Elf: No, it's because he was made the gym leader!

?

Lu Yuan rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things. This wasn't a master group chat. When did you, Sakura, become a master?

Are synchronized ballet masters also masters?

[Green: As an excellent breeder, culinary skills are, of course, indispensable. (Fist-shaped sea cucumber giving a thumbs up.jpg)]

Qinglv had already learned from Xiaomao and Dr. Kumo about Lu Yuan's expertise in cultivation.

Including research, battles, archaeology... if Lu Yuan really is the grandfather's grandson, he would still approve of this older brother.

(ps: Here, Qinglv is 17 and Luyuan is 18.)

[Ah Jin: @Lu Yuan, don't forget you're coming to Chengdu tomorrow. I've prepared a surprise for you. (Pokeby smirking.jpg)]

Oh right, tomorrow is the day I made an appointment with Professor Elm to go to Johto to get the egg.

I've spent the last three days with Xiao Liuwei, I almost forgot.

Lu Yuan quickly switched apps and bought tickets for the earliest flight tomorrow.

Okay, I'll order one for Xiao Lan too.

She's just slacking off at the dojo anyway, so coming over here will help me carry my luggage.

"Ah!"

In the security room, Xiao Lan, who was on night duty, felt a chill run down her spine.

Who is thinking of me?

After buying the two plane tickets, Lu Yuan switched back to the group chat.

I've noticed that everyone is talking about a new topic.

[Kona: I heard our "Dragon Rider" fought "Dragon Storm" Kibana today. So, which was stronger, his dragon or your bird? (Jynx's disdain.jpg)]

Dragon Storm, Kibana...

Lu Yuan remembered that he was the Dragon-type Gym Leader of Hammerlocke City in the Galar region, and he often posted updates, consistently ranking first in popularity on Bilibili.

Although he is a gym leader, he would be at least a champion in any other region.

He's supposedly on par with Dan, but his record is consistently 0/10.

[Lance: Of course my dragon is stronger. (Dragonite Destruction Ray warning.jpg)]

Lu Yuan: Hehe.

After all, their team really does have dragons, and they make up the vast majority of them. You probably won by shouting "Dragon Pulse! Meteor Shower! Outrage!" at a bunch of flying-type Pokémon, right?

I wonder what Cibana was feeling at that moment.

[Yu Longdu: Although he won, the tactics he used today were quite novel.]

【Crimson: Tactics? What tactics!】

Sure enough, Crimson arrived as soon as it heard the tactic and sensed its approach.

According to A-du's brief account, the scene at the time was basically like this.

Qibana started with Coal Tortoise and Blaze Tortoise, while Adu started with Gyarados and Aerodactyl.

A-Du assumed the other player was playing the Sunny Day team and wanted a head-on confrontation, so he decided to play along.

Later, Qibana switched to Desert Dragonfly to start a sandstorm, and Coal Turtle to Invisible Rock and Yawn.

The Charizard that A-Du brought in was severely damaged...

In the end, Lance won the victory with 16 Hyper Beams from Dragonite.

16 Destruction Rays!

No wonder Kanto region has the most bugs; even Arceus would be overwhelmed by the bugs there!

Therefore, what Lu Yuan hates most are trainers who talk about bonds but are actually secretly cheating.

Da Ye unleashes a powerful attack without taking damage, while A Du unleashes a destructive ray with no cooldown.

[Crimson: A combination of sunny weather and a sandstorm? Interesting.]

For most trainers, being able to master and skillfully utilize a weather team is already considered quite impressive.

Combining two different weather conditions perfectly is not as easy as it seems.

Perhaps only Chibana, who is known as the "Weather Child," could do that.

[Red: @Lu Yuan, what are your thoughts? (Pikachu poking.jpg)]

Wow, I didn't know that Chi Hong could use such cute emojis.

I thought he only knew how to...

But what's with all this insightful opinion? Isn't this just a typical Qingsha team?

[Lance: What advice could someone who uses dirty tricks possibly have? (Dragonite looks at him with disdain.jpg)]

As we all know, weather teams are incredibly powerful, with enhanced attributes and special abilities, making it impossible to use dirty tricks.

???

A method of provoking generals?

Very well, Dodo, you've successfully angered me. I'll show you how a tactical trainer plays with a weather team.

Lu Yuan went all out, typing furiously, and wrote a short essay of five thousand words in one go.

In an instant, everyone's screens were replaced by a long string of text.

The "essay" is quite long, and it details the strengths and weaknesses of the Qingsha team, their countermeasures, team composition, and so on.

[Lijia: What is Sunny Day Ultra-Fast Wide-Angle Lens Chlorophyll Bulbasaur Sleep Powder?]

[A-Ju: What does it mean for Tyranitar to unleash mindless attacks during a sandstorm using the Weakness Insurance?]

[Saria: Why did Team Sunny have to bring a Dusclops with Trick Room and Switcheroo?]

【Crimson: It's theoretically possible, I'll give it a try.】

After typing that sentence, Crimson Light logged off at lightning speed and dialed Green's number.

"Hey, did you see the post about Team Qingsha that Lu Yuan posted in the group?"

"Oh, I'm watching it now."

"Come and try."

"what?"

"Never mind, I'll just come to your place."

After hanging up the phone, Crimson immediately summoned Aerodactyl and rushed to the Viridian Gym.

Red has always been a man of action. He believes that only through personal experience and practice can one judge the merits of theoretical tactics.

This style of doing things makes him appear exceptionally decisive and confident when training Pokémon and dealing with battles.

Venusaur and Charizard happen to be his and Blue's trump cards, and Blue himself is a user of Trick Room, with Dusclops also having one at the Viridian Gym.

As for Tyranitar, we can just catch one at Mt. Silver.

......

The next day.

Lu Yuan and Xiao Lan took a plane and headed to the Chengdu region.

The two regions of Joto and Kanto are connected by a single mountain range, separated by the continuous foothills of the Shirogane Mountains.

The plane landed at the airport in Mankind.

A girl with two small pigtails sticking up and wearing a white round hat came to greet us.

Christal.

Chapter 68 A Jin's Surprise

Crystal, also known as Crystal, corresponds to the Gold, Silver, and Crystal game versions, respectively, along with Akin and Little Silver.

Professor Oak rated his talent as "Catcher," indicating that he has an exceptional talent for catching Pokémon.

He once captured the legendary Pokémon, Ho-Oh's three legendary beasts, and Suicune, the embodiment of the North Wind.

But compared to a certain unreasonable dog, it's far inferior.

They started practicing throwing Poké Balls at the age of five, mastered extensive knowledge of Poké Balls, knew which Poké Ball was best for catching which Pokémon, and were also familiar with the Pokémon's weaknesses, knowing which part of the Poké Ball to throw to increase the catch rate.

As for a certain Hao... well, that's history.

What puzzled Lu Yuan was that Kristall wasn't helping Professor Oak?

Kristal waved happily when she saw Lu Yuan and Xiao Lan, saying, "Mr. Lu Yuan, Senior Lan, over here!"

"Oh, it's Crystal." Little Blue, carrying a heavy backpack and two suitcases, trotted up to Crystal. "Where's Dr. Skywood?"
