The thick smoke did not dissipate, and the entire arena suddenly became quiet.
The onlookers, even Xiaoguang and Ah Li, held their breath and stared at the foggy field in front of them, waiting for the final result of the game.
"Leo!!"
In the end, it was Xiaozhi's Riolu who got anxious first, jumped to the edge of the center of the arena, and launched a flat palm towards the center.
Whoosh...!
The wind pressure aroused by the palm instantly blew away the explosion smoke in the center of the arena.
Vacuum wave!
As the smoke completely dissipated, it was seen that neither Prince Bo nor Lucario continued to stand upright on the field.
Instead, he leaned forward and fell to the floor.
His eyes were spinning, and it was obvious that he had entered a state where he could not fight.
"Prince Bo!"
"Lucario!!"
The two trainers quickly ran up and carefully checked the status of their Pokémon.
Xiaoguang gently lifted Prince Bo's head and leaned it on her lap... After the evolution of Prince Bo, she could no longer hold him completely.
"You did it perfectly, Prince Bo."
After rubbing the latter's head, Xiaoguang said softly.
"Bogu..."
Prince Bo opened his eyes, struggled slightly to get up, and looked at the fallen Lucario on the other side.
At least it's not like I was defeated at the hands of this Lucario...
After seeing clearly, Prince Bo relaxed his breath and completely fell on Xiaoguang's soft thighs.
Well, although I won’t be able to be held in soft arms in the future, it seems to be very comfortable here...
"Both sides of this game lost their ability to fight at the same time, so it ended in a draw!"
The martial artist uncle finally announced his verdict loudly, bringing the battle to an end.
...
afterwards.
"Xiaoguang, I'll give this to you."
Ah Li handed Xiaoguang a brown badge. There were irregularly sized dots scattered on the badge, like a stone path.
Paving Stone Badge, this is the badge held by the Veil Gym.
"Hey... isn't this our informal battle? And I didn't defeat you."
Xiaoguang hesitated, not sure whether to take it.
"I'm the gym leader. If I think you're qualified, then you're qualified!"
Ah Li, however, waved his hand indifferently and put the paving stone badge into Xiaoguang's hand.
Judging from the aura of this expression and the tone of self-proclaimed gym leader, it is obvious that although he did not completely win today, it also allowed Ah Li to completely regain his confidence in becoming a gym leader.
Seeing Xiaoguang staring blankly at the badge, Ah Li continued to comfort him:
"It doesn't matter. As long as you don't let the annoying Pokémon Inspector know where he came from, no one else will care about this kind of thing~!"
Next to him, Xiaozhi, who was about to come over to congratulate him, was stunned for a moment.
Then he looked at Ah Li.
This girl seems to have not only come out of Lost Jade... she even seems to have become arrogant and bold?
"Uh...Ash."
This made Xiaoguang, who knew the details, also turn his head and look at Xiaozhi with a look of eagerness.
She has no obsession with "I must defeat you before I can accept the badge." Since she got it from the museum owner, she naturally wants to accept it.
So, can she really accept this badge? "Take it, Xiaoguang."
Xiaozhi did not reveal his identity openly, and obtaining the badge was not linked to "defeating the gym leader".
The badge simply represents the challenger and has been approved by the Gym Leader.
For example, many experienced gym leaders cannot be dealt with by ordinary trainers... But as long as they meet the expectations of the former, they can naturally obtain badges.
This is how Li described the "Pokémon Inspector", which was somewhat rude.
Thinking of this, Xiaozhi walked decisively to Ah Li and said in a deep voice:
"Miss Ah Li, then I will challenge the gym tomorrow!"
Originally, he was still thinking about the inspection challenge at the Curtain Gym, so he just skipped it.
After all, Ah Li is just a new gym leader, and Xiaoguang has already fully seen his fighting skills in this battle.
Although he is not as strong and tactical as the veteran gym leaders, he is not weak...at least he is more than enough to be a gym leader.
"It seems like that guy Shinji really took advantage of this."
Xiaozhi secretly thought that with the power of the duck-billed fire dragon, defeating this Lucario in three rounds was basically equivalent to Li having no command and beating the opponent in vain.
And at this moment, Ah Li has come out of his psychological shadow, and may become stronger in the future, and the future is promising.
But now it seems like it's a bit too much... It would be a good thing to tone it down a little bit. "Ah?! Do you want to challenge the gym too?!"
But after hearing these words, Ah Li's expression fell instantly.
Yesterday, she was in the breeding house and saw the promotional video for the battle against the development zone.
Mr. Kamishiro, who brutally tortured Mr. Raiji, was defeated by Xiaozhi... This guy is definitely worse than Shinji.
"Damn it, they said there will be Pokémon inspectors soon to check whether the gym leaders are negligent in their duties... I think these boring inspectors should first screen the challengers carefully and not allow them to be too powerful. The trainer comes to fry the fish!"
This made Ah Li couldn't help but clenched his fists and exclaimed loudly.
She knew that an inspector would come to inspect the gym's qualifications recently, but she obviously didn't know that the inspector was right in front of her at this moment.
This actually made a few people look at each other, looking weird, and somewhat unable to help but laugh.
However, Xiaozhi, as a trainer who has traveled to many regions, feels the same way.
Challenge the Gym, participate in the Alliance Conference, challenge the Four Heavenly Kings and Champions...
The official trainer path consists of these three stages in total, but it is obviously not suitable for today's various trainers with varying levels of skills.
Especially for him or an old trainer like Shinji, ordinary gym challenges are actually of little significance.
So now Xiaozhi doesn't even continue to challenge the gym like he did before.
"It makes sense... It seems that after completing this trip, we can respond to this issue together."
Thinking of this, Xiaozhi touched his chin.
As for the way out of the official alliance, that is not up to him.
But Ah Li’s battle...
"Then let's have a 1v1 tomorrow, my Riolu versus your Lucario!"
So Xiaozhi said bluntly.
The current gym mechanism is undoubtedly the most stressful for new gym owners like Ah Li...
I think she is also a victim of the mechanism, so let's forgive her behavior of bombarding the inspector.
As for the Pokémon that Shinji instantly killed, Xiaozhi lost interest, but he still had the idea of fighting the opponent's ace Lucario.
