Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

The twenty-sixth day of traveling to Sinnoh, cloudy.

After drifting on the sea for more than a week, Yu Hai finally arrived at Veil City. This luxury cruise trip was not bad, and his previously tense nerves finally relaxed.

After walking down the gangway of the luxury cruise ship, he stretched comfortably and walked towards the port for disembarking. When he arrived at the exit, he saw someone in the crowd holding a sign with the words "Yu Hai" written on it.

Seeing the sign, he smiled helplessly. He had already informed Lei Si when he arrived in Veil City today, so it was not surprising that someone came to pick up the boat.

He walked towards the sign and saw Lei Si below it. They had all changed a lot in the three years since they last met. They had grown taller and stronger, and their age had also increased. They were no longer the teenagers they used to be, but had become young men in their late teens.

"Long time no see, Lei Si," Yu Hai stretched out his right hand to greet Lei Si. After three years of not seeing each other, Lei Si had shed his former indifference and became much more enthusiastic.

"Yes, it's been three years since we last met at the Quartz Conference," Lei Si, wearing simple casual clothes today, shook hands with Yu Hai, and fell into memories of the past.

"Let's go, did you drive here?" Yu Hai turned his head to look at the roadside, wondering how they should leave the port.

"Yes," Lei Si took Yu Hai out of the port and came to a yellow car parked on the side of the road. He opened the door and let Yu Hai sit in the passenger seat. He then went to the driver's seat, started the car and left the port.

"Not bad, we're driving a small car now," Yu Hai smiled and looked at the interior of the car. It was all in the style of elves. There were also dolls of the Razorback elves under the windshield. The dolls of Elves and Garchomp were particularly eye-catching.

"Haha, stop laughing at me. I haven't seen you for three years. You must have become stronger now," Lei Si laughed and drove the car towards the suburbs of Veil City. His home was in the suburbs. The place was spacious and convenient for training Pokémon. Houses in the suburbs were the first choice of many trainers.

"What do you mean I'm stronger? You're not bad either," Yu Hai also praised the other party, and then teased: "Where's your brother Shinji?"

"My brother," Lei Si heard someone asking Shinji about this and couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "He's still the same, traveling outside and saying he wants to attend the Lily of the Valley Tournament. Are you here to attend the Lily of the Valley Tournament too..."

"Yeah, I was a bit bored over there, so I came here to play." When Yu Hai heard that Shinji was still the same as before, he didn't ask any more questions. Xiaozhi would take care of that naughty brother.

"Playing around? From the sound of your voice, you must be aiming for the championship," Lei Si smiled. Although he had only fought against Yu Hai a few times, he knew Yu Hai too well. He said it so easily, and he probably won the championship of the Suzuran Conference this time.

"What? You don't plan to participate? I've been waiting for this day for three years. At our age, there are fewer and fewer opportunities to participate in major competitions," Yu Hai looked at Lei Si with a smile. If the other party changed his career and stopped being a trainer and participating in competitions, he would only be left with regrets.

"How is it possible? I have also been waiting for this day for three years," Lei Si looked ahead with burning eyes. The trees on the roadside passed by quickly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

In order to defeat Yu Hai, he has been preparing for three years. He has been getting stronger day and night in these three years just to defeat Yu Hai in the arena. How could he give up this competition?

"Haha, then you must have miscalculated. You can't beat me," Yu Hai laughed. The two people were in sync with each other and knew what the other was thinking just by looking at each other.

It's not like they haven't communicated at all in the past three years. It's quite simple to communicate using chat apps on computers and mobile phones.

"Hey, wait and see. How do you know before we even fight?" Lei Si also laughed. He had been trying to find a way to restrain Yu Hai for three years.

“We’re almost home…”

As the two chatted along the way, they soon arrived at Lei Si's house, which was not far from the Curtain Gym in Curtain City. However, the owner of the Curtain Gym had been beaten to tears by Shinji and had lost confidence in the battle.

"The environment here is really nice," Yu Hai just got off the car and saw the green trees and large grassland plains here. He really knows how to choose a place to live.

After seeing enough of the scenery in the sea view rooms, it would be nice to live in this wilderness for a few days, just to relieve aesthetic fatigue.

"Brother, where have you been?" Shinji heard the sound of a car and went out to ask Lei Si why he went out so early in the morning.

Suddenly, his eyes caught sight of Yu Hai, who got out of the car with his elder brother Lei Si, the one who had defeated his elder brother three years ago and had been haunting him.

"Oh, aren't we home?" Yu Hai also saw Shinji, and couldn't help but raise his chin and whistled softly.

