on!
Following Uncle Liu, Xia You first felt the temperature here after entering the gym, which was obviously colder than outside!
Good guy, it must be more than ten degrees below zero, right?
He tightened his clothes and looked inside the gym. At a glance, he saw a huge ice field in the center of the gym!
There are many large and small icicles scattered on the field. At this time, it is like a huge ice cube, constantly emitting cold air, causing the indoor temperature to plummet, as if you are in a refrigerator!
Under the ice field, there is a deep pool, but it has already been frozen solid. As long as the ice is not deliberately damaged, there is no need to worry about the ice even if large Pokémon such as Gyarados or Steel Snake are fighting on it. Will suddenly break!
Xia You's breath turned into a white mist in the air and quickly dissipated.
Looking to the left and right, I saw that except for the battlefield, the layout of the gym was very simple. There were only a few rows of seats in the auditorium, which were relatively decent furnishings. But other than that, there was nothing else. Extremely empty.
At Liu Bo's signal, Xia You walked to the trainer command area on the other side.
"Because you came too early, Sima... who is the referee of the gym, there is no way to arrive at the gym so early, so this match will not be chaired by a referee, but I will be the referee. Do you have any objection?"
"No."
Xia You shook his head. It didn't matter to him whether there was a referee or not. They could naturally judge for themselves whether they won or lost.
The referee is just a 'tool' to make the game look more formal and fair.
Liu Bo followed the usual practice and explained the rules of the competition to Xia You: "There are three gym battles in the Kaji Gym. As long as you defeat all three of my Pokémon, you will be considered successful in the challenge!"
It didn't sound any different from other gyms, but Xia You still pondered for a moment.
You must know that most ice-type Pokémon are related to water. In terms of attributes, ice plus water has a certain restraint relationship with several of Xiayou's Pokémon, whether it is Flying Mantis, Crystal Steel Snake, Ha Kroon, Charizard, and even Young Kilas are all at a disadvantage when facing ice and water.
Gyarados was not affected at all, but that guy was so strong that Xia You didn't even have the slightest idea of using it.
The same goes for Geng Gui. In a normal battle, Xia You won't let it play at all.
If playing other gyms, Xia You originally wanted to train Hackron and the newly conquered Young Kilas, but now it seems that there are only two Pokémon left: Gardevoir and Lei Yinbu. ah……
Seeing Uncle Liu about to take out the Pokémon, Xia You quickly stopped him and told him that he wanted to fight the ace Pokémon.
"Young man, I saw you right. You are indeed very confident. You actually dare to challenge my ace Pokémon directly with your mouth!"
Xia You was stunned. Hearing what Uncle Liu said, it was obvious that he had a certain understanding of him.
"Huh? You know me?"
Uncle Liu nodded first, then shook his head.
"I just watched a few of your battles on TV, but I'm an old acquaintance with that guy Xia Bo. I once heard him talk about you, and I have some impression of you, and I can tell from his tone. You can feel it, he seems to agree with you!"
I see!
No wonder he looked at me a few more times just outside the door!
It's just that Liu Bo and Xia Bo, one has a cold personality and is good at using ice-type Pokémon, while the other is hot-blooded, excited, likes to joke, and is good at fire-type Pokémon. These two old people with very different personalities are naturally different. It's really surprising that they can become friends even though they are like fire and water!
Seeing Xia You's look of surprise, Liu Bo said again: "Your strength is different from that of ordinary challengers. Since you have requested it, I will make an exception and use my strongest lineup to fight you!"
Liu Bo put the elf ball he just took out back into his pocket, groped inside again, and took out another elf ball.
Originally, Xia You thought that for the sake of fairness, he would let both sides send out Pokémon at the same time, just like when he challenged the Platycodon Gym and Yanmo Gym, but before Liu Bo could speak, he had already thrown the Poké Ball.
It seems that this old man also has his own pride!
Being asked to directly challenge the ace Pokémon was a break from the norm, and it was already his bottom line. He would never make any exceptions and change his rules again!
Okay, let’s fight like this!
After withdrawing her thoughts, Xia You looked at the field and saw clearly that what Uncle Liu had sent was a white sea lion!
White sea lion is a relatively common Pokémon. Xia You has dealt with it many times, so it is not unfamiliar, but since Liu Bo can take it out, it must be very powerful.
After thinking for a while, Xia You threw the elf ball.
Now that Uncle Liu is serious, he cannot afford to lose. He must get off to a good start!
"Come on, Lei Yinbu! This game is left to you!"