"Shinji? When did you come back without telling me?" Lei Si was also surprised to see Shinji. He didn't expect that his younger brother would come back.

"Hmph," Shinji didn't answer. Seeing his elder brother and Ukai walking towards him, talking and laughing, he suddenly snorted coldly and turned to walk towards home.

"Don't mind it, he's always like this," Lei Si couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment when he saw Shinji turn away and go back to the house. This younger brother didn't even say hello to the guests.

"Haha, it's okay, he's just a kid." How could Yu Hai be so serious with a kid? He was just a naughty little brother, and he had disciplined many of them.

"Come on, sit in the living room for a while. I'll make dinner and we can have a good chat in the evening," Lei Si invited Yu Hai to his home and asked Yu Hai to sit casually in the living room. Then he went to the kitchen.

Shinji was also sitting here. Seeing Ukai coming in, he could only turn his head away. However, Ukai was like a nightmare. The scene of defeating his elder brother kept replaying in his mind and could not be shaken off.

He realized that in order to get rid of the nightmare, he had to defeat it. After mustering up a little courage, he turned to look at Yu Hai and said to him: "I want to challenge you..."

"Challenge me?" Yu Hai paused as he was reaching for the fruit and turned to look at Shinji. What was the other party trying to do?

"Yes, I challenge you," Shinji secretly clenched his fists. He wanted to win back everything his elder brother lost. He would start by defeating this man. He wanted to prove how ridiculous and useless bonds were. His elder brother actually believed them and became weaker and weaker.

"Stop kidding, you can't even beat your brother, what can you use to fight me?" Yu Hai waved his hands helplessly and ignored Shinji's challenge. Now he didn't want to attack casually, especially bully children.

"I have defeated my brother, now I want to defeat you," Shinji raised his hand and held the elf tightly. He was underestimated again. He had to prove to the other party, to his elder brother, that bonds were useless.

"Is this true? You are so strong?" Yu Hai smiled and turned to look at Lei Si who came out of the kitchen. Lei Si also heard the conversation just now. He wanted to know how Lei Si lost. It was impossible for him to lose to this stinky younger brother unless he let the game go.

"Haha, sorry, Shinji is also a very strong trainer now," Lei Si could only smile awkwardly in the face of Yu Hai's eyes.

He really wanted to change Shinji's personality perception, but every time he defeated Shinji, it only made Shinji work harder and did not change his personality at all. He could only pretend to lose to Shinji, only to find that losing to Shinji was useless. Instead, because of the loss, Shinji became more convinced that bonds were useless.

"Oh, I see." Yu Hai seemed to have thought of something and understood Lei Si's good intentions. He immediately turned around and looked at Shinji, smiling, "I accept your challenge and let's go fight outside..."

"Very good," Shinji finally smiled. He could already see Ukai's miserable defeat and how regretful his elder brother was.

As the two of them came out of the door, Lei Si also turned off the fire in the kitchen and went outside to watch the battle between Yu Hai and the other elves.

He knew very well how powerful Yu Hai was and that it was impossible for Shinji to defeat him. Although they had not seen each other for three years, he had never stopped collecting information about Yu Hai. Even he was not sure of defeating Yu Hai, so Shinji would only be asking for trouble.

"Go, Shockmon," Shinji threw out his strongest Pokémon right away. He wanted to see if Ukai would send out Tyrannosaurus.

"Nice momentum," Yu Hai's eyes lit up when he saw the electric shock beast. This electric shock beast was well cultivated and reached the king level.

But why isn’t it a quasi-god? Does the other party want to keep a trump card? What an interesting little brother.

"Go, Blastoise," Yu Hai thought for a while and decided to send out Blastoise to fight. Blastoise would have nothing to do next anyway, and he could recover if he got injured.

He was out for fun this time, so how could he not bring his Blastoise? While crossing the vast ocean, he could even ride on his Blastoise to fish.

"Blustode? A water-type being suppressed by an electric-type?" Shinji's face darkened when he saw Blastoise, his fists stiffening as he muttered, "Tsk, am I being underestimated?"

"Electric Beast, pray for rain and thunder," Shinji felt looked down upon and directly gave the attack order to the Electric Beast.

"Blazoo, roll the iron wall," Yu Hai looked up at the sky. In just a moment, the sky darkened and a drizzle fell.

The opponent wanted to create the right time and place, and with the electric system of the Electabuzz, Blastoise had no chance of defeating him. Fortunately, this was his purpose.

"Kamei," Blastoise also noticed the rainy sky. A bright light appeared on its shell. After strengthening its shell with Iron Wall, it rolled towards the Electric Beast.

"Electromagus, use 100,000 volts on Blastoise," Shinji immediately changed his tactics when he saw Blastoise rolling over.

"Roar," the electric ball above the electric monster's head flashed with arcs, and orange-yellow arcs quickly struck towards the rolling Blastoise.

crackling-

Every orange-yellow lightning bolt hit Blastoise's shell and bounced off, unable to touch Blastoise at all, making the attack ineffective.

"It's really not that simple," Shinji gritted his teeth secretly, quickly thinking of a way to break the deadlock, and shouted to Shockmon: "Shockmon, hold on to the rolling Blastoise..."

"Roar," the electric monster stopped discharging electricity, raised its strong hands, and held tightly to the Blastoise that was rolling towards it.

At this moment, Shinji immediately shouted: "Electric shock monster, now is the time, use thunder..."

"Roar," the electric monster roared and launched a terrifying lightning attack at the rolling ball it was holding.

"Blustose, use high-speed spin..."

"Kamei," Blastoise felt the lightning attack and immediately spun rapidly, using the high-speed rotation to isolate all the lightning outside the shell.

"We have to stop the turtle shell." Shinji saw that Blastoise was spinning faster and faster, and the electric attack had no effect. He shouted to Shockmon again: "Shockmon, destroy the death ray..."

"What? Are you going to make it this big?" Yu Hai was stunned when he heard this move. Blastoise was still in the hands of Shockmon, and destroying the Death Ray at close range would only hurt the enemy and himself.

boom--

As a piercing white beam of light spurted out from the mouth of the electric monster, Blastoise was blown away, leaving a big hole on the ground, right in the backyard of Shinji's house. The lawn was blasted into potholes, which was difficult to repair.

When he found the Blastoise that was blown away, it had already fallen unconscious on the ground. Its shell was charred, but its limbs and head were not injured. It was probably knocked unconscious by the shock.

"You win," Ukai came back with Blastoise's Poké Ball and nonchalantly announced Shinji's victory, letting the kid have his way.

"Hmph, the bond is indeed fragile," Shinji sneered coldly after confirming his victory. His excitement did not show on his face. He turned and walked into the house with a cold expression.

"What?" Lei Si was still a little overwhelmed when he saw his brother win. He hurried down the stairs and asked Yu Hai, "Why are you..."

"What? Isn't this what you hinted at?" Yu Hai saw Lei Si hesitating. He thought Lei Si asked him to lose on purpose so that Shinji would continue to swell up, and then he would change his personality after suffering a crushing defeat at the Lily of the Valley Tournament.

"What? I hinted at it?" Lei Si was completely dumbfounded. When he heard that it was his own hint, he suddenly thought to himself that something was wrong. When did he hint at it?

Yu Hai seemed to have misunderstood something. It would be great if this battle could change his brother's character. Unexpectedly, Yu Hai lost instead. Wouldn't his brother be even more dismissive of bonds?

"Actually, you can have Blastoise use Earthquake..."

"Earthquake? Why do I need an earthquake? If your house collapses, I have to pay to rebuild it," Yu Hai curled his lips helplessly. He didn't want to discipline this prickly and stinky brother, and he didn't want to spend money to repair the house and the grass. Why bother himself?

"Haha, okay," Lei Si could only use an awkward laugh to ease the embarrassment. Looking at his brother with a cold face, it was really a headache. He had no way to deal with his brother's personality, so he could only find Yu Hai to discuss it later.

"Your brother's problem is more serious than yours. If you want to turn it around, you have to take drastic measures. Maybe there's hope at the Lily of the Valley Conference," Ukai saw that Lei Si had been staring at Shinji, so he simply pointed a way out for this brother-obsessed man.

No matter what familiar people say, it's useless. At this time, only outsiders can wake up Shinji's naughty brother and let him know that bonds are useful, especially after he was defeated by Satoshi who kept talking about bonds.

"This is the only way," Lei Si sighed helplessly and went back to the kitchen to cook dinner. He also took some time to think about who could change his brother's personality.

Yu Hai obviously couldn't do it, so he invited Yu Hai to be his guest just to see if Yu Hai could change his brother's character. Unfortunately, Yu Hai had no such idea, maybe he thought it was troublesome!

Just like himself back then, he was defeated by the other party before deciding to try out the bond that the other party mentioned. What exactly was it? After trying the bond, he gained a lot.

Where is the trainer who just woke up his brother?

How would he find such a trainer?

As dinner was cooking, he kept thinking about this question, but he didn't know that a passionate young man was heading to Veil City to challenge the Veil Gym.

The trainer he wanted, Shinji's rival in the Suzuran Tournament, would be arriving soon.
